Chapter 23: Volume One (Xiaoqian Chapter of Mountains and Seas)

Views:

In this month, Pulao also visited once.

"What's your attitude when talking to me? How did you get in." Bai Ze said.

Seeing that Xiao Ai was not there at this time, I became more confident and said, "Why can't your daughter bring me to play?"

But after waiting for a few minutes and seeing me being thrown heavily to the ground, I left.

My face felt instantly cool.

He even began to wonder if I had stiffened my wings and was trying to find an excuse to lie to him, but he didn't come to save me even after I mentioned my location.

The word "Black Mountain" is written on the stele, and below the word "Black Mountain" is a line of small characters: Lanruo Temple ahead.

Xiao Ai nodded and said, "It's finally right this time."

At this time, I appeared in the original room again.

Life was pretty comfortable, with plenty of meat and fish every day.

And here I am at the bottom of the mountain getting slapped in the face.

After saying that, before I could react, Xiao Ai grabbed my hand and pulled it.

I thought for a moment and planned to change the subject and said, "Wait a minute, your wife asks you to lose weight every day, and you ask me to get up every morning and run a half marathon. But you are watching from upstairs. Is this reasonable?"

"I was passing by, and my hands are suffering from an old problem." I said helplessly.

I was stunned for a few seconds. It turned out that Bai Ze was really related to Ning Caichen.

This hairpin belongs to Fengli. I put it in my pocket a long time ago, thinking that I would use it sooner or later.

After all, I had seen both the Green Dragon Beard Needle and the Awakening Dragon Ruler before. Out of curiosity, I opened the lid of the medicine box.

After all, Pulao also said that you can only leave after learning the etiquette.

The only unpleasant thing is that Bai Ze wakes me up at four o'clock every morning.

The time after dinner was all mine, with almost no restrictions on me.

You can do anything during your break, but I usually choose to use it to make phone calls.

I don't know if Pulao can feel that I have left the zoo, but I just need to take one step. My hands would rise up to my head involuntarily, and my muscles would tighten and begin to accumulate strength.

After a meal of delicacies at noon, there will be a half-hour rest.

Then I couldn't help but hit my head violently. Imagine what kind of scene this is

Bai Ze's room was just below mine, and I was thinking about it idly and wanted to ask him when he would teach etiquette.

Not to mention the ruler in Bai Ze's hand, it didn't hurt the moment he knocked it off. But after the beating, my brain felt like it had experienced a magnitude 10 earthquake, and my whole person collapsed. I once asked why the ruler hurt so much, but Bai Ze just smiled and said it woke up the dragon ruler.

It dawned on me.

I took out my phone at this time and looked at my face against the reflection of the black screen.

Early the next morning, Fengli didn't say anything and just laughed all morning.

Xiao Ai pointed forward and said, "Brother, I'm quite bored too. How about I take you there?"

The three of them looked at each other, and the atmosphere was very awkward.

Although I knew my face should be unrecognizable by now, I looked around.

And I seem to be able to scan my face at the zoo, so I don’t have to pay for anything.

After saying that, Xiao Ai escaped into the medicine box, leaving me and Bai Ze behind.

Bai Ze took a long breath and said, "That's it, get out of here."

And what he teaches is actually Sanda and boxing.

I seemed to have seen it on TV. I found a stone monument not far away.

Of course, freedom is aside, the living conditions here are several times better than those in Taoism.

I froze on the spot, and the little Ai in front of me took out this year's latest iPhone. I thought about what she said before, and something like aloofness was simply not something that could be said in ancient times.

After breakfast, Bai Ze stared at him and memorized classical Chinese all morning, which was awkward and difficult to understand.

And maybe just as Bai Ze said himself, he told Pu Songling the story of A Chinese Ghost Story.

Suddenly there was a pull that sucked me into the medicine box. One second I was about to resist, and the next second I disappeared into the darkness.

Xiao Ai nodded.

During my second week here, I tried to sneak out of the zoo at night.

It was pitch dark inside, and I slowly reached in.

Walking in the corridor, I have almost figured out everything here.

Bai Ze also learned medical skills from classical Chinese and seemed to want to pour everything into my brain.

"So where is this place? How to get out?" I said helplessly.

The scenery here is beautiful, it seems to be a mountain.

I slowly closed the door and walked towards Bai Ze's medicine box.

I froze on the spot, turned my head and said with a smile, "Can you help?"

"Dad, do you know this puppy brother? He is your friend at first glance." Xiao Ai said with a smile.

"What do you want to know?" Bai Ze returned to the table, slapped the ruler on the table and continued eating.

It seemed to work, but it didn't work as well as the first time.

"What are you doing to suck people's souls?" Xiao Ai looked at me puzzled and said.

