Li Mu didn't know what the origin of the old god stick was, but it was certain that the origin was definitely not small, and it had been confirmed many times.

The mystery is about to be revealed.

Li Mu walked through the archway of the 'Young Ancestor's Legacy and came to the gate of the Ancient Temple.

Everything remains the same.

But Li Mu's complexion changed, and he suddenly felt a little bad in his heart.

Because the area around the gate of the ancient temple was overgrown with weeds, the path that was stepped on five years ago has been covered with wild grass again.

The gate was hidden, and there were cobwebs on the door frame.

Push open the gate and enter, the courtyard is overgrown with wild grass, the medicine king hall next to it is already in a semi-collapsed state, several Zen rooms that were used to stack sundries, the doors and windows are also damaged, the rain and wind blow, extremely old.

Startled by the sound of Li Mu pushing open the door, a few wild birds flew up and rushed into the night sky.

In the backyard, the small forest where Li Mu often [Innate Gong] and [True Martial Fist] was already extremely dilapidated, the waist-high weeds grew extremely densely, and the few rows of vegetable fields by the woods had long since disappeared.

The kitchen where Li Mu used to cook in the past completely collapsed, and the well at the door had dried up.

A not-so-good premonition floated in my heart.

Li Mu quickly searched the entire Burning Lamp Temple, but there was no trace of the old god stick.

What's going on?

The old god stick left?

Li Muzai searched carefully, but there was no trace.

He even used the Celestial Eye Vision, looked around, but there were no clues, and used the [Searching Spell] to try to sense and search for the traces of the old god stick, but it had no effect.

It's very strange, as if the obscene old man in Li Mu's memory is just a memory, not real.

This made Li Mu disappointed, and at the same time, he was also a little worried.

The old god stick can't be an accident, right?

Li Mu was concerned about the chaos, and he suddenly became worried.

For a long time, the old god stick has been the pillar of his heart, although it is unreliable and very obscene, but for Li Mu, it is like a 'life coach'.

The reason why Li Mu did not directly break through the Broken Realm on the Shenzhou Continent, stepped into the galaxy to compete with the Outer Heaven Cultivators, and did not further improve his strength was because he wanted to return to the earth first, find the old god stick, and solve many mysteries.

But now, the Burning Lamp Temple is in a panic, and the old god stick is gone.

Li Mu suddenly had a feeling of losing his backbone.

Looking at the signs of panic in the temple, it is obvious that no one has taken care of it for at least two or three years, that is, at least two or three years ago, the old god stick has left.

Li Mu sat at the door of the old god's former meditation room, and couldn't help but be in a daze.

He wondered if the old god had left the Burning Lamp Temple and gone somewhere else, or had he left the earth completely?

Moreover, the really weird thing is that, logically speaking, when the old god stick leaves, he should leave some clues and hints or something, otherwise he will come back after twenty years, how to find it?

Even taking a step back, with Li Mu's current cultivation, as long as there is such a person in this world, with the [Searching for People Spell] or the backtracking technique, some clues can be found.

But on the contrary, there were no traces, and Li Mu could not find any clues.

It seems that there is a great supernatural power, and all traces of it have been erased with supreme secret techniques.

This is even more ridiculous.

Li Mu didn't think that on this earth, there were so-called great supernatural beings who were stronger than himself.

He sat at the door of the meditation room and thought about it all night.

A new day arrives, and the morning light covers the temple.

In the village below, the sound of chickens and dogs is heard, it is autumn, it is the harvest season, this time, the village is the busiest time of the year.

Li Mu walked out of the temple.

On the country roads, there are many farmers rushing to the fields to harvest their crops.

"Third Uncle Zhang, third aunt, your old couple is still so tough. Li Mu looked at these acquaintances from five years ago and went up to say hello with a smile.

"You, young man, are you ...... Hey, it looks a bit like Xiao Mu, it can't really be Xiao Mu, right?" Third Uncle Zhang looked at it carefully for a while, and finally recognized it from between his eyebrows, the handsome guy in front of him who had risen a lot was the Li Mu five years ago.

Third Uncle Zhang said in surprise: "Xiao Mu, did you escape from the deep mountains?"

"What?" Li Mu was a little confused at that time.

What does it mean to escape from the mountains?

The third aunt said: "Five years ago, you disappeared, and Master Li said that you were abducted and trafficked to the mountains to dig coal......

Li Mu: "......"

The old god is worthy of an old nerve, and this kind of lie can be said.

"Actually, I was sent by my grandfather to study in other places, and I only graduated this year, so I just came back. Li Mu had no choice but to lie and said: "It is a military academy, which is completely closed, and it is not allowed to bring mobile phones or communication, so I have not come back for the past five years." ”

"Well, that's good, at that time, we all heard that Master Li said that you had been abducted, and we were very worried about you, and we joined forces to report the case, but nothing was found, and then Master Li disappeared, and we thought that he traveled all over the country to find you. Uncle Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, more and more villagers passed by, and they all recognized Li Mu.

"Komaki, you've finally escaped. ”

"Which mountain did you go to dig coal?"

"How did you escape?"

"Did Master Li find you?"

The kind and simple villagers were very concerned about Li Mu, and they all gathered around and asked nonsense.

"You should call the police, arrest all those traffickers, and execute them. ”

"Yes, now the laws of the country have changed, and human traffickers, like drug trafficking, are arrested and sentenced to death. ”

There were a few uncles who were indignant.

Li Mu had no choice but to explain it helplessly, and everyone suddenly realized.

This is also in line with Master Li's style of playing the world, he is always unexpected. Uncle Zhang, an old man in the village, nodded, and said, "It's really the style of immortals outside the world." ”

Li Mu was speechless.

