At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew in front of the Taoist priest, and the Taoist priest's hand suddenly became light, and the burden that was originally in his hand was suddenly "blown away" by this cold wind.

The Taoist priest suddenly turned around and saw the little sister standing there quietly with her hands on her hips. She didn't have anything in her hands.

Who was it? Who snatched the burden? The Taoist priest looked around blankly. Who's so agile?

"Hahahahaha...... What are you looking for? is this it?" a shrill voice came from above the heads of several people. Everyone looked up and saw a four-eyed monster squatting on the roof of a house, smiling and looking down, the monster shaking the burden he had snatched from the Taoist priest in his hand.

"Here I am!" the monster said with a grin.

"What are you, put that thing down for me!" said the monk with his neck tilted.

Where would the monster listen to him? The little sister immediately followed.

The monk was about to catch up, but saw Wang Fengming suddenly stop him and said, "If she can't go, if you go, it will be useless." ”

"Is this woman so powerful?" the monk asked with some skepticism. He knew very well in his heart that Xiaomei was indeed not an ordinary woman, but he didn't know how powerful this woman was.

Wang Fengming nodded and said, "She said she would help us." ”

"Help us ...... I said "What is the origin of this woman?"

"Is it reliable? To be honest, I don't know, so let's give it a try. Wang Fengming looked at the direction in which the little sister disappeared and said.

"Try it, how can you rest assured?!" the monk said, and chased after him.

The little sister followed the monster all the way to the yard, but lost its sight in front of a row of tiled houses.

The little sister looked up at the row of houses, could it be that the monster ran into the house?

It was a row of very old tiled houses, and the tiles on the roof were scattered loosely. The door also looked dilapidated. The little sister looked through the doorway, and a few beams of moonlight leaked through the cracks in the tiles and shone directly into the house.

The little sister walked to the door of the middle room and stood still, she looked around, but still did not see the monster, so she pushed the door open and walked in gently.

The house is still overgrown with weeds, but it's much better than in the yard. There were a lot of cobwebs all around, and there were some simple tables and chairs in the middle, all of which had rotted away.

There is a painting hanging on the wall behind the table and chair, and there is a deity with a bear skin and a red robe on the painting, this deity is holding a **** shield in his hand, and there are four eyes under his eyebrows!

This is a folk deity to ward off epidemics and evil spirits, named "Fang Xiangshi".

In the past, people generally held exorcism ceremonies in spring, autumn, winter and Chinese New Year's Eve, and the ceremony on Chinese New Year's Eve was the most solemn. The folk call it the Nu sacrifice. Later, this ritual developed, and even crossed the ocean and spread to the Fuso area of Dongying.

The little sister looked intently at this strange-looking deity. His appearance is so similar to those wood monsters that it can be said to be exactly the same.

Xiaomei looked around, this painting should have been hung here a long time ago, there are many holes in the roof, and every time it rains, there should be a lot of rainwater leaking in. The surrounding tables and chairs have begun to rot under the erosion of wind and rain, but this painting has not even melted the ink a bit. In addition to the thick dust and cobwebs, the painting, which can be said to be quite well preserved.

A beam of moonlight fell, just falling on the god's face, and his eyes were actually glowing faintly in the moonlight.

Xiaomei suddenly felt a little surprised.

She saw that the moonlight seemed to have penetrated the eyes of the gods, and those eyes looked very bright, and their eyes were as if they were looking at something alive.

The little sister turned her head and looked in his direction, but there were no rotten tables and chairs except for the walls.

"What are you looking at?" asked the little sister in a muttered voice.

She turned and walked towards the wall.

Suddenly, her expression changed, this wall seemed to be a little strange!

The little sister stretched out her hand and gently pushed it, and the wall turned away with her strength, revealing a secret room behind the wall!

The little sister frowned slightly, raised her feet and walked in.

The inside of the secret room was not as dark as expected, and it was even much brighter than the outside.

It was a brightly lit chamber, not wide, but long, leading far away, and there would be a lantern every four or five meters on the two walls of the chamber.

The legend of the lantern has been circulating since a long time ago, and the most widely circulated folk saying is that every Chinese New Year's Eve, some lonely ghosts who cannot get sacrifices come out to feed, so every household has to light a lantern and put it on the table. If the lights go out, these lonely ghosts will take advantage of the darkness to catch people to eat, so they are called "ever-bright lanterns".

There is also a saying that it is an everlasting lamp in the ancient tomb.

Legend has it that the oil used in this lamp is made from the oil of dead corpses, so it will never be extinguished. This lantern is also known as the "lantern of life", and if one day the owner of the tomb sees the light of day and the lantern is still not extinguished, the soul of the deceased will return.

Xiaomei looked at the ever-bright lanterns burning brightly on the left and right, now it is neither Chinese New Year's Eve, nor is this an ancient tomb, what are these ever-bright lamps used for?

She walked slowly forward, and there was not a single sound of footsteps in the long passageway.

"Click, click, click...... Click, click, click......" However, the footsteps suddenly sounded, and echoed in the long passage.

The little sister simply stopped.

The footsteps of "click, click, click......" still did not stop.

The little sister looked ahead, and the footsteps came from the front. And, as it sounds, it's a bit flustered.

"Click, click, click......" The footsteps became more and more urgent, and the sound became louder and louder, sounding like it was running in the direction of Xiaomei from the inside.

The little sister also walked over to the voice. She deliberately slowed her pace, making some slight footsteps so that the people in front of her could hear her.

Two footsteps rang out inside the chamber, and the sound was getting closer...... Getting closer......

It was already close at hand, but the little sister still didn't see anyone.

Even at night when she couldn't see her fingers, she could see clearly at least a hundred meters away, let alone in such a light-filled environment!
