After leaving the village, the temperature was obviously lower. After all, it was close to the lake and it was a place where yin energy gathered.
The difference is that after the operation of the large array, the haze that has shrouded this place and Lake Village all year round has dissipated, and this place has become a normal gathering place for ghosts.
Although the haze has cleared, the visibility this night is not very high. I don’t know when, the thin clouds gradually covered the moon. Outside the lake village without street lights, the road leading to the Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts is almost It's like being unable to see your fingers.
I didn't bring a flashlight, and neither did Jiang Yi, but he walked very calmly step by step and very fast. It felt like he was no different from walking during the day, or that he was very familiar with this place.
On the contrary, I stumbled a bit.
"You are a Taoist priest and a cultivator. You don't have to rely on your eyes to walk at night." Jiang Yi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
I tripped just now and almost fell. Suddenly I heard Jiang Yi say that. I was stunned and subconsciously said: "I don't rely on my eyes. What should I rely on? Do I rely on my nose?"
"Spiritual sense, you can rely on your spiritual sense to make every step. The method is not to rely on your eyes to see subconsciously. Sometimes ordinary people can occasionally achieve this level. This is a good way to temper your spiritual sense." Jiang Yi said this to me.
Jiang Yi is guiding me in my practice? Although he said this kind of guidance as if he was still broadcasting a piece of news, I didn't react for a long time.
By the time I understood what he meant, he had already walked far away, and looking at his somewhat blurry back in the dark night, I felt more and more unable to see through this person.
The dangerous feeling in my heart still didn't dissipate, but I subconsciously used the method he said to move around. It was very uncomfortable at first, but later on, my walking became smoother and smoother. Although the speed was not as fast as Jiang Yi's, I still couldn't get used to it. It's better than seeing it with my eyes and stumbling too much along the way.
When I walked to the lake shore, Jiang Yi was already waiting there. Because he deliberately used his spiritual sense, by the time I arrived, such a short journey made me feel mentally exhausted.
"Very good. As expected, your spiritual sense is excellent. You can adapt to it so quickly." Jiang Yi commented like this. There was still no expression on his face, so I really couldn't feel that he was praising me.
I smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer the conversation. I always felt that there was a huge gap between him and me, and the atmosphere of this kind of conversation was not suitable for me and him.
Fortunately, Jiang Yi didn't care about what I had to say. He just opened the awning of the boat that was parked on the lake shore and jumped on the boat. I scratched my numb head and jumped on too.
I know why my scalp is numb, because the dangerous feeling has become more and more intense, so that my whole scalp starts to feel numb.
"I don't know how to row, what should I do?" I asked on the boat. In fact, I could barely row if I was asked to row. After all, when Ji Feng taught Hui Gen'er, I was watching from the side, and I subconsciously delayed it. .
Jiang Yi was silent, took off his coat, picked up the pole, and moved the boat gently towards the shore, and the boat floated out.
"I can." He stepped onto the bow of the boat, rowing with ease.
"It turns out that the boss is very talented." I added casually. I always felt that this atmosphere was embarrassing and dangerous. Saying something could make me relax.
"As you live longer, you will always know more things. You can show me the way and take me directly to the place where you fought." Jiang Yi answered me simply.
"Boss, I actually want to ask, what are you going to do there?" In fact, I really want to ask why Jiang Yi is so stubborn and wants me to take him to the core of the Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts.
"Look." Jiang Yiyi said two words.
Damn it, I couldn't help but curse in my heart. I don't know why I started to feel inexplicably irritable. I have never been so irritable every time I faced danger before.
The boat rowed on the water, and Jiang Yi and I fell silent at the same time. Except for my occasional voice pointing the way, the entire lake was quiet with only the sound of wind. The thin clouds covering the moon dispersed at some point, and the moonlight was faint. Sprinkled on the entire lake, swimming with the water waves.
The Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts, which has always been equated with danger, finally showed me its tender and beautiful side after the war. Unfortunately, it was Jiang Yi and I who were boating on the lake that night, not the woman I dreamed of. — Like snow.
