Chapter Ninety-Four: A Chinese Ghost Story
Lu Xiatao, who was hiding behind Yanruo Temple, was already in no hurry, but Yan Mengtong was calm, and he had to brew more atmosphere, so he didn't let a few people in.
I don't know where an old crow flew in, and it quacked twice, strange and infiltrating, Yan Mengtong looked around, and felt that it was almost there, so he ordered a few people to slowly sneak into Yanruo Temple from the back window.
A total of three people came in, including Lu Xiatao and another girl, all of whom had been carefully dressed, their hair was messy, their faces were painted with colorful colors, and they were holding a red silk scarf in their mouths.
Yan Mengtong didn't put on makeup, he secretly hid on the side to see the opportunity, and if he encountered the right time, he was ready to take action to capture the hateful Shui Bingyue.
Several people touched in with unusual care, barely making a sound, and came to a tall Buddha statue and hid.
Even so, it inexplicably alarmed Kong Miao, who was resting on the side.
She didn't hear any sound, but because of her intuition, she felt the abnormality around her, and was about to stand up, but was stopped by Gu Jiang.
"It's windy outside, don't be suspicious. ”
Finally, when it was time for Gu Jiang to play, he first appeased Kong Miao, and then called a few people up and said, "It's okay, I'll tell you a story." ”
Luan Su liked to listen to Gu Jiang's stories the most, and soon came over, and the fat girl also sat up straight and looked at Gu Jiang with interest.
"Do you know what the name of this Yanruo Temple used to be?"
The fat girl shook her head blankly.
Gu Jiang smiled and said softly: "This place was not called Yanruo Temple before, the original name was Lanruo Temple. ”
"A long time ago, a scholar named Ning Caichen went to Beijing to take the exam, and the road encountered heavy rain, so he came to Lanruo Temple to take refuge, and was attracted by a beautiful piano sound at night, and found that the piano sound was played by a girl named Xiaoqian. The scholar couldn't help but be attracted by the girl's beauty, and the two met in this Lanruo Temple. Who knew that Xiao Qian was a female ghost manipulated by the tree spirit grandmother, wandering in the Lanruo Temple just to find a strong man to absorb the yang essence......"
Lu Xiatao, who was about to sneak out from behind the Buddha statue, couldn't help but pause when she heard this, and glanced at another companion, her expression was a little strange, and she involuntarily retreated behind the Buddha statue.
Coupled with Yan Mengtong, the three of them hid behind the Buddha statue and listened to Gu Jiang talk about a round, even they didn't pay attention, the distance between them was getting closer to each other unconsciously, and when they heard Gu Jiang talking about grandma's long tongue sticking into the belly to grab the essence, Lu Xiatao couldn't help but shudder.
I couldn't help but ask, "Is what he said true or false?"
Yan Mengtong looked at the two of them with a solemn face, and also said: "How do I know, it can't be true, right? Even if it's true, many years have passed, and he must be talking nonsense." ”
The Yanruo Temple became quieter and quieter, and the faint sound of breathing could be heard, and these breathing sounds were not only Luan Su and the fat girl's.
Gu Jiang felt that the current atmosphere was really too appropriate, telling about the past, he tried his best to understand it, and said it as realistically and movingly as possible, making people feel immersive, not only to scare Yan Mengtong and Lu Xiatao, but in fact, if he could scare Luan Su, Gu Jiang could also take advantage of the opportunity, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to go to the cinema with Luan Su to watch a movie in the Wuling Continent, so he had to make do with it in this dilapidated temple.
It's just that Luan Su's performance was a little unexpected by Gu Jiang, and after talking for a long time, Luan Su didn't show too much fear except for frowning slightly and seeming to be a little curious about the storyline.
Just waiting for Gu Jiang to pause for a while, Luan Su asked suspiciously, "You mean that Xiaoqian girl is very beautiful, right?"
"Yes, otherwise how could you attract that scholar?"
"But you just said that Xiao Qian has lived for at least a few hundred years, right?
"This ......"
Gu Jiang really didn't know what Luan Su was thinking in his mind, and was thinking about how to answer, when the fat girl on the side pushed Gu Jiang and asked, "By the way, you said that grandma is a thousand-year-old tree demon? Do you know what kind of tree she is? Does it bloom or not? It doesn't bear fruit? Is the fruit delicious?"
“......”
Gu Jiang was speechless for a while.
The fat girl continued to ask: "How can you be sure that she is a thousand-year-old dryad? Will it only be nine hundred years? If we arrest her and cut her back, do you think we will be able to see the annual rings?"
Gu Jiang was speechless for a moment, and the atmosphere he had finally created was ruined.
Hate glared at the fat girl and said, "You still catch her, her tongue is longer than your hair, it gets into your mouth, and sucks your intestines and stomach for you." ”
"If you talk about it again, get out of here!"
Although the fat girl and Luan Su were not afraid, Kong Miao on the side reacted, Gu Jiang looked back a little apologetically, and saw that Kong Miao's face was already green, and he glared at Gu Jiang with anger on his face.
This shout also startled Yan Mengtong and Lu Xiatao behind the Buddha statue.
Several people hurriedly came back to their senses, and the plan they had arranged before was almost forgotten, Lu Xiatao did not delay any longer, and immediately pulled his companion out from behind the Buddha statue.
The hall was really a little dim, and Lu Xiatao didn't dare to walk too fast, even so, she almost tripped over the potholes on the ground.
Looking closely at the footsteps, the front suddenly became faintly clear, and then a dark shadow shook back and forth on the ground.
The two of them subconsciously looked up, and saw a red lantern above their heads flashing with a dim red light, floating in the air like that.
Lu Xiatao's eyes almost popped out, but he didn't dare to make a sound, and before he had time to think about what the situation was, there was a sudden creaking sound in his ears, and a smaller Buddha statue seemed to have life, and it moved towards the direction of the door.
Lu Xiatao was directly stunned, her heart rose to her throat, and her heartbeat could be clearly heard in the entire Yanruo Temple.
The strange thing didn't end, and just when she didn't know what was happening, a rag in the shape of a sheet flew in front of her out of thin air. Nothing was connected to the ground, just hanging in the air.
The sheet flipped up, and there were a pair of dark eyes staring at her, with pupils of different colors, one dark yellow, the other pale blue.
Gradually, her vision became clearer, and just under the rag, a cat's head slowly came to her, and looking at her expression, it seemed to be smiling.
Suddenly, the cat's head opened its mouth, spit out a snake-tail-like tail from its mouth, and shook it in front of Lu Xiatao.
"Mom!"
Lu Xiatao couldn't hold back the fear in her heart anymore, shouted, and rushed out like crazy.
