The years of reselling the haunted house

We used a half-person-high grass as a cover, squatting down to observe the movement in front of us.

Those three people probably stood there for some time, as if they were waiting for something.

Chapter 389

I shifted my gaze to the little temple they were staring at.

The small temple is very small, only a single temple.It also looks dilapidated and looks like it could collapse at any moment.But although the temple is not big, it looks daunting.

It seems that there should be someone in the temple, and the three standing people didn't dare to make any mistakes at all, and stood there respectfully.

I looked at Lao Xiao, who nodded slightly at me.Obviously this small temple is what he called the mother-in-law temple.Hearing what he said was miraculous, even using the Nantian Gate of Tiangong as a metaphor, I didn't expect it to be such an inconspicuous small temple.

But judging from what Lao Xiao meant, he probably didn't know what those two people were doing standing there. We can only wait and see what happens, and wait until we look down.

At this time, the sky has gradually darkened, and the setting sun in the sky has completely fallen.Only a hint of afterglow is revealed, so that our sight will not be completely affected.

At this moment, a sound suddenly came from the direction of the small temple.

We cheered up and hurriedly looked towards the small temple.I saw that the originally closed temple door was half opened, and a thin, withered arm stretched out. The arm was slender, and seemed to be a bit longer than ordinary people's arms. There was almost no extra flesh on it, just skin and bones. .

That arm hung a lighted lantern above the temple gate, and the dim yellow candlelight in the lantern reflected the front of the small temple in a bleak way.

As soon as the lantern was hung, the thin arm was drawn back again, and the temple door closed again with a bang.

The three people standing in front of the temple finally moved. They bowed towards the temple gate and shouted loudly: "The goddess is mighty and shining, please ask the mother-in-law to enter the mountain..."

The three people shouted with full of air, and the shouts shook the four directions.It seems that they are shouting at the people in the temple, wanting to enter the mountain.But there was no response from the door.

After a few minutes, the three shouted again.There was still no movement inside.

They yelled tirelessly for the third time, and finally the temple door opened half again with a bang.

An old woman with disheveled silver hair and a stooped figure, leaning on a cane, walked out slowly from inside.

Judging from the thin figure of the old woman, the one who hung the lantern just now should be her, whom those two people called Granny Tu.

Granny Tu came out of the temple, pointed the road ahead with her crutches, swayed three times, and staggered towards the three people who were about to enter the mountain.

I looked at Granny Tu's walking posture, as if there was something wrong with her eyes.When she got close to those three people, she turned around, and sure enough, I saw a white light flash in her eye sockets, but she couldn't see any black eyeballs, so she must be blind.

Granny Tu walked around the three people twice, but didn't see any special movements, so she waved the crutch in her hand.

As if the three people were granted amnesty, they hurriedly bowed to the mother-in-law, crossed the temple of the mother-in-law, and walked towards the back of the temple.

Granny Tu herself leaned on a cane and returned to her own temple.The temple door slammed shut again.

The surroundings fell into silence again, only the lanterns hanging above the temple gate shone brightly.

Fortunately, it is relatively empty here, and the moonlight from the sky pours down without any cover, illuminating the front of the temple quite brightly.

We squatted in the grass, and Lao Xiao lowered his voice and said: "See? If you want to enter the mountain, go to the Goddess Village, this is the only way. So this mother-in-law temple is responsible for verifying your integrity. People who are not from the Goddess Village or who are hired by the Goddess Village will be found immediately once they pass the Mother-in-law Temple, not to mention humans, even animals, it is very difficult to get past."

Coincidentally, before Lao Xiao finished speaking, a gray hare rushed out from the grass next to us.The rabbit was fat and strong, and moved very quickly. After sprinting out of the grass, it ran towards the mountain behind the mother-in-law's temple.

All three of us were fascinated by this sudden event, and stared closely at the figure of the hare.

The hare crossed the mother-in-law temple and was just about to run into the deep mountain, when its body trembled suddenly and fell to the ground suddenly, its limbs twitched, and it didn't move for a while.

We all looked at each other in blank dismay, shocked.

It seems that the blind mother-in-law looks very weak, but there are indeed some means to be able to guard her in the mother-in-law temple.It's not unreasonable to see that the three strong men are respectful and fearful towards Granny Tu.

Old Xiao said in a low voice: "Let's go to the Goddess Village. If we don't have an identity, we may not be able to hide it. We also have to hurry up and go into the mountain and try to catch the three people who advanced into the mountain. Then we will replace them and replace them in the Goddess Village. It’s good to act.”

We all think that Lao Xiao's strategy is reliable, but how to get past Granny Tu has become the biggest problem.

The third uncle asked Lao Xiao: "Didn't you say that there is a way to get in?"

Old Xiao nodded, took off his backpack, found three sets of clothes from inside, and urged: "We each wear one set of these clothes. If everything goes well, we should be able to hide it from Granny Tu's eyes. "

I wryly smiled and said, "Nonsense, didn't you see that? That old lady is blind, she definitely doesn't rely on her eyes to judge, it's useless to hide it from her eyes."

