Chapter 19: Ghosts

With his slender tail raised high, Ning Hao lay on the ground, looking suspiciously at the body of a mouse once again.

Looking at the low doorway behind him, Ning Hao shook his head strangely, almost thinking that everything that had just happened was a dream in the blink of an eye.

It's just that the cool energy in the body reminds the truth of all this all the time, and the exercises in my mind are clear and memorable, and I have just experienced a magical encounter.

Ning Hao tried to operate his mind again, and the whole person instantly sank into a state of forgetting about things and me, and wisps of subtle unknown energy drilled into the fur and became part of the trickle of energy in his body.

Everything seemed to be fine, Ning Hao didn't quite understand why he had turned back into a mouse in such a short period of time.

A gust of wind blew, and Ning Hao trembled inexplicably. Under normal circumstances, the entire cave is impermeable, and this cool breeze seems to be born on the ground, which is inexplicably weird.

A figure appeared in front of the mouse, and the first time he saw this figure, Ning Hao was so frightened that he ran to the other end of the hall screaming.

If it was an ordinary figure, it would be easy to say, but this figure was three feet above the ground, and he could see the wall behind him through this body.

As the mouse screamed and ran, the phantom also floated with the mouse.

Covered in a white robe and covered with long black hair, the figure floated in the air and whispered, "Stop, stop." ”

Ning Hao heard the phantom actually speak, and he didn't dare to stop, and ran out of the cave directly.

In fact, even if the golden giant elephant stood in front of Ning Hao at this moment, he might not even have the courage to confront him.

It's just that for this kind of white-clothed female ghost with long hair fluttering, Ning Hao really has fear from the bottom of his heart.

This fear came from a ghost movie he watched when he was very young, and the female ghost in the film was once the worst nightmare of Ning Hao's entire childhood.

Violent tremors came from the ground, and at some point, the battlefield of the giant beast seemed to have shifted back.

The original hole collapsed under this strong vibration and was blocked into a dead end, Ning Hao looked at the blocked passage, and felt a little collapsed.

"If you can't walk, dig it!" Ning Hao, who was desperate, dug towards the clogged soil, his limbs moving rapidly, and he really dug out a passage that allowed him to get out.

The ghost reappeared, and the illusory figure seemed to be unaffected by the dirt and rubble, and could move freely.

The ghost floated in front of Ning Hao, stared at Ning Hao for a long time, and suddenly said, "Sure enough, it is impermanence. ”

If the ghost said something else, Ning Hao would not pay attention to him, but at this moment, the phrase "creation impermanence" was said, which reminded Ning Hao of the adventure that had just happened.

The ghost didn't notice Ning Hao's doubtful and frightened look, and said to himself: "I didn't expect that the person who finally got this exercise was actually a little mouse, or a mortal creature who hadn't even awakened the true spirit, hahahaha, I couldn't think of it, I couldn't think of it!"

The ghost couldn't help but sigh and shake his head at times, but Ning Hao gradually put his mind at ease and retreated back along the passage he had dug out.

The ghost seemed to be saying something about his cultivation, and Ning Hao gradually had a guess in his heart, but he didn't dare to be sure.

The rat retreated into the cave hall, and after a long time, the ghost slowly "came out" of the dirt, with long hair in two, and it was actually a man.

"Man, then why do you have such long hair!" Ning Hao saw that this was actually a "male ghost", and his hanging heart was put down again.

If it is a "male ghost" and not a "female ghost", then it is not worth being afraid of, in Ning Hao's logic, these two are completely different things.

This male ghost came to Ning Hao and wanted to speak again, but Ning Hao opened his mouth first: "Who are you!"

When these words came out, both of them were taken aback. For Ning Hao, although the inner complaints are going on in his brain all the time, as a mouse with normal physiological structure, it has always been his regret that he can't speak like a human.

Today's sentence "Who are you" suddenly came out of his mouth, startling Ning Hao, and a joy rose from his heart, and he could finally speak normally.

"Why are you able to speak?" The ghost looked at Ning Hao in surprise, his expression full of disbelief, "You haven't even awakened your true spirit, you can't change your human form, how can you speak!"

