Maoshan Taoist priest

Chapter 20 Fright
The hole that was knocked out was emitting black smoke, and the surrounding area was the dust that was raised after the impact.The three of them coughed a little due to choking, and hurriedly covered their mouths.

Chen Shaoxian gestured to the other two, pointing to the pocket on his left shoulder, and pulled out a dust mask from it. The other two quickly pulled it out and put it on their mouths after being reminded by Chen Shaoxian.After the dust settled, the three of them took off their masks and spit out the dust from their mouths.Seeing that the cave was still emitting black smoke and dust, the three discussed to wait until the smoke and dust cleared to see what happened.

The three of them got together and chatted about what happened just now.Liu Baodong instructed Chen Shaoxian: "Shaoxian, you must keep the jade for nourishing the soul well, and there must be no mistakes. These are just a few human lives."

Chen Shaoxian nodded, and put the Soul Cultivation Jade in his close pocket.Then he took out a pack of cigarettes and shared one with each of them.

Xiao Zhuang lit his cigarette, took a puff and asked, "What was that just now?"

Chen Shaoxian explained: "The po that is lodged by evil and resentment has been on the Thousand Soul Stele for a long time, and it has been lodged by unclean things and has become an evil po. Fortunately, it only formed a mouth and no other organs. One face, even if it is returned to several people, several people will become frenzied."

After taking a puff of cigarette, he continued: "Just now we stripped the soul from the tablet, those things finally found a host, of course we had to try our best to stop them. But at that time, there was a thousand soul tablet blocking that thing, it should be a thousand souls later. There was a crack in the soul tablet, and when we were taking the soul, we hit it violently, so the thing broke the thousand soul tablet and rushed out. But it was hit hard by us, and the thing fled back. Actually, I don’t worry about it After all, this is an urban area, and it is very popular. That thing can't come out, and it was sprinkled with nectar just now, and it will dissipate after a long time. What I'm really worried about is the things underneath. I can't live with what's inside, but if the eggshell breaks, the thing must be severely damaged."

Xiao Zhuang: "What's under there?"

Chen Shaoxian shook his head: "I don't know, but there are two things I can be sure of. First, my great-uncle can't spend so much effort to make this Thousand Souls Garden. The second is the people behind it." , it’s impossible to be fine if you’re full, and spend so much energy to make a waste material. I’ll go down and have a look later, uncle, you and Xiaozhuang will watch out from above.”

"No, I don't know what's going on inside, what should I do if there is a danger?" Liu Baodong directly rejected Chen Shaoxian's proposal.

Chen Shaoxian said to Liu Baodong: "Uncle, we just don't know what's going on, so we have to go down and have a look. I'm saying that I will be careful, and there are so many things going on, so it shouldn't be a big problem. If we don't care, the following If things really harm people, we will be the most guilty.”

Liu Baodong was moved by what Chen Shaoxian said, thought carefully for a while and said: "This way, I'll go down with you, Xiaozhuang is outside."

Xiao Zhuang interjected, "Shaoxian and I are going down, we are both good at skills, we should have someone to take care of us."

Liu Baodong didn't dare after listening, so the two became deadlocked and wanted to go down.

Chen Shaoxian smiled and pulled the two of them together and said: "Uncle, Xiaozhuang, stop arguing and listen to Uncle Liu. You will be up there in a while, Xiaozhuang, and make an appointment. If we don't come up, you will call the police. I know you are in the police department." There are some ways to talk about it, and it will save us less trouble." Seeing what Chen Shaoxian said, the two nodded in agreement.After discussing the details, we came to the top of the cave.

While the three of them were talking, smoke and dust no longer came out of the cave.The three came to the edge of the cave, and Chen Shaoxian wanted to probe in, but Xiaozhuang stopped him and said, "I'll come."

Xiaozhuang scooped up the hole with his hand a few times, put it under his nose and smelled it, and found that there was no smell of flammable gas such as marsh gas, then asked Chen Shaoxian for a lighter, lit it at the parallel place of the hole, and saw that the flame was blown by the wind. Puff puff.He turned his head and said to the two of them: "Wait for a while, let the wind return inside, wait until there is enough oxygen inside before going down."

