Ling Jianhua pulled Su Bai up to the second floor, and quietly glanced downstairs on the corridor.

"What is a mortician?" Su Bai was a little puzzled. He didn't know much about the culture here, and he didn't listen carefully to the tour guide's introduction in the car before, so he had only heard of voodoo and witchcraft.

"I knew you would come out, I'm too curious."

Ling Jianhua shook her head, with a helpless expression: "This is a mysterious profession in Miaojiang. The mortician will take the dead clansmen back to their relatives and bury them in the hometown. You almost alarmed them just now."

Su Bai suddenly realized, could it be that there are so many corpses behind these two people: "But why are they here? They also want to stay in a hotel to rest?"

Ling Jianhua let go of Su Bai's grip on the handrail of the veranda, and watched the two downstairs lead the corpse to the back of the gate, and stood neatly against the wall: "This should be a corpse inn, only corpses and morticians live here. If Tourmaline hadn't been stalking the boss, he wouldn't have let us stay here."

"Dead Corpse Inn..."

Tourmaline can't find a good place every time!Su Bai cursed a few words inwardly, and followed him to look around, the corpse really listened to the two men, and stayed quietly behind the door.

Ling Jianhua stared intently at the downstairs, and murmured, "Maybe we can find a breakthrough from here..."

"Oh, I'll be fine this way." Seeing that nothing happened, Su Bai wanted to turn around and go back to his room to continue sleeping, but Ling Jianhua grabbed him: "They are leaving."

What?Su Bai looked back, those two people didn't know what they found, they just took a drink of water, got up and put the money on the counter, picked up the copper bell in his hand and knocked twice, the corpses leaning against the wall trembled twice and moved again He got up, and slowly followed the two of them out.

"It seems that he knew something and didn't stay here." Ling Jianhua leaned closer to Su Bai's ear, "Let's go out and have a look."

Su Bai's eyes were slightly contemptuous: You said that I was reckless and curious, and you yourself...

Before he could open his mouth, Ling Jianhua had already dragged Su Bai downstairs, and Su Bai was dragged out of the inn by Ling Jianhua. The two people in front walked a little hurriedly, and they had passed the mountain road in front of them in a short while.

"Hey, slow down!" Su Bai was out of breath being dragged by Ling Jianhua, and the two of them traveled through the dark forest for an unknown amount of time, being pulled by the outstretched branches from time to time.

Su Bai finally couldn't take it anymore, and when he was about to say something, Ling Jianhua covered his mouth suddenly, an unknown fire surged from his heart, and he stomped on Ling Jianhua's shoes!

"Well!"

Ling Jianhua frowned and snorted, and slowly let go, feeling helpless in his heart. This kind of childish behavior of stepping on girls is not even used by girls, so he is not embarrassed?

Su Bai gave him a sideways look, telling you to pull me out and run so far for no reason, what if you can't find your way back?With their eyes sore, they turned their heads and took a closer look. The two morticians came to an open space and stopped.

"What are they going to do?" Su Bai tugged on the sleeve of the other party, and asked softly with some curiosity.

Ling Jianhua always felt powerless when facing Su Bai: "They have already arrived at the place, the mortician will not bring the corpse to the village, but will only let relatives come to claim it and bury it."

Sure enough, the two men knocked on the copper bell, and after only two knocks, some well-dressed Miao people rushed around with torches in their hands. Some came directly carrying the coffin, and some just carried the corpse away empty-handed.

"Hey, that's it? You can go back after watching it?"

Su Bai shuddered and poked Ling Jianhua. In the middle of the night, the mountain forest was very cold and Su Bai came out wearing only his single clothes. The cold wind blowing from time to time made him suffer.

"Wait, let's follow up and take a look." Ling Jianhua took Su Bai's hand and continued walking.

I really don't understand what he wants to do... Su Bai was puzzled, but Ling Jianhua couldn't be so unreliable in doing things, let's go and see with him for now.

Those two people squatted silently in the dark and saw that the corpse had been claimed, packed up and walked towards the deep mountain, Ling Jianhua and Su Bai quietly followed behind.

After another section of rugged mountain road, the two corpse hunters stopped at a dead end and looked around for a while.

