Chapter 5 The Nine-Character Mantra
The picture in front of me suddenly turned gray, and my consciousness began to blur......
"Brother, what's wrong with you? It's okay! Brother, brother, brother!"
Blurry, blurry...... In the next moment, consciousness suddenly disappeared, the picture disappeared, and Mingyu's limbs went weak and collapsed to the ground.
Slow closure of the eyes. Open it. Close. Open it. I could only vaguely see a vague figure, constantly shaking Mingyu's shoulders.
But no matter how he shakes, Mingyu still doesn't have any sobriety tendency. Eventually fell into a coma......
Opening his sleepy eyes, Mingyu looked at the familiar ceiling. I want to support my body with both hands, but my hands are out of force, and it is difficult to exert any strength.
"Are you ~ awake?" a cold word came into his ears. The tone of indifference, but with a trace of concern that ordinary people can't detect. Judging from the voice, it is not difficult to judge that the person who spoke was his younger brother Mingze.
Mingyu was just about to turn his head that seemed to be filled with lead with force.
The voice continued, "Don't move, you're almost paralyzed right now, so let's lie down in bed and rest." And I know why you sneaked into my room late at night. ”
Ming Ze paused, and then continued, "I've been carrying that box with me for the past few days, I just don't want you to get involved, but I didn't expect it to be like this, but it attracted your attention. ”
Ming Ze shook his head helplessly, and sighed lightly, "Alas, the glowing stone was accidentally seen by me in a grocery store, and when I opened the box, I saw a very old text, according to the information I have read in the past few days, it can be preliminarily determined to be the word 'in'"
Ming Ze looked out the window thoughtfully, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while, he continued, "I touched this stone at that time, and I had a very strange feeling, and it felt very familiar, so I bought it after discussing the price with the boss." At the time, I didn't see anything special about this stone, it felt very ordinary. Even that box might be worth more than a stone."
"But the boss didn't know the goods, so he sold them to me at such a low price. At first I thought it was nothing special, but the day after I bought it, something strange happened."
Ming Ze said this and looked at Ming Yu's expression, Ming Yu didn't know when he had already turned his head towards him. He looked at his brother, who was only a few months older than him, and continued:
"I start dreaming at night, not ordinary dreams, I always hear someone repeating a phrase in my ear, that false world!"
"When I woke up the next morning, I suddenly noticed that the stone, which had been dull, was beginning to emit a faint glow. The light was much brighter that night than in the morning."
"What's more, the color of the light is actually regular, the first day it is golden yellow, the second day is turquoise, the third, fourth, and fifth are lake blue, fiery red, and ripe brown."
Ming Ze looked at Ming Yu again, and chuckled: "I guess you must have guessed that this is according to the light emitted by the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth." It wouldn't be too surprising if it was just that, until the ninth day."
Speaking of this, Ming Ze seemed to look at Ming Yu with some fear, and after looking at Ming Yu's expectant eyes, he had no choice but to continue, "I touched the stone that night, and I was instantly swept into a strange environment, only to see an old man sitting in front of him with his knees closed, and my brain was blank at that time."
"After adjusting my mentality, I walked up to the old man, and when I wanted to ask about the situation, the old man actually said something that I had heard countless times in those days, but it was different, 'This false world is just my dojo, and I have been waiting for you for a long time. We'll meet again, but not now. ’”
Speaking of this, a question arose in Mingyu's heart, he had heard that sentence for ten years, why didn't the old man wait for him? But he didn't wait for him to think about this carefully.
Ming Ze continued, "Then he instantly moved to my eyes, clicked on my eyebrows, and disappeared in an instant, and in the next few days, I didn't find any abnormal reactions, but I was very curious, why were you so seriously injured"
Mingyu opened his mouth with difficulty and barely squeezed out the words from his mouth, "The scene I see is different from you, by the way, what are the characteristics of the old man you see?"
Ming Ze thought for a moment and replied, "I only remember that he sat cross-legged on an illusory word."
Mingyu was about to say something when he heard this, but Mingze continued, "By the way, his hair seems to have several colors"
Mingyu's pupils dilated, and he remembered the five-colored long-haired old man. Although the scenes seen are different, people are connected.
Ming Ze said again: "Now I can be sure of these two things, first, the words under the old man and the words on the stone are the same word. Second, I'm sure this matter is no longer within the scope of ordinary people's cognition, so there can't be a second person who knows about this matter except for the two of us, you should understand."
Mingyu stared at his younger brother, hesitating to tell Mingze what he had seen. After thinking about it again, I still plan to hide it.
"I'm almost similar to what you're seeing. But in the end, I was attacked, and you said that you think this character is the word 'in', so do you know what this character represents?"
Ming Ze pouted thoughtfully, he knew that his brother was lying, but he didn't intend to expose it, after all, he knew that even if his brother was not related by blood, in terms of personality, Ming Yu would definitely not be unfavorable to him.
After thinking about it, Ming Ze said, "I have consulted a lot of information and roughly know the meaning of the word. ”
"It is a word in the nine-character mantra of Taoism, and I don't know the specific use, but it must have a lot to do with the five elements."
The nine-character mantra is not new to Mingyu, he has also been exposed to these histories, and has an inexplicable interest. The nine-character mantra is: Those who are fighting are arrayed in front. At the beginning of Taoism, Mingyu didn't know what it meant.
Ming Ze looked at his brother with a surprised face, and said, "No matter what this word represents, in short, everything that happened today, God knows what you know, I know, don't let the third person know,"
Mingyu nodded with difficulty, his heart was warm, after all, the relationship with his younger brother was one step closer after the incident, and he became a comrade-in-arms in the same camp.
Outside the door, a woman with a graceful figure carried a plate in her hands, on which was gruel that was almost cold, and an egg.
This person is Mingyu's aunt, standing at the door with a shocked face at this time, and the hand holding the plate is shaking non-stop......
