Chapter 160: The Willow Forest (Part II)
When the water in the center of the compass touched the ground, white smoke first emitted.
Immediately afterward, the long-extinguished light emanated from the red talisman again, and the golden light pointed directly at the forest behind them (shēn).
Lin Zi's side suddenly brightened up a lot, and Li You was surprised, and hurriedly looked there.
The willow forest, which was still green just now, suddenly turned into a dead wood, and under the golden light (shè), it stretched out into the air with teeth and claws.
He didn't think about it, and blurted out directly: "Uncle Shi!" Look over there! ”
Seeing the response, Uncle Shi was also surprised and couldn't close his mouth, and said in surprise: "This is a vision, quickly pack up your things, let's go and find out." ”
Hearing that Uncle Shi had finally opened his mind, Li You did not slack off, simply picked it up, and followed Uncle Shi towards the woods quickly.
They had not gone far before the golden light behind (shēn) dimmed, and then returned to its original state.
Li You looked at the willow forest in the distance and changed back to its original appearance, and looked at Uncle Shi.
Seeing his little bit, he also put his mind at ease, and his heart must not make a mistake this time.
By the faint light of the moon, the two of them were anxious with every step, as if there was a trap waiting for them in front of them.
As the saying goes, the heart sails the boat of ten thousand years, and the wind and waves are all (tǐng), if you drown in this horseshoe pit, won't you be laughed at?
After Li Youyou set off, he began to ponder. (shēn) The uncle who was walking next to him behaved very relaxedly, and when he was a few meters away, he stood still and said to Li You:
"Senior nephew, just now you saw the pointer pointing here, and the golden light after that also seems to be pointing out a way for us."
Looking at Uncle Shi's watch (qíng), Li You didn't know what he was thinking, and hurriedly asked him if there was anything wrong.
Uncle Shi hurriedly shook his head and said: "In the Taoist cognition, everything is divided into (yīn) yang, black and white, (yīn) yang, Qiankun, and so on, but there are always people who think that either black is white, but in fact it is not. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Hmph", Uncle Shi looked at the forest who couldn't see his fingers, and disdainfully: "Black and white have always existed at the same time, otherwise how can you tell right from wrong?" ”
After listening to it, Li You finally figured out what the master wanted to express.
What he thinks is that in this world, good things and bad things are inextricably linked. As for how we can build on our strengths and avoid our weaknesses and walk on the right path, it is the most important thing.
Thinking of Uncle Shi's words, Li You squinted his eyes again, hoping to see through the road inside from the outside.
But the harder he tried, the less he saw, and finally sighed helplessly:
"Uncle Shi, I don't know if there will be dangers on this road, but intuitively, if you want to escape from here, there is no other better choice."
Uncle Shi nodded and said, "Very good, you don't just see things with your eyes, let's go." ”
At this point, the two of them continued to move forward slowly. After clearing the weeds outside the forest, Uncle Shi took the lead and walked in.
After Uncle Shi's (shēn) form disappeared into the forest, Li You also took a step, and before he could go in, an unfamiliar voice suddenly came from behind (shēn).
"Don't go near that wood!"
The degree of this old voice was not inferior to the master's voice, which made Li You mistakenly think that the master was coming.
Looking back, among the half-man-tall weeds just now, an old face slowly poked out of it, so frightened that he almost fell, and hurriedly grabbed the tree beside him.
"Senior nephew, what's wrong?" Uncle Shi heard the sound and returned to Li You (shēn), and before Li You could answer, he saw his face in the weeds and hurriedly slapped Li You with his elbow.
Li You turned around and saw that his uncle was giving him a look, and after understanding, he pulled off the peachwood sword pinned to his back, and pointed the blade of the sword directly at the grass and said:
"Who's ahead, sneaky, hurry up (shēn)!"
After the man heard Li You's words, he didn't squeak, just tinkered with something below, and the weeds were also driven to sway left and right.
Li You tiptoed to see what the man was going to do, but before he could see clearly, he only felt a gust of wind after (shēn), and before he could turn around, he was knocked out by a powerful force.
With the power of this collision, if you put it on ordinary people (shēn), I am afraid that it has already broken bones. But Li You was unscathed, just a mouthful of soil.
Just as he wanted to get up (shēn) to see how his uncle was doing, suddenly, a big hand pressed his head, and then he heard the old voice in his ear again:
"Stay here and don't move!"
As soon as the words fell, Li You suddenly felt a gust of wind howling (shēn), and looked up to look for the person in the grass, but he had long since disappeared.
After a little slowdown, Li You held his waist and crawled forward for a while.
When the pain gradually subsided, he stood up on the ground. Looking back at Uncle Shi's position, there was not even half a figure.
"Uncle Shi! Teacher! ”
After shouting three times and shouting twice, I didn't see Uncle Shi's answer, and I didn't know what to do for a while.
"Strange, who is the person hiding here just now? Why is he hiding here, his hands alone are not ordinary people. ”
Li You spat a few mouthfuls of green grass juice to the ground, recalling the sudden scene just now.
If Uncle Shi had beaten me after me (shēn), it would have been unlikely, where did he get so much strength when he was as thin as a stick?
The only possibility is that there are really youkai in the woods. And at least it has to be a bear spirit level, otherwise it won't be possible to knock me out at once.
Also, are the people in the grass friend or foe?
Li You, who has been cheated several times, now doesn't know what is good and what is bad.
His judgment has been completely rendered worthless by the capricious people. But in view of the analysis of the current situation, I have to hope that the "heroes in the grass" will help me.
Thinking about it, he went back to the edge of the woods.
The probe went in and looked left and right, but he didn't feel the slightest disturbance. Heart, if there is really a demon, I'm afraid that a big war has started now.
It is absolutely impossible to be so quiet and peaceful.
He thought that maybe it was the man and Uncle Shi who had driven the monster or something else away, so he had the courage to get inside.
As soon as he entered, Li You felt that the environment here was extremely depressing.
In the sheltered (rì) forest, there was no light at all, and the space was narrow, so Li You had to bend his waist to avoid the branched branches hidden in the shadows.
When he walked more than ten steps in the dark, Li You smelled a strange aroma for some reason.
So he stood still vigilantly, seriously recalled in his mind what this aroma was coming from, and unconsciously smelled the smell, and hummed:
"A big road, leading to my house, my family lives in ...... I remembered the smell of rape flowers! ”
