p: [The second chapter today, this chapter has 10,000 words, and the first chapter plus the total of 16,000 words, does it count as a breakthrough update? 】
…
"Da da da--"
The sound of rapid footsteps came not far away.
Sun Zhenbang looked up and saw that it was Team Zhou and Bai Yanfei. He was a little stunned and asked, "Why are you here?"
"We heard about what was going on here, so we came over to see if there was anything we could do to help."
In fact, there was no progress in the investigation of Team Zhou and Bai Yanfei. After hearing what happened, I felt that maybe something happened to this group of people.
Maybe you can get useful information from them.
Sun Zhenbang naturally understood their thoughts and was quite helpless, "Hey, I told you, you can't find anything out about this matter."
Team Zhou and Bai Yanfei have the kind of stubborn character that never looks back until they hit the wall.
"We can't give up as long as we have the slightest clue, and this incident may be a breakthrough. So many people suddenly lost contact and fell into coma in the mountains. It's very suspicious no matter how you look at it. Someone must have tampered with it."
Bai Yanfei's analysis was reasonable, but she didn't notice Sun Zhenbang's complicated eyes.
What if it is not humans who do these things, but 'gods'?
Sun Zhenbang hesitated, "Don't you think this is a bit strange? If it is really man-made, who could do this?"
There were many people in the hospital, and Sun Zhenbang couldn't make it too obvious, so he could only give vague guidance. However, Bai Yanfei and Team Zhou didn't think of that at all.
Bai Yanfei and Team Zhou nodded, "Of course it's strange, so we have to investigate clearly."
Sun Zhenbang sighed, his eyes somewhat meaningful, "You guys still don't understand."
While the two parties were talking, the nurse sent news that Li Minghai and the others had finally woken up.
Sun Zhenbang and others hurried over and heard screams one after another before entering the ward.
There were vague words like Taoist temple, snake statue, fog, scary woman, and a few other key words, but I didn't know what they were talking about.
Through the glass door, you can see Li Minghai struggling in the ward, his expression full of panic and fear, as if those doctors and nurses are some kind of savage beast.
Li Minghai was nervous. He was shivering in the corner holding the quilt. His eyes were full of nervousness. He looked at the people around him warily.
"Mr. Li, please relax, we don't mean any harm."
Doctors and nurses tried to stabilize Li Minghai's mood, but to no avail.
Because he was too frightened, Li Minghai's facial features became distorted, and he kept hitting people with objects, and the ward instantly became a mess.
"You monsters, don't come here, get out of here!"
He seemed to be crazy and emotionally unstable, and the doctors and nurses nearby could not get close to him.
Not only Li Minghai, the situation in several other wards was similar. Those who were rescued from the mountain were all like this without exception. The ward was in a state of panic.
Li Minghai was hysterical. Seeing that his mood fluctuated too much, in order to prevent him from hurting himself, the doctors and nurses could only take tough measures.
"The patient is extremely emotionally unstable and needs to be calmed down. You guys should quickly find a way to hold him down."
The doctors and nurses were in a hurry, and Sun Zhenbang rushed over to help and gave them a sedative, and these people slowly became quiet.
Sun Zhenbang frowned, "What's going on? Why are they in such a situation?"
The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Maybe he suffered too much stimulation before he fell into coma."
Bai Yanfei and Team Zhou's expressions were full of surprise and confusion. How much stimulation did they receive to become like this?
Li Minghai can be considered a prominent figure, what exactly has he been through?
And why do they say "monster" and why are so many people unconscious at the same time?
Thinking of their various performances just now, things became more and more confusing.
But we can only wait until these people wake up completely to know what happened to them on the mountain.
A lot of people were gradually waiting outside the hospital, including the police, people from the contracting group, and of course staff from the township government.
When Li Minghai woke up again, there was no hysteria in the morning. It was like two people. He looked very calm now, and there should be no problem in normal communication.
Sun Zhenbang took out his ID and said, "Hello Mr. Li, I am from the Wudu Police Department. I would like to ask, what happened to you on the mountain?"
