I was surprised and asked, "Is there still a war here?" Who is at war with whom? ”

Huang Mao thought for a moment and said: "I don't know the specifics, I only learned about these things after listening to the nonsense of the brothers and sisters, don't take it too seriously, there is a lot of water here, except for the master and uncle, it is estimated that no one knows the truth of the matter, but no one dares to ask the two of them."

According to the brothers, it may have been a conflict with the sects of several other villages, and it was not until there was a big fight that the war took place. ”

As we spoke, we had been walking around the backyard for a long time, there were several acres of land in a radius here, and there were many houses, but the doors and windows were closed, and it seemed very deserted.

Except for the road under his feet, the other places in the courtyard are overgrown with weeds, and I don't know why the old man who watched the courtyard didn't clean up.

Because Yuetian was weak and couldn't walk fast, the progress of our visit to the Taoist temple was very slow. When he followed Huang Mao to the middle of the second-floor courtyard, he introduced: "The one in front is where Uncle Wang lives, and it is the old man I said about the courtyard." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, suddenly the door on the opposite side creaked open, and a scrawny old man came out of it.

This man was dressed in a gray sermon robe, his gray hair was tied on his head, his face was full of wrinkles, and his cheeks were sunken, and he looked like a terminally ill person, but when I looked at his eyes, he looked very energetic, and I said in my heart that this person did not look simple, and he definitely had kung fu in his body. Don't look at him so thin, and he looks weak on the surface, but he is very likely to have a special skill.

The level of a person's kung fu and the depth of his internal strength, you can't really see it from the appearance or even his body movements, but there is only one point, that is, the eyes, and experienced people can see how the person's kung fu is from his eyes at a glance.

Although I can't talk about how experienced, but I have been practicing martial arts for more than 20 years, and I have met many masters on the rivers and lakes, and someone has taught me how to observe a person's skills through his eyes. I don't know why such a master deigned to be here and became an old man in the hospital?

Huang Mao was also very respectful when he saw this person, and said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, it's early!" ”

Uncle Wang walked out of the room, he didn't pay attention to the yellow hair, and the expression on his face didn't change, but I suddenly found that his gaze seemed to stay on my face for a moment, and this discovery made me chuckle in my heart, what's the situation?

After a while, Uncle Wang returned to normal again, and without looking at us, he turned around and walked to the side.

Huang Mao lowered his voice as he walked: "This old man is like this, he rarely speaks, except for the master, almost everyone else he likes to ignore, even the uncle talks to him, he ignores it, and he doesn't know what's wrong." ”

"Then why are you still keeping him?" Yuetian, who had been silent beside her, suddenly opened her mouth to ask.

"Hehe," Huang Mao smiled mysteriously and said, "I don't know the reason for this, anyway, this person may have some kind of relationship with the master, he was also found by the master, and he has been living in the temple for decades." Master once said that you should respect him as you would respect yourself, and I don't know what this old guy is all about. ”

For some reason, when I remembered the look at me at the strange old man just now, I suddenly felt uncomfortable, and I couldn't help but shudder.

Returning from the backyard to the front yard, I felt a little better in my heart, how did I feel that it was very gloomy just now, although there was no sunlight here, but now it is indeed daytime, and the degree of brightness is not inferior to that of the sun, but even so, I still shudder when I think of that moment just now.

After such a round of visiting, I finally have a better understanding of this Taoist temple, and now there are about a dozen people in the temple, like Huang Mao said, in addition to the old Tao, we have three brothers and sisters, and the rest are basically the people in the temple.

Remembering that Huang Mao said yesterday that there were still ten senior brothers to run errands, I really didn't hold back and asked, what are you going to do?

"Alas!" Huang Mao frowned surprisingly when he heard my words: "It was also a few months ago when I spoke, not long after the master left, my uncle sent the senior brother to the underworld, and he hasn't come back until now." ”

"To Hades?" Once again, I was thundered by Huang Mao's remarks.

"Well," Huang Mao nodded, "Although we have irregular jurisdiction over the underworld here, we still have a lot of dealings with the underworld, just a few months ago, not long after the master left, a person came to the underworld, came to find the uncle, they didn't know what to discuss, and the uncle sent all the disciples to follow that one." ”

After listening to him, I gasped, someone from the underworld, and went to the underworld? I suddenly felt that this line was so infiltrating.

In my mind, the underworld has always existed at the same time as death, that is, going to the underworld is equivalent to death. Although the place I am in now can also be said to be the underworld, but now that I see so many people who are exactly like the yang world, and there is such a light like the sun and the day, I have never regarded this place as the real underworld.

Now, when I hear that someone from the underworld has come and gone to the underworld, I can't help but shiver. And it's so mysterious, even Huang Mao doesn't know what to do.

However, why did you leave Huang Mao behind and not let him go?

I asked the question in my heart, and Huang Mao frowned and said, "Don't talk about you, I also want to know about this, so I also asked Uncle Shi specifically, and he said, "You must keep people in the view, you can't go all of them." "I'm really not satisfied with this answer, but I can't help it, and I don't dare to ask more."

I was surprised to hear Huang Mao's words, and Yuetian next to me looked like he didn't care about it, looking left and right, and didn't know what he was looking at.

Huang Mao continued: "Two senior brothers, to be honest, although I have been staying in the temple, there will always be many things hidden from me by the master and the uncle, and the one who can know the truth is the eldest apprentice of the uncle, and it is also my senior brother, his name is Wu Ran, and he led him to go to the underworld this time.

In the Taoist temple, in addition to the master and uncle, it is Senior Brother Wu Ran who has the final say, and he is worthy of being called a senior brother, that kung fu is quite good, and he can also use a lot of spells. ”

"Huh?" I suddenly found a problem and asked, "San'er, didn't you say that Uncle Shi's kung fu is average, then why is his apprentice so powerful?" ”

Huang Mao smiled and said, "That's the case, although my ten senior brothers are nominally uncle's apprentices, they are actually taught kung fu by both of them at the same time, so you can't measure it by uncle's kung fu." (To be continued.) )
