Chapter 77: Man Has a Thousand Faces
In the woods, Mu Xiwan was a little stunned for a while, she didn't expect that in this royal hunt, she could still see the old ancestor. But after thinking about it carefully, I can figure out that the ancestor was afraid that because he was worried about himself, he followed all the way to protect in the dark.
Thinking of his death with hatred in his previous life, and then thinking about this life, until now, there are only Mei'er and Mu Xiao around him, and the two of them are really for their own good.
My eyes were a little moist inexplicably.
But as a general, how can these fragility and weakness be seen by others?
Mu Xiwan quickly turned his head away, and when his mood was almost recovered, he turned around again and stood with his ancestor.
"This is a poisonous array, it should be someone who wants to use this poisonous array to trap someone." The Old Ancestor looked around with a thoughtful look in his eyes, and soon he continued: "I have solved all the other places, and now there is only one place left. ”
With the master's gaze, she also began to look around.
In fact, before the master appeared, she just thought that it was a simple poison, but she didn't think that this was a formation. Now I have begun to look at it seriously.
There are trees all around, and the growth of trees is naturally not changed by this formation. I'm afraid that the one who triggered this formation is somewhere else.
"Look at these trees, how different they are?"
The old ancestor stood aside, and he was not in a hurry to untie this formation, but patiently taught Mu Xi to come late.
Listening to the guidance of the old ancestor, Mu Xiwan really began to observe carefully, she walked into a tree, looked carefully, and found that the tree was no different in general, but if you look closely, you will find that the soil under the tree seems to have been planed open.
She bent down and cut the spot open with a twig, and sure enough, she saw a box buried underneath. The box was delicate, but it was open and buried, and I didn't know what was inside, but now it was empty.
Mu Xiwan didn't immediately touch it with her hands, but looked back at her master.
The old ancestor nodded, squatted beside Mu Xiwan, picked up the dead branches and rotten leaves around him with a branch, pointed to the box and said, "This kind of formation is rarely used, because it needs to be arranged here in advance, and it is very laborious. This formation uses the principle of the Bagua diagram, selecting eight directions, corresponding to their respective hexagrams, and burying these boxes and Gu worms in the soil. Because it is in the woods, it is the soil that is used, and the wood is in the soil, and this poisonous array can naturally be dissipated through the trees invisibly. ”
Mu Xiwan seemed to have an epiphany, looked at the trees, and interjected: "Therefore, the wood absorbs nutrients from the soil, and finally emits it through the leaves, and this poisonous gas will naturally invisibly make the people who inadvertently walk in be tricked, and the gods will not know it." ”
Nodding with satisfaction, the old ancestor stood up and stretched.
"So this formation ......"
She turned around thoughtfully, she couldn't cut down all these trees, it would be too laborious, even a little stupid.
And didn't the ancestor just say that the other formations have been destroyed, obviously the way to break the formation is very simple.
She stood in place, holding her arm in one hand and her chin in the other, and for a while, she really couldn't turn around.
The old ancestor was not in a hurry, but found a place to sit on the ground, staring at his apprentice with a pair of eyes smiling. Sometimes, the master leads the door to practice in an individual.
He knew that he couldn't rush everything, and naturally he couldn't do it himself.
Standing in place and thinking for a while, Mu Xiwan suddenly smiled, took out a dagger from her arms, she squatted under the tree, observed in the thick trunk for a while, scrubbed her fingers on it, and finally found a place to move, peeled off the bark, and sure enough, she saw the medicinal powder hidden inside.
Scrape the powder raw and put it in an empty bottle that you carry with you.
Mu Xiwan measured the distance again, and found the other seven hidden powders, and after doing all this, she put the box she found first on the ground and sprinkled some of the powder in the box.
After standing in one place and waiting for a while, I saw a small bug running from eight directions, the bug moved quickly, and the destination was very clear, and it went directly into the box.
"Bang" buttoned the box shut, clapped his hands proudly, and looked at his master.
Seeing the smile in the old urchin's eyes, he clapped his hands, and at some point he took out the wine jug from his waist, and looked up for a long time, but only poured out a few drops of clear liquid.
He shook the wine bottle with Mu Xiwan and said, "No wine, haha, I'll go get some." ”
Standing in place and watching the old naughty boy disappear in front of his eyes, Mu Xiwan had a smile in his eyes, and there was some noncommittal helplessness. Is the old urchin so stingy with his praise?
Mu Xiwan squatted in place to study the beautiful box in his hand, the pattern on this box is very peculiar, and there is also a strange fragrance on it, which should be from southern Xinjiang.
If she guessed correctly, it should be the special fragrance on this box that attracts these Gu worms, coupled with the temptation of the poison, that can be caught.
Carefully put the box in the cloth bag she carried, and patted it knowingly, she was fully engaged in today's harvest, and did not notice that a distant sight had been paying attention to her for a long time.
Feng Chengyi was standing far away, and the forest was very dense, so he didn't notice the old urchin who had been standing aside, but kept his eyes on Mu Xiwan.
Watching her stand in place and think about it seriously, squatting on the ground for a while digging something, and finally even measuring the distance with her steps, rummaging around the circle, and finally as she finished work, she could also see that the gas around her began to gradually become thin, and finally there was nothing at all.
This scene is not without magic.
He leaned against a tree and looked at the woman with interest. I have to say that every time he meets, that woman can bring him a different harvest.
It is said that there are eight faces, but in his opinion, this woman is more than a thousand faces. Sometimes she is affectionate, sometimes she is confused, and sometimes you can see her strong side.
For example, at the last banquet, she had an amazing song, and she didn't know what sad things she thought of, so she cried and finished the dance, but she subconsciously covered up her vulnerability and was not seen.
The heart of the look at him moved.
How many times he thought about it by chance, he couldn't help but feel sad and lost with her. This woman seems to have been born with this kind of magic. Every time I meet him, I can leave a deep impression on him.
The corners of his mouth gradually grinned, and he was really a little curious.
