Past Legends of the Mountain Gods

Where there are living people, there will be dead people.When there are more living people, there is popularity, and when there are more dead people, there is Yin Qi.The place where the living and the dead coexist is usually called a "haunted house".

On the desolate abandoned capital, there is a "Haunted House" that is famous all over the country. It is said that it used to be the former residence of the Genji family, so it is called "The Haunted House of Genji".

Back then, when the abandoned capital was destroyed, the fire burned for several days and nights. There should have been ruins left, but unexpectedly there was a house that was unscathed in the fire.The people who survived at that time thought that it was a place blessed by gods, and went in one after another to hide.

At that time, there were also a few people who believed that if a god could not protect his own temple, how could he protect other people's houses?It's just that such rhetoric cannot solve practical problems, and of course it cannot stop the hungry and cold people.

Then, of course, something happened.The people who lived there, without exception, all died unexpectedly.The house was finally vacant.

Over the long years, the house has been eroded by wind and rain, and it remains the same as before, as if someone has always lived in it and repaired the house.

There have also been curious people who broke in regardless of the legend of the "haunted house", but in the end they only added a name to the long list of deaths.

"right here?"

Si Liushangshen is now standing outside this house, she looked up at the plaque on the main entrance, it is indeed something old, but it is too clean.

Within a mile around the house, not a single blade of grass grows.A mile away, overgrown wild animals are taller than people.

"Haven't you been to the famous Genji Haunted House?" Zi Bei looked very calm, "I don't know how many ghosts there are here."

The big cat was very excited, running around on the ground, ignoring the weird atmosphere outside the "Haunted House".

"Genji's haunted house?" Si Liu muttered, then turned to Zi Bei and asked, "Could it be Yuan Shifeng's family?"

"By the way, it belongs to their family." Zi Bei clapped her hands, "Let's go in."

After all, Zi Bei didn't wait for Si to stay, she went straight to the outside of the gate, and pushed the door open with both hands.That natural posture is like returning home.

Si Liu hesitated for a moment, but still followed.She knew that in this so-called "Genji Haunted House", the souls of all those who died here disappeared without a trace. In the past, the mountain sent people to investigate, and there was no serious conclusion.Moreover, the previous mountain didn't seem to care about it.

There must be secrets hidden in such a place, it is obviously too reckless to just go in like this——while thinking about this, Si stayed behind and followed Zi Bei and walked in.

"Big cat, let's go."

The big cat stretched out its paw and licked it, then stretched itself, then quickly ran behind Si Liu, and followed step by step.

The world inside the gate is completely different from what I imagined.It's not as gloomy as imagined, but it looks like a house that people live in all year round. However, there are neither people nor ghosts here.Si Liu could not feel the breath of any living things, nor could he feel the so-called "ghost energy".

"It's been so many years, and I haven't heard of anyone who can challenge our status." After walking through a few courtyards, Si Liu sighed, "Except for the people from the previous mountain, who else can do this?"

In fact, the people who should be suspicious the most are the people from the previous mountain. Without other powers, the only ones who can be suspicious are their own people.It's just that there is no clear evidence.

"Do you still remember where Wei Jin's head was buried?" Zi Bei, who didn't look back over there, suddenly said so leisurely.

"What? What do you want?"

Si Liu looked at Zi Bei's back, feeling creepy.

The man had always been daring.But, having said that, Wei Jin's head really disappeared?Si Liu moved his steps and followed closely behind Zi Bei.

"Meow--"

At this moment, the big cat suddenly let out a ferocious cry, and its sharp claws came out from the pad.At the same time, Si Liu felt threatened from behind.

In the blink of an eye, something has been knocked to the ground.The big cat jumped on the thing, and its sharp claws opened its chest.

It was a humanoid object, but it was obviously not a person, nor was it a ghost. Neither a human nor a ghost would look like this.That ugly and strange appearance is really indescribable.

"What is this?"

Holding the sword, Zibei picked apart the monster's flesh, and the black juice flowed out, without the stench as imagined, and it could even be said to have no smell at all.

"I didn't feel a human breath, and it wasn't a soul, so it couldn't have come down from the mountain, right?" Si Liu was thinking, calling the big cat to come over, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the big cat's paws.

The big cat was still vigilant, its eyes turned around, and its ears seemed to move.

"Don't worry about this, Wei Jin's head is buried in front, let's go and have a look."

Things have come to this point, the danger has stimulated people's thirst for knowledge.After Si Liu helped the big cat clean its paws, he followed Zi Bei up.

