Seeing those "villagers" approaching us, Mai Xiaorou and I didn't dare to stay at the bottom of the mountain for long, and ran directly to the old forest on the side. Chinese Net 1om

This should be the way my father and Liu Shengfu escaped back then.

Mai Xiaorou's physical strength is very good, she has always pulled me to run, and I usually exercise less, and I started to lose my breath after running not far, I can't help but think of the situation of my father and Liu Shengfu back then, my father threw Liu Shengfu here directly in order to escape, will Mai Xiaorou also throw me here, and then I was imprisoned by those villagers in the broken temple to eat snakes, rats, insects and ants?

While I was thinking about this, I tripped over something under my feet and almost fell down while pulling Mai Xiaorou together.

Fortunately, Mai Xiaorou had enough strength to pull me back: "Chen Yu, concentrate on the road, don't worry, I won't leave you." ”

I apologized, "I'm dragging you down." ”

Mai Xiaorou didn't speak, and continued to pull me forward, my steps became heavier and heavier, my legs became weaker and weaker, I couldn't take a step anymore, and my chest was also in pain because of the strenuous exercise, every time I took a breath, I could feel like a needle in my chest.

At the same time, I felt a bout of retching and dizziness in my brain.

I swear that if I make it back alive this time, I will keep running every day.

Seeing that I couldn't run anymore, Mai Xiaorou thought about carrying me, but before she could carry me on her back, a group of villagers had already surrounded us.

When I got closer, I realized that these villagers had long braids and wore ancient shirts, these people were ghosts in the Manchu Dynasty?

After these ghosts surrounded us, they directly waved the tools in their hands and hit us, and before they could get close to my body, Mai Xiaorou pinched a finger, and a powerful aura burst out of her body, directly forcing those ghosts who were going to approach us back.

I was able to slowly feel the qi released from Mai Xiaorou's body, and that feeling was like feeling that foreign qi when I opened the Soul Attracting Altar.

The human body, as well as the world around it, contains an infinite amount of aura, and these auras may be the source of the cultivator's strength.

When the ghosts were forced to retreat, they did not rush at us again, but kept repeating the phrase: "Catch the thief, catch the thief"

Their voices are very hollow to listen to, giving people goosebumps, and after listening to them for a long time, they will make people feel drowsy and want to sleep.

Mai Xiaorou reminded me beside me: "Chen Yu, stabilize your mind, work hard to regulate your breath, silently recite that set of mantras, see how you look and can slowly appreciate this yin and yang qi, you now try to adjust the breath in the group, let those breaths protect your chest, forehead, back, soles of feet, palms." ”

I can only feel those qi, simple pranayama, but if I want to control those qi, I can't do it at all.

Not only that, but I tried it a few times, and the breath that was still running with my pranayama disappeared all at once.

I immediately started to panic.

Mai Xiaoju: "Don't worry, gather your breath again, disperse and disperse, try a few more times." ”

I said "yes" and quickly did it.

As for the surrounding "villagers", they did not dare to approach us rashly, but they had no intention of leaving, and continued to surround us tightly in the middle.

Mai Xiaorou said slowly beside her: "Chen Yu, you carefully perceive the aura of these 'ghosts' around you and see if there is anything special." ”

Mai Xiaorou said this, which means that she has already appeared.

After stabilizing the breath in my body, I began to sense the qi around me, and there was a turbulent current in the aura around me, and that turbid current kept circling around those ghosts, like a rope that closely connected those ghosts.

On the other side of the turbid current, a very thin line was formed and spread all the way to the mountain we had just come down.

I subconsciously said, "Could it be that these ghosts are controlled by that turbulent current?" ”

Mai Xiaorou smiled and said, "That's right, that's right, if I'm not mistaken, what controls these ghosts is the formation that sealed that child on the top of the mountain." ”

I nodded, trying to follow the muddy current to the other side of the mountain, but after exploring the distance of seven or eight meters, the breath in my body dissipated again.

Mai Xiaorou smiled again and said, "Don't be reckless, the range of your current perception breath is stable within ten meters, and you can explore freely within ten meters, and then slowly expand the distance, don't be impatient." ”

I opened my eyes and looked at Mai Xiaoju: "In our current situation, you are still laughing, if we can't find a way to get out, we will be trapped here." ”

Mai Xiaorou said: "These ghosts are all controlled by that formation, and I can't kill them at all with my ability, so until we find an effective way, we'd better not make a random move, otherwise when we run out of physical strength, we will really be helpless." ”

I nodded, and began to gather my breath again.

