Chapter 42: The Treasure at the Bottom of the Box
There were some topics that I didn't dare to touch too much, and when I heard the village chief say this, I just stayed for a while, and then wiped away my tears in silence.
The village chief should understand that kind of mood, sad to the depths, natural speechlessness and evasion.
Because no matter how much you say, the people who have left will not come back, and the things that have passed cannot be completely repeated, so why say too much and touch them repeatedly? People want to live, and they must live every day that is passing, living in pain and suffering, and suddenly feel that that is itself a kind of greatest strength.
Calming down, I walked into the village chief's house.
There were already several people sitting in the house, the village chief, a few elders from Wangxian Village, Tina, Su Ling, and Brother Zhengchuan, who had been separated for some time.
When I entered the house, Brother Zhengchuan was the first to stand up, and before I could speak, he punched me.
Originally, the fist was aimed at my face, but I didn't dodge, but in the end, the fist landed on my shoulder, and I felt very weak.
"If you treat me like this again in the future, you don't need to call me brother, call me senior brother." Although Brother Zhengchuan's fists were weak, his words were very heavy.
No one in the room spoke, and probably knew what had happened, except for the village chief, who said, "The head of the family, you should give Zhengchuan a good apology." I think Masakawa is not angry that you knocked him unconscious or something, but that you have the feeling of hiding him. ”
What the village chief said is right, I think if it were me, I would be very angry that this kind of being concealed and then forcibly sent away, even if I understand that the other party has more reasons, I will be angry.
But I can't explain it, maybe there will be many such collisions in the future, and the people who care about me don't want me to take risks, but now that I'm doomed, it's impossible to do everything safely, and there is no danger at all, so I can only say to Brother Zhengchuan and all the people here: "I can't guarantee whether I will choose an extreme way in the future." And Brother Zhengchuan, you can be angry, you can be angry, but you can't say that you are not my brother, not my senior brother. Because, no matter what you say, I will not approve. Our feelings are not something you can deny with a word. All I can say is that whether I live or die, I will not fail our feelings. ”
"You" Brother Zhengchuan looked at me, his face flushed, obviously full of anger and wanted to vent, but in the face of my words, there was no refutation.
I hugged Brother Zhengchuan fiercely and whispered, "I am really happy and relieved that you can return to Wangxian Village safely." I heard the driver talking about it at the bottom of the mountain, and that's how it was for me. In the past few days, I have not been safe, although I know that it should be safe, I have always been worried, what if you can't return to Wangxian Village smoothly? If that's the case, I can't forgive myself. ”
"Stinky boy!" Brother Masakawa slammed his fist twice on my back.
I knew that at this point, he had forgiven me for that rough approach.
It snowed overnight and it fell into the morning.
But in the morning, it slowly stopped, and I thought that the sky would be gloomy, but the sun stubbornly passed through the clouds in the morning, revealing a trace of brilliance.
The wind became dry, with the chill peculiar to winter, but it was extremely refreshing and comfortable.
The virtuous wife of the village chief brought out a plate of scallion pancakes branded with mutton fat and a few bowls of tea, exuding an attractive aroma.
We were in the hall, sitting around the big round table, smelling the tempting aroma of the cakes, and just wanted to get them, but were pulled by the village chief's wife: "Look at your blushing face, you must have drunk several bowls of wine in the square outside?" The old man asked you to talk about something, you are the head of our family, you can't be confused, let's drink this first. ”
While talking, the village chief's wife quickly brought out a bowl of thickly boiled millet porridge from the kitchen and put it in front of me.
I can't describe the warmth of my heart at this time, as if I returned home, returned to my parents, and my parents lived a very peaceful and stable life under my 'lies', although they hardly saw me for most of the year.
But here I clenched my fists gently, and it will be the place I want to protect.
Our atmosphere was very casual, but the respected elders in the village couldn't help but be excited and shed tears, because my return made it impossible for them to really calm their minds and not get excited.
Tina and Su Ling couldn't control their emotions either, and then became excited, until the village chief chewed onion pancakes and talked about the next topic: "Family master, you are now back." It is very necessary for you to know everything in Wangxian Village, and I will tell you all about it in detail in a minute. Before I do that, though, I want to say one thing, there are some uninvited guests at the foot of the mountain. ”
I was drinking millet porridge with my head down, and when I heard the village chief say this, I understood in my heart that the pursuers should have arrived.
