Chapter 669 [Empty House]

The rain gradually turned lighter, and Bai Yutang stood in the rain, looking down at the pale monk Zhiyun lying on the ground in a daze.

At this moment, a familiar aura approached, a shadow appeared on the ground, and the rain overhead was blocked.

Bai Yutang turned his head, and Zhan Zhao was already standing beside him with an umbrella in one hand and Juque in the other.

They hadn't seen each other for a while, and the two were busy looking at each other to see if there was any change, even if it was a subtle or slight change......

In the distance, Bai Xia leaned against the pillar with his arms crossed his arms and looked at the two people who were looking at each other if there was no one next to him, shaking his head and sighing, "Oh, my son was abducted and can't be found." ā€

"Uncle......" The little chubby dun Liu Nan suddenly dragged Bai Xia.

Bai Xia lowered his head and squinted at him, obviously dissatisfied with the word "uncle".

Liu Fu pointed not far away and motioned for Bai Xia to look.

Bai Xia turned his face and saw that the few people from Gaohe Village, after seeing Zhanzhao coming, they all turned around and left, moving very fast.

Bai Xia touched his chin lightly, what did he see Zhanzhao running?

……

"I said."

Interrupting the two who were looking at each other, Lin Yehuo squatted beside the great monk, stretched out his hand and poked Master Zhiyun's cheeks, "It's cold, is the monk dead?" ā€

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao came back to their senses and looked down.

"No......" Zhanzhao reached out and touched the monk's neck, breathing a sigh of relief, "I'm still alive, and my pulse feels stable." ā€

"Do you want to wake him up?" Lin Yehuo said, stretched out his hand to pinch the monk's middle and pinched it twice, but the monk did not wake up.

Zhanzhao frowned, "Injured?" ā€

Bai Yutang shook his head, "I basically didn't use my internal strength, could I have gone mad before?" ā€

"The pulse is not messy." While Zhan Zhao crossed his arms and looked at it, he looked around with some confusion.

Because I don't know when five children came running around, I stared at Zhiyun curiously. Because they were afraid of the rain, the five little ones squeezed under the umbrella of Lin Yehuo.

Huo Feng also wondered, looking at the few children holding his legs, the youngest of them was fat and round, two circles fatter than the little four.

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yu.

Bai Yutang looked at him.

Zhan Zhao pointed to the children and asked, "Who is it?" ā€

Bai Yutang said, "The little apprentice of the Tianshan Sect. ā€

"Oh ......" Zhanzhao and Lin's night fire is quite fresh, Bai Yutang actually helped the Tianshan faction bring such a small apprentice.

Zhan Zhao took the golden mask in Bai Yutang's hand and looked at it, and then looked at Zhiyun, "I always think it's incredible, he usually refuses to shoot even a mosquito to death." ā€

"Wake him up and ask, and you'll find out." Bai Yutang mentions yƬ.

"Master." Zhanzhao squatted down and slapped Master Zhiyun twice, but the monk still didn't wake up.

Zhan Zhao stood up, was silent for a moment, and warned everyone, "None of you are allowed to say it." ā€

The crowd was puzzled - what to say......

I saw Zhanzhao raise his leg and kick it in the face of the great monk.

"Poof...... cough cough cough ......"

Zhanzhao's foot made a footprint on Master Zhiyun's face, but the monk really woke up.

Zhanzhao calmly withdrew his feet, his expression as if nothing had happened.

The monk coughed for a while, then reached out and rubbed his nose, "Oops...... Buddha Mitha. ā€

Lin Yehuo reached out and patted him on the head, "Are you awake?" ā€

Master Zhiyun covered his nose and looked up at his face, surprised, "Why are you?" ā€

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang and was puzzled - he was still that good-tempered monk who was confused.

Bai Yutang was also puzzled, the current Master Zhiyun was indeed the great monk he knew, completely different from the madman who was slashing with a knife just now.

When the monk put down his hand, he saw a string of nosebleeds under his nose.

Zhan Zhao looks to the sky.

Lin Yehuo asked the monk, "Why are you dressed like this?" ā€

The monk was slightly stunned, looked down at his wet black clothes, looked at the ground again, looked around, and looked confused, "Where is the poor monk?" ā€

Then he looked at himself, "Whose clothes is this?" What about the robes of the poor monks? ā€

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, and Lin Yehuo also squinted, "Master, are you sleepwalking?" ā€

The monk was confused, and stood up while stretching out his hand and scratching his head...... As he stood up, the people around him who had come out to watch with courage all ran away with a bang.

