When I was a Taoist

Chapter 635 Personal Interests
Since there is no hope of going to the villager's house to answer the phone, we can only go to a small shop to see if there is a public phone that can be used, but we don't hold much hope in our hearts.But unexpectedly, when we finally came to the end of the village, we actually saw an open shop.

"The villagers here don't lack anything, so why do they open shops here?" Tingting asked curiously.

"Maybe it's a personal interest, or maybe it's because some things are temporarily unavailable and you have to buy them from the store."

When we walked into the store, we found that the area was small, but there were everything in it, and each category of goods was the most expensive of the same variety, which opened our eyes.In the shops, Moutai is treated like useless bricks and left everywhere, which shows how rich the villagers here are.

"Is anyone there?" I tried to shout, but there was no voice in the store to respond to me.We walked around the store, and we didn't find anyone guarding the store.

"As expected of the richest man's village, the things here can be said to be taken casually, even the boss doesn't bother to look around here." Wentian casually picked up a bottle of wine and opened it.After taking a sip, he grinned and said, "It's still a top-notch guy. If I can leave this ghost place alive, I must take all the wine here."

"I didn't expect him to be an alcoholic." Tingting glanced at him and said angrily.

I smiled, turned around and went to the counter to find out if there was a public phone.Not to mention, I found a desk phone, but it seems to have been here for a long time, it is covered with dust, and I don't know if it will still work.

But a dead horse is a living horse doctor, and this is the only way for us to communicate with the outside world.I picked up the phone and tried to listen, and was surprised and delighted to find that there was actually a voice on the other end of the microphone.Apparently, the phone still works!
I motioned for everyone to be quiet, then quickly dialed Fanchen's number, nervously listening to the "beep, beep" sound on the other end of the microphone, and kept shouting in my heart, hoping that Fanchen could quickly connect the phone.

"squeak……"

The sound just rang twice, and suddenly there was a mouse-like cry from the other end of the microphone, which made my eardrums hurt, and I subconsciously threw the microphone on the counter beside me.

"What's going on?" Wang Tian and the others hurriedly surrounded me when they saw my appearance, and asked.

I rubbed my eardrums, frowned and said, "Something's wrong. Just as the call was dialed, there was noise on the other end. It's okay, I'll try again."

After speaking, I picked up the microphone again, only to find that there was no sound in the microphone!No matter how I operate, I can no longer hear any sound!

"Oops!"

My heart sank, and I hurriedly picked up the landline and looked it up and down, and found that the plug of the telephone line was not broken, and there was no problem with the landline itself.From this point of view, the only possible problem is that the other end of the telephone line was cut!

"What's the matter, do you want to scare people to death?" Wentian took another sip of wine, looked at me with some dissatisfaction and said.

"The telephone line was cut from the outside, and it was just now." I said with a gloomy face as I slammed the microphone on the ground.

"How is it possible? There was no one outside. We saw it with our own eyes. And it took less than a minute. Even if some villagers saw us and wanted to stop them, they wouldn't cut the telephone line so quickly." One person When I asked a question, I looked for the voice, and it was one of the two who took us to the ancestral hall.

"Who told you that only human beings can cut the telephone line." Wang Tian said abruptly.

As soon as I finished speaking, I couldn't help shivering, and somehow felt that the whole store had become much colder.

"Let's go, we can't stay here anymore." I don't know why, I started to have some palpitations in my heart, and I always felt that something was staring at us secretly, which made me feel uncomfortable all over.

"Should we just give up like this? Why don't we look for it along the phone line, maybe it's just a loose connection." The two guys were obviously scared out of their wits, and they insisted on contacting the outside world.But don't say it's me, even Wuyou would never agree, he insisted on pulling them to leave the store.

Just before leaving, I glanced inside the store, where a mirror hung, facing the main entrance, which is a Feng Shui no-no and symbolizes bad luck.Immediately afterwards, I clearly saw a ghost image flashing in the mirror, which was exactly the same as what I saw in the old man's house!
"Come on!"

I let out a low cry, pulled Tingting straight out of the store, and ran towards the guest house.Everyone else felt baffled and didn't follow up for a while.But I ignored them, I just rushed directly to the guest house with Tingting and stopped.

"What happened? Did you see it again!" Tingting asked, frowning tightly.

I sighed silently, and said in a deep voice: "It's only the first day, and we are getting more and more dangerous. One person has already disappeared in the ancestral hall, and we can't drag it on any longer. We must find a way to get rid of the spirit devouring array in the ancestral hall." !"

A few minutes later, Wuyou and the other three came back, except for the guy who had been against me before.Seeing their dignified expressions, I probably knew what happened. I took a deep breath and said, "Since we have investigated here, there is no way out. But I saw the ghosts appearing in the store just now, and I didn't directly attack them. We still have hope. At least until tonight, as long as we don't violate the taboo, there should be no trouble."

"When will we have to wait? The two of them disappeared one after another in such a short period of time. If we don't respond, I'm afraid we will all die here before tomorrow!" The remaining one seemed very excited and shouted incoherently. Shout out.

Hearing this, I also fell silent, not knowing how to answer.Because I don't know what to do next.If there is no way to solve the Spirit Devouring Formation, even if we can hide here for three days, we will definitely not be able to escape the ghosts sealed under the Spirit Devouring Formation.

Just when the atmosphere was depressed, Wentian suddenly sneered and said, "Since we can't contact your friend, why don't we just ask the villagers to find out. Anyway, we are dead anyway, so don't fight How do you know if it will work?"

Asking the sky is not rough, and now, I am afraid that we have only one way.I always believe that not all villagers have become cold-blooded.
