Chapter 37: The First Sun
As she spoke, Xian'er's eyes never took her eyes off the gossip mirror.
I suddenly remembered that the last time Luo Youfang came to our house, he did sleep in my parents' bedroom for one night. I also thought that this gossip mirror was attached under the bed, during this time the master was not at home, and no one else came to our house, and it seemed impossible for anyone else to put the gossip mirror under the bed except Luo Youfang.
And this gossip mirror is exactly the same as the one in my master's house...... Could it be that Luo Youfang is really a person who keeps the right line, but why did he hurt my parents? Also, my master has always said that in the line of integrity, there are only two of us masters and apprentices, and I have never mentioned that I also have a fellow master.
Xian'er closed the window, walked up to me, picked up the gossip mirror, and said to me, "The water in the Soul Village is muddy!" Especially in your vein, there are countless lifetimes of grievances and grievances. Chai Ye didn't tell you these things, because he was afraid that he would think too much and not be able to practice with peace of mind. Alas, speaking of which, Chai Ye has the heart to protect you, but in the end, aren't these things going to fall on you? I really don't know what he thinks...... Cheer up, it's coming! ”
My mind was so chaotic that I didn't react for a while. Is it coming? Who is it?
But just when my mind was still confused, there was a sudden "hissing" sound in the air, although the voice was different from the voice of the fairy, and it sounded a little unreal, but I also understood that it was the snake spirit coming!
I endured the soreness on my body and quickly rolled over and got up from the ground.
Xian'er didn't know when there was another long lantern in her hand, and there was still a dark green flame in the lantern, but this time, the luster of the flame was already very dim. I know that Xian'er should be almost at the limit.
She blocked the entrance of the stairs with a lantern, her face was nervous, but she was still saying: "The fox fire should still be able to block it, and when it is dawn, you will open all the windows and doors." ”
I nodded silently, but I was still worried. This is still the top of the tower, as soon as the doors and windows are opened, the yang energy will rush in instantly, and when the time comes, not only the snake spirit, but also the fairy will be dangerous.
Xian'er tilted her head at me slightly and said, "Don't worry about me, I have a way to get out." Here it comes! ”
Before she could finish speaking, there was a sudden heavy chill from the top of the stairs, and my hands and feet were cold in a moment. The yin qi on the snake spirit's body hadn't been so fierce before, but now, it had to make a final fight.
At the same time, the lantern in Xian'er's hand was extinguished. She and I didn't expect such a change, that is, in a stunned sense, the huge body of the snake spirit suddenly crossed the fairy, and two rows of huge fangs appeared in front of me.
My reaction at that time was also extreme enough, and when I saw the snake spirit, I immediately remembered the hemp rope that I grabbed when I practiced the Tiangang lock. My master would often suddenly throw the hemp rope in front of me and let me grab it with the technique of Tiangang lock, and when I grabbed it, I had to concentrate and try to find the threshold of contemplation.
Almost instinctively, I calmed my heart for the first time, and at the same time reached out and directly "grabbed" the snake spirit's neck.
This position of the snake's neck is also the position I often grasp when I grasp the hemp rope. But the hemp rope is real, but the snake spirit is empty, my fingers passed directly through the snake spirit, but I don't know if it's because I inadvertently reached the realm of thinking or what's going on, I grabbed it like this, and the snake spirit's body paused in mid-air.
Could it be that the Tiangang lock can also be used to deal with ghosts? Of course, with the situation at the time, I shouldn't have thought about it so much, I still didn't think about it, I just remember that the next moment I bit the tip of my tongue, and a mouthful of pure yang blood sprayed directly towards the snake spirit's gaping mouth.
After all, after all these years of being nurtured by my master, my yang qi is almost equivalent to a strong sulfuric acid for the snake spirit, although my blood passed through its body and fell on the floor, it was still greatly stimulated, and its whole body was violently twisted.
When the blood flew past Xian'er, Xian'er also hurriedly dodged to the side as if she was facing a great enemy.
In fact, I shouldn't have used my hands to catch the snake spirit, just spit out this mouthful of blood, when my hand touched the spirit of the snake spirit, I felt a chill through my palm into my body, when the blood was spurted, there was not much feeling, but after a mouthful of yang blood spurted out, the chill also became extremely biting, only for a moment, my hands and feet lost consciousness, and even my brain seemed to be frozen by it.
And the gossip mirror also fell to the ground at this time.
Xian'er was still shouting at me at this time: "It's now!" Open the window! ”
I could hear her voice, but my body couldn't react, and it wasn't an exaggeration to say that my body really froze, although I could also feel that there was another cold qi behind me, pushing the snake spirit's yin qi out of my body, but it would take time.
