"Do you want to leave early?"
Wang Shi's experience in the past few years has made him develop an extremely cautious character, at this time the three of us have been exposed, although we see that we are just a child who has fallen behind, but we are in danger, and we must always prepare for the worst.
"Wait, without the guidance of the locals, even if we leave the village, we will only be lost in the wilderness."
Knowing the reason for the formation of the village, I was not in a hurry to leave.
Seeing that Feng Minglong and I had no intention of leaving, Master Wang opened his mouth and said, "Leaving the village is just an expedient measure, so we will stay around the village in case of accidents, and when the sun rises, we will naturally be able to distinguish the direction and then flee the mountain." ” "Your approach is sound, but you've made a crucial mistake."
I was a little helpless: "How do you know that the sun will rise in this place?"
What if it was in the dark forever?
” Wang Shi obviously didn't take into account similar situations, and the basis of his thinking was based on the premise that this was the yang world.
"So we're going to sit here and wait?
Put life and death in the hands of others.
Wang Shi replied unwillingly.
"I can't say that, in fact, even if we want to leave, we may not be able to get out of the village safely, the team that greeted the gods just now is estimated to be the living people in the village, but in addition to the living people in this village, the dead people also occupy more than half.
If you think about the coffins in those rooms, don't talk about it, just talk about the old lady in this stone building.
With so many dead bodies guarded, can we escape safely?
I had a lot of concerns, and at this time I said it in one go: "Welcoming God is very important to this village, if we act rashly and destroy the ceremony of welcoming God, I am afraid that the end will be even worse, so it is still the same sentence, wait and see what happens, and the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth." ” When I was talking to Wang Shi and them, there was a new change in the village, and when the procession was about to leave the village, it suddenly stopped, and the sound of gongs and drums gradually weakened, and only the terrible sound of suona could be heard lingering over the entire village.
Immediately after that, something that no one expected happened, Lu Shan, who was dressed differently, was kicked out of the team, and four or five stout women walked back with her.
"What's going on?"
They soon came to the door of the stone building and shouted some local dialects into the stone building.
"Do you understand what that means?"
Feng Minglong looked at me and Wang Shi: "Listening to the tone, I guess we are not welcome." ” I frowned, and with my judgment eye, I saw that the child who had fallen behind was hiding behind several women, mixed in with the group, and it was clear that he had told the truth.
"I don't know what they're talking about, but it's a bit strange that only a few peasant women came, and the men from the village didn't, and it hasn't gotten to the worst yet."
My suspicions were soon confirmed, and the Two-Faced Woman was pressed into the house by two women, the only one in the procession who was not wearing a mask.
"There are few men in the village, and the clan elders want you to follow the procession to welcome the gods to carry the coffin in the temple."
Lu Shan's words flickered, as if he was deliberately hiding something.
"Carrying the coffin?
Aren't you going to welcome God?
Why is it related to the coffin again?
No matter how much I asked, Lu Shan refused to speak, but the peasant women occasionally spoke a few words in a dialect that they didn't understand at all, and judging from the tone of their voices, it didn't seem like a good thing.
After a few minutes of stalemate, the three of us outsiders chose to compromise, and the people had to bow their heads under the eaves.
A couple of peasant women dressed us in brightly colored robes and led us to catch up with the procession.
After we integrated into the team, the noisy music team that walked in front began to beat gongs and drums again, and the mournful sound with the undulating red and white soul sedan chair looked particularly weird.
"What's this called?
forced to carry the coffin, causing a bad luck.
"The three of us outsiders walked together with Lu Shan, and we didn't fit in with the silent dancing crowd around us.
The long procession quickly left the village, climbed along the rugged mountain road to the halfway point of the mountain, and finally stopped in front of a Buddhist temple.
Low and dilapidated, gloomy and damp, with mottled moss on the walls and green tiles on the roofs, this temple is estimated to have existed longer than the village at the foot of the mountain.
"Overgrown with weeds, the temple is dilapidated like this, obviously lacking care, but looking at the importance that the locals attach to welcoming the gods, it seems that this dilapidated temple has a high status in their hearts.
