Chapter 3 O 5 The Rising Sun
Lin Chen searched for the cry and finally found the fat man.
The fat man was squatting on the ground alone and criing like a collapse, and when he saw Lin Chen, he was even more emotional, pulling Lin Chen's sleeve and shouting, "Where did you kid die!" For so long, you asked me to deal with the terrible female ghost in black alone, and I was scared to pee my pants! I was almost heartbroken by the woman in black like Yang Yuanshan, you know no! ”
Lin Chen's face was full of grievances, "You blame me, who do I blame!" ”
"Isn't that outing picture in a tree hollow? Is it that hard to click on a painting? ”
The fat man wiped his snot and tears from his face with his sleeve, and his mood calmed down a little.
Lin Chen took his arm and said, "You get up first!" Get up and speak! You're a big man too, look at what you look like! Snot and tears again, and pants peeing again! You're not ashamed! ”
The fat man stood up and said unconvinced: "Don't laugh at me first!" Replace it with you try! You know how scary that thing is! Those blood-red and charming eyes let you take a look, if you don't scare you to death, I admire you! ”
Lin Chen grabbed his hair and smiled, "Okay, to be serious, I didn't care about you, I had a little trouble halfway!" The location of the tree hole is quite high, hidden in a small crevice in the recess above the tree, which is not difficult to find, but the problem is not as simple as we imagined. You're right! The old dead tree is the one you hid in your travel map in your previous life, and I looked into the hollow of the tree by the bright light, and vaguely saw that there was indeed a wooden box-like thing inside, and I thought it should be that picture. It's just that time has passed, the situation has changed, the tree has grown taller, the hole has become deeper, and the hole entrance is also very narrow. ”
"Can't you take it out?"
The fat man asked, furrowing his eyebrows.
Lin Chen nodded, "When I found two long branches, and was about to stretch them in, a big flower snake suddenly popped out of the hole, spitting letters at me, which is terrifying!" ”
"Huh? Snake? ”
"Yes! The snake is colorful, with a triangular head, and it looks like a poisonous snake at first glance! ”
"O viper! So how did you get that picture out? The fat man blinked.
Lin Chen smiled, found a stone to sit down proudly, and asked, "If it's you, what would you do?" ”
"Me?" The fat man rubbed his head, the moment his hand touched the lump on the back of his head, he paused, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face, he walked in front of Lin Chen, turned his head and let Lin Chen see, "Lin Chen, the pimple on the back of my head seems to be gone!" ”
Lin Chen brushed aside the fat man's hair, examined it carefully, and said excitedly: "Really! It's incredible! That terrible lump disappeared without a trace, not even a scar! ”
The fat man rolled up his sleeves and found that the red bumps on his arms had also disappeared.
"The pimples on my body are gone!" The fat man looked happy.
"What pimple?" Lin Chen asked.
"What's even more terrible than the lump on the back of my head is that the female ghost made my arm full of dense little white hands, disgusting to death! I can see that my scalp is numb! Later, it turned into a large area of red bumps! Now it's gone, just like the lump on the back of the head! ”
As he spoke, the fat man stroked his arm excitedly, and couldn't help sighing, "Lin Chen, this female ghost is really powerful!" ”
"The Taoist chief said that all these strange things came from that picture! Now that the diagram is gone, your strange illness will be cured! By the way, you haven't told me yet, if it were you, what would you do in the face of that poisonous snake in the cave? Lin Chen found a stone, sat on it, and continued to ask rhetorically.
The fat man had already recovered from the horror just now, listened to Lin Chen's words, fell into Shen En again, and sat next to Lin Chen with a frown after a while, "I heard that it is very troublesome to lure the snake out of the hole!" First of all, you need to know what kind of snake is hidden inside, and different snakes need different baits. Secondly, it depends on whether the snake is hungry or not! There is ruins all around, what did you catch as bait? ”
Lin Chen smiled and shook his head, Wait until I catch mice or frogs and then go to catch snakes, it is estimated that your old man has already been taken out like Yang Yuanshan, and he is dead!
