Chapter 972: Something Strange in the Forest

Strange to say, since Jiang Ning possessed this little sheep, the fat sheep and him were not close at all.

That's probably the case, if you eat grass from the east, I'll eat from the west, and if you sleep on the south side of the sheepfold, I'll sleep on the north side, and neither of us will have to deal with anyone.

Jiang Ning, who had spent more than a month in such a situation, didn't know why he woke up early this morning and this fat guy would press on his body.

The days that followed were even more difficult.

During the day, the owner would take her only two sheep to graze on the hillside and drink water from the stream.

After the wind is cleared, she regularly cleans the sheepfold and then leaves with enough forage.

Jiang Ning wanted to know who that woman really was, but like the woman he had met before, her face was also blurry, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see it clearly.

Although I can't see people clearly, I can still see my body clearly.

The whirlpool on the man's face was white, and the whirlpool on the face of Lujie's aunt was black.

"The color of the vortex represents Lu Jie's own perception and attitude towards these two people," Jiang Ning said in his heart: "With this person's figure, she must be Lu Jie's mother." ”

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning was a little puzzled again, "However, there is no sheepfold near the small courtyard of the farmhouse, and no matter which one it is, there will not be only two sheep?"

Although he thinks so, he is just a sheep now, although you can't imagine the intelligence of this sheep, but Jiang Ning firmly remembered his duty, he entered this misty forest to be a spectator, not really to change anything, even if he wants to change, it is to save Na Lu Jie's life at a certain point in time, other than that, no matter what happens, it is none of his business.

The comfortable days of eating grass, drinking water,, and sleeping passed day by day, and sometimes Jiang Ning felt that this was good, so comfortable that he didn't want to be a person again.

But he wasn't a real sheep after all.

When the good days are over, he will immediately return to reality.

The fat sheep seemed to have tasted the sweetness, and would come over every night, treat Jiang Ning as a meat cushion, and sleep on him.

Jiang Ning was also very helpless, the little lamb he possessed had very little strength, and there was no room for resistance at all, so he could only be ravaged by others.

But to be honest, in addition to being a little numb when half of his body was pressed by the fat guy, it was still quite warm when the night breeze blew in at night, and slowly, he also accepted it.

In this way, sometimes in the daytime, the dead fat man would come over and arch his body with his huge head, and stand with him to eat grass and drink water.

When the wind is outside, when he finds that he is running too fast, he will also stop and wait for Jiang Ning in front.

It was the same on this day, when the woman opened the door of the circle and took the two of them out to let out the wind, the fat sheep ran out as soon as she was happy, and it was more urgent than the breeze in the mountains!

"Damn, you are the second flexible fat man this Sword Immortal has ever seen in his life!" Jiang Ning bleated twice, and chased after him.

"Slow down, slow down!" the woman ran after her, smiling and running after her, carrying her whip in the back.

Below the sheepfold was a valley, Jiang Ning ran wantonly, not thinking about anything superfluous, only feeling that although he could only eat grass during this time, he lived an incomparably peaceful and joyful life.

"This person, when he really has no desires and no desires, he is the happiest!" Jiang Ning wandered on the hillside, the sun shone on him during the day, shining warmly on his body, for a moment, Jiang Ning only felt that there was no more relaxed and comfortable life in this world.

All the way to the other end of the valley on the hillside, Jiang Ning slowly stopped.

In the past, when he ran to the edge of the big stone in front, the fat sheep would jump up, twist his body, and condescendingly wait for Jiang Ning and the master who were chasing after him, and when they finally caught up, the fat sheep proudly shook his fat and short tail and circled around Jiang Ning and his master.

But today, he doesn't.

With his back to Jiang Ning and his master, he stood alone at the end of the flat boulder, looking forward to the place in front of the valley that he had come to see almost every day, but had never set foot on.

This time, he didn't wag his tail, but Jiang Ning felt the desire in the fat sheep, the desire for freedom, for the new world.

The fat sheep turned his head, looked at Jiang Ning, and then looked at his master, and then jumped away, leaving the big stone, and stepping into the land he had never set foot on, but had longed for a long time.

If Jiang Ning was still in his own body, he would definitely smile lightly and then turn to leave.

Every sheep has its own dream, and the dream of the fat sheep is freedom, wind and rain, the boundless land and the distance that has never been set foot in.

Is it really better than a sheepfold where there is plenty of food, rain and snow are not encroached, there are people to take care of it every day, and there are people to accompany you every day?

There are countless predators in the mountains and forests, and dangers lurk everywhere.

You may not be able to find the eaves when it rains, and you may not be able to find food when it snows.

Sleep in the endless darkness and cold at night, and be vigilant during the day, dodging hunters' bows and traps, and beware of wolves and tigers.

But isn't that really bad?

Not really.

Walk all over the mountains and rivers, taste the wonderful taste of herb pulp, bask in the sun during the day, watch the stars at night, exercise a vigorous posture like the wind, and dance with the beautiful goats in the wild......

