MTL - The Haunted-Chapter 99 Temple of 傩
The next day, the late morning and Song Jin both got up at seven o'clock. In order to save time, the two decided to split the two ways, Song Jin from the west to the east to inquire about the news, late from the east to the west to search for clues.
I didn’t call home at home one day yesterday. I was still worried about my grandfather. I walked around and watched the scenery around me. I also took a mobile phone and wanted to find a good place to call my grandfather.
This road is relatively secluded, there is no one, there are many small roads that can only be passed by one person, white wall green, blue stone road, although there are differences in architectural style, but it is really very Huizhou village feeling.
However, there was no signal along the way. I was tired and put the phone into my jacket pocket. I looked up and saw a very blue and gray building on the right side of the road ahead. There are three words on the doorway: "The Temple of the Temple" .
I thought about it late last night. There is a flea tradition in Hejiacun, and it is natural to have a temple. Two black solid wood doors outside the temple were hidden, and I thought about it and pushed the door in.
The temple is not large, there are no windows on three sides, only the light that penetrates through the doorway, it is particularly dark. The center of the temple is enshrined with a statue of 傩 , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , In general, the statues in the temples are burly, but on the contrary they are thin and short. The red robes are equipped with black masks. They look at the people who come in and smile. They don’t look like gods. They are like evil spirits.
After a short jump, it took a few seconds to react, and quickly stood in the same place and worshipped the gods on the case. He moved on the line and saw a blue-colored account hanging above the statue, embroidered with four golden characters "Sister of God". It’s only after the delay, this statue is a boylike figure, which is made according to the shape of the boy, so it looks so small.
He stepped back and looked at the left eye, but he was surprised. I saw dozens of faces all looking at him, his mouth hooked, and smiled at him with a smile. Those faces vary in color and color, and there are blue, red, and yellow faces, but also pale or near normal skin. Some have eyelids, while others have only white eyes. If you look closely, you can find expressions on those faces. There are also subtle differences, but without exception, the corners of the mouth are smiling.
Late last night, I was scared by Ying Ying, the little girl in the guest house. At this time, I was able to react quickly. These are all face-to-face, hanging the entire wall. But even if you know that these are fake masks, it is still creepy to see so many faces in the dark temple. Late, I can feel the goose bumps on my arms have already emerged.
He glanced at the wall, which was empty, decorated with colored enamels. The colors of the cockroaches were very new, and it was obvious that they were replaced soon.
It will be fleas in the New Year, and it should be changed at that time.
I didn’t stay too late, once again worshipped the 傩 傩 并 and bowed to the left and right, and then hurriedly turned around. Before I stepped out of the temple, I always felt like a man on the back, like the dozens on the right side of the back. Both eyes are staring at him.
After walking out of the temple, I was late and unwilling to take out the mobile phone. I just found out that there was a signal. He was happy and gave it to the family. This time, the grandfather should have been back in the morning.
The old man was slow, and the phone rang five times before being picked up. After a long time, I asked the grandfather if everything was fine. Tell the old man that he probably went back late, don't wait for him, just sleep at night. He just said two words, the phone will not hang up automatically.
Lately, he reluctantly received the mobile phone and turned around to plan to move on. He saw that he was standing next to him.
It was an old lady who was not taller than her chest, full of white hair, wearing a set of old-fashioned black embroidered satin clothes, carrying a black cane, and looking up at him.
The so-called old man and old man, because of the grandfather's grandmother, late to meet other elderly people will also take special care of some, now quickly bent down the waist: "Apo, did not hit you?" Do not care about the old lady station He almost scared him behind him.
The old lady smiled and smiled and shook her head: "A teenager is calling home?"
When the old man spoke with a strong Yinan accent, he thought for a while before he reacted to what the old lady asked. He smiled and said: "Yes, call my grandfather, he is alone at home, I am not too rest assured."
The old lady nodded after listening, and waved her hand down, indicating that she would bow her head and approach her.
I didn’t understand what it was, but I did it. Close to the distance, you can feel the old man's body has a long and decaying atmosphere.
The voice of the old lady is very low. Very light, whispered in his ear: "If a young man listens to his mother-in-law, take a hurry and leave, don't let the grandfather wait for you. The mother-in-law is old and dead, and the mother-in-law will not hurt."
Her voice is heavy and her voice is light and fuzzy. I can't hear what she is saying, or I am not sure if I hear it accurately. He only felt that the back was cold, and when he looked up, the old lady had already walked away with a cane and quickly disappeared into the corner.
After a long delay, he shook his head and said that he must have listened to himself. If you are so close, if you say that for a long time, if the old man is not a person, you will definitely be able to tell. What the old man said may be to let him listen to the advice, and to accompany the elderly at home. Don't wait until the person is gone, then regret it.