This is strange, why do they obviously revere the temple in their hearts, but let the temple be dilapidated and not take care of it?
"I was a little puzzled by the attitude of these people in the village towards the temple, and I couldn't figure out what they really thought.
It didn't take long for an old man to say a few words to Lu Shan, Lu Shan nodded in understanding, and then brought the three of us outsiders to the door of the temple: "The clan elder asked you to go in and carry the coffin, be careful, don't disturb the gods." ” "Just the three of us?"
I froze in place, and the procession of welcoming the gods crowded outside the temple, in a circle, they were wearing bright clothes and paper masks, and they quietly watched the three of us outsiders: "Okay, let's go." ” The temple is not large, but the threshold is very high, the mountain is steep, and a total of seven stone steps are arranged outside the temple.
"The houses in the whole village have not built thresholds, but this dilapidated temple has built thresholds?"
I can understand why the temple is dilapidated and unmaintained, and this place is probably not accessible to ordinary villagers.
Step on the steps and enter the temple, which is a small courtyard of more than ten square meters, paved with blue bricks on the ground, and overgrown with weeds on both sides.
Continuing inward, through the small courtyard, you will enter the main hall, which looks more dilapidated than the outside, with broken tiles on the roof, large holes leaking, cracked walls, and shocking cracks everywhere.

In front of the Buddha statue is an offering table, and there are three ancient characters written on the table, good and evil Buddha.
"This is the real name of the Two-Faced Buddha?
Is he called the Buddha of Good and Evil?
I picked up my phone and recorded all this, and after talking for so long, it was only now that I found the other party's real name: "Good and evil, what does this name mean?"
Or is it just a name that the villagers themselves have come up with?
” "Mr.
Lu, it is disrespectful to take pictures with your mobile phone in the temple, and it will bring disaster to yourself."
"Twelfth, hurry up and help, I feel uncomfortable all over this broken temple, as if I have been being stared at."
Wang Shi and Feng Minglong found the coffin that Lu Shan said behind the Buddha statue, with a large front end and a small back end, in the shape of a ladder, which looked like a half-sided log.
"How to lift?
I heard that carrying the coffin is also very particular. ” The coffin was placed diagonally behind the Buddha statue with a thick layer of dust on it, and it is not known how long it had been thrown here.
"You two carry the head of the coffin, and I carry the tail of the coffin alone."
I practiced the Miao Zhen Fa and Collapse Fist, and my physical fitness was far better than that of ordinary people, so I was in charge of the end of the coffin alone.
"Lift it directly?"
Feng Minglong and Wang Shi were reluctant to move when they looked at the wooden coffin on the ground, in their eyes, the coffin was very unlucky, and the coffin in the deserted temple itself was an unbelievable thing.
"The walls of the Buddhist temple are low, why don't we just climb over the wall and escape?
This is beyond the boundaries of the village, and this is a rare opportunity!
” Master Wang said to me in a consultative tone, I was also a little moved in my heart, and I was about to discuss the feasibility of the plan, when the mobile phone of the underworld show in my palm rang softly.
"Ding!"
At this time, a text message was sent to the mobile phone mailbox.
"Wait a minute."
I opened the mailbox and flipped through the message, and there was only a short line in it - "Optional task 3: steal the relics of good and evil, and reward ten points for successful tasks!"
Get a live stream exemption!
” "Good and evil relics?"
The rewards of this optional task are extremely rich, almost comparable to the task of killing Lu Xing in the eighth live broadcast, I stared at the phone screen for a long time and was silent: "If you don't come sooner or later, you just released it after we entered the temple, could it be that this relics of good and evil are hidden in the temple?"
Na Luxing wanted to take the train so hard, was it just to come here to take away the relics?
” The tablet of the Double-Faced Buddha reads Good and Evil Buddha, and this Good and Evil Relic must also be related to the Double-Faced Buddha.
"Mr.
Lu, it's better to say something about whether to leave or leave you."
Feng Minglong and Wang Shi both looked at me anxiously, and after a long delay, they were afraid that it would arouse the suspicion of the villagers outside.
"There's no hurry, I'm going to find something here first."
