Thinking of this, Shen Luo stepped into the Heavenly King Hall in front of him. A broken Buddha statue stood in the hall. On the left and right, there should have been places where the Four Heavenly Kings were guarding, but now there was only a pile of rubble. The ground was covered with dust, and there were many spider webs hanging on the roof and walls. It looked like it had been abandoned for many years.
He walked around the hall and found nothing unusual, so he turned around and left, entering the bell tower on the side.
Soon, Shen Luo searched all the buildings in the first courtyard inside and out, but found nothing unusual and the ghost did not appear.
He did not stop here, but continued walking along the aisle on one side of the square, heading deeper into the temple.
After a moment, Shen Luo walked out of the Main Hall, which was still relatively well preserved. His face looked normal, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He had just searched almost the entire second courtyard, which was the core area of the temple, but he did not find any ghosts, let alone any trace of ghost energy.
Not only that, there were no signs of fighting anywhere in the temple. If he had not heard in advance about the Lin and Du families' visiting officials yesterday, he would have thought that no one had ever been here.
"Could it be that the ghost has already noticed the Horse-Face, and has hidden himself a long time ago? But the Horse-Face should have anticipated this and will not be exposed so easily." Shen Luo guessed secretly in his heart.
"Forget it, I don't want to think too much. I'll just do my own thing. As for whether the ghost will show up or not, I'll just leave it to fate." He said to himself, walked around the main hall and continued to walk deeper into the temple, where there were still a few buildings that had not been explored. They should be places like the Dharma Hall, Sutra Hall, and Zen Room.
A burst of hurried footsteps came from the front, and two monks in yellow robes ran over. One of them was the young monk who opened the door for him, and the other monk was older, around 30 or 40 years old.
"Master Immortal, help!" The two were filled with panic. Seeing Shen Luo, the young monk shouted and ran over.
"What happened? Why haven't you left yet?" Shen Luo frowned slightly.
“We had planned to leave, but when we passed a gray tower in front of us, we heard a woman crying inside. One of my fellow monks suddenly stopped and walked into the tower. No matter how we called and pulled him, he did not stop. The ghost you mentioned might be there. I beg you, Master, to subdue the ghost and rescue my fellow monk.” The young monk said, clasping his hands together and bowing.
"I beg you, Master." Another middle-aged monk also bowed and said, looking quite calm.
"Oh, take me to see it." Shen Luo was startled and said so.
"Master, please follow us." The two monks breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Shen Luo agreed, and immediately led the way.
The three of them walked forward and soon arrived at the last courtyard. A three-story gray tower building appeared in front of them.
This grey tower didn't look unusual. Half of the top of the tower had been broken, the walls were peeling off in many places, and the tower itself seemed to be tilted.
Shen Luo stood there and listened attentively, but did not hear the woman's crying sound as the young monk mentioned. There was only a gray tower standing quietly in the night.
