Chapter Seventy-Two: Ghost Grass Soup, Yellow Spring Water

Shen Yuan and the others stared at Ava, and saw Ava gently put down the copper bowl, sat down next to the bonfire with a slight stagger, closed his eyes, and showed a strange smile on the corner of his mouth. It's like you've fallen asleep!

Shen Yuan and the others looked at each other, a little at a loss.

The man suddenly raised his head and looked at Shen Yuan and the others, and Liu Wen suddenly found out! That man's eyes turned out to be an eerie gray!

The gray color is like a film covering the man's eyeballs, making the whites of his eyes and the kernel of his eyes no longer so black and white! But the sight and look of his eyes showed that this man was definitely not blind!

The man grinned and sneered, "No matter what your origins are, you want to see the Heavenly Ghost Cave!" You have to drink soup、、、、、、 or you'll die in this desert! ”

Knife boy stood up, fully guarded.

Shen Yuan looked at the silent oxtail old dao, and saw that the old dao patted the Taoist robe full of dust, swaggered to the side of the pot, picked up a copper bowl, took the soup, and drank it all in one gulp! Then he smacked his lips and said a little unsatisfied: "Not bad! It is worthy of the ghost grass soup that dares to claim to be comparable to Meng Po soup, but it is lighter. ”

The black-robed man grinned, bared his black and yellow teeth, and let out a strange laugh like a night owl: "Hehehehehehe、、、 old man knows the goods!" But if this soup is thick, it will be up to you to take it and it will become a few patches on my tent! Hahaha、、、"

When Shen Yuan and Liu Wen heard this, the hairs on their backs suddenly stood up! Could it be that the tent behind the man was made of human skin?

The knife boy's hand had already clenched the large-caliber pistol behind him, Liu Wen was motionless, and Shen Yuan couldn't help but touch the Kun Gong knife on his waist! I don't know what's going on, whenever there is a sense of danger, this knife can bring Shen Yuan a sense of stability and calm!

Lao Dao looked back at Shen Yuan and the others, coughed and said, "Mr. Shen, don't be nervous!" Nothing to do! Drink the soup and rest all night and wake up! Rest assured! ”

Daozi looked at Shen Yuan nervously, and Shen Yuan looked at the old way of the oxtail, and shook his head. Motioned to the knife boy to calm down, then stood up and walked towards the iron pot.

Daozi took a few steps in front of Shen Yuan, picked up a broken copper bowl and stretched it out to the black-robed man, the black-robed man snorted, scooped a spoonful of soup in his bowl, Daozi frowned, and took a sip! After tasting it carefully, I found that the turbid soup didn't seem to have any taste, and then I felt it, and there seemed to be countless flavors slowly flowing out of my mouth, sweet and sour, bitter and salty、、、、、、 it was an indescribable feeling! It's like tasting a taste that exists in memory but can never be found in reality!

The knife boy was stunned! There was a trace of trance in his expression, and his neck turned stiffly to look at the black-robed man of Brother Nan, as if he wanted to have another bowl to taste.

The black-robed man sneered and said, "If you don't want to die, just sit on the side, you should only be able to drink this soup in your life!" ”

Shen Yuan hurriedly walked over to hold Dao Zai, and looked nervously at Dao Zai's eyes, Dao Zai saw that Shen Yuan seemed to be a little sober! Shaking his head, he said to Shen Yuan: "Door master、、、 it's like smoking marijuana for the first time!" Hehe、、、 should be 、、、 should be fine! I 、、、I want 、、、 take a break、、、"

Shen Yuan sat down on a dirty blanket on the side of the knife boy and said softly, "It's okay! You have a good rest. It would be nice to get some sleep、、、"

Knife boy seemed to want to say something, but then he lowered his head groggily, and his breathing became long and heavy. It's like falling asleep all at once!

Looking up again, Shen Yuan found that it was Liu Wen who was drinking soup, and Liu Wen was using a folding water cup. The black-robed man didn't care about this, and still scooped a spoonful of soup for her.

Liu Wen drank it in one gulp, then turned around and walked to the blanket he had placed not far from the fire and sat down cross-legged, nodded to Shen Yuan to signal that he was okay, and then closed his eyes and stopped talking!

Oxtail Lao Dao sat on a stone next to the broken tent and was also meditating with his eyes closed, Shen Yuan looked at the strange silent people around him, pursed the corners of his lips, and walked to the iron pot. Picked up a copper bowl, looked at it and put it back, turned around and picked up the folding cup next to Liu Wen, returned to the black-robed man, and handed the cup over.

