Chapter 231: Where is the sacred?
But at this moment, I suddenly felt like a pair of eyes were staring at me behind me, giving people a hairy feeling.
I turned my head to look, and I saw a statue of a god in the ruined temple.
The statue is also a little tattered, and I don't know what it is. I looked up and wanted to look for any information from the plaque in the temple, but when I looked up, there was no plaque.
It may be that after I called the land lord and didn't react, the village chief's expression was a little weak, but he immediately changed, and the corner of his mouth smirked: "Boy, don't bluff people." ”
I smiled, whether it's bluffing or not, you'll find out later.
The village chief has become fearless, and he said, "What are you waiting for, hurry up!" ”
The villagers hesitated.
The village chief opened his mouth and said, "As long as you do it, what the temple immortal promised us will definitely come true." ”
"But he'll also look for the land lord! The Lord of the Land is also a god. ”
This made the village chief immediately angry, and he kicked the man to the ground with his foot, and then said, "You have no share." ”
The village chief stepped forward after taking the rope himself, and the rest of the people saw that the village chief had done it himself, and they also hurriedly joined the camp.
The village chief walked in the front, and suddenly at this moment, several figures came not far away, they were in a hurry, and shouted in the distance: "King of the Wheel, the minister is late, please forgive the King of the Wheel." ”
I said it's okay, you show up and let them see it.
The land lord listened to my words and quickly did so. The village chief also came to me at this time, with a fierce look on his face, I had already made a judgment in my heart, he was not a good person, and Aunt Wang's death had something to do with him nine times out of ten.
"Lao Tzu asked you to play tricks." He said viciously.
I raised my foot and kicked him to the ground, and the village chief became even more angry, got up with a bone, and shouted, Lao Tzu must kill you today.
The land lord also came to me at this time, the land lord was thirty years old, with four ghosts around him, at this time they appeared, exuding a burst of black gas, black gas in the night, it looked very ghostly, the villagers saw this, and immediately frightened their faces like earth. Don't dare to step forward.
After the village chief got up, he was also stunned.
I smiled and said to the village chief, "Do you think I'm still lying to you now?" ”
The rest of the villagers may have been frightened, so they all knelt down and begged the land lord and said, "The land lord, we are also bewitched by others, and please ask the land lord to spare us." ”
Lord Di snorted coldly and said, "You Diao people, do you know who you are offending? He's the ...... of the underworld."
Seeing that the land lord was about to tell my identity, I interrupted the land lord and said, "It's just the keeper of the underworld, the land lord, you check whether Aunt Wang's soul has been taken away by you?" ”
The land lord didn't dare to slack off, and soon checked it, but after checking it for a while, he said no.
The villagers were still kneeling on the ground at this time and kept kowtowing, I said to the villagers; "You guys go first."
They immediately knelt and bowed to us, and then they ran out one after another, and the village chief also wanted to run, but I stopped him.
With a bitter look on his face, the village chief asked us, "What do you want to do?" ”
I said to the village chief, "You'd better tell everything you know, who are the so-called immortals?" ”
The village chief still held on, shook his head and said to us, "Don't ask me, I don't know anything." ”
Cao Tianshi had already picked up the rope and said to the village chief with a smile, "Didn't you want to tie us up just now?" As he spoke, Cao Tianshi tied up the village chief, and the village chief said with a sad face: "You just let me go, I really don't know anything." ”
I asked the land lord to go to the neighborhood to find the soul of Aunt Wang.
The land lord took the little ghost to look for it, and I tried to feel it, but I didn't feel the breath of the soul at all.
Of course, not all souls in this world will go back to hell, and Daoist Qiu told me before. In addition, there are many wandering ghosts and ghosts floating in this world, they are nostalgic for the world, and they have been wandering in the world, but they are like lost dogs, and they are worried that they will be discovered by the ghosts of the underworld at any time.
I asked the village chief, "Did you kill the man?" ”
The village chief hurriedly shook his head and said, "I didn't kill it, I don't dare to kill anyone!" ”
"Then you said you were going to burn us." Cao Tianshi interjected and asked.
The village chief explained that he was just scaring us, and the village chief's eyes were rolling, and he was thinking about something at a glance.
"Why did you follow us as soon as we came in, and you arrived after us? It's calculated. If this man wants to say that you didn't kill him, I really can't believe it. ”
The village chief was hesitant for a while, and he couldn't say clearly.
But at this time, I suddenly felt a chill behind me, the coldness of the bones was a little biting, I turned my head to look, and I was stunned, and a look of surprise appeared on my face, thinking that this should not be!
I saw that Aunt Wang's body was gone.
Will the dead body disappear on its own? The only explanation is that he is not dead at all.
I turned around and walked towards the inside of the temple, I didn't look at the statue carefully just now, so I planned to come in, and I looked carefully that Master Cao Tianshi also followed me.
