Epilogue Escape
Let's say that the two of them ran all the way, and they had reached the front of the formation.
Huang Donglai was running, and he had already seen that the last bit of incense was about to fall, so he hurriedly shouted: "There's no time!
Sun Yihuan was not verbose, and when he heard the sound, he was a sliding shovel and slid towards his "corpse".
Huang Donglai, on the other hand, jumped on the spot three meters away from that formation......
But seeing that after Huang Donglai's feet left the ground, he became a "cross-legged" state as soon as he retracted it in the air, and his hands had already begun to pinch the formula, and he was already chanting a mantra in his mouth.
Two seconds later, at the same time that Sun Yi's "soul" slid back into his body, Huang Donglai also landed on his buttocks, and directly "sitted" into the formation with a long jump, and completed the process of chanting the mantra.
It was at this moment that the last wisp of incense ...... Drifted away.
And with the incense dissipating together, there were also those green soul lights in the sights of Sun and Huang.
A suffocating darkness suddenly engulfed them, as if it were about to wipe them all clean.
Fortunately...... After a breath, their eyes lit up again.
When they came back to their senses, they had returned to the rice shop, and the light source not far away was the oil lamp that the rice shop shopkeeper had lit when they entered the house.
"Huh......" Huang Donglai finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, "Damn, I'm scared to death, I thought I had failed just now." ”
Usually, even at this moment, Sun Yihuan wants to raise the bar with him and complain to each other, but now, Sun Yihuan just sat up, and before he could speak, his face changed sharply, showing a painful look.
Immediately after, Brother Sun casually grabbed a half-empty rice jar placed on the ground beside him, lowered his head and threw up a "uh-huh" inside.
His wave ...... Let's put it this way, tonight's meal, he is equivalent to not eating, and he has a lot of bile bitterness.
This is not over, what is even more strange is that the food and liquid he spit out at this moment are all pitch black, and there are bursts of pungent odors.
"Brother Huang...... What's the situation with me, should I die again?" Sun Yihuan looked at the things in the vat and was frightened, and quickly turned around and asked.
When Huang Donglai heard this, he leaned over and glanced at it with disgust, before replying: "Don't worry, it's nothing, it's just because you've been to 'that kind of place', so after you come back, your body will expel the 'dirty' things that your soul has contaminated there, and ...... The poison in your body that caused you to die should also come out with it, which is a good thing. As he spoke, he pointed to Sun Yihuan's right cheek, "I don't believe you touch, when I brought you in, the right side of your face was still swollen, and a large area was black and purple, but now you can't even see the wound." ”
Huang Donglai's explanation, in fact, he himself is not very sure, he just half-guesses and half-guesses based on the knowledge he has learned.
However, he is generally right - people who "return to yang" will basically go through such a stage, because the reorganized Three Souls and Seven Spirits have their own "new" power, which can expel the fatal injuries, poisons, diseases, etc. in the human body together with the "dark qi and dust" contaminated by their souls in the underworld, and even make organs "regenerate" and "self-healing" to a certain extent.
This phenomenon can be said to be a kind of reward or mercy for those who have successfully survived the "death calamity" by the law of yin and yang between heaven and earth...... Without this mechanism, the vast majority of people who "return to yang" will die immediately because they return to a body that has long since failed.
"Oh...... That's right. Sun Yihu listened and nodded, but soon he remembered something, "Oh no, why didn't you vomit?"
"That, is the cultivator fake?" Huang Donglai began to pretend to be forced at that time, "Brother has been cultivating in the mountain for more than half a year, and he just went to the underworld a little bit, so why was he invaded by the filth?"
"Okay, good, Brother Huang is awesome...... Hmm...... "Sun Yihuan dealt with it casually, then buried his head again and vomited again.
When Brother Sun vomited, Brother Huang told him about what happened after the two of them were attacked, such as how he killed the sneak attacker, how he brought Sun Yihuan to this rice shop, and how he did it, "chasing souls in the underworld......
