Chapter 433 Reasoning Notes 9: The Legend of the Lizard God (41)
For the next few hours, the weird girl in the bamboo hat was on the platform, either doing some religious ceremonies, or sitting and chanting scriptures.Although I don't understand it, it should be about praying for blessings or something.In short, time passed gradually in such a sacred atmosphere.

Mi Kaka, Qi Mu and others stayed in the living room of the mansion.

Qi Mu stood at the window, raised the curtains, and observed the people sitting quietly outside the house.He was looking for possible malice in the crowd with his criminal master's keen intuition.After all, maybe among these people, there is a murderer pretending to be a lizard god.

"Did you find anything?" Mikaka was also very nervous, standing next to him and asked.

Qi Mu shook his head.

The time is now ten o'clock, two hours before midnight, and the Lizard God Festival will end.In the living room at this time, Xie Xiuzhe and Ding Lihan were anxiously pacing back and forth, while Lin Shan was very calm, sitting on the sofa and drinking tea leisurely.As for his accompanying driver, he just called and said that Oda had just passed the critical period and was now admitted to the ICU of the hospital.So Lin Shan ordered the driver to stay in the hospital and take good care of Xiaotian.It has to be said that this rich second generation is unexpectedly considerate, not at all arrogant and domineering like a dude.

"By the way, where is Gu Yingliang?" Qi Mu suddenly found that the female classmate was not in the living room.

Mi Kaka said: "She went up to see Ran Yuxuan just now, and said she was worried that something might happen to her."

Just as he was talking, Ding Lihan couldn't hold back any longer and ran upstairs, even the housekeeper Zhang couldn't hold back.Halfway through the run, he stopped suddenly and looked up at the corridor on the second floor.

I saw Ran Yuxuan, accompanied by Gu Yingliang, slowly walking down.Because it is an adult style, she is dressed very grandly: half of her long hair is naturally tied behind her head in a beautiful bun, and the other half hangs naturally on her shoulders; she wears pure white clothes with classic shoes, and a beautiful belt that fits her body She was tied to the back, as if she was covered with a snowflake; her face was slightly powdered, pink blush swept across the crystal clear skin, and her fresh lips were as beautiful as petals.

She is so beautiful!

Ding Lihan, who was looking up to her, was stunned by this beauty.

But she always lowered her eyes to look at her feet. In her beautiful eyes, there was an unconcealable sadness.She must be worrying in her heart: tonight, the curse of the lizard god will come true.

"Xiaoxuan, nothing will happen. Don't worry, I will protect you." Ding Lihan said very solemnly.

She smiled wryly at the corner of her mouth, but said nothing.

The three of them walked down the stairs together.Qi Mu and Mi Kaka left the window and greeted them.

"Is everything okay?" Qi Mu asked Gu Yingliang for the sake of caution.She shook her head, indicating that the situation was normal.Qi Mu was still worried, so he asked Mi Kaka to go up to check.As a result, nothing suspicious was found.

At least, so far, it's still calm.

But, this is the calm before the storm.No one can predict what kind of bloodbath will happen after tonight.

Everyone sat on the sofa, relatively speechless for a while.Everyone is preoccupied.Tonight, destined not to sleep.

"Xiaoxuan, it's time." At this moment, Ran Xiao came back from the outside.He looked at his watch and said.

The coming-of-age ceremony will be presided over by the strange woman in the hat, and then Ran Yuxuan will be sent to the Lizard Temple to wait until dawn tomorrow.

During this period of time, accidents are most likely to happen.Because the Lizard Temple does not allow outsiders to enter, Ran Yuxuan can only stay inside alone.No one can guarantee that she will not have any problems.Therefore, Lin Shan asked Ran Xiao one thing in advance.

"Can we go in and check the temple?"

"Why?" Ran Xiao was a little displeased. Even though he had a good impression of this handsome young master, it was always taboo to enter the Lizard Temple, and he would not agree casually.

"I'm afraid that someone will be unfavorable to Miss Ran." Lin Shan said honestly.

This is also what Qi Mu and Mi Kaka are worried about.They have encountered many murder cases in secret rooms.And isn't this lizard temple just a ready-made secret room?If someone intends to use this as a stage to start a murderous incident, what a terrible thing it would be.

"Father, please." As the person involved, Ran Yuxuan felt more uneasy than anyone else.

In order to appease her daughter's emotions, Ran Xiao also decided to be lenient.

He looked at Lin Shan, "Only you can go in."

This sentence is equivalent to breaking the thought of Mi Kaka and Qi Mu going in together.

"Don't worry. I will check carefully." Lin Shan seemed to be speaking for Mi Kaka and the others.

Accompanied by Ran Xiao, Lin Shan entered the Lizard Temple.Others are waiting outside.After a few minutes, he came out.

"How is it?" Mikaka asked impatiently.

