Chapter 127: The torrential rain in the mountains and the snakes wander, and the devil wanders under the snowy mountains
The stinging rain was unexpectedly long-lasting, and it rained for three days without the slightest sign of stopping, and Jiang You rode a donkey in the rain in the mountains and forests towards Ganzi.
The heavy rain was like a river pouring into the sky, and there was no second sound in the mountains except for the sound of rain.
The journey from Ya'an to Ganzi was unexpectedly far.
Jiang You felt that the rain was coming at this time, as if something was wrong.
If we do this again, I'm afraid there will be a flood disaster.
At this time, a large river appeared in front of the road, the water was turbulent, and under the high water level, the river was extremely wide, and it had washed out of the river and spread into the woodland on both sides.
In the face of this big river, the donkey's footsteps did not slow down at all, and under the wrapping of white gas, the limbs and hooves stepped steadily on the water surface, and quickly walked over.
As the donkey had just crossed the river and had just reached the top of a hill ahead, it suddenly felt a terrible palpitation coming from an unknown distance, and began to dig the ground with its hooves.
At the same time, Jiang You also smelled a strong fishy smell in the rain that fell from the sky.
"Something is wrong with this rain!"
After Jiang You smelled the fishy smell of the rain, he immediately turned the donkey's head and looked towards the deep mountains in the upper reaches of the river.
The white light of his eyes flashed, and he pierced through the misty mist of the heaven and earth, and obstructed the view of mountains, rocks and trees, and then saw a deep hole in a col in the distance.
It was from this hole that the river flowed so rapidly that the eye could not go any further.
Jiang You's nose smelled the fishy smell of the rain, and he couldn't help but think of a folk legend.
"Is it so?"
"Click!"
A bolt of cyan lightning lit up the sky, and at the same time, the mountain shook violently, and the fishy smell became thicker and thicker.
Immediately, there was a loud bang that shook the sky, and the cave in Jiang You's gaze suddenly cracked, and a behemoth rushed out of it along the river.
The body of the thing was 100 zhang long, slender like a snake's body, and its solid scales were dark blue and black, like a big snake, but the top of the huge snake's head protruded a blood-red bulge, as if a single horn was about to break out.
"水虺 (huǐ)! The water flies away from the water! Jiang You looked shocked, he didn't expect to meet a water fly here.
Yu is the juvenile period of the mythical Jiao, hidden in lakes, deep pools, reservoirs, river tributaries, and holes, after 500 years of growth, go to the water and turn into Jiao, and after another 500 years, go out to sea and turn into a dragon!
Obviously, now that the aura has recovered, this water fly has cultivated independently, obtained creation, and accelerated growth.
After the water fly out of the cave, its body was drawn into the boiling river, and then a thunderbolt struck the river from the sky, and the river churned, and the water flew out a hissing scream, and then accelerated to swim forward in the river.
Jiang You saw a black shadow under the river coming from the upper reaches of the river, and thunder continued to fall on its body, and soon the body of the water dragon was split, and the flesh and blood flew up, and the river also turned red.
But despite this, the speed of the water fly still did not slow down by half a minute, and soon it flowed from the upper stream to the position of the river behind Jiang You, flashed by, and disappeared in the thunder.
"Ten thousand kinds of frost are free, have the snakes in the mountains come to the step of turning into Jiao?"
Jiang You couldn't help but compare it with the giant python he had encountered in Guizhou Province before, and found that although they were both snakes, they seemed to have taken different routes.
The body of this water fly is much smaller than that, but the head is a single horn, and it turns into a dragon, and the giant python in Naqian Province, in addition to its huge body, is basically the appearance of a python.
"I didn't expect the cultivation of demon beasts to be so different!"
After the water fly away, the heavy rain on Jiang You's side gradually became smaller, and soon the dark clouds that had been covering the sky became thinner, and the golden sunlight shone out through the gaps in the dark clouds.
This place suddenly brightened.
Is the heavy rain started because of this water fly?
Jiang You looked downstream along the river, the world over there was still a dark color, the heavy rain not only did not collect, but there was a tendency to intensify, from time to time there were lightning splits, thunder roars.
And that side is also the direction of Ya'an City.
Ya'an City is on the route of the water dragon, I don't know if it will be affected by this water dragon, and the city will be flooded?
However, Jiang You thought that the strength of the monks in the lama temple in the city was not weak, and he should have the ability to shelter him.
The junction of Tibet and Shu.
The sky is dark blue.
