MONSTER

CHAPTER 101 - RED-CLOTHED WOMAN

The structure of this resort gave me the feeling of a manor house, the kind you see on television in the French Middle Ages.

Old Tao was in front, introducing Old Lu to the scale of the villa and its location. Lin Zuishuang and Chu Liangxing were taking pictures along the way, while I was sizing up the place.

It had to be said that the scale of this place didn't seem that big from the outside, but after entering, they realized that it was a completely different world.

Look at these pieces of green belt that have been trimmed by the horticultural master, look at the marble carving, look at the blue stone under my feet, and there are a lot of things that are very valuable even though I can't call them by name.

I have to say, if it weren't for Old Lu's help, I probably wouldn't have been able to come to this kind of place in my entire life. In my mind, those who can come here and have fun are all rich people who can burn their money.

Entering a rather large room, good man, the floor is mahogany, the walls are hung with all kinds of oil paintings that I can't understand but look very artistic, probably also very valuable, but they were all put down here for decoration, in the middle of the hall is a statue of a broken arm Venus, half naked kind of thing.

If it's an oil painting or a stone sculpture, then it's f * cking art. Although I didn't understand the logic behind it, it doesn't stop me from knowing that this thing is very valuable. I even had thoughts of sneakily taking it away.

Alright, everyone has evil thoughts. The main point is whether I can control myself. I shift my gaze and look at the chandelier that is 2 meters wide unfurling on top of my head. This isn't a joke, it would probably cost a few thousand yuan.

It can be said that there really is no one in my heart. Basically, I feel like estimating the price of everything I see and then comparing it with my living expenses. Then, I would be praising how valuable it is.

From the conversation between Old Tao and Old Lu, I found out that this was actually a place for the guests to rest and could also be understood as a hotel, but of course, the fun wasn't here. When the time came, the guests could choose to treat the driver of the hotel or to take a taxi, or they could also have a tour guide, and the guests could choose to take or not take it with them.

Of course, there was a prerequisite for all of this, and that was that you had to have money.

Elder Tao also told the front desk to ask for a good reception for Old Lu and us. The front desk clerk was clearly stunned, he probably didn't understand why a bunch of people who looked even younger than him would be personally received by Elder Tao.

After Tao Lao left, we first opened four rooms to put our things away, then ate something, while Old Lu began to check the nearest scenic spot on his cell phone.

Old Lu scratched his head and told us that whether it was the Soul Burying Mountain or the Red Flower Temple, they were both quite far from us. From here, it would take at least half a day to get there.

Chu Xingxing speechlessly said, look at the closest one, who said that they had to go there?

Old Lu suddenly slapped his thigh and said, Hehe, this place called the Double Flying Edge, we'll be able to get there within an hour.

The hotel here should be one of the businesses owned by this company. Apart from that, I really can't think of a better reason to explain how rich this kind of dragon service is. Since there's such a big tourist development, this county should have been expanded a long time ago, but why is it still so big?

Forget it, this isn't something I should be concerned about. What I should be concerned about right now is how to enjoy myself later on.

After an hour, we arrived at the Twin Flying Cliff. The driver told us quite professionally that the Twin Flying Cliff was said to be the place where the red flower and the top scholar eloped. As the saying goes, Twin Flying Cliff is the origin of the name of the Twin Flying Cliff.

Flights On Wings?

I couldn't help but think of the story the driver didn't tell when he arrived. Could it be that Red Flower and the Minister Yuan were together in the end? Otherwise, why would there be a reason for the Double Flying Cliff?

Of course, when the driver took us back to our destination, I couldn't get him to tell me a story.

The four of us stood at the foot of the mountain, looking up at a huge rock protruding from the middle of the mountain. That should be the Double Flying Cliff, and as I looked at that rock, I felt as if it could fall at any moment.

Old Lu lit a cigarette and gloomily said to me, This is the Double Flying Cliff. It seems like even the heavens are blessing me. Little Cheng, if you don't have a partner, you should take this opportunity to develop yourself. Isn't that Chu Liangxing pretty?

I'm stupid to look at it. Ye Zichen looked at Old Lu and ignored him, then walked forward.

Old Lu nagged behind me, Am I wrong? You are like this. If you don't have a partner, why don't you hurry up. When you're old, how are you going to find one?

I wanted to strangle him, I swear, but I resisted. After all, if I strangled him, the trip would be over.

Because it's a holiday season, there aren't many people here. Occasionally, there are one or two people who are about the same age as us, probably people who have similar thoughts to us would come here to play and wait for school to start.

This really gave me a sense of being able to take care of the entire place, including a scenic spot, it was really f * cking cool.

The mountain was quite high, and as we walked we played. It took us nearly an hour to reach the Double Flying Cliffs.

At this moment, there was a couple taking photos together. It seemed like they both wanted to benefit from the good fortune here, so they both stayed together.

I saw the hesitation on Old Lu's face, and I knew that he wanted to invite Lin Zuibiao to take a picture of her, but he was afraid that Lin Zuibiao would refuse.

I walked over to him and said, Come on, why are you scared? If you're a man, then don't be scared. I'll help you.

Old Lu turned his head and looked at me gratefully before nodding his head vigorously. He walked up to Lin Zuibiang and said, Can we take a photo together? Leave it as a souvenir.