Li Minghai's eyes were a little confused, as if he was caught in some kind of memory, "We seemed to be lost after we went up the mountain. We couldn't find the direction, and then it suddenly fogged."
It's fog again!
Team Zhou and Bai Yanfei discovered the key words in the words, glanced at Sun Zhenbang, and found that he deliberately did not speak anymore, obviously giving himself a chance, and immediately couldn't help but interrupt: "Excuse me, what kind of fog is it?" ?”
They had been up the mountain several times before and had never encountered fog, but the engineering team encountered it as soon as they went there.
Then could the fog encountered by the engineering team be the same as that seen in the park?
Li Minghai hesitated for a moment and said: "I can't tell. The fog was very strange, and then we met——"
At this point, countless fragments flashed through Li Minghai's head, and his words stopped abruptly.
Gray-black mist, huge tentacles, and cold white bones intertwined together to form bizarre scenes, and his face gradually turned pale.
Even though he can't remember clearly now, the fear and fear still made his body tremble uncontrollably.
Sun Zhenbang hadn't noticed anything wrong with Li Minghai yet, so he couldn't help but ask, "What else did you encounter?"
These sporadic memory scenes lurk deep in Li Minghai's memory, seemingly shrouded in a hazy mist, making it difficult for him to distinguish them clearly.
When people are under great fear, they will activate the brain's protective mechanism and choose to automatically forget certain scenes. In addition, Ye Qin has tampered with their memories.
So Li Minghai only remembered the general picture, but he had an instinctive fear when facing these things. It was a shadow engraved in his bones and would not change with the passage of time.
"A strange Taoist temple, and a woman who suddenly disappeared without a trace. The things enshrined in that Taoist temple are also very strange."
"White Bones! And White Bones Taoist Master!"
Li Minghai's words were incoherent and confused, and it was difficult to understand what he meant. Sun Zhenbang and others frowned when they heard this.
I couldn't help but ask: "What are these? Taoist White Bones? Is he the murderer? Can you be more specific?"
"Don't ask anymore, you don't ask anymore!"
Li Minghai held his head and curled up with his whole body, as if he thought of something bad, his voice was trembling.
Seeing that Li Minghai became excited again, the nurse next to him quickly stepped forward.
"I'm sorry, the patient's condition is not suitable for answering these questions right now. It's better to let him rest for a while and wait until he is completely calm."
In order to prevent something like that from happening again in the morning, the nurse stopped Sun Zhenbang and others from visiting.
Seeing this situation, Sun Zhenbang and the others did not want to disturb them anymore. After walking out of the ward, the doubts that shrouded everyone's minds did not dissipate, but became deeper and deeper.
The situation of other police officers was similar to that of Li Minghai, and they also found nothing.
This made everyone even more curious. After getting lost in the mountains, what happened to Li Minghai and others that actually made them all comatose. Even after they woke up, they had such huge sequelae.
Although there was no obvious physical injury, there was no doubt that the spirit was greatly traumatized and shadowed.
It's a pity that according to the current situation of Li Minghai and others, they can't ask anything at all.
…
The matter was so big that Professor Zhang of the Book of Changes, who was still living in the village for the time being, naturally received a lot of news.
The assistant beside me sighed with emotion, "There are so many weird things happening. Fortunately, we didn't have so many things happen when we went up the mountain."
Professor Zhang has been concentrating on research recently. It can be said that he has been blind to what is happening outside the window. The information is not as well-informed as his assistant. He put down the book in his hand and suddenly became interested, "What do you say?"
The assistant's face was full of mystery, showing a gossipy look.
"I also heard that there was a tourism project development there. As a result, the people from the project engineering team went missing and were found unconscious in the mountains by the police early the next morning. They are still receiving treatment in the hospital."
Professor Zhang didn't expect such a big thing to happen recently, and looked a little stunned, "It's actually so serious?"
The assistant was still talking to himself, "I heard that they got lost. How could dozens of grown men get lost inexplicably? Strange things happened when the police went to find them. It seems that there is something evil about that place."
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.
"get lost?"
Professor Zhang was stunned and couldn't help but think of the weird dream he had before, as well as the Qimen Dunjia he talked about with that weird existence in the dream.
