Chapter 967: City God Temple
The cemetery is far from the city and the countryside, and there are no traces of human activity except for the surrounding crops. Zi Hidden Pavilion
It was dark, except for the phosphorescent glow that flickered from time to time. Only the stars in the sky remained. Through these glimmers, I could tell that the two dark shadows not far away were not alive.
Man lives in a house while he is alive and sleeps in a coffin when he dies. A grave is the equivalent of a dead man's house. And these two guys just sit on top of other people's heads, which is really rude. But no one dared to stop the little ghost in the grave.
I lowered my voice and said to Mr. Lu in a very low voice: "Look at these two guys, are they powerful ghosts who steal souls?" ”
Mr. Lu nodded and continued to observe without saying a word.
I saw that both of these ghosts were very angry. No wonder the imps around him didn't dare to approach. This is not unusual. We've seen a lot of ghosts that are heavier than their yin energy.
It's strange that these two ghosts are all masked. Only a pair of eyes were revealed, shining in the darkness, as if they were worried that others would recognize them.
I heard the ghost sitting on the tombstone say, "Three hands, did you bring what I wanted?" ”
I looked at the ghost sitting on the grave and thought, "So your name is Three Hands." You specialize in stealing other people's things, and you don't have to be wronged to get such a nickname. ”
The three hands smiled and said, "Watch dog, I want something." Never missed. ”
I almost burst out laughing when I heard this. Are the two of them here to talk about things, or are they here to belittle each other? One said that the other party was three-handed, and the other scolded back, calling him a watchdog.
The watchdog heard the three hands call him that, and he just snorted coldly.
He stretched out his hand and said, "Take it out." ”
Three hands rummaged through the body for a moment. After a few seconds, he pulled out a cloth bag from his body.
He opened the cloth bag, and there was a ghost crying wolf howl from inside.
I heard it very clearly, it was the voice of the cheap mushroom. He was shouting loudly, crying hoarsely. But as if they hadn't heard, the three hands handed him over to the watchdog.
The watchdog opened his cloth bag and looked at it, nodded, and said, "That's right, it's him." ”
When I heard this, I felt strange in my heart: "Listening to the two of them, it seems that the watchdog first determined the target, and then hired three hands to steal the soul." Why did the watchdogs catch these people? ”
The watchdog retied the sack. The voice of the mushroom was sealed inside, and it could no longer be heard.
Three hands said, "It's time for you to pay me." ”
The watchdog smiled: "In two days, I will send someone to burn it for you." Later, he persuaded: "My master thinks it is better for you to do this matter yourself." ”
The three hands smiled and said, "Your master wants to do great things." But I didn't want to mix it. I'm just an idle crane, stealing other people's souls, exchanging some wine and meat, and living a very comfortable life. If you get into the muddy waters, you won't be able to get out of it. ”
The watchdog smiled: "If you really have no intention of joining, we will not force it." They also have a leader called AIDS, when are you bringing it? ”
The three hands said, "That kid is very cunning, and it will take a lot of effort to steal his soul. ”
The watchdog said lightly: "There should be nothing in this world that you can't steal." ”
The three hands smiled and said, "Different things have different prices." ”
The watchdog said, "I understand, if you bring in the spirit of AIDS, I'll give you double the price." ”
The three hands said lightly: "Triple." ”
The watchdog was silent for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Three hands arched their hands at him, and said, "In that case, I will take my leave." ”
Then, he strode into the distance.
At this time, the watchdog stopped him: "Brother, can you let me see your true face?" ”
Without any hesitation, Sanshou refused bluntly: "No." ”
The watchdog seemed to have anticipated this answer, he smiled and asked, "Then can you sue me, are you someone I know?" ”
The third hand said again, "No." ”
Then, without waiting for the watchdog to ask again, he left the place.
The watchdog stood in the graveyard with his hands in his hands, sighed for a moment, and then went in the other direction.
I asked Mr. Lui, "What should we do?" ”
Mr. Lu said: "Of course, I went up and had a look." Then, he instructed: "This terrible ghost called the watchdog has a very heavy yin qi, you should be careful and don't expose it." ”
I said, "I think he meant to give the soul of the cheap mushroom to his master. He was already powerful enough in his own right, and his master was probably even more difficult. If we don't pay attention and offend them, will we be able to come back alive? ”
Mr. Lu stared at the figure of the guard dog getting farther and farther away, and said with a smile: "Then it depends on what you mean." If you think this little life is important, don't follow it. If you think those hundreds of thousands of dollars are important, just rush up and take a look. ”
I hesitated for a long time and said, "The enemy of our enemy is our friend." Since this gang is going around catching thieves, they should be reasonable. ”
Xue Qian said: "Lao Zhao, I don't think their purpose is to catch thieves. For example, the three hands just now were a powerful thief, why didn't he catch them? ”
I said, "He wanted to catch him, but looking at the way he looked, it seemed that he couldn't catch people." ”
The three of us whispered a few words and followed.
The watchdog walked very fast, and he didn't seem to expect anyone to follow him, so he didn't look back along the way.
We sneaked around and followed all the way to a city god temple. I watched the watchdog go inside the temple.
The gate of the City God Temple was opened, revealing the light of fire inside. From time to time, there was a shouting from inside.
I said, "Could it be that the owner of the watchdog is the city god?" Why didn't I know that Chenghuang suddenly had such a great ability? ”
Mr. Lu looked around and said suspiciously, "How can there be a City God Temple in this place, why haven't I paid attention to it before?" ”
Xue Qian also said: "I am very familiar with this place, there should be no temple, let me think about it......" He thought for a long time, and suddenly said: "I remember, in this location, it should be a broken house." The house was so dilapidated that it was impossible to tell whether it was a small temple or a private house. ”
Mr. Lu analyzed: "It is likely that many years ago, this was indeed a city god temple, but it was abandoned after a long time. Then there is a terrible ghost occupying it, and it is so magnificent with illusion. ”
I asked Mr. Lui, "What should we do next?" "Fork the pound and the bird.
Mr. Lu said, "Next. We can swagger to the inside of the City God Temple. Visit the owner of the watchdog directly. Tell him what happened. Let him get your money back to you when he catches AIDS. ”
I said, "Isn't that too risky?" If the owner of the doordog has an enmity against us, then we will not be dead? ”
Mr. Lu said: "If you are afraid, I have another way. I can tie a paper figure, and then take out a wisp of your soul, attach it to the paper figure, and you sneak in......"
I waved my hand and said, "That's how you used it last time, and I almost lost my soul. ”
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Then we can only use the third method." Let's turn around and go back to sleep. ”
I glared: "We are not involved in the affairs here?" ”
Mr. Lu smiled: "Of course you have to participate, but you know yourself and your opponent, and you will win all battles." Tomorrow during the day, the imps will be dormant. Let's take advantage of that time to sneak into this City God Temple. Check out the clues to determine who the owner of the watchdog is, whether it is good or evil, and then decide what to do. ”
I thought about it, and it worked. The three hands said before that they would bring AIDS tomorrow night. So these ghosts won't leave this place for a while, we just need to keep an eye on it.
When Mr. Lu saw that I agreed, he said, "Then let's go quickly." ”
The three of us were about to leave when we heard a whipping sound in the distance, as well as the cries of several people