There was a saying in the military: only when the enemy was attacked but the enemy was not prepared could a surprise attack be won!

I'll take a picture of you guys. I'm called the Prince of Chengdu. We'll take a picture together later as a souvenir.

Lin Zuiyue could not resist anymore. Embarrassed, she took a photo with Old Lu leaning against the stone tablet with the words Double Flying Cliffs engraved on it. To avoid embarrassment, I took another photo with Chu Fanxing and Lin Zuiyue.

Who would have thought that Chu Lianxing would insist on letting me take those photos? Helpless, I intentionally or unintentionally blocked the words Double Flying Cliff when I took those photos.

Old Lu secretly gave me a thumbs up, because he knew that this was how things were going to be in the future.

I stood at the edge of the Double Flying Cliff and looked down. My scalp went numb for a moment. If I fell down, I would probably die a horrible death.

There are still words here. Chu Tianxin's surprised voice sounded.

When we looked back, we saw many small words on the back of the tablet. It was actually a piece of story about a red flower.

The Emperor, Long Yan, was furious and immediately gave the order to kill him. The Minister then found Hong Hua and together with her, they fled to this place and were forced to give their lives here.

However, the two of them did not die. In the end, they turned into a pair of Winged Birds that flew out of this place. This was what the Winged Birds meant by that.

This was the end of the red flower and the top scholar. It was a good ending, I thought, though there might have been a mythical quality to it in the end, and perhaps they had really fallen off a cliff and died. The later generations, in order to remember this lovers, had invented the second half of the story about the winged birds, but who knew?

Just as we were about to leave, another person slowly walked up the stairs. It was also a woman, and she seemed to be two or three years older than me.

The disabled person meant that her right arm was empty. Obviously, it was broken. The non-mainstream person meant that there was actually a tear mark on her eye. It was red. Perhaps he felt that he looked very cool.

She wore very little, and her red boots looked very eye-catching in this kind of environment. She wore black jeans, her long hair hanging down casually, and held a sword in her left hand … A sword?

I'm dizzy. Not only is this a non-mainstream individual, he is also a Cosplay Dare. How can a normal person hold a sword in his hand?

It was as if he didn't see the four of us as he slowly walked towards the stone monument not too far away. However, my heart started to thump. The aura emitted by this girl didn't seem like it was something that could be emitted by either Cosplay or the mainstream.

I don't know why, but the moment he got close, Old Lu and I somehow gave her a spot. It seemed like a instinctive reaction, but at the same time, it also felt like a mystery to me.

I saw her gently place her hand on the stone tablet. I didn't know what she was doing, but Old Lu curiously walked over to her and said, Hey, girl, you …

How dare you!

Before Old Lu could finish speaking, the woman suddenly turned around and looked at Old Lu and said softly. However, in an instant, a gust of air emanated from her body. I leaned close to Old Lu and was immediately blown back a few steps.

As if sensing something, Lin Zuishuang and Chu Liangxing ran over all of a sudden to ask us what was wrong.

Old Lu and I looked at each other, and we both saw fear in each other's eyes! That was qi just now! And the flow was so terrifying! They're not even on the same level as us. Damn, it scared me to death. I feel like if she had tried to kill us just now, we would have already lost our lives.

You all dare to call me a lonely lady, and even interrupted my thoughts. You all don't want to live anymore!

The woman in red's extremely cold voice entered Old Lu and I's ears.

CHAPTER 102 - LACRIMAL LAKE

I swear, this is the first time I've seen such a dramatic scene. To think that I would run into such a ferocious girl when I was out for fun … This isn't a female ghost, the anger on her head is even greater than mine. How could it be a female ghost?

Did I meet a deity? Did the deity also come out to travel? Hell, that's impossible.

Even though Old Lu and I were scared out of our wits, I could still clearly hear the woman's words. She called me and Old Lu you and called herself Gu, and she even had a sword in her hand. It was an ancient princess and a chivalrous hero. However, no one had ever heard of such a thing.

I thought a lot about it the moment my leg started to move, but in the end, I decided to temporarily categorize this woman as an unknown creature. Fuck, this is too fierce, it's the same as pressing me down on the ground wherever I am, because this woman and everything else far surpasses me, it's hard for me to tell which one is more powerful or this one is better, I can't afford to offend her anyways.

That woman obviously wasn't planning on letting Old Lu and I off just like that. She was just going to continue asking the two of us, 'Do you admit your wrongs?'

At this time, Old Lu and I just nodded. It's better to keep our lives first. As for what went wrong with Old Lu and I, we'll think about it later.

When she saw me and Old Lu nod our heads as we finally withdrew the pressure that almost made us prostrate on the ground, I finally understood. It must be because I didn't look at the Chronicles that I was out of luck again.

The woman's gaze towards me and Old Lu was ice-cold. It was so cold that when we looked at each other, I felt an urge to kneel and kowtow. I didn't understand what was going on with me, but in front of this girl, I couldn't even muster the slightest bit of resistance.

Old Lu was the same as me, he didn't have any intention of resisting at all. He stuttered for a long time before saying, Dare … May I ask who the female hero is... Would you like to leave your name? "

I actually wanted to ask her this question, although I didn't dare to say it out loud, but I could feel that this girl isn't a bloodthirsty person. Otherwise, Old Lu and I wouldn't have been able to survive. He had the capital even if he forced himself to do so.

