Because of the delay for the night, I decided to hurry back to the village as soon as it was dawn.

I slowly got up from the bed after the rooster crowed, and suddenly I felt a faint light in front of me.

I was startled, and I hurriedly opened the door, only to find that the sun had just risen.

I've been blind for fifteen years, and I've regained my sight!

I don't know why, but I'm still overjoyed for a while.

I had to go back to the village and tell the village chief the good news.

I hurried back to the village, Cui Ying hadn't gotten into the sedan chair yet, I barely caught up.

"Changsheng, why did you come here so late?"

I was a little embarrassed to talk about what happened last night, after all, Yamamura's thinking was still very conservative, so I only told him the news that my eyes had regained my sight.

The village chief was shocked when he heard this.

"What, can you see that?"

I immediately proved to him that the village chief was overjoyed and said that it was a double blessing today.

On the night after Cui Ying married into the Sun family, the village chief was so happy that he had to keep me down to drink.

We drank until late at night, and then fell asleep.

The next morning, I was woken up by a knock on the door, and when I opened the door, I saw several villagers in a hurry.

"Ouch, Village Chief Xu, something happened to your in-laws!"

"What?"

Then the village chief and I hurried to Sun's house in the east of the village, and both of us were stunned.

I saw that the groom of the Sun family, including his parents, all died overnight.

What's even more terrifying is that the human skin of these three people has been stripped of something, and only three skinless corpses are left standing in the courtyard wearing bamboo poles.

And the bride Cui Ying, who had just married, was nowhere to be found.

After this happened, the whole village exploded.

Some people say that the Sun family married a virgin who sacrificed to the mountain god back then, which was blasphemy against the mountain god and was retaliated against.

Cui Ying disappeared after the wedding night, and was taken away by the mountain god.

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill down their spines, saying that it was the village chief who harmed the Sun family, causing the Sun family to be destroyed.

After this great joy, the village chief turned to great sorrow, and was in a hurry for a while, suffered a stroke and fainted, and died within three days.

And I, a boy who had sacrificed to the mountain god, also became a plague god for a while, and the people in the village did not dare to have any contact with me, for fear of being retaliated by the mountain god like the Sun family.

I was so grief-stricken that I first buried the village chief, and then planned to bury the three members of the Sun family.

Because the Sun family died too strangely, no one dared to collect their bodies.

In a few days, the skinless corpse probably stinks, but I didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, it was our family who harmed the Sun family.

But when I came to the front yard of Sun's house, I didn't see the three skinless corpses.

At this time, the decorations such as the wedding stickers and red lanterns of the Sun family have not been removed, and it looks very strange in this dead atmosphere.

I dared to go into the house and looked around, but there was still no body.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Enter the temple to worship God, enter the house and call people, boy, do you understand the rules?"

I jerked my head back and saw a very sloppy middle-aged man sitting in the rocking chair next to me.

He had a thin physique, his clothes were in tatters, his hair was sparse on his top, and he had many pimples.

"Who are you?"

He didn't answer, just handed me three sticks of bamboo sticks.

I realized that it was not appropriate for me to go straight to the murderous house, so I hurriedly lit incense and worshipped.

He crossed Erlang's legs and said, "This is like words, I am a distant relative of the Sun family."

I wanted to come over to visit my relatives, but I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing. ”

That's when I noticed that there were three coffins parked in the back room, and it seemed that this guy had already collected the bodies.

I thought that since someone helped the Sun family with the funeral, I didn't have to interfere anymore, bowed to him, and turned around to leave.

"Wait, I heard that you are the boy who was used to worship the mountain god in Huanggu Village fifteen years ago?"

"It's me, what's wrong?"

He smiled and shook his head.

"If you mess around, it will only get more and more messy."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, it's pure nonsense about your village sacrificing to the mountain god, because there is no bullshit mountain god on the White Ape Mountain."

"What nonsense are you talking about, if it weren't for the sacrifice of the mountain god, I don't know how many people would have died in the village back then!"

The leper laughed.

"Hahahaha, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided.

Fifteen years ago, there was no sacrifice to the mountain god in your village, so the rain should have stopped, and it should have fallen, which are completely different things.

It's just that you fools are moved by yourself, thinking that sacrificing two little dolls can quell the natural disaster. ”

I still didn't believe his words, and said, "If there is no mountain god, what is going on with the Sun family, and my sister-in-law, where is she going?" ”

"Hmph, let me tell you the truth, this is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster!"

As he spoke, he led me into the inner room, opened the coffin, pointed to the skinless corpse and said, "Look at it, although these three people have been skinned, the tendons and veins on their bodies are unscathed.

Being able to peel off human skin so accurately, as far as I know, only those divine sticks of the Pavilion Sect have this skill. ”

The Zhongge Sect mentioned by the leper is actually a branch of Taoism.

Taoism has evolved into five schools from ancient times to the present, namely Sutu, Mai, Zhongge, Quanzhen, and Maoshan.

Among them, the main focus is on fortifications, foundation building, and feng shui.

Mai majored in divination and physiognomy.

Zhongge Sect and Quanzhen both advocate self-cultivation, but there is a certain difference, Zhongge Sect focuses on cultivating immortals in order to achieve immortality, while Quanzhen is more focused on self-cultivation, martial arts, and the art of war.

Finally, there is Maoshan, who majored in Confucianism and Fu Gong Taoism.

Of course, these are all things that I later learned.

The leper explained to me what the Sect was, but I still didn't quite understand.

"The Sun family and these guys have no grievances, what are they killing people for? And why did they take my sister? ”

The leper said: "Then there is something to say about this, according to legend, there is a princess tomb built during the Ming Dynasty in the Sanguang Cave behind the White Ape Mountain.

In addition to gold, silver and jade and other burial goods in the tomb, there is also a book "Penetrating the Mystery of the Sky" written by the generous scholar Liu Bowen.

This book is a treasure to the group of gods of the Pavilion Sect, and they have been looking for the whereabouts of this book.

Decades ago, they determined that the princess's tomb was in the Sanguang Cave in the White Ape Mountain, and a group of people hurriedly entered to rob the tomb, but they were broken inside.

According to the only survivor, it was in the cave that they ran into the haunting ghosts of the princess's tomb.

This powerful ghost is unusual, and it is difficult for ordinary Dao techniques to deal with.

Later, the group of gods made many attempts, but they failed to enter the tomb.

If you have to say that there is a mountain god in White Ape Mountain, it is a powerful ghost in the ancient tomb. ”

When I heard him say this, I was stunned.

Because at this moment, I remembered the Zhu Moyu who spent the night with me a few days ago.

She asked me to go to the Sanguang Cave in White Ape Mountain to propose to her in March, and said that if I dared to miss the appointment, she would make the rest of my life worse than death.

I thought that the Sanguang Cave in White Ape Mountain was just an ordinary place name, but I didn't expect it to be an ancient tomb.
