Chapter 0002 A drop of blood, a piece of gold(1/2)
Niu Yuanping did not dare to take the two cents on the bridge.
He hurriedly returned to the inn.
He hurriedly opened the door and went in.
The door was closed so fast that Fatty Zhao woke up from sleeping on the floor.
He asked, "Why are you going?"
"There's a ghost!" Niu Yuanping shouted while running up the stairs in a panic.
Fatty Zhao looked at his back, furrowed his thick eyebrows and muttered, "What's wrong with you?..."
He just muttered and fell back to sleep.
Niu Yuanping climbed up to the attic and escaped into bed.
By this time, the bed was already cold, and coupled with the cold sweat just now, I was shivering from the cold.
Then he couldn't sleep anymore.
The next day, Niu Yuanping immediately told his boss about the matter.
The boss's surname is Li Mingde, and he is an old man who likes to smoke hookahs.
Li De listened to Niu Yuanping's statement, frowned, took a few puffs from his pipe, and said, "This matter is not simple! We must report it to the Yamen and ask the Yamen to invite the Demon Slayer to come and take a look!"
Having traveled here for half a year, Niu Yuanping has heard the most about Demon Slayers.
Located in the Kyoto Prefecture of Dayan Kingdom, the Demon Suppression Division specializes in training demon slayers who can kill demons and protect civilians.
In every city in Dayan Kingdom, there will be two or three demon slayers stationed there. If someone reports to the Yamen that there are ghosts and evil spirits, they can contact the demon slayers to deal with it.
"Yuan Ping, go to the Yamen in Zhubii Town and report this matter! By the way, ask Old Liu in the Yamen for the money he owed for the last meal."
"ah?!……"
Niu Yuanping was a little helpless.
Okay!
I've brought myself into trouble...
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have talked so much!
There was no other way, the boss gave the order, and he, a small waiter, had no choice but to obey the order.
I still expect others to pay me for my food.
…
Zhubi Town is to the north of Zhubi Mountain, and Huangshizhuang is to the south of Zhubi Mountain.
To go to the Yamen of Zhubi Town, you have to climb over Zhubi Mountain.
The reason why Pig Nose Mountain is called Pig Nose Mountain is because the roads leading in and out of the mountain are two cave corridors. These two cave corridors and the mountain behind form a pattern like a pig's head.
Taking advantage of the early weather, Niu Yuanping hurried into the mountain.
At the beginning, the weather was quite clear, but unexpectedly, about an hour after walking, fog began to form in the mountains.
The fog is getting thicker and thicker, so thick that it is difficult to see things two meters away.
"I forgot to read the almanac when I went out! What a bad luck."
Niu Yuanping, standing in the mist, frowned.
"We can only go back."
Following the route I remembered, I followed the foggy mountain road and turned back in the direction of Huangshizhuang.
I don't know how long I've been gone.
Niu Yuanping suddenly realized that something was not right.
He actually got lost!
By this time, the sun had already set.
The mountains are already eerie, and with the sun going down, it's really scary to be alone in the mountains.
Niu Yuanping's face was a little ugly. After what he had experienced, he didn't want to walk here at night.
The only strange thing is that I lost too much time before getting lost, so I could only bite the bullet and find the way quickly.
It's a pity that it gets dark too quickly.
Looking at the dark mountain col, Niu Yuanping couldn't help feeling panicked.
The more panicked you are, the harder it is to find a way out.
Soon, it was completely dark.
But fortunately the fog had dispersed and there was still a little moonlight. Niu Yuanping used the moonlight to walk among the weeds and trees.
He couldn't get out all the time, and he was so anxious that his forehead was sweating a little.
In this way, after wandering in the woods for more than an hour, I still couldn't find the way out of the mountain.
Niu Yuanping had no choice but to stop and calm down.
In the moonlight, he saw a rocky depression under a grassy slope.
Not a single blade of grass grows there within a radius of five feet.
The reason why he paid special attention to that place was because Niu Yuanping realized that he had passed by this place several times.
"Can't I just keep spinning around here?"
Niu Yuanping's eyes flashed slightly.
After some thought, he immediately turned around and ran in the opposite direction of the rocky depression.
Ignoring the scratches on his skin caused by thorns and bumps under his feet, Niu Yuanping ran in the forest.
However, after two sticks of incense, he was out of breath and stopped.
What appeared in front of me was still the rocky depression under the grassy slope!
It's really spinning!
"Did you encounter a ghost and hit the wall?"
Niu Yuanping stared at the depression and swallowed.
Then he gritted his teeth, summoned up the courage, and walked towards the rocky depression.
As I got closer, I found a larger stone in the center of the pile of rocks. On this stone, there was a seedling growing.
It is the only one within five feet, so it is particularly conspicuous at this time.
Niu Yuanping became curious and walked closer to take a look.
When I looked at it, I found that it was actually a ginseng!
I have heard before that ginseng has spiritual powers.
If you really encounter a ghost and beat the wall, then this ginseng plant may not be simple.
If you can't get out, it's probably it that's causing trouble!
So Niu Yuanping mustered up his courage and stood still.
Facing the ginseng on the big rock, he said loudly: "Elf in the mountain, please forgive me for being ignorant and entering your area by mistake! Please be noble and let me go out of the mountain!"
When he said this, Niu Yuanping kept staring at the ginseng. He was already convinced that there was something wrong with that thing.
really.
Not long after he finished speaking, an old voice came from Ginseng: "Do you need gold?"
Sure enough it’s not simple!
Niu Yuanping was startled and instinctively wanted to run away.
Can be thought of immediately.
If you really fall into this trap, you won't be able to escape!
My back was soaked with cold sweat.
Resisting the urge to run away, he saluted it and said, "Boy... I don't want anything... I just want... I just want to leave Bi Di, please be kind to the elves!"
The ginseng did not pick up the stubble, just shook its branches, and used its roots to hold up a golden object.
"This is gold. I have a lot of gold that I can give to you." After saying that, he threw the gold to Niu Yuanping, and the gold rolled to his feet and stopped.
Niu Yuanping swallowed and looked at the ground.
Bravely, I bent down to pick it up in my hand and look at it carefully.
But soon, he looked confused.
"Is this gold?"
To be continued...
