10. Mysterious Black Shadow

Zhang Zhen, who was standing behind the door, waited for something to appear behind him, and was very nervous.

He had just ducked behind the door when he heard the footsteps stop too. There was silence everywhere, and for a moment Zhang Zhen mistakenly thought that there had never been footsteps. But the doubts in his heart made Zhang Zhen dare not act rashly, it would be good if someone found out, if he really encountered something unclear. That would be terrifying, and I have to give an account of my own life here.

Zhang Zhen remained motionless behind the door, holding his breath, and listened for another three or four minutes. Sure enough, there was no movement at all. It seems that he was scaring himself, but he guessed it was an auditory hallucination. Zhang Zhen hid behind the door and looked at the hollow place of the temple gate for a long time, but he couldn't see anything in the dark hall. To be on the safe side, Zhang Zhen carefully observed for a few more minutes and made sure that there was really no abnormality before he planned to come out.

But as soon as he gave birth to his feet, he suddenly felt that the toes of his feet touched something, and they were soft like human feet.

Fortunately, Zhang Zhen was more bold, and he didn't scream this time.

The thing that was touched immediately retracted, as if he also felt Zhang Zhen, but he didn't make a sound except for retracting the thing.

Like Zhang Zhen, what he encountered just now was also afraid of being discovered, so he didn't make a sound. In this way, Zhang Zhen's heart relaxed a little. I thought: Since the other party can retract, it means that it is a living creature. And I'm just as afraid of being discovered, so I guess I sneaked in like me.

But I didn't hear Zhang Lei's cat meow outside the door just now, it was just dark, could it be that this thing came in advance than me just now? Or has it been here all along?

Zhang Zhen's head spun rapidly, and he suddenly felt a hand on his right shoulder. This is definitely a human hand, and the force is very light, and there is no intention to murder him.

Zhang Zhen was startled by this sudden hand. He didn't have time to be afraid, he reacted immediately, grabbed this hand with his left hand, and his body flashed to the left. The man's hand was twisted, and then the person behind him was pulled in front of him.

Before Zhang Zhen could ask, the person whispered: "Zhang Zhen, let go, it hurts." ”

When Zhang Zhen heard Zhang Lei's voice, he quickly let go of his hand. Then he asked in a low voice, "Didn't I let you stare outside?" How did you get in? ”

"I'm not scared outside, I saw that you didn't come out for a long time, so I followed up." Zhang Lei said in a suppressed voice.

At this time, Zhang Zhen's heart was in a mess, Zhang Lei said that he saw me come in for a long time before coming in, so the thing I just encountered was not Zhang Lei. Zhang Zhen became nervous again, it seemed that there were other people in this temple besides him and Zhang Lei.

He touched Zhang Lei, who was still trembling, again, and his heart was crossed. Find something first, and then talk about it when you find it. Otherwise, if you say it now, you will definitely be able to scare Zhang Lei to death.

Zhang Zhen pulled Zhang Lei's sleeve, and then walked forward against the wall on the right side of the gate.

In this lobby, there are the lines of the Zhang family and the Li family, and the lines of the Zhang family are placed in a few large boxes on the right. The Li family's outfit is placed in the box on the left. Because Zhang Zhen is not in the lion dance team, he doesn't know the furnishings here.

Seeing that Zhang Zhen went in the wrong direction, Zhang Lei, who was behind Zhang Zhen, dragged Zhang Zhen's clothes. Then he said, "You are going the other way, and the Li family's things are on the left." ”

Zhang Lei's words were extremely low, but they could be heard clearly in the silent hall.

Listening to Zhang Lei's words, Zhang Zhen felt that he turned around and walked to the left. At this moment, I suddenly heard a little noise under the table of the idol, as if someone was coughing in his throat.

The two of them were extremely nervous right now, and the slightest sound stimulated their nerves. Hearing this voice, Zhang Zhen confirmed that there were definitely others in this hall this time, but in order not to make Zhang Lei afraid, and at the same time, in order not to startle the snake. Zhang Zhen pretended not to know that there were other people, and said in a slightly louder voice: "Don't be afraid, it may be a mouse." ”

Although Zhang Lei was very scared, the keen hearing of the martial artist was still not affected, and he naturally heard clearly. Just listening to Zhang Zhen say this, my heart is a little steady.

Zhang Zhen just wants to hurry up and do his own things, and wait for his own affairs to be done. Let's talk about how to deal with the other person in the main hall.

Zhang Zhen quickened his pace, and in a few moments, he came to the place where the Li family let him go. He didn't know which of the boxes was the one with the faucet.

He hurriedly asked Zhang Lei: "Which one?" ”

Zhang Lei was so frightened that his body trembled all the time at this time. Diyo's eyes looked around everything in the hall, not caring about Zhang Zhen's question at all.

