Chapter 15 Asking for Seals
Just when we were glad to be able to get out of the ghost wall, there was a person in front of us who was wearing a yellow leather jacket, yellow pants, yellow boots, yellow eyes and yellow beard. Out of politeness, Xu Youyou called out cordially: "Uncle." ”
Which Cheng thought, he was more excited than us, originally sitting on the stone with two feet crossed and smoking a cigarette pouch, suddenly jumped up and squatted on the stone like a monkey, grabbed the cigarette pouch in his hand, and said excitedly and nervously: "You go back to me first!" ”
"What's the problem?"
"Do you think I look like a human?"
"You're human, what's not like you?"
"You say I'm human!"
"Aang."
Hearing Xu Youyou say this, the man squatted on the stone and clapped his hands repeatedly: "Hahaha, it's done!" It's done! After saying that, he couldn't stop laughing, like an innocent child.
Just when we were confused, he kowtowed three times to the mountain in the south, and said something in his mouth: "Huang Tianfeng, thank Your Holiness for enlightening." ”
This time confused me and Xu Youyou, I don't know what happened to this person. But when I looked at Venna, she was surprisingly calm and didn't say a word.
I couldn't help but whisper: "Wen Na, this ......"
Venna put her finger to her lips and motioned for me not to speak, and I knew there was something going on with her attitude. Sure enough, the Minion turned around after kowtowing, and looked at Xu Youyou with a smile, and the already small yellow eyes couldn't be seen at all.
He stroked the yellow goatee on his mouth with his hand: "Hehe, respect ......" Before he finished speaking, his eyes rolled twice: "Little girl, do you want to ask which way to go?" ”
"Aang." Xu Youyou was noncommittal.
"Hehe, which of these two roads do you want to take?"
"Which one can get to Baofeng Temple?"
"Up to the sky, down to the earth. It's just not through Baofeng Temple. ”
"Ahh What does it mean? ”
The strange man named Huang Tianfeng said this, and I was also anxious in my heart, Wen Na saw my expression and wanted to hold me but was a step late. Huang Tianfeng was stunned when he heard me speak, looked at me, and then put away his smile.
"Uncle, what do you mean?" I asked again.
"Hehe," Huang Tianfeng smiled at the corner of his mouth and stroked his beard again, turned his head and continued to tell Xu Youyou: "The little girl will give you something, if this kid can't help it, he will give it to him." Huang Tianfeng ignored me, took out a crystal clear heart-shaped thing from his dirty leather jacket and threw it to Xu Youyou, this thing is so big with a chicken heart, how can it look like crystal. Sensei said that Xu Youyou took it directly with her hands, and even on her side, I felt a burst of coolness.
Xu Youyou looked at it and asked, "What is this?" ”
"You'll know when the time comes." Huang Tianfeng took a puff of cigarette and continued: "The road you are going to walk is behind this big rock under me, you only ......"
As soon as we heard him say, "The road is behind the stones," we rushed over without him finishing the rest of the sentence, intending to see what was going on! was stopped by him with a cigarette pouch rod: "Hey, don't worry. I'm not done. ”
"What?" Xu Youyou asked hurriedly.
"Little girl, we have a fate, and I will slowly repay your great kindness today. I would like to send you juniors a word: the destiny of heaven cannot be violated, some things cannot be hidden, cherish the people around you, and guard against the people around you. After saying that, he knocked the cigarette pouch again and said, "Go ahead." ”
Without thanking him, we hurried behind the big rock. As a result, I was dumbfounded, what is the way here! Isn't it still a big rock? Xu Youyou was a little nervous, and was just about to go to the front to theorize a few words, but when he looked up, he found that there was not even a figure on the stone!
I'll go, it's too fast, isn't it? I took the opportunity to touch the stone where Huang Tianfeng had been sitting, but found that it was cold and cold, not like someone had been on it at all.
"Don't look for it." Venna didn't care.
"Huh?" Xu Youyou and I were stunned.
"Most of him is here to 'beg for a seal', and seeing that he is wearing yellow all over his body, it is estimated that he is a weasel in this mountain."
"What is 'begging for a seal'?" Xu Youyou asked.
"The ancients believed that heaven and earth give birth to all things, and all things have spirits. Man is the spirit of all things. That's why the ancients would have so many legends of cultivating immortals and eventually attaining immortality. And the heart of immortal and Taoist is not only possessed by human beings, birds and beasts with fur and horns, and even mayflies that die in the twilight of life, will also have the heart of immortality and immortal cultivation. However, they are much more difficult than humans, and the first thing to do is to remove the feathers on their bodies and cultivate into a human body. Wen Na said.
