Chapter 204: Private Morality
The next day, before dawn, Ning Xiao, who had already walked out of the space, walked out of the room with the system and went to the temple.
The steps of the temple are very steep, about twenty steps, and every time you climb up, you have to stop and gasp for breath. When panting, you can't look back at the sky, you can only look down at the ground. Otherwise, you will be dizzy. This feeling is very peculiar, like soaring into the sky and climbing the ladder to heaven.
Finally, I entered the temple. There is no place to sit, only to stand and breathe. Ning Xiao and the system knelt down to the Buddha statue of Shakyamuni. This was the first time she had kowtowed so many times in a temple at an altitude of 5,000 meters. Thirty, or fifty? She couldn't even remember.
I only remember that right now, my heart is empty and there are no distractions. I thought that my physical strength would be exhausted in the constant knocking of my head. However, she did not feel tired, but her heart was clear. When she got up, she also lit the butter lamp for the offerings.
At the top of the temple, there is a cave that can only be entered by one cat. It is said that many virtuous monks have become Buddhas in this cave. As long as you are lucky enough to enter the cave to worship, you can avoid the suffering of the seventh reincarnation.
"I don't think reincarnation is bitter!" When facing the cave, Ning Xiao said to the system. "I still want to become an immortal and a god, but I don't want to become a Buddha."
"Master, whatever, let's go and have a look first!" The system kindly proposed.
"Hmm!" Ning Xiao answered, and then he had the intention of entering the cave.
The entrance to the cave is so narrow that people bend over and almost climb in. The only light came in from outside the cave.
The moment I first entered, I couldn't see the inside clearly in my eyes, and I only felt that it was dark. Ning Xiao knelt down and crawled forward with both hands touching the ground. After about two or three steps, his hands suddenly touched a mass of objects.
If you listen carefully, you can feel that it is clearly the breath of people. The loss is Ning Xiao, if it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would scream. The man was obviously kneeling there muttering something. After Ning Xiao apologized, he exited the cave. The system came out right after her.
Walking out of the temple, the sky was still dark, so that the main peak of the sacred mountain in front of him could only be a vague and huge outline.
Gloomy back. Suddenly looking up, the sky was full of stars, dense as white dust. I couldn't help but exclaim. There are so many stars, like snowflakes flying in the sky, and it feels like it is about to fall, and the next heavy snowfall will be.
Under this quiet starry sky, Ning Xiao suddenly thought of the words "Empty Flower Dojo". She craned her neck, feeling suffocating. The miraculous beauty of the starry sky is another kind of suffocation.
This kind of miraculous and beautiful starry sky will not be encountered once in hundreds of years before the end of the world, let alone after the end of the world. However, here, she saw it at a glance and felt that she had no regrets in her heart.
"Master, in the face of such a dazzling starry sky," even the system admired. "Our trip was not in vain."
"Let's take a picture of it!!" Ning Xiao was reminding the system.
"Ouch, yes!" The system hurriedly reached out to the space to get the camera. However, he quickly said to Ning Xiao embarrassedly, "Master, we forgot to prepare the camera. There wasn't a single camera in the space. ”
"Don't you have a cell phone?" Ning Xiao still couldn't help but remind. "Then the camera function on it should be no less than the camera, right?"
"Oh, yes!" In this way, the system took out the mobile phone from the space and recorded the beautiful starry sky.
The sky finally dawned, and Ning Xiao set off again with the system. The monk who had collected the food kindly told them that when they left the monastery, there was a steep and dangerous rocky slope, known as the "Hell Slope", which was about ten kilometers long.
Try to insist on climbing up in one breath, don't stay too long, go straight to the top of the pass, and go downhill. If you can't rush through the pass and collapse, you may never be able to get by. Because the road called "Hell Slope" actually has no road, it is all rocks. In case something happens, in this day and age, no one can save you.
That's it, people. When you are in the warmth of safety, you are terrified when you think about the dangerous things that can happen in the outside world.
However, when people do reach that dangerous situation, it is difficult to turn back, and at the same time, there is no choice, so they can only be fearless. can only be dragged forward by a force, to discover, to experience, to adventurous, but that unimaginable other place, until the end of life.
Walking out of the mountain temple, the cold wind was whistling into the body. A thin layer of ice has accumulated on the ground. So, all the way slippery, like walking on thin ice.
