Chapter Eighty-Seven, Exploring the Soul Shrine

Matthew's efficiency was unexpectedly high, Tang Yao waited in the hotel for two days, Matthew's call came, I don't know what method he used, but Hunter basically explained everything, but what he said was a little bizarre.

Hunter said that about ten days ago, he had two businesses yellow, and he was not feeling well and was ready to visit the nearby shrine, and the shrine he went to was not famous, the strange thing is that when he entered the shrine, it was still daytime, but as soon as he crossed the torii gate, it became night, and there was no one in the shrine, at that time Hunter felt that something was wrong and wanted to leave quickly, but at that time he saw a huge red ghost, the ghost blocked his way away, Hunter thought that he should have been in the illusion, but he couldn't crack it.

Just then, the goblin offers him a deal in which it says it can help Hunter get revenge, and Hunter needs to do what it tells him to do.

Tang Yao almost burst out laughing when he heard this, and said, "Hunter, this guy is obviously talking nonsense, do you really believe it?" ”

As a result, Matthew on the other side of the phone replied coldly: "I used our family's secret technique on him, controlling his mind with the power of blood, and it is absolutely impossible for him to tell a lie in this situation." ”

"So, he's telling the truth, a mysterious goblin has framed me, so who stole your family's Iron Rose arrows to kill Arlinn Girul?"

"It's also this mysterious ghost, this is what Hunter said, he doesn't know much, and the plan is also what the ghost told him, he said that after that meeting at the shrine, he will go to the shrine every time they meet, and the ghost tells him his next move, he says that he is like a demon and believes more and more in the words of the ghost, even to the point of obeying his words, I did find that he has traces of other illusions attached to him when I cast a blood illusion on Hunter, in other words, he has been illusioned in the shrine, And I didn't notice it after I got it......"

"That is to say, the rank of the person who cast illusions on him is much higher than that of himself, I remember that Hunter is a first-stage illusionist, and the strength of the illusionist who can cast illusions on him and make him unaware of it is at least two or higher, but this range is also too large, and two stage illusionists are not small."

Matthew said on the phone: "So, I think you should go to that shrine in person, maybe you can find some clues, Hunter is currently under my control, and he shouldn't be going out to make trouble, you'd better take advantage of this time to find out who is behind the trouble as soon as possible." ”

Matthew hung up the phone, Tang Yao sighed and said, "I still work hard, and I still pay for the round-trip fare." ”

Coming down from the rail transit, Tang Yao followed the mobile phone navigation and walked for a while, and after turning two intersections, he saw the entrance of a small shrine, the torii gate erected at the entrance did not look magnificent and luxurious, it looked cold and deserted, Tang Yao came to this country and saw the most is a variety of shrines, many of which have become internationally famous attractions, and there are constant tourists on weekdays, and the incense is also very strong.

And the shrine in front of me looks a little decayed in comparison.

Tang Yao stood across the road, did not enter the shrine immediately, but ran to the convenience store opposite to buy some food, sat by the window and looked at the shrine opposite, and quietly opened the pupils, but under the gaze of the pupils, the whole shrine seems to be no different, if someone has arranged illusions in the entire shrine, it should not be able to escape Tang Yao's pupils.

At this time, a convenience store tally clerk came over and asked with a smile: "You speak Chinese, are you tourists?" ”

Tang Yao was a little surprised, because this tally clerk spoke fluent Chinese and couldn't hear it at all.

"I'm an international student, I'm here to work, hehe, it's rare to see compatriots, this is not a scenic spot, why did you come here to travel?" The tally clerk seemed very enthusiastic, and seemed to be happy to see his compatriots from the bottom of his heart.

"Oh, I'm just wandering around, walking and playing casually, and when I see the shrine in front of me, I want to go in and worship, isn't it just when I'm hungry to buy some food." Tang Yao casually rebuttered a few words.

"Oh...... You must not go to the shrine opposite......" The little brother's voice changed, and he quietly leaned over and said, "That shrine is haunted, and the locals nearby don't go to worship, do you see the chains pulled on the torii gate at the door and the rune paper hanging on it, it is said that those are used to suppress ghosts, and they were left by the local residents after inviting the mage of Yinyangliao to come over and practice." ”

When Tang Yao heard this, he became even more interested, and asked curiously, "Haunted, why is the shrine closed?" ”

"I can't close it.,I heard that this shrine used to be dedicated to a certain retainer of a local wealthy family.,This retainer used to give his life for this wealthy family.,It is said that the shrine will be wiped out as soon as the retainer of this retainer is closed.,Local residents complained a lot of times to no avail.,At first, even the shrine was not locked.,Usually some tourists who don't know the mystery still go inside.,There have been many strange things.,Even died.,That's when the shrine was locked.,There's a sign at the door.,You see the sign hanging over there.,It's to tell tourists not to go in. , saying that the interior renovation is not open to the public, but in fact it is haunted. ”

"Haunted, isn't that, have you seen it with your own eyes?" Tang Yao asked with a smile.

The tally brother nodded seriously and said, "I've really seen it." ”

"Nonsense, how can there be a ghost in the world, you tell me, I'll listen."

The tally brother said with a serious face: "It was some time ago, when I was on the night shift, about eleven o'clock in the evening, there was basically no one around that time, and then I saw a ghost fire in the shrine for a while, I thought I was wrong, I didn't expect to wait for a while to come a person, it was a foreigner, the god mysteriously looked around, and then approached the shrine, I was more courageous, I felt that this foreigner was very suspicious, so I ran to the outside of the shrine to look inside, you also saw that this shrine is not bigI saw the foreigner talking to a huge monster, and the silhouette of the huge monster looked like a ghost in a local legend, and I was startled and ran away, but I can tell you responsibly that I must have seen a ghost......

At this time, the manager of the convenience store called the tally brother away, Tang Yao wiped his mouth and looked at the shrine opposite, guessing that the foreigner that the tally brother saw was probably Hunter, and the huge silhouette he saw should be the so-called ghost that Matthew forced to ask and manipulate Hunter behind his back.

At this time, the already gloomy sky began to rain, a large number of dark clouds continued to come, the pedestrians on the road began to speed up their pace, and after a while, there was no one on the street, Tang Yao put on a hat and walked out of the convenience store at this time, and slowly walked in the direction of the shrine.

The shrine was indeed sealed with chains and runes as the tally brother said, but it was not tightly sealed, and it was easy to cross over, and there was a sign hanging next to it, which read in many Chinese: Interior renovation, no entry.

Of course, Tang Yao ignored the warning of the sign and entered the shrine over the chains and rune paper.

There are many gods in this country, so the shrines dedicated to different gods are also different, the famous several major shrines occupy a large area, the scenery is unique but not the same, and some small shrines will also change because of the different gods worshipped, Tang Yao checked before he came, this shrine was first dedicated to a local low-level god, similar to a piece of land, and later this shrine was bought by a family in the Yin and Yang Liao, specifically which family Tang Yao did not find, However, when it was bought, the shrine was dedicated to a retainer of the family, who is said to have protected the lord in a great war hundreds of years ago and was a loyal and brave man.

It is said that his ghost is stationed in the shrine, and once the shrine is demolished, his soul will dissipate.

Tang Yao felt that the second half was basically nonsense, in his opinion, this shrine was very likely to be the stronghold of a local illusionist family, and Hunter was introduced into the arranged illusion trap without knowing it.
