Chapter 3: Turning a Blind Eye
"Wow!"
The young man surnamed Li was frightened by the strange scene in front of him, he cried loudly, turned around and ran, stumbling in the direction of Linshan Town, Xu Yan could see that the other party's pants had water stains, and he could faintly smell a foul smell.

Because the boy surnamed Li is the closest, he also listens to Xu Yan's story most really, and even the strange gap on the pie he can see most clearly, so he is scared the most, although the other teenagers are also scared, it is not to the point of being scared away.
"I remembered that it was my little black who bit my big cake. ”
Taking a bite of the big cake, Xu Yan said to the teenagers around him: "Let's go, let's go into the mountain, I remembered it wrong just now, the story of painting the cake was not told by the mother-in-law of the Zhang family, it was said by my master in the morning, it is not scary at all, the mother-in-law of the Zhang family is buried in the soil, and she can't tell the story." ”
Hearing Xu Yan say this, the other teenagers breathed a sigh of relief, and they were really frightened by Xu Yan just now.
The young man called Tiezhu smiled bitterly and said, "Xu Yan, can't your memory be better, if it was the story told by the mother-in-law of the Zhang family, I would have to run away." ”
"Yes, Brother Yan, your story scared Xiaohua to death!"
The little girl named Xiaohua patted her heart and complained, and then a group of young people went into the mountain talking and laughing, but their voices were very low, afraid of startling away the fat hares.
Eating flatbread, Xu Yan walked expressionlessly through a black shadow that floated out of a tomb and could not be seen by others, a wry smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and whispered: "Ghost, who believes it......"
The reason why he has been friends with pigs since he was nine years old, and why he imagined himself as a pig, Xu Yan's hardships are unknown to others except the old Taoist priest, because only the little black pig in the Taoist pigsty will turn a deaf ear to the ghosts that occasionally appear in front of him.
When he is a pig, Xu Yanwei is to practice the ability to turn a blind eye!
If he couldn't ignore those ghosts and ghosts, Xu Yan would have gone crazy a long time ago, it was a young child, a child who could see ghosts and impermanence, a child who had been tormented by visions in his eyes for many years, and the only means to protect himself was just that.
After six years of hard work, Xu Yan can really turn a blind eye, at least when he doesn't want to see it, he will automatically ignore those ghosts floating around in his eyes, in Xu Yan's opinion, it's all thanks to the little wild boar that can't grow up.
In Chengyun Temple, not only Xu Yan is an anomaly, but even the little black pig that doesn't grow big is an anomaly, but the wild boar in the mountains will not grow big, and the adult wild boar, even if the tiger encounters it, must retreat.
In the deep mountains, there are not only wild boars, but also tigers, leopards, and wolves.
Lao Tomb Mountain belongs to the branch of the Wanheng Mountain Range, here is not far from Linshan Town, no one really dares to enter the deep mountains alone, only in a companionship, in order to ensure safety, if a person faces a tiger or leopard, even if it is a strong man, it is difficult to escape the fate of the beast's mouth for food.
For a group of young people, the old grave hill is too big, except for the small half of the hillside facing south, which is a cemetery, the rest of the place is all barren forest, and the deeper you go, the taller the trees will become, and some of the cols can even be shaded by the shade of the trees, which looks eerie.
Perhaps it was because the previous boy surnamed Li shouted too loudly, until noon, a group of teenagers who entered the mountain did not catch any game, but the firewood was cut a lot, and the shadow of the hare was not seen in one.
"Unfortunately, I can't eat rabbit meat today. ”
Tie Zhu angrily stuck the firewood knife on the ground, wiped the sweat on his head and said.
"It's all to blame on the Li family boy, if he doesn't shout, we won't see a single hare. ”
The rest of the young people were all disappointed, and some people began to complain that the young man surnamed Li who was scared away had already walked the mountain road for half a day, and no one dared to go deeper.
"Brother Yan still wants to go into the mountain?" Xiaohua tiptoed, looked at the quiet jungle in the distance, and asked with some uneasiness.
