Chapter 121 Let's keep a low profile during this time
When I came to the Chenghuang Temple, I was stunned when I saw the scene in front of me!
A cordon was put up around the City God's Temple, and no one was allowed to come near. There was the roar of machines inside the City God's Temple, and no one knew what was going on.
I went to a stall selling tofu puffs not far away and bought a bowl of tofu puffs and a few fried cakes. While eating, I asked what was going on at the Chenghuang Temple.
The lady selling tofu puffs shook her head and sighed and said: "Two nights ago, for some reason, there was a fire in the City God's Temple. I heard it was caused by thunder in the middle of the night, but those of us who live nearby didn't hear any thunder at night! That day
The City God's Temple was sealed off at night, and many officials came over in the past two days. I heard that they were going to reshape the statue of the City God..."
Listening to this lady's explanation, my mood suddenly became strange.
The City God's Temple was struck by lightning and caught fire?
What nonsense?
If it were an ordinary temple or Taoist temple, something like this might happen, but there really is a City God's Yinsi in this Temple of the City God. How could it be struck by lightning and catch fire?
There must be other reasons!
When I think about this, I can't help but think of a certain scene in my dream.
At that time, the City God took the langhao pen from the middle-aged Confucian scholar and wrote on a certain file. At that time, the middle-aged Confucian scholar had a look of eagerness and horror on his face. It seemed that the City God did something that shocked him.
Something that is hard to accept.
The City God later told me that the weird shroud saved my life, and the City God did it as a favor...
Could it be that it was because of that incident that the City God's Temple suffered disaster?
I did not go directly into the City God's Temple. After all, there were countless staff in the City God's Temple at this time. Even if I went in at this time, I might not be able to see the City God.
I waited here until dusk, when I saw many staff members walking out of the gate of the Chenghuang Temple, and also saw a few old men in Taoist robes mixed in among the staff members, and I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows slightly.
Why do people from the Taoist sect come to the Chenghuang Temple to join in the fun?
As night falls, the lanterns come on.
When the street became a little deserted, I flashed my figure, jumped directly onto the outer wall of the City God's Temple, and jumped directly into the City God's Temple.
Although the Yin Qi still lingers in the Chenghuang Temple today, it feels weaker than when I came here a few days ago.
Among the dead City God's Temple, there is still a light on, which is the side of the City God's Temple.
The place in front of the City God's Hall was in a mess, with several small excavators piled up, as well as some scaffolding and the like, which looked very messy.
Many deep holes have been dug into the ground in front of the main hall. The front door of the main hall is somewhat dilapidated. After some repairs, the pungent smell of paint lingers in this area.
There is really something wrong with the City God’s Temple!
But what are the big pits dug in front of the City God's Temple used for?
Just when I was doubting, a light cough interrupted my guess.
A figure walked out of the dark City God's Hall, it was the old man wearing a red armband.
I directly raised my hand and saluted the old man, and said softly: "I have taken the liberty of visiting you, and please forgive me..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the old man waving his hand. The old man looked calm and said, "What happened when you came over so late at night? Is there any trouble that is difficult to solve?"
Hearing this, I hurriedly briefly talked about what happened in Yanghe Community a few days ago, and asked about the whereabouts of the strange shroud.
After listening to what I said, the old man looked at me with strange eyes, until he saw that I felt a little scared in my heart, and then he said quietly: "Your heart was pierced and crushed, but you are alive and well now, you just
Don’t you think there’s anything strange?”
I'm asking about the whereabouts of that weird shroud, and your answer is wrong...
Wait a moment!
My eyes widened suddenly, my heart almost stopped as I thought of a possibility, and I looked at the old man in disbelief.
Could it be that that weird shroud got into my body...
"Okay, if you have nothing to do, get out of here!"
The old man seemed to have seen through what I was thinking, and waved his hand and said: "I gave you a favor before, but I didn't expect the backlash would be so big. It almost destroyed the City God's Temple, and the incense offerings that had been made for decades were scattered in one day.
It’s all gone, and I don’t know when it will be completed..."
His words confirmed my other guess that the incident in the City God's Temple was indeed related to me.
Before I could ask any more questions, the old man walked directly into the City God's Hall and disappeared in an instant.
My face looked strange, and I was inexplicably shocked. I couldn't help but cover my heart, and strange emotions spread in my heart.
How could that weird shroud be...
After leaving the Chenghuang Temple, I walked aimlessly, feeling confused.
Unknowingly, I walked to the entertainment street.
Feeling a little irritated and confused, I walked directly into the Yeqi Bar at the end of the street. There were already many customers in the bar, and the bar was full.
I came to the bar, pulled aside a guy with half of his face that was charred and hideous, and said to the bartender who was making drinks: "Third brother, have a glass of wine, a stronger one!"
The guy I pulled aside had a ferocious glare on his face at first. When he saw clearly that it was me, he hurriedly wiped the high chair and invited me to sit down. Then he ran to the booth with a wine glass in his hand.
Several other people at the bar also noticed that I was in a bad mood, and after cautiously greeting me, they all ran to the booths.
The busy bartender at the bar glanced at me and said casually: "I heard that you almost died a few days ago. You just drank strong drinks when you were injured? Did you die?"
As he said that, he directly brought me a bottle of carbonated drink from under the counter, and said faintly: "You have been away for the past few days, and people from the Taoist sect come to see you every night... When did you provoke people from the Taoist sect again?
The boss took many people from the office to Nanling. We are seriously short of manpower in Hangzhou, so don’t mess with those old-fashioned people, okay?"
Hearing this, I became even more depressed. I took a big sip of carbonated drink and said helplessly: "The trouble was not caused by helping Yang Xiaoyun some time ago. Do you think I want to have a conflict with those people from the Taoist sect? Qian Qian
Sister has already told me that before I go back to school, I won’t go out for these two days. Isn’t it okay to just run between bars and villas? "
The bartender nodded and said: "I've been feeling uneasy lately. Even if the sneaky girl has been dealt with, I still feel like something is going to happen. Let's try to keep a low profile during this period... Damn it, here we go again.
It’s over, is it over yet?”
The bartender glared at the door of the bar, his eyes were cold and stern, and the cocktail glass in his hand was deformed.
I turned around and looked, and there were several people standing outside the bar door. Among the old men in Taoist robes was a young man I knew well, Zhang Yuan!