Old Xiao waved his hand: "That's what I said. I mean, wearing this dress, you should be able to hide the truth from Granny Tu. She is blind, which is even better. At least she can't see that we are counterfeit."

Wearing this clothes, can you sneak into the Goddess Village?

My third uncle and I involuntarily picked up the clothes that Lao Xiao had given us and looked at them carefully.

I held the dress in my hand, and the first feeling was that it was very light.

I didn't use much force, and the clothes were blown by the wind, and they were blown up.

Lao Xiao quickly reminded us: "Hold on to the clothes tightly, don't blow them away. I managed to save these three sets of clothes."

I grabbed the clothes tightly and observed carefully, the clothes were whitish in color and the material was very thin.It's an exaggeration to say it's as thin as a cicada's wings, but the material should be very special, thinner than any clothes I've ever worn.It is said that it is clothes, but in fact it has been simply cut, with sleeves and open plackets, and the trousers are only sewn with two trouser legs, and the handwork is extremely rough.

When I touched the material, it felt a little familiar to my hand.I recalled it for a while, and asked Old Xiao: "Uncle Xiao, are these clothes... made of those things in the cave?"

I remembered that when I fell into the cellar of the freight yard, I landed on a pile of soft things, so I didn't get hurt.The feel of those things is not too different from this clothes.That's why I asked this question.

Chapter 390 Human Leather Clothes

Old Xiao glanced at me and nodded: "That's right, I didn't expect your eyes to be very poisonous. That woman's body often sheds some leather flakes, which is also a process of human shedding. The clothes are indeed made from there. It is stitched together from the cortex that grew and fell off Duo Nu's body."

"Ah?" I almost threw away the clothes when I heard this: "This...isn't this just human skin?"

The third uncle glared at me and motioned me to keep my voice down.

I hurriedly shut my mouth, but I still had some resistance to the clothes in my hand.

The third uncle said in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, this is different from human skin. The shed skin is a kind of attachment to the body. Simply put, you won't feel it when you prick the shed skin with a needle. It hurts. But when you pierce the skin, it will hurt. So strictly speaking, this is not human skin. You can wear it without worry.”

Lao Xiao nodded with satisfaction: "Master Li is still well-informed. That's the thing. This kind of skin that falls off from Duo Nu's body can hide the anger on our body. I made clothes. If you wear it on your body, You should be able to fool Granny Tu."

Hearing what Lao Xiao said, even though I still don't quite accept the human skin clothes, in order to successfully sneak in, I had to wear the clothes on my body according to Lao Xiao's request.

The clothes had to be worn on the innermost side, so they had to fit closely to one's skin.

The three of us are like idiots. In the weather of more than 20 degrees below zero, we took off all our clothes and were frozen like white striped chickens in the freezer.

We took off our clothes, and hurriedly put on each of the three sets of clothes.

As the clothes were put on, the cold feeling was not so obvious.This dress actually has a good thermal effect.And as soon as that layer of cortex came into contact with his own skin, it adhered tightly to it.There is a thin layer of cortex attached to the skin, and there is no foreign body sensation at all.

When we put on the outer clothes again, we feel warm on our bodies, not to mention how comfortable it is in this winter.

After we finished dressing, the third uncle was still a little worried, so he asked Lao Xiao: "Is your method reliable? Have you tried it?"

Old Xiao curled his lips and stretched out a finger: "It's also the first time I use it. Whether it's reliable or not, only God knows."

I grinned and glanced at Third Uncle, feeling that today's incident came a little suddenly.That mother-in-law doesn't look simple, can we hide it from her with our simple tricks?

But at this moment, we can only take a risk, otherwise we can't think of a better way.

Seeing that we were ready, Old Xiao patted the coyote on the head: "Go back and find your master."

The dog was very human, and he spread his legs and ran down the way he came.The dog has already done its job, and we really don't need to take it with us.Otherwise, it is easier to expose the target.

Lao Xiao waved his hand, led us out of the grass, and walked towards the front of the mother-in-law temple.

I know that this is the end of the matter, no matter how worried it is, it will not help, so I might as well give it a go.

So the three of us strode over, stood where the three people who had just entered had stood, and stared at the mother-in-law temple.

It was a little far away from this mother-in-law temple just now, and I didn't see it too clearly.Now we are only seven or eight meters away from the mother-in-law temple, and I can see the temple clearly.

Above the temple, there is a plaque with four words crookedly written: Temple of Earth.

It turned out that this was the most common earth temple, and it was actually called the mother-in-law temple.Normally, it should be the Lord of the Land and the Granny of the Land that are enshrined in it.Thinking of the old woman in it being called the land granny, it seems that she regards herself as the land granny here.

You must know that although the land master and the land grandmother are only the smallest gods in the god world, they are still in the position of gods after all, and they have to be worshiped by incense and fire from all over the world.For a mortal to think of herself as the grandma of the land, this is obviously conceited to a certain extent.

We stood up and nodded to each other.

