Qi Yue Wuyi

"I think Daoist Yuxuzi is right..." A female soldier next to him said weakly, "It's more comfortable to take a bath by the well in summer."

"I, I think so too..." another female soldier said.

Li Chongwen held his forehead with a headache, so how would he explain to the husbands of these female soldiers in the future... As if he thought his head was not messy enough, Peng Hu also groaned and said: "Yu Xuzi really said that! Wow! , That guy can actually say such a thing! Normally, if someone looks at his treasure, he would kill him!"

"As the saying goes, if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken and marry the dog. He will marry into our Tai family from now on. How can we do everything according to our Tai family's rules?" Taught you?Obviously you are the one who married into the Long family!Forget it, anyway, it will be Yan Bai who will have a headache at that time.

"Ahem, I said..."

"General." The soldier who was sent to ask for directions reported back, "The folks say that the city below the mountain is exactly Taiping County."

"Taiping County? Right here?" Li Chongwen raised his eyebrows, the soldier nodded, Li Chongwen sent him off with a wave of his hand, looked at Qingyun silently, and asked after a while, "Could this be...Chang Xiaoqi? "

"Chang Xiaoqi has checked everything. She has been living a simple life. Apart from secretly hiding some rouge and gouache." Peng Hu said, "Speaking of which, he used to say that he bought it. The rouge gouache was given to my sweetheart, maybe it was for my own use.”

"After all, half of him is a woman." Li Chongwen said as he took out the jade tablet from his arms, "Except for this jade tablet, I can't find anything related to Baiyun Palace."

"That's strange, the pattern on this jade tablet is not that kind of pattern." Qing Yun frowned, "Besides, it costs a lot to build a golden temple. How long has Xiaoqi been the hall master, but he won't have so much money all of a sudden."

"Well... who could it be?"

"Maybe the group of people came here to buy Chang Xiaoqi? Look at the thick dust on it, and you can tell that it has not been used for a long time." Peng Hu said.

Qing Yun shook his head: "Then Chang Xiaoqi's value is too high, no, he's not worth it, it's enough that their goal is the same as his, and if they really spend such a big project to build this thing to buy Chang Xiaoqi Xiaoqi, how do you explain Chang Xiaoqi's sudden defection in the end?"

"That's right. If someone makes something like this for me, I will definitely die for them." Peng Hu scratched his head, "But this is not right, and that is not right. What is going on with this thing?"

"It must have something to do with what happened in Taiping County back then. The reason why the Lord of Earth was changed to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva can explain everything."

"Is there any difference between the Earth Lord and the Ksitigarbha King?" Peng Hu scratched his head, he only knew Zhu Rong.

"Ksitigarbha is the ruler of the nether world. Legend has it that he made a great wish to save all the dead. Hell will not be empty or far away. That's why he is especially admired." Tianyi said, "But most people don't enshrine him. After all, ordinary people’s homes still offer some things to keep safe and seek wealth, and to enshrine Ksitigarbha, except for some ancestral halls, cemeteries, and..."

"Haunted."

"Haunted? Taiping County is haunted or is it haunted here? If Taiping County is haunted, wouldn't it be more strange to be here?"

"The terrain here is a problem. The cliff behind the temple faces Taiping County, so it is worshiped here, and the mountain is used to suppress all ghosts. I am afraid that it is not just one or two places that are haunted."

"Taiping County has had a severe plague, so it's not surprising that there are large-scale hauntings." Tianyi said, "But all of this is just speculation, let's go down and have a look."

"En." Qingyun nodded, Tianyi asked curiously: "What's wrong?"

"Goldware, bloodstains." Qing Yun said, "I don't know [-]% about Feng Shui, but I also know that since ancient times, most of the ghosts have been hunted by bronze. Bloody."

"Could it be that two groups of people did it?" Peng Hu asked, "For example, one group of people didn't want the city to be haunted, and the other group wanted to, so they came to destroy it?"

"Wouldn't it be good to just demolish the temple? There's still money to be taken." Qingyun smiled, "Let's go to the county town to have a look, as for here..."

"Two people are enough to stand guard, and there are no one here."

"I think it's better not to keep people around." Qing Yun said, "That incense burner always makes me feel bad, and no one usually comes to this place, so it's enough to keep two people in the village to watch. "

"Don't worry, what's the matter? Could it be that there are evil spirits coming here to make trouble?" Li Chongwen smiled indifferently, Qingyun waved his hand: "This is just my guess, we should not be the only ones who discovered these gold artifacts, But these gold utensils are still in good condition, I guess, the blood stained on them may be left by someone who silenced them."

"You said someone was watching this place?" Li Chongwen suddenly felt his back trembling.

"The utensils that can be taken away are covered with a layer of blood, but there is not a drop of blood in the temple. The walls are all plastered with mud, so the blood should be placed elsewhere. There is a forest next to it. There are no people around all the year round. No one knows about the dead body." Qingyun said, "Besides, there are several places in the nearby mountains that are suitable for bandits to occupy, but there is no bandit, maybe there is nothing worth grabbing nearby, or..."

"They were all killed?" Li Chongwen shuddered, "Also, let's arrange them in the village."

