Chapter 18 Chapter Eighteen

The land temple was dark and muddy. I turned on the camera mode of my mobile phone and kept the flash on. As soon as I took a photo, I saw the father of the land moving.At first, I thought I saw a vision, but just as I screamed and bang, the statue of the land father fell down.I plucked up my courage, went in and had a look, and said to myself that this was the case.For some reason, the statue was pushed down and pressed against a rusty wire. After maintaining this state for a long time, the wire broke.The iron wire was placed in front of the statue, and it was used to affix charms and the like. When the wind blows, it flutters like a colorful flag.

Today, the earth temple is in a mess, as if there was a fight.The ground was littered with cyan orange peels, liver-colored blood clothes, and fallen statues. There was no longer any place to stand in the temple.I checked around cautiously, but I didn't find Zhao Xiyue, but I found three 100-yuan RMB bills that were pulled tightly.This is not on the street, even if it is on the street, there will not be three hundred yuan for you to pick up so quickly.I thought to myself, this must be the money I gave to Zhao Xixi. After I left, did someone find her? I yelled several times in a low voice, but no one answered. The surroundings of the Earth Temple were completely invisible, and the light range of the mobile phone was limited, so it was difficult to find someone in such an environment.My heart beat fast and I searched nearby, but I couldn't find anyone, and I walked back to the village resentfully after nearly half an hour.During this process, Ouyang Xin called me several times and told me that Aunt Liu was urging people again. He volunteered to go to the wake for me first, and told me to go back to him after finishing my work.

However, when I walked back, I didn't go to Grandpa Wu's wake immediately, but went back to the dormitory first.At this time, Liu Qin was still asleep, as if she couldn't fall asleep if she didn't see me.I felt guilty for waking Liu Qin up and frightening her, so I took the initiative to tell her the whole story as soon as I entered the door.Just as I thought, Liu Qin screamed again and again, unable to believe that there would be a very powerful character in the village. "Hearing what you say, I want to resign..." Liu Qin said in fear. "You're so pretty, it's easy to go out and find a job." I sighed.

"I want to look for it. But Principal Zhang kindly arranged for me to come here. I'm leaving now. I'm so sorry for him. Why don't we tell this matter..." "I can't explain clearly to Principal Zhang." I continued, "When you were in a coma, Principal Zhang told us not to cause trouble. He was under a lot of pressure. If he believed it, I would have said it. By the way, I'll take your money first, and if Sister Joy finds me again, I can give it to her right away." "It's not urgent." Liu Qin said to me, "It's Wu Lingchun, she came to ask me many times just now, I don't know how to explain it clearly, do you want to..."

"No! You can't tell Wu Lingchun about this!" I insisted, because Wu Lingchun has a strong personality, and if she got involved, it would probably cause even more trouble.Maybe, no one would believe her, and she would jump off a building to prove her innocence. I chatted with Liu Qin for a while, and the phone rang, and I saw that the number was from Ouyang Xin.I got through the phone, thinking that he was going to urge me to take over, but who knew he just told me to hurry up, saying that he had something to discuss.I wondered, if there is anything that cannot be discussed in school, I must go to the place where the spirit is kept.However, I was supposed to go to watch the spirit, so I asked Liu Qin to lock the door, and then I picked up the key and walked out.

The place where the vigil is held is in front of Grandpa Wu's house, which is already in ruins, only two walls and some wooden beams have not collapsed.There was a yellow light in front of the coffin, and the wires were pulled from other people's homes. When the night wind blew, the light bulb flickered, and several people's shadows were shaken.I was walking on the road and almost thought someone was following me.In the distance, I could still smell the smell of rice wine and candles, which made me shiver. Ouyang Xin was sitting on a chair beside the coffin. When he saw me coming, he came over and asked in a low voice how things were going.I let out a long sigh, told the truth, and then asked Ouyang Xin if he had seen people coming in and out of the village, because someone must have spotted Zhao Xixi and followed us to the Earth Temple.Ouyang Xin pulled me aside and told me in a low voice that someone had entered and left the village just now, and that person was none other than Xiao Weihai.

"It's him again?" I panicked. "He drove to the orchard today, and the car was left there, and he came back alone at night." Ouyang Xin said to me, "Everyone is asleep now, do you want to go to his house with me? Tomorrow is the first day." It's been seven days, and your box still hasn't been found." "Didn't you say he's going home? Let's go now, isn't the big girl sitting on the kitchen knife." I shook my head and said. "What is a big girl sitting on a kitchen knife?" Ouyang Xin asked suspiciously, and then said sternly, "We won't go in, just climb to the top of the wall to see what's going on inside. Didn't you see Lin Huhu inside last time? If this Once we see him again, then I will stay and watch people, you go to the village chief, then no one will suspect you of lying!"

