Looking intently at the font, I tapped my fingers on the table subconsciously.
Gradually, there was only a slight tapping sound left in the ears, and the whole person was immersed in a state of tranquility.
Recalling Jiang Yihong’s teaching to me and my understanding of the Bagua method.
The two words "Zhou Ji" gradually separated and faded in my eyes, forming scattered strokes.
After a while, the handwriting faded. I dipped it in water again and wrote a "口" in the faded area.
This is the only word in Zhou Ji's name that is related to gossip.
I squinted my eyes slightly and watched as the word "mouth" gradually faded away, but this word began to dance in my eyes and gradually penetrated into my mind.
"The mouth is Dui Gua, and the place is at the lakeside, the big swamp, the waterside, the place where the mountains collapse and the earth splits." I murmured in a low voice.
At this moment, I had already used the Eight Diagrams method to determine the approximate location of Zhou Jie.
After getting up, I went to the yard again and walked towards Father Miao.
At this time, Father Miao was obviously stunned. He stopped what he was doing, looked at me doubtfully, and asked me what was wrong?
I immediately asked him whether there had been any sudden collapse in the Xuanhe River Basin near Miaojia Village or in areas with water over the years.
Although Father Miao didn't understand why, he still started to lower his head and think seriously.
After a long time, Father Miao raised his head and said: "Outside the entrance of the village, there is a river temple. It was also the place where the beast was imprisoned before. The river temple was built on the edge of the hanging river. There used to be a stone platform there. It was built two or three years ago. When I was walking in front of it, it suddenly collapsed."
As he spoke, Father Miao's expression became even more excited. There was hatred in his eyes, and he whispered: "It was Zhou Zi who was imprisoned. What happened there soon after, the villagers said that the River God was... I feel that Zhou Zhai is so beastly that even the temple cannot tolerate him."
I was really stunned for a moment. I didn't expect that the place I calculated was actually the location where Zhou Jie was imprisoned?
In this case, should Zhou Zi still stay there?
Suddenly, I thought of a saying, the most dangerous place is the safest place.
The villagers all thought that he had escaped from the Heshen Temple, so it was naturally impossible for the militiamen to guard him. It would be the safest for him to stay there...
Because even Zhiren Xu and I had never thought about going there to find Zhou Zi.
"How to get to Heshen Temple, Dad Miao." I took a deep breath and my tone became much calmer.
Father Miao whispered: "Exit the village entrance, face to the west, next to the Xuanhe River, and you can see it if you keep walking. There is a forest over there. The forest is behind the temple. The temple gate is facing the Xuanhe River. The steps It’s also next to the river.”
I roughly remembered the location, and the forest described by Mr. Miao surprised me even more.
The reason is simple. If you leave the village and walk in that direction to find the River Temple, then Paperman Xu and I will definitely be discovered.
How many people can leave the village in the middle of the night? If Zhou Zi is more vigilant, Zhou Zi will run away before we get close to the river temple.
That forest is an opportunity, a chance for me and the paper man to hide from others!
I didn't say anything else to Father Miao anymore, I just tried to comfort him and let him have a good rest.
As a result, Father Miao looked at me blankly for a few seconds. He suddenly said: "Mr. Li, you promised me that if you catch that beast, you will let me see him."
My eyelids twitched slightly. I didn't expect how Father Miao could see the signs.
However, he stopped asking questions and just lowered his head and continued sweeping the floor.
I turned around and paid attention to the paper man Xu. At this moment, he had finished eating and was getting up.
"Uncle Xu, let's go." I said in a deep voice.
The paper man Xu Wei narrowed his narrow fox eyes and nodded, his expression suddenly becoming more sinister.
In fact, at this moment, my head was already a little heavy, and I still felt a sense of pain.
I didn’t rest for two days and one night. It was the night of the second day, and I was holding on with all my willpower.
But my consciousness is very clear.
At least at this moment, I think that week of being alone should be as difficult as mine.
For the past two days and one night, he has been following us to do mischief.
I'm almost at my limit, and Zhou Zi is probably the same, and he's most likely resting at this moment.
My feet were very fast. After walking out of the Miao family yard, I headed straight towards the entrance of the village.
After walking a few steps, I didn't wait for the paper man Xu to ask me about my situation, so I told him in a low voice everything I had analyzed and that now we were going to the River Temple.
The paper man Xu suddenly said: "Just now in the yard, I felt murderous intent."
My heart skipped a beat, thinking that the paper man might be talking about me.
Because I do think Zhou Zi deserves to die.
But I definitely can't kill people casually. Good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds, and evil deeds will be rewarded with evil consequences. Whatever fate Zhou Zi will face, there are places to punish him.
While thinking about it, I was about to explain to the paper man Xu.
The paper man Xu was the first to speak: "Mr. Miao wants to kill him. I feel it is very accurate. Although you also have murderous intentions, yours is more of hatred. Mr. Miao is hatred. His murderous intentions are stronger than yours and stronger than Miao's." Yu'er wants to be rich, you can't let Mr. Miao see Zhou Jie."
"At his age, even if he kills someone, I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand the stimulation and will die."
I felt a chill in my heart. I didn't expect that the paper man Xu was talking about this, because I didn't think of it myself.
But at this time, I felt that what he said made sense.
I nodded to show that I understood.
During this conversation, we had already walked out of the village entrance and were now walking towards the west, gradually approaching the Xuanhe River.
I looked far ahead and could indeed see a claustrophobic forest.
As for what is behind the forest, I can't see clearly.
I dispersed the rest of the distracting thoughts in my mind and whispered to the paper man Xu to be careful not to be discovered by Zhou Zi.
It was already dark at this time, with the full moon shining brightly and the stars mottled.
As I got closer to the forest, my heart skipped a beat again.
Because that forest turned out to be a willow forest...
Inexplicably, I remembered what happened in the willow forest behind the ghost woman's house in Hejia Village...
There are many raccoons living in the willow forest, and the raccoons are so old that their fur has turned white, and they are more scary than the sneaky corpses.
"Uncle Xu, don't go directly through the forest, go around from the side..." My heart was beating slightly and I whispered a little hastily.
While I was speaking, I vaguely saw a few old ladies standing in front of the forest, whispering to each other...
In the middle of the night, in front of Liulinzi, where could there be any normal old lady?
If you come here to chat, you are either crazy or a ghost!
Or, he is not a human being...
The paper man Xu Zi followed me and started to take a detour as I said.
However, his tone was not pleasant, and he said: "How come there are so many ghosts and ghosts outside the River Temple? This River God is probably not a good thing."