A gust of cold wind blew through the flat-roofed stone houses that stood on the thatched ground, and also burrowed into Zhuo Cuo's collar, making him shiver.
He tightened his collar and held his palms on the gravel-strewn ground, holding his weak body up, making out the sights around him in the dim sky, seeing a dark figure lying on the ground and the mountains rising on the horizon.
The summit of the mountain reflects the white light of the snow on the mountain in the dim skylight.
He had no time to pay attention to the snow-capped mountains in the distance, which were especially holy and peaceful in the night, and stumbled towards the dark shadow on the ground.
He took the man on earth in his arms and shouted loudly, "Guru, Guru, what's wrong with you, wake up!" ”
But no matter how he shouted, the person in his arms still did not move at all, and then, he trembled and stretched out his hand to touch the heart of the person in his arms, and found that there was a bloody hole in the heart, and the heart had already burst!
"Guru. The Guru is dead! ”
Zhuo Cuo unbelievably discovered that the master who had sheltered him all the way to escape was on the way to Shu and died!
Zhuocuo is a young herdsman in Tibet, after the revival of the aura, the Tibetan palace issued a call, the devil resurrected, wandered the land, so that all the herdsmen in Tibet gathered towards the Tibetan market, the Tibetan palace and Jokhang Temple will protect him.
After listening to the call, many people went, but there were still some herdsmen who did not leave because they were reluctant to raise their own cattle and sheep.
After all, when you arrive in the Tibetan market, how can you take care of these cattle and sheep?
The herdsmen who did not go gathered in a small empty town to keep warm.
At first, everyone was still trembling, but after a few months, they found that the days were as usual, and there were any devils wandering, and their hearts were settled.
Who knows, good luck always ends up one day, a few days ago, Zhuo Cuo was grazing outside, when he returned to the pen, he found that there were three sheep missing, which should be lost, and immediately rode a horse with the Tibetan mastiff rhubarb at home and ran back to look for it.
Circling the hillside, Rhubarb seemed to smell the scent and led him south.
He ran until he reached a mountain col, and it was dark, and he saw several black shadows squatting on the ground and eating something.
The black shadow was squatting in the dark, so that Zhuo Tso could not see clearly, but seeing the appearance of his wool drinking blood and eating live sheep, he immediately remembered the words from the palace of the Tibetan king, the devil resurrected and wandered the land!
The rumors are true, there really is a devil!
Zhuo Tso was so frightened that he turned his horse's head and ran.
As he galloped his horse, he heard the sound of a rope behind him, and the sound was getting closer and closer to him, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to look back, but kept kicking the horse's belly to make the horse under his crotch faster.
Just as the voice was about to come behind him, Rhubarb, who was running with him, suddenly turned around and rushed backwards.
Rhubarb is a Tibetan mastiff that he raised since he was a child, and at this time he actually gave up his life to savior, but soon, he heard the mournful sound of rhubarb, as if his neck was choked, and soon there was no movement.
Zhuo Cuo trembled with fright, and kept reciting the six-character mantra in his mouth, but in his mouth, the six-character mantra only served some comforting effects.
But fortunately, after Rhubarb's delay, he finally returned to the small town.
As soon as he came in, he rushed to his house and locked the house, and when his parents asked, he said that there was a devil chasing him from behind.
The parents will be suspicious, but they will not be stupid to run out to check, Zhuo Cuo spent the night in fear, safe and sound.
Early the next morning, my father summoned seven other herdsmen to inquire about the matter, but everyone said that they had never encountered any demons outside.
Then they rode out to look for it, and there was indeed a pool of blood not far away, but the body of the rhubarb had disappeared, and not only that, but the place where the three sheep were killed, except for blood, found nothing.
Everyone said that they might have encountered a wolf, but now that everyone is gone, the wolves are starting to move this way.
Just when Zhuo Cuo thought that he had really encountered a wolf, the nightmare of the small town began.
People began to go missing, and everyone went to look for them at dawn, but they couldn't see anyone alive or dead.
Every day after that, he was bound to disappear.
At that moment, everyone decided that the devil was saying, and they were about to flee from this place.
Early in the morning, everyone packed their bags and set off, but the disappearance still happened to them, and the devil was following them.
Then everyone scattered and fled, Zhuo Cuo and his parents thought, everyone is basically heading towards the Tibetan Palace, there are many people, the goal is also big, their own family is the opposite, towards Shudi, the devil may see that his family is too small, so he is too lazy to chase.
At first, as they thought, it was indeed safe, until one night when he was hurrying on his way, and Zhuo Tso once again heard the sound of a rope in the darkness behind him.