When I came to the rocky slope, I found that it was a steep slope of almost 70 degrees. Man has to go around between the great rocks. Many times, I couldn't walk upright and had to bend down or lie down and climb up the rocks.
The hand touched the frozen rock, and the cold air drilled through the glove, and it was biting cold. The system was so cold that it gritted its teeth. He couldn't help but look enviously at Ning Xiao who was crawling in front of him. This kind of cold is nothing to her.
It's just that at this time, no one can allow themselves to make the slightest mistake. If you accidentally slip under your feet, there is a good chance that someone will roll down the mountain on their backs. You can only rely on your own strength to move forward little by little.
No one dared to turn their heads to look behind them. If you accidentally roll down, no one will know where you are rolling.
Fortunately, it was a sunny day. Except for the bleak gusts of wind blowing from the snowy mountains, there was no rain, let alone snow. The sun is slowly illuminating Mount Kinabalu.
My body gradually warmed up, and my hands and feet became more flexible. It's just out of breath, and it's like it's smoking. I don't know how many times I rested, but I only stayed for a while, and I didn't dare to sit. I'm afraid that as soon as I sit down, I really won't be able to get up.
After walking through a steep slope, there is a winding sheep intestine path in front of you, and after a few turns, you can see the rising sun. It shines brightly on the sacred mountain, and it is dazzling. I was instantly moved by what I saw.
The hillside is getting higher and higher, and the pass can be seen as soon as you look up. However, it is right in front of you, but you can't always go, you can't go forever, you can't go forever, it's so far behind.
The ramp began to get narrow and steep again. My heart was beating faster, my blood was rushing up, I was dizzy, and my chest was tightened like a stone. If there is an open space nearby, you can let people lie down. People never remember.
Ning Xiao gritted his teeth, but he still had to climb up persistently, and he would climb over the pass even if he died.
Many moments, a thought will pop up: don't go, sit down, or lie down, you really can't walk. Whenever this thought appears, the body begins to shake, and I just want to fall down, and I want to die.
However, another voice is saying to her, hold on, hold on, you will definitely be able to. You're going to climb up to the dumb mouth in one go. Otherwise, you will have to stay here forever, and you must go back alive.
Ning Xiao didn't want to stay here forever. She didn't want to die yet. Well, there is only one way forward. Persistence, persistence. The body is on the verge of collapse, as if it can dissolve at any moment. Only persistence.
Finally, a large number of dancing prayer flags were reached. When she realized that she was already dumb here, her heart was about to jump out. Excitement is inevitable. However, Ning Xiao just quietly sat himself down. Look up, with a grateful heart.
Mountains of prayer flags fluttered in a whirl. At the end of the prayer flags is a celestial burial platform. It is said that some souls can go to heaven from here. In this regard, Ning Xiao scoffed: this; The passage between the divine realm and the human world is closed. Don't talk about heaven, even the bird hall is gone.
"Master," the system's physical strength was repaired much faster than Ning Xiao's. He came to Ning Xiao and whispered. "I went to the burial platform to have a look, and I heard that the dry corpse cave is in that area."
"Well, go ahead!" Ning Xiao waved his hand.
I don't know how long it took, but the system turned around and replied, "Master, there really is a dry corpse cave there." Moreover, there are several. ”
"Oh," Ning Xiao had to stand up. "Then let's go check it out!"
"Master, are you okay?" Looking at Ning Xiao's walking posture, the system asked worriedly. "Why don't you call the little incense burner out and take you there?"
"No," Ning Xiao shook his head. "If you find Chai Dan in the dry corpse cave, you will have to rely on the small incense burner to carry me and Chai Dan out of here. Now, we have to give her enough rest. Otherwise, there's no problem with carrying me. Carrying zombies, she lifted the plate, and no one would sell face. ”
"Master," the system felt puzzled. "Doesn't that zombie have a crow as a pet? When the time comes, tell him to summon the crow, and it will be all right. ”
"Alas, if we find Chai Dan in the Dry Corpse Cave," Ning Xiao said with a helpless expression. "That means he's half dead. Then it would be impossible for the crow to obey him. ”
"Ahh The system never expected that going to the dry corpse cave would be so much trouble. "Master, let's not go to the corpse cave. Saving zombies will be troublesome! ”
"Hmm," Ning Xiao glanced sideways. "You and Chai Dan were both victimized by that old dryad. I have saved you, how can I not save him? The latest chapter of "The Last Days: The Fairy Wife Rampant Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
