I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

When Gu Chaoxi woke up the next day, Pei Yan was no longer in the room.

She sat up and was dazed for a while before she got out of bed and started washing.

"You bad boy! I haven't eaten instant noodles for 800 years, and you actually made me break my vow!"

Thinking of the bowl of spicy beef noodles last night, she became more and more irritable. She thought that she had never eaten such bad food when she was keeping vigil at the funeral home.

When I looked up after washing my face, I saw another face in the mirror.

She was startled and turned to glare at Pei Yan who was leaning against the door, and he was looking at her with a smile.

"What are you doing?" She crossed her arms subconsciously. Is this person walking without making any sound?

She shook the buns and soy milk in her arms, and the other person glanced at her unhappily: "Remember to keep your voice down when you say bad things about others."

Being ruthlessly exposed, Gu Chaoxi touched his nose in embarrassment.

It was originally his fault.

She shook her head, wiped her face with a towel, and hurried to her breakfast.

Pei Yan seemed to have brought it back specially for her. He was sitting alone on the bed, looking at his phone, and no one knew what he was studying.

She glanced at the time. It was past ten o'clock.

Maybe I slept too late last night.

While chewing the buns, she asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Some rumors about Long'an County's past."

"Is there any connection?" She was a little confused.

Perhaps because he was in a better mood, Pei Yan explained to her patiently this time.

"Based on experience, every plane of the other world is more or less related to a location. I searched for information afterwards and found that the plane world basically comes from a local legend."

"So you think it's the same in Long'an County?"

"I said, it's basically from, but not all of it."

Pei Yan looked up at her, and then said, "It's not wrong to make preparations in advance, just in case."

Nodding in agreement, Gu Chaoxi stuffed the last bite of the bun into his mouth.

"Then I'll go out and look around to see if there are any clues."

After she had eaten and drunk her fill, she stood up and patted her round belly, feeling very comfortable and not nervous at all.

"I don't think you need to go."

"What do you mean?" She stood and looked at Pei Yan, tilting her head slightly.

The man smiled at her and stretched his arms to stretch his muscles.

"I have already visited all the places regarding the explosion, but I don't have any clues."

Gu Chaoxi lowered his eyes. Pei Yan was also investigating this matter. Was it because there were the same doubts about his mother's matter as Gu Chenyang's?

But it is never good to poke someone's wounds, so she just nodded and said "hmm".

Perhaps sensing that she was becoming depressed, Pei Yan stood up and handed the phone to her.

"Want to go take a look here?"

On the phone was an interesting story that was searched out. It was published two years ago and contained a group of photos of a mountain temple.

The mountain temple looked quite old, probably quite a few years old. It was covered with thick dust and didn't look like anything special.

But there is a line of comments below the article.

"Rumor has it that anyone who doesn't listen to the advice of the Mountain Goddess will go to hell."

"It's right here. I asked, and the people here said that there is indeed an abandoned mountain temple to the east."

He took back his phone and tapped the screen twice with his index finger.

Gu Chaoxi was distracted for a moment, then quickly nodded in agreement.

It's always a good idea to follow someone with experience.

As soon as the two of them went downstairs, they saw a long-haired beauty in a motorcycle suit standing outside the B&B.

The woman's eyes revealed a heroic spirit. When her gaze fell on Gu Zhaoxi, she laughed out loud: "No wonder Pei Yan ignored me this time, it turns out that you brought a newbie with you?"

She was slightly startled and turned her head to look at Pei Yan. The man's expression revealed a hint of barely perceptible disdain and he leaned towards her.

"This woman's name is Qin Wei, you can ignore her."

"Ah?" She was confused and her eyes moved back and forth between the two of them. Then Qin Wei rushed over and hugged her neck.

The man seemed to be very familiar with her and immediately began to talk to her incessantly.

"What's your name, little cutie? Don't follow Pei Yan, that blockhead. Follow me. I can still take you flying!"

Uh, Gu Chaoxi expressed that he was very frightened.

She stretched out her hand to pinch Qin Wei's wrist, bent down to break free, and ran directly to the other side of Pei Yan to hide: "That's not necessary, I think it's good to follow Pei Yan."

"Tsk, that's because you don't know how good I am!" Qin Wei pouted, obviously not convinced.

"Are you going to the mountain temple too?" Pei Yan asked.

Qin Wei immediately straightened up and stopped making trouble with her. His expression was a little serious: "I have read some rumors about the Mountain God Temple. It seems that it is not an orthodox earthly immortal. In the early days of its establishment, people at that time had to ask the Mountain Goddess for her opinions on funerals and weddings. Those who did not listen to her advice would die an untimely death."

"You know quite a lot."

"That's right, you don't even see what I do!" Qin Wei puffed out his chest.

Gu Chaoxi glanced at Qin Wei, then his gaze returned to Pei Yan. He always felt that the two of them were a pair of bickering lovers.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the east side of Longan County.

A long path, overgrown with weeds as no one had walked on it for a long time.

At the end of the road, you can see a dilapidated yellow temple.

This mountain temple is not big. In the square courtyard, apart from the side halls on both sides, there is the main hall facing the main hall. Standing at the door, you can take in the whole temple at a glance.

In the middle of the courtyard, there stands a tall ginkgo tree, which is now covered with bright yellow leaves.

Qin Wei was the first to step in, and her feet made a slight rustling sound as they stepped on the ginkgo leaves.

Seeing Pei Yan also walked in, Gu Chaoxi followed.

He looked around and walked towards the main hall.

The door of the main hall had long been dilapidated and hung weakly on the door frame. It seemed that if any force was applied, it would collapse in the next moment.

On the altar, a goddess statue was sitting cross-legged in a lotus flower, with a pupil dotted in each of her white eyes with black lines, looking down at her condescendingly.

Her eyes moved downward. The goddess statue was wearing a flowing red and blue gauze skirt and holding a huge jade ruyi in her arms.

What Qin Wei said was right, he indeed didn't look like an orthodox earthly immortal.

The three cushions in front of him had long been damaged, and there were cobwebs on their gray surfaces.

Gu Chaoxi walked around the altar and went behind the goddess statue.

Behind the altar, there are some miscellaneous utensils, which should have been used for worship in the early years. They look like high-quality bronze vessels.

She picked up one and looked around. There seemed to be some words engraved on the bottom. After careful identification, she could barely make out that it said "Longan Suqi".

"What are you looking at, little cutie?"

She didn't know when Qin Wei walked in. She didn't even notice her and was startled by her.

"Just wondering who this is referring to."
