Chapter 2404 Ghosts, Meet

After Xu Zimo left the torrent, he came to a big mountain.

The mountains are sparsely populated, making them the best place to hide.

However, this mountain is not a place with lush trees, rugged rocks, and shaded trees as imagined.

The entire mountain seemed to have been burned by a huge mountain fire.

The mountain is bare, the tree trunks are also black, and the stones in it are even more weird and bizarre.

We can't imagine how big the wildfire was at that time, but in short, this mountain is a dead mountain.

Xu Zimo jumped into the air with one step. He stood on the top of the mountain and looked down.

From the bottom of the mountain, he saw smoke coming from cooking stoves and occasional farmers living in twos and threes in the mountains.

It is hard to imagine that these farmers can still live in the dead mountains.

Xu Zimo took out the jade plaque in his hand.

This jade token was given to him by the Lord of the Dead and could be used to communicate with the Holy Emperor.

At this moment, Xu Zimo activated the jade card.

There is a very faint power of space revealed from it.

The opponent of the jade card seems to have been waiting for his reply.

At this moment, when Xu Zimo opened the jade card.

The words were instantly drawn with the power of space and transmitted over there.

"Demon Lord?"

"Which Holy Emperor are you?" Xu Zimo also conveyed the news.

The use of this jade tablet is wonderful.

Strong people use the power of space as if they are texting each other tens of thousands of miles apart.

The other party is also vigilant enough.

Didn't answer Xu Zimo's question.

Instead, he said: "Give me your seat and I'll go find you. If you need anything, we'll discuss it in person."

Xu Zimo looked around. He really didn't know where the death mountain was.

Then I saw him coming across the air in one step.

One moment he was on the top of the mountain, and the next moment he was on the mountainside.

When Xu Zimo appeared in front of the farmer's house.

There are only three houses here, and the houses are very old thatched houses and caves.

Halfway up the mountain, there are actually wheat and other grains grown.

This made Xu Zimo very interested.

There was an old man sitting at the door of the farmer's house.

He was lying on the grandpa chair made of wood, swaying slightly, and seemed very comfortable.

"Old man, I want to ask you for directions," Xu Zimo stepped forward and said.

The old man opened his eyes.

Looking at Xu Zimo, he was stunned for a moment.

Then he smiled and said: "Outsiders, I didn't expect outsiders to come to our valley."

"I occasionally travel here and get lost. I don't know where this place is?" Xu Zimo asked.

"This is a rocky mountain," the old man said.

"Under the mountain is an active volcano that revives every once in a while."

"Thousands of miles of molten lava is like a rolling river, so that there is no living thing within a hundred miles."

"In such a dangerous place, an old man would actually settle here?" Xu Zimo smiled and told you the name of Yanshan to the Holy Emperor in the jade tablet.

This rock mountain should be quite famous, and the other party should have heard of it.

He only replied with two words: Xu Zimo.

"wait for me!"

Xu Zimo had nothing to do for the time being, so he started chatting with the old man.

"Although it's dangerous, no one will bother you."

The old man replied with a smile.

"I'm used to living here. It's nice to be quiet. It's just our family here. No matter how dangerous the volcano is, can it be more dangerous than those people outside?"

Xu Zimo nodded slightly at the old man's words.

As the saying goes, any danger in the world is inferior to the human heart.

At this time, the old man said: "For outsiders, since they can come to this time, they are destined."

"When you come, stay one night and we will treat you well."

Xu Zimo nodded and agreed.

After a while, the old man's son and daughter-in-law came back.

His son looked strong and strong. His upper body was wearing a vest and was full of muscles.

The daughter-in-law's hair is so long that it almost covers half of her face.

Seeing the outsiders, both of them were very enthusiastic.

"I caught a rabbit while hunting today," his son laughed.

"It's just a good thing for our guests."

At this moment, the sky was gradually darkening.

In the sky, there are stars.

His son disembowelled the rabbit and set it up on a fire stand to roast it.

After a while, the aroma hit your nostrils.

"The guests can try it first," his son said with a smile as he handed over the roasted rabbit honestly.

Xu Zimo was not polite either.

He hugged the rabbit and started eating.

The family of three next to them looked at Xu Zimo with inexplicable emotions in their eyes.

The three of them looked at Xu Zimo like this, and each of them began to drool.

"Sir, is it delicious?" the old man asked.

"Not bad, do you want to eat?" Xu Zimo asked.

"Eat, eat, of course you have to eat."

Before the old man could speak, the young man next to him suddenly had a glint in his eyes and rushed towards Xu Zimo.

But the next moment, Xu Zimo moved faster.

The bone he had just eaten in his hand suddenly thrust into it.

"puff…"

The sharp bone penetrated directly into the young man's throat.

The young man's eyes widened, as if with extremely strong unwillingness, and he made a harsh sound from his mouth.

"You...when did you find out?"

"What did you find?"

Xu Zimo asked.

"Have you found out that you are not human, or is there something wrong with the rabbit you gave me?"

It was originally a very scary thing, but when it was said in Xu Zimo's mouth, it seemed to be a very calm thing.

A family of three that looks harmonious and friendly, and those wheats growing in uniforms.

It seems that it is easy for people to think of the hidden people.

But Xu Zimo saw it clearly at a glance.

These three people are ghosts.

Ghosts are spirits in the mountains, very strange creatures in the world.

They feed on all kinds of things.

It may be flowers, trees, soil or even stones.

The so-called volcano is just a way to deceive people.

The reason why this mountain became a dead mountain is entirely because everything here was eaten up by them.

They disguise themselves as ordinary people and lure people who come here into food.

During the day, the old man stayed at home while the other man and woman went to seduce others.

And at night, they go out together.

But a few people didn't expect that Xu Zimo, the prey, would take the initiative to come to such a remote place.

………

The young man looked at the bones in his throat, struggled a few times, and finally fell down unwillingly.

The next moment, the human form of the young man disappeared and was replaced by a ghost corpse with black skin and blue eyes and fangs.

Seeing the young man being killed, the old man and woman next to him also screamed and rushed towards Xu Zimo.

Xu Zimo was not polite to the two of them from beginning to end.

He directly picked up the fire rack where rabbits were roasting on the side, pierced their bodies like piercing candied haws, and then threw them into the fire.
