The fact that they didn't catch up meant there must be an ambush at the foot of the mountain.

Officer Liu really hoped that the middle-aged man in front of him was really his master.

The sanity he had just regained told him that Dahe Guangming Temple was too strange and full of doubts, so he couldn't believe it easily.

Lulu called out a few times, but the other party not only didn't come over, but instead took a few steps back. She was so anxious that she jumped up and down.

"Your master's head is bleeding, and you just stand there and watch him die? Oh, I get it, you're in cahoots with those monks!"

After she finished speaking, she carried the unconscious middle-aged man on her back, turned around and ran into the mountains.

Officer Liu subconsciously wanted to catch up, but there were a few more thudding sounds above his head.

Then, a carrot fell from the sky and hit Lulu on the head with a thud.

The short-haired woman had a big bump on her head and was grimacing in pain.

Officer Liu saw her take something out of her arms and try to throw it up.

Before the thing was thrown out, several carrots fell down.

There are many dense trees on the back mountain. No matter how the deer hide, they will be eaten by the carrots.

Not long after, she also rolled her eyes and fell to the ground.

"Boom—"

"Boom—"

No one knew what the fat monk and his two companions were doing, so they never caught up with us.

In the dimly lit woods, apart from the series of thudding sounds, no other sound could be heard.

The overly strange environment made Officer Liu nervous.

With a glimmer of hope, he took off his bag to protect his head and walked carefully towards the two unconscious people.

The middle-aged man was wearing a tattered police uniform covered in blood. Judging from the marks on his clothes, the owner of the clothes must have been stabbed several times by someone surrounding him.

Officer Liu felt very disappointed.

He did not give up, thinking of the knife wound in the abdomen that his master had suffered while working a few years ago.

Officer Liu lifted up the hem of the man's shirt and looked at his abdomen.

There are no old scars on the smooth and flat belly.

This is not his master. His master is probably really gone.

Officer Liu's eyes instantly turned red. He wanted to take a photo and send it to his colleague, but when he reached out, he found that his phone was missing.

How come the thieves in this temple are so good at stealing?

Officer Liu was deeply distressed by the successive blows. Seeing his master's clothes, his eyes began to well up again.

He took a few deep breaths and turned to look at the short-haired woman beside him.

Since the two of them appeared together, they might all be fakes. Or maybe Lu Yuanyou was fine and was just deceived by the fake police.

"Dong—dong—"

Officer Liu was hesitating when the strange sound appeared again.

He took out his water gun and was about to look up to see what was going on when he felt a sudden pain on his head and his vision went black.

Before he lost consciousness, he saw a little white rabbit in a pink princess dress, hiding behind the leaves and looking at him.

An idea popped up in Officer Liu's dizzy mind.

What a cute little rabbit.

Wait, why would a rabbit hit someone with a carrot?

————

When Officer Liu woke up again, the dense forest around him was no longer there.

His head still felt a sharp pain from time to time. Officer Liu struggled to get up, but found himself entangled in a rope.

This should be a cave, the entrance of which is blocked by a large rock. The light inside the cave is dim, and the two flashlights placed on the ground are the main source of light.

Opposite him, several people were lying in a mess.

The fat monk, the monk Fachu, the monk Fawei, the fake policeman disguised as his master, and the short-haired woman Lu Yuanyou whose identity is questionable.

In addition, there was a young monk.

Officer Liu remembered that when he was led into the temple by the fat monk, he noticed that the crowd kept looking in one direction from time to time.

The person being stared at was a handsome monk at least 1.9 meters tall, with an upright posture and a gloomy expression.

Officer Liu initially thought his attackers were monks from Dahe Guangming Temple, but he didn't expect there was another group hiding in the woods, so he arrested them all.

As time passed, the six tied-up people woke up one after another, all looking around in confusion.

When the first person just woke up, Officer Liu, who was alone and helpless, decisively closed his eyes and pretended to be unconscious.

Everyone was silent for a while, and Monk Fawei lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Supervisor, what knocked us out?"

The fat monk sighed, "I don't know, it seems to be some kind of hidden weapon."

The short-haired woman interrupted, "Is it a stone sculpture of a carrot?"

The fat monk looked at her in confusion. "No, it's more like a stone or a slingshot. That person is very skilled in using hidden weapons. The stones he throws can easily embed themselves into the tree. As far as I know, the only one in the entire temple who can do this without chanting or casting spells is Junior Brother Fachen."

The short-haired woman turned her body to the side, revealing Chen Yanli who was lying on the ground and was covered by her.

The fat monk was stunned. "Junior brother, what are you doing in the back mountain?"

Chen Yanli's face was gloomy, and there was a wound on his forehead. It seemed that he was knocked unconscious and sent here.

The fat monk asked several times, but Junior Brother Fachen didn't respond. His dark eyes stared straight at his mouth, as if trying to read his lips.

Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Yanli's face became darker and darker. Finally, he glared at them fiercely, turned his head and ignored them.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Monk Fachu stepped out to smooth things over. "Brother can't hear us, and he can't lip-read. Since he can't type, let's not embarrass him."

The short-haired woman reacted the fastest, rubbing a question mark on the ground with the tip of her shoe.

Chen Yanli seemed to think that this was too stupid and ignored her.

Monk Fachen has always had this kind of temper, and no one is surprised.

Since he was also tied here, the attack just now probably had nothing to do with him.

The fat monk looked around and made sure no one was around. He whispered, "Brother Sha, what are you doing..."

The fake police officer said coldly: "He was knocked unconscious by the carrot stone sculpture."
