Chapter 82: The Old Ghost
In a house that is raining and windy, if you don't look closely, you really can't see that this is a mud house that has been tempered by the vicissitudes of time.
Next to the earthen house, a few clods of earth, covered with a few wisps of hay, formed a simplest and equally practical bed, on which lay ink tears, and by looking at the appearance of this man, he knew that he must be in a coma, otherwise he would have been raised by the vomiting and uneven bed.
Beside him stood an old man, with his hair unkempt and bronzed, as if he had been roasted on an iron plate, quietly watching the young man he had rescued.
It was this strange old man who saved the dying Ink Tears.
Mo Tear had been in a coma for a day and a night, and there was no sign of waking up, and the old man was not in a hurry, as if he was looking at a lover, he leaned very close to the young man who had fainted.
Several more hours passed, and while he was doing this, the old man touched the body of the half-dead man with his hands up and down, and finally found a book out of nowhere, and his eyes trembled instantly, and he was extremely excited.
With a snap, the old man slapped on the straw mat, a black circle of light quickly descended and spread around, and in the blink of an eye, the ink tears sat up like a spring, his eyes were frightened, and his body was flustered.
I don't know when, the old man has climbed into bed, quietly looking at this unlucky man covered in scars, his face is close to each other, his eyes are fixed, and after being scared out of a spirit, he crawled and hurriedly retreated in a panic.
"Little doll, don't be afraid. The old man whispered as little as he could, but his voice still rang like a bell.
Just six words. Mo Tear's face was a face of spittle, and the old man was missing a corner of his front teeth, and he was opening his mouth to laugh.
"What is this?"
Mo Tear asked in confusion, but he was still wary of the old man who seemed to be weak, since he came here, he deeply believed that ants can bite people, let alone such a strange old man.
"Little doll, who are you?" another burst of spit spewed out, and another loud voice sounded, which seemed to contain the power of piercing clouds and cracking stones.
The ink tears that were sprayed on the face of the star star, and they didn't care about these, they felt that the other party really had no malicious intentions, and said timidly, "Ink tears, dare to ask seniors, what is this?"
"Don't call me senior, it sounds weird, just call me an old ghost, as for this? ”
As he spoke, Mo Tear had already secretly looked around, and when he heard the word home, he couldn't believe it, and finally looked at his oily face and the clothes that could wash out two taels of oil, he barely believed that this level of hardship was probably even more terrifying than when he was in the Dark Cliff.
"Did you save me?" Mo Tear said in great confusion, recalling his previous experience, he couldn't help but shiver all over, and cold air came out of his back.
The old ghost snorted, looking so bland, and handed him the book that had been pulled out of him.
Mo looked at it blankly, immediately touched his chest, and after a while, with a frightened gaze again, the old man, who was afraid that he hadn't taken a bath for decades, asked even more confusedly, "Can you see this book?"
The old ghost smiled and nodded.
Mo Tear thinks it's not simple, not to mention how he saved himself, just by himself, he can see this, it is very surprising to Mo Tear, it is said that this invisible broken book can only be seen by him who has been in blood mold for eight lifetimes.
Naturally, he had tried to see the book at all, and so far no one had seen this strange broken book, let alone held it in his hand like the old man.
"It's a good kung fu, you can get him. It's your chance. The old ghost sighed deeply, and seemed to have a sense of sadness and sadness.
"What a fart, if I could set it on fire, I'd have done it a long time ago. The words in Mo Tear's heart blurted out, and that time it wasn't because of this book that he tortured him to death.
He didn't want to waste time here with this old ghost who had just crawled out of the pile of, but his body at the moment seemed to be shackled, and it was difficult to stand up, and he didn't know if it was the old ghost, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
When the old ghost heard that, he laughed even more, but after laughing, he seemed to be a different person and calmed like a pool of stagnant water, and said, "Little doll, if your words are heard by those old guys, it is estimated that they will be angry with you, but you are right, if it were me, it would have been burned a long time ago, but you can't burn it, and you can't lose it, at least until you die, it will haunt you like a ghost, it will be your nightmare." In that case, why don't you cultivate it well and conquer it. ”
Mo Tear's heart was moved by his words, it seemed that this strange old man knew this very well, as for who were those old guys in his mouth? He was not interested, and he did not have the time. He just wants to get out of here as soon as possible, find what he needs, and go back, that's all, it's that simple.
"Old..."Mo Tear really couldn't speak, so he changed his title, "Grandpa, what you said makes sense, but I'm really not interested in this book, if it comes, then it's safe, no one knows what will happen in the future, why not let it develop? But I have more important things to do at the moment, can you let me go first?"
Mo Tear said solemnly, he concluded that the reason for his loss of strength must be the ghost of this strange old man.
"Little doll, since you have something to do, I won't keep you anymore, old ghost. It's just that I haven't spoken to anyone for a long time, so I have a few more words with you. If you want to leave at this point, I say you go out, but why are you here? You have to talk to me. ”
Ink tears 1510, concisely and clearly told the old ghost the purpose of his coming here, after the old ghost listened, he just asked plainly, "Do you still want to get the blood golden lotus." ”
Mo Tear nodded affirmatively and said firmly, "Yes, I'm going." ”
The old ghost sighed, shook his head, and said with emotion, "The most bitter thing in life is the mourning realm, and the highest cultivation is the heartlessness. Debate the true path of enlightenment. ”
Although Mo Tear understood whether he understood or not, he still retorted, "If this is really the case, people will no longer be human, and I will be even more me, what is the use of this avenue?"
