Following Gong Yao's pointer, there was a village on the hill ahead. There was no smoke. Lin Chenben was running quickly. Although he felt a little abnormal, there was nothing ordinary in this secret realm.

"I'm used to seeing the same bushes, and finally there's something new."

As we got closer, we could actually hear the sounds of children playing and playing in the village, and occasionally came the caring and scolding words of adults.

As we got closer, we discovered that there were only about a dozen households in this village. The whole village was surrounded by a wall of yellow mud and bluestone piled several feet high. It was covered with some black vines and had not been repaired for many years. Several of them were

The place has already been broken.

The only entrance and exit at the entrance of the village is a wooden door in front of you. The two panels of the door have gone to unknown places, and the remaining door frame is shaky, as if it will collapse if a gust of wind blows.

Looking at the rotten wood on the door frame, Lin Chenben felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

What came into view were three, three, two and two children, chasing and playing around. They wore pigtails and loose patched half-robes of coarse cloth. The boys had their buttocks and feet bare, holding up tattered baskets in their hands.

The paper kite, with a smile on its face, turned back to the little girl behind and shouted: "Come on, come after me!"

The girl looked like she was about to cry, and followed behind her, shouting: "Give it back to me, give it back to me."

This scene instantly reminded Lin Chenben of the scene when he was young and fighting for toys in the orphanage. He was also so naughty.

Lin Chenben walked up with a smile and touched the boy's head: "Men can't bully girls."

The boy made a sound of understanding, then ran away again holding the kite in his hand.

The girl was left squatting there covering her face and crying.

"You fool, you bully my sister again! Look how I will deal with you." Under the eaves, a farmer in his forties, dressed in plain clothes, took a few puffs of his cigarette, stood up, and went to help the little girl up.

Lin Chenben made a prompt decision. Before the farmer could get closer, he helped the little girl up, then nodded to the man and asked with a smile: "Excuse me, uncle, where is this village?"

The farmer looked at him carefully and saw that he didn't seem to have any ill intentions. He raised his head and looked at the horizon. He took a few more sips. As the smoke in his mouth faded, the farmer said with a sad look on his face: "This young man is from

You must be from outside. We have lived here for generations and don’t know where it is. We only know that the village is called Xiaoling Village.”

"Oh, may I ask uncle, why are you so frowning?"

"Well, it's a long story. A ferocious monster appeared out of nowhere and took over the Lingshan Mountain."

The man then pointed

A certain mountain in the distance followed the road.

"Originally, although our village was not rich, we could at least have three meals a day, and our life was at least decent. Since this monster came, it has become the king of the mountain, and the villagers who already rely on hunting for a living have no choice but to

If you don’t risk going into the mountain, who knows what magic the monsters on the mountain can do and what kind of smoke they can create to confuse people who go hunting in the mountain. As a result, none of the villagers who went hunting came back. At this point, more and more men in the village

There were fewer and fewer, so that no one dared to enter the mountain. The gray sky now is also caused by the monster, and even the vegetables in the fields are not growing... You say, how can you not worry? Sir, please be miserable.

It doesn’t matter, it’s the child who suffers.” The man sighed as if he was talking about a sad incident in the past.

"Oh, then why don't you move away?"

"Where to move, everyone once had the idea of ​​​​moving away. Later, the explorers sent out by the village, as long as they came back, either went crazy or died suddenly after a few days. From then on, no one dared to go far.

The monster on the mountain never came down, otherwise, I'm afraid the only remaining people among us would have become the monster's meal."

"Uncle, what does the monster you mentioned look like? Have you ever seen it?"

"Oh, I've never seen her before, and the people I've seen haven't come back. I'm sorry, I'm only less than five years old." The man's eyes turned red as he said this, and he turned his head away, unwilling to show anyone.

"Uncle, if it's as you said, we can go up the mountain to explore the truth. It would be best if we could subdue this monster." Lin Chenben touched his head and said.

Lin Chenben naturally didn't want to cause trouble. There was such a strange village in this secret realm, not to mention that there were living people living here for generations. However, he quietly used his spiritual power to check them, and there was nothing strange about them.

This time I came to the secret place to hunt for treasures, but now I have no clue. Since there is something strange on the mountain, I will take a trip. If what the farmer said is true, then it is a small effort. If it is false, this place is anyway

It also needs to be explored, and you should follow the path.

As soon as the man heard this, his expression changed from normal, and he knelt down excitedly and bowed to the ground: "Are you an immortal? I am an immortal, please accept my worship!"

The man was extremely excited and muttered, "Our village is saved, God has eyes, God has eyes!"

"Immortal, it's almost evening now, so it's not the best time to go up the mountain. If you don't mind, just stay in the humble house for one night and go up the mountain again tomorrow morning." The man seemed to suddenly remember this matter and buried his head on the ground, looking even more worried.

Pious.

"Oh, this uncle, please get up quickly. You're welcome. I'm not an immortal. I just know a little bit about magic. It's hard to say whether I can help the village get rid of the monsters on the mountain. The uncle just said that it's almost evening. Among them

But what's the mystery?" Lin Chenben looked at the sky again, and the sky was still there.

It was all gray and nothing had changed.

"Immortal, I don't know something. In the past, the mountains and rivers here were beautiful and the seasons were like spring. As I said before, the sky here was also polluted by monsters and the sky has not been seen since. Immortal, please follow me!" The man made a gesture of invitation,

He led Lin Chenben to the outside of the village.

After leaving the village, I didn't see Gong Yao at the entrance of the village, and I don't know where she went.

With her level of cultivation, there is no need to worry.

Not far from the village, a pond appeared in front of us. It was more like a pothole than a pond.

The man stopped at the edge of the pool, pointed at the water and said respectfully: "Immortal, look at the water."

The water in the pool was rippled and sparkling, but there was nothing unusual about it. When he took a closer look, he suddenly discovered that the original sparkling water gradually turned into a dark red color, and the water surface became stable.

, the outline of a red moon gradually becomes clear.

"That's not right! Without the sun and moon, how can there be sparkling waves?" Lin Chen realized what he was doing, immediately closed his eyes and jumped back.

When he opened his eyes again, a bright red moon was clearly visible in his pupils.

But he appeared in a blood-red world.

The sky is stained with blood, and on the earth, bones, rotting corpses, and scattered organs can be seen everywhere, exuding a stench that fills the sky, and the whole world is like a Shura hell.

Right now, there is no trace of the uncle anywhere.

Surrounding the blood, there are many black shadows, intertwining and intertwining in the air.

Jie Jie Jie...

Sounds like laughter and crying echoed in my ears.

Immediately afterwards, the two children appeared in front of them again. The boy still jumped forward with the paper kite in his hand, and the girl behind him tried hard to catch up. However, when the boy shouted: "Come on, come after me!" He turned around.

, but his face still turned into that of a ghost. Half of his originally childish face had already rotted away, and white maggots could be seen squirming on it. He grinned back as usual, and a large piece of unknown sticky matter fell from his mouth.

When the girl couldn't catch up and sat on the ground crying, her thin body suddenly made a scratching sound, and the bones at her shoulders spread outwards, pulling on the delicate skin and bulging out. A huge black bone

The claws tore the skin and soared into the sky. The nails on the five fingers were long and sharp. The length of the entire arm was several times longer than the little girl's body. Then the girl's body was changing with every breath. In less than a moment, a foot over a foot tall was formed.

The evil ghost appeared in front of him, staring at Lin Chenben with his teeth bared.

"hiss!!"
