After listening to the old man's words, I said, "So, you contacted the Yin-Yang Association and made this place a competition venue, in the hope that we can help you find your grandson?" So why did the organizers ask us to look for wooden signs? ”

"I do hope that you can help me find my grandson, but how to do it is up to your Yin Yang Association to decide, I just want to provide you with a little convenience and clues, as for whether you can complete the task, after you complete the task, whether I can find my grandson or not, I have to resign myself to fate."

Convenience refers to the use of food, and the clue is probably the candles, and without those candles, I wouldn't be able to find it.

"So, do you know any of the more peculiar wooden plaques here?" Miao Banxian asked unrelentingly.

The old man said: "I have told you everything I know, as for what wooden sign, I really don't know, you can find it yourself." ”

In this way, Miao Banxian and I were not polite, and looked around this side hall, but after seeing no wooden signs, we retreated.

"What do we do next?" Miao Banxian asked me, he didn't even realize it himself, he is now almost always following my footsteps and treating me as his head.

Instead of answering his question, I was thinking about something else.

The black qi on the old man's body was very strong, so thick that I could barely see his face clearly, but unfortunately, I never met him, so I couldn't be sure whether his black qi was caused by the depression in his heart after staying here for more than fifty years, or ......

"Hey, Banlan?" Seeing that I hadn't moved for a long time, Miao Banxian poked my arm, "What are you thinking?" ”

"It's nothing, let's walk around again."

Since even Liao Junming, a ghost cultivator, can't see the black qi like me, you can know that my golden finger is not ordinary, so it's better not to tell others easily.

There are a few courtyards next to the side hall, and we also found a few acres of fields in the back, but the grass is full of wild grass, and the yin qi in the main hall is limited, but the yin qi here is extremely strong, so these people are tall and weeds give people a feeling that they are not easy to mess with.

"The wooden sign will not be in these grasses, let's look elsewhere, I have a hunch that if we break into this wild grass forest, something big will happen."

I listened to Miao Banxian's admonition and turned around to leave with him, but I paused abruptly and turned back again.

Leaving the main hall, the yin qi of the entire Qingtan Temple is indeed heavy, but the heaviest thing is this field, even the weeds grow like this, why?

When a thought came to my mind, I couldn't suppress it, and without much hesitation, I rushed to the fields where the weeds had grown.

"Hey, what's crazy about you?" Seeing this, Miao Banxian hurriedly grabbed me, "This place is very wrong, I broke in rashly, I am afraid that I will ......" He paused, probably seeing that I was very firm, he turned to say, "If you must go in, you have to make some preparations." ”

He did have some truth in what he said, and hurriedly took out a few small bags containing talisman paper and hung them on his body, which were basically spells that triggered sexual attacks or protection, which were all drawn by Qiu Shishi, and the power was a hundred times greater than mine, even if something happened, it should be able to keep me safe temporarily.

Miao Banxian also put a magic weapon on himself, and then walked with me into the wild grass forest that was taller than us.

"Don't say it's weird that this grass grows like this."

"Yes, then tell me, what kind of nourishment will make the grass grow like this?"

Miao Banxian was stunned, and then he also became enlightened: "You mean, those monks are buried here?" But if it's so simple, why can't the old man who guards the temple find it after fifty years? ”

"Maybe he couldn't find it, but he ......," my eyes were shining, with anger in my eyes, "He knew that the bodies were buried there, but he couldn't touch them, and he didn't dare touch them." ”

"This ...... Did he lie? ”

"Have you forgotten the tips we gave the organizers before the competition? Don't trust anyone, I have to be wary of all of you fellow players, let alone the old man who doesn't know him at all. "I stared at the weeds in front of me, and as soon as I entered, I could barely see the weeds on the road in front of me, trying to search for the place where the black gas was the thickest," I suspect that the villain who killed more than a dozen monks in Qingtan Temple in his mouth is himself! ”

"What?" Miao Banxian exclaimed, "Really?

I confessed, "I'm not sure, I'm guessing." ”

He suddenly looked like he was defeated by me, and then said, "If he was a villain back then, why did he stay here for fifty years?" Now that he has taken the initiative to contact the Yin and Yang Association, he is not afraid of ......"

"What are you afraid of, don't you see it, he is dying at the end of his life, is he still afraid of being arrested and sentenced in prison? It's better to take this opportunity to get rid of your obsessions. ”

"Obsession?"

"Naturally, the legendary treasure." I finally found a black line formed by black gas, and followed the black line through the dense weeds, and finally stopped on a piece of ground.

The grass on the ground is the greenest and thickest of the wild grasses, thinking of the giant grass I once saw in the mountain of bones, maybe in a few more years, these grasses will develop towards that giant grass and form a real demonic thing.

