In my cloth bag, there are 5 "immortal guides", a stack of talismans, a peach wood sword, and a magic weapon used as an array eye - a copper coin given to me by my uncle.
The string of agarwood is still on my wrist, and the tiger claw is still hanging on my neck.
Listening to the howling wind outside, I was calculating my capital, which could save my life and Brother Sheng's at the critical moment.
"Sanwa'er, you have learned the magic of inviting gods, but you can't use it easily. Your spiritual sense is too strong. I'm afraid you will become a lunatic." Master's words still ring in my ears, but the magic of summoning gods is my greatest asset. Bar.
I don't know if I am doing this right or wrong, and what consequences it will bring. This night, my heart is a little confused.
Early the next morning, Master did not go out. He was looking at a map carefully and marked something on the map. I walked gently to Master's side and asked, "Master, aren't you going out today?"
"The map has been completed. There is no need to take risks in that village anymore." The master looked at the map seriously and said to me casually.
"Master, is this map very important?" I said absently. In fact, I had a lot to say to Master, but I didn't know how to speak, so I could only talk about other things.
"Yes, it's very important. This is the key to finding the old village chief!" The master continued to mark something with a red pen. Unfortunately, I didn't know anything about Xiangzi Pulse. I just felt that what the master marked had something to do with Feng Shui, but I didn't understand.
"Master, why did you say that you will start taking action after today?" I asked pretending not to care. After all, it is related to the safety of me and Brother Sheng. I must ask clearly. It is really too dangerous, even if I lose Brother Sheng. , I won’t go either.
"This is a period of time. Today is the 9th day. There are still 6 days left. On the last day, he will definitely appear. It is the strongest and weakest time. We will not fight an unprepared battle. 6 days. Enough preparation." Master said.
"Master, are these six days safe?" I asked cautiously.
"When we go on a mission, no day can be said to be safe." Master replied casually, and then concentrated on his map.
I walked out and winked at Brother Sheng, which meant that the action should continue and we would set off in a few minutes.
A few minutes later, Brother Sheng and I went out separately. After all, people can't stay locked in the house all day long. In this remote village, people here often still go for a walk nearby.
Brother Sheng and I just pretended to be walking and went out separately.
We agreed to meet at the foot of the mountain.
————————————————————————————
Destiny is a charming guy. Its charm is that you can never see its face clearly, but you always have expectations and fantasies about it, because it is something that belongs to you, is unique, and does not repeat itself. You are reluctant to put even the slightest bit of bad things into it, even though it is sometimes a bad guy and it makes you miserable.
That day, fate played another joke on me, because less than half an hour after I left, reinforcements arrived. Among them were some people who I cared about day and night. More importantly, they brought a piece of news that was very important to me. I missed the important news with them, and Brother Sheng also missed it with them.
This is fate. Even in such a small village, the two of us who left separately could miss a group of people.
Fate does not blink when it causes tragedy. It has no emotions.
Twenty minutes after we went out, Brother Sheng and I met at the foot of the mountain. He looked very serious, and so did I. I dug out the yellow cloth bag hidden under my clothes, slung it around my body, and then took it out. A bundle of thin rope.
This is really just a bundle of thin ropes. Since I don’t have Master’s ability to tie a soul-locking knot, I’ll use the stupidest method to tie the two of us together.
I tied the rope around my waist very strongly, and then tied it around Brother Sheng's waist. I said to him: "This rope is what I used to make fun of. It is a special forces rope, very strong."
Brother Sheng nodded, and he told me seriously: "This is my wish, but I want you to take the risk with me. If there is really danger, I am willing to die. You must run, don't let me down."
"They won't die." I said calmly, but there was an indescribable depression in my heart.
After dividing the anti-worm medicine packets and tightening my trouser legs, I took off the agarwood on my hand, tore it off again, took out two pills, and put the rest into a yellow cloth bag.
"Wearing this thing, the effect is not too strong. Let's each put one in our mouths. Don't let me swallow it. The mist has the ability to confuse people."
"I know." Brother Sheng threw it into his mouth like a candy pill, his attitude was more relaxed than mine. I always felt that Brother Sheng felt like he was risking his own life.
All preparations were done, and I took Brother Sheng into the heavy fog.
In the mist, I still feel like that, the road is blurry, but because of the agarwood beads in my mouth, my heart is extraordinarily calm. I don't think about anything else, I just think that if I take one more step, I will be closer to fulfilling my promise. further.