Regarding some of the functions of Qimen Dunjia, it is said that the use of formations can change the terrain of mountains and rivers, thereby achieving the purpose of besieging the enemy.
I had this dream in front of me, and a similar situation happened later. Is there any connection between the two?
"this……"
Professor Zhang looked a little dazed, and his eyes fell on the window, not far away from the green mountains, and his eyes were a little more solemn.
Probably because he was too absorbed in his thoughts, the assistant shouted several times but didn't hear him.
"Professor Zhang, what are you thinking about?"
Professor Zhang shook his head and smiled, his face returned to normal, "I didn't think about anything, I just thought of a strange dream."
It's just a dream, how can it be taken seriously.
"Besides, Qimen Dunjia is not that powerful. It can still make people fascinated. This is not very realistic..."
Professor Zhang quickly gave up this unrealistic idea, thinking that it might be because he had not had a good rest recently, and he started to have random thoughts.
The assistant also saw the book in his hand and couldn't help but be curious, "Professor Zhang, when did you become interested in things like Qimen Dunjia?"
The book Professor Zhang holds in his hand is "The Essence of Qi Men Dun Jia".
Although the Book of Changes is related to Qi Men Dun Jia, Professor Zhang's main research areas are Feng Shui, physiognomy, fortune, etc. Although Qi Men Dun Jia has dabbled in it, he is not interested.
After returning from Longyuan Mountain, I found a lot of related books, and even prepared to do some research.
Professor Zhang couldn’t explain clearly. Maybe it was because of that dream?
Bang bang bang.
While the two were talking, someone knocked on the door.
The assistant opened the door and saw a man and a woman standing outside the door. The man looked middle-aged, but the woman was young and beautiful.
"You are?"
"We are the police. This is our ID. I'm sorry to interrupt my visit. Actually, I have something I want to ask Professor Zhang."
The visitors were Team Zhou and Bai Yanfei. When they first came to Fog City, they didn't believe what Sun Zhenbang said, but after experiencing this incident, they had to believe some things.
The behavior of Li Minghai and others was really strange, and they lost most of their memories before coma.
No one knew what they saw on the mountain, so dozens of people all fell into a coma, and even said the same thing after waking up.
Bai Yanfei, who had vowed previously, couldn't help but waver at this moment.
After learning that Professor Zhang and others had been to the mountain several times but had never encountered anything similar, they came over to inquire to see if they could get any useful information.
This is also what Sun Zhenbang meant.
"It was quite peaceful when we went up the mountain. We didn't encounter anything special..."
After learning their purpose, Professor Zhang received them without hiding anything and told them everything.
It's a pity that I didn't get any useful clues from Professor Zhang.
Team Zhou had no choice but to do nothing, and they discovered the mystery of this mountain even more.
But at this moment, Professor Zhang seemed to have thought of something, "I heard that this group of people got lost in the mountains, and there was fog behind them, right?"
Bai Yanfei nodded and said that this was the case according to the injured person's self-report, and she didn't know why Professor Zhang suddenly said this.
"It's quite a coincidence that I have dreamed about a mist before, and there was a woman in ancient clothes in the mist."
"We talked a lot about the traditional Chinese theory of Qi Men Dun Jia, and the injured person you mentioned was lost in the mountains is quite similar to Qi Men Dun Jia. Of course, it is just a similarity. Qi Men Dun Jia is not so magical."
Professor Zhang told the dream as if it was a joke, but did not notice the subtle changes in the expressions of Team Zhou and Bai Yanfei.
Fog again? !
And women in costume?
When they walked out of Professor Zhang, both of them looked thoughtful.
After so many days of tracing, there has been no new clues or progress, and instead we have fallen into a cloud of fog.
It seems that everything is inextricably linked to this fog, but there is no trace of it, like a ghost.
Bai Yanfei couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, "Team Zhou, do we want to continue the investigation?"
Team Zhou, who was experienced in handling cases, was also a little hesitant at this moment.
He felt like he had entered a dead end. If it were normal, he would never be defeated by these setbacks.
