One minute...... Two minutes...... Three-minute ......

Shen Jiming's palms were dripping with cold sweat, but nothing still appeared, he slowly retreated to his backpack and squatted down, one hand holding the earthen gun aimed at the gate of the broken temple, and the other hand fumbled to unzip and prepare to take out his mobile phone.

"Whew~" Suddenly, a bush of thorns on the side shook, and in the afterglow, Shen Jiming saw a black mist suddenly emerge, like a ghost turning into a black wind and rushing towards him.

"Bang~" Shen Jiming pulled the trigger in fright, a stream of fire erupted from the muzzle, and in the sound of fluttering, a large number of thorn branches and leaves broke and flew out, and in the billowing white smoke, the black shadow pounced in front of Shen Jiming.

"Puff~"

Shen Jiming hurriedly smashed the black shadow with the backpack in his hand, and all the things in the backpack flew out of the zipper, and under the contact between a bronze button-like thing and the black shadow, a stream of blue light directly erupted, and the light and shadow of a two-short and two-long hexagram symbol lit up in the air.

"Kyushu?" It seemed that a frightened voice seemed to sound in Shen Jiming's mind, and as the thorns around him shook wildly, the black shadow instantly turned into a black mist and disappeared without a trace.

"Who's pretending to be a ghost, come out quickly!" Shen Jiming was terrified, feeling that his legs were trembling and he was almost unsteady, but the surroundings had returned to the same situation as before, and only the sound of the mountain wind could be heard in the silence.

"Woo~~" The mobile phone that fell on the ground suddenly vibrate, Shen Jiming quickly picked it up and saw that it was his father calling, so he shook and swiped the screen with his hand a few times before connecting.

"Jiming, where are you? Are you in the Stone Ladder Temple?" came my father's anxious voice on the phone.

"Dad, hurry up and call a few more people up, Zhang Sanye and the village chief have fainted!" Shen Jiming hurriedly said.

"Don't run around, we'll be here soon!" Shen Jianting quickly hung up the phone, and Shen Jiming also picked up Liu Gengmin's machete from the grass and held it tightly in his hand.

Ten minutes...... Twenty minutes......

Listening to the footsteps and shouts not far from the mountain, Shen Jiming's extremely nervous heart slowly relaxed.

After a while, four or five middle-aged people from the village rushed up, and Shen Jianting ran at the front panting, his face full of frightened and miserable white.

"Jiming, are you okay!" Shen Jianting took his son to look at it a few times, and then hurriedly rushed to Zhang Sanye's side, touched the front of his nose and breathed a sigh of relief, and scolded loudly: "What's the matter? Didn't you tell you not to come up?"

"Jianting, don't be in a hurry to roar, hurry up and get my third uncle and the cultivators down first!" Zhang Dejun, the nephew of Zhang Sanye, said anxiously.

"Yes, yes, hurry up, this temple must be haunted and unlucky!" The other few hurriedly helped Liu Gengmin and Zhang Sanye up, and then packed up the machete and turned around and went down the mountain.

Shen Jiming finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked around his eyes, found the bronze button that fell in the grass, quickly picked it up and put it in his pocket, and then picked up some other things that fell on the ground and put them back in his backpack, and then went to pick up the five gourds.

"What are you picking up, let's go!" Shen Jianting hurriedly pulled his son's arm and shouted.

But Shen Jiming still stuffed the five gourds into his backpack, and then followed him down the mountain.

At this time, five or six people came up from the bottom of the mountain, because the steps down were steep and slippery, and when passing by the cliff, everyone could only support each other and grasp the branches next to them, and after the two of them came down the mountain, they were all sweating profusely, but they didn't dare to stay, and quickly carried the two into the village infirmary.

"Dad, how did you know that I was in the Stone Ladder Temple?" Standing outside the infirmary, Shen Jiming couldn't help but ask Dad.

Shen Jianting frowned and said, "How can I not hear such a loud sound as an earthen gun, I heard the sound coming from the middle of the mountainside, and I guessed that you have been up in the past few days!"

"Jiming, what happened to the Stone Ladder Temple?" At this time, Zhang Dejun came out of the infirmary, his face was very ugly.

Shen Jiming told Liu Gengmin and Zhang Sanye about going up to pick gourds, but he hid the fact that he saw the black shadow, and only said that he was picking gourds on the tree, and then he heard a gust of wind blowing, and Liu Gengmin and Zhang Sanye fainted.

"Jianting, do you say that the stone ladder temple is really haunted, this has happened several times, will our village be unsafe at the bottom of the mountain, and spread out, I am afraid that the people in the village will not dare to go out alone in the future!" said a middle-aged man with slightly gray hair smoking a cigarette.

"Yes, if there is really something unlucky, you must find someone to get it, I heard that there is an old Taoist priest in Zhangjiawan in Qianqian Town who is very powerful, should we spend some money to invite you to come and have a look!" said another middle-aged man.

Next, a group of people gathered outside the infirmary and said each sentence, everyone with a serious look on their faces.

Shen Jiming is also very emotional, now there is not a single young man in the countryside, and all the rest are this group of old men in their forties and fifties, although their bodies are still relatively healthy, but compared to young people in their twenties and thirties, they are still a lot worse.

However, Shen Jiming didn't intervene in what the adults said, but he had some thoughts of his own in his heart.

At that time, he felt a sudden feeling of dizziness in the tree, and the gray mist in his head seemed to flicker, and almost at that time, Liu Gengmin and Zhang Sanye fainted.

Later, the black shadow appeared and tried to attack him, but was frightened away by a gossip light emanating from the bronze button that fell out of the backpack.

What exactly is a dark shadow?

What exactly are bronze buttons?

And he seems to have heard the word Kyushu, what is Kyushu, does it mean a mysterious organization?

When Shen Jiming returned home, he was still thinking about these things in his mind.

The village head, Liu Gengmin and Zhang Sanye, both came to their senses one after another, and they didn't know anything about what happened, and they said that they suddenly fell into a coma with a buzz in their heads, and they seemed to see something, but they couldn't say whether they really saw it or hallucinated.

And Shen Jianting and a group of middle-aged people also discussed a charter, and decided to notify the police station in the town of this matter, asking them to send someone to take a look, and at the same time call the old Taoist priest mentioned earlier, ready to do a ritual to exorcise ghosts.

Shen Jiming knew that the matter of the black shadow was probably beyond the comprehension of the police at the police station, and as for the old Taoist...... , Shen Jiming naturally didn't believe it much, because he suspected that it was not a ghost at all, but something with supernatural abilities.