I was in front and Brother Sheng was behind. We walked quietly. When I really couldn't see the road clearly, I lit the first 'immortal guide'.
The fairy guide is a good thing. In Taoism, it is more effective than the compass, because the compass is affected by the magnetic field, but this fairy guide cannot. Because of the relationship between the talisman above, the smoke it emits will only go towards the exit. The place is floating.
I have never been very clear about the principle of the fairy guide. To be honest, I didn’t know the principle of the talisman on it. It wasn’t until a long time later that I met a guy who could draw the fairy guide. He told me: “Actually, to be honest, Yes, the Immortal Guiding Talisman is actually a Yang-following Talisman, which means that it will point to a place with sunshine and Yang energy. When you get to such a place, you will naturally get out of the maze of Yin energy. This is our Taoist It’s a prop, it’s used to deal with those things. If you are a road idiot, it won’t be very useful for finding your way.”
According to the principle of fairy guidance, it certainly works well in this place. Except for the wind when we were approaching the top of the mountain, which caused a little trouble for Brother Sheng and I, we actually climbed to the top of the mountain without any danger.
Once born, twice familiar, is this the principle
I treasured the remaining half of the immortal guides, stood on the top of the mountain, and said to Brother Sheng: "In that fog, there are things that are scary to normal people. Brother Sheng, can you survive it?" I'm not like Master, who can seal off the five senses, so I'm sorry, I can't let you close your eyes and walk out when you open them again."
Brother Sheng didn't react at all. He just stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the river at the bottom of the mountain that was unclear. The village was shrouded in fog, but the river was not there. Standing on the top of the mountain, you could see it.
"Brother Sheng?" I called out, and Brother Sheng finally reacted, then turned to me and said, "What should I do? Can I walk through that fog?"
"First, don't be afraid. Second, it will be more vicious to you. Third, if it doesn't work anymore, just call me loudly. I will always walk in front of you." I said simply.
Brother Sheng looked at me and said, "I'll try not to be a burden to you."
The way down the mountain was of course smooth. Although Master told me that every day we were there was dangerous, but I still got a vague message that these 6 days should be safe. Less than half a month later, it was not safe on that day. Bar
Maybe so. After all, we are the first people to visit this dead village in decades. Who knows the real situation
15 days? In fact, I have already guessed how tragic it is for the villagers. In the past few decades, even if they have become ghosts, they have been living the horrific fifteen days over and over again.
The greatest torture is this. You may not be afraid of pain or difficulties, but will you be afraid of non-stop, repeated pain and difficulties? Just when you think you are relieved, it starts again!
Perhaps the reincarnation of the human world is also like this, so we need to cultivate a delicate heart to break through and be liberated.
In my wild thoughts, Brother Sheng and I have entered the fog. I did not look back at Brother Sheng. Maybe my worried glance at this time will also become his psychological pressure. The more courage he needs now, the better.
It was still the howling of ghosts and wolves. When their voices sounded, I clearly felt that Brother Sheng behind me trembled. But just for a moment, I felt that the person behind me became firm. That firm aura made me If you can feel it, how much support should you have in your heart
Human potential is unlimited, of course, this requires a seed to stimulate. The teacher's last wish was unintentionally the seed in Brother Sheng's heart.
There were still those terrifying ghosts, and it was still a hellish scene. When we stepped out, I felt the rope tied around my body tighten. When I turned around, I saw Brother Sheng sitting on the ground.
I didn't explore Brother Sheng's psychology. I just looked at him and said, "You've come out, haven't you?"
"Yes, it won't be scary anymore if you come out." Brother Sheng took a few deep breaths and stood up.
"After seeing these, will you change from a scientist to a superstitious person?" I said jokingly, thinking of that terrifying silent world, I needed a relaxed atmosphere to relieve the pressure in my heart, even though Once we got here, everything went smoothly.
"No, neurosis also belongs to the category of science, doesn't it? I can't guarantee that what I just saw is the world seen by neurotic patients. This has research value. Maybe, I can become a medical scientist in the future." Brother Sheng actually said Occasionally very humorous.
"Let's go into the village. The good news is that we got here. The bad news is that to get to that river, your destination, you need to pass through this village." I wanted to laugh, but the last expression was a frown. No control.