But in the face of some facts, human power seems indeed small.
What exactly is that mist?
It can't really be Yin Qi as people jokingly say.
The wrinkles between Captain Zhou's brows could almost kill a mosquito. He sighed heavily, "Forget it, we can't find it out, and after being out for so many days, it's time to go back."
Bai Yanfei bit her lip and wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't.
They didn't believe the facts, but they couldn't believe the truth before them, just as Sun Zhenbang said, no matter how they investigated.
The results will not change.
Things involving this mountain will always be a mystery and full of mystery.
Now, they believe it.
…
Li Minghai and his team were recuperating in the hospital. The project engineering team had no backbone, and some people were admitted to the hospital.
The strange things that happened on the mountain made the remaining people afraid to act rashly, and the development could only be put on hold for the time being.
After all, the fate of the first wave of people who went there was already here.
With such lessons learned and the warnings from the villagers, even people who don't believe in the mountain god theory have to believe it.
The progress of such a large project has been slowed down, and a lot of investment has been introduced in the early stage. Once the work is stopped, it will not only affect individuals.
As the saying goes, one move can move the whole body. This incident even alarmed the relevant personnel in the city.
After all, dozens of people were comatose in the mountains and are now recuperating in the hospital. It is not a small matter. For this reason, the leaders above specially summoned Sun Zhenbang to ask about the situation.
From the beginning to the present, Sun Zhenbang has been responsible for related matters on Longyuan Mountain, and he is very clear about the development of various things.
In the conference room, city and county leaders gathered together, and the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
"Captain Sun, don't be nervous. I asked you to come here this time mainly because I want to ask about the development of the Longyuan Mountain project. I heard that you secretly disapproved of this project before and even wanted to stop it?"
Regarding this matter, the leaders above also know some information.
They did not suspect that Sun Zhenbang had any tricks in this. After all, as a people's policeman, he could not do anything that violated organizational disciplines.
But the process still needs to be followed.
Sun Zhenbang nodded, his eyes very calm, "It is indeed such a thing."
The leaders looked at each other and said, "Can you please tell me why you want to stop it? After all, the development of this project will be extremely beneficial to the local economy without any harm."
"And I heard that even the nearby villagers seemed to be very resistant to this project, and even almost had a conflict with the construction team at one point."
Sun Zhenbang hesitated to speak. Looking at the many leaders present, he didn't know whether he should say anything or not.
The expressions of the leaders gradually became serious. Sun Zhenbang's look showed that there was something going on. Is it possible that he was really involved in this?
The leaders' tone gradually became stern, "Captain Sun, as a people's policeman, you should not conceal or deceive anything about the organization. I hope you can tell the truth."
Sun Zhenbang thought for a moment and decided to tell everything he knew. Until now, this was the only way to get the city to give up on developing this project.
"Actually, Longyuan Mountain is not simple. I blocked this project earlier for this reason. I was afraid that something would happen. The result is obvious, something happened."
"Speaking of Longyuan Mountain, we have to start with a case a few years ago..."
Sun Zhenbang told all the strange things about Longyuan Mountain, as well as several previous related murder cases. It can be said that everything is detailed.
There was no need for him to hide it, and he couldn't hide it. He could find out these things with a little inquiry, and he also hoped to be taken seriously if he told them.
"This is what happened. As I continued my in-depth investigation, I found that these cases were inseparable from Longyuan Mountain, but later they all fell into disuse..."
The expressions of the leaders also had the surprise before, and finally became incomprehensible. Although Sun Zhenbang spoke very cryptically, there was a meaning in and out of his words: there was no murderer, it was simply the existence of some mysterious power in Longyuan Mountain!
Of course, he wasn't stupid and didn't say it openly.
After all, wearing official uniform, you can understand some things, but you can't express them in words, otherwise it will be bad if you are caught.
The conference room was extremely quiet. It took a long time before someone broke the silence and asked with a serious face:
"Officer Sun, do you know what you are talking about?"
Sun Zhenbang nodded solemnly.
"I swear on my more than 20 years of police career that nothing I say is false. There are detailed records in the files about these cases, and they are all unsolved cases. Leaders can look at the information."