What's the situation, lying has deceived people to call the police, old man, how can you still deduce from this what 'the style of the immortals' in the world', you look like a brainless fan, there is no way to communicate anymore.

"So, my grandfather left the Burning Lamp Temple by himself?" Li Mu asked again.

The sun gradually rose, and the neighbors of the villagers were very kind when they saw Li Mu, and they were not in a hurry to go to the ground, they all sat on the side of the road and chatted with Li Mu.

"For a while, Master Li always said that he wanted to leave, the world was so big, he wanted to go and see, he chattered for a while, and he looked preoccupied, I remember that he was doing Dharma for Liu Laoer's family, and the next day, he disappeared. Uncle Zhang, a brain-dead fan, recalled.

"Gone, didn't anyone see him leave?" asked Li Mu.

Another old man said: "Yes, the next day Master Li disappeared, I remember clearly, that day on the north plateau of the 'Blessing Farmhouse', and also sent someone to invite Master Li to preside over the opening ceremony, said that it was made in advance, and the night before I made a phone call, but when I went to the temple to see, Master Li was gone." ”

"Alas, this is a big loss for our Randeng Temple Village, in the years when Master Li was here, the wind and rain in the village were smooth, and it must have been Master Li who protected us. "Uncle Zhang, a brain-dead fan, is extremely determined.

"That'...... My grandfather never came back after he left?Have you heard of him appearing in other places?" Li Mu asked reluctantly.

"Never seen again. A villager said: "At the beginning, we also thought that his old man would come back after going out for a walk, and he regularly sent people to clean up in the Burning Lamp Temple, carry water and sweep the floor, but later, the temple was haunted, and some strange things appeared in a row, so scared that everyone did not dare to go, and the temple was abandoned." ”

"Haunted?" Li Mu was stunned and began to have some guesses.

"That's right, when someone went to clean, they saw a few ghost shadows flashing, and they were cold to their necks, saying some nonsense, and when they came back, they were seriously ill, and some people were bitten by poisonous snakes inside, and almost lost their lives, and some people saw that at night, there were female ghosts in red clothes floating around in the temple, without ...... feet."

"I saw with my own eyes that there were ghosts fighting in the temple, and pools of blood appeared out of thin air on the ground, and all the wild birds inside died and fell to the ground. ”

"Zhang Daxian from the neighboring village has come to see it, and said that there are sneaky things in this Burning Lamp Temple, and when Master Li was there in the past, he could still suppress it, but after Master Li left, he couldn't suppress it......"

"In the first two years that Master Li left, he also came to a large company in other places, a big boss, a bodyguard in a luxury car and a black suit and sunglasses, went to the Burning Lamp Temple to offer incense, and also inquired about the whereabouts of Master Li in the village. ”

The villagers are gossiping.

Li Mu listened and listened, vaguely aware of something.

The old god stick seems to have taken the initiative to leave the Burning Lamp Temple, he is hiding from something, those so-called ghosts, it may be some people in the martial arts, or someone is deliberately pretending to be a ghost...... Anyway, the Burning Lamp Temple may have been noticed by some people.

This kind of speculation made Li Mu feel a little more at ease.

Although the old god stick is unreliable, he is very life-sparing, cunning and cunning, ordinary people should have no way to take him, and looking at some of the things that happened later, those who looked for him didn't seem to find it.

"Xiao Mu, you have never seen your grandfather since you were in school?" asked Uncle Zhang, a brain-dead fan.

Li Mu had no choice but to continue to lie, shook his head and said: "The annual tuition fee is directly to the card, and I have never seen my grandfather, I just graduated this year, and when I came back to him, I thought he was still in the Burning Lamp Temple." ”

Uncle Zhang then said with great emotion: "Li Da Shi is really a god, and the dragon sees the head but does not see the end, the game is in the world, and the world is cynical...... I hope I can see him again in this life. ”

"Xiao Mu, what are your plans next?" asked Third Uncle Zhang.

Li Mu thought for a while and said, "I'll live in the Burning Lamp Temple for the time being, pack up, and wait for grandpa to come back, you can't run around, what if grandpa can't find me when he comes back?"

"But this temple is haunted and unclean. The third aunt said a little worriedly: "Why don't you go to live in your aunt's house?"

Li Mu smiled and said: "It's okay, auntie, back then, I followed my grandfather and learned some skills to catch ghosts, don't be afraid, even if you can't catch it, you can still defend yourself, and there will be no accidents, but you uncles and aunts, I have one thing, I have to ask you for a favor." ”

"Say, Xiao Mu, it's all my own people. ”

"That's it, you're welcome, folks in my hometown. ”

"You helped us a lot when you were in the village, and every winter vacation, you gave us free pig killing......

The crowd was very welcoming.

Li Mu said with a smile: "Please help me publicize it, and tell the villagers in Shili and Eight Townships, just say that Master Li's grandson is back, and he wants to return to his old business and support Master Li's signboard. From today onwards, I will be living in this lamp-burning temple. ”

"What? You're going to catch ghosts?"

"It's not easy to do. ”

"I don't recognize young people in this industry. ”

Everyone persuaded a few words, but seeing that Li Mu had made up his mind, he didn't say anything anymore.

In the afternoon of the same day, the young and middle-aged people in the village, under the leadership of the old man, also came to the Burning Lamp Temple to help Li Mu repair the collapsed house, re-dig the well, and send some firewood and bedding to help Li Mu clean up the place where he lived.

"Thank you, guys. Li Mu was also very moved in his heart.

Five years have passed, and these villagers are still so simple and enthusiastic, and they still remember him, which makes him feel like home.
