While he was speaking, the Lang's surname had already seen the changes in the shadows outside the cave. Then he saw these figures slowly walking towards the toad's mouth. They almost blocked all directions of going out. Now in this situation, no one dared to go out easily. Fortunately, these figures walked very slowly and would not rush to the toad's mouth within a moment or three moments.

At this time, Commander Lang had no intention of making things difficult for me. After a look at the panicked soldiers, he pointed to the bonfire at the entrance of the cave and said, "Light up this pile of firewood first. Don't they say that gods and ghosts are afraid of fire? I just see if they dare to come in! Pretend to be a ghost... After a while, when my machine gun is fired, when they cry, put the machine gun to the door, and these shadows dare to come in and rob. Don't you like to be a ghost? Then I will make you real ghosts..."

Although the Lang surname is still stubborn, anyone can hear him tremolo when he talks at the end...

After hearing the words of his regiment commander, under the aide-in-charge, a soldier took out the kerosene lamp he carried with him, and splashed all the kerosene on the pile of firewood. Then he took out the foreign fire and lit the fire. When he saw the flames rise, the hearts of everyone in the cave stabilized slightly.

After seeing the fire ignited, Captain Lang breathed a sigh of relief. Then he turned to look at me and said, "I want to see who is pretending to be a ghost. After I catch him, I will tie him to the fire and roast..."

In such an occasion, I could only put Old Dao Lu aside and said in cooperation with the Lang's surname: "I have long seen that the person named Lu is not a good thing. As long as you can catch him, I will take my first bite after it is cooked - what is it muddy? There is something in the fire..."

Before I could finish my words, a strong smell of burnt was already spreading in the cave. Then a yellow smoke drifted out of the bonfire. As I shouted, the Lang also reacted. He came over and kicked the fire over, and as the firewood scattered all over the ground, a body hidden inside finally revealed.

Like the dead body I saw on the mountain road just now, the body hidden in the fire was still a foreigner with a big nose. His body was naked, and his ears and nose were cut off. His upper and lower eyelids were also tied together with rusty iron wire. The more I looked, the more I looked like the blind man I had seen back then...

After seeing the tragic corpse, everyone at the scene was stunned. No one expected that such a strange corpse would be hidden in the bonfire. They originally expected that the fire could block the figures that were getting closer and closer outside, but now it seems that compared with this corpse, the figures outside seem to be less terrifying.

Just when everyone was surprised, the adjutant guarding the entrance of the cave suddenly shouted: "Captain! The shadows outside are getting closer and closer. Do you have an idea? Should you go into the toad's stomach now to avoid it, or let's rush out before the shadows gather. But when you go in, we have no way out. Once those ghosts rushed in, we hide without any trouble. Otherwise, let's just forget this time, bring the monk who will do the trick next time, and the old Taoist will come back. The hero will not suffer any loss in front of you."

Today, this incident is full of evil nature. The Lang surnamed wanted to escape first, but he was reluctant to let go of the treasure in the toad's mouth. He hesitated for a moment and said to me: "Boy, I will give you a chance to survive today. Didn't you tell me that you have driven away the shadows outside once? How did you drive them away last time? Now you drive them away again. As long as the shadows outside disperse, I will save your life and give you another five hundred oceans. If you can't drive away these shadows, I will shoot you and then go down the mountain. At worst, I will bring all the monks next time, and the old Taoist will come back..."

After hearing the words of Captain Lang, Chen Liancheng hurried over to plead for me: "Boss, please don't be embarrassed by this child when you see my face. Let's go down the mountain to avoid it first. In a few days, I will take Li Laokuai, the master of the Qian Village, with me. Li Laokuai is not an ordinary person. He said that he would talk about brothers with the Jade Emperor. He knows that he has learned from five thousand years and ten thousand years. If he doesn't do it, you will shoot me one by one..."

"Uncle, you old man, get up. Let me try it. No matter how I have learned skills from Old Dao Lu for several years, it will be too late to leave if I fail." Seeing Chen Liancheng almost kneeling down to the Lang's surname, I felt so uncomfortable. I unbuttoned my clothes and continued, "I was so stupid by my master back then. I had nightmares every night in those years. I just rely on this little thing to hold on..."

When I was talking, I had already taken off my shirt, revealing the dazzling array of fragments inside. At that time, the little gong, who had dispelled the figures of Old Dao Lu, was tied to his chest as a heart-protecting mirror, and the red rope with copper coins was tied to his trousers as a belt. The remaining peach wood swords, yellow paper with talismans, and so on were tied to various parts of his body.

After being slandered by Lao Dao Lu, thinking of everything he had experienced, my heart kept shaking the toad's mouth. After the old thing disappeared with the money during the New Year, I flipped through the property in Erlang Temple. Although I didn't find much money, I finally found these treasures. It can be regarded as the Guan family I inherited from Lao Dao Lu.

Since then, I have tied all these magical instruments to my body, even if I sleep. I don’t know if it’s a mental function. Since I brought these magical instruments with me close to my body, I have never dreamed of a toad mouth again when I sleep at night, and I have not even had nightmares for many years.

I took off the little gong as a heart protection mirror, walked to the entrance of the cave, and looked at the figures getting closer and closer outside. After taking a deep breath to stabilize my mind, I began to recall the rhythm of the old Taoist Lu hitting the gong. I didn't have the ability to hit the gong with his fingers, so I borrowed a soldier's tobacco pot as a drumstick and started to hit the gong one by one.

Although after so many years, I still think about what happened yesterday. The rhythm of the old Taoist Lu hitting the gong slowly recalled. With the sound of the gong, the figures in the distance immediately responded. They stopped at the same time, and after a moment of pause, they began to turn circles in place.

Seeing these figures reacting, Commander Lang and others breathed a sigh of relief. The attitude towards me began to become more harmonious. The adjutant smiled and came to me, and then looked at the figure who could not move forward outside, and said, "When I saw you, I thought you had some skills. After all, I was a foreign student from Peking, and it was no problem to subdue demons and catch ghosts. Otherwise, don't go back to Peking, just follow our leader. The next New Year, Commander Lang is Commander Lang, and I will also give you a leader. Do you know that it is said that when the gun bolt is fired, it will be worth ten thousand taels of gold..."

After being interrupted by the adjutant, the rhythm that could not have been remembered by the porcelain was suddenly chaotic. Unexpectedly, the rhythm of the gong was chaotic, and the figures actually had new movements. They shivered violently, and then turned around in a row to face the direction of the toad's mouth. The originally dull movement suddenly became flexible, as if they were running towards the cave like a monkey.

Everyone had just breathed a sigh of relief, but then suddenly it reached my throat. The Lang thought I was playing tricks, so he immediately put the pistol on my forehead and gritted his teeth and said, "Boy, you still dare to play tricks, I will kill you with one shot!"

"Sir, wait a moment! If you can't drive away these dead ghosts, I'll kill you for suicide..." A feeling of oppression on the verge of death made me regain the rhythm of the gong. After a "ding-ding-dang-dang" knock, the figures who had already rushed to the entrance of the cave suddenly stopped. Then they turned around at the same time and walked behind them staggeringly.

As a gust of wind blows in the distance, the fog that is everywhere in the mountains is dispersed. It is also strange. The countless figures of people disappeared without a trace with the fog. After watching the figure disappear, my clothes were soaked in cold sweat, and I sat directly on the ground...
