Breaking away from the leisurely life of the past few days, Li Lan took Miss Wang to Yiqing Temple.
The small village under Yiqingguan is called Bagua Village, which is an ancient village dating back thousands of years. Because of this reliance on Qing Guan, it has also developed over the years.
Yiqingguan, which is so popular in incense, even bought down many houses in the village and built them as inns for pilgrims who came from afar to rest.
Relying on the power of offering incense to the gods, the purpose of being a deity was to make practitioners cherish the world and reflect on themselves, but now it has become a means of making profits. Li Lan followed Miss Wang and looked at the Bagua Village. I felt increasingly uncomfortable.
The white walls are connected with black tiles, and the drizzle covers the gauze clothes. It's not surprising to hear the chirping of insects and birds from time to time. This beautiful and quiet scene makes it difficult to distinguish between good and evil.
"Miss Lan, it looks like people are living and working in peace and contentment in this small village."
Miss Wang has a lively temperament, but she really doesn't know much about the world. Where can we really encounter these dark and humiliating things in our daily life?
"Miss Lan, there are always fights and fights in our village. This village is really peaceful... If there is a chance in the future, I would like to bring my parents to live here. When the children grow up in the future, , parents can also spend their remaining years here.”
Seeing that Li Lan was speechless for a long time, and remembering what Li Lan said in the inn before, Miss Wang still planned to trust what Li Lan said, "What does Miss Lan mean that this Bagua Village is not normal?"
Not only is it abnormal, Li Lan thought to herself - looking at the construction of this Bagua Village, it is the opposite of the ordinary Bagua. It seems that the original purpose of the builders was definitely not for normal people to live.
What's more, the village was unusually quiet. Not to mention that there were few people walking on the streets, the village seemed lifeless. I don't know if Yi Qingguan had done anything to it.
Not seeing anyone, Li Lan just intuitively felt something was wrong. Only when he saw the seventy-year-old man walking briskly not far away did Li Lan fully realize what was wrong.
The old man was surrounded by lifeless energy, but he could walk as fast as flying. The sun was still shining brightly a mile away, but when we arrived at Bagua Village, the sky had completely changed.
"Girl?" Miss Wang had just been possessed by the ghost not long ago, and her body was full of yin energy at this time. Looking at the old man in front of her, she felt a chill down her spine and the hair on her hair stood on end.
Li Lan held Miss Wang's hand and said, "Sister Wang." After these days of conditioning, Li Lan's hand was warm, which made Miss Wang feel more at ease.
"Are you two girls going to stay in a hotel?" The old man obviously didn't mean any harm and greeted the two girls politely.
Because Li Lan was by her side, Miss Wang became a little more courageous. Thinking of Li Lan's previous arrangements, she nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes..."
"Then just follow me, old man." The old man immediately turned around and led the way. After walking only two steps, he turned back and said, "Are you two girls here to visit Yiqing Temple?"
With the previous conversation, the old man on the left and right did not eat her, and with Li Lan by her side, Miss Wang was no longer as scared as before.
"Yes, my sister is not in good health and we came here to seek medical treatment."
"That girl is in the right place."
The old man was walking in front, and he seemed to be no different from any ordinary old man, even the same as the shopkeeper in the county town that day.
"The village is not busy at this time. Later in the evening, business people and people visiting the temple will come to the street."
The old man introduced enthusiastically. If it weren't for the chill that enveloped him, and if it weren't for the weird atmosphere that was revealed everywhere in the village, then Miss Wang would really have thought that the old man was as kind as he appeared.
"Girl, this Yi Qing Guan is really good. The only problem is that it has too many rules."
"Well, I've heard of it, little girl." Miss Wang was smart and nervous. She was no longer afraid at this time, and she could naturally show off her abilities. "Anything that can cure my sister is good."
"The two girls and sisters are really close."
The old man and Li Lan just walked back and forth, heading deeper into the village.
Along the way, the old man did not take any time off. Just like those hospitable old people in ordinary villages, he cared about visitors and introduced his hometown.
When he arrived at the door of a courtyard, the old man stopped, knocked on the door knocker, and shouted inside: "A new guest has come, has the house been cleaned?"
There was a sound of cloth shoes scraping against the ground, and the door latch was opened from the inside.
