But the small things he once underestimated were actually big things.
"I've always been curious..." Xie Wen still looked down at Wen Shi, so the moment he spoke, his voice was low, like a kind of gentle comfort.
After a while, he raised his eyes and said to Zhang Lan and Zhang Yalin, "Where did you hear those rumors that are described as earth-shattering and divine?"
Zhang Lan was stunned by the question, but did not respond: "What do you mean?"
Xie asked: "What did your ancestors say from generation to generation?"
Zhang Yalin was at a loss for words: "You..."
Zhang Lan asked back with question marks all over his head: "What are you talking about? Isn't it too unfilial? Isn't my old ancestor yours?"
Xie Wen smiled: "You ask your ancestors if they recognize it."
Zhang Lan frowned, subconsciously glanced at the others, and found that Lao Mao was staring at her with a strange look, which made her a little strange and a little annoyed. After all, when it comes to Xie Wen, it involves his mother Zhang Wan, and it feels like she is bringing out the family affairs of the Zhang family for others to see.
"It's boring to be sick," Zhang Lan said. "The grievances of a generation don't need to be pushed forward from generation to generation, and back 10,000 steps, can you change your ancestors?"
After saying this, Lao Mao's eyes became even more strange.
Zhang Lan: "?"
She subconsciously wanted to ask what are you looking at me for? But my intuition would not be a good word, and I wanted to quickly bring this topic over, so I turned to Xie and asked, "What kind of rumors should I bring up?"
However, Xie Wen had already left.
He didn't answer Zhang Lan's words, but broke off a half-dead branch from a tree not far away, and asked Xiao Hei: "You just said you were looking for the formation mark, and since the formation mark is found, do you think the formation eye will be there? Where?"
His tone is always calm, so that questions are not like questions, like "I will test you".
Ordinary people don't use other people's puppets indiscriminately, because big things can't be used, and small things are unnecessary. Over time, it became a convention.
However, Zhang Yalin is not a stingy character. Xiaohei has been using his sister all the year round. At this time, it is not a big problem to ask Xie to use it. He is just not used to it.
Before he could nod, Xiao Hei had already pointed his finger in one direction.
Xie Wen said "OK" and walked in that direction.
He didn't know what he wanted to do when he smelled it, and his eyes always followed him. I heard him say: "You don't practice the formation, but you have seen it in books, or you can understand if you think about it. If it is a large formation used as a seal, the closer it is to the eye of the formation, the more likely it will happen."
He glanced at Zhao Wen as he spoke.
If there is anyone who makes Bu Ning feel embarrassed in the formation, it is only Master Chen. When I was helping Bu Ning to practice formations, Chen Dao often borrowed trivial things such as a rock, a flower or a bird, and quietly changed Bu Ning's achievements for a few days.
Bu Ning has been practicing until he was crowned when he was a child, and with the addition of hexagrams, he can barely guard against him.
Fortunately, there is no second dust in the world, so it is not a problem for Bu Ning to call the ancestor of the pharaoh.
With these two people around, although Wen Shi is not good at setting up formations, he has practiced 80 to 90% of formation formations. Of course, he knows the basic principles—
If it is a large seal formation, the closer it is to the eye of the formation, the easier it is to have the appearance of running out of oil and dying.
After all, the purpose of that formation is to make someone or something go away and never turn around. A fierce enough formation can make the grass and trees within a hundred miles wither, and there is no living thing.
There is a dead silence around here, which really means that.
But if it was really like Zhang Lan guessed, it was the formation that was out of reach of the seal dust, and as long as the unbreakable branch got closer to the formation's eye, it would instantly vanish into ashes.
But when Xie Wen walked somewhere, not only did the branch in his hand not disappear, it even turned green at that moment, and a thin bud was drawn.
This result was really unexpected, and even Xie Wen was stunned for a moment.
Sister Zhang Lan was even more stunned.
"How is that possible..." Zhang Yalin muttered softly.
