"Ahh

The beast elder did not interrupt me, or ask me anything, but looked at me with more interested eyes, as if waiting for my answer.

I put down the skin roll, but I was a little unsure.

Is this a discovery? After all, this is not really a thousand soul flowers, it is just painted by people, which has a lot of uncertainties, which is also the factor that I am not sure about.

"Huh?" Seeing my hesitation, the beast elder raised his eyebrows as if asking me.

As soon as I gritted my teeth, I was also relieved, anyway, no matter how I looked at it, I only found this abnormality, so I pointed to the part of the flower heart and said, "I'm not sure, because it's just a painting after all." Here, much like a woman's pitying and weeping face. ”

Yes, that's what I found.

Originally, this problem should have been discovered a long time ago, but as soon as the beast elder said this, I kept obsessed with every detail, but I didn't notice the whole picture.

When I said it, my mood calmed down, after all, the beast elder will eventually solve the riddle.

And when I look at this painting with this calm mood, I feel more and more that the heart of the flower is like the face of a sad and pitiful woman hidden in the middle of the flower, and the background of this white flower is on a dark lonely place, and this sadness and pity are infinitely magnified by the environment.

After watching it for a long time, there is a kind of sublimation to the realm of great compassion.

"Ahem" the beast elder interrupted me with a cough, and then chuckled and said, "Don't look any further, or your mood will be affected by this compassion." Is the Thousand Soul Flower mortal? Notice this? It was painted by an unknown painter in ancient times after seeing a thousand soul flowers for a moment and never forgetting them. In order to express what he saw at that moment as clearly as possible, he desperately wanted to use realistic painting methods to draw a picture of this flower truthfully. ”

"Huh?" I don't know how the beast got on this picture again.

"However, you know that my Chinese paintings pay attention to artistic conception, and they are never good at realism. It's just that this painter still tried his best to do it, and he unconsciously brought out a trace of the artistic conception of a thousand soul flowers. This painter is just an ordinary person, and on the day the painting was completed, he was too deeply affected by this thousand soul flowers and chose to hang himself. The beast elder lightly talked about this slightly legendary and somewhat tragic story.

"Why hang yourself?" I seem to have grasped the crux of the story that the beast told me.

"He is just an ordinary person, and when he looks at the Thousand Soul Flower for a moment, he has already been infected by the powerful aura of the Thousand Soul Flower. I still insist on painting day and night, I am afraid that my whole soul will be affected by this sorrow. Only death can resolve his sorrow. The beast elder said to me.

"So it's the Thousand Souls Flower itself that is at risk in this matter?" I was also a little worried about the beast elder's answer.

But he wasn't very worried, after all, cultivators were often determined people, and their own souls and aura were stronger than ordinary people.

What ordinary people would be affected by, cultivators would not necessarily be affected by this kind of influence.

"Yes, it's a dangerous thing. Do you know what a Thousand Souls Flower is? According to Taoism, it is the 'flower of heavenly mercy', which means that it is a place of compassion and great grievances between heaven and earth, and such a flower grows with real grief for the deceased and pity for the deceased, and its true meaning is to soothe the grievances of some of the deceased and prevent these places of great grievances from becoming a real place of curse. After all, a ghost has an impact, but there are also professionals who want to eliminate it. What about the hundreds of thousands of unjust ghosts in that fierce land? I'm afraid this person can't withstand the consequences of this kind of thing outbreaking. The beast elder said faintly.

"Legend has it that the Thousand Soul Flowers contain the true compassion in the Heavenly Dao, true pity, and the Tao! A small flower can soothe a thousand souls, and it is a thousand soul flowers. ”

"Such a true way of heaven and earth, if the state of mind is not enough, isn't it dangerous to pick it rashly? Even if you look at it for a while, it will be greatly affected, so the Thousand Soul Flower generally grows in the most inconspicuous place, and the appearance of the whole flower is close to that of a wildflower. That is also the mercy of heaven and earth, not to let idlers and other idlers find out but after all, it is the flower of heaven and earth, once you see it, you can naturally feel the difference. ”

"That's one thing I want to remind you. When you see a thousand soul flowers, be sure not to look at them too much, just go and pick them. After picking, stick this on your eyes, you can block the influence of the Thousand Soul Flower, as for the influence of the aura, you need to be strong-willed. ”

As he said this, the beast elder handed me a tiny cloth bag.

I endured the great uneasiness in my heart, and opened the cloth bag, and inside was a pair of transparent things, like a film.

"What is this?" It's always a bit awkward to stick to the things on the eyes without asking clearly, it's not that you don't trust the beast elders.

