Chapter 1 Ghost Temple
"It's so boring!"
Xuan Xi sat in the carriage, looked at the rapidly reversing scenery outside through the window, and yawned slowly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
On the side, Chen Yutian looked at her helplessly, this is the first time she yawned today?Fifty? Or fifty-five?
"If you're really bored, why don't you go and sit with Gongsun......" Chen Yutian proposed.
Xuan Xi slowly turned his head and gave Chen Yutian a disdainful look, "Don't, I don't want to stay with a nerd and a medicine idiot......"
Chen Yutian smiled helplessly, lifted the curtain of the car window and looked at the carriage that followed behind.
Gongsun sat in that carriage.
In the carriage, except for Gongsun alone, it was stuffed with all kinds of books and medicinal materials, and Gongsun buried himself in this pile of medicinal materials and books, immersed in reading a medical book left to him by the medical saint.
It really lives up to the name of nerds and drug nerds!
Chen Yutian looked at the carriage and smiled, and couldn't help but recall what happened half a month ago in his mind.
Soon after the conclusion of the Tiger Painting Strange case, the treasure of protecting the country was officially transferred to the capital, and along with the officials who came to accept it, there was also a holy decree from the capital.
The holy decree was given to Chen Yutian, and the content was to tell him to leave immediately and return to Beijing to report on his work.
Although the holy decree was issued by the emperor himself, Chen Yutian knew that this holy decree was actually an order from Master Long Zun to go back in a hurry.
After all, in his capacity as the emperor's teacher, it is naturally very easy to ask the emperor to draw up such a holy decree.
So, Chen Yutian took Xuan Xi and Gongsun and embarked on the journey back to Beijing.
After Xuan Xi learned that he was going back to Beijing, he was very depressed.
Also, once she returns to Beijing, she is bound to return to the palace where she grew up, and she can't just run out to play.
She grew up in the palace since she was a child, and she has never been out of the palace since she was a child, and this time it was not easy to have the opportunity to leave the palace, but she didn't have enough fun outside, so she had to go back again. This kind of thing would be the same for anyone else.
Especially as the group got closer and closer to the capital, Xuan Xi became more unhappy.
Chen Yutian touched his chin, and was thinking about whether to take this girl outside often after returning to Beijing, when at this moment, the curtain of the carriage was lifted by a hand.
"My lord, it's getting late, are we resting where we are?"
A deep voice came from outside the curtain.
Chen Yutian frowned, poked his head out, and saw a middle-aged man sitting in the driver's seat of the carriage, looking at him.
This coachman, was hired by Chen Yutian from the carriage shop in Lingshui County, surnamed Lin, I heard that he has been doing this business for more than ten years, and he has been to many places in the north and south, and the style is very good.
Chen Yutian poked his head out and looked at the sky, and saw that the sky was covered by thick clouds, and there was no trace of sunlight, which was dull and suffocating.
It was already dusk.
"What villages are around here?"
Chen Yutian looked at the coachman surnamed Lin and asked.
"Nope. The coachman shook his head, "This place is close to Baishan County, and all the mountains and mountains within a radius of ten miles are barren mountains, and there are no people. ”
Chen Yutian frowned, "Then, how far is it from Baishan County, can you reach it after dark?"
The coachman continued to shake his head, "Impossible, Baishan County is ten miles away, and at our speed, it is absolutely impossible before dark. ”
Chen Yutian thought for a moment and looked at the sky again, "It's still some distance before it gets dark, so let's go full speed ahead from now on and see if there's any place to stay in front of you." Looking at the sky, I am afraid that it will rain at night. ”
The coachman nodded and continued to drive, full speed ahead.
The carriage behind followed at full speed.
Two carriages sped down the avenue, kicking up a cloud of dust.
As time passed, the sky darkened completely, and at this moment, in front of the carriage, in the thick darkness of the night, the shadow of a building faintly appeared.
"My lord, there seems to be a house in front of us, so let's settle down there. ”
The coachman finished speaking, and then the carriage sped away towards the shadow of the building.
The shadow of the building in front of me became clearer and clearer, and when I got closer, I saw that it was a temple.
However, at the same time as he saw the temple clearly, the coachman's face suddenly changed!!
