    Fuyao noticed a small firefly cowering in the crowd and frowned, “Why are there still women here?”

    Although his tone was not fiery, it was not very kind either, and Xiao Ying lowered her head when she heard it. Xie Ren said, “She was afraid of something happening and came up to take a look.”

    Fuyao asked the bystanders, “Did you guys come up here with her?”

    The crowd was hesitant at first, then said, “I don’t remember.” “Can’t say.” “No, we didn’t have her when we came up here, did we!” “I didn’t see it anyway.” “I didn’t see it either.”

    Xiao Nging busily said, “Because I secretly followed me ……” Little Peng head immediately said, “Why did you sneak up? Are you weak-minded? Are you a ghost groom in disguise?”

    At these words, a large area around Xiao Ying suddenly emptied out, and she waved her hands in a frenzy, saying, “No …… no, I’m Xiao Ying, I’m real!” She said to Xie Ren, “Gongzi, we just met! I put rouge on you and groomed you ……”

    Xie Ren: “……”

    The crowd stared over at him, some began to whisper, and he sporadically heard words like “preference,” “unusual,” and “unbelievable,” and coughed twice, saying: “This, mission requirements. Mission demand. Nanfeng Fuyao, you guys ……”

    When he turned his head, he realized that Nan Feng and Fu Yao had also been staring at him with strange gazes, and were restrained on their feet to pull away from him a little.

    Xie Ren was furrowed by this kind of gaze from them and said, “…… Do you have anything you want to say.”

    How does he know, the girl’s make-up pen is how ghostly, straight to teach him to fix eyebrows and make eyebrows, face as if the jade powder, rouge point Jiang Jiang lips. If you don’t open your mouth, it’s a gentle and gentle beautiful big girl. Caused these two people to look at him and their hearts were shaken, incredulous, skeptical, and uncomfortable. The face was still the same, but it was already completely unaware of what they were actually talking to. Fuyang asked Nan Feng, “What do you have to say.”

    Nan Feng immediately shook his head, “There’s nothing I want to say.”

    “……” said Cheri, “you might as well say something.”

    At that moment, the crowd said, “Huh? This is a Bright Light Temple?” “There’s actually a Bright Light Temple in this mountain? Rare, I’ve never seen one before.”

    The crowd looked up in wonder. Xie Ren, however, suddenly said, “Yes, the Temple of Bright Light.”

    Nan Feng heard something different in his tone and said, “What’s wrong?”

    Xie Ren said, “The north is clearly General Mingguang’s territory, and it’s not like his incense isn’t strong, and his magical power isn’t strong, but why is there only the Nanyang Temple at the bottom of Junshan Mountain with Junshan Mountain?”

    That official to Shen Wu Da Di praying for blessings, is very understandable, because Shen Wu Da Di is the first thousand years of the first god of martial arts, the status is higher than the General Ming Guang, naturally, the higher the higher the more insurance. But General Mingguang and General Nanyang equal status, the difference is not much, really, this General Mingguang but there are nine thousand palaces, more than Nanyang one thousand, really can not figure out, why must be close to seek far away. He also said: “according to reason, even if with the jun mountain in this one bright light temple was that ghost groom dove into the magpie’s nest, bystanders can not find it, but obviously can build another bright light temple, why build other martial arts temple?”

    Fuyao realized and said, “There must be another reason.”

    Xie Ren said, “Yes, there must be some other reason why the people around the area with Jun Mountain chose to never build a bright light temple again. Any of you lend me some more mana, I’m afraid I have to go ask ……”

    At that moment, someone yelled, “So many brides!”

    Upon hearing that the sound was coming from the temple, Xie Ren turned around violently. He had told this group of people to stay properly in the open space in front of the temple, they had actually ignored it and ran into the temple!

    Nan Feng drank, “The situation is dangerous, don’t run around!”

    That little Peng Tou said, “Don’t listen to them, they won’t dare to touch us! We’re good people, they won’t dare to kill us. Everyone get up, get up, get up!”

