Yin Shou Shu

Chapter 122 The Evil God is Watching
Ran Qing stared at the three pairs of cloth shoes guarding the only entrance and exit of the stone chamber, silently estimating the distance.

The distance between the three pairs of shoes and them was about ten steps.

Ran Qing squatted down, picked up the red rope figurines on the ground, held them in his hands, and injected Yin energy into them.

The next second, Ran Qing threw out more than twenty red rope figurines at the same time.

The little people tied with straight red ropes flew out like sharp arrows, and hit the entrance of the stone chamber and the place where the three pairs of cloth shoes were.

However, in the reflection of the bronze mirror, the three pairs of cloth shoes were intact.

The little man with the red rope seemed to penetrate a phantom and did not touch anything.

Ran Qing's tentative attack was declared invalid.

Ran Qing looked gloomy when he saw this scene.

He had guessed this possibility before, but he didn't expect his premonition to come true.

"...If you can't see them, you can't touch them. Right now, these three scapegoats aren't entities yet."

Probably only when they come closer and stand at the feet of Ran Qing and the other two, will these three evil ghosts appear.

But by then, will it be too late?

"Let's go out first!" Ran Qing said with a gloomy face: "Dig out the evil god statue first."

As he spoke, Ran Qing took a step forward and walked towards the three pairs of cloth shoes.

In the reflection of the bronze mirror, as Ran Qing approached actively, one of the three pairs of cloth shoes actually retreated, keeping a distance of only ten steps from Ran Qing.

Mo Li, who saw this scene, was surprised and said: "The power of this evil god is so strange..."

The three pairs of shoes kept a strict distance from each other, which made the horror of the death prophecy even more apparent.

Ran Qing had a hunch that once these three pairs of shoes were under their feet, Aunt Six would probably be dead if she came...

The evil god watching over this ruined Taoist temple in the dark is too strange and mysterious.

Ran Qing felt the pressure again.

He walked quickly forward, and Mo Li and Xiao Mianhua followed.

The three of them walked out of the dark stone chamber unhindered, and the three pairs of shoes reflected in the mirror also retreated into the shadows outside the stone chamber.

Ran Qing's mirror was always facing the three pairs of shoes, but he did not stop and began to run back the way he came.

He wanted to return to the surface and dig out the evil statue buried in the yard.

"First, dig out the evil idol, then bring it back to the altar below and open the altar. I want to negotiate with Him!"

This is the only way at the moment.

Negotiating with evil spirits is the specialty of ghost walkers.

But the main reason was that the power of this evil god was too strange. Ran Qing, a rookie who had just started learning the art of ghost walking and had no experience in catching ghosts, could not think of any way to counter it.

Compared with this terrifying and weird evil god, the old ghost who has lived for a thousand years is not that scary.

At least Ran Qing's destiny card did indeed curse the old ghost, and it was easier for a ghost to be dealt with by a ghost...

Facing a dead end, Ran Qing can only choose the lesser of two evils!
The dark and cold tunnel quickly receded as Ran Qing ran. The pale limestones on both sides of the tunnel looked like pale dead faces squeezed in the darkness under the light of the flashlight.

Soon, they returned to the underground cave where the three coffins were placed.

There are stairs leading to the ground hall.

The three strange and ferocious pictures were still hanging in the three broken coffins.

But at this time, the shoes on the feet of the two Taoist priests with immortal looks and stepping on cranes in the picture, as well as the evil ghost in the coffin in the middle, have changed.

No longer just one pair of embroidered shoes, but two pairs of cloth shoes, one large and one small.

Instead, it turned into a pair of adult cloth shoes with plastic soles, the same as the shoes on Ran Qing's feet.

A pair of elegant white leather shoes, the same as the ones Mo Li was wearing. The remaining Taoist priest was now barefoot, without shoes.

When Ran Qing rushed into the underground cave and saw the three paintings in the coffin, he was stunned.

"Is this announcing our death in advance..."

Ran Qing murmured.

A dull sound was heard from the hall above.

The noise was like three heavy giants walking on the ground, and it sounded strangely creepy.

Mo Li asked in a low voice: "What should we do with these three clay statues?"

Before, after Ran Qing and his companions entered the underground, the three headless statues on the shrine in the main hall began to move, walking around in the hall above.

Now that Ran Qing and the others want to get out, the three headless statues wandering in the main hall have become obstacles that they must overcome.

Ran Qing glanced back and said, "Nine steps left..."

The three pairs of cloth shoes followed again.

They moved one step every two minutes, so Ran Qing and his team only had 18 minutes left... or even less.

The shadow of death was getting closer and closer. Ran Qing walked up the stairs and wanted to see what was happening outside.

But before he could stick his head out to observe, the movement in the hall above his head stopped.

Ran Qing's body stiffened as he thought of a possibility.

He raised the flashlight and carefully shone the light overhead.

Under the pale light, three paper-mache heads huddled in the shadows above the stairwell, staring intently at Ran Qing. The massive, heavy body of the headless statue stood like three mountains, looking down coldly.

At this moment, the three headless statues truly had the majesty of gods looking down on all living beings.

Ran Qing felt a little numb as he was looked down upon indifferently by them.

These three headless statues are so huge and heavy that if they were hit by a punch, they might be turned into meat patties directly...

Mo Li's voice appeared from behind.

"What's wrong? What did you see?" Mo Li whispered, "Why is there no movement up there?"

The girl was a little nervous.

Ran Qing, whose body was frozen at the stairs, slowly retracted his head under the cold gaze of the three headless statues.

"Those three things are blocking the stairs," Ran Qing's face looked a little ugly.

I thought the three headless statues were bulky and wouldn't react quickly. I could escape through the stairs while they weren't paying attention and lead them out of the hall.

After Ran Qing puts on the Nuo opera mask, his physical fitness is one level stronger than that of an ordinary person. His running speed should be difficult for the three headless statues to catch up with.

After he leads the statue away, Mo Li and Xiao Mianhua can escape with him.

But no one expected that the three headless statues would react so quickly. Ran Qing and the others had just arrived in the cave below, and before they could even make any noise, the three headless statues blocked the stairs in time.

"...That evil god doesn't want us to leave!"

Ran Qing's face was gloomy.

When he, Mo Li and Xiao Mianhua entered the cave below the main hall, they deliberately lowered their footsteps and did not make any noise.

It should be impossible to disturb the headless statue above.

But those three headless statues seemed to have X-ray vision and blocked the exit in time...

Ran Qing looked up at the dark cave ceiling, his face gloomy: "That evil god is watching us now!"

Only in this way can we explain the three headless statues that are almost blocking the door in an eerie manner!
