Chapter 43: The Mysterious Temple
"Haha, I didn't expect the old man to hide so hidden, and he was still discovered by you."
As soon as the fat man finished speaking, an old man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks came out from behind the pine tree.
The old man was dressed in yellow linen clothes, and Li Ergou was no stranger to him at all, and could even be said to be a little familiar.
"It's you, why are you here?"
As soon as the old man appeared, Li Ergou pointed at him and said in surprise.
When I met at the Love Sea Shopping Plaza last night, this old man was still dressed as an old man from the countryside, but now he looks like a hermit living in the mountains and forests.
"Little brother, I said that we will meet again."
The old man in Mai smiled at Li Ergou, and as he spoke, he walked towards Li Ergou and them.
Li Ergou has a big head for a while, don't be this old man in sackcloth with a kind face, he is an authentic weasel spirit.
The fat man also said that if he couldn't get a satisfactory answer from Li Ergou, he wouldn't leave easily.
It's just that what makes Li Ergou wonder is, why did the old man who set up the stall appear here?
Could it be that this is his lair?
The weasel spirit is very cunning, but seeing the fat man's confident appearance, Li Ergou is also a lot more relieved.
In Li Ergou's opinion, the fat guy often plays cards out of common sense, and he is the descendant of the Heavenly Master's Dao, and the Tao is profound, and this weasel spirit may not be able to take advantage of him.
"Little doll, are you doing well, you can actually sense my existence, I don't know who you are learning from?" The old man in Mai asked the fat man with a smile.
"Hmph, it's just a small skill of carving insects, in front of my Heavenly Master, it's not worth mentioning at all." The fat man snorted coldly and said arrogantly.
When the old man in Mai heard this, he was in awe, bowed his waist and said, "I never thought that Mr. was actually a descendant of the Heavenly Master's Dao, it was really disrespectful and disrespectful!" ”
Li Ergou was dumbfounded, how powerful this fat man's master is, even the weasel spirit in the deep mountains has to be in awe when he hears it.
"Tell me, what is your purpose in following us? Also, did you go to Ami's house and ask her not to bury her father first? The fat man didn't show much closeness, and asked with a calm face.
Hearing this, the old man in Mai's face suddenly changed, and then said, "How do you know this?" ”
"Hmph, you don't look at how many catties and taels you have, you dare to get an axe in front of our Heavenly Master Dao?" The fat man sneered.
Li Ergou stood aside, unable to calm down for a long time.
He didn't expect that the mysterious old man who pretended to be a master to Ami's house turned out to be this weasel spirit.
"I'm a grave keeper, and I can't help myself in many things, and I hope that the little heavenly master will learn from me." The weasel spirit sighed and said.
The fat man frowned after hearing this, and even Li Ergou found out that something was wrong, and the words of this weasel spirit revealed a lot of information.
According to Li Ergou's conjecture, the weasel spirit in front of him must have lived for decades or even hundreds of years.
Otherwise, he would not disguise himself as a human and go to Yangcheng to find someone destined to seek immortals.
However, even with his cultivation, he can only be reduced to a gatekeeper, the same nature as the family members of the human world in ancient times.
So how great should the weasel spirit behind him, or Wong Tai Sin, be?
At this time, Li Ergou suddenly remembered a rumor he had heard from the old people in the village when he was a child.
Sixty years ago, there was a severe natural disaster in the Yangcheng area, first a major drought, then a major flood, and that year, the crops in the fields were completely destroyed and there was no harvest.
In order to survive, many people have eaten tree bark and grass roots, and struggled to survive.
When winter comes, many people have set their sights on the mountains and forests, and have gone to the mountains to catch the yellow skin.
In the beginning, the villagers not only had meat to eat, but also could take the yellow skins to the market to sell.
After changing the money, I bought food and added a few new clothes to my family.
But later, after the disaster passed, the villagers did not stop hunting and killing Huang Pizi, breaking the balance between the two, and thus angering Wong Tai Sin in the mountains.
In a fit of rage, Wong Tai Sin sent countless armies of yellow skins, not only biting off the rhizomes of the crops in the field, but also rebelling in the village.
It is said that Wolong Village was sent at that time, and the patriarch of the Liu family entered the mountain to negotiate, and the two sides stopped fighting.
Because of their ancestors, the patriarchs of the Liu family all know feng shui and know some spells, which can be seen from the grandfather.
If Ami's father died tragically, Wong Tai Sin was behind the trouble, then the matter would be a big deal.
"Since you claim to be a grave keeper, can you take us inside?" Li Ergou asked.
After all, Ami's father was also retributed because he entered the cave and took away the ghost jade and the jar of silver from the tomb.
What's more, the fat man said that the things in the mountains are likely to be related to the underground labyrinth of Fengyuan Building.
If the old man in Mai could take them to the tomb, it would be the best.
Actually, Li Ergou felt that the fat man should know the location of the tomb, and the reason why he pretended not to find it was just to set a set of words from the old man in sackcloth.
Seeing Li Ergou asking, the old man in Mai glanced at Li Ergou, and his eyes said with a wave of greed: "Little brother, we are destined, as long as you answer me a question, I will take you there." ”
"Is it the same question as last night?" Li Ergou hesitated and asked.
"Yes, do you think I look like a human or a fairy?" The old man in Mai nodded and said, and after speaking, he looked at Li Ergou expectantly.
The fat man once said that the yellow skin looked for someone destined to ask for immortals, and if he didn't get the answer he wanted, he wouldn't give up.
This time Li Ergou learned to be smart, he thought about it, and said, "I think you look like a fairy." ”
Instead of being entangled by this weasel spirit and constantly in trouble, it is better to be happy and give him the answer he wants.
What's more, doing so is not harmful to Li Ergou at all.
"Little brother is really refreshing!" The old man in Mai said excitedly.
His eyes were squinted together, and he looked more like a weasel.
"Can you show us the way now?" Li Ergou asked.
The old man in Mai no longer hesitated this time, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you there." ”
With that, he turned around and walked towards a side path.
Li Ergou glanced at the fat man, and after seeing that the fat man gave him a reassuring look, he followed.
In other aspects, Li Ergou didn't dare to say, but to deal with these monsters who had become spirits, Li Ergou believed that the fat man would definitely be able to deal with a group of them alone.
Seriously, if it weren't for his father's disappearance, Li Ergou would really be reluctant to deal with these yellow skins, the reason is that these weasel spirits are very cunning and extremely vicious.
If it weren't for the fat man by his side, he helped the old man in Mai seal the immortal just now, and Li Ergou wouldn't dare to let him lead the way.
Li Ergou and the others followed the old man in Mai, turning around, and after passing through a jungle, they finally saw a temple in a smoky mountain pass.
From a distance, the temple looked like it was made of bronze, and the doors were covered with dust and cobwebs, which was very mysterious.
"That's the tomb you're looking for."
After seeing the mysterious temple, the old man in Mai stopped and pointed and said.
