Ghost husband and domineering: waiting for you to be reincarnated

Chapter 167 Taoist Temple
I fell asleep leaning against Qin Lin, but felt in a trance that I was already in Ke's village.

I have dreamed many times recently. At this time, I was in a daze. Half of my heart knew it was a dream, but half felt it was very real.

I got up from the bed, walked out of the room, and found that the room I was in was Ke Rui's home.

This must be her dream again, trying to tell me something.The person in this dream is not me, but more likely Ke Rui who used to live here. Although I can influence her actions, if my consciousness is too clear, I will wake up from the dream soon.

Many times, it was because of a sudden startle that I woke up from a dream.This time I already felt that I was dreaming, so I patiently let her act on her own, hoping to get more clues.

After a while, Ke Rui arrived in the living room outside.The living room in the dream didn't have those scary bloodstains and dismembered corpses, but the layout of the room didn't show a trace of warmth, and it revealed coldness and strangeness everywhere.

Ke Rui touched the wooden tabletop with his hand, leaving a few bright paper marks on the dusty tabletop.Then he opened the door and walked out.

It's night, where is she going alone?

When I think of this, I can't help but feel my heart twitch.

Ke Rui walked in the village, because I am not used to the village of Diaojiaolou, so I can't remember the way she walked.I saw that she passed through countless buildings, and somehow came to a relatively open place.

It is said to be open, but it is actually because there are no buildings nearby, but a forest that can't see the edge.

We already knew this before we came here. Although the vicinity of Kejiazhai is a tourist area, there are still large areas of deep mountains and old forests.Not to mention foreigners, even locals, if they accidentally walk into a place that is too deep, it will be difficult to find them back.

What is even more dangerous is that in these deep mountains and old forests, because of the complicated road conditions and the abundance of rain and beasts, once people hide in, it is easy to hide their whereabouts.Since decades ago, there have always been some vicious people who hid in these woods when they were desperate.

In other words, the most dangerous thing in these woods is not all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants, nor any wild beasts, but people.

Ke Rui is a local here, it is impossible not to know this, but she just walked in.It makes me wonder, what is she doing here?

In previous dreams, I had never seen Ke Rui come to this forest, so even though I was a little scared, I still forced myself to remain calm.

Ke Rui shuttled through the woods, his clothes rustling against the leaves.In addition, the woods in the middle of the night were so quiet that not even the slightest bird chirping could be heard.

Therefore, it is even more impossible for me to distinguish the direction and time, as if I suddenly entered a field where time was frozen together with Ke Rui. No matter how I walked forward, I didn't feel that I was moving forward.

I don't know how long it took, but I finally found that Ke Rui stopped.

And when I looked around, I finally knew the source of her stop.On our right hand side, the forest was reclaimed by people to create a clearing, and in that clearing, a Taoist temple was built safely.

Although it was late at night, smoke could still be seen rising from the censer in front of the Taoist temple—I'm afraid this place is still inhabited.

The astonishment in my heart cannot be increased, even outsiders know how dangerous the jungle here is.But who would have thought that there is such a Taoist temple in this seemingly deserted forest!
Ke Rui just stopped for a short while, and then continued to walk into the Taoist temple, thinking that the reason why she came here late at night was probably the destination.

My eyes widened, and I couldn't help but think about that wandering Taoist surnamed Yuan.

He can build a formation in Kejiazhai, so there is a Taoist temple here, is it also his work?
Ke Rui has already pushed open the door of the Taoist temple, which is not locked at all, and it is estimated that no one will come if it is normal.

What caught my attention was that after Ke Rui entered the Taoist temple, the first thing I saw was a figure.

A man who looked about 50 or [-] years old was sweeping the floor inside the Taoist temple with a broom.

There was no expression on his face, and he even turned a blind eye to Ke Rui who walked in from the door, as if he could only see the ground in his eyes, and he didn't even pause for a moment.

If this scene happened in some scenic spot or a famous Taoist temple, it might not look so weird.

But this is in the deep mountains of Yunnan, and at some unknown time late at night, there is actually a man in an unknown Taoist temple with a sudden look on the floor, which is enough to make people feel chills.

And Ke Rui obviously ignored this man, and walked to the inside of the Taoist temple right away.

With her perspective, I am more and more shocked.The man who swept the floor was not the only person in the Taoist temple at all.

Or it can be said that there are more people here than any Taoist temple I have been to.

The only thing that makes people feel uncomfortable is that everyone in this Taoist temple seems to be like puppets.He didn't notice the changes around him, and when he saw Ke Rui coming, he didn't react at all.

I watched with trepidation as Ke Rui turned behind the Sanqing statue in the Taoist temple, and then turned a stone lock.

There is actually a secret passage here?
I was taken aback, but before I could catch my breath, I found an unbearable stench coming out of the secret passage.

Can't even tell what the stench was--because I haven't even seen one in my 20-year-old life.Even the stench of corpses that he had smelled when he was at the funeral with his grandfather, he had no choice but to bow down in the face of this smell.

Because of the sudden stimulation, I didn't hold back my breath, and woke up from the dream all at once.

After waking up, I found that Qin Lin hadn't slept either, and was staring at me with his big bloody eyes.

This made me almost terrified to swallow the breath I hadn't caught yet.

"You, what are you doing? Are you trying to scare me to death?" I choked out a breath suddenly, and shouted angrily at my face.

Qin Lin said, "I just wanted to see what you dreamed about."

I was taken aback when I heard that, "You said you could see what I dreamed?"

Qin Lin nodded, "However, some places are rather vague. You have never learned Taoism, and you don't even know what to write down, and you finally woke up because of the smell..."

"Stop it! Stop it!" I covered his mouth, "Aside from loathing me, would you do anything else?"
