138. See crystal again
It was already completely dark, and Chen Chen quietly walked all the way down the village, and finally came to the temple gate.
There are many stone niches on both sides of the main entrance, in addition to enshrined Buddha statues, there are also a little firelight flashing inside, which plays the role of lighting, and with the dim light, Chen Chen can see the whole layout clearly.
The whole temple is divided into the front hall and the back room, the front hall is naturally dedicated to the gods for people to worship, and the back room is the place to live, judging from the information received by the listening device, the Zhao family father and son are hiding in the back room.
However, at this time, Chen Chen was not in a hurry, he couldn't be sure what the situation was in the temple, whether there was a trap, and it was not a rational act to rush in before he figured out the situation.
Anyway, now that they have become panicked dogs, they basically pose no threat to themselves, and since they have already come here, it is better to let them live one more day and wait for tomorrow's detailed investigation before making a decision.
After making up his mind, Chen Chen turned around and left the temple, found a family that had not been closed, and stepped forward to greet him politely in Mandarin, expressing his willingness to stay overnight.
The villagers here are very simple, and they happily agreed to come down, arrange a room, and bring him tea and snacks, and tell him that it is the right time to travel here, and tomorrow the village will hold an annual sacrifice, and then the shrine maiden will also appear.
Obviously, the villagers regarded Chen Chen as an ordinary tourist.
Chen Chen expressed his gratitude, slept peacefully, listened to the sound of the waves on the beach in the distance, and waited for the next day.
Living by the sea, the morning sun comes earlier than anywhere else, Chen Chen woke up at six o'clock, and at this moment the golden morning sun has appeared on the sea level, projecting the light into the room through the paper window, which is extremely pleasant.
Chen Chen turned over and got up, and walked out of the door after washing, and saw that the villagers had begun to sacrifice, and everyone was standing on both sides of the road looking forward to it, and playing some musical instruments that had never been seen before.
Seeing Chen Chen go out, the master immediately smiled and put on a string of conch for him, and explained: "Don't look at our small village, but it has a history of six hundred years, the first generation of ancestors, but what about the royal guards, the emperor often came here to worship, praying for the blessing of Amaterasu, and now although the emperor is not coming, the tradition of sacrifice has been maintained." ”
"Then I'm really at the right time." Chen Chen smiled faintly and raised his eyes to look at the entrance of the village: "The one who came here is the sacrificial team?" ”
"That's right!" The master turned his head to look at the entrance of the village, and also shouted excitedly: "Look, the witch is here!" ”
Hearing that the shrine maiden was coming, everyone also cheered, and with the cheers, they saw the sacrificial procession passing through the crowd and heading towards the direction of the temple, there were wizards and monks chanting and praying in front and back, and there was an eight-lift seat in the center of the procession, on the top, there were two girls about sixteen or seventeen years old, dressed in white and red-edged kimonos, with delicate appearances, and what was even more surprising was that the two looked almost identical, the only difference was that one had a small tear mole under the right eye, and the other did not.
Obviously, it's a pair of twin sisters.
At this moment, the appearance of the witch also pushed the atmosphere of the whole sacrifice to the most, and everyone excitedly followed behind the sacrificial procession, heading towards the gate of the temple, and the small village was very lively.
Chen Chen followed the back of the team silently, observing the scene in the temple.
The iris scanner probed around carefully, and found nothing unusual, nor did there be any signs of a security device or a special mechanism, it looked like an ordinary temple.
Chen Chen gradually reassured, he should have been too worried, the father and son of the Zhao family were just here to find a hiding place, obviously they didn't know that they had a monitor installed on their bodies, so they had no defense.
It's just that there are many people now, and everyone is gathered in the temple, so it's not suitable to do it, so let's wait for the evening.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen turned around and planned to leave.
Just when he turned around, he accidentally rubbed with someone who passed by in a hurry, Chen Chen's physical fitness is now far beyond ordinary people, so naturally there is nothing wrong, but the other party is a stumbling person who almost fell.
Chen Chen hurriedly pulled the other party back, and at the same time expressed his apologies, he was so polite, the other party was naturally embarrassed to entangle any more, smiled at the moment, lifted the bag that fell on the ground and planned to leave.
Chen Chen glanced at the bag casually, and his gaze could no longer be separated!
Through the mouth of the bag, some kind of spar shone inside, and the iris scanner immediately sent out a prompt: Precious energy has been found, Kedarin Crystal!
Kaydarin Crystals?
Chen Chen was taken aback, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the other party: "I'm sorry, I want to ask you about something." ”
"Ah, it's okay." The man stopped, smiled, turned his head and asked, "Is there anything you want to ask me?" ”
"I see some crystals in your bag." Chen Chen looked around casually and asked calmly: "I think it's beautiful, I like it very much, where did you get it?" ”
"Oh, this one." The other party laughed, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the beach: "I found it on the beach over there, I guess there are quite a few, basically I come to find a few every year, take them back to make a gesture, and exchange a little money." ”
"That's ......" Chen Chen glanced in the direction of his finger, and then retracted his gaze: "Take it back and make it into jewelry?" So you're a craftsman, do you know who made it? ”
As he spoke, Chen Chen took off the necklace that Luo Xinran had given him from his neck and handed it to the other party for inspection.
The other party took it and looked at it carefully, and then handed it back to Chen Chen: "Hehe, this is my work from seven or eight years ago, I recognized the carver on it at a glance, and I didn't expect to meet the old man." ”
"What a coincidence!" Hearing that the other party was the craftsman, Chen Chen couldn't help but feel happy, put away the necklace and asked, "I just wanted to find you, but I didn't expect to meet you in this place." ”
"You want to find me?" The other party was slightly stunned: "Do you want to create jewelry?" ”
"Actually, my girlfriend likes this crystal very much, she knows that the crystal used in this chain is a part of the whole piece, so she wants to find the rest and put it together." Chen Chen casually recklessly said: "You know, girls like this, I think it's very commemorative and romantic." ”
"Well, that's embarrassing, everything you built at that time has already been sold." The craftsman smiled and shook his head, "If you need it, I can make you another pair." ”
"It's sold...... Chen Chen pretended to be disappointed: "Then, do you remember who they sold to?" ”