He almost didn't think about it, he just grabbed the reins in his hand, and the horse pulling the carriage neighed, and the man stood up!
"Xi Yu ......"
Chen Yutian and Xuan Xi in the carriage felt the sky shake for a while, and when the carriage stopped, they hurriedly got off.
"What's going on?" asked Chen Yutian, looking at the frightened coachman.
The coachman pointed to the front in fear.
Chen Yutian looked in the direction of his finger and frowned slightly.
It was not far from the temple, and even in the night, you could clearly see the temple.
But the first time Chen Yutian saw the temple, he felt a strange aura rushing towards him.
This temple is indeed very weird.
Most of the temples are built with red bricks and white tiles, but this temple, the bricks and tiles used in its construction, are all uniformly black.
This is a temple built entirely of black bricks and tiles!
But, even more strangely, the two doors of this temple were obviously deliberately painted white, which was extremely conspicuous in the night.
In addition, the fact that the plaque of this temple does not have a single word is also very interesting.
With a black temple, a white gate, and a wordless plaque, this temple makes people feel extremely weird no matter how you look at it.
Especially at this moment, the moon is shrouded in dark clouds, and there is no light in sight, and there is a cold night wind blowing around from time to time, whirring.
In this situation, seeing this strange temple in front of you will always remind people of something unclean.
Xuan Xi looked at the strange temple in front of him, and felt that his whole body was trembling, "Senior brother, we really want to spend the night here?"
Chen Yutian looked up at the sky, the dark clouds were even thicker, and from time to time there were one or two extremely dull thunders, obviously it was going to rain.
"It's about to rain like this, and it's definitely too late to find another place to stay, so I'll have to make up here for the night. Chen Yutian reluctantly spoke.
If he had a choice, he didn't really want to spend the night in this temple. Unfortunately, this is all providential......
"Alright, let's get things in order, let's go inside. Chen Yutian looked at the two carriages parked on the side, gave an order, and then walked into the temple with Xuan Xi, who was still a little scared, and Gongsun who didn't care at all.
The two coachmen packed up the carriage a little and went inside.
"Boom ......"
After a while, there was a sudden thunderclap in the sky. The accompanying thunder sounded, and an electric light pierced the sky, illuminating the dark temple under the dark night!!
Rain, here!
It came very suddenly.
At first, it was just a drizzle, but after a while, it turned into a storm!
The fierce wind, which swept the torrential rain pouring down from the sky, fell on the earth, on the roofs, and crackled on the doors and windows.
The whole world, in an instant, became a world of rain!!
In the temple, Xuan Xi listened to the sound of rain outside that was gradually getting louder, and couldn't help but pout.
"This rain is really annoying, we have to spend the night in this ghost temple now......"
The people around them all nodded slightly in agreement.
If it weren't for this rain, even if they were to rush to Baishan County at night, it would be better than spending the night here.
Chen Yutian smiled slightly and looked at Gongsun on the side, "Mr. Gongsun, what do you think?"
Gongsun looked at Chen Yutian and smiled slightly, "My lord, the student is in this temple and finds three suspicious points. ”
"Oh? ”
Gongsun smiled slightly, and then stretched out a finger, "First, the appearance of this temple is different from ordinary temples, and it is built with black bricks and black tiles, its door is white, and there are no words on the plaque, obviously, someone should have done it deliberately for some purpose." ”
Chen Yutian nodded slightly. This can be found by almost everyone who sees this temple.
Gongsun continued to hold out a second finger.
"Second, the bricks and tiles of this temple are still relatively new, and they should have been built recently, but just now I was at the door and found that the latch of the temple gate was extremely old, which is very strange. ”
Then he held out his third finger.
"Third, and most importantly. Temple, no matter whether the incense is at its peak or not, no matter how long it has been built, as long as it is a temple, there should be incense left behind by worshipping the gods and Buddhas, but the students have already carefully checked it just now, and there is no incense in this temple!"
Gongsun said this, and suddenly a shining lightning light fell from the sky outside, and then a dull rumbling thunder suddenly sounded.
The lightning fell from the sky, illuminating this dark little temple for a moment!
"Ah......h
Immediately after, Xuan Xi's screams rang out!
