I really don't want to be a teacher

Under the dark night, one person and one mouse gradually drifted away, and the bustling Lin'an City, like the bustling Jingci Temple, was gradually left behind.

Chapter 133 The Village

After leaving Jingci Temple, Lian Ge walked towards the direction away from Lin'an city without haste.

As the lights behind him faded away, the people in front of them gradually became sparsely populated.

"rustle……"

Facing the dark night, Lian Ge walked to a mountain forest with luxuriant foliage and dense vegetation after leaving Jingci Temple for a few hours.

I didn't stop much, and I didn't choose to take a detour.

Waving the branches and leaves of the forest, Lian Ge followed the upward slope and walked into the dense forest.

The luxuriant trees made the whole mountain forest dense and dark, but it had no effect on Lian Ge.

"Goo...coo...hiss..."

"rustle……"

In the darkness of the entire mountain forest, there seemed to be countless creatures lurking, making some movements from time to time.

Lian Ge didn't care too much, stepped on the rotten dead branches and leaves under his feet, and walked towards the depths of the dense forest and the top of the mountain without haste.

"rustle……"

Pushing aside the branches blocking the way, Lian Ge slightly stamped his feet.

He lowered his head, squatted down slightly, and glanced at the ground under his feet.

Lian Ge found that there was a clear trail on the ground, which was obviously the trace left by people who had been stepped on frequently.

Standing up again, Lian Ge swept around.

His eyes paused again. On his left side, on the higher hillside, there was a faint fire in the darkness.

After slightly stamping his feet and scanning the path under his feet, Lian Ge moved away again and walked straight towards the firelight.

As he continued to move forward, the road under his feet gradually became easier to walk, and the branches and leaves of the shrubs blocking the way gradually became less and less, and the light of the fire in the distance gradually became clearer.

After walking along the winding path for a while, Lian Ge stopped again in front of the fire.

In front of him, this is a dilapidated old small temple with only a small room, where a small altar is enshrined. On the altar sits two statues of clay statues, which seem to be the Lord of the Land.

It's just that there is an obvious fracture mark on the neck of the sitting clay statue, but it is covered with a red cloth, but the head is no longer in its original place.

In front of the altar of the headless god statue, there is an old incense burner, in which some burnt incense is inserted, and beside the incense burner, there are two pillars of long wax with a glass cover, but one of them has been burned. Burned out, the other column of wax has also been consumed.

And next to the incense burner and long wax, on the altar, there is something wrapped in red cloth. From the angle and size of the scales exposed, it can be seen that it is the head of the headless god before it broke. .

Under this altar with incense burner long wax, there are several grass futons on the ground.

After glancing at the small earth temple, Lian Ge walked in,

"Passing by Baodi, stay overnight."

Although it can be seen that there is no spirituality on the statue, Lian Ge still said something polite to the statue.

Squatting down, Lian Ge pulled a futon and placed it by the wall of the earth temple, and then sat down against the wall.

"Squeak..."

The little white mouse on the shoulder turned its head, looked around the earth temple, and called a few times.

"Go to sleep."

Lian Ge glanced at the little white mouse and smiled slightly.

After using his mana to cast a small spell on himself and the mouse to reduce the sense of existence, Lian Ge sat on the futon, leaning against the wall, and closed his eyes to rest.

The little white mouse squatting on Lian Ge's shoulder turned its head, followed Lian Ge's arm, ran to another futon, and lay down.

In the Earth Temple, it became quiet again.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

"rustle……"

"Chirp..."

The breeze blew through the luxuriant forest, and the rising sun shone through the dense shade of the trees, swaying dappled sunlight towards the dense forest.

Leaving from the nest, the birds and beasts that began to hunt disturbed the branches and leaves of the bushes.

In the Temple of the Earth,

Lian Ge, who was leaning against the wall, also woke up,

After opening his eyes, Lian Ge stood up from the futon.

On the side futon, the little white mouse who heard the movement also rushed towards Lian Ge in an instant.

"Squeak... squeak"

Following Lian Ge's outstretched arm, the mouse returned to Lian Ge's shoulder.

Withdrawing his hand and looking at the little white mouse on his shoulder, Lian Ge smiled slightly.

Turning his gaze, Lian Ge looked at the headless statue on the altar table and the head card of the statue wrapped in red cloth, his eyes paused slightly,

"excuse me."

After saying something softly, Lian Ge turned around, didn't stop at the Earth Temple, stepped out of the Earth Temple, and walked along the winding path.

……

Compared with the night, although the dense forest is still full of shade during the day, the rays of light passing through the gaps between the dense branches and leaves still illuminate the entire mountain forest.

