The crooked way can also lead to heaven

The two of them were exhausted and arrived at a small town near Lihua Village near noon.

On the way, Ye Ran also exchanged some information with the old Taoist.

The old man's name was Wu Shan. He was originally a wanderer in the inland. Because he couldn't make it in his original place, he thought of going to the coastal city to have a look.

I thought there would be some opportunities to make money, but I never thought that I would be defeated everywhere. I just barely made a living by taking on free jobs all the way here.

Because he was too arrogant when he was young and leaked too many secrets, he was entangled in karma.

No matter how much money he made, he would spend it unknowingly and couldn't keep it at all.

Either he had problems himself or his apprentice had a sudden illness, and the money was thrown out in large quantities.

When it came to this topic, Wu Shan's face was full of distress.

After parking the car, the two of them found a restaurant and decided to fill their stomachs before going to Lihua Village.

After all, the destination was not too far from this town, so there was plenty of time.

"Boss, first two pounds of freshly cut mutton, and then two bottles of beer!" Wu Shan shouted at the top of his voice when he entered the restaurant.

"Okay, wait a moment, the mutton will be here soon~"

The waiter took out a pen and wrote on a small notebook, then quickly went to the kitchen.

Ye Ran chose a seat by the window, took the beer and pried it open with chopsticks, raised his head and took a big sip.

Old Wu sat down with a smile and asked curiously: "Brother Ye, I see you are so young, how did you embark on the path of evil cultivation?"

Ye Ran shrugged indifferently: "What is the difference between the righteous and evil ways?"

Everything is divided into yin and yang, which is called the harmony of yin and yang.

Since there is a righteous way in this world, then the evil way will naturally derive, and the law of all things is irreversible.

For Ye Ran, the righteous way and the evil way are irrelevant. The most important thing is to see how you can distinguish the meaning.

Old Wu couldn't answer for a while, but he had some ideas in his mind, but they were too one-sided and not easy to put on the surface.

It can be said that almost everyone has been instilled with the idea of ​​upholding justice since childhood. If you can't get rid of this deep-rooted idea, it will be difficult to communicate.

Just as the two were chatting casually, several people suddenly walked in from outside the door, wearing waterproof clothes and even military shoes.

Their eyes were as sharp as knives. As soon as they came in, they scanned the situation in the room and then chose a seat in the corner to sit down.

Ye Ran held a cigarette in his mouth and stared at them straight. Two of them had a military dagger on their waists. They were obviously not ordinary people.

"The mutton is here, please enjoy it slowly!" The waiter came over with a copper pot, and the people next to him arranged various dishes.

Ye Ran turned around, picked up the mutton and started to eat, and didn't pay attention to the group of people behind him.

However, while eating, those people began to speak in dialect.

"Hey, did you hear that? There's a place called Sazilihua Village nearby, and a God of Wealth jumped out!"

"I'm going to slap you on the wall with a blow of earwax, and I can't get you down. I told you to stop being so obsessed with ghosts and play less. You've made me a God of Wealth!"

"Really? My son!"

"Dou Si is in that village outside, and I heard that he's making a lot of noise. Shall we go check it out?"

"You're such a busybody. Why are we here? Are you a lazy idiot?"

"Oh, it's rare to tell you that people like you don't know how to dig the soil. You'll be digging holes all your life!"

"..."

Ye Ran, who originally didn't intend to care, was stunned after hearing these words.

Old Wu noticed that his expression was not right. He first tilted his head to look at the people in the corner, and then asked, "Brother Ye, do you understand what they are saying?"

Ye Ran put the mutton into his mouth, chewed it for a few bites, and then said, "In the dialect of Chongqing, they said that Lihua Village has recently been in trouble with the God of Wealth."

"Hiss, in trouble with the God of Wealth?" Old Wu was a little confused, and asked, "What else?"

Ye Ran shook his head: "There is no more to talk about. We will know the truth of this news once we get there. Let's eat first."