Xie Wen's eyes swept across the new branches between his fingers, and then he turned around and said, "So the rumors of Taixin are not good. Who said that Bu Ning only left such a big formation."
He walked back, gently twisting the green branch with buds with his downed fingers, then stopped in front of Wen Shi.
He bent down and gently touched Wen Shi's tightly pursed, bloodless lips with the reborn green branch, and he didn't know if he was telling everyone or Wen Shi alone, "It's not a big seal formation, don't be rigid. Face, nothing is wrong."
These words fall into the ears of different people and have different meanings.
Zhang Lan and the others thought that he said that it was not the seal formation, so he was less fierce and less dangerous, but the atmosphere was a little weird.
As for Wen Shi, it was as if he was saying that he couldn't get into trouble. After all, even if there was a rumored seal formation and no supernatural life, he still stood here well.
Wen Shi took the green branch, and when he got up, Xie Wen stretched out his hand and pulled him.
The temperature of the palm passed through the skin, so real that it made people feel a little calmer, and the pale lips finally recovered a little when they smelled it.
Thank you for letting go.
When smelling, he twisted the remaining body temperature on his fingertips, and suddenly turned his head and walked towards a nearby tree, breaking a branch as well.
Xie Wen looked at him holding the branches and walked in front of him, walking in the direction of the eye, and couldn't help but ask, "Why do you want to try again?"
Wen Shi's footsteps paused and then lifted, and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid you will lie to me."
He has been deceived by this person countless times since he was a child, teasing, pampering, coaxing him to cry and coaxing him to laugh, fearing that he will be anxious and worried.
Most of them he can handle, some not.
It wasn't until the branch in his hand pulled out a branch near the eye of the formation that he really believed Xie Wen's words when he heard it.
"Brother, the budding of the branches means that this formation is good, right?" Xia Qiao couldn't help but ask.
"It's hard to say, this is also the case with some fierce formations that obstruct people's eyes." Wen Shi replied.
Just make sure it's not for sealing.
He was about to put the two branches into his pocket, but Xie Wen reached out his hand and blocked it, cutting Hu halfway.
"What are you doing?" Wen Shi frowned and turned around, seeing Xie Wen leaning over and sticking the two branches in the mud beside him.
"Since the buds have grown, let them live a while longer." Xie asked.
Maybe it was because they were close to the eye of the formation, and the moment they landed, they stretched out a bit, and the newly born tender leaves were supported sideways, touching each other, and two shadows entangled side by side fell on the ground.
Xie Wen glanced at the two shadows, and for a moment seemed to feel that they were too close, and wanted to move one of them further away.
But I don't know why my hands were raised and lowered, and I changed my mind.
The others followed. Zhang Yalin saw the two branches and couldn't help but ask, "What's the point of this?"
He is more rigorous by nature, and always feels that these actions are all with arguments and purposes. After all, he himself is not very good at doing superfluous and useless things.
Zhang Lan was different from him, and Wan contacted gossip and rumors in advance. She scoured the mess in her stomach and said, "It seems that there is such a rumor..."
Halfway through his words, Xie Wen raised his eyes and glanced at her.
Aunt Zhang remembered the mockery made by the sick child about her rumors earlier, and silently shut her mouth again, and then said, "So now this situation is a bit unexpected, and I'm actually a little dizzy by this place."
"It's not so bad to faint, Li Yili has eyes on him." Zhang Yalin replied.
"Now it seems that this formation is not a fierce and evil formation used to seal someone, at least it is different from what I imagined. Xiao Hei said before that it drives people away and pulls people in at the same time."
Xiao Hei nodded in agreement: "This is indeed very strange."
When I heard it, I suddenly thought of a possibility.
Zhang Lan said before that after they lost all five senses, they unknowingly walked to the wooden fence that circled the old village. This should be the so-called "attracting people". When he was in the village, he was attacked again, which should be the so-called "drive away".
It's contradictory at first glance, but if it's Buning...