Following the winding path stepped on by the pedestrians, Lian Ge kept moving forward, after passing the top of the mountain.

This is obviously a deliberate winding path that has become wider and wider.

Pausing slightly, Lian Ge took a look along the path leading down the mountain. In the valley at the end, there are some different houses and buildings, which are obviously a village.

Looking down at the village, Lian Ge's eyes slightly blurred.

Without staying any longer, Lian Ge walked straight down the mountain road towards the village down the mountain.

……

As we get closer to the village at the foot of the mountain, the scene of the village is more clearly presented in front of us.

Looking down from a height, a somewhat winding village road runs through the entire village, and the buildings in the village follow the winding village road and are distributed on both sides of the road in turn.

Lian Ge's side should be at the end of the village, and at the entrance of the village, there seems to be a vaguely connected road to the outside world.

……

Keep going down the winding mountain road, brushing over the bushes and weeds on both sides.

at last,

After a while, the bushes and weeds beside him disappeared, Lian Ge walked down the hillside and appeared in front of the road at the end of the village.

Slightly stopping, Lian Ge looked forward along the winding village road,

Judging from the different buildings on both sides of the village road, this is a mountain village that is not too closed.

But at this moment, the village seemed eerily quiet.

It was clearly early in the morning, but on the village road and in the fields, there was not a single person to be seen. Wherever one looked, the doors and windows of every house were tightly closed, and there was not even the sound of chickens crowing and dogs barking.

Gazing at the strange mountain village in front of him, Lian Ge's eyes slightly blurred.

Looking away, Lian Ge moved his footsteps again, followed the village road, and stepped into the village.

……

After scanning his eyes, Lian Ge randomly chose the nearest house and walked to it.

Walking to the door, I can vaguely hear some people walking around,

Stretching out his hand, Lian Ge knocked on the door of this house.

"Boom...boom...boom."

There was a sudden silence in the room after the knock on the door. It seemed that the people in the room stopped all actions immediately after hearing the knock on the door.

"Who?"

A vigilant voice came from behind the door.

"I'm a passing tourist. I'm thirsty. Can I ask for a glass of water?" Lian Ge said towards the house.

The voice fell,

The people in the house were obviously relieved, but they still didn't intend to open the door for Lian Ge.

"I'm sorry, it's not very convenient... Also, you should leave as soon as possible, our village has not been peaceful recently."

"Brother, it's convenient, I'll leave after drinking a glass of water."

Lian Ge said again.

After the voice fell, the people in the room seemed to hesitate and did not answer.

After a long time, footsteps sounded in the house,

"crunch..."

The door opened in response, and a middle-aged man in his forties appeared at the door.

After glancing at Lian Ge, he handed a paper cup to Lian Ge directly.

"Let's leave as soon as you drink the water." The middle-aged man said, hesitated for a while, and added,

"I won't hide it from you, our village is... haunted by ghosts, you'd better leave quickly, or you won't be able to leave!"

Chapter 134 Haunted

"Haunted?"

Lian Ge took the paper cup, took a sip of water, and looked at the middle-aged man pretending to be suspicious.

"I know you young people don't believe in such things, but let me tell you, it's weird." The middle-aged man shook his head and said.

"Since it's haunted, why don't you leave?" Lian Ge asked again pretending to be puzzled.

"Leave? Then you have to go." The middle-aged man shook his head again and said, "Okay, young man, drink the water, hurry up, you won't be able to leave after staying for a while."

With that said, the middle-aged man retreated into the room, reached out and closed the door again.

Lian Ge held the cup, and the doubts on his face gradually disappeared. He glanced at the newly closed gate, and turned back to look at the way he came.

Under the eyes of the sky, there is a majestic and strong Yin Qi lingering in this village, covering the whole village like a barrier, isolating the inside and outside of the village.

And the road that runs through the entire mountain village is not so quiet.

One by one, the ghosts who were either confused or resentful and hostile continued to breed, wandering on the roads of the village.

"Boom...boom...boom."

Looking back, Lian Ge turned around and knocked on the door of this house again.

"Young man, didn't I tell you to leave quickly?"

"Didn't you just say that the village is haunted by ghosts? I happen to know how to catch them." Lian Ge said calmly.

Hearing the sound, the room was suddenly quiet.

Immediately afterwards, some chaotic footsteps sounded,

"crunch..."

The middle-aged man opened the door again and looked Lian Ge up and down.

"Young man, this is not a joke, it's fatal. If what you said was a joke just now, I'll pretend I didn't hear it, and you can go away quickly."
