The few wandering Taoist priests who suddenly appeared in this small temple must be the mountain-moving Taoist priests of the tomb robbers.
There are four main branches of the tomb robbers in Qimen: Mojin Xiaowei, Xiling Lishi, Faqiu Tianguan and Banshan Taoist. These people are different from each other.
Among them, Taoist Banshan is proficient in civil engineering. He usually disguises himself as a Taoist priest and searches for treasures hidden in ancient tombs.
If you find a small treasure, grab it easily. If it is a large treasure, it will take time and the planning must be very rigorous.
They usually build a simple Taoist temple nearby and pretend to be cultivating here. They secretly dig from the ground and quietly rob the tomb.
Then they quietly moved away all the valuables inside. When people found out, the building was already empty, so they were called Mountain Movers.
It is estimated that a few Taoist monks discovered the treasure nearby. There happened to be a ready-made small wild temple, so they took the opportunity to live in it.
After investigation, they found that the treasure was very complicated and beyond their capabilities, so they had no choice but to ask for help.
So I first changed the small temple into a Taoist temple, and then erected three simple statues of Guiguzi, hoping that fellow travelers passing by would find them.
Unfortunately, the reality is cruel. Doing so will attract fellow disciples and also bring disaster.
The bearded men who came in later were certainly not bandits, they were definitely members of the Four Great Qi Sects. I could even conclude that they were from the same group of tomb robbers.
Because the way of doing things of this group of people does not conform to the style of the other three Qi sects, the two Qi sects of chasing corpses and holding back treasures are relatively small in number, each has its own unique way of making money, and it is easy not to participate in other dangerous things. .
There are a lot of people in our exorcist lineage, but most of them think they are noble and we rarely form gangs, let alone secretly do evil things that harm others and do not benefit ourselves.
Only the tomb robbers were the most ruthless, and most of them had some powerful firearms. Maybe after taking out the treasure, the uneven distribution of the spoils triggered internal strife, and several mountain-moving Taoist priests were all killed...
As for someone who later saw a ghost here, it must have been a nearby villager who found a corpse here and made up a story to appease the younger generation.
I don’t know what kind of wealth this is that can make two groups of people fight for their lives!
Also, could this treasure be related to the treasure map in my hand?
I started to think wildly, but when I thought about it, I felt something was wrong.
This place is not that remote, and it is far different from the directions on the treasure map. It should not be the same thing.
"Hey! Zhou Quan, what's wrong with you?" Lan Yue interrupted my meditation and came over and asked doubtfully.
"Ah! It looks a bit familiar. We have an ancient book at home, and there is a picture of an old man named Guiguzi on it. I always think he looks a bit like this statue. Guiguzi has a few moles on his face, which look quite weird. You see, this statue also has them. "I replied.
Lan Yue looked at the statue carefully: "When you said that, I really remembered it. I have also seen Guiguzi's portrait. It really looks like him. It should be him!
"Hey! Didn't you find a plaque for Guigu Temple at the gate of the courtyard? How stupid, I didn't expect this." Lan Yue shook her head.
"This Guiguzi is a great person. Many of our Chinese academics are derived from this person, and he deserves to be worshiped by future generations."
I put my hands together and bent down to salute three times. It was not convenient to kowtow incense on my head under such circumstances, but I still wanted to show respect to the ancestor.
Lan Yue was a little surprised, and other classmates didn't take it seriously when they saw my behavior, thinking that I was a bit feudal and outdated.
Du Jun's eyes flickered. He knew me too well and knew that I would never bow to a statue for no reason. He must have discovered something.
I am not going to tell you these inferences. It has been so many years since these things happened, and there is no other place to go now. Talking too much will have no other effect except to increase their fear.
By this time, the hall was no longer so humid, and the temperature began to rise under the heat of the fire. I opened the broken wooden door and took them for a walk in the courtyard to get some fresh air.
Liu Qingshan went to see his yellow gelding, and the three girls were playing with a few shabby little stone statues at the door. I told Du Jun in a low voice what I had just discovered while no one around me was paying attention.
After hearing this, Du Jun slapped his thigh: "These grandsons don't know how to keep good things for brother Jun. They are greedy people and deserve their short lives.
"Some people are not so lucky and cannot bear such great wealth. If he keeps all the money for me, maybe he will be fine."
I said: "After marching in the army, you still say that people are greedy? I think you are just blind to money."
"Why are you so anxious! With our ability, can we shorten the chance of making a fortune in the future? This is all a small matter. When we find the Qing Dynasty treasure, we will see if you can withstand the fortune?"
Du Jun curled his lips: "What, can't bear it? Even if you give me a gold mountain, Brother Jun will accept it. Didn't Grandma Wang give us two horoscopes back then? We are both destined to be rich and noble!"
"You can get it! That's my horoscope!" I interrupted this guy's shameless behavior.
Du Jun showed no shame on his face and put his arm around my shoulders: "Knife, isn't what you have mine? We are a family! Our dad, our mom, our grandpa..."
"Yes, you didn't eat less of the pig ears my aunt brought me!" I patted his belly.
Du Jun was furious: "Oh, you didn't suffer either. When my family killed a chicken, the chicken feet were not given to each of us..."
This is a habit we have developed over the years. Every time we discuss important matters, we like to joke around to make our brains more relaxed.
"Xiao Dao, why do I feel that Dajin Village is a bit evil?" Du Jun lowered his voice.
"On the way, Liu Qingshan hesitated and said that there was something going on in the village. This temple is a treasure and haunted. It's quite evil, isn't it? It seems that we are in the right place this time. Maybe the treasure map can really find clues here."
I nodded: "It's quite evil. We have to be careful where we go. After a while, when we get familiar with it, we can go into the mountains and have a look..."
The two of us were muttering in a low voice, feeling that the wind around us had become colder again, and when we looked up, the sky became gloomy again.
Liu Qingshan came out of the stable and shouted to us: "Hurry up and get in the house, it's going to rain again."
When we returned to the house, it started thundering outside, followed by lightning one after another. The windows and doors of this main hall have long been dilapidated, and the bright lights in the main hall frightened the few people who originally wanted to rest.
After a while, the rain stopped, thunder could no longer be heard, and electricity was still flashing in the sky.
"This kind of ghost weather is really abnormal. There is only flashing but no thunder. What happened? Isn't it scientific?" Liang Li looked outside and wondered.
The firelight coupled with streaks of lightning made the surrounding statues disappear and appear. It always felt like the atmosphere in the hall was a bit depressing, even a little bit weird.
Involuntarily, I thought about the haunted things Liu Qingshan said. There was lightning and thunder outside, and there were several ghosts sitting together in the hall eating human hot pot.
I don’t know if everyone else also thought of this, but everyone stopped talking and looked at each other with stiff expressions.
I suddenly discovered that the fire in the hall was not as bright as before. The edge of the gleaming flame radiated a light blue color, flickering like a will-o'-the-wisp near a barren grave.
There is indeed something wrong with this small temple. If it doesn't work, leave as soon as possible.
ah! Suddenly there was a shout.
The hearts of several people suddenly trembled, and their hairs stood on end.