    He actually ate the three people will not really break them, unscrupulous up. Nanfeng knuckles clicking, looks like holding back curses. But as the temple of the temple of the temple of Nan Yang military officer, he really can not arbitrarily break the arms and legs of which mortals, teach which monitor of the magistrate found to go to report a complaint, that is not fun. Little Peng Tou heatedly sneered again, ”Don’t think I can’t see what you guys are up to. Isn’t it that you want to trick us into not moving and monopolize the credit so that you can go get the reward yourself?”

    He incited so much that half of the people were actually dumbfounded and ran into the temple after him. Fu Yao flicked his sleeve and said indifferently, “Let them go. This group of unruly people.” Actually disgusted to the extreme, do not want to care. And in the Temple of Bright Light, there was another tragic scream, “These are dead people!”

    Little Peng Tou was also shocked and said, “All dead?!” “All dead!” “Wicked, how come this looks like it’s been dead for decades and still hasn’t rotted?” Not two clicks, he immediately thought again, “It’s okay to be dead. Carry the bride’s body down the mountain, their families still have to pay for it?”

    Xie Ren’s gaze gradually sank. And when the crowd thought about it, it was the truth. Some sighed, some muttered, and some were happy again. Xie Ren stood up to the entrance of the temple and said: ”Everyone had better come out first. This back of the temple has no wind for years for corpse qi to settle, and it’s going to be a problem for an ordinary person to inhale it into their body.”

    This sounds reasonable, the crowd is not sure if they should listen or not, Xiao Ying whispered, “Let’s not be like this, right? It’s so dangerous here, why don’t we listen to this gentleman first and go out and sit down ……”

    But this group of people didn’t even listen to the words of Xie Ren’s few people, so where would they listen to her? No one cared. Xiao Nging was not discouraged and said it a few more times. Little Peng also taught them, “Everyone pick the fresh corpses tightly, too old corpses, their families don’t know if they’re alive anymore, so don’t bother carrying them down.” There were actually a few people who praised him for being smart and capable. Xie Ren couldn’t help but laugh and cry when he heard this, and when he saw someone move his hand, he said, “Don’t uncover the cover! That cover can block the corpse qi and yang qi. There are too many of you with too much yang qi, if you suck them in, there’s no guarantee that something won’t happen.”

    However, a group of people in order to pick fresh corpses, early to the cover are lifted a seven or eight. Xie Ren and Nan Feng who came to the door looked at each other, shook his head, knowing that he couldn’t stop this group of people, after all, he couldn’t beat them to the point that they couldn’t move with blood in their mouths, so in case something happened later, wouldn’t it be impossible to teach them to run away? They were helpless. At this time, a big man lifted the cover of a bride, said: “My mama, this little lady is really beautiful to the sky!”

    The crowd gathered around and said, “This door hasn’t even been passed, right? It’s a shame to die like this.” “The clothes are a bit tattered, but this is the most beautiful!”

    This bride probably died not long ago, the skin on her face is still quite elastic, someone said: “Dare to touch a couple of handfuls?” Little Peng head said: “What don’t you dare?” Said in the corpse face screwed two, only feel slippery slippery call people itchy, still want to touch, Xie Ren really can not stand to see, was about to stop, small firefly but has rushed over, said: “Do not be like this!”

    Little Pengtou backhanded him and pushed, saying, “Don’t get in the way of the great lords!”

    Nging, however, climbed back up and said, “You guys are really going to be punished by heaven for this!”

    Little Pengtou was on fire and said, “Fuck, you ugly bastard are really ugly in person!”

    He cursed and went to kick, Xie Ren a hand in the back of the small firefly collar, gently carry her to carry away. Who knows, only to hear a “thud”, small peng head shouted, said: “Who hit me!”

