Master and I looked at each other.
You can't say that this young man is impolite, it just feels a little weird.
The Daxing shaman gave a bitter smile and whispered to us: "The most talented young men in this village are all practicing with the shaman. Apart from practicing, they don't understand the ways of the world and are inevitably arrogant. Like Qiangzi, they always have to It doesn’t matter if you go to that stone cave to polish your character. That’s how I came here at that time.”
Has Qiangzi also been to that cave? It's okay to stay there in fear every day. The most important thing is that I can only face the blue sky and white sun all day long, and the loneliness of the vast mountains... But, is Qiangzi's temper... really the same as that phantom? related
Master and I were both silent at the same time. After all, it was the matter of someone else's village. We just followed the Daxing wizard and silently walked up the stairs of this stilted building.
At this moment, it is already afternoon... Under the cliff, the mountains in the distance are covered with mist inexplicably... I am confused, just like I have been walking all the way to this day, but I can't see my future more and more clearly.
In silence, we walked up the corridor of the stilted building. The boy did not close the door after entering the house... and as soon as he entered the door, there was a windowless hall. In the dim hall, a strange totem portrait was enshrined. There are two futons in front of the totem portrait, but nothing else.
Then there were two doors on the left and one on the right behind the hall. As soon as Daxing Dasha walked in, he bowed respectfully to the portrait of the totem.
As Taoists, Master and I obviously don't have the right to worship such a totem, but we can't wander in and out, so we can only wait quietly. Out of boredom, I really want to see clearly what this totem image is? Is it another powerful monster from "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"? But the light in the room was dim, and Daxing Wizard quickly finished paying homage... then turned around and led us into the door on the left.
In the end, I didn't see clearly what the totem image was.
After entering the room, there was finally a little light. The first thing I saw was the most powerful witch in this village, the 21st generation witch - Bu Deng.
He is a skinny old man with a sickly yellow complexion. He is wearing a typical shaman robe, but the color is darkened by washing, and his gray hair is tied into a small braid on the top of his head. In addition, his head is There is no hair on the sides.
He doesn't have a beard, but his eyebrows are very long... His whole appearance is like seeing flowers in a fog, but you can vaguely feel that he is extraordinary.
It's just extraordinary, nothing outstanding, nothing that makes people feel powerful and hard to mess with.
The only thing that makes people feel a little powerful is the complex bone chain he wears... Although it is polished very primitively, it gives people the cold light of the fangs in the mouth of a ferocious beast.
After we came in, Daxing Dasha first put Qiangzi on the ground, then bowed respectfully to Budeng, and then stepped aside. Master and I used Taoist etiquette to bow to Budeng. , also silently stepped aside.
The great witch Buden closed his eyes and showed no reaction. I stood next to the master and quietly looked at the room.
The furnishings of this room are very simple, that is, except for a futon, there is not even a bed. The Great Witch Buden is sitting on the only futon in this room.
But the furnishings of this room are complicated... Because the room is filled with many bottles and cans, I suddenly felt a familiar feeling. Isn't it the same as the room in Ruxue in Yueyan Miao Village?
I didn't dare to think too much about Ruxue. Even if I wasn't afraid of the pain of my soul, I was still afraid of losing my composure in the room of the Great Witch Budeng... Besides, I was quickly attracted by the 'difference' of these bottles. , because Ruxue’s bottles and jars should be filled with things related to voodoo, there may be voodoo insects, various voodoo medicines and the like.
But the bottles and jars in the witch's room revealed another feeling. I felt a void, but with an alternative sense of life.
And there is only one thing that can give me such a feeling, and that is - the spirit body! Could it be that these bottles and jars contain spirits? I tilted my head, wanting to feel it carefully, but found that the earthenware jar I was focusing on seemed to feel my 'attention', and there was a rebound emotion in it, which made me immediately dare not pay attention.
It's not that I'm afraid of the spirit in the jar, but I think it's a bit rude to 'peep' like this in the great witch Budeng's room.
