Volume 1 Spring Bamboo Shoots Chapter 37 Phantom Soul Dew and Tianye Xiang (I)
I am very indifferent to the birth of the drunkard, there are too many secrets in the small Xinghua Village, and there are too many hidden talents, such as Daddy Gui and Secretary Liu Yingguo, except for me, who else in the village knows?
In the past two days, I was busy cleaning up my room, and I didn't go to Mr. Lao Shu's house to see the excitement of Zeng Mengchun. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
When I was a child, I lived in a room with my parents, and now I want to practice martial arts, I want to practice magic, and I am eleven years old, and it is really inconvenient to live in one room with my mother, so my mother and I proposed to live alone, and my mother agreed, so I cleaned up the room where the miscellaneous items were piled up, and moved the bed and the five-drawer table where I slept, and I had a small space by myself.
My mother had to go out to work and didn't have time to pay attention to me, so I called Huang Shiren to carve a few of them, there were many people, and the house was cleaned and cleaned up at noon on the first day, and the bed and table were moved on the second day.
No, the first night I lay in bed, I was so excited that I tossed and turned on the bed and fried beans, and I couldn't sleep at all.
Anyway, I couldn't sleep, so I simply got up, lit the oil lamp, took out the small box left for me by Daddy Gui, took out the book "Qimen Dunjia", and flipped through it.
It is a codex, thick and somewhat worn, apparently over many years. The fly-headed small letters inside were dense, I held the broken dictionary, and struggled to read some of the previous contents, but I was dizzy, but I knew that this was a strange book. The so-called "odd" is three odd, which refers to the sun, moon and stars, corresponding to B, C and D in the ten stems; "Door" refers to the eight doors of rest, life, injury, Du, Jing, shock, death, and opening; "Escape" means to hide; "Jia" refers to Liujia, that is, Jiazi, Jiaxu, Jiashen, Jiawu, Jiachen, and Jiayin. What other terms are "Liuyi", "Nine Stars", "Eight Gods", "Three Plates", "Yang Dun", "Yin Dun" and so on. As for the connotation of the content, it is complex and obscure, and like the "Hug Puzi" I took out of the stone cave, it is not at all something that my five-year-old brain can imagine and understand.
But I knew that this was a rare book, otherwise Daddy Gui would not have passed it on to me solemnly, and repeatedly told me to keep it well and study and practice it carefully. I understand that in this world, it will not be easy to achieve anything, even Tang Seng has to go through nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties to go to the West Heaven to get a scripture, not to mention others? The cultivation of spells, including spells, must also be full of hardships.
At present, I can only take my time, read through the book first, have a rough impression in my mind, and then try to understand the obscure words and words in it in the future, so that it is possible to use the contents of the book for my own use.
It would be nice to have a teacher to teach you! I sighed in my heart.
It has been several days since the great heat has passed, and the lunar calendar has entered the beginning of July. It is estimated that it is almost late at night, the first quarter moon has set in the west, and it is pitch black outside the window, with the occasional firefly flickering silently from the window. Except for the insects and frogs of rare vegetables, the world is lonely. I put the book into the small box, played with the "Taoist Master's Treasure Seal", locked the small box and put it in the bedside table, turned off the lights and lay on the bed, gently shook the bamboo fan, slowly closed the heavy eyelids, and fell asleep.
…… The big weasel climbed in through the window and led me to the cave, and I was a little surprised: the two little weasels had grown their teeth, and they had gone out to forage for food a few days ago, and they no longer needed me to feed them, so what did you have to do with me?
The big weasel said: You were fated with me in your previous life, and you are kind to me in this life, I know that you are practicing magic now, and there are some things in this cave that are very useful to you, which can help you multiply your skills, and I will take you to get them. Just come with me.
It jumped in front of it, wading through the current, and went to the depths of the stone cave, and I followed behind, turning two forks, and came to a small empty stone chamber, and it said to a small hole in the stone wall: "The things are in it, you can go and get it yourself." After finishing speaking, I walked out, and I didn't know whether to go into the small cave or go out with it, but I saw an old man in a green robe with a white beard standing in the corner of the stone room, and said with a smile: Little baby, why did you come? The old way has been waiting for hundreds of years. Don't stay, just come in.
