I never thought about cultivation, and the word 'cultivation' used to exist only on TV in my consciousness, but after meeting Yanagawa Minami, I naturally accepted it.

But even so, I never thought that I wanted to cultivate, and in my opinion, this thing was like metaphysics, and I couldn't figure it out.

"One step further, it is to stand side by side with me, we will cultivate together, and face this world full of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods together." Yanagawa Nan held my shoulder and looked forward to it.

Only then did I understand what he meant, he was with me, and his original intention was to encircle me, be his canary, and protect me wholeheartedly; And the next step is to train me to be strong and able to take charge on my own, and we will advance and retreat together.

However, I don't think it's realistic.

"Liu Chuannan, you have cultivated for more than a thousand years to have the cultivation you have now, there is no limit to time for you, and I am different, I only have a few decades of time, and I can't practice ugly, compared to the so-called cultivation, I want to make achievements in other aspects, such as medicine, such as Gu arts, and I also think these are more realistic." I said it truthfully.

"How do you know if you don't try? You must be talented, and besides, don't you still have me? Liu Chuannan was very patient and tried to convince me, "It's very simple, I'll teach you the mental method, you just follow me to practice." ”

"I don't want to waste my time." I outright refuse.

Liu Chuannan couldn't help it, and said with a smile: "You don't need to do anything, just lie down and enjoy it, it's just to take some time to study the mental method, is it that difficult?" ”

"Difficult."

Liu Chuannan was amused by me so angry and funny, and he didn't force me, but when he was lying on the bed with me, he began to recite the heart method by himself, I turned my back to him, and I didn't sleep for so long, so I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep, and after he finished reading it, he didn't ask me if I listened to it, and then began to explain, how to run, where is the hurdle, how to deal with it, and the old monk chanted the scriptures.

In the end, I began to get dazed and sleepy, and even listened to him recite the Dharma in my sleep.

I don't know how long this lasted, but I was suddenly woken up by the ringing of the phone, and a spirit sat up, and I saw Yanagawa Minami holding my mobile phone in his hand, staring at the screen.

I took a look, it was Wang Tiezhu calling, reaching out to take it, Liu Chuannan frowned, obviously unhappy, and didn't want to give it to me.

The phone rang for a while and hung up, and I saw that it was already half past two in the morning.

Three o'clock in the morning is the auspicious time when the statue of the tea god Niangniang is erected, Wang Tiezhu called me at this point, it must have reminded me to go to the sacrifice activities, I quickly got up to change my clothes and prepared to go out.

"Don't go." Liu Chuannan said this without a beginning or an end.

I shook my head: "I have been protected by the tea goddess since I was a child, no matter what happens to her, I have to do my best, and I must participate in tonight's sacrifice." ”

"If she is really so spiritual, how can your family suffer one after another?" Liu Chuannan didn't care, "It won't be peaceful tonight, let's stay at home and wait for the good show, don't make a fuss for yourself." ”

"Not peaceful?" I thought to myself, "You mean someone is going to make trouble?" ”

Yanagawa didn't speak, and I hurriedly said, "Who will come?" ”

After thinking about it, he suddenly understood: "You mean the people from Daojiazhai?" ”

The people of Daojiazhai for the white snake skin in the south of Liuchuan, have been pestering the patriarch for so long, and they will not give up if they don't do it, tonight they will erect the statue of the tea god Niangniang, when the sacrifice begins, everyone in the village will gather in Jiaolongpo, the patriarch presides over the sacrifice, and the people of Daojiazhai can just take advantage of the weakness to enter.

It is impossible for the patriarch to mistake the auspicious time for the statue of the tea god Niangniang for a white snake skin, although the white snake skin is precious, but after all, it is just a dead thing.

"If according to my prediction, it should be far more than Daojiazhai, Xiaocha, this trip to the troubled water, we have to watch the fire from the other side first, and take ourselves out, in order to see the overall situation clearly, otherwise, one link after another, it is likely to trap us to death." Yanagawa Minami said solemnly.

When I heard him say this, I suddenly retreated, after all, I am not a person who has never experienced anything, and when I was attacked again and again, the horror of facing death at close range made me feel palpitations every time I think about it.

Moreover, I also have resentment in my heart about the tea god Niangniang, and it is a fact that I am pious in worship, but the death of my grandmother has made me understand that the so-called worship is really just a psychological effect most of the time.

The whole Jiaolongpo rejects me, so it really doesn't matter if I stay here in the end, leaving this area, why should I worship the tea god Niangniang?

"Okay, I'll listen to you, don't go to Jiaolongpo first." Eventually, I made a decision.

