let go of my skin fairy

Chapter 9 The Temple of the Earth: Siege
Huaian County.

On the gate of a mansion, there is a pear wood plaque with three big characters written in Qin seal script - Ye Detective Division.

The Great Qin ruled the country with prefectures and counties, and each county has a night investigation office. In addition to cutting out local evil spirits, the more important thing is to supervise the officials.

"Dengdengdeng!"

A girl with bright eyes and white teeth, exquisite facial features, and a green skirt stepped on the stone ladder and ran towards a pavilion on the rockery in the mansion, looking extremely eager.

In her hand was a small brass lamp with a small animal carved on it, with two horns, covered with yellow scales, and with a lamp wick in its mouth, almost exactly the same as Liang Ping'an's.

As the girl ran desperately, the lights flickered and looked like they might go out at any moment.

"I'm Liang Wan'er, I want to see Sister Ji! My cousin went to Xiaoshan Village to participate in the night watchman assessment today, and now his soul lamp is about to go out!"

The girl ran and shouted.

Because, in front of the pavilion, there were still two maids standing.

One of them was wearing a black dress and the other was wearing a white dress, with thin willow eyebrows painted on their faces, pink rouge on their faces, and lips as small as cherries.

Each of the two maids holds a lamp, both of which are used for traveling. The inside is made of bamboo strips, and the outside is pasted with translucent white paper, with two big characters written on each of them, one is black and the other is white.

"Let Wan'er come up."

A crisp voice came from the pavilion, the voice was like a lark, soft and sweet.

Liang Wan'er didn't wait for the two maids to respond, and immediately rushed up protecting the soul lamp, and the two maids also got out of the way when Liang Wan'er was about to bump into him.

"Sister Ji, save my cousin, he is dying!"

"Put the lamp on the desk."

"it is good!"

Liang Wan'er carefully placed the Soul Lamp on the stone table in the middle of the pavilion, and then stepped back three steps, looking nervously at a girl in a long black and white dress behind the stone table.

The lights flickered.

A face so beautiful that it makes one's heart tremble is looming under the light.

The beauty of a young girl is not the kind of frost that stands high and rejects others thousands of miles away, but a peerless beauty who seems to have fallen into the world.

Her eyebrows are slender, with a gentleness like water, and the corners of her eyes are slightly raised, revealing a spiritual wisdom like a fox.

The two different styles are perfectly blended together, coupled with the touch of nobility in the expression, it can be called flashy but not arrogant, charming but not coquettish.

She is Ji Ruxue!

The youngest chess player in Daqin!

Ji Ruxue got up slowly, and waved lightly on the stone table with one hand.

Immediately, silver-white silk threads danced on the stone table.

The silk thread was as thin as a hair, and as long as a green willow, continuously criss-crossing as it danced, and soon appeared as a three-foot-square chessboard.

Then, her right hand stretched out towards the chessboard, two slender and white fingers appeared a white chess piece at some time.

"Snapped!"

White fall.

It is settled in the Tianyuan position of the mold plate.

At the same time, four black pieces appeared around the white piece, tightly surrounding the white piece.

"Huh? In a small night watchman assessment, there will be a deadly situation surrounded by four ghosts." Ji Ruxue's slender eyebrows frowned slightly.

"Ah? Sister Ji, please help my cousin, please!" Liang Wan'er wanted to kneel down.

"Wan'er, you and my sister, there's no need to do this." Ji Ruxue raised her right hand lightly again, and Liang Wan'er, who hadn't knelt down, stood up involuntarily.

"Sister Ji!" Liang Wan'er's eyes turned red.

"Don't worry, Wan'er, why don't you think about your cousin's funeral first." Ji Ruxue's mouth was slightly raised, her chest was proudly raised, her style was like a peerless enchantress.

"???" Liang Wan'er.

……

……

There are actually two reasons why Jiang Chaoge could guess that the old man would come to the Earth Temple. One, Ah Li's joyful expression; two, the old man tied Liang Ping'an's body too tightly.

However, he couldn't guess the real purpose of the old man pushing Liang Pingan's body to the Earth Temple.

If it's just for hiding the corpse, the mountains and fields are obviously more suitable, and there is no need to walk five miles of mountain roads.

Moreover, the Earth Temple is not a good place to hide corpses.

In this era, believe in the gods.

In the Earth Temple, people offer incense and worship, and some passers-by even spend the night in the Earth Temple and hide their corpses in the Earth Temple, where they can be easily discovered.

So, what is the reason why the old man didn't bring Liang Ping'an's body here?
"Grandpa, the village chief, we are going home!"

"Go home?" Liang Ping'an woke up suddenly, and seemed to have noticed the Earth Temple in front of him: "What is this place? Earth Temple? Why did you bring me here?!"

The old man didn't answer, and the two Ah Li held hands and ran towards the Earth Temple.

Jiang Chaoge continued to observe from behind.

The earth temple in front of me is obviously not built recently, because the walls are already a little old, and there are many holes in it, which are formed by the bluestone after years of wind and sun.

The temple gate of the Earth Temple is painted with red paint, but the paint has peeled off a lot, and there are even a few knife marks and two muddy footprints on it.

The old man pushed the wheelbarrow to the gate of the temple.

Then, he quickly untied Liang Ping'an's body from the wheelbarrow, and his movements were very skillful.

After untying Liang Ping'an, he carried Liang Ping'an's body on his back again, and walked towards the temple step by step with steady steps.

And one of them, Ah Li, walked up to Jiang Chaoge at this time: "Brother, this is the Earth Temple I told you about, brother, do you want to spend the night here tonight?"

"I'm not staying overnight, I'm just passing by, just take a look and leave." Jiang Chaoge shook his head.

"Brother is such a good man!" Ah Li grinned.

"..."

Liang Pingan seemed to see some problems, and immediately shouted: "I'm not staying overnight, I'm just passing by, can you let me go?"

"Bad guy!" Ah Li glared at Liang Ping'an: "You just entered the earthen house, and you still looked at me with a mirror and stabbed me with a sword, hmph!"

After speaking, Ah Li entered the Earth Temple again.

Liang Ping'an was obviously a little uncomfortable. He wanted to go up and fight for his life, but there was really only one way to kill this thing, not to mention that he knew Ah Li's strength very well.

Jiang Chaoge did not immediately enter the Earth Temple.

Because, he had a vague feeling that there seemed to be something terrifying in the Earth Temple. This was not based on intuition, but the yin energy in this Earth Temple, which was very heavy!

Those who are pure yin without yang are ghosts; those who are pure yang without yin are immortals; those with mixed yin and yang are human beings.

This is not only the difference between ghosts, immortals, and humans, but also the cultivation routes of ghosts, immortals, and humans. If ghosts want to become stronger, they can only absorb Yin Qi continuously.

"Senior, I have already told you everything in the notes, why don't you save me?" Liang Pingan seemed to put his only hope on Jiang Chaoge.

"I didn't say I wanted to save you." Jiang Chaoge blinked his empty eyes, then pointed at A Li who had entered the Earth Temple: "Did you forget? I'm with her."

"..."

Liang Pingan was stunned, but immediately said in a low voice: "I know that senior and her are not in the same group. Senior's cultivation is unfathomable, how could he be with ghosts? If my guess is right, senior is looking for an opportunity to make a move. Right?"

Still a little clever ghost?
Jiang Chaoge remained silent, it didn't matter whether he was in the same gang or not, the important thing was that he was not a senior at all.

Therefore, he didn't talk to Liang Ping'an anymore, but slowly approached the temple gate by the faint moonlight, and looked into the temple.
