Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Shadow Army
Maybe because of the golden head just now, I was very sensitive to this golden thing, rubbed my eyes, and looked up at Mr. Liu's eyes.
He didn't look very surprised, and there was not much panic and fatigue on his face, but there was some inexplicable excitement, and he asked me to help with Zhao Yongkun and wake everyone else up.
Seeing that he didn't want to mention it, I didn't ask much, and together with Zhao Yongkun and the fat man, I woke up all the people who had fainted.
From a medical point of view, fainting is a mechanism for the human body to protect itself. I thought it would be a bit of a hassle to wake them up, but who knew that just a tap on everyone would wake up in a coma. But when they woke up, they reacted a little strangely, they all looked around, and then asked in surprise, "Hey, how did we get to the shore?" ”
The fat man and I looked at each other in amazement, and after asking carefully, I realized that all the people who had fainted had forgotten the experience of going ashore at the end, and only remembered the black stiffness that we encountered on the way, and then they couldn't remember it at all.
I couldn't figure out why, but I always thought it had something to do with the huge golden head.
Could it be that the head has the ability to make people lose their own memory?
I'm a little incredulous, you know, those people just glanced at the golden head, if you can lose your memory at a glance, what a terrifying existence is the golden head?
A few of us also had a tacit understanding that we didn't mention the matter of the golden head, and after letting Tang Mingyang and Fan Zhichao's people rest for a while, Mr. Liu arranged for them to set up a tent and prepare to set up camp.
The rest of us lit a bonfire and warmed up around the fire.
Although it was summer, the temperature difference between day and night in the mountains was large, and almost everyone was wet when crossing the river, and I was already feeling a chill.
Surrounding the fire, Zhao Yongkun and I were still a little nervous at first, worried that there would be ghost activity near the river, but after waiting for a long time, there was nothing abnormal, and slowly relaxed. Mr. Liu and Zhao Yongkun were whispering something, and after Bai Ling and the fat man had a frightening scene just now, their relationship had obviously improved a lot, and they didn't quarrel anymore, they got together and whispered, and it looked like they had completely hooked up.
I was the only one left, holding a bottle of wine in my hand, sipping the wine to ward off the cold, and my mind kept thinking about the huge golden head just now.
I don't know why, but looking at the golden skull at that time, I always think of the red shadow in my mind.
The golden head is huge, while the red shadow is slender; The golden head had all sorts of strange visions on its face, and the face of the red shadow I had never seen at all. But these two things, which have no intersection at all, keep running through my mind at this time, and I can't figure out why.
Perhaps thinking of the red shadow, I subconsciously held the jade ring around my neck. Just as I grabbed the jade ring, the voice of the pupil suddenly sounded in my head, "Brother." ”
I was stunned, the pupil didn't come out of the jade ring, how could she talk to me directly?
Before I could think clearly, Hitomi said again, "Little Snake said that he has something to tell you, there are too many people here, brother, can you go to a remote place and let Little Snake come out and talk to you?" ”
The snake spirit is looking for me? This is unusual, although the snake spirit uncle is like a pug every day by the pupil, but to me that is never pretended, as long as the pupil does not appear, he will always be an uncle, his eyes only look at the sky, even let him come out to save me in a crisis, is through the pupil forced him to agree, why did he suddenly take the initiative to find me at this time?
I put down the wine bottle, excused myself for convenience, left the crowd, came to the forest in the distance, stood and waited for a while, and after not finding anyone coming, I took out the jade ring and compass, and did not hurry to let the snake spirit come out, and called the pupil out first.
After carefully asking Hitomi, I found out that Hitomi had practiced a secret technique in the "Channeling Method", so that it could not appear from the jade ring, but communicate with me directly, which was done through a method of soul contract. I was also intrigued and asked Hitomi if I could communicate directly with her in this situation.
Hitomi said that with my current state, I couldn't understand the things of the soul origin at all, so I could only communicate unilaterally, which made me discouraged.
Speaking of which, Hitomi also followed me before he began to practice the "Psychic Method", who knew that he had now comprehended the origin of the soul. Although Hitomi itself is a yin soul, and it is easier to comprehend the origin of the soul than a human feng shui master, it is also inexplicably able to feel this step in this short period of time, which also makes me feel inexplicably like a wastewood.
But in the end, Hitomi reassured me, saying that as long as she studied this secret technique in depth, she would be able to communicate her three souls with my soul, and I would be able to communicate with her through this method at that time.
I'm even more embarrassed to say this, it seems that Hitomi doesn't have confidence in me at all. But I can't say anything, comprehending the origin of the soul, that's at least something that can only be considered after becoming a heavenly master, not only Hitomi has no confidence in me, but I also have no confidence in myself.
After talking to Hitomi about this, I called the snake spirit out of the compass again.
As soon as he appeared, the snake spirit looked groveling and flattering, came to my side, and called me a "brother", which made my scalp numb.
I resisted the urge to kick him and let him fart quickly.
The snake spirit then asked me in a very polite and humble tone if I was going to the canyon in front of me tomorrow.
After I nodded, the snake spirit asked me again if I could take him to a place tomorrow when I got to that canyon.