Su Bai and Ling Jianhua lowered their heads and hid in the thick grass. Seeing that they pushed aside the dense vines carefully, a stone cave was revealed!

"Hey..." Su Bai stared at them with his mouth wide open, Ling Jianhua squeezed his hand suggestively, and finally waited for the two people to go in before coming out.

"Is this the secret path?" Su Bai stood where the two were standing just now, and reached out to touch the vines, "Where does this lead to?"

Ling Jianhua nodded, her mood suddenly improved, she patted the dust on her body and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go back."

He brought the bewildered Su Baiyuan back to the inn.

"Where did you go?!"

Just after returning to the inn, Bixi and Jiuyuan were waiting for them at the door, Su Bai was a little dazed by Bixi's shout, Jiuyuan looked at him angrily when he saw that it was Ling Jianhua who brought Su Bai back.

"We...we..." Su Bai tried his best to organize his words, trying to clarify that it was Ling Jianhua who took him to see the dead body out of curiosity, but Ling Jianhua was not in a hurry, put his hands in his pockets and raised the corners of his mouth: "We just went to study How to get in without a ticket."

"You mean... fare evasion?"

Tourmaline and Su Bai looked at Ling Jianhua in unison. It turned out that he was not interested in driving corpses, but wanted to take the opportunity to find a way to enter the Miao Village without tickets?Su Bai had to admit that Ling Jianhua was too cunning.

Jiu Yuan didn't seem to believe Ling Jianhua's words, stretched out his hand and pulled Su Bai to look at him vigilantly, Su Bai stayed beside Jiu Yuan and said, "So, that cave just now is the entrance to the Miao Village?"

"Well, we can go in from there tomorrow." Ling Jianhua nodded. Tourmaline was confused and pestered Su Bai to tell him what happened. After listening, she was reluctantly convinced, but she still mumbled a few words: "Go by yourself." Why do you want to take Su Bai with you..."

"..." Jiu Yuan didn't say anything, but just held Su Bai's hand tightly.

In this way, the plan was made, and when the sky was bright, the four of them would gather together, imitate the two morticians, put the money on the counter and set off.

The road during the day is much easier than at night, and at the same time the scenery is very beautiful. Walking through the mountain trails, surrounded by layers of branches and green leaves, Tourmaline is very irritable: "How long do I have to climb..."

"I don't know...I didn't pay much attention to the road yesterday." Su Bai also felt that it was very difficult to walk. He was dragged by Ling Jianhua yesterday and didn't realize that the road was so rough, but it should be almost there, right?

The four of them walked for a while and finally arrived at the place last night. Ling Jianhua carefully pushed aside the dense cyan vines, revealing a corner of the cave. Su Bai probed in and looked, but there was no one inside.

"It really is..."

Tourmaline sighed, this fare evasion was really not easy, Jiu Yuan looked at it for a moment and walked in first, the cave was not too big or small, just big enough for one person to pass through, so the rest followed behind.

A group of people walked through the dark cave in the dark, and seemed to turn a corner, and suddenly there was a light in front of them.

"Wow!"

Su Bai walked out and squinted his eyes. The outside is also full of greenery. There are large and small valleys and streams not far away. The branches sway in the wind and gently pat the river. The scenery is too beautiful to behold. It’s such a joy to be in this place.”

Tourmaline was also dumbfounded when she saw this: "This is a paradise!" Pointing to the rows of ancient buildings not far from the other side of the river, "Where is the Miao Village?"

Su Bai also looked over and nodded: "It should be."

It was the first time in Su Bai's life that he succeeded in evading fare so easily...

After crossing the bridge, the four of them sneaked into the stockade. The inside is really different from the outside. It is full of simple life atmosphere, and there are no shopping stores everywhere and no small stalls everywhere.

There are already some early-rising women washing clothes by the river, with dried fish and beans drying outside, it is peaceful.

"Let's go over there and have a look?" Tourmaline pulled Su Bai's arm. There were many things inside that could only be seen on TV. Tourmaline looked very excited and pulled Su Bai for a walk, as time passed slowly inside The number of tourists has gradually increased.

Su Bai walked around with Tourmaline, took a few standard photos of tourists, and suddenly glanced at Ling Jianhua and Jiu Yuan who were following behind him.

