Chapter 82: Meditation on the Tao X
Knowing that I could easily control people's minds by raising my hands and feet, I suddenly wondered if I would appear in a hallucination.
Or rather, I was controlled by Ran.
The Five Elements Imp is in charge of the Five Elements of the Netherworld and is under the command of Lord Yama, but now why is he following the instructions of Ran? What is the origin of this?
I kept having all kinds of questions in my head, and I didn't know what was going on!
"Leave to die and come back to life."
Just when I was confused, the voice in my body sounded again.
"Put it in the place of death and then live, put it in the place of death and live after it, put it in the place of death and live after it."
I silently recited it three times in my heart, and at this moment, all the five elements imps rushed towards me.
A flash of light flashed in my mind, and I simply sat cross-legged on the spot, silently reciting the Tao Te Ching in my heart.
The five-element imp was getting closer and closer to me, but I sat on the ground and didn't move.
When I opened my eyes again, a familiar face appeared in front of me.
"Qingde, you're not dead?"
I pinched his face excitedly, looking at Qingde who was grinning in pain, not to mention how happy I was.
"What? Are you cursing me to death? Qingde had a straight face, with a serious face.
"Nope." I quickly shook my head and said, "How could I curse you!" It's good to be alive. ”
It turns out that everything that just happened is not true, and so on! No, why are the bodies of the eldest daughter-in-law lying there? And unlike just now, the two of them have not mutated.
I asked tentatively, "Qingde, what happened just now?" ”
"You... Forgot all? Qingde's eyes widened, and he had an incredible expression on his face. The two of them were going to pull you out of here. ”
Qingde pointed to the cliff in front of me, and I realized that I was standing on the edge of the cliff now.
"If it weren't for Aunt Dao Ran to stop them in time, the consequences would be unimaginable. The two of them had been subdued, and they were not human at all. With that, Qingde pulled me aside.
I looked back and saw that she was smiling at me!
"What's going on? What the hell is wrong with me? Could it be that what has just happened is really a hallucination? ”
He walked slowly towards me and said, "Girl, I think you must have been hallucinating just now. ”
"Hallucinations?"
My mind is blank now, my head is groggy, and I can't tell where it's a hallucination and what is real.
"When you got close to them, did you smell a faint fragrance?"
Hearing this, I did smell a fresh fragrance.
While we were talking, the eldest and the daughter-in-law suddenly stood up from the ground, their bodies straight.
Since I had my back to them, I couldn't see what was going on behind me, and I didn't know they were coming at me.
"Be careful."
Qingde shouted and knocked me aside, while he himself was seriously injured by the eldest daughter-in-law, and when the second daughter-in-law came up, she directly punched him through the chest.
Looking at Qingde, who was desperate to save me, his body was slowly falling.
"Qingde...
I cried and cried out as hard as I could.
Qingde's mouth was bleeding, he looked at me affectionately, and said, "Ai'er, I can't do it anymore, you have to take care of yourself!" ”
Seeing this, she was also furious, and with a slight wave of her hand, the eldest and daughter-in-law flew out a few meters away.
I hugged Qingde, who was about to die, and remembered that he was in the illusion just now, and he also died like this, is he still in the illusion now?
"Qingde, wake up, don't sleep. Wake up! ”
I shook Qingde vigorously, but Qingde didn't respond.
At the same time, the eldest and daughter-in-law have been subdued.
The two of them wailed in pain, and I looked at Ran in confusion.
Ran explained: "The two of them were tricked into Gu, and they were animal Gu, and they are having seizures now!" ”
I thought to myself: who is so ruthless, these are two living lives!
In the crowd, after a figure saw this scene, Yaoyao was helpless and said to herself: "Alas! finally don't have to be angry anymore, but it's a pity that the two died badly enough. ”
When the man had finished speaking, he went down the mountain.
He squatted down to check on Qingde, rolled his eyelids, and covered his heart with his hand.
Then he looked at me with a special eye. "Do you want to save him?"
I was stunned for a moment, and after I came to my senses, I nodded vigorously.