One lap of this zoo is at least 10,000 meters. If I had to run around it twice, it would be at least 20 kilometers. It was a half-marathon, and I had to run from four o'clock to six o'clock in the beginning to finish. But then it got faster and easier.

For a moment my hand stopped.

I also tried to see if I could use the same sound wave as when I fought Fengli for the first time.

Xiao Ai smiled and said, "Dad, you are eating secretly behind Mom's back again."

Let me run around the zoo twice before I can start breakfast.

Fortunately, it only lasted a day and my face returned to its original state. It seems that my healing ability has already exceeded that of ordinary people.

On the bed in the room, Bai Ze's medicine box was placed on it.

I pointed to the front and said: "The front you just mentioned is Lanruo Temple."

"How do you know Xiao Ai?" Bai Ze put down the midnight snack and stretched out his left hand to summon the Awakening Dragon Ruler.

"You stay away from my daughter, I haven't taught you a good lesson yet. Don't try to teach my daughter a bad lesson, do you hear me?" Bai Ze said and waved his hand.

I had no choice but to contact Zhao Bayi to send senior brother back to the Taoist Temple.

"Brother Puppy hasn't told me who to look for at Lanruo Temple yet? Lanruo Temple has long been empty now. Everyone nearby is in Lanruo Village down the mountain. There is only my house on the top of the mountain and nothing else." Xiao Ai said.

After a dozen strokes, the keyhole was opened.

"No, men and women are not allowed to be intimate. I can go up there alone, don't worry about me." I said, fearing that if I didn't pay attention, I would be confused and my soul would be sucked away.

I was stunned for a second and said, "Are you Xiaoqian and Bai Ze's daughter?"

"Brother Puppy, you are so cold. Is Brother Puppy's hand controlled by someone else? I have learned some magic and it seems that it can help." Xiao Ai said with a smile.

Xiao Ai waved his arms a few times, and a ray of light entered my hand.

"Grandma? Wait, you haven't seen too many Strange Stories from the Chinese Studio, have you? There was one before, but he was beaten to death. Wait, you just said that I can't suck people's souls. You don't think of me as a ghost, do you? ?Have you watched too much Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio?" Xiao Ai said with a smile.

"The top of the mountain is your home, so who are you, grandma?" I said.

"Then you don't have to follow me, I'll go alone." I said helplessly.

Three months passed like this, and the most impatient person was my master.

Bai Ze was eating midnight snacks at the moment.

"Wait, I can leave. But you have to let me know everything clearly, right?" I said.

I was thinking about opening the medicine box. There might be many treasures in it.

Not only how long had passed, I was woken up by myself.

I turned my head, and in front of me was a beautiful woman dressed in white.

And I couldn't stop my hands at all, but as soon as I returned to the zoo, my hands would relax and continue to accept my control.

"That..." I clasped my chin.

"There is a village in the medicine box. What about the people in the village?" I said.

I nodded my head and turned to leave, with the story of A Chinese Ghost Story in my mind. Of course, what I think more about is that Xiao Ai helped me lift the restrictions of Pulao.

I slowly opened the door, and there was no one in the room.

How can a person like me, who doesn't like to read, stand this, mispronounce a word or answer incorrectly? Bai Ze would hit my head with a ruler, which really hurt like hell.

I looked around, squatted in front of the door and started tinkering.

Bai Ze said lightly: "Xiao Qian really has her own ghost, and the story of A Chinese Ghost Story is indeed true. However, my grandma was eliminated by me at that time, but humans and ghosts have different paths. Grandma is a thousand-year-old tree demon, and Xiao Qian died that year. The white bones under the vine of the old demon tree in Black Mountain. After turning into a ghost, I couldn't leave the roots of the tree where my grandma died. I could only make this medicine box from the tree vines and roots of the thousand-year-old tree demon. The entire Lanruo Temple and the small village at the foot of the mountain were packed together. Once inside the medicine box, it becomes a small world that can function."

"Well, my name is Goudan. You can call me whatever you want. Which direction is Lanruo Temple?" I said helplessly.

I have never been to the scene here, but it always feels like déjà vu.

Bai Ze smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't it because your mother doesn't let me eat midnight snacks? She yells at me to lose weight every day. She will go in after I finish eating. You can go back first."

It hurt terribly at first, but Fengli recovered within a few minutes after the bone grafting.

I stood there for a moment and said, "So where is Xiaoqian, and where is Ning Caichen?"

"Why do you have an iPhone?" I said in surprise.

Xiao Ai waved her hand a few more times, and another ray of light entered my face.

I walked up quickly and took a breath when I saw the words on the stone tablet.

I knocked on Bai Ze's door but no one answered. I hesitated at the door for a moment and took out the hairpin.

Fengli looked at me with disgust, as if he was looking at a fool.

Bai Ze was stunned and said, "The door is locked, how did you get in?"

