Maoshan ghost hunter

The boy turned his head and said to the girl: "Although he doesn't want to recognize us, we must repay this kindness. We will go to him right away."

The girl immediately frowned and said, "Where can I find it?"

The boy thought for a while, and said: "The only ones who can seal demons are the Taoist priests with the celestial master tablets. They must come from Maoshan and Longhushan. This place is close to Longhushan. Let's go and find out first. If not, then go to Maoshan."

The girl nodded repeatedly and asked, "Brother, what happens after you find him?"

"Acknowledge him as Lord and obey his orders. Let's go."

The two walked into the forest side by side.

At this time, the three of Ye Shaoyang had already descended the mountain and were walking on a country road.

Tan Xiaohui took a look at Ye Shaoyang and said, "Brother Shaoyang, you are so strange. You have sealed the demons, and you can recognize them as their masters as long as you give them blood. What a wonderful thing, why did you leave?"

Ye Shaoyang said: "It's not necessary, I met them twice, it was a chance for each other, so I helped them survive the catastrophe, and I also gained a merit, if I take them as demon servants... that would be too utilitarian Yes," Ye Shaoyang tossed his hair, and said in a pretentious tone: "And I like to rely on my own strength in everything I do, and I don't like others to help."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ma stretched out a backpack in front of him, "You don't like to help, do you? Then go with your own backpack and don't look for me!"

"Uh..." Ye Shaoyang smiled immediately, and coaxed him: "You are one of your own, not someone else, so asking for your help is not considered a favor."

The pony snorted.

"By the way, why did I see these two snakes, green and white, so familiar..." After driving for a while, the pony scratched his head and said, "Did we go back to ancient times and take the white lady and the little snake together?" Qing was saved? Hey, hey, little leaf, you said that the two snakes are male or female, will you make a promise to you? What if they are a pair of sisters, hey, can I share one of them?"

Ye Shaoyang gave him a hard look: "You think you are Xu Xian?"

Chapter 2 Nineteen Cockscomb Snake

There is a small town down the mountain.There are many bamboo houses on stilts built near the mountains in the town, which are residential buildings with unique shapes.

The streets are full of men and women dressed in Miao costumes.

"These are all Miao people, please don't talk nonsense." Tan Xiaohui reminded in a low voice.

"I know, I know," Xiao Ma nodded repeatedly, and smiled, "But to be honest, these Miao girls are really handsome, and their small bodies..."

Seeing Ye Shaoyang and Tan Xiaohui staring at him together, they immediately stopped talking.

It was already dark, and the three of them had been walking for a long time. They were very tired, but Tan Xiaohui was not in a hurry to take them to a hotel. Instead, she searched the streets and finally chose a small hotel.There are only two small bamboo buildings in the store, and there are no more than a dozen rooms in total. The rooms are very simple, but the furniture is very Miao.

Qin Xiaohui ordered a few kinds of food from the store and brought them to the room to eat, such as fish in sour soup, camellia oleifera, blood tofu, and a small bottle of sweet wine, all of which were typical Miao food. The horse was very satisfied. After eating, Tan Xiaohui ordered several more cups of insect tea from the shop.

The black tea-like liquid has a special fragrance when drunk, but it tastes completely different from ordinary tea water.

"Very good, what kind of tea is this?" Ye Shaoyang asked curiously.

Qin Xiaohui covered her face and smiled. "The name is insect tea, what do you think?"

Ye Shaoyang was taken aback for a moment, his expression immediately felt a little uncomfortable. "No...is it the corpse of a bug?"

"Wrong, it's not the corpse of the bug, it's... the excrement of the bug."

The pony just took a big gulp in his mouth, and when he heard the word feces, he squirted all over Ye Shaoyang's face with a puff.

"Don't waste it!" Qin Xiaohui rolled her eyes, "Isn't this similar to honey, and now insect tea is selling well in other places, and everyone likes it very much."

Xiao Ma waved his hands again and again, "I can't, I don't have such a strong taste."

That night, it began to rain lightly outside, and the raindrops hit the outer layer of the bamboo building, making a pleasant sound.

Ye Shaoyang lay on the bamboo bed, thinking that he was still in the city yesterday, but today he spent the night in such a Miao village in the mountains. This feeling is quite strange.

