Chapter 252: Ghost Cave
The old farmer's eyes widened: "These cows, all of them have been bitten by the nine-eyed spider?"
Wu Ma Xin seemed to understand that the reason why these nine-eyed spiders used cattle as their host was to make the old farmer throw a rat trap and not be able to help him.
Wu Ma's heart jumped upward, and the silver needles in his hand shot fiercely, and the black spots on those scalpers fell one after another, and the green water splashed everywhere.
The scalpers' eyes gradually returned to normal, and they fluttered their heads with a puzzled look: uh, how did they stand up?
When the green water falls to the ground, it seeps into the ground as well. There was not much time, the ground shook a few times, and a group of small black dots came out of the ground, densely packed with nine-eyed spiders. The Nine-Eyed Spider popped out a spider silk and stuck to the cow's hair, and its body swayed, jumping on the ox again. The two front hooves of the scalper, which had just touched the ground, were raised again, and their eyes were full of murderous aura.
"I'll go!" Wu Ma's heart was numb for a while, these nine-eyed spiders could be reborn in the ground, and if one died, dozens of them could be resurrected, and they were really not easy to deal with.
Wu Ma Xin shot out a silver needle and shouted, "Dude, do you know how to deal with these guys?"
"I ...... too," the old farmer's brows furrowed so much that he could kill the flies, and suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he said loudly, "The Nine-Eyed Spider will have a female spider, and as long as you kill it, it will not be able to come back to life." ”
"I see. Wu Ma was overjoyed, "What's the difference between the female spider and the others?"
"It's no different, they all look the same. ”
I'm crying! Wu Ma Xin almost vomited blood, where can I find this dense nine-eyed spider?
"Dude, can I burn it with fire?"
"No!" the old peasant's face turned pale, "they are not afraid of fire, but my cattle are very afraid of fire, no, no." ”
"That'...... Is it okay to use water?"
"Naturally, water doesn't work either. The old farmer held a bundle of straw and kept patting the black spots on the ox, and his mouth was anxious, "They are not afraid of water, but my cow is afraid of water." Don't bathe them unless it's the middle of the day, or you'll catch a cold. ”
When has it been, and he's still thinking about his cows, really!
......
Behind a group of cattle, thousands of villains dressed in yellow appeared, masked in black scarves, wearing hard armor with spikes, with a shield in their left hand and a knife in their right hand. At the head was the authoritative little old man.
The wooden stick in the little old man's hand knocked on the ground, and said coldly to the yellow-clothed villain in front of him: "I said that you are optimistic about the prince, but you dare to let him take revenge, it is really heartbreaking." No matter how many things we have, our locust clan is not easy to provoke, and this revenge must be avenged. Ohtani, didn't you say that you recognize the cow when it turned to ashes, and tell me which one was the one who trampled the prince to death?"
The yellow-clothed villain trembled and glanced at the dense scalpers in front of him, and couldn't help but scold his mother in his heart. Damn, there was only one cow just now, how did so many of them pop up all of a sudden, how do I know which one is the brute!
The little old man in yellow said with a cold face: "Which one is it?"
"That!" the little man in yellow said with a gesture of certainty.
Naturally, he couldn't recognize which one it was, so he had to find the thickest and strongest one. Either way, he had to find one, or the patriarch's anger would be vented on him. His small body is unbearable.
The little old man in yellow said, "Are you sure?"
"Sure, I recognize it when it turns to dust. ”
"Good. The little old man in yellow raised the crutch in his hand and shouted, "Brothers, go on, avenge the prince!"
"Roar!" the men in yellow roared and rushed towards the cow.
The cow was instantly surrounded by the yellow tide, and in an instant it was covered with dry bones, and it didn't even make a sound.
The little old man in yellow nodded approvingly and ordered the withdrawal of the army: "Our locust clan has revenge and revenge, but we will never kill innocents indiscriminately, withdraw." ”
"Yes!" the yellow tide receded.
......
The more the nine-eyed spider was killed, the more Wu Ma's heart was already sweating. He suddenly shouted loudly, "Brother, you see, those nine-eyed spiders can't be resurrected anymore, could it be...... We've killed the mother spider?"
"Haha," laughed the old farmer, "yes, so these fellows have nothing to fear." ”
The two of them became more and more courageous, but in the time of a pillar of incense, all the cattle honestly landed on all fours and walked slowly towards the cowshed.
Call...... Wu Ma breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't expect to solve such a big problem by mistake, God bless.
Rhubarb took Wu Ma Xin and the old farmer out of the hut and walked in the northwest direction. The reason why Rhubarb takes Nanting Mustard to Xiao Mao every day, by the way, to see if he is still there.
This ghost cave is a natural barrier, snakes, insects, rats and ants do not dare to approach, and it also avoids the harassment of the nine-eyed spider.
The mustard picked by the old farmer disappears every day, which also gives him a glimmer of hope, even if the ghost is still gone. But today, the Nanting mustard is still lying alone in front of the spirit card. The old farmer felt a pain in his heart, and then he concluded that Xiao Mao was really gone.
