"Let's rest here tonight!" Su Xiao pointed casually, facing a dilapidated temple. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The temple has no door, the layout is medium, the front is a long staircase, overgrown with weeds, and a corner of the temple has collapsed, which seems to have been abandoned for a long time. The reason why you can see that it is a temple is because you can clearly see the Buddha statue inside when you stand directly in front of the gate.

The place of the head has been shaved off, there is no table shore for worship, and cobwebs and messy hay can be seen everywhere.

"It looks like this place has been occupied. Luo Xiaobei glanced at Su Xiao next to him, with a shallow smile on his face, but there was deep meaning in his eyes.

Generally, there will be no good things when encountering temples, and Luo Xiaobei has always believed in this theory.

When the incense in the temple is at its peak, with the temple as the center, all the evil cults around it are suppressed, so they can't come out to move, and they don't even dare to approach. The incense gradually decreased, the popularity of the temple was no longer popular, and the evil spirits came out of the mountain again, and this was the time for them to take revenge.

Even so, the gradually darkening sky has left them with no choice. The temperature gradually dropped, and the temperature in the mountains dropped even faster, and they could not risk freezing and catching a cold to sleep in the wild as they did at the beginning, although the temple did not necessarily have much protection from the wind.

It was supposed to be a place with strong aura, but the closer you got to the temple lobby, the more obvious the sense of oppression brought by the heavy cold air inside became.

The head of the Buddha statue is gone, and only the sitting body and the hand holding the Buddha's seal are left, and the Buddha's body is covered with cobwebs and dust, and it looks messy.

Luo Xiaobei's eyes swept around the lobby, and the lobby was also a mess, with scattered weeds and thin dust on the ground.

"Let's just take a break here!" Su Xiao quickly put away the weeds, and went outside to find some dry firewood and ignited the fire.

The orange flames with a shallow temperature kept attracting people to get closer, and they also dispelled the cold around them. Leaning against the corner of the wall at the other end, where the top of your head has not collapsed, even if it suddenly rains at night, you will not get wet.

After casually eating some simple food with him, Su Xiao had already prepared the firewood needed for the night.

"You will rest for a while, and the boss and I will take turns keeping vigil. Su Xiao pointed to the corner of the wall, motioned for Luo Xiaobei and Wang Xiaowan to lean inside, and he sat down on the edge of the fire.

This location is the closest to the gate, and if there is any movement, he and Lu Zhe can also react immediately.

There should also be an inner court behind the temple lobby and a courtyard inside.

The temple in the wilderness is not suitable for wandering around at will, Luo Xiaobei listened to the shallow breathing sound belonging to Wang Xiaowan in his ears, and also closed his eyes.

The firewood crackled as it burned, the night was thick outside, the wind in the mountains was getting stronger, and a slight whimper could be heard in the quiet lobby.

Luo Xiaobei and Wang Xiaowan leaned against the corner of the wall, with Su Xiao and Lu Zhe on both sides, and the position of the four of them presented a triangle, with the fire in the middle.

All four of them had their eyes closed, and the occasional shallow breathing could be heard in the quiet lobby.

"Boom-"

A dull sound could be heard through the wind.

Lu Zhe Su Xiao opened his eyes, his gaze fell on the door without a door, and a dull voice sounded again, "Knock-"

The voice was dull, but penetrating, and seemed to be deliberately heard, and could be heard again every twenty seconds or so.

Judging by the size of the sound, the thing that made the sound was coming in the direction of the temple, but it was slow and not urgent.

The firewood was burning vigorously, and the orange fireworks softened Luo Xiaobei's face in the corner.

She and Wang Xiaowan were leaning together, but at this moment, both of them had already opened their eyes, with a vigilant look in their eyes.

Everyone is experienced in this wilderness life, and even if they sleep, they don't dare to sleep too hard. The slightest movement could wake them up, not to mention the dull sound that seemed to disturb people's dreams?

Su Xiao's position was closest to the door, he listened for a while, and then smiled again, showing his white teeth, his good-looking peach blossom eyes squinted, and he turned his head sideways and whispered to a few people, "I think I probably guessed who it is!"

Wang Xiaowan glanced at him, his eyes that had just opened were a little soft light of fireworks, and he moved his gaze to the thick night outside the door, looked at it for a while, and closed his eyes again.

I thought that Wang Xiaowan could speak, but Su Xiao, who had been waiting, tilted his head back and closed his eyes for a while.

Lu Zhe glanced at Luo Xiaobei, saw that her face was tired, and at this time her head was leaning on Wang Xiaowan's shoulder, she had already slept again, she glanced outside the door again, listened to the sound of getting closer and closer, and closed her eyes for a while.

The sound of gradually approaching did not affect the four people in the lobby, until a cold wind poured in from the door, and the dull sound suddenly stopped, and Su Xiao opened his eyes.

glanced at the visitor with a smile, and the slightly closed peach blossom eyes flashed with a sparkling light.

Hats and robes lay across the gate, with no faces to be seen, holding an old-fashioned gong in one hand and a drumstick in the other. The lower body is a blue and black linen trousers, the corners of the pants are rolled up, and the ragged straw sandals have the smell of wind and frost. Under the half-hidden robe, an old-fashioned bronze bell hung from the side, and the wind blew, but the bell shook but was silent.

The temple was originally a semi-collapsed pattern, Luo Xiaobei and his party had already occupied more than half of the corner, and people who came to rest must also occupy another corner.

And, not enough.

"Jingle bell—"

The bell rang, Luo Xiaobei opened his eyes, and saw that the bronze bell in the hand of the visitor kept shaking.

The man kept walking in, and at the same time he was followed by a string of people, all dressed in hats, but the people behind him were not walking, but jumping.

The cold breath of the forest came to his face, the cold wind outside became more and more intense, the sound of the wind changed from whimpering to whistling, and the originally vigorous flame shook violently, close to extinguishing, and returned to its original state after a while.

The corpses stood in a row, and they were right in the doorway.

The bell stopped, and the man scrutinized the corpse in front of him, as if counting the number of people. After doing this, he lowered the hat, the bell shook again, and the crisp sound sounded again. He casually headed to the corner of the lobby, where there was a door to the inner room and backyard.

As soon as he left, the corpses behind him seemed to hear his command, and one by one, they jumped in.

Several people watched the whole process silently, exchanged glances with each other, and closed their eyes again as if nothing had happened.

"Excuse me, can you make room?" the rugged male voice was as deep as the sound of a gong striking in his hand.

Luo Xiaobei followed and looked over, and his eyebrows pressed slightly.
