Chapter 48: A dried corpse is found in a thousand-year-old tree
"Zhixia, tell me later!"
Looking at Zhixia's excited appearance, Lin Wangtang also guessed a few points, looked at the maid of the Wu family standing around, and ordered coldly.
"Yes, little lord!"
When Zhixia heard this, he followed Lin Wangtang's eyes and immediately understood what the master meant, so he lowered his head and controlled his emotions.
What the scar man said just now because of excitement was really shocking!
However, when I think that there is nothing going on in the courtyard of the eunuch's house, it is normal to think about it carefully.
She was so excited, probably because there was not even a hostess in Yanwang's mansion before, and she still didn't have the shock to see when she heard it!
"Let's go!"
Seeing that Wu's mother and daughter had already stepped into the Daxiong Treasure Palace, Lin Wangtang also stepped forward to follow after saying a word.
It's just that as soon as he arrived at the door of this Daxiong Treasure Hall, he just smelled the unique sandalwood fragrance of the temple, and Lin Bangtang, who had not yet raised his feet to step into the threshold, was suddenly blinded by the strong wind that blew and wrapped the dust and sand on the ground for no reason.
The fortune teller next to the door seemed to feel something, and looked up at Lin Bangtang with a pair of empty eyes.
"Girl, do you want a fortune teller?"
The low and hoarse voice was like that of an old eagle, and as soon as the words fell, a lightning bolt struck.
"Click!!"
The lightning pierced the suddenly gloomy sky, illuminating everyone present, and just as the sound fell, everyone watched as the lightning fell into the backyard of the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
"...... Uproar"
The rain fell like this, and the unprepared people were cold.
There were a few timid women, who had seen lightning at close range like today, and they screamed in fright.
"Oh no, the thousand-year-old ginkgo was struck by lightning and split in half, and the inside was ...... Inside......"
Several frightened-looking people ran out of the hall, and a few even tripped over the high threshold and fell to the ground because of their panic.
But the men got up and rushed into the rain without hesitation, regardless of the pain, as if there was some flood behind them.
The scene was so chaotic, if it weren't for Zhixia who quickly pulled Lin Wangtang, she would probably be knocked down.
"What's the matter with the little master?"
Looking at the people who ran out in a panic inside, Zhixia's face was solemn and he stood silently in front of Lin Wangtang.
Seeing this, Xiyue also hurriedly stood next to Zhixia and looked at the Daxiong Treasure Hall with some fear.
Because the sky is dark and raining, this Daxiong Treasure Hall will have time to light up the lights in the future, and from the outside, it looks like a pure place for Buddhism, but now the black hole looks like a monster waiting to eat people.
"It's fine."
Lin Wangtang looked panicked, and there was a little understanding in his eyes.
The big thing that happened in the previous life really came!
"Little master, do you want to go in and have a look?"
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people coming out, Zhixia spoke a little solemnly.
"Yes, why don't you ......"
Lin Wantang said, passed through Zhixi and the two, and strode in without hesitation.
It's just that when I passed by the position just now, I seemed to feel that when I looked at the location of the fortune teller just now, I saw that it was empty.
Seeing this, Lin Wangtang's eyes overflowed with a little doubt, and he looked around again.
If you were not mistaken, the fortune teller seems to be a blind man, how did he disappear so quickly?
"What's wrong with the little master?"
Zhixia saw Lin Wantang stop and look around, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
"Nothing, let's go!"
Lin Bangtang, who came back to his senses, looked at the Daxiong Treasure Hall in the black hole, listened to the sound of pouring rain behind him, took a deep breath of some heavy sandalwood incense, and stepped in.
In the hall, because the people were almost finished, it was a lot quieter, and it was adapted to the darkness in the room, so Lin Bangtang noticed the gods and Buddhas placed around.
or with kind eyes, or with angry eyes......
Somehow, Lin Wangtang's heart quickly calmed down, she looked at the Buddha statues around her, and a strange thought came to her mind.
I wonder if her rebirth is the mercy of these gods and Buddhas?
"King Yan is here, everyone who has nothing to do with them will retreat!"
Ye Feng's voice came from the front, interrupting Lin Wangtang's thoughts, she shook her head, as if to dispel the abnormal thoughts in her head, and walked towards the courtyard.
Out of the back door of the hall, he smelled a burning smell, Lin Bangtang raised his eyes, and saw more than a dozen people surrounding the thick ginkgo tree in half, half of which was still standing upright, and the other half of the branches and leaves seemed to occupy the courtyard.
The raindrops the size of beans hit the leaves and fell to the ground, and it was a mess.
However, these are all positions that can't compare to the front, surrounded by the Yan Wang people.
A few of the bold ones, suppressing the fear on their faces, pointed in the direction of the ginkgo tree, as if to say something.
"Little Master ......"
The rain was really heavy, and Xiyue rushed over with an umbrella, and after seeing a direction, he was so frightened that the whole person sat on the ground, looking panicked and quite embarrassed.
Seeing this, Lin Bangtang stretched out his hand to pull up the sunset, Zhixia picked up the umbrella on the ground and stood beside Lin Bangtang.
"Xiyue, if you're afraid, go and wait for me outside."
Looking at Xiyue, who was so frightened that her face turned white and she was speechless, Lin Wantang opened his mouth with some annoyance.
She had forgotten that Xiyue was just a teenage girl now, and this meeting would scare her.
"No, little lord, I ...... I'm going to protect you! ”
Facing Lin Bangtang's concerned gaze, Xiyue gritted her teeth and moved her eyes away.
Lin Wangtang, who no longer insisted, turned his gaze to the crowd.
I saw that there were many corpses stacked in the trunk of the tree, and because the lightning struck the trunk and caused the fire, some of the corpses' clothes had traces of being burned.
The corpses were layered on top of each other, each shriveled up, their thinning hair sticking to their dry skin, most of them with their mouths wide open, their expressions in pain, their torsos twisted, and some of them even without a full body.
In the current situation, it is not an exaggeration to say that hell has returned.
Lin Wangtang looked indifferent, stretched out her hand out of the umbrella, and felt the raindrops of beans hitting her hands, a little itchy and painful, but it made her sober.
If it weren't for this heavy rain, these corpses would have burned down with this ginkgo tree.
However, whether it is in the previous life or in this life, there is no such if.
"Back to the prince, there are a total of thirty-six dried corpses!"
Ye Feng's voice came again, and Lin Wantang turned his head to see Xiao Yunzhan standing under the eaves not far away.
Looking at each other, Xiao Yunzhan did not have the slightest intention of looking away, and his eyes were indifferent.
When Lin Bangtang appeared, he saw it, and her calm and indifferent from beginning to end made him can't help but have a ridiculous guess in his heart:
The appearance of these corpses, could this Lin Bangtang know?
Otherwise, with so many corpses, ordinary women would have been scared away, and the few ordinary men left behind also looked scared.
Lin Bangtang, who did not have the slightest fear in his eyes, was so out of place among these people.
