Nightmare Attack

Chapter 1464 Departure
"That's one of yours. I remember her name is Lu Qin."

"Why did she appear there? Did you go back to the mourning hall after you left last night?"

Facing General Yuwen's aggressiveness, Jiang Cheng remained calm, "General, you misunderstood. Although Lu Qin came to the mansion with us, she is not from us, and we are not familiar with each other."

"That's right, we all came here at the invitation of Lord Hou." Yao Shunyu said at the right time.

"We were all busy stealing hydrangeas last night, so we don't have time to go back to the mourning hall."

Everyone supported Jiangcheng one after another. After all, General Yuwen's posture was obviously trying to make use of it.

Seeing that this set didn't work, General Yuwen changed the topic, "Forget it, everyone is dead, so I won't pursue this matter anymore. The Marquis will pay her reward, and the masters worked hard to bring the money to her." Her family."

"General." Jiang Cheng pretended to be polite.

General Yuwen waved his hand, and his eyes became more subtle, "Masters, how did you complete the task last night, that hydrangea?"

Fatty took out the hydrangea hidden in the package with great insight, and handed it to General Yuwen through Jiang Cheng's hand.

At this time, the hydrangea has been mended by the fat man, and there is no flaw at all. The fat man's needlework has shown everyone.

General Yuwen held the hydrangea, looked it up and down carefully, then passed it to the soldiers beside him, smiled and nodded to the people in Jiangcheng, "Very good, with this hydrangea, I believe Lord Hou's illness will get better soon. , Thank you for your hard work, masters."

"The general is serious, I wait for my duty."

People have to bow their heads under the eaves, and the mature and prudent Zhang Qizheng is just right with the world.

The corners of General Yuwen's mouth turned up, as if he was very satisfied with them, "Master Hou is not feeling well, it is not convenient to see you, I will convey some words for you, Lord Hou hopes that you will go to Chunshen Lake today to find out the truth about that ghost building .”

Everyone took a deep breath when they heard the words, and finally came a secret thought. Li Bai asked, "When are we going to leave?"

"The sooner the better, the food and water bags have been prepared for the masters? You can start at any time."

He thought for a moment, and asked for confirmation: "General, Chunshen Lake is tens of miles away from here. The mountain road is rugged and difficult. Even if we set off now, it may be difficult to arrive before dark."

General Yuwen said with relief: "Masters, please rest assured that we have already made arrangements. You will meet a village on the way to Chunshen Lake. You can rest in that village. After you are fully prepared, It’s not too late to go to Chunshen Lake to investigate.”

"The village?"

"Yes, it is a fishing village, not far from Chunshen Lake. No one is more familiar with the situation of Chunshen Lake than them. You can ask them all questions." General Yuwen said lightly.

Hearing that he was going to spend the night in a deserted village, the fat man panicked subconsciously, which brought back some bad memories in him, "What's the name of this village?"

"Riaotou Village."

The moment these three words were uttered, a gust of wind blew up in the open space for no reason, and the wind blew through the gaps between the branches and leaves, making a shrill sound like a ghost crying.

"Rice Head Village"

General Yuwen ignored everyone's different expressions at all, and reached out to take out a piece of paper and a black wooden sign from his pocket.

"This piece of paper marks the route to Daotou Village. As for how to find Chunshen Lake, the villagers there will tell you."

"You have to keep this wooden sign carefully. It represents your identity. The wooden sign has the imprint of our Marquis Mansion. Those villagers will know who you are when they see it, and they dare not disrespect you."

General Yuwen handed over two things to Jiangcheng, and then the sound of horseshoes sounded not far away, and before everyone recovered, several horses were led by his servants.

General Yuwen caressed the leading brown horse, "It's a long way to go, so I invite all the masters to ride the horses, and I can still have some energy left."

Seeing that there were only 8 horses, and there were only 8 of them left, Tang Qisheng hurriedly asked: "General, are only 8 of us going? The mountain road is rugged, and there is no one who is familiar with the terrain to lead the way. We are afraid that we will."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by General Yuwen, who smiled and said: "This master is worrying too much. This is all arranged by the Marquis. There will be no mistakes. That Daotou Village is easy to find."

The matter has come to this point, and it is inconvenient for everyone to say more. The group of people took their things and left with their horses. After walking a long way, Jiang Cheng turned around, and saw General Yuwen and others still standing in place, motionless, watching them go away with a stiff expression .

The person who led the way led them all the way to the gate of Hou's Mansion. At this moment, the gate of Hou's Mansion was opened, and there was a stone street outside the gate.

Seeing this situation, Jiang Cheng's eyes could not help but change, and he asked the soldiers leading the way in a low voice: "This is the main entrance of the Hou Mansion, are we sure we want to go out from here?"

The soldier who led the way nodded his head without looking back, and replied in a low voice: "That's right, this is all arranged by General Yuwen."

Only a few tens of meters away from the Hou's Mansion, he heard a strange sound, turned his head, and saw that the gate of the Hou's Mansion behind him was gradually closing, and after a "bang", the last gap disappeared.

Tang Qisheng's face darkened, "I didn't go through the side door, but went out through the main door. It's predicted that we won't end well."

The fat man also found it weird, and looked at Jiang Cheng habitually, and the latter explained: "An ancient general went out to fight, and if he knew that the trip was extremely dangerous, he would arrange for someone to drag a coffin behind his ponytail and leave the mansion through the front door, which means If you don't win the victory, you will go back to the coffin."

"After a long time, everyone has begun to avoid such a custom, and going out at the front door has more meanings that it is gone forever."

The fat man was stunned for a while, thinking that the people in the Hou Mansion are really bad and smoking, no wonder the first wife of General Guo wanted to kill them all, they really should be killed, there is no good thing.

According to the map, a group of people quickly left the bustling market and came to a country dirt road. The road became more and more rugged, and the nearby vegetation grew amazingly, even if someone hid in it, they couldn't see it at all.

Tang Qizheng has a lot of research on horses. When he was free on the road, the horses under his crotch did not seem tall and mighty. This is because these horses are not good at explosive power, they are good at endurance, and they are very obedient.

The road was very calm, the road became more and more remote, and finally there was almost no road. The people of Jiangcheng Yao, Shunyu checked the map many times, and found that there was no problem, and it was indeed in this direction.

Unknowingly, moisture rose in the nearby forest, and then a blank mist rose from all directions, enveloping them.

There was a rustling sound in the mist, as if something was approaching quickly.
