Chapter Seventy-Eight: Purification Puja

I didn't dare go home.

I always feel that at night, on the wall of the empty courtyard, there are always countless eyes silently peeking at everything about me.

But if you don't go home and stay outside, will you die faster?

I went back to my house, thinking about the big gap in the back of the house, and I was afraid.

Now this small yard doesn't give me a sense of security at all.

There was a courtyard full of dead people next to it, separated from me by a wall, and there was no stone wall with weak protection behind the house.

I felt like I was in the center of being surrounded by monsters and ghosts, clear and isolated.

I clutched the jade pendant in my hand, plucked up the courage to open the door to the underground chamber, and when I was done, I bit my lip and went down into the unknown darkness where there was no light.

Just as I was about to close the stone slab at the entrance of the secret room, I could clearly see that under the moonlight, outside the dilapidated wooden door of my room, there was a miserable white grimace!

The grimace, with its slender eyes and scarlet lips, was standing quietly outside my room and looking in.

The moment the stone in the chamber closed, I thought I was looking at her, and she suddenly grinned at me, and then a long, blood-stained tongue struck me like lightning.

At that moment, it was as if my heart had stopped.

At the last moment, the stone was closed, and I quickly pressed it firmly against it with my hand, and before long the sound of Suosuo's footsteps could be heard on the ground, and it seemed as if it had deliberately stopped on my stone slab.

My heart was in my throat, and if the female ghost had been silently watching my every move at the doorway from the beginning, she would have seen me reach out and press the secret passage mechanism.

In case, if she pressed the mechanism, the stone slab above the stone chamber would still be opened, and my clothes would have been soaked with cold sweat.

My hands were so sore that I was holding against the slate with all my strength that my body was trembling to the point that I had forgotten about it, and my brain was so heavy now that I wanted to sleep.

But I know better than anyone that in this unknown darkness, if I fall asleep, I may never wake up!

But in the end, the female ghost didn't press the switch, and I don't know if she wanted to spare me, or if she didn't see where the secret switch was hidden.

I didn't dare to leave for half a minute, so I stayed vigilantly at the entrance of the stone chamber all night.

The sweat all over my body dried, and the smell of rancid smell began to emit in the summer, but I was able to save my life, and I cautiously descended from the secret passage to the underground stone chamber step by step.

There is a mechanism inside, and as soon as I hit the ground, the candle on the wall will light up by itself, which is one of the most proud tricks of my life.

The dilapidated room above is not so much my home, but my real home is in this secret room.

I don't know if the female ghost is still waiting outside, but the first priority is to stop the ritual called the 'Purification Puja' that Sister Chun is attending.

I have thought about it, I will rescue my sister first when I get out of the stone room, and then take the old lady with me, and the three of us will leave through the secret passage in this stone room together, and go to another city, another city where there are no strange and evil things happening, and then live well.

As soon as I think of this, my heart will become warm and longing.

After the fear and fear calmed down, I slept a little in order to have good physical strength and spirit, and go to the 'Purification Festival' on the second day to open my eyes!

I went out through another passage in the stone chamber, just in time for the beating of gongs and drums all over the street, and along the way there were several people in white robes holding banners.

Followed by a mighty group of girls, I recognized Sister Ah Chun at a glance.

She, like the other women, was walking slowly past me with a lotus lantern in her hand and her eyes full of devotion in her eyes.

Rao is a mage who guards the front and back, left and right, and I don't dare to act rashly, so I have to pretend to be a passerby and follow silently behind.

Some of the people on the side of the street looked indifferent, and some were solemn and stern.

After the mage walked through the streets, the streets of the Imperial City began to hear the shouts of hawkers, and I was secretly surprised at the time.

Could it be that the mage's gongs and drums really have immortal methods, even if you walk through the streets, you can restore those seemingly silent and terrifying street markets to normal?

But I didn't give up following in the footsteps of going to the Purification Festival.

The festival was held in a large temple on the outskirts of the city, and it is strange to say that I have lived in the Imperial City for almost 20 years, and I have never known when there was such a large temple around the Imperial City.

The girls were invited in, and before entering, I saw them placing their lotus lanterns on a black box that looked like a coffin.

Ah Chun also followed, and I held the jade pendant that saved me from fire and water twice, and turned around and climbed up the tree next to the big temple.

The tree was fine, and the dense foliage would hide me well, but it would not be possible to see what was going on inside the temple.

As soon as I gritted my teeth and my heart was horizontal, I simply climbed the branches and carefully stepped on the red tile roof of the big temple.

Where, I only need to remove a little bit of a gap to see what is happening inside.

The group of white-robed practitioners-like disappeared as soon as they stepped through the temple gate, replaced by another group of monks half dressed in monk's robes and half with their arms exposed.

But I could tell at a glance that they weren't monks, and I probably knew that there wasn't a temple that had monks with scars or tattoos.

The girl was placed to kneel in the center of the main hall, facing a golden statue in the shape of a snake spirit.

There was gradually some commotion in the crowd, and it should be a leading monk who saw that the situation was not good, and stood up and explained, "Don't be afraid, the Bodhisattva enshrined in the center of our main hall is Nuwa Niangniang, the mother of all souls, and all the rituals performed today must be carried out under the witness of Niangniang." ”

I thought to myself that the monk can really blow, I must have never seen Nuwa Niangniang, but what I saw in the book is that Nuwa Niangniang is kind and kind-eyed, although she is half human and half snake, but that kind of maternal tenderness is the only one in the world.

The one in the center of the main hall did not give me the feeling that a baby was in the arms of a mother's body, on the contrary, I just felt that the Buddha statue was ugly.

The leading monk began to knock on the wooden fish and muttered the unintelligible scriptures in front of him, and the girls closed their eyes in a form of reverence.

Let the great monk dip a white porcelain bottle in his hand with wicker water, and throw it at the girls with a wave of his big hand.

After throwing it off, he folded his hands, turned to face the golden-bodied statue of 'Nuwa Niangniang', and bowed reverently, "Lady Vajra of the Great Mighty De Vajra!"

What? Isn't the Buddha statue he just said Nuwa Niangniang?
