Chapter 24: Legend of the Undead in the Book of the Dead (24)
Seeing this, Tang Feng hurried forward to pick up the red sandalwood box.He rushed up to pick up the red sandalwood box that fell on the grass, but for some reason, the wrench on the box opened. As soon as Tang Feng took the red sandalwood box, the jade screen slid out.Seeing this, Han Jiang on the side hurried forward, quickly put the jade screen into the box, and then put it back into Liang Yuan's backpack.

"Why are you so careless!" Han Jiang scolded in a low voice, and at the same time, he glanced at Xu Renyu again.Yu Chaping was safe and sound, and Han Jiang was relieved, but when Xu Renyu, an outsider, saw Yu Chaping, Han Jiang couldn't help but feel palpitations. He tugged at Xu Renyu who was still stunned, and said, "Let's go back first!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Renyu broke free from Han Jiang and shouted at Han Jiang and Tang Feng: "No! I can't go with you anymore."

"Why?" Tang Feng asked back.

"Because of that thing in your bag!" Xu Renyu yelled again.

Xu Renyu's words shocked Tang Feng and others. Tang Feng was stunned for a while before asking Xu Renyu: "What? Have you seen that thing?"

"No! I haven't seen it, but I know it now. Everything we have experienced along the way, Qiangzhai, here, and even the plane crash. All these terrible experiences are related to the thing in your bag. Related, the recording just now made it very clear! Stephen, Zhou Nannan, and maybe Yelena and Makarov, they have all become victims, and I don’t want to be the next one!” Xu Renyu yelled loudly on the empty celestial burial platform , His voice startled the flocks of vultures.

Han Jiang walked over, stared at Xu Renyu and said, "Doctor, please listen to me, I understand your feelings, I don't deny that all these encounters are related to the thing in Liang Yuan's bag, but I want to remind you that you are now It might be more dangerous to leave us."

"More dangerous? Forget it, it's more dangerous to follow you, I don't want to risk my life here!" Xu Renyu shook his head and said.

Tang Feng didn't know how to persuade Xu Renyu.Han Jiang paced back and forth in front of Xu Renyu a few times, thinking about how to deal with this situation, finally, he stood still in front of Xu Renyu, and said seriously to Xu Renyu: "Okay! Doctor, if you insist on leaving us, we will I won’t force you to stay either. But please think clearly, if you leave us now, there are only two ways to go, one is to leave here, and the other is to stay here and wait for the communication to be restored. No matter which way you choose, I We all hope that you can report the plane crash and our situation in time after getting in touch with the outside world. I will give you a number, and you can call this number."

With that said, Han Jiang took out the business card that Xu Renyu gave him, wrote a long string of numbers on the blank space behind the card, and handed it to Xu Renyu.Xu Renyu took a look and said, "This is the phone number? What a strange number!"

"It's a phone number. You must call this number and tell us about the plane crash and our journey. Don't miss any details. Then, someone will protect you and arrange everything for you."

"Protect me? Who are you?" Xu Renyu asked.

"If we are destined, you will know in the future. But please believe in one thing, we are not bad people, we are your trustworthy friends." Han Jiang said sincerely.

Xu Renyu picked up the business card and said, "Friend? Maybe it is! Don't worry, I will make this call." After speaking, he walked down the mountain alone without looking back.Looking at his receding back, Han Jiang couldn't help sighing softly.

Tang Feng, Han Jiang, and Liang Yuan watched Xu Renyu slowly disappear from sight, and also started to walk down the mountain.Along the way, the three of them looked back at the celestial burial platform from time to time. The prayer flags on the celestial burial platform were still swaying in the wind, and they could no longer smell the smell of blood.The three stood still at the foot of the hill, and took a last look at the celestial burial platform on the hill, where Zhou Nannan's body was located.Last night, Zhou Nannan was excited to come to the celestial burial platform to watch the celestial burial. Unexpectedly, today, the celestial burial platform became her destination. Maybe she disturbed the tranquility of the deceased, or maybe she was just a victim.Zhou Nannan's body is being bitten by vultures on the celestial burial platform. May those vultures take her soul far away, into the kingdom of heaven.

