But I didn't care. Even if they went to the City God's Temple with me, there was no way they could overhear anything.
For me, it was entirely because Uncle Huang was a good character and I didn't understand his plan for the plague ghosts, so I didn't reveal the information to Huang Si.
Soon, a taxi stopped. After I got in, I told me the approximate location in the suburbs, and we got on the road.
This was right at the evening rush hour, and the road was very congested. I hadn’t rested for a long time, and my brain was aching slightly, so I closed my eyes to rest.
…
"Dude, wake up, buddy?"
Someone tapped me twice on my shoulder, and I opened my eyes with a start.
The driver smiled and told me that we had arrived at the right place. There was more traffic than usual today.
I gave the money and pushed the door open to get out of the car.
Holding on to a tree trunk on the side of the road, I squinted my eyes and felt the ironing sun.
Another gust of cool breeze hit me, and I finally woke up.
I didn’t sleep for long in the car, but under these circumstances, even a short nap restored my energy a lot.
Scanning left and right, this is not where the City God's Temple is.
After roughly identifying the direction, I walked forward.
The sense of following has become weaker, but it is still there.
The suburbs are big, and the small location error took me more than 20 minutes.
When we reached the Tianqiao Road and then walked to the Chenghuang Temple, the dusk was very deep.
The Chenghuang Temple is a little lively today, with many people offering incense and praying for blessings.
I didn't see Uncle Huang's people, so I could only stand in the hall and wait.
Time passed little by little, and I kept holding the phone tightly and paying attention to the screen.
After most of the afternoon, Hong Si still hadn't found Chu Ying's location, which made me even more upset.
There were fewer and fewer people in the main hall. After it became completely dark, the crowd finally dispersed.
The incense sticks in the copper stove were burning faintly, and white smoke lingered on the tops of the three statues.
Uncle Huang finally walked out from behind the statue with his hands behind his back.
"Little friend Xian Shen, why are you here?" Uncle Huang said in a calm tone, his face immediately condensed, and he glanced outside the City God's Temple.
"Uncle Huang, Chuying, she..."
I tried my best to stay calm and recounted everything that happened today.
Uncle Huang's expression gradually became alarmed and uncertain.
A cold and stern gaze fell from the top of his head.
Even though I had dealt with Si Ye several times, I still couldn't help but glance up.
Si Ye floated in the beams with his arms connected, his two pale faces full of fierceness.
I looked away and added something to Uncle Huang.
"The people from Huangsi are following me."
Uncle Huang exhaled heavily and said: "There is nothing wrong with what you did. The reason why I did not communicate this information with Huang Si is because the lower nine streams of Yin Qi are too heavy, which is a good tonic for plague ghosts. "
"During this period, the supervisors have been investigating this matter with me, but they have encountered some troubles and have restricted their manpower. Unexpectedly, the plague ghost is causing trouble at this juncture. You still have to contact Mr. Huang. Please destroy the two corpses immediately."
Uncle Huang also explained to me that the souls of living people who died after being devoured by plague ghosts were forcibly stripped of their physical bodies. The resentment in the flesh was extremely strong and would attract all kinds of ghosts and wandering souls. They would be dominated by the resentment and turn into walking corpses. , extremely fierce.
My expression changed again, and I didn't hesitate to call Manager Yang.
As a result, the mobile phone screen lit up at the same time, and Yang Guan called in advance.
My heart skipped a beat and I immediately connected.
"Nephew Xian Shen, we have found the location of Chu Ying, but the place is very troublesome and there is going to be a problem." Manager Yang's solemn voice came.
"What's the trouble?" I asked with a frown.
Only then did Manager Yang explain to me that Chuying's car had disappeared into an abandoned old village in the southern suburbs of the city.
The problem lies in the old village.
In fact, long before the development of Jinyang City, that village had been marked as a prison. The unfinished building was considered a Class C prison, but the abandoned old village was a Class B prison.
No one knows how the hell was formed, but when things started happening there, it became a forbidden area where no one could enter. The Emperor Huangsi couldn't take care of it at all, and the supervisors sent Taoist priests in all year round, but they couldn't clean it up.
Through their several interactions with the supervisors, they learned a little bit about the situation. There used to be a murderer in the abandoned old village, and he killed an unknown number of people.
At this point, Manager Yang's tone was a bit difficult: "Nephew Xian Shen, this matter is beyond the scope of Huang Si's ability. Although Chu Ying has a different identity, we really can't take care of it. I have to advise you, you'd better not take care of it. Yes, Si Huang has a way to hide your aura so that the ghosts staring at you can't find you."
"If there is a ghost emerging from the abandoned village, we must report this matter to the supervision immediately."
Manager Yang was full of helplessness and caution.
I could tell that he wasn't pretentious.
Goosebumps covered his whole body, and the knuckles that were clutching the phone turned white.
I was silent for a few seconds and then said: "I will take care of this matter. You can't interfere, so don't interfere. Send me the address of the village, and then do one more thing, put Shi Qing and another person together." Destroy Gu Zhaoping’s body! You have to do it quickly, otherwise they will attract the ghosts and ghosts! It will not be good for you, Mr. Huang!"
My tone was serious.
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a long time before he said, "I'll send it to you later. My nephew, please think twice."
The phone hangs up.
Soon, I received a text message with the address on it.
I briefly explained the content of the call to Uncle Huang.
"Qijia Village..." Uncle Huang's expression changed again.
"Do you know where it is!?" I felt a little happy, thinking that Uncle Huang might be able to provide me with more information.
Uncle Huang took a deep breath, his face became more and more tense, and then he said: "Hundreds of people died in Qijia Village back then, and not a single soul came to report it. The Yin Division came forward, visited the village, and lost one man... "
"The unfinished building you dealt with before was just one ghost. The other ghosts were attracted by the yin energy. They would not be consistent with it. It was not that the supervisors were unwilling to take care of it. It was because they thought it was not troublesome enough, so they simply let Huang It’s just handled by the Secretary.”
"But in Qijia Village, there is really nothing we can do about supervision. They have never stopped investigating the village over the years. They have cleared a safe area on the outside and let the disciples practice, but no one dares to enter it..."
"The plague ghost has entered..." Uncle Huang's face gradually turned ugly.
At this moment, I was enlightened as if I was enlightened, and I was surprised and wondered: "Does he want to eat the ghost inside?!"
The hall became extremely quiet.
Uncle Huang nodded and whispered: "Si Ye and Ri Xun did not dare to be too conspicuous in that village. Even if the plague ghost has the characteristic of eating ghosts, it is not something that can be eaten by any ghost. It must be during this period of time, Ri Xun Alternate patrols with Si Ye, coupled with supervised searches in the dark, made it difficult for him to take supplements. The village was too dangerous. He might capsize in the ditch and be torn apart by other ghosts, or maybe..."
Uncle Huang's words stopped abruptly.
Although the second half of the sentence was not finished, it is self-evident.
After a while, he said to me again: "Little friend Xian Shen, you go to Huangsi first. I have to go find the supervising elder. This matter is beyond your ability."
"Chu Ying... I'm afraid it's not going to be good either."
Uncle Huang couldn't bear it in his eyes, but he still made the gesture of inviting people to see him off!