    Xie Ren turned back to look, he was actually head broken and bloody, his head was smashed out a big hole, and a blood-stained stone fell on the ground. Xiao Nging froze, busy saying, “Sorry sorry sorry, I …… I was afraid, accidentally threw it ……”

    However, even if she grabbed an admission, no one would believe it anymore. Because, the direction was not right at all. The stone was thrown in from a window behind Little Peng Tou. As soon as Xiao Peng Tou called out just now, the crowd looked in that direction, and happened to see a silhouette passing by outside the window.

    Little Peng Tou exclaimed strangely, “It’s him! It’s that ugly bastard with the bandaged face!”

    Xie Ren shoved the little firefly into Nan Feng’s hand, took two steps up, gently propped his right hand on the window pane, flipped over, and chased after them towards the woods. In addition, there are also a few bold who want to take the reward also followed him to jump out of the window. But chased to the edge of the woods, Xie Ren suddenly smelled a bloody gas, sensed something wrong, his heart alert, fiercely brake step, said: “Do not go in!”

    He has voiced a reminder, but those people think you do not chase just I chase, the foot actually does not stop, rushed straight into the woods. Originally gathered in the temple of the crowd also surged out, see Xie Ren stopped at the edge of the woods, not so big guts will also follow the spectators. Not long after, only heard a few screams, the woods stumbled out of a few black shadows, it was the first to rush in a few people. These several black shadows out of the woods askew, walked to the moonlight, the crowd look, immediately flew out of their minds.

    You went in as a living man, how come you came out as a bloody man?

    From their faces to their clothes, these people were all covered with bloodstains, and blood was pouring out of them. If a person left so much blood, they would never survive. However, they were still walking towards this side step by step, the crowd was so scared that they backed up in unison until they were behind Xie Ren, who raised her hand and said, “Calm down. The blood is not theirs.”

    Sure enough, the guys said, “Yeah! The blood isn’t ours, it’s …… it’s ……”

    Face full of blood can not hide their face panic color, a group of people follow their gaze toward the woods. In the darkness, it is not clear what is inside the woods, Xie Ren took a torch, walked a few steps forward, holding it forward to explore. In the darkness, something dripped onto the torch, emitting a “zipping” sound. He took a look at the torch, moved his eyes upwards, and after a moment’s fixation, raised his hand and threw the torch.

    Even though the torch that had been thrown up only illuminated the sky above for a split second, everyone could see clearly what was above the trees.

    Long black hair, a ghastly white face, tattered military uniforms, and arms hanging in the air swaying back and forth.

    The corpses of more than forty men, high and low, swaying and hanging upside down on the trees. The blood had been flowing for an unknown period of time, but it hadn’t even dried up yet, dripping and dripping, creating a horrifying scene of upside down corpses in the forest and blood raining down.

    Although this group of people outside are all strong men, but where have seen such a battle? All of them were so scared that they froze and were silent. And the south wind and Fu shao over to see this scene, both are a condensation of color.

    A moment later, Nan Feng said, “Green Ghost.”

    Fuyuki said, “Indeed, it’s his favorite trick.”

    Nan Feng said to Xie Ren, “Don’t go over there. It’s a bit troublesome if it’s him.”

    Xie Ren turned around and asked, “Who are you talking about?”

    Nanfeng said, “A ‘nearly absolute’.”

    Xie Ren wondered, “What does it mean to be near absolute, close to absolute?”

    Fu Yao said, “Not bad. The ‘Nearly Jedi’ Green Ghost is a ferocious creature that was evaluated as being in a realm very close to ‘Jedi’ in the Hall of Spiritual Writings. He is very fond of this game of hanging upside down in the forest of corpses, and can be considered to be notorious.”

    Xie Ren said, “This is really unnecessary. If it is absolute, it is absolute, and if it is not, it is not. Just as there is only ‘ascended’ and ‘not ascended’, there is no such thing as ‘close to ascending’ and ‘about to ascend There is no such thing as ‘close to ascension’ and ‘about to ascend’. Adding the word ‘near’, on the contrary, teaches one to be a bit embarrassed.”

