Old Fogey Goes Down The Mountain

Chapter 2: It is steep and desolate, and it is difficult for mortals to climb

Wei Xi raised his eyebrows and looked at the offerings he had received.

The corpse looked very strange. He was dressed in tattered clothes, with half of the sleeves missing from his top and half of the bottom of his trousers. He was clearly too poor to cover his body. His exposed arms and legs were white and tender. .

A fresh soul was sitting limply on the head of his body, which was too dead to die. He heard the movement from the outside world, but his response was very slow, and he raised his head slowly for a long time.

Wei Xi was taken aback when he saw his appearance, thinking he was looking in the mirror.

He couldn't help but take two steps forward, turned over the body, and took a closer look, only to find that the body was indeed similar to himself. But one or two points less is a world of difference. Although this corpse is as handsome as himself, it is weak, usually has no assertiveness, and is easily shaken by external influences. His brows are shallow, it should be his mother's early death, and his relationship with his father is incompatible. The jawbones have many unhappy marriages, and even if they find the right person, the other party is not loyal. Black air shrouded his forehead, the villain had bad luck, and he liked to escape, which was obviously a sign of suicide.

Wei Xi looked up at the mountain wall in front of him that went straight to the sky. This person should have committed suicide by jumping off a cliff from above. He accidentally hit the barrier and fell into the barrier, but ghosts never come to this place to seduce souls. He died here and is destined to be impossible Reincarnation. This unlucky ghost has really come home, and he has to be the ration of the king of his mountain.

The newly released unlucky ghost has not yet figured out the situation. He was frightened by Wei Xi's movements and retreated from the head of his corpse to his legs. He buried his head in his crotch and shrank into a ball, shivering like a little boy who was about to slaughter his neck. Rooster. Wei Xi grabbed him and lifted it up and shook. This kid has a strong yin energy, but it is different from the dark-covered earth-bound spirits that Wei Xi has eaten before. The whole body is clear and he has never done evil.

Wei Dedao also forbid him to eat this.

Wei Xi was stunned, and suddenly lost his appetite.

He sneered and threw away the little devil who had shaken into a sieve. In order to avoid his weak will, he simply made a decision and overcame it on the spot.

When he recited the rebirth spell, he felt that he was probably starving to do such a thankless thing. The little ghost who escaped the disaster seemed to realize that the other party was helping him, and the ghost knelt on the ground and knocked several times. Before disappearing, he just took out something from his corpse and presented it respectfully to Wei Xi.

Wei Xi picked up this thing and looked through it after he was over the kid, and found that it was a flat bag made of cowhide. The bag has no lid and is folded in half from the center. There are many grooves on the inside. Many rectangular hard pieces of unknown purpose are inserted into the grooves. The innermost part is a pile of colorful paper with vivid patterns.

Wei Xi pulled out a red one with an old man he had never seen before.

If you don't draw beauties and old men on paper, what's the mess? He frowned and threw away the pile of useless stuff.

The weasel, who failed to offer the treasure, shrank beside the corpse in fear, Wei Xi glanced at the corpse, and Wei Dedao did not allow him to eat it!

How the hell does the old man have so much shit!

"Dig a hole and bury him!" Wei Xi said irritably, and added sullenly after the command, "If you dare to steal it, I will eat you."

The weasel almost escaped from the afterimage.

Wei Xi sat down beside the quiet mountain wall, the intense hunger almost engulfed him, but he didn't bother to move, just stared at the distant sea of clouds in a daze.

He was so tired that he just wanted to sleep for a long time, with the unhappiness of freedom lingering at his feet.

***

Half-dreaming and half-awake, Wei Xi felt that something fell into his mouth.

He happened to be hungry, so he chewed it, stopped immediately, tilted his head and vomited.

Bah, Bah, and spit out several piles of dirt.

Wei Xi: "...?"

He got up abruptly, trying to see who was so bold, only to find himself lying in a dirt pit.

The soil pit was very shallow, and he didn't take care of digging and filling it. He subconsciously ripped off the thin soil covering his body, but his eyes narrowed.

Under the black trousers that were missing half of the trouser legs, a pair of fair and thin legs were vigorously bent, and the arm that was pulling the soil was also exposed, without sleeves covering it.

The threatening sound of woo suddenly sounded, he turned his head to look, a weasel was standing by the dirt pit, the chicken thief's eyes stared at him in shock and covetousness.

Wei Xi was really silent now.

The weasel watched vigilantly at the human who suddenly swindled the corpse in front of him, sat up and then went into a daze.

Beasts don't have so many rules and morals. Although the boss told him not to eat them, it was a pity to find such fine-skinned and tender prey. It originally wanted to pretend to be buried for a few days before secretly eating it, but the cooked duck unexpectedly came alive again.

The weasel narrowed his eyes, his narrow pupils were full of wickedness, it took two steps back, and rushed forward!

Live ducks can fly, anyway, the boss is not nearby, a mere mortal, who is his opponent, it is better to get it first...

? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

When Kuaizhun grabbed his neck and lifted it up, the weasel was very confused.

The next second, the familiar fist and sneer followed one after another—

"I dare to defy my words. Little beast, are you tired of living?"

***

Wei Xi threw the weasel, who had been beaten into a trance, under the tree. After letting out a breath, his mood was much better.

Entering the blessed body for no reason, he really couldn't be said to be happy, but he couldn't get out, and it was useless to sit like this.

