Quick Wear: Pampering Your Lover

Chapter 194: Nameless Cannon Fodder in a World Overrun by Monsters (19)

After the driver's narration, everyone got more specific information.

Not long ago, another person disappeared in Liangyu Town. This person was the 24th missing person. It was said that he disappeared in the Temple of the Rain God. His wife was so scared that she fainted. After waking up, she became a little mentally ill and muttered strange words such as "The Rain God has appeared" and "Retribution".

Several people looked at each other, Qi Qing frowned, took out his mobile phone and sent a message in the group.

[Yang Yuzhen's confrontation team]

Qi Qing: There is something strange about the Rain Temple. We should split into two groups. I am not good at dealing with people, so it is more appropriate for me to go and explore the Rain Temple.

Zhong Yumi: Zhenzhen and I went to the Zhang family where the 24th missing person case occurred.

Ye San: I’m with Brother Zhong!

Yu Waner:?

Mingzhen: I'm going to the Rain God Temple, and you two go to Zhang Jinsheng's house. Yu Wan'er, you can go either way.

Yu Waner: Then I will follow Ye San!

She finally understood that she didn't dare to mess with anyone else and could only choose Ye San, Young Master Zhong's lackey.

After arriving at the center of Liangyu Town, the five people got off the bus.

The center of the town is a square, and in the center of the square is a tall flagpole, but it is covered with rust, and it can be seen that the national flag has not been raised for a long time.

Liangyu Town is not big. After checking the map, I found that Zhang's family and the Rain God Temple are not far away. The Rain God Temple is 3.6 kilometers away from here, and Zhang's family is 2 kilometers away from here.

"Let's walk."

Mingzhen ignored Zhong Yumi's sad eyes, took the lead in controlling the wind under his feet, and quickly headed towards the destination, with Qi Qing following closely behind.

Zhong Yumi smoothed back the loose hair on her forehead, narrowing her long, narrow black eyes sharply. "Let's go, business is more important."

There were very few people passing by on the road, and they all looked hurried. They were very wary when they saw Mingzhen and Qi Qing approaching, which was completely inconsistent with the hospitality described in the information.

The two did not come forward to talk, but continued to go to the Rain Temple.

The Rain God Temple is located at the foot of a mountain in the suburbs. When they arrived, Mingzhen and Qi Qing were a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, the Rain God Temple was not as dilapidated and lonely as I had imagined, but had red walls, yellow tiles, and flying eaves, which made it look simple and solemn.

The gilded censer was filled with the faint aroma of incense. The ancient locust tree on the side was tall and towering, and its messy and tangled roots were like giant snakes, lying in front of the temple, looking strange and eerie.

Legend has it that the Rain Goddess was a very kind mortal in her lifetime. During a severe drought, she offered her body, flesh, blood, and ten lifetimes of merit as a sacrifice to the heavens. After her death, she ascended to heaven and became the Rain God, bringing rain and dew to the people. This tree was planted by the Rain Goddess herself before she ascended to heaven. Therefore, this tree has stood in front of the Rain God Temple for hundreds of years without being cut down.

Liangyu Town is mainly engaged in farming, so everyone here believes in the Goddess of Rain and hopes for good weather and good harvests.

The townspeople considered this place sacred, but Qi Qing frowned slightly.

This place is overflowing with evil spirits and resentment, and there is no sign of peace and holiness at all. Just standing at the door, I feel a sense of depression and discomfort in my heart.

Mingzhen felt the same way. She even felt a little irritated and impatient, and even remembered the bloody remains of her parents and brother not long ago.

But at that time, she did not feel regret or fear, but only relaxation and joy, and those scenes could not scare her at all.

Mingzhen frowned, realizing something was wrong, and suddenly woke up. She sat up from the ground and found that she was no longer at the entrance of the Rain Temple. She was surrounded by dim earth walls and the roots of a locust tree were entangled beneath her.

Qi Qing was lying beside her, not yet awake.

Mingzhen leaned over to take a look, and when he saw his chest rising and falling, he reached out and pushed him, "Qiqing, Ah Qing, wake up!"

Qi Qing frowned, as if unwilling to wake up, but soon he woke up when Mingzhen called him again.

He turned around and saw Mingzhen with a serious face, then he came to his senses and looked around, but his ears were red and his eyes avoided Mingzhen slightly when he met his.

Not knowing what he had just seen, Mingzhen thought so and asked directly, "We lost consciousness as soon as we entered the Rain Temple. This seems to be the underground of the Rain Temple. This place seems to be able to awaken people's inner desires... What did you see just now?"

"I..." He opened his mouth, but seemed to be having trouble speaking. "Nothing, but I saw the 'Rain Goddess'. She was veiled, so I couldn't see her true appearance. She also said she could fulfill my wish..."

A wish? So her wish was for those three people to die... but it had already come true. Her current wish was to become stronger, strong enough to control her own destiny.

Mingzhen looked over and asked, "Did you make a wish to her?"

In this situation, making a wish will inevitably put you in danger.

"No." Qi Qing shook his head, suppressing his surging emotions and calming down again. "Those illusions... were of poor quality. When the 'Rain Goddess' bewitched me, I swung my sword at her, and she screamed and vanished. I don't know if the attack in the dream could have harmed him."

The two looked at each other, as if they both understood something. Mingzhen curled his lips and said, "Aqing, I know the exit. Come with me."

As soon as she woke up, she activated her "Eavesdropping" ability and could clearly hear the sounds of insects crawling around her, as well as the breeze blowing through the exit.

The two walked slowly. Qi Qing took Mingzhen's wrist and, noticing her gaze, said calmly, "To prevent any accidents between you and me, it's better to hold on."

Mingzhen didn't say anything. He turned his wrist and took his slender fingers, slowly shaking hands. The two of them walked to the end together and lifted the sparse straw and wooden boards above their heads.

Qi Qing flew up first, and when Mingzhen pulled his hand and jumped up, he turned around and met four pairs of staring eyes.

Mingzhen: ...

What a coincidence?

Mingzhen looked at Zhong Yumi, Ye San, and Yu Waner in front of him and was about to say something when the woman next to him suddenly screamed and shouted, "Impossible! How could someone come back from that place?!"

Zhong Yumi reacted instantly and asked, "What does Aunt Zhang mean?!"

Aunt Zhang lost her previous calmness and ruthlessness. She fell to the ground in a daze, muttering, "I didn't mean to hurt you, husband... It's not my fault, why did you follow me?"

Before everyone wanted to ask more questions, Aunt Zhang suddenly vomited blood and fainted.

......

The empty house was hung with white cloth, and a coffin was placed in the main hall. A breeze blew by, and the still warm wind in the summer evening blew, and the white cloth fluttered with it, but when it blew on people, they felt a coolness.

Aunt Zhang had been helped into the room. The five people sat together in the courtyard and exchanged the information they had obtained.

It turned out that before she and Qi Qing arrived, Aunt Zhang was extremely indifferent to the arrival of the people from the Demon-Slaying Camp, and one could even feel her rejection. When they asked her about her husband Zhang Jinsheng, she directly wanted to drive them out and refused to say anything.

Finally, under the guidance of several people, she finally spoke a few words.
