Chapter 7: The Monk Who Wakes Up Wants to Fight
"Hell, are we all dead?" said Bing Lin, looking at the Taoist priest in surprise.
"No! No way! My good life has just begun, how can I hell!"
Hu Zi pointed to Lao Feng, who was wrapped in a robe and placed on the ground, and said, "Didn't you say that this baby was born here?
Beard frantically grabbed his hair and paced back and forth and said, "We're definitely not in hell, we're all still alive, we're just being caught on an island, what human experiments might we do? It must be some human experiments! Or reality TV..."
Beard has been incoherent in various speculations.
"However, there are so many things that can't be explained," Bing Lin paused and continued: "For example, Master Aurora's Buddha beads, as well as his clothes, you see that yesterday was still dirty, and today it is the same as new." ”
"That's when he went out in the middle of the night to change, maybe one of you is an accomplice of that group, it's an undercover agent!"
"Also, what we see and hear may be the effect of some kind of drug. You gave me all the food I ate. So I don't believe you!!"
"However, Master Aurora's robe was also dirty before, and he kept holding the baby in my arms, you see. ”
Bing Lin hugged the baby and said, "It's also very clean, like new, but I promise that the robe has never left my hand." ”
If this is hell, then what? compared to the previous life of the same life, where parents never looked at themselves squarely and never dared to speak out loud. What's so bad here.
Bing Lin wanted to convince the man.
But this man is already on the verge of collapse!
"I've worked hard for so many years, do you know how much effort I've put in to get to where I am today? I'm finally going to live a life once and for all! I can't die! I can't!!"
The bearded man rushed out of the hollow of the tree like crazy.
"Boom!"
As soon as the bearded foot stepped out of the tree hole, a big bird covered in blood fell from above! One and only foot of the big bird was pinching the bearded man's body, and the bearded man's life and death were uncertain.
None of the people in the tree hole dared to act rashly, and the big bird looked back at everyone leisurely, its head like a crane, its crown like a flame, flying in the wind!
The big bird intimidated everyone with his eyes, like looking at a little lamb waiting to be slaughtered. However, there is only one foot, and only one can be caught.
The tree hole was instantly tightly covered by feathers, and all you could see was the blue feathers under the wings of the big bird, and the roots were like the tips of spears.
"What the hell is this!" the monk said in a hoarse voice.
The big bird had just flown not far away, and fell heavily to the ground, and then stood up with great difficulty, looked back at everyone vigilantly, and flew forward again.
Binglin came back to her senses and shouted, "The bearded man has been captured!!"
The monk chased after him when he raised his feet, and was pulled by the Taoist priest!
"You don't even know what that thing is, just chase it, buy one get one free?" said the Taoist priest.
"Seeing death and not saving is not the style of poor monks!"
"Then we have to find out the situation before chasing," the Taoist priest picked up a big bird's feather from the ground and said, "This monster is called 'Bi Fang'!"
"White mouth, red stripes, blue body, mouth spitting fire, the ancestor of our faction, the mount in the portrait is this Bi Fang. ”
"You just say the weakness!"
"Weakness?" the Taoist priest thought for a while: "I don't know, I only know that this kind of strange beast has long been extinct, and the ancestors of our sect are all legends from three hundred years ago, why do you think we can save the beard?"
With strength! Obviously, it is to die.
"This Bi Fang was covered in blood, unable to move, and obviously seriously injured. Let's catch up, wait for work, and give him a fatal blow!" said the monk confidently.
The Taoist priest snorted coldly and said, "Don't think that you are an Arhat with a copper head and an iron arm after reciting the scriptures all night. Even if he is seriously injured, our bare hands will not be enough for him to have a barbecue. ”
"What's more, legend has it that Bi Fang appeared in pairs. ”
Bing Lin patted her head and said: "I remember, I have seen lamps of this shape in the museum, and the candles used to put candles in the court in ancient times were shaped like Bi Fang, which were in pairs." ”
The Aurora monk looked around vigilantly, for fear that another one would suddenly appear and he would become a bearded man.
"Then you wait here, I'll chase after me, I always feel that the beard is not dead. The monk was determined to chase after him.
The Taoist priest looked at Binglin and said, "Binglin, you can stay, but it will only be more dangerous for you to stay." ”
"To go together, to die... Phew, we want to live together!" Bing Lin looked at the baby in her arms with a sad face and said, "Old Feng, do you say yes!"
Lao Feng, ah, two laughs innocent!
The Taoist priest nodded: "Since Lao Feng is not afraid, let's go together." ”
Does he know what it means to be afraid?
Following the blood stains tirelessly chasing all the way, the three Taoist priests gradually walked out of the jungle and walked towards the mountain road that was getting higher and higher. The endless old woods behind him undulated with the wind, as if waving goodbye, I don't know how many times I stopped, and in front of me was replaced by a winding valley.
I saw that there was a stone tablet covered with moss at the mouth of the valley, and the word 'Langgu' was faintly written on it. The road to the valley stretched all the way, hidden in the mist, and I didn't know where it went.
