There is nowhere to be seen here, and there is only a small road outside leading to the distant road. All traces in the yard were covered by the snow yesterday, including the pit where the bell was buried, which was also half buried by the snow.

The tripod was still there, the pulley was hanging above, the chain was hanging down, shaking slightly. I frowned, thinking about what happened the day before yesterday, I really couldn't believe that these were all done by the dead...

The master found a branch and carefully scraped off the snow on the clock. Only then did I see the whole picture clearly. It was already rusted, but it was not incomplete, but it was quite complete.

I squatted down, and put my hand into the bell with my master, and touched the sticky thing again. It didn't solidify in such a cold day.

The master put it on his nose and smelled it, frowned slightly, and I didn't dare to ask.

"Leng'er, let's clear out the snow from that pit." After a moment, the master said.

The master took out two small shovels from the big bag he carried with him and handed me one. The two jumped into the snow pit and dug it up.

The snow was very hard due to the cold and cold. Although the master's shovel was sharp, it was still a bit difficult to dig. Every time we dug a shovel, we threw the snow out. As we dug deeper and deeper, occasionally looking up, we could only see the gloomy sky above, as if we wanted to press it down. In this way, we finally dug the ice layer and the shovel could not be dug.

"Master, why is there ice under the ground?"

In this narrow and formidable environment, even the breathing sounded very heavy, and I felt my voice was like a muffled thunder.

"If I had a good feed, it should be connected to the river in the south. Because the weather is too cold, the water solidifies into ice." said the master.

I felt enlightened, but I didn't understand how to connect to the river. There was a big hole in the middle of the ice layer, which was where the bell was before, blocked by snow. Some people might ask, since there is so much snow in the pit, wouldn't the snow in the yard be very thick? The yard was dilapidated and airtight, and the snow fell on the ground and when it was blown by the wind, it would rush to the low-lying place.

As my master and I took out the snow in the ice hole, a black stone pillar appeared, and the four sides seemed to be nailed there. I pushed it with my hands, without moving at all. There was something vaguely engraved around the stone pillar. The master touched it with his hands and suddenly said, "Oh no!"

Then, while calculating something, the master looked up at the sky from time to time. Although I was extremely curious, I didn't dare to ask, and I didn't even dare to speak out.

After a moment, the master stood up and scared me.

The master looked at the watch and said, "Leng'er, which hospital is Boss Wang's son in the city?"

I scratched my head and thought about it, and told the master.

"Where is his wife's family?"

"This...I don't know..."

"Forget it, I'll go find it myself." As he said that, the master walked up.

"What's wrong with Master?" I asked hurriedly.

"Fortunately, they came in time. Their fate is coming to an end. Boss Wang's wife and son cannot survive tonight. They must bring them to this yard before midnight." The master said, "I don't have time to explain to you now. Leng'er, you wait for me here. If I don't come back in the afternoon, if you go out to buy food, bring my bag with you. It contains magical tools. If you use it in the evening, you can throw it in this yard without any mistakes..."

After the master walked for a while, I woke up from the chaos. I learned from my master and touched the stone pillar in the ice hole. I vaguely identified the stone pillar as if it was carved with words like the day stem, but the font was very strange. I only recognized the word "Geng", but I couldn't tell the others. I thought to myself that my ability is still far inferior to that of my master.

The sky became more and more cloudy, and the cold wind kept pouring into the yard one after another. I couldn't stand it, so I had to go to the warehouse I stayed at the night before to avoid the cold. There was a lot of wood scattered in the corner of the warehouse. I lit the fire and it took me a while to warm my frozen feet.

As soon as the master went there, I hadn't returned in the afternoon. At around three o'clock, I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it anymore and decided to buy food. After coming out of the warehouse, I suddenly remembered my master's instructions and turned around and took out the big bag.

The sky was filled with layers of lead clouds, and the cold wind blew, making the trees beside the road shaking. I felt the cracks in my bones, and I wrapped my cotton jacket hard, and walked towards the nearby town.

When I arrived in the town, I wandered around and found a small restaurant, ordered fried cakes and a hot soup. After a gulp, the wind blew over and the cold and hunger disappeared.

It wasn't five o'clock and it was still early when I was ion. I lit a cigarette and chatted with the owner of the restaurant while smoking. As I chatted, I finally got to the old house.

The boss said that the house had been abandoned for many years. When he was a child, he often went there with his friends. Those houses were stormy and rain all year round, and some of them were almost collapsed. A few years ago, a child was smashed into an idiot by a falling brick, and no one went there again.

"What do you ask about that house?" the boss asked.

"Ah?" I was stunned, "Nothing, I passed by there just now, just ask."

