Chapter 19: The Rupture
Reading Pavilion 『 』, the full text is free to read. After searching in the Hall of Impermanence with Huzi, we couldn't find the mechanism. But I suddenly laughed, and said to myself, there is nothing to find, this basement will not grow vegetables, but grain. Sooner or later, you will come out.
Finally, I sat down in front of a table of food and said, "Huzi, wouldn't it be a pity if you immediately go down and call all our people up, and don't you eat this meal?" So we stayed and waited for them to come out. Anyway, there is food and drink here, and the accommodation is good. ”
Huzi was immediately happy and said, "Eh, this method is good." Can't we find it and can't wait? I see how long they can hide, and if they can run, the monk can't run the temple. ”
Huzi went away happily, and I put the switchblade on the table, and then took the two women here to eat and drink.
The meals here are very rich, there are meat and vegetarian dishes, there are vegetables and soups, and the three of us ate a fat belly. At last the two women were so interested in their wine that they pushed their glasses and changed them.
I tasted this wine, and the degree was only a dozen degrees, slightly sweet, and it would leave a fragrance in my mouth after swallowing it. The wine was so good that I couldn't help but take a drink.
It was already eleven o'clock in the evening when Huzi brought all the people here, and it really took time to pack up his things and take them to hurry. But when they arrived, everyone was very excited to see the full table of food, and they all sat down and grinned and began to eat.
And I went to the backyard at this time and started arranging a place for everyone to sleep. It seems that the main house and the main hall are the most suitable.
I asked the four of them to sleep in the main house in the back, and the four of us were in the main hall. In this way, once there is a situation in the back, Huzi and I can quickly support the past, even if the support is not timely, if they want to escape, they will have to pass through this hall to pass. It can be said that this hall is the throat seat of the entire temple, and it must be guarded here.
After eating and drinking, Huzi and I brushed the dishes and chopsticks on a stone table in the backyard. To put it bluntly, Huzi and I are not lazy people, and we can't stand the scene of eating a mess, which is not only a matter of habit, but also a matter of hygiene.
If you don't deal with the leftovers, it's easy to attract unclean things, such as cockroaches, flies, and mice, and these things will attract foxes and Wong Tai Sin, and it's difficult to be peaceful. Cockroaches are even more troublesome if they get into their ears, and trying to get them out is like climbing to the sky.
Seeing me and Huzi clean up, Lu Xueman and Yuwanwan were a little embarrassed and came out to help, but Huzi and I refused. The Black Dragon Valley has come over with strong winds and waves, so what is such a trivial matter as washing dishes.
Huzi and I cleaned up the front, sent the tables, chairs and benches into the dining room, and returned to the main hall. In order to make room, Huzi moved all the statues to a corner and piled them together, so that people could sleep on the stage.
As soon as we lay down, we heard someone screaming from behind.
I got up with Huzi and ran to the back, entered the house and looked at it, and instantly understood. Xu Hui pointed to the dresser and said, "Yes, there are ghosts!" ”
Huzi and I realized that we had forgotten to tell them that there was something wrong with the mirror. Simply, Huzi picked up the bronze mirror on the dresser, held it in his arms and said, "I'll take the ghost away, you guys sleep well." ”
Huzi and I came out and returned to the front of the Hall of Impermanence with the mirror, and Huzi said, "I was frightened by this mirror." ”
After speaking, he looked in the mirror, and was amazed while looking for it, and said, "Lao Chen, how do you say this came out?" ”
Yu Wanwan said: "You two are really bold enough. But when I think about it, I can figure it out, this mirror is not flat, it is a magic mirror polished according to a fixed pattern. ”
Huzi touched the mirror and said, "No, it's flat!" ”
Yuwanwan said: "There is a layer of transparent resin, and the resin is flat. ”
Huzi turned the mirror to the side to look at it.
