54: Eyeless
The sky was originally clear, but after this statue appeared in the sky, there was an illusion in the sky, and there were many shadows.
The two wheels of fire whips flipped and whipped, and the shadows flew away under the whip of the fire whip.
Ji Fuzi's paper sword stabbed the idol again and again, stabbing it in the eye, causing bursts of strange light to splash on its body.
The person holding the golden white gourd threw the gourd into the air, and a golden and white gas came out of the gourd, which turned out to be a jade-like villain, only to see that the villain was holding a small sword in his hand, and he turned into a ray of light and instantly stabbed the eye in the middle of the idol.
A gap appeared in the eye, and there seemed to be blood flowing out of the eye, but it was like the liquid condensed from the original incense soaked in wood.
The jade-like little man revolved around the idol, extremely agile, and the sword in his hand kept stabbing and stabbing in one eye, and in the blink of an eye, it actually blinded those eyes.
Two bolts of fire penetrated through the pierced breach.
At the same time, an earthy yellow light also burrowed into it.
The Five Visceral Divine Cult refines the five qi in the chest and turns into five ghosts, these five ghosts can smoke incense, and they will also prey on the divinity on the idol, and this distraction with secret spirits falls into the idol, and has been hit hard, so it has become the object of prey for the dirty ghosts.
But the jade-like little man did not snatch the divinity in the idol, but still kept stabbing the idol, this little man actually used an extremely clever swordsmanship.
Another arrow shot into the idol, and the whole idol cracked, and flames burned from within, and from without, flames of mirrored light burned inward.
The people below who were originally restless suddenly quieted down.
The void reverberated with the voice of unwilling and angry 'Tricky Eye', but he was helpless after all.
……
Lou Jinchen smelted his body over and over again, feeling uncomfortable in his body, and like dead flesh, cemented places focused on smelting, refining everywhere, and finally his eyes, his eyes no longer looked like his own, as if they had completely become two dead.
"Lou Jinchen, Lou Jinchen."
"Senior brother, senior brother!"
Lou Jinchen woke up, but his eyes couldn't be opened, as if they were glued, and the pair of eye beads inside, which he felt were dead, became very hard, as if the two eyeballs inside had turned into two stones.
And he was taken back to the Fire Spirit Observatory at this time.
It's been days.
"Senior brother, Deng Ding went to Jiangzhou Mansion with his father and mother, and he said that he would come back after sending his father and mother." Shang Gui'an was next to Lou Jinchen and talked about the situation in Swimming City.
"Hmm." Lou Jinchen answered, in fact, he didn't want to say a word, but he shouldn't be afraid that this Shang Gui'an would feel that he was asleep.
The eyes can't see all of a sudden, which is more annoying, and others always feel that they are asleep.
"Ji Fuzi is fine." Lou Jinchen asked, he knew that if something like this happened in Swimming City, Master Ji must be under a lot of pressure.
"Master, he, master, he ......" Shang Gui'an hesitated.
"What's wrong with Master, it's just that cultivators, life and death are more light, why bother to be so careless." Lou Jinchen said.
"The Master gouged out his own eyes." Shang Gui'an said.
"Gouging out your own eyes?" Lou Jinchen asked in surprise, "Master's eyes are broken?" ”
"No, I heard that the people in Jiangzhou Mansion said that the entire Swimming City would be burned, but the master disagreed." Shang Gui'an said.
Lou Jinchen immediately thought of those who gouged out his eyes, and said, "Master can't be also affected by that 'tricky eye', right?" ”
"I don't know, but I don't think so." Shang Gui'an said: "The master said that although the people in Swimming City have been affected by the 'tricky eyes' and have been alienated physically and mentally, they are all living people, so they can't be burned to death like demons, and he is willing to stay in the city as the county magistrate of Swimming City, and control those who have no eyes." ”
"Are there only eyeless people left in the city?" Lou Jinchen asked.
"Yes, all the people who are still intact have left the city of Swimming, and there are only the eyeless people in the whole city." Shang Gui'an looked at Lou Jinchen's tightly closed eyes, he heard that Senior Brother and Ji Fuzi had killed that county monarch, but Senior Brother was invaded by that tricky eye, if it weren't for Senior Brother's power, I'm afraid he would have died.
"Then why did the master gouge out his own eyes?" Lou Jinchen said.
"Those who have no eyes say that the master is a man with eyes, and he cannot be their county ruler." Shang Gui'an said: "The master said at the time that he had no eyes, and he couldn't see in time that his younger brother was a member of the Secret Spirit Sect, and he was also the one who harmed the entire county, so having eyes and not having eyes are the same, so he gouged out his eyes." ”
Lou Jinchen was shocked in his heart, and for a while, his words were gagged and he couldn't speak.
He had a good impression of Ji Fuzi in his heart, opening a school, teaching a group of students, and guarding a pure land.
He still remembers the couplet on the wind and rain in Ji's school: "The rain is full of tranquility, and the wind blows a spring." ”
What a good heart.