"Oh, I thought you wanted to buy it. It is said that the house was bought by a brick kiln owner..."

I smiled and said, "Do you think I am such a rich person? Okay, it's getting late, I'm leaving..."

I was about to get up after paying the bill, and the door of the restaurant suddenly opened and the cold wind filled in. A young man hurriedly closed the door. Suddenly, when he heard a "bang", the statue of Guanyin on a sacred urn fell down in the store against the wall.

The boss was startled and rushed over and picked up the Guanyin statue. After checking, he found that it was not broken. He carefully wiped it with a cloth and kept chanting Amitabha Buddha.

The cold wind caused the temperature in the restaurant to drop sharply, and the light bulbs on it swayed for a long time before stopping.

"Xiaodong." The boss shouted to the guy, "I won't do business tonight. Get the washed vegetables over and we'll close the door and stew the hot pot later."

"Okay."

When I heard about stewing hot pot, the guy agreed very happily.

The boss turned around and saw me standing blankly, saying, "The weather this year is very strange. It snowed so early. It took two events in just a few days. It was unlucky to fall the Guanyin statue just now and it will not be open tonight. Alas, business is difficult to do..."

I also felt that the gust of wind just now came strangely. Guanyin seemed to be a house-controlling thing, and it was really unlucky to fall off. I thought to myself, was it because we accidentally bumped into something when we were talking just now?…

Sure enough, I felt something was wrong as soon as I came out of the restaurant. I have experienced many things that ordinary people can't imagine, and I have dealt with unclean things once or twice. The feeling at that time told me that I was targeted by something.

It was dark very quickly in winter, and it was only after five o'clock when the night opened. If it weren't for the snow all over the mountains, I would have no fingers, and the biting cold wind roared strangely.

I pretended to be nothing, and while humming a small song, I quietly reached into my bag, touched a token for exorcising evil spirits, and secretly held it in my hand.

As soon as I left the town, the feeling became even stronger. I glanced around from the corner of my eyes and saw nothing.

I hid the token in my sleeve, and with a 'Ouch', I pretended to have tripped and twisted my feet. When I lowered my head to rub my feet, my eyes looked back through the gap between my legs, but all I saw was the snow on the road.

When I got up and walked forward, everything became wrong. I suddenly felt unfamiliar with the road in front of me. When I walked forward, the scenery on both sides of the road also changed. First, a broken brick wall appeared on my right hand for some reason, and then a thick old tree appeared on my left hand.

Just as I walked like this, I suddenly found myself standing in a wilderness, looking around, and not seeing a building.

Master once taught me that if I get lost by ghosts in the wild, I bit my fingers and point my finger blood on the seal hall. The vision created by the ghosts in front of me will disappear immediately.

I tried it and it didn't work at all. I couldn't help but feel panic, and cold sweat oozed out of my nose. The thing I "followed" all the way has never appeared. The invisible "thing" would make people even more frightening.

When I was panic, I felt something falling to the ground "slam". It was the bag that had been dropped open. All kinds of magic weapons and various instruments that were used to set up in the Qimen rolled all over the ground.

I had an idea and suddenly realized that there was a way to get lost in the Qimen technique that my master taught me, but I had never used it before, and I don’t know if it worked.

It doesn’t make it complicated. Just find out where the “life gate” of the immediate dilemma is located and you can go out.

For example, I am trapped in the middle of a large nine-cluster grid. There are eight grids in front, back and left and right of me, and the eight gates are listed in them. They are Xiumen, Shengmen, Shuenmen, Dumen, Jingmen, Jingmen, and Openmen. There is only one way out, that is, Shengmen. Only by finding out which grid it is in, I can go out. If I go around, and accidentally enter the Death Gate or the Injury Gate, I will ruin myself...

I looked at the date and time on my phone. On December 3, 2004, the 22nd day of the lunar calendar, at 7:15 pm, the solar term is the year of the snow.

If you use Qimen to start the game, you should press Yindu Eighth Bureau. I set up a game on the ground and saw Shengmen falling in Li Jiu Palace, which is my south. However, the world in front of me was confused and I couldn't tell where the south was...

That doesn't matter. As long as you can find any thing that can represent the nine stars or the eight gods in geographical direction, through the star or the god's fallen palace, I can know the direction.

I looked around and suddenly found a winding path twenty or thirty meters away from me. With the mentality of betting on, I slowly walked towards that road and finally came to that road safely.

The road that is often trampled on is very strong, and the magnetic field is stronger than other places. I used a compass to measure it, and then inserted it on the road with a few strokes. I felt ecstatic inside. This is a real road, not an illusion.
