Chapter 105: Phantom Array
My inference is also well-founded, the villagers said that Chongyang Mountain was uninhabited, three years ago, the village had an accident, and the monk Chiba lived in the mountain after the accident, and Ma Xiaoling said that the medicine king was in Chongyang Mountain, so I naturally thought of the medicine king.
Xiuya and Lingling disagreed with my judgment, they thought that the Medicine King was a superior and would never do anything to control cats and dogs.
We walked towards the canyon, most of the plants here are cyan vines that grow from the stinky ditch, and there are some gray plants, the ground under the feet is a little soft, and even a pit is stepped on in some places, if it is very dangerous to walk here at night, if you mistakenly enter the puddle it is very troublesome, or even entangled in vines, you will drown in the puddle.
Xiuya said, "This canyon is a filthy place, the feng shui here is blocked on all sides, the yin and yang qi is turbid, the geology is very poor, the sewage cannot be discharged, and the geology of the whole mountain range is not good." I'm afraid it's all here. ”
I was puzzled, "Chongyang Mountain is so big, this canyon is very small, one canyon is so likely to affect the entire mountain range?" ”
Xiuya pointed to the distance and said, "Look at the color of the mountains around you, damp and gloomy. The plants that grow are dark blue, and there is a musty rancid smell everywhere, and from the perspective of feng shui, the ground is concave and facing the outer mountain, and the convex surface is dominant, which is ruthless and fierce. ”
"The canyon walls are bare, and the situation is scattered and withered. The pulse has stopped, the clear water has no tendency to divide and merge, the sewage gathers in the heart of the hall, the acupuncture field is missing and uneven, it is the evil hole, and this area is the place of great evil. ”
I looked at each other and couldn't understand at all, Han Dongzhu said, "Master, can you say something that we can understand?" ”
Xiuya said, "To put it in layman's terms, it is a rat that harms a pot of rice." ”
This one...... It's too popular.
We quickly found the footprints of the cat and the dog and chased them down.
"There are two people over there!" Lingling suddenly pointed in a direction.
"Anyone?" We looked in the direction of Lingling's finger, it was already evening, there was stench and fog everywhere, and we could only see fifty or sixty meters in front of us, and Xiuya and Han Dongzhu and I didn't see anyone.
Xiuya asked, "Lingling, what did you see?" ”
"A man and a woman." Lingling said, "My eyesight is stronger than yours, and I can't see it very clearly from a distance, and the woman's back is ...... Some are familiar, as if we are from Shangnan Village. ”
"How can the women of Shangnan Village come here like this?" I'm very curious if Lingling is mistaken.
Lingling said, "You know this woman too. ”
"I know?" When I was investigating the case in Shangnan Village, I met a few women, but they were all villagers, how could they come here?
I said, "Don't sell it, okay, who is it?" ”
"What a big idiot." Ling Ling said, "I look at that back, it's Jing Min." ”
I was stunned for a moment, "Jing Min? ”
After the case in Shangnan Village ended, Jing Min and Hui Yafei's sister Hui Yajuan have not been arrested, Ling Ling is very sure that it is Jing Min who sees it, how could she come here?
The conspiracy of Fang Shenpo and others can be said to be destroyed by me and my father, Jing Min hates me to the core, last time we investigated the case in Yang Village, Jing Min sent Hui Yafei brothers and sisters to assassinate me, this time, did Jing Min come at me?
Probably not, she went to the mountains.
I said, "Since Jing Min is here, I must catch her and not let her do evil again." ”
"There's no hurry." Xiuya said, "You and Han Dongzhu are injured, Lingling can't use any power now, the matter of Shangnan Village, my master told me, it was Fang Shenpo and Jing Min who have been secretly planning, Jing Min, this woman is scheming, and finally escaped, she came here, there must be something, and the person who was with her didn't know who it was." ”
"Since we have found Jing Min and she has not discovered us, we will find an opportunity to deal with her."
What Xiuya said also makes sense, what happened when Jing Min came to the mountain? Could it be that she has something to do with the cat child?
Xiuya took out the map and asked Han Dongzhu, "Is this the only way to go to the deep mountains?" ”
"Yes." Han Dongzhu said, "This is the only place where you can go deep into the mountains, and this is the only way to go through the canyon." It is a passage more than 200 meters long, after passing, there is a large dead land, there is no grass on that side, walk east for about 40 minutes, you can go out, and then there is a forest. ”
"Through the forest, it's deep in the mountains."
Han Dongzhu's face has improved a lot, but he is slightly pale, and he is alive and well, and he no longer looks like he is sick.
More than forty minutes later, we have crossed the canyon, and in front of us is a road more than two meters wide, and the road is sandwiched between the mountains on both sides, as if a giant axe has split the mountain in half.
At this moment, it was dark, and night was about to come.
This road is more than 200 meters, we walked more than ten meters, the light in the passage is getting darker and darker, both sides are blocked by mountains, we took out a flashlight, Han Dongzhu is very familiar with this place, leading the way in the front.
After walking for a while, Xiuya took out the compass, and the pointer on the compass turned rapidly.
"There is a lot of yin here, you look around, there is not a single plant, there must have been something terrible happening here."
