Chapter 158: Earth Qi

When the ninth brother heard from the village party secretary that the old temple was dedicated to the great immortal, he smiled: "I want to see what kind of sacredness your small place can produce." ”

Our group did not take the car, but walked back to the village in the cold wind, where the old temple was. I have a chance to take a good look at this temple.

This temple is built behind an old locust tree, there is an earth high platform in front, the whole temple covers a large area, it is dilapidated, even the door panel is gone, and the load-bearing pillars on all sides are peeling off very seriously. Looking through the gate, it was covered in dust, Hesse.

The people walked down the steps, and the temple was empty, except for a shrine and an offering table. Behind the shrine stands a statue of a woman, dressed in an ancient robe with wide sleeves. I don't know which god this statue is erected from, and it's very unfamiliar. However, judging from the statue, the prototype of this woman should be quite beautiful, with a round face. It's just that the age is too old, the color is peeling, and the clods of soil of the statue have fallen off a lot, especially the face, which has almost collapsed in half, and it looks a little eerie and weird.

Brother Jiu stared at the statue with a strange look in his eyes, and he couldn't tell what the expression was. He asked the village party secretary which great fairy this was.

The village party secretary put on an old cotton jacket and said, "Bosses, have you watched "Journey to the West"? There is an old drama in "Journey to the West", called Three Dozen White Bone Spirits. The old fairy of this temple in our village is different from other places, she is the white bone lady in the three dozen white bone spirits. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other, and Brother Jiu smiled meaningfully: "It's a little interesting, you mean that this god statue is a white bone spirit?" ”

The village party secretary seems to be afraid of this statue: "Mrs. White Bone, Mrs. White Bone, it's hard to say that the White Bone Spirit." ”

"What's the allusion?" Brother Jiu asked.

The village party secretary said: "It's been a long time since I said this. When I was a child, I remember that there was such a statue of a god, but later in the turbulent era, we were also rebels, and a group of young revolutionaries wanted to smash this statue, and I couldn't persuade it. The most evil thing is that these statue-smashing youngsters will not die well in the future, and several of them died violently, and then no one mentioned smashing the statue. After the reform and opening up, it was rebuilt, and then there was no incense, our village was really poor, and the people were not able to feed well, who had spare money for the gods, and it had been like this until now. ”

Brother Jiu smiled and shook his head: "I have traveled all over the country, and I have seen everything that is offered, and I have even seen a mouse being worshipped, but I have never seen a white bone spirit being worshipped." It's kind of a local feature of yours here. ”

He turned his head to look at me: "Xiao Feng, are you afraid?" ”

I looked at the dilapidated statue on the shrine, and thought to myself that I would have to do this job if I was afraid or not, and it was better to be tough, so I said that I was not afraid.

Brother Jiu nodded: "Okay, without further ado, the old branch secretary will trouble you, is there a ladder in the village to borrow for us, let our little mage climb to the beam of the house." ”

The village party secretary's lips trembled: "It's really climbing." ”

The assistant next to him was impatient: "Let you go, why is there so much nonsense." ”

The village party secretary snorted and said, "I'm not afraid of anything else, such a strong wind will be dangerous on the beams of the house." ”

"It doesn't matter to you whether you're in danger or not." The assistant clicked on him.

Brother Jiu waved his hand and motioned to the assistant not to talk like that. He walked to the village branch secretary, stretched out his hand to sort out the collar of the old branch secretary, patted his shoulder, and said: "Listen to me, I have an important event here, as long as you cooperate well, I will build a factory here with you when the time comes, and help the villagers get rid of poverty and become rich." ”

The village party secretary really had no choice, so he sighed and went out of the temple to arrange.

There were only a few of us left in the temple, and it was freezing outside, and the cold wind blew in, and I shivered from the cold. I found that Yan Yuqing and Monk Yuantong were really masters, they were extremely thinly dressed, and they were not cold at all in such a wind, and their faces were as usual. These two people do have the way to go.

Brother Nine looked at the statue and asked what the three of us thought.

Yan Yuqing shook his head with a smile: "One wooden peg, it's just a worship of obscenity in the countryside." ”

Monk Yuantong didn't answer, just chanted Anitabha.

I can't even see it, and frankly I don't know.

The ninth brother was very interested in the idol, so he circled around twice and said, "It's a pity that the peeling is too serious, and only a small half of the face can be seen, if only you can see the original appearance." She was a very beautiful woman, and I think I'd seen her somewhere. ”

Hearing him say this, I looked at the idol again, looked at the half of the face, and had a strange feeling, I seem to have seen this woman of the idol somewhere.

Just as he was thinking, a voice came in from outside the temple. The village party secretary led a group of villagers to come, carrying a wooden ladder seven or eight meters long, and was putting it on the beams.

