Chapter 157: Master Xiao He

Mu Cheng's brows furrowed slightly, the most striking thing in the whole space was the wall that he had passed by before, which was engraved with Li Bai's "Will Enter the Wine", and there were no special scenes in other places. He began to suspect that there was some mysterious power hidden behind this wall. The direction of their travel seems to be related to the words on the wall, but the specific principle is not yet understood by them. So, they decide to go back to the wall again, look closely at the writing on the wall, and look for clues to solve the mystery.

Mu Cheng came to the stone wall again and stared at the words on it. Suddenly, he seemed to have entered a fantasy world, feeling that he was drinking with Li Bai. There were also other poets such as Du Fu, who drank together on the beach and listened to the sound of Li Bai singing poetry. Soon, an immortal crane flew past Li Bai, then circled back and landed in front of Li Bai. Li Bai climbed on the crane's back, the crane flew up again, and several poets asked Li Bai to help pull it, and several of them stood on the crane's back. The cranes took off, and several more cranes came, and the other poets jumped on the backs of the other cranes and flew into the sky together. Mu Cheng sat on a crane, overlooking the mountains and rivers below, and his heart swelled with endless excitement and joy.

However, the crane he was sitting on suddenly broke away from the queue, and he saw a person in front of him, supported by two people, looking black and white. Looking closely at the person who was being framed, a roar instantly sounded in Mu Cheng's mind, and he felt an indescribable shock.

Mu Cheng's heart was full of thoughts, and the scene in front of him reminded him of his father who had died in his previous life. The crane's image became illusory and ethereal, and he tried to make a sound, but found that he couldn't speak. He stared at the scene in front of him, recalling the scene when his father took him to school as a child, sitting on the bar of his bicycle; recalled secretly getting on his father's bus on a business trip, and in the end his father had no choice but to take him on the bus with him. These memories were churning in his mind.

At this moment, he watched his father walk into a city by black and white impermanence, and a scene from the eighties of the last century appeared in front of him, and black and white impermanence drifted away, leaving his father standing alone on a bus stop. Dressed in the clothes of the 80s of the previous life, my father waited for the bus with a briefcase in his hand and a smile on his face. Soon, a bus drove up to the station, and my father lined up to get on the bus and find a seat to sit down. Not only was the father beaming with joy, but everyone in the car was smiling and filled with joy and celebration. However, the bus left the station and disappeared from sight, but the crane he was sitting in did not follow and rushed into the sky again.

At this time, he saw that Li Bai was toasting with the king of heaven, Du Fu was pouring wine for himself, and Gao Shi was signaling to himself to celebrate with the king. Dizzy after a glass of wine, he opened his eyes again, only to find himself still facing the wall. A possibility flashed through Mu Cheng's mind, since Xiao He could practice the exercises, was there some kind of illusion applied on this stone wall? The idea may have been a guess he had based on his usual reading of novels, but he felt that he couldn't have seen the scenes for no reason, especially when he saw his deceased father, and the feeling of realism made him question.

Mu Cheng read the poems on the wall several times, but did not find anything unusual. He looked at Xiao He next to him and asked him if he had found anything. Xiao He's answer was the same as the guess in his heart, and it was also nothing.

Mu Cheng was thinking about what to do next, and suddenly he remembered that when he walked back with Master Xiao He on his back just now, his master's weight became heavier and heavier, and as he walked deeper, his body became lighter and lighter. At the same time, his master's pulse became faster and faster. This led him to a guess if he continued to go deeper and his master would be able to wake up. He told Xiao He about this idea. Xiao He also felt that it made sense when he heard it, so after the two discussed, they walked to Xiao He's master again. Mu Cheng carried Xiao He's master on his back and went deeper.

Sure enough, when Mu Cheng walked deeper, Xiao He's master's weight became lighter and lighter, and even Mu Cheng could feel his master's body temperature gradually increasing. Mu Cheng quickly shared this discovery with Xiao He. Xiao He also showed joy after hearing this. At this moment, Xiao He's master suddenly opened his eyes and showed an evil smile. He broke away from Mu Cheng's back and was suspended in mid-air. Mu Cheng was taken aback, while Xiao He excitedly called out to his master.

Mu Cheng was very surprised, he watched Xiao He's master actually float in mid-air, just like described in a fantasy novel. It was also the first time that Xiao He had seen his master suspended in mid-air like this, all of this was unbelievable, and they all looked at the master in amazement.

Xiao He's master looked at his body with a satisfied smile, the corners of his mouth raised, and he let out a strange tsk. Mu Cheng and Xiao He looked at each other, and they both sensed that something was wrong. Suddenly, Xiao He's master spoke: "The two little babies look quite tender, just enough to replenish my old man's qi and blood." It was too late to say this, and before Mu Cheng and Xiao He could react, Xiao He's master had already rushed towards them.

Suddenly, Mu Cheng gained a new perspective, and he looked at himself and Xiao He. He immediately realized that he controlled Xiao He's master. Mu Cheng reacted quickly, quickly skimming through the memories of the people who were being controlled. Xiao He saw his master floating quietly in mid-air, and called out to his master again, but received no response. He shouted to Mu Cheng again, but Mu Cheng didn't pay attention. Xiao He looked at his master, and then at Mu Cheng, at this time he didn't know what to do at all.

Just when he was puzzled, Mu Cheng said to him: "This person is not your master, your master has been killed." ”

Xiao He asked in surprise, "Huh? How can it be? How do you know? ”

Mu Cheng replied helplessly: "I can't say clearly, but I can be sure that this person is not your master." We should get out of here! ”

Xiao He then asked, "Then who is he?" If he wasn't my master, what would he do now? ”

Mu Cheng said calmly: "He is the murderer of your master, and we want to suppress him here." His heart was full of shock, he had just flipped through the memories of the other party, and many messages had subverted his imagination. This person came from another plane and came through the space tunnel, but due to the great reduction of his skills, he accidentally entered the space-time fragment, which directly damaged his body. Luckily, his soul entered the connection channel. Fortunately, he met a living person here and successfully took away Xiao He's master. However, his luck also ended there. After the seizure was successful, he tried to leave this passage, but found that the more he walked in the direction of Mu Cheng and them, the greater the resistance, and he began to wonder if there was an exit over there. Unexpectedly, during the march, he could not bear the pressure and collapsed, falling right in the direction of Mu Cheng and them, and the pressure suddenly increased, making it impossible for him to get back up. It wasn't until Mu Cheng and the others came here, Mu Cheng carried him on his back, and the pressure gradually decreased, that he recovered. However, before he could exert his strength, he was controlled by Mu Cheng's automatic defense.
