Chapter 14: Growth
"Are you going to say you're a war spirit? Hehe, joke. The flames disappeared into the cave, and from time to time there were screams. My eyes went black and I lost consciousness.
"Where is this? What about Ah Kun? "I looked at the strange surroundings around me.
"Are you awake? This is March Slope, and Ah Kun is at home. There was some reluctance in the old man's eyes.
"You lied to me, Ah Kun was taken away by the Pavilion Master of Xunyi Pavilion, didn't he die for me?" I tugged at the old man's sleeve.
"Yes." I didn't expect the old man to admit it so happily.
"Then why didn't you go and save him? watched Ah Kun die. "I poured all my anger on the old man, a handful of snot and a handful of tears.
"I can't beat him." It was the first time the old man was so helpless.
"Why didn't I die, I was Xuanzi, I was the soul he wanted."
"You can't die, the spirit of war can't disappear." The corners of the old man's eyes were red. Maybe he'd rather die himself than let me die.
I finally understood that I had to be strong enough to keep the people around me.
"Are you curious about your background? You're just human, and you shouldn't even be alive. The old man lowered his head and smoked a dry cigarette.
"More than 20 years ago, you have died, it should be said that you are not dead, your parents held you to find me, and changing your life against the sky not only damaged your yin virtue, even your parents did not escape this catastrophe, I injected the war soul into your body, the two of you lived and died together, for so many years he has been in a state of sleep, not to be discovered, not long ago I felt the war soul in your body was about to move, and I found it in time to seal it, but it was still felt by Xunyi Pavilion. I was going to let you live a dull life, but you got in anyway. Hi ......" The old man's eyes were extremely reluctant and regretful.
"I want to save Ah Kun." I'll just say one thing briefly. For I have died three people, my dearest and beloved parents, and my brothers who gave up my lives.
I went out and stood at the top of the March Slope, staring blankly at a mountain far away from me.
"You've grown up." I turned my head and saw the bald head.
"Do you want to save Ah Kun?" The bald head asked me.
I lowered my head, "Yes, but I don't have the ability." ”
"The old man has the ability to save Ah Kun, why didn't he save it? Don't you want to know? Listening to the bald head's words, I was stunned at first.
"You say the old man has this ability?"
"Yes! I can feel the old man's powerful power, and it's definitely not that he can't defeat the Pavilion Master of Xunyi Pavilion. It's just that the water here is too deep, and if you don't pay attention, you will lose the life of the whole boat. "The bald head touches the slippery head.
It was like I was walking into a labyrinth, what the hell was going on with so much going on.
"No matter what, I will definitely save Ah Kun."
"I've got your back, it's time to go back. March slope can't go out at night. "The bald head tugged at me.
After eating, I looked at the old man, and I had a strange feeling, how much I have paid to protect me all these years, no, to save the soul of war.
"Xuanzi, you'll go out with me later." When the old man saw me looking at him, he suddenly spoke.
"Great." I was eating with my head down, and my mind was a mess.
The night of March Slope was very quiet, and the bald head told me that during the day March Slope was human, and at night March Slope was ghost. Occasionally, a cloudy wind blows, and the hairs stand on end.
The old man walked up to a dilapidated door and knocked on it. A voice came from inside the door. "People born outside the door will come back on a certain day, and the moon will be dark and the wind will be high in the sky to avoid suspicion."
The old man did not leave, and paused for three seconds. "I have something to ask for, is this from you?" The old man threw out the skeleton of Old Chen.
The skeleton hung in the air, creaked, and opened half of the door.
The old man and I entered the door, and a wooden chair was drawn from the left. The old man sat down unceremoniously, and I stood behind me.
A layer of black yarn is cut in the center, and the owner talks through the veil. "How did my friend know that this skull came from my hand?"
"I know that there is a strange person in March Slope, a person who is good at using defects to sell his life." As soon as the old man's words came out, I knew that the owner of the skeleton was the one sitting inside.
"Hehe, yes, this is indeed from my hand, but how can I take back the gift of what I gave away." It seems that the person inside does not intend to recover the skull.
"Then don't blame me for being rude." The old man picked up the skull with his bare hands, and with a bang, a puff of black smoke came out of the skull, shattering and falling to the ground.
The people inside exclaimed, "How can this be justified, send off guests." ”
I followed the old man out of the door, only to hear a bang, and the door was slammed shut.
"Phew, what's the big deal." I spat at the door.
"Let's go, this notoriously stingy, if you spit on him today, you will definitely double it back another day." The old man reminded me.
"Double it back, I'll wait, I'm afraid you won't make it?" With that, I kicked the door again.
"Boy, you wait for me, I will have your good fruit to eat in the future."
Damn, this kind of person really can't do anything big.
"Old man, are you going to let this kind of person go?" I looked at the old man and waited for him to answer.
"I can't control it, the people behind me don't even dare to mess with Maoshan, people like us are just little Luoluo." The old man shook his head helplessly.
When I got back to my room, the old man reminded me again: "Remember not to go out at night, this is not the same as our village, there are ghosts everywhere at night." Hearing the old man's words, I nodded vigorously.
Lying on the kang, what happened in the past few days has been calm for more than 20 years, lazy for more than 20 years, and everything has begun to change. I dug out the book I had stolen from the old man and began to study the Maoshan Dao Method.
Out-of-body? Purify their hearts, calm their chaos, and sit down in the Three Realms
Came out? I really came out, and it was too easy.
I swaggered out the door, and there were so many people on the street, thinking that I was a soul anyway, and they would know that I was still a human being.
"Little brother, you just died." A soft and weak scholar approached me.
"Why, a guest is dead in a foreign land, and there is nowhere to go." I pretended to be pitiful.
"Hehe, then you come with me, it's cool for you. What do you want, what do you want?" I nodded vigorously when I heard his words.
"You just died now, you have the breath of a living person on your body, it's very unsafe, follow me." The scholar smirked.
I hesitated and nodded, followed him around, turned into an alley, stopped at the back door of a house, and got into it through the crack in the door, and I stood outside the wall for some reason.
"Come in, you're still human, get in." I also learned from him to drill into the crack in the door, but he couldn't get in.
"It's really stupid, and the spirit can't be much stronger." After saying that, he opened the door. There were four large vats in the yard, and I wanted to get closer to see what was inside, but he stopped me.
