Chapter 9: Paper horse pointing the way 　　"Didn't find the stone man." 　　"If we can't find the stone man, we won't be able to find that Taoist temple." 　　Meng Fan's clothes are soaked, also some rags, it can be seen, he walked all the way is very difficult, and, although it is hot summer, but after the night falls, the temperature in the mountain is getting cold, wet clothes stick in the body has been some cold, it is very difficult. 　　And let Meng Fan difficult is, along the falling star ditch walked all the way, pressure did not see what stone man! 　　He was now standing on a boulder in the Ri, using a flashlight to illuminate his surroundings, raising his eyes to look around, but his field of vision was limited, and he couldn't see much farther, countless flying insects were flying around under the light. 　　"Keep going!" 　　Meng Fan gritted his teeth, took out a piece of steamed bread from his parcel, nibbled on it, and continued to slowly march. 　　The black cloud was drifting over at an extremely fast speed, it looked like it would descend in less than ten minutes, and its height had become very low, and wherever it passed, a thin layer of white frost eerily rose on the ground. 　　"This Mengjiazhuang big and small mountains, when I was a kid, I've almost been around all of them, but I've never been to this Falling Star Gully." 　　Meng Fan muttered, his face was a little embarrassed, the reason why he had never been here, because this Falling Star Gully is a valley, extremely treacherous, three sides are cliffs, there is only one entrance, and on the contrary, Zhang's mansion is blocked at the entrance, and even the adults rarely go in. 　　In the eyes of the children, the Zhang granny is more scary than the goblins and ghosts, the children do not sleep, the adults at home will say, if you do not sleep, you will be thrown to the Zhang granny to eat. 　　Every child has a nightmare in their childhood, and in Mengjiazhuang, the Zhang woman has become the nightmare of all children. 　　Even now, Meng Fan still has palpitations in his heart when he sees her, let alone when he was a child and dared to walk past her house and enter the Falling Star Gully. 　　After traveling for about five or six minutes, Meng Fan still hadn't encountered any stone people, instead, he felt more and more cold, no different from winter, even if it was cold at night in the mountains, it wasn't as cold as this. 　　In view of last night encountered a similar situation, Meng Fan instinctively jumped up, at this moment he has walked to the valley terrain higher position, and then go forward, but divided into two deep valley, a left and a right, dark and bottomless, do not know how to choose. 　　Seeing a boulder in the middle of the fork, Meng Fan climbed up, holding a flashlight along the mountain, high down a light, his face suddenly changed! 　　The flashlight's light was focused, and it happened to be shining on a black cloud, which was drifting towards him, bringing up a chilly mist, and it looked like it would soon catch up with him. 　　"Shit!" 　　Meng Fan's face changed drastically, he hurriedly jumped off the boulder, intending to randomly choose a path to escape as soon as possible, he even wanted to run back to Granny Zhang's house, with Granny Zhang's ability, there should be no problem to save his life, even if she didn't want to save it anymore, she had to look at the face of that two hundred dollars ah. 　　In a light trance, Meng Fan jumped off the boulder but made a sudden discovery! 　　"A stone man?" 　　The boulder was oval in shape, and the amazing thing was that it had all five senses on it, and the solemn look of a god was a huge head! 　　Only, for some unknown reason, it had broken off and fallen from the body. 　　"Where's the body?" 　　With this discovery, Meng Fan was pleasantly surprised, and using his flashlight to shine nearby, he easily found the body of the stone man, lying on the ground, but falling to pieces, and his arms were broken into several pieces, miserable. 　　The barren grass swayed in the wind, and Meng Fan was dumbfounded. 　　"Bad, how can I point the way when I've fallen like this!" 　　But that black cloud was getting closer and closer, Meng Fan's mouth twitched and he was about to shed a tear …… 　　If I had known this, I would have let Granny Zhang draw a map. 　　Now you can only pick a random path, left or right? 　　