Without Li Qian's guidance, Ling Xi and I were like two headless flies in the netherworld.

Although the two of us came here without any problems, the Netherworld is so big, and it doesn't seem to be so easy to find the Yellow Spring.

"Ling Xi, this place looks like I've just walked by......" I looked at the strange rocks around me, they seemed to be mocking us two road idiots.

"Damn it!" Ling Xi frowned and looked around, "This seems to be a formation, I obviously made a mark just now, and now I actually walked back again." ”

"Meow-" Xiao Hei was beside us, and he screamed helplessly. I regret it a little, why didn't I wait at home obediently, I had to pull Ling Xi and me out to find Li Qian. Since he didn't ask me to come with me, I guess I could handle it myself, but I always felt in my heart that I didn't feel at ease if I didn't follow him.

"Kalala", there seemed to be some noise around me, and I stopped: "Ling Xi, did you hear anything?" ”

He listened carefully: "I don't know if there is anything or not. This is the Netherworld, and evil spirits can appear at any time, so it's not surprising to make some noise. In short, be careful. ”

I nodded, and we both continued on the opposite path, only to hear another sound.

This time it wasn't just me, even Ling Xi felt that something was wrong, Xiao Hei exploded, and issued a very unfriendly warning sound towards a stone not far away.

As the noise intensified, the stone moved blatantly, and quickly combined into a human form, and at once a group stood around us.

"This ...... Also a formation? I tugged at the corners of my mouth, and I couldn't remember how many times I had encountered an unscientific being in the Netherworld.

Ling Xi's expression was solemn: "Regardless of whether these things are netherworld creatures or not, a battle is inevitable." ”

Xiao Hei had already screamed and pounced on it first, slapping it with a paw on the stone monster in front.

"Meow-" Blackie screamed and was punched aside by the stone monster.

"Blackie, are you alright?" Ling Xi was very distressed.

"They're Nether creatures, you have to be careful!" Xiao Hei shook his head and spoke, "Although the bodies of these guys are made of stones, each stone here carries a pair of parents' thoughts and obsessions for their children, and once they are hit by their attacks, they may fall into a kind of illusion. ”

As soon as we finished speaking, the group of stone men rushed towards us.

Ling Xi flew up and kicked directly on a stone man, kicking his head out of the air.

"It doesn't look very strong, does it?" After hitting the ground, he moved his ankle.

"Be careful!"

I unleashed the sprite and bit the stone man's flying back head directly, and at the same time, the yin qi turned into a heavy hammer and smashed it towards the body.

Thundered.

The stone man fell to the ground, and I was a little excited: "Killed!" ”

"No, it's not ...... yet," Ling Xi pointed to the lilac smoke that floated up, "That's the core of its power, right?" ”

As he spoke, the purple mist floated towards us, and although it was not pleasant to look at, we couldn't avoid it.

"What is this, it can't be blown away!" I shouted, feeling the sensations in my body slowly numb.

"Little July......" Ling Xi called me on the side, but his voice gradually weakened.

My mind was a little confused, and my eyelids were a little heavy.

Can't sleep!

I remind myself.

But in the blink of an eye, everything in front of me began to blur.

Something floated before my eyes, flashed around, passed before I could see clearly.

I reached out to grab it, but I missed.

"Something!" I shouted, opened my eyes suddenly, and came to a strange place.

It seemed to be a small temple, the incense was still quite strong, and there were many middle-aged men and women kneeling in it, and they didn't know what to ask for there.

Driven by curiosity, I walked in, and the smell of incense in the hall was a little choking, although when I was studying with the master, I would not often order a few sticks of incense, but I really couldn't stand the smell of this concentration.

The light inside is a little dim, and there are many statues of Bodhisattvas displayed on the shrines on both sides, and the one in the middle is the one I only glanced at and was stunned.

The golden body of the Bodhisattva is spotless, although I don't know which one it is, but looking at this one, it doesn't seem to be serious.

He was supposed to be kind with a pair of black-framed glasses on his face, and he looked serious, like an invigilator.

Sure enough, under the statue of the Bodhisattva was written: the word "academic qualifications".

No way!

Isn't this a bodhisattva who specifically blesses the entrance examination?

"Ask the gods and bodhisattvas to bless me and let my son be admitted to the B ...... this year"

"Kao Shen Bodhisattva, I have knelt here for a day, you must bless my daughter to graduate smoothly......"

"Examination of the Bodhisattva ......"

Sure enough, it is a test god bodhisattva.

The middle-aged people on the ground are all the parents of the candidates, everyone is pious, their mouths are constantly chanting, kowtowing to it again and again, and some of them stand up after praying, take out a bright red Grandpa Mao, and stuff it into the merit box next to it.

I moved my gaze to the side, and after seeing the other Bodhisattva statues clearly, I burst out with a foul word.