The three of them waited for a while, and Xiao Zhuang found a branch to help him with a piece of clothing, found a bottle of white wine in his bag, made a simple torch, lit it, and threw it into the hole.

The torch fell into the cave and was not extinguished. Through the light from the torch, it was seen that the ground at the bottom of the cave was flat. Xiao Zhuang told them that they could go down.

Chen Shaoxian gave Xiaozhuang a thumbs-up and said: "I didn't see it, brother Xiaozhuang has a way, let me show you what our uncle and nephew do." After speaking, the two uncles and nephews began to prepare.

The two strapped flashlights to their waists and put on goggles.

Take out four glass balls from the bag, the kind that Liu Baodong smashed Epo just now, and hang them on both sides of the belt.He dug out a few packets from the bag and stuffed them into Tianmajia's pocket. The two drank a few mouthfuls of glutinous rice water and put on a pair of gloves.

Check carefully to make sure there are no leaks.He took out a new faso, found a thick tree, tied it firmly, and threw the other end into the hole.While the torches below were not extinguished, Liu Baodong was in front, and Chen Shaoxian was behind, sliding along Fasuo to the bottom of the cave.

Sliding to the middle, Chen Shaoxian suddenly heard laughter from above. At first he thought it was Xiao Zhuang, but he felt wrong. Behind Xiao Zhuang appeared a woman wearing a cheongsam, her face was so dark that she couldn't see her face clearly, squatting beside Xiao Zhuang, with one hand on Xiao Zhuang's back, blowing on Xiao Zhuang, while blowing hehe laugh.And Xiao Zhuang didn't realize that there was a "person" beside him. I don't know if Xiao Zhuang's hair was blown by this woman, or it was a little messy from the wind just now. Just as he was about to open his mouth to remind him, his feet had already reached the bottom of the cave, and he raised his head again. When I looked, the woman was gone.

Although there is plenty of oxygen at the bottom of the cave, there is a very pungent smell of burning things.I had no choice but to shake Xiaozhuang with the flashlight, and seeing Xiaozhuang looking at me, I pointed at Xiaozhuang, then pointed to my shoulders and the top of my head, and made a bottle shape with my hands.It means to ask Xia Xiaozhuang to touch the top of his head and shoulders with wine and then click.Seeing Xiao Zhuang smiling at him, although I felt a little more at ease, I felt something was wrong there.

Liu Baodong: "Shaoxian, what are you doing?"

"Oh, it's okay, let Xiaozhuang light his Sanyang lamp again." Chen Shaoxian returned.Liu Baodong nodded and stopped talking. The smell at the bottom of the cave was really unpleasant, and it was hard to breathe, which made people lose interest in talking.

Chen Shaoxian looked around, but the light from the torch was limited.Except for a small adjacent area that can be seen clearly, other places are still pitch black.There is an obvious watershed at the junction of light and darkness, as if Chen Shaoxian and Chen Shaoxian are living in a yang world, and the place where the fire does not shine is a bleak underworld.

I looked around with a flashlight, and there was only a short beam of light.The two groped forward. Fortunately, the ground was relatively flat without potholes, and they moved faster.

At this moment, Chen Shaoxian heard Baobao's footsteps behind him, and grabbed Liu Baodong.The flashlight shone backwards, and as the sound of footsteps approached, a figure emerged from the beam of light, and Chen Shaoxian saw that it was Xiaozhuang.I felt a little more relaxed, so I asked, "Why did you get down?"

"Didn't you call me down?" Xiao Zhuang asked suspiciously.

The three of them glanced at each other, Chen Shaoxian's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "That's bad." He hurriedly called the two of them to run towards the entrance of the cave.

When we arrived at the place where it landed first, we saw by the light of the fire that Fasuo was indeed broken.Look at Fasuo's section is very neat, it was cut with a knife.Suddenly recalling what he saw just now, he knew something was wrong. Xiao Zhuang didn't wear a hat, and Chen Shaoxian felt his scalp tingle, so he shouted anxiously: "Uncle Liu, be careful Xiao Zhuang."

But it was a scream from behind, and the voice belonged to Liu Baodong.Then he heard laughter, exactly the same as what Chen Shaoxian heard just now.