Zhang Zhen had no choice but to open the boxes one by one. Fortunately, most of these boxes are unlocked. Zhang Zhen gently opened a few boxes, and then slowly fiddled with the contents inside, but he didn't find the faucet. Zhang Zhen knew that as long as he found the dragon head and saw the mark on the dragon head, he could leave immediately.

Zhang Lei trembled and pulled the corner of Zhang Zhen's clothes tightly with one hand, and there was a sweat on his hand.

Zhang Zhen finally touched the dragon head when he turned to the fifth box. There was a burst of joy in his heart, and for a moment he forgot where he was. Immediately pulled out the flashlight and turned it on.

The flashlight shone at the faucet, and Zhang Zhen saw it clearly. But in the dark hall, the flashlight was too strong, and everything could be seen in the dark room with a little light. The room seemed to change in an instant.

Seeing the light, Zhang Lei's fear in his heart suddenly disappeared. The sharpness of those who practice martial arts is becoming stronger and stronger. He squinted his eyes at the bottom of the confession and saw that something was hidden underneath. He put a futon under his feet, and kicked it out with a sudden force.

The things under the confession were probably startled by the sudden blow, and they suddenly drilled into other places.

Zhang Zhen, who turned on the flashlight, heard the movement and suddenly realized that he was careless. In order not to be discovered by the blind and deaf people who watched the temple, he quickly turned off the flashlight.

The hall with the flashlight turned off was pitch black again. Before Zhang Zhen and his brothers had time to adapt to the poor vision of alternating light and dark, a figure suddenly rushed out from the underground of the confession through the darkness. The black shadow burst out of the door, and then fled directly over the wall with a leap.

As the black shadow rushed out, Zhang Zhen smelled a faint fragrance. He seemed to have smelled it somewhere, and he felt familiar with the scent and relied on it. He felt like his body was enjoying the smell too much.

In the tense environment, he didn't have the heart to recall, just stood in the hall and enjoyed the pleasure brought to him by the fragrance, forgetting the black shadow that had just burst out of the door. But at this time, Zhang Lei couldn't smell anything, and dragged Zhang Zhen to hurry away. The movement just now was too loud, and although Deaf Li couldn't hear it, Blind Zhang definitely heard it.

Zhang Zhen was pulled by Zhang Lei, and immediately came back to his senses and hurriedly followed Zhang Lei out of the hall. Just as his feet were about to go out, he looked back towards the place where he had been rummaging, and glanced at the locked box piled up in the corner.

After looking back for a short time, Zhang Zhen was surprised that he could see the contents of the box, and in the box was the purple gold lamp that was used when the "Thirteen" was playing firefighting.

Zhang Zhen thought that he had seen it wrong, he dragged Zhang Lei and paused to jump out of the door. Staring at the box and looking at it again, what surprised him even more was that he could see the 360-degree angle of the purple gold lamp, and it was clear! It's like someone picking something up and spinning it in front of him.

Zhang Zhen wanted to take another look, but at this time, he heard a noise coming from the house of Zhang Blind and Li Deaf. Zhang Lei was afraid that his master would know about breaking into the mountain temple at night and clean him up, so he didn't pay attention to Zhang Zhen. used the strength he used to save Zhang Zhen on the wheat field, and pulled Zhang Zhen to jump out of the door.

Zhang Zhen, who was defenseless, was pulled like this and almost fell to the ground.

Zhang Zhen, who was staggering, was dragged to the front of the courtyard wall by Zhang Lei. Zhang Zhen looked at the high courtyard wall and came to his senses, the terrain outside the courtyard wall is high, the courtyard is dug low, the courtyard wall is low outside and high inside, there is no place to borrow strength now, the yard is too small, there is no distance to run. Listening to the sound coming from the blind man's house guarding the temple, Zhang Zhen suddenly sweated on his head in a hurry.

Zhang Zhen was stunned and anxious. Zhang Lei, who had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, took a few steps back, jumped up all of a sudden, stepped on the wall twice and climbed the high courtyard wall.

"Good guy, you're there!" Zhang Zhen watched Zhang Lei go up to the wall and couldn't help but exclaim.

Zhang Lei, who was sitting on the wall, hurriedly pulled Zhang Zhen up.

The two lads often steal chickens and dogs together, and they are never discovered. The most dangerous time was just because the owner of a family was sleepwalking in the middle of the night and almost crashed into their classmate Li Gen. However, the two brothers have been playing together since childhood, and the tacit understanding is very high. Never miss a shot.

This time they were in shock, not that they narrowly missed. It's that they are so entangled with the dark shadow they encounter. Now the temple keepers have been alarmed, and they have not had time to speak. Jumping out of the courtyard wall, he hurried in the direction of home.

When they came out just now, there was such a big movement, Zhang Blind and Li Deaf saw the appearance in the hall later, and they were definitely going to ring the bell. They had to get to the house before the bell rang, otherwise they would be suspected by the people of the village, and they would definitely have to suffer in this matter. The people in the village can give in to everything, but in front of the ghosts and gods, they dare not be fooled at all.

