"What else?" I asked.
"As for the other things, I don't know." Xinyue showed some doubts and said: "I have been making white lanterns for decades, but I haven't done anything else at all. No one has done anything. I wonder what secret this lamplighter hides?”
“Let’s leave the white lantern alone and go take a look in the backyard first! There is a well there, and you can get to the place where the body is hidden. Go to the underground palace." I said.
"Yes!" Xinyue nodded, then followed me, and I led her towards the backyard.
Although the Baijia Temple was filled with white lanterns today, nothing unusual happened when we walked inside. Without any problems, we entered the backyard.
rope? Isn't this the rope that Yue Furong tied when we went down to the bottom of the well last time? Why are you still there now? Last time we tried to climb up from the bottom of the well, we found that the rope was gone, but now it's back?
"Go down?" Xinyue pointed to the rope and asked me.
“We must go down!”
I grabbed the rope and went down to the bottom of the well, and Xinyue soon followed.
To be honest, the scene at the bottom of the well is almost the same as the last time I came down. I have been here once before and am quite familiar with the environment of the underground palace, so naturally I have to lead the way!
"How far is it to where are those corpses?" Xinyue asked me.
"It's right in front. We should be there in another ten minutes or so at most." I said.
About ten minutes later, we successfully arrived at the place where countless coffins were placed. But the scene in front of me shocked me. The lids of the coffins in front of me were all opened. What surprised me most was that all the corpses in the coffins were gone.
So many corpses, all disappeared at once, something big is definitely going to happen!
"When you came last time, were you sure there were corpses in these coffins?" Xinyue asked.
"Yes!" I nodded and said, "We opened several coffins at that time, and they all had corpses inside, and those corpses had one thing in common, they all had the souls of thieves and corpse dogs on them."< br>
“You only opened a few mouthfuls, but not all of them?” Xinyue asked me.
"Yes!" I nodded.
"Then how can you be sure that there are corpses in all these coffins?" Xinyue's question really stopped me.
"Yue Furong said it." I said.
"Also, there are at least thousands of coffins here. Even if there is one corpse per coffin, there must be thousands of corpses here! With so many corpses, only thieves and corpse dogs are left to eat them. You two souls, how powerful can you be to do such a thing?" Xinyue frowned, and then said, "I feel like there's something wrong with this."
"You mean Yue Furong is lying?" I asked.
"Then what do you think?" Xinyue asked me.
"Judging from my previous contact with her, what Yue Furong said is inherently true and false, and is not worthy of full belief." I said.
"Is it not worthy of full trust, or not worthy of trust at all?" Listening to Xinyue's meaning, it seems that Yue Furong is a female ghost who cannot be trusted at all!
"Do you know what Yue Furong's plan is and why she wants to lie to us?" I asked Xinyue.
“How do I know what she has in mind?” Xinyue gave me a roll of her eyes and said, “Let’s go find Yi Ba quickly! Although when dealing with ghosts, Yi Ba more capable than you Big, but mentally, he is much simpler than you, and he is more gullible than you."
While I was away, Yue Furong called Yi Ba away alone, probably. Want to do something to him.
Xin Yue and I searched in the underground palace for several hours, looking everywhere we could. Not only did we not see Yi Ba and Yue Furong, we didn't even touch a little ghost or anything like that. arrive.
“That’s weird.” I said.
"Looking at it like this, we can't find Yi Ba." Xinyue sighed and said: "Since God's will is this, let's not force it. Let's go out first and then make a long-term plan!"
Searching here like a headless fly, it is really impossible to find Yi Ba. After searching for so many hours, I was a little tired.
Xinyue and I returned to the wellhead. The rope was still there, and we climbed up one after another.
After coming out of Baijia Temple, Xinyue said that she still had things to do and asked me to go down the mountain quickly and not stay on Mengquan Mountain. I asked her why, but she didn't tell me.
Xin Yue’s words can be trusted, she will not cheat me. She told me to go down the mountain quickly. She must have a reason. So after saying goodbye to her, I was very obedient and headed down the mountain.
When we returned to Guquan Old Street, it was already late at night.
It’s so late, but the door of Sanji Pawn is still open? What are Sister Shaoyao doing tonight? It’s already this hour and you’re still not sleeping?
Out of curiosity, I decided to go to Sanji Pawn to have a look.
“Aren’t you asleep yet?” Seeing Sister Shaoyao sitting on a chair and drinking tea there, I said hello to her with a smile.
“Aren’t I worried about you and can’t sleep?” Sister Shaoyao looked at me with curious eyes and asked, “You ran to Mengquan Mountain to look for Yi Ba, did you find him?”
"If I find it, can I come back alone?" I gave Sister Shaoyao a speechless look, and then said: "I don't know where Yi Ba went, there is not even a trace of him."
"You can't control where the feet are on him, and you can't control where he goes." Sister Shaoyao paused and said, "I would like to remind you, don't worry about so much, just be able to control the situation." If you take care of it yourself, you're doing well."
"What do you mean?" I looked at Sister Shaoyao in confusion and asked, "Don't you know anything?"
"I sit in the store every day, never leaving the door without leaving the door. What can I know?" Sister Shaoyao definitely knows something, but looking at her like this, she obviously doesn't want to tell me. .
"It's getting late, you should rest early! I'm going back." After saying goodbye to Sister Shaoyao, I went back to Yiba Pavilion.
Time passed by more than half a week, and Yi Ba still hadn't come back.
Leaved without saying goodbye and still hasn’t come back after being away for so many days. I was getting more and more worried about Yi Ba, whether something had happened.
“Looking at how worried you are, are you thinking about Yi Ba?” Sister Shaoyao came in and asked me with a smile.
"Sister Shaoyao, you have a broad path, why don't you help me find out where Yi Ba went?" Although I knew that Sister Shaoyao would probably reject me, I still opened my mouth to her.
"You didn't even tell me, can he tell me?" Sister Shaoyao rolled her eyes at me and said, "Yi Badu is such a big man, and besides, in terms of ability, he can't No worse than you. Even if he encounters something weird, he can handle it on his own! I don’t know what you have to worry about.”
"The main reason is that his departure this time is really strange." I said.
“What’s weird?” Sister Shaoyao smiled and asked, “You have been with Yi Ba for so long, do you think he is the kind of person who can be easily deceived?”
“No.” Yi Ba is still very smart, I firmly believe this.
"Since it's not the case, have you ever thought that Yi Ba probably left on his own initiative!" Sister Shaoyao paused and said, "Everyone has their own secrets. Yi Ba chose to keep it secret. I left without telling you, that is when I left He said that he doesn’t want to share his little secret with you, so why do you have to force it, and why do you have to travel all over the world to find him?”
“You? Does this mean that Yi Ba is okay?" I asked.
"Before I met you, didn't Yi Ba himself live for more than twenty years? He didn't have any trouble for more than twenty years, how can he do it in the next few days?" Sister Shaoyao gave me a look of disgust and said, "No. If you think you can't live without someone else, you have to have trouble. Look at your two old friends, they haven't come to see you for a long time! Aren't they also living well? "Sister Shaoyao said this. It still makes sense. In this world, no one can live without anyone. Maybe Yi Ba is really doing his own thing. He is such a big man and can make his own decisions. There is really no need for me to worry about it.
