At dusk, a dirt road went up diagonally, and the trees on both sides swayed in the wind, like ghosts with teeth and claws.

A team moved forward on this dirt road, leaving deep ruts, which showed the weight of the things on the vehicle.

Most of the people accompanying him were wearing black attire and carrying weapons. At first glance, they looked like escorts.

Zhong Yuhai happened to be the leader of this escort, walking at the front.

After so many years as an escort, he still looked stable and was highly valued by his brothers, but before he knew it, he was tired of this profession.

But he couldn't put down the stall for a while. Looking at the donkey beside him who was immersed in pulling the cart, he actually had the illusion that he was also a donkey.

There seemed to be an invisible whip in life, lashing him and forcing him to move forward.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, he couldn't help but urge: "Everyone, work harder. We can have a good rest when we reach the town ahead."

Although numb, he still did not dare to let down his guard.

The setting sun has completely disappeared into the mountain forest, so the wild trees swaying in the wind all around look even more ferocious.

Zhong Yuhai looked in all directions and led the team forward.

As he walked, he suddenly heard someone whispering, as if someone was discussing something.

Escort walking is a very hard job, and the escort team does not exclude people from chatting and laughing to relieve their fatigue.

But when he heard this voice, Zhong Yuhai couldn't help but feel something strange in his heart. Because he couldn't hear clearly what they were talking about, he always felt that there was some evil intention.

Yes, with bad intentions.

Thinking of this word, Zhong Yuhai felt a little uncomfortable, so he turned around and said, "Stop talking and hurry up!"

The team suddenly became quiet, and the rustling sound disappeared.

But not long after, that voice appeared again.

Zhong Yuhai felt upset, turned around again, and said seriously: "I told you to be quiet, why don't people listen?"

This time he went out because he was short of manpower, so he brought some new people with him. He couldn't help but think that these new people were really getting worse every year, and they didn't even understand the rules.

He was thinking that he had to find an opportunity to train these newcomers.

Because of his seriousness, the team was quieter than before this time.

But as I walked, the rustling sound appeared again.

Zhong Yuhai waved his hand to stop the team and said with a gloomy look: "Who is talking!"

The team suddenly became extremely quiet, leaving only the roar of the wind.

He vaguely judged that the sound came from the rear of the team, walked over and ordered: "Yu Biao, count the number of people at the rear!"

"yes."

If there are a large number of escorts, they are usually divided into groups. The so-called "tail" refers to the queue responsible for the escort.

His veteran subordinate Yu Puma quickly counted the number of people in the team, but as he continued to count, he actually slowed down.

Zhong Yuhai raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong?"

Yu Biao looked strange and said: "There is one more."

The most taboo thing about dart walking is that someone falls behind without knowing it, and someone is missing. The sudden appearance of an extra person is quite rare, and even slightly scary.

Zhong Yuhai couldn't help but feel a chill on the back of his neck, and ordered: "Ren the lanterns! Count them clearly for me!"

The dim yellow lamp quickly lit up. Yu Biao held the lamp in his hand and counted it again. His face turned pale and he said: "Boss, there is one more, there are fourteen."

The "tail" is thirteen people, which he decided when he set out.

Zhong Yugao took out his saber and said, "Identify them one by one!"

There are new people here, and some are just familiar faces. It’s really hard to recognize who is who in this dim environment.

The wild forest next to the road was dark, as if there were many malicious eyes hidden there.

Yu Biao began to recognize people, and at the same time, Zhong Yuhai found that the rustling sound appeared again.

He glanced sharply at those people, trying to find the source of the sound.

As he listened, he suddenly discovered that the voice was... beside him?

Next to him, his subordinate Yu Biao still held a lamp and asked people to come forward one by one to identify him, but found nothing unusual.

As a result, Zhong Yuhai suddenly trembled all over.

Under the dim light, I saw several holes on Yu Biao's clothes.

In those openings, there are mouths of different sizes.

Human mouth.

They were turning gently and making a low sound.

This time, Zhong Yuhai finally heard what they were saying.

"You discovered it."

A soft voice floated into Zhong Yuhai's ears, bringing a chill to his heart.

After that, a burst of screams broke through the quiet night.

The night is getting deeper...

...

Three days finally arrived.

Jing Yue, who looked like a saint girl was crawling all over his body, once again entered the saint girl Ye Ning's body with ease.

After a moment of spinning, what came into view was a tattered body with a big belly and several bloody mouths on the chest.

I saw densely packed granules growing in those mouths, and the next moment, those granules suddenly started to squirm.

Jing Yue was startled and stepped back sharply.

Only a bang was heard, and a woman in black clothes was knocked out and hit the ground heavily.

"Can you calm down?" Miss Ye Ning's voice sounded coldly.

Jing Yue looked around and confirmed that the man who had just been knocked away by him was the saint girl's man. He couldn't help but said awkwardly in the saint girl's mouth: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you okay?"

The woman in black quickly stood up and replied respectfully: "It's all due to the slave's negligence. It's because the slave is too close to you, the Holy Lady."

