The years of reselling the haunted house

"I'm next door to you." The voice was lazy, and indeed it came from the direction next to me.

"Next door? Are you imprisoned here too?"

"Nonsense. I came here much earlier than you, and I count as your senior." The voice said disdainfully.

"You're much older than me? What are you doing here?"

I didn't expect that there was still a person locked up here, so I couldn't help asking curiously.

"It's none of your business. You just need to calm down a little bit, and it will delay my sleep." The man yawned and said angrily.

"Come on, why don't you sleep, how about we chat?" I approached the wall and said to the other side.

I thought, since this person has been imprisoned here for a long time, he should be able to know some of the situation in Qingyun Palace. I am not prepared to meet the palace master at all, so I can ask him something, which is also a preparation.

"What is there to talk about? You also came here to pay homage to Qingyun Palace, right? You can find here, which means you still have two brushes, but it's a pity..."

As the man spoke, he sighed lightly.

I touched the wall. It should be very thick and strong, but the sound insulation effect is not good, and we can hear the words on both sides clearly.The other party should also be leaning against the wall, and the two of us talked to each other without any effort.

"Why do you say it's a pity?" It seems that this person also regards me as someone who wants to worship Qingyun Palace. I didn't deny this, but asked along with his words.

"Because you voted for the wrong door, this Qingyun Palace is a place where snakes and rats nest, and the master of Qingyun Palace is a treacherous, sanctimonious rat. You are blind enough to vote for Qingyun Palace."

Unexpectedly, when Qingyun Palace was mentioned, this person uttered nonsense and scolded everyone in Qingyun Palace.Even the well-known Master of Qingyun Palace became a rat in his mouth.

Good guy, what kind of enmity is this with Qingyun Palace?

"Senior, I didn't come to Qingyun Palace." I leaned against the wall and said.

"Didn't you go to Qingyun Palace? Then what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to look for Qinghu Grass. A friend of mine has been poisoned." I told the truth, there was nothing to hide.

"Green Lake Grass? Water slugs among your friends?" the man asked.

"Do you know water slugs?" This surprised me a bit, it seems that this person is not an ordinary person.Thinking about it, how could anyone who dares to scold Qingyun Palace be an ordinary person.

"Nonsense. Of course I know. What kind of poison is there that I don't know about? Back then...damn it, I don't mind mentioning it." The man cursed and became more and more angry, and finally interrupted the topic.

"Boy, since you came to look for Qinghu Grass, why were you brought here?" The man obviously became interested when he heard that I didn't come to Qingyun Palace.

Although I haven't seen this person's face yet, I don't know who he is, and he often swears, but my first feeling is that he is not annoying.Generally speaking, such people are straight-forward, much better than those who often talk about honey and swords.

And I've been locked up, and it's no secret what I've done.So I didn't hide anything, so I told that person about Qingyun Order.

"You got the Qingyun Order? Or the one from the first guardian?" Hearing that, the man became even more excited.

"Yes, I heard that from the man in the green shirt."

"He is the White Lion Guardian of Qingyun Palace. Except for the hall master and the first guardian, they are all named after the guardian beast. Kid, would you like to do me a favor?"

I was taken aback: "Help you? What can I do for you?"

"You don't care about anything first, are you willing to help? It's for your benefit to help me."

After hearing this, I couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said: "Senior, you have been locked up here just like me, and you also said that you have my benefits, what benefits can you have. Besides, I don't even know who you are, even what you look like I didn’t see it, so why help you?”

"Tch..." the man said disdainfully, "Can this shitty place trap me? If I want to go out, I'll go out in minutes. It's just that I think this place is pretty good and I don't want to go out. If you want to see me, it's easy .You should be able to touch a bump by touching along the wall. Pull that thing out and try.”

"Oh?" When I heard it, I hurriedly followed what he said, and started to feel along the wall.

After touching it around, I really felt a bump.It seemed to be a piece of wood stuffed into the wall.

I grabbed the bulge with all my strength and pulled it out with great effort.I gritted my teeth and mobilized my internal strength, and this time I successfully pulled out the piece of wood bit by bit.When the wood was pulled out, a hole the size of a ping-pong ball appeared on the wall.At the same time, a beam of light shone from the opposite side.

