The old man looks ordinary, and he is not very gorgeous, there are two shallow vertical ravines under his eyes, and his hands and feet are rough.

But the Supreme Treasure is not, he has clearly seen the old man's three fires Qingqi, the divine horse is ethereal, naturally he will not underestimate it, seeing the old man asking, he stepped forward to salute, and said: "Hello grandpa." Well, I don't know what you mean when you said 'good'? ”

The old man walked with his hands on his back, and said hahadaxiao: "Don't be afraid of sneaky demons, move forward bravely, this is brave; I don't know how to use magic to refer to it, and I look for other methods, this is wisdom, there are these two, that is, it is very good... is so brave and resourceful and not afraid of ghosts, I'm afraid that he is also a child of our onmyoji, right? He squinted his slit-like eyes, and his expression flickered inwardly, "But I can't see what sect or sect you are." ”

These words sounded like talking to himself, but his eyes were firmly fixed on the Supreme Treasure, and he clearly wanted an explanation-the Supreme Treasure had already been impressed when he saw the old man's ability, and was about to answer to explain the reason in detail, when he suddenly felt an indescribable depression in his heart, and his heart moved at that time, so he pretended to be stupid: "What did you say, old man?" I don't understand. ”

"Oh?" The old man said curiously: "Then the palm thunder you just gestured with your fingers and waved out, wasn't it learned?" ”

"This one!" The Supreme Treasure immediately made a gesture and suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "I learned it from an old Taoist priest when I was at home before-he said, but if there are demons and monsters, I will draw them like this." You can throw it back, you see, isn't it? ”

Having said that, I already knew in my heart: it turned out that this old man had been hiding by and watching me and that sneaky trick, and I didn't know how long I had been here or how much I had seen...

The old man saw that the Supreme Treasure was reluctant to say it, and he didn't force it, so he smiled and nodded: "I see, but I would be wrong-child, I will accept this evil today." It is not convenient to stay here for a long time. Shall you and I leave together? ”

The Supreme Treasure didn't know where the strange thought that arose in his heart came from, but when he thought about it carefully, the old man had no other movement than to spy on himself, and he had never taken any action to harm himself. Plus look at his form and god. Radiant. also has a heart of intimacy, but he does not refuse this in his heart, so he immediately nodded and smiled:

"Good! Grandpa, you go there. I could have gone with you. ”

The idea is that if you go somewhere else, it's fine, if you happen to be in the hundred ghosts, you can just inquire about the origin, if it doesn't hurt, it's not bad to worship him as a teacher... It's easy to think about here.

The old man saw that the Supreme Treasure did not refuse, so he took him back to the inn with him, first collected all the heads on the human head pile beside the rotting corpse pool, and then the filthy utensils in the cellar, the corpses and dry bones, lit the incense around them, piled up the red furnace fire, and chanted the mantra of the transcendent soul in his mouth--in the flames, but saw countless ghosts rising to the sky, freeing themselves from the shackles and shackles, and wandering leisurely to the place of the reincarnation pool, the Santu River, and the six realms and three lives.

Zuihou set fire to the inn in the desert, burying everything without a trace, leaving only the broken walls in the wind with the nightingale's relatives, the jackdaws screaming and peaceful, and the rest were gone.

This fire burned so that the heart of the Supreme Treasure was also open, and together with the old man, he went to the north hand in hand.

At the end of the abandoned official road is the ancient city of Xianyang, the direction of the two is the same, but they are really on the road together, talking and laughing between walking, and they are not lonely. This walk is a whole night, until the next day the color is bright to find a stream to rest a little, seeing that the Supreme Treasure is hungry, the old man from the bag to find the bread and distribute to the Supreme Treasure, he does not refuse, one person half swallowed the mountain and water, can be mixed and half full.

Seeing that there was no food in the baggage, the Supreme Treasure apologized slightly: "Grandpa, I'm really sorry to finish your bread... Well, there's nowhere to eat on the road, and when you get to the market, I'll invite you to drink wine and eat meat! ”

The old man hahadaxiao: "You can't get a penny, why do you invite me to drink wine and eat meat?" ”

Seeing the old man teasing, the Supreme Treasure was unconvinced, and suddenly thought of the juggling he saw in Huangliang Town that day, so he argued: "How can I have no money?" When I arrived at the market, I went to perform tricks, and I was afraid that no one would reward a few big boys? - Even if I don't eat it myself, I have to buy meat first, so I'll ask you back. ”

"Oh? Please me first? That's fine, haha! The old man suddenly smiled, "Then I'll wait, just don't break your word." ”

Seeing that the old man agreed, the Supreme Treasure suddenly felt proud, and replied repeatedly: "Okay, let's talk about it..."

As he was talking, he suddenly saw something passing through the grass, and the grass was wriggling, and the two of them looked together, but it was a huge mountain mouse probing there, and the Supreme Bao said: "It's just right!" Old man, you don't have to wait until the market, I'll catch this mountain mouse now, peel off half a pound of fat, and invite you to roast it at night. ”

As he spoke, he found a sharp stone on the ground, searched for it, and threw it at the rat, crying out in his mouth: "Go! With that sound, the stone was instantly in front of the mouse!

Seeing that the rat was about to fall in response, who expected it to suddenly become short, and shrank into the ground with a swish, and the sharp stone struck the ground, only to stir up a trace of dust in the air.

