Chapter 8 Chapter Eight: Cup Bow and Snake Shadow

Bai Xiaoyang stood up, put his eyes on the crack of the door and peeked out.I saw someone sneaking towards the mountain gate holding a burning torch.Followed by a large group of torches, the group all looked hesitant and afraid. Suddenly, two familiar faces appeared from behind the leaders, Minister Huang and Yuan Ziqing! Bai Xiaoyang whispered, "How could it be Minister Huang and Yuan Ziqing just now?" Zhaofeng let out a cry, and having recovered a little internal strength, he quickly struggled to stand up from the ground, pulled Bai Xiaoyang away, and leaned against the crack of the door to look out the door.

When he saw that it was Minister Huang and Yuan Ziqing, Zhaofeng murmured: "This time, Zhaoxia Temple is completely over! These people really don't cry when they see the coffin!" Following the appearance of Minister Huang and Yuan Ziqing, people holding torches gathered in front of the mountain gate of Chaoxia Temple one after another.On the empty dam in front of the mountain gate, the flames flickered and there were figures of people. Minister Huang brought so many people here, and he seemed very confident.But he still looked at the roof of Chaoxia Temple in a very unsteady manner, and then looked at all the dark corners, and then suddenly waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Surround this temple for me! If there is any movement, set it on fire for me! The bane left by feudal superstition may cause trouble at any time! I will come today to kill the root and eliminate the trouble forever!"

Upon hearing Minister Huang's words, Zhaofeng turned around, leaning his back against the mountain gate, and said angrily and helplessly, "It's over! It's over!" When Zhaofeng leaned against the mountain gate with his back, the mountain gate moved a little and there was a bang.Minister Huang and Yuan Ziqing, who had long been in the shadows outside, were taken aback.Yuan Ziqing shouted in fear: "No, there are still big things in the temple!" Yuan Ziqing's earth-shattering roar was like a bomb exploding among the group of people, and all the people immediately turned around and ran away.A few of them were particularly timid and even threw their torches on the ground.

Minister Huang followed suit, but was left behind.He ran a few steps and shouted loudly: "You run with a hammer! Stop for me!" When he shouted to stop, he still didn't stop first. In an instant, the front of the mountain gate was empty again.However, those people ran scattered into the woods on both sides. Frightened and nervous peeps permeate outside the mountain gate of Zhaoxia Temple! Bai Xiaoyang whispered to Zhaofeng: "What should we do?" Zhaofeng said dejectedly: "It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, let him go!" After speaking, he pulled Bai Xiaoyang and walked towards the Daxiong Palace.

Minister Huang and Yuan Ziqing peeped in the woods for a long time, seeing that there was no movement at the mountain gate that was deep in the darkness, they looked at each other, and tiptoed out of the woods again. The flickering torches gathered tremblingly towards the mountain gate again. Minister Huang looked around, cleared his voice on purpose to embolden himself, and then said loudly to Yuan Ziqing who was standing beside him, "Yuan Ziqing, you're so crazy that I'm so nervous, I don't know what to do when I look back." Pack you!" Yuan Ziqing immediately said: "No, no! It might be the wind that moved the mountain gate just now! It was the wind that moved the mountain gate!"

Minister Huang said: "I don't care if it's a wind or a ghost. Once it's set on fire, it's nothing. Pour kerosene on me. Just start the fire from the gate! Burn!" Behind Minister Huang, a militiaman with an earthen pot stood up, and another militiaman with a handful of firewood also stood up and put the firewood on the ground.Militiamen carrying earthen jars poured the kerosene inside onto the firewood. After pouring kerosene, Minister Huang ordered the militiamen to carry the firewood soaked in kerosene to the mountain gate and put it away.The two militiamen hesitated timidly.

Seeing that the two militiamen hadn't moved, Director Huang impatiently reached out and grabbed the gun on one of the militiamen's backs, shook it, and said, "What do I ask you to carry this guy on your back for? Fire sticks?" The two militiamen looked at each other in dismay. One militiaman took off the gun on his back and pulled the bolt, and the other militiaman carried firewood and walked towards the mountain gate. As soon as they reached the first step, the militiaman holding the firewood threw the firewood in his hand towards the mountain gate, and then retreated with a huff.

Minister Huang was very dissatisfied with the performance of the two militiamen, and cursed: "Useless things!" He took the torch from one of the militiamen and walked towards the mountain gate in person. And on the roof of the mountain gate, four white monkeys mysteriously appeared in the darkness again quietly...