When Wen Shi tried to guess the purpose of this formation by borrowing the person in his memory, it was like helping Zhong Si to solve Bu Ning's formation when he was in a good mood.
If it is Bu Ning's formation, if there is danger in the formation, he should enclose and hide the whole place to prevent any innocent people from breaking in by mistake.
But at the same time, he also practiced the hexagram technique, and he would often leave some way out for some vaguely captured possibilities. So he should think about how to save the lives of those people if someone really broke in by mistake.
When I smelled it, I looked at the old village surrounded by wooden fences, and I felt it was obvious - there may be a safe place left by Bu Ning, and when people broke in by mistake, they were brought in.
But now it seems that the old village surrounded by wooden fences seems to be no longer safe. They are quiet and dilapidated, empty, and there is not even a shadow of ghosts.
"So what about the people inside?" Zhang Lan frowned.
Although she and Zhang Yalin didn't know Bu Ning's personality and temperament, but based on what they had just experienced, they also guessed half right, at least guessed the use of the old village.
Xie Wen pointed to the dark passage they passed through when they came, and said, "This is probably the purpose of that door."
When it is no longer safe here, send people to another place. That is the land where Lu Wenjuan and the others lived.
"Then... Who made the door connecting the two places? Look at Xiao Hei's meaning, it shouldn't be Bu Ning himself. Has anyone else come in?" Is there something that needs to be hidden like that?"
Zhang Yalin suddenly reminded: "Don't forget, this is still a cage."
Zhang Lan: "Yeah, this is still a cage. In someone's cage, there will be ancestor Bu Ning forming a formation? Is it possible..."
She raised her head in amazement: "The cage owner is Ancestor Bu Ning himself???"
Hearing this, Wen Shi and Xie Wen's expressions changed.
Before that, Wen Shi had thought about the various connections between this cage and Bu Ning, but he never thought that he was the cage owner. Because in the limited memory of Wen Shi, the young senior brother who carried copper plates and round stones with him would laugh and say that he was blessed by God when he was lucky, and sighed when he was in trouble. Rather than coincidence.
He never thought that such a person might leave a cage that will not be scattered for thousands of years.
"Go into the formation and have a look." Zhang Yalin said, "It should be clear when you go in."
Zhang Lan turned his head and threw out three talismans: "I'll confirm Xiao Xu's position first, it's dangerous, if he's on the periphery, don't follow us in."
Zhang Yalin nodded and asked Xiao Hei to find his way along the boulders.
But when I heard it, I said, "Don't look for it, there is no way."
Zhang Yalin and Xiao Hei were stunned for a moment at the same time, and when they turned around, they saw Wen Shi wrapping the puppet thread around his fingers.
"What do you mean?" Zhang Yalin asked.
It was rare for Wen Shi to tie the puppet line tightly according to the rules, and said in a low voice, "Bu Ning's eyes have never found a way."
Zhang Yalin: "How can there be no way? How can I get there without a way?"
When smelling: "Force open."
Bu Ning is the best at circumnavigating people. He joked with Zhong Si that he could circumnavigate him for thousands of miles. If he was serious about hiding in a place, it might be easy to go around for a few years. Therefore, when I heard that, I could only forcefully open the eyes of him.
If there is no way to pass, he will force the array to come over.
He spoke calmly, Zhang Yalin nodded subconsciously, and took out the puppet wire and wrapped it around his fingers, saying, "Okay, let's drive together, it will save a little effort."
"I can't save it." Wen Shi replied in a low voice, "That's Bu Ning."
In the next moment, the wind was blowing, and the sound was roaring.
The snake stepped out of the flame, and with every inch of friction on the chain, dazzling sparks would burst out. Coiled and outdated, the wind can overturn an entire village.
Zhang Yalin narrowed his eyes in the gust of wind, and was about to release his giant beast.
His puppet line had already been thrown out, and suddenly he made a "hiss", thinking of a problem. He said loudly in the wind: "You haven't solved Bu Ning's array—how do you know how his array eyes are opened—"