I squatted down and reached out a little to touch the rhizome: "He did not hesitate to kill all the monks in the Qingtan Temple back then, not just for the so-called treasure, who knows that after the death of the person, the Qingtan Temple has become like this, I am afraid that he still can't walk freely in the main hall, you didn't find that when he sent us supplies, he only stood outside the main hall and did not step in." ”

As soon as I grasped the rhizome, I pulled it out with the force of my hand.

I vaguely heard the cry of a baby, the protective charm I had prepared lit up, blocking the magic sound from penetrating the brain, and I took the opportunity to pull up the grass completely, and when I pulled out the second one, the leaves of the grass moved by itself and fanned at me, Miao Banxian stepped forward and split it with a scimitar.

While fighting with the third and fourth grasses, he asked me, "I still don't understand, if he is really a villain, how can the unjust souls of those monks let him go?" ”

"Ghosts are afraid of the wicked, this is the basics, have you forgotten? More than a dozen monks were tortured and imprisoned by him in every way before they died, and then they were killed by him, turned into powerful ghosts and were trapped by this layer of karma, but they couldn't help the villains, of course, he couldn't deal with them, and the two parties had to confront each other, until today, a full fifty years. ”

I grabbed the rhizome that had been cut off by Miao Banxian, removed the leaves, and left the stem as hard as a stick, and used it to dig the soil.

It took a long time to dig it up, but where is this enough, after Miao Banxian solved a lot of mutant grass, he also picked up the stem and came over to help me dig together, and both dug for a long time, and finally touched something, swept away the soil and stones, and found that it was really white bones.

We were a lot more careful, trying not to damage the bones, and the first thing I dug out was a skull, and now I was not so scared, I carefully put the head aside, and then dug down.

I don't know how long it took, but beside us, there were a lot of white bones on the ground covered with blades of grass, but none of them were intact.

Miao Banxian acted as a servant, and after a few inspections, he said with a heavy face: "Many bones are not buried in the ground and naturally decayed, but were broken before death, some people have broken hands and some have broken feet, and even many bones in the chest cavity are not complete, and I also found that the fingers on one of the hand bones were all broken one by one." ”

This is only from the bones can be observed, there must be injuries that cannot be seen from the bones, it can be seen that these skeletons before death, how much torture they endured, when the old man spoke, said a sentence that the villains tortured the monks to ask the whereabouts of the treasure, now that I think about it, the words "torture" are a little light.

"If there are really people, treating them like this is almost equivalent to imprinting their souls, and they will not be liberated after death, because no matter how much they hate, they will not be able to avenge their murderer." Miao Banxian's voice was cold.

It is equivalent to a person who locks you in a dark place, so that the heavens should not call the earth spiritual, beat you and abuse you every day, no matter how much you hate in your heart, you can't have the power to fight back, even if someone is forced to the end to break out and take revenge, but fear has been deeply imprinted in your heart, and the shadow will linger for a lifetime.

As he spoke, a lot of bones were dug up.

I looked at this pile of human bones, bits and pieces, and suddenly blessed my soul, I understood what the so-called wooden plaque was.

I walked out of the weeds, went to the side of the woods to look for a larger wood or plank, and when I couldn't find it, I went to the tree to cut it, but fortunately I could barely act as a strong man now, and cut down a pile of wood, more than ten centimeters wide.

Split it vertically, took half of it back to the weeds, and found that Miao Banxian was gone.

I called out twice before he came out of the bushes on the other side: "I just went to the neighborhood to have a look." ”

I looked at him fixedly, didn't ask much, and said, "Find a place with relatively good feng shui and bury them again." ”

"Eh, okay."

The original location of Qingtan Temple belongs to the treasure land of feng shui, it is not difficult to find a place to be buried again, I am not polite to collect a few straw mats in the side hall, there is no coffin, and I can only barely use this.

I tried to arrange the bones on the straw mat and bury them one by one, I used almost all my spiritual power to rebury them, and I couldn't make a pit for each bone, so I could only let them squeeze into a pit, after all, I wasn't sure if the arms, feet, and ribs I assembled were right.

A big bag of dirt came out, and it was almost dawn.

I carved the wooden block that I found in half before, and carved the tomb of the Qingtan Temple on the flat side, and stood in front of the earthen bag, and finally lit incense and candles, and took out the fruit bread that I had not touched, and put it on as a tribute for the time being.

There was a faint flash of light on the tablet.

"Say, where is the so-called treasure?"

As I stared at the tablet, Miao Banxian, who was one step behind, suddenly asked.