When Xian'er spoke, she was already ready to run downstairs, but she saw that I didn't move, just stood stiffly and looked at her. I think Xian'er must have realized that something was wrong with me, and I saw her looking at a window that was heading straight for the snake spirit, and after a moment's hesitation, a determined expression appeared on her face.
I knew what she wanted to do, and I wanted to tell her not to do it. But she had already come to me, picked up the gossip mirror on the ground, threw it to the snake spirit, and then rushed to the broken window, opening it without the slightest hesitation.
At the moment when the two windows were opened, a faint sunlight poured in, and Xian'er seemed to be lit from the inside of her body, and thick green smoke came out of her head and shoulders. She quickly avoided the sunlight and crouched in the darkest corner of the room, and although I could not touch her now, I could clearly feel her weakness, and even the coldness she brought to me became very faint.
The sunlight hit the black gossip mirror, and the gossip mirror was hit by the yang energy, and immediately became restless, and kept trembling, and bursts of dust suddenly rose on the ground. But the snake spirit became unusually quiet, it put its head on the gossip mirror, let the sunlight pass through its body, the yang energy quickly consumed its yin energy, and its body quickly became transparent.
Just as the serpent's eyes were about to dissipate, it turned around and glanced at me.
I still vividly remember the look in his eyes at that time, a kind of relief and gratitude, and a deep reluctance to give up the world.
At that moment, the snake spirit seemed to have regained its mind, and at this moment, it became the river god of the infant river again.
The river god who favored countless infant spirits who died early and gently guided them to the Yellow Spring Road.
A moment later, the snake spirit disappeared from this world, just like the river of babies it had guarded for hundreds of years.
People say that if you don't die in a catastrophe, you will have a blessing, and the rest of your life after the catastrophe should be a happy thing. But at that time, my heart was heavy, as if something hit my heart hard, and I couldn't slow down for a long time.
When my body could barely move, I immediately ran to see Xian'er's condition.
Xian'er was too weak to speak, and she sat almost motionless on the ground, looking at me with only her eyes, and moving her eyes, as if trying to look at the open window.
I knew that she was afraid of the yang energy in my body, and I didn't dare to approach her or speak, but I knew what she meant, so I closed the window and looked at her from afar.
At this time, Xian'er's body also looks very erratic, I'm afraid it won't be long before even she disappears like the snake spirit.
For Xian'er, it is difficult for me to define what the relationship between her and me is, say it is a friend, it doesn't seem to be counted, say it's not a friend, she saved me three times, if she is my benefactor, it doesn't seem to be too much, but in my heart, the word benefactor seems to be only worthy of my master.
But anyway, I'm just very worried about her, especially when I see her weak, I feel very sad, and I don't know if this sadness is because of guilt or gratitude, in short, it's very uncomfortable.
I also know that I can't do anything now, and if my master is here, what else can I do...... By the way, I'll go find my master!
Thinking so, I went downstairs, and when I reached the staircase, Xian'er glared at me, and it seemed that I was to blame him for leaving him alone.
I didn't dare to speak, and it wasn't until I reached the bottom of the tower that I shouted upstairs, "Wait for me, I'll go find my master." ”
I endured the pain in my body and ran home as fast as I could.
It was still early, but my mother had already gotten up, saw me coming back in disgrace, and asked me what was wrong. I didn't have the heart to explain, so I quickly dialed my master's mobile phone number.
At that time, it took a long time for mobile phones to go from dialing a number to being connected.
I looked at the clock on the wall, and the second hand walked one small block after another, and with each movement, I felt like my heart was on fire.
At this time, the phone was connected, and I didn't wait for Master to speak, so I yelled into the phone: "Xian'er has an accident, Master, please save her!" ”
My master seemed to be stunned on the other side of the phone for a moment, and then asked me in a very anxious tone, "What's the matter, what's wrong with that little fox ghost?" ”
I didn't say a word about what happened last night, and yelled at my master: "She was hit by yang energy, ...... It's almost gone! ”
At that time, I really didn't dare to say a word, for fear of delaying time. I'm afraid that by the time I go back, Xian'er won't be able to hold on, and I'm really afraid that I won't be able to see her in the future.
My master told me not to worry, and said that there was an ink fountain under his pillow, and asked me to use that ink fountain to collect Xian'er's soul, and then call him when I was done.
Although my master told me not to worry, his tone was very worried, saying that I must collect Xian'er's soul before six o'clock, otherwise it will be too late.
My mother was still asking me, "Who is Xian'er and what happened?" ”
