During this trip, Qin Shaoyou did not encounter any ambushes or sneak attacks. It seems that he acted in advance, and those who were planning to target him were not aware of it yet.
This made Qin Shaoyou strengthen his judgment.
In the evening, the carriage stopped in front of an abandoned temple.
The road they took was actually a long-abandoned official road. Although it was a bit detoured, fortunately there were no people around, so it was relatively safe.
At this time, the weather was not good, and from behind the clouds in the distance, some rumbling sounds could be heard from time to time, as if it was going to rain soon.
When driving on a rainy night, the sound of thunder may frighten the horses.
After careful consideration, Qin Shaoyou decided to spend the night in this ruined temple before leaving.
Besides, even if he and Lao Hong have nothing to do with each other, Qiaoer must not be able to stand it.
There were collapsed stone statues everywhere in the ruined temple. Qin Shaoyou glanced at it and didn't see what was originally enshrined here, so he stopped thinking about it.
Lao Hong parked the carriage under the eaves, led the two horses into the ruined temple, and tied them to the pillars of the hall.
Now, even if it rains heavily tonight, there won't be any big problem.
However, for the sake of safety, Lao Hong still patrolled around the ruined temple. After finding no problems, he pasted one or two detonation charms on some important corners and nodded with satisfaction.
As soon as he finished cleaning up, night fell and it started pouring rain outside.
"The spring thunder is rolling, I think this year will be another good harvest!"
Lao Hong didn't know what he was thinking of, so he stood under the eaves and said with emotion.
"Can't you tell, Lao Hong, you have ever farmed?"
Qin Shaoyou stood behind him and joked with a faint smile.
"Lao Hong, I was originally a farmer. My family used to be poor and we could only rely on the weather for food. When I was young, my hometown suffered from severe drought for three consecutive years. Starvation spread all over the country. Even my family members starved to death.
..."
"If I hadn't met..."
"Hey, what are you talking about? Master, you can rest first. Lao Hong, I'm just here to watch. Nothing will happen."
Lao Hong said halfway, then suddenly stopped.
Qin Shaoyou nodded slightly, turned around and walked in without asking any questions.
At this moment, Qiao'er had moved some shabby seats from the ruined temple to the open space in the middle, and was sweating profusely while striking flints.
However, perhaps because of the drizzle before, the flint was wet, and now she couldn't light it after struggling for a long time.
Lao Hong glanced at it from the corner of his mouth, curled his lips, reached out and took out a flame talisman, and with a swish, it turned into a streak of fire, lighting up the pile of firewood in an instant.
Duan shocked Qiaoer.
When the fire lit up, this small ruined temple suddenly became warm.
The next day, Qin Shaoyou stood outside the ruined temple that was burned into ruins, lost in thought.
"Master...I...I didn't mean it..."
"I'm afraid that the young master will be cold..."
Last night, Qin Shaoyou was meditating quietly. In the second half of the night, the fire gradually weakened and seemed to be extinguished at any time.
Qiaoer was afraid that Qin Shaoyou would catch cold at night, so he went to great lengths to find a large candlestick from behind the ruined temple.
I don’t know that she looks very weak, but she can drag a big guy weighing more than ten kilograms.
And when she put the candlestick on the fire, Lao Hong, who was taking a nap, suddenly sat up and shouted "No!"
Then, the candlestick exploded with a bang!
For a moment, flames shot out randomly, igniting all the debris!
If Lao Hong and Qin Shaoyou hadn't had some skills, the two horses that were so frightened that they farted repeatedly would have been roasted to death.
The ingenious Qiaoer didn't know that there was a blasting charm left by Lao Hong on that candlestick.
And Lao Hong would never have thought that someone would move such a big table and use it as firewood...
Fortunately, there was no danger, the two horses are now relatively stable, the carriage was rescued in time, and all three people are intact.
Qin Shaoyou touched his nose and suddenly felt dumbfounded.
However, just when he was about to say something, a look of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he turned his gaze and landed on the lower part of the original half stone statue.
There, a dark hole was revealed.
Come to think of it, there was originally something blocking this place, and none of them noticed it, but now, after a fire, a secret here was burned out.
"Uncle Hong, look at that!"
Qin Shaoyou pointed there, and Lao Hong immediately looked in the direction of his finger.
"Is it a cellar?!"
Both of them looked surprised. After looking at each other, they looked there together in unison.
"Master, be careful of fraud!"
Lao Hong reminded with caution.
However, as soon as Qin Shaoyou discovered the entrance to the cave, he sent out his spiritual thoughts to investigate. There were three rooms in the cellar, all of which were square...
Um?
It doesn’t seem right!
This doesn't look like a cellar, but rather... a cemetery!
In the middle is the main tomb chamber. In the center of the main tomb chamber, there is a huge stone coffin, with two ear chambers on both sides. There are a large number of funerary objects densely packed in the ear chambers!
This is really strange. Someone actually built a temple on top of a cemetery?
Qin Shaoyou looked at the collapsed stone statue at this time, and suddenly realized that the person enshrined in this temple could not be the owner of this tomb, right?
Could it be that this is not a ruined temple but an ancestral hall?!
However, I have never heard of anyone building an ancestral hall on top of a cemetery?
Who are these people!
"If I read it correctly, there is a cemetery under the entrance of the cave, and the stone statue above the entrance of the cave should be the owner of the cemetery."
As soon as Qin Shaoyou's words came out, Qiao'er immediately turned pale with fright. Although her face was dark at this time, it could not hide her panic and fear expression at all.
But he saw her trembling, and subconsciously stretched out her hands and hugged Qin Shaoyou's left arm.
Qin Shaoyou glanced sideways at her, and then the latter released his hand in a panic.
"What do the dead have to fear?"
"You guys wait for me here, I'll go down and take a look."
"ah?!"
"Master, you...you still want to go down?!"
Qiaoer swallowed, as if he couldn't figure out Qin Shaoyou's intention.
"Master, this place is so weird, could it be a trap? I think..."
Lao Hong was also worried.
"Don't worry, I will call you if there is danger."
As Qin Shaoyou spoke, he walked towards the cave entrance involuntarily. Lao Hong just wanted to activate the star pattern seal to explore the situation inside, but then he thought about it, Qin Shaoyou should have already explored it, otherwise, there would be no way.
You are so entrusted that you have to go in and take a look.
He had heard that the ancient cultivation method had a special ability that could silently detect places invisible to the naked eye.
It seems that Qin Shaoyou used this method.
After thinking about it this way, he didn't feel so worried anymore.
"Master, please be safe. If you are in danger, call out immediately. Lao Hong is here!"
Qin Shaoyou waved his hand, then jumped up and disappeared into the entrance of the cave.
