Mysterious world, I can change my destiny

Chapter 33 Glazed Archway, Yinshi Wanton

On Chenghuangmiao Street, the fog gradually thickened.

Nearby houses, the lights in the distance are becoming more and more blurred.

It seems that there is a thick layer of gauze in front of the eyes, twisting and growing into a strange shape.

On the bluestone road, there were two figures, one long and one short.

Walking quietly like a wandering spirit.

It seems that the atmosphere is too silent, so that it is a bit depressing.

Luo and Zhen rolled their throats twice, and whispered:
"Brother Ji, can you speak up?
Don't you think it's strange?It's just arrived at Haishi, why is it like a curfew?Every household in the outer city rests so early? "

Ji Yuan didn't answer, just let out a "squeak" and fell silent again.

Woohoo!Whoooo!

The cold wind was shrill, like weeping and complaining.

Luo and Zhen shrank their necks. He also has internal martial arts training, so he shouldn't be so timid.

But as the fog deepened and the chill grew stronger, the externally trained physique, which had been well-trained, also felt a little bit cold.

Like wearing single clothes, walking in the snow.

Even my mind is affected, and I am constantly being manipulated by thoughts such as shock, fear, dread, and worry.

"Brother Ji, you should say something!"

Finally, Luo Yuzhen couldn't hold back the anger in her heart, and suddenly roared.

The high-pitched voice echoed in the empty long street, and it was so abrupt that he even startled himself.

"You'd better be quiet, Brother Luo.

If there is too much movement, it is likely to attract... bad things. "

Ji Yuan stopped in his tracks, with a stern look on his brows.

Pressing the waist knife with his right hand, there was a sharp killing spirit.

"What are you talking about? Could it be that you really believed the nonsense of the shopkeeper of Huaiyinzhai, thinking that there are evil spirits wandering around Tianjing City after nightfall?"

Luo Yuzhen snorted heavily, and fell into inexplicable irritability without knowing it.

Ji Yuan didn't care, and sighed softly:

"Brother Luo, haven't you noticed the weirdness yet?

We have been walking for a quarter of an hour, but we still haven't left the Town God's Temple Street.

Look at the Yongan Pawnshop on the left, come in from the street, this is the No.12 shop,
And Huaiyinzhai is the No.19 family. It stands to reason that it has passed away long ago. How could it still appear? "

Luo Yuzhen was slightly taken aback, and turned to look at the plaque of "Yong'an Pawnshop".

The four big characters on it are so bright red that it looks like dripping blood.

It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured from the beginning to the end, and the coolness permeated the whole body.

It made him wake up instantly, and his voice trembled slightly:

"Is this a ghost hitting a wall? Hitting a ghost!

We were trapped in this Town God's Temple Street, we went round and round and never got out! "

Luo Yuzhen's handsome face was full of shock, and she turned pale with fright.

Looking around, there seemed to be ghosts of different lengths floating in the dead long street, shooting indifferent eyes full of malice.

The haze-like thick fog around him seemed to be transformed into a cannibal who devoured flesh and blood!

"I haven't figured out the reason yet, but I noticed something was wrong after walking a hundred steps or so out of Huai Yin Zhai."

Ji Yuan's expression was calm, a little too calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

He kept counting his heartbeats, and every 360 times, about 4 minutes, he and Luo Yuzhen would turn back inexplicably.

"Brother Ji, are you not afraid at all?"

Seeing Ji Yuan's calm and composed face, the panic in Luo Yuzhen's heart immediately disappeared.

"There is an old saying that ghosts are afraid of evil people, why are you afraid of these ghosts and monsters?

Once the courage is withdrawn, the blood will be weak.

Those invisible, intangible, evil and weird things swarmed in unexplainably. "

Ji Yuan's eyes flickered, and he noticed that the fog was getting bigger and bigger.

If it really comes to the midnight curfew, I'm afraid I will encounter the terrifying scene of a hundred ghosts walking at night.

"I understand the truth, but...it's too cold, the fog is wet and cold, sticking to my body like ice!"

Luo and Zhen released clouds of white air between their breaths, as if they had fallen into an ice hole.

"Brother Ji, let's go back the same way and go to Huaiyin Zhai to hide!"

With the blessings of [Dragon Essence and Tiger Ferocity] and [Reinforced Iron Bone], Ji Yuan's externally refined Dzogchen's qi and blood are strong and can withstand it.

He shook his head and said:

"I heard from the older generation that don't go back late at night, you will easily be haunted by evil spirits.

The shopkeeper told me that it is safe to enter the Temple of the City God... Let's go to the Temple of the City God! "

The two had already circled the long street several times, and it seemed that a strange force blocked their way, pulling them away from them.

Ji Yuan's footsteps are like the wind, Luo and Zhen dare not lag behind.

The two turned into the alley together and ran in the direction of the Town God's Temple.

Suddenly!
The mist rolled wildly, rushing in like waves.

Tatata!
Like countless gray and white shadows stepping on the bluestone slab, they started to rush and chased after the two people.

