Chapter 36: The Headless Ghost

I was chased all over the world by those two ghosts, almost not exhausted, in extreme panic and exhaustion, I finally gritted my teeth and ran out of the forest, but at this moment, a small fire suddenly lit up under the steep slope, and a temple appeared strangely in front of my eyes, looking very terrifying......

The flames swayed very slightly, like a woman with graceful waists dancing a classical dance, but this was only the shadow of the flames, and nothing else.

It is said that the candles in this temple are suddenly lit, which means that there must be someone inside, so why can't you see a human figure?

I had doubts in my heart, and my eyes were staring at the flames, for fear that I would miss something, but my back was cold, and I was already sweating, and at the moment the night breeze was cold, and I couldn't help but shiver several times.

The strange temple and the sudden light of the candle made me feel terrified, and this panic seemed to be more powerful and unsettling than that of the two ghosts that had been following me, and I knew that this trepidation came from the unknown and mysterious......

In a trance, the flame of the candle suddenly shook violently, and then the firelight suddenly changed from the original red to green, and the temple, which could have been seen clearly, was hidden in the darkness at this moment, and the green light seemed to have turned into a lonely ghost from the moment it appeared, extremely cold, and I could feel the chill from such a distance......

At the same time, I don't know if there was really a demon or a sudden change in the weather, a strong wind suddenly blew around, and the leaves that were lying quietly on the ground were suddenly rolled up and began to fly wantonly in the sky, and even formed a large whirlpool with a diameter of three or four meters thick, which came straight towards me.

I was shocked, and was thinking about what to do, but suddenly I found that the three treasures were actually facing away from me again at this critical juncture, and were looking behind me with fierce eyes.

I endured the baptism of the wind, the scraping of the leaves, and squinted my eyes and tried to look into the darkness, but this sight, I suddenly shuddered.

I saw that the two ghosts that had been chasing me just now reappeared, and stopped a few meters away from me.

However, the difference is that this time they turned around, that is, directly facing me, although they were still shrouded in a very thick fog, and in the middle of the night like splashed ink, it was impossible to see their facial features clearly, but it still made me tremble, and I couldn't help but gasp.

I was terrified, but it was clear that there was no way back from the situation.

However, I don't know why, in such a strange situation, I inexplicably gave birth to a curiosity in my heart, and I especially wanted to see what the two ghosts who chased me here, what they looked like.

As a result, I sent the gods and walked straight towards the two white ghosts......

Until now, I don't know where I got the courage at that time, but I remember that I stopped caring about the lit flames, and regardless of the three treasures, I was almost in front of these two ghosts in a trance.

But to my surprise, they didn't react to my unusual behavior, and remained motionless, like two statues.

It didn't seem like a threat, but in reality, I could feel a very strong pressure approaching me, as if there were a pair of very resentful eyes staring at you without seeing it, or a pair of large invisible hands grabbing at you, in short, it was extremely uncomfortable.

One-step... Two steps... Three-step ...... Soon I was less than a meter away from the two ghosts.

However, I don't know if it was because it was too dark, or because the fog was so thick that I still couldn't see their appearance.

At that moment, I wanted to grab the two ghosts by the necks and violently rip off their clothes to get a good look, but fear prevailed over impulse.

I just slowly lifted my sleeves and dusted off the fog in front of me, trying to see them clearly from such a distance.

With the wave of the sleeves, the mist gradually spread out to both sides, as if peeling off a cocoon, drifting outward layer by layer, gradually revealing the inside.

At this time, I could clearly see the appearance of these two ghosts, but to my surprise, under their white cloaks, they were all black holes, and they could not see their heads at all, or rather, they had no heads in the first place!

Almost within 0.01 seconds, my pupils constricted, my teeth collided up and down involuntarily, and the pores of my whole body exploded in an instant.

I tried to scream, but I felt my throat tighten, and I only let out a whining and trembling sound.

Fear, fear, has really reached the extreme, and the feet want to move back, but it is as if they have been nailed to the ground, and they can't lift them at all.

What am I going to do? Run? Where to run?

In front of me was a temple with ghostly fire, and behind me were two headless ghosts, and my feet were so frightened that I didn't listen to my own command, and even if I wanted to run, I was powerless.

I kept saying to myself, calm down, you must be calm. I, Daoist Li, am also a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, so I won't be scared into this way by these two ghosts.

But after thinking about it again, now I am a powerless person, not even an ordinary person, if there is really something, I am afraid that I don't even have the strength to parry, no wonder I am so afraid.

Even with the Three Jewels to protect me, I still can't muster the slightest courage, but no matter what, I can't just stand here like a fool, let these two ghosts take care of it, waiting for death to come.

No, I have to flee, I can't be a lamb to the slaughter.

Thinking of this, I bit the tip of my tongue vigorously, and the pain immediately spread throughout my body, and my mind suddenly became much clearer.

Then I yelled, "Ah! He turned around and ran towards the extremely strange temple.

I glanced at the temple as I ran, and thought to myself: If you don't do it, Lao Tzu will simply hide in this temple. Although this temple is small, it must be enshrined in some god or Buddha, and it is expected that these two ghosts will not dare to come nonsense.

Thinking of this, I quickened my running speed and ran towards the temple without any scruples.

This temple is very close to us, only a few tens of meters away, almost a matter of lifting a foot, so between thoughts, Sanbao and I have come to the temple gate.

I didn't rush straight in, but stopped and watched the movement around me.

It was very quiet, the wind seemed to have stopped here, the trees and fallen leaves no longer shook and danced, and everything seemed to be calm.

I could hear the beating of my own heart, even the beating of Sambo's heart.

I swallowed the fear in my heart and took a closer look at the temple......
