After giving up the bronze tripod, the three of them entered the main hall. The screen that Xiaolan and others had mentioned was erected at the right rear of the main hall.
Luo Jiutian shined a flashlight on the screen.
"Is that it?" Luo Jiutian walked around the screen, "There should be a secret passage behind this...ah, I saw it!"
The secret passage was dark, and the three of them walked quietly inside.
In the darkness pierced by the beam, countless dust particles floated. The Taoist priest sniffed, and he smelled the smell of incense ash that Xiaolan and the others had mentioned.
"Why haven't we arrived yet?" Luo Jiutian turned the flashlight to high beam and swayed forward, "We're not going wrong, are we?"
"Xiaolan and the others were gone for a long time," the Taoist priest said.
When he finally saw the wooden door, Luo Jiutian trotted over excitedly.
squeak--
This is a somewhat old door.
The three of them stood outside the door and looked at the furnishings in the room.
This is a somewhat crude room.
Tables, chairs, cushions...
They did not see the shadow of Lu Shoucai and Qiao Mei.
"Ah, I thought Lu Shoucai's body would still be here." Luo Jiutian walked in with his head tilted.
"Didn't I say it before?" Lao Luo said, "There is no one else in this temple except us."
"But he is already dead. Can you feel it too, dead man?"
"...What do you think I do?"
The Taoist priest briefly glanced around the room and then focused on the wall on the right. The Taoist priest's eyes lit up and he walked over quickly.
Lao Luo and Luo Jiutian looked at him.
The Taoist priest raised his hand.
That painting is still hanging on the wall.
Luo Jiutian scratched his head, "Why is this painting the same color as the wall?"
The Taoist Master gently took down the painting and held it in his hands. The three of them looked at the snow-white "painting" that could only be called drawing paper.
"This painting..." Luo Jiutian murmured, "Is it the same as the one in reality?"
Lao Luo turned the painting to the back and said, "There is no figure on the back of this painting."
"This means it hasn't been used yet," the Taoist priest rolled up the painting, "Maybe we can take it with us."
Luo Jiutian seemed to have suddenly figured out something, "Oh... I understand, no wonder you just said it would be better if the bridge were not here. It turns out it's because you are thinking about his paintings."
"This is not a painting by Qiao Wu," Taoist priest said sternly, "this is a painting by Lu Shoucai."
Is this what you are refuting?
"In that case, just take it," Lao Luo said. "Even if it's useless, there's no harm in taking it."
"Well, it would be nice if Zhou Ye and the others started their attack later," Luo Jiutian said. "Xiaolan and the others should have learned about this painting from Wu Ren, but they just didn't have time to tell us... By the way
, are they worried because they can’t contact us?”
"It will definitely happen," said Lao Luo, "and I suspect that Lord God is also looking for me."
"Xiaolan and the others should ask Wu Ren and Lao Mu to come and rescue us." Luo Jiutian nodded confidently.
"Lord God, it's possible," Lao Luo said, "The president's words... just..."
There was no need to count on it. If she had this time, she would rather eat a few more bowls of snail noodles.
"There's nothing to see here, let's go out," the Taoist priest said.
When returning the same way, Luo Jiutian looked at the scroll held in the Taoist Master's hand, thought for a while, and said, "Should we introduce this painting to Zhou Ye?"
"It doesn't matter," the Taoist priest tilted his head, "he wouldn't believe it anyway."
The Taoist priest's words came true. When Xia Hua and Li Muyuan curiously touched the painting, Zhou Ye curled his lips and scorned the blank painting that "can absorb the souls of evil people".
"Didn't you see anything else strange?" Zhou Ye asked.
"No," Luo Jiutian said, starting the car, "There's nothing inside."
"Then you are in good luck."
"What about you?" Luo Jiutian asked, "Have you discovered any new monsters?"
"Yes." Xia Hua said, reaching under the car seat and groping for it.
"Ah? Is it really dangerous?... You guys look very calm."
"This is it."
A green light flashed, and Xia Hua took out a mineral water bottle from under the seat. The green light came from the small gadget in the water bottle.
The Taoist priest took the bottle and asked, "What is this?"
Xia Hua and Li Muyuan looked at Zhou Ye, who looked angry and said, "This is a biting insect."
"Biting bug," Luo Jiutian almost laughed, "What a... such a direct name."
"We came up with this name," Zhou Ye said. "The biting insect is a strange insect we found in the wild. It has no name."
The Taoist priest looked at the little guy trapped in the plastic bottle.
This biting insect looks like a grasshopper that has lost its hind legs. The only two legs are at the connection between the head and the body, and the long nodular body is trailing behind. Although it looks clumsy,
The insect moved incredibly fast, with a bright green light flashing all over its body, and its small green eyes stared firmly at the Taoist Priest.
"Is there such a thing in the game?" Luo Jiutian asked, "Why haven't I seen it before?"
"Yes, but it's too small, so you might not notice it," Zhou Ye said, "This thing is very inconspicuous."
"How did you catch it?" the Taoist asked.
Li Muyuan and Xia Hua looked at Zhou Ye together, looking like they were suppressing laughter.
Zhou Ye's eyes were full of dissatisfaction, and he curled his lips, "It bit me."
"Pfft - Hahahaha!..." Luo Jiutian didn't save any face for Zhou Ye and laughed directly, "Aren't you very experienced? Hahaha... How did you get bitten? Hahaha..."
"That's because...I..."
Zhou Ye's face turned red and he was speechless for a long time.
"Okay, let me tell you," Xia Hua cleared her throat and said, "This biting insect can not only bite people, it can also absorb people's spiritual energy..."
"What?!" The steering wheel in Luo Jiutian's hand slipped, "Absorbing psychic energy?"
"Yes," Xia Hua said, "therefore, in the eyes of those of us with psychic powers, the bug will emit bright green light, but Zhou Ye no longer has the power, so he cannot see these bright lights...
"
"That's it..." the Taoist priest said.
Zhou Ye, who was in the back row, suddenly let out a choked cry, "It bites people very painfully!"
"Who told you to name it a biting insect?" Luo Jiutian teased, "The retribution must be on you."
"If it weren't for..." Zhou Ye saw Xia Hua's terrifying eyes and swallowed back his complaints, "Forget it..."
"By the way," Luo Jiutian turned the car around and went around the main road, "Where should we go next?"
