When they met for the second time, Ning Qiushui didn't hesitate at all. After confirming that the ghost weapon was on his body, he chased after the peeper!
By the time Liu Chengfeng reacted, Ning Qiushui had already run more than ten meters.
"Brother, wait for me!"
He shouted to Ning Qiushui who was running in front.
Ning Qiu Shui didn't even look back and ran all the way.
When the peeper saw Ning Qiushui chasing him, a strange smile appeared on his face again and disappeared behind the wall.
By the time Ning Qiushui ran to where it was just now, there was no trace of it at all.
Ning Qiushui looked down and frowned.
Liu Chengfeng also arrived here quickly.
"Oh, brother, please slow down...what's going on?"
Ning Qiushui told him what had just happened, and Liu Chengfeng's expression changed slightly after hearing it.
"Damn, that's pretty scary."
"As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of being missed, but..."
He said, pointing to the ground.
"The ground here is made of dirt and rocks. If someone walks here, he will definitely leave footprints on the ground. Why are there no traces here?"
Ning Qiushui was silent.
He also discovered this problem just now.
And when he returned to the dining hall from the clearing where the body was buried, he also passed under the tree where the peeper had been hiding, but he didn't see any footprints at all.
Could it be that...the other party is not a human being?
What is that guy spying on me for?
Ning Qiushui recalled what she had done in the past three days, and did not feel that she had done anything extraordinary.
Shaking his head, he said to Liu Chengfeng who was squatting on the ground to check:
"Okay, Big Beard, let's go back first."
"Don't worry, little brother...there's something!"
Liu Chengfeng's voice suddenly became extremely serious.
Ning Qiushui, who was already ready to leave, was slightly startled, then looked at Liu Chengfeng with twinkling eyes.
"Big Beard, what did you find?"
Liu Chengfeng sniffed hard.
"It smells like meat."
"Meat?"
"Yeah, meat in meat porridge."
"Why didn't I smell it?"
"My nose is naturally sharper than other people's. Believe me, that guy just now... is probably the one who cooked the meat porridge for us!"
After hearing this, Ning Qiushui seemed to understand why the bearded man's expression was so serious.
"It's really strange why the person who cooked our meat porridge would focus on me, and I didn't drink his porridge..."
Ning Qiushui had some doubts in her heart.
There are still at least five hours before dark, but he can already vaguely feel the so-called "bad things" in Fuhua's mouth!
No matter what, we must try our best to find the missing Mei Wen before dark today!
They quickly returned to the place where they lived and came to room No. 1, where they saw Shen and Shan with solemn expressions.
After seeing Ning Qiushui and Liu Chengfeng appear, they breathed a sigh of relief, and the expressions on their faces were no longer so bad.
"You finally showed up, huh... I thought you had been killed. Just now I was discussing with Shen Weiwei whether to look for you in the temple."
Shan Hong said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"The temple is relatively safe during the day. The ghosts' power seems to be limited during the day. However, according to the time of darkness in the previous two nights, we only have about five hours... Next, I want to tell you something very special. What matters is life and death for all of us.”
Upon hearing what Ning Qiushui said, their expressions immediately became very serious.
"you say!"
Ning Qiushui preached:
"Although we don't know what caused it, the ghosts in the temple are getting stronger...and something happened to Mei Wen that we can't understand. If we didn't help the little monk Fahua before dark today, If we find Mei Wen, some horrors we can't predict will happen tonight!"
"..."
He told the two of them part of the story in detail, including of course the weird peeping person.
"Could that peeper be Mei Wen?"
There was a hint of panic in Shen Weiwei's voice.
If she were to suddenly find someone peeking at her from a distant corner in a huge temple, she would be so frightened that her whole body would tremble!
"It's not clear yet, but it's highly likely."
"Is there something wrong with that little monk? I mean...do we trust him too much?"
Ning Qiushui looked at Shan Hong.
"He is on our side. If he wants to harm us, he has too many opportunities in the first two days."
"And the ghosts and other monks in the temple are also very repulsive to him. If I have to choose, I choose to believe him."
"Also, although it is daytime, I am not sure whether it is safe in the temple during the day, so we are still divided into two groups. Remember to look for people in the temple and never leave alone!"
Shen Weiwei raised her arms high.
"Last question, if we find someone, how do we contact the young monk?"
It is easy for them to contact each other. Their mobile phones have almost never been used so far. The battery on standby is almost full. They can just add each other as a friend.
But the little monk was also very elusive during the day in the temple, and sometimes he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ning Qiushui thought for a moment and suddenly said:
"There is a method, I'm not sure it will work, but you can try it..."
"what way?"
"Ring the bell."
Shen Weiwei rolled her eyes.
"She can't hear you ringing the bell. If she sees you ringing the bell, she will definitely run away!"
Ning Qiushui shook his head.
"uncertain."
"But remember one thing, don't look at her."
"If Mei Wen is really the person who spied on me before, then as soon as she finds out that you have noticed her, she will run away directly. On the contrary, she will keep staring at you."
"Anyway, for the sake of safety tonight, let's give it a try!"
"In the end, no matter whether Mei Wen is found or not, as long as it reaches 19 o'clock, everyone will gather back to where we live."
Everyone nodded.
Soon, the four people divided into two groups and began to search the temple.
Ning Qiushui and the others came to the main hall again.
The difference from before is that this time, the Buddha statues in the main hall have undergone some subtle changes.
When they entered the hall, they could clearly feel a lot of malicious stares!
In fact, they had already noticed it when they first came to this place, but at that time, the feeling was very light and faint, far less intense than it is now.
As the two of them walked around the temple, they discovered that all the Buddha statues in bright red cassocks slowly turned their heads and stared at them!
There was an indescribable hunger and greed in his eyes!
