The weather was gloomy. After entering the boundary of Hezhou, it started to rain continuously over the foothills.

On the muddy mountain road, the old donkey carried the bookshelf, happily sticking out his tongue to catch the falling rain, trampling out the mud, falling on the scholar's robe and shoes next to him.

Lu Liangsheng lowered his eyes and glanced at it, and knocked off the old donkey with a rolled bamboo slip in his hand.

"Don't be impatient."

After coming out of Naweishan Town, most of them were walking slowly for half a day, taking care of Lu Pan and others behind him, and by the way, they looked through these three volumes of "The Record of the Protecting Spirits of the Ten Thousand Rivers" to analyze how many similarities are there with the magic arrays in "The Endless Mountains and Seas". After all, no matter how many immortal skills there are in the world, there are always people who think of one place, and it is not surprising that they create something similar.

Among these three volumes, among the first volume Lu Liangsheng has read, there are at least two similar to the magic circles of "The Sea of ​​Mountains and Seas", and they have not finished reading them. If you finish reading all the first volumes and count the middle volumes, you may be more.

Then these three books have big problems.

A drop of water fell on the tip of his nose. The scholar raised his face and looked at the mountains filled with water vapor. Lu Pan and the eight people behind him were separated by more than ten steps, and then he slowed down and fell to the side of the bookshelf behind the old donkey.

"Master, by the time, this place should have entered the boundary of Hezhou. Do you still remember where that Luohe Town is?"

In the shaking bookshelf compartment, Taoist Toad chose a small robe with flower sleeves. When he heard the words coming in, he put them aside, hugged the rope around his waist, leaned against the shaking wall, and glanced at the foothills outside the gap through the small door.

"How can I know the specifics of the teacher? Who would remember a place name when I was angry? They flew directly over and landed in the town from the sky. But I think it's not far away. Anyway, it's just in the Hezhou area. Maybe you can find it if you walk around..."

"Master is so sure?"

"How can you talk nonsense when you are a teacher? Thinking about the fact that when you were a teacher flying to the sky and hiding the earth, you can get three mountains and five mountains with one foot..." The Toad Taoist paused and said: "...Well, it's better to find someone to ask for the right path."

Ask for directions?

Lu Liangsheng turned around, and in the voice of his master talking, the distance he looked into, blue smoke vaguely rose from the mountainside.

The dense branches dripped with rain, winding along the muddy mountain road. There were a small thatched cottage on the mountainside, and smoke from cooking was rising on the roof. There were children standing on the steep slope on the mountainside and shouting at the words of father going home for dinner.

The man who responded to the child packed up his hoe and took the kettle to walk up the ridge of the field. He heard a jingle of copper bells.

The farmer with a straw hat turned around and at the end of the muddy Loess Mountain Road, he turned over an old donkey and walked slowly. A scholar in a blue shirt and white robe shook the reins in his hand. There was also a Taoist priest who looked like a good person running around on both sides of the mud road. He looked around. Behind the donkey, he followed eight big men with their chests open and exposed their dense black hair.

This group of people didn't look like good people no matter how they looked. The farmer quickly carried the hoe and turned around and walked towards home. Lu Liangsheng, who was coming from a distance, was seeing the farmer carrying the hoe up the ridge of the field and walking to the slope.

"Brother, can you find out about the road?"

Hearing the words, the man carrying a hoe was over thirty years old, and saw the scholar in the group of people under the field bowing and bowing.

The farmer glanced at the eight vicious men behind him, squeezed out a smile, and put down the hoe.

"What's the matter with this young master?"

Although there are people in the mountains who are unruly and fierce, there are also honest men. Seeing that he is nervous, Lu Liangsheng probably guessed something and smiled and politely spoke to him to ease the atmosphere.

"The person in Fushui County, Xiaqixia Mountain, called the fellow villager, just wanted to ask for directions."

It turns out to be asking for directions...

The farmer felt relieved. Seeing the scholar speaking gently and politely, he also let go of his guard and walked over: "I don't know where the young master is going?"

"My brother should be living here for generations. I wonder if you have heard of a place called Luohe Town?"

The farmer was stunned and nodded.