A few bold ones said to Zhan Zhao, "Lord Zhan! That assailant just wielded a knife and killed a few of them! ā€

"That's it! If it weren't for the fifth master's timely action, he might have hacked people to death! ā€

"It's a monk! Why is it so vicious?! ā€

Zhiyun stood stupidly, looking at the people around him who were looking at him in horror, puzzled, "What's the matter?" ā€

Zhanzhao calmed him down and asked him, "Master, what do you remember?" ā€

"What......" Master Zhiyun thought for a moment, "I and the second junior brother and the third junior brother came to Kaifeng to participate in Bian Sheng's golden basin hand-washing ......"

"Zhiqian and Master Zhizen are also here?" Lin Yehuo was curious, "What about them?" ā€

"We spent the night in a house." Zhiyun touched his head, "After falling asleep...... Wake up and be here, hiss...... Why does it hurt so much in my body? ā€

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang and motioned to the mask in his hand - do you want to sue him?

Bai Yutang was helpless - with the character of a monk, he knew that he might die on the spot if he cut people everywhere.

The two were hesitating, so they heard Lin Yehuo say, "Monk, are you stupid or are you fascinated by ghosts?" Wearing a mask and slashing people everywhere with a knife. ā€

"What?!" Master Zhiyun gasped.

At this time, several shadow guards ran over and said, "Fortunately, those people ran fast, only slightly injured three people, and two more fell and injured, and more than a dozen broke their feet, and then many frightened children wanted to find the monk desperately." ā€

Master Zhiyun paused, "The poor monk actually did such an evil deed, the poor monk insulted Buddhism, and the poor monk ......"

Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo hurriedly grabbed the monk who was about to commit suicide, "Don't be a poor monk, where did you live last night?" Did you meet some bad guy who was drugged? ā€

"Uh......" the monk touched his round head, "near the official road not far from Yaojia Village, there is a big mansion. ā€

Zhan Zhao was puzzled, the official road near Yaojia Village was lined with small hills and groves on both sides, where did the house come from?

Bai Yutang thought for a moment, "Take us to have a look." ā€

After speaking, everyone left Yaojia Village with Master Zhiyun and walked on the official road.

……

By this time, the rain had lightened, but the sky was getting darker.

Master Zhiyun told everyone about their experience last night.

In the middle of the night last night, the three of them rushed to this official road, and the rain became heavier and heavier, and the three of them wanted to rush to Yaojia Village to stay in the hotel to avoid the rain.

But when they passed through a forest, they heard a faint cry for help from the forest, so when the three of them entered the forest, they found an old woman who had fallen in the forest and could not stand up.

"How old is the old woman?" Zhan Zhao was curious.

"Seventy-something." Zhiyun said.

Everyone was puzzled, and looked back and forth, there was no shop in front of the village on this official road, why was there an old lady in her seventies in the forest in the middle of the night?

"The old lady said that her son and daughter-in-law lived in the mountains, and she came from Yaojia Village in the afternoon, but the road on the mountain was slippery, and she fell and rolled down the mountain, and she thought she was going to die here." Zhiyun said, "So our senior brother carried her home." ā€

As he spoke, the monk pointed to a small forest in front of him and said, "This is it!" I remember that there were two raised bluestones at the intersection. ā€

As everyone walked into the woods, Zhiyun pointed to a piece of mud that had been trampled on and footprints and said, "This is it, we found the old lady here." ā€

"What's that?" Bai Xia said, pointing to the mud.

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and they saw a red kapok petal on top of a black mud.

Zhan Zhao raised his face and looked at it, there was no kapok around here...... Where do the petals come from?

"We're going down this mountain road." Master Zhiyun said, leading everyone up the mountain.

"The old woman pointed us the mountain path." The monk said as he walked, "She said that her husband's surname was Xia, and we called him Mrs. Xia." ā€

"After going up the mountain, there is indeed a big house." Zhiyun said, "There are two words Xia Fu on the plaque, we call the door, and what comes out is an old housekeeper." Mrs. Xia's son also came out, looking like a scholar, saying thank you for saving his mother, asking the housekeeper to take us to remote accommodation, and preparing food for us, which was very kind. ā€

Zhan Zhao frowned when he heard this--the vicinity of Yaojia Village is under the jurisdiction of Kaifeng, and there are villages all around it, but there are a few farms or courtyards of large families, but there doesn't seem to be any Xia Mansion......

"We finished our meal and washed up and went to sleep...... After that, when you wake up, you ......," the great monk said as he shook his head, "what's going on?" ā€

As they spoke, the group walked to the top of the mountain.

When the word "Master Zhiyun" came out ......, he was stunned on the spot.

In front of his finger, there was indeed a house.

But it was not what he described as a "big family's house", but an abandoned house, or ...... Deserted house.

