Chapter 13: Xie Xi's obsessive-compulsive disorder
Xie Xi and Ling Youyou explored from room one room to room one by one. These rooms are also made of turquoise bamboo, lush and quiet.
Unlike the Tianzi room, it seems that no one has been here for a long time, many of the rooms are covered with cobwebs, and the tables, chairs, benches, and bedding in the room are even more dusty. Then, Xie Xi found pickled wild boar meat and polished rice in room No. 3, apparently there were people living here, and the porridge that Xie Xi had cooked for Ling Youyou before came from these stored dry food. I just don't know what happened later, it's completely deserted.
Soon, Ling Youyou also noticed that there were braziers in every room, which was completely different from the situation where only room in the courtyard of Tianzi had a brazier. She blurted out in surprise, "Why are there braziers here?" ”
Xie Xi shook his head, he had already noticed this, and vaguely felt that this was the system script prompting the player something, but after thinking about it, he still didn't think it through. Ling Youyou saw that he didn't answer, and there seemed to be an incomprehensible look of distress on his face, so he was relieved: "I really can't think of it, forget it." ”
Xie Xi shook his head and smiled bitterly, pointed to his head and said helplessly: "I have severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, I notice something abnormal, if I don't want to understand, I have a severe headache." ”
"Hahaha." Ling Youyou was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help laughing: "Do you have to wash your hands many times, do you have to keep checking the questions, do you always have to remember whether the door at home is closed like this?" ”
Xie Xi's face was bitter, and he said, "It's much more serious than this." In one exam, there was a question, and after the question gave the calculation conditions, he asked the length of the stick that was submerged in the water. ”
"Seems like a normal calculation problem?"
"No, it's not normal at all. I thought about it for ten minutes, whether it should be pronounced as (mo) or as mei, the former indicating the length of submergence in water, and the latter meaning the length of time without entering the water. I thought about it for three months in order to figure out what the questioner really wanted to express, and I almost didn't go to his house in person to ask him what he was trying to express! ”
"Forehead......" Ling Youyou's small mouth opened slightly, and she couldn't help but giggle, Xie Xi looked at her with a bitter face.
Ling Youyou stopped laughing, thought about it, and said softly, "Will the headache be terrible?" ”
"It's amazing."
"Do you want to wait for the game to come out and go to the hospital to have a look?"
"Uh, uh, forget it." Xie Xi hesitated, in fact, he had wanted to check this problem before, and he was worried about whether it was a tumor in the brain, but after hearing about the price of CT, he immediately dispelled this idea. Headaches don't have to be fatal, spending money can really kill you!
Ling Youyou guessed what he was thinking, but he didn't say anything. The two of them bowed their heads and began to ponder. Ling Youyou saw that Xie Xi was thinking hard, and suddenly said casually: "This courtyard is very big, not only these bamboo houses, we can go outside and have a look." ”
Xie Xi exhaled slightly, nodded, and the two of them turned outside the courtyard together. The courtyard outside is large, but it is surrounded by flat and open land, and a few locust poplar trees are planted here and there, and there is no strange thing to see as far as the eye can see.
The two of them discussed going their separate ways, and explored the periphery of the courtyard, and not long after they went their separate ways, Ling Youyou suddenly shouted "ah" and said, "Xie Xi, come and see!" This way! This way! ”
Xie Xi hurriedly ran over, only to see that it was a small hillside behind the courtyard, and Ling Youyou was standing on the hillside, looking down with a pale face. Xie Xi hurriedly followed, stood beside Ling Youyou, looked down the hill, and was stunned. I saw that the hillside was full of dense small tombs, dotted with stars, I don't know how many.
"It's like a graveyard." Ling Youyou said, covering his mouth and exclaiming, "Why did so many people die?" ”
Xie Xi took a deep breath and said, "You wait for me here." "Leap down the hill to the center of the pile of tombs. His eyes swept over the pile of tombs, and his heart was in doubt, when he suddenly noticed that in front of each tomb there was a black thing, as if it were a sacrifice for hanging.