The road was indeed bare, and there was nothing green to be seen on the mountain walls on either side.
Han Dongzhu said, "After you get out of here, it will be a dead place." I heard from the old people in the village that in ancient times, that area was a battlefield, and hundreds of thousands of dead souls died there. So it became a dead land. ”
There was no danger along the way, and the further you went, the faster the pointer of the compass in Xiuya's hand turned.
The road ahead was winding, and after a few minutes, we walked out of the passage, and just after coming out of the passage, the pointer on the compass suddenly stopped.
"Huh?" Su-ah examined the compass and patted it. The compass didn't react at all, as if it was broken.
Xiuya took a few steps left and right with the compass, and she didn't even indicate the south, south, west, and north.
The surroundings were dark, the ground was bare, there was no moon or stars in the sky, there was not a trace of wind, and the air was extremely dull and oppressive.
However, it was not pitch black, and you could see things within a radius of thirty meters.
Let's move forward. Han Dongzhu said, "Here...... Why is it wrong, this place is empty on all sides, I have been here a few times many years ago, every time I come here, there is a strong wind, just now I saw the moon and stars in the sky outside, so I can't see it here? ”
Xiuya's face was solemn. "It's not that simple here, it's very dull around, everyone follows me closely, be careful."
We all think there's something unusual about this area.
"Look at the back!" Ling Ling suddenly said: "The road behind is gone!" ”
We looked towards the intersection where we came, and there ...... Bare!
Not only is the road gone, but even the mountains are visible!
We came out of the passage and only walked about thirty meters. Everything that followed, all gone.
How could this happen?
How could the whole mountain not be seen?
We ran to the back, walked seventy or eighty meters, and there was no mountain at all!
Everything in front of us is beyond our comprehension, is it possible that we have come out of the passage and come to another dimension?
All three of us looked at Su-ah.
Xiuya looked cautious, "When we first came in before, there was a problem with my compass. It didn't work, now, the mountain is gone, everything is gone, here, I'm afraid, it's a formation. ”
"Formation?" I looked at Xiuya puzzled.
Xiuya said, "Eight years ago, I followed Master to deal with a matter. The person we are looking for is a very powerful formation master, and he has laid down a phantom array, trapping Master and me inside, which is somewhat similar to the environment here. ”
"It took Master and I six days to break through the formation."
Ling Ling said, "So, this is also a phantom array? What do we see as an illusion? ”
"Yes." Xiuya said: "Everything we see is fake, the disappearance of the mountain and the disappearance of the passage are all fake. It hasn't disappeared at all, and besides, we've lost our way and can't find our way back at all, the phantom array is true or false, this is the terrible thing about the phantom array. ”
I said, "But we just walked more than 30 meters forward, and then 70 or 80 meters back, and there are no passages or mountains?" Even if the formation will confuse our vision, how can the mountain disappear? ”
Xiuya said, "The formation will not only confuse our vision, but also confuse our brains, just now we thought that it was going back seventy or eighty meters, but not necessarily going back, the formation is not so simple." Those trapped in the phantom array have extremely difficult time getting out. ”
The spirit said, "Is there any way to get out?" ”
Xiuya said: "The compass has failed, we have completely lost our sense of direction, and the master taught me a method before, walking in a straight line, as long as I don't deviate from the direction." We can go out, but my way is not enough, we can't control and discern the direction at all. ”
"That is, we are walking in a straight line, not necessarily in a straight line."
Xiuya's meaning, she has no way now, with Xiuya's Taoism, she can't crack the formation.
We can't help but be a little disappointed. The only thing we can do now is to keep moving forward.
After walking for more than an hour, there is still a bare ground all around, and occasionally you can see a few small pebbles, according to Han Dongzhu, you can walk out in forty minutes here, and now we have walked for an hour.
Everyone is panicking, we are trapped here. Xiuya couldn't break the formation either.
After resting for a while, we walked in a different direction, and after more than half an hour, Lingling said, "The road here, we have walked before. ”
Lingling took the small pebbles on the ground and said, "We rested here for seven or eight minutes before, and these three small stones were put together by my boredness, that is, we walked for so long, it seems that we have been spinning in place and coming back again." ”
Spinning in place? We've been walking in both directions for so long, and we've been in the same place all the time?
So, we changed directions and continued to walk forward, and after walking for more than half an hour, Lingling found the three small stones she had placed earlier.
We sat on the ground to rest, Xiuya said: "This is the terrible thing about the formation, there is another way to get out, that is, to find out the law of change of the formation, find the formation eye, and destroy the formation eye to get out." ”
Xiuya explained. Any formation needs strength to maintain, it needs people to control, from ancient times, people have studied many formations, used for combat, defense, siege and so on.
Formations are divided into offensive formations and defensive formations. and auxiliary formations, many times, the formations are used interchangeably, which is extremely terrifying, and the phantom formation in front of us is just a simple auxiliary formation.
As long as you find the law of change of the formation and find the source of power to maintain the formation, you can find the eye of the formation, destroy the eye of the formation, and naturally you can go out.
For these, only Xiuya knows some fur, Xiuya asked the three of us to rest here, don't walk around, she went to move on alone.
I was a little worried, "What if we go apart and get separated?" ”