No matter how courageous Sun Zhenbang was, he would never tell such a big lie, and there was no reason for him to do so.
It would be even more strange to say that Sun Zhenbang colluded with the villagers.
This project can improve local economic conditions, which is a good thing for the surrounding villagers.
They gave up such a good opportunity and insisted on preventing the development of the project. This shows that there must be a deeper reason behind it. If it is explained by simple 'feudal superstition', it is totally unjustifiable.
Moreover, everything Sun Zhenbang said is traceable and coherent.
After listening to his story, the leaders' expressions were a little complicated.
"Okay, you go back and wait for notification. We will continue to investigate this matter."
Before Sun Zhenbang left, he hesitated for a moment and finally decided: "Leader, there is something I don't know whether to say or not?"
He was polite and didn't give the leaders a chance to speak inappropriately, "I think the Longyuan Mountain project is not suitable. It should not disrupt the original ecology here, or even disturb the unknown existence of the mountains in the mountains. "
He has made his words very clear, and I hope the leaders will consider it carefully.
This time, the people in the construction team were just unconscious and their lives were not in danger. If there was a next time, Sun Zhenbang couldn't guarantee what would happen.
No one can bear the wrath of the mountain god.
This time is just a warning. If the people in the city don't pay attention to it and continue to develop the project, I'm afraid it will really cause death in the end. By then, it will be too late.
Although what Sun Zhenbang said was reasonable and well-founded, it was impossible for the city leaders to just believe his words. After that, they called in several other police officers responsible for related cases.
What they said was no different from Sun Zhenbang. One of the policemen even talked about what happened when they went up the mountain to search for someone that day.
"When we were looking for someone that day, we actually got lost, but Officer Sun prayed and bowed to the mountain god. After that, we found the way."
When the leader heard this, it was as if he was listening to a story. How could he find a way out just because he worshiped the mountain god?
But this incident is indeed the personal experience of these police officers. Not only a few said this, but also all the police officers who participated in the search and rescue that day.
People in the city set up a special investigation team for this purpose and conducted detailed investigations into the cases related to Longyuan Mountain in recent years, which shows how much attention is paid to this matter.
However, the information found by the investigation team was almost indistinguishable from what Sun Zhenbang said.
"The locals in Longyuan Village believe in the mountain god very much, and even built a mountain temple for this purpose. According to the information received so far, many miraculous things have indeed happened in Longyuan Mountain."
Let’s not talk about the unsolved cases where the murderer has not yet been found.
Just the wildfires that followed, the skyfire incident captured by the meteorological station, and the weirdness encountered by the interview program team cannot be explained by scientific means so far.
And all of this happened in Longyuan Mountain!
Looking at the information found by the investigation team, all the leaders fell into silence with different expressions.
"So, maybe there really is something special about that mountain?"
Looking at the evidence before them, the leaders were doubtful.
Although people nowadays say that we should pay attention to science and oppose feudal superstition, it is undeniable that there are indeed forces different from science in this world.
What's more, these leaders can sit in their current position. Who dares to say that they don't care about certain things, such as Feng Shui and fortune...
Even though they don't believe in ghosts and gods, they do believe in such illusory things as Feng Shui and official luck!
I originally thought that the development of the Longyuan Mountain project would be a good thing for the benefit of the people, but I didn't expect that it would involve a series of things, completely contrary to their original intention.
It took a long time for someone to say, "How about we cancel this project? Longyuan Mountain is not the only place nearby. We can redefine the scope and carry out new development."
Everything has not started yet, and Longyuan Mountain has not invested much. Even if it is cancelled, there will be no loss. It is just a matter of time for re-selection of the site.
This proposal was approved by the vast majority of leaders.
If you believe it, you have it; if you don’t believe it, you don’t have it.
Nowadays, when starting construction, it is necessary to choose a good and auspicious day, and to worship and burn incense. The purpose is to make the project progress smoothly. In some places, worship is even more cumbersome, and there are many skills and techniques.
This cannot be said to be superstition, but a rule passed down by our ancestors for thousands of years, and there is some truth to it.
