Tie the ox cart against the rock wall, then take out the medicine powder prepared on the ox cart and sprinkle it along the ox cart. These medicine powders can effectively drive away snakes and insects that appear at night.

They will spend the night in the wild.

Because they miscalculated, the several villages in the vicinity were no longer inhabited, and what was left were some ruins. It seems that these villages had a big fire and were burned down.

However, it is very likely that they were robbed by bandits, because there are some bones with traces of burning under the ruins. And on these bones, there are obvious marks of cutting.

In troubled times, human life is the cheapest.

Tan Mo and his senior brother could only recite the Sutra of Rebirth and left directly.

Since they couldn't find anyone, they could only sleep in the ox cart. Fortunately, this is the oxcart of Prince Teng's mansion. Unlike the oxcarts in the market, it has four wheels, so the carriage space is not small, and the layout is not worse than the guest rooms of wealthy families. It is just not convenient for washing. There is no water source nearby, so the water on the oxcart should be used sparingly.

He found some dry firewood on the spot, ignited some hay with flint, slowly ignited the dead branches, and then expanded the fire.

This pile of fire needs to burn until midnight.

It is not enough to prevent snakes and insects, but also to prevent wild beasts. In this mountainous area, at night, there are bound to be wild beasts coming out to look for food. Wild beasts that have been hungry for a day will eat people.

But this is not enough. After watching for a while, the lotus monk went to cut some bamboo nearby.

"Little brother, insert these bamboos around the oxcart, and then connect them with this red rope."

Tan Mo did not ask why. He took the bamboo and inserted it around the oxcart as his senior brother said. The distance between the two bamboos was controlled by him to look about the same.

Finally, use red ropes to connect the bamboos.

When the Lotus Monk saw that Tan Mo had finished, he took out four Bagua mirrors, tied them with red ropes, and pointed them in four directions.

"Little Junior Brother, Princess, if you suddenly wake up tonight, no matter who calls you or what they are doing, don't go out." The Lotus Monk warned.

Tan Mo knew that his senior brother must have seen something, so he nodded and said that he would do it.

The little princess was very curious, looked left and right, and then asked: "Uncle Lotus, will anyone come at night? There is obviously no one living nearby?"

"Yes, after all, they have been hungry for so long, and it is rare for them to meet us. They always want to come and get something to eat." The Lotus Monk said meaningfully.

"Senior Brother, do you want to keep watch?" Tan Mo couldn't help asking.

"Okay, you stay in the first half of the night, and I stay in the second half of the night." The Lotus Monk heard what Tan Mo said, and nodded for the sake of caution.

Hearing what Tan Mo and the Lotus Monk said, the little princess had already understood what was going on. Someone will come at night, but the person who comes is just in human form...

So, the little princess climbed into the ox cart at once.

When the Lotus Monk saw this scene, he couldn't help laughing. He shook his head and said to Tan Mo: "Little Junior Brother, get ready. Go and cook a pot of porridge. You can add more water. You may have to cook it all night. After all, staying up late makes you hungry."

"Yes, Senior Brother."

Tan Mo washed the rice and set up the pot. After a while, he finished all these, and then squatted by the campfire, carefully controlling the fire.

Crackling, crackling.

Listening to the sound of burning dry firewood, Tan Mo couldn't help looking far away. This is a place halfway up the mountain, but the terrain is relatively open. Looking from a distance, it is already dark, and the darkness is like a thick fog, adding a bit of mystery. A closer place, because he has been there, although he can't see clearly, but Tan Mo still knows what is there.

It gets dark very quickly.

Tonight is overcast, and there is no light in the sky. In this darkness, the only light was the bonfire next to the oxcart.

The big black ox was lying quietly under the oxcart, slowly chewing the grass beside its mouth.

Tan Mo then came to the carriage, leaned against the wheel, looked at the pot of porridge swaying left and right on the bonfire, and began to lose his mind. It is much slower to cook porridge than to cook rice, especially with this bonfire that disperses heat. It takes about an hour to cook this pot of porridge.

When the porridge was cooked, it suddenly began to drizzle, so Tan Mo hurriedly carried the pot and ran into the carriage.

"The weather is not good." The lotus monk who was telling a story to the little princess saw this scene, closed the window, took off the rosary in his hand, and hung it on the door.

Then he took out a scripture and put it at the end of the carriage.

"It seems that I can't sleep well tonight."

"Brother, is it so serious?" Tan Mo couldn't help asking.

"There are many lonely ghosts in those villages." Lotus monk sighed and said the root of the problem.

Tan Mo finally understood why his senior brother was so cautious. He thought there were only one or two or three ghosts of unknown origin at first, but he didn't expect there would be more than ten or even dozens of them.

"Senior brother, why didn't you leave this place at night?" Tan Mo asked.

"It was getting dark, and we couldn't get out at that time. If we wanted to get out, we could only wait until tomorrow morning, until the first beam of sunlight appeared, to find a way out." Lotus monk said.

Tan Mo was shocked.

But then he thought that there was a large group of ominous things haunting this place, and it was normal for this place to become a dark land on earth.

No wonder they haven't run into any pedestrians since they arrived here. This place must be a famous ghost place.

Tan Mo: o(╥﹏╥)o.

Tan Mo was scared, and the little princess was not much better. After the two looked at each other, they shrank into the corner of the carriage at the same time.

Being close together and feeling each other's warmth made them feel better.

The Lotus Monk looked at this scene and couldn't help but smile. He laughed dumbly and said, "The porridge is ready. You two can drink some first, and it's not too late to shrink back! But with this poor monk here, can you get into trouble?"

The little princess couldn't help but glance at Tan Mo, then pouted her lips and muttered, "Coward."

Tan Mo didn't say anything, but just gave her an expression: ^(*￣(oo)￣)^.

The little princess wanted to say something, but at this moment, the Lotus Monk lifted the lid of the pot, smelled the strong aroma of rice porridge, and snorted, then ran to the Lotus Monk, staring at the pot of steaming white porridge.

Tan Mo followed, and the Lotus Monk filled a bowl and handed it to Tan Mo.

Reaching out to catch it and stirring it with chopsticks, Tan Mo wanted to cool it down before drinking it, but at this moment, he suddenly heard a voice coming from outside the car.

"It smells so good, it smells so good! Can I have a sip? If no one speaks, then I will take it as your consent!"
