Xiangtuo Mountain

A pair of three-inch-long feet, wearing old-fashioned black cloth shoes, quickly shuttled through the dark forest.

From a distance, one could only see a pair of eerie and dark pupils, moving with the sound of footsteps.

Soon, the footsteps came to a wooden house in the mountains.

With a creak, the door was pushed open and footsteps entered the wooden house in the courtyard.

A blood-red light suddenly burst out from the originally dark room, shining on Liu Guihua's wrinkled face.

"Master Ma, help me..."

Early next morning

Ruan Zhao had just gotten up when he heard Qin Mu's cry coming from the yard.

She walked to the window and looked out, and found that it was Qin Zongwu who was leading Qin Ze and Qin Mu in horse stance.

Maybe it was because the acupuncture took too long, Qin Mu kept grinning and crying, and he looked so pitiful!

It was unknown what time these three people got up. Seeing that Qin Zongwu still had beads of sweat on his body, Ruan Zhao guessed that they must have gone out for a run and just came back.

Judging from this situation, Qin Zongwu is a pretty responsible father!

~

After breakfast, Qin Zongwu went to the army.

Because it was Sunday, Qin Ze and Qin Mu had a day off and did not go to school.

Ruan Zhao came out with a cross-body bag on his back and said to Qin Ze and Qin Mu.

"Xiao Ze, Xiao Mu, Mom has something to go out for, and may not be back for lunch.

Mom has some buns in the kitchen, you can heat them up for lunch."

Qin Mu asked curiously, "Mom, what are you going to do?"

Ruan Zhao replied casually, "I'm going to Green Willow Village to do some business."

Qin Mu's eyes lit up, "Are you going to dig ginseng?"

Ruan Zhao paused, "Xiao Mu, who told you there was ginseng there?"

Qin Mu explained, "I heard from Meng Sanbao that his grandmother lives in Lvliu Village.

Meng Sanbao said that his grandmother dug up a lot of ginseng in the mountains.

He originally wanted me and my brother to go, but my brother wouldn’t let me go.”

Qin Mu said this, glancing at Qin Ze with a bit of resentment.

Ruan Zhao turned to look at Qin Ze, and Qin Ze could only explain.

"Mom, I think Grandma Liu is a little strange. She smells strange, like a ghost, but I don't see any ghosts around her..."

So that’s it!

Liu Guihua was possessed by a ghost, so of course Qin Ze couldn't see it.

However, he was able to see that there was something wrong with Liu Guihua, which showed that he was very perceptive.

"Xiao Ze, when have you met Grandma Liu?"

"Just yesterday after school, she went to pick up Meng Sanbao and Meng Sibao."

Ruan Zhao's pupils tightened, "She went to your school?"

"Yes."

Ruan Zhao's expression became even more tense.

It seems that this ghost has not only come to the family compound, but also to other villagers and even the children in the school.

Qin Ze noticed Ruan Zhao's abnormality and asked curiously, "Mom, is there really something wrong with Grandma Liu?"

Ruan Zhao did not hide it from him, "Yes, she is possessed by a ghost."

When Qin Ze heard this, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes. "So, Mom, you're going to Green Willow Village to deal with this matter?"

"Yeah. This ghost wants to hurt people, so mommy is going to take her away!"

Ruan Zhao said this and prepared to set off.

Qin Ze took one look and quickly grabbed her wrist.

"Mom, can you take me there?"

Ruan Zhao hesitated, then saw Qin Ze's expectant expression and asked curiously, "Aren't you scared? This time it's an evil ghost, very scary."

Qin Ze's eyes flashed, and he quickly made up his mind.

"Not afraid.

The teacher said that practice is more important than learning.

Mom, I have learned how to practice Reiki, so I want to practice it."

Ruan Zhao was amused by his serious look, "But mommy has to deal with the evil spirits, so she may not be able to take care of you."

"It's okay, I can protect myself and won't hold mom back!"

Qin Mu came over when he heard it, "Mom, I want to go too."

Ruan Zhao raised his eyebrows. "Xiao Mu, aren't you afraid of ghosts? Are you sure you want to come with me?"

Qin Mu shrank his neck when the word ghost was mentioned, but he didn't want to stay at home alone.

"I can't see it anyway. Besides, doesn't mom know how to catch ghosts?"

After looking at Qin Ze again and seeing that he really wanted to go, Ruan Zhao agreed.

"Okay, then you have to follow me."

It was just an evil ghost, and she could handle it. Just like Qin Ze said, it was a good opportunity for him to see how to catch ghosts in practice.

After borrowing a 28-inch truck from Wang Shufang's family, Ruan Zhao took his two children to Lvliu Village.

Lvliu Village is to the south of the family compound.

Ruan Zhao rode his bike for more than ten minutes and soon arrived at the destination.

As soon as he entered the village, Ruan Zhao discovered that the entire Green Willow Village was filled with a thick yin energy.

She put one foot on the ground, suddenly stopped, and then looked up at the sky with narrowed eyes.

Qin Ze also found something wrong, "Mom, is there something wrong here?"

"Well, this village is being targeted!"