Xie Xi walked over and looked carefully at the black thing, only to find that it was actually a bat that had been frozen into ice. And these bats are the same flame bats that attacked Xie Xi and Ling Youyou last night.
Xie Xituo pondered slightly, and had already guessed in his heart. The people buried in this tomb after death are probably all dead under the flame bats in their lifetimes. Later, the companions of the victims came to avenge them, and after exterminating the flame bats, they buried the dead and placed the corpse of a flame bat in front of each tomb as a memorial service.
But this trick of freezing bats into ice cubes ...... Lingbo Lingxi Belt! Yes, the person who killed these bats must have been equipped with the Lingbo Lingxi Belt at that time, and freezing the bats into pieces was obviously the effect of the Extreme Cold Lingxi Palm attached to the Lingbo Lingxi Belt. However, it is very likely that something happened to this person later, and he left Lingbo Lingxi here, so this treasure finally fell into Xie Xi's hands.
Think about it further, where should this cultivation master be now?
Will it die? It's very likely that Lingbo Lingxi doesn't want such a treasure with him, unless he encounters a danger to his life in a critical situation, right?
But what does this have to do with braziers? Where did these dead people come from? Besides, what is the fish monster in that cave? Why is there a stone tablet engraved with Lingxi in the cave where a large group of monsters are hidden, and why are there so many bloodthirsty flame bats on the mountain, Lingxi Immortal Sect is the largest immortal sect in the world, why are there so many monsters on the main peak? What exactly is the system trying to tell the player? No, there are too many questions, I can't figure it out, my head hurts.
Ling Youyou saw Xie Xi standing in a cemetery silently meditating from a distance, the sun shining on him and pulling out a lonely shadow, somehow, he felt that he was a little distant.
She also leaped down the hill, and she quietly came behind Xie Xi: "What's wrong here?" Did you find anything? ”
Xie Xi told Ling Youyou his guess.
Ling Youyou saw Xie Xi's headache-splitting expression, and couldn't help but say, "Then let's go back." There's nothing to see here anyway. ”
Xie Xi was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.
Finally, after looking back at this tomb wasteland, the two of them went back to the courtyard, cleaned up briefly, and then went to the courtyard to meet Shen Yajun.
The two of them walked on the forest road, when the sun was just right, the breeze was clear, and it was indescribably relaxed. Ling Youyou walked with him, happy and bouncing like a little rabbit that had just come out of the grass, Xie Xi didn't know why she was so happy, but he also looked at her and smiled.
Ling Youyou said casually: "Xie Xi, after you equipped that Lingbo Lingxi Belt, did you become very powerful?" You'll have to thank me, but I tied it up for you. ”
Xie Xi said a little proudly: "Yes, if those bats dare to bully you again, I can beat them to the ground." ”
Ling Youyou chuckled, sighed again, and said, "Alas, I don't know if the person who was equipped with the Lingbo Lingxi Belt before was a master who decided to cultivate the truth, but it's a pity that we couldn't find him." ”
Xie Xi said strangely: "What? ”
Ling Youyou smiled and said, "Look, if his old man is still alive, let's talk to him and chat." Maybe he will be happy as an old man, just like in a novel, and pass on some internal force to us, and let our combat effectiveness explode in minutes. You see, after that, aren't we going to the Immortal Dao Conference to compete for the top four? It's okay for you to have Lingbo Lingxi now, I may not even be able to beat ordinary NPCs, and I don't know how to get into the top four. As he spoke, he couldn't help but have a bitter face.
She just said it casually, but the next moment, Xie Xi looked at her fixedly, and suddenly there seemed to be a lightning bolt cutting through the sky in his mind.
Ling Youyou saw that he was stunned, and spit out his pink little tongue and said, "What's wrong?" What I said stunned you? ”
Xie Xi's heart suddenly lit up like a mirror, and he muttered: "I understand, I understand." I understand everything. Yoyo, let's go back to the graveyard first, there must be something else there! ”