"I know where, but why did the young master go where?"

Lu Liangsheng knew that it was slaughtered by his master and that the entire town was gone, which must be horrifying, and it was reasonable for the other party to show this expression.

"I just heard about some past and wanted to go and see it."

At this time, a child was shaking his two small braids on the steep slope and jumped out and stood above and shouted again.

"Dad, go home for dinner soon, mom is about to get angry."

"Just come!"

The farmer turned around and shouted, watching the little girl go back, then turned around, took off the straw hat from her head, squatted onto the high ridge of the field, approached the scholar below, and lowered his voice.

"Young Master, you can't go there. I told my ancestors that all the people in the town died overnight, with blood all over the ground and even bodies could not be found."

"Can Luohe Town still remain now?"

"There are no people, but the house is still there, but most of them have collapsed and covered with weeds. When I was a child, I was curious, so I went there once with my partner in the same village. I went there during the day. There was a gust of wind, and I always felt that my eyes were looking at you everywhere. It was so scary!"

Seeing that the scholar's face was not afraid, the farmer stood up and pointed ahead.

"Since the young master is going, I can't persuade him, so I walked along this road and went north to the bend and climbed over the hill in front of me. I saw a road, and then went forward and saw a half-piece of stone stele buried in the soil. That was the arrival."

Lu Liangsheng thanked this farmer, followed the direction guided by the other party, walked the mud road, climbed up the mountain, and looked up high. In the dense forest, you could see several small paths at the foot of the mountain. At the foot of the mountain, beside the intersection, the Taoist walking in front found half a stone tablet buried in the soil obliquely, leaving only Luo and half a river character outside, with moss and sand climbing on it.

‘It’s probably ahead.’

Following the road where the stone tablet is located, you can see the outline of a town from afar.

The sun is pouring down.

Lu Liangsheng and the Taoist, Lu Pan and the eight others walked into the place. The houses were tilted, and the broken walls were scattered on the ground. Broken bricks and tiles were scattered. The open space where the bricks were broken were mixed with weeds and insects were heard.

"Liangsheng. What are we here to do? Catch ghosts or monsters?"

Lu Pan was also tired of walking, so he put down his shoulders and sat down with a pair of broken bricks and tiles. The other seven nodded, and looked around, and there was a ruin.

"Are there anyone here?"

"It's probably a big deal. There's nothing here. Even if there are living people, they probably have moved away long ago."

Lu Liangsheng led the old donkey and walked past the eight people there silently, staring at the collapse of the surrounding houses. The beams and wood that had already brushed their sleeves were crooked on half of the wall. The broken window lattices were filled with spider webs and stroking them in the wind. A scattered wall made strange noises from time to time, making people panic.

The Taoist beside him pinched his fingers and patrolled around. When Lu Liangsheng walked to the front, he came to this empty place in the town and stopped.

"Master, is it here?"

The old donkey following behind also stopped and opened the small door on the bookshelf on one side.

"Wait for the teacher to come down first..."

Taoist Toad slid along the rope to the ground, unzipped the rope, carried the webbing on his back and walked to the disciple to stand aside, raised his toad face, looked around, and then slowly closed his eyelids, as if he had pieced together the original appearance of the town back then.

"It's here, there is a street under your feet, very prosperous, and there..."

The round webbed head pointed in one direction, and the courtyard wall covered with vines collapsed and collapsed. "There is that man's house there, and the gate was still broken by the teacher."

Lu Liangsheng also looked at the ruins that his master pointed at and pursed his lips tightly.

"Master is back, what are your feelings?"

"What's the embarrassment? After many years, the resentment of the early years has disappeared." Taoist Toad took the hanging frog webbing, probably not wanting to look at it anymore, and turned his eyes to other directions.

Lu Liangsheng looked at the decaying walls reflecting the sunshine, and the wild grass was everywhere. He suddenly raised his hand to bow to the surroundings, uncovered the robe, walked to the bookshelf, and changed into close-fitting clothes.

"Scholar Lu University, what are you doing?" Taoist turned around from other places.

The scholar put on his clothes and smiled at him, walked to the nearest ruins, and picked up a stone.
