Chapter 168: Show off your skills

We walked along this road all the way, time was pressing, our pace was relatively fast, and Su Xi and I were a little tired. I didn't have the heart to speak when I read the full text of the latest chapter, and Liu Jin was chatting with Zhiyuan all the way, Zhiyuan's attention was mainly on the front of the road, and he would answer him a few words from time to time.

After walking for about half an hour, we came to the fork in the road that the uncle said, and we turned right into a small road in the direction he pointed.

The trail was much narrower and more potholed than the previous one, so we had to slow down. However, the road ahead is relatively close to the town, and there should still be people walking, and there are no weeds and branches.

Entering the path, there is no way to walk side by side, the four of us, Liu Jin is a policeman, he is relatively agile, and he volunteered to walk in front. followed by Su Xi, followed by me, Zhiyuan asked to walk last.

After walking for about half an hour, we saw several families on both sides of the road, all of which were the first adobe houses that were popular in the countryside.

By this time, the path was no longer so easy to walk, and there were branches sticking out from both sides from time to time, Liu Jin broke a relatively straight branch and waved it all the way to open the way for us. It also has some effect.

Walking and walking. The weeds on both sides of the road were half a man high, and the branches of the shrubs were intertwined, which really made the road ahead a little difficult to see. At this time, Liu Jin had already thrown away the branches, held a sharp police dagger in his hand, and followed the direction of the previous path, cutting through thorns and thorns all the way, and forcibly opened up a road.

After walking for a while, Zhiyuan asked everyone to rest and eat something to replenish their energy, and at this time, I saw that Liu Jin's face was cut by two branches.

"I'll go ahead later." I said to him.

"Forget it, you haven't used this dagger before. If you open the road in front, the efficiency must be very low, and it will affect our hurry. Liu Jin said a reason that I couldn't refuse.

Su Xi looked at the bushes in front of him and asked with some concern, "Do you think the uncle will show us the wrong way?" ”

"No, I think Hidden Jade Village should be a more mysterious place, not something that can be entered casually, the more difficult this road is, the more it proves that our direction is right." He Zhiyuan replied calmly. Estimated to be rubbish.

I also agree with Zhiyuan's opinion, and Qiluan Mountain is very high, and we can see its peaks. You can't go wrong with staring all the way.

At this time, I saw that Su Xi's face was a little flushed, and his breathing was a little heavy. After all, she is a girl, and she must not be compared with a few of us big men in terms of body, I borrowed Liu Jin's dagger, cut off a branch from the big tree next to her, cut off the small branches on both sides, and then handed it to her, let her use it as a crutch, so that it can save a little effort.

Su Xi took the branch and smiled gratefully at me. [A lot of good novels]

After resting for five minutes, we continued to set off, and after a long journey, we finally came to the foot of Qiluan Mountain.

Walking out of the path, the sight suddenly opened up a lot, we stood in the open space at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the Qiluan Mountain in front of us, it is lush with trees, layers of mountains and green, the mountainside is full of clouds and mist, quite a bit of the taste of fairyland on earth. Several of us were fascinated by it for a while.

"Let's go, time is running out." It was Zhiyuan who reminded us.

Indeed, seeing that it was getting dark, it would be too dangerous to climb the mountain after dark, so we had to reach the mountainside before dark, wait at the mountainside, and wait until the clouds cleared before entering the woods and heading to Yinyu Village.

After listening to Zhiyuan's words, we didn't hesitate any longer, and endured exhaustion and walked up the mountain.

We walked along the foot of the mountain for a while, and finally found a path up the mountain, although this road is steeper, it is much better than the previous road overgrown with shrubs and weeds.

Standing on the mountainside, a dense forest appeared in front of me, and the way up the mountain was interrupted here.

The forest was filled with smoke, and it was from here that the smoke we had just seen at the foot of the mountain had risen. I looked up and saw that the top of Mount Qiluan was at the top of the slope of this forest, and it seemed that if you wanted to reach the top of Mount Qiluan, you had to pass through the forest.

Wu Bing said that there was a five-element formation in the forest, and ordinary people couldn't get out, and I didn't know if anyone had been trapped and died in this forest before. With this thought, when I looked at it again, I felt that the forest had a strange feeling.

The fog did not disperse, and before the time came, we found an open space to rest, and Liu Jin found some branches nearby and lit a fire. After the fire was lit, Zhiyuan said that he would sit and let us leave him alone. The rest of us gathered around the fire, ate something, and drank some water.

At this time, the night had fallen, and the air around me was cool, and I looked into the forest, and it was dark, only the leaves rustled in the breeze, which showed the depth and mystery of the forest.

In order to relieve the tension, we chatted one after another.

"Su Po is really a god, she gave you the key a long time ago, and told you to bring it with you, it seems that she expected it to be today." Liu Jin opened the topic.

"The master has said that it is fate, maybe he has predicted the current situation as early as after Su Po and their defeat back then." I replied to him.

Liu Jin thought for a while after hearing this, and immediately said: "No, there should be another generation behind Su Po, that is, Su Xi's mother, but Su Xi's mother is gone......

When I heard this, I quickly glared at Liu Jin, and he also realized the problem in his words and immediately shut up.

"I really hope that this time we can be a little smoother, too many people have already left......" Su Xi didn't mind Liu Jin's gaffe just now, but remembered Gu An'an and them who had an accident before.

"It's okay, although the master said that this trip is dangerous, he also mentioned it in your house, and when we return from Hidden Jade Village, he will tell us something. That being the case, I believe he should have calculated that we would be able to return safely from evil to good. I comforted Su Xi.

