My Taoist Career

Chapter 47: Snake Spirit (2)

Views:

Not only was I petrified, but the legs of Su Rou, who was being held by Old Man Jiang together with me, became weak. If Old Man Jiang hadn't held him, he would have gotten out of this pit.

The others were calm, probably having seen the snake spirit before.

This pit is a bit deep. Looking from top to bottom, it is about 7 or 8 meters. In the pit, you can see a slightly exposed stone gate. There is a big stone directly opposite the stone gate, and this snake spirit is lying on it. On the big stone outside this stone gate.

I finally saw what a snake spirit is. It was a big snake. At this time, half of its body was still in the soil, but the exposed half was three times as long as me.

The color on its body is very weird, it is said to be white, and there are some faint light gray patterns. Those patterns look very strange, I can't describe it. Anyway, it feels like there is no trace, but it is vaguely shapeless. Words or totems.

What's even more shocking is that this big snake has a white bulge on its head, which takes up one-third of its head. At this time, the bulge seems to have a soft yet hard texture.

"It's so big..." As soon as Su Rou said "it's so big", Old Man Jiang immediately covered his mouth, and the lazy-looking snake spirit immediately turned his big head when he heard these words. After eating the crispy meat, his two red eyes looked at the crispy meat, his mouth opened, and the forked tongue kept swallowing.

The eyes of snakes are originally cold, and there is no trace of emotion at all. Just staring like this is terrifying enough.

Even though Surou was being held by Old Man Jiang, he couldn't help but succumbed and hung directly on Old Man Jiang.

The head is really as big as Shao Kei! ! This was my first feeling. I don’t know how to describe the second feeling. It is said that snakes feel cold to people, but I clearly felt that when the snake spirit looked at the crispy meat, there was a feeling of tension mixed with anger. transfer.

Surou's mouth was covered by Old Man Jiang. Of course he couldn't say anything more. After a stalemate like this for a while, the snake spirit slowly softened and lay down on the stone again.

"It won't attack people easily because it has cultivated spirituality! Don't say what it is. This is very taboo. I will explain the reason later. In short, if you anger it, even dozens of lives will not be enough. "Yes." Old Man Jiang gave the order, but he was actually saying it to me and Su Rou.

I was very surprised why I couldn't tell what it was, wasn't it just a snake? But since my cheap master has said that he will explain it later, I won’t ask. I only understand that my master will never harm me.

"Old Wu, what do you think?" My master turned to look at Mr. Wu. Since he was a snake charmer, he must have made a judgment at this time.

"I think what happened just now proves that it is just using the yin energy here to practice and has not been affected by evil things. Otherwise, it would not be so easy. You know the mountain spirits who are affected or go astray? Wild monsters are so scary! Or the kind of broken jars and smashed things that have been thought to be insurmountable... You are an expert on this. I am just speaking from this type of situation, because there are many things passed down from my ancestors. ….Anyway, as far as the records of this kind of situation are concerned, there are good and evil.” Mr. Old Wu spoke very awkwardly, and it could be seen that he was trying his best to avoid saying the word snake.

"Well, I've made a judgment about this early on. When someone dug it out today, it wasn't attacked. I knew what was going on. I mean, do you have any idea? Let it go?" Old Man Jiang said with a frown.

When the word "leave" was mentioned, the snake spirit reacted again. The big head turned around and gave Old Man Jiang a cold look. I finally couldn't help but speak: "Master, I think it means something like that. It’s like making fun of what you said.”

I was young at that time and could not use the word "disdain", so I could only try my best to tell them what I felt.

When Mr. Wu heard what I said, he was a little shocked and turned to look at me: "Can you feel its emotions?"

"I don't know, I just know that when it looked at Surou just now, I felt it was nervous and angry!" I told the truth, but when Surou heard the word "fire", his body, which had just been a little harder, became angry again. After softening, it was already fat, but now it looked more like a meat ball hanging on my master's body.

"Haha, did I recruit disciples randomly? Sanwa'er's spiritual sense is very strong, and it's normal to feel its emotions. You should tell me first, is there any way to make it leave?" Old Man Jiang was a little bit naive. Proud, he instinctively wanted to scratch his beard, but found that he had shaved it clean this morning. In order to cover up his embarrassment, he quickly changed the topic.

"There are ways, but they are all big troubles, and you know, if you are not careful, you will hurt it, and if you are not careful, it will also affect people. We in this industry try our best to avoid hurting its lineage. To be honest, it is broken. People's hard training is a great evil. I think we should use the old method we discussed before, right? If I take action, I will see it again unless I have to." Old Wu Boss looked a little worried. After thinking for a while, he finally Give me the answer, Master.