There is no right or wrong in everything in the world, it is just a simple choice.

If you stick to your choice and love it from the bottom of your heart, then you have made the right choice.

If you are unsure, if you hesitate, if you regret it, if you doubt, then your choice is wrong.

Jiang Ning has always believed in one point, he has chosen, go on, whether he goes to the spring flowers or the bottomless abyss, as long as you don't regret it, then you have succeeded.

Therefore, Jiang Ning is still very pleased with the fat sheep's choice to have the courage to step out of the comfort zone and let go of himself.

After all, after getting along for a while, this fat guy has also brought a lot of happiness to himself.

Although sometimes because of his size, he will inevitably be bullied by this guy, but Jiang Ning still feels that he has a lot of fun getting along with each other for a while.

"Come back, you're back!"

However, after the same thing happens, some people are happy, and some people may not be happy.

Now, for example, the mistress was waving her whip and criing out with great anger and sorrow, hoping that the fat fellow would come back when he heard his cries!

However, in the distance, after hearing the sound, the fat sheep only paused slightly, then sped up and disappeared into the distant mountain forest.

The woman ran briskly up the boulder, but found that she could not keep up with the fat sheep, first shouting, then cursing, and at last she crouched there alone, holding her knees and sobbing quietly.

Jiang Ning walked over slowly, and gently arched the woman with his head, which was considered comforting.

The woman seemed to be touched by Jiang Ning's behavior, the mood fluctuations were more intense, the ups and downs of the chest were accompanied by low sobs, the pear blossoms brought rain, although she couldn't see her face, Jiang Ning still experienced that kind of pitiful feeling.

The woman hugged Jiang Ning, hugged his sheep head in her arms, and refused to part for a long time!

"Ahem, ahem!"

Being held so desperately by a woman with a good figure that exploded, even if Jiang Ning was still a sheep now, he felt that his blood was surging, the blood flow was accelerating, and his blood was spurting, and he almost didn't squirt out two lines of nosebleeds.

Just when Jiang Ning was entangled and happy in the woman's arms, the woman's emotions seemed to slowly calm down again.

One person hugged it like this, and when the sky gradually darkened, the woman stood up, put hemp rope around Jiang Ning's neck, and led it back to the sheepfold.

That night, the woman added so much forage to the sheepfold that he even ate berries that he had scarcely been able to eat for the past two months.

But Jiang Ning was not happy because he was tied with hemp rope around his neck. 127

This is both compensation and a cost.

In the past, when they went out to run the mountains together, the women would never tie hemp rope around their necks.

But since the fat sheep ran away, the woman would come to the sheepfold every day to see Jiang Ning, but for a long time, Jiang Ning was locked up in the sheepfold like this, and the woman didn't take him out to let the wind out.

Then about a month later, the woman came, bringing with her a beautifully made neck sleeve inlaid with a metal ring, and at one end of the metal ring was a long hemp rope.

As soon as the woman came in, she couldn't help but put the neck sleeve on Jiang Ning, opened the door of the sheepfold, led Jiang Ning, and went out happily.

On that day, the woman's face was filled with a happy smile, but Jiang Ning's heart accumulated a strong haze.

As a spectator, he naturally would not casually leave the protagonist of this story, that is, the woman, but as a sheep or a friend, Jiang Ning felt distrust and unfreedom.

For a moment, even he wanted to run away while the wind was blowing.

At this point in the story, Jiang Ning suddenly lost control of the lamb's body.

That night, the lamb obediently followed the hostess. Step by step, he walked back to the sheepfold and held his own weight.

In the years that followed, he accompanied the hostess every day, and although the hostess sometimes felt sad at the thought of the lost fat sheep, most of the time she still had a happy smile on her face.

Finally, one day, the lamb also grew to the size of a fat sheep and so robust.

On a very ordinary night, he smashed through the wooden fence of the sheepfold with all his might, rushed out of the sheepfold, and never returned.

The picture came to an abrupt end, and Jiang Ning's consciousness returned to his body.

Almost subconsciously, he caught a big fat rabbit from the small world, skinned it, cleaned it, and roasted it with a real fire to eat.

"Wow, wow, wow!" Jiang Ning gnawed on the rabbit meat, his mouth was full of oil, and he only felt that he was twice as happy.

"Don't eat a little more meat," Jiang Ning said in his heart: "This sword immortal will be abolished!"

After eating, he subconsciously touched his neck, and Jiang Ning realized that the neck sleeve was still on his neck.

Jiang Ning almost instinctively took the neck sleeve off his neck.

"Damn," Jiang Ning wiped his mouth and said in his heart: "I originally thought it was a happy story, but the style of painting changed, and it suddenly became a little scary, did it?"

Saying this, Jiang Ning still put away the neck ring with his hand.

If there is a book, it is long, and if there is no book, it is short.

The next day, Jiang Ning spent the next day in peace.

He wandered aimlessly through the forest, trying to see if he could trigger something he hadn't seen before, but for a whole day and a night, nothing happened.

