Guigu Wormhole Chapter 12 Huishengzhi
After a long time, I felt a little sleepy, and I was about to close my eyes and fall asleep, when suddenly someone outside the tent whispered "Xia Nan, Xia Nan." "I was shocked, what the hell is this haunted? Listen carefully again, it seems to be the voice of the fourth master. I came out in my clothes, and sure enough, I saw the fourth master squatting outside my tent and signaling me not to make a sound. I quietly went over and asked the fourth master what was wrong. The fourth master said, "Look over there." ”
I followed his finger and looked over, and saw a small white dot in the distance, small and long, in the moonlight, as bright as day. I opened my eyes wide and looked at it carefully for a while, and it was clearly a big white fox! The fourth master said: "This white fox is not young, and he is already spiritual. What do you see it doing? ”
I quietly looked at the white fox. I saw the white fox squatting on his hind legs, his front legs together, and constantly rising and falling, like a white-haired old man kowtowing. "It's kowtowing?!" I was amazed.
"It's moon worship." The fourth master said lightly. "This beast seems to have begun to understand the Xuan Dao, and already knows the method of breathing and breathing."
I've heard of spiritual animals like foxes, snakes, rats, hedgehogs, weasels, etc., but I've always thought it was just a legend or a story. Seeing the strange movements of the white fox today, it simply subverted my three views. The fourth master said, quickly call the two of them, grab the equipment, and prepare to go.
"Go? Where to? ”
"Follow it, and this little fox will take us where we need to go." The fourth master said mysteriously.
I didn't know what he meant, so I had to wake up the scholar and Lao Xu first. They were also surprised when they saw the white fox worshipping the moon. But since the fourth master said that it can take us to where we should go, there is naturally a reason for the fourth master. We had no choice but to pack up our equipment and quietly squat on the ground with the fourth master, looking at the white fox from a distance.
After about an hour, the white fox seemed to have finished exercising, wagging its tail and spinning in place a few times. Then slowly walk into the distance. The four of us followed from a distance, not daring to make too much noise, for fear of startling the white fox. I followed it so far away, and I walked for a long time, one would go up the mountain, one would go down, one would be left and one would be right, and the scholar was so angry that he kept cursing: "Little, are you taking a walk?" Playing with the family? After leading the way for the imperial army in a while, I have to catch you and pick your skin! ”
After walking for a while, the little beast suddenly ran away. I was taken aback and said secretly: Oh no, did this little beast find us? Before we had time to think about it, the four of us let go and ran. Passing through a meadow, the beast went into the woods, and the four of us were far away, and the trees were overgrown with trees, and the view was blocked, and after a while, the white fox was gone. The four of us searched for it, but there was no trace of it, and we were too tired to do it.
Fourth Master Long said: "This white fox already has some Taoism, I originally planned to follow it to find Shengzhi. After worshipping the moon, these spiritual animals usually look for beneficial medicinal herbs such as Huisheng Zhizhi and eat them in an attempt to help them in their spiritual practice. I didn't expect to lose it. Let's look around, where it is, there must be a lot of vitality, and it is likely that there is Huishengzhi. ”
The four of us didn't dare to disperse in the woods at night, so we had to form a team to look around. searched and searched, but still didn't find any clues of Hui Shengzhi. Just as he was about to give up and return to the tent, the scholar noticed something unusual. He pointed to the distance and said, "Look over there."
I saw that on a small slope, there were several tree stumps more than one meter high, and many tree sections were scattered around it. The little white fox was standing on a stretch, looking at us from afar. In fact, if there were no white foxes in that place, it would be difficult to be spotted at night.
The four of us quickened our pace and walked over. The little beast ignored us until it came to us and disappeared behind the trees in a leap.
We looked at the stump, and sure enough, we found a lot of white mushroom caps on the back, no more than a dozen centimeters long, and even more white under the moonlight. Could this be the legendary Huishengzhi? My heart was pounding.
"Sure enough, it's Huishengzhi!" Long Siye changed his usual indifferent expression, and he was also very excited.
"Haha, give this little fox a credit, the imperial army will not forget it." The scholar laughed when he saw the white Huishengzhi.
"Why is there no little Huishengzhi? Is this thing black when it sprouts? Lao Xu pushed his glasses and observed carefully.
"Legend has it that this time it was black when it first appeared, and it only took a day and a night to fade black and turn white, and it was in a vibrant place, and it grew very fast." The fourth master explained.
Finally found the antidote to the ghost corpse powder, and the three of us didn't know how to eat it, so we all looked at the fourth master. I saw that the fourth master used his hand like a goblet, pinched the rhizome of Huishengzhi with two fingers, and then lifted it up vigorously, picked one flower, and then immediately put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.
We draw a scoop according to the gourd, and each person eats the other. This thing is very bitter in the mouth, but when you chew it slowly, it turns from bitter to sweet, and from sweet to fragrant, but it is very delicious. The scholar wanted to eat one after eating, but was pulled by the fourth master: "This time, the medicine of Shengzhi is extremely powerful, you must not eat too much, otherwise your qi and blood will go retrograde and explode and die." That white fox can only eat one flower every month of cultivation, how dare you eat two flowers at once? ”
The scholar was taken aback, and he didn't dare to make a mistake. After eating, everyone found a place to sit and rest. Originally, when I was chasing the white fox, I was tired and out of breath, and I didn't sleep well, so my body was so tired that I couldn't do it. But after eating this raw mushroom, I always feel that there is a warm current in the lower abdomen in the body that is constantly rolling upward. Warm currents rush through the body like ocean waves, and the limbs are full of strength. We were all amazed to feel the changes in our bodies. He sat there until dawn, and no one bothered to speak, nor did he feel any fatigue. When the sun rises, all the black lines on our bodies disappear. This time Shengzhi is simply a miracle medicine!