Lin Shan told him that this lizard temple is a wooden building with no windows and no skylight on the roof, and the only entrance is the front door.In other words, this is a secret room.If the murderer wants to sneak in, he has to go through the door.

"I will guard the door tonight!" Ding Lihan was concerned about the safety of his sweetheart, and decided to wait outside the door all night without sleep.

"This is not enough." Qi Mu said, "I think we must step up inspections around the house to be completely at ease."

"I agree." Mikaka then made an agreement with everyone to guard the four sides of the Lizard Temple all night in three batches.

The first batch is Qi Mu and Lin Shan.

The second batch is Xie Xiuzhe and Gu Yingliang.

The third batch is Mi Kaka and Ding Lihan.

In this way, if someone wants to enter the house and kill someone, it is basically impossible.

After hearing this plan, for some reason, Ran Xiao snorted coldly, as if feeling very disdainful.

"Xiao Xuan is the Lizard God. No one can kill the Lizard God." He said.

At that moment, a trace of unknown treachery flashed in his eyes.

Time passed quietly amidst the chattering chanting of the strange girl in the bamboo hat.

The people sitting cross-legged at the gate of the temple waiting for the ceremony to end were drowsy, while in the hall here, Qi Mu and Mi Kaka and their group sat on the sofa and waited quietly.

Every minute and every second seemed to slow down.

Near midnight, the forest outside the window has penetrated into the boundless darkness, the slender branches point to the sky, and all the details of the scenery are mercilessly swallowed by the darkness.

Sleepiness gradually climbed to everyone's eyelids.

Finally, "Dang Dang Dang!"

The chime of the clock echoed in the hall.The hour hand pointed to twelve o'clock.The ceremony is over.

Outside the temple, the strange girl in the bamboo hat also let out a long sigh of relief.As if she had exhausted all her strength, she wearily stepped off the stage to rest.

Now, it's Ran Yuxuan's turn to play.As the reincarnation of the lizard god, she had been silently waiting in place. At this time, she stood up solemnly, walked slowly, and walked into the darkness of the temple with her snow-white figure.

Behind her, the wooden door slammed shut with a creak.Inside the door, there was a heavy sound of the bolt closing.

The silver-white moonlight blocked everyone's sight.

The nerves of Mi Kaka and the others tensed accordingly.

What will be waiting for them tonight?

"It's finally over. Go back."

The residents who had been suffering all night were finally liberated at this time.Their thighs were numb from sitting a long time ago, and they wished they could go home and rest quickly.As a result, people left Lizard House together one after another.The figure gradually dispersed.No one cares, there is a lonely girl in the lizard temple.

Nobody wants to stay here.

Everyone wanted to get out of here quickly.

The Lizard Temple became depressed and deserted again.As the evening wind blows, the deep woods sway with the songs of nature, and the gradually pale moonlight reflects the gradually icy courtyard.The Lizard Temple looks like a lonely old man, watching the residents who are walking together from a distance.

However, at this time, two figures were seen walking from the country road towards the Lizard House against the flow of people leaving.One of them was wearing neat and clean clothes, but his demeanor was very stable.The other was brisk and dressed in cheap, generic tracksuits.The two walked quickly and rushed all the way.

When they gradually approached, everyone realized that it was Yu Zhan and Li Xiaochong.

"Why are you here?" Mikaka asked.

Li Xiaochong said solemnly: "Uncle Yu said that something big might happen tonight, so we have to stay here and guard."

It turned out that they were here for reinforcements.Mi Kaka originally thought that the two policemen's late-night visit meant that something serious happened in the town again!Now, it's just right to have both of them.It's easier to do things with more people, at least you can have more strength when you meet the Lizard God.Mi Kaka felt quite relieved: "There are so many people here, I guess the Lizard God will not dare to mess around again."

Yu Zhan didn't say anything, he went straight to Ran Xiao and said, "Mr. Ran, we plan to keep watch here, don't you mind?" He looked straight at Ran Xiao, with a calm but sharp gaze, as if all the hidden The truth cannot escape those wise eyes.

Ran Xiao shrugged, saying it didn't matter.

So Yu Zhan turned around and asked Mi Kaka again: "Did we find anything unusual before we came?"

Mikaka reported that everything was fine.After hearing this, Yu Zhan looked around, only to find that Ran Yuxuan was gone.

"Where's Miss Ran?"

Mikaka replied: "Just entered the Lizard Temple."

Next, just make sure Ran Yuxuan gets through the night safely.Yu Zhan looked towards the closed wooden door. At this moment, there was silence around the temple, only the trees swaying in the breeze.The birds flew low, and the full moon circled the clouds.Night, lifeless.

Hope everything goes well tonight.

In order to further confirm Ran Yuxuan's situation, Yu Zhan deliberately walked to the gate of the temple, and shouted twice outside, "Miss Ran, are you okay?"

Ran Yuxuan's voice came from inside: "I'm fine." It seemed that she was fine.

At this point, all is well.
