Miscellaneous trees and barren grass had no path, Xie Feichen struggled to separate the branches that blocked the road from the waist-high weeds, and walked towards the mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Although there used to be a mountain road under his feet, it has been abandoned for many years with the relocation of the village, except for a few villagers who occasionally go up the mountain every year, it has not continued to be used at all, so it has long been covered by the crazy vegetation, and it is very difficult to walk.

"I'm really asking for my own suffering." Xie Feichen muttered in his mouth, waving the tree trunk he picked up at the foot of the mountain to explore the way ahead. After walking for about forty minutes, it was not until he was almost at the top of the mountain that he saw the goal of his trip up the mountain, an abandoned temple buried in the grass.

It is not so much a ruined temple as a ruin, a ruin that remains in this deserted mountain range today. The walls made of stones of different sizes have already collapsed for the most part, and the edges are full of crisp traces of weathering and erosion, and large patches of oily green moss cover the gray-brown stone surface in the shade, Xie Feichen raised the trunk of the thick arm and knocked it a few times, and the sound of Xixisuo was immediately heard from the many stone cracks on the ground and spread to the surroundings, obviously it had already become a nest for many reptiles.

The original incense offering table had long since been turned into rotten wood in the sun and rain, and a few skinny mushrooms grew on it, and the half-broken and collapsed idol on the ground was also covered with green vines and lichens, and only a glimpse of the original part of the idol could only be glimpsed by chance from the corners and crevices that had not yet been covered with dark green.

Xie Feichen stabbed it carelessly, only to see that the already fragile idol shattered lightly and turned into several irregular pieces, but there was no more reaction.

Unwillingly, he carefully glanced at it for a long time, Xie Feichen closed his eyes stupidly, and he couldn't find any spiritual light in this abandoned temple and had to admit that no matter what occupied this place in the first place, that thing hadn't come back for a long time.

Decades ago, there was a "Qigu Temple" on this mountain, which was the abandoned temple at the foot of Xie Feichen. According to the news that Xie Feichen had found in the village at the foot of the mountain in the past half a day, he had a general understanding of the ins and outs of this Qigu Temple, and heard some legendary anecdotes.

Before liberation, there was an idle leper gangster in the village, who stole chickens and dogs all day long, which disgusted everyone, but this guy had a ruthless personality, and he learned the style for a few years in his early years, although he had a bad record, he did not make any big mistakes, so he could live a mixed life. Suddenly, one day, this gangster, nicknamed the leper Tiesan, claimed that he had won the name of the fairy girl and asked the people in the village to build a temple to worship the fairy girl.

At first, the villagers naturally scoffed, which way fairy girl would dream of this kind of gangster, it was absolutely blind, and only regarded it as a trick for Tie San to cheat and eat and drink, but the leper Tie San used the ecstasy spell that he learned from nowhere, and fainted the villagers who mocked the most fiercely on the spot, which immediately made the rest of the villagers frightened and frightened. In the end, a few old people in the village came out to play a round and asked the craftsmen in the village to build a small temple not far from the top of the mountain.

This temple is naturally illegal, but even in a peaceful and prosperous era, this kind of obscene wild temple in the countryside and mountains is also banned, not to mention the turbulent environment at that time, no one will take care of it. Although these seven aunts don't know which way they are, they do have a bit of a miracle, and the common people don't care if the gods in the temple are immortals in the court, anyway, they worship if there are spirits.

If you want to say that you want to ask for rain and a good harvest, you can't worship the seventh aunt, it is the matter of the dragon prince and the land lord, but if someone in the village has a sudden illness, or the family has lost something, lost the animal and other things, it is very strange to come to the temple to ask for this seven aunts. And the leper Tie San has also become a temple in the temple, as if he has changed a person, he has to live in a simple and taciturn manner, and the villagers say that he has been enlightened by the fairy girl, so he has changed his past bad habits.

After coming and going, the reputation of the Qigu Temple gradually spread, and even the people in the nearby villages often came to worship and ask for blessings, and the incense was endless.

