Chapter Twenty-Five: Encounters at Night
After burying the ashes of the old monk in the center of the temple, the two of them packed up and set out on the road again.
"Gu Li, is this really for me?"
Looking at the relics in the palm of his little hand, Lin Sihan raised his head and looked at Gu Li beside him: "This thing is too important, what if I don't pay attention and lose it?" ”
"So you have to take good care of it." Gu Li glanced at her and said with a smile: "It was this relic you found, in the words of Buddhism, you have a relationship with it." ”
"If you really lose it, I don't think the master will blame you."
Seeing Gu Li's teasing eyes, Lin Sihan kicked him angrily: "You are only destined for a monk!" ”
"I'm a Taoist disciple, how can I have a relationship with Buddhism?" Looking at Lin Sihan innocently, Gu Li said after thinking about it seriously.
Facing the thick-skinned Gu Li, Lin Sihan was speechless and turned her head angrily, but after a while, she turned around and said, "I saw you vomiting a lot of blood last night, why don't you stay in the small temple for a few more days..."
"Originally, I was going to rest for a few days, but the spiritual power contained in the moonlight essence was too strong, which directly repaired my trauma, and I was full of spiritual power." Looking at the little girl with a smile, Gu Li didn't tell her that he couldn't absorb those moonlight essences at all, so he could only put them on the dantian and continue to condense them.
At present, his cultivation has reached the late stage of spiritual power liquid, and it takes him a few days to condense that moonlight essence, and if he cultivates for a few more days, he may be able to reach the peak of spiritual power liquid.
But after all, it's just a measure, and the control is estimated to be not enough, and you need to exercise well.
"Gu Li, I want to ask you something."
"What's the matter?"
Lin Sihan lowered his head slightly and said calmly: "Do you know how to get to the border of the Great Qian Empire?" ”
Gu Li, who was moving forward, stopped, turned his head and looked at her seriously, and said, "Don't you know the way?" ”
“... When did I say I knew the way? ”
"In the midst of joy, he actually forgot about it!
So, which direction to go?
...
Half a month later, Gu Li walked in the night woods with Lin Sihan on his back.
"Gu Li, why are you so stupid, you can't even tell the direction."
"You seem to be able to tell the way?"
Turning his head weakly, Gu Li would not admit that he was a bit of a road idiot!
"That Abel said that you can see the border fortress when you climb over that mountain, you can still go the wrong way..."Lin Sihan put his arms around Gu Li's neck expressionlessly, sighed like a little adult and said, "I really don't worry about letting you go to society." ”
Gu Li's face was dark, and he couldn't refute this little girl's words at all.
He admits that he did deviate a little, but he doesn't need to talk about the previous road, right?
Also, why did you say to me in that tone that you don't feel comfortable letting me go to society?
To tell you the truth, in my previous life, I went to work at the age of fourteen to raise my sister, and I don't know what society is like?
Seeing that Gu Li didn't speak, thinking that he was angry, Lin Sihan hugged Gu Li's neck slightly, and whispered, "Right..."
"Shhhh
Interrupting the little girl's words in a low voice, Gu Li's eyes seemed to pass through the layers of trees and saw the movement ahead.
"Looks like I've come across something interesting, don't scream later."
"Huh? Wait a minute, Gu Li..."
But Gu Li didn't pay attention to her at all, and quickly walked away with her on his back.
...
The night was silent, and Zhou Daring walked in the woods with his apprentice Chen Huan.
Behind them was a row of men dressed in large black cloths, strung with straw ropes every seven or eight feet.
As Chen Huan shook the bell, these people jumped and followed closely behind them.
But faintly, you can still see the yellow talisman raised by the tall blanket hat.
"The trail drives out the corpses, and the living avoid them!"
"Ouch."
Chen Huan, who was walking in front of him in boredom, suddenly received a blow to the head, and after snorting in pain, the master who looked back at him was glaring at him, and hurriedly said, "Master, what are you doing as an apprentice?" ”
"Be serious with me! It's not a good trip! Seeing that this stupid apprentice came to his senses, Zhou Daring glared at him fiercely, and then sighed and said, "Dog." ”
"Master! Please, old man! Don't call me by my nickname anymore! Hearing the word 'dog', Chen Huan's face suddenly turned black and he whispered.
"Tell me what's wrong with the name Chen Ergou? In our line of work, I don't know how much danger I can avoid with a dog word, but you want to take a bullshit name called Chen Huan! Looking at his stupid apprentice with hatred of iron and steel, if Zhou Daring hadn't known that they were on the way, he might have smoked his stupid apprentice.
"Mr. Teaching said, my word Huan represents the meaning of light, which is many times better than that Chen Ergou." Chen Huan's face was dark, and he said unhappily.
"The light of the fart! Do you see the light of day!? Pointing to the corpses behind him, Zhou Daring suddenly became angry, and when he was about to let Chen Huan know that his master was powerful, his ears suddenly moved, and he looked into the distance with a solemn expression.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Chen Huan was already about to be beaten while holding his head, intending to find that there was no imaginary pain, so he hurriedly raised his head and looked at Zhou Daring and said.
"There seems to be something in front, hurry up and take out the guy who is eating." After listening carefully to the movement in front of him, Zhou Daring's face became solemn and began to take out things from the cloth bag on his back.
Hearing Zhou Daring's words, Chen Huan was also a little flustered, and hurriedly took out a gossip mirror and a donkey leg from his cloth bag.
"Take these talismans, when something really happens, you will run in that direction, don't look back, keep running forward." After Zhou Daring stuffed a few talismans into Chen Huan's hand, he held a peachwood sword in his hand and looked around vigilantly.
"Master, you gave these to the apprentice, what should you do?" Chen Huan looked at the few talismans in his hand in a daze and said.
"Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, if it weren't for the fact that the master couldn't find other apprentices, he wouldn't have wanted you a long time ago." After glaring at Chen Huan, Zhou Daring pulled him behind him and said, "No matter what is in front of you, hurry up and ring the gong to remind you." ”
"Got it!" Chen Huan nodded hurriedly, and shouted after striking a gong: "The trail drives out the corpses, and the living avoid them!" ”
After saying this, Chen Huan began to look around vigilantly and pricked up his ears.
After a while, Chen Huan wanted to poke his master to ask about the situation, but when he saw him looking around with a solemn face, he didn't dare to disturb.
"I'm sorry to disturb you."
Gu Li walked out of the woods next to him with Lin Sihan on his back, and after looking at the corpses thoughtfully, he smiled.
"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, it's the juniors who are wrong, and I didn't recognize it as the seniors at the first time." The moment he saw Gu Li, Zhou Daring's eyes moved, and he hurriedly returned the salute and said, "I don't know why the seniors came out so late?" After finishing speaking, he looked at Gu Li and Lin Sihan with strange eyes.
Zhou Daring is also a cultivator, and his cultivation has reached the early stage of spiritual power and qi, but when facing Gu Li, he can't feel the depth of the other party.
Although the other party is tender and looks like a teenager, Zhou Daring will not underestimate the other party.
In the business of walking, so your eyesight must be good enough, otherwise if you accidentally receive a murderous corpse, it may be a disaster.