The black-robed man snorted, his gray eyes looked at Shen Yuan's face, and the spoon stirred carefully in the pot. A steaming spoonful of gray-yellow soup was scooped into the cup, and Shen Yuan sniffed it gently.

The heat looks steaming upward, but the smell in the nose is a strange coolness! That feeling suddenly reminded Shen Yuan of the smell of old fireworks mixed with food that he smelled next to the stove in the countryside of Northeast China when he was a child! There is also the gentle musty smell of the clothes and wooden boards in the old cabinet of my grandfather's house, the smell of young bodies in the school, and the sour smell of sweat on the soldiers in the army! The smell of the incense and butter lamps in the Minzhu forest, and the faint earthy smell of the grit in the desert around me、、、、、、

"Hey! Do you even drink it? ”

The hoarse voice of the black-robed man sounded! woke up Shen Yuan, who was intoxicated by the inexplicable taste of the soup.

Shen Yuan looked at the turbid soup in the cup in shock, thought about it、、、 drank it all!

Heaven and earth seemed to be connected, and Shen Yuan felt that all the cells in his body seemed to be wriggling lazily, whispering meaningless dreams like a dream. Memories seem to be non-existent, and thoughts seem to be there

Experience the simplest perception and activity of cells, and discover the most primitive pleasure from it!

It's as if any of the senseless reflexes of any set of nerves are a novel experience and pleasure!

Shen Yuan, who was immersed in it, couldn't extricate himself、、、、、、

"Mr. Shen、、、 Mr. Shen、、、 Shen 、、、 、、、 Shengsheng、、、" as if the echoing voice was calling Shen Yuan from the end of the world, Shen Yuan tried hard to open his eyes,

But it always fails. The whole body seems to be nostalgic for this wonderful experience and refuses to return to reality.

Finally! Shen Yuan opened his eyes, and suddenly felt that his body had become cold, and a bone-chilling chill had invaded.

Shen Yuan noticed that he was still sitting in front of a large rock, with a moisture-proof mat underneath him. The vigilance in his heart suddenly made Shen Yuan break out in a cold sweat! What about your own manpower?

Shen Yuan was just about to get up, when he felt a hand firmly pressed on his shoulder, Shen Yuan turned his head to look and found that it was the old oxtail Tao!

Lao Dao pressed his hand and said softly: "Mr. Shen has just woken up, let's slow down!" If there is a method of breathing, breathing, and meditation, just take your time! Rest assured, we're safe now. ”

Shen Yuan shook his head, stabilized his emotions, and still looked around. I saw that the ghostly 'guide' was nowhere to be found. Liu Wen and Daozi both fell asleep on the blankets, wrapped in the sleeping bags carried by several people. Ava sat cross-legged in front of the tent, breathing long and deep, and obviously still immersed in deep dreams!

Shen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly relaxed his body, and practiced the breathing method that Min Zhulin had passed on to him.

Oxtail Lao Dao observed Shen Yuan with interest, and then sat quietly opposite Shen Yuan.

After a few minutes, Shen Yuan felt that he had regained his ability to think and act, and quickly opened his eyes and looked at the old Ushio Dao who was sitting in front of him with an inquiring look.

Old Dao looked at Shen Yuan with a smile and said, "Mr. Shen must have a lot to say to Lao Dao, but please let Mr. Shen listen to Lao Dao and explain to you what we are facing now!" ”

Shen Yuan nodded.

Old Oxtail pointed to the iron pot that had been extinguished outside the broken tent door, and said softly: "The soup in the pot is the ghost grass soup boiled by the 'guide' of the Heavenly Ghost Cave, also called Yellow Spring Water!" If you drink it, you will change the breath on your body, and if you drink less, you can only change it for a short time. No one knows exactly when it is, maybe only the 'guide' knows the exact usage! It's been like this since ancient times, if you want to see the Heavenly Ghost Cave, as long as you're still a mortal, you have to drink ghost grass soup. Turn your breath into a half-human, half-ghost state, otherwise, if you get closer to the Heavenly Ghost Cave, you will die in this desert. ”

Shen Yuan asked, "How did the Ushio seniors know this?" ”

Lao Dao shook his head: "Lao Dao Shimen has lived in the mountains behind Qingcheng Mountain for generations, and what he does is a happy thing to walk the rivers and lakes. There are many records of the various secrets of the world in the lineage, and it is not surprising to know this. This time、、、 we were forced to go to Liangshan this time! ”

Shen Yuan thought about it, reached out and touched his body a few times, and took out a red brocade bag. Gently stuffed into the hand of the old man of the oxo.