Thinking of Ruxue, I was a little crazy... Time passed by in a hurry, and I suddenly couldn't remember how long it had been since I said goodbye to her. It was like Hui Gen'er at that time couldn't answer how many years Uncle Hui had been missing. .
No matter how long we have been apart, some people still feel as familiar as yesterday. Some people have always been around, but they can't get into their hearts, and they feel as strange as ever.
When will I be able to listen to Ruxue singing "Flying Light" in my ear again? The corners of my mouth are bitter, I can't get it when I think about it, and I can't do it when I think about it. Now, I understand this sentence more deeply.
I don’t know how long it took, but in a semi-trance, I gave Jiang Yi directions, and unexpectedly arrived at the natural formation of Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts. After the turbulent battle before, there was actually something inside this natural formation. There is no difference between the calm and the outside, except that the yin energy is heavier, making people feel colder.
A few days later, when I came here again, I felt like I was in another world, in heaven and on earth.
"Where should we go to the boundary monument?" Jiang Yi asked again.
I came back to my senses and quickly showed Jiang Yi the way. At this time, inexplicably, my stomach began to spasm, and I felt like vomiting. I endured the discomfort and managed to maintain calm on the surface. This was the first time. Once, this feeling of danger caused my body to react.
I understand very well that this is the feeling of fear. I am so scared that I want to vomit
The boat rowed silently on the water, and the swaying water reflected the moonlight. If a drop of water happened to float by my face, would it reflect my face to the point of being pale with fear, and my eyes to the point of extreme fear
I took deep breaths and forced myself to calm down. At this time, there is no use panicking. At least I should know where this danger comes from
Could it be that there is something else in the Lake of Ghosts that threatens my existence? So the closer I get to this place, the more scared I get
No, it's impossible. There will definitely not be such big loopholes in the grand formation set up by Master, and what kind of existence can be hidden under Master's nose for so long
To put it ten thousand steps back, even if my master is not aware of his remnant soul, who is next to me? He is the boss of the mysterious department and the rumored being closest to the Earth Immortal Jiang Yi. He also said, what is the danger of being with him
If this is the case, then there is only one possibility. My eyes fell on the back of Jiang Yi who was rowing - the danger came from him.
Thinking of this, my hands trembled a little. I reluctantly took out a cigarette from my trouser pocket, lit one with some shaking, and then took a deep breath. When the blue smoke entered my lungs with a paralyzing effect, After going around in a circle, my restless heart temporarily succumbed to the comfort brought by the smoke.
"As a cultivator, even if you drink occasionally, you shouldn't smoke. What benefit does this have to your practice?" Jiang Yi didn't look back, but his voice reached my ears clearly.
"Huh?" I subconsciously shook my hands as I was deep in thought, and almost dropped the cigarette in my hands. I didn't realize what Jiang Yi was saying for a moment.
"Forget it, Lao Li's lineage never plays cards according to the rules, let alone deliberately restrains itself. Just like your master, I told him several times not to smoke that dry cigarette, but he still insisted on me, saying that he was not practicing well. It means that you don’t understand all kinds of things in the world. If you don’t understand, you can’t really restrain yourself. What kind of fallacy is this? Do you have to eat, drink, whore, gamble, and try it one by one to truly restrain yourself? I asked him this at the time, but you Guess what he said? He said that it’s not a bad idea. As long as the moral bottom line in your heart is set so low and you feel that you will be tempted by eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, then you might as well experience it once and fall once. If you can’t let go, you will sink. This is He was born with no predestined relationship with cultivation. If he doesn't give up completely, his heart has been tempered. He is not subject to this temptation, so he doesn't have to experience it. This is a spontaneous restraint." Jiang Yi said, this time his voice no longer sounded like a broadcaster News, but with a little bit of emotion, but I can't tell what the emotion is.
How can I tell the difference? I'm already stupid. This is the first time I've seen Jiang Yi say so many personal things besides official business. What does that mean
What's more, I was just guessing that the danger came from Jiang Yi.
Just when I was in a daze, Jiang Yi suddenly said: "We're here."
The boat had docked unknowingly, but Jiang Yi seemed to just want to talk and didn't care what my response would be. His reaction was as if he had never said that.