"Follow me."
I picked up Qingde and followed him into the Qinglian Taoist Temple, although there were many believers who came to visit, but the view was simple and unpretentious.
We arrived in the antechamber and were greeted by four tall golden statues.
"They are...
Although I am a member of the Daomen, I have never met the four heavenly masters of the Daomen, and it is normal not to know them.
Ran first looked me up and down, and then said: "They are the Four Heavenly Masters of the Daomen, and the one in the middle is Zhang Daoling Zhang Tianshi, Ge Hongge Heavenly Master, Sa Shoujian Sa Heavenly Master, Xu Jingyang Xu Heavenly Master. ”
In the end, he added: Didn't you say that you are also a Taoist? How can you not know them?
I scratched my head in embarrassment and said casually: "I followed a poor master, I didn't learn much, and I haven't seen the four heavenly masters of our Daomen." ”
I don't know if I will be angry when I say this about the old beggar.
After saying that, I knelt in front of the statues of the four great heavenly masters and bowed my head respectfully four times to show my high respect for them.
"Do you really want to save him?" Knowing the words, he asked bluntly.
"Yes! Of course I want to save him, after all, he died for me. I didn't think about it, and just said what was in my heart.
Without further speaking, she lit three incense candles, inserted them into the censer, and began to chant the incantation softly.
When she turned around again, there was an extra flag in her hand, which was composed of five colors, black, red, white, blue, and purple.
Seeing these five colors, I can't help but think of the five elements imp in the fantasy world.
"What is this? Why is it so good-looking? ”
I wanted to reach out and touch it, but I just looked at me lightly, and I shivered.
I thought: forget it! Find out what's going on.
Ran opened his mouth and said: "This is the Five Ghost Order Flag, which can mobilize the five elements of the little ghosts, it is a divine object given to the deity by the Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling, no one can touch it casually, and I hope the girl will forgive me." ”
I smiled awkwardly, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
I thought to myself, "What's the big deal, isn't it just a fetish?" Do I still have the Soul Sword? ”
"Your Soul Sword is not worth mentioning at all in front of the Five Ghost Command Banners."
The voice came again, and I panicked inside, worried that I would be found out that I was insane.
"You don't have to worry, no one can hear me except you."
I was wondering what "she" seemed to know what was going on in my heart, and voiced my doubts in advance.
"Who the hell are you? How do you know what is going on in my heart. ”
"I'm you! Didn't I tell you before? ”
"You are me." I repeated the words of the mysterious "her" and asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Because we're alone, well. You can call me Shadow. ”
"Shadows?"
I accidentally said these two words, and then I turned around and asked, "What did you say?" ”
I realized that I almost said it, and hurriedly explained, "It's nothing, I mean there's no shadow in this room!" ”
As soon as I said it, I realized that I had asked a brain-dead question.
Hearing this, he smiled. "The roof is obscured by the sun, and of course there is no shadow."
After a pause, he continued: "Actually, the shadow is inseparable from us, although there is no sun and the shadow cannot be seen, but this does not mean that the shadow will leave us. Take a closer look, but the shadow is still around us. ”
I crouched down curiously, and sure enough, I knew that what I said was correct, but without the sun, the shadow was not so obvious.
"Really! You're right. ”
He continued: "People are divided into men and women, for yin and yang, and talent is black and white, for yin and yang. Everything in the world has yin and yang, the universe is vast, after all, it cannot escape the mandate of heaven, all laws are inseparable from their sects, all can be successful, and all can be empty. ”
After hearing this, I shook my head vigorously: "It's too profound!" Do not understand. ”
He glanced at me and shook his head helplessly.
"Gold, wood, water, fire and earth, the five elements appear in their true bodies, the ghosts of the four directions are almost in the way, and the ghosts of the five elements are here."
Knowing that, waving the Five Ghost Order Flag, there were words in his mouth.
In the blink of an eye, five rays of light and shadow entered through the door, and we saw five imps of different shapes appear in front of us.
He stepped forward and said, "Prepare the Five Elements Dafa." ”
The five imps sat in an angular shape, with Qingde's corpse in the middle.
