I was taken away by the system

Chapter 173 173. The Festival of Light
No wonder there was so much commotion at the village chief's house. It turned out that it wasn't that someone in the village was attacked by a ghost again, but that they were preparing for the Light Festival of the Ghost Festival!

When they left the village quietly, they went surprisingly smoothly, and now I think it wasn't that the person in charge of monitoring them was negligent.

The Light Ceremony is the most important ceremony in the village, and of course the watchers have to participate.

An extremely terrifying idea suddenly appeared in Jiang Bai's mind.

Was their visit to Qiming Temple part of the village chief's plan?
They had to rush back to the village as soon as possible. No one had ever seen what kind of ceremony the Light Festival was, but since the village chief avoided them on purpose, it meant there must be something wrong with it.

The scorching sun is like a fireball that has just rolled out of the lava. Wherever the light shines, it seems that even the air is scorched, making people feel a little dry.

The downhill road was easier than the uphill road, but they wasted a lot of time in the temple listening to the Hua monk rambling, and it was past noon when they rushed back to the village.

"Did something happen?" Fatty Wang paused, stood at the entrance of the village and looked into the village.

It was still dark when they left the village, and they deliberately avoided the villagers, but when they came back again, they didn't see a single person along the way.

This thing is kind of weird!
Not only did the men farming in the fields disappear, but even the aunts in the village who loved to chatter and play cards disappeared. The whole village was empty for a while, as if all the living people had evaporated from the world.

Jiang Bai raised his eyebrows slightly, and took out a borrowed embroidery needle. This thing was originally used as a hidden weapon for sneak attack during assassination, but now it has another use.

Although it is easy to smash these broken pieces of copper and iron with a skull hammer, and even demolish the whole house, but it has not yet broken face with the villagers, so such a violent intrusion will inevitably cause more troubles.

"Doctor Jiang..." Fatty Wang hesitated to speak, staring blankly at Jiang Bai's smooth operation. It seemed that this was not the first time he had done something like steal a house.

This lockpicking skill is simply better than those of professional locksmiths.

Fatty thinks that if he has no money in the future, he can even ask Jiang Bai for this professional technique to steal a battery car to raise Ergouzi.

Stealing from the rich and helping the poor, that's the life of a hero!
Now Fatty Wang feels more and more that Huyou Villa is simply a large-scale theft group!
If I know so much, will I be silenced by Dr. Jiang?
Thinking of this, Fatty Wang shrank his neck.

"Don't pay attention to the details, I don't know how I can do everything."

Jiang Bai poked the short needle into the door lock. The lock cylinder of this old-fashioned copper lock was simple, and the door was opened after two or three strokes.

motherfucker!

Here it goes!
If it wasn't for the inappropriate occasion, the fat man would have called 666 on the spot.

Fatty Wang has already made up his mind that he must hang out with Boss Jiang in the future. No matter what he does, he will definitely make a fortune by hanging out!

It won't be long before he will be promoted and raise his salary, become the general manager, become the CEO, marry Bai Fumei, and reach the pinnacle of his life.

Thinking about it, I'm a little excited, hehe~
Jiang Bai picked a few more houses and broke in, but without exception, there was no one inside.

The people in the village seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

"Let's go, let's go to the altar." Jiang Bai said, "All the people in the village are gone, either they were all played to death by the ghosts, or they went to participate in the Light Festival collectively. There is the old fox of the village head, who was killed by the spirit It is unlikely that the whole body will end in one pot.”

"So the old village chief still has something?" Fatty Wang was taken aback, "The old man can't do any spells?"

"If he knew magic, he would have wiped out the ghosts in the village long ago. Even a half-step true Buddha monk like Master Puzhi couldn't solve the things in the village." Jiang Bai shook his head, "It's a thief to be old and not die. This guy has lived for so long and the wraiths haven't killed him, ghosts are not necessarily more terrifying than humans sometimes."

"Do you remember what my apprentice once said?" Jiang Bai said while running.

"Your apprentice? Shan Muqing?" Fatty Wang twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking that you are too much, big brother. As the saying goes, you are a teacher for one day and a father for life. You not only tease other people's goddesses, but also want to be other people's fathers.

"'The gate of the underground palace will open, and all ghosts will come out and leave the gate of hell'. Today is Ghost Festival. If you want to deal with ghosts, the best time is undoubtedly at twelve o'clock at noon when the yang energy is the strongest." Jiang Bai thought After thinking about it, "I suspect that the ghost gate is at the altar. If there is a chance, I would like to enter the ghost gate to see what is inside."

"Wow, Doctor Jiang, what do you want to do? The most likely main task is to ask us to unlock the truth about the ghosts in Qiming Village, and we will never let us quell the chaos in Qiming Village!" Fatty Wang was a little creepy. It is even more terrifying than this copy.

Even if a big man like Mr. Zhao Sandao came in person, he didn't dare to pat his chest and say that he broke into the gate of ghosts under restricted conditions and single-handedly killed the troublesome spirit body.

But this guy just visited the villager's house just now, and now he wants to copy the ghost's lair, it's too crazy!

Addicted to stealing?

"If you're afraid of death, you can leave the village first. You're on the edge of the OB. Anyway, after I kill the evil spirits, the bronze door to leave should appear. If you're really worried, go to the Qiming Temple. Master Ruoyu won't make things difficult for you. "As if seeing through Fatty Wang's mind, Jiang Bai showed a sincere smile.

If it was the first time to see Jiang Bai, Fatty Wang might think that this smile is as clean as a clear spring that melts snow in early spring, but now...

He knew just how dark this laughing guy was.

will die!
If you run away, you will be killed!

"Forget it, I'll go with you. That Heyue may not be a good thing." Fatty Wang was a little scared.

Jiang Bai didn't expect that Fatty Wang would have so many inner dramas. He swore that even if Fatty ran away, he wouldn't be able to beat Fatty to death.

……

Indeed, all the villagers went to participate in the Bright Festival.

Jiang Bai and Fatty Wang hid beside the wall, looking at the magnificent altar ahead.

The residents of the entire village gathered under the altar and knelt in several rows in an orderly manner, as if the most devout believers were worshiping a miracle. The scene was a bit crazy.

"This is the Light Festival?" Fatty Wang watched silently. The people in front of him were like countless clockwork dolls, kowtowing tirelessly in prayer, and his heart was a little hairy.

"It seems that they are holding a ceremony now." Jiang Bai nodded, "We are not too late."

"Why didn't you see the village chief?" Fatty Wang scratched his head.

"It's not just the village chief, Yueshuilan is not in there either." Jiang Bai said in a deep voice.