"White lady?" I interjected.
Wen Na thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes." ”
To be honest, I've always been skeptical of this kind of thing, and even if I met a ghost hitting the wall before, I thought it was just a natural phenomenon to get lost. So, when Wen Na told me this, I just thought that she had dabbled in more books and knew what I didn't know, and I didn't think much about it at all.
Wen Na continued: "After years of cultivation, some mountain spirits are finally able to move like humans, and even some mountain spirits and wild monsters can use blinding methods such as 'ghost blinding' to confuse others, but they have not yet shed the fur and scales on their bodies. If you want to turn into a human form, you must also go through the level of 'asking for a seal', God designates a place for them, and when they meet someone who is destined, they only need to ask 'I am like a person', and if the person being asked says 'like', then this is considered to be a seal, such a spirit generally does not do bad things, and will do more good deeds, such as curing diseases and saving people in order to go further, and there are many benefits for the person who is rewarded. On the other hand, if it is said that it is not like, then even if the spirit has been practicing for decades or even hundreds of years, it will need to be re-cultivated, and some may escape into reincarnation and may not be able to reach the previous state again. The person who gives the reward will be retaliated against it in the future, and it may be a serious illness at the least, or a serious family downfall. I'm afraid that the spirit of the begging for the title will not disperse and entangle the descendants of the person who was rewarded, then it will suffer. ”
The more Wen Na talked, the more mysterious she became, and she was stunned when she said that Xu Youyou and I were stunned. Especially Xu Youyou, who was talking to the person named Huang Tianfeng with a big grin, when she heard the other party ask if she looked like a person, she almost blurted out that she didn't look like it, thanks to her good mouth, otherwise she would have it? And for me, I don't know what Huang Tianfeng, who just "begged for", wants to do, but I often listen to my grandmother tell her mother-in-law's story, and I always feel that these yellow skins are not good things, plus Wen Na's words, which makes me even more afraid of yellow skins.
Immediately afterwards, Wen Na said to Xu Youyou with a little reproach: "I wanted to hold you just now, but how did I know that you were so fast?" Just passed, but fortunately you didn't say anything wrong. Wen Na said as she observed the back of the stone in Huang Tian's seal.
Not to mention that there are not afraid of problems in this world, what we are afraid of are those who solve problems. As soon as Wen Na made a move, all the problems were solved, she first knocked the stone with her hand, the stone did not make the sound it should have, and it seemed to be empty inside.
So he turned his head to Xu Youyou and said, "Youyou, you have practiced sanda before, right?" ”
"yes."
"Come here, kick at the stone."
"Huh?"
Wen Na said this, I'm also a little dizzy, can this stone be kicked? She didn't know that those who kicked the board and cut bricks were all for show?
I hurriedly stopped Xu Youyou, and then said to Wen Na: "Wen Na, is that a stone?" ”
Wen Na was not angry, but smiled faintly: "This stone doesn't seem to be real, it's empty inside." Don't believe you? ”
I walked over in disbelief, touched it with my hand, and felt a little strange, so I tapped it with my finger like Wen Na, and then said to Xu Youyou: "Xu Youyou, try it, be careful of hurting your feet." ”
I originally had good intentions, but Xu Youyou looked disgusted: "Like you, your foot will break after running a few steps on my back." After speaking, he threw me a roll of the eyes, came up and gently pushed me: "Get out of the way." ”
She took two steps back, "bah" twice in her hand, took advantage of the situation to lift the clothes that were missing one sleeve, and couldn't help but say that she took a step forward and turned around and kicked sideways, all in one go! Not to mention how handsome the action is, I'm ashamed of myself as a big boy. Then, the sound of the wooden board being kicked and broken suddenly came from the ears of the three of them, and no one expected that the next scene caught the three of us off guard!
Just after Xu Youyou kicked the "back" of the boulder under his feet, a "black hole" actually appeared, which seemed to have a strong suction force to suck Xu Youyou's feet and the things that were kicked together, and dragged them inside, which scared Xu Youyou into exclaim!
