Su Xinguang raised his eyebrows, surprised that he was not tempted. If it were someone else, they would probably happily take over.

In the cold winter, they came so far to chop firewood, which shows that their family is not well off.

It is truly rare to be able to resist temptation in such difficult times.

At this moment, I feel that my sister's decision is right.

This person has good character.

"Uncle, you are wrong. You saved our lives. Our lives are worth this money. If you don't take it, we will owe you a favor. Our family's ancestral motto is not to owe favors to others. If you don't take it, I will follow you until you take it."

Chai Fu was in a dilemma, but seeing his firm attitude, he looked at Su Xiaozhong and others in the back, and saw that they didn't care about the situation here at all, so he sighed.

"Thank you for the reward, young master." Chai Fu accepted the money.

When Su Xinguang saw him take it, a smile appeared on his face, "Goodbye, uncle."

The woodcutter left with his load of firewood.

As soon as Su Xinguang came back, Su Xiaozhong asked, "Is it done?"

"Well. That person is quite interesting." Su Xinguang commented.

Uncle Huo looked at the entrance of Hulu Valley and felt eerie.

"Do you think there are really ghosts there?"

Uncle Huo believed in these things, but Su Wuming didn't believe them at all.

The two of them didn't know the inside story, they just knew they had to go to the clan's land, but when they got here they realized something was wrong, especially after Chai Fu finished speaking.

"There are no ghosts in the world. When more people believe in them, ghosts appear." Su Xiaozhong said.

Even if there are ghosts, they can just kill them. Anyway, no one can stop them from finding the treasure.

"How could this ghost come out in broad daylight?"

As soon as Su Xinguang said this, there was a sound like a ghost crying. Su Xinguang's face froze. It felt like someone was slapping him in the face and it hurt a little.

Uncle Huo's face changed slightly and his expression became nervous.

Su Yin smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, it's just the sound of the wind."

"Why does the sound of the wind sound like crying?" Uncle Huo didn't quite believe what the eldest lady said.

Ghost soldiers were passing through and ghosts were crying in the canyons on the battlefield. He had heard many veterans in the barracks talk about this kind of thing, and many people had seen it.

The fellow said it with great confidence, and I'm afraid that Hulu Valley must be not clean.

Su Yin tried to explain in a way that they could understand, "Because the entire shape of the Hulu Valley is like a gourd, the canyon has a protruding belly and a narrow passage. Once a strong wind blows, the wind will be squeezed when passing through the narrow passage, and then collide with the mountain wall, forming a sound similar to human crying or whistling."

"I see."

Uncle Huo still didn't quite believe it, but no one else cared and could only silently suppress the fear in their hearts.

Su Yin saw Uncle Huo's discomfort and the fear in his eyes.

She knew that once a person's thinking was solidified, it would be difficult to change him all of a sudden, but once he saw it with his own eyes, he would understand what was going on.

They will stay outside Hulukou tonight and enter after dawn.

We chose a location and set up two simple tents.

Su Yin and Su Xin were in one room, while Su Xiaozhong and Uncle Huo and the others were in another.

The campsite is at the foot of the mountain. The surrounding area is deserted and uninhabited. In order to prevent attacks from wild animals, people are needed to keep watch at night.

Uncle Huo was on guard in the first half of the night, and Su Xiaozhong sat with him for a while, allowing Su Wuming to rest.

In the second half of the night, Su Wuming was on guard alone.

The people had clear division of labor, while Su Yin and Su Xinguang fell asleep wrapped in bear skin.

[The wind blew past...In the canyon where it is spring all year round, birds are singing and flowers are blooming, which is completely different from the surrounding environment.

"What is that?"

Suddenly, a bunch of fiery red ants emerged from the small pile of earth.

…

Dense swarms of red ants instantly covered Uncle Huo's entire body...

After a cup of tea...

The red ants faded away, leaving only a skeleton. 】

Su Yin sat up suddenly, her heart beating violently, and the crackling sound of burning matches was heard in her ears.

The scene in the dream kept replaying in my mind.

When she stood up, Su Xinguang woke up too, with a cold light in his eyes. When he noticed that the person beside him was his elder sister and realized that this was the entrance of Hulu Valley, not the dark chamber, the cold light in his eyes slowly faded away and became clear again.

"Sister, are you having a nightmare?"

"Yeah." Su Yin nodded, "Did it disturb your sleep?"

"It's okay. I'm a light sleeper, so it's okay."

Su Yin tucked the leather in for him and said, "You sleep for a while. I'll go out for some fresh air."

After leaving the tent, Su Wuming looked over and was a little surprised to see the eldest lady getting up so early.

"It's still early, Miss, you can sleep a little longer."

Su Yin shook her head. "I can't sleep. Kou Zhong, go take a nap."

"Miss, please call me Wuming."

Su Yin nodded to indicate that she remembered it.

Su Wuming walked into the tent and Su Yin took his place and sat next to the fire. After sitting for a while, Su Xinguang walked over to her side and sat down, adding some firewood to the fire.

"Sister, you are worried."

Su Yin looked at him. This brother was really perceptive.

Su Xinguang tried to comfort her, "Sister, don't worry. It doesn't matter whether we can find it or not. In this life, as long as we are all well, I will be satisfied."

"Yeah." Su Yin responded softly.

The brother and sister sat and chatted for half an hour. People in the tent gradually got up. At this time, Su Yin had already boiled hot water. She poured a cup for each person and they drank the hot tea while eating dry food.

After breakfast, they quickly packed up the tent, put out the fire, and prepared to enter Hulu Valley.

The five men each led their horses towards Hulukou. Uncle Huo was very nervous the whole time, but the other four did not feel anything at all.

As they approached the gourd's mouth, they could clearly feel the temperature suddenly drop. A biting cold wind carrying ice chips blew towards them, accompanied by the sound of a whistling wind.

"It's really cold." Su Yin wrapped her clothes tightly around her body.

Su Wuming walked at the front, followed closely by Su Xiaozhong, then Su Yin, then Su Xinguang, and Uncle Huo was responsible for covering the rear.

Hulu Valley, the entire canyon is just like its name, like a gourd, with a small mouth and a big belly, and is divided into two mouths, upper and lower, with a belly of different sizes.

“Huff…”

When a gust of wind blew through the narrow space, I seemed to hear crying in my ears.

Uncle Huo's body tensed unconsciously and he couldn't help but look back.

Su Xinguang noticed it and reminded him, "Uncle Huo, observe carefully. When there is no wind, there is no crying sound. When there is wind passing through this narrow opening, there will be a ghost crying sound."

Uncle Huo, who was tense and nervous, began to pay attention when he heard this, and gradually discovered that this was indeed the pattern.

However, not every time the wind passes through the narrow valley, it makes a crying sound.
