Since Yu Shu strongly requested, the village director categorically had no reason to refuse, so he led Yu Shu straight to the end of the village.

Walking on the road, the village director briefly introduced the situation of the old yellow head to Yu Shu: "The old yellow head ...... Originally, it was not from our village, but it was only left here when he was young. He is a widower, his daughter-in-law died in an accident, and he has no children and no daughters for the rest of his life, so he is the only one left, living in a dilapidated house at the end of the village, and there is no land. ”

"Hmm. ”

Yu Shu nodded and motioned for the village chief to continue.

"But the old yellow head, this person, has a bit of a problem with his brain, all day long, sometimes sober and sometimes confused, when he is sober, he is like a normal person, when he is confused, he likes to walk around the land temple, and he still mutters crazy words that others can't understand. By the way, the dilapidated house where he lived was very close to the Land Temple, a few steps away. ”

While the two were talking, the village chief suddenly raised his hand and said, "It's here, this is it." ”

When I looked up in the direction of the village chief's finger, I saw a courtyard that looked as dilapidated as a dilapidated house.

The courtyard wall is made of mud, which is completely a relic of the last century, which is really rare in the current era, and has collapsed.

The iron door was already covered with rust, and the spring couplets that had been whitened and broken were pasted on the door.

The yard was very clean, and a small vegetable patch was reclaimed in the corner of the courtyard, but because it was winter, nothing was planted, but a dozen cabbages were piled up.

There were originally three houses in the courtyard, but one had collapsed, and the other two seemed to be about to be overwhelmed.

Although it is a brick house, the anti-wall tiles have cracked, giving people the feeling that they are crumbling and will collapse at any time.

To put it simply, it doesn't feel like a place for people to live at all.

"Old yellow head! old yellow head?"

The village chief called out to the two of them, and then pushed open the rusty courtyard door, making a "squeak" sound of sore teeth.

An old man with gray hair came out of the hall in response.

The old man looked to be seventy or eighty years old, with a slightly rickety figure, wearing a shabby tunic, his skin was dark, his face was already full of wrinkles, and his eyes looked a little cloudy, but he still walked with a vigorous and resolute momentum.

"What are you doing, what are you yelling in broad daylight?"

The old yellow head looked at the village director impatiently, with a red gold dragon between his fingers, took out the lighter and lit it, took a deep puff, and then asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's not that I have something to do, it's that the police comrades are looking for you to understand the situation. ”

The village chief turned sideways, let the rest of the story behind him into the courtyard, and then said: "Didn't you say last time that you saw something black fire in the Land Temple, hurry up, tell the police comrades again." ”

"I didn't say that. ”

The old yellow head glanced at Yu Shu, then waved at the village director, and was about to go back to the house: "What black or, I don't know." ”

"Oops. ”

The village director suddenly became anxious, hurriedly grabbed the old yellow head, and said angrily: "What's the matter with you old man, when I don't ask you, I talk everywhere, and now I ask you, and you say you don't know?"

"I just don't know, what's the matter?"

The old yellow head glared, but the village director was startled.

Seeing this, Yu Shu hurriedly walked over and said with a gentle smile: "Uncle, that's the case, didn't someone in our village call the police and say that there was something strange on the side of the Land Temple, so I'll investigate, if you know anything, just tell me, okay?"

"What kind of land temple, it's not a land ......"

The old yellow head muttered something, his voice was so small that he could barely hear it clearly, but it was keenly captured by Yu Shu, and his heart couldn't help but move slightly.

Not a land temple?

What is that?

Could it be that there is something strange about the temple itself?

Yu Shu was puzzled in his heart, and was about to ask again, but who knew that the old yellow man waved his hand directly and walked back to the house: "I don't know anything, you can go." ”

“……”

Seeing that the old yellow head turned around and entered the house directly, the village director couldn't help but look embarrassed, and said, "Look, I just said that it was a waste of time to find him, this old man has a very strange temper." ”

"Hmm. ”

Yu Shu smiled, but thoughtfully, and then said, "Then let's go to the Land Temple to have a look." ”

"Okay, okay. ”

The village chief nodded again and again, and left the old yellow man's house with Yu Shu.

The land temple is indeed not far from the old yellow head's home, just walked out of the courtyard gate, walked a few meters to the east, and then turned a corner, you can see the dilapidated land temple from a distance.

The two walked slowly to the temple, and Yu Shu walked around the broken temple twice, as if looking for something, and then walked directly into the temple.

And the village chief grinned, as if he thought the temple was too dirty, and did not go in.

The area of the ruined temple is not large, and it looks very dark, even in the daytime, after entering the temple, it is pitch black, only the broken tiles above the head, will let in some light.

There were no statues of gods in the ruined temple, or rather, nothing left, the beams and walls were covered with cobwebs, and the air was filled with a choking smell of dust.

Yu Shu felt it carefully, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Neither outside nor inside, he found not the slightest trace of ghostly energy, nor did he have any traces of the Infernal Flame burning.

Even if you look carefully inch by inch with your spiritual sense, the result is the same.

What about the ghost cry and the black flame that the villagers were talking about?

Is it just a rumor?

Yu Shu was a little unwilling, and his spiritual sense slowly spread out, and he continued to search and sense carefully in the temple.

But after a moment, Yu Shu shook his head helplessly.

Still didn't find anything.

At this moment, the village chief seemed to be impatiently waiting, and stood outside the temple and shouted inside: "Comrade policeman, are you okay? ”

"Alright, alright. ”

Yu Shu answered, glanced at the empty temple again, and then walked out with his feet raised.

By this time it was already dark, and the setting sun was hanging in the sky.

Rural people generally eat early, although it is just over five o'clock, but the smell of food is already wafting from the streets of the village.

The village director held a cigarette in his hand, smiled and said enthusiastically to Yu Shu: "Comrade policeman, you see it's not too early this day, why don't you go home with me and have some food together?"

"Nope. ”

Yu Shu waved his hand and refused: "I still have something to do, I have to rush back to the city, I'm really bothering you today, Director Liu." ”

"No hassle, no hassle. ”

The village director smiled happily and said, "You were originally here to do things for us, what's so troublesome." ”

"Okay, then I won't bother. ”

Yu Shu smiled, stretched out his hand to shake the village director, and said, "I'll go back first, if there is any situation, you can call me at any time." ”

"Hey, yes, yes. ”

The village director nodded again and again, said goodbye to Yu Shu, and walked slowly towards home with a cigarette.
