Chapter 420: Beware

We lay in the ridges of the fields, waiting for the five dead ghosts to be lucky, and searched in the direction they appeared. Now we can turn on the flashlight and soon found a winding line of earth in the snow. Following this line, we chased a ravine, and the edge of the ditch was filled with soil. It seemed that the soil in the sedan chair had poured into the ravine.

What are they trying to do? They raise soil from there and fill ditches here. Is anyone going to build a house here? Then this project is too big. Besides, here is already close to the deserted hills and no people. Isn’t it crazy to build a house with me?

Shen Bing and Wang Zijun were tired and sat on the ground, rubbing their feet constantly. To be honest, I was so tired that I couldn't walk anymore in the middle of the night in the muddy snow that I wanted to inform Su Yao to pick us up. But I didn't have a cell phone or a road, so the car couldn't drive in at all. Forget it, I took a break and walked back on foot.

When we returned to the car, it was already four o'clock in the morning. Before we could speak, Lu Fei pointed at the small temple in the north and said, "At around 1 o'clock, the temple kept flashing, attracting many trucks to stop and watch. Later, a few brave drivers discussed going over and take a look, but were driven away by Su Yao, for fear that the Five Ghosts would be coming back soon, so they scared these people again."

Su Yao also frowned and said, "It seems that there is really something wrong with that small temple."

I looked up and thought, at around 1:00, it seemed that Lao Qian was fighting with Wu Gui at that time. The little temple was shining with a flash of light, and it was such a coincidence again? They all asked me what I thought of, and I lowered my head and said, "Don't put high hopes on me like this, okay, I feel very stressed."

Shen Bing chuckled: "It's not that he is under great pressure, he can't think of it at all. Don't make things difficult for our country buns."

"Your local buns are sometimes very cute." Su Yao covered her mouth and smiled.

Uh, I have become a local bun in Shen Bing’s family. Was I taking advantage or being ruined by someone?

Now we go to the small temple to check again, which is obviously inappropriate. We all walked for the middle of the night and spent most of our energy. If there were evil spirits in the temple, we might not be able to deal with it. Besides, this is a temple, and there is no evil spirits. In this case, I explained to them that it was the Land Lord who sneezes and adapted the ghost stories my father had told me and fooled them.

You said that they all looked very smart and would actually believe me nonsense. So no one paid attention to Xiaomiao and drove back to the county town.

We agreed on the way that in the morning, I accompanied Lu Fei back to Shijiazi Temple. First, I came to help his elder brother get buried, and second, I asked Lao Qian what happened to these five ghosts. Although I was sneezing at this small temple, I still told Su Yao to check which village the small temple was built and when it was built, and see if any old people know more stories about this small temple.

Wang Zijun asked me: "You two go to Shijiazi Temple, what about us?"

"When you sleep, don't draw talismans."

“I have drawn a lot…”

"If you really can't rest, go and dig up the grave and see what else is under the grave. I think there is something weird inside." I teased him casually.

Wang Zijun drooped his head: "Then I'd better sleep, dig someone's grave and be flattened into a short eggplant?"

His words immediately made all of us not keep silent, and we didn't even dare to smile. This monkey boy accidentally brought the image of Su Yao's husband, who dared to interfere?

Su Yao seemed to notice who he was like, and he didn't say anything. The atmosphere along the way was quite dull. After entering the house, we talked to Wang Zijun in unison. The monkey cub was shouting that he wanted to take a shower and ran away quickly.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Lu Fei woke me up. He seemed to have not slept all night, his eyes were red. Maybe he was sad again when he thought of the dead elder brother. Their brother was no better than others. Because his parents died earlier, the elder brother acted as parents and raised him from the age of ten. His brothers had a very deep relationship.

We didn't eat anything, so we took a taxi outside to Shijiazi Temple. After two days, the ice and snow on the road had basically melted, and it was broad daylight that the driver dared to run for this business.

Su Yao did not break her promise. She hired a professional guard to help with the funeral. As soon as we entered the door, the coffin was ready, painted, and prepared for the funeral. The neighbors in the village were all gathered at their house at the call of Lao Qian.

Generally, the burial is carried out in the afternoon, but the folk customs are changed to the rules, and the adjacent villages are different. The Shijiazi Temple is buried after lunch. It is still early now. Lu Fei complained to the villagers. The eldest brother died and he didn't go back. He quickly asked him to put on his mourning clothes and go to guard the spirits under the spirit shed. I saw Lao Qian sitting outside the spirit shed, directing everyone to work.

The old guy looked a little pale, and he was obviously injured when he fought with the Five Ghosts last night. So I walked over and sat down when I saw an empty bench. When Lao Qian saw me, he seemed to see through my thoughts and lifted his butt and left. Seeing his busy posture, he was actually pretending, as if he was avoiding me.

I thought to myself that we were peeking behind the big tree last night, and he probably didn't notice it, but the old man was very wary of me, which means that I knew that I had visited the grave and wanted to get the truth from him, so I didn't want to give me a chance to speak. What's the secret between this? The old man didn't let his beloved disciple know, nor did he want any outsiders to know it?

If the old man doesn't give him a chance, I can't follow him back. I can only stand in the yard like a second fool, because I don't know anyone and have nothing to do, so I can only stand stupidly. You say that the second fool doesn't know who took it, just be stupid, and you'll be stupid!

After waiting for a while, Old Qian told someone to cook, but he slipped out of the door. Seeing that the opportunity came, I followed him out and walked behind him and whispered: "Master Qian, your purgatory fire was so handsome last night!"

Old Qian trembled suddenly, turned around and stared at me, and asked in surprise: "How do you know that I was really hot with Purgatory last night?"

Hehe, it's my turn to keep it in the air. Haven't you just hanged my appetite? Now I can't tell you. I waved to him, walked away to the side and whispered to him: "If you sealed the Nine-character Mantra on the Yinmutong Ghost Stump last night and then used the Purgatory True Fire, those five dead ghosts would probably not be able to escape." I still didn't tell him how to know, I'm so anxious!

Lao Qian sighed and said, "The descendants of the ghost story are really amazing. Nothing can escape your magic eyes. Alas, I have used the Nine-Character Mantra many times in this period of time and can't use it anymore, otherwise it will be the same as Lu Fei. But you guessed it wrong, the Nine-Character Mantra sealed Yinmutong Ghost Stump, but it can't be sealed. Last time I only killed one, and I borrowed the other four sedan chairs to escape."

Oh, so that's the case. A dead ghost was missing that time, and it was indeed Lao Qian who killed it.

"Master Qian, can you tell me what the hell is trying to do when you are wandering around?" I asked.
