Chapter 8, the golden cicada sheds its shell
But now is not the time to rejoice.
At the moment of the great enemy, the crisis of life and death is at hand, if he can't even escape this catastrophe, let alone cultivating his heart yuan now, even if he suddenly breaks through to the free realm now, it will be useless.
Moreover, even if he cultivated the Heart Yuan when he entered the fourth layer of the Concentration Realm, it didn't mean that his qualifications would change from then on. Half-trick waste is still half-trick waste, and the path of cultivation in the future is still long and arduous.
Moreover, Xiao Mo's entry realm has not been improved because of this, the fourth layer is still the fourth layer, and if you want to be promoted to the fifth layer, you still have to go through a long time of cultivation.
Looking up at the sky, it was just past the hour, and there were still more than two hours before Xiao Mo decided to be the best time to escape.
The figure of Deacon Xiao outside the door still stood there, straight as a gun, and never moved.
Obviously, even if he didn't look down on Xiao Mo, a half-witted waste, he didn't take him to heart at all, but he was still very loyal to his mission, and he didn't wait for the Xiao family patriarch to personally send Xiao Mo to the prisoner car, but he was afraid that he would never leave.
Xiao Mo's pupils shrank slightly.
At this time, his heart had completely calmed down, and looking out the window at the standing and motionless figure of Deacon Xiao, an immature plan suddenly began to jump out of his mind.
After a while, my mind continued to change and improve around this strategy. In the end, a plan that was almost perfect in Xiao Mo's eyes and could ensure that it could deal with any unexpected situation completely took shape in his mind.
But after all, his life was at stake, and just in case, he went through the plan from beginning to end, and when he was sure that nothing was missing, and there was almost a 100% chance of success, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Next, it's time to wait for the dawn. ”
As soon as people relaxed, they couldn't help but think wildly, just after cultivating the heart element, Xiao Mo didn't want to enter the cultivation state for a while.
After thinking about it, he suddenly stretched out his hand and took out the black wooden fish he had obtained in the family Hidden Heart Pavilion during the day.
The night was as cold as water, and the bright moon moved through the window, sprinkling a cool moonlight in Xiao Mo's room.
Xiao Mo held the black wooden fish in his palm and watched carefully.
I didn't look carefully during the day, but at this time, it was the moonlight, and when Xiao Mo's eyes fell on the black wooden fish in his palm, he was surprised to find that with the moonlight above his head, the pattern on the wooden fish seemed to come to life, revealing a strange taste under the moonlight.
Xiao Mo looked carefully, and saw that the color of the wooden fish was slowly changing, from the original dark color to pure green, and then it turned out to be green and purple, and the whole was as transparent as a heart.
The most important thing is that "it" actually has an exhalation.
I saw that its back was volt, and the frequency was very slight, and if you didn't look closely, you couldn't find it at all. But when you concentrate on the back of the wooden fish, you will find this very wonderful change, like a breath, a breath...... Full of wonderful rhythms.
"What is this?"
Xiao Mo was startled, his hand shook, and he almost knocked the wooden fish to the ground.
Fortunately, he had a good heart after all, and at the last moment, he restrained himself, closed his left hand, didn't dare to look at it more, and directly put it into his sleeve. And the person sat there cross-legged, still his face constantly changing, and he had not recovered from the strange change that happened to the wooden fish just now.
"This wooden fish is absolutely extraordinary, but what is it, why is there such a strange change, and how did it end up in my Xiao Family's Hidden Heart Pavilion and be collected as an ordinary soul treasure?"
Xiao Mo couldn't help but have countless questions in his heart, and he couldn't help but think of the origin of the birth of the strange sound device of the wooden fish.
Legend has it that Muyu was born because in ancient times, a Buddhist monk went to the holy land of Western Zen to learn scriptures. At that time, the vitality of heaven and earth had not yet dispersed, and it was the time when Taoism was at its most prosperous, and the holy land of Western Zen was the ancestral garden of Buddhism at that time.
The monk had gone through a lot of hardships and finally obtained the scriptures and returned, but when he was crossing the sea by boat, the wind and waves were fierce, and a vicious fish pounced on the boat with its mouth wide open, swallowing the scriptures placed on the bow of the boat.
In order to protect the scriptures, the monk jumped into the sea to fight the evil fish, and finally killed him and dragged him back to the bow of the ship.
As soon as the evil fish died, the sea instantly returned to calm and sunshine. The body of the evil fish turned into sewage and flowed into the sea, leaving only the head of the fish on the boat, but the scriptures were lost, but they could never be recovered.
Afterwards, the monk had to return to the Buddhist temple with the fish head, beat the fish head every day, and recited the "Amitabha Buddha ......", hoping to return the Buddhist scriptures, day after day, the fish head was knocked to pieces.
But the monk has already developed the day of knocking on the head of the fish to chant the scriptures, so he carved a wooden one according to the appearance of the fish head, chanting the scriptures every day, and finally became a Buddha.
As a result, later generations rushed to visit each other, knocking on the wooden fish and chanting, which became the practice habit of the children of Buddhism.
However, Xiao Mo knew that this rumor was just a far-fetched conclusion by later generations. The disciples of Buddhism like to use wooden fish, just because the fish often wake up day and night, never close their eyes, so carved wooden shape and hit it, the intention is to alert themselves, can not slack off.
This is the same as the precepts of Buddhism, but later gradually spread, people do not know its meaning, but the wooden fish is very popular, spread all over the world, and become one of the symbols of Buddhism.
In fact, this instrument is also used by Daomen disciples, and it was first used as a token of Daomen, which was used to gather apprentices and use it for preaching. It can be said that its symbolic meaning is far greater than its actual meaning.