Ling Jianhua didn't know what to think...

After walking to the river to rest for a while, Jiu Yuan walked to Su Bai's side and was a head taller than him. Su Bai looked up at him slightly, the black hair on his forehead was slightly fluttered by the wind, revealing cold and sharp black eyes , merged with the long-haired man in military armor.

Su Bai suddenly grabbed Jiu Yuan's hand, showing a bright smile: "Jiu Yuan, shall we take a photo?"

Jiu Yuan paused slightly, lowered his head and held his hand instead, stared deeply at the person in front of him, and said in a very weak voice, "Okay."

After Tourmaline reluctantly finished taking pictures of Jiu Yuan and Su Bai, Ling Jianhua came over and said softly, "Let's go to Miao Wang Temple later, shall we?"

"Miao Wang Temple?" Su Bai had seen it on the flyer before, and it was said that it was the temple built when Utuo Tamu migrated here.After hearing this, Bixi got excited and clamored to go, but Su Bai had no objection, since there was no clue now anyway.

Near noon, a group of people walked around and asked, and finally came to the gate of King Miao Temple.

Su Bai looked up at the doorplate engraved with the three big characters of Miaowang Temple, and saw that there were layers of temples built one after another in the distance, and all the pedestrians coming and going in and out of the temple were devout and awe-inspiring.

Cigarettes were lingering inside the temple, although most of them were tourists, but there were also quite a few monks. When he first came in, someone asked him if he needed fortune-telling, Su Bai shook his head and politely refused, anyway, such fake monks are indispensable everywhere.

"I'll look around."

Feeling bored, Su Bai broke away from the main team and wandered around for a while, then accidentally stepped into a backyard with fewer people.

The white courtyard walls, the blue eaves, and the haystacks are fragrant, and there is a row of copper-colored prayer wheels inside. Along with the scriptures coming from a distance, Su Bai approached in a mysterious way.

The slender hands gently covered the golden prayer wheel, and slowly stroked the scriptures on it. An inexplicable sense of sadness filled his heart, and he rubbed his hands repeatedly for a while, preparing to leave.

Suddenly another big hand accurately grasped Su Bai's hand and stuck it, Jiuyuan stood behind Su Bai at some point, his cold and white palm covered the back of Su Bai's hand, both hands were stuck on the prayer wheel, Su Bai Turning around, he broke into Jiu Yuan's deep eyes, and was stunned.

Jiuyuan covered the back of his hand and led Su Bai as he walked and moved, whispering in his ear, telling him: "This is the prayer wheel, engraved with the legendary past life, present life and six-character mantra on it. .”

Su Bai stared blankly at Jiu Yuan holding his hand and turning the prayer wheels one by one, time seemed to be slowed down countless times, only him and him were left in the peaceful and quiet backyard.

"Store scriptures in the scripture tube, and every turn is like chanting scriptures once."

Brushing the rows of prayer wheels with your fingertips, the scenery in your eyes gradually became blurred, and the figures of the two people overlapped with those of a thousand years ago.

Pain suddenly appeared in his heart, Jiu Yuan's deep voice kept hitting Su Bai's nerves, his expression was a little dazed, and he saw the surrounding scenery kept turning like a prayer wheel, as if it had become another distant time and space.

At this time, it was snowing heavily in the sky, and the black-haired man put his cloak on the shoulders of the man in white. The man in white turned around and smiled at him slyly: "I brought an umbrella, but I forgot to open it."

The black-haired man silently took the umbrella in his hand, patted the falling snow off his shoulders, and opened it.

The two stood under the umbrella, embraced the man in white and turned around, behind him was the prayer wheel covered in snow.

"I heard that this prayer wheel was enshrined by the Tubo people. It is engraved with scriptures and six-character mantras. This is at that time..." The man in white was talking about the story of the prayer wheel, and he simply picked up his prayer wheel. Hands go straight up.

"If you want to turn it around like this, you can't break it until the end..."

The man in white held the hand of the man in black intently, brushing the prayer wheel over and over again.

His eyes are full of tenderness and pampering, and he is not afraid of the cold.

In the blink of an eye,

He was left alone, turning repeatedly.