I was very surprised, so I put my head close to the hole and looked towards the next door along the hole.

As a result, as soon as my eyes met, I found that there was also an eye on the opposite side of the hole.

"Ah..." I was startled and quickly withdrew.

Apparently the man was looking at me through the hole too, and the light was blocked.

Soon, the light reappeared, and the person should have left the wall.Then I leaned up again and looked through the hole.

In that room, a few candles were lit, so it was much brighter than mine.

In the middle of the ground stood a man in ragged clothes, with long hair and beard, so full of hair that I couldn't even see his face clearly.The clothes on his body were also very worn out and full of stains.What is even more striking is that his body is covered with shackles.An arm-thick iron chain was wrapped around his body, and there were heavy handcuffs on his hands and feet.

The man took another two steps forward, and the shackles made a rattling sound.

"See, my old man's true face, does it make your eyes shine? I am the one who is handsome and unrestrained in Yushu Linfeng." The man laughed brazenly.

I nodded: "I see it, but I didn't see a jade tree facing the wind, and I didn't find a reason to help you."

"You boy, you are really a stone in the latrine. Why can't I tell you clearly. To tell you the truth, helping me is helping yourself. Didn't you say that your friend was poisoned? You can even come to Qinghucao, explaining that you The poison in the friend is about to be poisoned. Do you think you have a chance to go out after entering Qingyun Mountain?"

"What do you mean? You mean Palace Master Qingyun, won't let me go out of the mountain?"

"Bullshit. You have taken the Qingyun order of the first guardian, and you are suspected of murdering the first guardian." The man said coldly.

Chapter 1923 Cooperation

"Isn't this nonsense? How old is the head protector? How can I murder him? Senior, you can't talk nonsense just because you want me to help you."

"Who is talking nonsense. Not long after the first protector left Qingyun Mountain, there was news of his death. It is said that he was murdered. Even if it wasn't done by you, it might have been done by your ancestors. In your hand. In addition, I also told you that in order to lead out the murderer who killed the first Dharma protector, the master of Qingyun Hall once issued a reward order."

"Reward order? What reward order?" I asked.

"It is now that Qingyun Mountain has lost four Qingyun Tokens outside. Whoever finds the Qingyun Token can go up the mountain with the order, and will be rewarded by the Qingyun Palace in Qingyun Mountain. Not only will they get a huge amount of wealth, but they can also make an exception to absorb them into Qingyun The temple serves as a practice."

"Isn't this a good thing? I'll just take the Qingyun Token. Shouldn't they treat me well here?"

The man sneered: "Do you think it's that simple? To tell you the truth, the reward order was issued to find out the murderer who killed the first Dharma protector. Those who can go up the mountain with the Qingyun order must have trouble with the murderer who killed the Dharma protector." It doesn't matter. So, you kid was fooled, and you thought it was a good thing? You are more than lucky this time."

"Is that so?" I couldn't help but sound a little dazed, but I've heard that it is more effective to go up the mountain with the Qingyun Order than with the Maoxiang Pearl.Because the Qingyun Token was originally owned by the guardians here, so whoever holds the Qingyun Token represents the identity of the Dharma Protector.According to this person, isn't this a conspiracy?I hold the Qingyun order of the first Dharma protector, does it mean that I or someone related to me killed the first Dharma protector?Isn't it too hasty to find the murderer?

Seeing my half-believing attitude, the weird man next door said again: "Do you think in your heart that finding the murderer in this way has no logic and is a bit sloppy? Then let me tell you, for Qingyun Palace, As long as you find the murderer who killed the first Dharma protector, you don’t need to care who the murderer is? It doesn’t matter if it’s the real murderer or not. Ten years, hundreds of years, you will definitely be punished. Therefore, as long as you go up the mountain with the Qingyun Order, no matter whether you are a murderer or not, you will be declared to be a murderer by the Qingyun Palace. Do you understand, kid?"

I nodded, I understood what he meant, isn't this just trying to take me on top of the tank?Be the scapegoat for the real murderer?It has been over two hundred years, and it is too difficult to find the real murderer at that time.

If it's like what he said, I'm really in danger, and I'm the unlucky scapegoat.

