Chou Chou listened to Qian Yan's words, and directly probed his divine sense to the Lingguang Temple on the side of Pingyuan County.

Although it doesn't know much about the eight characters of birth, it has heard that some ghosts have grown to a certain level and will attack some people with special personalities.

And the so-called special personality is seen through the eight characters of birth.

If there is a problem with the Lingguang Temple itself, then it can explain why so many children died without any ghostly energy.

Even if a child's soul is pure, it is not easy to have resentment, the basic ghost qi still has to be there, even if it dissipates or the soul returns to the underworld, it will take time, this is a recent thing, it is impossible to lose traces so quickly.

If these are the games made by those monks from beginning to end, then there is nothing impossible, they can send away the soul excessively, or they can use things like magic weapons to detain them.

Soon, Ugly Chou made a discovery, and he said to Tilt Yan: "Guess what I found in Lingguang Temple, there is an underground altar there!" ”

Tilt Yan: "It can't be the same old ghost as the one over there in the Prayer Village, right?" ”

Ugly: "No, it's not a cemetery, there are no monsters and old ghosts, it's just an altar built by people, and it's not a lot of years, it's only a few decades, and it can't be compared with the time that Lingguang Temple has existed."

The Lingguang Temple should have been built in the Tang Dynasty, and it has much more heritage than the Qingyuan Temple, but the monks inside have some problems, especially the abbot, and the altar is under the abbot's meditation room. ”

As soon as she heard this, she was even less sleepy, and asked curiously, "What's the problem?" Is it a demon monk? ”

Secretly made an altar, it can't be an enemy spy in order to collect information, it must be some kind of gods, ghosts and ghosts.

Ugly: "It's true, that abbot is a half-demon." ”

Tilt Yan: "Half-demon! ”

Is it the kind she understands? That's really a veritable demon monk.

"Yes, it's a half-demon born from the combination of humans and demons, but his demon bloodline is already very scarce, it shouldn't be the first generation, and I don't know how many generations later.

Even so, there is still a unique habit of the demon clan in the body, and he likes to eat people.

Just as humans like to eat animals, humans are also the best blood food for demon races, and they can even extract energy from them. ”

Qian Yan was silent for a while before she said, "Those children's hearts and livers were all taken out by the abbot?" Just to eat? ”

Ugly: "Not only that, after those children were buried, the bodies were secretly dug up by the so-called monk, and there were several fresh children's skeletons in the altar, which are probably those children." ”

Qian Yan couldn't help but gasp, this is not even letting go of the corpse.

Then she said with some confusion: "Then why didn't you just take those children away in the first place?" The families of those children who disappeared directly can also be found, and what does it mean to deliberately leave the bodies of those missing hearts and livers? ”

Ugly: "This is going to be checked, it is said that the half-demon eats people without engaging in these flowers, just eat directly, there must be other intentions in such a toss, I'll observe it again." ”

Tilt Yan: "Then you keep an eye on it, but it's better not to let it hurt people again, if you can, you can kill it directly before you hurt people again." ”

No matter what, she still feels that human life is at stake, and no matter whether she can find out the cause or not, she can't let other children suffer again.

Ugly nodded, "I know, now that I've discovered it, I definitely won't give it another chance to do it." ”

Although it can't rely on merit to cultivate, it doesn't exclude doing some good deeds, which doesn't affect it much, but it does benefit to Tilt Yan.

With merit, this world will welcome her more, and her usual luck will get better and better.

Qian Yan said with some curiosity: "What is the demon form of that half-demon?" ”

Ugly: "It's a moonlit night wolf, a kind of wolf that lives here, it should be cultivated into a human form by fate, and then it combines with people and has offspring." ”

Qian Yan: "Then you said that the moonlit night wolf demon is still there?" Could it be the altar that was made to resurrect the ancestors? ”

Ugly: "That altar doesn't seem to be used for resurrection, because there is nothing about wolf demons in it, and to be resurrected, even if there is no body, there should be a soul parasitic or something."

The altar seemed to be used to refine something, but there was nothing to be seen there, so it should have been put away.

