Chapter 45: The White Jade Puppet, Carrying a Trick
Lu Heming scratched his head and smiled, a little embarrassed.
"I've got you."
The ancient knife is just a burden to me, and it is of great use in Lu Heming's hands.
At the very least, he doesn't have to pull out a baseball bat every time he fights an enemy......
Lu Heming was moved to tears, and held my hand tightly, "Thank you, brother!" If there is anything you want me to help in the future, just say hello, I will go to the soup and ......."
"Spread out!"
The rain just stopped, and it fell a lot heavier, I held the steering wheel and didn't dare to relax, but Lu Heming was making trouble next to me.
Suddenly, Qin Lan shouted in shock behind him, "Brake quickly!" β
On a slippery road in the rain, the brakes were nothing more than a decoration, and I just felt a shock to the body, and a humanoid object bounced off the hood more than five meters away.
"You're in trouble!"
Qin Lan got out of the car in the rain with a blue face, and I hurriedly followed.
Lu Heming had a bitter face, "It's all because I'm too reckless!" Brother, this matter ......"
"It's fine."
I didn't pay attention to Lu Heming, but walked straight to the position of the person who was hit in front of me.
After using the elixir to condense the yin, my spiritual sense was several times sharper than before, and even in the process of traveling, I could sense the "qi" around me.
But any living person can produce "qi", and I didn't feel anything when I hit that guy, there was only one possibility - he was not human!
"Don't come close!"
I grabbed Qin Lan's soft twing, dragged her behind me, and immediately stepped forward to investigate the situation.
The fence of the off-road vehicle was bent and the hood was deflated, and it stands to reason that I was slow and shouldn't have crashed into it like this.
Five meters away, there was a woman lying in the muddy water. She has a slender body, short hair, and does not reveal the slightest breath of a living person......
"Ahemβ"
The woman got up from the muddy water, and when "she" turned around, I was shocked to find that this face turned out to be Zhao Jinhuan!
From the front, he didn't make much difference, but he always gave me the illusion of femininity.
"What a coincidence, to see you again in this way."
Zhao Jinhuan smiled charmingly, and the weird feeling gave me goosebumps all over my body.
The reinforced off-road vehicle was knocked out of shape, but Zhao Jinhuan didn't do anything at all, something was too unreasonable.
Qin Lan breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a trembling voice, "Great, I almost thought I was going to die just now......
"I'm fine." Zhao Jinhuan teased, and then pretended to be relaxed and walked to the car.
"There is no mobile phone signal here, and the rainstorm can't touch the car, if it weren't for you, I don't know how long I would have been in the mountains."
Zhao Jinhuan was not too entangled in the collision, but deliberately covered it up, and there was some taste of wanting to cover up.
Zhao Jinhuan sat in the back seat, and in order to avoid Qin Lan's danger, I glanced at Lu Heming, and he immediately sat next to Zhao Jinhuan.
After the two of them got into the car, I lowered my voice and said to Qin Lan, "Zhao Jinhuan has a problem, you should be careful." β
"Compared to Zhao Jinhuan, it's still your bigger problem, I don't even know if you're a human or a ghost."
Qin Lan's eyebrows frowned slightly, and there was fear, confusion, apprehension, and indescribable feelings in his eyes when he looked at me.
After getting into the car, Qin Lan faced out the window and said nothing.
I watched Zhao Jinhuan's every move through the rearview mirror.
At this time, he is becoming more and more weird, the whole person's posture and temperament are extremely feminine, but he has no qi that belongs to a living person, just like a walking corpse!
Lu Heming stepped forward and put his arm around Zhao Jinhuan's shoulder, "Little brother, you ......"
Before Lu Heming could finish speaking, Zhao Jinhuan's expression suddenly distorted, and he shouted in a sharp tone, "Get out, stinky man!" β
The sharp sound echoed in the car, Qin Lan covered his ears in pain, and even Lu Heming himself was stunned.
The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds, Zhao Jinhuan pursed his lips and smiled, and said a little deliberately, "Just kidding, help everyone refresh themselves." β
"It's not funny."
I asked in a cold voice, "How did you come back when you escaped from Lao Niu's mouth?" β
Zhao Jinhuan hesitated for a moment, even though he said, "I was frightened by the group of mandrills, and after I ran out of the cave, I ran up the mountain, sheltered from the rain in a temple, and thought that the rain would be less and go down the mountain." β
"I didn't expect to be hit by you as soon as I came down the mountain......"
As soon as I said the word "collision", the front of the car slammed into a rolling stone, but fortunately I braked in the right direction in time and stopped in time.
The rain was already falling heavily, and the road was so blurred outside the window that I could only see a meter away.
I said, "There's a landslide ahead, and the car can't get through." β
"Collapse?"
Qin Lan was the first to get out of the car with an umbrella, but she didn't want a gust of wind to blow, not only was the umbrella lifted out, but she also stumbled and fell backwards with a short scream.
"Be careful!"
I ran straight past the co-pilot, grabbed the door with one hand, and dragged her soft back to the car with the other.
Qin Lan didn't feel anything at first, until he glanced at the place where Fang had fallen, and then his face turned pale with fright, and his legs were weak.
Directly below, there is a 100-meter-high broken slope, and if you fall down, you will definitely die.