Maybe in Ji Fuzi's heart, he has always felt sorry for that younger brother.
"Are the people from the Five Visceral God Sect here?" Lou Jinchen asked again.
"I've been here." Shang Gui'an said.
"Don't embarrass the Lord." Lou Jinchen asked with some concern, there was something about Master Ji just now, and he was afraid that the Lord would pay what price.
"I don't know, but it doesn't seem to be, they have come to see you, and I heard some of them point out to you that you killed the inspector of the Five Visceral God Cult." Shang Gui'an couldn't help asking, "Senior brother, did you really kill that person?" ”
Lou Jinchen was not surprised that he would be known after killing people on a rainy night, because the ghost of the Guan Lord had already been taken back, so Xiao Tong's death and the Fire Spirit View must be inseparable.
So, Lou Jinchen went to ask the master again, and the master sighed: "A lot of things, I can't say it clearly, I wanted to return the regent gourd to the sect, but Chen Protector didn't accept it, he told me that Xiao Tong's body does have traces of the pain of cultivating the gods, but after you killed him, his head is gone, I hope that after you wake up, you can go back to Xiao Tong's head, Chen Protector said, the inspector can die, but he can't die so undignified, so that the Five Visceral God Sect has no face." ”
"Since you killed it, and the head is missing after death, it is up to you to find it, if you are a person outside the sect, the sect will definitely bring it back to the Five Organs Hall together."
"I promised for you, but now that your eyes can't see, you can stay here, and I'll find it for you." The Spectator said.
"Lookout." Lou Jinchen wanted to say, in fact, it doesn't have to be like this, he can walk away, he can put all the responsibility on himself, even if the Five Visceral God Sect wants him at that time, he doesn't care, walking thousands of mountains and thousands of rivers is his next goal, and he is not afraid of being wanted by some sects.
"I know what you think." The Lord said: "I know that you must want to go away with a single sword, but in the world, whether it is an ordinary person or a cultivator, it is best to have a root, the Five Organs God Sect is still good, although there are people like Xiao Tong, but the implementation of the canon is also strict, although it is a side door, but in the Qianguo will also cooperate with the government, with this identity, walking the rivers and lakes can be much less trouble." ”
"But, you ...... the viewer" Lou Jinchen was interrupted by the viewer before he finished speaking.
"It's a little thing, I don't need to say much." The Spectator said.
That night, the viewer left, and took Shang Gui'an with him, saying that he wanted to find a lamp for Shang Gui'an to sustenance his heart.
In the entire Fire Spirit Temple, only Lou Jinchen and Nannan remained.
"Nannan, what's your real name?" Lou Jinchen asked.
Nannan sat next to him and hugged his knees, his chin resting on his knees and did not answer.
"It's so quiet." Lou Jinchen said: "It's night, is it the moon or the stars in the sky?" ”
Nannan looked up at the stars in the sky, she opened her mouth, but she didn't make a sound.
"Okay now, I'm blind too, you can't speak, one is blind and the other is dumb, it's really a natural pair." Lou Jinchen said.
The two of them are living together like this, day by day.
Every day, Lou Jinchen needs to visualize the sun in his eyes, refining those eyes, he can feel that the rich and rigid divinity in his eyes is decreasing, but it is not an overnight effort.
In addition, he also practiced swords, and the state of what he couldn't see and what his eyes could see was indeed very different, and he often made mistakes when he practiced swordsmanship at the beginning.
A sword stabbed out, and I don't know how far I stabbed.
When you can't see it, you don't dare to jump, and you can only feel at ease when you step on the ground.
But as he practiced, he learned to feel his surroundings through Dharma thoughts.
As Master Ji said, there are two layers of human thoughts, one is the part that one can fully grasp, like a lamp flame, and the other layer is the light emitted outside the lamp flame.
Sometimes, Lou Jinchen thinks that the light is the true value of the lamp.
He remembered that there was a saying in Buddhism called the light of the heart, and the light illuminated by the Buddha's heart can also be said to be a kind of spiritual perception, also known as inspiration.
I'll just call it Nianguang.
Lou Jinchen tried his best to inspire the world without seeing it, and slowly, he found that the world became more vivid.
The surrounding grass and trees are all breathing, and the life in the grass and soil appears in his heart, and the light shines in his heart.
He was very happy and began to practice swords again, this time not only did not have that strangeness, but was more delicate.
Nannan held a wooden sword and followed behind him, but he couldn't keep up with the rhythm, only to see Lou Jinchen's figure flickering, the sword was swallowing, and between the swings, the sword light was like snowflakes fluttering, and it was like silver silk weaving in the air when it was swiped.
When he practiced swordsmanship, he no longer stirred up the surrounding turmoil as before, and became much more restrained, but as the sword in his hand swung out of the clouds, it was more condensed and more terrifying.
"Nannan, do you like swords?" Lou Jinchen asked.
Nannan nodded, Lou Jinchen closed his eyes, but seemed to see her movements, and said, "Then I'll teach you." ”
So, from this day on, Nannan followed Lou Jinchen to learn swords.