"Well, I'll go look for ginseng, and if you don't come back when it's almost dark, you can go first, don't wait for me. ”
Entering the mountains with these young people, Xu Yan never hides anything, these children all know that Xu Yan will always go into the mountains to look for ginseng, in order to regulate the body of the old Taoist, no one is surprised.
Tie Zhu saw that it was still early, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Let's go deeper, the hare hiding in the deep mountains will not be startled by the shouting outside the mountain." ”
Since someone took the lead, the rest of the teenagers naturally agreed, so more than a dozen teenagers continued to move forward, but this time Xu Yan walked in front.
At this level in the deep mountain area, it is very easy to encounter fierce beasts, Xu Yan's body does not look strong, in fact, it is much stronger than others, the flying stone kung fu taught to him by the old Taoist priest does not require a few days or months of practice, Xu Yan has practiced for nearly ten years.
Throwing stones may seem commonplace, but there's a lot to be said here.
Not only arm strength, wrist strength, and even waist strength and leg strength, all require years of practice, and moving the whole body is the essence of flying stones, for which Xu Yan has endured hardships, and this hardship is not in vain, at least with his current ability, even if he faces a big eye-catching worm, he can get out of the whole body.
Xu Yan often goes into the mountains alone to look for ginseng, and the number of times he has encountered fierce beasts in the mountains is countless, so in this level of deep mountains, Xu Yan is the safest to lead the team.
After walking for another half an hour, there was a sudden movement in the grass in the distance, not by much amplitude, and it should be the trail of a small animal.
The teenagers who found the prey were all overjoyed, and they all looked nervous, whether they could eat meat today or not depends on now.
Sure enough, as the boys crept around the grass, a fat gray rabbit sprang out and jumped directly past the iron pillar, and was about to flee into another, larger grass.
Sou!
Syllable!
A small stone flew out almost with the hare's figure, and hit the rabbit's head directly, and the fat rabbit was knocked unconscious before it could hit the ground, and after a moment it was already tied to the iron pillar and carried it behind him.
"There's meat to eat!"
The teenagers cheered in surprise in a low voice, such a fat rabbit was enough to eat.
Not only were the teenagers elated, but Xu Yan, who had just hit the hare, was even more happy, not because he liked to eat rabbit meat, but because he found that near an old tree not far away, there was a strange grass with six green leaves and small red fruits on the top.
Ginseng fruit!
The fruit of the wild ginseng, Xu Yan recognized it at a glance, under the strange grass, there was at least an old ginseng that was more than a hundred years old, because at this time the strange grass was slowly moving towards the big tree on the side, it seemed that he heard the cheers of the teenagers and wanted to hide behind the tree.
Only 100-year-old ginseng will give birth to ginseng spirits, and wild ginseng with ginseng spirits will move slowly.
Between a few vertical jumps, Xu Yan hurried, the red rope on his wrist had already been untied, his left hand held down the strange grass, and his right hand quickly wrapped the red rope around the root of the strange grass, and then he took out a small shovel and carefully dug out the mountain ginseng with long roots.
Bang!
The sound of falling rocks suppressed the cheers of the teenagers, and Xu Yan, who had just taken the mountain ginseng into his arms, was also startled, he looked up, in the distance, a steep hillside sand and gravel rolling, there was a slight collapse, and in the collapse, a black cave appeared.
There had just been a heavy rain the day before yesterday, and it had been a day, and the mountain was actually almost dry, but the place where it collapsed was facing north, perhaps because of too much rain, or maybe the cave had been covered for too long, so there was a half gap in the collapse.
Collapse in the deep mountains is not uncommon, even if there is a cave, it is not strange, many wild beasts like to dig holes, such as wild bears and the like, the caves on the hillside, in Xu Yan's opinion, should have been dug by wild beasts many years ago, he didn't care.
Not only did they hit the hare, but they also dug up a mountain ginseng, and the teenagers were very satisfied with today's harvest, and Xu Yan was also very satisfied, but just when the teenagers were about to go out of the mountain, the other grass that the hare wanted to escape to appeared again.