The Supreme Treasure was unhappy in his heart, and ran over in a few steps, only then did he see that there was a round hole there, and it looked like the entrance to this rat hole, and the mountain rat burrowed into the ground, naturally he couldn't think - he kicked a few feet in the rat hole, and said fiercely: "Count yourself lucky!" ”

Turning his face to see the smiling appearance of the old man, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, coughed and said, "Grandpa, my hands are too stupid, and dinner has not landed!" ”

The old man saw that he was angry, and couldn't help but sigh with relief: "It's okay, it's okay, if you don't work this time, aren't you afraid that there will be a next time?" Next time, if you pay attention and be more accurate, won't that be it? ”

The Supreme Treasure nodded: "Alas! This is also because I was too careless to notice that the mountain mouse was so cunning, and I thought that when I went to catch the mountain mouse that day..."I suddenly remembered the days when the old man took the mouse hunt in August, and the two of them ran on the hillside. One chased, one blocked, and the mountain rat turned into the wooden box that was placed diagonally in August, and pulled the rope to be right - but unfortunately the Supreme Treasure is still there, but August doesn't know where it went...

He was a little sentimental in his heart, and his face couldn't help but show a trace of sadness, and the old man saw that his face was wrong, so he asked, "What, I remembered the sad thing again?" ”

"I remembered my grandfather..."The Supreme Treasure sighed twice, and was diverting the topic. I suddenly thought of the method I had taught in August. Suddenly he had an idea—he told the old man to wait where he was, and he found a stick, and drew a circle around the place of the rat's den, ten paces away. Then I found eight dots on the circle. A deep poke hole. About half a foot deep.

Then he went to find some large leaves, and poured the stream into the hole in turn, and saw how long it would take for the water to penetrate the earth completely—and sure enough. In one of the holes, the water vanished in a moment, falling rapidly.

The Supreme Treasure immediately used the wooden stick to dig up on the muddy ground, the old man didn't know what it meant, secretly surprised, so he looked at it on the side, and after a while, he only heard a cheer from the Supreme Treasure, and took out the boss with a handful of longevity fruits in his hand!

Not only that, but then he took out a few sweet potato buds, sweet potatoes, yams, wild fruits, walnuts... He excitedly took off his clothes and wrapped a large bundle of them, and said with a smile: "Haha, although I have lost that half a pound of fat, I have found its nest - is this not enough for us to eat for a few days?" ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, rejoicing.

Since the Supreme Treasure has found so much food, the two of them naturally set up a wildfire to roast food in the evening, and halfway through eating, the Supreme Treasure sighed: "Today I have no wine and meat here, only sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes, I can't count them, and I still have to invite you to eat meat and wine when I get to the place..." The old man suddenly smiled, waved his hand, and said, "Since you have found food today, I will naturally have something to come up with—you wait a moment, and I will also bring something to help you with it." ”

The old man stretched out his hand and untied his belt, took out the incense stick in each hand, lit it, and then broke off the incense stick and wrapped it in his belt, and threw it into the grass. Suddenly, he saw the grass moving slowly, like a long thing walking in it, the Supreme Treasure was puzzled in his heart, and wanted to watch secretly, the old man smiled and waved his hand: "Be patient, you will know in a moment!" ”

After that, he walked back, lit a half of the incense head with a fire knife flint again, inserted it in front of him, turned his toes, drew a circle on the ground to cover it, and then drew a lot of flying dragon and phoenix-like handwriting with a few strokes on his toes, and he couldn't understand it.

Seeing that the word was scribbled, but there was some familiar feeling between the arrangements, the Supreme Treasure was puzzled in his heart, and wanted to ask questions, but remembered that he had said that he didn't know how to use magic, and he had no way to think, so he had to sit down by the fire and put his thoughts into his stomach.

Something happened in his heart, and the food lost its sweetness at the beginning, and finally when he heard the sound of the rope in the grass, he immediately got up and watched-the grass sounded for a while, and suddenly there was a loud noise inside, and suddenly a thigh-thick long worm burst out!

The Supreme Treasure is horrified! He immediately got up and stepped back, and said urgently: "Old man, long worm!" Long worms! Come on! ”

The old man didn't move when he heard the voice, he just let out a loud voice, and said: "Don't panic, this is a domestic long worm, it won't hurt people-you don't have to be impatient, I know by myself." ”

As he spoke, the worm had arrived in front of him, and he really didn't hurt him, but just circled around the circle drawn on the ground, and made a pile the size of a water mill disc, and raised his head to the core of the earth, and sneered.

The Supreme Treasure was a little relieved, and he didn't get closer, just to see how the old man moved-just to see the old man stretch out his hand and pat it lightly on the snake's head, and shouted in his mouth: "Qiankun transforms into shape, and the shadow is far away, but there are five elements, each in its own place!" ”

The long worm moved when it heard the sound, opened its bloody mouth, and bit the incense head on the ground!

This mouthful came so big, I took the whole incense in my mouth, but I didn't see the incense extinguished at all, but it was like a whirlpool that sucked all the long worms into the fire, and for a while the smoke rose up, and it was impossible to see in the haze.

The smoke disappeared in the middle of the sound, and the Supreme Treasure looked again, where there were any long insects in the field, only the old man was empty, but when he saw him sitting cross-legged on the ground, there was still the broken belt in front of him, and there were several wine jugs with children's arms piled up next to him.

There are clear words on the wine jug: Changbai Shengfen. (To be continued......)