Thinking of this, my forehead is also sweating.

"So, if you help me now, you are helping yourself. In fact, we are not helping, but cooperating. Do you want to listen to what I want you to do for me? If it succeeds, I can guarantee that you will leave Qingyun Temple safe and sound , go and use Qinghu Grass to save your friend. Otherwise, no matter whether you will be identified as the murderer or not, you will be trapped here for a few days, and your friend will really be hopeless."

What this weird person said may not matter to others.But in my ears, it can be said that every sentence pierced my heart, and every word poked my weakness.

I gritted my teeth, nodded and said, "Okay, you won. Tell me, how can I help you? But first, can you let me know who you are? Why are you locked up here? Why do you know?" They have so many things?"

The man smiled and said, "It doesn't matter who I am. You will know why I am locked up here. I can only tell you that my name is Sun Yulou."

"Okay, Senior Sun, tell me, how can I help you? Wouldn't it be asking me to help you get out of here? I can't protect myself, and I don't have the ability to rescue you." I looked at the grandson. Yulou's whole body was shackled, and said.

"Of course not. Did you bring the guy?"

"I have it. I have a wooden sword and a dagger. They didn't take it away. They're still on me."

"Okay. You take out the short knife and start counting at the tile that goes straight down the hole, count three tiles to your left, and count five tiles back. Pry the fifth tile open and take the contents out Give it to me. Be quick, or I'm afraid they'll come and take you away."

Sun Yulou approached the hole, looked towards me, and directed.

I was full of suspicions, it seemed that Sun Yulou had hidden something in this room.

According to what he said, I first fixed a floor tile directly under the hole, counted three tiles to the left, counted five tiles backward, and found the fifth tile.I pressed it with my hand, and the floor tile was indeed a little loose, and I couldn't see anything unusual without careful observation.

I quickly took out the short knife, which is used to cut things in order to survive in the jungle.It's not very sharp, but the toughness is definitely okay.

I put the knife into the gap between the floor tiles and pried it hard, and the floor tiles became looser.

The floor tiles must have been tampered with by Sun Yulou before, so it was not difficult to pry them off, and soon I pried the floor tiles off the ground.The bottom is black soil, and there is nothing on the surface.

"Dig, dig about half a foot below, you should be able to find something." Sun Yulou observed me from the hole, and gave instructions for the next step.

I nodded and dug down with a knife.

Sure enough, according to what he said, he dug down half a foot, and a small green porcelain bottle was dug out from it, and the mouth of the bottle was sealed.

I took the porcelain vase to the wall and asked, "Is this it?"

"That's right. That's it. If you do this, open the porcelain bottle, and there is a kind of powder inside. You hide the powder under your nails, and be careful not to enter it."

I was taken aback: "Are you poisonous?"

"That's right. You do what I say first, or it will be too late."

I opened the seal on the mouth of the bottle, and there was more than half of the bottle of yellow powder inside.I try to hide the powder under my nails, which is very convenient.

"Okay, give me that bottle." Sun Yulou said after watching me finish.

I plugged the bottle through the hole, and Sun Yulou took the small porcelain bottle with shackled hands, with a joyful expression on his face.

"Then what do I do?" I asked.

"Then it will be easy. I estimate that after a while, they will come and take you away, and they will take you to the main hall of Qingyun Palace. When entering the main hall, there is a procedure of offering incense and prostrating. They will let you personally offer incense , you take this opportunity to apply the powder from your nails to the incense. After doing so, your mission is complete. How about it, is it simple?"

Chapter 1924 The murderer brought

"Are you... are you going to poison the people in Qingyun Palace?" I knew that these powders must be poison, because Sun Yulou told me not to enter them.

"It's not considered poisoning. This powder can't be eaten, but when it burns, it can at most make people stunned, and it can't kill anyone. If you don't do this, how can you leave Qingyun Palace? With force, who can you beat? An ordinary person in Qingyun Palace This is the safest and most effective method. At that time, you will find that white lion protector and let him take you down the mountain. At that time, after he has sucked the medicine powder, his internal energy will be trapped. Of course you don't have to be afraid of him."

