Chapter 29 Down the Mountain

The sudden change made me feel even more frightened.

At this moment, something dirty grabbed my ankle and kept pulling me out of the altar table.

I was so frightened that I tried my best to resist.

It seems safer to hide under the altar table.

But if he was dragged out, not to mention the female ghost guarding outside the temple.

Whether I can leave the City God's Temple safely may be unknown.

Although, I'm not sure.

The old man in black cloth shoes said that I was "buying longevity". What does "cheating longevity" mean?

But obviously, I angered the other party.

I kicked my feet hard and kept resisting.

"Go away, go away..."

I shouted and struggled desperately.

But the opponent's strength was too great, and my resistance seemed feeble.

The body was still bit by bit and was pulled out from under the altar table.

In the blink of an eye, the entire thigh was pulled out from under the altar table.

Only half of his body was left, still inside the altar table.

I can feel it, except for the hand grabbing my ankle.

There were other cold hands next to me, touching my legs...

Both hands scratched traces on the ground.

The whole person was terrified to the extreme.

Just when I was about to despair, I suddenly remembered.

When I went up the mountain tonight, the old lady fox gave me half of a fox nail.

She said, if I put that thing in my mouth.

When selling eggs, those things won't touch me.

Now think about it, "those things" that the old lady fox mentioned are the ghosts in this temple.

At that time, I was very scared of the old lady fox and was in a hurry.

Later, I focused on selling rice and dealing with the dirty things outside, and I actually forgot about this matter.

When I suddenly remembered it at this moment, it was like seeing hope and grabbing a life-saving straw.

It was too late to think about anything more.

He retracted his hand and quickly took out half of the fox nail from his pocket.

On the spot, I put the half of the nail in my mouth.

At this moment, most of his body had been pulled out from under the altar table.

Only one shoulder and head are left, which have not been pulled out.

In the temple, strange laughter of "giggle" kept ringing out.

Faintly, there are dirty things saying the word "eat".

But, just after I took the fox nail in my mouth.

Something strange happened.

The hand that grabbed me was as strong as a pair of cold pliers.

At this moment, it was like an electric shock, and it suddenly bounced away from my ankle.

The hands that were touching me all stopped.

I felt no one pulling me, so I hurriedly crawled under the altar table.

I was so frightened that I broke into a cold sweat and trembled all over.

At this moment, there is a fox paw in his mouth.

He was breathing heavily and looked particularly embarrassed.

I don't know what's going on outside.

But now, I'm just crouching inside the altar table, leaning against the base of the statue.

The endless feeling of depression made me feel like I was going crazy.

However, there was a voice in my heart telling me.

Persevere, persevere, live, must live...

If I die, there will be no one to take care of my grandma.

This may be my only motivation.

At this time, most of the feet surrounding the altar table disappeared after a few coughs and snorts.

In the temple, the dead silence returned to before.

I know clearly that those dirty things didn't leave, they just stopped talking.

If I spit out fox paws, those dirty things will definitely come to scratch my feet.

Therefore, I always hold the half-parted paw given to me by the old lady fox.

Deep down in my heart, I felt grateful to the old lady fox.

If it weren't for this half of the claw, he might really be gone.

For the rest of the time, there was no sound in the temple.

The coughing sounds disappeared, and no human feet were seen walking outside.

I suffered, wasting my time bit by bit, and was wary of my surroundings.

Finally, I saw the hour hand point to six o'clock, and a trace of excitement and joy finally flashed in my bloodshot eyes.

But I didn't dare to rush out immediately.

Instead, he suffered for five more minutes, and after repeatedly making sure that it was really safe outside, he got out from under the altar table.

The temple was still in the same mess as when it came.

There is nothing but domestic garbage.

But I know that this place is full of dirty things.

I didn't want to stay any longer, so I picked up the black paper bowl on the ground and found that there were sections of dark, grass-root-like things inside.

No more, no less, exactly ten.

I swallowed and hurriedly ran outside the temple.

Just left the Chenghuang Temple.

There was a "clang" sound.

The big old wooden door behind was closed immediately.

The things inside were not welcoming to me at all.

But I don't want to stay any longer.

When I was full of energy, I ran down the mountain.

I just want to leave Longgang Mountain as soon as possible and return to Wanfutang.

The sky outside has begun to get brighter, and the air is very fresh.

I just feel like I've been reborn.

Experiencing the weird and terrifying scenes last night was my own misfortune, but it was also my own luck.

At least, they all got through it.

Now I have obtained the old money and medicine, and passed Master Gu's entrance test.

As long as Master Gu helps me.

His life should have been saved.

When I came to the bottom of the mountain, I started walking towards the city.

This place is in the middle of nowhere, so it's really hard to find a car.

After walking for half an hour, I luckily met a taxi on the side of the road.

After telling the driver my address, I leaned tiredly on my seat and felt relaxed.

My body suddenly relaxed and I felt very sleepy.

He leaned on the seat and fell asleep quickly.

When I opened my eyes again, I had already reached the place.

"Dude, it's here! Seventy dollars."

The driver pushed me.

I opened my eyes in confusion and found Wanfu Hall next to me.

"okay!"

I responded subconsciously.

Then he reached into his pocket to get the money, and there happened to be a fifty yuan change, plus another twenty yuan in change from the man in the van last night.

I grabbed it in my hand, glanced at it, and handed it over.

Open the door and get out of the car.

But just as I was about to move my feet, the taxi driver grabbed my left hand.

I was confused, I gave you the money, why weren’t you allowed to get off the bus?

Before I could speak, the driver stared at me fiercely.

He said angrily:

"Are you kidding me? Are you paying me with hell coins?"