Now that this project has not even started, so many things have happened. Dozens of people have been hospitalized and are still recuperating. It is difficult not to think too much.
"..."
There was silence in the conference room for a long time. Many senior leaders were unwilling to take the lead. Naturally, it could be seen that now everyone was retreating.
Whether this matter is big or small, I haven't seen it with my own eyes. It doesn't really matter whether I believe it or not, but who can be unambiguous?
"When we have time, we should go down to investigate. By the way, Xiao Sun will also take us to the mountain temple to worship and have a temple fair to get closer to the people."
In the end, a 'big leader' took the lead and made the decision. The words were very vague, but the meaning was obvious.
…
In the next few days, the city sent people to express condolences to Li Minghai and others.
However, it was okay not to mention the mountain. Li Minghai and others changed their expressions when they mentioned the mountain, let alone develop it.
Judging from their expressions, it seems that they are unwilling to step into the mountains again in this life.
In the end, after unanimous consideration, the city ordered the cancellation of the Longyuan Mountain project development and planned to re-select the site.
After hearing the news, both Sun Zhenbang and the villagers breathed a sigh of relief, and even Li Minghai and the others were relieved.
Li Minghai and the others had been recovering for several days that day. Seeing that their bodies had almost recovered, they could finally be discharged from the hospital.
I immediately bought a lot of fruits and gifts and arrived at Longyuan Village.
The two groups of people who were at war with each other before almost got into a fight over this, but now they were able to sit together and talk calmly. This was something no one expected.
Li Minghai and others handed the gift to the village chief and apologized solemnly.
"Village Chief, I'm really sorry. It was all our fault in the first place, but in the end you helped us a lot despite the past grudges. I'm ashamed!"
Li Minghai and others learned from Sun Zhenbang that when they were unconscious, the villagers came to help and carried them down the mountain.
"You're welcome, you're welcome."
Looking back now, Li Minghai and the others didn't do anything wrong. They just had different positions and angles. Now that they have talked everything out of the way, it can be said that both sides have laughed away their grudges.
After this incident, Li Minghai looked full of emotion, "No matter what, I still want to thank you."
Looking at the green mountains not far away, his expression showed subtle fear and panic.
Although the memory before the coma was a little blurry, I still haven't recalled what happened.
But every time he thought about related things, Li Minghai always felt palpitated. He always felt that it was a very scary thing, otherwise how could it leave such a heavy shadow.
It is no exaggeration to say that whenever he sees that big mountain, he can't help but feel a chill coming out of his feet and goosebumps all over his body.
Li Minghai quickly looked away.
"By the way, village chief, when we come here this time, we also want to pay homage to the mountain temple and express our apologies. I wonder if that's okay."
Li Minghai and others were all atheists before, but after this incident, he completely changed his views.
Although they have forgotten most of their memories of being comatose on the mountain, the impact it had on them was huge. Looking back now, they still have lingering fears.
They have even decided to set up an altar, burn incense and worship Buddha after returning home.
The village chief was stunned for a moment, as if he did not expect that Li Minghai would make such a request. After all, before this, Li Minghai had even said shamelessly that he would demolish the mountain temple.
"sure."
Of course it is a good thing to have offerings. This means that the mountain gods in Longyuan Mountain are flourishing and the mountain gods will get better and better.
Led by the village chief, the group came to the mountain temple.
Li Minghai and others were hesitant. For some reason, the closer he got to the temple, the faster his heart beat, as if it would jump out of his chest in the next second.
The village chief asked a little puzzled: "Why doesn't Mr. Li come in?"
The mountain temple is not big, and the decorations inside are also very simple. In the center is a huge snake statue, the carving is lifelike, as if it is coming to life.
The snake head happened to be facing Li Minghai and others.
After seeing the snake statue clearly, Li Minghai and others gasped, as if a certain scene in their memory was touched, and their faces instantly turned pale.
It was as if they had seen this scene somewhere before, and a sense of familiarity came over them, arousing the shadow in their hearts.
Once they think about it carefully, the fear and darkness are like a tide rushing towards them, seeming to be contained in their throats, making them unable to breathe.