If you choose the wrong one, you'll be finished and die young! 　　Which way to run? 　　"Hoo-" 　　A gust of cloudy wind blew, but that black cloud didn't give Meng Fan time to think, it had already arrived! 　　"Sizzle!" 　　In a disturbing sound, the black cloud coalesced into a humanoid ghostly figure, floating without its feet on the ground, reaching out and pointing toward Meng Fan. 　　"Come …… come ……" 　　This time, the ghostly shadow acted sharply, presumably also afraid of any further mistakes. 　　Meng Fan only felt a strong force coming at him, as if he was being strangled, his body hanging in the air, involuntarily moving closer to the ghostly shadow. 　　Cold sweat finely covered his forehead, his lips trembled, making slurred noises, his eyes full of despair, his hands grasping around helplessly, grasping in vain. 　　Confronting this supernatural existence, only supernatural means could deal with it, right? 　　Where would Meng Fan be? 　　He thought that this arduous journey would enable him to learn the skills of Granny Zhang and complete the path of self-help, but he didn't realize that it was still a lost cause. 　　It is getting closer and closer to the ghostly shadow, but the vision is getting more and more blurred, only to see that the ghostly shadow has a twisted face, which is filled with coldness and greed ……. 　　Although scared, but the fear is not so strong. 　　After all, it is going to die. 　　This desolate valley, overgrown with weeds and rubble, has become a burial place. 　　Poor parents, still not waiting for his service, old age. 　　And Liu Xiaoxi, I do not know how many songs in the Walkman, listened to, still like it? 　　There is no chance to cure her crippled leg. 　　There is also the female paper figure of the pillar, and it is too late to burn it. 　　Want to do, too much. 　　To die just like this, very unhappy na! 　　"Boom!" 　　In despair, suddenly the external force disappeared, Meng Fan's body fell heavily to the ground, swallowed a mouthful of dirt and grass clippings, raised his eyes to see, the ghost shadow was still there, but there was an additional white clattering thing, four hooves galloping, courageous and invincible as if it was fighting with the ghost shadow. 　　A paper horse? 　　Came at the right time! 　　Looking at the paper horse brave, incomparable magic, a touch of smile mixed with bitterness, surfaced in Meng Fan's face, he bah two mouth, spit out the mouth of dirt, grabbed a flashlight climbed up …… 　　Needless to say, he understood in his heart, the paper horse is Granny Zhang's, I can't imagine that people still have after-sales service! 　　"Granny Zhang …… is so mean!" 　　Meng Fan rushed to the paper horse broke a sentence, the mood is much better, but not as good, glanced at the fight between the paper horse and the ghost shadow, see fell a confetti, the heart hangs again, after all, it is a paper tie, even if it is enriched with a powerful spell, or fall down the wind ah. 　　But fortunately there is a killer, the paper horse brow of the point of red, is emitting a blinding light, did not hesitate to cast out. 　　Between the eyes also rose up the fire, should be the magic spell of the child's urine is also going to cast. 　　Uh-huh? 　　This child's urine, where did you get it? 　　Is it from the creek? 　　At the time of life and death, Meng Fan also wondered if he had time to ponder this question. 　　"Boom!" 　　Flames appeared, the left eye flames flew out and blasted at the ghostly shadow, the right eye flames unexpectedly did not attack the ghostly shadow, but flew towards the deep valley on the left side, the flames were bright and unrelenting. 　　Even a fool understood that this was the paper horse pointing the way. 　　"Thank you thank you!" 　　Meng Fan hurriedly ran towards the left side, praying that the paper horse could hold on for a little while longer, and if he was lucky enough to survive, he would definitely pay back Granny Zhang for the paper horse. 　　People can't be too stingy sometimes. 　　When the water is clear, there is no fish, and when people are too stingy, they have bad luck. 　　I don't know how far I ran away again, but I also broke my leg …… 　　Finally, there is no way out of the mountain and water, and there is a village in the dark – 　　In the light of the flashlight, a dilapidated Taoist temple stood in front of the eyes ……
