I, Dasheng Sun, swear not to become a Buddha

Page 909

Every room was checked, but nothing was found.

It is certain that no one has been here for a long time.

Back in the village, the monk's footprints disappeared in the very center of the village.

Here is an open space, there are not many weeds on the open space.

It looked like it should have been a square once, and the ground was rammed firmly, so there were no overgrown weeds like the outside.

"Who is there!"

When Monkey King was standing in the open space feeling the breath of Buddhism, a voice came from outside the village.

Monkey King looked back and saw a man with a bow and arrow standing on the hillside outside the village.

Walking out of the village quickly, the man looked at Sun Wukong warily and asked, "You...are you a human or a ghost!"

Monkey King saw that he had a small pheasant hanging from his waist and a cloth bag on his back.

With a sweep of consciousness, there are several animal traps in the cloth bag.

"This little brother. I am... a spy from Dali Temple. I just chased an imperial court and invaded here. That person disappeared after entering the deserted village." Monkey King flashed a token as he spoke.

It is indeed the sign of Dali Temple, but it was created by himself.

"It turns out that you are an adult, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The man clasped his fists and saluted.

This man is a hunter, and his family lives in a village ten miles away.

"My lord, are you a stranger?" Orion seemed to know a lot.

"Exactly! How do you know about other people?"

A young man in the barren mountains ran all over the mountains, and it was a bit unreasonable, so Monkey King accepted the identity of a stranger.

"So that's the case. The villain used to work in the riding battalion, so he knows some secret things." The man explained.

Looking at his figure, Monkey King really thought he was from the army.

And there is no special aura about him, just an ordinary mortal.

"Do you know what's weird about this village?" Sun Wukong asked.

Just now this person saw him from a distance and asked him if he was a man or a ghost, presumably he knew something.

"My lord. This village has been deserted for 20 years. Since I was a child, I have heard the old people at home talk about ghosts living in the village." The man clasped his fists and replied.

It turns out that this village was originally called Xiashan Village.

Twenty years ago, because of a plague, all the people in the village died.

It was several months later when the people in the nearby villages discovered that the people in this village were all dead.

Since then there have been various rumors.

Some said that they had seen ghosts near Xiashan Village, and some said that the ghosts who died in Xiashan Village reappeared.

Some people say that Xiashan Village is a cursed and unknown place.

Anyway, no one dares to come to this place.

If this Orion hadn't been a member of the army and had some martial arts, he wouldn't have come here to hunt.

"Haunted?" Sun Wukong frowned and thought.

How could this deserted Xiashan Village be haunted?

He went in and checked it himself just now, let alone haunted, he didn't even see a ghost.

Seeing Sun Wukong frowning, Orion continued: "My lord! The villain didn't believe this. But last month, the villain also saw a monk walk into the village with his own eyes."

"The monk went in and never came out again. At that time, the villain also had the courage to explore the vicinity, but nothing was found in the village. The monk seemed to have disappeared out of thin air."

"Monk?" Sun Wukong was taken aback, did monks go in before?

"Do you remember what that monk looks like?" Sun Wukong asked.

"Of course I remember. The villain was a sentry in the chariot battalion back then, and he has very good eyesight." Orion patted his chest and said.

"Are these people?" Sun Wukong took out a portrait, which showed Mingxuan and the four disciples.

After careful identification, Orion shook his head embarrassedly and said, "No. The villain has never seen these five monks before."

"It seems that there should be many monks similar to Mingxuan!" Sun Wukong frowned in thought.

"My lord, it's getting late, I think you should leave first. There may really be ghosts haunting this village at night." Orion persuaded.

"There will be ghosts at night?" Sun Wukong was taken aback, looked at Orion and asked.

Chapter 1231 Ning Caichen Visits the Ghost Village at Night

"This villain is not sure either. He just heard from the senior Orion in the village that there seems to be ghosts wandering in Xiashan Village at night."

Orion said in a low voice, and then looked at the deserted Xiashan Village.

"Thank you for reminding me, the man who escaped is an important criminal of the court, but I can't just leave. Don't worry, brother, I still have some means, but I am not afraid of ghosts." Monkey King thanked Orion with his hands clasped.

"In this case, the villain will leave first."

Orion shook his head and was no longer persuading, he cupped his fists and left.

As night fell, the Xiashan Village was surprisingly quiet after dusk, and even the sound of insects could not be heard at all.

The only sound was the occasional rustling of the grass by a slight breeze.

At three o'clock in the unitary hour, the last ray of light disappeared.

Xiashan Village was completely plunged into darkness.

Sun Wukong is on the mountainside outside Xiashan Village with the invisible cat.

Nor did he wait openly in the village.

The main reason is that I don't know what will happen at night. If a master comes out, it is easy to expose Xingzang.

To be on the safe side, it's better to hide outside and check secretly.

"Dangdangdang~" At the second quarter of Xu Shi, Jingcun remembered the sound of a beating watch.

Suddenly, there was an extremely violent vibration in Sun Wukong's palm, and a ghost with evil spirit appeared.

