Chapter 249: Morning Bell and Dusk Drum
This is a world full of peach blossoms. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
On the hills, by the streams, and in the fields, there are peach trees everywhere. The world of Taoyuan, where there is no end in sight, is completely covered in pink.
Ye Shu walked forward slowly, feeling the petals rubbing against his cheeks, and it took a while to come back to his senses.
"What kind of place is this? An unopened forbidden land? ”
Ye Shu muttered to himself, looked back at the way he came, and couldn't help but be surprised, because there was no way at all, and there was a low mountain cliff in the back, where was there any hole?
He hurriedly walked back, frowning and groping for the rock wall, but could not find the entrance to the cave at all.
The hole when I came by myself is gone!
Formation?
Ye Shu was secretly shocked in his heart, knowing that he had arrived at a terrible place, this Taoyuan that looked extremely beautiful was probably a mysterious formation.
But he couldn't find a way out, so he had to step into the peach orchard to check it out.
There are paths in the peach orchard, overgrown with weeds and paved with flower petals, and it seems that no one has walked on them for many years.
Ye Shu walked along the path, this time he crossed the stream, passed through the peach blossom forest, and climbed several high mountains, but found nothing.
There seems to be only peach blossoms here.
At the same time, a huge bell rang, and I don't know where it came from, it rang again and again, which actually calmed Ye Shu's mind.
It's like the sound of the temple bells, accompanied by Zen singing, which puts the entire Taoyuan in a dream.
Ye Shu was aimless, and when he heard the bell, he naturally went to find the source, looking forward to meeting some living people.
However, the bell was nowhere to be found, and Ye Shu couldn't locate the location of the sound source at all.
After a while, the bell disappeared, and Ye Shu stepped into a peach forest halfway up the mountainside, stepping on pink petals, smelling the fragrance of flowers in the air, and walking slowly.
His body and mind were completely relaxed at this time, and the initial vigilance had disappeared unconsciously, as if he had come to Gentle Township, and all his defenses had been removed.
It's a relaxing hideaway.
After a short walk, a spring appeared in the forest, and the water of the spring bubbled down the mountain with flower petals.
Ye Shu took a sip, and suddenly felt refreshed, full of strength, and amazing.
He rested by the spring and then went down the mountain.
I don't know how long I have walked this way, Ye Shu has been looking for people, but he has been looking for people to no avail.
On the contrary, the sound of drums sounded, which made him quite stunned.
What does it mean that it was a bell before, but this time it is a drum?
Ye Shu couldn't find the source of the sound, so he could only continue to walk around, and I don't know how long it took, the bell rang again, vast and vast, enveloping the heavens and the earth.
After a while, the drums sounded again, with a low sense of ending.
In just one day, Ye Shu actually heard the sound of bells and drums seven times, and the sky was getting dark, Ye Shu had to find a soft peach blossom woodland to rest.
He thought about the bells and drums in his head, and suddenly the word "morning bell and dusk drum" sounded.
Ringing the bell in the morning and beating the drum in the evening is the practice of the temple, and the morning bell and dusk drum represent the passing of the day.
Thinking like this, Ye Shu couldn't help but be surprised, today he had heard the morning bell and dusk drum seven times, could it be that seven days had passed?
Besides, I didn't enter the peach orchard in the morning, and if there was a morning bell and a dusk drum in the morning, would it be eight, nine, or even ten days past?
Thinking about it, he smiled dumbly, his brain hole was too big, too blind to think.
As soon as the laughter fell, the morning bell rang again, echoing through the forest, and the bell representing vitality tore through the darkness.
In the Misty Forest, it was daytime at this time, and the March sun was shining, and most of the students of Spring Hunting had a harvest and returned to school under the leadership of their teachers.
The students majoring in Taoism gathered together for camping, laughing and laughing, but the senior brothers in the ink study were full of sadness.
"It's been a week, and Senior Brother Ye hasn't come back yet, it seems that he really broke into the forbidden land and was eaten by demon beasts."
"Teacher Xue Li said that he had tried his best, but he could only run away in the face of Jiaolong, Senior Brother Ye was near Jiaolong's lair, I am afraid he had been taken away by Jiaolong."