This woman must have also felt that Old Lu and I didn't have a single temper anymore, so she said word by word to Old Lu and I, "Gu, he is the World Sword Sovereign. You should submit and remember his name, Li Jian Yi.

The last word sent chills down my spine, I felt that if I said the words Li Jian — she would immediately kill me. Although I didn't want to admit it because she was a woman, as a man I had no choice but to admit it, this woman gave me the same feeling as a king with authority. As a science student, I really couldn't find a better adjective to describe her.

Old Lu stammered, Then why don't we call you …

The woman glanced at Old Lu from the corner of her eyes and said, Your Highness.

F * ck, I'm really feeling unbalanced, but there's nothing I can do. I almost shouted in unison with Old Lu, Your Highness.

This script shouldn't be played out like this. I am a f * * king storyteller, I am the f * * king main character! After being abused repeatedly by others and then being abused by ghosts, who the hell did I offend? I came out to play and even said that I met such a monster which made me address her as' Your Highness'. The most tragic protagonist in this world should be me.

She walked up to Old Lu and me and said, Being alone is fated.

After saying that, he patted Old Lu and I on the left shoulder. Immediately, I felt very cold, as if something had drilled into my arm.

Old Lu and I looked at each other, not knowing what it was. Li Jian turned his back to us and explained, If it's a life-saving item, it will save your lives at a critical moment. Since you guys are not ordinary people, you two should help out with the Chinese defense line in the near future.

As I said that, that woman left, leaving me and Old Lu confused.

Do you understand what she said? Old Lu asked me.

I said, How the fuck should I know!

At the side, Lin ZuiShuang and Chu Tianxin asked us in confusion. Where was that woman?

Old Lu and I looked at each other in confusion. I immediately asked Chu Xingxing, what did you just see?

Chu Xingxing weirdly shook his head and said, I just remembered that you and Lu Xingfeng seemed to have been pushed by that woman a while ago, and then they didn't remember anything.

Lin Zuiyue immediately interjected and said the same thing to her. I slapped my thigh and said, I'll go, I'll go too. I don't seem to remember anything just now.

Old Lu looked at me strangely. It was only after I tried my best to roll my eyes that Old Lu finally understood. He immediately agreed with me and said that he couldn't remember either.

A strange atmosphere immediately enveloped both Lin Zuibiao and Chu Zhaoxing. Old Lu and I, on the other hand, were not only rejoicing, but also puzzled.

What kind of background did that woman have? She could even erase a person's memories! This can't f * cking be considered a human.

Feeling that it might be a little haunted here, Lin Zuibang and Chu Fanxin were afraid to go back. Old Lu and I naturally had no intention of staying any longer after this incident, so we started to walk down the mountain, preparing to return home.

When I returned to the hotel in the afternoon, Old Lu immediately snuck into my room and asked me if I could guess the background of that woman.

If we divide this world into ten levels, and the higher the level we are in, the more we will know. And if we are on the fifth level, then even if we pull our necks as long as giraffes, we can only barely reach the sixth level. If you want me to guess what the eighth or tenth level of the seventh level is, I wouldn't be able to come up with anything even if I wanted to.

Old Lu seemed to understand what I was saying and agreed with me. Based on what you're saying, we can't even touch the other party's level. What should we do then?

I said, what do I do? To make himself more powerful, of course. Come on, you're awesome. After forcing nature to see even more, there was a poem that went: One would be able to see the peak of a mountain! Therefore, we should just honestly cultivate and improve ourselves right now.

Old Lu nodded and then asked me, Oh yeah, when she patted me on the shoulder just now, I felt something go into my left arm. Did you?

No matter what, we did not lose two taels of meat today. Furthermore, with the status and strength of that prince, there is probably no need for him to deceive us little shrimps. So, it's best if we just take advantage of this fortuitous encounter.

Old Lu asked doubtfully, Identity? What identity? Did she tell you?

I bitterly smiled and said that she had already said that her name was Li Jianyi and that she was the current Sword Master. We all called her 'Your Highness'. Sigh, she is under the roof. How could I not lower my head?

I'm not lying. Actually, she just came out. I thought it was the red flower girl from the story. Old Lu said to me with a vulgar smile.

So Old Lu and I sighed again, and then we began to plan where we would go tomorrow.

The next day, Old Lu directly identified the Teardrop Lake, so the four of us majestically drove to the Teardrop Lake.

This time, we had a good foresight. In advance, we asked the driver if there was anything he could say about the Lake of Tears.

This driver was quite young, and didn't seem to like talking. When we asked, he couldn't help but answer, so he simply explained to us the legend of Teardrop Lake:

It was said that Red Flower had been rescued by the mountain god after her death. She had missed her top scholar here, and her tears had started to fall from the depths of her heart. The tears had condensed into a lake here, this lake of tears.

This time, the ones who were the least calm were Lin Zuibiao and Chu Liangxing. After the driver finished his sentence, Chu Liangxing said in shock, What? The top scholar died? How did he die? Didn't they become a comparison between the Winged Birds that are always together? "

The driver looked at the front and said calmly, The reason for the story is because the storyteller can make it up as he pleases.

