Chapter 35: Take You Home
Wang Xiaobai crawled out of the ice exhausted, Wang Laodao quietly watched coldly on the sidelines, without the slightest intention of stretching out his hand, Wang Xiaobai dragged the baggage belt and took a few deep breaths, raised his spirit, and tried his best to drag the female corpse in the river water, the process was very smooth, the female corpse was dragged out of the water, revealing her head, Wang Xiaobai wrapped the baggage belt around her arm, and dragged the female corpse out of the river little by little, and gently put it aside, after doing this, I felt that the strength on my body was empty all of a sudden, and I turned over and lay on the cold ice, tired and a little foggy.
"It's not early, I piled some firewood across the river and overtook her!"
Wang Laodao's voice still didn't have any feelings, Wang Xiaobai hummed, gasped a few breaths, got up with a strong beating, put on his clothes first, then picked up the female corpse, put it on his back, and walked towards the other side of the river, the female corpse was silent, but the water drops were dripping on the surface of the river, making a slight sound, every sound was like a silent cry, for some reason, Wang Xiaobai felt that the female corpse was particularly heavy, and it was quite difficult to carry it, and every time she took a step forward, it would be heavier.
Not only did she feel Shen, Wang Xiaobai could also feel the sadness and helplessness exuded by the female corpse, and even struggled a little, she seemed to be worried and afraid...... The depressed Wang Xiaobai was out of breath, the river in early spring was already very thin, the weight of the female corpse, plus Wang Xiaobai's weight, every time he took a step forward, the ice under his feet would click, click...... Thrilling sounds.
"Shufen, don't be afraid, I'll take you home!" Wang Xiaobai shouted in his heart, under his shout, every time I take you home, you can lift your footsteps, but if you don't shout such a sentence in your heart, the female corpse will be like Mount Tai pressing Wang Xiaobai's head and can't lift it, Wang Xiaobai can only keep shouting in his heart: "Shufen, don't be afraid!" I'll take you home......"
Step by step is difficult to move forward, every step is extremely heavy, tossing for so long, Wang Xiaobai's physical strength has been consumed to the limit, thinking that it will be much easier to bring the female corpse from the river, but I didn't expect that it will be more difficult to get to the river, Wang Xiaobai didn't dare to put down the female corpse, let alone rest, once he put it down, he didn't know if he still had the strength to pick up the female corpse again, the closer to the river bank on the other side, Wang Xiaobai felt that the female corpse behind him was heavier.
It was a particularly weird heaviness, it seemed to be pressed on the muscles and bones, not only soft but also with a piercing pain, Wang Xiaobai insisted on moving forward, sweat beads dripping down, just put on the clothes not long ago, he was already soaked, every step seemed to be his last step.
Xiao Baijue felt that he couldn't hold on anymore, but he gave up like this? More than half a year of practice, soaking in the icy river water every day, fighting to the death, Shufen's despair...... Wang Xiaobai still persevered, step by step closer and closer to the shore, Wang Laodao on the other side of the river has already raised a bonfire, there are three yellow talismans on the ground, front, left, right, only the back is open, waiting for Wang Xiaobai's arrival, the strange thing is that when Wang Xiaobai's foot stepped on the opposite bank, the female corpse behind him suddenly became lighter.
Wang Xiaobai walked into the rune array with the female corpse on his back, he was already tired and almost collapsed, and wanted to put the female corpse off his back, but found that the female corpse seemed to be glued to his back, and he couldn't move at all, Wang Laodao watched outside the rune array, waiting for Wang Xiaobai to solve it by himself, Wang Xiaobai took a few deep breaths, and said softly: "Shufen, don't be afraid, I'll take you home!" ”
After Wang Xiaobai said this, Wang Laodao's calm old face suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly at Wang Xiaobai: "What you promised her was to take her home?" ”
After Wang Xiaobai finished saying to take her home, the female corpse became lighter and rolled from Wang Xiaobai's body to the ground, Wang Laodao shouted very loudly, Wang Xiaobai was startled, turned to look at Wang Laodao, and asked, "Yes, Master, what's wrong?" ”
Wang Laodao's face became very strange, he was silent, and suddenly sighed and said: "It's nothing, this is your fate, you will know in the future, but Xiaobai, you remember, the things of ghosts and gods are unpredictable, remember not to promise easily, if you promise, you must do it, it's okay, continue to do your thing......"
Wang Laodao said unclearly, not clearly, Wang Xiaobai didn't understand, felt a little wronged, the female corpse was pitiful, not to mention, it was too powerful in the water, just the boundless long black hair, and the dark resentment breath, could drive people crazy, scared to death, tortured to death, if it weren't for Wang Xiaobai's preparation, after several twists and turns, he found a way to deal with the female corpse, it is estimated that it is still soaking in the water, and the female corpse will mutate in three days and become a monster in Wang Laodao's mouth.
It is not easy to carry the female corpse from the bottom of the river and to the shore, it is really not easy, not only is it not easy, the last trace of strength Wang Xiaobai has been exhausted, don't look at it now is standing, but his legs are as soft as noodles.