On this side, the senior brother was worried, and on the other side, more than ten Tianjiao were packing up their things and returning to the academy, all smiling and in a good mood.
"Qianshan, it's been a week, Ye Shuruo is still alive, he must have come back, he hasn't come back yet, it means that he has been eaten by Jiaolong."
"Yes, that dog thing, we killed two people, we were really careless, I didn't expect him to lead us to the dragon's lair."
Xue Qianshan listened to the discussion, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a sneer: "He will definitely die, but unfortunately I didn't kill it with my own hands...... Liu Youyou came over, don't speak. ”
Everyone put away their smiles and their faces calmed.
Not far away, Liu Youyou's eyes were red and ran over: "Senior brothers, help me, let's go in and look for it again, Teacher Xue Li said that he was missing in the dragon's nest ......"
Liu Youyou spoke, and tears couldn't help but fall all the time. Xue Qianshan and his party glanced at each other, all pretending to be sympathetic.
"Youyou, we've been looking for you for many days, and we've been to the vicinity of the dragon's nest, you can't force us into the lair, the teacher doesn't dare to go in."
"Senior Sister Liu, forget it, every year there are students who don't know the height of the sky and disappear, and none of them have ever been found, no matter how hard you try, it's in vain."
"Everyone is going back, the spring hunt is over, and if we don't leave, wait for those powerful demon beasts to wake up from hibernation, we will suffer."
Everyone persuaded Liu Youyou to give up, Liu Youyou cried non-stop, turned around and ran towards the Misty Forest again.
Xue Qianshan hurriedly grabbed her arm: "Enough, Youyou, you can't go to death, go back with us first, and I will send someone to help you find it." ”
Liu Youyou shook off his hand and couldn't help but squat down and cry bitterly.
The bright sun of the secret realm does not illuminate the darkness of the misty forest.
In the peach orchard, it was already night, Ye Shu listened with his ears pricked up, and heard the dusk drum again.
Counting, after he entered the peach orchard, he had already heard the morning bell and dusk drum eight times, and according to this gap, I am afraid that there will be ten morning bells and twilight drums in one day.
Ye Shu knew that the situation was wrong, but he really couldn't have a sense of crisis in his heart, it was like a home, which made him completely relaxed.
At some point, he gradually fell asleep, lying on the petals, and slept very peacefully, as if he had returned to his mother's womb.
When he woke up, the morning bell was ringing, and a new day began.
Ye Shu continued to look for people, even if a thatched hut appeared, he could die of excitement.
However, day after day, he searched for more than a month, but he couldn't find a single hair.
When he was thirsty, he drank stream water, and when he was hungry, he ate mountain fruits, and he didn't feel hungry this month.
There are a lot of small animals in the forest, but Ye Shu didn't kill them, this is a peaceful world, and it's not good to kill.
And within a month, he has figured out the law of the morning bell and dusk drum, which is indeed ten times a day, according to the temple, that is, one day is counted as ten days.
Ye Shu's heart was also completely relaxed, he no longer forcibly found people, he cut firewood, moved stones, built a wooden house at the foot of a mountain, and became a primitive person.
This is lonely and boring, Ye Shu has been telling himself in his heart that he can't relax, but he can't control himself at all, every time the morning bell and dusk drum ring, he becomes more and more comfortable.
Two months later, Ye Shu integrated his body and mind into the peach orchard, sitting and watching the clouds roll up every day, chopping wood, picking fruits and enjoying flowers, and living a leisurely life.
At the same time, he found that his Taoist skills were growing, and he was running through the forest with his steps, playing with rabbits like a child.
It stands to reason that with his current pace, he can't catch up with a running rabbit, but after a moment of chasing, he actually caught the rabbit.
This made him stunned, he didn't borrow the power of ghosts and gods, but Bugang was so fast, this peach orchard was amazing.
Ye Shu was like discovering a new continent, and finally found something to do, he hurriedly cultivated the Dao technique, and in front of the wooden house, he took out the yellow talisman he carried with him and cultivated the thunder channeling technique.
Ye Shu could only lead the thunder technique, and at this moment, he cultivated with a talisman, and slowly fell into a state of suspended animation.
Even he didn't realize that there were already tiny thunderbolts flowing in the space around him.
