Chapter 62 This place really has a problem

Climbing up the courtyard wall and looking down from a height, Lu Yao could see an old man sitting in the lobby of the compound.

The old man's face was wrinkled, his eyes were cloudy, and there was almost no vitality in his body. No wonder Miao Buhua said that he was going to die. The decayed smell from this old man could be smelled clearly from such a distance.

In front of the hall, that is, in the central courtyard, the Zhishan abbot in cassock is surrounded by a group of monks, opening the altar to give lectures.

Lu Yao didn't understand what was being read, but just looking at the wooden fish, the bowl on the altar, and the Buddhist beads in his hands, Lu Yao only felt two words, professional.

"Do they really have any magic power?"

Thinking of the few words he heard before, Lu Yao seems to have heard that this group of monks came from Tianlan City, seems to be the host from a big place?
"I don't know meow, so we have to be cautious meow? If there is any mana meow, let's run away quickly."

Miao Buhua's location is very hidden. After walking on the wall for a while, she hid in a place with cornices and raised feet, where she could hide her figure.

People here generally don't like the black cat, thinking it is an unknown source.

Lu Yao glanced at the monk who was chanting Buddha, and then looked elsewhere.

The duration of the transparent potion was only half an hour, so he had to find a suitable hiding place as soon as possible before it expired.

It didn't take long for Lu Yao to find the location.

He jumped towards the inner courtyard, leaned against the wall, and walked to a side room.

Then, through the gap in the window, Lu Yao took a look inside. The room was full of firewood, which seemed to be a firewood room.

Turning around, he took another look at the monks sitting on the tuanfu. These monks were chanting scriptures with their eyes closed, while the old village man in the lobby stared at the monks motionless, not looking in his direction at all.

Seeing this, Lu Yao slapped the tiger's palm lightly, opened the window a little, and then jumped into the woodshed.

Not long after, a black shadow passed by, and Miao Buhua followed.

"Compared to the last time I came here, there are a few fewer people in the entire compound, meow."

Miao Buhua seemed to know the population of the village chief's house very well, and told Lu Yao about the situation of the whole compound as soon as he got into the woodshed.

The village chief's family initially consisted of more than ten members, including 3 sons, 2 daughter-in-laws, 3 grandchildren, 4 servants and 2 maids.

Just now, Miao Buhua went around the inner courtyard of the house and found that there were only 4 people left in the whole mansion, the village head, the village head's son and 2 servants.

As for the monks in the compound, they were all invited by the village head to pray.

"These monks were invited by the village chief to exorcise ghosts? What kind of ghosts are these?"

At this time, the sound of chanting stopped, and soon some servants brought water to these monks, and the head host walked up to the village head and said something to him.

Lu Yao glanced at the monk, then turned to look at Miaobuhua.

"Yes, there are still a group of Taoist priests in the backyard, holding talisman papers and posting meows everywhere."

"As for what a ghost looks like, isn't it meowing like a human? Except that it can come out at night, it won't come out during the day."

"We'll wait here until night, verify your ability, and then leave Meow."

If you can't trigger the task, it's just a waste of time here, meaningless.

Lu Yao nodded in agreement.

Miao Buhua only stayed in the firewood room for a while, but couldn't stay any longer, left a sentence to go to the backyard to see the Taoist priest, and ran out again.

Lu Yao glanced enviously, he also wanted to go to the backyard, but looked at the remaining time of the transparent potion, and gave up this idea.

Let's observe this group of monks and see what skills they have.

Just then, the skinny monk he met on the road came back.

He glanced at the host who was communicating with the village head, and gestured. Not long after, the host resigned and came to the thin monk.

"Chang Jing, have you sent all the food back?"

The monk who transported the food was called Chang Jing, and the food was the incense money given to them by the village head. The village didn’t use the money even if they had money, and they used the food as money for sesame oil.

"It's all delivered to the carriage, Master. Brother Chang Wu has already set off and will deliver the food to the temple soon."

The Zhishan host nodded, and then asked: "Did you find out what I asked you to inquire about?"

"I've found out clearly. There used to be a hundred people in this village, but now there are only a dozen or so people left. There is a real problem with this village."

"Is there really a problem with this village?"

Hearing this, Host Zhishan frowned.

"Have you asked why?"

"I asked, and the villagers in the village didn't know what was going on. They just woke up after sleeping and found that there were fewer people in the village."

