At night, the moon and stars were sparse. In the night sky, a crescent moon hung high, casting a bright and cool moonlight, and stars were dotted in twos and threes.
In a forest somewhere in the Changshan area, the shadow of a big tree was dancing, swaying softly in the night wind.
"Senior year... Senior year..." Suddenly, a long and drawn-out voice sounded in the forest: "It's getting dark. The banquet at Taijun's side is about to start. Don't be late."
Already..."
"rustle--"
The branches of the big tree swayed for a while, like some kind of response. Then, a middle-aged man walked out of the big tree, looked up at the sky, and then turned to look at the big tree behind him, with a pale look on his face.
His name was Gao Si. He was killed in front of him and his body was thrown under this big tree. After his death, his body was eaten by wild beasts, and his ghost lived in this big tree.
He had forgotten how long he had been dead, what relatives he had during his lifetime, and where he was from... he had forgotten all these, and did not think much about them...
There is no need to worry about what happened in life. After death, you will become a ghost and live a good life as a ghost. As for what happened in life, it is a matter of being a living person when you are alive. It has nothing to do with him now. It has nothing to do with him now.
As far as we are concerned, living people are just food. Who would think about food?
Walking out of the big tree, stretching a bit, the senior year walked towards Taijun Mountain. Taijun Mountain was the hilltop where Chang Taijun's cemetery was located, and it was named after Chang Taijun.
Chang Taijun is a transcendent existence among the ghosts in the surrounding area. Today is the happy day for his centenary return and reappearance. All the ghosts within a hundred miles who have heard the news rush there.
More than a hundred years ago, in Changshan Town, Chang Taijun provoked a very powerful Taoist priest and had a great battle with Chang Taijun. Although the Taoist priest died in the end, Chang Taijun was also seriously injured and was killed by the Taoist priest.
It was sealed on Taijun Mountain. It is only now, more than a hundred years later, that Chang Taijun has broken through the seal and seen the light of day.
However, although more than a hundred years have passed, Chang Taijun's prestige has not weakened because of this hundred years of silence.
For the ghosts of Chang Shan Fangyuan's generation, Chang Taijun was the absolute king. Even though he had been sealed away by the Taoist priest for a hundred years, no ghosts dared to look down upon him.
Now that Taijun Chang is coming back and holding a big banquet, ghosts like them will naturally go there one after another.
.................................................
"Hey, Sister Lan, look at the front, what's going on, there are so many people, and there seems to be a lot of people on the mountain."
Chang Shan, under the moonlight, Ye Lan, Zhou Li, Zhang Quan, and Wu Qingfeng came here. Zhang Quan and Wu Qingfeng were carrying the camera and the stand respectively.
They have been investigating Chang Shan's affairs since a few days ago. As the investigation deepens, they discover more and more missing people. Moreover, these missing people all have a common characteristic. They have been to Chang Shan.
, but other clues could not be found, so several people led by Ye Lan had the idea of coming to Changshan to find out in person.
However, because the period was interrupted by the Li family's affairs, the matter was delayed for a while. During the day, due to the city hall's order not to publish news or articles about the Japanese and the Li family's martial arts school, a few people picked up the Changshan matter again and investigated today.
After discovering that several more people had disappeared, the four of them immediately decided to come over tonight to investigate for themselves.
But after arriving here, the four of them were stunned.
I saw silhouettes of people appearing in twos and threes on some mountain paths within sight, and there were many people there.
On the top of a mountain in the distance, the lights were even brighter, and you could faintly hear the lively sounds coming from above. The figures who appeared were all rushing towards the top of the mountain.
The four of them didn't know that the top of the mountain was Taijun Mountain.
He didn't pay attention to the fact that most of the people who appeared did not have their feet on the ground.
However, because it was night, although there was moonlight, the line of sight was not as clear as during the day, and they did not pay close attention to their feet, so the four of them did not notice it at all for a while.
