The woman didn't take it seriously. She chuckled and blew a breath at him with her pouty lips.
An aroma that was at least ten times stronger than before entered Luo Zheyu's nose.
It was too strong and turned into a stink.
His nostrils twitched slightly twice, and Luo Zheyu couldn't help but sneeze.
The finger against the woman's forehead involuntarily exerted a little more force because of the sneezing action.
"Oops~"
The woman screamed and felt a huge force hitting her forehead. She could no longer maintain her body and fell from the tree to the ground.
It turned out that she was just hanging upside down on the tree, with her head down and her feet up, so only her face was facing Luo Zheyu.
"My dear, you have great strength~"
The woman's voice was seductive and charming. After she fell from the tree, she simply lay on the ground.
The ground was covered with a layer of snow-white clothes and skirt. The woman was lying on it on her side, supporting her head with her elbows, looking up slightly at Luo Zheyu.
Her slender, upturned eyes were extremely enchanting, and her body was only covered with a layer of gauze, which made her appearance vaguely visible and half-exposed. A long, fiery red tail stretched out from behind her, covering her key parts, and two furry red pointed ears popped out from the top of her head.
The snow-white legs are slightly bent, the figure is charming, and the lines are smooth and soft.
The corners of her pink lips were slightly raised, and her words were seductive.
"Little Langjun~"
"The night is long and boring, why not have a quickie with me~"
Luo Zheyu: …
Ming Xin sensed the presence of an evil spirit and this was the scene he saw as he rushed over.
"You demon! How dare you confuse people here!"
He shouted softly and rushed over.
He covered Luo Zheyu's eyes with one hand.
"Don't look at it, or you'll get stye!"
Ming Xin said this while staring at the woman on the ground.
"Where did this little Taoist priest come from? He always ruins other people's good deeds!"
The woman's voice was neither hurried nor slow. She was still lying on the ground, speaking lazily.
"I'm not deceiving people. Can't you see that this zombie in front of you has such a strong corpse aura?"
"So what! You shameless vixen!"
"So what... Hehe~"
The woman chuckled, stretched out her jade-white fingers in front of her eyes, looked at them carefully, and whispered, "What does the pleasure between us fairies and ghosts have to do with you, a Taoist priest?"
Ming Xin was so angry that he wanted to stab her with a sword and spoke without thinking.
"He, he's just a zombie, what can he do to you?"
Luo Zheyu: ???
Seems like something is being questioned.
"Take your hands away."
"I won't take it!" Ming Xin stared at the smiling and smug woman and said angrily.
“…”
"Did you catch any prey?"
"No!"
"Take it away, it's hunting time."
"……oh."
Ming Xin withdrew his hand angrily.
…………
"That place." Luo Zheyu pointed to a bush.
Ming Xin held a sharp sword in his hand, took two or three steps forward silently, and stabbed with the sword.
A fat pheasant was skewered on the sword.
The zombies' hearing is much sharper than Mingxin's, so Luo Zheyu was able to find the hidden prey first. As for why he didn't go hunting himself...
It's always troublesome to do a manicure.
We also have to find something for Mingxin to do, otherwise he will always quarrel with the woman following him.
It turned out that when the woman saw Luo Zheyu pulling Mingxin and turning away, she simply put on the clothes scattered on the ground and followed them.
Although the woman was a vixen, she did not do anything against the law. She did not touch Luo Zheyu. He could not kill her with a sword just because she came up to him and asked for sex for no reason.
"My master said that women are all goblins!"
Ming Xin held a pheasant in his left hand and a hare in his right hand, with a long sword hanging at his waist, and spoke to Luo Zheyu as he walked.
"Little Taoist priest, I am originally a fairy~"
The woman came forward and said with a smile.
She was wearing a white long dress, which made her skin look even whiter like jade, eye-catching, and her slender, upturned eyes were seductive and charming, full of seductiveness.
"I didn't speak to you."
Ming Xin's face turned serious and his tone became unfriendly.
"The little Taoist priest is very fierce, but has he never been close to a woman?"
"Brother Luo, let's walk faster. There's a fat fly buzzing here, making people feel irritated."
Luo Zheyu turned his head to look at him, suddenly pulled him, took a few steps to the side and stopped.
Ming Xin turned his head to look at him blankly. Just as he was about to ask, he saw him facing him with his index finger raised and placed in front of his lips.
He then gestured to Mingxin to look to the right.
Ming Xin turned his head and looked to the right - he saw the woman walking away behind two people.
The two men's clothes from behind were exactly the same as Luo Zheyu and him.
It's a sleight of hand.
When he turned around, he saw the person in front of him with his lips curled up, a smile in his usually sharp eyes, and a bit of mischief on his face.
Her eyes sparkled, and her thin lips were illuminated by the moonlight, giving them a moist color.
Seeing him smile, Mingxin couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
Luo Zheyu pulled Mingxin, signaling him to leave here quickly.
The illusion has no substance and cannot make any sound. It won't be long before the woman discovers it.
The two of them, one in front and one behind, ran quickly back to the ruined temple in the drizzle.
The prey was handed over to the big man, and soon it was roasted over the fire.