"In the beginning, there were only one or two people missing, and the villagers didn't take it seriously, but recently more and more people were missing, and there were only a dozen or so people left."

"Some people said it was caused by monsters. The village head invited several monks to see it, but they didn't find any problems. We are the fifth batch."

"Did you find any problems? Those villagers found that someone was missing, didn't they hear anything?" Zhishan asked.

"The villagers at the bottom of the mountain don't know anything, they just say that when they wake up from sleep, they find that there are fewer people in the village, oh, and they also say that it's all the fault of the village chief, who killed the whole village .”

Monk Chang Jing didn't get any valuable information, and the villagers only talked about this after going over and over again, and they didn't know anything else.

"I had a good conversation with the village head. I feel that the village head doesn't seem like a person who does evil, and there are also people missing from the village head's family."

The host frowned, the previous temptation was vivid in his memory.

The village head is old, and even the coffin is prepared at home. He just wants to fulfill his last wish before he dies, to get rid of all the evil things that harm people in the village.

In the front yard, a group of monks were praying for salvation, but in the back yard, Taoist priests from Jianqing Temple were still posting talisman papers.

Although they were not interested in the Taoist priests, and were even a little disgusted, this was the last wish of the former village head, so they didn't pay too much attention to it, and organized the puja one after another with these Taoist priests.

"But I really feel that this place is a bit evil, the host, let's run away."

"The villagers have been saying that they can't get out and can only wait to die in the village, but it's okay for me to deliver food."

Monk Chang Jing had some worries on his face, trying to dissuade the host from leaving.

Many villagers went missing in the village. It was said that something evil had caused it. According to the descriptions of those villagers, this incident cannot be faked. There is a real problem in this village.

"Amitabha, too many people have disappeared, and the villagers have become delusional. It's only natural. This time the ceremony will last for 7 days, and the poor monk can't leave yet."

Speaking of this, the Zhishan presiding officer looked compassionate, like an eminent monk.

It's absolutely impossible to just leave like this, let alone they have already collected the sesame oil money in advance.

"Host, I heard from the villagers that there is a black cat in this village that haunts the soul. The black cat is elusive, and every time it appears, it will take away many villagers."

"You still believe this?"

The Zhishan host looked at the thin monk suspiciously, wondering if this guy was his apprentice.

"I didn't believe it at first, host."

"But when I went down the mountain to transport food, I saw that black cat with my own eyes."

"At that time, I didn't respond, and I even cursed. As a result, halfway through the walk, I suddenly shivered and trembled all over."

"Oh, what did you find?"

The host became curious. Ordinary black cats naturally couldn't scare them. It was because he found something unusual that led him to tell the story.

"I suddenly remembered. There was something behind that black cat. I couldn't see it, but I could feel it. It was huge and terrifying."

"That's why I was shaking with fear."

Monk Chang Jing only noticed the black cat at first, but when he walked down the mountain, he realized after a while that what he was afraid of was not the black cat, but the invisible terror following behind the black cat.

Reminiscent of the news that came out of the villagers, Monk Chang Jing believed that the black cat was the culprit for the disappearance of the villagers.

"Master, what I said is true, there is something wrong with this place."

After finishing speaking, Chang Jing added another sentence, with fierce words.

The Zhishan presiding officer was not asking any questions, but just squeezed the prayer beads in his hand, as if he was thinking about something.

"Black cat? It's not impossible."

After muttering, as if he had made some decision, the host put away the prayer beads in his hand, and was about to confess to Chang Jing, at this moment, an angry reprimand suddenly sounded.

"Monster, where else do you want to escape? It's you who ate the villagers of Niujia Village and killed the lives of Niujia Village. Today I will do justice for the heavens and take away your evil."

A group of angry Taoist priests rushed out from the backyard, and in front of them, a black cat with a black body and a vigorous body was running away.

"Abbot. It's that black cat!"

Chang Jing stretched out her hand and quickly recognized it.

When Abbot Zhishan saw the group of Taoist priests, he was taken aback for a moment, then his expression changed, and he hurriedly shouted: "My apprentice discovered this monster first, you bunch of bull-nosed monks, don't try to take advantage of the poor monk."

After finishing speaking, the abbot turned his head back, looked at the monks who were still resting on the tuanpu, and roared angrily: "What are you still doing? Disciple Chang Jing found the trace of the monster, and you still don't follow me to quickly subdue the monster."

After finishing speaking, he grabbed Chang Jing and followed the Taoist priests.