With a single sentence, he sealed Lin Zuibiao who wanted to exclaim in admiration. However, Lin Zuibiao could not help but let out a long sigh.

These words make sense. In fact, this chauffeur has already told us that there are many versions of the story about the Red Flower Woman. The Double Flying Cliff is just one of them, and the Lake of Tears here is just one of many versions.

I was wondering if every scene was a story about a woman with red flowers. In that case, if the obsessive-compulsive disorder patient were to come here, wouldn't it mean that he would have to take a corner of every scenic spot?

Is it possible that every scenic spot is only part of the story of the Red Flower Woman? Only after listening to all the stories would they know the ending of the red flower woman. Was she dead or alive? Was he with the top scholar?

In the end, I have to admit that the people who developed this kind of attraction were very smart, very smart, using people's curiosity to stimulate consumption and drive the economy.

In any case, I was provoked because I was already a bit curious to know what the rest of the story was like, or how many versions it contained, and maybe I could even sell it later on when I go back and write a short ghost story or an ancient romance.

The driver didn't like to talk, the car sped along for three hours before arriving at the Lake of Tears. As the journey was long, it was impossible for the driver to return. He found a place to rest and told us to call him if there was anything we needed.

CHAPTER 103 - BURIED SOUL MOUNTAIN

This lake was really the shape of a teardrop, I don't know if it was purposely built like this or if it was originally built like this. In any case, I felt that it was man-made, but from the legends, I heard that it was naturally formed.

Old Lu and Lin Zuidi went to take pictures again. I leaned on the railing by myself and looked at the calm surface of the lake, sighing over the beauty of this place.

Although I didn't see the red flowers that filled the mountains, I felt that the scenery wasn't too bad. Today's weather was pretty good, there was a sun, and although there wasn't much temperature, it was still a scene of blue skies and white clouds.

The water in the lake is very clear, the entire sky and clouds are reflected in the lake, and there are even wisps of mist rising from the surface of the lake, like a fairyland. I don't know if I was mistaken, but why do I feel that there are buildings in the midst of the mist?

There was a poem: The sunset and the lonely fly together, the autumn water is the same, although the time is wrong, but I think I can change it, the so-called: fog and the morning light fly together, the lake water is the same.

When I thought about it, I felt that the writing was pretty good. Unconsciously, a wretched smile appeared on my face. Looks like I am not only a philosopher, but also a natural poet.

Old Lu appeared beside me at some point, slapping his lips as he said, Little Cheng, you can even give me such a vulgar smile in the face of such a beautiful scenery. Don't you feel a little ashamed in your heart?

I also felt that my smile just now was rather vulgar. Old Lu's words made me feel a little awkward, but how could I admit to being so stubborn? Of course not, so I told him, what do you know, I just thought of the famous poem by the Russian poet Ran Junde and De Cheng, and that's why I let out a knowing smile. Such a noble smile can even be called vulgar, I really have to say that it's really scary to have no culture.

Old Lu asked me what kind of poem it was. Otherwise, why would you say it out loud for me to listen to?

The mist and the morning light fly at the same time, and the water in the lake is the same color as the sky.

To my surprise, Old Lu smiled at me and said, Little Cheng, fuck you. I graduated from junior high school after all. It's not like I haven't studied before. We were foolish back then. Since you forced the class teacher to force our original Tang Sijie, your father will remember your big brother, Wang Bo. Do you think you don't have some face? Do you think your father doesn't know that 'the sunset and the lonely ambition fly together, the autumn and the water grow together'?"

To be honest, I really didn't expect Old Lu to have ink in his stomach. Coincidentally, the two girls also came over. I immediately hugged Old Lu and said, Ah hehe, this … This is really pretty.

Old Lu also saw the two of them and stealthily gave me a middle finger, not mentioning this matter anymore.

Now that I think about it, this incident could be said to be one of the biggest blemishes in my life. God damn, how embarrassing, getting laughed at by Old Lu, and it's even about literature. Who would have known that a person who dropped out of high school would actually know about the early Tang Sijie.

Chu Tianxin and Lin Zuixing giggled and said that there was also a stone tablet on the side, and a short story was also written on it, asking us if we wanted to take a look.

I was interested, of course, so I went over and saw another story, but it was similar to what the chauffeur who had brought us here had said, namely, that the red flower had been brought here after the death of the top scholar, and that the mountain god had rescued her, and that the tears left behind by the sad red flower had gradually condensed into this lake of tears.

Old Lu lamented, how long would it take for him to cry?

I'm dizzy, why do you care about this? People have already told me that the story about the red flower is mythical.

Actually, I'm just worried that another big sister in red will come out of nowhere and ask us to kneel down and call her your highness, but obviously I'm overthinking it.

Just as we were about to leave, another group of people walked past us. From their conversation, I heard that there seemed to be a forest of peach blossoms in front of us, so naturally, I had to ask the two ladies for their opinion on this matter. I thought to myself, Why are you looking at peach blossoms? How good would it be if I went back to rest?

So we also continued to walk forward, planning to take a look at the Peach Blossom Forest. The few people in front walked quite quickly, so we couldn't see them anymore.