They knew that both of them knew the seriousness of the matter, and even if there were many difficult mysteries in their hearts, they would wait until this matter was over. They ran home as hard as they could.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Zhang Zhen heard a commotion in his yard. They listened, gasped for breath, and listened to the people talk. After listening to it for a while, Zhang Zhen judged that these people had watched an episode of the TV series and were discussing it.

When Zhang Zhen saw this situation, he quickly unbuckled his belt and walked towards the "Ice Tower" on the side of the courtyard wall of his house. Zhang Lei saw Zhang Zhen's actions, and immediately understood his thoughts, and also ran towards Zhang Zhen.

Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei just arrived at the edge of the "Ice Tower" and took off their pants. Then I heard someone coming out of the door, with a flashlight in his hand. The man recognized Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei at once. One of them was Zhang Zhen's cousin Zhang Chunhe, who looked at Zhang Zhen and said with a smile: "Zhenzhen, did you say that your grandfather's toilet is equipped with a golden toilet?" You won't even let you in? Still peeing outside like us? ”

Zhang Zhen also rolled his eyes and said: "Uncle Chunhe, isn't this just a pleasure to watch 'drunk and beat Jiang Menshen', it's uncomfortable." It's closer than the toilet! ”

Zhang Lei heard Zhang Zhen say that he "drunk and beat Jiang Menshen", and couldn't help but ask in his heart: Didn't you go to the temple with me just now? How do you still know about "drunken beating Jiang Menshen"?

Zhang Chunhe just wanted to take Zhang Datou to relieve his boredom, he couldn't go to the toilet at home with any of his nephews, and he originally felt that Zhang Datou was too stingy in this matter. But he saw that Zhang Zhen was also urinating outside, and his own grandson was not allowed to go to the toilet at home. His heart is much more balanced. Unintentionally, it was a joke.

Zhang Chunhe was going to talk about something, and suddenly realized that he was Zhang Zhen's uncle, and it was not good to continue joking because of his poor seniority, so he found a remote place to pee.

Two episodes of the TV series, and when the next episode is played, there is a long commercial in the middle. Everyone began to discuss the plot at this time, some people said that Wu Song became more and more powerful the more he drank, and some people said that Wu Song didn't know the pain when he was drunk, where would there be any drunken fist?

The voices were getting louder and louder, the arguments were getting louder and louder, and the voices of several people were exceptionally clear.

"Why isn't there a drunken fist? Wu Song's that's! ”

"Don't gossip, and drunken boxing? When you're drunk, let's practice and see if you're drunk? ”

"Look at you, I'm talking about Wu Song."

"Don't talk nonsense anymore, everything on TV is fake, if it's true, then it's cheaper for the actor who plays Ximenqing! Hahaha"

"Oh, what are you talking about? And the dolls."

“……”

The laughter came and went in the courtyard of Zhang Datou's house, so lively. Talking and laughing, suddenly the courtyard returned to calm. It turned out that the second episode started again, and everyone consciously closed their mouths and stopped talking.

At this time, Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei, who got into the house, had already turned over in their hearts, and they had too many things to tell each other after breaking through the temple gate just now. But there are so many things in their hearts that they don't know which one to say first.

It was Zhang Lei who said it first, he stared at Zhang Zhen, and his face was a little angry. said: "Honestly, when did you watch 'Drunk Beat Jiang Menshen'?" ”

As soon as Zhang Zhen heard this, he was amused by Zhang Lei. He thought that Zhang Lei was going to talk about what happened in the temple just now, but he didn't expect him to come to such a sentence. Zhang Zhen met Zhang Chunhe just now to create the illusion that they were watching TV just now, and he was lying to Zhang Chunhe. This elm head actually believed it! It's really stupid!

Zhang Zhen cried and laughed and said, "You are really a good mallet, I lied to my uncle Chunhe just now." Besides, when will I be able to watch 'Drunk and Beat Jiang Menshen'. ”

When Zhang Lei heard Zhang Zhen say this, he immediately understood in his heart. But he still regrets that he missed the highlight of "Drunken Beat Jiang Menshen" just now.

Zhang Zhen looked at Zhang Lei, who had a childish face, and muttered "drunk beating Jiang Menshen". Suddenly, Zhang Zhen's mind came up with a TV series of "Wu Song drunk and beating Jiang Menshen". Zhang Zhen was a little puzzled, he really didn't watch it just now, and he hadn't seen it before. I haven't even read the novel of "Water Margin" myself. But the plot that comes to mind now is too real. Even Wu Song's drinking movements, he could see the beard on Jiang Menshen's face clearly.

What's going on? Could it be that the plot discussed by the people in the courtyard just now was sorted out by the brain?

Zhang Zhen really couldn't figure it out, he opened his mouth and was just about to tell Zhang Lei about it.

Suddenly, there was an ethereal chime in the silent night sky. One tight and one slow, one tight and one slow, knocked three times in a row.

Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei, who were about to speak, looked at each other, they knew what was going on!