If this is all there is to it, then this Qigu Temple is only one of the countless inconspicuous small temples in the land of China, at most it has a little fame in the nearby villages, which is not surprising at all. But an incident happened later that made this Qigu Temple a strange story in the countryside that the nearby villagers talked about, and it has been passed down to this day.

That was after the liberation, when the tide of the movement to break the four olds swept across the country like a storm, and the mountain countryside was also affected, and the Qigu Temple, which was already quite famous in the local area at that time, naturally became a conspicuous target, and was prepared to be smashed and bulldozed as a feudal superstition. At that time, the leper Tie San was already dead, and Miaozhu was another villager who clashed with the red generals who rushed into the Qigu Temple with great interest, and was knocked to the ground in the chaos.

The strange thing happened at this time, when the temple Zhu fell to the ground, a sudden agitation under his clothes burst out of a black shadow to escape to the temple, and the leader of the red general quickly subconsciously smashed his brain with a shovel, showing his true face on the spot, it was a huge weasel, and the audience was in an uproar. This kind of strange thing happened, it must have spread all over the nearby villages in a short period of time, and the villagers suddenly realized that this seventh aunt turned out to be Wong Tai Sin.

Among the five immortals of "fox, gray, willow, yellow and white" widely circulated among the people, in addition to the fox fairy, the most well-known goblin by word of mouth, the strongest and most frequent appearance of the spirit is the weasel spirit, which is also known as Wong Tai Sin or contemptuously called Huang Pizi. The old man in the village remembered that the leper Tie San had a makeover in a short period of time, and thought that the seventh aunt's favorite offering was a chicken, and naturally thought that the leper Tie San had been manipulated by the weasel at that time.

This kind of thing happened, this Qigu Temple is not only the residual poison of feudalism, but also has become a bull ghost and snake god who intends to destroy socialism, and it was bulldozed and smashed by the red generals on the spot.

Things took a turn for the worse, and two days later, the red general who killed the weasel hiding in the temple Zhu hanged himself at home, and the red generals who were present together also had two inexplicably crazy, and the villagers all said that this was the weasel to take revenge, and there was a lot of uproar for a while. In a different time, people may have flinched in the face of such strange things, but in that era of sincere and fanatical faith, this incident was seen by more people in the movement as a counterattack against the defeated bull ghosts and snake gods - and it was.

So under the call of a local armed minister, the nearby villages started a large chain, and the vast number of people were organized to search for the mountains, and under the leadership of a few old hunters and many hunting dogs, they filtered over and over again like a sieve, and almost all the weasels in the nearby mountains were exterminated.

Decades have passed, the times have long been different, whether it was the Qigu Temple that was full of incense at that time or that fanatical era has been buried in history, this past is like many rural anecdotes drifting away with the wind, only the elderly villagers will occasionally mention casually.

And the ruins of the Qigu Temple at Xie Feichen's feet are less than half a mile away from where Liu Zhenguang and them camped not long ago.

"Strange, there is really no aura here, could it be that the yellow skin attached to that little girl has nothing to do with this seventh aunt?" Xie Feichen unwillingly searched again for a while, scratching his chin a little confused: "It's unlikely, it's so close and they're all weasel spirits, no matter how you think about it, you won't have no origin." ”

"Or is this place abandoned?"

Xie Feichen sighed a little helplessly, he didn't find any clues, the mountain was climbed in vain for half a day, and he had the right to exercise.

Why don't you stay here for two days and see if you can discover anything new?

In his heart, Xie Feichen still rejected this idea, judging from the situation he found in the villa that day, the soul attached to the little girl did not have the dead breath of a ghost, most of them were living beings, in this case, the body of that thing would not be too far away, even if he stayed here for two days, he would not find any clues.

Besides, he came here to investigate just casually, and he didn't have much hope, anyway, if he really wanted to solve it in the end, he still had to start with the little girl.

The most important thing is that Xie Feichen has already received the news from the summoned object that was dispatched, and Hu Kaikang, the young man he met in the Lingyan Club that day, has started to move.

"Compared to the small branch line here, the one over there is a big fish!"

Thinking of the content of the news sent back by the summoned creature, Xie Feichen's eyes were gloomy, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