In a deserted village, someone actually made a watch?

Monkey King moved his eyes and looked over, and an old man appeared in the open space in the center of the village.

The old man started to walk around the neighborhood with a playing tool in his hand.

While walking, he was still knocking on the clapper.

After the old man left, more than a dozen ghosts with the appearance of villagers appeared in the center of the village.

They entered those abandoned houses as if they were living.

Some are cooking in front of the stove facing the air, while others are carrying a hoe to weed the grass that can't be hoeed at all.

Sun Wukong's eyes never left the center of the village, these ghosts could be wiped out by him.

What he cared about was why the ghost suddenly appeared.

"gate of hell?"

Monkey King finally discovered the clue.

In the middle of that village, there is a ghost gate hidden!

These ghosts came out of that ghost gate!

"That's not right! Why is there a ghost gate here? And it's not found at all during the day!" Monkey King really couldn't figure it out.

After waiting for a while, it was already the third watch, and the number of ghosts in the village had increased to more than 40 and stopped increasing.

They are all doing their own things, and they seem to be really living.

After confirming that no master appeared, Monkey King decided to go to explore.

I saw him change suddenly, changed his clothes, and became a scholar with a book basket on his back.

With another gesture of the hand, dark clouds floated in the sky, and then it began to rain.

It is the art of praying for rain.

The rain was not too heavy, and the ghosts were not affected by the rain, and continued to do their own things.

Sun Wukong covered his head and braved the rain, trotting all the way to Xiashan Village.

"Dangdangdang~" came the voice of the watchdog, and Monkey King had already arrived at the entrance of the village.

"Where did you come from?" The old man Da Geng asked with a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Old man! Late student... Ning Caichen is a student on a hurry. The mountain road is rough and the student got lost in the rain. There is a place in the village where he can spend the night."

Sun Wukong said to the old man who beat the watch while covering the rain.

The ghosts in the village are all cultivated around Huashen, and it is impossible for them to detect Monkey King's disguise.

The old man at watch saw a living person running towards him, and there was a hint of greed in his eyes.

"This Mr. Ning. The little old man has a residence there. If you don't think it's mean, you might as well go to my place." Da Genggui said to Monkey King with a smile.

He stood in the rain without an umbrella or coir raincoat. The rain hit him and penetrated directly, and Sun Wukong could only see it when it was dark.

"Thank you, old man. Then..." Sun Wukong still wanted to follow the plan.

As a result, another old woman came to the village.

"Old Zhang! Go beat your Geng! This son is a noble man, how can he go to your poor house!" The old woman scolded the old man who beat Geng.

The old man was obviously very afraid of the old woman. Although there was greed in his eyes, he couldn't afford to offend her, so he could only walk away in despair.

"Young Master Ning, right? Go to Laoshen's house. Laoshen asks my granddaughter to cook you a bowl of hot soup. Drink a bowl of hot soup on rainy days to warm up your body. My granddaughter's cooking skills are great!" the old woman walked up to Monkey King and said Said enthusiastically.

"Thank you mother-in-law. That Xiaosheng is bothering you! Forgive me, forgive me." Monkey King thanked.

"It's okay, let's go, follow me closely. People in the village don't like outsiders, be careful that they harm you!" the old woman said sternly.

After following the old woman for a few steps, someone came to snatch Monkey King again.

But they were all forced back by the sharp eyes of the old woman.

Sun Wukong knew that this old woman was the most cultivated among this group of ghosts, she had already reached the peak of becoming a god.

So the other ghosts didn't dare to provoke her, they could only watch helplessly as she took a living person home.

"Damn Mrs. Nie! Another bad thing for me!" Da Geng's old man hid in the darkness and muttered.

"Hmph! It's too much to snatch living souls just because of your own cultivation and not give us any food!" There were also other ghosts cursing in a low voice.

"It's because she has a granddaughter who works as a maid beside the king! Otherwise, the two of us will join forces and swallow him directly!" You Na complained fiercely, but he was afraid of the old woman's background.

None of these ghosts' words escaped the monitoring of Monkey King's consciousness.

He was even more curious about the village.

What secret is hidden here?

He followed the old woman through the central square just now, but in the square, he couldn't feel the existence of the ghost gate at all.

Sun Wukong even used the method of psychic communication to set the underworld opposite here as the coordinate point, even though the method of psychic communication could not perceive the existence of the ghost gate.

It seems that there is only one secret passage that can walk the two worlds of Yin and Yang.

"Could it be a temporary passage between the two worlds?" Sun Wukong was not sure.

There are very few such temporary passages between the two worlds.

The one who can open this kind of temporary passage is at least a ghost emperor-level god of the underworld.

As for Yang people or monks who want to set up such a passage, it is estimated that they must be saints.

After thinking about it all the way, Monkey King arrived at the old woman's house.

From the mouths of other ghosts, he already knew the situation of the old woman's house.

Her family name is Liu, and her husband's family name is Nie, so some ghosts call her Nie Liu.