As he spoke, he raised his arm, and with a wave of the sleeves of his wide robe, the wind rose violently, and I involuntarily rose with the wind, and flew through the hole.
Before I could land, the entrance to the cave was closed, and it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything, and I was horrified and shouted: I want to get out! Let me out......
I sat up abruptly from the bed, reached out and wiped the beads of sweat from my forehead, and it took me a moment to calm down, and I carefully recalled the dream.
It was not yet dawn, and it was the darkest hour before dawn, and the roosters in the village were singing in a high-pitched voice. When their cries ceased, I heard a low "squeak" on the windowsill, like a mouse but not quite like a mouse, and I touched the match, snorted, and lit the oil lamp on the bedside table.
In the dim light, two fluffy black shadows jumped down from the windowsill, and a puff of smoke rushed up to the bed and crawled on top of me, and it was the two little weasels.
After the baby weasels went out to forage for food on their own, I went to the cave twice, but I didn't see them twice. I thought they had grown up, had their own lives, and might not go back to the cave again. I have too many things to do, I can't always delay work for them, more than a month of feeding and getting along, we are already familiar with each other, we have feelings, and suddenly separated, although there is melancholy, but after all, man and beast have different paths, and they have to let go when they should let go.
I haven't been to the cave again for the past few days. I didn't expect them to find their home.
I was overjoyed and held them in my arms. The two little ones have grown up a lot, with seven or eight inches long bodies and three or four long tails, which are very cute. They sniffed, squeezed, and whispered "squeaks" on me, looking incredibly excited.
I don't know how they found my home, maybe they also have a well-developed sense of smell like dogs, and they can find me based on my smell, maybe some other special function.
After playing for a while, I felt heavy eyelids due to the late sleep last night, and slowly fell asleep again.
In the morning, when my mother saw that I didn't get up to stand up and practice, she knocked on the door and told me to get up. I sat up and rubbed my eyes, and suddenly thought of the little weasels that had come in after my dream last night, and hurriedly looked around, but there was no sign of them, apparently they had slipped away after I had fallen asleep.
The little weasels are so clever that they come to my house every few days, at night, and every time I play with them for a while, and then go back to sleep, they don't have to worry about me, they sneak away at dawn.
I had been thinking about my dreams at night all day, and this was the third time that the big weasel had given me dreams. I actually believed it in my heart, and I was a little scared when I thought of the white-bearded old man who appeared later in the dream. What if I can't get in and out like in a dream? The big weasel didn't give me any hints.
I couldn't suppress my thirst and curiosity for the cultivation of magic, and I was sure that the big weasel wouldn't harm me, so I decided to go into the cave the next day to explore.
Since you have decided to enter the cave, it is natural to prepare in advance. A few days ago, my sister and I changed again, I chopped wood, and she took my sister to pull pigweed to do housework. It saves the trouble of arranging a sister with a foot.
After breakfast the next day, when my sister and sister went out, I locked the door and entered the house through the side door. After a while, Huang Shiren and they came to call me, Huang Shiren's leg injury has healed, and we have gathered together to chop wood in the past few days. I hid in the house and snickered silently, and after a few of them had scolded and left, I put the prepared flashlight, matches, turpentine, a few hard-boiled eggs, and a pot of spring water into the small basket left for me by Daddy Gui, took the peach amulet, and sneaked out of the village with the pig-killing knife that Daddy Nan had left for me.
Opening the door of the cave, I entered the stone cave, and two little yellow wolves "squeaked" over, probably sleeping in the nest after returning from my house.
I closed the door of the cave, sat down and rested for a while, put on my back the basket, turned on the flashlight with my left hand, held the pig-killing knife in my right hand, and turned the stone chamber behind me and walked inside. The two little weasels sprang to the front, they seemed to know where I was going, stopped for a while and waited for me, and when I came to them, they sprang forward as fast as they could.
