Chapter 70: Thunder and Fire
After arranging the things of returning home to the brothers, whether to return or not to return is finally a matter of finishing a thought. But this is not the end, the old guy has to spare two or three hours every day to continue to explain some basic magic methods to his two great-grandson apprentices. Such days are a few months, and it is rare that in these months, the ginseng doll that makes it a headache to return has not appeared again. But the old guy's heart has always been afraid to support the bottom, and there must always be one or two people by his side, so that he can be a little more stable.
It was during this period that the two brothers began to notice that the white-haired little brother who followed the master of Guiyin up the mountain began to run up the mountain from time to time. He often walked away for two or three days, and when the food he brought with him was finished, he reappeared in the cave again. Basically, this white-haired little brother is covered with scars every time he comes back, and he doesn't say a word when he comes back, just find an inner hole and hide here.
At this time, the white-haired brother often stayed in the inner cave for more than half a month, and the master Guiyin did not visit, but just instructed the two of them to arrange for the minions to take care of the white-haired brother's diet. The brothers and sisters of Guilaigui District have been following the previous owner of the village to occupy the mountain here for some years, and they really can't imagine that there is any place on this mountain that attracts the white-haired brother so much. But every time he asked his master about the white-haired little brother, the hermit master always looked at the two of them with some amusement and said, "Now that I said it, you two brothers don't understand it either. I'll tell you when you're at his level. But you're only a thousand years old—that's enough."
After another half a year, one day, the minions who went out to step on the plate did not return to the cave that night, and such a thing had not happened before, but the minions who stepped on the plate several times were captured by the officers and soldiers who suppressed the bandits and escorted to attack the cave. At present, the whole cottage is full of panic, and the brothers who returned home were sent out several waves of people to go down the mountain to investigate. But after he came back, he didn't find anything wrong, and even several nearby counties sent people to inquire, and he didn't find any changes in the officials and soldiers.
It wasn't until the evening of the next day that when the brothers and sisters got home and were about to go down the mountain to find out the news in person, the minions who had been missing for two days and one night finally appeared. It turned out that before the minions could go down the mountain, they met a few hunters who had a good relationship. As they were talking, the minions suddenly overheard the gossip of the hunters. It is said that it is on the top of the back mountain, and dozens of large craters have suddenly appeared in recent times. These big pits are large and small, the big ones are twenty or thirty zhang long, and the small ones are seven or eight zhang in size.
The minions immediately thought of the white-haired little man who was eating and drinking in the cave, he was a quick temper, and he couldn't say that he would immediately go to the location pointed by the hunters. The road was not close, and it was not until the second half of the night that we reached the position that the hunters were pointing at.
I was here half a year ago, but I didn't expect the scene to change completely this time. Originally, the radius of more than ten miles was still beautiful, and the flowers and plants on the face were beautiful, but now it is full of devastation, and there is no place to settle down in this big pit all over the ground.
The hunters still said leisurely, where are the dozens of big pits all over the ground? You can't run away from a hundred or dozens of big pits. This minion circled around this, and he wanted to count how many pits there were in total, but this pit was even pitted, and he didn't sort out an accurate number of the minions.
After listening to the minions' report, Gui Lai raised his hand and said: "You said you should go, don't you know how to come back in advance? Do you know that it has been said outside that you have been arrested by officers and soldiers, and I am about to take my brothers down the mountain to find you one by one! If you come back one step later, I will take people away!"
The minion covered his cheeks and smiled with him, and said, "I'm not counting days, that white-haired little brother is still at home these days, and he may have to go out again when he wants." Isn't I afraid of bumping into the right face? Besides, I will have to go around the mountain first and then go back to the mountain, so I am in a hurry, so I will make my own decisions......
Although it sounds barely reasonable, in front of all his subordinates, Guilai's momentum cannot be discharged. Just when he was about to kick a few more small punishments, his old teacher suddenly appeared in front of him, the old guy waved his hand, stopped his disciple, and then said to the minions who stepped on the plate: "You said that you saw more than 100 big pits, so what is it like inside the pits, can you still remember?"
The minions were stunned for a moment, and they couldn't imagine that the master of the two village owners, this living fairy-like figure, could ask him what he said. After thinking for a long time, he said: "Most of the inside of the pit is pitch black, as if it has been burned by fire." But I couldn't smell the slightest bit of fireworks. By the way, there is one more thing, the outer wall of each big pit is different, some are very smooth, like fired pottery, and some are a little grooved, pitted"
"It was burned, but I couldn't smell the fireworks. The outer walls of the pit are like burnt pottery...", he repeated the words of the minions, then looked at him and said, "Don't go around talking about what you see, and don't go to that place again." Tell those talkative hunters to stop going - well, just say it's haunted, and the big pits in the ground are all haunted by evil spirits."
After the minion disappeared, Gui Wu said to Guilai: "This little guy, you look at him and reward him with something, as long as you don't let him go out and talk nonsense."
"Don't worry, this old man, the guy who stepped on the plate has the strictest mouth, otherwise he wouldn't dare to let him go alone" Gui Lai nodded yes, and then immediately said to his old master: "What are those big pits he saw? Is it really that little brother Wu did it?
After snorting, he said to the disciples of his great-grandchildren: "If you really feel sorry for the old man, it will take three or five hundred years to make a hundred or ten big pits, then I will be content." Don't say that I underestimate you, you don't need a hundred or ten, you can make three or five big pits, even if I didn't teach you in vain."
Gui Lai laughed, because he still didn't know what was going on, he didn't dare to pick up the words of no return. This can laugh dryly on the side, but he also feels a little too much if he doesn't return, after all, the two brothers are still his blood. After a pause, the old guy said: "That's the magic he figured out by himself, I didn't think that this little guy could really summon the thunder fire, I hope he can summon it, and he can suppress it......" From today, I will start to be busy with the outer chapter of Sun Fatzi, and I can only change it once a day, I'm sorry