His hair immediately stood on end, and he turned his head and ran towards his father, who was riding beside him.
When he turned his head, his father and the horse disappeared together, and he turned his head to look at his mother, and found that his mother was also gone.
Then he heard his mother's screams coming from behind, and told him not to look back, and ran all the way forward.
But where can Zhuo Cuo escape from the hands of the devil, and after a while, the urging voice behind him sounded again, but at this time, he has no rhubarb, no parents, who can save him?
"Forget it, there's nothing, if you're dead, you're dead!"
When he was in despair, he found a loud six-character mantra in front of him, and then the voice behind him disappeared.
Zhuo Tso saw a lama standing in front of him wearing a red monk's robe and a bright yellow monk's hat.
The guru then rode with him.
On the way, he said that their idea of escaping was right, the Tibetan city attracted a large number of devils, and now the more you go there, the more devils there are, and he also missed the first time to go to the Tibetan market because of the retreat, and found this situation on the way there, so he quickly turned around and ran to other provinces.
My colleague also said that he was only a little obstructive to the devil just now, and he could only do this with his cultivation, and there was a temple where his uncle lived in Shu in front of him, and his uncle was there, so it was absolutely safe.
The two fled for their lives overnight, and on the way, the Guru stopped the demons chasing behind him several times, but as the Guru's face gradually turned pale, Zhuo Tso also knew that the Guru's power was coming to an end.
Sure enough, the teacher told him to dismount and use the horse to delay, and they fled on foot.
There is a limit to how long a horse can delay, but there is no way to do it.
Then Zhuo Tso heard the voice behind him in the darkness and caught up again, and the master turned around and fought with the devil, and he saw a golden light shining in the darkness, and then his eyes went black, and he fainted.
When he woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day, and the scene just now happened.
Zhuo Tso found that even his teacher was dead, where could he flee for his life now?
At this time, the big hand of the master in his arms grabbed his wrist at once, and the strength was so great that Zhuo Cuo grabbed it in a sharp pain.
Zhuo Cuo was suddenly startled and struggled quickly, the corpse of the master was defrauded!
"Run, run. Come on! ”
When Zhuo Tso heard the teacher's voice, he quickly stopped his movements, and saw that the master's eyes had turned black, and black cracks appeared on his face.
"Take this token, keep running east, whoever calls you, don't look back!" The guru's voice became quieter and quieter, and his neck seemed to be strangled by a pair of hands, making it difficult to breathe, so that every time he spoke, the sound of pulling a broken bellows came from his throat.
With great difficulty, the master took out a palm-sized demon-slaying pestle tied with a red rope from his arms, and then grabbed Zhuo Cuo's hand and let go, and there was no movement.
Zhuo Cuo took the demon slaying pestle, and saw that black gas began to bubble out of the corpse of the master, and he was so frightened that he pulled out his legs and ran forward.
The dusk in Tibet was blowing loudly, and Zhuo Cuo heard all the sounds of the whirring wind.
As the sky gradually darkened, suddenly the terrifying sound of the rope came from the wind.
The voice rang out one after another, and I don't know if it was because it hadn't fully entered the night or because the master had hurt him before, but it was just hanging far behind him.
Hearing that voice, Zhuo Cuo's heart was like a lot of ants crawling, and he wanted to look back several times to see how close he was, but the master wouldn't let him turn back, and he could only endure it.
"Donor."
But at this moment, the voice turned into a high-pitched scream, and Zhuo Cuo's heart was awe-inspiring, this was the voice of the guru.
But the guru said that no matter who called him, he couldn't turn back, just run forward.
All of them were still running wildly, but fortunately, he had a good physique tempered by years of grazing, so that Zhuo Cuo's physical strength had not been exhausted when he tossed for so long.
Soon, all kinds of voices appeared in Zhuo Cuo's ears, father, mother, familiar herdsmen, and even the cry of rhubarb.
These made Zhuo Cuo think, "Could it be that those who disappeared disappeared because they looked back?" ”
Throughout the night, Zhuo Cuo didn't pay attention to the sound behind him, and at dawn, the sound behind finally disappeared, and he couldn't hold on, found a tree, climbed it, and took advantage of the day to rest.
Originally, he wanted to rest for ten minutes before leaving, but as soon as he leaned against the branch, his eyelids became less heavy, and he immediately fell asleep.
Zhuo Cuo was woken up by the cold wind, after he woke up, he felt that his head was dizzy, his cheeks were hot, he should have a fever, but at this time he couldn't care much, he looked at the sky, and scolded himself in his heart, this sleep slept until the afternoon.
