was asked by Huang Teng, Lu You squeaked and couldn't speak. Huang Teng said again: "Did I let you find the little girl you were looking for?" ”

Lu You nodded and said that he had found it. He walked out of the room, and after a short time, he walked in with a little girl who was not more than ten years old. The girl had a very stubborn temper, she came in and kicked and beaten, her mouth was not clean, she was swearing, her hair was scattered, and her eyes were extremely terrible, like an angry little lioness.

Seeing this girl, my heart suddenly lifted, she was Zhao Xiaowen.

Zhao Xiaowen has a flat square face, very distinctive, she is not very old now, and the difference between her and herself ten years ago is very small, and the face shape can be seen.

Huang Teng squatted in front of Zhao Xiaowen, who was still a little girl, and stretched out his hand to touch her hair. Zhao Xiaowen dodged her head and shouted heartbreakingly: "Who are you, let me go quickly!" ”

Huang Teng said: "Little girl, I heard that you can predict the future, give me a prediction." If the prediction is correct, I will let you go, not only let you go, but also buy you good clothes and delicious food. If the prediction is wrong, I will seal your abilities and memories and make you a retarded and a fool! ”

Zhao Xiaowen was a little frightened by Huang Teng's staring, and her attitude was not as willful as just now, "You, what do you want to predict?" ”

Huang Teng looked into her eyes: "What you can predict is what it is." ”

Zhao Xiaowen was short of breath, closed her eyes, and began to predict Huang Teng's future. The room was quiet, there were only the three of them, Huang Teng and Zhao Xiaowen, and the eldest apprentice Lu You.

Zhao Xiaowen stretched out her hand and put it on Huang Teng's head, Huang Teng was indeed an old fritter, his face was as usual, it could be seen from the unconsciously trembling facial muscles, he was very nervous.

The little girl closed her eyes and muttered, "You will be very rich and rich in the future, with many apprentices, a very big school, and many people will worship you......"

One sentence made Huang Teng's muscles relax, and he laughed: "Am I so powerful?" ”

Lu You muttered, "Master, why don't you ...... I'll go out first. ”

"No," Huang Teng said, "you stay and listen." ”

Huang Teng's intention is too obvious, let outsiders stay, listen to Zhao Xiaowen's prediction, and then spread it, so as to establish Huang Teng's great image in the minds of his apprentices. It is similar to the meaning of the ancient mandate of heaven.

Zhao Xiaowen continued to predict: "You become a very rich and capable person, but just when you are the richest...... You're dead. ”

Huang Teng and Lu You's expressions changed after a "brush", Lu You secretly complained, Huang Teng's face was pale, his tone was still gentle, and he asked me how I died.

Zhao Xiaowen closed her eyes and suddenly pointed with her hand, "You were killed by him." ”

She pointed her finger at Lu You, Lu You's face changed drastically, he was annoyed and angry, and yelled, "Nonsense." As he spoke, he slapped Zhao Xiaowen's back palm.

With this palm, the thin little girl had to be injured, and at the last moment, Huang Teng grabbed Lu You's big slap with a "bang".

"What? What are you angry about, do you really have this plan? Huang Teng asked coldly.

"No, Master, don't listen to this girl, she knows a fart, full of nonsense, provoking the relationship between our master and apprentice." Lu You was anxious.

Huang Teng laughed, "Can I not know, I have been rampant in the rivers and lakes for so long, how could I be fooled by a little girl." ”

He pulled Zhao Xiaowen over, made her look closely into his eyes, and then reached out and grabbed the girl's head, and said softly: "I want to destroy all your abilities, your memory, now you are so young to bewitch the public, and it is even more difficult to grow up, I can't let you harm others again." ”

His ten fingers pinched the little girl's skull hard, and Zhao Xiaowen screamed.

The screams spread rapidly through the room like burning air, destroying almost everything in their reach.

My vision was blurry.

Furniture can be seen falling apart, and countless fragments of debris are splashed in the air like slow motion, like a midnight firework.

Space and time froze, and Xie Ling stood in the middle of the room with his hands behind his back, as if this was a huge stage, and all the dynamic backgrounds were setting off his majesty.

The scene in front of me shocked me, almost kneeling on the ground, and the bell did not move, like a thunderbolt, he stared at the three people who were getting more and more blurred, his eyes were full of vicissitudes and sorrow.

I don't know how long it will take, maybe a few seconds, or a long time, and by the time the line of sight is clear, the room is empty, all the furniture is gone, and the floor is in tatters and messes.