When I felt that the warm current was slowly calming down, I tried my hands and feet, and there was no discomfort except for a slight numbness. All four of them were in good spirits and looked around. It turned out to be a slope and we were at the bottom. Above the slope, there were several large trees that could not be enclosed by three people holding hands, with thick trunks and dense foliage.
Everyone decided to return to the tent first and then prepare to leave the mountain. Just as he was about to leave, he heard a squeak behind him. When we looked back, we saw that there were many foxes on the big trees above the slope, white, yellow, and red, of various colors and sizes.
"My uncle, this is stabbing the fox's den?" When the scholar saw so many foxes squeaking, he inevitably felt a little weak.
"Foxes are solitary animals, and they are only a small group at most, why are there so many of them this time? It seems that we, the uninvited guests, have snatched up the Huisheng Zhi, which makes them very dissatisfied. Lao Xu replied.
"Don't act rashly yet, see what they intend," I instructed.
The four of them faced a group of foxes, and none of them moved. The fox group on the opposite side is just confronting and watching. After a while, seeing that they did not make any further movements, the four of us exchanged glances and slowly retreated in tacit understanding. Seeing that they were about to leave this small slope, the fox pack moved! The white fox seen earlier was clearly the leader, and was obviously bigger than the other foxes. It took the lead and sprang out at once, followed by countless foxes of all sizes.
"Holy shit, not good! Run, everyone! Before the scholar could finish speaking, he had already run out with an arrow.
Don't look at this kid is short and fat, but he is agile and fast. The fourth master didn't say a word, only a few ups and downs, and he had already surpassed the scholars. As soon as I saw that the situation was going down, I couldn't be brave, so I pulled Lao Xu to turn around and run. Everyone has just finished absorbing Huishengzhi, and their physical strength is very good, as if they have endless energy. I usually run out of breath after a while, but now I only hear the wind whistling in my ears, and I don't feel tired.
But people are human beings after all, and a two-legged one must not be able to outrun a four-legged one. The sound of the pursuers behind my ears was approaching, and I couldn't help but feel a little panicked. One was not careful, he tripped over something, lost his body's center of gravity, and immediately fell out. I screamed "ah", and the three of them, Lao Xu, who was closest to me, steadied his footsteps, turned around and pulled me, and the scholar and the fourth master also wanted to return to help me. At this moment, the foxes that were running in front of them had already arrived, and they were like arrows from the string, whizzing towards them. I didn't have time to get up, so I rolled on the ground and a little red fox pounced. At this time, Lao Xu pulled me up, and we turned around and rushed to the place where the scholar and the fourth master were. They were slightly relieved to see that Lao Xu and I were fine.
But the danger has not been lifted yet, Long Siye said, running to a high place, these beasts running up are not dominant. Everyone panicked and ran away. When I got to a high place, I had to use my hands and feet together. The scholar said: "Fourth master, you are so fucking talented, do you have to let us use it on all fours?" Like them, we can't outrun others, and people who walk on four legs are experts, so we are not proficient. "We all only care about climbing, and we have the kung fu to take care of the scholars.
I looked back and saw the foxes still chasing after me. Just as he didn't know how to get out, the scholar found a cave in the heights. The hole was not small, it was very close to us, and it was really impossible for the four mermaids to get in. Lao Xu took out the windproof stove from his backpack, turned on the gas and lit it, and turned the flame to the maximum. With this little stove at the entrance of the hole, the beasts did not dare to come in, but more and more, gathered outside, and were in a hurry.
I was afraid that the gas would run out of gas, so I looked for something to burn in the cave. The entrance to the cave is small and large, in the shape of a gourd, and there is a small opening inside, which leads to a deeper space. I didn't dare to go inside, but I found some hay and dead branches outside. Then a small fire was made. The foxes outside were squatting or lying down, and they didn't leave. If it doesn't go on like this, as soon as this fire is extinguished, this group of brutes will definitely attack.
"If you really can't do it, rush out, the four of us will fight with them back to back!" I think that although there are a lot of foxes outside, after all, they are foxes and not wolves, and the four of them fight hard, and they may not be able to beat them.
"No, there are a hundred and eighty of them, and these foxes are very nimble, and it is difficult for ordinary hounds to deal with one. They are also very intelligent and human, I once read a report that the fox saw a duck in the river, and would deliberately throw some grass into the water, and when the duck got used to it, it would sneak into the water with a large handful of dead grass as a cover, and wait for the opportunity to hunt. It's hard for us to take advantage of going out like this. "Lao Xu rejected my suggestion.
"Ya, I don't know where to provoke these beasts, didn't I eat a few Huisheng Zhi? That's too stingy! The scholar shook his head and said.
"They don't care about the mushrooms we eat." The fourth master said faintly, "What they care about is that we bumped into the white fox practicing, and found the specific location of Huishengzhi's existence." They are afraid that we will tell the others, so they have to stop us from leaving anyway. ”