At noon, the haze in the sky dissipated, and a rare ray of sunshine appeared. The three of them returned to the town and found that the town was more lively than in the morning.They randomly found a Sichuan restaurant for lunch. Tang Feng and Liang Yuan hadn't come out of the shadow of the celestial burial platform. Seeing the food, they didn't have any appetite, but with Han Jiang's insistence, they still managed to fill their stomachs.

Back at the hotel, Xu Renyu had already checked out the room. Han Jiang used special means to enter Zhou Nannan's room to check, but found nothing suspicious except a stack of hundred-yuan bills from Zhou Nannan's bag.Han Jiang put the money back in the bag and exited the room.

Back in his room, Han Jiang said to Tang Feng and Liang Yuan, "This place is no longer safe, let's leave quickly."

The three of them checked out the room, walked all the way, and soon came to the Geerdi Temple.The Geerdi Temple is not like the common Han temples in the mainland, which surround the entire temple with a wall. The Geerdi Temple is a huge building complex, with large and small temples scattered among the mountains.Tang Feng, Han Jiang, and Liang Yuan carried their bags, like ordinary tourists, from the foot of the mountain, one temple after another, slowly visiting the mountain.Along the way, except for the devout Tibetans who were turning prayers, they didn't meet a single tourist from other places, and they didn't find any suspicious person.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan also followed the example of the Tibetans and went through the scriptures in the long corridor. "Turning scriptures can make people forget their troubles!" Tang Feng said to Liang Yuan, but Liang Yuan couldn't forget the bloody scene she saw on the celestial burial platform in the morning.

After visiting several of the most distinguished silver-topped Buddhist halls in the Gerdi Temple, Tang Feng and the others came to the Great Sutra Hall of the Gerdi Temple.Tang Feng looked at his watch, it was already 4:30 pm.In the Great Sutra Hall, the Sanskrit sounds are long and long, and the lamas' chanting sounds are low and melodious, layer upon layer, spreading far away.In the square in front of the Great Sutra Hall, apart from some locals, a dozen or so foreign tourists gathered in twos and threes, and two or three foreign tourists with blonde hair and blue eyes.

"What is this for? Gathering these people?" Han Jiang asked Tang Feng.

Tang Feng also didn't know, a tourist said: "I heard that there will be an event here soon, let's come and have a look."

Tang Feng observed the Great Sutra Hall, and sure enough, there was a small stone lion on each side of the Sutra Hall.The three agreed to put the jade screen in Tang Feng's backpack, and then put some useless items into Liang Yuan's green backpack and put them next to the stone lion on the right.

After everything was prepared, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan pretended to be a couple in love, and sat not far from the stone lion, making love to each other.Han Jiang mixed into the crowd of onlookers alone, watching everyone present with his sharp eagle-like eyes.

The hour hand was getting closer and closer to five o'clock, and more and more people gathered in front of the Sutra Hall, which may be due to jet lag. At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the sky was still bright.Han Jiang didn't know what would happen next. He looked at the green backpack next to the stone lion for a while, glanced at Tang Feng and Liang Yuan not far away, and glanced at the crowd of onlookers, especially those curious tourists.

A few minutes before 5 o'clock, suddenly, a tall figure appeared in Han Jiang's vision.Yelena!It's Yelena - in the crowd!Han Jiang stood up and walked quickly along the edge of the square towards the place where Yelena appeared.Seeing this, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan followed.Tang Feng asked anxiously: "What's the matter, what did you find?"

"Elena! I see Yelena!"

"What? How is this possible! She's here too?" Tang Feng turned his head and looked into the crowd, but he didn't see Yelena.

Han Jiang walked to the place where Yelena had just appeared. There were several tourists with cameras standing there, but Yelena was not there.Han Jiang stared around, and suddenly, Han Jiang found Yelena's figure again in the crowd opposite.He wanted to walk quickly through the square in front of the Sutra Hall, but at this moment, the hour hand pointed to 5 o'clock, the black curtain in front of the Sutra Hall was gently blown by the wind, and lamas chanting in the Sutra Hall suddenly swarmed out, and suddenly, The square became a sea of ​​red.When Han Jiang left the lamas and walked to the opposite side, Yelena was gone, and the green backpack next to the stone lion was gone too!Han Jiang was extremely angry, but there was nothing he could do.He turned around and looked towards the square in front of the Great Sutra Hall. Some lamas clapped hands, some asked questions, and some muttered words—a grand sutra debate began.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan rushed over and found that the green backpack was missing. Tang Feng was the first to ask, "Who took the backpack?"