The corners of Liu Chuannan's lips hooked: "This is good." ”

"But......" I hesitated a little, "I always feel a little lost in my heart if I don't get involved in such a big thing." ”

Liu Chuannan looked at me like that and said with a smile: "Actually, I can take you to participate in the whole process, but you have to make sure that you listen to me for everything, don't be impulsive, don't stir up the situation, okay?" ”

"Of course it will do." I was immediately happy.

By the time I got dressed, it was almost three o'clock, and Yanagawa Minami took me out, and he made an enchantment around him, wrapping me in it, so that others could not see me.

I was carrying a bag on my back, and in the bag was my brother's tablet, Yanagawa Minami didn't let me carry it like this at first, but I insisted, and he couldn't help it.

The sacrifice has begun, and the Jiaolong Slope, which originally circulated poignant myths, has now been dug flat, and a pit seven meters deep has been dug in the middle.

Next to the pit lies the statue of the tea god Niangniang, there is a rectangular offering table in front, the offering table is quite large, the Buddha statue of the tea god Niangniang is placed in the middle, the pig, sheep and cow heads are offered in front, all kinds of fruit cakes, and then forward, there are more than a dozen teacups, each teacup is steaming inside, these teacups are soaked in more than a dozen kinds of tea and camellia that are abundant in our village.

There was a copper basin in front of the offering table, the patriarch was kneeling there burning paper money, Wang Tiezhu was accompanying him, and the rest of the villagers were kneeling behind the patriarch, hundreds of people, and the momentum was huge.

Even those people from the construction team came forward to bow to the incense, these people traveled from south to north to do projects, well-informed, strange things must have been encountered, whether they are atheists or not, this scene still has to go.

"That's it here, after the worship, the statue of the tea god Niangniang fell to the ground, and after filling it in, come and bow and pray again, do you see that feng shui gentleman? He pretended to do a Dharma service again, and this matter would be over before dawn, there was nothing to see, let's go first. Yanagawa Minami said.

I nodded, if the forces lurking outside want to make a move, take advantage of the best time to steal things without knowing it, and even if the patriarch knows who did it, he can't point to anyone's nose and ask for things without evidence.

Liu Chuannan took me towards the patriarch's house, the white snake skin has been hidden in the patriarch's house, and I don't know if anyone has already done it.

"The last time you changed the white snake skin, where was it at the patriarch's house?" I asked.

"In the cellar." Yanagawa replied.

"I think the patriarch must have made a deployment, otherwise he wouldn't have felt at ease to put the white snake skin at home." I analyzed.

Liu Chuannan also agreed: "Your patriarch can manage Jiaolongpo in an orderly manner, it's not a wine bag and rice bag, the white snake skin is too big, he can't take it with him, so he will definitely try his best to protect the white snake skin, either to make traps around, or to find the safest place to hide, if you want to find it, it's not so easy." ”

"And how did you find it before?" I wondered.

"Can't you smell your own scent?" Liu Chuannan said with a smile, "But I can't smell it this time, after all, the white snake skin has been replaced with a fake, so it's okay, otherwise the people in Daojiazhai may also track according to the smell, and their family is very good at it." ”

"How do you know they're good at? What is different from ordinary people about the people of Daojiazhai? "Although their village is doing dead people's business, the business is quite decent.

"Don't ask about this, let's find a place to rest first."

As we were talking, we had arrived at the haystack opposite the patriarch's house, and Yanagawa Minami was leaning on the haystack with his arms around me.

I was completely different from him, I was very nervous, my eyes stared at the door of the patriarch's house for a moment, and I suddenly realized that something was wrong: "Liu Chuannan, shouldn't we wait here?" If you went to someone's house to steal something, would you walk through the door? ”

"I'll do whatever it takes." He doesn't care.

I was suddenly full of black lines, and there was no concept of being a thief in this girl's head, right? After all, he doesn't want to, and ordinary people can't see his true body, and it has an effect whether he walks through the door or not.

I pulled him to leave: "Let's go and wait in the back, they won't enter through the front door, it's too reckless." ”

"Don't toss around, with me, whether they go through the front door or the back, is there a difference?"

I think it's right, with his ability, if someone really comes, he can detect it as soon as possible.

I didn't speak again, Liu Chuannan looked up at the moon that had sunk, and suddenly said, "This is already the day of the Double Ninth Festival." ”

Double Ninth Festival, climb high and look far, return to the hometown to worship ancestors, is a festival of filial piety, and this day, but also happens to be the birthday of my brother and Mo Bai, Mo Bai was locked up in the health center, and now I don't know what the situation is, I hope he will be locked up for more time, and my brother's tablet is on my back, and as soon as the matter is over tomorrow, I will take him away and re-worship, and will never let him be wronged again.

Let's hope the turmoil will be a little less here tonight.

I glanced down at the time, three fifteen, it's supposed to come, it's supposed to come, right?

