Coming out of "Changjing Town", Xiao Linglong suddenly sighed: "I was angry just now, and I cast a spell, but now I think about it, I really shouldn't have it, I delayed the business, and now I can't even send a family letter." ”

Sun Li said: "I wanted to remind you just now, but you are more emotional......

Zhao Gan said: "It's okay, anyway, it's not bad for a moment, it's definitely worth the price after watching such a good show." ”

On a sunny day, a cool breeze suddenly blew, and then dark clouds pressed over, and "boom" thunder came one after another.

Sun Li said: "It's not good, it's going to rain heavily, let's quickly find a place to hide." ”

The rain said that it would fall, and several people ran wildly, but fortunately, on the endless road, they saw a thatched house not far away, and several people ran to the front of the house, and their bodies were already drenched.

The thatched huts are dilapidated but clearly inhabited, with wooden doors that can be opened and closed, and roofs that leak only slightly. There was a "bed" made of tree branches, a roll of felt, a jar and a bamboo basket, and nothing else. The rain became heavier and heavier, and there was no sign of stopping for a while.

Zhao Qian said: "It seems that this is a hermit's foothold. ”

Sun Li said: "With such a heavy rain, it is estimated that we are drenched like us, and maybe we are also rushing here." ”

Xiao Linglong looked out of the house and said, "I was drenched, but I didn't run wildly." ”

I saw a raunchy middle-aged man, walking slowly from the rain, his face covered with rain.

He walked into the house and took off his clothes and wrung the water, Sun Li and the others saw that he was naked, but his face was not shy.

The middle-aged man put the half-dried clothes back on and said, "You guys should also twist the clothes, they are wet and uncomfortable to wear." ”

Sun Li said: "Thank you big brother for your kindness, it's just that we are not used to exposing our bodies in front of strangers. ”

The man said: "Haha, that's right, when I was as old as you, I was also timid and had many scruples." Are you hungry or not, I invite you to eat baked potatoes. ”

So the man made a fire in the middle of the house, and then took out a few potatoes from under the bed and prepared to roast them in a charcoal fire.

After about a quarter of an hour, Sun Lixiao's clothes facing the fire slowly dried, but her back was still wet, but she had already said just now that it was inconvenient to take it off, so she had to stiffen it at the moment.

The man said, "If you don't want to take it off, just turn around and roast it." ”

Sun Lidao: "I haven't consulted my eldest brother's name, why is he living alone here?" ”

The man said, "I don't want to mention my original name, it's an invisible nail that nails me to the world." ”

Sun Li, Xiao Linglong, and Zhao Qian glanced at each other, thinking to see the demeanor of this eldest brother, not only a hermit, but also a master.

Sun Li said tentatively: "Big brother, I see that you don't even have a furnace, and it's definitely not alchemy, so are you cultivating immortals or enlightening here?" ”

The man used a wooden stick to pull out the burned grass ash charcoal, buried the potatoes and said, "I'm looking for my way back." ”

Sun Li thought to himself, it turned out that this eldest brother had lost his memory, what a pitiful person.

The man continued, "It's all my fault. ”

Sun Ligang wanted to comfort him, but when he thought about it, the eldest brother didn't want to mention his name, and said that he was looking for his way back, isn't this a contradiction, is there something wrong with his brain? Thinking about it like this, Sun Li's sympathy for men increased a little more.

The man said: "On a rainy day, let's meet in Pingshui, and it's also fate, I'll talk to you." ”

"At first it was just me, the endless void. So I began to create, first to create a place for myself to settle, and then the sun, moon, stars, rivers and earth ......"

Zhao Qian leaned into Sun Li's ear and said, "This person has a problem with his brain, let's be on guard." ”

The man didn't mind, and said to himself: "Later, I found out that these things have not changed, and they will always be what I created, which is equivalent to reminding me that these things were deliberately created by me in order to get rid of the void." ”

"So I divide my power into a part of everything around me, so that they can change and contract. Later I went out into the crowd and played with them, the joy was short-lived, but the emptiness was eternal. It's all because I'm so powerful......"

