Chapter 230: The Blind Fox
I haven't sung a shamanic song for a long time, but the lyrics have long been seared in my mind and cannot be forgotten, but at this moment, what makes me blurt out is not the drama in the orthodox "Stick Soldier", but my own exclamation with my surname, I sing:
"It is said that the falling West Mountain has smeared the sky, and he is in a lonely city and sighs in the world. One of the magpies fell to the well, and the crows flew into the sky in mourning. The stars in the sky are still safe, but the people on earth are in trouble. It is said that numerology may sometimes have to be there, but the sorrow is that the sea of chasing love and hate is boundless, and since resentment is the seed of bad karma, why hasn't the world seen it? Jealousy comes and laughs, and after all, it is a big dream.
A few people are worried, a few people are worried, and a few times are sick and when they will rest. After several times of chasing no good results, he woke up from a dream several times. How many people rejoice in the short-term joy, and how many lament the rampant materialism? Why do people in the world always harm others and themselves, and why is there no end to empty hearts? When will the pursuit of fame and fortune be enough, and will gold and silver really fill sorrows? How can there be enough at the moment of getting together, one is parting and the other is sad. Whether the Yiren go away or not, leaving only a touch of lovesickness endlessly.
The grievance is that life is like a drama with bitterness and sweetness, the sad thing is that people deceive people and deceive people, sigh that the morning flowers bloom so shortly, and the question is, where is hell and where is the world! Oops.............................."
My voice was slow and my voice was hoarse, and I spoke slowly to the dull beat of the drums. The sound of drums and songs floated over this huge grassland, singing and singing, I found that my tears kept flowing down, and Dao An beside me also sobbed in a low voice, and Shao Yu gradually lost his smile, I finally understood why the original shaman would use this form of song to communicate with all things in heaven and earth, because music is indeed the best way to communicate.
I continued to sing, word by word, all of them were the words of emotion that I realized, and after hearing such a shaman song, all the people were silent, even Ma Tianshun and Lei Zi sat on the ground without saying a word, looking at their appearance, it seemed that these words were also touched by the softness buried deep in the heart, the original surname of people is good, there is no absolute evil in this world at all. Although now my shaman song can no longer attract those foreign immortals, but this is an excellent opportunity to communicate, the drum sound of the Kaiyuan drum seems to have a kind of magic, can directly touch people's hearts, but at that time I still didn't understand that not all people in this world can really communicate, after all, we think differently from each other.
I was already in tears, and just as I was about to finish singing, suddenly Shao Yu, who had been pondering, raised his head and shouted at me, "Stop singing!" What are you singing about!? ”
I wiped my tears, and then whispered to him in a very nasal voice: "Don't you understand, I'm helping you, don't sink anymore, harm others will eventually harm yourself." ”
"What are you kidding?!" After Shao Yu heard my words, he suddenly jumped like thunder, I don't know if it was because of his weak heart or what, I saw him yelling at me loudly: "I want your help?" Do you really think of yourself as a god?! I'm just a liar, so who is in a position to say this to me?! Oh, it's gas, it's gassing!! ”
I saw that after he said 'angry' several times in a row, he scolded me: "Don't call him mourning again!" Hurry up and stop me! ”
I sighed, it seems that he is really hopeless, the values and experiences since childhood are mixed with interests, and his world has been distorted, and it is no longer something I can communicate.
So I shook my head and continued to beat the drum, a habit that had been cultivated for a long time, a set of drums had to be finished, but just as my drum beat was at the end, something unexpected happened.
While I was beating the drum, Shao Yu kept scolding, but as he scolded, his expression suddenly froze, and my expression stiffened, because I found that something seemed to be approaching in the grass in the distance, as if it was an animal the size of a dog, and it was running fast, as if a yellow light was coming straight towards us.
And at this time, I only heard the thunder behind him exclaim: "Fox!! ”
Fox? I was really stunned, almost in disbelief. You know, isn't it a 'death charm crying in the sky' today, and all psychic rituals have lost their effect? So what's going on with this fox? Is this just a coincidence?
Just as I was wondering, the beat of the drum in my hand finally stopped abruptly, and the fox came out of the grass and came to me.
The sudden appearance of this fox made us all stunned, and many questions arose in my mind, and I thought to myself, could it be a coincidence? Could it be that this fox is the fox fairy who guards the land of the dragon vein? Did you come because you heard my drums?
But isn't that right? You must know that I don't feel a trace of aura similar to Hu Baihe on this fox's body, and if this fox has really attained enlightenment, then why doesn't it transform into a human form at this time, but just squats on the ground and gasps?
Just when I was puzzled, I saw that the big fox in front of me suddenly raised its head to face me, and when I saw the appearance of this fox, my heart was shocked.
This fox has no eyes!
It may not be appropriate to say this, but I looked at this 'uninvited guest' carefully, and saw that the fox was yellow, and the luster of its fur was dull and withered, and it was an old fox, and there was no longer too much fox fur on its tail, and it seemed to be very tired, and it looked like an old dragon, and its eyes and eyelids were tightly pressed together, and there were two thick scars at the junction, and it was obvious that it had been blind for a long time.
