Chapter 44: Hiding a Body Under the Bed

The summer night of Zhushan Temple is particularly quiet in the moonlight. But I didn't want to appreciate the beauty of this moonlit night, but I was filled with a kind of fear of this quietness.

If I don't come, maybe the ghost of the Cloud Dream Dao Leader will be angry and unfavorable to me, and when I face him, I don't have a chance of winning in my heart; I'm here, no matter what the hell he thinks, he shouldn't kill me anyway, because with his Yin Spirit power, to kill me now, isn't it like pinching an ant to death?

Entering the Zhushan Temple, according to the request of the Yunmeng Daoist, I quickly touched the door of the Wuxin Daoist's room. According to Daoist Yunmeng, Daoist Wuxin must have stolen the Night Pearl in the Guanzhong, so where would he hide the Night Pearl? There was no doubt that such a valuable thing would have been hidden in what he thought was the safest place, and that was his room.

A heavy iron lock hung over Chief Wuxin's room, but it was difficult for me to enter his room without a trace. Because it is an ancient temple, the buildings are all old-fashioned brick wall structures, and the windows are also antique wooden frames.

The experience gained from being naughty and mischievous in Lao Ling's shop came in handy at this moment. I pinched the bottom of a wooden window with three fingers in my left hand, pinched the bar above it with my right hand, and with a gentle support, the tenon of the wooden window detached.

Gently lowering the wooden window against the wall, I took a look at the moonlight that penetrated the room, and climbed lightly from the windowsill.

There was a deathly silence in the room, but I didn't feel the smell of death, which made my heart settle down a little. What I'm most worried about is that I'm afraid that after the Wuxin Dao Elder kills the master, I will hide the body of the Yunmeng Dao Leader in his own room.

To say that you are not afraid of corpses is to talk nonsense with your eyes open. No normal person wants to see something obscure and terrifying, unless he has a funny mind.

Of course, I should belong to the category of people who are not afraid of corpses in the eyes of ordinary people, but what I am worried about is that if I find the body of Yunmeng Dao Chief, report the crime or not? Either way, it's going to get me in a lot of trouble.

Zhushan Guan was originally in the uninhabited mountains, and at this time, the only Taoist priest Wuxin Daoist was in the county seat, and there was no one else in this temple except me, so I was able to search Wuxin Daoist's room with confidence and boldness.

Despite this, I still did it very carefully, for fear that if I came back, I would find something abnormal and suspicious. Every single thing, I carefully flipped it, trying not to leave any traces.

However, everything was in vain, and after looking through it, I didn't find any priceless night pearls. Frustrated, I put the purpose of keeping a trace behind me, lit a cigarette, and sat quietly on the bed of the unintentional leader, looking at the contents of the room and thinking about my thoughts.

Could it be that I made a mistake in my judgment, and there is no night pearl in this view? Could it be that the unintentional Taoist didn't hide the Night Pearl in the house at all?

Suddenly, I was startled by a few low 'tuk-tuk' sounds, and the cigarette in my hand fell to the ground. A chill gradually welled up from my heart, and there was still no movement in the room, could it be that this strange sound came from underground?

Normal people, in this lifeless environment, when they hear such a voice, they will definitely turn around and run away, not to mention being scared half to death. But I didn't, it's not that I'm not afraid, because I'm worried about Shi Mengya's safety, if I sneak into Zhushan Temple, I won't find anything, but I'm very disappointed.

There is an abnormality in the view, which means that there is something strange, which means that I may find some clues, so as to gradually break the curse of the fairy grandmother and save Shi Mengya.

I jumped out of the bed like a spring, and turned my head to stare at the old-fashioned bamboo bed of the Wuxin Daoist. Seeing that the bamboo bed was nearly half a meter high above the ground, surrounded by bamboo strips, my heart moved, and I began to wonder if this strange sound came from inside the bamboo bed.

Either way, I'm going to unravel this mystery. I recited the mantra that my grandfather had taught me a few times, and then pasted a piece of talisman paper on the bamboo bed, and after taking a few deep breaths, I grabbed the surface of the bed and tried to move it vigorously.

I was surprised and delighted that the top of the bed could be separated from the bottom of the bed. Could it be that the Night Pearl is really in the bamboo bed?

As soon as my mind moved, I saw a faint blue light shining from the gap in the bed that I had removed. But the light was fleeting, and there was no trace of it.

It doesn't make sense, this light must be from the pearl of the night. I suppressed the excitement in my heart, and with a single effort of my hands, I lifted the entire bed.

The moonlight could not reach the position of the bed, and when the bed was uncovered, it was pitch black, as if it was a large mouth that wanted to devour me, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

Holding my breath, I took a tiny flashlight out of my pocket and shone it into the bed. This photo scared me almost out of my mind.

I really didn't expect that under the bed of the heartless Taoist, there was a person lying upright. No, it should be said to be a dead man, because no living person would lie under the bed like this without moving.

It's really depressing, if there are dead people in this room, why don't I feel the corpse?

After an exclamation, I realized where I was and quickly covered my mouth, not daring to make any more noise. After standing in a daze for a while, I suddenly woke up: a corpse was found under the bed of the Wuxin Dao Chief, and this corpse must be the corpse of his master Yun Meng Dao Chang!

This damn old way, it's just bullshit, coaxing me to say that there is a night pearl in the temple, it turned out that he was afraid that I would not sneak into the Zhushan Temple, and he thought of a way to coax me to come and help him find his body.

Not good! My scalp felt like it had exploded, buzzing. Why am I here? It's nothing more than that I want to stop the curse on the coffin of the Immortal Mother-in-law's Yin and Yang Seven Evils, save the life of the unintentional Taoist chief named Shi Bin, make the Yin and Yang Seven Evils unable to operate, and stop the Immortal Mother-in-law from cursing and killing Shi Mengya and turning her into her conspiracy to marry her daughter-in-law.

In the county town, when I pointed out that Daoist Yunmeng was dead, he wanted to go to his apprentice Daoist Wuxin to take revenge, but because of the Yang Qi of Daoist Wuxin, as well as the blood of Daoist Wuxin and Xiaomei when they were in the joy of fish and water, the ghost of Daoist Yunmeng did not dare to approach.

That's why Daoist Yunmeng told me about the Night Pearl, and begged me to help him come to Zhushan to do this. Actually, I was deceived by the old gossip.

He wants to borrow my hand to find his own body, so that he may be able to use his Dao method to possess his soul through corpses, and be able to get close to the Wuxin Dao Leader, so as to take revenge and ask for his life.

But once he gets his wish, what do I do? As soon as the unintentional Dao chief dies, the curse of the Yin and Yang Seven Evil Coffins continues to operate, isn't Shi Mengya's life on the line?