"Finally, I found a fun game, which is that I seal my abilities somewhere, and then give myself some clues to live like ordinary people."

Sun Li said: "Big brother, the potatoes are mushy." ”

The man hurriedly pulled out the potatoes, but fortunately there was only a little paste on the skin. Everyone divided a baked potato, blew it, peeled off the skin, and ate it.

The man continued, "At first the clues I left for myself were too obvious, and soon I became the powerful me again, and then I designed the clues to become more and more scarce and dark. This one was very good, but I still haven't remembered it. ”

He took a big bite of the potato and immediately spit it out and said, "Poof, it's hot." ”

Until noon the next day, the clouds and rain stopped. Sun Li and others said goodbye to the middle-aged man and packed up on the road. However, the long-term heavy rain made the road muddy and abnormal, and Sun Li Xiaolinglong could be described as struggling.

After walking for a long time, Xiao Linglong said: "It's not a way to go like this, the time is almost up, I'll try to cast a spell now." After speaking, she used the roadside stone as a table, folded a crane with paper, opened her hand, and the paper crane floated away. After a while, a red-crowned crane flew down from the clouds, but I saw that its wings were like wheels, and it was coming in an instant.

Xiao Linglong hung the mailbox on the crane's neck, touched its head, and the crane spread its wings and flew away.

Zhao Gan said: "In the future, I will worship Xiao Linglong as a teacher and learn the techniques of making all things in this battle." ”

Xiao Linglong said while origami: "As the saying goes, three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion." As long as you study hard and persevere, you will be able to achieve great results after all. ”

She didn't stop talking. I saw her take the two freshly folded paper horses and go around behind the tree, and then she saw smoke rise and heard the neighing of horses. Soon the smoke cleared, and Xiao Linglong led two black horses from behind the tree: "This is the Xuanma I called, ride it very fast, but don't make a noise, otherwise it will be easy to break the work, remember to remember!" ”

Xiao Linglong and Sun Li walked together with one horse and one horse, and there was nothing unusual at first, but after a while, the horse spread its hooves and raised its mane and galloped, the speed became faster and faster, the horse went up and down, the surroundings flickered bright and dark, and ran into another world in a blink of an eye, only to see the sun and the moon in the sky, clear and clear without dark dust; The stars are juxtaposed, and the bright universe is only clear. Strange flowers and plants, no wind falls, phoenix butterflies wander in the shadows; Treasured fruit melon, ten miles of fragrance, dancing bees lingering drunk fairy shadow. The light clouds are long-term, and they are out of Xiuqing Lan and Danqing; The river is stagnant, and the waves are splashing. The saddle saddled on the ground without a sound, as if walking in the air; There are few ripples in the reins, if they lose their original shape. People are fluttering and slow on horses, but they don't know how many distances they have traveled.

Suddenly, I heard someone shouting: "Zhao Qian, Sun Li." ”

Sun Li and Zhao Qian replied in unison: "Hey! ”

Immediately, Sun Li's crotch was empty, Xuanma dissipated like smoke, and he fell on his heels.

Looking at Xiao Linglong again, I saw her hurriedly turn around, and the people and horses were immediately like salt in the water, and they disappeared suddenly.

The voice just now sounded again: "...... Zhou, Wu, Zheng, Wang, Feng, Chen, Chuwei, Jiang, Shen, Han, Yang......"

Sun Li complained while rubbing his buttocks: "Who is reading "Hundred Family Names", and they thought they were calling us. ”

Zhao Qian flapped his wings and slowly fell down and sighed: "It's so dangerous." It turned out that the moment Sun Li fell, Zhao Qian flew out of the bookcase.

The two looked up, only to see a magnificent mansion standing on the main road, the courtyard wall is one zhang high, extending to both sides, the pink wall and blue bricks, it is solemn. The door of the mansion suddenly opened, and there was no plaque or couplet. Looking inside, the smoke was thick and unclear.