Everyone sat in a circle in this dilapidated temple, staring at the dancing flames, smelling the aroma of burning wood resin, and watching the raindrops falling on the roof tiles, making a dripping sound.
"We don't know how long this rain will last, and it's still a long time before dawn. No one can sleep, so why not tell us something interesting?" the bearded man suggested in a gentle voice.
Everyone seconded the motion.
"Brother Zhao, you have been driving for many years. Have you ever encountered any strange things on the road?"
The person who called him "Brother Zhao" was actually the original driver.
The big man with the driver's soul in his body waved his hands repeatedly and said, "At most, it was just a few minor incidents. Compared with what we are going through now, it is not worth mentioning."
Several men who ran the escort agency also said that when they were escorting the caravan, they encountered nothing but bandits and robbers along the way, and they had fights with them. Usually, when they saw that the six of them were strong and had martial arts skills, they would not dare to stop them. In their opinion, these things were not interesting at all.
"My benefactor, Taoist priest, you are so powerful, I believe you have many stories to tell, right?"
The big men turned their attention to Luo Zheyu and Ming Xin, looking at them expectantly with their dark eyes.
Luo Zheyu sat on the ground, with the little zombie leaning against his legs. He stared at everyone in a daze with a pair of lifeless eyes with heavy dark circles under them.
The black dog lay beside the little zombie with his eyes closed, and a faint snoring sound came from his mouth.
It is rounder than it was two days ago and no longer so skinny.
Ming Xin leaned on the other side of Luo Zheyu, his head on his shoulder, drooling in his sleep.
Luo Zheyu shrugged his shoulder twice.
Ming Xin woke up in shock, looked blankly at the people who were staring at him, and wiped his saliva.
“…What happened?”
"Master, have you ever encountered any strange things? Tell us about them!"
"... a strange thing..."
Mingxin rubbed his eyes.
"I have encountered many strange things since I came down the mountain."
Ming Xin lowered his eyes and frowned slightly, as if he was thinking of something confusing and distressing.
"…I have done many wrong things."
Everyone looked at him intently, waiting for him to continue.
"You know, there's a saying that everything has a soul."
"I don't know whether all things have spirits. I only know that some animals and spirits, if they develop intelligence, will be able to think, have feelings, love and hate, and have desires, just like humans."
"Such a spirit could be an animal, a plant, or even a stone."
"A few months ago, when I was coming down the mountain, I passed by a place and saw a willow tree with resentment rising to the sky and black air lingering. I just thought that the willow tree had killed many people, so there was such a strong resentment around it."
"After a fight, the willow tree really became a spirit, but for some reason it suddenly lost its spirituality and became an ordinary plant, no longer moving."
"I didn't investigate further, but after I dug up the willow tree and cut it up by its roots, I found more than 40 corpses at the roots."
"Hiss..." Everyone opened their eyes wide and took a breath of cold air.
"That willow tree actually killed more than forty people?"
Ming Xin paused and shook his head.
"In the center of the tree roots, there were a dozen freshly dead bodies, all of them male, strong and sturdy, dressed in messy clothes, not like ordinary people. Countless willow roots pierced into the bodies, and the death was horrible."
"More than 20 people were buried deep in the tree roots, including men, women, young and old. Their bodies had long since decayed, but judging by the cause of death, they were all killed by sharp weapons."
"A sharp weapon?" The woman in the lotus pink dress couldn't help but interrupt.
“Yes, these twenty-odd people were not killed by Liu Shu.”
Ming Xin lowered his head and looked at the flames with an unclear expression.
"How could there be so many people in such a remote place? After I got down the mountain, I asked around in the nearby towns."
"The townspeople said that there was only a group of brutal bandits on that mountain, about 20 in total, who committed all kinds of evil, such as burning, killing, looting, and often came into the town to rob and injure people..."
Ming Xin had no idea what had happened to the willow tree. He only knew that he seemed to be too impulsive.
But the willow tree had lost its spirituality and became like any other tree, unable to cry out for justice. However, even if it were intact, the willow tree would not speak.
Everything that has been experienced has been buried by time, erasing all traces.
Finally, he could only separate the branches of the willow tree and stick them all over the hilltop, just as it started to rain.
Ming Xin was silent. Everyone saw that he seemed a little heavy and didn't know what to say for a moment.
The rain outside the temple gradually became heavier and thunder and lightning began to occur.
"Let me tell you a story."
Luo Zheyu turned the roasted rabbit over, and the aroma of roasted meat gradually wafted out.
The firelight shone on his face, casting a mysterious halo on the profile of his face.
"There was a man and a woman who committed suicide by taking poison together because their parents did not approve of their marriage."
"That night, it was very dark. Just like today, there were lightning and thunder outside the house, and a violent storm. The man and woman sat in the house, expressing their love to each other, and the woman took the poison and drank it."
"She was writhing on the ground in agony because of the cramps in her stomach. The man was so frightened by her pain that he didn't dare drink the half bowl of poison left on the table. He opened the door and fled in the heavy rain."
"No one has seen him since then."
"And that house gradually fell into disrepair. Many years later, it was finally bought by a foreign businessman..."