    He also recalled that when the young man held him all the way forward, there was a sound of rain hitting the surface of the umbrella. Could it be that he was holding the umbrella in order to shield him from the rain of blood in the forest of corpses? At that moment, gently “ah” sound. The two immediately asked: “What’s wrong?”

    He then put himself in the sedan chair met a young man, that young man and how to bring him here briefly said. At the end, Fu Yao will be skeptical: “This mountain maze I realized when I came up, very dangerous, he just so casually broken?”

    Xie Ren thought to himself, “It wasn’t casual at all. He just casually stepped on it and didn’t even put it in his eyes.” He said, “Not bad. This ‘Nearly Jedi’ Green Ghost that you guys are talking about, could it be him?”

    Nan Feng thought for a moment and said, “I’ve never seen a green ghost before, so I can’t say. Does this teenager you saw have any characteristics?”

    Xie Ren said, “Silver Butterfly.”

    When Nan Feng and Fu Yao saw the sight of the upside down corpse forest just now, their behavior could be completely described as calm. As soon as these words were uttered, Xie Ren clearly saw that the expressions on their faces had all changed instantly.

    Fuyao said incredulously, ”What did you say? Silver Butterfly? What kind of silver butterfly?”

    Xie Ren sensed that he probably said something extraordinary and said, “It seems like silver and crystal, not like a living thing. However, it looks quite beautiful.”

    He saw that the two Nanfeng Fuyao looked at each other, and their faces were both extremely ugly, almost glowing green.

    Only after a long time did Fuyao say in a deep voice, “Go. Go at once.”

    Xie Ren said, “This side of the ghost groom has not yet been resolved, how can I leave?”

    Fuyuki said, “Settle?”

    He turned back around and laughed coldly, “It seems that you really have tarried on earth for too long. This ghost groom is nothing but a ‘fierce’; even this green ghost hanging upside down in the forest of corpses, though a headache, is nothing but a ‘near-deadly’.”

    After another beat, he turned sternly, “But do you know what the owner of that silver butterfly is?”

    Xie Ren truthfully said, “I don’t know.”

    “……” Fu Yao said stiffly, “I don’t know right now there is no time to talk about it. Anyway it’s not something you can deal with, you’d better hurry back to the Heavenly Realm first to move help.”

    Xie Ren said, “Then you go back first.”

    “You ……”

    Xie Ren said: “The owner of that silver butterfly has not shown any malice. And if he harbors malice and is really as terrifying as you say, I’m afraid that it would be difficult to escape him for miles around with Junshan, so it’s even more important to have someone to guard here at this time. So why don’t you go back first and see if you can help me move a savior.”

    He can see that Fuyao does not want to stay here to deal with these many troublesome things, in that case, that can never be forced. Fu shao this person is very dry, whisking his sleeve away, actually really their first go. Xie Ren turned to Nanfeng, but also to open his mouth again to ask carefully about that teenager, the crowd is again a commotion, someone said: “Caught! Caught!”

    Now Xie Ren didn’t have time to ask, saying, “Caught what?”

    The woods and out of two bloody figures, one is a big man, just the first to rush into the woods with him a, actually was not the array of corpses in the forest of blood rain scared back, really call it bold. Another, is his hand dragged a teenager, was dead in his hands, head and face wrapped in a mess of bandages.

    Xie Ren also remembered that Dr. Tea had said in the small store, “It is said that the ghost groom is an ugly monster with a bandage on his face, because he is too ugly, no woman likes him, so he can’t see anyone else become a good thing”. At that time, they thought it was likely to be a rumor, but unexpectedly there was really such a person.

    But whether there is one or not, whether it is that ghost groom or not, is another matter. He just wanted to take a closer look at the bandaged boy, but Xiao Ying rushed over and said, “You guys got it wrong! This isn’t the Ghost Groom, he’s not!”