Qin Mu asked curiously, "Mom, who is watching this place?"

“…Heaven’s Way.”

~

Without stopping for too long, Ruan Zhao rode his bike to Liu Guihua's house again.

Liu Guihua's house is at the west end of the village and is one of the few brick houses in the village.

Meng Jianping was afraid that his mother would be wronged, so he found this family for her.

When they arrived, Ruan Zhao parked his bicycle and took Qin Ze and Qin Mu to the gate of Liu Guihua's house.

The door was not locked, and Ruan Zhao didn't knock. He just pushed the door open and walked in.

Qin Ze was fine, but Qin Mu nervously grabbed Ruan Zhao's arm when he thought he might see a ghost.

"Mom, I'm a little scared."

Ruan Zhao glanced at him, then took out two amulets from the storage ring and gave one to Qin Ze and Qin Mu.

"This is a talisman. If you carry it with you, evil spirits will not come near you."

Qin Mu quickly stuffed the talisman into his trouser pocket when he heard it. "Great, then I won't encounter ghosts this way, right?"

Ruan Zhao stroked his hair in amusement, "You can't see it, so you wouldn't know it even if you met it."

Qin Mu: "..."

Qin Ze held the amulet and stared at the runes on it with curiosity. "Mom, can you also teach me how to draw talisman paper?"

Ruan Zhao was very pleased with Qin Ze's eagerness to learn. "Okay, but you have to wait for more practice. You are too inexperienced now. Even if you learn to paint, it will be useless."

Qin Ze nodded repeatedly when he heard it, "Well, I will definitely practice hard."

~

The three people entered Liu Guihua's house, but the result was just as Ruan Zhao had guessed, the evil ghost did not come back.

Qin Ze couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what should we do now?"

"She should be on the mountain. Let's go find her there." Ruan Zhao said, looking at Qin Mu. "Xiao Mu, do you want to wait here?"

Qin Mu looked directly at Qin Ze, "Brother, are you going with Mom?"

Qin Ze didn't hesitate, "Of course I will."

Qin Mu heard this and decisively took Ruan Zhao's hand. "Then I'll go too."

He would rather see ghosts than stay here alone.

Ruan Zhao smiled helplessly, "Okay, let's go together."

Xiangtuo Mountain is the largest mountain in the military region. Although it covers a large area, its altitude is not too high and the terrain in the mountain is relatively flat.

However, the mountains are rich in vegetation and bushes, and it is easy to get lost once you enter.

Ruan Zhao and his two children came to the foot of the mountain.

She looked up and scanned the direction of the mountain, then counted with her fingers, and her eyes narrowed instantly after she calculated the direction of the evil ghost.

"Oh, it turns out to be a ghost guarding the underworld!"

No wonder he wanted to trick people into going up the mountain. He was looking for prey.

Qin Ze heard this and asked curiously, "Mom, what is a ghost guarding the Yin?"

Ruan Zhao intended to train Qin Ze, so he explained to him seriously, "A Yin-guarding ghost is a kind of ghost that specifically guards other people's Yin gates and absorbs the ghost energy of other ghosts.

Most of these ghosts guard the cemetery. Once a new ghost appears, they will suck away the ghost energy and even devour the soul to increase their own strength.

Once a certain amount of ghost energy is absorbed, it will become an evil ghost.

The evil ghost in Liu Guihua's body has sucked a lot of ghost energy from souls and killed many people!

I guess the villagers of Green Willow Village..."

After hearing this, Qin Mu quickly moved closer to Ruan Zhao. "Mom, are you saying that everyone in this village was eaten by that evil ghost?"

Ruan Zhao did not deny it, and Qin Mu became even more frightened.

~

At this moment, an old voice suddenly came from behind them.

"What do you guys do?"

"Ah!" Qin Mu was startled by the sudden sound.

Ruan Zhao looked back and saw an old man walking towards him with a cane.

She glanced at the old man and her eyes narrowed slightly when she saw the cane in his hand.

As the old man approached, he glanced at the three of them.

"Aren't you from Green Willow Village? What are you doing here?"

Ruan Zhao answered casually. "We heard there's ginseng on this mountain, so we wanted to go look for it."

The old man nodded and said, "Oh, then you better be careful. This mountain is very big. Don't get lost."

"It doesn't matter. We won't go deep into the mountains."

"Well, then you should go as early as possible, and remember to come down the mountain before dark."

"Okay, we get it."

As soon as Ruan Zhao finished speaking, the old man turned around and walked away with a staggering gait.

Qin Mu huddled behind Ruan Zhao, watching the old man walk away, and asked in a low voice.

"Mom, is he a human or a ghost?"

"people!"

Qin Mu was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Ruan Zhao continue speaking.

"But he's not a good person!"

"Ah?" Qin Mu became nervous again when he heard it.

Ruan Zhao stared in the direction of the old man with a dangerous look.

"Don't worry about him, let's go up the mountain first."

"Oh."

After saying this, Ruan Zhao took the two children and climbed up the mountain.

After the three people turned around, the old man who had already walked away turned back.

Looking up again, those old eyes were like poisonous snakes, staring at the backs of the three people.