Xie Ling looked up at the mirror, and I followed his gaze to look at it.

The mirror was thick with dust and stains, just like when we first arrived.

Xie Ling stared in the mirror, and I slowly walked over to the back of him, also looking in the mirror.

It didn't matter, my hairs stood on end. The mirror reflects the image of the bell, and behind him, I was actually illuminated!

My image is visible in the mirror, standing behind Xie Ling, and on my wrist lies a big cat, which is the cat spirit black black.

I couldn't shake it, I didn't expect the mirror to be so evil. Is it a real mirror, or is it just a metaphor in Zhao Xiaowen's subconscious?

Xie Ling didn't look back, and suddenly said, "Lin Cong, it's nice to meet you." ”

Don't tell lies in front of real people, I've already shown up, I'm embarrassed to pretend I don't know. After a moment's hesitation, he muttered, "Hello, Xie Ling." ”

"You've been with me for a long time." He said.

"It's okay, I've followed you since you came in." I didn't dare look him in the eye.

We haven't seen it face to face so far, it's all facing the mirror, through mirror conversations.

Even so, I still don't dare to look at Xie Ling in the mirror, his aura is completely different from the image of being stumped by the savage Zhao Xiaowen in reality.

Now he has the bearing of a centenarian. The sense of vicissitudes is very thick, and Huang Teng's old fritter is completely two ways, I can't imagine how Xie Ling was cultivated, his age is actually not very old, at most in his early thirties.

"How do you feel in your dreams?" Xie Ling asked.

"There are a lot of things that I seem to understand, but I don't understand." I say.

"yes." Xie Ling said: "This is not reality after all, everything has been changed and refracted by Zhao Xiaowen's subconscious. However, there is another reality here, and what you hear and see is the truth. ”

"Is that true or false?" I once asked Li Damin this question.

Xie Ling said: "When the fake is true, the truth is also false, and there is nowhere to do nothing." ”

I know that this is a poem in "Dream of Red Mansions", but I don't quite understand what it means, and now it is used here by Jieling, which is very apt and expressive, and it is another ethereal and plausible feeling.

"Is this Zhao Xiaowen's realm?" I asked.

It was only then that Xie Ling looked back at me, and I had a real image in the mirror, and outside the mirror was a mass of consciousness, nothing. But Xie Ling seemed to be able to see me, his eyes were focused, as if he could really see, and he was staring.

"You still know that there is." Xie Ling smiled: "There is indeed a situation here. Its realm is one level higher than the dream realm, so this is a kind of mystical realm. ”

"So, Zhao Xiaowen is not the master of this world?" I asked.

Xie Ling shook his head: "People may be able to control dreams, but no one can control the realm of being. Although there is a realm that reflects a lot of Zhao Xiaowen's subconscious reflections, she is still not the god here, and it is impossible to do whatever she wants, she is just more familiar with the environment here than others, and she is better at using it. ”

"So what's going on now...... Before I could finish my sentence, a strange scene suddenly appeared in the mirror, and I was so scared that I almost didn't sit on the ground.

What I saw made me feel a real creep.

Xie Ling heard that my voice was different, and he also looked back. In the mirror, our image disappears, but it becomes glass-like and you can see behind the mirror.

The scene is still this abandoned room, and there are several children in the room, one of which is Xie Ling's nephew, the little boy named Lei Lei.

When the children entered the room, they were scared and excited, and they shrank their heads and looked around, and felt that there was no danger, and a gust of wind rushed over. They searched the room, and two children were peeing in the corner. Later they discovered the ancient mirror.

The mirror hung too high, and they jumped to see themselves in the mirror, but they couldn't see it. Some children proposed, one on their shoulders, and raised it to see.

There was a little fat man who carried Lei Lei. The two came to the mirror, Lei Lei was very bold and put his head in the mirror to look.

I could see his face growing in the mirror very clearly, even his nostrils. Lei Lei tapped the mirror with his hand while looking at it with a peep.

He was watching, and suddenly it was as if he had discovered something, and his eyes stared at the mirror in a daze.

He said, "He saw us." ”

Lei Lei screamed, jumped off the shoulder of the little fat man, and even fell with the fat man. Lei Lei ran out like a ghost like a ghost, and the other children were also infected by this terrifying atmosphere, so they were so frightened that they went out together.

Xie Ling said thoughtfully, "It seems that we are back to the origin of the labyrinth. ”