My master was silent for a while, and then he said, "Okay, let's do it."

I finally couldn't hold it any longer and asked, "Master, what should I do?"

Could it be that we need to drive a liberation truck to transport it away

"Hmm, let's negotiate!" Old Man Jiang rolled up his sleeves on his arms and said loudly, looking like a complete gangster.

Seeing my contemptuous look, Old Man Jiang rolled up my sleeves and said, "You can still run away? Just tie them up next to me." Hold up the scene)!"

Look, you are bullying a child again, and you will be punished as soon as you are punished. You are my master and I deserve it. But what does it have to do with my sleeves if I tie them up for you? It's a pity that I only had a good white cotton shirt, and it was ruined by this cheap master. When he did it, my clothes immediately became wrinkled.

"Pay attention to its mood. I'm too lazy to waste time. Anyway, this is your specialty. It's useless if you don't use it." After whispering in my ear, Old Man Jiang handed the crispy meat to another person to hold, and then he pulled it. I took a step forward.

My master and I took a step forward, but the snake spirit also reacted at the same time, standing up with a 'swish' sound. What's even more strange is that the scales around its neck can also stand up.

It was just a circle around the neck and a few scales, but it looked so majestic. I almost blurted out: "Master, this is a dragon! This is a dragon!"

But in the end I still held back, I couldn't embarrass my master, I had to hold on.

It stood up and was very close to the edge of the big pit. This kind of stare was very stressful, and I found that its body buried in the soil was also twisting, making the ground make noises. , probably coming out.

I was thinking desperately about Dong Cunrui's heroism in blowing up the bunker. I had transformed into him, so I managed to calm down, but Old Man Jiang was very calm.

He smiled and said very relaxedly: "It's a good thing that I negotiate with you. It means that I regard you as an equal being as a human being. What do you mean by this? You don't want to admit it?"

Old Man Jiang said this very easily, but from the strength of his hold on my hand, I knew that he was exerting force all over his body. As expected, the veins on his neck were slightly prominent.

Taking a closer look, I found that my master was exuding a power. This power directly overcame the oppression brought by the snake spirit and made people feel comfortable.

Sure enough, although the snake spirit did not lie down, it no longer struggled to come out. I was very confused about how the snake spirit could be buried in the soil and how it could still breathe. This is not scientific, but I also noticed that the soil layer under which it was buried has loosened, and it will definitely take a minute for it to come out.

At this time, I felt that the snake spirit's mood had calmed down, and was not as hostile and alert as before.

So he spoke in a low voice: "Just now it regarded us as class enemies. Now it is calm. Master, you can continue talking."

Old Man Jiang said 'hmm' and looked at the snake spirit with burning eyes. His eyes were calm but never flinched. He said loudly: "We want you to leave here. If you practice here, I think you can always do it." I feel that the things under the ground are not good and may bring disaster to this world. If you leave, we can think of a solution to the things under the ground. This can also be considered as a meritorious deed on your part. What do you think?"

The snake spirit didn't react, at least on the surface, it didn't appear to be reacting. I felt the snake spirit's emotions carefully, but I always felt that this time the emotions were very complicated and vague.

"Gua Wa'er, close your eyes, meditate, and focus all your attention on feeling it. The idea that I am communicating and talking to it must exist in your mind. You can only have this idea, and do so immediately. "Old man Jiang whispered in my ear.

He was actually teaching me the simplest cultivation requirements of Taoism, Cunsi, but at that time he didn’t point it out. This is also Old Man Jiang’s style. Just do whatever you want. There is no need to explain the rules first. What do I want to do, but it puts pressure on people.

When Old Man Jiang said that, I immediately closed my eyes, but meditation was too difficult for a kid like me, so I could only rely on the meditation formula taught by Old Man Jiang. I took a deep breath and began to meditate in my heart. Silently recited the meditation mantra. After reciting it a few times, the feeling of emptiness in my whole soul came again.

At this time, I desperately thought about the image of the snake spirit, and then imagined it sitting in front of me, and we were roasting corn and talking at the same time.

The picture in my mind is a bit weird, a big snake sitting with me and roasting corn, but forgive me for being a seven-year-old child, this is the situation that I think is more suitable for conversation.

Gradually, I felt clearer and clearer emotions. That feeling was very strange. It really didn’t say anything, but I knew exactly what it was thinking, as if it was really talking to me. .

I opened my eyes suddenly, because suddenly my head felt like it was going to explode. I opened my mouth and said to Old Man Jiang: "Master, it said, it trains on its own, and others have their own cause and effect. All this has its own cause and effect." What does it have to do with it?”

After saying that, I was stunned. Is this something that I can say at my level