"I heard that strange things happened in Changshan during this period. Many people came to watch the fun at night. Could it be that these people just came to watch the fun."
Zhang Quan guessed.
"I don't think so. Look at how lively the mountain is."
Zhou Li looked at the brightly lit mountain top in the distance.
She was still a little scared at first, but now that she saw so many people, the fear in her heart dissipated a lot in an instant, and she began to feel more courageous.
"Why do I feel a little weird?"
Wu Qingfeng said, looking at the brightly lit Taijun Mountain, and then at the figures walking towards the top of the mountain. He couldn't tell what was wrong, but he always felt something strange and abnormal, and he found that
Many people who were going up the mountain in front would look back at them.
Ye Lan also frowned slightly. She couldn't explain why, but her skin and flesh all over her body felt tight.
"Guys, are you here to see the show too?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from behind the four of them. The voice suddenly sounded, which startled the four of them. When they turned around, they saw a middle-aged man with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes.
When he came behind the four people, he was looking at them with a smile. When he saw the figures clearly, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sorry, I seem to have scared you."
The middle-aged man spoke with a smile and sincere eyes, appearing very polite.
"It's okay, it's okay, we were too distracted just now." Zhang Quan said, and then pointed to the brightly lit Taijun Mountain behind him and asked: "Does this elder brother know what's going on up there?"
Wu Qingqing, Zhou Li, and Ye Lan also looked at the person coming.
"Of course I know, don't you know?" the middle-aged man said.
"Well, I'm not afraid of big brother's jokes. We really don't know. We are still confused now. I wonder if this big brother can tell us."
Zhang Quan scratched his head and looked at the middle-aged man with some embarrassment.
The middle-aged man smiled slightly when he heard this.
"I believe all four of you know the strange things about Changshan during this time, right?"
Zhang Quan and others nodded, but their faces were still a little confused, looking at the middle-aged man.
"That mountain is called Taijun Mountain." The middle-aged man continued, pointing to the brightly lit hilltop in the distance, and said: "In those days, Taijun Chang's tomb was buried on the top of that mountain, so that mountain
It is also named Taijun Mountain because of Chang Taijun."
"I heard that tonight is Chang Taijun's birthday. Strange things have happened in Changshan these days. It is said that Chang Taijun is responsible. After hearing this, Chang Taijun's descendants asked a mage to do the math. The mage said that they must ask someone to sing.
A big play can bring peace to Mr. Chang, so tonight Mr. Chang's descendants invited the most famous opera troupe in the city to sing a big play."
"That's why the mountain is so lively tonight. We all came to watch the excitement after hearing the news."
The middle-aged man smiled and said.
"So that's it. No wonder, I said, why does the mountain look so lively, and there are so many people tonight."
Zhang Quan, Wu Qingfeng, and Zhou Li all had expressions of surprise on their faces when they heard this.
Only Ye Lan, who was next to her, remained silent and looked towards the direction of Taijun Mountain. She vaguely felt that something was wrong and felt uneasy in her heart, but she couldn't tell what was specifically wrong.
"Guys, you guys want to go and have a look, do you want to come together?"
The middle-aged man asked again.
"Sister Lan, are we going?"
Zhou Li looked at Ye Lan, who thought for a moment.
"Sister Lan, let's go up together. Anyway, we are here to check on Mrs. Chang tonight, so we just go directly up there."
Zhang Quan suggested.
Ye Lan pondered for a moment, thought about it, and finally nodded.
Although there was an uneasiness in her heart and she always felt that something was wrong, she couldn't think of anything wrong for a while. Moreover, seeing how lively Taijun Mountain was and how many people went up there, she thought that even if something really happened, so many people would be there.
Nothing will happen.
Immediately, a group of four people and the middle-aged man walked up the mountain.
"By the way, this big brother, I haven't asked you what your name is yet."
As a group of people walked together, Zhang Quan asked the middle-aged man again, asking for his name.
"My surname is Gao, and I am the fourth child in my family. Everyone calls me Gao Si."