In this way, I could only move my eyes to the window of the room. Outside the small window, there was a blue sky with some faint clouds passing by. In the distance of the blue sky, there were patches of distant mountains, and the close-up view was the swaying branches of the big trees. ... Such a window view actually has a sense of tranquility, remoteness and vicissitudes of life, which makes people feel relaxed and peaceful at once.
Just as I was admiring the view from the window, the Great Witch Budeng suddenly opened his eyes.
He said nothing, did nothing... he just opened his eyes silently, but everyone in the room noticed this change. What kind of aura is this? Will it have such an influence on people
However, what I saw was a pair of calm and profound eyes, not the kind of depth with outstanding mental power, but the kind of depth formed by the eyes being really calm, unusually settled, but full of many things.
In addition, I have a strange feeling that under these calm and deep eyes, there is another pair of eyes looking at me.
The more I looked, the more I couldn't look away. Even though I knew it was rude, I was attracted by such a pair of eyes and wanted to understand, what was it that was still looking at me
"I'm sorry. I had some enlightenment just now, so I studied for a while." But the Great Witch Bu Deng seemed not to give me such a chance anymore. He suddenly gave me a meaningful look and continued to speak to me in a calm and polite tone. I said this to my master.
"I don't dare, and I haven't waited long." Faced with such a person, Master also put away his usual bohemian attitude and became polite and steady.
"Sit down." Great Witch Budeng simply bowed to Master and me, and then asked us to sit down.
There were no other futons in the room, only the floor that exuded a quaint atmosphere but was fast. Master and I sat down on this floor without shirk, but the Daxing Wizard stood aside respectfully and did not dare to sit down.
Bu Deng glanced at Daxing Great Witch and said calmly: "You don't have to be so formal. Sit down."
As soon as he said this, Daxing Great Witch quickly sat down, sitting upright. Seeing how uncomfortable he was, sitting was better than standing.
However, even though I was thinking so relaxedly, in my heart I inexplicably classified the Great Witch Buden in front of me as being on the same level as Sister Jenny. I don’t know why I met her like this for the first time. , and made such a judgment.
After everyone sat down, Great Wizard Budeng spoke slowly: "Since the guests are here, we have to entertain them. But in my haste, I didn't even prepare a cup of mountain spring. Please forgive me."
How could Master and I care about this? Even when it comes to saying no... I can feel that although the great wizard Bu Deng is polite in his words, he also has the pride of an expert. And I think all experts have some weird tempers. How can we care about this? I offended you unintentionally and you don’t even know what happened
"Is this your apprentice?" Great Witch Bu Deng's mind seemed to be jumping very fast. Just now he was talking about rude things, but the next moment the topic shifted to me and he started asking about my master.
"It's my apprentice." The master answered directly.
"The spiritual sense is very powerful, but..." Great Witch Bu Deng frowned slightly, looked at me a few times, and then said: "It should not be a normal increase in spiritual sense, but I can't see clearly. But... A good talent, no matter which lineage he cultivates, this kind of talent is good."
Of course it's not normal. There is a Taoist boy in my soul who will pop out and replace him at any time. How can he be normal? It's more powerful than splitting hundreds of personalities with split personality!
The master didn't want to tell me directly about my situation, but he finally said: "There are indeed some complicated things in my apprentice's life, but he is a good young man. As a master, I am proud of him."
Even though they were polite words, I could feel that there was a trace of pride in Master's words. He rarely praised me so directly in front of outsiders, but such a simple sentence made my heart surge with warmth. "Master did it for me." Proud, I feel like my father is proud of me. As a junior, what can be more affirmative than this sentence
However, Great Witch Bu Deng didn't pay much attention. He just nodded lightly and said "Huh", and then his eyes fell on Qiangzi.
This time, unlike the other people he looked at lightly, he looked at Qiangzi for a long time, and then turned around and asked Daxing the Great Witch: "How long have you been unconscious?"
The words were still calm, and I couldn't even feel any emotion. But for some reason, I saw Daxing Dasha sitting next to me suddenly sweating all over his forehead, as if he was under great pressure. generally.
After a long time, I managed to squeeze out a few days through my teeth: "I was unconscious for less than a day."