At the beginning of March, it should be the beginning of the peach blossoms. It's also good to take a look, I comforted myself in my heart.

After about half an hour of walking, we came upon a low area that just happened to be on the edge of the lake, which was the Peach Blossom Forest.

Lin Zuishuang and Chu Liangxing had already revealed signs of excitement as they jogged past. However, I still couldn't quite put my finger on it, as I didn't know the specific reason.

When Old Lu was about to follow me over, I grabbed him and said, Did you notice anything strange about this place?

Old Lu said to me in all seriousness, there is.

I asked him. What's different?

Old Lu yawned and said, You.

I was immediately speechless. Old Lu continued to tell me, Little Cheng, it's not that I'm talking about you, we're just here to play. Why are you always so nervous?

Suddenly, I felt that what Old Lu said was quite reasonable, but I didn't know why, but I really didn't have anything to do. I really felt that the environment here was a little strange, but looking at Old Lu's aggrieved expression, I didn't continue speaking and nodded before quickly following him to the peach blossom forest. In my heart, I could only hope that it was just my imagination.

After getting tired from running with them, I sat in a stone pavilion to rest. Nothing really happened, as though it was really my imagination just now. I couldn't help but curse myself for being crazy.

Right now, it was the end of February and the beginning of March. The peach blossoms had not fully bloomed yet, and most of them were in the state of the bud.

It was noon, the mist and other things had dispersed. The entire lake seemed crystal clear, like a crystal mirror. Looking at such a beautiful scene, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Fortunately, I didn't return home just now, otherwise, it would have been a great pity to miss out on such a beautiful scenery.

I got Old Lu to take a few proper pictures for me and left myself in this beautiful scenery. Although I was smiling awkwardly, the scenery was indeed pretty. I decided to wash these pictures out and keep them after I got back.

Actually, this is pretty good. I feel that ever since I saw a ghost, I have become completely crazy. If this goes on, I will become a lunatic sooner or later.

It wasn't until the afternoon that we returned to the hotel. There were still two days left until the evening with Old Lu, so we didn't plan on looking for any other spots, but instead went to the Spirit Burying Mountain and the Red Flower Temple. Since we said that these two spots were Red Flower Town's most famous spots, there was naturally a reason for it. Judging by the name, could it be that Red Flower was also dead in the end?

And then, when people lamented the sad love story of the red flower and the young man, they built a temple just for the red flower to commemorate her?

Forget it, I can't figure out the reason why. I'll just go and take a look tomorrow.

However, I also decided not to ask about the story of the driver in the car the next day. It would be more exciting if I went there myself, and according to the previous pattern, I estimated that the Buried Soul Mountain and the Red Flower Temple would also have their own monolith and story, although I wasn't sure if it was connected together.

Old Lu was obviously very excited and didn't go back to his room to sleep. She just sat in my room and looked at the photos of him and Lin Zuibiao with a silly smile on her face. Looking at her expression, even though I was teasing him on the surface, I was actually quite envious of her.

Based on the triggering conditions of five evils and three defects, as long as Old Lu and Lin Zuiji established a relationship, it would most likely come true.

I can't afford to gamble, even if it's a 1/8th probability. Firstly, I don't want her to get involved in this world of ghosts and gods, but I came here afraid, afraid of how this' independence 'of mine would affect him. If I really hurt her, I would definitely regret it for the rest of my life.

In the past, he had been worried about his life being short of money. Now, it seemed that whether it was money or money, both were making people laugh and cry. However, the word lone made people laugh and cry.

It seems like I'm really focused on loneliness now. If it's the love knot in the TV, maybe there's some way to overcome the five evils and three defects. Now where does the real world come from to break the five evils and three evils?

Lying on the bed, my mind was in a mess. I fell asleep in a daze. I didn't know when Old Lu would leave my room.

I think it was because I was tired from playing the day before and slept until eight or nine the next day. Today, my destination was the Buried Soul Mountain, which sounds very exciting, so I couldn't wait to know the next part of the story.

Old Lu turned around on the passenger seat and mysteriously said to us, Buried Soul Mountain, hearing this name sounds like there's a ghost. Why don't we see if there are any ghosts later?

Lin Zuishuang and Chu Fangxing spat at Old Lu in unison, but I just smiled and didn't say anything.

But why do I feel like Old Lu is hinting at me? However, with Old Lu's intellect, I still felt that it wasn't possible. It was probably because I had started to get nervous again.

After another two hours of driving, I arrived at Buried Soul Mountain. After I got off the car, I looked at the mountain that was towering into the sky and thought to myself, It's so tiring to climb this mountain.

But how would I have known about this trip? I almost couldn't get down!

CHAPTER 104 - LABYRINTH

Not long after we walked forward, we saw a worker wearing environmental protection clothing. The worker kindly told us that it would rain at Buried Soul Mountain today and that we should go early to come back. It couldn't avoid the rain.

He looked at the blue sky and white clouds and the sun and thought, Rain? Impossible! Even the weather forecast showed a clear day, so although we thanked the kind worker, it was clear that we didn't take his words seriously.

What we didn't expect was that the Buried Soul Mountain was even harder to walk on than the Double Fly Cliff and the Lake of Tears. If it was the main road in front of us, then it would be a wooden bridge.