"I don't know! The lamas came out just now, the scene was chaotic, and I didn't see anything." Han Jiang couldn't hide his anger.

"Could it be Yelena?"

"She must have turned up, but I'm not sure if she took the bag?"

"If it was her, it would be terrible! Did they kill Nannan? I really can't believe it!" Tang Feng frowned.

"I can't believe it! Do you know where they came from?"

"But I don't think Yelena and Makarov are bad people, let alone such cruel people."

"Fart! If they came here for Yu Jiaping, they would definitely use any means to achieve their goals. However, they underestimated me too much. I also have means to achieve my goals." Han Jiang was so angry at this time. Itches.

"Fortunately, the things are still there!" Liang Yuan comforted Han Jiangdao.Han Jiang checked Tang Feng's backpack and saw that the jade screen was intact. He nodded and felt a little relieved.

"What's next?"

"Keep looking, I'm sure Yelena and the others must have come to Langmusi too." Han Jiang said with certainty.

The three of them scrambled around the huge Gerdi Temple like headless chickens, but found nothing.Tang Feng pointed to a "mountain god's arrow pile" on the top of the hill, and said: "Let's go there and have a look, it can overlook the entire Gerdi Temple."

So, the three of them walked up the hillside again, and when they climbed halfway up the hillside, it was already late.Liang Yuan retreated: "It's getting dark, and we can't see much up there. Let's go back to town and find a hotel to stay."

As soon as Liang Yuan finished speaking, Tang Feng suddenly seemed to have discovered something: "Look, what is on the ground of the Buddhist temple in front of you?"

"Like a piece of paper..."

Curiosity prompted the three of them to walk towards the remote Buddhist temple. A gust of wind blew, and the pieces of paper on the ground of the Buddhist temple were blown into the air, and a few small pieces of paper even flew onto Tang Feng. Tang Feng couldn't help but tremble all over. Trembling, because these white pieces of paper reminded him... "Paper money! It's all paper money!" Liang Yuan's exclamation pierced the tranquility of the temple.

Tang Feng boldly picked up a piece of "paper money" and observed carefully, only to find that the pieces of paper around the Buddhist hall were not paper money, but printed with some Buddhist patterns and Buddhist scriptures in Tibetan that he could not understand.What is this?How could there be a Buddhist temple on this remote hillside?Tang Feng decided to go to the Buddhist temple to find out.

The three of them came to the main entrance of the Buddha Hall, and the gate was closed tightly.Tang Feng looked up at the building. It was a slightly dilapidated Buddhist temple. It was dark inside, and it seemed that no one had lived in it for a long time. "There seems to be something painted on the gate?" Han Jiang reminded Tang Feng.Tang Feng also noticed the pattern on the door. He turned on the flashlight and shone on the door.

As the beam of light slowly cast on the gate, the three of them vaguely saw the pattern on the gate.There is a hideous evil figure painted on the door, holding a sword in his right hand and something in his left hand.Tang Feng couldn't see that thing clearly. When he shone the flashlight on Eisha's left hand, Liang Yuan cried out in shock. Tang Feng was so frightened that he dropped the flashlight on the ground. Even Han Jiang's heart trembled heavily, because At the same time, they saw clearly what was on Evil's left hand - a bloody human head!
Tang Feng and Liang Yuan, who were overly frightened, panicked and turned around in a hurry. They walked along the wall of the Buddhist temple where they came, and were about to leave. Unexpectedly, when they reached the corner of the wall, a person wearing a large Tibetan robe suddenly turned diagonally. Come, Liang Yuan and Tang Feng were really taken aback.The two took a few steps back, and they bumped into Han Jiang who was behind him. Han Jiang was still calm. Looking at the person coming, it was an old Tibetan who was going to the monastery.