Old Xiao imitated the three people just now, and shouted loudly towards the temple: "The goddess is mighty, shining brightly, please ask the mother-in-law to enter the mountain..."

Not to mention, Lao Xiao really looks like him.This tone, this tone, is almost the same as what they shouted just now.

After stopping for a while, there was no movement at the temple gate.

Lao Xiao yelled three more times in the same tone, and finally I heard the door of the temple slam, and the old lady showed her figure.

I know that the toughest test is coming, and if we pretend to fail, we will probably die.On that earth granny, it can give people an invisible deterrent force, as if they have no chance of winning if they are enemies with her.

The same as last time, Granny Tu came out of the temple tremblingly, using the crutches to explore the way, and came towards us bit by bit.

I stared at Granny Tu's eyes, her eye sockets were full of white eyeballs, but she emitted a frightening light, which was very scary to watch.It's hard to look directly at.

The mother-in-law's eyes should be unable to see, but her eyes kept staring at us, as if she could find something from us.

My heart was in my throat, and I was ready for everything.Once our identities are revealed, we must flee immediately.If we don't cross the mother-in-law temple, maybe she won't make things difficult for us.

It was only a few steps away, and Granny Tu walked for 5 minutes.

We didn't dare to make any moves, we just waited for Granny Tu to walk up to us slowly.

Granny Tu's body is so thin that she is almost a skeleton covered with a layer of skin.

When she got in front of us, Granny Tu suddenly sniffed, put her face close to our body, and began to sniff carefully.

At the beginning, I thought it was Granny Tu who discovered something.It was only later that I realized that Granny Tu's eyes were not working well, so she used her nose to judge our identities.

Granny Tu walked around the three of us a few times, sniffing non-stop.

My heart was also beating wildly, for fear that any mistakes we had made would be spotted by the local mother-in-law.

I could even hear my own heart beating, which made me panic.The mother-in-law's eyes are not good, but her ears must be very good. My heart is beating so hard, will she hear me?

The more anxious I was, the faster my heart beat, and even my own body began to shake, and I couldn't control myself.

Sure enough, what are you afraid of...

Granny Tu circled around us a few times, and when she came in front of me, she stopped suddenly.

My heart skipped a beat, and I almost turned around and ran away.

The third uncle beside me stretched out his hand and held my hand, beckoning me to calm down first.

Old Xiao also turned his head slightly, looking at the situation on my side.

I tried to control myself and try to calm down.

Chapter 391 Third Party Forces

Granny Tu stood in front of me. Because she was relatively short, she raised her head to look at me.Two white and faint eyes stared at me firmly.

The white eyeballs are not bright at all, and they must not be able to see anything.But just these two eyes stared at me with hairs all over my body.Under these eyes, it was as if she could see through everything.

The third uncle held my hand and added strength. I knew he was giving me a hint, telling me to hold on.

I nodded slightly, gritted my teeth, and looked into Granny Tu's eyes.

This kind of staring is also a kind of contest.I hope to use this method to convey a message to the mother-in-law, that is, we are indeed from the Goddess Village, and we are not fakes.

My mother-in-law and I looked at each other for 3 minutes, and I swear that these minutes were definitely the most difficult 3 minutes in my life.Fortunately, after 3 minutes, the mother-in-law looked back, walked around us twice, waved the crutch in her hand, and walked tremblingly into the temple.

At the same time, we breathed a sigh of relief, which means that we have successfully passed the body examination of the local mother-in-law, and we can enter the mountain to reach the Goddess Village.

We also bowed to the mother-in-law, and then prepared to go around the temple of the mother-in-law and run towards the mountains.

I was the last of the three of us in line, and when I passed by the mother-in-law temple, the mother-in-law just walked back to the door.

I subconsciously glanced at the entrance of the temple, only to see Granny Tu turn her head to look at me.

Our eyes met again.

I was shocked, this is not in line with what we expected.Why is she following me?If the mother-in-law finds out our weakness, then she shouldn't let us go, right?

But I didn't have time to think about it, the old Xiao and the third uncle in front had already gone far away.

I can only cross the mother-in-law temple and follow closely behind them.

Since I wasn't sure, I didn't tell them what I finally found out.In any case, we have passed the barrier of the mother-in-law temple.

I caught up with Lao Xiao and the third uncle. Lao Xiao told us that we had passed the mother-in-law temple, and we had to walk a few miles on the mountain road to reach the Goddess Village.If we want to impersonate, we can only do it on this road and try to clean up those three people.

We don't know if we can catch up with the three of them. If they enter the Goddess Village before us, it will be very difficult for us to get in again.And relying on the three of us, the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled, the chances of winning against those three strong men are not great.

But we can only take a risk and try, this time we have no scruples and chase down that mountain road.

The moonlight shines on this long and narrow mountain road, with steep cliffs on both sides of the mountain road.There are trees all over the cliffs, and the wind blows into the forest, making a rustling sound.The leaves rustled and the branches swayed in the wind. At first glance, it looked like countless ghosts.