The fat man was curious: "Then how did you do it?" ”
"It's simple, I didn't bother to pay attention to the snake, I just set the tree on fire! The old dead tree is easy to burn, and the travel map inside is also burned! You've been rescued! ”
The fat man stretched out his hands and gave two thumbs up in front of Lin Chen, "You're still tall!" ”
"It's nothing! I just thought, this is weird! Lin Chen looked around and continued, "Fatty, this place is very weird! Don't you think it's strange from the time the bus fell into the water to the time we floated here? ”
The fat man nodded and said, "When you say that, I think this thing is really strange, I didn't know how I got out of that car at the time, and I happened to find the tree with the travel map in the memory of my previous life, and at the critical moment, you set the tree on fire to save my life!" Every step is so inch, so clever! It's like someone is arranging it in the dark! ”
"yes!" Lin Chen stared at the fat man, "You just saw the woman in black disappear?" ”
"Hmmm! In the midst of lightning and thunder, the woman turned into a puff of black smoke and finally disappeared into the air! ”
"It seems that what the Taoist chief said is indeed true, the Meng family lost their travel map in the previous life, and there were many disasters in the family, and this life is also weird! Now that the travel map has been burned to ashes, I hope it will be peaceful from now on! Lin Chen said, sighed, and added, "I don't know if Ye Jiangchuan and Bai Meimei can escape this catastrophe like the two of us?" ”
As he was talking, Lin Chen suddenly felt that the scenery and things around him seemed to be hidden around him, obscured by a white fog, and turned into a large blur.
"What's going on? Is there something wrong with my eyes? The fat man asked nervously as he rubbed his eyes with his hands.
"Me too! Why is the surroundings so blurry! Lin Chen blinked vigorously.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"Can't you see clearly?"
"Well, it shouldn't be our eyes, it's foggy! The fog is too thick and too dense to obscure our vision! ”
Lin Chen remembered the time in Lao Mokou, the appearance of the Dao Leader and the change of scene after the fog, this time the scene was very similar to the last time.
"Yes, it's fog! Sudden fog! We've seen it in Lao Mokou! ”
The fat man nodded affirmatively.
Just as the two of them were at a loss, the fog suddenly disappeared, and their vision became clearer, and they realized at the same time that there were three people in their field of vision, walking from the other side of the forest.
"Someone's coming!" The fat man whispered.
"Yes"
Looking at it, Lin Chen and the fat man jumped up with excitement.
These three people are Ye Jiangchuan, Bai Meimei and Dao Chang.
"Yikes! You're all alive! ”
The fat man was so happy that the corners of his mouth reached the base of his neck, and he took Lin Chen's hand and stepped forward.
"What a word!"
Lin Chen pinched the fat man's arm with the tips of his fingers, and the fat man was in pain, "Ouch! The ground screamed.
"Alive! No, everyone is alive and well! Bai Meimei said with a smile.
"Thank goodness! If only everyone is safe! The fat man said.
Lin Chen looked at Ye Jiangchuan and Bai Meimei in confusion, and asked, "Didn't the purple bus that a few of us were riding in rush into the river, how did you two escape?" ”
Bai Meimei said: "You and the fat man can survive, and Ye Jiangchuan and I can survive as well!" ”
Seeing that Lin Chen and the fat man were still full of confusion on their faces, Ye Jiangchuan said to the Dao Elder: "Don't go around in circles with the two of them, let's talk to the Dao Elder!" You're not done yet! ”
The Taoist stroked his beard and laughed "hahahaha".
"In times of crisis, you don't care about us! You're still laughing! The fat man shook his arm and glanced at the Taoist chief in displeasure, "I don't care if we live or die!" Let the fortune teller inform us that we got on such an unlucky purple bus, not only did we encounter ghosts, but the car also fell into the river, causing us to almost die! We're so unlucky, and you can still laugh! ”
"Good! Don't laugh anymore! Don't laugh anymore! The Taoist chief smiled, but was not angry, and said calmly, "Let you be frightened!" Remember what I told you about travel maps? ”
"Remember!" Lin Chen said, "You said that in the previous life, the Mengfu was lost because of the loss of this picture, so it suffered bad luck one after another, you said that the picture was originally Zhong Kui's demon, but because the demons turned into a child, Zhong Kui's eyes were lost, so there are only seven children on this painting and no Zhong Kui, you also said that the heavens cursed, once this painting is lost, it means that the demons are out of control, weird, so the children on the picture must die!" ”
Ye Jiangchuan added: "I remember that the Taoist chief also told us that this painting has harmed many people, all because the demons have long been ambushed by Zhong Kui, and the curse of heaven is still there, so everyone associated with it will die!" ”
Dao Chang nodded frequently, "Unfortunately, a few of you in this world are just associated with this diagram!" And the souls of Ding Shujiao, Wu Ma and others who wandered in the yin and yang world have a deep hatred for your previous life, and this resentment has become a vicious force, a force that wants to kill you! It is because of the spell of this figure that you will die, and they will be the executors! Of course, innocent people are also involved in this process, such as Straw Yellow and the young couple - a six-fingered woman and a flat-headed man! They were borrowed by Ding Shujiao, the evil spirit of the woman in black, and died a pitiful death! ”
The Taoist chief's words made several people dumbfounded.