    Little Peng head said: “have been caught on the spot, you still say no? I ……” a card, he seems to steeply suddenly realized what, said: “Oh, I said why you are always kooky, an all-out ‘not’! ‘not’, the original you and this ghost groom is collusion?!”

    Xiao Ying was shocked and waved his hands, “No no no, I didn’t, and he didn’t either. He really did not do anything, he is an ordinary …… ordinary ……”

    Little Penguin Head was aggressive: “Ordinary what? Ordinary ugly bastard?” He haphazardly pulled two handfuls on that bandaged teenager’s head and said, “Then why don’t we take a look at what this ordinary ghost groom really looks like before he loves to rob other people’s women so much!”

    His two grabbed a few bandages, that wrapped the face of the teenager held his head and screamed, screaming full of fear, very harsh, but also very pitiful. Xie Ren grabbed Xiao Peng head arm and said, “Enough.”

    Xiao Ying heard the screams of the teenager, tears rolling down, see Xie Ren out to stop, as if seeing hope, hastily grabbed a handful of his sleeve, said, “Gong …… Gong, help me, help him.”

    When Xie Ren glanced at her, Xiao Ying snapped and let go of his sleeve, as if she was afraid that he would dislike her for moving her hands and not want to help her. Xie Ren said, “It’s fine.” Taking another look at the bandaged teenager with a head full of blood, he found that the teenager had a pair of bloodshot eyes open, leaking out from the gap of the bandage under his arm, also peeking at him, only peeking for a moment, and then immediately dropping down, busying himself with re-wrapping the bandage back on. Although he did not reveal his face, but revealed a little bit of skin on his face, just this little bit, is already extremely horrible, as if burned by fire, it is not difficult at all to imagine, under the bandage, what a terrible face, drew the bystanders back to the cold air, and he also shrunk even more.

    Xie Ren noticed that the two men were cowering in the same way, as if they were afraid to see light or people for years, and sighed in his heart. On the side, Xiao Pengtou was alert: “What do you want to do? Ghost groom but we caught.”

    Xie Ren let go of him and said, ”I’m afraid it won’t be that simple for you to catch him. Just now, my friend searched around the neighborhood and didn’t find him. This teenager could only have come later. The real ghost groom should still be here.”

    Xiao Ying also gathered courage and said, “You want to offer a reward …… but you can’t arrest people indiscriminately to make up the number ……”

    Little Peng head heard, want to do it again. From the party since he has been adding to the chaos, Xie Ren finally couldn’t stand it anymore, waved his hand, if the evil damask swiftly out, “snap” sound draw small Peng head is a heel, and the south wind also seems to be at the limit, and immediately make up for a foot, finally fell to the ground. This person is a specialized in picking fights, he did not move, the crowd did not know who to follow the charge, have become very honest, sparsely shouted a few times, but also do not get up. Xie Ren said, “Finally, I can do something.” He sized up the teenager on the ground for a moment and asked, “Was it you who used a rock to stone someone by the window just now?”

    His voice was gentle, the bandaged teenager shook like a chaff sieve, and peeked at him again, nodded. Little firefly said, “He is not trying to harm people, he just looks at little Peng head seems to want to beat me, want to help me ……”

    Xie Ren asked the teenager again, “That forest of corpses hanging in the woods, do you know what’s going on?”

    Firefly said, “What’s going on I don’t know, but it sure as hell wasn’t him hanging ……”

    That bandaged teenager shivered and shook his head repeatedly as well. Nan Feng stared at him from the sidelines and suddenly said, “Who is the Green Ghost Chi Rong to you?”

    Hearing this name, Xie Ren was slightly stunned. The bandaged teenager was obviously at a loss, had no reaction to the name he said, and didn’t dare to return Nanfeng’s words. Xiao Ying said, “He …… is just scared and doesn’t dare to speak ……”

    She has been trying her best to protect this eccentric teenager back, Xie Ren said in a warm voice: “Little Ying girl, this child this in the end what’s going on, what do you know, all say it first.”

