Are there ghosts in the mountains?

Lu Yi was funny: "What era is this? Why do you still believe in feudal superstition? How can there be ghosts in this world?"

"Really." The old man said seriously: "Do you know why we are called the Hundred Thousand Mountains? It's because there are too many mountains here and it's too mysterious."

"What's the mystery?" Lu Yi asked.

"I'll talk first. During the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese came here to sweep the enemy. At that time, a regiment of Japanese soldiers entered the mountains, but none of them came out."

The old man was afraid that Lu Yi would not believe it, so he said, "Everyone in our village knows this. If the boss doesn't believe it, you can ask after you go back."

"That's the only one?"

"More than that," the old man glanced at the distant mountain peak and said, "Later, we were going to develop here and do tourism. People from the top were sent to survey, and several surveyors went in but didn't come out."

"A lot of police officers came at that time. After investigating for a long time, two police officers also died here. From then on, the mountain was closed and villagers were not allowed to enter."

The old man said: "Even if the mountain is not closed, no one dares to go in. There are ghosts in the mountain. In the middle of the night, ghost fires will appear inexplicably in the mountains, accompanied by some strange sounds."

"Isn't it unscientific if you only see ghosts and fire?" Lu Yi said: "Besides, science has now explained that ghosts and fire are a natural phenomenon in nature."

Ghost fire is also called phosphorus fire. It often appears in rural areas in summer, but most places where ghost fires appear are in cemeteries. Because human bones contain scales, phosphorus will produce phosphine when it interacts with water or alkali.

Phosphine is a natural gas, very light and will move when the wind blows. In ancient times, there was no such scientific explanation, so the people thought it was ghost fire.

"There are really ghosts." The old man said: "If there were no ghosts, why didn't those who entered the mountains come out?"

"Maybe it's a wild beast?" Lu Yi said.

The old man shook his head violently: "No matter how powerful the beast is, can it be as powerful as the gun? The group where the Japanese entered back then brought a lot of weapons."

"Even if many people die and some strange things happen, it doesn't mean that there are ghosts in the mountains? Unless you see them with your own eyes."

Hearing this, the old man became anxious, "Boss, why don't you believe it? There are really ghosts in the mountains, and anyone who has seen them with his own eyes is dead."

Lu Yi smiled and said, "It's not that I don't believe in you, but now everything is scientific."

"Science is a big deal. I came to several inspection teams. I took some photos and videos around here, and then made a program to play. It is said that the number of clicks is quite high. I watched it on TV. In the end, nothing was found." The old man said: "Just like an investigation team I watched a few days ago, I pulled it for half an hour, but in the end it was all exploring."

Lu Yi was a little funny. He had watched a lot of programs about this kind of scientific exploration, and it was indeed as the old man said. In the end, he didn't investigate anything clearly, but instead made it even more mysterious.

"By the way, can you go to the dock and put me down?" Lu Yi said.

"Boss, do you really want to go in?" The old man looked bitterly: "Why don't you listen to my advice? You can't go to the mountains, there are really ghosts."

"It's okay, I'm young and full of energy. If there is a ghost, I should retreat even when I see me." Lu Yi smiled. The more mysterious the old man said, the more he wanted to go in.

Indeed, the 100,000 mountains have been mysterious since ancient times. Lu Yi also wanted to go in and see what is in the mountain?

"Boss, listen to my advice. If you can't enter the mountain, you'd better go back with me!" The old man advised earnestly.

"It's okay, you dock the boat and I'll go down." Lu Yi said.

"Oh, you are young, why don't you listen to advice?" The old man said helplessly: "Boss, some wild game in our village is good, why don't you go back with me to try it?"

"You don't have to worry about me. I really won't have any trouble. I just go in and take a look. If there is any danger, I will come out immediately." Lu Yi said.

"Boss, the mountains are too dangerous, so don't go..." The old man stopped halfway through his words, and saw Lu Yi holding a stack of red banknotes, which was at least four or five thousand.

"You stop the boat when you dock, and all the money will be yours," Lu Yi said.

The old man swallowed his saliva, then kept shaking his head and said, "No, I can't watch the boss die, I can't make money that is unconscienced."

Lu Yi took out another stack of red bills, and this time there were ten thousand more.

"As long as you go to the dock and put me down, all the money I have in my hands is yours, and I voluntarily entered the mountain. If any accident happens, it has nothing to do with you."

The old man stared at the money in Lu Yi's hand. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go to the dock and put you down, but be careful. If you think something is wrong, come back quickly. I'll wait for you here."

Lu Yi smiled and handed the money to the old man.

"Thank you, boss." The old man took the money, rowed the wooden boat to the shore, and put down Lu Yi.

"You go back, don't wait for me." Lu Yi said.

"Boss, you must be careful. If there is danger, come back immediately. I will wait for you here." The old man reminded.

"I really don't have to wait for me. If you go back, I won't be in trouble."

"I'm still waiting for you here. Only when I see you come back safely will I feel better." The old man got off the boat, found a tree, and tied the rope to the tree.

Lu Yi shook his head helplessly and said to the old man: "If you insist on staying here, please be careful."

"Boss, don't worry about me, I just hope you will come back safely." said the old man.

"Don't worry, I will return safely." Lu Yi smiled, and then calmly entered the mountain.

It is worthy of a hundred thousand mountains. The mountains are tall and continuous. The ancient trees inside are towering. When walking in during the day, you feel gloomy and terrifying.

Lu Yi was also very skilled and brave, and was not afraid at all. He looked calm and walked towards the depths of the forest.

At first, it was fine, but after climbing two mountains in a row, the temperature still became colder. Even though Lu Yi had an extraordinary cultivation level, he still felt a hint of chill here.

Wherever you pass, there are ancient trees everywhere, and the ancient trees are getting bigger and bigger. In the end, nine pine trees appeared in Lu Yi's sight.

These nine pine trees grow on a bare mountain, towering into the clouds. Each one needs at least twenty people to embrace each other. The branches are green and powerful, just like the nine dragons watching the forest and the sea, with a grand momentum.

Nine pine trees are lingering together, like a cloud shed, with green leaves and lush branches and leaves.

As soon as Lu Yi arrived here, he felt a strong breath of life. He closed his eyes and felt it carefully. Lu Yi found that this rich breath of life actually came from the top of the nine pine trees.

Lu Yi immediately opened his eyes and looked up at the top of the pine tree. After seeing it clearly, his heart was beating wildly, and he saw a golden little tree growing on the top of the nine pine trees.