I think Fengli did it on purpose, but he actually taught me martial arts. But I almost only get beaten and they never teach me any skills, but it is true that I am becoming more and more resistant to beatings.

"I met you on the road, what do you want to do?" I said.

I can't explain why I can only deal with it, because I can't leave the zoo at all.

Xiao Ai smiled and said, "Isn't it easy to go out? I'll take you out."

Then at one o'clock in the afternoon, Fengli would come to my room and take me to the gym on the lower floor to start teaching me martial arts.

And a dark wind blew behind me, and a soft girl called out: "Brother, are you lost?"

I shivered for a while. According to A Chinese Ghost Story, the female ghosts in Montenegro are all grandma's subordinates. It's responsible for sucking people's souls. If this is still the case here, I'll be in trouble. But if this matter is according to what is written in A Chinese Ghost Story, grandma should be dead? But you still need to be vigilant.

After the master understood this, he cried and screamed, and cheated Zhao Bayi again on the grounds that I might not be able to come back.

Xiao Ai snorted coldly and said, "Go back early. Mom will be angry if you are late."

"This..." I scratched my head.

Even if you use hemp rope to tie your hands by your mouth, or tie your hands with sponge or something like that. But as soon as I go out, my hands will try their best to hit me in the face. And every time I try my best, I finally give up.

"Why are you looking for my parents? And my dad doesn't call me this anymore." Xiao Ai looked at me in confusion and said.

I only dared to wander around the zoo and couldn't leave at all.

I passed the so-called catastrophe in Pulao. I wanted to leave Fengli, but he told me that I could only leave after I learned the etiquette.

My whole body felt bad. After a moment of immersion, I said nervously: "You... don't suck people's souls, do you?"

Then the master's intention was to quickly return to the Taoist temple while others were not paying attention. There was still a business of slaying demons and demons once a month waiting for me here.

But Fengli doesn't just make gestures, he means it almost every time.

Even if my body has been strengthened, the inertia and force will still break my bones if I fly into the air and fall to the ground.

"I didn't expect Brother Puppy to be quite handsome." Xiao Ai said with a smile.

In fact, my body almost doesn’t feel tired, it’s just that people get bored.

My hands kept hitting my head while I was unconscious.

But obviously the consequences of eating tofu are just being thrown farther and hitting harder.

"Those who were captured to accompany Xiaoqian in the early years have been living in ancient times and have no way to leave. Of course, the only one you see is Xiao Ai, the daughter born to me and Xiaoqian. She does not have Xiaoqian's restrictions, and only she You and I can go in and out of the medicine cabinet freely," Bai Ze said.

It must have been a long time since the beating, because I was already numb from the pain.

"Little brother, there hasn't been a new face here in thousands of years. My name is Xiao Ai. What do you call me, little brother?" Xiao Ai said with a smile.

I found the switch and turned on the light. The room was a little more modest than the one above me.

The master has taught me this before. The senior brother is relatively stupid, but I learned quickly.

The beauty is exquisite in appearance, much more beautiful than Fengli.

Bai Ze shook his head when he saw my face, and I found the mirror and found that I couldn't even recognize myself.

"What you told me that day, this Liaozhai story is true. Your prototype is Ning Caichen, and Xiaoqian is a real person? But how did Heishan end up in your medicine cabinet?" I said.

But as soon as I took a step away from the back door of the zoo, my hands started to rise uncontrollably.

I was walking on the road, and my hands kept waving, causing my face to be bruised and swollen.

But I had no choice but to tell the truth, saying that I had been kidnapped by an ancient monster and was working as a laborer on someone else's land. The master didn't believe it at first, but Zhao Bayi came forward and gave generous rewards, saying that it was thanks to me that he could escape the disaster, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

In actual combat, I was allowed to use any move, so I also suffered a lot from her.

My first reaction when I woke up was that this was no longer a zoo because my hands were completely out of my control.

I once asked why we didn’t start teaching from those ancient times with tiger claws, snake palms, and white cranes showing their wings.

"Did you buy it? Can't Brother Puppy afford it?" Xiao Ai said.

I can only try to obey, and maybe if I behave well I can leave.

"You haven't said yet, how did you get in." Bai Ze said again.

There was still half an hour left at noon to make a call, and a few days later I learned that the elder brother had recovered in the hospital.

Although, I have some foundation in Taoist boxing.

But you can't leave here, no matter how powerful you are, there's no use for it.

That night I repeated the experiment for an hour.

In the middle of the night, unable to sleep, I got up.

The injury on his face was treated, and at this moment Xiao Ai handed over the mobile phone and said: "Why is Brother Puppy's mobile phone so bad? This is an iPhone. I will open a front camera for you."

"Little brother? Why do you keep hitting yourself in the face?" the beauty said with a smile.