"Snake's eye mask." The beast elder replied calmly: "If the snake has no spirit, its eyes are the most indifferent and ruthless eyes in the world. Take its artistic conception, pass guò my special treatment, in short, can block you some time, so that you can come back smoothly. ”

Want to put a snake eye mask on your eyes? Isn't it the same as wearing contact lenses?

I felt a little awkward in my heart, but I still put away the cloth bag wordlessly.

But at this time, where could he bear it, and he couldn't help asking: "Beast Elder, you said that this Thousand Soul Flower is the mercy of heaven and earth, the flower of heaven and earth, this thing of heaven and earth, I rashly picked it, this?" ”

"Fear of damnation?" The beast elder gave me a look.

"No, but I feel that I went to pick the flower that originally soothed the souls, for fear that there would be a monstrous disaster. I can't bear it, and I take away a trace of comfort from these unjust souls. "That's what really came to mind.

"Hey" Speaking of this, the beast elder also sighed and was silent for a while.

After being silent for a long time, he said: "I came to this ghost market and let three young people go one after another. They also have concerns, but they are afraid that God will punish you, but you are the first to say so. In that case, I might as well give you a few more secrets, but are you sure you want to listen? ”

I was silent, unsure if I wanted to hear any secrets.

What the beast elder didn't say must have confirmed what I thought at the moment, that is, I knew too many secrets, and it wasn't necessarily a good thing.

But my silence was regarded as a tacit approval by the beast elder, and he spoke: "If a Thousand Soul Flowers appeared somewhere else, I would definitely not dare to do such an angry thing. A thousand soul flower soothes a thousand souls, and the time when the flower is thanked must be the time for resentment. Even if it is not completely resolved, the rest is something that the relevant cultivators can solve. ”

"But this place is different! Don't you find this place weird? The suppression of the big array, the long-term opening of the market, is because of the inner market here, under the thousand soul flowers, it is not an ordinary unjust ghost. Even, the formation of this inner market has its historical reasons. When you enter the inner market, if you have that opportunity, you can learn a thing or two. ”

"In short, you remember, the Thousand Soul Flowers here are pluckable flowers. And I'm not the only one who came up with the idea. ”

"The thing I reminded you just now is far from being the most dangerous, but I'm afraid that it will fall short in the end, so I have to remind you." As soon as the beast elder opened his mouth, he said these words to me.

But no secrets were mentioned!

But after thinking about it carefully, he said that at least he was a little more solid, and there was a reason why this ghost market was open for a long time.

Because speculation is just speculation, and someone can say it with such certainty, it is equivalent to telling you a big secret, and you can analyze it in this direction.

I vaguely seemed to grasp something, but at such a time, how could I wholeheartedly analyze something that did not seem to me much for the time being?

I was concerned about something else, and I asked the beast elder: "The influence of this Thousand Soul Flower on people's minds is not the most dangerous thing, so what is it?" ”

The beast elder touched his chin and said to me, "What's that?" I'm afraid this can only be experienced by yourself. If you want me to say, I can only say that the inner city is dangerous, and this thousand soul flowers are in a place tentatively named Broken Soul Cliff in the inner city, and that place is even more dangerous in danger. Do you understand that? ”

"Hmm." I said yes.

But I was thinking in my heart, how big is this inner market, and there is even a cliff, and they all say that the inner market is dangerous, why can't they tell me more specifically?

But at this moment, the beast elder's voice sounded in my ears again: "It's not that I don't want to sue you for the specifics of the inner market. It's just that I've been here for two years, and I haven't set foot in the inner city once. Even the people who know that I am the old beast do not exceed the number of five fingers, and they were inquired about by you two boys. Is this the fate I have to wait for? ”

When I heard the beast elder say this, my heart was also very strange.

Although this old man is said to be a doctor, seeing him shoot twice, I am afraid that his skills are not low, at least stronger than me, why should I pick this thousand soul flower, and even he refuses to set foot in the inner market?

However, this seems to involve the secret of the beast elder, and I don't want to ask too much.

Since the matter has been settled, then all that remains is when to do it, but I also smiled bitterly in my heart, I only knew a broken soul cliff, and I rushed to the most dangerous place in the inner city, this behavior is really enough for a single person.

The beast elder also said: "Forget it, I don't want to." It's like fate, but it made me wait for a person who had almost no hope, and his soul was broken, that is, it was difficult to condense, and I was afraid that with the protection of snake eyes, it would be difficult to resist the aura and influence of the Thousand Soul Flower. Not to mention other dangers, broken souls, how to fight? ”

"But since it's already you, then you can go as soon as I prepare."

At this time, the dust has settled, and I am just waiting to set off, but why I can break the regulations and go to the outer city and the inner market, I didn't ask much.

What neither I nor the beast elder noticed was that the street outside the medical hall, which had been relatively deserted before, seemed to be a little more lively at this time.