According to my dream memory, I waded through the icy water and entered the strange rocky cave. I'm sure the two little ones are familiar with the path, and they stop and go and lead me into the fork in the hole. In order not to lose my way when I turn back, I made a mark on the stone wall of the cave with the tip of a pig-killing knife.
According to the memories in the dream and the little weasel's guidance, I estimated that I walked for about half an hour, and came to the end of the stone cave and the empty stone room in the dream.
It was really an empty stone room, I used a flashlight to shine around, the stone room is not big, smaller than my family's house, there are no stalagmites and stone pillars on the walls and feet, just a little uneven. I searched around the wall, but there was no small hole in my dream, and I knew that it must be the same as last time, and that I had to find it myself.
With the previous experience, according to the direction in the dream, it didn't take much effort for me to find the mechanism that controlled the opening and closing of the cave door, I looked at the small hole that was exposed, sat down and wanted to rest for a while, trying to calm my frantic heartbeat before entering.
When the two little ones saw me sit down, they immediately rushed over to me and drilled into my arms, I held them in my arms, and the heat from their bodies transmitted to my body through their hair, which made me very comfortable, and then I realized that I was actually cold, and I couldn't help but shiver.
Oversight is a big problem. It was a dog day with a scorching sun outside, but this stone cave was very shady, and the temperature was estimated to be in the tens and twenty degrees, so we went up the mountain to chop wood and work, no matter how hot it was, we never dared to wear undershirts and shorts, and always wore worn long-sleeved jackets and trousers to prevent scratches from thorny thatch. Despite this, it was still not enough to resist the cold in the cave, and he was highly nervous all the way just now, and he didn't even notice it.
I quickly stood up, put down the basket, took out a few pieces of turpentine wood from it, lit a match, and made a small fire, with the "crackling" sound of pine oil burning, my body gradually warmed up. But soon I felt nervous about extinguishing the fire, because the burning of the stone chamber produced black smoke, and the small space of the stone chamber, and the lack of obvious ventilation outlets, would not be unbearable for a long time. Isn't that self-defeating? I only burned it for a while, and it was okay, and I smelled the thick smell of smoke and slapped myself hard.
Since you're here, I'm going to go in and have a look anyway. I took the two little weasels in my arms, got into the hole, and walked inside.
Inside was a smaller stone room, after entering the room, I didn't bother to look inside, stood by the mouth of the cave and stared nervously, after a while, I saw that the hole was not closed as in the dream, then I put my mind down, put down the weasel, and turned back to look.
This frightened me to jump, only to see a skeleton leaning against the stone wall in the stone room, Bai Sensen's leg bones and skull shining with fluorescent, and the three large black holes on the skull at the position of the eyes and mouth made me dare not look directly. There were some scattered pieces next to the skeleton, presumably rotten clothes. It took me a moment to settle down, and I looked down to see two little weasels lying at my feet, four little eyes staring at the direction of the skeleton motionless, I clenched the pig-killing knife in my right hand, and the flashlight moved in all directions.
There was nothing else in the stone room except the skeleton and a small box next to it, I thought about it for a while, and estimated that this skeleton should be the white-haired old man in last night's dream, and the box next to it should be what the big weasel asked me to find.
After the teachings of Daddy Nan, Uncle Liang and Daddy Gui, I am more sensible and understand some truths. This small box, along with its contents, must have belonged to this predecessor who has passed away for an unknown number of years. I took a few steps forward, put down my flashlight and pig-killing knife, knelt down on the skeleton, kowtowed three times, and said:
"Senior, I don't know who you are, today I came into the cave and collided with my senior, please don't blame you. I will take this small box, please forgive me for my rudeness, I am still young, I can't do anything, and when I grow up in a few years, I will find a good piece of land, and I will collect the bones of your predecessors and bury them well. If you have any commands, please give me a dream. ”
After saying that, I stood up and stepped forward to pick up the box, the small box was cold, heavy, and probably iron.
I slowly exited the stone chamber and pulled the mechanism to close the hole. Led by two little weasels, they went all the way back.
