"Gululu~" Huang Shao and Diao Jun were sitting by the fire at night, their stomachs growling.
Although I am used to it, it is still difficult.
"Brother Shao, I'm so hungry~"
"I'm hungry too!"
“It’s hard to find wild vegetables in the mountains recently.”
"What can I do? Just wait until summer."
"That's still very early!"
"You think, what if we didn't lose the silver? With so many silver ingots, we can definitely get a reward if we turn them in to the government, right?"
"Then I'm not sure, what if I meet an iron rooster?"
"That's true..."
While he was talking, there was a "bang bang" sound of fireworks outside, and the light was shining.
"It seems very lively today?" Huang Shao walked to the window and looked out.
"I don't know who is setting off fireworks..." Diao Jun sighed, "Fireworks are valuable. If we have the money to buy them, we can eat them for several days..."
"People's lives are different!" Huang Shao said depressedly, "No, I must find a job tomorrow."
"Aren't we looking for him every day? There haven't been any temporary jobs recently." Diao Jun scratched his face.
"Jun'er, I want to go to Qiao's house tomorrow."
"Qiao's family?"
"Hmm! That's a big family, maybe they'll recruit servants or something." When Huang Shao said this, he was actually thinking about the stunning woman he saw during the day, Miss Qiao, who was kind-hearted in giving porridge.
If she could enter the Qiao Mansion, even if she was looked down upon by people of low status, as long as she could see her often, she would be satisfied!
How could Diao Jun know what Huang Shao was thinking? Hearing this, he couldn't help but shake his head: "Brother Shao, it seems that the Qiao family is not short of people."
"Try it! What if you accept it? You go with me tomorrow!"
"oh......"
Looking at the fireworks outside the window, Huang Shao sighed and returned to the house, lying next to the fire: "Go to bed early!"
"Um!"
It was ten minutes past midnight.
Urgency to urinate...
Diao Jun came out of the Tutu Temple quietly without waking up the sleeping Huang Shao.
What should I do if I’m hungry? Drink water!
There is a lot of water, but the stomach is very bloated and always needs to be drained.
When I got outside the house, I ran to the grassland near the Earth Temple and found a bush to start.
After urinating, I felt refreshed and the cool breeze blew me away. I quickly dressed up and went back to the temple.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind came oncoming.
Before he could react, he lost consciousness, and in a daze he only thought he saw a white shadow.
I don't know how long it took, but when he slowly regained consciousness, he was shocked to find himself sitting in the corner of an abandoned hut in the desolate mountains, with his hands and feet tied up by vines, unable to move.
Where is this? Why am I here? What happened?
Diao Jun was very panicked.
"Where is this?" a pleasant voice sounded next to him, followed by a scream of fear.
He hurriedly turned his head and looked around, only to realize that besides himself, there was a stunningly beautiful girl who was also bound by vines in the abandoned hut. The scream just now came from her mouth.
Who is she? Diao Jun was confused, where is she?
Looking at the woods illuminated by the moonlight outside the window, could it be the mountains and forests around Qimu Town? It just seems like it has never been there before.
The extremely beautiful girl's eyes were full of fear at this moment, and her whole body was curled up in a ball and trembling.
From the look on her face, she didn't seem to know what was happening.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew in, and a cold breath hit his face.
Both Diao Jun and the beautiful girl shuddered.
"Plop!" Before they could react, a woman wearing a white dress and looking extremely cool appeared in front of them. The woman held a beggar entangled in vines and threw him to the ground.
Diao Jun had seen this beggar before. He often appeared begging near the stone bridge in the east of the city. Sometimes he was beaten for stealing.
The beggar fell to the ground and struggled desperately, calling for help.
The woman in the white dress snorted coldly, her eyes emitted a strange red light, and then she opened her mouth and inhaled hard.
At the same time, the beggar showed a painful expression on his face, and strange blue smoke appeared on his body, flying toward the woman in the white dress and entering her mouth.
When the blue smoke was gradually sucked away, the beggar's already skinny body shrank at an alarming speed, and his eyes almost jumped out. The scene was extremely terrifying.
And when all the blue smoke was sucked away by the woman in the white dress, he finally lost his breath and turned into a stiff corpse.
After smoking the blue smoke, the woman in the white dress showed an intoxicated expression and turned her gaze to Diao Jun and the beautiful girl not far from him.
ghost!!
Diao Jun only felt creepy. This was clearly a scene of ghosts sucking Yang Qi. Even though he had never seen it with his own eyes, he and Huang Shao occasionally heard stories about these ghosts and ghosts from the storytellers over Shiqiao.
It turns out that he was kidnapped by a female ghost and was in danger!
It turns out that the story told by the storyteller is not entirely false, there really is a ghost in Qimu Town!
If I had known better, I would have endured it and not left the Tutu Temple late at night.
Although the Tu Tu Temple has been abandoned, at least there is still a broken statue of Tu Tu Grandpa inside. The female ghost should not dare to enter.
It's too late to say anything now...
Brother Shao, I am going to die here tonight, do you not even know what happened to me?
Maybe when I wake up tomorrow, I will think that I have abandoned you and left Qimu Town regardless of brotherhood...
Seeing the female ghost in the white dress approaching, she closed her eyes in despair and waited for death, hearing the fearful screams and cries of the stunning beauty in her ears.
"Don't harm anyone, evildoer!" At the critical moment, there was a sudden shouting outside the house, and then a sword broke through the window and shot straight at the female ghost in the white dress.
"Whoa!" The female ghost in the white dress quickly avoided it, flew out suddenly, and pounced on the person coming.
I couldn't see the situation outside, I only knew that someone was fighting with the female ghost in a white dress, and the fight was lively.
The voice sounded familiar, but Diao Jun was too frightened to recall it.
His eyes fell on the sword that had just been shot into the air. Its tip pierced the mud wall, and the sharp blade shone with a cold light.
He looked down at the vines that bound his hands and feet, then looked at the sword that seemed to be very close to the ground, and quickly rolled and moved to the side of the sword.
Outside, you and I are still fighting each other, which is an opportunity.
Diao Jun's heart was beating wildly, and he didn't care whether he would be scratched by the sword. He first determined the position, turned his back to it and went down, so that the sharp edge of the sword touched the vine, and then rubbed it back and forth carefully.
"Whoa!" The blade was really fast, cutting off the vines directly, and his hands were immediately free.
With hope of survival, Diao Jun hurriedly grabbed the hilt of the sword, pulled it out with force, and cut off the vines that bound his feet.
"Save me!" The beautiful girl crying next to her saw Diao Jun successfully getting rid of his restraints. At the same time, the female ghost did not know who she was fighting outside and asked for help in tears.
"Miss, please turn around!"
"Okay!" The girl turned her back to Diao Jun and asked him to cut the vines with his sword, freeing her hands and feet. She quickly stood up and cried, "Thank you, warrior!"
"Follow me!" Diao Jun walked in front with his sword in hand and quickly rushed to the door.
The stunning girl held up her skirt and followed closely, sobbing all the way.
When they got outside the door, they saw a female ghost in a white dress fighting with a Taoist priest.
When he saw the appearance of the Taoist priest, Diao Jun was extremely surprised: "Brother Jia?! Why are you here?"
"While I'm entangled with the female ghost, leave quickly!" Jia Zhengjin and the female ghost in the white dress were going back and forth, and they were having a great time fighting. (To be continued)