If he hadn't told the female corpse in his heart to take her home, Wang Xiaobai believed that he would never easily carry the female corpse out, and he didn't know how many twists and turns it would take, Wang Laodao just watched from the side, not helping at all, not pointing and pointing, and the words were still so unclear.
Wang Xiaobai looked at the female corpse lying on the ground, drenched, still as good as life, the water droplets next to the corners of her eyes kept flowing down her cheeks, I don't know if it was water or tears, her face was sad, Wang Xiaobai sighed, knowing that the resentment on her body was too heavy, and they were all gathered on the corpse, otherwise it would not have changed for a hundred years, such a corpse was buried in the soil, the yin qi was too heavy, I don't know what will happen, it can only be burned.
Wang Xiaobai sat weakly on the ground, gasping for breath, resting for a while, feeling a little stronger, before going to help the female corpse, but the female corpse suddenly became heavy again, it seemed to resist the flames very much, and the water traces on her body continued to spread outward, and the surrounding land had been wet.
Wang Xiaobai didn't know what to do, turned his head and looked at Wang Laodao, Wang Laodao was expressionless, he didn't want to deal with Wang Xiaobai, it can be seen that his face was pale, a little distressed, and he said helplessly: "Burn incense and pray!" ”
"Thank you, Master!" Wang Xiaobai answered, and went directly to Wang Laodao's backpack, sure enough, there was incense, Wang Xiaobai lit incense in front of the female corpse, put his hands together and prayed: "Shufen, I know your grievances and resentments, but those have passed, and even almost a hundred years have passed, the people you resented back then, the people you were worried about are no longer in the world, don't be nostalgic for this world that no longer belongs to you, let go of the past, reincarnate as a man, Shufen, don't be afraid, you have already arrived on the other side, I have taken you home......"
Wang Xiaobai chattered, the female corpse twitched slightly, and when the incense was burned, Wang Xiaobai went to help the female corpse, and easily helped her up, helped her to the side of the fire, and gently lowered it towards the flames......
At this time, Wang Laodao also became serious, and softly recited the Taoist transcendent scriptures: "At that time, save the suffering Tianzun, and fill the ten realms." Often with the power of the gods, to save all sentient beings, to get away from the lost, sentient beings are unconscious, such as blind to see the sun and the moon, I am too indifferent, pull out the boundless collar, Qingyun opens the door of life, auspicious smoke plugs the dead household, the beginning of the Xuanyuan, with the auspicious sense, save all sins, all dooms......"
Wang Laodao's voice reciting the scriptures is very light, but the words are very clear, very soft, revealing a sense of compassion, in the sound of the scriptures, the heavens and the earth seem to have reacted, the gusts of wind blow, blowing the flames are also very gentle, Wang Xiaobai carefully put the female corpse on the fire, Wang Laodao threw out a spirit rune, and the flame turned cyan.
The cyan flame instantly wrapped the entire corpse of the female corpse, although the female corpse was drenched, but it could not stop the burning of the flame at all, under the cyan flame, the female corpse first emitted black smoke, steaming upward, straight to the sky, but was gently blown away by the wind, this process lasted about ten minutes, the female corpse was not emitting black gas, turned white, the body was almost non-existent, the white smoke did not rush straight to the sky, it looked very soft, and the smoke was steaming.
In the steaming smoke, Wang Xiaobai saw Shufen's shadow appear, she became very clean, neat, although she was still wearing that dress, she looked like a living person, she looked at Wang Xiaobai quietly, and then made a salute, it was the kind of woman in the past, squatted down a little, and then stacked her hands, put them on the right side, and bowed her head gently.
A breeze blew, the image dissipated, the flames became smaller and smaller, and only a pile of ashes remained on the ground, Wang Xiaobai bowed to the ashes with his hands folded, very embarrassed, still very shocked in his heart, he never thought that it was not easy for people to live.
His current life seems to be nothing remarkable, and even a little bland and tasteless, but how many people can't pursue it? Wang Xiaobai felt that he was a little vicissitudes, he suppressed his sad emotions, turned his head and asked Wang Laodao, "Master, have I passed the second level?" ”
"Well, you passed the second level, Xiaobai, the female corpse didn't do evil, she was carried out by you, she was overtaken by the two of us, she has no evil deeds, and she has suffered so much, she will be reincarnated soon, you have done a good job in this matter, the second level has passed, rest and rest, and continue to come to Huangxian Temple tomorrow to find me!"
A few simple words, even if it is praise, after packing up the things Wang Laodao is about to leave, Wang Xiaobai smiled bitterly: "Master, can't you say a few more words to me?" Why are you always so cool, by the way, when will I pass the third level? ”
Wang Xiaobai passed the second level, thinking about striking while the iron was hot, and simply passed the third level, but Wang Laodao snorted coldly and said, "Do you think you are amazing?" You are still far away, I have taught you a lot of things, first practice all of these, and understand them all, you can really stand alone, in order to pass the third level, the third level is the real test, Xiaobai, come on, continue to come to Huangxian Temple tomorrow to find me......"
Wang Laodao packed up his things and left, Wang Xiaobai looked at his back, smiled bitterly, and also packed his things and went back to the dormitory......
