When I was a Taoist

Chapter 86

"Is this a curse?" Gao Liang frowned and asked.

The village chief shook his head, tidied up his sleeves, and said: "Actually, I don't know what it is, I only know that every village chief must go to the village's ancestral hall to perform a ceremony, and only those with blood eyes He deserves to be the village head. Our unnamed village head has said that it has a history of hundreds of years, and this habit has never been broken."

"It seems that you can come back alive because of your bloody eyes." Gao Liang nodded and asked, "I want to take a look at your ancestral hall. Is it convenient?"

The village chief hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed to Gao Liang.He took Gao Liang and me to the center of the village. There were no houses in a radius of tens of meters, and only a two-story ancestral hall stood.The ancestral hall was surrounded by iron railings. Obviously, this was a forbidden area of ​​the village, and no one would approach it normally.

"I am the only one who has the key to enter the ancestral hall. Usually, no one will approach here, let alone enter."

As the village chief said, he took out the key and opened the small door on the iron railing, leading us in.

Stepping into the gate of the ancestral hall, I stretched my head curiously, wanting to see the scene inside the ancestral hall clearly.I saw dozens of spiritual tablets in the center of the ancestral hall, which were obviously the spiritual tablets of the previous village chiefs.In the four corners of the ancestral hall, there is a stone statue of a monster with three heads and six arms.I just looked into the eyes of this stone statue, and then I felt dizzy and almost sat down on the ground.

Fortunately, Gao Liang's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, and he hit my head all at once, instantly dispelling the weird feeling in my head.Shaking my head, I hurriedly hid behind Gao Liang, and asked with a pale face, "Master, what is that, why is it so weird?"

"Little Taoist priest, do you mean these four stone statues?"

The village head looked at my pale face, thinking that I was afraid of the stone statue, and said with a smile: "It is said that this is the patron saint of our village, who has protected the village for so many years. It is precisely because of them that the ghosts did not reach out. into the village."

Gao Liang rubbed my head, and said in a serious tone: "I don't know, I just know that these stone statues must be not simple. What kind of shit patron saint, I reckon that the strange things in the village are related to these stone statues."

Gao Liang wandered around the ancestral hall, but found nothing special again.Just when we were about to leave, I noticed with sharp eyes that there was a protruding stone wall on the wall of the ancestral hall, just like a mechanism in a TV series.

After I pointed, Gao Liang also saw this thing.When we were about to take a closer look, the village chief hurriedly stood in front of us and said, "This is the interior of the ancestral hall, you must not go in!"

"My master thinks something is wrong with this ancestral hall, so let's take a look and see what's wrong."

When I was about to explain, Gao Liang grabbed me, and abnormally chose to give in: "In this case, let's leave first."

After speaking, Gao Liang led me out of the ancestral hall without looking back.

The village chief placed us in an unused house, which was small enough for the two of us to rest.As soon as the door was closed, I couldn't wait to ask: "Master, why did you hesitate just now. I always feel that there is a ghost in this ancestral hall, and there must be some secret hidden in it!"

Gao Liang knocked on my head, and said angrily: "It's up to you to say. You can see it, can I not know. Today I will teach you something. If it is not a last resort, it is best Don't go into the depths of the ancestral hall easily. This is not a good place, and if it doesn't work, both of us will have to go in."

"Is it really so scary?" I swallowed and asked weakly.

"If you don't believe me, try it yourself, boy. If you are captured by the ghosts in the ancestral hall and become a foster husband, don't blame me for not saving you."

Gao Liang frightened me, and immediately snored while lying on the bed.I took a look at the sky, it wasn't particularly late.But after a day of running around, I was a little tired, and I quickly fell asleep in bed.

In a daze, there was a melodious singing faintly in my ears.Although the voice was not very pleasant, it attracted me deeply like magic and woke me up from my sleep.

I turned over and sat up, only to find that Gao Liang's bed was empty, and I didn't know where he had gone.Glancing at the sky outside the window, I realized that it was only late at night, and the moon was shining faintly behind the dark clouds.

"Is the voice just a dream?" I rubbed my temples, and when I was about to go out to find the highlight, the singing voice in my dream sounded again.

The voice in the dream was hazy, but now when I am awake, the singing is like a black hole, gradually swallowing up my sanity.In a daze, I only had one thought in my mind, and that was to find the source of this singing!
I don't know how long I walked, the back of my head suddenly hurt, and then I fell to the ground involuntarily.In this way, I also came to my senses, clutching the back of my head and screaming: "***, who is the sneak attacking master, get out!"

Gao Liang's figure came in front of me, slapped me directly on the face, and said cursingly: "You brat, I saved your life and you still scold me. Look where you are now!" !"

Hearing this, I raised my head and glanced ahead, and it was the entrance of the village.If I take a few more steps, I will leave the range of Wuming Village, and I'm afraid it will be as bad as those missing villagers.

Although I felt aggrieved after being beaten up, I forgot about this trivial matter by escaping from the dead. I asked with lingering fear: "Master, why did I come here?"

Gao Liang snorted coldly, looked at the direction outside the village, and said, "I also heard the singing, so I wanted to find the source of the sound. I didn't expect you to be so stupid just after wandering around a few times. He walked over and almost caused a catastrophe."

"Master, did those villagers also fall into the trap of ghosts because of the singing?"

When I asked this question, I felt heart palpitations.If Gao Liang hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid I wouldn't even know how to die.

"Whether that's the case or not, we'll find out tomorrow."

Gao Liang looked into the distance and said, "I've already memorized the direction of the singing, as long as I go to find out in the daytime, it will be clear."