At first, Wen Na and I didn't react. It wasn't until Xu Youyou shouted "help" that I instinctively grabbed her outstretched hand forward, and Wen Na followed closely behind and grabbed me and dragged me back. But the suction of that black hole was too great, and it had already engulfed Xu Youyou's lower body in a blink of an eye, and Wen Na and I couldn't pull it no matter how hard we tried! In a moment, only my head and one arm were left outside, and I was so anxious that I shouted, "Don't let go!" "I obviously felt that the soles of my feet had become slimy because of the excessive force, and beads of sweat oozed from my head, and I couldn't see clearly when I fell on my glasses, but I said to myself in my heart that I must not let go! I think the same should be true of Venna......
"Let it go!" Xu Youyou, who was still struggling at the beginning, suddenly yelled at me and Wen Na.
"Don't let it go!" I also turned up the volume.
"You'll be sucked in, too!"
"Shut up!"
"I don't want anything to happen to you!"
After speaking, Xu Youyou relaxed the strength of her hands, and saw that her head had been sucked in, and the smiling and tearful face disappeared in front of my eyes. All I could do was howl, "Xu Yoyo! But she didn't react, no matter how hard I pulled her, and by the end, her hand had been completely sucked in, but I could still feel the temperature on her hand, and I couldn't let go......
"Let go!" At this time, Wen Na shouted at me, her eyes widening.
"No ......"
"Ahh
Before I could finish my sentence, Venna suddenly screamed, and then she unconsciously hugged me. It turned out that a stone behind us had just been sucked up by the black hole and smashed right on Venna's back. As a result, Wen Na's bodies and I involuntarily slid forward, burrowing into the black hole without any struggle. At that moment, I thought to myself, this time it's completely finished! Then it suddenly went dark in front of me, and I didn't know anything......
I don't know how long it took, but I opened my eyes in a dizziness and saw that Wen Na and Xu Youyou were by my side before I was relieved. Looking around, there were five messed up tents on our side, I picked up my glasses and saw that it was our previous tent, but the tent was empty, obviously Xu Shuai, Zhang Peng, and the people who had captured them had already left. Thankfully, we're back, though!
I rubbed my brain, which was still a little dazed, and it seemed as if someone was shouting something in my ears, and the voice was far and near, and I couldn't hear it very clearly......
Maybe I'm dreaming about lying down for a while. As I thought to myself, the voice grew clearer and clearer. Finally, I could hear it completely clearly, it was actually a man and a woman shouting "help"!
Sitting up with his body propped up, he had no time to care about the pain under his feet, and used all his strength to shake Wen Na and Xu Youyou awake. Wen Na woke up and covered her head, it seemed to be the same reaction as me! But Xu Youyou is not.
When she woke up, she looked at her hands and feet, then turned her head to look at me and was stunned, and then a bear hugged and cried. What can I do? I had to pat her back with my hand to comfort: "Okay, it's all over, it's all over." ”
But Xu Youyou didn't seem to hear it crying. Think about it, who can stay calm when this kind of thing happens? There are two "dangers" in this world that are the most frightening and helpless. The first is the "known danger", this danger is that the ending is already known but cannot be changed, just like those patients who are terminally ill now, whether it is themselves or their relatives around them, they know the final outcome, but they are always unwilling to admit or accept it, and always want to fight against fate, but in the end there are very few people who can resist the arrangement of fate, even if they can really survive, they have to survive for a lifetime, after all, it is simply a fantasy to face death calmly, anyway, I never believe it; The second is the "unknown danger" we experience, no one knows what will happen before we are sucked into the gold black hole, so we will try our best to fight to resist, hoping to win a glimmer of life, but in the end we can only accept it. An "unknown danger" may have a better chance of surviving than a "known danger". Once this danger is removed, a collapse is a normal reaction. It's just that everyone has a different degree of collapse, and I am so confused, and Xu Youyou guess it's the same. The difference is that she expressed it, and I had to pretend to be calm to comfort the two girls.
Here I patted Xu Youyou, and looked back at Wen Na. I really admire her, I don't feel a trace of fear in this situation, I just sit on the ground and cover my head, as if thinking about some questions.
Just wanted to open her mouth to ask her what the situation was, but she took the first step: "Did you hear someone shouting for help?" ”
That's when I remembered it! Hurriedly pushed Xu Youyou away: "Yes, I heard it just now." I was trying to tell you about it! ”
Xu Youyou stopped crying, couldn't help but say, and ran over along with the shouting! I tried to hold her, but I was still a step too late, and then I heard her roar: "You guys! ”