Wu Ma Xin asked, "Dude, what is the ghost cave?"
"Haha," said the old farmer, "it is a little cave where children are crying and playing, and every day or when the moon is full, you can always see a few ghosts, so it is called." ”
"Oh," Wu Maxin asked, "do you say there really are ghosts in this world?"
"Haha," the old farmer laughed, "we have a person named Yu Ion in Yizhou, who once told us: it is not certain that it is not true. The creatures of heaven and earth are also alive and must die. Since the opening of heaven and earth to the present, tens of millions of years have been born endlessly, and the six combinations and the six combinations are not extended, if there is life and no death, then the heaven and the earth are not enough to accommodate people. Therefore, people cannot be immortal, and there is power. If they are both dead and ghosts, there is not enough space between heaven and earth to accommodate ghosts. Therefore, it is said that people are ghosts when they die, and they are also reckless. However, the changes of the two qi are unpredictable, and if there are also souls that leave their souls and fail to disperse, they will also be temporary and cannot last long. The lady's anger is like the fire of the wood, the soul of the flame, and the body of the charcoal. Therefore, the soul of a man is restored to the air, and the fire is extinguished, and the flame is peaceful.
Wu Ma Xin scratched his head, and didn't seem to understand, after all, Duanguo is not allowed to read and read books privately, so for things that are too complicated, Wu Ma Xin sounds like a book from heaven.
The old farmer took out a bamboo pipe, stuffed some grass into the fire, and said slowly: "Heaven and earth nurture all things, and there is life and death." Since the beginning of the world, tens of millions of years have passed, and life has been endless, but the heavens and the earth have not been widened, if there is only life and no death, heaven and earth cannot accommodate so many people. Therefore, people cannot avoid death, and this is the result of the situation. If they die and become ghosts, there is no room for so many ghosts in heaven and earth. Therefore, it is a lie to say that people become ghosts when they die. However, the changes of yin and yang qi are unpredictable, and if the separation of people's souls is not dispersed, it can only be temporary, not lasting. It is when a person has attained vitality that this body is formed, just as a fire can only burn when attached to wood, a person's soul is like a flame burning on wood, and a person's body is a burning charcoal. Therefore, when a person receives the qi of heaven and earth to form his body, just like scooping the sea water into a cup and returning to the vitality when he dies, it is like pouring the sea water from a cup back into the sea, so how can he become a ghost?"
"Oh, I see. Wu Ma Xin nodded and continued to walk forward. He did see his parents and fellow villagers on the Fighting Beast Mountain...... Those are dead people. The reason why he didn't argue with the old peasants was because he didn't think they were ghosts, but the existence of another world.
Death is just from this world to another world.
The cave is not big, and it is also covered with ice, glowing with a faint blue light, which is very similar to the lion cave in Fighting Beast Mountain.
"Little hair. The old farmer shouted eagerly, and the buzzing echo resounded in the cave.
There was no echo in the hole.
"Rhubarb. The old farmer gently stroked the cow's back, "Take me there." ”
Rhubarb shook his head twice and ran towards the hole. The stalactites on the roof of the cave scratched the back with blood marks. Wu Ma Xin and the old farmer followed behind, carefully dodging the stalactites hanging from above.
Rhubarb suddenly stopped, and in front of him was a large patch of southern mustard, emitting different shades of fluorescence. Wu Ma was surprised, what was piled up here was the old farmer's fatherly love for three years.
In the middle of Nanting Mustard sat a woman with a pale face, and her equally pale arms held a boy with a tiger's head. The woman was looking down at the child fiddling with the flowers in her hand.
The old farmer walked over slowly and called softly, "Chunni......"
The woman raised her head and grinned: "Da Zhuang, you are here." Rhubarb is also coming. ”
Wu Ma Xin took two steps back, and at this time, he couldn't help but think of his parents.
The old farmer sat beside the woman, carefully held her hand, and gently stroked it with the vicissitudes of life: "Chunni, I'm sorry for you, you didn't take good care of our little hair." ”
"No," Xiao Mao puffed out his mouth and said, "Mother, don't listen to my father's nonsense, he is good to me." ”
"Haha," the old farmer laughed, he hadn't laughed like this in eight years.
The old farmer patted the back of the woman's hand, stood up and walked to Wu Ma's heart, handed him the cow tears wrapped in grass leaves, and said, "Brother Wu Ma, thank you, I don't have anything to give you, you can take this, you may be able to use it in the future." The cabinet in the east room of my house is a secret door, and if you open it, it will be the way up the mountain, so I won't send it to you. ”
Wu Ma Xin nodded, turned and left. Not disturbing the happiness of others is the greatest kindness.
"I didn't expect our family to finally be reunited again, and this time no one could separate us again. The old farmer looked at the woman with satisfaction, and stroked the cow lying on the ground. He took out a wooden knife from his arms and handed it to Xiao Mao, saying, "Starting today, my father will teach you martial arts." ”
"Wow. Xiao Mao jumped up excitedly.