After an hour or so, the two patted their stomachs and left the restaurant, and rushed to Lihua Village without stopping.

Perhaps because they have stayed in coastal cities for a long time, the inland scenery looks really interesting.

Lihua Village is only about ten kilometers away from the town. It is a village backed by mountains. It is said that there are quite a few people, with a hundred households.

After arriving at the destination, as soon as I got off the car, the sky was covered by dark clouds, and thunder followed.

Old Wu looked up at the surrounding environment and couldn't help but smack his lips: "This place is surrounded by mountains on all sides, surrounding the village in the center, but this road does not run through the mountain behind, making it look like a tomb. How can anyone live in such a place?"

Ye Ran also noticed that the Feng Shui pattern of this village is quite bad, and people living in such a place are likely to suffer from many disasters and diseases.

"Let's go, let's go in and take a look."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked forward, while Old Wu looked around with a compass in his hand, shaking his head from time to time.

But not long after, the two of them realized that something was very wrong.

It should be the time when the smoke from cooking is curling, but every household has closed their doors. If they hadn't seen the crops growing vigorously on the roadside, they would have begun to doubt whether this place would be an abandoned village.

"Brother Ye, look."

Old Wu stepped forward, pulled off a yellow talisman from the nearest door, and said with a serious face: "This is an evil talisman, and I found that three sticks of incense were placed at the door of every house, and there was cinnabar on the floor. "

"Generally, when a situation like this occurs, there is only one possibility!"

Before he finished speaking, Ye Ran took over: "There are very terrifying evil spirits in this place."

Both of them fell into silence. It seemed that what they heard about the God of Wealth here was true.

But...what the hell is this God of Wealth?

I thought about knocking on the door and asking, but I knocked on more than a dozen houses and no one answered.

"Don't worry about it, let's go take a look around first. Since there are rumors that there are dragons here, there should be rivers or lakes or something nearby."

Ye Ran raised his head and glanced at the gloomy sky. He was afraid that the heavy rain would fall soon.

Before that, it is better to find out the clues about Jiao as much as possible, and then solve the accommodation problem.

The two hit it off immediately and walked through the village towards the mountains.

After all, this trip is to find dragon blood, not to come here specifically to deal with evil spirits.

Now that I am so busy, I don’t even have time to take care of it. The most important thing is that I still get nothing.

The sky was completely dark at this moment, and the pouring rain made the two of them shiver. It was too cold!

We discussed it again later and decided to wait until tomorrow to find a way to ask a villager, climb over the wall without opening the door, and then pay more money to let him lead the way.

The visibility in the mountains was extremely poor, and with the rain, the muddy road was so slippery that it made Old Wu fall down several times.

"Hey, Brother Ye, did you see this temple when we came here?"

Old Wu raised his hand to wipe the rain off his face and squinted his eyes to look to the left.

Ye Ran followed his line of sight and saw a relatively flat open space on the left. There was actually a ruined temple standing there.

Lao Wu was really cold and shivered: "How about we go there tonight to make things happen?"

He was about to go to the ruined temple, but he was held down by Ye Ran before he even took two steps.

"What's wrong?" Old Wu turned around without knowing why.

Ye Ran stared at the ruined temple and said calmly: "You know that there is evil in this place, but you still go to live in the ruined temple. Are you sick?"

"this……"

Old Wu didn't know how to answer for a while, but it was so cold right now that his body might not be able to bear it.

Ye Ran glanced at Old Wu who was trembling all over again. Don't let this guy die on the way. There is no place to live when he goes back anyway. It's not impossible to make ends meet for one night. The worst thing is to be more careful.

"Forget it, just stay here for one night."

After hearing these words, Old Wu could finally let go and quickly walked towards the ruined temple.

Ye Ran followed, but after taking only two steps, he stopped, then turned around sharply, his eyes wandering in the surrounding darkness.

From the moment I entered the mountain, I felt like there were eyes following me behind me, but I never discovered what they were.

Since I feel this way, it means that there is definitely something behind me.

What on earth is...