The blind fox, on the other hand, did not seem to be afraid of anyone at all, but he sat down in front of me, tilted his head and sniffed in my direction, and then nodded at us, then stood up, turned his head and walked away, and after taking two steps, turned and nodded at me.
This means that it clearly wants us to follow it, but is it a monster or not, and where is it going to take us?
There were no fools among these people who came to the hometown of the fox fairy, and the situation at that time, I think it should have been obvious, I saw Shao Yu's expression instantly change from the hideous just now to ecstasy, and I saw him look up to the sky and shout: "The sky has eyes!" ”
Then, he pulled up his backpack, and then hurriedly shouted to Ma Tianshun and Lei Zi behind him: "Quick, let's keep up!" ”
This is really a creation to make people, I looked at the blind fox's Beiying and felt a pain in my heart, I really didn't expect that under the yin and yang, I actually triggered the last condition to the northeast dragon vein and the fox fairy treasure.
It was only then that I finally understood, why the legend is to find the treasure of the fox fairy, the "Gang Soldier Formula" and the Kaiyuan Drum are indispensable, it turns out that this is the genius of the young Baturu, the location of the treasure hunt is hidden in the mantra of the gang of soldiers, but the treasure cannot be found by the mantra of the gang of soldiers, because there is no indication for the last section of the road.
If you want to find the treasure of the fox fairy in this prairie, you must have a 'guide'. And the role of this guide is the blind fox.
Thinking that this fox is probably the fox fairy of the green Baturu era, it is precisely because of the blindness that it will grow here, the Kaiyuan drum is the evidence of calling it, because the person who can beat the Kaiyuan drum must be the orthodox royal shaman, thinking of this, I can't calm down in my heart, my ancestor is really unusually meticulous, who would have thought that the most important link to the fox fairy treasure is actually a blind fox who only listens to the sound of the Kaiyuan drum and drum?
Wait, I suddenly remembered what Shao Yu told me before in the late Qing Dynasty scholar's travelogue, thinking that the scholar was taken to the hometown of the fox fairy after being rescued by the fox fairy, according to his records, it seems that he also watched a few plays that night, and in the family he recorded, there is indeed such an old man who leans on the door with his eyes closed and seems to be blind, could it be that the old man Ding that the person said is this fox?
And when I think about it this way, it seems that all things can be explained, because it was not mentioned in the travelogue before, and after listening to the scholar talk about the social situation at that time, the old fox said to him that it would not be long before they would leave here. Thinking about it, those foxes also understand in their hearts that Qingbaturu belongs directly to the Manchu Qing, and if the Manchu Qing Dynasty is destroyed, this shamanism will also dissipate, but they can leave here to go to the holy subway of the fox fairy, after all, although this is the hometown of the fox fairy, but it is really not suitable for them to practice, so think about it, now in the entire fox fairy hometown, there should be only this blind fox alone to continue his mission, and the other foxes should have left a long time ago.
In fact, it didn't take long for my conjecture to be confirmed.
When I watched the blind fox lead the way for me in front, I immediately subconsciously followed, but Shao Yu saw that the blind fox was always walking in front of me, and if I didn't go, it wouldn't move, so he snorted coldly and didn't say anything.
In this way, a few of us went to the depths of the grassland under the leadership of the fox, this grassland is indeed very wide, when it was said to fall in the West Mountain, there was only a trace of the sun's afterglow left in the distant sky, we probably ran with the fox for more than half an hour, only to see the blind fox in front of us suddenly accelerated violently, three or two strokes left us all behind, after passing through a small wood, the grass under our feet grew shorter, and a huge rocky appeared in our distance, and before the rock, A tomb could be seen standing there. I saw the figure of the blind fox scurrying up to the tomb and standing up, then nodding at me again, and then running towards the rocks beside me, and in a short time disappeared.
At that time, I also knew in my heart that this was the real hometown of the fox fairy, where Qingli salvia was located, and the dragon veins and treasures were also here.
Seeing that he finally came to the right place, Shao Yu's face was in ecstasy, he didn't speak, just ran towards the tomb, and I naturally followed, and when I ran to the front of this lonely tomb, we were all out of breath, I looked at this lonely grave with my hands on my knees, this tomb is not as good as the previous mass grave, the land in front of the grave is quite correct, and even the tombstone tribute is everything, it seems that the blind fox is still taking care of this tomb.
I gasped while looking at the tombstone, this tombstone is a stone slab one meter away, because of the age, the slate was eroded by wind and rain, so it was inevitable that there was some moss, and although the top of myself was blurred, but it was not difficult to identify, I saw that the front of the stone slab was carved parallel to two lines of large characters, the same is a combination of Manchu and Chinese.
Of course, I didn't understand the Manchu script at the time, but I recognized the Chinese characters, and I saw that the handwriting engraved on the tombstone was 'The Tomb of the Sinner Qing Baturu'.