At this moment, he heard a creaking sound under the bamboo bed, as if something was crawling on the bamboo board, he looked down and was stunned:

Among the bamboo boards used for the ground, there was a very thick bamboo tube with a hole in it, and a red snake with a cockscomb on its head protruded half of its body, holding a stick in its mouth. mouse.After seeing Ye Shaoyang, it immediately retracted into the bamboo tube, and then Ye Shaoyang heard a crawling sound, and gradually moved away.

Is that... a snake with a cockscomb?Ye Shaoyang wondered if he was wrong.

When this happened, even though Ye Shaoyang was a celestial master, he didn't dare to be careless. He wrapped a scaring bell with a red thread, hung it around the four feet of the bed, and then fell asleep peacefully.

Early the next morning, when Ye Shaoyang got up to wash up, Tan Xiaohui knocked on the door and called Xiao Ma over, and the three of them gathered in the same room, waiting for breakfast.

Ye Shaoyang told what happened in the middle of the night last night and asked Tan Xiaohui what was going on.

"The owner of this shop is a wizard."

"What!" Ye Shaoyang was startled, and instinctively thought of the Gu master, he had also heard that there was a hotel opened by the Gu master in the Miao Village, who specially used Gu to harm people, and even murder them for money.

Xiao Ma also thought of this, and said in shock: "Then you still bring us to live in such a shop, you are hurting us!" Suddenly holding up his fat belly, he shouted, "Oh, there must be something in the food for us!" Gu, I feel something is wrong in my stomach now, ah, a little pain..."

"You're still in labor pain," Tan Xiaohui said to him, "Don't think about it, the owner of this store is a white witch, not a black witch, so I took you to live here, it's the safest."

As soon as Xiao Ma heard this, he immediately felt his stomach pain no longer, and asked, "What's safe?"

Qin Xiaohui said: "The cockscomb snake you saw yesterday is the house spirit of this store. It usually lives in the bamboo tubes full of houses. If it is in danger, it will protect the people in the building, especially when it is facing the gu. Bugs or something. It won't hurt unless you're not a good person."

Just as they were talking, the proprietress came to deliver breakfast, and put the bamboo plate containing camellia oleifera and Baba on the ground.

The proprietress is a Miao girl with big eyes and sharp chin, especially her skin is very juicy. She looks like a girl in her twenties. When I chatted and asked about it during dinner yesterday, I realized that she is almost 40 years old.

Tan Xiaohui looked at her and said something in Miao language with a deliberate expression of reproach on her face.

The proprietress was stunned for a moment, explained repeatedly, nodded apologetically to Ye Shaoyang and Xiao Ma, and backed out.

"I told the story. She said that the cockscomb snake usually lives in the bamboo tube and hardly comes out. It was raining yesterday and the mice came into the house, so the cockscomb snake came out to catch the mice..."

Ye Shaoyang smiled wryly, thinking that fortunately the cockscomb snake got back at that time, otherwise if he killed it by himself, he would be in great trouble.

The door was pushed open again, the proprietress still came in with the plate, smiled apologetically at the three of them, and said in Chinese: "I offended you so much yesterday, I made a few cups of tea to apologize to you."

"It's easy to say, easy to say." Xiao Ma stood up by himself, picked up the teacup, the smile on his face froze immediately, and looked at Tan Xiaohui with a bitter face: "Insect tea..."

Tan Xiaohui said: "This is someone's apology tea, I have to drink it."

After speaking, he took a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.

Ye Shaoyang immediately covered his stomach, ran to the toilet, and said without turning his head: "My stomach hurts, I have to go to the toilet, and I probably won't be able to get out for a long time. Xiaoma, you can help me drink my cup, it's cheap for you kid !"

Xiao Ma looked at the proprietress who was smiling and looking forward to him, and silently picked up two cups of insect tea, um, tea made from insect excrement...

After bidding farewell to the small town, the three of them continued to lead the way by Qin Xiaohui, and walked down the Qinglong River to the mountains.

Qin Xiaohui explained to them that originally they were going to a city by car, and then rushed to Dead Man's Valley, but now because they walked, they avoided the city and went directly to Dead Man's Valley.

After walking for half a day, at noon, we came to a barren mountain. This is a virgin forest surrounded by mountains. Even the mountain people have not gone deep into this place to live. There are many shadows everywhere, and it is impossible to distinguish the route.

"Dead man's ditch should not be far from here." Tan Xiaohui looked at the surrounding mountains and said, "I have never been to this place before, so I have to find a way to go there."
