Chapter 173: I Am a Flame
Crunch...
The doors of the nine-story tower were pushed open by us, and a lot of dust fell overhead. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The decoration inside the tower is simple, with a long table in the center, a dozen round stools on either side, and other than that. There are only wine jars placed on the east and west walls.
The second master asked: Is there still wine here?
The ancestor said: It has long been evaporated.
Hai Bo has opinions about the ancestor from beginning to end, anyway, what the ancestors said, I still don't know who is right and who is wrong, he asked the ancestor at this moment: If we all die in the Tianshan Mountains, then how can we find the human king scripture?
The ancestor was stunned for a moment, turned around, and said: We are all dead here, we can still look for the Renwang Sutra, the problem is that it will never be possible to go out again, understand?
The look on Haiber's face was puzzled, he obviously didn't understand. He's handsome in Ba.
"Abu is dead, and although he seems to be alive and well now, he will definitely not be able to get out of the Tianshan Realm, and if he walks out of the Tianshan Mountains, he will definitely die. Because he was already dead. Now he is only balanced by the mysterious power within the Tianshan Mountains to balance his mind. β
I understand the meaning of the ancestor's words.
If the situation is critical, we will all die here, this kind of death, real death! But when we die, we don't die for the time being, but continue to live as if we were a living person. But we can't leave the Tien Shan.
If I am trapped in the Tianshan Mountains and cannot go out for eternity, I think it is more terrible than death. Now that I think about what the ancestor said, it makes sense, but when I left, the ghost eye didn't give me a chance.
If the ghost eye gives me a chance to pick up my body, then I can still live out of the Tianshan Mountains. If the ghost eye doesn't give me a chance, out of the Tianshan Mountain, it will be time for me Liu Mingbu to close my eyes forever.
"There's dry wood here, and a fire can be made, right?" The uncle in the suit saw the firewood placed in the corner of the room and asked everyone.
The ancestor said: There is a charcoal stove over there. You can make a fire, let's boil some boiling water and eat something.
Now that the sky is getting brighter, everyone is a little hungry, and before eating, everyone sits around the stove, while baking the fire, while observing the decoration of this floor.
"Don't look at it, this used to be a lama temple, but now the old lama is dead and there is no successor, so this nine-story tower is vacant." The ancestor saw that we were always puzzled, and said indifferently.
"Oh, so?" No one paid attention to the ancestor, only I took a word myself.
It was quiet in the house. There was only the crackling sound of the wood burning, and it was at this moment that there was a knock on the door of the nine-story tower.
Bell, bell, bell...
Bell, bell, bell...
It sounded like a gentle knock on the door with the knuckles of the fingers, and the tone was very gentle, and it was obvious from the tone that the person was not acute.
The five of us looked at each other, and no one knew that there would be other living people in this wilderness.
The old ancestor squinted his eyes and whispered: If it is not what I expected, it should be that the old lama has returned.
We were stunned at the same time. Didn't the ancestor just say that the old lama died? And now it's said that the old lama is back?
I hurried over and opened the door, and sure enough, there was a man in a crimson robe and a cockcomb hat standing at the door, saluting me with one hand.
"Thisβ" I looked at the lama, who was about seventy or eighty years old, with deep wrinkles on his face, but with a kind expression.
When the old lama saw me, he said very kindly: "Hello, my name is Bradomu, is it convenient for me to go in?"
I hurriedly lined up and said, "Monk, please."
The ancestor and Bradomu looked at each other from afar, both of them smiled, and the ancestor said: Where have you been for so many years?
The old lama folded his hands and bowed to everyone, and then smiled and said: The Tianshan Mountains are bigger than the world, and I have been traveling in the Tianshan Mountains.
"Is our agreement still valid?" Old Ancestor asked.
The old lama said, "Of course it works."
Everyone was stupid, the two of them were like playing dumb riddles, you said, I said, and after I closed the door, the six of us sat down again, around the fire.
The old lama was sitting next to me, and I asked him, "Monk, aren't you cold when you wear so little?"
His forearms were also bare, and he looked red from the cold. The old lama looked up and smiled and said to me, "Stretch out your hand."
