Chapter 23: An Uncomfortable Pattern
Speaking of the red-clothed ghost, I suddenly thought of the child I had met at the baby tower at the end.
The kid was dressed in red, and after a slight pause, I told my brother about it.
"Are you sure?" In the senior brother's eyes, he thought carefully for a long time with a hint of solemnity before he continued: "If this is really the case, then the matter will be troublesome. ”
"Isn't it amazing?" I looked at my brother a little strangely and asked.
The senior brother nodded slightly: "If I go all out, I'm afraid I won't be the opponent of the red-clothed ghost." But shouldn't it? ”
"What's wrong?" I was even more confused.
"If it's really a red-clothed ghost, then how can you let you go safely if your anger hasn't subsided?" There was a coldness in the senior brother's eyes: "You tell me about the things you encountered during that time period, tell me 1510, don't hide anything!" ”
After listening to my brother's words, I sorted out my thoughts a little.
started from the discovery of the baby tower by himself, and ended with the mirror ghost of Uncle Wang's house.
No matter how big or small, everything is said.
After finishing speaking, the senior brother's brows furrowed even tighter: "I understand, the baby in red at the beginning should have been suppressed for many years, so there is not much ability to make waves at all, if this is really the case, then we have to hurry up, once it is completely recovered, it will be really late!" ”
"What? I'm going too? ”
I looked at the senior brother in front of me a little strangely, and shivered.
"I don't know anything about the situation there, you're from the village, and you know a little more than you do, both in terms of road conditions and information. I don't have any other credible people on the mountain, junior brother, you can accompany me on a trip! Senior Brother looked at me very sincerely.
I subconsciously took a step back: "Even you are not the opponent of the baby in red, you let me go?" ”
"It's only been a month now, and even if he recovers, he shouldn't be able to get back to his strongest form, so we still have some chances. I will ask the master to give him some magic talismans, plus the Heavenly Master Seal in your hand, we went to collect this thing, there shouldn't be any big problem!" Senior brother looked at me and said lightly.
I felt some scalp tingling, and I always felt that this senior brother was not so reliable in speaking.
But looking at his eloquent eyes, I still nodded subconsciously.
On this mountain, he is afraid that there is really no other person available. In addition, the terrain in the village is relatively complicated, and he said that if he goes alone, if something really happens, it will be the loss of the entire Longhu Mountain.
After receiving my affirmative answer, the senior brother no longer had any hesitation and quickly took me to ask the master!
After the master knew the news, he also attached great importance to it: "Yuanyu, this time the matter is important, you must be careful." Chen Rong, you were born in that village since you were a child, and you are very familiar with it, and you have to take care of your senior brother when you go out this time, understand? ”
"Uh, yes!" I was a little stunned, who took care of whom!
"Yuanyu, you go out first, I have something to tell your junior brother!" The master nodded slightly.
"Yes!" Zhang Yuanyu didn't hesitate and turned to leave.
In the main hall, only me and the master were left. The master glanced at me, and then continued: "You are very close to Sun Daoyuan? ”
"Not either." I scratched my head and was silent for a moment before I continued: "It's just that I listen to him preach every day, and I always feel that there is a different breath in his body, and under his preaching, my eating method has also improved a lot." ”
"Hmm!"
The master nodded slightly, then put a stick of incense on Tianzun, sighed and said, "He is also a poor man, but he took a few wrong steps when he was young!" That's why it came to an end today. ”
I have some wonders, master, why are you suddenly saying these things at this time.
"Do you know why I'm asking you to take care of your senior brother?" The master turned around and asked with a smile.
I shook my head, I really don't know.
The master continued: "Because your senior brother is very similar to your uncle!" Both of them are very pure people I have seen, and they are all Taoists as far as the eye can see, and they don't think about other things, they don't think about other things. Therefore, it is a good thing and a bad thing to say that the mind will be more upright! ”
"What do you mean?" I still don't quite understand.
"Far Desire is a child I have taken in since I was a child, and his mind is pure, but because of this, he is more likely to be seduced by others. I've always been devoted to cultivating, and I don't know much about human nature. Although it looks strong, its weaknesses are pure. So you have to look after him, I'm more worried about him than about you! The master laughed, and then said, "I know that you may feel a little uncomfortable listening to this, but you have grown up in the mortal world since you were a child, and your mind is more delicate, and you can understand many things. Coupled with the Heavenly Master Seal in your hand, as well as your life, even if the red-clothed ghost wants your life, it is not an easy thing! But if your brother is deceived and goes down the wrong path. That's another catastrophe! ”
Hearing this, I seem to understand a little.
