Strange mountains and rivers

I missed a section, no wonder the brothers are saying that it’s not right, I’m sorry!

"Are there any other powerful monsters in the ditch?" Chen Huaisheng slowly brought the topic to this issue.

Since Lu Zhaolin was killed in Yefenggou, it is not yet certain whether he was a monster or an evil spirit, or whether someone else killed Lu Zhaolin and pretended to be a monster or evil spirit.

Xiong Zhuang has lived in Yefeng ditch for decades. Although he rarely leaves the ditch, he may know something about it.

"There are quite a few unqualified monsters. I occasionally hunt them, such as short-tailed arrow deer and iron-horned running sheep. The arrow deer meat is okay, but the running sheep smells too strong and is not tasty..."

"Powerful monsters, first-order monsters and above. The wolf appeared in the south of the ditch, and the fire-maned wild boar also appeared. I saw the Yunteng Golden Cat twice in the ditch, and the second-order monster appeared once in the north of the ditch. ,..."

Xiong Zhuang seemed to be reminiscing, "Some years ago, maybe five or six years ago, it was a blue-feathered buzzard with flaming eyes, its wings spread nearly two feet, and it easily hunted down an iron-horned sheep..."

"By the way, there seems to be an ice-scale blood python outside the ditch north, but I encountered it twenty years ago. I haven't seen it in the past few years. I don't know if it left or was hunted... …”

Goubei? Even Lu Zhaolin couldn't go there, he had already entered the extremity area.

Yunteng Golden Cat is considered to be the top ferocious beast among the first-order monsters. It is not impossible to hunt down Lu Zhaolin, a sixth-level Qi refining person, but it is only possible with a surprise attack.

But since Lu Zhaolin walked to the entrance of the wild bee ditch, it seemed impossible that he would accidentally take precautions, and it was unlikely that the golden cat would make a sneak attack.

What's more, if the golden cat really hunts down the cultivator, why not say that the deer eats up all the limbs of its neighbors?

Even if it can't be eaten at once, the golden cat will take the body away based on its habits.

"Brother Xiong, have you met any people or things with "cha-yan" inside and outside Mizokou in the past two years?" Chen Huaisheng felt that Xiong Zhuang had difficulty understanding the word "cha-yan", so he explained in detail.

Only then did Xiong Zhuang understand and nodded: "Well, you are talking about a situation that is not in line with common sense. In the past few years, the number of people coming to the mountains has been increasing day by day. The first ones to come to the mountains were mostly the Taoists you mentioned. Hunting some low-grade monsters, or digging for herbs, but in the past two years, there have been more cultivators of your level chasing you today, and I can encounter them once or twice a year..."

Chen Huaisheng was stunned, and then asked: "Is it similar to the person who chased me, or is it higher?"

Xiong Zhuang hesitated for a moment, then tilted his head and asked: "Some are similar, some are taller. Dear brother, are you trying to find out something?"

This person was not slow to learn and adapt, and Chen Huaisheng was unwilling to destroy the fragile trust he had finally established with the other person, so he nodded.

"Last spring, a friend of mine was killed in Mizoguchi. He was much higher in cultivation than me, and higher in cultivation than the person who is chasing me today. He was also very vigilant, but he was still killed and his body was The body was dismembered, but I couldn't find out who did it. I couldn't tell whether it was a monster or someone else. That's why I wanted to find out. Who has ever thought of accidentally hunting a strange wolf, but still being stared at? After taking Yuan Dan,..."

"Last spring?" Xiong Zhuang frowned and recalled, and then said after a long time: "I have some memories. At that time, I saw a person from a distance at the entrance of the ditch. I felt that the yin energy in his body was worse than the miasma in the ditch. In addition, there were two people beside him. It's a cloth bag, but the cloth bag is still standing up. It's strange, as if it's waiting for someone at the mouth of the ditch..."

Yin Qi is very strong, which is a bit broad.

Bag? Chen Huaisheng was a little confused. What was in the standing bag? It's a bit inappropriate for Xiong Zhuang to use the word "standing", wait...

"Brother Xiong, what do you mean when you say this bag is standing up?"

"I feel that this bag is about the same height as a human being, and it feels like there are two people inside it..." Xiong Zhuang scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "But it is definitely not a human being. I still have the aura of a living person. I can feel it..."

Not a living person? Could it be a dead person?

Evil ghost? !

Chen Huaisheng immediately asked: "Brother Xiong, how do you see that person with a strong negative energy dressed up? Is there any special sign?"

"Dressed up? He's dressed in linen clothes, made up of pieces of linen cloth. I have poor eyesight and can't see the person clearly, but the person is holding a wooden stick in his hand, and there seems to be some bells on the top of the stick... …”

Xiong Zhuang's words made Chen Huaisheng almost shout.

It's not evil, but it is a corpse ghost, and the man in linen clothes with a strong sinister energy should be the ghost cultivator, or ghost cultivator.

Ghost cultivators are rare in Da Zhao and are even somewhat taboo, but not in Southern Chu.

In particular, there are one or two places in Southern Chu that are quite famous. Ghost cultivators and Gu cultivators are known as the two most characteristic cultivations of Southern Chu.

He is actually a ghost master!

Although it is not certain whether the ghost cultivator attacked Lu Zhaolin, the mere fact that this ghost cultivator, who may be from Nanchu, appeared at Yefeng Mizoguchi at this time last spring is a big suspicion, and he also brought two corpses with him.

The ghost cultivators in the south are completely different from the ghost cultivators in the north, although they are also cultivators.

Ghost cultivators in the South generally rely on the corpses or skeletons of dead people to practice, while ghost cultivators in the North mainly focus on searching for ghosts.

The spiritual body is useless to the spiritual body, but the body of the spiritual body can be enhanced by the corpse's power.

Seeing the sudden change in Chen Huaisheng's expression, Xiong Zhuang estimated that what he said must be of some value to the other party, and he was also very happy: "Brother, what's so weird about this man in linen clothes?"

"Well, it's hard to say, but it's really strange for a ghost cultivator to appear in such a barren mountain with a corpse."

Chen Huaisheng saw that the other party was a little confused, so he quickly explained the meaning of the word "Qiqiao" and told him that when talking to others, "Qiqiao" sounded higher than "suspicious".

This made Xiong Zhuang gain another wisdom.

How to make myself appear more elegant and cultured when talking to others? It seems that I still have a long way to go.

But if you want to gain the respect of those cultivators in the human world, this aspect is essential. The one in front of you seems to be the most suitable teacher for you.

Some thoughts also came alive in Xiong Zhuang's heart, and Xiong Zhuang was also a little happy. This meant that he was becoming more and more like a human being, at least he could think about many issues like a human being.

However, Chen Huaisheng's explanation of ghost cultivators and corpses also made him feel the complexity and weirdness of the human world. It is no wonder that humans rank first among the five insects, but this is far beyond all other races.

Chen Huaisheng asked for some other details, but Xiong Zhuang only glanced at it from a distance. In addition, his eyesight was not very good, so he only saw these and didn't care. He didn't know anything about what happened later. Know.

Although there are some regrets, Chen Huaisheng feels that he has gained a lot.

This ghost cultivator with two ghost corpses is undoubtedly the biggest suspect, and he is most likely to be from Nanchu.

As for what made Lu Zhaolin come here, and how the other party could choose to ambush Lu Zhaolin here, these issues were not something Chen Huaisheng could investigate clearly.

Even the origin of Lu Zhaolin was quite strange. Cai Jinyang was vague about it, and Chen Huaisheng didn't want to ask more.

Obtaining this clue and giving it to Wu Tianen can already give him an explanation for the sect.