However, when the vitality of heaven and earth is dissipated, the disciples of Buddhism and Taoism will either escape into the blessed land of the cave and disappear from the world, or they will completely disappear and become memories. With the passage of time, the wooden fish has been gradually forgotten by the world.
Therefore, it is impossible to say that it is really a rare treasure, and it should not have any connection with the cultivators.
This is because the cultivators of the mind were born 4,500 years ago, and 4,500 years ago, the disciples of the Buddha and the Taoist sect have disappeared one after another and no longer appear in the world.
So, unless it was born, it came from 4,500 years ago...... At a time when the Mind Cultivation Sect has not yet been completely developed and strengthened, when the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi has not yet collapsed.
If it is a Buddhist treasure inherited at that time, it will be reasonable.
But when Xiao Mo looked at this wooden fish just now, it was very new, and it didn't look like an antiquity that had been circulated for more than 4,500 years, so there must be some secrets in it that Xiao Mo didn't know.
What kind of treasure is this wooden fish, and what is its specific function?
With such doubts in mind, time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the bright moon is setting in the west, and the sun has not yet risen, it is the closest time of the day to light, but the darkest.
Xiao Mo suddenly woke up from his contemplation, looked at the sky outside the window, and instantly realized that the time had come.
If you don't leave, it's too late.
So, he had to restrain his thinking just now that he didn't know where to diverge, concentrate on it, and finally looked back and took a look at the place where he had lived for three years, and the original owner of this body had lived here for more than ten years, and he was really reluctant to leave suddenly.
But Xiao Mo, with great perseverance, gritted his teeth and integrated all the memories of this life into this eye. Then without hesitation, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he took out the three-grade spirit pill that Deacon Xiao sent to him in the afternoon, the Heavenly King Baoxin Pill, from his arms.
The green jade pill bottle was opened, and a fiery red pill was poured out from it, like a strange elixir that was steaming with flames. As soon as the pill came out of the bottle, a strange fragrance instantly diffused.
Xiao Mo did not hesitate, and with one mouth, he slapped this pill into his mouth.
Immediately, he stretched out his hand, pointed at him like a knife, and slammed it towards his throat.
With a soft "bang", a small blood hole suddenly appeared in Xiao Mo's throat, and blood flowed out like a fountain.
And Xiao Mo's body suddenly darkened his eyes, and he fell to the ground with a "plop", knocking down a chair that he had already prepared on the side.
The muffled sound of "bang" is naturally particularly harsh in this dark night.
The deacon of the Xiao family, who had been guarding all night, naturally couldn't ignore such a strange sound, he slowly turned his head and sneered: "Paw baby, it's all this time, what are you doing? Get ready to go on the road!"
However, as soon as the words fell, when he turned back completely, his eyes fell to the window, a shadow lying on the ground, and instantly realized that something was wrong: "It's not good, this kid is too weak-willed, he knows what kind of torture he will go through when he falls into the hands of the Bai family, and he actually killed himself." ”
"No, he must not die. He's dead, how can I give my mission?"
In a hurry, he couldn't care about anything else, and suddenly stretched out a palm and slapped it hard, and the window lattice in front of him shattered.
Deacon Xiao jumped into the room, and with a sweep of his eyes, he saw Xiao Mo, who was bleeding from his throat on the ground, and he didn't know what to do, and he had already cut off his breath, and his face couldn't help but change for a while.
"Damn, sooner or later, I chose to self-harm when the patriarch was about to come to raise someone, didn't this push me into the yellow mud pit?"
He jumped over, stretched out his index finger, and gently probed under the tip of Xiao Mo's nose, not feeling the slightest qi. He tried to cross a few traces of Xinyuan, but Xiao Mo's body temperature was still getting colder and colder, and it was obviously impossible to recover.
At this time, Deacon Xiao was completely panicked, he couldn't care about anything else, his steps were in a hurry, and he ran towards Xiao Mo's courtyard, shouting as he ran: "It's not good, it's not good, Xiao Mo has harmed himself, please the patriarch, please the patriarch!"
The voice became farther and farther away, obviously looking for Xiao Baiqi, the patriarch of the Xiao family.
And after he left, on the ground, Xiao Mo, who had obviously cut off his breath, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the ground again, his eyes shining like the bright moon.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, he tapped twice more at his throat, and immediately stopped the bleeding, and then looked at the back of Deacon Xiao who was rushing away, and sneered: "The golden cicada is out of its shell, and if you care about it, what do you think the Heavenly King Baoxin Pill that I asked you to advance in advance is used for?"
Thinking of this, he felt a little regretful and muttered: "You should be glad that if it weren't for the fact that the gap between your realm and mine was too high, I wasn't sure that I would kill you with one blow when you got close, and there would be an accident, otherwise, you would be a corpse by now." ”
"However, I, Xiao Mo, leave today, and there will always be a time to come back in other days, and it will only let you live in this world for a while longer......"
"Presumably, when you find out that I just faked my death and left early, and you can't find any trace of me, you, the archdeacon of the family who is in charge of guarding me, will not have a good time!"
At the corner of his mouth, a strange ridicule was raised, Xiao Mo knew that he couldn't hide this method for too long.
After a short time, someone will definitely come here to check, and it is not advisable to stay for a long time.
Therefore, he did not hesitate, put some important items that had already been prepared into his sleeves, and then took advantage of the window hole broken by the deacon of the Xiao family to quickly leave in the night.
This was the darkest time before dawn, but it was the beginning of Xiao Mo's hope.
ps: The second one, thank you for the 188 reward that is the most time-frozen, and thank you to other friends who rewarded and threw flowers.
