The years of reselling the haunted house

Chapter 379

I shifted my gaze to the little temple they were staring at.

The small temple is very small, only a single temple.It also looks dilapidated and looks like it could collapse at any moment.But although the temple is not big, it looks daunting.

It seems that there should be someone in the temple, and the three standing people didn't dare to make any mistakes at all, and stood there respectfully.

I looked at Lao Xiao, who nodded slightly at me.Obviously this small temple is what he called the mother-in-law temple.Hearing what he said was miraculous, even using the Nantian Gate of Tiangong as a metaphor, I didn't expect it to be such an inconspicuous small temple.

But judging from what Lao Xiao meant, he probably didn't know what those two people were doing standing there. We can only wait and see what happens, and wait until we look down.

At this time, the sky has gradually darkened, and the setting sun in the sky has completely fallen.Only a hint of afterglow is revealed, so that our sight will not be completely affected.

At this moment, a sound suddenly came from the direction of the small temple.

We cheered up and hurriedly looked towards the small temple.I saw that the originally closed temple door was half opened, and a thin, withered arm stretched out. The arm was slender, and seemed to be a bit longer than ordinary people's arms. There was almost no extra flesh on it, just skin and bones. .

That arm hung a lighted lantern above the temple gate, and the dim yellow candlelight in the lantern reflected the front of the small temple in a bleak way.

As soon as the lantern was hung, the thin arm was drawn back again, and the temple door closed again with a bang.

The three people standing in front of the temple finally moved. They bowed towards the temple gate and shouted loudly: "The goddess is mighty and shining, please ask the mother-in-law to enter the mountain..."

The three people shouted with full of air, and the shouts shook the four directions.It seems that they are shouting at the people in the temple, wanting to enter the mountain.But there was no response from the door.

After a few minutes, the three shouted again.There was still no movement inside.

They yelled tirelessly for the third time, and finally the temple door opened half again with a bang.

An old woman with disheveled silver hair and a stooped figure, leaning on a cane, walked out slowly from inside.

Judging from the thin figure of the old woman, the one who hung the lantern just now should be her, whom those two people called Granny Tu.

Granny Tu came out of the temple, pointed the road ahead with her crutches, swayed three times, and staggered towards the three people who were about to enter the mountain.

I looked at Granny Tu's walking posture, as if there was something wrong with her eyes.When she got close to those three people, she turned around, and sure enough, I saw a white light flash in her eye sockets, but she couldn't see any black eyeballs, so she must be blind.

Granny Tu walked around the three people twice, but didn't see any special movements, so she waved the crutch in her hand.

As if the three people were granted amnesty, they hurriedly bowed to the mother-in-law, crossed the temple of the mother-in-law, and walked towards the back of the temple.

Granny Tu herself leaned on a cane and returned to her own temple.The temple door slammed shut again.

The surroundings fell into silence again, only the lanterns hanging above the temple gate shone brightly.

Fortunately, it is relatively empty here, and the moonlight from the sky pours down without any cover, illuminating the front of the temple quite brightly.

We squatted in the grass, and Lao Xiao lowered his voice and said: "See? If you want to enter the mountain, go to the Goddess Village, this is the only way. So this mother-in-law temple is responsible for verifying your integrity. People who are not from the Goddess Village or who are hired by the Goddess Village will be found immediately once they pass the Mother-in-law Temple, not to mention humans, even animals, it is very difficult to get past."

Coincidentally, before Lao Xiao finished speaking, a gray hare rushed out from the grass next to us.The rabbit was fat and strong, and moved very quickly. After sprinting out of the grass, it ran towards the mountain behind the mother-in-law's temple.

All three of us were fascinated by this sudden event, and stared closely at the figure of the hare.

The hare crossed the mother-in-law temple and was just about to run into the deep mountain, when its body trembled suddenly and fell to the ground suddenly, its limbs twitched, and it didn't move for a while.

We all looked at each other in blank dismay, shocked.

It seems that the blind mother-in-law looks very weak, but there are indeed some means to be able to guard her in the mother-in-law temple.It's not unreasonable to see that the three strong men are respectful and fearful towards Granny Tu.

Old Xiao said in a low voice: "Let's go to the Goddess Village. If we don't have an identity, we may not be able to hide it. We also have to hurry up and go into the mountain and try to catch the three people who advanced into the mountain. Then we will replace them and replace them in the Goddess Village. It’s good to act.”

We all think that Lao Xiao's strategy is reliable, but how to get past Granny Tu has become the biggest problem.

The third uncle asked Lao Xiao: "Didn't you say that there is a way to get in?"

Old Xiao nodded, took off his backpack, found three sets of clothes from inside, and urged: "We each wear one set of these clothes. If everything goes well, we should be able to hide it from Granny Tu's eyes. "

I wryly smiled and said, "Nonsense, didn't you see that? That old lady is blind, she definitely doesn't rely on her eyes to judge, it's useless to hide it from her eyes."

Old Xiao waved his hand: "That's what I said. I mean, wearing this dress, you should be able to hide the truth from Granny Tu. She is blind, which is even better. At least she can't see that we are counterfeit."

Wearing this clothes, can you sneak into the Goddess Village?
My third uncle and I involuntarily picked up the clothes that Lao Xiao had given us and looked at them carefully.

I held the dress in my hand, and the first feeling was that it was very light.

I didn't use much force, and the clothes were blown by the wind, and they were blown up.

Lao Xiao quickly reminded us: "Hold on to the clothes tightly, don't blow them away. I managed to save these three sets of clothes."

I grabbed the clothes tightly and observed carefully, the clothes were whitish in color and the material was very thin.It's an exaggeration to say it's as thin as a cicada's wings, but the material should be very special, thinner than any clothes I've ever worn.It is said that it is clothes, but in fact it has been simply cut, with sleeves and open plackets, and the trousers are only sewn with two trouser legs, and the handwork is extremely rough.

When I touched the material, it felt a little familiar to my hand.I recalled it for a while, and asked Old Xiao: "Uncle Xiao, are these clothes... made of those things in the cave?"

I remembered that when I fell into the cellar of the freight yard, I landed on a pile of soft things, so I didn't get hurt.The feel of those things is not too different from this clothes.That's why I asked this question.
