In a small forest;
A pit suddenly appeared in the lush forest.
There was something lying in the pit, human-shaped, blood-red, with burnt strips of cloth hanging all over its body.
There was no one visible in the mountain forest, except for the head of the bloody humanoid, which was emitting a faint green light.
As the blue light flashed on and off, the bloody man's chapped skin like a spider web slowly healed.
The blood scab condensed on it slowly disappeared.
The bloody man who had been motionless unexpectedly resumed breathing slowly.
Not long after, the bloody man had transformed into a normal human form.
Suddenly, the man got up and walked toward the forest with a somewhat stiff pace.
Ten miles outside the mountains and forests, Qingfeng Town;
On this day, a young beggar suddenly came to Qingfeng Town;
The beggar had a dull expression, and his eyes were somewhat hollow and confused. The beggar did not beg for food like other beggars. He just sat blankly, staring at the sky with dull eyes.
The young beggar goes to sit on the side of the bustling street every day, and at night he goes back to sleep in a mountain temple not far outside the town.
Qingfeng Town is not a big place, and over time, people got used to the existence of this beggar.
People discovered that after a long time, the beggar became more active.
He was acting weird and noisy all day long, but he did nothing to cheat, kidnap or steal.
Strangely enough, this beggar seemed to be a child of luck. Every day when he sat there, someone would always give him money and things.
This person was Fang Yuan who came out of the mountains and forests and came to Qingfeng Town.
That day he left the mountains and forest, walked aimlessly, and unknowingly arrived at Qingfeng Town.
Once a person has no direction in life, he will be confused, and Fang Yuan is the same.
He didn't know where he came from or where he was going. He only remembered that his name was Fang Yuan and couldn't remember anything else.
Later, a green light suddenly appeared in his mind, and then some words appeared;
After some sorting, I found out that these words were from an immortal technique called "Dragon Secret Technique".
Out of boredom, he also learned two of the techniques, "traction technique" and "miao shadow without a trace".
Traction is a secret control technique that can control some items from a distance.
Miaoyingwuwu is a kind of invisibility technique that can hide your body shape and become a transparent and invisible person.
Without anyone to guide him, Fang Yuan only learned a little bit.
After a while of fumbling;
There is also a slight success in the two techniques, but of course they are only scratches the surface.
The traction technique can barely control some light-weight objects, but Miaoyingwuxiang has no choice but to use it.
He's not impatient or impatient. Anyway, it's just something to pass the time out of boredom.
On this day,
He came to the market as usual, sitting in the same place and in the same posture.
At this moment, he was looking listlessly at the bustling crowd on the street;
"jingle......"
Suddenly several copper plates fell to the ground.
A young man with a hand-held paper fan, dressed in fine clothes, said with a glowing face,
"Stinky beggar, I'm in a good mood today. I'll reward you with ten copper coins. Use it to buy food."
Fang Yuan glanced at the young master calmly, and then continued to look at the street.
Alas, it seems that he is really regarded as a beggar.
This doesn't seem right. It's hard to say that I am a beggar!
Thinking this, Fang Yuan happily picked up the copper plate on the ground.
He has long been used to this kind of inexplicable reward and has become numb to it, because it happens every day.
After finishing the day's "routine work", Fang Yuan walked back to the mountain temple.
I played around with "Traction" and "Miraculous Shadow".
When it was time to sleep, he climbed up to the altar and lay down in the small nest behind the statue.
When Fang Yuan was drowsy;
Two figures came into the mountain temple;
After the two figures came in, they looked around and confirmed that no one was there, then started talking.
Among them, the man in black wearing a ferocious face mask spoke first:
"This wooden box is delivered to Yashan Ghost Market. The escort fee is one thousand taels of silver. I pay half of the deposit in advance. Are you willing to take this escort?"
After a moment of silence, another person said firmly:
"I'll take this escort!"
A hoarse voice sounded:
"Hehe, as I said before, one thousand taels of silver is not that easy to earn. If you cheat, you will have to pay with your life."
The scene was silent again for a while, and then the escort's voice sounded:
"I understand the rules of escorting. Either you lose money or your life! Since you offer such a high escort price, it must be valuable, so it is normal to lose your life."
The man in black nodded with satisfaction and handed the wooden box and banknotes to the escort chief, along with a small paper ball:
"This is the password for the joint, remember it!"
The escort brought the paper ball close to his eyes, moved his lips slightly, and stuffed the paper ball into his mouth.
The man in black glanced around, his eyes lingered on a certain spot for a few breaths, then turned around and walked out of the mountain temple, disappearing into the night.
Seeing the man in black leaving, the people from the escort agency also turned and walked out.
When there was no movement around him, Fang Yuan poked his head out from behind the statue;
"It turns out that the escort agency is doing business! It's so mysterious and it disturbs my sweet dreams."
"Hey, I'm not sleepy at all, so let's go out for a walk."
Fang Yuan patted the dust on his body and walked towards the outside of the mountain temple.
Whenever he couldn't sleep, Fang Yuan always liked to go to the slope not far from the mountain temple and stare at the moon in a daze.
With his feet hanging on the edge of the slope, looking at the bright lights of Qingfeng Town not far away, Fang Yuan said dullly,
"Alas, the moon tonight is covered by dark clouds. It's boring."
"call......"
A gust of dark wind swept by, and Fang Yuan couldn't help but shudder.
He couldn't help but hugged his shoulders with his hands, full of complaints.
"Why do you suddenly feel cold in these dog days of summer?"
Looking behind him, Fang Yuan shook his head and continued to look at the lights of the town.
"Who am I? Why can't I remember? Why am I here?"
Sensing movement behind him, Fang Yuan turned around and shouted loudly,
"Who? Get out!"
There is nothing behind him, only rows of shadows of trees swaying in the wind
Fang Yuan felt a little scared and couldn't help but stand up and walk towards the mountain temple;
Thinking that the mountain god is protecting you in the mountain temple, you don't have to be afraid of any monsters or ghosts.
Fang Yuan didn't notice that a fluttering cloak appeared in the woods behind him.
The black cloak followed Fang Yuan silently;
The cloak was empty except for a billowing cloud of black smoke;
Two balls of blood-colored light flickered in the black smoke, and the cloak moved faster and faster towards Fang Yuan's head.
Just in time;
An owl jumped from the tree, taking off exactly in the path of the cloak.
"Gugu~~"
The owl was wrapped in the black smoke in the cloak and only had time to let out half a scream.
screams are heard;
Fang Yuan turned around suddenly, and what he saw was a ferocious mask with a grimace;
There was nothing behind the mask, except for the two eye holes that emitted a frightening red light.
Seeing this horrific scene;
Fang Yuan's legs were trembling and he staggered back, sweat breaking out from his back.
"Snapped......"
A mass of bloody flesh suddenly fell from the cloak to the ground.
Looking at that ball of meat paste dripping with blood;
Fang Yuan was so frightened that he lost his mind, his legs felt weak, and he sat down on the ground, feeling terrified in his heart.
"This ghost face mask was worn by the man in black just now. He is actually a monster?"
There was a cold and erratic sound coming from all around;
"Jie Jie Jie, I blame you for seeing something you shouldn't have seen."
"Hey, I actually have the aura of Long Yuan on my body. That's great. It seems like I'm lucky. Jie Jie Jie..."
As he spoke, the cloak quickly rushed towards Fang Yuan.
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Fang Yuan used the traction technique to grab a dead tree and throw it at the cloak;
"boom......"
The dead wood suddenly exploded when it was close to the black cloak and turned into powder.
Fang Yuan's face turned pale, and there was only one thought left in his heart:
"It's over, dead."