Vaguely, there seemed to be a white-bone Taoist standing next to the snake statue, sometimes turning into a woman, sometimes turning into a skeleton.
The psychological shadow was so great that he began to hallucinate.
"Then, village chief, may I ask, why is there a snake statue enshrined in the mountain temple?"
If you listen carefully, Li Minghai's voice is trembling.
The village chief smiled and said, "Because this is our mountain god."
The hands of Li Minghai and others holding the incense kept shaking, and the expressions on their faces were frightened, but more of fear and respect.
They tried their best to endure the fear and panic in their hearts, and kowtowed incense respectfully. It can be said that they were extremely pious.
It was obviously not hot inside the temple, it could even be said to be cool, but after doing these actions, they were sweating profusely, and their backs were even wet with sweat.
"Master Mountain God, please be generous and forgive us. We were blind to the mountains and offended you. I hope you won't blame us."
Li Minghai and others muttered words, apologized constantly, and even gave money to the village chief, saying it was incense money.
The village chief quickly refused, "We appreciate your kindness, but we can't accept the money. Our mountain temple never wants this. We are all sincere."
Li Minghai nodded repeatedly and felt that after worshiping at the mountain temple, he felt much more comfortable and less stressed.
Originally, they wanted to stay with them for dinner, but Li Minghai and others kept it secret and declined the village chief's kindness.
Looking at their hurried backs, as if they were being chased by some wild beast, the village chief and others were a little confused.
The village chief and the others didn't think much about it. Anyway, the matter was finally resolved.
After Li Minghai and others left Longyuan Village and finished handling the finishing touches of the project, they were ready to leave Fog City.
They were not originally from here, but came here just because of the investment promotion for this project.
Now that the Longyuan Mountain project has given up development, they have not wasted time here, and naturally it is time to leave.
Originally, everyone planned to go shopping around to relax, but with so many things happening, no one was in the mood.
Although they had worshiped in the mountain temple and sincerely admitted their mistakes, everyone was still a little uneasy.
Someone in the team suggested: "Why don't we go to the famous Taoist temple nearby and pay homage again, and just burn incense and accumulate blessings for ourselves."
This proposal was approved by many people, who hoped to burn more incense and pray for the blessings of gods and Buddhas in the sky.
"I heard that there is a very famous Taoist temple nearby. Although it is a bit remote, it is still very popular. Many people went to check in before. I heard about it before I came to Fog City."
Everyone drove there immediately, and according to the navigation location, they soon arrived at No. 76 Ming'an Avenue.
"The Taoist temple should be nearby."
According to the location indicated by the navigation, everyone stepped onto the bluestone steps.
Among the green pines and cypresses, ancient buildings are looming. Although there is a sense of vicissitudes of life, it is precisely because of this that it adds a lot of historical weight to it.
Looking at the Taoist temple on the trail, everyone felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if they had seen it somewhere.
"Do you think this Taoist temple looks familiar?"
As soon as these words came out, many people agreed with it and looked confused.
"I thought I was the only one who felt familiar, but none of us have been here before."
"Could it be that I saw it in a dream?"
Everyone was sure that this was their first time coming to this area and they had never been here before.
So where does this sense of familiarity come from?
In addition, there is an indescribable fear in their hearts, which seems to be an instinct from the bottom of their hearts.
Ever since I woke up, I would feel this way whenever I was close to Longyuan Mountain.
Now that they are one hundred and eight thousand meters away from Longyuan, it is logically impossible for them to have such emotions again.
With a subtle mood, everyone approached the Taoist temple and looked at the powerful characters on the plaque. Everyone seemed to have touched a certain switch. They were stunned in place with stiff expressions and fell into a horrified silence.
【Shangqing Temple! 】
The faces of Li Minghai and others turned pale little by little.
If they remembered correctly, it seemed that the Taoist temple they met deep in the mountains also had this name!
How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
The familiar feeling of déjà vu, the exact same Taoist temple name...
Everyone looked at each other, couldn't help but swallow their saliva, looked at each other and then looked up at the big sun, as well as the people coming and going around, chattering, and finally walked into the Taoist temple tremblingly.