He stretched out his forearm and motioned for me to touch it, and the moment I touched it, I just felt hot!
"Wow! It's so hot! I retracted my arm and kept blowing on my fingers.
The old lama patted me on the shoulder and said, "I am not hot, you are a flame, and as long as you stick to your beliefs and beliefs, this flame will never be extinguished."
The old lama seemed to be trying to hint at me, but it wasn't as obvious.
During the meal, I specially ordered a bowl of beef noodles for the old lama, and the old lama was grateful, and he kept expressing his gratitude to me with his hands folded.
"Old friend, is that thing still there?" As soon as he finished eating, the ancestor asked coldly.
The old lama's face, which had always been kind, suddenly changed a little, but after a moment the smile resurfaced, he nodded, and said, "It's still there."
"Can I take it then?" Old Ancestor asked.
The old lama thought for a moment and said, "I'll go and have a look first, and you can sit down for a while."
After speaking, the old lama walked towards the second floor, he walked very decisively, very resolutely, at a glance he knew that he lived here all the year round, and he was very familiar with this.
After the old lama left, I hurriedly asked the old ancestor: Isn't he dead?
Old Ancestor nodded and said, "I didn't say he was alive.
"But he's no different from a living person!" I asked again.
The ancestor said: This is the mysterious power in the Tianshan Mountain, the people who come to the Dragon Cave of the Tianshan Mountain, basically will die, if you are lucky enough to find the King of the People, or if you are lucky enough to get the help of the ghost eye, you can also live if you leave the Tianshan Mountain. But if you don't have that kind of luck, you can only stay in the Tianshan Mountains for the rest of your life.
When the uncle in the suit heard this, he slapped the table and said: Damn! This...
"Hmph, I've told you twice, you have to come, my apprentice has ghost eyes, it doesn't mean that you also have ghost eyes, what can you do one by one?"
"Don't say anything else, if the ghost eye really helps me, I won't let everyone die in the Tianshan Mountains, there are a few people when we come, and there must be a few people when we leave, and none of them can be missing!" I say it to you firmly.
This is not to stabilize the morale of the military, that's what I think in my heart.
"Okay, you're all full, just find a place and put on a sleeping bag to rest for a while." As soon as the ancestor shook his hand, he didn't care about everyone, and at this moment he stood by the window of the first floor of the tower, looking out through the gap.
I also followed the ancestor and looked outside.
At this moment, I took advantage of everyone's inattention and asked in a low voice: Ancestor, what is that finger you gave me to eat?
When I said this, I deliberately glanced at the index finger of the ancestor's left hand, and it looked intact at the moment.
The ancestor said: It is a piece of meat on my body.
"What are you going to do with your meat for me?" I just had a full meal, and I had a faint feeling of nausea, eating human flesh? Ancestor, this is not clear, it makes me sick to my stomach.
The ancestor sighed, asked me for a cigarette, and said: Because I am very likely to die in the Tianshan Mountains, my physique is different from yours, if I die, I will never live. So I've passed on some of my skills to you.
"What's in one finger?"
"You'll find out later."
The ancestor didn't seem to want to speak, I don't know if he was worried about what the old lama said, I said: Ancestor, you go and rest for a while, and when the monk comes down, I will call you.
Old Ancestor shook his head, still full of melancholy.
I found that before entering the Tianshan Mountains, the ancestor looked strategizing and confident, but after entering the Tianshan Mountain, the ancestor became very melancholy, and often had many helpless expressions on his face. His reaction made me feel a little more afraid of the Tianshan Dragon Cave.
I lit a cigarette and stood at the window, smoking slowly, when suddenly I saw a lama in a crimson robe and a cockscomb hat in the snow that stretched for thousands of miles outside.
Quickly took out the binoculars, and I fixed my eyes to see if this was not the old lama who had just spoken to me? Didn't he go upstairs? This nine-story tower is surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and the only place to go down is the gate next to us, how did he get out?
I patted the ancestor and asked cautiously: Ancestor, how many lamas are there in this Tianshan Mountain?