The old ghost laughed, and from her broken front teeth, the spittle stars fluttered like a torrential rain, laughing heartily, and said with joy, "Little doll, at such an age, but with such a heart, it is really funny." But those guys outside are something you can't deal with, so you'd better go back. ”
Mo Tear was not sad but happy when he heard this, it turned out that he was still in Miao Zhou, this matter was much easier to do, obviously his stubbornness came up again, no matter whether he was thirty-seven twenty-one, whether he had beaten or not, he rushed up and did it.
"Grandpa, I must go to the Blood Golden Lotus, even if I die there, I will go. ”
Mo Tear said very definitely that he has always been a guy who can't pull back nine cows once he recognizes something, how can he be persuaded by the old man's words?
"Little doll, aren't you afraid of death?"
"Not afraid, but I don't want to die either. I'd also like to ask you what the hell is out there. ”
The old ghost smiled lightly and said, "Little baby, old ghost, I'll talk to you today, the things outside are all born of thousands of evil thoughts, commonly known as the fierce demons and evil spirits, and the outside is just a clone of the Venerable of Mindfulness, but the level of horror is unmatched, if you go out, I'm afraid you will die." ”
Seeing that this little doll was not frightened, the old ghost continued, "A long time ago, on this Haogu Continent, there were already these things, and they continued to become stronger, and the wisdom they possessed could also be turned into human bodies, so they began to invade everywhere, trying to swallow the entire Haogu Continent, and then the eighteen gods appeared together, and they were barely driven to the mixed domain. In the slow years that followed, although there was an intrusion, it didn't seem to have set off any big waves, until now, the telekinetic clan is still evolving, but it's a pity that none of the four people knows. ”
Mo Tear was even more puzzled by what he said, the other party was so powerful, how did an old man like you who didn't take a bath save him.
"Grandpa, if I hadn't died, I would have come back here and take you out. Mo said with tears.
"Forget it, I'm used to living here. What are you going out for?" said the old ghost.
"Don't you have any relatives or friends?" asked Mo Tear.
The old ghost was stunned for a moment, his eyes looked at the book he took from Mo Tear's body softly, and muttered, "There used to be, but those old guys were too unrighteous to leave me here, they will leave first, and when I see them soon, I must beat them severely." ”
From that flat tone, Mo Tear made it clear a deep sadness. He guessed that most of the old man's relatives and friends had gone west. Ink tears didn't know how to talk.
Looking at the old man's appearance carefully, he looked like he was only six or seven years old, but he knew that if he judged people by his appearance here, he might not be able to live until now. It's like when she first came, a dragon who looked six or seven years old, who would have thought that she would live for more than 100,000 years.
"Little doll, if you can meet me here, it can be regarded as a kind of fate between you and me. You wait for me here, and I'll go back as soon as I go. The old ghost pulled his mouth, revealing his two black and yellow mutilated front teeth, and after a simple smile, he disappeared in place in an instant.
Mo tear quickly rubbed his eyes, he didn't believe his eyes all the time, are all the masters so strange? Is it so ordinary? Real people don't show their faces, they don't show their faces, and they don't show their faces, and he has a deep understanding of this sentence.
It's also strange to say, Mo Tear has two masters, four senior brothers, and two senior sisters. But most of his life experience was not dictated to him. Rather, it was his own personal experience, most of which was a lesson in exchange for pain and life. In this regard, he often only uses three words to evaluate, and the thief is unlucky.
Maybe it was because when he was a child, he had a stubborn character of not being afraid of heaven and earth, being naughty and mischievous, going to the house to expose tiles, and going to the lake to catch turtles, so that he could support himself in so much pain and never gave up the hope of life.
Someone once said that the reason why a person lives is nothing more than two things, first, there are still people and things in the world that you are nostalgic for, and second, there is still hope in your heart.
At that time, he completely left behind the nature that was difficult to eradicate when he was a child, and it was not until he later met the grinning Lin Xiaomu and the honest and honest Gou Jian that he changed little by little.
Thinking about it at this moment, he has lived for decades, he didn't know what suffering was when he was a child, and then he didn't know what happiness was, and it was only now that he understood that there is joy in suffering and suffering in life.
Soon after, the old ghost with missing front teeth returned, still looking like he hadn't bathed for decades, but holding a blood-red lotus flower in his hand.
"Little doll, this is what you want, there is only this one in the world...... I'll send you out. ”
Mo Tear didn't speak, but his heart was full of gratitude, he carefully took the lotus canopy, put it on his chest, and followed his thin figure, slowly walking out of the dilapidated house.
Along the way, there was no bloody and terrifying picture imagined by Mo Tears, everywhere the old man went, he grew flowers step by step, seemingly weak body, but his steps were as light as water.
It didn't take long for Mo Tear to walk out of this place of death, and along the way he kept persuading the old ghost to go back with him, he believed that Gou Jian, a simple silly boy, would take good care of the old man, but the old devil smiled and didn't answer.
At this moment, when it was time to part, the old ghost slowly stretched out his hand to say goodbye, and asked him why he didn't leave here, and his answer was still so plain, he was used to staying here, and it would be troublesome to go out.
Mo Tear originally wanted to persuade him, but in the end, seeing him constantly shaking his head and waving goodbye, he had no choice but to turn around and leave.
There is one thing that Mo Tear doesn't know, when he left, the old ghost has been standing in place, quietly watching his distant back, and has not left for a long time.
Finally, the old ghost turned around and shook his head, and said to himself, "Little doll, live well." Although those old guys are really strong in life. But I'm an old ghost, trust you. Old fellows, you have fallen so easily! Pity me, hold on here!"
Finally his short, lonely figure disappeared into the darkness.
