Chapter 25 [24] Xinglu Ridge
【24】
Wei WuXian heard the dog barking away, and calmly put his hands behind his hands, walked out from behind Lan WangJi, smiled and "agreed": "Yes, the world is getting worse, and people's hearts are not old. It's worse than our generation back then. too much."
When the man sees the dog, he immediately cowards him, and if the dog is chased away, he is another hero.Lan Wangji straightened his belt that had been pulled crookedly by him, and shook his head.When the doctor saw him, he threw the "Spring Wave Green" into his hand like a hot potato: "Brother, thank you just now! This is a gift of thanks!"
Lan Wangji glanced at the cover of the book and refused to comment, but his ears turned red.Wei Wuxian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Is this a thank you gift? Thank you so much, don't sell this kind of book in the future!... Take your time, don't rush away, I still have something to ask you. You are here to buy and sell. Have you heard of any strange things? Or have you seen any visions?"
The doctor said: "Strange thing? Just ask me. I have been stationed here all the year round. I am known as Bai Xiaosheng Qinghe. What kind of strange thing is it?"
Wei Wuxian said: "Banru, the strange case of dismemberment, the mysterious disappearance."
The doctor said: "There is no place here, but if you go five or six miles forward, there is a mountain called Xingluling. I advise you not to go."
Wei Wuxian asked, "How can you say that?"
The doctor said: "This Xinglu Ridge has another nickname called 'Cannibal Ridge'. How do you say it?"
Wei Wuxian asked, "Where are there monsters that eat people?"
He has heard similar legends at least a thousand times, but these are either artificial or people spread false rumors, which would be boring.The doctor said: "That's right! It is said that in the forest, there is a 'man-eating castle', in which there are monsters that eat people. Any intruders will be eaten by them until there is no bone or scum left, and the body cannot be found. Without exception! Scary, isn't it?"
Wei WuXian said, "It's scary! But since there are no bones left and no corpses to be found, how do you know they were eaten?"
The doctor was dumbfounded for a moment, and said: "Of course someone saw it."
Wei Wuxian: "But didn't you just say that all trespassers will be gnawed to the bone, without exception? Then who spread this rumor, it's so powerful, and they can survive after seeing this scene? "
"..." Lang Zhong said: "That's how the rumors spread, how do I know."
Wei Wuxian: "Then do you know how many people were eaten on Xinglu Ridge? When were they eaten? Age? Male and female? Whose name? Where do they live?"
Doctor: "I don't know."
Wei Wuxian: "Qinghe Baixiaosheng? Huh?"
The doctor carried the basket angrily: "The rumors didn't spread in the first place!"
Wei Wuxian hurriedly stopped him, and then asked Bai Xiaosheng about the Nie family, and the doctor laughed at Nie Huaisang rather contemptuously.
After Wei Wuxian inquired about Xingluling, he still took care of the doctor's business, bought two boxes of rouge, and walked back to Lan Wangji with them in his arms. Walk in the direction pointed by the doctor.
There is a large fir forest on Xinglu Ridge, the forest road is open and the shade is rustling.The two walked for a while without encountering anything unusual.Fortunately, they didn't have any expectations after hearing what the quack doctor said.After all, all ghosts and monsters in this world arise from the human heart.
Ten minutes later, there was a frenzied sound of barking dogs in the distance of the fir forest.
Wei Wuxian's expression changed in horror, and he flashed behind Lan Wangji in an instant, crouched down hugging his waist and curled up into a ball.
Lan Wangji: "...It's still far away, why are you hiding?"
Wei Wuxian said: "First, first, first, first hide first. Where is it? Where is it?!"
Lan Wangji listened intently for a moment, then said, "It's Jin Ling's black-haired dog."

It is said... Later Lan Wangji secretly found Bai Xiaosheng and bought a copy of "Spring Wave Green" [Wait, Lan Zhan, put down Bichen!Don't point at me!Fire will kill you! 】