Seeing their skillful posture, I guess it's definitely not the first time they've done it.
"Girl, girl."
Maybe I was too engrossed in what I thought, and I didn't react when I called me twice. I didn't hear it until the third sound.
"Ahh What's wrong? ”
He sat cross-legged with his eyes slightly closed.
"Now his flesh is broken, and he needs to find it again."
I was taken aback by Ran's words, and asked in horror, "Can you come back to life with a different body?" ”
"After death, the soul lingers for three days, and on the fourth day, it leaves the body. We have to finish it before his soul leaves his body, otherwise Da Luo Jinxian will not be able to save him. ”
"Where am I going to get you a body back?"
"Aren't there a lot of people out there? Pick any one, as long as you can fancy it. "It's such an understatement, but it's all life after all! How could I possibly do such a thing.
"I'm not going to risk someone else's life to save another person's life, you can think of another way!"
"Something else?" He sneered and said, "It's easy to say, if you want to save someone who has died, you have to use a living person, you can't do this, how can you save him?" ”
I thought about it, and what she said made sense, but I really couldn't do it.
"Or ... Forget it! I spoke weakly, and I kept watching the expression.
Knowing that she was not angry, she opened her eyes and sighed helplessly: "Once the Five Elements Little Ghost is opened, there must be a life to pay for." ”
"Or just me!" I don't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, I shouted directly.
"Nonsense." Unexpectedly, he was actually angry when he heard this. "You're a woman, he's a man, how can you use your body, do you want him to be wiped out?"
I pouted unconvinced and said, "Isn't it all life!" Whose is it different! Besides, he died to save me, and of course I have a duty to pay for him. ”
He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Since you want to sacrifice for him so much, it's not impossible, it's just... ”
"Just what?"
I saw the appearance of Ran, as if there was something unspeakable.
He sighed and said, "Alas! I see that his wound is about the size of his heart, and if I can use my heart to plug the hole in his body, I may be able to save him, but... ”
I was a little depressed by the fact that I was always unable to speak completely, and the rest was always for me to guess.
"Say whatever you want! Don't worry. ”
Then he said, "From now on, you will be a careless person." ”
"Heartless people?" I think about it carefully, I have gone through so many hardships and obstacles along the way, and I have endured all kinds of hardships in order to find my brother. But now I don't even have any information about my brother. I don't know how my grandmother is now! It's a failure to think about.
"The memory of the unintentional person is only ten years, and every ten years the memory disappears out of thin air." He added another sentence.
"Don't, don't, don't."
The shadow in my heart had already sensed my decision, and successively dissuaded me from doing stupid things.
There are some things I really can't figure out, knowing that Qingde has been lying to me and using me. But when I saw him trying to block the fatal injury, I still felt inexplicably sad.
The days between the two have not been short, and the jokes along the way came to mind in an instant.
I couldn't help but look at his corpse and smirked, shook my head and said, "Qingde, this may be fate!" Although I know that you have been cheating on me, I can't hate you after all. Forget it, use my heart to awaken your conscience.
Qingde, if there is fate, let's see you in the next life! ”
After saying that, I slowly pulled out the Soul Sword and stabbed it into my chest little by little.
At that moment, I understood what pain was, my eyes never left Qingde's corpse for a moment, even though tears blurred my vision, I still wanted to see his appearance.
I was tired and searched all the way, but my brother didn't find it. Grandma, I'm sorry for you, I didn't fulfill your sustenance, let's go in the next life, I will be your grandson in the next life, I won't go anywhere, I will go around you every day.
Qingde, farewell, live well with my heart, if you think of me, touch your chest, there is my heart.
"You're so stupid! Why? ”
I came to a virtual space, white all around, and I heard familiar voices again.
"I don't know, I just feel like there's a mysterious force driving me."
The shadow smiled and said, "Don't worry! You can't die, even if you don't have a heart, you can live as usual. ”
Oh, yes! I also know what the shadow said, but if there is no one in the heart, what is the point of living!