The old man of the oxtail was stunned, and the familiar feeling in the bag made the old man understand that this was actually the green ox seal that he had been thinking about for a long time!

Shen Yuan smiled lightly and said, "I had a dream and didn't remember anything, but I figured out a truth. Nothing can be forced, this seal my grandfather actually left a message a long time ago, so that I can return it to Qingcheng Mountain Daomen at the right time. I used this to coerce the Dao Chief, on behalf of Qingcheng Mountain, to express my support for us and the Five Immortals Sect Min Zhulin, it was indeed too much, and now the Fa Yin is handed back to the Dao Chief! I don't want anything, and I ask for your forgiveness! ”

After speaking, Shen Yuan smiled and looked at the eyes of the old man of Oxo, his face was full of honest and natural looks.

The old man rolled his eyes, and suddenly sneered: "You kid pretending to be like you!" Lao Dao thinks that if you weren't in a desperate situation, you think that Lao Dao has something to use now, and you will definitely not return the Fa Seal to Lao Dao so happily! ”

Shen Yuan was a little embarrassed, but he still said naturally: "Isn't the Dao Chief in a desperate situation?" I will use this magic seal to cover an evil spell if I play with my life, or put it in the hands of the Taoist to exert the greatest power! It is also reasonable to maximize the use of resources in times of crisis. ”

Lao Dao shook his head and said, "Forget it! I don't care about it, but you have to keep your promise! The seal of law was voluntarily returned to the Taoist master, and the old Taoist played this time to keep you safe, and we don't owe each other after that! ”

Shen Yuan nodded like a chicken pecking rice, but he was thinking in his heart--- "Since you now choose to count on this veteran who has extraordinary experience and knowledge, what can you do if you return the Dharma Seal to him?" It's a big deal, after escaping, Lao Tzu is all over the world and hypes the old way of the oxtail in Qingcheng Mountain, because the Qingniu seal and the Five Immortals Sect of the Jade Master have joined forces to break the heavenly ghost cave or something! When the time comes, this old oxtail will be bitter and unspeakable、、、、、、"

Lao Dao proudly took the law seal into his arms, looked at the smiling Shen Yuan, and was also planning to --- in his heart, "When you go out, the Taoist will spread it everywhere--- Qingcheng Mountain Oxtail Zhenren fought with the contemporary jade connoisseur for three hundred rounds in order to regain the Fa seal, and after the completion of the battle, he parted ways with the jade connoisseur, and since then he has cut his robe and never paid attention to the ups and downs on the rivers and lakes、、、、、、"

The two foxes, one old and one young, were each wishful thinking, but the old man of the oxtail still began to introduce the strange legend of this oasis.

Lao Dao coughed and said to Shen Yuan: "There were many people in this desert who wanted to occupy it, intending to control the Heavenly Ghost Cave in their own hands. But countless years have passed, and no one has succeeded. Those who have cultivated deeply may be able to save their lives, and some of them can't find where the Heavenly Ghost Cave is! ”

Shen Yuan asked, "Then is this guide from the Great Black Temple?" If he knew that the Great Black Temple was in the hands of me and the Five Immortals Sect, would he 、、、? ”

Lao Dao shook his head: "No, the guide is the guide of the Heavenly Ghost Cave, not the guide of the Great Black Temple." The second elder didn't dare to offend this guy too much. As for the Great Black Temple、、、 in fact, the Great Black Temple has obtained a little bit of the secret in the Heavenly Ghost Cave, and has used it to dominate the grassland for many years. ”

Shen Yuan said: "Are those dozens of puppets?" ”

Lao Dao shook his head: "I don't know!" I'm afraid that only the second elder knows about this matter in the world now! If the Dao Master in the sanatorium knew that she was the second elder of the Xuanyi Sect sitting in the Great Black Temple, he wouldn't dare to jump out if he killed the Dao Master, and it would be fine to pretend to be dead in the end、、、、、、"

Shen Yuan looked at Lao Dao and said softly, "Really? The Taoist may be fine, but will Liu Lang's little Taoist priest also be fine? ”

Lao Dao almost jumped up! Hurriedly asked, "You! 、、、 what do you know? ”

Shen Yuan saw that Lao Dao suddenly became nervous, so he deliberately pretended to be confident and said, "What is the secret of Liu Lang's body. Don't you know? Or does the Taoist think everyone doesn't know? How important is the person that the second elder cares about so much, do you still need me to say? ”

Lao Dao suddenly sat on the ground dejected like a deflated ball. muttered: "It seems that no one can hide it!" Sooner or later, you will come when you should come, and you can't hide from it. ”

Shen Yuan pretended to be profound and stopped talking.