The old man was startled by the stranger who suddenly appeared in front of him, but he quickly calmed down, glanced at Tang Feng and Liang Yuan, then lowered his eyes, and continued to turn forward.Han Jiang hurriedly caught up with the old man and asked, "Excuse me, old man, what is this place?"

The old man looked at Han Jiang, said nothing, shook his head, then bowed his head around Han Jiang, continued to move forward, and walked into the vast night. "What a strange old man, he is still going around the temple at such a late hour!" Tang Feng walked over and said.

"And you still don't speak. I was really scared just now." Liang Yuan complained.

"Perhaps they don't understand Chinese." As he said that, Han Jiang bent down to pick up the flashlight on the ground and shine it on the gate, but he couldn't tell what was painted on the gate.One on each side, evil?Keeper?Or King Kong Arhat?Looking at it now, it's not as scary as before, it's just two paintings, but at this moment, the door of the Buddha Hall suddenly opened...

A beam of light also shot out from the door of the Buddha Hall, brighter than the light of Han Jiang's flashlight, piercing Han Jiang's eyes, and Han Jiang was so shaken that he couldn't open his eyes.Instinctively, he pulled out the Type [-] pistol at his waist, and rushed straight for the beam of light in the door.Han Jiang exerted all his strength, but the man saw that the situation was not good, so he backed away.Han Jiang pressed on step by step until the man bumped into a pillar, and there was no way to retreat!Han Jiang put his left arm against the opponent's throat, and pointed the gun at the man's temple with his right hand. At the same time, he smelled a faint fragrance, a smell that only women have.

"Yelena!" Tang Feng called softly from behind.

It was only then that Han Jiang realized that the person he held back was actually Yelena!In the past, Han Jiang would have let go of Yelena in a gentlemanly manner, and then apologized, but this time, Han Jiang did not let go. He yelled at Yelena, "Tell me, did you kill Zhou Nannan?"

"Han! I don't know what you're talking about! You're too... too barbaric." Obviously, Yelena was hurt by Han Jiang.

However, Yelena was not someone to wait for nothing. Seeing Han Jiang, she didn't let go, so she kicked Han Jiang directly to his vitals.Han Jiang had no choice but to let go of Yelena and took a step back, but his gun was still pointed at Yelena, motionless.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan followed in the courtyard.Makarov didn't come up immediately to stop the fight between Han Jiang and Yelena, but poked his head out to look outside the door for a while, closed the door, and then returned to the courtyard.The five people stood in a small courtyard in a daze. No one knew whether the other party was an enemy or a friend.

In the end, Yelena was the first to break the silence: "Han Jiang, you are in great danger and you don't even know it!"

"Dangerous? Huh! Don't worry about it." Han Jiang snorted.

"This is not a place to talk, let's talk in the room." Makarov said to smooth things over.Han Jiang looked at the small Buddhist hall in the courtyard. The inside of the hall was pitch black, and he thought to himself: "A good man is full of guts, even if it is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, he has to break into it!"So Han Jiang followed Makarov and strode into the Buddhist hall.

The inside of the Buddha Hall was pitch black, with no electric lights, only two butter lamps on the confession table, emitting a dim light.Taking advantage of this light, Han Jiang looked around the hall. Except for the confession cases where the butter lamps were placed, the other places were covered with thick dust. In connection with the dilapidated environment of the Buddhist hall, it seems that no one has lived here for a long time.Looking at the ground before the confession, a place was cleared out, and there were two sleeping bags.Han Jiang thought, this is probably where Yelena and Makarov lived.

Tang Feng, Liang Yuan, and Yelena followed Han Jiang into the Buddha Hall. Makarov closed the door of the hall carefully before turning around and saying, "Han Jiang, I didn't expect you to come here!"

"Hmph! Of course. With the two of you here, of course we will not be absent." Han Jiang looked at Makarov hostilely.

"No! Han Jiang, you have misunderstood us, we have no ill intentions towards you." Makarov tried his best to explain.

"No malice? Well, tell me, why did you come here? Is it because of the scenery here?"