I was stunned for a moment and asked the snake spirit what was going on, if he had been here in his lifetime.
The snake spirit's huge head immediately shook, saying that he hadn't been here.
Isn't this a joke, I haven't been here, and I went out of my way to contact Hitomi and call me out to say this?
Without saying a word, I was about to call Hitomi to beat him, but the snake spirit was in a hurry, so he told me the reason, and opened his mouth to say, "I haven't been here, but today I feel the breath of a friend, and it's in that canyon." ”
Friend?
I was stunned for a moment, and the snake spirit squirmed and said, "Although we are not human beings who collect the spirits of all things, we also have souls and souls, and know how to reproduce...... The breath in this canyon is the breath of a concubine I used to have, and after so many years, I didn't expect to meet it here. ”
The snake spirit's statement opened my eyes, the snake is inherently lewd, plus he is still a thousand-year-old snake charm, and he has reached the stage of transformation before his death, with this kind of past, it is not impossible to think about it.
It's just that looking at the sneaky appearance of the snake spirit, I always feel that he didn't tell me something, and he wants to carry out some kind of little conspiracy behind my back.
But with Hitomi here, no matter what little conspiracy he wants to do, when the time comes, call Hitomi out to clean him up, and I guess there will be no more careful thoughts.
I nodded, and agreed to his request, asking him to contact me through Hitomi after he got to the specific place in the canyon tomorrow.
When I returned to the camp, several large bonfires had been extinguished, everyone went back to sleep in the tents, only two of Fan Zhichao and the people left behind were changing shifts to keep vigil, I said hello and went back to the single tent they reserved for me.
In the middle of the night, I heard a deep and esoteric voice, which sounded like some kind of Buddhist scripture, but it was different, and there was an indescribable feeling, as if it was not human language.
Quietly opened the tent a gap, I tilted my ears sideways, and naturally distinguished, it seemed to be a sound from Mr. Liu's tent.
After a day of hard work, Mr. Liu didn't sleep at this time, and he was actually reading something, which was really weird.
During this trip to Shennongjia, Mr. Liu has been hiding something, which makes me very unable to see through. At first, I didn't worry too much, but I had just set off and experienced so many strange and dangerous things, and by now, I was already a little uneasy.
However, this is not the time to retreat, so I can only be more careful in the next trip.
I didn't say anything all night, and early the next morning, I woke up from the cold, and when I slept in the middle of the night, there were embers of the campfire, and I didn't feel cold, and by the morning, the temperature in the mountains was estimated to have dropped to less than 10 degrees, and I still felt a little cold wrapped in a sleeping bag in a tent.
When I walked out of the tent, I found that everyone had already gotten up, and Bai Ling was arranging for the veterans to make breakfast, looking quite refreshed, probably having walked out of the fear of last night.
The fat guy followed Bai Ling stupidly, looking like a concubine and a concubine, and it seemed that he was making rapid progress.
After the meal, Mr. Liu energetically called on everyone to continue on the road.
I deliberately stared at Mr. Liu for a long time, and found that his face was ruddy, and his spirit was good, I really couldn't understand, I was still talking in the tent in the middle of the night last night, and I guess I didn't necessarily sleep all night, where did I get such a full spirit today.
Perhaps after experiencing those terrible incidents last night, everyone was bolder, and when they marched towards the so-called "Guillotine Gorge" of Lao Zheng, no one raised any objections at all.
Along the way, my spirit is also more excited, this time I promised Mr. Liu to come over, mainly thinking about walking more mountains and rivers, to find a good feng shui dragon vein, and so far, this canyon, is the best feng shui I have seen, if you want to find traces of the dragon vein, this canyon is the most likely place, I can't help but be in good spirits.
But as I got closer and closer to the canyon, my happy mood disappeared little by little, and I felt very confused in my heart.
The feng shui of this canyon is excellent, and it is obvious where the Tibetan wind gathers qi, and the yin and yang qi should be very balanced. But as I got closer, I found that the yin qi in the canyon was extremely heavy, and the further I went, the colder I felt.
I took a look at the fat man and Zhao Yongkun, and the faces of the two of them couldn't see anywhere, but we didn't speak rashly, compared to the river full of corpses yesterday, this canyon was just a little heavier, and it was really not a big deal.
When I finally walked into the canyon, I felt even more wrong, the yin qi here was so thick that it made people feel cold all over the body, and even when the red shadow touched me, I didn't feel so cold.
At this moment, there was a turning point in front of the valley, and before I could get to the place, I heard Fan Zhichao, who was walking in the front and had just turned over, let out an exclamation, but the sound was only halfway through, and it stopped again, which sounded very weird.
We all looked stunned, and hurriedly followed, and when we turned the corner and saw the scene in front of us, everyone had round eyes and couldn't help but scream.
In the wide and long valley, a neat stream of people lined up, slowly moving forward, like an army, but among them there were old and young, all of them looked light, with empty expressions on their faces, and not even a sound came out of the process.
These are not people, but an army of ghosts!
Hearing the sound of us intruding, all the Yin Spirits stopped at the same time, turned their heads in unison, and the countless empty eyes stared at us at the same time, making everyone feel cold......