"It's horrible!" The fat man's eyes widened, as if he remembered something, and he asked puzzledly, "But I don't understand, why did the Taoist ask the fortune teller to tell us to get on that terrible purple bus?" ”
"Yes! It was such bad luck to get on that purple bus! Halfway through, a ghost came up and eventually fell into the river! Ye Jiangchuan repeated the fat man's words just now with a puzzled expression.
The Taoist chief didn't speak, and unhurriedly took something out of his arms.
"Ebony!"
Lin Chen immediately said the name of this thing.
The Dao Leader nodded, "I used this treasure to sense that several of you are already in danger, and you are certain to die!" The Divine Curse is no joke! From the deaths of Xu Aqi and Yang Yuanshan, you should be able to know! What's even more terrifying is that the evil spirits have begun to manipulate your minds, and even the ghost babies have been born! The birth of the ghost baby means that there will be more innocent people besides you! But the evil is too powerful to solve anything I can! Just when I was at a loss, I happened to meet a master who was also in the Purple Cloud Heavenly Realm, and he didn't tell me his name. Just say you," the Taoist priest said, looking at Lin Chen, "Say that you shouldn't die!" He also said that we are both cultivators of the Purple Cloud Heavenly Realm, how can we allow ghosts to do evil and harm the world, and I want to help a few of you escape from this calamity! ”
"Let's get on the purple bus and his guidance?" The fat man asked.
"Yes! If it weren't for the purple bus, you would have died! No one can escape it! It's just that I didn't expect the evil spirit to catch up! There was also a river crash! Thankfully, you've all turned the corner! ”
Lin Chen said to Ye Jiangchuan: "After talking for a long time, you still haven't told me that the car fell into the water, how did you and Bai Meimei escape?" ”
"The two of us?" Ye Jiangchuan looked at Bai Meimei, "I feel like someone is really protecting me, the moment the car fell into the river, the door opened, and we were thrown out, not only did we not fall into the water, but we were also unscathed!" Then we saw the Taoist head coming towards us! We talked for a while, and the Taoist took us to the two of you. Now that I think about it, it was no accident that the two of us survived in such a thrilling situation at that time! ”
Bai Meimei nodded, "Yes! ”
The fat man raised his eyes and looked at the Dao Chief, and muttered in a low voice, "The Dao Chief is eccentric!" Everybody's fine, that's all
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Leave me alone, let me suffer so much alone! ”
The Taoist chief said, "Why didn't I help you!" When you fall into the water, where does the wood come from? And the dead tree that hides the travel map, why did you happen to come across it? ”
The fat man didn't speak again.
Lin Chen blinked his eyes and said curiously, "Yes! Dao Lord, I'm also weird! If we hadn't found the location of the figure at the critical moment, we would all have died! ”
"That's because the masters of the Purple Cloud Realm have used the Taoist method of transferring objects! I have moved the tree of my past life for you! Through stimulation, the memory of the fat man's past life is evoked! In the end, you were able to burn the travel map, and the evil spirits such as the woman in black, the old lady, and the ghost baby were eradicated, and you escaped from this catastrophe! ”
"The Great Law of Transferring?" Lin Chen was confused.
