Chapter 379: It Turned Out to Be Him
Hearing this, I hurried towards the path in the grass.
Far away, a white point of light appeared.
The point of light kept flickering, as if someone was carrying a lantern in this direction.
The three of us immediately leaned down and fixed our eyes on the white light.
The speed of the light point is not slow, and it gradually becomes larger after a while.
When I saw the source of the white light, my brows furrowed.
It's a white lantern with a big word "Lay" written on it!
It's a soul-attracting lamp!
On the way we came, it was probably illuminated by such a soul-attracting lamp, right?
In my opinion, this kind of lantern is not carried by a living person, because it is useless to carry it by a living person.
It's the hell!
It's not people who carry lanterns!
The lantern was getting closer and closer, and I could finally see the situation.
It is true that the lantern bearer is not human.
To be exact, no one carried a lantern at all, and the lantern was floating in the air by itself.
Could it be that they are hairy?
But then, I noticed something else.
Behind the lantern, a figure could be vaguely seen, which could be determined to be a man, but it was still a little far away, and it was impossible to see his appearance.
Behind the man, there was a large group of black pressure monsters, numbering about a few hundred.
These monsters are about a meter tall and either walk upright or crawl on all fours......
But no matter how you move forward, you are bouncing and squeaking, and you make a "squeak" sound as you go.
The voice is short and the syllables are simple, like a monkey in the mountains.
I quickly glanced around the things, but I didn't find Li Di.
Except for the man, the rest of them were all that kind of monsters.
However, there were a few monsters carrying several bulging bags.
Li Di may have been in a bag.
The situation is unclear, and we cannot act rashly, so we have to continue to observe.
After another moment, the group came closer.
They have a face that is somewhere between a man and an ape, covered with reddish hair, but with white ears and a mouth full of fangs......
Look at the shape again.
The forelimbs are slender and the hind legs are thick, which seem to be the product of a cross between a monkey and an orangutan.
But I know they're not that simple, because they're surrounded by a circle of yin energy.
It's the kind of yin energy that only ghosts have!
Are they all ghosts?
"Second one, do you know what it is?" I whispered to the five-clawed golden dragon.
The five-clawed golden dragon thought for a while, and replied in a low voice: "There is Zhaoyao Mountain in the south, facing the West Sea, there are beasts on the mountain, its shape is like Yu and the ears are white, and the pedestrians walk, its name is crazy, it can pass through yin and yang, distinguish the past, can call ghosts, but I don't know the future." ”
The words of this article directly stunned me.
"Second child, you don't have a proper shape on weekdays, at this juncture, what kind of text are you dragging for me, right?"
The five-clawed golden dragon laughed dryly: "It means that there is a beast in the Zhaoyao Mountain, which looks like a macaque, can crawl and crawl, and can walk upright like a human, with a pair of white ears, and its name is a raccoon." This thing can understand yin and yang, and it can know the past, and it can summon ghosts, but it doesn't know the future. ”
"You're saying these things are raccoons?"
"I look a little bit like that."
I stared at the group of visitors for a while, and was about to ask again what kind of magical powers this beast has.
But I didn't ask after all.
I saw an acquaintance!
The man walking in front of the monster was thin and tall, wearing a robe, and he was an old acquaintance!
Shouichi!
The unicorn and the five-clawed golden dragon also found out, and their mouths were wide open.
Before, Qilin noticed that there were no people from the Five Gates among the people Siniang let go, and I once suspected Shouyi.
It's just that it was just a flash of thought, and it didn't take a deep thought.
I didn't expect ......
Could it be that Shouyi is also a heartless person?
Thinking of this, I hurriedly asked Kirin: "What is the origin of this Shouyi?" When did he join the Five Gates? How's the road? ”
Qilin frowned slightly and thought for a moment: "It's been about thirty years." At that time, Taiyi and Taiqing were suffocating in the Yin Place, and they ran out for a walk, and when they were strolling, they met Shouyi. Shouichi was unconscious at the time, but Taiyi took him back and woke him up. ”
"Oh? Those two old guys will be kind too? The five-clawed golden dragon spoke with a banter.
Qilin ignored it and said to himself, "When he woke up, Taiyi asked him why he came here. He said that he heard that there was a master in the Zhongnan Mountain, and he wanted to come to learn from the teacher, but he didn't want to wander around the mountain for a few days, not only did he not find the master, but he was tired and hungry and fainted. ”
"And then? Taiyi took him under his door? "I'm guessing the follow-up.
"Yes, Shouyi was less than twenty years old at the time, with a simple and kind temperament, and a heart to seek the truth, which touched a certain string in Taiyi's heart...... If you want to pass on what you have learned all your life, it can be regarded as a inheritance. ”
"This is also the fate of Shouyi." I sighed.
Qilin said: "Where, although this Shouyi has perseverance, he is stupid and talented, and he belongs to the kind of elm pimple that can't learn anything." ”
"No, when we came, we saw him walking on the mountain road as if he were walking on the ground, and he seemed to be quite good."
Qilin smiled slightly: "At the beginning, Taiyi patiently taught him carefully, saying that he was wise and foolish. For several years, Taiyi took great pains, but he achieved nothing, so Taiyi didn't bother to care about him anymore and let him practice in the door. ”
When Qilin said this, he seemed to fall into memory, and after a while of silence, he continued: "But I never thought that Shouyi would actually realize the Tao at one time, not only did his martial arts increase greatly, but he also had his own opinions on the matter of cultivation, and he was able to sit and discuss the Tao with Taiyi." ”
"Could it be that he has any adventures in this Zhongnan Mountain?" I asked curiously.
"This, I don't know, I've secretly observed him for a long time, and I have never noticed anything abnormal. Later, he took in two apprentices...... Wudaomen is said to be the sect of Taiyi and Taiqing, in fact, everything is handled by Shouyi...... How did he get mixed up with these monsters? ”
As he spoke, the unicorn's voice became quieter, and finally it was undetectable, as if he was muttering to himself.
As we spoke, Shouichi and the group of monsters came closer.
It's only one step away from the ghost gate.
I saw him stop, knelt in front of the ghost door, and kowtowed.
The monster that had been "squeaking" all the time before also quieted down.
They learned to keep one, and knelt down at the ghost gate and kowtowed.
He looks very religious.
In the dim moonlight, such a large group of monsters who don't know what kind of animal they are, kowtowing to a treacherous stone door, making the scene even more weird.
I couldn't help but feel a chill in my back......
After three bows and nine knocks, Shouichi stood up and stared at the ghost gate carefully.
We were in a position where we could only see his back, not his face at all, or what he was thinking.
After a while, he finally turned around and looked up at the sky.
I unconsciously followed the past, and around the bright moon, I don't know when a red halo appeared......
It seems that the blood moon is about to appear!