The wind outside is getting stronger and stronger, not only cold, but also a whirlwind, blowing the storm in front of the old temple, fascinating everyone who can't open their eyes, and covering their heads with cotton jackets.

My heart was pounding, and I looked up at the height, it was really a falk squid, and this temple was three stories high, to say the least. This has to climb up, such a strong wind, one foot in the air and falls, maybe what's going on.

When the evil wind finally blew over, everyone set up the ladder and several people supported it, and the village party secretary said to me, "Little brother, it's okay, let's go up." Be careful. ”

I made my way to the ladder and climbed up the ladder, while everyone watched from below.

We had just climbed a few steps when suddenly a man ran from the village road, holding a hoe in his hand, and pointed at us and shouted, "What are you doing!" ”

The village party secretary hurriedly beckoned: "Stop him." Several villagers used to hold this person down, and Jiu Ge asked the village party secretary: "Who is this?" ”

The village party secretary said disdainfully: "It's the second fool in our village, don't worry about him, his mouth is full of crazy words." ”

The man struggled and cried like a wild beast: "You city people have come to bring trouble to our village, so get out of here!" You are not welcome here. ”

Brother Jiu frowned: "I see that this person speaks quite clearly, not like a fool." ”

The village party secretary said: "This person is an old bachelor, his family is surrounded by walls, he can't even talk about his daughter-in-law, he is still a tendon, admits death, and chatters all day long, saying that the village is so poor because of what corpses are buried underground." No one in our village paid any attention to him. ”

The man struggled forward, and the hoe in his hand had already been snatched away. He came to Brother Jiu and gave Brother Jiu a bow: "I beg you, people in the city, I see that you are their big boss, you send a message, hurry up, I know what you are doing." ”

Brother Jiu remained silent: "What are we doing here?" ”

"Aren't you just running for ...... "The corpse," he said, "I can't let you find it anyway." ”

Brother Jiu said, "You understand, what are we rushing for, do you know anything?" ”

That man has a very honest face, and he won't play tricks. was forced to ask by Brother Jiu, his face was red and his neck was thick, and his neck was stalked: "Anyway, you have to go." ”

Brother Jiu was impatient and waved his hand to let others stare at him. Brother Jiu urged me: "Xiao Feng, hurry up, don't stop." ”

I said yes and continued to climb up.

The foolish man didn't pay attention to others, and suddenly made a bullish move, broke free and ran over, and kicked at the ladder. I was climbing half-high, the ladder suddenly slipped, I screamed in fright, and hugged the ladder in a cold sweat, but fortunately the others held it in time.

I was furious: "Look at this madman!" I won't climb anymore. ”

The man was caught by other villagers and tied up with a rope, and the village party secretary was furious: "Press to the treasury, lock it up for two days, and crash into the nobles in the city, it's not enough to kill your two heads!" ”

The man was kidnapped and taken away.

After such a small episode, my eyelids jumped and I felt uncomfortable, so let's quickly solve it and quickly climb up the ladder to the top. The roof tiles were broken and crunched when I stepped on them, so I cautiously descended from the ladder and climbed on the beams.

At the top, there was a cornice, and I slowly stood up, and the wind was blowing so hard that I was soaking through. I gritted my teeth and looked down on the village.

Looking down from above, I can see that this village is really poor, with broken houses full of civil engineering and speckled fish ponds in the distance.

I said in my heart, "Sect Leader Huang, it's up to you. ”

"Here we are." Huang Xiaotian said.

My whole body was hot, my heart was beating wildly, and a tingling pain emanated from a little in my back and then spread all over my body. I shuddered, and made a swing on the beams.

There were many villagers watching below, and the village party secretary shouted: "Little brother, you are steady." ”

Now I can't control myself at all, swaying left and right, Huang Xiaotian succeeded. I rubbed my eyes and began to observe the atmosphere of the whole village, and this time I realized that there was a problem.

With the help of Huang Xiaotian's supernatural powers, I have had several experiences of observing qi, no matter what the environment, the earth's qi is dense above the surface, some like hot air with high temperature, faint and floating. And the atmosphere of this village is very strange, it does not float on the surface, but is sealed below the ground.

The ground of the entire village resembles an impermeable transparent membrane, and the ground qi swells underground, forming several spider silk-like veins, slowly surging towards one location.

I rubbed my eyes and looked closely, and all the earth qi was rushing there at a very slow pace. It's like there's a black hole underground, sucking all the earth's qi away.

I suddenly realized that this place is so poor, could it have something to do with this strange feng shui.

The underground black hole is filled with thick black gas, thick but not dispersed, just in the distance. Looking at it, I had a very strange feeling, I was staring at the black hole, there seemed to be something unimaginable in the black hole, looking back at me.
