This temple is not very far away, more than ten meters, a few seconds of effort I rushed to the front, presented in front of me are two doors at most only thirty centimeters wide tightly closed, locked with a fish head copper lock, I don't know how many years have not been opened, the fish head copper lock looks at the style or the kind used before liberation.

The door of this temple is strange, the two doors together are only sixty centimeters, only allowing one person to pass through, if you are a little fat, it is estimated that you have to turn sideways to enter.

Not a land temple?

This thought came to me.

The land temple is used to worship the villagers, absorb people, and 10,000 people can enter and exit at will, so the door is particularly atmospheric, very spacious, even if it is the land temple in the countryside of the mountain village now, it is really unheard of like this small narrow door in front of me!

At this time, there was already the screams of those ghosts behind me, all over the mountains and fields......

I looked back, and there were shadows in the gloomy fog as far as my eyes could see, and I didn't know how many things were chasing after us, and they were about to catch up.

It's too late!

I didn't dare to hesitate any longer, took a step back, picked up the Baipi knife and slashed on the door lock, only to hear the sound of "bang", the fish head copper lock was directly cut off by me and fell to the place, and then I pushed open the wooden door, and suddenly a strong musty smell came to my nose.

I widened my eyes in disbelief, this temple ...... There is no gloomy mist, like this is some great holy place, and those gloomy mists can't get in at all!

This time it's good!

I am happy in my heart, as long as I can not be blinded by the shadows, then I am not alone with a group of blind people to fight, as long as Zhang Zhenlin, the little heavenly master, recovers his vision, maybe we can still escape!

At that moment, I took the lead in jumping into this unknown temple, which was empty and there was nothing to see, but Zhang Zhenlin and the others really recovered their sight as I expected, and we untied the rope on our waists!

The ghost screams outside swept overwhelmed, and the walking corpses that had been chasing after us finally caught up, and a large area of black pressure was blocked at the entrance of the temple, some of them were dead for a short time, and the corpses were rotting badly, and some of them had been dead for some years, and they had become dry corpses, and they were drooping with clothes soaked in corpse oil, Tang costumes, Hanfu, and robes and horse coats, in short, there were clothes of any era, and obviously the corpses of the ancestors of the Baiyangyu villagers had all crawled out of the hanging coffins. Blocked at the entrance of this temple and looked at us directly.

It's just that I don't know why, these things are blocked at the entrance of the temple but they haven't come in, as if there is something in this temple that is deterring them.

Looking at the things that were buried in the mist, my scalp began to tingle.

"Copy guys, get ready to them!"

Zhang Zhenlin couldn't see the situation in the fog, lifted the Dao robe on his body, and then directly took off a bright soft sword from his waist, presumably this should be his weapon, I have always been curious why I didn't see Zhang Zhenlin's Dao weapon, it turned out to be hidden in the waist.

Then Zhang Zhenlin stood in front of the door without saying a word, carrying a soft sword, his waist was straight, some of them had the bearing and momentum of a heavenly master, and he had the posture of a husband who couldn't open it, and he shouted when he stood at the door: "Get out of the demons!" ”

Because he is almost attached to the mist, he is very close to a walking corpse in the mist, this is a dried corpse of an old lady wearing women's clothing in the Qing Dynasty, with flowerpot shoes on her feet, her skin is black, almost directly wrapped in bones, and the eyes in the eye sockets have long been rotten, which is quite vicious and hideous.

Zhang Zhenlin was almost face to face with the old lady, but because of the gloomy reasons, he couldn't see each other face to face, and he was shouting vigorously.

I want to remind him, who knows that Zhang Zhenlin doesn't know what to think, standing at the door, even if he is standing at the door, his body movements are rich, shaking his head, and his head leaned forward again, so that his face fell into the fog, and he collided directly with the old lady, and kissed directly from mouth to mouth, Zhang Zhenlin wanted to retreat, but unfortunately it was late, the old lady opened her mouth, and a black and purple tongue stretched out directly, and licked it on Zhang Zhenlin's face!

"it!"

Zhang Zhenlin hurriedly stepped back, wiped his sleeve twice on his face: "What is licking Lao Tzu!" ”

I smiled bitterly, pointed to the door, and said, "Those things are at the door, and you poked your face out, so you were licked." ”

Zhang Zhenlin is also a violent temper, as soon as he heard me say this, he was choked with disgust, and with a loud roar, the soft sword in his hand was thrown forward.

Not to mention, although this person is funny, but this soft sword is definitely to be played, and the Tao is not to be underestimated, this soft sword flicked away, and suddenly rushed out like a spiritual snake, and the aura of the Dao Gate was surging, and the head of the old lady who licked his face was cut off with a sword!

The ghost screams outside suddenly stopped, and after killing the old lady, the walking corpses outside seemed to be frightened, and retreated like a tide.