I said lightly: "There is no such thing as a treasure at all. ”

"How could it be, if not, how could it have been back then...... At that time, some people said that they had obtained treasures. ”

"Treasure, heh," I smiled coldly, "if you really want to talk about treasure, there really is one." ”

Miao Banxian hurriedly said, "Where is it?" ”

I opened my hands and made a gesture to hug the entire Qingtan Temple: "This Qingtan Temple is a treasure. ”

He frowned, and in his eagerness he forcibly suppressed his irritability: "What does this mean? ”

"Qingtan Temple is located in this location, feng shui is very good, and Qingtan Temple has the ancestors left the temple protection array, if you participate in Zen here, there will be twice the effect with half the effort, and some inner troubles, such as depression and depression, etc., if you can come here to sit for a long time, listen to the old monk chanting Zen lectures, you can also get a little peace of mind, for them, this is the treasure, for the Qingtan Temple monks who have been orphans since childhood, the Qingtan Temple that allows them to settle down is their home, but also their treasure."

I turned my head and looked at him with fierce intent: "Do you understand, you don't hesitate to kill so many innocent monks, and you want to find the treasure that you want to find after staying for fifty years and refusing to leave, that is, you can't touch it, but you are satisfied?" ”

"Miao Banxian" changed his complexion, his face transformed, and after half a ring, he recovered his old and wrinkled face, and his tall figure also stiffened, and his eyes burst with strong anger: "You lie to me, how can the treasure be just this ethereal thing!" ”

I smiled: "What you don't like, I don't know if people value it in their hearts, besides, you have been here for fifty years, whether there is a treasure in Qingtan Temple, don't you know, you are just unwilling to keep it for fifty years, just waiting for this result." ”

He staggered, and he seemed to be crazy: "No, I don't believe it, I don't believe it......"

Suddenly, he jumped up and attacked me: "If you dare to lie to me, I will kill you!" ”

I was depleted of spiritual power, and I had no ability to resist, but I still stood still, watching his hand bend into claws and grab at me—

He didn't touch me, and one after another of yin qi gathered around my neck, forming a thick barrier, blocking the old man's hand, and not an inch could enter.

From my eyes, I could see that it was one after another monks in cyan monk's robes, standing in front of me on top of each other, their hands open, and then like a thousand-armed Guanyin, they raised their hands and folded them in front of their chests, and the old man was bounced out by the invisible force.

He was old, and the impact left him unsteady on his feet.

It was as if he had lost all his strength in an instant, and he couldn't stand up.

The monks turned, and among the overlapping figures, the youngest and the oldest, all bent down and bowed deeply to me.

Even if they died, they always maintained their hearts, and did not become powerful ghosts as the old man said, because most people were only trapped in the main hall and let them out after dawn, and only the sinful people would be trapped and die in the Qingtan Temple.

I also folded my hands and bowed to them in return, and when the competition is over, the organizers will definitely arrange for them to be overtaken and returned to the Western Heavenly Bliss.

I then approached the old man and asked in a cold voice, "What about my companion?" ”

Miao Banxian was separated from me when I went to find wood, it was at that time, the old man pretended to be him, the old man has been cultivating in this Qingtan Temple for fifty years, but he has some ability, if I don't have a pair of eyes that can distinguish the black gas, I am afraid that I will really be deceived by him.

Sure enough, no one can believe it, and in the end, even "Miao Banxian" has to lie to me once.

The old man smiled dejectedly: "What if I fail, what if I die, don't there still be so many people with me and give me a back." His cloudy blue eyes looked at me gloomily, "You companion, you can't get it back." ”

I sneered: "I have never seen a person more stupid than you, even if you kill people for the sake of non-existent treasures, even if you commit evil obstacles, and still stupidly stay here for fifty years, how long is a person's life, even if you get the gold, silver and jewelry now, what about it, look twice?" Looking at your face, you have no children and no daughters, it's a pity, after the jewelry is in hand, you have to accompany you to be buried underground, what's the use?

Forget it, you still think you're dead, and these people you killed are the ones who put you on your back?

Funny you, did you know that there are eighteen layers of hell in the underworld? These monks can live in the ghost town of the underworld, drink tea leisurely, and wait for the day of reincarnation, while you, I'm afraid, you have to experience it layer by layer in the eighteen layers of hell, and experience it for thousands of years, maybe you can really wait for the opportunity to be reincarnated, and then cast a beast path, well, maybe you will become a pig, raise a white and fat land, and then be killed......"

As I spoke, I pasted a piece of talisman paper on him: "You don't know what the eighteenth layer of hell is like, I'll tell you about it." First of all, the first layer is called the hell of tongue pulling......"