Computer Bodhisattva, Mathematics Bodhisattva, English Bodhisattva, Chemistry Bodhisattva, Geography Bodhisattva...... Bodhisattvas of almost all disciplines can be found from the shrine.

"Ah, by the way, I also have to pay a special visit to the Bodhisattva of the specialty." A middle-aged man got up from the futon, pulled the woman next to him and walked over, and bowed to the English Bodhisattva with a serious face, looking extremely reverent.

Is it stupid......

I twitched the corners of my mouth, why is this happening?

It seemed that they had taken a good start, and the other parents also stood up one after another, came to the different bodhisattva statues, and bowed vigorously and prostrately.

These guys are crazy, aren't they?

That's the only explanation I can think of. Otherwise, how could there be such a funny and ridiculous picture? A group of people worship the clay-born idols that are obviously pranks of modern people, and a fool would do that, right?

It was probably that purple mist that affected me.

I just want to get out of here quickly, I don't know what happened to Ling Xi, I shook my head and turned around to leave.

"Stop, who let you go?" The middle-aged man just now called out to me, "I asked you to come and worship the Bodhisattva together, what are you running?" ”

"I ......" before I spoke, the voice that didn't belong to me came out, and I probably understood, I was afraid that I had entered a memory that did not belong to me.

"Come here!" He grabbed my wrist and came to the English Bodhisattva, "Kneel down quickly, hurry up and bow down, lest you fail the English in the college entrance examination!" ”

"Dad, are you alright?" I stiffened my body and looked at him, "You can do this kind of stupid thing, this look is better than the mud doll pinched by the stinky boy next door to our house, and I can't see where it goes......"

"Shut up!"

The man slapped me in the face: "The Bodhisattva is still so unobtrusive in front of him, it seems that he was too used to you before!" ”

The woman next to me also hurriedly pulled me and pressed my head down fiercely: "Girl, apologize quickly." ”

I didn't agree, she kept nodding her head and bowing, chanting "Bodhisattva don't blame".

"I said, you people, don't you have normal brains?" I shook them off, and although my cheeks hurt hotly, they were still nothing compared to the feelings I felt for them.

"A group of mud dolls, you will worship as a god with a label, and send the money there, will the money be burned if there is too much?"

"Nonsense!" The middle-aged man rushed up angrily, grabbed my hair and pressed it down, "Apologize quickly!" ”

The parents next to me also gathered around, and some of them pointed at me.

"I'm afraid this kid is under too much pressure to study, and he's a little crazy, and he doesn't even believe in the Bodhisattva."

"That's it, that's it, I don't even believe in the god of the exam, can I be admitted to a good university in this life?"

"Hey, this kind of child, these two people have a hard life......"

I was pressed by them, and I bowed to the Bodhisattva several times, and grievances and humiliations occupied me.

The woman pulled me out of the hall and said earnestly: "Girl, don't blame your father, we are also for your good, if you can be like the son of Uncle Wang's family next door, a scholar, we don't have to worry about this, and we won't come here to worship." ”

"The problem is that it's useless for you to worship now, it's a waste of money......" I muttered quietly.

At this time, the man came out of it, just lost his temper, and his face was still flushed: "You are not angry, aren't you just worshiping a Bodhisattva, we don't want you to have to go to any prestigious school, but at least you can't even fail to study, right?" ”

"My mother and I have been with you for so many years, eating and drinking for you, just to let you get admitted to a decent university, find a better job, and then choose a good man to marry, why can't you understand our heart!"

Yes, I really can't understand their feelings, but as a parent, I hope that my children will be in the same mood. It's like my parents didn't see me for 18 years in order to protect me, which made me mistakenly think that they were ruthless, but they secretly cultivated a good brother like Ling Xi to take care of me instead of them.

"I know you're doing it for my good." I took a deep breath and looked at them, "I just think this kind of behavior is just too stupid. ”

"You say we're stupid?!" The man was a little angry, and his chest, which had been slightly calm, began to rise and fall violently again, "Who are we for?" Who are we really for? Isn't it for you! ”

The woman wanted to step forward to dissuade her, but she was pulled away by him: "They are all children you are used to, not only can't they study, but they can't even speak well!" ”

"You dissipate your ......"

"What kind of gas? She dared to scold her Lao Tzu, she was going to heaven! ”

Then, as if enchanted, he picked up a broom next to him and hit me on the head.

I didn't dodge, or rather, I didn't dodge at all, and let him hit me on the head with a stick.

The warm liquid flowed down, and the field of vision in the left eye was bright red.

"Oops, bleeding!"

"Murder!"

Someone shouted and the woman was frightened, but the man, like crazy, continued to pick up the stick and hit me one at a time.

“…… Month! Little July! ”

Ling Xi's voice came, and I woke up suddenly, and when I regained consciousness, the scene in front of me returned to the place just now.

The purple mist was fading away, and the other stone monsters were smashing their fists down on us.
