Chapter 64: Misty Mountain
The child's name is Li Xiaojian, and he has been cultivating with an old man in a village in the mountains with his sister since he was a child, don't look at him now he looks only seven or eight years old, but his actual age is fifteen years old.
It's just that because of physical reasons, I haven't grown much.
The old man died a few years ago, and all the burdens of life were all on his sister, and his sister was busy trying to break through to a higher spiritual realm, so he had no one to take care of, and often ran down the mountain to play.
Over the years, he has relied on illusion to make a lot of trouble, but he still has a bottom line and has never done anything too excessive.
In his words, it is not a deception to deceive those who come to pray, it is called mutual help!
Guo Shuai knew everything he wanted to know, and was no longer polite to Li Xiaojian, approaching step by step: "Stinky boy, no one educated you before, so I will teach you how to be a person for them." ”
Li Xiaojian was forced to be anxious, silently recited the mantra, and launched a spiritual attack spell, this time the spell was extraordinary, but he had begged the old man for a long time to learn.
This technique will directly attack the human soul, and the victim will be unconscious at least or stupid, and it will take at least more than a month to return to normal.
It's a pity that he only learned the skin, and when he met Guo Shuai, it naturally had no effect at all.
Guo Shuai grabbed Li Xiaojian is hammer, and after the fight, he was still angry, turned back to Gao Yong and said: "The opportunity to practice has come, hurry up and beat him." ”
Gao Yong rushed over with a long knife and stabbed Li Xiaojian in the thigh, and Li Xiaojian, who was splashed with blood and hurt, screamed.
Li Xiaojian shouted to Guo Shuai: "You're done, when I go back and tell my sister, my sister will definitely kill you!!"
"Don't worry, I'm still trying to go to her and ask her how she disciplined her brother and taught a bear child like you. ”
After Guo Shuai finished speaking, he immediately slapped Li Xiaojian twice, turned his head to Gao Yong and said, "You're welcome, keep beating him for me, as long as you don't kill or maim him, whatever you want." ”
Gao Yong understood, and facing Li Xiaojian was a hammer.
For so many years, he has been bullied by others, and he has already accumulated too much anger in his heart, and it is inevitable that he will shoot regardless of the severity of the shot, and Li Xiaojian will scream indiscriminately.
The monks in the distance took this opportunity to run away quietly, but Guo Shuai didn't care.
These fake monks will lose their courage in the future, and they will not be able to harm people.
In the future, it is estimated that ordinary people will have a difficult life, their identities will be reversed, and they will become cowards like Gao Yong before, and the huge gap will definitely suffocate to death.
That night, Guo Shuai spent the night in the temple, and the next morning grabbed the half-dead Li Xiaojian and went to the Misty Mountain to find his sister.
On the one hand, he was looking for the woman to settle accounts, and on the other hand, he wanted to comprehend Gao Tang's true spiritual techniques, and if possible, learn one or two by the way.
Before leaving, he smashed the stele, he is not dead, what is the stele?
......
The Misty Mountains are remote, desolate and uninhabited.
At night, the fog appears in the mountains, and it does not gradually dissipate until dawn the next day.
No one knows how this fog came about or why it stays here.
This mysterious phenomenon naturally attracts many adventurers, but without exception, no one has ever managed to make it through the fog.
Most adventurers pass out when they enter the fog, and when they wake up the next day, they find themselves at the foot of the mountain, but a few are completely missing, and it is a long time before their bodies are found somewhere in the mountain.
As for what happened in the mountains, these survivors couldn't remember anything, only an inexplicable fear was deeply imprinted in their minds, so that they never dared to enter the mountains again.
As time passed, more people dared to try, and the rumors about Misty Mountain became more and more bizarre.
Since then, fewer and fewer people have dared to come here.
Of course, Li Xiaojian won't tell Guo Shuai about all this.
Since being beaten, he has become unusually silent, saying nothing but informing him of the location of Misty Mountain.