"That's right, if you come, you will be safe, not to mention that we still have ambitions, it seems that the master has taught him a lot." Liu Jin also echoed on the side.

At this time, I glanced at Zhiyuan, who was meditating next to him, his eyes were closed, his hands were folded, his expression was calm and serene, at this moment I felt that he was no longer the honest and honest Zhiyuan I usually saw, but more like a master of Taoism.

Seeing Zhiyuan's appearance, despite the cold wind at this time, I also felt a warmth and calmness in my heart.

After chatting for a while, it was past nine o'clock in the evening, because everyone felt a little sleepy after a day's journey, so I asked them all to take a nap, and I came to keep watch.

"Zhou Bing, you can sleep too, I'll keep watch." After listening to my words, Zhiyuan spoke up.

I looked over, but his eyes didn't open, and I asked with some confusion, "Can you still be distracted by meditation?" ”

"It's okay, when I meditate, my perception is stronger." He said to me with his eyes still closed.

After listening to Zhiyuan's words, I thought that I might encounter something at night, and it was very necessary to recover my body, so I didn't be polite to him, and found a dry place by the firewood to lie down.

After sleeping for a while, I suddenly heard a lot of people shouting around me, and the sound sounded very strange, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it as a ghost crying wolf. I woke up suddenly, and when I woke up, a cold wind blew, and I was shaken.

I looked warily and saw that Zhiyuan had already stood up, facing the woods. Liu Jin and Su Xi hadn't woken up yet, I looked at the time, it was just eleven o'clock.

At this time, there was only the sound of the cold wind in my ears, and I couldn't help but wonder, where did that strange sound come from? Is it really a ghost crying?

I walked to Zhiyuan's side and stood side by side with him, but then I saw a figure seven or eight meters in front of me, squatting on the ground with his back to us, I frowned and asked, "Who is that person?" ”

"Not people." Zhiyuan said lightly.

I was shocked by this, I wasn't afraid of the ghost, but I didn't expect that we would hit the ghost just after the hour.

"You wait here, I'll go over and take a look." After Zhiyuan finished speaking, he walked towards the ghost.

I wanted to go with him, but I remembered that Su Xi and Liu Jin were still behind, so I had to give up. I turned sideways, so that I could not only see Su and Liu, but also observe the situation on Zhiyuan's side.

When Zhiyuan walked towards the ghost, the ghost figure did not move, because it was a little far away from the fire, and I could not see the specific characteristics of the person clearly, only an outline.

Zhiyuan walked behind him, and then I saw him make a movement, and he poked his head out and looked forward. I understood what he meant, he wanted to see what the ghost was doing there, but his movements reminded me of when I was squatting on the ground and flipping the floor tiles in the courtyard of the Thirteenth House, Lin Yu looked at me like this behind my back, and now when I look at Zhiyuan, I think his movements are weird.

After looking at it for a while, Zhiyuan retracted his head and turned to walk towards me.

When I approached him, I asked him what was going on. He replied, "The man is in the wilderness and wants to bury his bones in it, and I will help him." ”

After saying that, Zhiyuan walked to Liu Jin's side, woke up Liu Jin, borrowed his dagger, and then walked back to the ghost, dug on the ground with the dagger for a while, and then picked up a few pieces of white things from the ghost, and then buried them all in the pit he dug.

When Zhiyuan did this, the ghost turned to look at him, and after Zhiyuan filled the hole, the ghost slowly disappeared into the mud.

Liu Jin walked up to me and asked me what Zhiyuan was doing there, I asked him if he had seen a figure next to Zhiyuan just now, he shook his head and said no, he saw Zhiyuan digging there for a while, and then buried something in it.

"He's burying ghosts." Listening to Liu Jin, I couldn't see a ghost, so I sued him directly.

"Ghosts can also be buried?" I came here to be mentally prepared, and when I heard me mention "ghost" at this time, Liu Jin was not surprised, but confused.

I repeated what Zhiyuan said just now, and Liu Jin suddenly realized. At this time, Zhiyuan had already walked back, and I asked him if the ghost had said anything to him.

"I helped him with his wish, and he advised us not to go into the woods." Zhiyuan replied to me.

"Why are you so powerful all of a sudden, not only can you see ghosts, but you can also communicate with ghosts?" Liu Jin was even more surprised.

"If you copy more scriptures, your perception will be sharper, and you will naturally be able to see some things that ordinary people can't see, and your mind will be broader, and you can receive the demands of some spiritual things." Zhiyuan replied to him.

Zhiyuan explained very simply, I understood it as soon as I heard it, but I understood that it was not so easy to really achieve this level, he could have such a cultivation in a short period of time, and in the absence of a master, this Buddha fate was really big, and it was no wonder that Wu Bing favored him.

"Did he say there was any danger in the woods?" I asked.

Zhiyuan shook his head.

Of course, we know that there is danger in the woods, and we can't stop going in because of a word from a ghost. Now that the time has come, I stepped forward to wake up Su Xi and asked everyone to prepare.

When I was ready, I looked at the woods, and although it was still pitch black, the lingering fog was almost gone.

Jin Lin Zizhiyuan is the protagonist, so I asked him if he could go.

"Wait, there's one more thing to do."

Zhiyuan said, took something out of the cloth bag that Master Wu Bing gave him, I looked over, it was a small brown gourd, the small gourd was only half the size of the palm of the hand, under the reflection of the firelight, I saw that there seemed to be a pattern painted on it.