Just as I was thinking, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, and I immediately looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw the patriarch walking quickly towards his house.

"Isn't the patriarch supposed to be presiding over affairs in Jiaolongpo, why did he withdraw now?" I muttered quietly.

"I still can't let go of this." Yanagawa Minami said.

I thought about it, the patriarch is not over there, this task must be handed over to Wang Tiezhu, but this matter is very important to our village, the patriarch entrusted Wang Tiezhu out at this time, this is finally thinking about retirement?

If he could do that, I would have admired him.

Although our mountain village is not rich, but as a patriarch, whether it is income or status, it is higher than ordinary people, and there are not many such people who can let go of cultivating new people to succeed and give up money and rights.

The patriarch opened the courtyard door and entered, I hurriedly pulled Liu Chuannan's sleeve and asked him to take me in to see what was going on, but Liu Chuannan shook his head: "Don't, let's wait." ”

After a while, the patriarch came out again, looked left and right, locked the courtyard door, and then hurried in the direction of Jiaolongpo.

It was only two or three minutes before and after, which should be worried about the home, so I took a moment to come back and take a look, and made sure that the things were still there, so I went back with confidence.

Not long after the patriarch left, a black shadow flashed on the side of the courtyard wall, my heart tightened, and I just wanted to tell Liu Chuannan, but he had already covered my mouth: "I saw it, don't make a fuss." ”

I pulled his hand away and whispered, "Someone has entered the yard, we have to follow." ”

Liu Chuannan shook his head: "No, you be quiet, let me think again." ”

"What do you think? It's too late. "I'm in a hurry.

"Xiaocha, if you hide something, this thing is more important to you than your life, will you go to the place where you hide it from time to time and check it over and over again?"

Yanagawa Minami's question stopped me all of a sudden, if it was just hiding an ordinary thing, I would definitely be tempted to check it, but now it's something more important than life, and after hiding it, the reaction will be very different, right?

"I'd definitely love to check it out from time to time, but I'll refrain from it." I rationally analyzed, "There are two reasons, first, this thing is so important, when I hide it, I will definitely do a certain amount of protective measures, if I often go to check, it will be very troublesome, and even if I am not careful, I will be hurt by the trap I designed, and the gains outweigh the losses; Two, even if I can't help but look, I will definitely hide far away, after all, it is likely that my inspection will provide clues to the enemy. ”

"Yes, at such a critical moment, why does the patriarch have to take the time to come back and take such a look?" Yanagawa asked me rhetorically.

I unconsciously tightened my brows, and suddenly a thought flashed through my mind: "Do you say it will be a sound of the east and west?" ”

"It's not a very appropriate word, but it has the same meaning as I do." Liu Chuannan looked at me and said, "The patriarch came back this time to show the people lurking around the courtyard and attract them to take risks, but most of what was waiting for them was just a trap, and the real white snake skin should not be in the patriarch's house." ”

"Over there, there will be more than an hour to end at most, if you can entangle the enemy with a trap, then, when the patriarch comes back from his errands, the enemy doesn't know if he has escaped, let alone have the energy to think about where the white snake skin is really hidden."

What they are fighting for is actually the time from 3 a.m. to 5 a.m. for two hours.

"If it's not in the patriarch's house, where will it be?" I followed Liu Chuannan's train of thought and guessed, "Will it be Wang Tiezhu?" ”

The person that the patriarch values the most is Wang Tiezhu, and it is very likely that he will hide the white snake skin in Wang Tiezhu's house, after all, such an important thing must have enough trust value to be entrusted with confidence.

"Possibly, but not absolutely." Liu Chuannan further analyzed, "If Wang Tiezhu lives alone, it is very likely, but he is not alone, so he will have more concerns." ”

Wang Tiezhu's family also has two elders, both of whom are almost sixty years old, once Wang Tiezhu has an accident, the first thing to be affected is his parents, since the patriarch wants Wang Tiezhu to take over his class, he should not let him bear this risk.

"If it's not Wang Tiezhu's family, then where will it be hidden?" My mind was racing, but I couldn't think of a reason.

At this moment, another black shadow rushed into the patriarch's house, and I immediately held my breath.

If these two groups are together, the latter one goes in, probably because the front one has been in the yard for a long time, and he is afraid that something will happen, so he will go in and check, and there will definitely be movement after a while; If it weren't for one group, the two groups would soon fight for the sake of competition, and then the movement would be even greater.

But we waited a few minutes, and it was peaceful, unusually frightening.

"I don't know who came up with this idea, it's a man with brains, the white snake skin is not in the patriarch's house, let's go." Minami Yanagawa put his arm around my belt and walked away.