At noon, the two of them had lunch and went into the mountains, and after some investigation, they found nothing, only familiarized themselves with the terrain of the lower part.
Li Xiaojian finally couldn't help but speak: "If you want to see my sister, you must wait until the evening, and come back after the fog appears." ”
Guo Shuai asked other questions, but Li Xiaojian kept silent.
"Why do you always like to go through the process?" So Guo Shuai unceremoniously beat Li Xiaojian again.
Li Xiaojian cried with a sad face, but he said quietly: "The fog that appeared at night, I don't know who left the phantom array before, if outsiders want to climb to the real mountaintop, they must enter the phantom array and pass the test of the phantom array." ”
"Then how do you pass through the phantom array?" asked Guo Shuai.
"......" Li Xiaojian gritted his teeth and did not speak.
Guo Shuai raised his right hand in the air, making a gesture to fight.
"Stop fighting. Li Xiaojian covered his head with both hands, "I really don't know how outsiders pass...... Anyway, my sister and I can pass through directly, without entering the illusion. ”
"What else?" said Guo Shuai.
"......" Li Xiaojian saw that Guo Shuai was about to make a move again, and hurriedly said, "Okay, I admit it, I want to trick you into the phantom array, the phantom array is very dangerous inside, but I really don't know how outsiders can crack it." ”
The two entered the mountain again at night, and when Guo Shuai stepped into the fog, he didn't find anything abnormal, but Li Xiaojian behind him suddenly disappeared.
Guo Shuai sat down on the spot, relaxed his spirit, and tried to keep his brain blank.
After a few minutes, the scenery in front of him changed abruptly, and a huge labyrinth appeared in front of him.
Guo Shuai got up, but the maze suddenly disappeared.
He was depressed, it seemed that it was not all good things to be too high, and it was so difficult to think of illusions.
took a turn in the mountains and found nothing, which aroused Guo Shuai's sense of victory and defeat: "It's all here, how can you return in vain?"
Guo Shuai found an open space to sit down, closed his eyes and meditated, trying to familiarize himself with his mental state.
People's spirit and strength are somewhat the same, they can be controlled by themselves, but mental power is obviously more difficult, and unlike strength, if a person's spiritual base value is too low, it is completely uncontrollable, and can only be manipulated by emotions.
The higher the mental power, the easier it is to control one's state.
After a few minutes, Guo Shuai opened his eyes and slowly adjusted the level of his mental power, until the world in front of him was divided into two.
One is the original real world, trees, weeds, and the other is the world of illusion changes, a huge labyrinth.
The scene in front of him can be switched at will.
Guo Shuai entered the labyrinth, walked for about five minutes, and came to the first fork in the road, there was no middle road, only two roads left and right.
Guo Shuai switched between the two worlds, and then he found that in the middle of the two worlds, a scene of the third world suddenly appeared.
A red ribbon floats straight in the air, with no end in sight, as if pointing in the right direction, and above the fork in the road there are two thin lines attached to the ribbon.
Guo Shuai chose a road on the left, and after turning around, he came to the direction guided by the ribbon again, and he didn't go far ahead, and the same fork in the road appeared in front of him.
This time, Guo Shuai chose to take the right road, and after still turning a few corners, he returned to the direction of the ribbon again.
After about half an hour, the fork in the road ahead turned into four roads, and there was still no middle road.
After Guo Shuai chose a random path and walked it, he really returned to the direction guided by the ribbon again.
At this time, Guo Shuai finally understood.
In fact, no matter which road you take, the end point is the same, each road is the right choice, if you have to say the difference, that is, the scenery on the road will be a little different, whether the road is easy to walk.
After many choices, ordinary people still can't see the end, and they can't help but wonder, is the original choice wrong?
So hesitate or simply turn around and choose again, so that you just fall into the trap of the layouter.
As the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome.
Sometimes too many choices are not necessarily a good thing.
