After hearing my words, Xu Yang stood up without any hesitation.
I walked to the door with him, and the old guy followed me to the door, waved to me and said, "Boss, please be more careful. My skills are low, so I won't go with you."
I looked back at Lao Dao. Originally, I had no intention of taking him with me, but this guy's words gave me an idea.
"Stop talking nonsense and come along." I waved to the old man and said.
After hearing my words, the old man was stunned and opened his mouth with an expression as if he had eaten shit. This guy also knew that he was hurting himself by talking too much.
But there is no way. I just asked Xiaobai to punish him yesterday, and this guy still doesn't dare to be disobedient.
"Alas!" The old man sighed helplessly and followed me into the car.
I have my own idea of letting Lao Dao follow me. Although Lao Dao is not very capable, his ability to escape is first-rate. Generally there is no danger. But what I value more is the talisman on this guy. If it is true
In case of danger, it shouldn't be a big problem to commandeer his two talisman papers.
Xu Yang had just been discharged from the hospital, so he went to the police station first. There were some things that needed to be dealt with. Lao Dao and I waited until the afternoon for him to finish his work. By the time we came out of the police station, it was already evening.
The driver was still the beautiful female police officer. It seemed that she was Xu Yang's most trusted assistant. The woman looked very smart and capable.
The car headed towards the west of the city. I didn't say anything, I was just thinking about what Liu Tiande was doing here.
He originally had a Taoist temple, but it should have been sealed off by the police now. Why did he come to this earth temple again?
We walked to the woods just as the sun was setting. When we got out of the car and smelled the surrounding air, I couldn't help but frown.
The veteran has been following me. He immediately became alert when he saw my expression and asked me cautiously: "Boss, what's going on?"
I shook my head and said, "No, I just feel a bit of a stench, the smell of corpses."
"Really?" Xu Yang turned around and asked me after hearing what I said. Even the female police officer looked at me.
I nodded. Although the smell of corpses was very light and could not be smelled by normal people, it could not escape my nose. There were indeed corpses in the forest.
We walked towards the forest. Although the Earth Temple here had been dilapidated for many years, there was still a vague path in the forest, which I guess should lead to the Earth Temple.
As soon as he entered the woods, Xu Yang took out his pistol, turned on the safety, and loaded the bullet. Seeing Xu Yang's actions, the beautiful policeman also took out his pistol.
The old man shrank his neck, followed me, and said in a low voice: "Boss, those two policemen have guns. We two have nothing. Is there any danger here?"
I ignored him and continued to move forward. Not long after walking, I could vaguely see the appearance of a building in front of me. It should be the Earth Temple that had been abandoned for who knows how many years.
We continued to walk a few steps forward, but after a while I stopped in front of a big tree.
Seeing me stop, Lao Dao and the two policemen also stopped.
"Boss, what's the problem?" The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead nervously and asked me.
I didn't speak, I just stared at the tree in front of me.
This tree is so big that even two people can't hold it in their arms, and it has lush branches and leaves. Even the bark looks very fresh and clean, as if someone has just cleaned it.
The most important thing is that the corpse smell comes from this tree.
"Go and peel off the bark of this tree." I said to the old man.
After hearing what I said, the old man's eyes widened with a look of disbelief on his face, and he said, "Boss, are you okay? How do you peel off the bark of this tree?"
Although he had doubts in his head, the old Taoist still walked over and tapped the bark of the tree with his hand.
Huh!
Hearing the sound coming from the tree, the old man was stunned. Because when he tapped his finger just now, the sound coming from the bark was very strange. It sounded like the bark was hollow.
At this time, the old Taoist paid attention. He stretched out his hand, grabbed the bark of the tree tightly, and yelled, and he actually peeled off a huge piece of bark with his bare hands.
As the peeled bark fell to the ground, the hollow trunk and the contents inside were revealed.
But after seeing what was inside clearly, Lao Dao immediately shouted, jumped up, and hid behind me like a rabbit.
It turned out that there was a person standing inside the tree trunk, a man.
But it was obvious that it was a dead man.
The man in the tree trunk didn't have any clothes on him, he was naked, and his whole body was covered with strange symbols, all drawn with bright red cinnabar. Even his face was covered with paint, which looked extremely weird.
At the moment when Lao Dao escaped, the corpse inside moved, opened his eyes suddenly, then raised his hands and rushed towards me.
"Don't shoot!"
Looking at the body rushing towards me, I did not dodge, but shouted to Xu Yang and the female policeman on the side.
This corpse was just a puppet raised by humans. It was not worth mentioning at all. It posed no threat to me. What I was worried about was that Xu Yang or the female police officer shot on impulse.
The corpse puppet is very close to me now. If it accidentally hurts me, I will be in trouble.
The corpse rushed over, but I didn't move. I just stretched out my hand and dug my nails directly into his heart, and then gently stirred it, shattering the trace of spiritual thought left in his body by the person who controlled him.
The spiritual thoughts disappeared, the body lost control, and fell to the ground with a crash.
I ignored the corpse and walked to another big tree on the other side, opposite this tree. I ripped off the bark of the tree. Before the corpse inside could make any movement, I just pulled it off.
She dug her nails into his chest.
There are four trees in front of me, arranged in four directions: east, west, north and south. There is such a corpse puppet hidden in each tree. In just a moment, I have completely taken care of these four puppets.
"Boss, what on earth are these ghosts?" the veteran asked me with lingering fear.
"These are corpse puppets and they are nothing worth mentioning. Someone put them here because they want to use them to protect something." I said.
After hearing my words, the old Taoist immediately raised his head, looked towards the Tu Tu Temple in front, and said, "Boss, is it possible that there is some treasure in this Tu Tu Temple!"
I ignored this guy's money-obsessed look, and I didn't look at the dilapidated Earth Temple. Instead, I looked toward the middle of the four big trees.
There is a small mound there, just like a tomb, but it is so small that you can't even see it if you don't pay attention.
I raised my legs and walked towards the inside, then stood next to the mound.
call!
At this moment, a gust of wind blew up from somewhere, making the branches above the head rustle, as if someone was crying.
