Chapter 70 Clean Up
"this……"
She immediately walked up to take a look, then let out a sigh: "There is indeed someone here."
"Someone really?!"
The young men immediately changed their expressions and looked around carefully, for fear that someone would suddenly jump out to scare them.
They completely believed in the ability of this Miss Ning.
When I first came to the village, I seemed to be a weak woman, but she could easily kill more than a dozen extremely vicious hungry wolves to save the child. I even knew that magic could cure diseases and save people. At this time, even if she was a god, they believed it completely!
But Miss Ning said another sentence next, which made them feel relieved: "But he should have left here now, so you don't have to worry."
Several young ghosts were a little embarrassed, but they were also worried: "Miss Ning, can you tell where that person went?"
If you can't find it, it's really hard to work in this forest with peace of mind.
"If I guess right..."
Miss Ning raised her head slightly and looked in a certain direction in the distance, as if she had seen the mountain temple from a long distance, with deep eyes: "I should have gone there."
Under the leadership of Miss Ning, a few ghosts came to the distant mountain temple.
"Is there a mountain temple here?"
"No one has come to worship for a long time..."
They were talking and looking at the somewhat dilapidated mountain temple.
As a young man in the village and does not go up the mountain often, he naturally didn't know that there was a temple here that could be used to shelter from the rain.
However, there are also people with keen observations, and soon noticed the traces left by Jiang Lu here before.
"Hey! Why does it seem like someone is coming here!"
"Yes, you see, the door and roof here seem to have been repaired... By the way, there are signs of incense and candles lit here..."
A few young ghosts observed here and soon found many clues.
But what they didn't notice was that when Miss Ning was at the door, she suddenly stopped and her nose moved slightly under the veil, as if she had smelled some special breath in the air.
"This smell... is a little familiar..."
Her heart moved, and her beautiful eyebrows were thinking in her eyes.
She suddenly waved her hand gently, and a breeze blew by the temple, and many accumulated smells were flying, making it much clearer.
Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated and started to beat. Her slightly ecstatic eyes raised her eyes and looked at the statue of the mountain god, as if she had penetrated the statue and saw something hidden behind her.
“…”
She felt like she wanted to blurt out something, but when she said that, she couldn't say a word.
After being stunned for a while, she finally came to her senses and slowly lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
And a few young ghosts here were carefully observing clues of the mountain temple, trying to find traces of human existence. Even if they saw the straw raincoat placed in the corner, they felt that there might be something hidden in it.
Suddenly, I heard the voice of Miss Ning coming from behind.
"If what I guess is right, that person should be hiding here."
The ghosts quickly turned around and saw Miss Ning walking slowly, with a normal expression, and walked to the statue with a slight bow.
"I'm afraid there will be many offenses this time, so please forgive me..."
After worshiping, she turned to look at them: "Let's find firewood immediately and burn this mountain temple!"
"Ah? Burn it?"
The ghosts were stunned and looked left and right at the mountain temple, a little uncertain.
"I really want to burn this mountain temple?"
Although this has been ruined, it is still a temple at least. Isn’t this very disrespectful?
Miss Ning glanced at it and said lightly: "This is to get rid of the ghost-killing person. Lord Shan God will definitely forgive us."
"this……"
Although the ghosts felt something was wrong, they did make some sense when they heard these words. They were skeptical, so they just gritted their teeth and honestly followed her instructions.
It happened to be the woods next to it, and it was easy to find firewood. A few young ghosts worked together and soon piled up the easily lit firewood inside and outside the mountain temple, especially the walls outside, and they were firmly surrounded, for fear that somewhere would be leaked and that person would have the chance to escape.
Finally, Miss Ning took out the fire note with her own hands and threw it into the firewood.
In an instant, a wave of heat rose!
The flames seemed like greedy fire snakes, and in a flash they spread to the entire temple, with temperatures rising layer by layer.
This forest, which should have been shade, gradually became hot and unbearable, especially the young ghosts who were very close to each other, sweat was flowing from their foreheads. They had to take two steps back and finally breathed a sigh of relief as the mountain temple was burned by flames.
"I finally got rid of that person!"
"We can walk at night with peace of mind in the future!"
They were very happy and felt that this time they had done something big for the village.
Miss Ning looked at the rising flames and listened to the "crackling" sound of wood burning, quietly dazzled, not knowing what she was thinking.
She suddenly seemed to notice something and turned to look at the roots of a century-old tree in the distance.
"This is……"
She saw that the young ghosts did not pay attention to her at this time, so she walked slowly towards it. After getting closer, she noticed some fine black powder on the ground that was not completely covered.
"Ghost bone powder?!"
She bent down and reached out to touch some powder on the ground, as if she closed her eyes and sensed it, then opened her eyes, with a strange look on her eyes.
"And it doesn't look like an ordinary ghost...some strange aura..."
"Isn't the ghost that belongs to this world..."
While she was thinking about it, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from behind.
"Miss Ning, what are you looking at?"
It's the curious voice of a young ghost.
Her face was as usual, and she waved her hand as if nothing had happened, and then all the bone powder on the ground disappeared without a trace.
"nothing."
She turned and looked at the young ghosts, and the ruined mountain temple behind them that had burned and collapsed.
The flames were not completely extinguished and were still burning slowly.
It is estimated that after all the burning is left, there will be only a little bit of ashes that cannot be distinguished.
"The person will no longer appear, you can go back with confidence." She whispered.
"Very good!"
Several young ghosts clapped their hands to celebrate, but soon they noticed something was wrong.
"Hey, Miss Ning, don't you... go back to the village with us?"
