The sun jumped out of the mountains, covering the green mountains with a purple-red halo, and the lingering clouds and mist were also dyed with the same color, like ignited flames.
Outside the town at the foot of Kangtai Mountain, Xia Chengyin stepped on the accelerator and arrived after dawn.
They arrived much later in the evening than expected.
The main reason is that the electronic ghost is too difficult to deal with. It is as slippery as a slippery loach, slithering through the various electronic devices in the room.
Fortunately, he disconnected the network from the outside world first, otherwise the electronic ghost would probably have escaped.
In comparison, the string of red ropes is much easier to deal with. According to the Taoist priest's judgment, the red rope is not the main body, it is similar to a debuff prop that will be triggered at a certain time.
"It should have been brought from Fuzhao Temple, right?" Gao Tianyi took off the red string uncertainly and wrapped it in talisman paper.
Later, the two of them waited for their colleagues from the next province to arrive and hand over the electronic ghost and the red rope before they got back in the car.
Xia Chengyin was still driving, and Gao Tianyi silently rolled himself into a ball in the back seat, trying to take a nap amid motion sickness.
He didn't expect that this cross-provincial field trip would take so long, but it was exciting enough and he liked it!
The small town at the foot of Kangtai Mountain had just woken up, and the noisy voices gradually came out.
Xia Chengyin turned on his mobile phone and was looking for a hotel.
But he went around the whole town and couldn't find it.
How could it be... The short-haired police officer frowned. He even asked someone in the town to ask. The person who was questioned looked thoughtful and said that they probably didn't have this hotel.
I asked the next one, and he said that there seemed to be one, but he couldn't point to the specific direction.
Xia Chengyin's head almost exploded. On the one hand, the detection equipment started beeping as soon as he entered the town. On the other hand, he couldn't find the way.
Why has no one discovered such a big problem in the small town at the foot of Kangtai Mountain?
"Gao Tianyi, don't run around!" Xia Chengyin shouted, grabbing the high school student next to him by the collar.
The high school student's collar tightened, and he stopped helplessly: "Brother Xia, I'm helping you find a place."
Gao Tianyi took out his compass from nowhere, and the pointer on it was spinning around. He stared at it for a while, feeling a little distressed: "It's just a bit noisy, so it's not easy to find."
"interference?"
"Yeah." The high school student frowned, "Logically speaking, it shouldn't be." How could such a big disturbance hide a hotel in this town.
After the collar was loosened, Gao Tianyi changed the method of operation.
This time, the compass needle had a clear direction after spinning wildly. He followed it for a few steps and found that the pointer always pointed to the same position.
There it was... The high school student took a moment and walked to the edge of town.
The sun rose higher than before, and the clouds and fog shrouding Mount Kangtai became thicker.
Gao Tianyi was surrounded by townspeople coming and going. Someone saw him standing on the edge of the town, looking like he was about to enter the mountains, and exhorted: "Young man, are you going to Fuzhao Temple? Oh, Is this a compass?"
Gao Tianyi didn't answer yes or no.
He put away the compass and smiled like an underage tourist who came to play: "It's a compass, I bought it for fun... Speaking of uncle, is Fuzhao Temple going to do some tricks today? Is it still too late to go now?"
Gao Tianyi took out his phone with his other hand and shook it. What was displayed on the screen was the official account page of Fuzhao Temple.
The residents in the town are all understanding people. The man nodded and shook his head: "Today is a blessing ceremony, but it's too late to go now."
"Hey, why?" Gao Tianyi pretended to be surprised, "Didn't the official account say it's available all day long...?"
"Damn it, the gate of Fuzhao Temple has been closed, and all the tourists who went early in the morning have returned." The man pointed to some nearby tourists, "Official accounts are written for people to see, Fuzhao Temple... Fuzhao Temple What can the temple say? He is very good at appeasing people."
Seeing the "tourists" who were underage high school students looking confused, the townspeople who happened to be fine and chatty opened up their chatterbox: "Have you seen the tourists over there?"
Gao Tianyi looked where his finger pointed and nodded: "You see it, then?"
The townspeople looked at Gao Tianyi, who had a dull look, in silence, and pointed more specifically: "On your wrist, do you see it?"
Gao Tianyi then lowered his eyes and saw the red rope that had been covered by the sleeves from the tourist's hanging wrist.
That was... Gao Tianyi's pupils shrank.
The familiar style of red rope made his scalp numb. He wanted to immediately turn on his mobile phone camera to take a secret photo, and then send the photo to Xia Chengyin.
The townspeople were still chattering on the sidelines: "Fuzhao Temple apologized for closing the gate early, but they took out the good things they had packed in the bottom of the box."
"That's the one that was consecrated in their temple. It's usually very expensive to sell, and you can't even get it for a few thousand dollars..."
The townspeople were still talking, but Gao Tianyi's eyes had already circled around.
Many...almost all tourists took something from Fuzhao Temple with them.
Gao Tianyi said to himself: "This is too bad."
…
An Xiangwen never thought about asking Bai Su.
He advised Qi Zhuyue not to think about it.
"Why?" The black-haired girl who had some thoughts asked in confusion, "Bai Su is very strong, we can try -"
"No, no, no, it's not a question of whether you can beat him or not." An Xiangwen looked confused as he was thinking about his words.
"Just...when it comes to food, Brother Bai has never discussed it."
"?"
"Miss Qi, didn't you notice..." An Xiangwen looked sad, "Brother Bai ate all the statues on the road, and he ate very happily. Apparently that Buddha was also on his to-eat list. "
Although Bai Su didn't say it explicitly, An Xiangwen used his familiarity with Bai Su - two or three months to guarantee that Brother Bai would definitely want to eat that!
Qi Zhuyue opened her mouth and said in a weak tone: "That Buddha doesn't look like a righteous person... Mr. Bai, what do you think...?"
She was strangely silent. Thinking of what she saw and heard along the way in this dream, what An Xiangwen said seemed possible.
The black-haired young man's mouth never stopped, either eating or preparing to eat.
She was frightened by the sharpness of those white teeth. Human teeth should not be able to...
After all, Qi Zhuyue was a member of the special supernatural department. After the initial confusion, she made a decision.
Her work inevitably involves dealing with supernatural beings, and it is not like she has never communicated with supernatural beings in the past.
She thinks Bai Su, as an unknown being, should be able to communicate... right?
The black-haired girl's eyes flickered for a few times, she gestured to others, and walked inside.
"Baisu."
She called Bai Su's name and found the black-haired young man behind the ruins of the Heavenly King's Palace.
In just a moment, the entire Heavenly King's Palace was torn apart, and Qi Zhuyue didn't know what the black-haired young man was looking for.
When he was called, Bai Su sat there and turned his head.
There wasn't much light in the back half of the room where he was, and shadows floated behind him.
"What's the matter, Miss Ji...Qi?" The black-haired young man narrowed his eyes.
...I definitely wanted to talk about sacrifices just now!
Ji and Qi have similar pronunciations, so if they are deliberately ambiguous, it will indeed be difficult to hear them clearly.
Forcing her eyes away from the shadows in the ruins of the apse, Qi Zhuyue took a deep breath.
"Mr. Bai..."
"Do you know where the documents from Fuzhao Temple are?"
