I shifted my gaze to the small temple they were staring at.

The little temple was very small, with only one lonely temple. It looks very shabby, and it looks like it could collapse at any time. But although the temple is not large, it looks daunting.

It seemed that there should be someone in the temple, and the three people standing did not dare to make a mistake at all, and stood there respectfully.

I looked at Lao Xiao, who nodded slightly at me. Obviously, this small temple is what he called the mother-in-law temple. Listening to what he said, he even compared the Nantianmen of the Heavenly Palace, but he didn't expect it to be such an inconspicuous small temple.

But looking at what Lao Xiao meant, he shouldn't know what those two people were doing when they were standing there, we could only wait and see what happened, and wait to see what happened.

At this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and the remnant sun on the horizon had completely set. Only a hint of afterglow is revealed, so that our vision is not completely affected.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound from the direction of the small temple.

We lifted our spirits and hurried to look over to the small temple. I saw that the originally closed temple door was half opened, and a thin and withered arm stretched out, the arm was slender, as if it was a few points longer than an ordinary person's arm, and there was almost no extra meat on it, that is, skin and bones.

The arm hung a lit lantern above the temple gate, and the dim candlelight in the lantern reflected the front of the small temple miserably.

As soon as the lantern was hung, the thin arm was pulled back again, and the temple door slammed shut again.

The three people standing in front of the temple finally moved, they bowed to the temple door, and shouted: "The goddess is mighty, and the light is shining, please ask the mother to enter the mountain......

The shouts of the three people were full of anger, and the shouts shook all directions. It seems that they are shouting to the people in the temple and want to enter the mountain. But there was no reaction from the door.

After a few minutes, the three of them shouted again. There was still no movement inside.

They tirelessly shouted for the third time, and finally the temple door slammed and opened half of the door.

A glossy old woman with unkempt silver hair and a rickety figure, on crutches, slowly walked out of it.

Judging from the emaciated figure of the old woman, the one who just hung the lantern should be her, the person who was called the soil mother-in-law by those two people.

Granny Tu came out of the temple, pointed the way in front of her with her crutches, shook three steps at a time, and staggered towards the three people who were about to enter the mountain.

I looked at Granny Tu's walking posture, as if there was something wrong with her eyes. When she walked up to the three people and turned around, I saw a white light flashing in her eyes, and I couldn't see a single black eyeball, she should be blind.

The mother Tu circled around the three people twice, and did not see any special movements, so she waved the cane in her hand.

As if they had been granted amnesty, the three men hurriedly bowed to the mother-in-law, crossed the mother-in-law's temple, and walked in the direction behind the temple.

Granny Tu herself was on crutches and returned to her temple. The temple door slammed and closed again.

The surroundings fell silent again, only hanging above the temple gate

The lanterns shine brightly.

Fortunately, it is relatively empty here, and the moonlight in the sky pours down unobstructed, illuminating the front of the temple gate quite brightly.

We squatted in the grass, and Lao Xiao lowered his voice and said, "See? If you want to enter the mountain and go to the goddess village, this is the only way. Therefore, this mother-in-law temple shoulders the role of verifying the body. It is not the goddess village or the people invited by the goddess village, once you cross the mother-in-law temple, you can be found immediately, not to mention people, even animals, it is difficult to overcome. ”

Coincidentally, before Lao Xiao's words fell, a gray hare sprang out of the grass next to us. The rabbit was fat and strong, and moved very quickly, and after scurrying out of the grass, it ran into the mountains behind the temple of the mother-in-law.

All three of us were attracted by this sudden event and stared closely at the figure of the hare.

The hare crossed the temple of the mother-in-law, and was just about to run into the mountains, when he saw its body tremble suddenly, and suddenly fell to the ground, its limbs twitched, and after a while it could not move.

Several of us looked at each other in shock.

It seems that the blind mother-in-law looks weak, but there are indeed some means to be able to guard the mother-in-law's temple. Looking at those three strong men, they are also respectful and sincere to the mother-in-law, which is not unreasonable.

Lao Xiao said in a low voice: "Let's go to the goddess village, I'm afraid we won't be able to hide without an identity." We also have to hurry up and go into the mountain and try to catch the three people who are in the advanced mountain. Then we will act in the village of goddesses instead of their identities and in the village of goddesses. ”

We all think that Lao Xiao's strategy is reliable, but how to pass the pass of the soil mother-in-law has become the biggest problem.

The third uncle asked Lao Xiao: "Didn't you say that there is a way to get in?" ”

Lao Xiao nodded, took off the backpack on his body, found three sets of clothes from it, and urged: "Let's each wear one set of these clothes." If it goes well, it should be able to hide it from the eyes of the soil mother-in-law. ”

I smiled wryly: "Nonsense, didn't you see it?" That mother-in-law is blind, she certainly doesn't judge by her eyes, it's useless to hide from her eyes. ”

Lao Xiao waved his hand: "That's what I said." I mean, wearing this dress, you should be able to hide it from the mother-in-law. She's blind, and that's even better. At least she can't see that we're impostors. ”

Wearing this clothes, you can blend into the goddess village?

The third uncle and I involuntarily picked up the clothes that Lao Xiao gave us and looked at them.

I held the dress in my hand, and the first thing I felt was that it was very light.

I didn't try too hard, and the clothes were blown up by the wind.

Lao Xiao hurriedly reminded us: "Hold your clothes tightly, don't blow them away." I managed to save up these three outfits. ”

I grabbed the garment and looked closely, and it was whitish in color and thin in material. It's an exaggeration to say it's as thin as a cicada's wing, but it's supposed to be something special, thinner than anything I've ever worn. It is said that it is a dress, but in fact, it has been simply cut, with sleeves and placket, and the pants are only sewn out of two trouser legs, and the handwork is extremely rough.

I touched the material and felt a little familiar to the touch. I recalled

, asked Lao Xiao: "Uncle Xiao, this dress...... Could it be that the things in the cave are made of it? ”

I remember that when I fell into the cellar of the freight yard, I happened to fall on top of a pile of soft things, so I didn't get hurt. Those things feel similar to these clothes. That's why I'm asking.