Lao Dao complained a few words, turned his head to look at Shen Yuan and said, "How did you see that Liu Lang was born with a soulless body?" Could it be that there is still experience in this area in the inheritance left by your jade connoisseurs? ”

Shen Yuan was stunned when he heard this!

At this moment, the old man Niuwei saw something, and immediately said angrily: "You kid dares to deceive the Taoist!" It seems that you just see that Liu Lang is the person that the second elder cares about, but you don't know what secrets Liu Lang has! ”

Shen Yuan stiffened up and said, "It's all about the same!" ”

The old Taoist glared at Shen Yuan angrily and said: "Liu Lang's kid was born with an incomplete soul, also called asoullessness, and he was born without crying, making trouble, or laughing, and he was a stupid baby. Such dolls generally can't be raised, and it's stupid to survive! ”

Shen Yuan asked in surprise: "Then although Liu Lang is a little naΓ―ve, he doesn't look like an imbecile?" ”

Lao Dao rolled his eyes: "Then don't look at who wants to be his master?" ”

Shen Yuan was silent and looked disbelieving.

Lao Dao said angrily: "This baby was born with soullessness and was born with a premature death, but he is a spirit body with a full yin life. ”

Shen Yuan knew that it was extremely rare for people with all yin or yang to be born, and it stands to reason that there were many people born at the same time. It can really be calculated by using the five elements of yin and yang, and there are many things to pay attention to about the place, time, direction, and even the yin and yang pattern of the place of birth, the gender and number of people who deliver the baby, and so on.

Lao Dao said with a little eyebrows: "But he met Dao Ye and me!" When Dao Ye's master went to the immortals, he calculated a hexagram for Dao Ye and said that I can only have one apprentice in my life, and I must be an innate spirit body with a full yin personality! Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! How many innate spirits have been there since ancient times? ”

Shen Yuan was dumbfounded--- the innate spirit body is basically a legendary thing! That is the product of the creation of heaven and earth! Basically, they don't appear in the world, and this kind of person is born with a vision, extremely intelligent or wise. No matter what inheritance method is cultivated, it is countless times faster than ordinary people, and it belongs to the qualification of the Great Dao of Enlightenment with ease, and it does not distinguish between good and evil, and it is the disciple of the world's mountain gate inheritance dream!

Lao Dao smiled and said in a low voice: "Actually, Lao Dao knows that Master actually doesn't want his lineage to be passed on anymore, and if it is passed on to me, he will completely let go of it!" Because the Tao inherited by the Master is rejected by most cultivators in the world! Just like your ancestors, the lineage of the Taoist inheritance is also asking all beings to be at ease and not to be manipulated by cultivators! ”

Shen Yuan was silent.

Lao Dao continued: "You have been in the rivers and lakes for a few days, how do you feel?" Do you feel like there's an invisible noose that keeps trapping you? Everywhere you go, you seem to have eyes staring at you in the dark? ”

Shen Yuan nodded.

Lao Dao laughed miserably: "Which of the people from the Old Thirteen Sect hasn't come over like this all these years?" ”

Shen Yuan turned his head to look at the door of the tent, only Ava was sitting there in a daze, and the guide was still nowhere to be seen. The wind blew through the broken iron pot without a lid, and the ghost grass soup in it, that is, the yellow spring water, had been drunk by everyone, and the iron pot shook slightly, as if laughing at the stupid living people around them who were jumping around but had to go into the underworld!

"Where's that guide?" Shen Yuan retracted his thoughts and asked Oxtail Laodao.

Lao Dao shook his head: "I don't know! ”

Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows, looked at the old oxtail playfully, and said, "Everyone is immersed in the medicinal effect of the ghost grass soup and sleeps, I don't believe that you woke me up just to talk about your stupid apprentice!" What do you say, what do you ink? ”

Oxtail Lao Dao was squeezed by Shen Yuan's words, snorted, tilted his head and snorted: "Dao Ye accepted this fool by mistake, and he doesn't want to go to the troubled waters of the rivers and lakes anymore." But the undercurrent of these two years has been turbulent, and my brother in charge is also a shrewd ghost-like figure, and it seems that he has calculated something, and he wants to kick our master and apprentice down the mountain gate in every possible way. ”

Shen Yuan nodded: "It's not surprising, the old thirteen sects have been sticking to the original belief, I'm afraid that only the Minzhulin Five Immortals Sect is left!" ”

Lao Dao pouted: "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit、、、 you can trust the two of them so much?" At the beginning, the Thirteen Gates could still trust your ancestors! What happened in the end? ”

Shen Yuan rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Talk about business!" ”