The wind was very strong that night. Fortunately, the gate of the temple was safe, so you can rest assured. It is made of gold. Fortunately, the space in the temple is not small. There is basically no problem with lighting a fire and staying overnight. It’s just that the horse gate called in the middle of the night It was amazing. Peng Hu went out to see it a few times, and finally his precious horse brought him in and tied it to a post. It was basically quiet in the middle of the night, only the wind kept pushing against the window.

In the early hours of the morning, Qingyun burned three sticks of incense. He always felt a little uneasy all night, so he didn't sleep well. Tianyi: "Tianyi, wake up..."

He sat up and stretched himself, but suddenly froze, he stared wide-eyed at the window above the slant, from where the sunlight came in, Tianyi rubbed his eyes and asked curiously: "Are you looking at the window?" What?"

"The window was closed last night." Qingyun said, Tianyi glanced curiously: "Maybe it was blown open by the wind."

"Won't you know when the wind blows away?"

"What do you think?"

"Someone has been here." Qingyun was talking when he saw Peng Hu rushing in screaming, "No, it's not good! All our horses are gone! Not a single one!"

"Ah? Is it because the reins are not fastened?" Li Chongwen asked in surprise. This is a big deal. Although walking down the mountain is not a problem, they still have to go to Beijing!And many things are still in the car, "Where is the carriage?"

"The horse ran away, but the cart is still there, and... the luggage is still there."

"Is the luggage still there?" Li Chongwen was puzzled by his words, Qingyun had already stepped out first, and sure enough, the place where the horse was tied was already empty outside the door, but the luggage on the horse's back was neatly arranged with.

"Sure enough, someone came last night." Qing Yun looked at Tian Yi, "Tian Yi, you lied to me!"

"I didn't lie to you." Tianyi wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak. Qingyun asked: "What's going on? What do you know?"

"I don't know anything." Tianyi turned his head away, Qingyun pursed his lips and stared at him, the two confronted each other quietly for a while, Tianyi finally said: "Go and see that village."

"The village?" Li Chongwen was a little confused, but he still sent a man there, and the man came back after a while and said, "No, it's not good, General, the village at the bottom of the mountain is gone!"

"Missing? How is this possible!" Li Chongwen asked in surprise, "Being burned or..."

"No, it wasn't burned, yes, oh, go and have a look."

A few people went out, and the village that could be seen within a few steps before was gone, not only the village was gone, but the place where the village used to be is now just a white field with overgrown weeds. Making one's scalp tingle, Li Chongwen stammered and asked, "That, that, can't it be..."

"How is it possible!" Qing Yun frowned, and then ran back. The cliff not far away could still overlook Taiping County in the distance, which was no different from what he had seen before.

"How, how is it possible..." Qingyun murmured, feeling as if someone had pushed him. He saw the scenery change rapidly, and the sound of the wind slid past his ears. He turned his head in disbelief, and looked at The sky is getting farther and farther away.

"Where is Qingyun?" Seeing Tianyi coming back alone, Li Chongwen frowned and asked, Tianyi pursed his lips and did not speak, which made Li Chongwen more confused, and he asked again: "Tianyi, where did Qingyun go? You guys Didn't we go together?"

"He fell off a cliff." Tianyi said, "The rocks under his feet are loose...I didn't catch him..."

"This..." Li Chongwen looked at him in surprise, but Tianyi ignored him, walked into the ruined temple and found a corner to sit down, Li Chongwen and others were at a loss, after discussing for a while, they decided to go down the mountain first.

Li Chongwen's injury required two people to carry it, Nanfeng was unconscious and needed someone to carry it, and Tianyi, who had been silent all this time, was at the end.The mountain road was relatively flat, but for some reason they walked back to the small temple, which completely shocked Li Chongwen.

"How did this happen? Could it be a ghost hitting the wall?" Li Chongwen asked, and Peng Hu also asked suspiciously: "Has any of you seen Tianyi Xia?"

After he reminded everyone, they realized that Tianyi had disappeared, which made people very panic. Li Chongwen asked in surprise: "Isn't he following behind all the time? Did he get separated from the team? Or let's go back the same way to have a look?"

"Help... help..." They heard someone shouting, and several people hurried over, and saw a village girl lying on the side of the road with one leg bloody, and several people went forward to rescue her.

"Girl, how are you?" Peng Hu asked, "Why are you injured so badly?"

"I was hit by a few falling stones just now. Thank you for saving my life." The village girl covered her face with her handkerchief crying, and Peng Hu asked, "Girl, do you know how to get down the mountain? We He was about to go down the mountain, but lost his way."

"You guys lost your way on the mountain?" The village girl asked in surprise, "Ah, did you see a Blood Guanyin Temple?"

"Blood Guanyin Temple?" Several people looked at me and I looked at you, with blank faces.

"That's right, a temple of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva smeared with blood." The village girl said, "It's on the mountain, you, are you... are you ghosts!"

"We are human beings, girl. To be honest, we did sleep in such a ruined temple last night. When we woke up the next day, our horses were gone. I don't know if it has something to do with it." Li Chongwen asked.

"Ah! Blood Avalokitesvara killed someone!" The girl exclaimed.