I nodded: "Okay. I can only do this... Ah, no, when the incense burns, won't I also be poisoned?"

"Don't worry, since I asked you to help, of course there is an arrangement. You go to the foot of your bed against the wall, there is a package, you take it out and eat it. That is the antidote, you eat it beforehand, It will definitely not be poisoned." Sun Yulou said.

I did what Sun Yulou said, and I actually found the medicine bag under the bed leg, which was firmly pressed by the bed leg.

I took out the medicine bag and asked curiously: "Senior Sun, why are your medicines placed in my room, and you still know where they are?"

"Hmph, of course, I was locked in your room first. These are not important, you take the medicine quickly."

I opened the medicine bag, but there was no medicine powder inside, but a plant fruit that had been squashed, and I couldn't see what it was.This is the so-called antidote?

I was skeptical, but now that I had no choice, I ate the fruit without thinking.

The fruit has dried up and tastes astringent and tasteless.

"Very well, they are almost here, you should quickly lay the bricks and restore them to their original state." Sun Yulou said.

I hurriedly turned around, moved the bed to its original position, re-laid the square brick, and stuffed the piece of wood into the hole. I couldn't see anything from the outside, and then I lay on the bed.

I took a look, and the powder hidden in my nails was still there.It's a good place to hide this thing under the nail.

It seems that Sun Yulou's hearing is also very sensitive. Not long after I cleaned up here, I heard footsteps coming from outside.

It was still the white lion guardian, leading a group of Taoist priests, and opened the door.

"Young man, are you resting well? Our hall master invites you to come over and ask you something. Get up and go with us." The white lion protector looked at me lying on the bed, and said politely.

I nodded, stretched my waist, yawned, and said, "Okay. Let's go."

I went outside and found that the number of people brought by the White Lion Guardian was twice as large as yesterday, and they were all wearing Taoist robes.Moreover, the sky was already bright at this time, and a ray of morning sun happened to shine over Qingyun Mountain, glowing with a golden halo.

Just like yesterday, the white lion guardian walked first, and I followed behind, surrounded by the large group of Taoist priests.They said they invited me over, rather they escorted me to the Qingyun Palace, but they didn't put any instruments of torture on me, and they probably knew that with my means, there was no way I could escape.

We walked up the mountain along the bluestone road we saw yesterday.

I looked back at the place where I lived last night. The house looked very inconspicuous, but I had such an experience inside. I don’t know if this is a blessing or a curse for me.I don't fully believe what Sun Yulou said, but I don't seem to have any reason to refuse his proposal.

I turned to the white lion protector in front and said, "May I ask, when can I leave here? My friend is in danger, waiting for me to go back and save her."

The white lion protector didn't turn his head back, and said: "How many times do I have to tell you before you understand that your friend's life and death have nothing to do with us, and you can't leave Qingyun Mountain until your matter is resolved."

Judging from the behavior style of the people in Qingyun Temple, they don't seem to take my feelings into consideration, and everything is just acting according to their wishes.

This made me even more determined to poison them. No matter what the master of the Qingyun Palace plans to do with me, if I can put the medicine into the incense without anyone noticing, it will indeed be a change from passive to active. Methods.After all, I can wait, but Liang Yue can't.

I followed the white lion protector, climbed up a hill, and turned around a valley.At this time, I was facing the east, the sun had risen, and the sun was pouring down, a little dazzling.

Under the sunlight, a magnificent hall appeared in sight.

The main hall faces south and backs north, and is backed by a green hill. The green tiles and green bricks on the top of the hall have a unique style.The front hall is left and right, separated by bell and drum towers.There is a huge square in front of the main hall, and there are hundreds of people in the square, doing morning exercises.

Those people were wearing Taoist robes, shouting and practicing in the square.Some were punching and kicking, some were practicing long swords, and some were convincing and adjusting their breath. In short, it was a lively scene.

At the same time, a strong smell of incense filled the air, and the sound of bells echoed all around.In front of the main hall, smoke is lingering, like a fairyland.

I recognized it, this should be the hall that looked like a heavenly palace that I saw at the foot of the mountain yesterday.It's just that I was in it at this time, and I felt that he was magnificent.

Presumably, this is the legendary Qingyun Temple.
