"Ignore him." I asked Shao Zilong to open a few more.
Shao Zilong was also unambiguous and immediately opened three more.
After the black smoke dissipated, the jar was filled with a transparent liquid that exuded a smell similar to sandalwood.
"What is it?" Shao Zilong came over and looked down with his eyes wide open.
Suddenly, a black shadow emerged from the bottom of the altar, and a pale little face appeared.
Shao Zilong got too close and was frightened.
What was soaking in the jar was a newborn baby!
I don’t know how long it has been soaked in there.
"Fuck!" Shao Zilong ran to look at other jars.
The result was similar. The things soaked in this jar were all newborn babies, all of them!
"I'm sorry." I took out my phone, took a few photos, and said, "Let's go."
After the two of us ran out, Shao Zilong flew with his hands, put the extracted bricks back in place in an instant, then opened the door and slipped out.
As soon as the front foot left, the back foot heard a noisy sound, and the chaotic footsteps were approaching quickly.
We took precautions in advance and went around. Then we slowed down and strolled towards our accommodation.
"Is that the corpse refining kiln?" Shao Zilong's expression turned ugly.
Before, this guy always had his eyes narrowed and a smile on his face. It was rare to see him look serious like this.
I hummed.
"What on earth does Cao Xianguan want to do? Fortunately, he dares to praise Taoist temple!" A cold light flashed in Shao Zilong's narrowed eyes.
"It's hard to say now." I shook my head.
The current situation is indeed a fog that makes people unclear.
This Cao Xian Temple was fully donated by the Cao family. Even the name of the temple has the word "Cao" in it. It is absolutely impossible to say that it has nothing to do with the Cao family.
The Cao Immortal Temple was built on Qinglong Mountain. As the center of the formation, a huge Feng Shui formation was arranged. During the suppression period, it was naturally led by the Cao family.
The corpse refining kiln in Cao Xianguan actually has many similarities with Liu Hao's house, the ice prison under the Cao family's old house.
But I was short of time just now, so I didn't have time to search more to see if there was that weird giant eye inside.
Next is Shimen Village, the "Red River" Liu Hao once mentioned...
All of this seems to be inextricably linked.
At the beginning, both Liu Hao and Zhou Xiang were deeply afraid of the Cao family, and they kept saying that the Cao family was far more terrifying than imagined.
Now it seems that the Cao family is indeed very hidden, far beyond the scope of ordinary families.
Maybe what happened to my grandfather back then was not as simple as I thought before.
"Go back to your room and get some sleep first." There were so many things going on that I couldn't figure them out for the moment, so I stopped thinking about them for the time being.
"Okay, let's go back and have a good nap!" Shao Zilong stretched out.
While we were talking, we entered the courtyard, and someone happened to come out of it and bumped into us.
The person who came was wearing a long skirt, and her long hair was draped wetly over her shoulders. There was a smell of shampoo in the air, and she had obviously just come out of the shower.
She has no makeup, but her features are picturesque, and her skin is breakable.
Although she looked a little different from her previous appearance in the woods, she could still recognize her at a glance. It was the girl who seemed to be Shen Qingyao.
The two sides of us met suddenly, and both of us were stunned on the spot.
The girl's face turned red and white, and she stood there a little at a loss.
I felt like she might have been so embarrassed that she wanted to dig out the basement right then and there.
"What should I do?" After the atmosphere was tense for a long time, Shao Zilong was the first to speak and asked me in a low voice.
I glanced at him, wondering if there was a certain pot that was not opened and picked up, so I had to say, "Why don't you just pretend you didn't see it?"
The girl's face suddenly turned red.
We were about to go there when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind us, and at the same time someone shouted in surprise, "Brother, do you think who is that?"
As soon as I heard that voice, I knew it was Wei Dongting coming.
Now that he is here, Cao Junwu must be here too.
Looking back, I saw Cao Junwu taking the lead and walking in with Wei Dongting and others.
"Why are you two here?" Wei Dongting finally saw us and asked with a frown.
But Cao Junwu simply ignored us and walked up to the girl. His originally cold face also showed a smile, "Yao Yao, I didn't expect to meet you here."
"What are you looking at? I'm asking you questions!" Wei Dongting raised his voice.
"It's not convenient to say this." I said with some embarrassment.
"Pretend, what's the inconvenience of this, tell me!" Wei Dongting sneered.
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Qingyao said angrily, "What are you doing making such a fuss here?"
When she opened her mouth, Wei Dongting immediately withered.
Cao Junwu said with a smile, "Yao Yao, how about we..."
But before he finished speaking, Shen Qingyao coldly interrupted, "I'm going to bed. Where did you come from? Where are you going back?"
Ignoring Cao Junwu, who had a stiff smile, he turned around and left.
"Who's over there?"
Suddenly, someone in the distance shouted loudly, and then a group of Taoist priests rushed over and surrounded the courtyard.
Shen Qingyao was surprised and stopped.
"What happened? It's us!" Wei Dongting stepped forward and asked with a frown.
Judging from his tone, it was obvious that he was quite familiar with the Taoist priests here.
The leading Taoist priest was about fifty years old, with a tall build and a pair of eyes shining in the night. If he hadn't been wearing a Taoist robe, some people would have believed him to be a bandit leader.
He only glanced at Wei Dongting, then turned away and said sternly, "Someone just broke into the backyard of the Taoist temple!"
"Why, someone ran in and stole property?" Wei Dongting asked in surprise.
The Taoist priest covered his face with frost and said in a cold voice, "It would be better if the property was stolen, and our Taoist temple would treat it as charity. It's a pity that these thieves are really hateful and destroyed the longevity doll stored in the Taoist temple!"
"What longevity doll?" Wei Dongting asked in surprise.
The others also looked at each other, confused.
Shao Zilong winked at me.
Cao Junwu also turned back, frowned and asked the Taoist priest, "What's going on?"
When the Taoist priest saw Cao Junwu coming to ask, his face brightened a little, and he made a gesture and said, "Bring it up."
Two Taoist priests came forward carrying a white porcelain jar. On one side was written the character "福" as red as blood, and on the other side was the character "Shou" as black as ink.
It is the white porcelain jar in the corpse kiln.
"What's inside?" Wei Dongting leaned his head to take a closer look.
As a result, he screamed in fright and took several steps back.
Others also saw clearly what was in the jar, and they were all shocked.
"What are you doing?" Cao Junwu's face darkened.
I have been observing everyone's expressions, especially Cao Junwu, but for a while I couldn't tell whether this person really didn't know about this, or whether he was hiding it.
"The babies in this jar are all babies who died in infancy. When their parents were sad, they entrusted them to the Taoist temple so that they could enjoy the incense in the Taoist temple and accumulate blessings for the next life. They are also called longevity dolls. This is also an act of good deeds by our Taoist temple. ." The Taoist priest said proudly.
Shao Zilong and I looked at each other and thought to ourselves that this guy is quite awesome, he could actually get him to come up with such a self-defeating reason.
It must have been that the other party discovered that someone had entered the corpse refining kiln, and they simply exposed it first and made something like a longevity doll.
"So that's it." Everyone was relieved.
"What is hateful is that a thief broke into the blessed place tonight, thinking that there was some treasure in the jar, and actually broke the altar and disturbed the souls of these children!" the Taoist priest said angrily.
Just as everyone was talking, the Taoist priest suddenly changed the subject, pointed at Shao Zilong and me and said, "Where were you two before?"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the eyes present were focused on the two of us.
There was silence.
Wei Dongting frowned and said, "You two..."
Before he could finish his words, I pointed at Shen Qingyao with a smile, "The three of us have always been together."