I didn't care about some pursuers, the big deal was the battle, but I didn't want to expose this last 'paradise' for the Huo Nie family, so my mood suddenly became heavy, and I looked at the village chief and asked, "How do you know?" ”
"In the entire mountain where your mountain gate is located, there is actually a large mountain protection array. On weekdays, it is not running at full capacity, because once it is running at full capacity, it will be very expensive. However, you also know that there is a Spirit Gathering Array at your mountain gate, you didn't expect it, right? In fact, the existence of the Spirit Gathering Array is not only to nourish your soul back then, but also to serve as the eye of the entire mountain protection array. With its support, the Mountain Protection Array has been functioning at its fullst, although it has not been operating at full strength. Within the range of its envelope, if you break into an uninvited guest, you can sense it. While the village chief was talking, he put down the cake in his hand, called Brother Zhengchuan for help, and entered the back room.
After a while, the village chief and Brother Zhengchuan carried out a somewhat huge array plate from the back room and placed it in front of us.
I looked at this array carefully, and the lines and lines on it seemed to be natural, but there were only seven simple lines.
Around the seven stripes, there are more complex and countless fine lines around, which can feel the traces of man-made, but they are all extremely clever and ingenious.
"This is the real treasure at the bottom of your mountain gate, controlling this section of the mountain range. Master, you use your soul power to sink into this array of feelings. "After the village chief moved out of the array, he just briefly introduced it to me, and he had completely stated the value of the array.
In the secret cave of my mountain gate, Brother Zhengchuan and I saw several supernatural formations, even half-heaven-level formations, but we didn't expect that there was a really unborn mountain protection array at the bottom of the box in the entire Mingyang Gate.
I looked at the array plate, and did not sink the soul power into it for the first time, but couldn't help but reach out and touch the seven natural lines on the array plate, Brother Zhengchuan is much higher than me in the formation, that is his talent, otherwise he would not be accepted by the master as the only inheritance disciple, unlike me who entered the mountain gate, in order to keep me safe and let me grow up smoothly.
"This array is the array that controls the mountain protection array, right? It should be matched with the big array, and under normal circumstances, it will be after the big array is formed, and such a control array will be made. But I didn't want to form a big formation, so I actually formed seven heavenly formations, which were naturally formed. So, looking at this array, Brother Zhengchuan suddenly said what was extraordinary about it.
"Zhengchuan is right, sure enough, your inheritance did not disappoint your master." The village chief said appreciatively.
Brother Zhengchuan blushed slightly, but just urged me to use my soul power to sink into the array and feel it.
I did as I said, and slowly sank the soul power into the array, and at first there was no special reaction, just felt that the soul power was flowing along the formation, but after less than a second, I suddenly entered a very peculiar state, as if I was naturally brought into a state of contemplation.
Then, I sensed the entire mountain peak where Mingyangmen was located, and the scope was more than that, this sense slowly spread, until it spread to several adjacent peaks, and then gradually stopped.
No wonder the village chief said that a section of the mountain range was enveloped, and this was not an exaggeration.
After sensing this, I suddenly felt that I had become a pair of eyes in this mountain range, every wood, every section of flowing water, and even every slightly more powerful life form in the mountain.
Like a mother bear hibernating with a cub, in her arms, the cub stretches its right arm and like a mountain leopard, walking in the snow, with bursts of white air coming out of its mouth
I even suddenly realized that if my soul power was stronger, I could sense even weaker beings!
What is it? A long-lost consciousness? Divine consciousness is related to spiritual consciousness and soul power, but people with strong spiritual consciousness have more advantages than people with strong soul power who cultivate divine consciousness! In short, no matter which of these two is powerful, it can be regarded as a talent for cultivating divine sense, but this kind of kung fu has long been lost.
It may not have been lost, but it is recorded in some classics that cultivating divine consciousness is even more difficult than cultivating other methods!
I didn't expect that today, I could do all this with the help of a formation left by the mountain gate.
I was a little excited in my heart, but none of this was the key, the key was that I really found more than a dozen particularly obvious auras in the mountain, which were several times stronger than the breath of any creature in the mountain, and there were five of the most powerful ones, and that aura was not far from the four people I had dealt with before.
They were moving rapidly towards the mountain, and at this rate, it would take no more than half a day to reach the summit.
This should be the uninvited guest that the village chief said, that is, the pursuer I sensed before.
Thinking of this, I wanted to withdraw from this formation, but I didn't expect that as soon as the thought arose, I withdrew from this wonderful state, and the soul power flowed in the opposite direction along the formation again, and then I opened my eyes all of a sudden, and saw that everyone was looking at me.
"What do you think, master?" The village chief took a sip of tea, but there was not much worry in his eyes, but a flame burned.