It didn't take long for the four of us to get tired. Old Lu and I were still fine since we were both male, but Lin Zuibiao and Chu Fangxing were already done, so we had to rest for a while every time we walked. Old Lu almost carried Old Lu when he looked at Lin Zuibiao.

After nearly an hour, we hadn't even traveled a third of the way there. However, we finally saw the stone tablet with the Spirit Burying Mountain engraved on it. It was just as I had guessed, there was also a short paragraph of words on the back of the stone tablet that briefly described the Spirit Burying Mountain.

Finally, the red flower found the source of everything, the source of all the deaths, and that was this world. Everyone in this world was rebutting the fact that the two of them were together, and the kind-hearted red flower gradually lost her mind due to hatred. She hated this world, hated everything in this world.

So Red Flower wanted to die, she wanted to turn into a ghost and take revenge on those who had hurt her. The mountain god appeared in time to suppress her evil side, causing her to wake up, and when she woke up, she was full of regret, and she begged the mountain god to help her.

The mountain god knew that the saffron was a poor man, so he asked the saffron to water the flowers on the mountain with his own blood. When the flowers on the mountain were dyed red by the blood of the saffron, it meant that the saffron had moved the heavens, and the mountain god would save them.

The red flower cut her palm with tears. According to the Mountain God's words, she used her own blood to water the flowers that were spread all over the mountain.

Afterwards, Red Flower died. The mountain god gathered Red Flower's soul, removing the evil side and suppressing it in the mountain. The Red Flower's real soul had disappeared without a trace.

This was the history of the Buried Soul Mountain. It said that the colorful flowers that covered the mountains after the death of the red flower had all turned red, just like when she was born. So these flowers were named after the red flower and were called the red flower.

Strangely enough, the name of the red flower was taken from the red flowers that had bloomed in the mountains when she was born, and then the names of the red flowers came from her own name, the red flower, at the time of her death.

As the saying goes, the beginning and the end are all within.

I've always said that women are emotional creatures, but I didn't believe it before, but this time I really believed it. After reading this story, Lin Zuibiao's eyes were actually watery. He wiped away his tears while saying that it was too touching.

I was speechless. Even if it's touching, there's no need for you to be so obvious, right?

Seeing that Lin Zuiyue was crying, Old Lu quickly took out a tissue and passed it over to her like a servant.

I asked Old Lu, why are your eyes also filled with tears?

Old Lu said, Red Flower died just like that, it's really too tragic, don't you think this story is very touching?

Concussive! I finally understood that it was due to Lin Zuibiao and Old Lu having big nerves, so I directly entered into the plot of this story.

Chu Zhaoxing, after all, is a woman who is as strong as a boy, so I guess she didn't feel anything. Her eyes were full of speechlessness when she looked at me, but there was also helplessness in my eyes.

The surrounding trees were all trimmed and shaped like this, so it was quite an ornamental sight.

But as we walked on, the traces of manmade men became weaker and weaker, until finally I began to wonder if I was really playing around in the scenic area.

As they gradually entered the forest and approached the top of the mountain, the temperature of the surrounding area became colder and colder.

Just when I was about to go back when I couldn't make a suggestion, it was as if Chu Zhaoxing had discovered a new world, and suddenly ran forward excitedly.

We looked at each other and quickly followed. When we arrived at the end of the road, we saw that there was no road ahead of us in the deeper woods. Besides, there was also a stone tablet next to us.

Looking at the dense and eerie forest, we finally decided to explore and look ahead after some discussion.

Old Lu and I were both in favor of going back, but Lin Zunshuang and Chu Liangxing told Old Lu and me with quite a bit of contempt, 'As men, are you afraid?' Neither of us girls are afraid.

I'm dizzy! What kind of logic is this? F * cking god, this is for your safety, okay? There's no more road ahead, what if I trip somewhere, then Old Lu and I will carry you two back.

And I can't figure out what these two are thinking, really think of myself as the main character of the TV series, they said not to go, go, can have a fortuitous encounter.

It had taken us more than two hours to reach this place. The sun had already disappeared, and the weather was overcast; who knew if it would really rain like the workers just said. If it really did rain, it would be extremely troublesome to get out of here.

However, Old Lu and I were naive again. We actually tried to reason with a weird creature like a woman, so the result was obvious. We would definitely lose.

Even though it wasn't raining, as the forest was filled with weeds and thistles, we slowed down. Old Lu led the way in front while I cut off the rear.

By way of direction, they were going where they thought it was interesting. These two ladies were obviously from the city, and were curious about everything, sometimes where they wanted to go, sometimes here, and as soon as we walked over I realized that we couldn't seem to find the way we came from.

At this time, Old Lu was leading the way happily. After all, Lin ZuiShuang was pointing him in the right direction at all times, and he was running quite happily in the front.

As I felt the coolness around me, the inexplicable tension in my heart rose again, as if every time I arrived at a new place I would have the same feeling, as if a certain place would suddenly erupt with something very fierce.

By the time the three of them reacted, we were already in a daze. Fuck, we got lost! We can't go back!

I used to laugh when I saw people getting lost in the woods on TV and call them stupid. Now that this has happened to me, I feel foolish. Forced, because all of this is the same, who knows where to go.