"The jungle behind us is like a continuous grassland, and this valley is like a giant python with a big mouth open, but I am afraid that we will go in like a sheep entering the mouth of a snake, and there is no return. The Taoist priest analyzed the current situation in a flat tone.
"That Lao Tzu is also a bowhorned antelope, if you want to swallow me, I will break his belly!"
Bing Lin was not as confident as the monk, and asked, "If this is really hell, if the bearded man dies, will he die completely?"
Bing Lin realized that what she said was inappropriate, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean to curse him, I just felt that if this was the case, this child would be quite pitiful." He had just been born. ”
Binglin has been getting along with the baby every day these days, and the baby has gradually smiled innocently at her most of the time except for sleep, which is also the only thing that can resolve Binglin's inner pressure in countless strange things in the past few days.
It even made her feel that she had suddenly become important, that at least someone needed her, needed her care and protection to continue to survive.
"In Taoism, after death, only the earth soul returns to hell, arguing cause and effect, several of us are all three souls and seven spirits, it should be said that we are still human beings, but we may be in hell or other special spaces. So, we find the bearded man with three results, one is the badly injured beard, one is his soul and corpse, and the other..."
The Taoist priest thought about it and was reluctant to continue, and seemed to be unsure of the third possibility.
"It's been almost a day, so let's keep going. Late will change. The monk said.
The Taoist priest nodded, took Binglin, and walked into the valley.
Originally, the valley was only a hill-sized mountain, but the further you went, the higher and higher the mountain became, and after more than an hour, the mountain was no longer visible.
As the terrain elevated, the surrounding area began to be filled with mist.
"I hope my guess is wrong, you see here, there are mountains, clouds, flowing water, and it is not the same thing as the legendary hell. The monk said.
"The legend is not necessarily false, for example, it was a living Bi Fang! The legend may not be true, at least none of us have ever been to hell. ”
The monk's face was displeased: "Dao Chief! Can't you just say something nice?"
Bing Lin looked at the Taoist priest and nodded.
"Good news. ”
"What's the good news?"
"Have you ever heard of the saying 'Yin soldiers pass the test, and the living close their eyes'?"
Bing Lin shook her head, and the monk continued: "Why does it sound so much like 'Xiangxi chases corpses, and the living avoid them'?"
The Taoist priest waved his hand and said, "The meaning is almost the same, I improvised and changed it." ”
"Last night we listened to the noise of the traffic all night, but we didn't see anyone, I think we couldn't see anything every night, not everything disappeared, but we closed our eyes. ”
Bing Lin was puzzled and said, "I can't see anything when I open my eyes." ”
"What the Taoist means is not that we really close our eyes, but that there is some kind of power that blindfolds us, and in the dark of night, we are like being isolated. ”
"Yes, but now we can see. Is that good news?"
The monk looked around, and after thinking about it, the group chased along the traces all the way all day, at this time it was already night, and it should have been the time to be blind, but within three feet of the feet, the grass and trees were hazy and visible.
The monk nodded and said, "Here, it's good news, at least I'm not blind at night." ”
After rushing for a while, Binglin's face gradually became embarrassed, and everyone found a sheltered place to sit under a crooked-necked tree to rest.
"What's wrong? The Taoist priest asked.
Bing Lin replied with a painful face: "My feet hurt so much, my whole body hurts... The old Feng is getting heavier and heavier, and I can't hold it anymore. ”
The Taoist priest hesitated, stretched out his hand and took it back, and said, "Monk, hold it for a while, it's really hard to hold it for so long." ”
After the Taoist priest finished speaking, he picked up some stones from the ground, intentionally or unintentionally, and left, piling them up in twos and threes not far away.
"Isn't there a robe, and if you're tired of hugging it, isn't it the same if you tie it behind you?" The monk didn't want to hold the baby, if he wanted to, he would have taken it a long time ago, but he still stretched out his hand.
Bing Lin hesitated for a moment, gently handed the child to the monk, and said, "Then what's the matter, he has only been born for a few days." If you don't have a good posture, it will affect his development!"
The monk smiled and said, "Does he look like he was just a few days old?"
It's not like it, people believe it for 2 months.
The monk carefully held the baby, looked at it carefully for a moment, and then said, "He sucked the essence of two maple trees, and now he should have been digesting it to grow so fast." ”
The baby stared at the monk's bald head, which was still shining in the night, full of curiosity.
Bing Lin kept shaking her arms and said, "I really can't hold it anymore, if it grows so fast tomorrow, then I can only carry him on my back." ”
"Maybe you'll be able to take him with you tomorrow. The Taoist priest came back and said lightly.
At this time, the valley is shrouded in mist, and occasionally some birds chirp, changing the dark and oppressive atmosphere before.
"I think we've been tricked, we've been following us for so long, and we haven't even seen a ghost!" said the monk, patting his robe.
"I planted this tree, I opened this road, if you want to fight here, leave it to buy road money!"
A man's shout suddenly appeared behind him, and the monk stood up, only to see two men standing in the mist, and he couldn't see his face clearly.
"And the woman!"
"That's right, what is useful will be kept. ”
When I turned around again, two more men appeared in front of me, blocking the road in front of and behind.