He took out a flashlight and shone it over, the statue was already covered with a thick layer of dust, and it seemed that there were usually no people to worship, which basically meant that there was no incense, otherwise it would not be so bad. I looked at it for a few minutes, and I suddenly became curious in my heart, and I couldn't help but ask, "Master Cao, do you see this idol is male or female?" ”
Cao Tianshi said, I'll let you wait. Then he climbed up and cleaned the idol with his hands.
After the idol was cleaned, my face and body suddenly became clearer, and I was stunned for a few seconds and said, "It's actually a goddess statue." ”
I think it's a bit surprising, but looking at the ancient immortals, there are indeed very few goddesses, and there are very few who can be worshipped. In addition to those like Guanyin sending children to Niangniang and the Queen Mother, the rest are really rare.
The statue of the god in front of him, whether it is dressed in a variety of clothes, is rare.
Cao Tianshi suddenly muttered, "How does this look like He Xiangu?" ”
I said to Cao Tianshi, He Xiangu? Are you sure?
Cao Tianshi wasn't sure, but he just looked a little like it.
I couldn't help but wonder for a while, to see if I couldn't see anything, or I had to start with the village chief, but before I could turn around, there was a scream behind me, and I quickly turned around, and saw the village chief lying on the ground.
I stepped forward quickly, first reached out and tested the village chief's snort, and died.
Then I began to look for the spirit of the village chief, but there was no trace of the soul at all, I left the temple, the person had just died, and the soul should not have disappeared from here so quickly.
And I'm the Wheel King of the Underworld, and if there's a soul nearby, I'm sure I'll be able to sense it.
So this soul, if I guess correctly, should still be in the temple, I turned around and came back, first checked the situation of the corpse, the village chief was pale, his lips were blue, his eyes were still protruding outward, I looked down from above, and I saw a handprint on his neck.
It was strangled to death.
God was strangled to death unconsciously, and it seems that he is really not an ordinary person.
I couldn't help but remind Cao Tianshi to be careful. Cao Tianshi answered and said okay.
I looked around, and after a while, the land lord came back with a ghost, his face was a little unsightly, and he walked up to me and said respectfully: "Returning to the wheel king, your subordinates have not found the soul of Aunt Wang." His subordinates are incompetent, and he asks the king of the wheel to give him sin. ”
I said to him, "Now is not the time to talk about this, you go and guard the outside of the temple, and as long as there is a soul that goes out, you will immediately arrest it."
The land lord answered, and walked out.
Cao Tianshi also asked me, "Zhang Yan, do you think the soul is still here?" ”
I'm noncommittal.
I re-entered the temple, and I said, "In the lower underworld, the wheel king Zhang Yan, please also ask the gods to appear and see it." ”
I spoke politely to her idol.
But at this moment, the red timber wolf suddenly barked a few times, as if to remind us of something, we looked back, and saw the village chief who was lying down, and suddenly got up, his face was terrible, and blood was still flowing from his eyes.
The red timber wolf barked, trying to chase him away, but to no avail.
He was like a walking corpse at this point.
Cao Tianshi said to me, "Zhang Yan, you will leave him to me." Cao Tianshi swore and walked towards the village chief.
I also thought in my heart, no matter what Master Cao said, he is also a master of the third layer of the Lord Yellow Realm, so it is not an accident to clean up a corpse.
I continued to face the temple and asked, "Zhang Yan asked himself if he didn't do anything to be sorry for the gods since he came to the village, and I don't know why you want to harm us." ”
I was convinced in my heart that there must be something wrong with this temple.
I couldn't get a response, so I had to continue: "I wonder if the gods can come out and see it?" ”
As soon as I responded to the noise outside, my patience was gradually exhausted, and I said, "If you don't come out, don't blame me for being rude." ”
I lit a fire and prepared to burn his idol.
Just as he was about to make a move, Cao Tianshi's screams came from behind him, and he shouted: "Zhang Yan, save me, save me......"
I turned my head to look and saw Cao Tianshi being pressed under the village chief, looking very embarrassed. I didn't delay, I stepped forward and got the village chief away, Cao Tianshi got up quickly, and the village chief wanted to come up with his teeth and claws.
I raised my foot and kicked the village chief back more than ten meters, and the village chief flew to the ground. There was no movement.
Cao Tianshi was still panting and said, "It's really immeasurable Tianzun, I almost killed Lao Tzu." ”
I said to Cao Tianshi angrily: "You are still a person who has entered the cultivation realm, and you can't even beat a corpse." ”
Cao Tianshi retorted and said, "I'm just a fortune teller, where can there be any exercises to hurt people." ”
Indeed, Cao Tianshi really didn't seem to have learned anything.
I haven't been entangled with Cao Tianshi for too long, I must explore the secrets of this temple today. When I went in, I re-lit the fire and said, "If you don't come out, I'll set it on fire." ”
I counted ten times silently, but there was no movement, and I threw the fire I lit towards the idol.
As soon as the fire touched the idol, a strange thing happened.