Besides, the trees in this old forest cover the sky and the sun, so the phone can't be reached. After walking for so long, we are sure to be very close to the top of the mountain, so we can only slowly walk up the mountain, hoping that there will be a signal for us to make a call when we arrive at the top.

At this point, Lin Zuishuang and Chu Liangxing had also realized the seriousness of the situation and no longer had any intention to play. They kept blaming themselves all the way.

Old Lu comforted them by saying, it's fine, it's not like we'll die. We both grew up in the countryside, so we still know some wild vegetables. If we can't get out in a short while, we can still get something to eat.

Before Old Lu could finish his sentence, there was suddenly a muffled thundering sound in the sky. Damn, it's going to rain!

I looked gloomily at Old Lu, thinking to myself, this crow's beak, what do you mean not good, you have to say rain, but I also know that I can't blame Old Lu for this. After all, before we went up the mountain, the worker told us to rain, but we didn't listen.

In fact, even if it didn't rain, it would still be hard to implement the method, because even though I grew up in the countryside, I still don't know what wild vegetables are. After all, even though I grew up in a poor village, I wasn't poor to the point that I needed to dig up wild vegetables to eat. Basically, every household in the village is self-sufficient.

Of course, I didn't say it was a blow to Old Lu.

Fortunately, after the thunderstorm, the raindrops didn't immediately fall, but the sky became darker and darker. The previously sunny weather had already disappeared, and it was obvious that the heavens were brewing a torrential downpour.

In order to save time, we all went straight up the mountain, thinking that we could get there faster, but obviously the road was longer than we thought.

Seeing that the rain was about to fall, Lin ZuiShuang and Chu Tianxing also kept on saying that they were tired, but there was no other way. Tired had to leave, because once the rain started, it was not a question of whether or not they could leave.

After all, if the mud got stuck in the water, it would become mud. If his feet slipped on this hillside, the consequences would be severe.

For the sake of safety, Old Lu and I were at the front of the group, dragging Chu Zhaoxing and Lin Zuibi with us as we climbed up the mountain.

Hey, we're here! Old Lu's surprised voice was heard. Light was coming from above the mountain. It seemed like there were no trees growing on the mountaintop.

I let out a long breath and pulled with my life on the line. I pulled Chu Zhaoxing out of the last barrier.

Old Lu excitedly said, I'm not going to die. Let's go, let's make a call.

CHAPTER 105 - PHANTOM CONCEAL STATUE

By the time the four of us reached the top of the mountain, we were completely stunned, because I really didn't expect it to be like this.

It wasn't just me, Old Lu, Lin Zunshuang, and Chu Liangxing who were stunned. They didn't expect the scene above to be like this.

I took in a deep breath before exhaling heavily. It was said that there must have been a demon when something abnormal happened. At this moment, other than the shock I felt when I first saw all of this, I was worried as the situation was getting stranger and stranger.

The top of the mountain was filled with blooming red flowers, which seemed to be spreading to every corner of the mountain. They were very beautiful, and even a little demonic, because they were so red that I almost felt as if they were all made of blood.

Old Lu reacted at this moment and whispered to me, Little Cheng, this situation isn't right. Why are there so many flowers blooming on the mountaintop?

I knew that Old Lu had already noticed that there was something wrong with this place, but neither of us could tell what was wrong.

There were surprisingly no trees growing on the mountaintop, so when we looked up, we could see the dark sky. The thick dark clouds seemed to have accumulated to the limit, as if the rain could fall at any time.

However, tragedy had happened. There was no signal from the top of the mountain. Was it because the clouds in the sky were too thick? F * ck, they're going to kill us all by playing!

We couldn't make a phone call, so we were all dumbfounded, but I knew that Old Lu and I couldn't panic now. We had to stir up some trouble now, after all, there were still two girls here, and if we guys couldn't protect them, then we would have to play along in the future.

I said to Old Lu, We can't wait any longer. The rain is going to fall soon, and we have to go on ahead and see if we can find a place to hide from the rain.

After Old Lu nodded, he and I placed the two girls in the middle and continued walking forward. A lot of the red flowers were trampled by the four of us, but no matter how abnormal it was, I don't think the flowers here were planted by humans.

Is that a house? Lin Zuiji suddenly pointed at a large lump not far away in surprise.

Listening to her words, I looked up. I didn't expect it to be a small house, but it might be due to the long history of being covered with red flowers. It was hard to find at first glance.

Let's go over and take a look. Be careful. I reminded him before taking the lead to walk over.

As I got closer, I noticed that the house was barely adequate. It was just a shed with walls made of mud, so the walls were covered with red flowers and there was a door on the right side for me to enter.

As soon as we walked in, it started to rain outside. It seems like the heavens weren't blind. At least, they didn't let us get in the rain.

At this time, I could only console myself. Because there were no windows, the room was quite dark, and the smell of the time filled my nose. When Chu Lianxing opened the door, there was only a little bit of light in the room.

Because I hastily entered without even taking a look at the furnishings of the room, suddenly opening the door like this, the things in the room gave me a fright.

However, Old Lu, this useless person, let out an ah sound, making all of us tense up.

Ye Zichen turned on the flashlight on his phone. He didn't expect that there was a statue in the room. It was about two meters tall, and it was a woman wearing a faded cloak.

