Neither of us was in the mood to chat. We were like ants on a hot pan, walking in circles. We didn't feel hungry anymore, but we were filled with worry.
I waited until 4pm, and I couldn't wait any longer. Wang Zijun and Qu Mo were both well-travelled people, so how could they not find us? We had been waiting for seven hours, so even at night they should have arrived early.
"No, let's go find them." I said to Shen Bing, then put the bag on my shoulder.
Shen Bing also picked up her bag and frowned, saying, "What if we miss it?"
I couldn't care less. First, I was worried about them. Second, I would starve to death if I just sat there and waited. "Look at the terrain. There is only a road down from the northern mountain village. The rest of the place is all cliffs and there is no road at all. We should not miss it." I pointed to the steep mountain to the south and climbed up towards the mountain village.
It was easy to get down, but it was hard to get up. The slope was very steep, and we were hungry. It took us two hours to get to the village. We were so hungry and thirsty that we couldn't walk anymore. We had no choice but to run to the small shop and order two big bowls of noodles. This time, Shen Bing didn't think it was bad and ate it all up.
Because this mountain village is quite remote, few outsiders set foot in it. This is the third time we have eaten in this small shop, which attracted the attention of the owner. He asked us where we are from and why we came here. Because we paid the bill in a hurry the first two times and didn't say anything to the owner, we could only see his face clearly at this moment. In fact, it was not easy to see his face clearly through a thick layer of mud. He had a thin face, a pair of mustaches on his lips, and his eyes were a little yellow, just like a tuberculosis patient.
No matter how you look at it, he looks very similar to the boss of the underworld bank.
I lied that I came to Tianwang Mountain for a visit, but I got lost and didn't get out of here last night. The boss was kind enough to tell me that if I walked east along the mountain range after leaving the village, I would be able to return to Tianwang Mountain. We actually know this road, so I didn't get lost here on purpose.
He also told us that we were not the only ones who were lost. When we were coming back from the city after buying pig heads this morning, we met two young men and women in the "Xiaoguan Temple" in front of us. They were also lost and wandering in the cemetery.
Shen Bing and I looked at each other immediately, thinking, could it be Qu Mo and Wang Zijun? I hurriedly asked about the characteristics of the two people, and the boss said, "Damn, it's really them." How could they get lost in a cemetery in broad daylight? I asked the boss where the two people went later. The boss said that the girl seemed to be sick and sat in front of the small official temple and couldn't move. He told the two people how to get there, and then went back to the village. He didn't know what happened afterwards.
Qu Mosheng was ill? This was a bit strange. She had cultivated from a five-tailed fox to a six-tailed fox. It was impossible for ordinary diseases to invade her body. She must have been attacked by a ghost. The fox spirit in her body was a time bomb. It would cause trouble wherever she went.
We asked what the Xiaoguan Temple meant. The boss narrowed his eyes and told us that according to legend, more than a hundred years ago, there was a village in front of us. A high-ranking official emerged from the village, but no one knew how high his rank was. When the high-ranking official returned home in glory, he was very modest and said that he was a low-ranking official. After his death, his descendants built a temple at the entrance of the village, which was called Xiaoguan Temple. The two of us were not in the mood to chat. We were like ants on a hot pot, turning in circles. We didn't feel hungry, but we were full of worries.