After jumping from the tree, he hurriedly set off, but who knew this move, only to find that his hands and feet were sore, he did not stand firm under his feet, his body was crooked, and he fell heavily to the ground.
Zhuo Cuo sat up in pain, pulled up his trouser leg, and found that his ankle had swelled into a circle, "Oh no, I twisted my foot just now!" ”
"It's over!"
Zhuo Cuo shouted in his heart, after holding on for so long, he still can't live?
Just when his heart was like ashes, he suddenly saw something under the tree not far from him.
He looked closely, and saw what appeared to be a black shadow sitting cross-legged under a tree, and a huge black shadow was hidden behind the tree.
"Devil!"
Zhuo Cuo screamed, but he didn't expect that it was not safe during the day, and the devil caught up with him while he was sleeping.
Then Zhuo Cuo seemed to accept his fate, lying on the ground with his back and eyes closed.
Jiang You opened his eyes helplessly, "How did I become a devil?" Really, are you scaring people? ”
The donkey beside Jiang Youchao glanced at it, and the donkey barked aggrievedly.
Jiang You entered Ganzi and went to Ganzi City according to the map, and when he arrived at the place, he found that this place was already a ruin, and there was no living thing.
Seeing this situation, Jiang You patrolled the Ganzi area, wanting to find a survivor and understand the situation, who knows, this Ganzi area is quite large, and he has not found the place of people for half a day.
Finally, at noon today, Jiang You saw a Tibetan young man in a Tibetan robe sleeping on a tree branch from a distance, thinking that he had finally found a living person.
But seeing that the young man was sleeping deeply, he did not bother, meditated under the tree not far away, and waited for him to wake up.
Who knows, as soon as the young man woke up, he fell from the tree, twisted his foot, but shouted at himself that he was the devil, and then he lay down and fell to the ground without moving.
Jiang You was also helpless, walked in front of the young man, bent down and wanted to pick him up for questioning, who knows, when the young man stretched out his hand in Jiang You, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a secretly pinched demon pestle in his left hand stabbed Jiang You in the chest.
With the young man's full strength, the demon pestle did not penetrate even a thin layer of skin on Jiang You's chest.
"Isn't even a pestle useless against the devil?"
Zhuo Cuo thought desperately, and then heard a human voice, "Hey, there's something wrong with you!" ”
"What? Are you human? ”
"I just stabbed people with something, and now I'm scolding people again, right?"
"I'm sorry, I thought you were the devil. It's not good, there is a devil behind me who is chasing me, and now I have a broken foot, and I can't walk anymore, you run quickly, take this on, and run in this direction, and when you see the temple, you can quickly go in, show this to the teachers inside, they will take you in, and you will be safe, remember, if someone calls you on the road, don't look back! ”
Zhuo Cuo gave Jiang You a warning, and then saw that the sky was also starting to get dark at this time, so he quickly let Jiang You move.
"Hurry up, if the devil comes, he won't be able to leave!"
Zhuo Cuo found that the Han man who appeared in front of him didn't seem to believe what he said, and his face was calm and calm, without the slightest nervousness.
Just as he stuffed the demon slaying pestle in his hand into Jiang You's hand to continue explaining, Jiang You refused with a smile, "It's better for you to hold this thing, and the devil you said is this thing?" ”
Saying that, Jiang Youchao Zhuo Cuo pointed behind him, Zhuo Cuo was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction he pointed.
I didn't know when, a walking figure appeared about fifty meters behind me.
The figure was wrapped in layers of wide bandages, revealing only a wrinkled face, and a 'kind' smile to Zhuo Tso.
Zhuo Tso took a closer look, and the 'person' here turned out to be the teacher!
Could it be that the Guru was the one who was chasing after me last night?
As the figure approached, the circles of 'bandages' glowed white.
The light flowed slowly on the 'bandage'.
Zhuo Tso saw clearly what the 'bandage' was-
That's not a bandage at all!
It was a series of snow-white arms that came out of the guru's collar and cuffs, and they intertwined all over the guru's body.
Their snow-white color is like bandages!
At this time, a pair of small hands stretched out from the knot of the 'bandage' and beckoned to Zhuo Cuo slightly.
A stream of coolness hit Su Wu's brain, he bit the tip of his tongue, turned his head to Jiang You and said, "Run, I'll help you drag it!" ”
However, as soon as he turned around, the man he had been talking to just now had disappeared without a trace.
made Zhuo Cuo wonder for a moment if he was hallucinating just now.