The village is in disrepair and dilapidated, the door frames are crooked, the walls are broken, overgrown with vines and weeds, and the houses inside are also in tatters, and on the gate, there is a crooked plaque with the words "Xia Fu" on it.

"Mother!" Bai Xia jumped, "What did you eat here last night?" Who greeted you? Mountain demon or little ghost? ā€

Master Zhiyun was shocked, this enlightened monk just now knew that he had cut people, and his expression was not exaggerated at this moment. He shook his head repeatedly, "Impossible...... Last night it was a complete mansion! How so! ā€

Everyone looked at each other, and at this moment, a cloudy wind passed, and there was a sound of "Sarasa" in the woods, and the door of the deserted house suddenly "creaked".

The five children jumped up and grabbed Bai Yutang's clothes collectively.

Bai Yutang looked back at the group of children hiding behind him.

The little chubby dun asked Master Zhiyun, "Master, did you take a closer look at the old lady last night?" Does she have feet? ā€

"Huh?" The monk is inexplicable, "foot ......"

"Is there a shadow?" Liu Fu also asked.

"That's right! Is it a goblin change? ā€

A lot of children gossiping.

"What ......" At this time, Bai Xia suddenly poked Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao's shoulders, stretched out his hand from the two of them, pointed to several weedy mounds next to the deserted mansion, and asked, "That...... Isn't it a grave? ā€

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, there were several graves next to the mansion, and there was a stone tablet in front of it, which was mostly covered by weeds, and half of the word "Xia" could be vaguely seen.

Lin Yehuo jumped up and rubbed goosebumps, while kicking the monk, "You hit a ghost, this is?" Let you dare to pick up the old lady in the barren mountains and mountains in the middle of the night! ā€

Master Zhiyun was even more shocked, "The poor monk has been in Buddhism for more than 40 years, and he has never seen a ghost......

"Wait a minute." Bai Yutang interrupted the two and asked Zhiyun, "What about your two junior brothers?" ā€

"Oops." Master Zhiyun hurriedly rushed towards the deserted mansion, and shouted as he entered the door, "Senior brother! Junior ......"

"Shhh......h

Lin Yehuo also looked around, "It seems to have a breath." ā€

Bai Yutang pointed to a dilapidated house at the end, "Over there!" ā€

The crowd ran to the ruined house.

When I walked into the room, I saw two monks sleeping on a tattered wooden bed, both wearing Dharma robes, and there was a set of the same clothes next to them, which should be worn by Master Zhiyun.

"Senior brother!" Zhiyun rushed to the bed, grabbed the two monks and shook them.

But the two of them didn't wake up, and the situation was similar to Master Zhiyun just now.

The monk raised his hand and punched the two junior disciples twice.

"Ahem......" both coughed.

Zhan Zhao frowned slightly and looked at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang also noticed that when the two masters, Zhiqian and Zhichan, woke up and coughed, two faint puffs of black smoke came out of their noses, and they were gone in a blink of an eye......

Lin Yehuo looked at the two of them - was there when Zhiyun woke up just now?

Both of them shook their heads, it was outside just now, and it was raining again, so they didn't see clearly.

Zhiqian and Zhizen were also confused when they woke up, what they remembered was similar to what Master Zhiyun remembered, they had been sleeping until now after they slept last night, and what was even more evil was ...... The two also said that they were obviously alive last night, and they were still in a beautiful mansion.

At this time, the sky is getting darker and darker, and the wind is gusting on the mountain, and the broken house is blown by the wind and always makes a "crunch" sound.

These three eminent monks sat on the bed board stupidly, feeling that the scriptures they had spent half their lives had been read in vain.

Bai Yutang looked at the golden mask, and was also confused.

Zhan Zhao looked at a falling table next to him.

Lin Yehuo picked up half of the table board and said, "The incision where the table top is broken is flat. ā€

"The bedpost was also cut off by a sharp blade." Ochre pointed to the bedpost and a missing corner of the bed, "This is also caused by a sharp weapon. ā€

"This place is kind of interesting......" Zhanzhao began to look at the house.

On the side, Bai Xia patted Zhanzhao on the shoulder and said, "Alas, it's better to pick up a murderous mansion than to pick up a corpse, a great luck in misfortune." ā€

Zhan Zhao had no choice but to look at Bai Xia.

Ochre touched his chin, "Is it already famous......?"

Lin Yehuo poked coldly on the side and said, "The corpse has been picked up this morning." ā€

Bai Xia and Bai Yutang both looked at Zhan Zhao in surprise.

Zhan Zhao pointed to the three monks and said to Bai Yutang, "These three and this house are all yours!" ā€

"So, today you two picked up a corpse and a haunted mansion?" Lin Yehuo looked at Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang and nodded, and sighed, "You two are really ...... A perfect match...... Match it in every way! ā€