The clammy and viscous cold air was pervasive, as if slippery tentacles stretched out quickly.

"How evil!"

Ji Yuan didn't look back, but felt the chill behind his back getting heavier and heavier, as if he would be caught by the gray shadow hidden in the mist at any moment.

Unconsciously, he mobilized his internal energy to move his limbs and bones between breaths.

The masculine blood erupted like a burning torch.

Chi Chi Chi!
The greasy tentacles seemed to be pressing on a red-hot iron plate, and there was an illusory sound of burning and roasting.

"Huh! Brother Ji, we're at the Town God's Temple!"

After a while, Luo and Zhen let out a foul breath and stopped abruptly.

The moment I stepped into the open space of Chenghuang Temple, the fog cleared and the chill disappeared.

"They can't get close to... this glazed archway?"

Ji Yuan stood below and looked up.

There are couplets on the columns.

On the left is "Weiling is prominent in protecting the country and supporting the community";
On the right is "The holy way is brilliant, giving nectar to save the people".

There are four big characters in the letter "Pastoralizing the Limin".

Like a dragon and a phoenix flying, the pen is powerful.

It has a majestic atmosphere!
"It's so dangerous, so dangerous! I was almost frozen to death on that street... my blood was frozen!"

Luo and Zhen felt lingering fears.

"The shopkeeper didn't talk nonsense. It's safe to enter the Temple of the City God."

Ji Yuan frowned slightly and remained silent, and the map of Huangtian Dao actually reflected the glazed archway.

I saw Huaguang trembling, manifesting the handwriting——

[Utensils]: [City God Archway]

【Status】:【Suppress evil】【Block evil】【Exorcise evil spirits】【Remove evil spirits】

"Let's go to the Town God's Temple and leave Liulichang directly. Let's go back to our houses before the curfew."

Ji Yuan didn't think about hiding for a night, not to mention whether more evil spirits would appear after midnight.

Just violating the curfew is a serious crime. As long as you are caught, you will be imprisoned and imprisoned, and you will be executed on the spot if you are serious.

Although it is said that the outer city is more relaxed, but I am afraid that I will not be able to bear it if I put the city god's temple and sleep for one night.

"Thanks to Ji Xiong, I was able to survive this time. If it is useful in the future, feel free to do it!"

Luo and Zhen clasped their fists in thanks, and then changed the subject:
"The matter of stepping on Yang Xiu in the martial arts competition, Brother Ji, you should think about it again, I can add some money, 5000 taels, it really can't be more, the landlord's family has no food left..."

Ji Yuan didn't bother to answer, just pretended he didn't hear.

The two left Liulichang without hindrance, and never encountered any strange things along the way.

After parting ways with Luo and Zhen, Ji Yuan went to Tai'an Square alone.

Red lanterns are hung high, and pedestrians and hawkers walk around.

Compared with the dense fog and surging chill just now, this is like the world of the sun.

"Guest officer, let's eat a bowl of wontons! It's delicious and delicious!"

Suddenly, an old man with gray hair and coarse linen robe shouted courteously.

Ji Yuan was on his way, but he stopped for some reason, and turned his head to take a look.

It is a temporary stall with a charcoal stove, iron pot, and a few tables and chairs.

"Is there any vegetarian food?"

Ji Yuan's eyelids twitched, and he came to the empty seat at the stall.

As soon as I sat down, wisps of hot air and fragrance went straight into my nose.

"Guest officer can joke, aren't wontons all filled with meat.

I'll give you a bowl to make sure you'll be full and comfortable! "

The old man had a strong local accent, and his rough face showed the weather of time.

"Then have a bowl, and order a little more. If there is not enough weight, I will ruin your business."

Ji Yuan's eyelids drooped, and his tone was ferocious.

"Okay, okay."

The old man lifted the lid of the pot, and the boiling water was bubbling to release the heat.

I saw that he skillfully put in a dozen wontons, and it didn't take long to catch them.

Pour bright soup into it, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and quickly serve it in front of Ji Yuan.

"Guest officer, your wonton!"

Ji Yuan picked up the chopsticks, broke the dough, poked the meat inside, and said in a cold voice:
"Your meat...is not fresh!"

The old man bent over, smiled and said:

"Guest officer, don't entertain people, this is the best lean meat! Chop it finely! It tastes so good!"

Ji Yuan picked up one, loosened his chopsticks, and the wontons emitting a tempting aroma fell to the ground.

He raised his leg and stepped on the ground, crushed it vigorously, and said:
"It's not even cooked, how can I eat it?"

The old man raised his lowered head, his pale face showed a dead look, he opened his mouth and said:
"Guest officer, why are you wasting this good wonton...one person can't cook much, it's all carefully selected good meat!"

At the same time, the noisy street was instantly quiet.

Those peddlers and pedestrians returning home all looked at Ji Yuan.

The latter glanced blankly, and the bright soup in the bowl turned dark red, as thick as blood.

The wonton whose skin was torn apart, the meat stuffing inside was like a section of finger.

"I ran into ghosts at night!"