The ghost seemed to be asking Ning Hao, but between the words, it seemed to be talking to himself, and there was no way to figure out this matter.

Ning Hao suddenly remembered that he had just become a human, and it seemed that his body had undergone some changes at that time that he didn't know about.

Ning Hao looked at the frowning ghost in front of him, only to see that this person was in his thirties, with a pair of slanted eyebrows and sideburns, and his demeanor was self-reliant, even if he had seen so much little fresh meat in his previous life, Ning Hao couldn't help but say that this "ghost" was really good.

Ning Hao hates men who look better than himself the most

He looked at the man and said, "How do you know that I am a simple mouse, and what do you know about this exercise?" ”

Hearing Ning Hao's speech, the ghost seemed to suddenly realize, only to see him salute Ning Hao deeply, and said: "It turned out that it was a master in front, and he was clumsy in his eyes, and he didn't see through the identity of the master, which was really abrupt." ”

Ning Hao was uncomfortable when he said this, but he could only put up a "master" shelf, staring at the ghost without saying a word.

The ghost smiled slightly, and said, "My identity, you also saw just now, that pile of white bones is my body. ”

Speaking of himself, the ghost sighed and sighed: "For this book of Impermanence Heart Sutra, there has been a great turmoil in the world, countless sects and families have died in this turmoil, and in the end, only 18 of us have broken here!"

"Eighteen?" Ning Hao couldn't help but look around when he heard this, trying to spot the other ghosts.

The man's expression was complicated, and he continued: "Do you know, how much did we pay in order to be able to find this scripture, we have a hundred brothers, and in the end there are only eighteen left. Over the years, I have often asked myself whether it is worth it for the sake of an illusory scripture. ”

"Hundreds of brothers, your family is really capable of giving birth... Eh, it's really a thriving person!" Ning Hao couldn't help but start complaining again, but suddenly realized that there was a "person" in front of him who could talk to him, and quickly corrected it.

The man laughed at himself and said to Ning Hao: "Yes, the people are prosperous! Ning's Baijie is unparalleled in the world! It's a pity that the limelight is too strong, and the Tianjiao of all sects can't raise their heads, taking advantage of this turmoil, attracting all sects and factions to attack it." However, even so, it was our Ning brothers who arrived here in the end!" Speaking of this, the man's expression was light, as if this was nothing.

"On that day, eighteen of us brothers came to this cave together, but only I could see the small room in the cave, and only I could walk in. ”

"What do you mean, can't anyone else see this little cave?" Ning Hao asked.

"Yes," the ghost frowned, as if recalling, "I pointed to this cave for everyone to see, but everyone was as blind as if there was a small hole here. So I went in on my own, but I never saw them again. ”

"To get to this last place, you should need some unknown conditions. Later I thought about it and it seemed to have something to do with an incident that happened when I was a child. ”

"What's the matter?"

"When I was 3 years old, I had a serious illness, and the miracle doctors who happened to pass by at that time said that I was hopeless. But just three days before I was buried, I miraculously came back to life. At that time, the miracle doctor said that I was a disobedient person, and I should not be speculated. ”

"Rebels?" Ning Hao didn't quite understand.

"Yes, that's the only thing I think of being different from the other brothers. According to this line of thinking, the master should also be a rebel... Rat!"

Ning Hao didn't care about anything that went against his fate, he just listened to him ask cautiously, "I said... You have so many brothers, and what about the other dozen brothers."

"I don't know, they couldn't find me, they should have left in the end, and I never saw them again. ”

Ning Hao breathed a long sigh of relief, and it seemed that he no longer had to worry about another ghost suddenly appearing.

"When I failed to cultivate the scriptures, all the memories of the scriptures in my mind were erased, and my true spirit was also bound in my bones, and I couldn't survive or die!"

The ghost suddenly pasted his pale face over, frightening Ning Hao's muscles.

"Maybe a thousand years, maybe ten thousand years, you know, this emptiness and loneliness of being alone imprisoned in the silence and darkness!"