Even the furnishings inside were similar to the scene, which aroused the fear deep in the hearts of Li Minghai and others, but the memory of that day had been blurred, and only scattered memory fragments came to mind again.
Their faces grew paler.
Although they couldn't remember most of the things clearly, the shadow still lingered, causing them to look around suspiciously.
I was afraid that something strange would suddenly pop up around me.
Fortunately, the statues enshrined here are all normal. In addition, there are people coming and going around, and the smell of fireworks is very strong, which also makes them feel at ease a little bit.
"Blessings are immeasurable, the donors are pale, but do you need help?"
The sudden sound next to them startled them. When they turned around, they saw a white-haired old Taoist priest holding a whisk in his hand and asking with concern on his face.
"I was shocked. I thought it was Taoist White Bones!"
Everyone was frightened, but when they saw that he was an old Taoist with immortal style, they were relieved. As long as there were no skeletons hidden in the Taoist robes.
"How do white bones become enlightened? Could it be that they transformed into feathers and ascended, abandoning their physical bodies?"
The old man joked with a smile.
Li Minghai shook his head, "No, no, we were joking."
After a slight pause in his tone, Li Minghai asked again: "Taoist Priest, I would like to ask, are there any other Shangqing temples in other places in Fog City?"
The Taoist priest shook his head in surprise, "Donor, are you kidding me? There is only one Shangqing Temple in the country, let alone the foggy city."
Looking at the kind-hearted face of the old Taoist, it seemed to have a calming power, which slightly calmed the panic of Li Minghai and others.
"Let's talk to an expert. It might be useful."
"Yes, this Taoist priest looks like he is a master of Taoism."
Hearing the whispers of his companions, Li Minghai finally couldn't help but said: "Taoist Priest, to be honest, we encountered a strange thing recently."
The old Taoist knew what he was doing. Seeing the guilty conscience of these people, he knew there was something wrong in their minds. He smiled and asked, "Why is it so strange?"
Li Minghai swallowed: "We encountered a Shangqing Temple in other places that is exactly the same as yours!"
The old Taoist's expression perked up and he said, "Tell me in detail."
Subsequently, Li Minghai told his experience, but only when he said, because of the vague memory, it was a bit confusing.
It was strange that Lao Dao heard it, but he could see that he could see it. Li Minghai did not seem to lie.
"You mean, I also encountered a Qingguan in the Wudu Longyuan Mountain, and the layout is similar to this? It's just weird?"
Li Minghai and others nodded, and then showed a self -deprecating smile.
"Taoist, I know it is difficult to believe this, but it is indeed our personal experience.
"When we first saw this view of Taoism, we were also surprised. There were such the same Taoist outlook in the world."
Lao Dao groaned and asked, "What do you say about Shangqing Guan, what are the weirdness?"
Li Minghai's expression was quite awe, and said seriously: "There is a white bone in that view, which attracts us, but it does not worship the Taoist fairy, but is worshiped.
Speaking of which, there was a companion who pulled him next to him.
Li Minghai realized that he was a bit more said. It is often said that Tao Tianji cannot be leaked, and some words have to bear the consequences.
He didn't continue to say anything behind him, and his face became taboos. He finally stopped his mouth to avoid adding things.
Later, after the crowd spoke towards the old way, the party hurriedly left, and did not dare to treat it in the same model in this model.
Looking at the back of Li Minghai and others, Lao Dao's eyes also fell into the distance, with a bit of inquiry and doubts.
"Longyuan Mountain?"
Is there really an exactly the same Taoist outlook in the mountains that are dozens of kilometers away?
There is also a white bone Taoist?
"An apprentice, go out with a teacher in a few days."
Turning back to the back hall, he saw the apprentice who was looking at the words with Xiangke, and said hello.
"Where to go?"
The little head didn't lift the inquiry.
Lao Dao stood at the face of the table, and subconsciously went to the pillar fragrance. Then he returned to God and replied: "Go to him and visit a white bones."
Little burst more, ask for a monthly ticket!