Mai Xiaorou continued: "This big array is extremely powerful, if I am not mistaken, it is moved by the power of the bloodline of the Liu family, according to what the child on the top of the mountain said, the people of the Liu family want to seal him, and he slaughters the entire Liu family, then the result should be that he won, so why is he still sealed?" ”

I was trying to breathe, and I didn't answer Mai Xiaorou's words, she continued to analyze: "In addition, he also said that he couldn't hurt Liu Shengfu because of the bloodline of the Liu family, and by inferring in turn, we can conclude that he could kill the people of the Liu family when he was alive, but he couldn't do it after he died, and all this is also related to the bloodline array, right." ”

I still didn't speak, she continued: "The person who arranged this bloodline array, in addition to sealing that child, also wanted to protect the safety of the Liu family, does this mean that there were still people from the Liu family who were still alive at the beginning, and they were left to guard this lonely tomb in the mountains. ”

Mai Xiaorou analyzed herself, but I didn't understand her intention to analyze this, and after a while, she looked at the ghosts around her and said, "Could it be that those people who guard the lonely grave are Liu Shengfu's ancestors?" They later left here for some reason? ”

Mai Xiaorou's analysis is wild, my thinking is a little unable to keep up, many of her conjectures are not too logical, and even connecting them together is a bit far-fetched, but this far-fetched explanation makes me feel that is where the truth lies.

I asked Mai Xiaorou how she analyzed this, and she said: "I feel that everyone who handles a case will have their own feelings, and this feeling has a great impact on the handling of cases." ”

I thought about it carefully and felt that Mai Xiaorou's analysis was very correct, after those villagers caught Liu Shengfu back then, they did not kill him, but imprisoned him, which shows that they didn't want Liu Shengfu's life, but just wanted to teach the unfilial descendant a lesson.

We figured out some things, but we also ushered in a bigger mystery, I felt that Mai Xiaorou and I were already in a quagmire, and it would be difficult to get out at this time.

At this time, those ghosts attacked us again, but before Mai Xiaorou could make a move, I suddenly felt a heat in my chest, and a powerful aura burst out of my body, and then that breath swept away with a roar towards the surrounding ghosts.

"Whew!"

The sound was so loud that I was instantly stunned, and Mai Xiaorou also stumbled a few steps, almost not falling.

This is the "snake king pendant" on my chest.

I quickly grabbed the snake pendant in the palm of my hand, it didn't react anymore, and the ghosts around us were long gone.

Mai Xiaorou came back to her senses and pulled me to run.

I asked her what was going on just now, Mai Xiaorou said: "I'm afraid that the snake king fell to protect the master, it sensed your fear, and subconsciously made a move to protect you, to be honest, it was the first time I saw the snake king pendant have such a strong reaction, and when we saw my grandfather, ask him carefully." ”

We continued to run, but the ghosts did not catch up again, and when we came out of the old forest and came to the side of a road, we were completely relieved.

Mai Xiaorou asked me if I had any special feelings before the snake king fell to react, and after thinking about it for a while, I shook my head and said, "No, without warning, I was just pranayama, and nothing else was done." ”

Seeing that she couldn't ask anything, Mai Xiaorou didn't continue to ask.

I asked Mai Xiaorou what we should do next, she said: "Let's go back to the provincial capital first, and then we will discuss countermeasures when we meet my grandfather, this kind of thing involving everyone in the Daomen, I have encountered it for the first time, and I don't know how to deal with it, but one thing I am sure of is that the child on the top of the mountain must not be let out, otherwise there will be big trouble." ”

I nodded in agreement.

However, after this incident, my impression of the mysterious Liu family is not particularly good, although the child ghost embarrassed us, but in the end he let us go because of a sentence.

And those ghosts of the Liu family are haunting us, if it weren't for the snake king, I don't know how long we would be trapped by them.

But then again, every one of their eyes is glazed, and they don't seem to be able to reason with us.

I asked Mai Xiaorou: "What is the origin of the sealed child, just a child, why does a Daomen family make such a teacher!" ”

Mai Xiaorou said: "There are many 'evil seeds' in the spirit world, and it is said that those evil seeds will destroy the world once they are born, maybe that child is one of the 'evil seeds'." ”

"Scourge? Where did they come from? ”

Mai Xiaorou smiled and said: "I don't know about this, even my grandfather can't say it clearly, if you want to know these things, then you have to cultivate the Tao well, and one day you are powerful enough to touch things at that level, then what is the scourge, you will be clear." ”
