Villager of Destiny

Chapter 37 Entering the temple
At the same time, I also found a problem.

The paper money that the old woman gave me was a bit different from the paper money I burned in Niang'er Village before. It was cold to the touch, and the texture was also a little different, not like paper.

Not only that, after I threw those paper money into the fire, the fire made a sizzling sound, and the fire became extremely vigorous.

This situation is the same for Uncle Ghost and Old Alcoholic.

It's just that they didn't seem to feel any difference.

But soon I still felt something was wrong.

Because the ghost uncle and the old alcoholic kneeling next to me suddenly became very quiet, and their movements of burning paper money became surprisingly consistent, like puppets, every step was very synchronized.

I couldn't help frowning.

Just about to speak.

But suddenly felt a hand on my shoulder, I turned my head to look and was startled.

I saw the old woman standing behind me at some point, with her hands on my shoulders, and she was grinning and looking at me. Those white eyes were looking at me, which made me feel dizzy instantly. Numb.

"what are you doing?"

I looked at her with some horror.

The old woman smiled and said indifferently: "You have the aura of a city god on your body, you should be a village guard, but you don't have traces of God's punishment. Who are you, the old lunatic?"

I froze for a moment.

I didn't expect someone to mention the old madman here.

But I didn't rush to answer, but looked at her.

"what are you saying?"

The old woman didn't care, she just glanced at Uncle Gui and the old drunkard who were still burning paper money and said: "The old lunatic also came here back then."

"I met him once."

"You feel a lot like him to me."

I fell silent.

The old woman continued: "You don't have to be too nervous."

"Of these two people, one is the guardian of Fengling Village, but the city god has been dead for many years. Although he is a village guardian, the soul of his body has not been taken away by the city god."

"another……"

The old woman's eyes fell on the old drunkard, she smiled, but did not continue.

"If I'm not mistaken, old lady, you should all come here for the spirit coffin, right?"

This time I didn't deny it.

She has already talked about this point, and obviously knows more than that. In this case, it is meaningless for me to deny it.

I nodded and said, "I did come here for the spirit coffin."

"Someone told us that if we want to find the town spirit coffin, we must first find the Earth Immortal Sword and the Soul Attracting Orb, and the Earth Immortal Sword is in the Town God's Temple."

A look of surprise flashed in the old woman's eyes.

"The Earth Immortal Sword is indeed in the Town God's Temple."

"But if you want to get it, you have to die."

"It's up to you..."

The old woman shook her head.

"Let's go back as soon as possible."

I shook my head and said, "I know it's difficult, but since you can see that I'm a village guard and you can see the difference in me, you should know that Lingling Coffin is very important to me."

"So I have to get the Earth Immortal Sword no matter what."

The old woman looked at me and said, "Why don't you let the old madman come here in person?"

"He came in person, the Earth Immortal Sword is just something in his pocket."

I smiled wryly and said, "The old lunatic passed away ten years ago."

"died?"

I nodded.

The old woman fell silent for a moment.

It took her a while to laugh.

It was just that there seemed to be an inexplicable emotion in the laughter.

complex.

Still sad.

I can't tell the difference.

But I can feel that she and the old lunatic should be more than just acquainted.

But I didn't ask much.

After a moment she sighed slightly.

"Let's go anyway."

She turned her back, didn't look at me anymore, but walked towards the tombstone engraved with the word "City God", put her hand on the tombstone and waved to me.

"Go."

"But remember, after entering the Temple of the City God, no matter who you meet, you can't believe it."

I nodded suspiciously, then glanced at Uncle Ghost and the old smoker who were still burning paper.

Neither of them responded when I spoke to the old woman.

Seeming to know what I was thinking, the old woman spoke again.

Only this time her voice became a little colder.

"The two of them have to wait."

"Don't worry, they won't die."

I hesitated for a while, but in the end I didn't choose to ask more questions.

This old woman gave me a very dangerous feeling, even if she mentioned the old lunatic, even if she was still kind to me.

However, I could feel that she had no intention of hurting Uncle Gui and the old alcoholic. After thinking about it, I walked quickly towards the Temple of the City God.

Soon I came to the Temple of the City God.

The Town God's Temple is very dilapidated. At first glance, most of the bricks and tiles outside have fallen off. It should be that no one has repaired and cleaned it for a long time.

And at the main entrance of the temple, I saw the familiar black and white coffin again.

And more than one bite.

Those black and white coffins stretched all the way along the main entrance to the Town God's Temple, and seemed to fill the entire Town God's Temple.

I watched and gasped.

If there are so many black and white coffins in Fengling Village, there are people from Fengling Village, then who are the people in these coffins here?

I remember Uncle Gui said that those who went to the ghost mountain to look for the spirit coffin all died on the ghost mountain, and it is for this reason that the ghost mountain has become so dangerous.

But Uncle Ghost did not say that there are still these things in the Temple of the City God.

And if the people lying in these black and white coffins were also those who came to look for the Zhenling coffin, who put them in it?

After hesitating for a while, I decided to go in and have a look.

After all, he has already arrived here, and it is impossible to retreat before the battle.

It's just that I just stepped into the Town God's Temple, and suddenly I saw a figure inside the temple, that figure was crouching in front of a coffin, looking very inferior under the night light.

I was taken aback, and subconsciously took out the soul repressing rope and the corpse cutting sickle.

At this moment, the figure stood up straight.

I suddenly felt a little familiar.

And he seemed to see me too, and walked towards me quickly.

I immediately raised my heart, and at the same time prayed that this figure was not the kind of resentment that appeared in the coffin in Fengling Village.

But soon I was dumbfounded.

"Ghost uncle?"

I rubbed my eyes in disbelief.

Uncle Gui soon came to me, and he was obviously relieved to see it was me.

"where did you go?"

"I……"

I am a little confused.

Didn't Uncle Ghost and the old drunkard be left behind by that old woman? How could they have arrived here one step earlier than me?
I took a step back subconsciously, stared at Uncle Ghost and said, "Who are you?"

Seeing my reaction, Uncle Gui frowned immediately.

"Did you see something?"

"We got separated not long after we went up the mountain..."

"Impossible!" I shook my head while staring at him firmly: "Uncle Ghost is obviously with me all the time, and there is also an old drunkard."

"who are you?"
