Chapter 261: The Mountain of Guilt
Where there are inhabitants, there is strife, and where there is strife, there is resentment.
Xixiang Village is an ordinary village, and it is normal to have resentment here. But this resentment seems to be a little too strong.
Hui Ling and I walked around the village, almost mentally affected by resentment.
I said to Hui Ling, "Is there something great in this place that can't be done?" ”
Hui Ling shook her head: "It shouldn't be." Why didn't I feel it? ”
I said, "Your nose is so bad, you almost got you to the bottom last time." ”
Hui Ling: "......"
The two of us circled around the village and quickly figured out what was going on.
There are indeed no big evil things here, and these grievances are all created by the villagers themselves.
This village, I don't know how to do it, the people are strong. A lot of people drink alcohol and get drunk and go crazy.
Comparison has become a trend, coveting all kinds of desires.
As for how I know...... I was standing at the crossroads and could hear three or four families arguing.
And the content of the quarrel is nothing more than that the woman feels that the man has no money. Or a man thinks that a woman is ugly, but her temper is uglier than her appearance.
Hui Ling said to me: "Sometimes I really don't understand you people in the world, I have this little thing for a few seconds, as for quarrels?" ”
I said, "That's what life really looks like." Bland, firewood, rice, oil, salt. Most people are struggling to survive, so don't fight for any love or romance. ”
"A castle in the air, a castle made of sand, and it will be dispersed when you blow it."
Hui Ling laughed.
Then we looked for the Land Temple in the village.
Finally, this small temple was found at the entrance of the village.
I first worked together with Hui Ling and tied Master Yang to a tree next to the small temple.
Then the two of us began to burn the paper, and while burning the paper, we recited the words and showed the intention.
The two of us, who claimed to be practitioners who traveled all over the world, saw that where there was an injustice, we would draw our swords and go up to help. Therefore, he has accumulated some fame in the world.
Today we caught another person who committed a great crime, specially came to hand it over to the land lord, and then took him to the mountain of sin to suffer.
I thought I was right, so I threw the paper money in.
Soon, all the paper money we brought was burned.
I said to Hui Ling, "Why hasn't it arrived yet?" ”
Hui Ling sighed: "Don't be impatient. ”
Afterwards, we sat on the side of the road, quietly waiting for the person who captured Master Yang to come over quickly.
Soon, I heard a sound of footsteps.
I turned my head and saw that there were two paper figures, one in front of the other and one behind the other.
It is a sedan chair, a sedan chair used by the ancients to get married.
Regardless of the fact that the sedan chair is white, there should be a big red word on it.
It's pretty scary.
The moment the sedan chair appeared, the fire in the brazier suddenly disappeared.
Those fire spirits were blown by the yin wind, and they all flew up, and then gathered in front of the palanquin.
The two paper figures burst into flames, then turned into a cloud of flying ashes.
I saw one of the pieces of fly ash set something on fire, and then a lantern appeared next to the sedan chair.
I didn't see anyone carrying the lantern, I just saw that the lantern kept swaying next to the sedan chair, as if it was showing us the way.
Hui Ling whispered, "Let's go." ”
She stuffed the souls of Master Yang and the second master of the Mu family into the sedan chair, and then walked with me one after the other, carrying the sedan chair, following the lantern, and staggering forward.
It's a strange feeling, and I don't know why, but there's an inexplicable hair in my heart.
At first, I could feel that we were still in Xixiang Village, and under our feet was a newly built road.
But it didn't take long for me to realize that something was wrong. I don't know when the highway changed, and it became a bluestone pavement.
We walked slowly along the bluestone pavement.
Not long after I walked, I felt a gust of wind around me, blowing chills to the bone.
And in the gloomy wind, it was as if something was talking.
Soon, it seemed as if a voice was whispering in my ear.
It was very close to me, and it was soft, but I couldn't understand anything.
I could just feel that his voice was anxious and mysterious.
I looked behind me and saw only paper sedan chairs. The big inscription was facing me, and it made me feel a little scared.
With a sedan chair in the way, I can't talk to Hui Ling.
Forget it, if you can't say it, let's talk about it, let's get through this pass first.
I thought to myself.
I don't know how long it took, but the lantern in the sky shook a little and fell to the ground.
The candle inside the lantern tops down, quickly igniting the lantern paper outside.
Then, the lantern turned into a fire cage.
Hui Ling and I looked at the world around us by the light of the fire, and I realized that we were already at the foot of a mountain.
The mountain was so dark that no one could be seen on it.
But I could feel that in the dark, in the branches, there were many pairs of eyes quietly staring at me.
I said to Hui Ling, "Let's put the sedan chair down." ”
Hui Ling hummed and took out Master Yang and the second master of the Mu family in the sedan chair.
Hui Ling said, "Do you want to kill Master Yang with one sword?" ”
I was slightly stunned, and looked at Hui Ling with a little curiosity: "Why?" ”
Hui Ling said to me, "Why did we bring Master Yang here? It's just that he's the one who sinners the most, and we need him to lead the way. ”
"Now that the lead is over, he's useless, can we ......?"
Before I could speak, Master Yang couldn't help but say, "Isn't it good to unload the mill and kill the donkey?" And you're killing too fast, aren't you? ”
Hui Ling laughed: "Fast?" Actually, this is not the main reason, I want to kill you, there is another reason. ”
Master Yang looked helpless.
Hui Ling said: "Escorting sinners to the mountain of sin is only the first step, and we have now simply reached the mountain of sin. ”
"But the Mountain of Sin is too dangerous, and it is full of resentment and anger. If you're not careful, you'll get lost here. And the best way is to get the approval of Sin Mountain. If Sin Mountain treats us as one of its own, we are safe. ”
I asked curiously, "What should I do about it?" ”
Hui Ling smiled slightly and pointed to Master Yang next to him: "So, I was going to propose to kill him just now." It is best for such a heinous person to be executed in the mountain of sin. ”
Master Yang suddenly said pitifully: "Don't kill me, don't kill me." I have a way to get you around the mountain of sin without being targeted. Believe me, when I am alive, I am more useful than when I am dead. ”
I said to Master Yang, "Then do you have a way to get Sin Mountain to accept us?" ”
Master Yang turned his head again and again: "Yes, yes." ”
However, looking at his demeanor, I always felt that he was perfunctory to me.
I said to Master Yang, "What the hell do you have to do? ”
Master Yang said: "First of all, you must walk sideways on the mountain of sin, it is not okay to be extremely vicious, you are not allowed to be innocent and kind." Only in this way can we avoid those resentments around us. ”
