At the foot of Cangsai Mountain.

The sky turned completely dark, and Jiang Chen and the other three left the house of the man named Xiaoqing.

After the restaurant owner's persuasion, the man finally agreed to serve as Jiang Chen's guide.

The man's real name was Luan Xiaoqing, and he was just an ordinary resident of the small town.

but.

Just because he was able to stay on Cangsai Mountain for one night without any harm, now he is no longer ordinary in the eyes of the residents of the town.

After he came down from Cangsai Mountain safely, many people wondered whether the ghosts on Cangsai Mountain had disappeared.

But.

When someone crazy appeared on the streets of the town again, they realized that it was not the ghosts on Cangsai Mountain that disappeared, but that the ghosts had let Luan Xiaoqing go.

As a result, various speculations about this matter began to emerge one after another.

Some people say that the ghost harms people depending on the specific circumstances: people who poach and harm small animals will be killed by the ghost; people who collect herbs and damage the environment will be threatened and warned; Luan Xiaoqing did nothing on the mountain, so he was safe.

certainly.

As soon as this statement came out, it was ridiculed by many people in the town.

Ghosts are not ambassadors for protecting the environment, so how could they meddle in so many other things?

After ruling out this theory, many people have other conjectures.

For example: Luan Xiaoqing's memorial service to his parents moved the ghosts on the mountain, so the ghosts let him go.

Another example: Luan Xiaoqing’s parents’ souls knew something and protected him secretly.

No matter which version is used, this honest man Luan Xiaoqing has a mysterious color.

but.

Jiang Chen didn't care about these things at all.

Originally, he thought this was another vicious evil cultivator or evil spirit injuring people, but after the investigation just now, he found that the trauma to the consciousness of those who were attacked by the mysterious force was not serious.

In Jiang Chen's opinion, the other party may have more elements to intimidate them than wanting to harm them.

After all, except for the first few people, there have been no deaths or incidents with very bad consequences.

and.

If it was really a vicious incident, someone from the Anti-Evil Alliance would definitely handle it, and he really didn't have time to search for ghosts all over the mountains and plains now.

certainly.

If we really meet him by chance, he will naturally not turn a blind eye!

...

That night, Jiang Chen and the two went to bed early.

The next day, just as it was getting light, they both got up again.

After a simple breakfast, the two of them set off together with Luan Xiaoqing who came over.

From here to Xianting Peak, although you can take a bus in the first half of the journey, they are also difficult to walk on mountain roads and are not easy to walk.

but.

No matter how slow the car travels, it is still much faster than having Jiang Chen walk dozens of kilometers by himself.

Along the way, the taxi drove around the mountains, which allowed Jiang Chen to enjoy the snow scenery.

While admiring the scenery on the mountain, Jiang Chen naturally did not forget to explore the surrounding situation.

After a day and night of adjustment, his spiritual consciousness and spiritual energy had recovered a lot. Although it had not fully recovered, it was enough to support him to use his spiritual consciousness to explore the road.

But.

After Jiang Chen investigated, he found nothing unusual.

Xiao Liu, who was driving, saw Jiang Chen looking out of the car window and immediately said curiously.

"Brother Jiang Chen, what are you looking at?"

“Look at the snow scene out of boredom!”

"oh!"

Xiao Liu was silent for a moment, then glanced at Luan Xiaoqing in the back row through the central rearview mirror, and continued to ask.

"By the way, do you believe the haunting incident they said?"

Xiao Liu originally thought that Jiang Chen would shake his head decisively, but Jiang Chen's reaction was far beyond his expectation.

Jiang Chen looked away from the car window and nodded lightly towards Xiao Liu.

"I believe it!"

"Do you really believe it?" Xiao Liu exclaimed, his face full of surprise.

"Yes!"

Seeing that the expression on Jiang Chen's face didn't look like he was joking, Xiao Liu immediately asked in surprise.

"Do you believe such a ridiculous statement? Are there any monsters or ghosts in this world?"

Jiang Chen glanced at Xiao Liu and chuckled.

"Just because you haven't seen it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist!"

"this......"

Xiao Liu froze, and then said a little unconvinced.

"Then tell me, will we encounter those ghosts this time?"

"That's hard to say!"

Jiang Chen replied softly, then turned his head and continued to admire the snow scene outside the window.

Seeing Jiang Chen's reaction, although Xiao Liu was dissatisfied, he had no choice but to swallow his words and concentrate on driving.

In the back seat of the taxi, Luan Xiaoqing naturally heard the conversation between Jiang Chen and Jiang Chen.

but.

He didn't say a word from beginning to end, but looked at Jiang Chen in slight surprise.

...

Jiang Chen and the other three set out very early in the morning, but it was not until noon that they arrived at their destination - a small village surrounded by mountains.

Naturally, this is not Xianting Peak. This is just the only way to Xianting Peak.

The reason why Luan Xiaoqing agreed to be a guide for Jiang Chen and others was precisely because he had a relative who happened to live in this small village.

Driving was no longer possible on the road ahead, and they had to park their taxi in this village, where they could, of course, have lunch before continuing on their way.

Under the leadership of Luan Xiaoqing, Xiao Liu drove a taxi and turned into this small village in the mountains, and finally stopped in front of a house at the head of the village.

"Boss, this is my cousin's house. We can have lunch here before continuing on our way."

"That's fine!"

Seeing Jiang Chen nodding in agreement, Luan Xiaoqing immediately led the two of them towards the farmyard in front of them.

While hurried on, Jiang Chen frowned slightly. He sensed with his spiritual sense that there was no one in this house.

Not only that, there seemed to be no one in the nearby houses.

really.

An iron lock on the door blocked them from the yard.

"Eh?"

Looking at the iron lock on the door, Luan Xiaoqing felt doubtful.

"No one is home? Why is the door still locked?"

"That's not right. Every time my cousin goes out to the mountains, he will stay at my place!"

Just when he was doubtful, Jiang Chen suddenly pointed to the back of the village and said.

"I seem to have heard some noisy voices in that direction. Could your cousin be there?"

Hearing this, Luan Xiaoqing and Xiao Liu both looked at Jiang Chen with puzzled faces, and Xiao Liu even put his palms next to his ears, pretending to be listening attentively.

But.

He listened carefully for a moment, but did not hear any sound.

"Brother Jiang Chen, where is the sound? Why didn't I hear it?"

"Maybe it's because my hearing has always been a little better than ordinary people. I heard a lot of people gathering in that direction." Jiang Chen explained seriously.

certainly.