At this time, he felt that his face was extremely hot, his head was dizzy, and even breathing would make his head ache.
Do you have a high fever to the point where you are hallucinating?
At this time, the 'Guru' had already walked in front of Zhuo Tso.
When I looked closer, I saw that the smile on the face of the 'guru' became more and more eerie.
Zhuo Cuo originally thought that he was not afraid of death, but when he really died, he still felt that his heart was almost beating out of his throat.
At this time, the 'Guru' had already walked in front of Zhuo Tso, and he immediately planned to use the tricks of his 'fantasy'.
With all his might, he stabbed the demon slaying pestle towards the 'Guru'.
This demon-slaying pestle was originally given to him by the master, so now return it to him and let him rest in peace.
But Zhuo Cuo found that his movements were extremely slow.
It was supposed to be an instantaneous sneak attack, but now he is given ten seconds, and he can't complete it, his movements are like a frame drop, moving one at a time.
Zhuo Cuo's back was soaked through his clothes with cold sweat!
"Devil, slow me down!"
Then he felt something on his neck, and when he looked down slowly, he saw that at some point, two white and glowing delicate arms had wrapped around his neck!
At this time, the few snow-white hands closest to Zhuo Cuo's mouth opened their five fingers, opened his mouth, and tried to tear it in all directions.
"Ahhhh
The corners of Zhuo Cuo's mouth are about to be torn!
A painful sound burst out of his throat!
However, his mouth was not really torn, but under the tearing of those small hands, it expanded bigger and bigger, and it was about to be able to accommodate a basketball!
The 'Guru' laughed, and his head tried to get into Zhuo Tso's basketball-sized mouth.
Devil! Devil!
Zhuo Tso's eyes were split, and when he saw that the head of the 'Guru' was about to burrow into his mouth, there were suddenly several loud donkey barks in the shadowy forest around him!
Donkey? Where did the donkey come from?
He rolled his eyes, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a black, horse-strong donkey rushing out of the forest diagonally across the woods, and pounced on him!
The black shadow suddenly pounced, leaving an afterimage in Zhuo Cuo's field of vision!
The 'master' who was still trying to get into Su Wu's mouth suddenly screamed at this time, and was blown away by a gust of black wind while swinging.
Then Chotso saw a white light coming from the donkey's hoof, and after two or three strokes he turned it up, and one hoof was raised high and pointed at the head of the 'guru'.
Black gas came out of the skull, and it held on to the white light for a while, after all, it was to resist the white light, but after it was broken, the hooves deflated the skull.
Then a black smoke flew into the air, and the donkey saw this, and quickly followed, but the black smoke flew very fast in the air, and when it was about to disappear, suddenly a black light flashed in the air, and a scream came out of the black smoke, and then it dissipated.
So many changes have happened in such a short period of time, and Zhuo Cuo was temporarily stunned, and he couldn't react.
At this time, a voice suddenly came from behind him, "Good heart, a good seedling!" ”
Zhuo Cuo was startled, and hurriedly turned around, and saw that the man who appeared in his 'hallucination' just now appeared in front of him again, as if he had never disappeared.
"I'm hallucinating again, could it be that I've just been eaten by the devil, and now I'm dying?"
Zhuo Tso was thinking about it, when he suddenly felt a pain in his head, and the man in the 'hallucination' actually raised his hand and hit his head.
"Hey, who's hallucinating?"
With the man's blow, Zhuo Cuo felt a hot current flow from the top of his head, and suddenly his head woke up, no longer drowsy, and his face was not hot.
"You're not hallucinating?"
"Okay, stand up and ask you a few words, you kid!"
Jiang You scolded with a smile.
Zhuo Tso took a look at his ankle and found that it was no longer red and swollen, and it was back as before.
Hurriedly stood up and kowtowed to Jiang You, "You are the incarnation of the Buddha, come and save me!" ”
As soon as Jiang You stomped his footsteps, a force on the ground emanated from Zhuo Cuo's knees, and he was pushed to a straight position at once.
"I'm not a Buddha."
"You are the immortal in the mouth of the Han people."
"I'm not an immortal, I'm just an ordinary person, okay, okay, let's talk about what is going on!"
Jiang You and Zhuo Cuo wasted their words for a long time before Zhuo Cuo knew that he was a cultivator like his teacher.
Then Zhuo Cuo burst into tears and told Jiang You his tragic story.
Jiang You didn't expect the situation in Tibet to be so grim, "Then the master said, there is a temple in front, right?" Okay, let's go over and have a look! ”