Scratching his head, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the master: "Are you saying that I have a lot of eyes?" ”
"It's better to have more eyes!" The master patted me on the shoulder, laughed, and said, "How is the Twenty-Four Grades of Dharma Fu I taught you?" ”
"I've been able to draw about 30%!" I paused for a moment, and then said, "If it's in good shape, it's not a big problem if it's forty percent similar. ”
After listening to this, the master nodded approvingly: "Not bad, not bad!" ”
As he spoke, he took out a stack of talismans from his robe: "If you want to know how to draw talismans, you must first learn to use them. These twenty-four talismans were drawn by me myself, and they are powerful, so there shouldn't be much of a problem if you want to kill the red-clothed ghosts! You have to understand it carefully in the process of using it, understand? ”
My eyes widened and I took the spell.
This is the benefit of understanding the great sect. As soon as I made a move, there were twenty-four magic runes, and people like me had the ability to fight against the red-clothed ghosts.
In an instant, I felt as if I had become a rich second generation, and hurriedly stuffed the twenty-four magic talismans into my arms, and laughed happily: "Master, don't worry, it's absolutely no problem!" ”
"Hey!"
After listening to this, the master sighed slightly: "If it was back then, I could be as exquisite as you." Your uncle, maybe you won't go down that road! ”
After saying that, the master gently waved his hand and asked me to leave.
I knew that he seemed to be in a bad mood, so I didn't say anything more and hurriedly retreated.
When I got out of the main hall, I found my senior brother standing there waiting. The attitude is respectful and there are no complaints.
"Senior brother, let's go!" I looked at Zhang Yuanyu, paused for a moment and said.
The senior brother turned his head: "Okay." ”
After that, we simply packed our bags and left in a hurry. Along the way, I also understood what the master said. Sometimes I make a joke, and my brother can take it seriously.
Such a person is more pure, but if he really goes the wrong way, it will be even more terrifying.
Because they are clinging to the beliefs in their hearts, they are wrong and pure.
I have been away from the village for more than a month, and my mind is somewhat nervous, but I have grown a lot in this month. When I came back again, I always felt that something was not quite right. Also, the father at that time should have been aware of the state of the baby in red, so why didn't he choose to kill that thing? Is it not strong enough? Or how?
I've thought about it for a long time, but I can't come up with a reason.
I just don't think about it so much.
"Senior brother, look, then you are sarcoma mountain!" As we stood in front of Panlongjing, I pointed to the bare sarcoma on the hill and whispered, "We finally found out that the baby in red was there!" It's just that then it disappeared completely! ”
"Something isn't right!"
Senior Brother glanced at the overall pattern, and then continued: "The pattern of the whole village is a bit strange. ”
"What do you mean?" Hearing this, I was even more strange.
The pattern in the village has been fixed for a long time, not to mention that nothing major has happened in a long time. Grandpa has lived here for so many years and hasn't seen it, and my father has also stayed here for a while, and he still hasn't seen it.
Why did Zhang Yuanyu see that something was wrong as soon as he came?
"I can't tell, but this pattern is really weird!"
Zhang Yuanyu's brows furrowed: "It doesn't seem like there's any problem, but I can feel the danger somewhat." It's very strange, I have felt the danger brought to me by people, ghosts, spirits, and even the danger brought to me by Gu worms, but the danger brought to me by a pattern has never appeared! ”
"Could it be that you are too tired from the journey, and you have a delusion?" I looked at my senior brother and asked subconsciously.
"Possibly!"
Zhang Yuanyu let out a long breath and closed his eyes gently, as if he wanted to regain his spirits.
"Now that we're here, let's go back to the house and rest, it's getting late. Now there is no point in going up the mountain! I whispered to my brother.
The senior brother nodded.
When we returned to the house, my father had already left.
I don't know exactly where I went, but the house was deserted, and a thin layer of ash had accumulated. Thinking that after he came down from Longhu Mountain, he shouldn't have returned here, did he find his way to the underworld? Or is there something else?