"This..." I said in fear, "Xiao Weihai has already gone home, you still dare to climb the wall, not afraid of being beaten to death? If Lin Huohu is there, can you beat him?" "That's why I went to see it quietly!" Ouyang Xin urged. My heart broke, and I decided to go to Xiao's house again, maybe it was Xiao Weihai who followed us to the Earth Temple, otherwise sister Joy would not have disappeared again!I hope Zhao Xixi is not dead, because there is no corpse nearby, and in such a short time, there is no time to dig a pit to bury the corpse.With a firm mind, Ouyang Xin and I walked towards Xiao's house in the dark, regardless of the vigil, anyway, it is impossible for Aunt Liu to come to inspect us at night to see if we are still there.

I was about to reach Xiao's house, and I saw the light first, then slowed down, wondering if Xiao Weihai hadn't slept yet?Or did Tiger Lin turn on the light himself?Ouyang Xin thinks this is a good sign, because if there are lights, we can climb on the wall and see the people in the house.I looked at Ouyang Xin suspiciously, recalling what Liu Qin had said, and was about to ask him who was hiding in the house, but he suddenly stopped in his tracks. At this time, we have already reached the back door of Xiao's house, where the wall is relatively low and easy to climb up.But the back door opened quietly with a babble.If Ouyang Xin hadn't covered my mouth and dragged me to the nearby bushes, I would have been discovered.In the darkness, we saw someone come out with a white flashlight, and then another person came out.I squinted my eyes and couldn't help muttering, why did she come here?

At night, Xiao Weihai sent Lin Shuxiang out, and he closed the back door after she walked away with a flashlight.Lin Shuxiang is Boss Mo's wife, and she actually ran to Xiao Weihai's house in the middle of the night, so there must be something shady about her.I recalled what Zhao Xixi said, there is a powerful character hidden deep in the village, even Lin Shuxiang can't figure it out, could it be Xiao Weihai?But I think Xiao Weihai can fight at most, if he needs to use his brain, can he do it? After waiting for a while, Ouyang Xin said, "Let's go there!" "Don't worry, what if Lin Shuxiang comes back?" I pulled Ouyang Xin back, thinking at the same time, why the two of us got back together again.

"She has already left, and she will definitely not come back." Ouyang Xin patted me on the shoulder and said, "I squatted under the wall all of a sudden, you stepped on my back, climbed on the top of the wall to see what is in the house Condition." I showed embarrassment, but Ouyang Xin didn't give me a chance to refuse, and dragged me to the wall of the back door of Xiao's house.I was afraid of trampling on Ouyang Xin, so I refused to do that. God knows if my weight will trample him to death.After arguing for a while, Ouyang Xin hugged me and got very close to me. His seductive smell got into my nose, and my body became limp.Before I had time to react, Ouyang Xin lifted me up, just enough to make my head higher than the back wall of Xiao's house. With a whoosh, I rushed up and grabbed the top of the wall.At this time, the living room and bedroom of Xiao Weihai's house were all lit, but Lin Huhu could not be seen, and he probably had already fled.Xiao Weihai sent him away, and he sat alone in the living room with a box on the table, and that box was an aluminum box.Sure enough, as Wang Xiaolong said, the box was stolen by Xiao Weihai, but how could he have my key, the lock of the dormitory showed no sign of being tampered with.Xiao Weihai was still surrounded by villagers that night, did he really take advantage of the gap to steal the box I found? I climbed on the top of the wall, looking at everything in the house, confused.When I came back from the old racecourse that night, I met no one else on the road, except for Ouyang Xin. Only the owner of the box might know that it was in my hands.Since the owner of the box sent me a message, telling me to return the box in seven days, it means that the owner of the box is not Xiao Weihai, otherwise he got the box, so there is no need to threaten me again. The question is, how did Xiao Weihai learn that I had the box and steal it so quickly? I couldn't figure it out to death, I wished I could climb over the wall and run into the room to question Xiao Weihai.After touching for about a minute, Xiao Weihai stood up from the chair in the living room, put the box in a cabinet and locked it, then turned off the light.Immediately afterwards, Xiao Weihai went into the bedroom again and turned off the lights inside.At first, I thought there was nothing to see, and I was about to ask Ouyang Xin to let me down, when I saw the lights turn on again. Xiao Weihai yelled in the room: "Fuck you, whoever is peeking behind you is looking for death!" Suddenly, Xiao Weihai grabbed a knife from the room and rushed towards the back door.I fell down in fright and hurriedly told Ouyang Xin to run, we were discovered.Ouyang Xin didn't say anything, just carried me on his back and ran to the bushes where he escaped just now.I shouted in my heart, you really are a big girl sitting on a kitchen knife, what's the use of running here, a tree can't be a shield, keep running a little further.Soon, Xiao Weihai pushed open the back door, and chased into the night with a knife. The strange thing is that Xiao Weihai didn't chase us.After I was put down by Ouyang Xin, I vaguely saw a person jumping off the other wall, and fled hurriedly into the darkness in the opposite direction, and then disappeared.