The voice just now remembered again: "Have friends come from afar, are you happy?" Guests inside please. ”

Zhao Gan shouted at the door: "We still have important matters, let's go back next time." ”

Sun Li secretly complained to himself: "It's no wonder that I didn't remember Xiao Linglong's warning, it's really a dilemma to fall in this place." ”

said that it was too late, and then quickly, a gust of wind came from behind, and swept Sun Li and Zhao Qian into the courtyard together.

An old man in the courtyard put down his book and said with a smile: "This little friend, I am fortunate to be happy." The old man's surname is Xue, the name is excellent, the word is shi, and the number is out of the dust, he has lived in this place for many years, and he never thought that the wind and clouds would meet, and the two little brothers have this side of the fate. ”

Sun Li had no choice but to reply: "Long admiration, long admiration, the old gentleman is too polite." My name is Sun Li, this ...... It's my classmate Zhao Qian, just for special reasons, who is like this for the time being. ”

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, the skeleton is just a soul dwelling, it's just a hundred years." Xue You sighed.

Zhao Qian muttered: "It's easy to say, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk." ”

Xue You said: "I won't tell you anything, I am in charge of the period of human life in this place, and I have seen and heard a lot. ”

Sun Li and Zhao Qian couldn't help but glance at each other, and secretly frightened: "In charge of human life, isn't it the king of the underworld?" ”

Xue You seemed to see through their thoughts, nodded slightly, and smiled without saying a word.

Zhao Qian said with a crying voice: "The king is above, let us go back, we are still young." ”

"No," Xue You said, "Last month, I started Shangfeng, and I begged to be transferred from my current position, and Shangfeng sent me a letter, saying that the boy around Guanyin suddenly said goodbye recently, and there was a vacancy in the position of sending the child, and I was told to hurry up and go to some activities." I'm suffering from the fact that there is no one to take my place, and I'm in a hurry. The arrival of the two of you today is just to solve my urgent need, you come to replace me, and I am so promoted. ”

Sun Li and Zhao Qian were stunned and didn't know how to answer. Zhao Qian whispered: "Brother Sun, in this way, I donated a child boy on the spot in Xiegu Temple that day, and there will be less trouble today." ”

"Without further ado, bamboo servant, take the two little friends to the 'Wangqiong Tower', and wait for me to deliver the work." Xue Youxi said.

A scholar in a green shirt said, "Please, two." ”

Sun Li and Zhao Qian were still standing in place.

The bamboo servant sneered, clapped his hands, and two evil stars flashed behind him, how could they be terrible, as evidenced by poetry: comparable to Tai Sui in the world, especially the evil ghosts of the underworld. Hook all kinds of souls and torment the lost dead. The two evil stars spewed green flames from one eye, and the other staggered to Sun Li and Zhao Qian, and roared in unison: "Bah! ”

Sun Li looked at this demon and shook his head, the two horns on his head were phosphorescent, and it was clearly a minotaur who was murderous; The monster was hips and tails, his cheeks were frosty, and he was a horse-faced spirit.

The bull head carried Sun Li, the horse grabbed Zhao Gan, and strode towards the backyard. Soon it stopped in front of a tower, which was so magnificent that it towered into the sky and could not be seen from its top. The whole building is quite elegant, as far as the eye can see, it is built with green bamboo, but there is a black and swarthy plaque hanging on the tower, and the book is "Wangqiong Tower". Several servants on the right side of the tower pushed a volley of waterwheels "squeak" and turned, and almost transparent things flowed out of the water cylinder, and they returned to their original shape as soon as they landed. On the left side of the tower is a deep well faintly glowing with cold light, misty mist, constantly jumping from the tower to the well, faintly listening to a voice in the air shouting: "I want to be a panda", "I want to be the emperor", "I want to be a beauty".

"Bulls and horses should be guarded outside, and they should not be disturbed by the wind and grass." Xue You ordered, "This tower has a total of nine gates, after the death of people, beasts, scales, feathers, insects, spirits, and monsters, each has its own door, and the middle gate is for the personnel to enter and exit, let's enter from here." ”

Sun Li and Zhao Qian didn't dare to breathe, so they had to obediently follow into the tower.
