I'm finally certain now that the strange god my grandfather used to worship was the Beast God!
No wonder I felt very familiar with the name and mark of the Beast God from the very beginning; the source was actually here!
My grandfather worshipped the Beast God when I was very young.
Similarly, under the influence of my grandfather, I also came into contact with the Beast God at a very young age.
Although it is just an image, gods are inherently spiritual. As long as they receive incense offerings, even such an inconspicuous image will possess boundless power.
"What are you thinking about, Xiaoyan!"
The old lady saw me staring blankly and asked me with a smile.
I was startled and quickly said it was nothing, I just missed my grandfather.
Because in my reconstructed memory, I not only had one grandmother, but also my grandfather, and the key point is that both of them were well-known feng shui masters.
But when I entered the courtyard, I didn't see any trace of my grandfather, so I boldly guessed that my grandfather must have gone out.
"Silly child, it'll be fine once it gets dark! There are a lot of demons and monsters around here, so you'd better lock the door quickly and make sure they don't get in!"
At this point, the old lady's expression also became serious.
Then, the old lady shakily picked up the kitten and, with my help, walked into the house.
When I helped the old lady back into the house, I suddenly realized that it was getting dark.
The sudden change made my heart tremble slightly, because I remembered that it hadn't been long since dawn.
Normally it should be around three o'clock now, but at this moment, the sun is almost setting.
I turned my gaze to the clock in the room, and my pupils contracted slightly. At that moment, I finally understood what was going on.
It turns out that time seems to speed up once you enter this place.
The hour hand of the clock on the wall was spinning at an extremely fast speed. Looking at this frequency, I boldly guessed that the flow of time here was about four times the normal speed.
No wonder it got dark so quickly; time seemed to be accelerating!
"Alright, Yiyi, you can hold her for now, and remember to close the door!"
The old lady sat back inside and then tossed the kitten to me.
"And what about my grandfather?"
I couldn't help but ask.
"Your grandfather will definitely be back when the time comes!"
The old lady's smile became quite stiff, and her overall complexion became extremely poor.
I couldn't help but feel a slight tremor in my heart; I had a feeling that something was not quite right.
But I still picked up the kitten and, following the old lady's instructions, walked to the door.
I am very familiar with the fence at the gate; I built it with my grandfather when I was a child.
I picked up the kitten with one hand and touched the mud with the other; that familiar touch made me feel a little dazed.
I used one hand to forcefully block the fence gate. This is what the gate looked like when I was a child. It wasn't the kind that could be locked; it was just a few pieces of fence that were used for a makeshift solution.
After I finished doing all this, I wiped the sweat from my forehead and turned back to look at the old lady inside the house.
My brain is working at lightning speed; I believe this is a test for me.
I keep recalling what Yiyi said to me when we left.
I still remember that before leaving, I suggested we leave right now. Yiyi hesitated for a moment, but after thinking about it, she agreed.
Based on the information I have so far, the reason the girl initially refused was because she would lose a lot of power during the day.
Hesitation signifies that the girl has weighed the pros and cons.
"I get it! The Beast God Temple during the day and the Beast God Temple at night are completely different places! For me, the Beast God Temple during the day is the easiest to crack!"
I closed my eyes and kept thinking about the whole story. Finally, I understood!
Now that makes sense, everything makes sense, which explains why the girl hesitated, and then agreed.
Because the girl is gambling! She's betting that I can solve the mystery!
As for why the girl wasn't there, if you had explained it to me clearly from the beginning, I guess there's some kind of restriction in the entire manor or the entire area.
Just like rules, rules cannot be broken at will.
Just like last night when the head of the Huang family tried to attack me, no matter how strong he was, he couldn't harm me.
He had no choice but to resort to such underhanded methods.
In other words, the same applies to this temple of the beast god.
During the daytime, in the Beast God Temple, I was the easiest to pass the test.
I glanced at the clock on the wall again.
I remembered that when I was little, we didn't have this clock at home!
The real clock should be kept in my grandfather's bedroom!
Damn DJ! I finally know the problem!
After putting the kitten down, I rushed back and saw the clock on the cupboard, which was still ticking away.
I leaped down, snatched the clock off, and adjusted it.
But to my surprise, the clock started running faster and faster, and when I saw this, my expression turned a little grim.
It seems things are a bit more complicated than I thought.
Since the adjustment is wrong, let's put it back in its original position!
I remember that the clock was originally in my grandfather's room. I carried the clock and went straight into my grandfather's room.
As soon as I went inside, a sense of vicissitude immediately overwhelmed me, and tears streamed down my face uncontrollably.
Nothing in the room changed except for the clock.
At that moment, I thought of my grandfather again. Memories of my grandfather flooded back into my mind, this time not as a distortion of memories.
It's not so much about me, but rather my longing for my grandfather.
At that moment, I didn't even want to leave. I wanted to stay and relive that kind of family affection from back then.
As it grew darker outside, I quickly placed the watch I was holding on the counter.
This counter is still the same as I remember it. When I was little, this clock always sat on top of this counter.
After I put it back in its original position based on my memory, I suddenly felt time pause for a moment.
Then the clock returned to normal, and I felt that time had returned to normal.
At that moment, the kitten followed me into the room, meowing at me.
Although I couldn't understand what it was saying, judging from the kitten's behavior, I must have corrected the timing.