He didn't have much to gain from a round of laps. The phone still had no signal. He had some understanding of why the boss was still playing the old-fashioned game console. I can't contact Song Jin and see that it is almost 11 o'clock noon, I decided to go back to the guest house and wait for him.
When he went back through the village entrance, he saw that Song Jin and the boss of the canteen yesterday were smoking together, and by the way. After a late walk, Song Jin shook his head gently, meaning that he did not ask anything.
Later, he followed a few words and asked: "Boss, I see there is a temple in the other side, very interesting. How do you jump here?"
The boss of the commissary opened the door to do business. It was obviously very talkative. He heard the words and talked incessantly: "I know that there is no such custom in R City. You are interested in this village. The flea is mainly to exorcise the ghost. From the beginning of the first month, the morning and the night have been jumping. The fleas wear the noodles to symbolize the ghosts and gods. Before and after the ceremony, they go to the temple to worship the gods. Finally, there is a search ceremony, and the fleas Turning the lights from house to house to 'search', expel evil spirits and plagues."
Song Jin thought of the experience of himself and Tao Juanjuan once smashing evil. He couldn’t help but be curious: "Can this really drive out ghosts?"
The boss of the commissary was silent, and took a deep breath of smoke on his hand. He slowly spit it out. He pressed his buttocks under his feet and raised his head to look around. He finally looked at Song Jin and lowered his voice: "Really This year, when the New Year is over, I really found out the evil spirits."
Song Jin heard a shock, seeing the boss looks a bit chilly, only feels a cool feeling on the back. He also cautiously whispered: "What about the evil spirits that are found out? Can you drive away? Where are you going?"
"There is a face. Putting the evil spirits into the face, the evil spirits are sealed and they can't come out."
Song Jinyan’s eyes widened and he couldn’t help but look at the lateness: “Is there still such a way?”
He shook his head late and said that he was not clear.
The boss of the commissary also thought that Song Jin was asking himself, and smiled earnestly: "In fact, I am not in Hejia Village. I used to be in Shifang Village. I married my wife and children and settled in Hejia Village with her. I’m getting to know it slowly. I’ve seen it a few times and I don’t understand it very well.”
Song Jin knew that he couldn't ask anything. After buying a box of cigarettes, he said goodbye to the boss and went back to the guest house to eat at the same time.
The villagers didn't pay much attention to it. In the restaurant of the guest house, Chi Yu and Song Jin had dinner at the table, and the owner of the restaurant was eating at another table. Chi Yu and Song Jin saw the wife of the owner for the first time. It was a middle-aged woman who looked a little pale and thin. The brows had been slightly raised, as if there was any unthinkable.
Xiaoying, a little girl, simply ate some food and played it alone. After the woman finished eating, she pulled up some reluctant daughters to leave. The little girl whispered and finally followed her mother. She went back before she left. Come, waved a smile at Chi Xiao.
The owner of the shop cleaned up the table, and Song Jin took the opportunity to talk to the other party: "Children and her mother don't look too good?"
"Yeah." The owner raised his head and looked at them. He smiled bitterly. "Looking at the doctor Wang in the village, I saw that there is nothing wrong with my body. It is a heart disease."
He wiped the table and said: "I don't know what happened. From the time of the New Year, my wife is old, and she always thinks that we should have a pair of children besides Yingying. How can I be a mother? I can't remember my own children. I just want to ask the neighbors to help the store and Yingying when they are not busy these days. I will take her mother to the hospital to have a good look."
"If you can't do it, go directly to the city and see if the mental illness is not good." Song Jin answered.
"I also think, it can be too far, and the road is not easy to go. It has been many years, and the road to and from the village is still not well repaired." The owner whispered, not talking.
"I don't think there are many people living in the store these few days. We will leave in the afternoon." Song Jinxi asked, "Boss, how many lives have you lived in the past few days? Are there other people besides us?"
There is only one guest house in the village. If Zhu Hui’s family or the two police officers have been to Hejia Village, they must live here.
The owner of the store was silent for a moment, and decided to look at the two people, not knowing what to think, or just recalling the guests who had been in the store these days. After a long while, he took away the plates at the table of the two men and shook his head: "No, no one has lived. No one has been here since the New Year."
This news is the same as what Song Jin had heard elsewhere. Song Jin was disappointed and called for a late two.
After a long time, he was still distracted, and the thoughts were not the same. Until Song Jin took a shot of his shoulder, he reacted and turned to look at his friends. He said: "Da Song, we have to hurry, this village can't wait."
Song Jin is not clear, so he wondered: "What happened? What did you find out of what you just thought?"
He was determined to look at him, his throat moved, and he lowered his voice. "There are ghosts in this village. The key is that I can't tell which ghost is here."
