Bai Qingqing said: "Before, the two of us crossed the old stone bridge at the back, continued to walk deeper, and came to a forbidden place in the village, and there were people guarding it and not letting it in. ”

Then Mo Shaozhi said leisurely: "What can make the people in the village protect wholeheartedly should be what they believe in, so I guess it should be related to that living bodhisattva." ”

Hearing him say this, Bai Qingqing became more and more geared up, and couldn't wait: "Well, that's just right, let's go to the bottom at night, and we can finally find out what the secret is inside." ”

Mo Shaozhi pressed his hand on his shoulder and said leisurely: "Don't worry, now we have to rest well, nourish our spirits, and catch ...... at night." Pretending to be a ghost! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The four of them lay on the grass next to the river, their hands under their heads, lined up.

Looking at the white clouds and birds floating in the sky, it is very leisurely.

After a while, Bai Qingqing suddenly said solemnly: "Brother Mo, let's bow down." ”

Mo Shaozhi turned his head to look at him in some surprise.

Bai lightly propped up his upper body and looked at Mo Shaozhi with a serious face: "We are brothers with different surnames." ”

Mo Shaozhi smiled slightly, turned his head and continued to look at the sky: "Brother Bai, are you still so insecure?" Afraid of us when you are an outsider? ”

Bai Qingqing looked surprised: "What, Brother Mo, aren't you happy?" ”

Mo Shaozhi turned his face slightly, looked at him indifferently, and raised his eyebrows for a while: "What, am I not a brother in Brother Bai's heart, but I have always regarded Brother Bai as a brother." ”

"......" Bai was lightly stunned and noncommittal.

The little civet cat next to him got up, patted his white and light chest, and said heroically: "That's it!" I've been treating you as a brother for a long time! Back then, there were four of us brothers, but we rode horses together and crossed the rivers and lakes together. ”

Bai Qingqing remembered the past, and he didn't know that the little civet cat and Gao Lan were women, and he was still indignant in his heart, so he glanced at her with disdain: "Don't mention the four brothers back then!" At that time, I was alone in the dark, and your hearts were like mirrors! Didn't treat me as one of their own at all! ”

The little civet cat and Mo Shaozhi couldn't help laughing.

Yi Mei smiled and said, "I think Brother Bai thinks there is still a ritual missing." Why don't you wait for tonight's affair to pass, and you can hold a bowing ceremony? ”

Bai Qingqing clasped his hands and agreed very much: "Yes, yes, yes, or Yimei's words, what I say is what I think in my heart." ”

Mo Shaozhi got up and said very solemnly to the dialogue: "Okay! After tonight, we will be brothers with different surnames. ”

"Hmm!" Shiro nodded happily.

It was getting late, and the stone village was already lit up.

The dim yellow color is very gentle, and you can imagine the situation of a family coming back from work, sitting and chatting around the lamp and candle, warm and down-to-earth.

The night is getting deeper.

Mo Shaozhi said in a low voice: "In order to prevent her from escaping, we worked in pairs and secretly chased her. Don't startle the snake just yet, if my guess is correct, they should be everything that the two of them are planning together. ”

Bai Qingqing said: "Okay, then I'll be in a group with the little civet cat, Brother Mo, you and Yimei." ”

The four of them divided into two groups and landed in two places, hiding not far from the idol and waiting for an opportunity.

The lights in the village went out one by one, and soon there was silence and darkness.

The little tanuki yawned and whispered, "Why hasn't it shown up yet?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking,

"Shhhh ”

In the moonlight, I saw a figure wearing a white gauze hat and a white dress appear near the statue. Under the miserable white moonlight, the little tanuki blinked quickly and said in surprise: "Really here?" ”

The man in white looked around vigilantly, then leaned over and put the tributes in front of the idol one by one in the food box he was carrying, and waited until they were all filled before leaving quickly.

The little tanuki hurriedly said, "She's gone!" ”

Bai Qingqing hurriedly covered her mouth.

The man in white seemed to sense the anomaly, and his steps grew faster and faster.

Seeing that it was exposed, Bai Qingqing made a few bird calls from his mouth, signaling Mo Shaozhi and them to follow.

Mo Shaozhi and Yimei chased after the white figure.

Looking at the route she took, it was indeed in the direction of the forbidden land.

When he came to the mouth of the forbidden land, he disappeared from the white shadow.

Mo Shaozhi let out a few bird calls, and after a while, Bai Qingqing and the little civet cat also hurried over.

"Sure enough, it's in the forbidden land." Bai Qingqing said and was about to prepare to go inside.

Mo Shaozhi raised his hand to stop him: "It's dark here, and we are not familiar with the terrain, so it is easy for them to escape, it is better for us to wait for dawn before acting, since we have confirmed their location now, we are not in a hurry for this meeting." ”

Bai Qingqing retracted his steps and thought for a while: "Okay, let's wait." Don't worry, I must take down the traitor in Brother Mo's family with my own hands! ”

Mo Shaozhi understood and smiled slightly.

The four of them walked back slowly, and the little civet cat held Yimei and said, "It's a little exciting to think about it, tomorrow you can know who is pretending to be a ghost." ”

Yimei saw it, so she quipped: "You little tanuki, why do girls like to take risks......"

"Don't you like it?" The tanuki asked rhetorically.

"Like! Hahaha! ”

The four of them returned to the carriage and took turns resting for a while, and finally the night passed again.

The little tanuki went to each house to buy some breakfast, and inquired about the forbidden land by the way.

A few people came back to eat and chat: "I heard that the forbidden place seems to have existed before, it is the mausoleum of the founder of Stone Village, and the villagers of Stone Village have guarded it for generations, and outsiders are not allowed to enter, and there is nothing mysterious." ”

"So that's it?" Bai Qingqing was a little disappointed after hearing this.

Mo Shaozhi ate steamed buns and said indifferently: "It is with this forbidden place to cover up my traces, if I am the living Bodhisattva, I will also choose that place as a blessing." ”

Yimei furrowed her brows and asked, "Since there are people guarding it, how do we get in?" ”

Bai Qingqing narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "It seems that there is only one entrance to that forbidden place, if you want to go in, you have to find a way to attract the attention of the guards." ”

The little tanuki disagreed, and said, "What's so difficult about this!" Brother Mo, wouldn't it be nice to get some drugs to stun him! ”

Mo Shaozhi frowned slightly, a little hesitant: "This ...... Not so good. ”

Yi Mei also said: "It's really not good, after all, we broke into someone's forbidden place and stunned him......"

The little tanuki then said, "In that case, I'll go talk to him and distract him, and you will take the opportunity to go in." ”

Bai Qingqing raised his eyebrows, and joked coldly: "That man with a dark face and an expressionless face doesn't look like someone who likes to chat with you." ”

The little tanuki said slyly and firmly: "Then it depends on my ability, you see! ”