If I remember correctly, Wei Jin's head was buried in this yard, under the osmanthus tree.Si Liu stood under the tree, always feeling obedient.

"Strange." Si Liu looked to the left, then looked up, and suddenly realized something, "Zi Bei, do you still remember? The height of this tree?"

"What?" Zibei followed, and after being reminded by Si Liu, she also noticed something strange, "Isn't it? How many years have passed, and this tree hasn't changed at all—"

She muttered: "I'm not staying in an illusion, am I?"

"Illusion?" Si Liu looked around, and suddenly, she noticed the plant in the corner, the half-bloomed flower - she believed her memory would not be wrong.Could it be that the time here is frozen?

It would be weird enough if time could stop at a certain moment.

Even the Holy Mother cannot stop time, so, is this really an illusion?Or a blindfold?

It's not that, the current mana left by Yi Si can't be completely unfeeling.

She suddenly remembered what happened before. At that time, weren't she and Yi Zhao both concealed?At that time, they thought it was the hands and feet of God Duohu.

If not?

Si Liu felt her scalp tingling, as if something beyond her imagination appeared.

"Big cat, what do you think?"

Zi Bei knelt down and asked Big Cat for his opinion, "Are we in an illusion now?"

Her tone was quite joking.But the big cat listened, and gave her a paw suddenly, leaving a scratch on the right wrist.

"It hurts!" Zibei exclaimed, and shouted angrily at the big cat: "The illusion is not a dream, why doesn't it hurt?"

The big cat meowed, acting innocent.

"Come, come, I'll apply the medicine for you." Seeing that something was wrong, Si Liu hurriedly took out a small bottle, poured out the ointment, and wiped it on Zibei's wound.

"what happened?"

Logically speaking, as long as you touch this medicine, such a small wound will heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.Now, there was no response from the wound, as if the medicine had failed.

Si Liu applied some plaster on Zi Bei's hands, but there was still no response.

"careful!"

Zi Bei flashed out his sword and shot down the flying object, but when he took a closer look, he was dumbfounded.

The hole torn open by the big cat, the flesh that was picked apart by the sword, and the black juice oozing out, isn't it the one that was knocked down just now?

The terrible thing is that this time more than one came.

"Come on!"

Zibei yelled and jumped up. When she touched the surroundings out of the corner of her eye, she was so frightened that cold sweat broke out.

Is this endless courtyard really the place I just entered?

Isn't Genji's haunted house surrounded by walls?

Si Liu had already started fighting those monsters, and she found that those monsters had no fighting power, they could be knocked down immediately, but there were too many of them, as if they couldn't be defeated no matter what.

There are countless corpses of monsters piled up on the ground, and there is almost no place to set foot.

"Don't love fighting."

Zi Bei yelled, she grabbed Si Liu, grabbed the big cat, and disappeared among the monsters in a blink of an eye.The monster didn't chase after it, it just stood there in a daze, and suddenly it couldn't move.

And when Si Liu opened his eyes and saw where he was, he felt a chill down his spine.

Isn't this the place just now?The tall osmanthus tree, the half-bloomed flowers in the corner, the only difference is that there are no monsters.

"impossible!"

Two people and one cat continued to move, but found that they could only reach the same place forever, looking at the same scenery, even the sky was the same.

"You see today?"

Following Si Liu's guidance, Zi Bei saw a different place. A lot of time had passed, but the sun was still there, as if it had never moved.

It felt like time had really stopped.

Zi Bei held the sword and slashed at the osmanthus tree, leaving a long sword mark.Then, she pulled Si Liu to another place.

Still in that yard, the traces on the osmanthus trees are fresh.

But after staying for a while, those monsters appeared again.

Two people and one cat tried various methods, but they couldn't get rid of this place.They can leave traces in this yard, but they have no way to destroy those monsters.

It's almost exhausting.

"Why?" Si Liu spread out his hands, "Zi Bei, do you feel tired?"

"Are you tired?" Zibei realized a problem at this time. The two of them and the cat had already changed countless places and knocked down countless monsters, but they didn't feel tired at all.If I have to say something, it's just that I'm a little tired.

It's just that the heart is tired, but the body has not been affected in any way.Although he is already a god and a priest, such a thing is still unreasonable.

"Big cat, are you tired?"

The big cat shook his head.There was a trace of helplessness on that expressive Fu Mao's face.

"How about—" Zi Bei looked around, and his eyes fell on the osmanthus tree, "Let's dig that place."
