"I wonder what the monster Brother Lin saw looks like?"

"To be honest, I have never seen my true face."

"Um?"

"I really didn't see it clearly."

"That's such a shame."

Huang Quan lowered his head as if thinking.

"Then Brother Lin, where are you looking at me?"

Lin Jue suddenly said a sinister voice next to him.

I thought it was a joke, so I turned around and saw Huang Quan slowly raising his head. In the dimness, there was a monster's face——

It has a fierce face with a long mouth, intertwined fangs, and green eyes.

"!"

Lin Jue was suddenly startled.

The face suddenly came closer to him.

Deng Deng Deng——

Lin Jue instinctively took a few steps back.

At the same time, a breath of fire has reached the throat.

Looking at the monster again, there was a bang and a cloud of smoke appeared. Then it turned around and quickly disappeared in the smoke.

"this?"

Lin Jue couldn't help but be surprised and suspicious.

Is this person actually a demon?

Are there really ghosts on this road?

Where did he go?

"Gudong..."

Lin Jue swallowed his saliva and looked around. He saw nothing but empty space. He didn't dare to waste it easily and swallowed his anger again.

He took out the knife from the book and waited cautiously for a while, but there was no movement around him.

It's like he has completely left.

Lin Jue still looked left and right, his eyes saw the dark night of the barren mountains and the boundless bamboo forest. After the rain, the clouds opened and the moonlight appeared, making the gravel road as white as jade. The barren mountains and bamboo forests were outlined, but they did not appear bright because of it.

Under this cold light, it becomes even more profound.

I am alone on a mountain night, and the puddles on the road are full of silver light.

I feel uneasy when I leave, and I feel uneasy when I stay.

Lin Jue listened carefully and found that at some point, the business travelers in front had already walked far away, and the ringing was almost inaudible. He immediately knew in his heart that it might not be easy to catch up with others.

After a while, I suddenly heard a cry from behind:

"Monster!!"

His voice was full of fear, as if his throat was about to be torn.

That kind of fear seems to be contagious and makes people shiver.

Did other people also encounter monsters?

Just listen to the sound of footsteps moving forward.

Lin Jue quickly grasped the knife. The feel of the handle and the weight of the blade made him feel much more at ease.

Gritting his teeth again, the young man's energy and blood surged up, and for a moment, all the surprise and anxiety in his heart was transformed into the feeling of being intimidated and threatened.

Village elders often say that when a person dies, he or she becomes a ghost. Ghosts are weaker than humans. Mountain monsters who gain enlightenment will not become much stronger unless they are originally ferocious beasts or have already reached a very deep spiritual level. Even foxes that become spirits will be afraid of ferocious dogs and rats.

Rabbits that become spirits are still afraid of cats and hawks. Centipedes, snakes and insects that become spirits are eventually conquered by chickens and ducks. Humans are not weak, so most demons and ghosts harm people by taking advantage of the situation or by seducing and deceiving them. Therefore, there are demons that arise from humans.

statement.

Lin Jue felt calm in his heart, with strong vitality, no illness or disaster, and even maintained his energy for two months. At this time, his anger surged, and he deliberately controlled his thoughts, and his heart immediately calmed down.

This method is really effective and has immediate results.

I even want to look around and ask, where are the evil monsters here? Do they dare to come out and fight me?

Which one is more powerful, minions or blades?

"Tap tap tap..."

There was a sound of hurried footsteps and horse hooves.

Lin Jue turned around and saw that there were no monsters in the moonlight. There was just a pedestrian who was also frightened by the monsters. He ran near him, but did not dare to go forward. He was half-hidden in the moonlight in the bamboo forest.

"Who...who?"

That man also saw Lin Jue and shouted in panic.

"I! I'm human!"

Lin Jue replied loudly.

"Are you human?"

"It's human!"

"There are...there are monsters in this mountain!"

"Did you see it too?"

Lin Jue stood firm and stared at this man.

This man also didn't move, and he didn't dare to approach him easily.

The two talked at a distance.

"Have you encountered it too?"

That man was as surprised as Lin Jue.

"That's right."

Lin Jue felt no fear at this time, so he responded decisively: "The monster pretended to be a human and walked with me, chatting, and suddenly showed his true form and threatened me. Most likely he wanted to scare away my courage. Seeing that it failed, he

Suddenly a cloud of smoke appeared and left temporarily."

"It's the same one I met! Exactly the same!"

The man subconsciously took two steps towards Lin Jue, but stopped quickly, still retaining some vigilance: "Are you really a human?"

"I'm really human."

"Where do you live?"

"Next door county, Shucun."

"Shu Cun? I've been there!"

"Have you been there?"

"But everyone in the village is named Shu, the one with the three bridges?"

"Huh? Shucun is indeed a village with the surname Shu, but the whole village is built across a stream. There are bridges everywhere, but there are only three?"

"call……"

The man seemed to have succeeded in testing, and he breathed a sigh of relief, but continued to ask: "What is your name?"

"My surname is Lin Mingjue."

"That's not right!" The vigilance in his words came back, "Shu Cun's surname is Shu, why is your surname Lin? No, no!"

"We are immigrants and have a long history with the Shucun people. We finally settled in Shucun."

"..."

"If you don't believe me, I will get out of the way and let you go first."

"Still not right!"

"So what?"

"I met a monster and was very frightened. You also met a monster. Why didn't I hear your exclamation?" The man was very suspicious and seemed to be scared out of his wits. "And I even doubted you.

Why don’t you doubt me at all and don’t ask me a single question?”

"To be honest, I have always been bold, not to mention that I have seen monsters before. Although I know that they are strange, if I am particularly afraid of them because of this, I will be put into a weak position."

Lin Jue said for a moment, then his tone suddenly became serious:

"The reason why I don't doubt you or question you is because I feel that meeting you by chance in the mountains is fate. Since I want to go with you, I should retain some trust! If you are also a human being, I will have no doubts about you.