I was a little reluctant: "Why is there no movement at all?" ”

"Most of them are trapped in traps." Liu Chuannan sneered, "These two groups of people should not be from Daojiazhai, there are so many people who covet my body." ”

I rolled my eyes at him angrily: "You think this is a good thing?" Now they're fighting for the snakeskin you've shed, and at a certain point, they'll want more than that. ”

At that time, it is not impossible to eat Yanagawa Nansheng alive for the sake of this snake skin, it just depends on who has the ability.

I suddenly felt a little sorry for Yanagawa Minami.

Yanagawa Nan just walked forward with me, not caring about these at all: "You think my skin is so easy to pick?" The one in this world who can peel off my skin......"

As he spoke, he suddenly shut up and stopped suddenly, so that I couldn't get up, could it be that someone had ever picked his skin?

"I thought of a place." Yanagawa Minami suddenly made a big turn and walked towards the back with me, and I quickly asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"Ancestral Hall." Yanagawa Minami said firmly.

Before my mind could turn a corner, Yanagawa Minami had already flown to the periphery of the ancestral hall with me.

The door of the ancestral hall was closed, except for the two white lanterns hanging from the door, and it was pitch black all around.

"No one would have thought of this, right?" I asked myself, "After all, people are rarely allowed to come to a place like the ancestral hall without permission, and over time, although its existence is solemn, it is not always remembered by everyone."

If it hadn't been for Yanagawa Minami bringing it up, I wouldn't have thought about it at all.

"Why do you think it's an ancestral hall?" I asked in a whisper.

As soon as I finished asking, I saw what seemed to be a flash of light, on the window of the ear chamber on the right side of the ancestral hall, very quickly, but I was sure that I saw it.

Liu Chuannan obviously saw it, but he didn't hurry: "The bronze lock on the door of the ancestral hall is specially made, and ordinary people can't open it without a key, the doors and windows are intact, but someone has entered the ancestral hall, hehe, this thing can only be done by the people of Daojiazhai." ”

"The people of Daojiazhai? How can you be so sure? How did they get in? "My stomach was full of questions.

"From underground." Liu Chuannan stared at the ancestral hall, and did not relax for a moment, "The boss of the Daojiazhai, the ancestors made a living by inverted buckets, and now inverted buckets are no longer popular, but the craftsmanship must have been inherited, and I didn't come in vain this time." ”

As he spoke, he dragged me into the ancestral hall, and as soon as he took a step, another group of people rushed out and walked ahead of us.

Liu Chuannan immediately shrank back, I grabbed his hand, the palms were full of sweat, watching the group of people neatly unlocking, entering, and closing the door, a series of actions were done in one minute, I couldn't believe it, and said instead: "You see, the people in Daojiazhai are not so powerful, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people." ”

"There's a good show to watch now." Liu Chuannan's voice was faintly excited, "The wave of people who went in just now, don't you feel familiar?" ”

"Familiar?" I was puzzled, "Most of the people who come out at night are dressed in black, right?" The so-called night clothes? ”

"No, no, that guy just now didn't seem to be wearing tight-fitting night clothes, it seems...... It seems to be a cloak. ”

This made me think of the man in the cloak, the first man to ask me for something when he opened his mouth!

"I didn't expect that after such a long time, he still hasn't given up." I said angrily.

"He hasn't got what he wants yet, how can he go, and, he lost a lot last night, don't ask for something tonight, do you think he can balance his heart?"

"Last night? The person last night was sent by Mo Bai, but tonight he was wearing a cloak, and it should be the man in the cloak, and there was a ...... between them. You mean to say that the man in the cloak is in the same league as Mo Bai? ”

It took me a long time to react, but Liu Chuannan didn't give me a definite answer, but there was a sound of fighting in the ancestral hall.

Immediately afterwards, a bright light came out, and it seemed that the two sides were fighting fiercely, and the dark environment could no longer satisfy them.

Where there is light, there are shadows, and shadows and shadows are inextricably beaten.

I raised my chin and looked at Yanagawa Minami: "You say, when they desperately defeat each other and find the white snake skin, they find that the white snake skin is fake, what will be the reaction?" ”

"Crazy, hehe." Yanagawa Minami is in a particularly good mood.

But I began to worry: "No, Yanagawa Nan, at that time, they will be angry with the whole village, and the villagers will pay the price for this first, we can't let this happen." ”

"Xiaocha, you are just too kind, and you are still thinking about those villagers at this time, how can they think about you?" Yanagawa said and hugged me into his arms.

I myself feel so pitiful: "Isn't that how a doctor is a doctor?" When I meet my enemies on the operating table, 99% of the doctors will still choose to save people first, not to mention that I have a bad relationship with the villagers, but I have no hatred. ”

As he was talking, a torch suddenly lit up around him, and then, more than a dozen strong villagers surrounded the ancestral hall.