Let's wait and see if it will come to use the altar, and then we will probably know. ”

Qian Yan nodded, "Then it's hard for you, we estimate that we will stay here for two days, and if we don't find anything during this period, we can go directly to Pingyuan County, and we have to go there anyway." ”

Now that you know that the problem lies in Lingguang Temple, Chouchou doesn't need to pay attention to Shanggang Village anymore, just put your divine consciousness in Lingguang Temple.

Ugly: "Okay, I'll watch, you go to sleep first, I'll tell you if there's a situation." ”

Although Qian Yan still didn't feel sleepy at this time, after all, she had just learned such a big secret, but it was not good to sleep too late, lest she not be able to get up tomorrow morning, and it would not be good to get up too late at someone's house.

He closed his eyes and turned over to find a comfortable position, counting the sheep and forcing himself to sleep.

Not to mention, this method really worked for her, and she fell asleep in a daze after a while.

The next morning, she was woken up by the money licking, and when she woke up, she saw that this guy was licking the hand she had put on the pillow.

Stretched out his hand and stroked the thick soft fur on his body, looked up at the direction of the door, the doors and windows were over there, and the sky outside could be seen at a glance.

The sky outside is already a little cloudy, you don't need to look at the watch to see that it should be seven or eight o'clock, there is no sound outside, Zhang Mancang and his family should not have gotten up yet.

She didn't bother to get up, so she turned over and continued to lie down with the money, ready to wait for them to get up and then get up with her.

"Ugly, there's nothing new to discover over there, right?"

I can't sleep anyway, so I'll just chat with Chou.

Ugly: "No, no one entered the underground altar at night, and the abbot had been meditating in his meditation room, looking like he was practicing. ”

Qian Yan complained to the ugly ugly: "It seems that Buddhism in this world is not very good, such an evil half-demon is in the temple, it can be regarded as under the nose of the Buddha, and it has not been discovered." ”

Ugly and ugly laughed out loud by what she said, "Buddhism was prevalent in the Tang Dynasty, although it was a foreign sect, there were still some monks who were enlightened at that time, and then entered the troubled times, and many capable people in Buddhism disappeared, and I don't know if they are dedicated to cultivating, or they simply don't want to be involved in the change of the dynasty to escape the world."

Anyway, the rest are mostly people who deceive the world and steal their reputation, and they don't have any real skills, just to cheat money.

Anyway, many people burn incense and worship the Buddha just to seek peace of mind, sometimes the spirit is not a mental effect, and not too many people really pursue it, so many temples have also survived to this day and still have incense. ”

Tilt Yan: "Then it is widely spread here, the monk of Lingguang Temple exorcises ghosts from the county commander's family, can't it also be directed and acted by them?" ”

Ugly: "I don't know about this, the county commander's side can't see anything now, which means that there is no clue, so I can only go there and take a look." ”

Having said that, Chou Chou also thinks that Tilt Yan's statement is quite likely.

The demon monk of Lingguang Temple may be in order to have a good relationship with the new county magistrate, and even the county magistrate respects it, and Lingguang Temple's heel in Pingyuan County is more stable, and it is more convenient to do something.

Therefore, there is a high probability that he directed and acted in such a play for the county order to see, and also for the people of the entire plain county.

And once something happens next, what unnatural phenomena everyone encounters, the first thing that comes to mind is to ask for help from Lingguang Temple.

And for the murderer who did these things, he would not think of the head of Lingguang Temple.

This is the inherent thinking of people, and most of them do not think that the person who saves them is the person who harms them.

Of course, conspiracy theorists are not without them, but they are still very few.

After all, if there is a conspiracy theory, the other party has to be profitable, and the monks of Lingguang Temple go to help people exorcise ghosts, or do things, just like coming to Shanggang Village, people don't charge money, at most they have a meal at the villagers' houses and let them entertain them.

People like this who come to help you almost for free, do you think that they are the ones who harm you? No, so it's also their best protective color.

Qian Yan actually thinks the same way, thinks like this, and it's the same whether she says it or not, anyway, they are not judges, so they don't have to ask for any evidence, so as long as they think like this, they should be on guard when the time comes.

As for telling the county ordinance or the people of the whole county, there is no need at all.