Sinner Green Baturu. These words touched my heart, indeed, such a great wizard has never been kind in his life, whether it is to his lord or to his country, but he is really a sinner, because he bears the friendship of a woman.
Maybe this is also due to the way of heaven, if you get the same, you will lose the same, this is the way to balance yin and yang.
In fact, after seeing the tomb of Qingbaturu, none of us spoke, when the sun was setting and the west wind gradually became stronger, and in the hinterland of the Great Khing'an Mountains, in front of the tomb of this legendary shaman, we could only hear the heavy gasps of the four of us and the choking of the wind.
As I calmed my breath, I looked up to see that there was a wooden stick stuck next to the tombstone in the private room, and there were many strips of cloth wrapped around it, which had long since faded and were incomplete, but I could still make out the color of it, and these strips of cloth were waving in the wind like a strange flag.
If I'm not mistaken, this should be 'Buddha', as I said before, Buddha, also known as Buddha, is the Manchu sacrifice to use things, its Manchu text is 'fodo', the Western Qing Dynasty's "Heilongjiang Waiji" has been recorded: 'Manchurian sacrifice tomb, the new tomb inserted Buddha, the old tomb inserted willow branches, all people have a later intention. The momentum of the Buddha is multi-colored, stained with five-colored strips of paper, such as flags, and the Chinese name Buddha flower. ’
The sun sets, the west wind is wild, the Saibei pasture, and the Buddha fluttering is my hometown. I sighed in my heart, it seems that the third master Hu really didn't lie to me, so I am standing here now, everything in front of me is the same as its description, and this scene, I seem to be familiar, as if I have been here.
In this way, the Buddha in front of the tomb of Qing Baturu is indeed a little weird, because in fact, the cloth is entangled, and in fact, this Buddha also has some words, according to the rules, after the sacrifice is completed, the Buddha must be taken down and burned on the spot, otherwise it will be disrespectful, but why does the Buddha in front of Qing Baturu seem to have been inserted for a long time?
I found the answer to all this behind that tombstone.
Speaking of which, after such a big setback, we finally came here, and where does Shao Yu still have the leisure and elegance to visit the tomb of Qingbaturu at this time? When I was in a daze, this Shao Yu had already begun to inquire around, he went around to the tombstone and looked at it for a long time, and then sneered, and then said hatefully: "What an old dog, I really can't imagine that you are so useless, haha, all this you set up in vain, in the end, I didn't break it?" What Qingbaturu, not the same incompetence!? ”
Speaking of this, I saw that Shao Yu turned his head to Lei Zi, who was still in a daze, and ordered: "Get ready, guys, let's go down the tunnel." ”
After hearing his boss's words, Lei Zi dared not obey, and hurriedly took out something like a shovel from his backpack, the sky had already darkened at that time, and after Lei Zi turned on the two lights, he followed Ma Tianshun and Shao Yu to the direction of the rock, obviously what was recorded behind the tombstone, so that Shao Yu already knew the entrance to the treasure cave at this time.
Thinking of this, Dao An and I also came to the tombstone, by the light of the flashlight, we could see a few rows of small words written on the tombstone, Dao An's eyes were better than mine, only to see him muttering: "To the sky, sinner Qing Baturu kowtow........................
Dao An gently read out the words recorded after the tombstone, I listened quietly next to me, the more I listened to the more sad I felt in my heart, it turned out that this tombstone was set up by Qing Batulu before his death to ask for the fox fairy, and what was recorded on it was what he wanted to leave to future generations before he died, and it was also his own confession.
As I said before, Qingbatulu has two big hateful things in his life, and the most regretful thing for him is not the wrong dragon vein, but the soul of his wife is dissipated, on this tombstone, most of the confessions are written to his wife, which is exactly what I sigh, it turns out that even a character like Qingbatulu does not understand what is his most precious thing, he has a lifetime of experience in order to repay his kindness, but it was not until he died that he realized that what he did was not what he wanted to do.
And it is precisely because of this that he criticized himself mercilessly on the tombstone, but between the lines, all revealed sad feelings, I listened to it for a while, and thought in my heart, what is life in the world for? And how many people don't know what they want?
No, I suddenly felt that in fact, Qing Batulu was also deceiving himself, how could he not know what he really cared about? Thinking about it, he was only trapped by the current situation and blamed himself, so he didn't dare to admit it subconsciously, so he caused this tragedy later.
I think the reason why Qing Batulu said this is also to convey some information to future generations, just like the words that Beichuan Dao Chang said to me when he was on the same Yin Si Street, after all, their generation has caused a tragedy due to some irresistible factors, so they hope that their descendants can fill their regrets, at least be able to truly face their hearts.
At this point, maybe I'm a lot better than him, because of course I know what is most important to me, and that's why I'm where I am today.
After this paragraph, the next handwriting is to say the entrance of the dragon vein, it turns out that the entrance of the dragon vein is in the stone pile, after this paragraph, there are a few lines of small characters, these lines of small words, is what Qing Batulu wants to say to his descendants, and it is these lines of words that make my heart extremely shocked again, because the above news is too important to me, so it is!