Due to the circumstances of the past few days, I immediately thought of the saffron. Could this statue be the saffron?

I pointed my phone at the statue's face. Although it was a human face, I could tell from the expression that it wasn't a good person. How could it be that kind-hearted and infatuated Red Flower?

Since it wasn't a red flower, could it be the mountain god of the story? Damn it, the more I guess, the more ridiculous it is. I shook my head and said to Lin Zuidi and Chu Tianxin, Don't touch anything. Once the rain stops, we'll leave.

But obviously I said this too late, because while I was talking, Old Lu was taking pictures of Lin Zuidi leaning against the statue with his cell phone. Apparently, their sense of crisis had weakened, and they felt safe without the rain.

Just when I wanted to remind Old Lu, his hand started trembling uncontrollably and his expression became extremely unnatural.

I frowned and walked over as well. Old Lu suddenly looked at me and shook his head lightly, then said to Lin Zuishuang nonchalantly, Wait, this photo isn't good, I deleted it. It's mainly because of the lighting in the room, let's not take any more light. After the rain stops, we'll go out and take in the red flowers on the ground.

Lin Zunshuang did not realize that Old Lu's words were wrong. In fact, neither did I, but my phone vibrated. When I opened it to take a look, my heart immediately started trembling and all the hairs on my body stood up.

The person in the photo was Lin Zuishuang. At this moment, Lin Zuishuang was holding the statue with one hand and performing a cutting motion with the other. Although he looked tired, it was evident that he was doing it from the bottom of his heart.

What struck me as horrifying was that there was a person lying on top of the statue with his face covered by a long strand of hair. Although she couldn't see his eyes, it was obvious that she was very interested in him.

I immediately took off the Eight Trigrams Mirror that I was wearing and handed it to Lin Zuidi. He told her to hang it around her neck, while he looked at me in confusion.

Old Lu panicked. He took the Eight Trigrams Mirror and placed it around Lin Zuiyue's neck, saying, Aiya, if I tell you to take it, you take it. It won't harm you anyway.

This time, I didn't bring any of the fellows with me. I even left the Yin Yang Umbrella in the hotel, with only a Eight Trigrams Mirror to Lin Zuibi. What if that fellow wants to harm us, what should we do?

The thing in the camera was so scary, really, that the way the cat with her hair all over her face was in the dark almost made me think back to the days when she went to school and watched me lie in bed with her at night. When she climbed out of the well, I was so scared that I didn't even dare to pee.

At this point, you might be curious. We don't have the Sky Eye, so we can't see the hell, but why can the phone see it?

Here again involves a aspect of the posture, I also briefly introduced to the big guy, from a scientific point of view, the ghost is a unique existence of the mental state, that is, electromagnetic waves, we people see things according to the object's reflection of light, the eye to the brain signal also known as brain waves.

The brain controls, that is, it is controllable, and it is because of this that many of us are bewitched by the unique electromagnetic breakdown that the ghost deliberately releases, and by the fact that we are bewitched by the ability to control our own brain.

However, the machinery was different. Electronics did not have those high level items. Anything under the camera would be able to get a picture of it, so even ghosts had nowhere to hide.

I looked at the statue and felt an inexplicable chill run down my spine. This feeling was really f * cking bullsh * t, not that I was bragging. Forced. If it weren't for the fact that Lin Zuibai and Chu Tianxin were here, Old Lu and I would have been beaten up by now. We would have been knocked out first and then the rest would have been done.

Like Old Lu, I wasn't worried about my own safety, I was more worried that this thing would harm Lin Zuiba and Chu Liangxing, and we couldn't do anything to that bitch in front of them. After all, if there really was a fight, then in their eyes, it would be the two of them battling the air for three hundred rounds.

I was glad I had the knife with me, so I quietly cut my finger with it and put out a light on my forehead and rubbed it over each of my eyes.

Although this method is different from directly opening the Heaven's Eyes and it's only a way to reduce anger, it's really convenient at this time. After all, at this time, I can't go up and find some Willow Leaf White Liquor.

At this moment, I could vaguely see the silhouette of that damned woman. Although it wasn't very clear, at least I didn't have to keep holding my phone.

The woman was still lying on the statue, her head bobbing from side to side as if she were looking at us. Perhaps in her eyes the four of us were nothing more than a plate of potato shredded meat, a stewed eggplant, a shredded green pepper, and a fresh soup.

However, in my eyes, he was also a dish of green onions and tofu. Old Lu still couldn't see him, so he could only occasionally take a look at his phone and scout the movements of that damned woman.

If that damned woman doesn't look for trouble and obediently lets us go, then I'll let her go and maybe we'll even be able to talk about it. But if she's doing nothing and only causes trouble for us, then we can't be blamed for being merciless, after all, I always felt that these ghosts that were wandering in the wilderness must not be some kind of good people. Because they committed a heinous crime while they were alive, they wouldn't be able to enter the Mansion at this time, so they could only wander around these dark corners of other people for a long time to find a substitute for their deaths.

Old Lu walked over and whispered to me, I didn't bring any tools, so let's just not fight. After all, these two girls are still here. It would be terrible if they were scared.

I nodded and pointed to