As she spoke, she couldn't help shaking her aching shoulders and chest gently.

The saintly lady is indeed extremely talented, and her breasts were almost knocked out.

At this time, Jing Yue once again focused his attention on the strange body and asked in surprise: "What the hell is this?"

It's not surprising that Jing Yue was timid. This man had so many mouths on his body, and the mouths were full of bloody granules. It was really scary and terrifying.

"Scrooge."

"Don't worry, it's dead." Ye Ning explained.

Jing Yue looked at the holes in the other person's throat and chest that were clearly poked by spears, confirmed the matter, and asked doubtfully: "Scrooge?"

He knew misers, and he also knew some of the more famous ones, such as Grandet and others, but he had never thought that a miser could look like this.

"This is the Silver Slave under the God of Wealth. According to legend, the God of Wealth has the world's wealth, but the more money is scattered, the less there is left, so He also has to think about how to gather wealth.

A miser is born with four eyes and six mouths. He is particularly sensitive to gold and silver treasures and likes to devour all kinds of treasures. This was just a silver miser. He was born to feed on silver. He was probably too hungry. He swallowed nearly ten thousand taels of our silver and killed many of us. "

When she said this, Ye Ning couldn't help but reveal a hint of exhaustion in her tone.

Jing Yue looked around and found that this was near a river beach.

The weather was extremely gloomy. In addition to the one who had just been injured by Ye Ning, two of Ye Ning's men were injured, and their wounds were wrapped with white cloth. It can be seen that the pursuit of this silver miser cost Ye Ning and the others a price.

But Jing Yue was still immersed in this novelty.

He knew that there were demons and evil spirits in this world. When he was in Huangliu Town, he witnessed a strange thing with his own eyes.

A neighbor came back from out of town at that time. The originally kind-hearted person suddenly became violent and beat his wife and daughter in public. They tried to persuade him, but they didn't take it seriously.

As a result, that night, he heard screams and quickly took people to check the situation.

When he was about to knock on the door, he saw an evil object with a high back spine suddenly jump out of the wall, with a human head in its mouth.

The head belonged to the neighbor's wife, and although the face of the evil thing was vague, judging from its clothing, it was the neighbor who had returned during the day.

Later, I heard from people in the same town that this neighbor accidentally discovered a tomb cave while collecting herbs in the mountains and wanted to go in and see if he could touch anything.

His companions were timid and did not dare to go in, but he went in by himself.

It must have become like that because he was contaminated by evil spirits after entering the cave.

After that, Jing Yue never saw that neighbor again.

Although he witnessed this strange thing with his own eyes, it was only a glimpse and he had no chance to observe it at close range. So at this moment, he couldn't help but use the human maple gun to push back the hair of the silver miser's corpse, and found that there was indeed an extra hair on the top of his head. To the eyes.

The eyes were glowing yellow, as if there was a touch of brown sugar in the pupils, which looked quite strange.

"Under the God of Wealth, why are the things under the God of Wealth so evil?"

In his concept, the God of Wealth is a god, so naturally his subordinates are also gods.

But the appearance and actions of the miser in front of him were no different from evil spirits that harmed others.

"Not many people in this world have seen the true form of the God of Wealth. No one can tell clearly whether he is evil or not. I don't like him anyway."

When saying this, Ye Ning couldn't help but reveal strong disgust in her tone.

Jing Yue looked at the swollen belly of the silver slave and wondered: "Then is all the silver he swallowed inside?"

"You'll know if you cut it open and take a look. It's been too long and there should be no chance." Ye Ning complained.

At this time, Jing Yue suddenly noticed that the men in black were looking at him nervously.

One of the subordinates kept gesticulating to another companion from behind, with an obvious meaning - "Is the Holy Lady suffering from hysteria?".

Jing Yue reacted immediately and knew that it was his communication with the saint herself that scared them. He couldn't help but explain: "Don't worry, I'm fine. It's just that it's easy to assume the role when checking things."

After hearing this explanation, several of the men breathed a sigh of relief, but their hearts soon became anxious again.

Everyone knows that the favorite words of a madman are "I'm not crazy.".

I'm really not crazy!

Jing Yue ignored them and thrust the spear into his navel, immediately tearing the miser's belly open.

Immediately afterwards, the silver liquid slipped to the ground, as if the silver water was mixed with fish scales, reflecting a slightly dazzling light.

"The miser feeds on gold and silver treasures. Once the treasure is in his belly, it will turn into water and it will never be able to return to its original appearance." Ye Ning explained.

"Can this silver water be recast into silver?"

"No, the silver water is poisonous and is no longer useful. According to legend, only when he sees the God of Wealth, the silver slave will condense the silver water into silver coins and spit them out."

At this moment, Jing Yue suddenly saw an outline in the silver water in his belly, and wondered: "What is this?"

The next moment, Ye Ning's voice suddenly sounded - "Spread out!".

With a bang, the silver water exploded, and the silver miser's eyes that had lost focus suddenly started to move, and the whole "person" also stood up!

Under the dim light of the sky, its mouth opened wide, looking like a demon.