He stood up slowly, staring at the muscles in his legs that were constantly changing in subtle ways, with complicated emotions. Strange to say, this body has been dead for so long without corruption, and when he woke up, the original wounds on his body also disappeared. He walks, sits and sleeps as usual, and is still as hungry as before, only the dizziness he has never felt can make him truly confirm that he has a body.

When Weixi returned to the thatched hut, the beasts had all gone, and the sacrifices on the ground and the braised pork in the pot had not been touched.

The small courtyard was empty, Wei Dedao slept peacefully, no longer calling himself "apprentice" in twists and turns like before, and then yelling for food.

He won't wake up again.

The huge void made Wei Xi difficult to digest. What should I do every day

His eyes suddenly stopped and fell on Weidedao's chest, where lay the jade pendant that he had put in with others in the morning. It has only been seen for a while, and it seems to have suffered a serious injury, and its white and fat surface has become dull.

Wei Xi looked at it for a while, then bowed his head to pick it up, and then pulled the dirt piled up at the edge of the pit until it covered Wei Dedao's disgusting face.

Then he said, "I'm leaving."

***

A figure traversed quickly in the forest.

He ran extremely vigorously, and his body was light. The knotted tree roots in the woodland and the scum and dead branches that had been accumulated for an unknown number of years were empty under his feet. He carried a huge bamboo basket on his back, the sleeves of his Taoist robe and The hem of the clothes is flying in the wind.

That enchantment really doesn't work on the physical body.

But the dense forest is full of formations, and Weixi's journey is not too easy.

What's more, he also carried a whole bag of luggage, such as the silver taels that Wei Dedao had accumulated for many years.

He grabbed the poisonous snake that was daring and tried to attack him, bit off its head and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

The original clothes of this body are really confusing. Obviously, the fabrics are high-quality, smooth and supple to the touch, but they are lacking in weight, and they are bare-chested and bare-legged. Wei Xi didn't reject dressing like that. After all, he sometimes wore nothing in the mountains for convenience, but when he came out and encountered people, he had to be noticed, so he changed back to his clothes.

There is also a strange thing. After leaving the enchantment, the more he goes out, the less prey in the mountains. After a few days, except for a few pheasants and hares and the snake just now, he didn't come across any of the slightly larger rations.

Not to mention the wolves, tigers and leopards, how come there are no wild boars

Weixi looked up and looked up, and further up was the peak, where the clouds and mist were shrouded in fog, and the orientation was higher than the mountain where he lived. After eating the poisonous snake in his hand, he decided to sleep there tonight and grab something to feed his stomach.

He climbed up the tree trunk and jumped up, and after climbing nearly halfway, he suddenly heard some vague movement in his ears, like the sound of a heavy object stepping on the ground.

food!

Wei Xi suddenly increased his speed, thinking that it was almost the same. Wei Dedao said that this mountain is steep and desolate, and it is difficult for mortals to climb, so it is difficult to find a village within a radius of dozens of miles. The old man was blind in those days, and Feng Mean spent nearly two months sleeping in the open to find his current place to live. How can there be no beasts in such a place

Sure enough, the higher you go, the more real the sound becomes. The footsteps were regular and heavy, one after another, Weixi had never seen such a big beast walking and moving, and he couldn't help guessing the size of the other party in his heart. It must have the weight of a mountain, right

The King of the Mountain, who was used to tearing his throat with his hands, finally became vigilant and pulled out the kitchen knife tied to his belt.

Just ahead, just ahead.

He grabbed the last rock, scrutinized the pattern of his steps, and at the right moment, jumped up—

It was like breaking through an invisible barrier, and the huge noise in the world poured in in an instant.

"Go past a little bit, and take a picture of me on Yingzui Peak too!"

"Squeeze for what? Are you sick? Didn't see the cliff below? Squeeze you numb!"

"Fuck your mother! How did you talk!"

"Then where we are now is the famous Eagle's Mouth Peak of Fengyang Mountain. Look here, does the shape of the cliff resemble an eagle's beak? But although it is beautiful, the mountains under the cliff are all undeveloped areas. , is very dangerous, many professionals dare not enter easily, everyone must not leave the group to explore without authorization! So let’s get down to business, of course, the most famous one on the Eagle’s Mouth Peak is the Fengyang Mountain Temple, and everyone will burn it later. After the incense, you can come to me to buy amulets together..."

Wei Xi: "???"

With his feet on the solid ground, his expression was blank, and one hand was still touching the handle of the kitchen knife, but he had lost the idea of drawing out his weapon, because he finally saw his prey with thunderous footsteps—

A few steps away, outside the crowd, two young men with little clothes each held a mallet and were struggling to beat the stone pier in front of them. The woman on the side, who was also sparsely dressed, noticed Wei Xi's gaze, and said with a smile: "Young man, do you want to make cakes? Ten yuan a bowl."

As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed Wei Xi's dress in a different style, and the corners of her eyes twitched.

Almost at the same time, other travelers who traveled during the Golden Week also discovered the alien who appeared out of nowhere, which immediately triggered a wave of onlookers.

"Look at that kid, isn't it hot when you wear so much in autumn tigers?"

"What do you know, cosplay, young people are in good health."

"Playing a Taoist priest in Fengyang Mountain? It's a mess, right? And his clothes are too restored, dirty, old and patched. What's the matter, he is still a poor Taoist priest?"

"Oh, when you say that, your face is also gray!"

twitter, blah blah blah, Wei Xi suddenly became the brightest star in the night sky, attracting everyone's attention.