The Taoist nodded and said: "The Great Law of Transferring Objects is only one of the Dao Methods, in fact, that time you were able to escape from the well, there were also masters who helped you, and it was the Great Law of Transferring Things, which the Taoists called the Escape Technique." ”
Lin Chen scratched the back of his head and said thoughtfully: "I remember that I met a girl in a blue gauze skirt, and the terrible well she took me away from, could it be that this girl is what you call a master?" ”
The Dao Leader pondered: "This kind of spell is extraordinary, it should be a Dao master who has cultivated the most in the Purple Cloud Realm to use it so unfathomably!" I tried to ask, but the real person was silent about me, and I couldn't ask again! As for the girl in the blue gauze skirt you mentioned, I think it's just a fantasy of yours! Someone is helping you, with the help of such an illusion! ”
Lin Chen touched the cinnabar mole under his ear and wondered, "Just because of this mole?" ”
Dao Chang nodded frequently, "Well, I remember I told you that His Holiness has a strange mole, inheriting the Purple Cloud Heaven!" ”
"There's one more thing I don't understand!" The fat man thought for a while, "Dao Elder Dao, you said that Ding Shujiao and Wu Ma turned into evil spirits and wandered in the Yin and Yang Realm and could not be reincarnated, one was because of the abuse and killing of the thousand-year-old spirit cat, and the curse was very deep, and the other was the son who was nostalgic for his previous life, so why did He Qingping do?" How did she turn into Mrs. Liu who gnawed the bark of a tree and turned into a ghost? ”
The Taoist chief didn't speak, twisted his fingers around the black bead wood, and muttered, "This woman is also pitiful! She was entangled by the two spirit babies who had miscarried and couldn't get out, so she could only be like Ding Shujiao and Wu's mother, who also wandered in the yin and yang world! ”
"I see!" Lin Chen muttered.
Ye Jiangchuan always had a solemn expression, and walked to the side in a daze, with his back to everyone, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lin Chen followed, "Dude, the evil spirit ghost has disappeared!" Be happy! What's wrong with you? ”
Ye Jiangchuan ignored Lin Chen, turned around and said to the Dao Chief, "Dao Master, does Ding Shujiao still have a soul?" ”
"Huh?" The fat man pouted and said, "Ye Jiangchuan, are you still nostalgic for that female ghost?" She hasn't tortured you enough, do you still want to find her? ”
Ye Jiangchuan shook his head, "I just want to ask, after all, I loved her in my previous life, after all, she has been infatuated with me for so long!" ”
The Dao Chief sighed, "It's all over!" Whether she can still have a remnant soul, and whether she can be reincarnated depends on her creation! This is God's arrangement, our Taoists emphasize doing nothing, coming and going, who to meet in this life, who to fall in love with, everything will be natural! ”
"Then Zhao Xiaoshuang and Liu Peizhu also go with the flow?"
The fat man said, peeking at Lin Chen and Bai Meimei, but seeing that the two glanced at each other, he lowered his head in embarrassment.
The Taoist chief smiled, "Yes! Let it be! ”
Two or three rooster crows were heard in the distance, and the sky brightened.
"That's not right!" Lin Chen looked around in confusion, "Before you arrived, it was still dusk here, how long had it been, why did you hear the rooster crowing now, and the sky was gradually brightening?" I'm a little confused! ”
"This, you don't understand!" Ye Jiangchuan patted Dao Chang on the shoulder, "Don't say it, I'll answer him!" The reason why you Lin Chen didn't feel the night and directly transitioned to dawn was because we were already in an illusion! Am I right, Daoist? ”
The Taoist only smiled and did not answer.
"What? Another phantom mirror? I'm almost dazzled by this reality! The fat man looked at the Taoist chief and asked, "Daoist, tell me, what about us now?" Where are we now? ”
The Taoist chief said, "See for yourself! ”
"See for myself?" The fat man looked at the Dao Chief suspiciously, walked up to a big rock, and looked around, "This place is familiar!" That path should be the path leading from the subway station to the apartment building! Lin Chen, come here! ”
The fat man waved to Lin Chen as he spoke, and Lin Chen also jumped on the big stone and watched intently in the direction of the fat man's finger.
"Isn't this the grove in the woods apartment?" Lin Chen said in surprise.
"That's right! It's the woods apartment! The Taoist chief smiled and continued: "You see, a residential area on the other side of the forest is not a forest apartment! ”
"Well, the one that smokes upstairs is Building 19!" The fat man clapped his hands and said, "It's so strange, we obviously drifted down the river to a bush, where there is a ruin, how come we are back in the woods apartment in a blink of an eye!" ”
"It's nothingness, it's an illusion! In the illusion world, the masters of the Purple Cloud Realm have helped you complete the mission of eliminating evil spirits! Now, you're back in the real world! You see, the sun is out! ”
Following the Dao Chief's words, several people looked up at the sky.
On the horizon, a round of fiery red sunrise broke free from the confinement of the earth, is rising, bright and dazzling, the golden morning glow dyed the eastern sky, soon, the glow of the sky, the sky and the earth painted a layer of bright red oil paint, through the thick clouds, radiating dazzling light.