As I narrated, there was an illusion in front of him, in which the imp broke open his mouth, clamped his tongue with iron tongs, and pulled it out raw, not all at once, but elongated and dragged slowly...... The level of pain can be imagined.

"You must know that the eighteen layers of hell, each hell is twenty times more bitter than the previous hell, and the life expectancy is doubled, so that you can live twice as long as you live, and you can enjoy the scenery of hell more. Ahem, I seem to be off topic, let's talk about the second layer of hell, called scissors hell...... The fifth layer, the steamer hell ......"

The more I spoke, the more he "looked," and was so frightened by the terrible sight he saw that he struggled to get up, as if his hands and feet were really chained, or if he was really thrown into a bloody hell and suffered untold pain.

If there were no evildoers, the talisman paper I pasted would not work, but if there was too much evil, and the old man was about to reach the end of his life at this time, his consciousness was still scattered, and he was easily drilled into his brain by the power of the charm, and he would see many punishments corresponding to him, as if he had really experienced it himself.

Taking this opportunity, I bent down close to the old man's ear and asked, "Where is my companion?" ”

He muttered subconsciously, "It's in the grass." ”

He didn't wake up for a while, so I left him alone and got up and rushed towards the weeds.

Although the bones have been dug up, but the yin qi resentment accumulated over the years is still there, and many mutated grasses in the weeds will want to accompany me from time to time, or entangle my body, or deliberately move the direction to make me get lost and trapped in it, I finally found the unconscious Miao Banxian, he has been entangled in many long weeds, forming a green cocoon, if it weren't for my good eyesight, I would almost miss him.

Struggled to peel off the roots and leaves of the weeds, dragged Miao Banxian out, carried him on his back, and took him out of the weeds.

At this time, the sky was still getting white, I looked up at the sky, sighed softly, and then lowered my head and slapped Miao Banxian.

He was aroused to wake up, and the person shook, first dazed, and then sat up excitedly: "I, what's wrong with me?" ”

"What's wrong with you?" I glared at him angrily.

He thought for himself and said, "I remember, you said you went out to find something, and then the old man also went into the grass to look for me......" He stopped himself, and thought about it and already understood what was going on, "Damn, it was plotted." ”

He turned his head around to look: "As for the old man, I must kill him." ”

"I'm going to wait for you to fight, and our lives will be gone."

Miao Banxian was embarrassed: "This time I was really careless, what is going on now?" ”

I took him to the grave where the monks were buried, and the old man was still lying there, screaming incessantly, obviously not yet awake from his hallucinations, and even if I tore off the talisman paper in the past, his eyes were cloudy, and he didn't respond half-loudly.

"It's over." I looked at the staff arranged by the organizer who was walking towards us, and said to Miao Banxian easily.

Miao Banxian, who was still thinking about whether to kick the old man a few times, didn't react: "The game is over?" Haven't found the wooden plaque yet? ”

I looked at the large tablet I had set up, "Isn't that it?" ”

The six contestants were taken out of Qingtan Temple, and the judges were already waiting outside, Wan Yan stood in front of us and said a few words of encouragement to us, and then there was a celebration banquet, in addition to the first place, the others were also considered the top six, and there would be a little reward, which would be awarded at the celebration banquet.

And this celebration banquet, many capable people of the Yin and Yang Association will participate, and the celebration banquet is not only a celebration banquet, but also a gathering of everyone once every five years.

After that, he let the mountain bike he drove before send us down the mountain again, Qiu Shishi himself occupied one, I sat on it with a red face, and I didn't dare to look at the reactions of the other players, but I didn't mean to deliberately avoid it, even if I heard Na Wanyan's cold snort.

The dead have always declared our relationship openly, and have never disliked my ghost identity, and I, before, was a little uncertain and uneasy, but now, the enemy poet has been "eaten" by me, I have completely marked him, what are you afraid of.

No one can tear us apart.

It's so confident, huh.

After coming down the mountain, I had to change to a car that would normally drive on the road, and here, there were already family members waiting, I saw Jiang Yahui get out of a car, walked straight to the mountain bike where Miao Banxian was, twisted Miao Banxian's ears, and dragged him out of the car, I could still hear her angry scolding:

"You useless thing, you're still not a man, how do I usually teach you, hiding in a woman in the semifinals, no, it's okay to be behind a female ghost, this time you can still be calculated by an old man who walks trembling, if it weren't for someone to save you, you would have died by now, what have you learned all these years, your head is, right?"

I always thought that Jiang Yahui was a calm and self-assured, somewhat arrogant mature woman in her thirties, but I never thought that she would have such a thunderous time?