"The edges are also flat," Yuwanwan said. You don't need to shine it, it must be a magic mirror. It seems that this group of people has a lot of magic skills, but when you meet the two of you, you deserve to be unlucky, you are not afraid of heaven and earth! ”
Lu Xueman said: "I really don't know how there can be people like you. I think I'm bold enough, I don't think I'm even a tenth of you. ”
Huzi put the mirror next to him, looked at it and said, "Don't say it, if you don't see this thing coldly, it's really scary." ”
Huzi and I took turns on duty that night, and nothing happened. During the day, when I had nothing to do, I made up for sleep, and then walked carefully back and forth in this ghost temple, trying to find clues to the mechanism, but I didn't find anything.
But I know that there is a possibility of hiding a mechanism here, and there is underground water here, and if there is water, there is power, and it can push the mechanism to operate. If Mo Pi was here, she would definitely be able to find the mechanism in a very short time, and she was an expert at it.
In the afternoon, Huzi went to insert a lot of fish and came back, and with the help of the pot stove here, we stewed a pot of fish, and found a lot of bacon and soaked winter bamboo shoots in the warehouse. We made bacon fried winter bamboo shoots.
When eating, everyone already understands that there are no ghosts living here, because ghosts do not need to eat bacon and winter bamboo shoots. It's clearly a group of people living here.
Not only did we find bacon and winter bamboo shoots, but we also found a vat of rice and a vat of white/noodles, which were their rations. If they're not hungry, they can hide it, and it doesn't matter if they leave here, we'll leave here after eating the rice and noodles.
But I have a judgment that they won't survive for three days, and they will definitely come out to negotiate with us. All we have to do is wait. It also makes sense to wait here, we have been tossed and choked in the last few days, and here we can just correct it and move on after recuperation.
It's a win-win-win, so to speak.
Sure enough, on the night of the third day, I was awakened by the shouts in the backyard, and I got up with Huzi and went to the backyard together, and saw several shadows standing in the backyard.
Huzi and I shone our flashlights and saw that it was none other than the black and white impermanence and the ghost king.
The ghost king was carrying a ghost-headed knife in his hand, and there was a row of little ghosts kneeling in front of him. The little ghost trembled, and the ghost king stepped forward and used the ghost head knife to cut down the little ghost to the ground, and the human skull rolled out.
Looking at the black and white impermanence again, the body actually floated in the air, Bai Wuchang took a feather fan, and in his hand was a soul hooking rope. The Ghost King looked at us at this time and shouted, "Who are you waiting for?" Are you tired of trespassing on the? Why don't you leave soon, but when?! ”
Huzi directly pulled the saw out, and said as he walked forward: "If there are any other tricks, even if you use them, if Hu Ye does it, you won't have a chance." ”
I also walked forward with the knife in my hand, and when we were about to walk in front of the ghost king, the little imps on the ground who had been beheaded suddenly stood up, stuck another head out of their clothes, turned and ran.
At this time, the ghost king stuck out his tongue again and licked his eyes. To be honest, this trick is really scary, but Huzi and I are mentally prepared, and after watching it, I said, "What kind of ability is licking your eyes?" Have the ability to lick your own ass/stock. ”
Huzi and I were just about to make a move, when the white bone spirit fell from the sky, and she was holding a rope in her hand, and the rope was tied to the locust tree. She threw up her hands and said, "Guys, let's stop playing, let's stop playing, okay?" You win, and we throw in the towel. ”
The black and white impermanence also fell at this time, and he reached out and touched his waist, which was tied to a steel wire, and the steel wire hung on the tree. After the two of them took off their hats, Bai Wuchang touched the top of his head and said with a smile: "Everyone, we are actually a troupe, and we have no grievances with you, why are we so aggressive!" ”
I exclaimed, "You know that there is no injustice and no hatred!" In the tomb in front, why harm us? ”
The white bone spirit suddenly said loudly: "It's all a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!" "High-quality and free reading is in the Reading Pavilion."