It's not that they want to help the abuse, help cover or anything, but what they think is that as long as they find out that he is doing evil, no matter whether they can find other reasons or not, they will kill him directly.

As long as the monks who participated in the evil work on the Lingguang Temple are quietly taken care of, it is better than announcing the public execution of them.

People still have to have faith, especially some ordinary people living at the bottom, because of the hardships of life, they like to put their spirit on faith the most.

If these crimes are made public, and they know that the monks in these temples are all evil people, then they will lose their trust in the temples and Buddhas.

Until a new faith emerges, these people will be at a loss and will despair at the slightest encounter.

If there is no sustenance in the heart, it is not a good thing for them, and it will also greatly reduce the prestige of the county order of Pingyuan County in the eyes of the people.

At least listen to what Zhang Mancang and the three said, the county order is still a good official, not a corrupt official, this kind of official should not toss him away.

As for giving justice to those children or people who have died, how can I say it, death is dead, and people cannot be resurrected after death.

Don't say that she is cold-blooded, people still have to look forward to life, and getting rid of the first evil can be regarded as revenge for them, even if the evil deeds are made public? Not only did they not survive, but their families received little compensation.

Since those people have already decided that their children died at the hands of ghosts, in fact, it is not wrong, and dying at the hands of half-demons is not much different from ghosts, then let them always think so.

In addition, the so-called monk came up with a "way" for them, and he would definitely not do anything to them again, which gave them sustenance in their hearts, and their lives would only be more stable in the future.

When there was a rooster crow outside, there was also a sound of rustling in the cave next door, so it should be that Zhang Mancang and his family got up.

Qian Yan looked at Zhang Chunhua, mother and son, who were sleeping quite soundly, and got up as lightly as possible, put on the clothes on the quilt, and got off the kang with money.

Now there is no residual heat on the kang, after all, no one gets up in the middle of the night to burn, and the fire in the stove below has long been extinguished.

However, it is not cold in the cave, it should still be kept at more than ten degrees, and the closure of this cave is quite good.

He opened the door lightly, came out quickly and closed the door again, and then shivered, looking at the scene outside and widening his eyes.

She had been chatting with Ugly Ugly before, and she hadn't probed her mind outside, so she didn't know it was snowing outside.

I looked at Meng Mengliang before, and it was estimated that it was because of the reflection of the snow, so it should have been earlier than she estimated at that time, so Zhang Mancang and his wife didn't get up.

And even now, the sun is not about to be born, it is estimated that it is only seven or eight o'clock, because the snow outside seems to be much brighter than usual.

At this time, the door of the cave next door was also opened, and Zhang Mancang and Sister-in-law Zhang walked out of it.

At a glance, I saw Qian Yan standing at the door, and hurriedly whispered: "Sister, why don't you sleep for a while, it's still early, just call you after I finish breakfast, it's very cold outside, go back to the house quickly." ”

Then I saw the scene outside, "Ah, it's snowing again, I saw that it was very bright outside, and I thought it was not early, but I didn't expect it to snow again, and this day is getting colder and colder day by day." ”

Qian Yan took a few steps forward, walked up to them and said, "I slept early yesterday, and I can't sleep now." Did Brother Zhang go to work in the town after breakfast for a while? ”

"yes, it's just the right time to go after breakfast."

Zhang Mancang nodded and said, he usually goes to the town in the morning after having breakfast with his wife and children, and it is useless to go too early, and there are few people in the carpenter shop who come to the door early in the morning.

He went to catch up with the work he had taken before, and he couldn't go too early, the master slept in the shop, and going too early would disturb his rest.

Tilt Yan continued: "At that moment, we are in a hurry, and I am also going to buy some things, if I can make a sled today, I may be able to try it on the carriage when I come back." ”

When Zhang Mancang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes! No matter how good it is, no matter how exquisite the drawings are, you have to try it to know if it can be used.

And it happened to be snowing today, and the snow hasn't stopped yet, and there are still snowflakes, so it should be able to rain for a while, and at night the snow will definitely be thicker, so you can try it.

If he could, he would have made the sled that was slippery on his feet, so that he wouldn't have to go out in the snow with a deep foot or a shallow foot.