"Thank you...... Thank you! Qin Lan sat in the passenger seat, and his delicate body couldn't stop trembling.
There is a steep slope of several hundred meters below, and directly in front of it is the mountain tunnel of Laoniukou, but it is tightly blocked by the collapsed earth and rocks.
Just now, all the skidding of the car was crushing against the falling stones.
Lu Heming scratched his head, "What the hell can I do?" β
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the car is in danger of being hit by rolling stones at any time, but it is dark all around, and I don't know where to hide from the rain.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Jinhuan proposed, "There is a temple nearby, and I used to hide from the rain there. β
Qin Lan's lips opened lightly, and he subconsciously agreed. But suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she turned her gaze to me again.
I hesitated, even though I said, "Okay, take us there." β
For me and Lu Heming, the danger of rain and rolling stones is nothing, but Qin Lan is a mortal in the flesh and can't withstand this kind of toss.
As for Zhao Jinhuan, with me and Lu Heming here, even if he really has crooked thoughts, he can't make much waves......
In the process of moving forward, Lu Heming stood beside Zhao Jinhuan intentionally or unintentionally.
And I supported Qin Lan and walked cautiously on the mountain full of mud and rocks.
I thought that even if there was a temple in a barren mountain like this, it would only be a dilapidated temple that could only keep out the rain.
But I didn't expect that after walking for less than 20 minutes, I saw a brand-new temple with gray walls and white tiles on the mountainside.
The door of the temple is open, the courtyard is kept exceptionally clean, and there is a couplet on the door of the main house.
The upper link is: send the son to pass on the ancestry, Xie Niangniang Hongen
The following couplet writes: The wind and rain are smooth, worship Niangniang Pudu sentient beings
The horizontal batch is - auspicious from heaven
There is a deadbolt on the outside of the door, and when it is opened, it is even cleaner inside, as if someone has been cleaning it all year round.
On the north hall of the hall, there is a statue made of jasper, holding a jade bottle, wearing a light veil, some like Guanyin Bodhisattva, but some nondescript.
I am familiar with the Taoist scriptures, but I don't know which way this is an immortal.
There are also tribute fruits in front of the table, there are ever-bright candles, and after closing the door to block the wind and rain, this light rain can be particularly reassuring.
But in such barren mountains and mountains, it is impossible to have such a clean temple!
As the saying goes, there must be a demon when things go wrong, I carefully investigated around the house, not only did I not feel any evil spirit, but there was some auspicious atmosphere.
Just as I was frowning, Zhao Jinhuan walked up to me and smiled, "Professor Li, the road is difficult, you should rest well, recuperate and wait for rescue." β
I was stunned for a moment, and then I asked, "What do you call me?" β
When Zhao Jinhuan saw me before, when he showed Qin Bogu's face, now that I have recovered my original appearance, how did he recognize me?
Could it be ...... He has a knack for spying on souls!
Zhao Jinhuan's expression obviously flashed a hint of panic, but he quickly forced himself to calm down, "I'm sorry, your temperament is very similar to a friend of mine." β
After speaking, Zhao Jinchang took off his coat and went to the door to wring out the water.
Qin Lan sat on the futon and let out a sigh, but her face was a little pale, and she was still holding the half-eaten apple in her hand.
Seeing that she was still going to bite, I hurriedly grabbed it, "Don't eat it!" β
Qin Lan looked confused, "I'm so hungry and dizzy, if you want to eat, there are a lot of them on the table." β
I took a bite of the apple, and as I chewed it slowly, I felt a strange energy!
This energy is not like poison, and I can't even distinguish between good and evil, so I hurriedly spit it out and threw the apple out the window.
I said to Lu Heming, "You have to find a way to get some food." β
"Good!"
Qin Lan was puzzled, "Why can't you eat the things here?" β
"Barren mountains and mountains, heavy rain for several days and nights, but this house and courtyard are spotlessly clean, don't you think it's a little incredible?"
"I think you're a little nervous."
Qin Lan frowned slightly, "Maybe there are Taoist priests who live nearby to clean it, and the tribute fruits are all fresh......
"Believe it or not."
I didn't bother to argue with Qin Lan, even if I sat cross-legged on the ground and recuperated.
In the state of my eyes closed and concentrating, I have a very clear perception of my surroundings, and once Zhao Jinhuan has any abnormal movement, I can react at the first time.
Although Qin Lan was quite critical of my remarks, he didn't touch the food on the table after all.
Ever since Lu Heming appeared and the body I borrowed was destroyed, Qin Lan has always been a little distrustful of me, even afraid!
But after a little explanation when she gets back, she should be able to understand......
Lu Heming was vigorous and strong, and it didn't take long for him to get a bunch of wild walnuts on the mountain, which was considered to fill everyone's stomachs.
At night, Qin Yin lay on the hay futon and fell asleep soundly, and Lu Heming leaned against the door and took a nap.
I closed my eyes cross-legged, pretending to meditate, but in fact secretly observed Zhao Jinhuan's every move!
However, Zhao Jinhuan seemed to be really asleep, and after a while, a slight snoring sounded sound......
In the second half of the night, the wind and rain stopped, and a bright moon was in the sky, and I gradually felt a little tired.
Just when I was a little napping, Qin Lan, who was originally asleep, sat up from the futon suddenly!