    Seeing Xie Ren, it was as if Xiao Ying had summoned up a bit of courage. The firelight shone brightly on her face, and she didn’t hide anymore, wringing her hands and saying, “He really didn’t do anything bad. This child, just live in the mountain with Jun, sometimes hungry and anxious, ran down the mountain to steal some food, once happened to steal to my home …… I see that he is not very good at talking, his face is still injured, so he found some cloth wrapped, and sometimes also send some food to him …… “

    Xie Ren originally thought that they might be a pair, but now it seems that Xiao Ying’s return to this teenager is more like a sister, or even like an elder who takes care of him. She added: “Then there were so many people who thought he was a ghost groom, and I couldn t say anything about it, and I only hoped that I could quickly catch the real scourge …… I thought that since Gongzi you guys are so capable, and you want to pretend to be a bride to catch the ghost groom, then at least you won t catch the wrong person, because he definitely definitely won t go to hijack the flower sedan chair. Who knows as soon as I went out, I heard that Xiao Peng head they also want to search the mountain today, I really worried but, so I secretly followed up to see.”

    She shielded to the teenager, as if she was afraid that people would hit him again, and defended, “He really is not a ghost groom, look at him, only a few people have been beaten like this, where can he beat so many military officials escorting the bride s sedan chair …….”

    Xie Ren and Nan Feng exchanged glances, both feeling a headache.

    If it was as she said, then wouldn’t this teenager have absolutely nothing to do with the matter?

    The bandaged boy, the “ferocious” ghost groom, the “near-perfect” green ghost, and that not small, the heavenly magistrates talk about the Lord of the Silver Butterfly, a small and Junshan, but also a constant stream of strange guests, really teach people to cope with it. Who is who? What is the relationship between who and who? Xie Ren felt that his head had grown several times larger.

    He rubbed his brow, not thinking for the moment about how much truth there was in Xiao Ying’s words, and suddenly thought of something he had been wanting to ask and said, “Miss Xiao Ying, have you always lived near with Jun Mountain?”

    Nging said, “Yes. I’ve always lived here. I can guarantee he hasn’t done anything bad here.”

    Xie Ren said, “No, I wanted to ask you another question. With the area of Junshan Mountain, other than the one on this mountain, have there never been any other Bright Light Temples built?”

    Xiao Ying was stunned, “This ……” she thought for a moment and said, “It should have been built.”

    Hearing her say this, Xie Ren suddenly felt vaguely that he had caught something important.

    He said, “Then why is it that at the bottom of the mountain you only see the Nanyang Temple but not the Hall of Bright Light?”

    Xiao Ying scratched his head and said, “Built is built, but I heard that it seems to be because, every time you want to build Ming Guang Hall, the construction on the way will always catch fire for no reason. Some people said that they were afraid that General Mingguang had some reason to not be able to suppress this place, so they replaced General Nanyang …….”

    Nan Feng noticed Xie Ren’s stony expression and said, “What’s wrong with you?”

    Xie Ren suddenly realized that it was too easy.

    The bride who can’t smile, the shrine that caught fire for no reason, the Temple of Bright Light locked deep in the mountains by a maze, the imposing statue of General Pei’s martial arts god, the ghostly groom who disappeared into thin air after being injured by Ruo Xieya–

    It’s too easy!

    It was just that there had been something else disturbing the vision, so that he hadn’t perceived such a simple fact at the outset!

    He violently grabbed Nan Feng and said, “Lend me some mana!”

    Nanfeng gave him a startled grip, and hastily struck a palm in the air with him, saying, “What’s wrong?”

    Xie Ren tugged him and ran, saying, “We’ll explain later, first find a way to subdue the bodies of those eighteen brides!”

    Nan Feng said, “Are you confused? There are only seventeen brides’ corpses, plus you are only the eighteenth!”

    Xie Ren said, “No, no, no, before it was only seventeen, but now there are eighteen. Inside the eighteen bride corpses, one of them is a fake – the ghost groom is mixed in there!”