But when Jiang Ning estimated that the second day was coming, the sky was still dark, there was not even a single star, and there was no sign of the day coming.

Jiang Ning originally thought that his perception of time had deviated, so he waited patiently.

However, a few hours passed, and the next night was coming, and the sky above the forest still did not mean to light up.

Jiang Ning faintly felt that something had happened unconsciously.

At first, this was just a feeling of Jiang Ning, but later, it evolved into an eerie energy fluctuation, which spread throughout the forest, not directly causing harm to people, but to some extent giving people an extremely uncomfortable feeling.

This discomfort grew stronger as the black fog that permeated the forest grew.

At first, Jiang Ning didn't want to pay attention to this, because although this kind of power fluctuation was uncomfortable, the degree was relatively shallow, and it didn't have much impact on Jiang Ning.

But as time passes, the fluctuations of this energy become stronger and stronger, and the density becomes more and more intense.

Jiang Ning began to gradually feel that his mood became a little nervous and irritable, and there was even a faint desire for bloodlust and killing flowing in his body.

Of course, it is impossible for this level of interference to really affect Jiang Ning's mood at the moment, because his state of mind is still there after all, in addition, whether it is Qingxuan, the Southern Tang Library, or the Lanque Gate, there are quite a lot of pure heart methods.

This kind of mental trick specially used to restrain poisons or other demonic methods that interfere with the state of mind is found in almost every righteous path sect.

After all, on the path of cultivation, there will occasionally be a Heavenly Demon Tribulation!

The Heavenly Demon who attracts people's seven emotions and six desires, kills them or goes crazy, is the main force of the Heavenly Demon Tribulation.

When cultivators are cultivating to the next level, they encounter most of the wind, fire, and thunder tribulations, but there are also some people who are unlucky, and they will encounter the Heavenly Demon Tribulation as soon as they come up.

In the face of this kind of calamity, people whose mood is not high enough, or whose concentration is not good enough, can easily be tricked.

Even those cultivators with good concentration who were able to come out of the Heavenly Demon Tribulation intact, they wouldn't be able to produce four out of ten.

With such a tragic proportion, the masters created, as long as they don't die young, almost all of them have become independent figures.

It is said that when the Sparrow Fairy advanced to Daohe, she encountered the so-called Heavenly Demon Tribulation, and she is still alive and well, which naturally means that she has succeeded, but what happened to her in the Heavenly Demon Tribulation back then, she never talked about it in front of people.

Don't say that others don't know, even Dong Xun, a daughter-in-law, doesn't know.

Because of Tong Fatzi's teachings, Jiang Ning still attaches great importance to this aspect of the state of mind, so Jiang Ning doesn't know how many similar heart methods, heart tricks and heart purification techniques have been practiced.

One of the most powerful is the Sutra of the Past Lives.

Someone is about to ask, isn't the Sutra of Death used to transcend the souls of the dead?

In fact, the classic-level mental method has many functions, how can it just have the ability to gradually transcend the soul alone, could it be that when those great monks fought with others, they could overtake the living people by reciting the Sutra of the Past Lives?

As for why the Buddhist scriptures appeared in Qingxuan, this Jiang Ning didn't know, but he heard from Tong Zhi when he was young that it was passed down by Mu Tianzun.

In fact, if the Sutra of Past Lives is cultivated to the realm of Dacheng, its power is no worse than that of the Wood Emperor Sutra cultivated by Jiang Ning, but it needs the corresponding Buddhist teachings and scriptures to match, and Jiang Ning can't do this.

Therefore, when he later went up the mountain and was passed on to the Sutra of the Past Life, he only roughly learned the part of the scripture about the transcendent soul, and Jiang Ning didn't pay too much attention to the rest.

There are too many things he knows, and some of them are not suitable for him, even if they are good, he can only give them up.

Tong Zhi often said that it is more important to give than to take, and it is more important to give up than to take, there is a law between heaven and earth, that is, when you have, other things will retreat by themselves, and when you lose, what you need will appear one after another.

If the thing you hold in your arms is terrible, but you don't want to give it up, then something better will never come.

But if you dare to give up, dare to let go of the people or things that make you happy, then, the vacated space, there will be more beautiful people or things to come in and fill your gap.

The so-called renunciation is not a depressed and escaping attitude, but a resolute and positive state of mind.

Dare to give up bad things is an excellent attitude to the future!

Far from it, all in all, in short, Jiang Ning has quite a strong resistance to this kind of power that disturbs people's mood and affects people's temperament.

However, Jiang Ning originally thought that after this kind of power appeared, there should always be a time of saturation, so he didn't care too much about it at first.

But as the power grew until the entire forest was completely covered with it, the trees that seemed to be normal became a little hideous.

If the tree is like this, how can a person be worthy?

Although this energy was far from being able to reach a level that Jiang Ning could not bear, he had already been affected to a certain extent, and if he didn't solve it as soon as possible, even he himself couldn't guarantee that he would be spared!
