Chapter 161: Searching for the Body
Li Changsheng and Jia Ye walked out of the shop, and according to what the land said, they walked towards the dense forest in the southeast direction.
The night was getting colder, and the barren mountains seemed to be filled with thick fog for no reason.
A faint fragrance, I don't know where it emanated, filled the air around me.
Along the way, Jia Ye seemed very cautious, looking left and right.
Li Changsheng walked forward and said, "Don't worry...... Follow me...... If something happens, I'll keep you safe. ”
After hearing this, Jia Ye sighed and said: "Little brother, it's not that I don't believe you, but looking at your young age and the appearance of not long learning the Tao, you must have never been to this barren mountain before, there are many ghosts in this barren mountain, and you need to be more careful when walking at night." ”
Li Changsheng smiled faintly and said, "Master Jia...... Don't look at my learning the Tao for a short time, this technique is very slippery to use. ”
Seeing Li Changsheng's appearance of not worrying at all, Jia Ye couldn't tell whether he should be cheerful or pessimistic.
The two of them walked for about half an hour, and at this moment, about ten o'clock in the evening, they saw a ruined temple, as the land said.
Although the two are not far apart, looking at the temple, it seems to be hidden in the fog, faint and hazy.
Jia Ye's heart trembled, and he hurriedly stopped, grabbed Li Changsheng in front of him, and said, "Daoist Li...... Be careful. ”
Li Changsheng nodded, and also looked at the temple carefully.
The temple looks very old, very old, and some of the walls outside are dilapidated, which looks very bad.
"This is the temple of the Mori woman?" Li Changsheng had some doubts.
Jia Ye nodded and said, "It shouldn't be wrong...... This forest lady Niangniang, originally in the barren mountains, there are still a lot of worshippers, at that time the incense in the temple was not bad, now ...... Nowadays, people don't pay much attention to it, and as time goes by, there are fewer and fewer people who come to worship in the temple, and the temple is barren and dilapidated, and no one cares about it. ”
"No wonder ......" Li Changsheng showed a smile.
"What do you mean?" Jia Ye was stunned.
Li Changsheng glanced at him and said, "Have you ever heard of the 'Power of Faith'?" ”
"The power of faith?" Jia Ye frowned and said, "What is it?" ”
Li Changsheng smiled slightly, and said: "There are many cultivation methods in the world, among them, this 'power of faith' is one of the cultivation, generally speaking, whether it is a god or a demon, if you build a temple for yourself, the more people come to kneel and pray, the more prosperous the incense of the temple, the more devout believers, and in the dark, a power of faith will be condensed, and this power can be used by the owner of the temple." ”
Jia Ye scratched his head, as if he understood, but as if he didn't understand too much.
Li Changsheng smiled coldly and said: "To put it bluntly, this Sen Po Niangniang was originally worshiped by the people in the village in the barren mountains, and the power of pious faith brought her a lot of power, which could promote her cultivation and Taoism, but as the number of people of faith gradually decreased, the power of faith became more and more impure, and the effect it could bring to her was less...... Now...... She's also reduced to the business of stealing corpses. ”
Jia Ye seemed to suddenly realize, and said, "Is this what you are talking about the same as the disciples of the Famen?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes......" Li Changsheng smiled and said: "That's pretty much what it means, the more devout believers there are, the purer the power of faith can provide, and the Famen attaches great importance to this item, which is why the Famen preaches far-reaching." ”
Jia Ye nodded, looked at the temple carefully, and said, "You said that the Sen Po Niangniang is not in the temple now?" ”
"How do I know? Wouldn't it be clear if you went in and had a look? Li Changsheng said, and walked towards the temple.
"Eh......" Jia Ye just wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it, so he had to follow Li Changsheng closely.
Approaching the temple, Li Changsheng immediately felt that there was a force seeping out of the temple, this power was not pure, as if it was mixed with many things, it was very chaotic.
Li Changsheng smiled slightly and said, "It's really ten years in Hedong and ten years in Hexi...... If the power of faith is not pure, the Buddha will become a demon. ”
As the two spoke, they stepped into the temple.
When I entered the temple, I was taken aback.
Sure enough, only a corpse was seen, standing upright on both sides of the temple house, and in the middle of the temple was a statue of a stone man.
The idol was also old and dusty, and the spiders had webs on it.
When Li Changsheng saw the corpse, he simply smiled, and then when he saw the idol, he was stunned again.
This statue is carved with a middle-aged woman, and there is nothing strange about it, but there is a faint evil aura, but it seems to be leaking out of the statue.
"One, two, three, four...... Thirteen, fourteen......" Jia Ye counted the corpses in the temple, and after counting, he couldn't help but show a smile on his face, and said, "Daochang Li, the corpses are all here...... Your forty-nine corpses, and my five, one is not less. ”
"Hurry up...... Get rid of ......," Li Changsheng hurriedly spoke.
"Okay, okay." Jia Ye began to cast a spell, only to see him pick up the spell, his feet kept stomping on the ground, "pop...... Snap ......", chanting the incantation.
The corpses in the temple suddenly jumped, as if they had received orders.
Li Changsheng smiled slightly, took out the guiding bell, and shook it gently.
Bell ...... Bell......
The bell rang and the dark silence was broken all at once.
The melodious and melodious ringtone, as if in an instant, can be transmitted far and wide.
At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew in from outside the temple.
The sound of "woo woo" came out, as if someone was sobbing in the dark night.
"You ...... What a bold ...... Dare to come to my temple and steal the corpse......"
A cold voice, sounding out of thin air, was a woman's voice, and the sound of the bell was muffled at once.
The staggering corpses stopped in an instant.
When Jia Ye heard this voice, his face suddenly changed, and the whole person was stunned, although it was cold in the mountains and forests at night, cold sweat began to break out on his forehead.
Li Changsheng didn't care at all, showed a smile, "Haha" laughed, and said; "Mori Lady Niang...... You see what you say...... These corpses were obviously stolen from us by you, and we came to retrieve them...... Why did we steal it? Looks like you're ...... Unreasonable...... Unreasonable. ”
In the darkness, the woman snorted coldly and said, "Okay, you Li Changsheng...... I don't know whether I am alive or dead, and I have entered the barren mountains, and I really think that this is your world? ”
"What's up? Defy? You come out......" Li Changsheng said sharply, the smile on his face suddenly retracted, and his sharp gaze looked at the dilapidated statue in the temple.
