Jingu is an ancient mine, which is also the origin of the name of Jingu County.

It is located in a sinkhole surrounded by mountains, and the way down is a cliff, so the mine has long been abandoned.

But recently.

Various strange movements are constantly coming from the vicinity of this tiankeng and ancient mine, and some things that are definitely not from this world are also appearing.

At the beginning.

Some people in the mountains saw thick smoke billowing out of the deep darkness at the bottom of the valley. It was definitely not ordinary burning objects or smoke from burning trees, and as far as they knew, there was nothing to burn at the bottom of the valley.

But ordinary people don't come here, most of them are firewood collectors and hunters.

Looking down from a high place, the smoke billows from the dark valley bottom.

This smoke is strange and weird.

People who saw it said one after another: "Even if it is smoke coming out from under the Nine Netherworld."

Ten days passed.

Others saw groups of figures walking around Jingu from a distance. These people were wearing uniform but dirty clothes and were walking in neat lines through the uninhabited forest paths.

And every time it appears, it's late at night.

A brave hunter followed them from a distance, but finally found that those figures disappeared on the edge of the cliff.

There was no way down the cliff, and these people seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

Orion was flustered and said, "Maybe he saw a ghost."

Although this hunter was brave, he did not dare to say anything when he saw such a mysterious thing.

And last month.

Some people even saw these "ghosts" up close, and even made a fuss.

Someone from a nearby village went up to the mountain to collect firewood. They took a nap on the mountain for a while in the afternoon and missed the time.

When I woke up, it was already getting dark, so I hurried down the mountain.

However, halfway through, it became completely dark. In a panic, the woodcutter lost his way in the forest.

That is at this time.

He heard the sound of neat footsteps.

The woodcutter remembered the recent rumors and immediately hid in the forest.

As the footsteps got closer and closer, the woodcutter became flustered.

Finally, the voice came closer.

Although the woodcutter was panicked, he still couldn't help his curiosity and stuck his head out to take a look.

Instantly.

The woodcutter's face turned pale.

On the path going down the mountain, looking through the layers of thick tree trunks, the woodcutter saw figures with their heads bowed, chains on their feet, and evil ghost faces walking staggeringly.

Although they walked very slowly, they were very neat and uniform.

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

Even the sound of the chain chain has a sense of rhythm.

In the eyes of the firewood collector, the terrifying evil ghost walked out from behind the previous tree trunk and disappeared in front of the other tree trunk.

Then another evil ghost walked out of it, walking with the same steps. At first glance, it looked like the same evil ghost appeared again and again between the two tree trunks.

The woodcutter was so frightened that he couldn't control himself and made a sound in his mouth.

"ah?"

This noise was so extraordinary that an evil spirit immediately looked towards the woodcutter, as if he was extremely excited.

"Did you hear that?"

"It sounds like someone's shouting?"

"It's a human being, yes, it's a human voice."

"Man, where is the man?"

"Alive?"

"Where are the living people in this place? There must be a new ghost!"

"New ghost, let him come out and meet us."

These evil spirits were extremely excited. They had not seen a living person or other people for a long time.

But in the eyes of the woodcutter, these evil ghosts had clearly been hungry for a long time, and each one of them showed a fierce look that chose to devour others.

If you find him, you will have to eat him alive.

"Woo!"

It's too late to escape at this point.

The firewood collector could only cover his mouth and nose and hide in the weeds under the tree, not daring to breathe.

His neck was stiff and his body was shaking.

And the amazing thing is that those evil spirits walked in front of him, clearly only a few feet away, but they seemed to be unable to see him.

While the woodcutter was shivering, his nose also faintly smelled a strange fragrance.

Finally, with a thunderous explosion, the evil spirits were so frightened that they immediately formed a team and disappeared into the darkness of the night.

A huge number of evil ghosts walked through the dark night, followed closely behind by a huge vehicle that didn't know what it was.

It was crushed down from the mountain and a road was created directly.

Extremely horrifying.

In the view of the woodcutter.

This is the sedan chariot in which the evil spirits of the underworld are surrounded by the ghosts and gods of the underworld, traveling in the middle of the night.

As the evil spirits disappeared, the woodcutter immediately ran down the mountain.

Don't dare to stop for a moment along the way.

Finally, I fainted from exhaustion, and when I woke up, I found myself under a tree next to another village.

But after waking up, he could not remember the way down the mountain yesterday, nor could he find the place where he saw the evil ghost yesterday.

I just felt dizzy after seeing the evil ghost, as if I was possessed by a demon.

So far.

Occasionally, I can still see this woodcutter at the tea stall on the roadside of Jinshan Avenue, and I can hear him talking about ghosts and gods with the guests who are drinking tea.

The old woman was busy and greeted the guests with a warm smile, without any trace of sadness on her face.

The woodcutter sat at the table, and a crowd of people gathered around him.

"Tell me, tell me."

"What is that?"

"Yeah, why are there so many ghosts walking on the mountain road in the middle of the night?"

Everyone looked at the woodcutter and urged him one after another.

The woodcutter said mysteriously: "What do you know?"

Then he leaned over and lowered his voice and said, "It's Yin soldiers crossing the border."

The firewood collector pretended to be mysterious, but the words "Yin soldiers crossing the border" aroused everyone's curiosity, and everyone urged him to continue talking.

But it was impossible for this man to say anything. He sat next to the tea stall and wiped his sweat, deliberately not looking at the crowd and looking at the other side and said.

"My mouth is dry and my mood is depressed. It's really hard to explain!"

"That's it, we'll talk about it another day, we'll talk about it another day."

Everyone understood what he meant at a glance and greeted him immediately.

"Boss, serve tea, serve tea."

"Big bowl."

"I'll pay the money, I'll pay."

"There's no need for tea. I want to change my taste today and drink plum soup."

Not only that, everyone also collected a few copper coins and put them on the table.

A hand reached out from his sleeve, grabbed a few coins and retracted it. The woodcutter nodded with satisfaction, and then told the story of that night.
