Chapter 121: The Secret Law
When he returned to the door again, only the old man was left outside the door.
"What about the kid?" I asked softly.
The old man waved his hand.
"Go home and rest, it's not too early, I have to go to study tomorrow!"
Study?
I didn't realize for a moment that this was also a modern village.
It may be that this experience during this time has given me a sense of confusion about time and space.
Coming back to my senses, I looked at the old man.
"You say you have a few things you want to say to me, you can say it!"
The old man's gaze immediately locked on me.
"If my guess is correct, you must be from outside, right?"
His question is very strange.
Whether it's the accent or the way we dress, we're not from here.
What's more, we are still driving a car with a lot of luggage, how can it be people here?
He came to me in the middle of the night just to ask such an inexplicable question?
"yes, we're not locals!" I replied briskly.
"And what do you want to do with so many things here?"
The old man's sudden cut in caught me off guard.
I really didn't expect him to suddenly ask such a targeted question.
The first is loose, the second is tight, this old man is not an ordinary mountain villager.
"We were just passing through and had a car accident and didn't want to do anything here!" I continued to answer calmly.
I'm telling the truth, and I'm not afraid of him continuing to ask anything.
The old man did not continue to ask the question.
Instead, he looked into the room.
"I can tell that several of you have great skills."
"I'll fix the car for you as soon as possible, and I hope nothing happens to you in the meantime."
The old man's reminder was a bit inexplicable.
Tell me not to do anything, could it be that he is worried about something?
With a heartfelt eye, I patted my chest and told him.
"Don't worry, although we are not good people, we will not do anything to hurt you, let alone cause trouble for you."
Given my assurance, the old man nodded slightly.
Then the old man turned around, was he leaving?
The questions were pointed, but he didn't ask anything I didn't want to answer.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this moment, the old man suddenly turned his face.
"By the way, I have to remind you."
"Don't go out these nights."
Don't go out at night?
I looked at the old man in amazement.
"Why?"
I was advised to eat well, but I wanted to know why I didn't go out at night.
Could it be that there is something else here that cannot be done at night?
The old man waved his hand with his back to me.
"You just need to know not to go out at night, and you don't need to ask anything else." When the words fell, the old man walked away quickly.
Looking at the back of the strange old man, my heart was unusually peaceful.
Maybe I felt the popularity dispel the panic and fear I had just had.
Retreating into the room again, I looked in the direction of the fat man.
I don't know why, but his position seems to be a lot darker than other places.
Even though the room was lit by a fire and candles, I still looked down on what was in the fat man's place.
Calming my mind, I walked briskly.
"Fatty, are you asleep?"
The fat man sat up sharply.
"What's wrong? Is it time? ”
This time, it woke up the fat man very smoothly.
"You're not asleep, are you?" I asked softly.
The fat man shook his head.
"I just had a nightmare, like something was pressing on me."
"How long have I been asleep?"
I looked at my watch.
"About half an hour."
The fat man looked at me blankly.
"Didn't you say that I didn't get up until the middle of the night? It's only been half an hour. The fat man immediately complained.
But his first instinct was not to lie down and sleep again.
Instead, he reached for the plastic bag next to him, which contained the food that the villagers had packed for him.
"Don't eat you, go to sleep."
"I can't eat it, I feel very hungry, and I don't know what's going on." As he spoke, the fat man began to grab the contents of the bag and stuff it inside.
I frowned at the sight of gobbling up.
This kid can't be in a situation, right?
After a moment's thought, I looked at the fat man and asked.
"How are you feeling right now? Is it uncomfortable? ”
The fat man looked at me.
"It's not uncomfortable, it's just a little weird, and I can't put it into words."
"Are you feeling hungry? How much did you eat to get hungry? I asked tentatively.
The fat man was stunned for a moment, then nodded violently.
"Yes, yes, that's what it feels like, I'm so hungry that I can't eat enough, and I don't know what's going on."
I'm so hungry that I can't get enough to eat?
I quickly took out a talisman from my bag and walked to the fat man.
"It may hurt a little, bear with me!"
As I spoke, I had already put the talisman on the fat man's head.
"Brother Li, what are you doing? I'm not a corpse. The fat man looked at me blankly.
Useless?
It shouldn't be.
I feel very hungry and eat as if I haven't eaten, which is clearly a symptom of being possessed.
If it is possessed, it is impossible for the talisman to be useless.
Did I use the wrong character?
I looked at the talisman on the fat man's forehead, and the lines were indeed exorcismal talismans.
And I drew it myself, so it can't go wrong.
He tore the talisman from the fat man's forehead and stuck it to the pillar next to him.
"It's okay, you can go back to sleep."
The fat man didn't continue to ask, but fell asleep.
Listening to the fat man's snoring, I returned to the fire.
Looking at the dancing flames, I had a lot of thoughts in my heart at the moment.
There are still many questions that cannot be answered.
It's not a problem to keep it like this.
I took it out of my bag and got the Maoshan secret method before.
Maybe there's a talisman in Maoshan that I don't know.
There is no harm in learning two more.
When I opened the secret method, I was blown away by the first page.
"All things in heaven and earth are the convergence of yin and yang, and all things are one."
"Yin and Yang give birth to all things, and all things can also control yin and yang."
……
Closing the book, I looked at the cover of the secret method.
At the moment, this secret method gives me a very strange feeling.
Manipulate yin and yang, manipulate all things?
Is this thing that amazing?
I hurriedly continued to scroll down, but the sense of anticipation on my face gradually decreased.
Except for the opening words, the rest of the content is all about the Fu Seal.
I can draw most of the sigils myself.
A small part of them can't play a role even if they can draw with my current cultivation.
Overall, it's just two words, useless.
At least not for me now.
Could it be that this so-called secret method is just a miscellaneous book to me?