Zhang Zhenlin wanted to wave his hand and slash, but I grabbed him, and I said to him: "It's useless, save some effort, there are too many ghosts, and you can't kill them all if you're tired!" ”

Zhang Zhenlin gave up and retreated in a huff, so I hurriedly closed the door and turned around to observe the temple.

The temple is very empty, about 200 square meters in size, but there is no shrine, only a pile of stones stacked in the middle, Wang Xiaoxiao is surrounding the pile of stones and does not know what he is studying.

This time, I wondered, there is no shrine in the temple, is it still called a temple? Even if it's a land temple in the countryside, there should be a land grandfather in it, right?!

This temple is weird!

Not to mention anything else, the fact that the walking corpses outside dare not come in is enough to prove that this temple has a secret!

I muttered to myself in my heart, who knew that Wang Xiaoxiao suddenly knelt down in front of the pile of stones at this time, his hands were spread flat on the ground, his forehead was against the ground for a long time without moving, the posture was the same as in the Buddha, and he muttered vigorously: "Great God of the Earth, thank you for saving me and my companions, I hope you can always protect us!" ”

"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing here?"

Duan Teng couldn't help but say on the side: "What kind of god of the earth, does it have anything to do with these things that don't dare to come in outside?" ”

Wang Xiaoxiao ignored him, and kept muttering to the pile of stones for a long time before he finally straightened up, and then said to us: "You all come to worship the god of the earth, it is his old man who is sheltering us, we need to be grateful, it is because of him that this temple is safe, probably this is the only safe place in the entire Baiyangyu now!" ”

The god of the earth?

I frowned, but seeing that Wang Xiaoxiao was serious, I could only go over and worship the pile of stones like Wang Xiaoxiao, and then asked her, "Can you tell me what the hell is going on?" ”

"This is the god of Situ, the god of the Miao people!"

Wang Xiaoxiao said to me: "Before I was transferred to Shanxi, I had always been in charge of the security of Miao Township in the south, so I knew more about their humanistic customs!" ”

According to what Wang Xiaoxiao told me, I finally figured out the origin of the pile of stones in front of us!

The religious beliefs of the Miao people in southern Xinjiang are different from those of other ethnic groups, they do not worship a specific god, they worship nature, and worship the most primitive totems. To put it simply, the Miao people worship some giant or strange-shaped natural objects, and they often think that those things are a spiritual embodiment, so they worship them and offer wine and meat. Among them, the natural objects that can be worshiped by the Miao people are more typical of strange rocks, caves, big trees, mountains and forests. In addition, the Miao people believe that some natural phenomena or natural objects have divinity or ghost nature, and the Miao language often does not distinguish between ghosts and gods, or the two words are used together, to put it bluntly, the Miao people think that ghosts are gods, and gods are ghosts!

As for the god of the earth in front of us, it is a kind of ghost god totem worshiped by the Miao people!

This kind of ghost god totem is called the land ghost, also called the land Bodhisattva, the land milk, the family god, the sacrifice bridge, the well, etc., the statue is made of a few stones, the Miao people believe that the stone has spirituality, can carry the spirit of the land ghost, so these stones are worshiped from generation to generation, that the land ghost is the god of the soil, holding the power of the earth, if the worship can ensure that the wind and rain in the village are smooth, and the grain is abundant.

It's just that this kind of land ghost is only worshiped by Miao people, and it is prevalent in Miao Xinjiang, and people in the interior are almost completely unaware of this ancient nature worship.

Wang Xiaoxiao also said that looking at the totem of the land ghost temple in our current situation, it should be the land milk of the Miao people's branch Qin Miao worship.

It turns out that there are many branches of this Miao people, and although each branch worships the milk of the earth, their totems are different in details!

The totems of the white and red Miao Bai are made of 36 stones, the totem of the black Miao Bai is made of 33 stones, and the totems of the short skirt and long skirt Miao Bai are made of 32 stones.

Our current totem is a total of 29 boulders, Wang Xiaoxiao said that this kind of land milk totem is very rare in the entire Miao people, in the more than 100 branches of the Miao people only one branch worships this totem, this branch is - Qin Miao!

Qin Miao is also called the long-horned Miao people, this is an activity in Guizhou Liupanshui side of the Miao branch, only about 4,000 people, so far have lived a primitive tribal life, probably one of the most mysterious ethnic groups in our country, is still quite complete preservation and continuation of an ancient, with a long horn headdress as a symbol of the unique Miao cultural tradition, its uniqueness is that women wear a large wooden comb shaped like a long horn on the top of the head, the two horns are higher than the top of the head on both sides, and the horns are wrapped around 2-4 kg of hair, That's why people call them longhorned Hmong!

How could this totem temple worshiped by the longhorned Miao people appear in Baiyangyu?

I wondered.

But as soon as I thought about it, combined with the hanging coffin burial in the valley, a bold guess gradually came to my mind......
