Chapter Twenty-Five: The Temple on the Other Side of the Reservoir
"Stand back, or I'll kill you." Jiang Han waved the pig-killing knife in his hand and roared.
If these two ghosts are going to be against themselves, then they can only get rid of them in order to protect themselves.
The two ghosts roared wildly, "That woman's child, why are you looking for that woman's child, you must be with that woman, I'm going to kill you." The two paper figures suddenly spoke, and a deep resentment could not be heard between their words.
Jiang Han was puzzled in his heart, but he had no time to care about what that woman had done to make these two powerful ghosts resent her so much.
"Stop, or die." Just as Jiang Han decided to give it a go, a cold voice came from outside the door.
As soon as they heard this voice, the two paper figures who had already rushed in front of Jiang Han suddenly paused, not daring to take another half step forward.
It was Yun Xi, since the beginning, Yun Xi had been guarding the door, but she also felt the anger of the two paper figures in the house, so she came in to relieve Jiang Han.
Jiang Han also looked over with the voice, and smiled slightly, "Yunxi, it's good that you appeared in time, otherwise I would have swung my knife and chopped these two paper figures into pieces, you know, I didn't want to hurt the ghosts." ”
Jiang Han's words were not to find a step down for his predicament, although the two powerful ghosts were furious just now, but if Jiang Han really wanted to make a move, these two paper figures were definitely not Jiang Han's opponents.
Yun Xi was as cold as ever, it seemed that she was not interested in what Jiang Han said.
Jiang Han, who was accustomed to it, could only smile awkwardly, and then turned his gaze to the two paper figures again, his tone became cold, and said, "I have no malice, if you want to attack me again, I don't mind overtaking you." ”
The two paper figures didn't move, as if they had lost their souls.
They were angry, but they felt the powerful aura emanating from Yun Xi's body, so they didn't dare to act rashly.
After a few moments, the paper man who had had his hand cut off finally spoke, "You, you're actually helping a human." ”
Obviously, this sentence is for Yun Xi.
Yun Xi, as a ghost, helped a human being, which made these two paper men very puzzling.
Yun Xi only glanced at the paper man arrogantly, and did not make any response.
"Who are you, and what means have you used to make a terrible ghost willing to use it for you." The hollow eyes of the paper man with the broken arm looked at Jiang Han again, but he could clearly feel that the former was a little more afraid of the latter.
"Ghosts." Jiang Han calmly replied.
"Ghosts! You're a ghost. The two paper figures exclaimed almost at the same time.
Although the two paper figures are made of paper paste, their demeanor can change like people, and from the slightly stiff faces of the two paper figures, Jiang Han can see a little jealousy, and there is a strong sense of anger.
"Why, you know about ghosts?" Jiang Han said.
The paper man with the broken arm did not give a positive response to Jiang Han's question, it walked to the side of the paper man who was cut off by the waist, the two whispered, and the paper man with the broken arm also glanced back at Jiang Han from time to time.
This made Jiang Han faintly feel that there was some conspiracy between the two insidious paper figures.
"Hehe, if I had known that you were a ghost, the two of us would not have done anything to you, you said before that you were looking for a little girl, I know where she is, I can take you to meet her." The paper man with the broken arm suddenly turned around and said with a smile, but the smile, under the strong light, looked particularly hideous.
"Oh, well, where is the little girl?" Jiang Han was a little puzzled in his heart, why did these two paper figures change their attitudes so much after hearing that they were ghosts and witches.
"That little girl is in the temple on the hill across the reservoir, and I can show you the way." The paper man with the broken arm pointed out the window with his only remaining hand, and said.
Jiang Han looked along the paper man's arm, and through the dilapidated wooden window, he did see that there was a temple on top of a mountain peak not far away.
There is a faint yellow candle light in the temple, which stands out in the dark night.
"It seems that there are really people in that temple." Jiang Han muttered to himself.
"Lead the way." Jiang Han stopped talking nonsense.
The paper man with a broken arm was the first to walk out of the broken house, Jiang Han followed, and seeing that the paper man with a broken arm no longer dared to be unfavorable to Jiang Han, Yun Xi also returned to Jiang Han's backpack.
In the dark night, two figures walked from the village to the reservoir, and the paper figure walked in front, and from time to time he would look back at Jiang Han who was following him.
Jiang Han turned on the flashlight and kept watch out for this paper man.
Until the two walked to the side of the reservoir, the branches on the side of the road were hung with strips of cloth with white flowers, which blew with the night wind, making Jiang Han also worried.
"Who hung these strips of cloth?" Jiang Han pointed to the strip of white cloth on the tree and asked.
"It's the little girl you're looking for." Paper humane.
"Little girl? How could she hang this tree so tall? Jiang Han was very puzzled.
"To be exact, the ghost around the little girl hung up." The paper man said, a little fear in his eyes.
"What, there's a ghost around her? Didn't she know that there were ghosts in this world? Jiang Han's eyes kicked and he said in surprise.
"Well, not only that, but she also knows about our existence, so to speak, she has lived with ghosts since she was a child." Paper humane.
This made Jiang Han frightened.
The paper man pointed to a small wooden boat on the edge of the reservoir and said, "You can take that wooden boat to the other side, this is the only way to get to the other side." ”
Jiang Han used a flashlight to shine a flashlight on the reservoir This reservoir is very large, and in other places, there is no way to the other side at all, it seems that this small boat is really the only way.
"Does this paper figure really want to help me? How do I feel that it is pregnant with a ghost and wants to harm me? ”
I feel it, but it's just a feeling.
After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Han still decided to cross the water by boat and reach the opposite shore as the paper man said.
The boat has run aground on the tidal flats of the reservoir and looks like it has been abandoned for many years.
Jiang Han banged on the wooden boat, and the planks of the wooden boat made a dull knocking sound, it seems that this small boat is made of solid wood, although it has been abandoned for many years, but there is no damage.
After confirming that the wooden boat could still be used, Jiang Han wasted the power of the nine tigers and two oxens and dragged the wooden boat into the water.
Boarding the small wooden boat, Jiang Han turned around and warned with a serious face: "You'd better not lie to me, otherwise, I will let you taste my methods." ”
Hearing this, the paper man's face changed and became solemn, but Jiang Han didn't notice it.
Jiang Han paddled the oars, the wooden boat moved slowly on the water surface of the wide reservoir, the oars paddled in the water, and the sound of the waves stirred up was particularly obvious in this deathly silent night.
