Chapter 1316 Blind Tutu
Two people ran up the stairs. The leader was the shopkeeper of Bao Mo Zhai. The shopkeeper stopped in front of Jiang Cheng and the others. His face was red and he was breathing heavily, but there was a gap between his eyebrows. But there was excitement that could not be concealed, "I have good news for you. We have contacted the gentleman. The gentleman has seen Brother Jiang. I’m very interested in the box you gave me and have agreed to meet you.”
“Great! When?”
“Now.”
The fat man looked outside through the gap in the window. It was completely dark outside now, and the surroundings were relatively quiet. It was obviously late at night.
"Now...is it too late now?"
This environment is vaguely unsettling.
The shopkeeper also showed a puzzled expression, and nodded later, "Indeed, but the opportunity is rare. I have never met this gentleman, but it is said that this gentleman has a very weird personality and does things in an eclectic way. "If you don't go to the appointment tonight, I'm afraid if you want to see him again in the future..."
Since the words have been mentioned to this extent, they have no choice but to not go, and Jiang Cheng can feel that this mission It's almost over, and maybe this gentleman is the last breakthrough.
“Thank you for the kindness of the shopkeeper. Let’s go to the appointment. Where is the agreed place and is it far from here?”
Hearing this, the shopkeeper seemed to be relieved. It took a lot of effort to get an appointment with this gentleman. He didn't want to waste this opportunity. He nodded and explained: "It's a bit far away. It's outside the city. It's... the blind building." Toutuo Temple, the temple where you found people. ”
This is the Blind Toutuo Temple again...
Liu Xueyi was found here. The five people gathered before were also in this temple, as if this was an inconspicuous abandoned temple. It holds many unknown secrets.
It is definitely not a coincidence that the other party set the meeting place here. He either knows the inside story, or... or there is a big problem with this gentleman's identity.
But Jiang Cheng was not completely unprepared. They had the dressing mirror and the little boy. The little boy also had a very strange identity, especially the jade pendant. There were thousands of connections between him and the owner of the tomb. They are inextricably linked, but fortunately the fat man and the boy have a good relationship. This is their trump card at the critical moment.
Of course, it would be terrible if a little boy was playing them.
This suspicion cannot be ruled out, but now they have no other way.
"Huh? Any of you are not here?" The shopkeeper looked at the people in Jiangcheng, and then looked into the room, "Where is Mr. Yuan? I remember there is a little girl."
< br>"They went out to meet friends and won't be back tonight. "
Jiang Cheng just found an excuse and excused himself. Fortunately, the shopkeeper didn't ask any further questions. He just told them that the current situation outside was chaotic and they should try not to wander around. He also assured them that it was absolutely safe here. They can live with peace of mind and stay as long as they want.
The fat man likes the shopkeeper's kind-hearted nature very much. You can see the sincerity in his eyes, because we all know each other about Mr. Kegong and are now friends.
The shopkeeper said that he would be busy with a meeting with student representatives later, so he would not send them there and asked his assistant to take them to the Fat Toutuo Temple.
This guy is a strong young man in his early 20s, with dark skin, short hair, relatively simple appearance, but a strong body. The shopkeeper introduced him and said that this guy is from the nearby village and is very familiar with the terrain. , you can ask him if you don’t understand.
After the explanation, the shopkeeper hurriedly said goodbye and left.
The first thing that Jiangcheng people did after they went downstairs was to look for the little boy. But after searching around, there was no trace of the boy. The fat man found the old man who was looking after the store. The old man was lying on his back. Napping on the counter.
After being called up, the old man still looked dazed, but when Jiang Cheng asked where the little boy was, the old man adjusted his glasses and asked doubtfully: "I don't know, isn't he with you guys?" ?”
The fat man was stunned for a moment, and then asked: “Didn’t you take him downstairs?”
The old man was stunned when he heard this, and shook his head in denial. "How is it possible? I have been looking at the store downstairs, and then I fell asleep without knowing it. I never went upstairs, and I never heard any of you calling me."
Now the fat man was panicking. He saw Jiang Cheng take the person out with his own eyes. Jiang Cheng also confirmed that he had seen the old gentleman, and personally entrusted the boy to him and asked him to help look after him, but in the end... it turned out that the old gentleman actually said he didn't know!
So which old gentleman took the boy away?
Where did it take him?
Luo Tianhe had a regretful expression on his face and couldn't help but say: "What a pity. It seems that this little boy is the key to breaking the situation. There must be something strange disguised as an old man and take him away. We...we missed the opportunity."
"I'm afraid he is related to the owner of the tomb, maybe he is the owner of the tomb, the arrogant prince, but now he has gradually regained consciousness. Goodbye! I'm afraid..."
Luo Tianhe did not continue speaking, firstly because there would be no results if he continued, and secondly because he was shocked by the fat man's eyes, "That child may be related to Wang Yanhou, but he is definitely I am not lying, I can feel what the child is thinking, he will not do such a cruel thing, he is not that kind of person."
Luo Tianhe smiled bitterly without explaining.
After confirming that the boy was not nearby, Jiang Cheng and others no longer hesitated and asked the assistant to lead the way. The group went straight to the Blind Totu Temple outside the city. On the way, Jiang Cheng asked the assistant about the origin of the temple.
“This temple has existed for a long time. I’ve known about it since I was a child, but in my mind it was an abandoned temple. When we were kids, we were running around, and adults would tell us to stay away from this temple. Stay far away, don’t go there to play.”
“At first we were still there. I just thought it was crowded there, maybe there were bad people or something, but later I found out that it was because of the temple, and there was something wrong with the temple itself.”
Maybe it was because I was walking at night, so I walked in front. The boy's voice echoed in the night, and it was actually a little distorted, giving people the feeling that it was not real.
“No one in the tens of miles around this temple knows the origin of this temple, let alone who built this temple, or even...not even which immortal family member is worshiped. Clear.”
"The so-called blind tutuo is just a title. I don't know who called it first, and then it spread. After all, the clay sculpture inside is indeed blind."
"No one knows it. Whoever made it, in everyone’s impression, when they first saw this temple, the clay sculptures inside were blind, and the upper half of their faces were scratched, so they couldn’t recognize their original appearance at all.”
< br>"And because the statue is a plump man sitting there cross-legged, everyone said he looked like a fat man, and because he was blind in his tricks, the name came out."
said. The waiter turned around and looked the fat man up and down curiously, "Not to mention, he looks about the same size as this boss." (End of Chapter)