After talking for a while, the shopkeeper of the rice shop also came out of the back room.
This shopkeeper obviously has a lot of experience in dealing with Taoist priests, so as soon as he heard someone talking in the outhouse, and his tone seemed to be quite relaxed, he knew that Huang Donglai's business had been done.
"Huh...... Xiaodao, seeing that you are not very old, your skills are good, and the dead can be saved. The shopkeeper looked at Sun Yihuan, who was "coming back to life", but he was not very surprised.
"Yes, thank you, shopkeeper, for your help. Huang Donglai also hurried to thank others.
"Don't, this Taoist master, don't mention the word 'righteousness'. The shopkeeper waved his hand, "Let's be vulgar, we can get the money." ”
The shopkeeper is also a person who understands, and the situation is urgent and it is important to save people, so Huang Dong came to withdraw money, but he didn't take it; but now that the person has been saved, what kind of "righteousness" can we talk about...... In case the other party wants to go the way of repaying the debt, he will be polite here, and he will have to lose money.
"Oh, that's easy to say. Huang Donglai gently kicked Sun Yi, who was squatting on the ground, "Brother Sun, people helped save your life, you can do it." ”
Sun Yixiang had already vomited at this time, or he couldn't vomit anymore, so he let go of the rice jar that he had been holding for a long time, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, stood up and looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Thank you, then you see...... How much should I give?"
As soon as the shopkeeper heard this kid's tone, he knew that this was also a businessman.
At that time, most buyers and sellers understood: the buyer paid the money, try not to mention the specific amount before the other party, and should let the seller collect the money first, otherwise you will be a layman and deserve to be slaughtered.
"Shhh...... Well, this one. The shopkeeper put on a very embarrassed expression, and swept the room with his eyes, "The incense burner and bowl, even if it is washed, can still be used...... But I don't dare to use it anymore, and the half bucket of fresh glutinous rice, and the half of the white rice that you have polluted, are not cheap...... Oh yes, I can't ask for that jar anymore, you have to take it with you, and ah, the floor is painted like this, and I have to use a lot of effort and a lot of water to wipe it clean...... As for the ...... I opened the door for you in the middle of the night to help save your life," he touched his beard and rolled his eyes a few times, "I want you five taels of silver in total, isn't it too much?"
Sun Yihuan listened to this, and said in his heart: Just the small incense burner on the table, a big broken bowl, and a broken jar, I am afraid that these three things will be difficult to take to the pawnshop for ten dollars, right? Even if you add the half bucket of glutinous rice and half a jar of rice, it will be worth one or two silver in the sky; as for the array painted by Zhu Mo on the ground, tomorrow you can ask the guy who comes to work to pick up some water and wipe it? Even if there is no such array on the ground, do you have to give extra money to let your buddies wipe the ground? This is also costless.
Of course, things have a price, but human lives are priceless, so what if people don't open the door tonight? Or don't cooperate with Huang Donglai so much, or even make trouble for him?
From this point of view, it is indeed not too much for the other party to ask for five taels.
"Okay!" Sun Yihun thought about it, and then returned, "Five taels is five taels." ”
As mentioned earlier, Sun Yihui is not stingy, he just cares about whether the money spent is worth it - if it is worth a few thousand taels, he also feels pain if it is not worth a few taels.
Moreover, even if he thinks it is worth it, he must be skillful when giving money, if he gives it too easily, it will make the other party have the idea of "this person is so rich, but unfortunately I have less", so that the other party may be unwilling and even resentful afterwards...... Therefore, even if this amount of money is really not much for Brother Sun, he still has to pretend to feel that "it is not easy to give".
"But the shopkeeper, we have something to say first. Sun Yihuan said, he had already taken out five taels of silver, and slapped it in the shopkeeper's hand, but at the same time, he firmly grasped the shopkeeper's wrist and did not let the other party take it back, "You should also understand that our two brothers are not ordinary people, what about the amount of money...... It's not small, you have to take it steadily, what happened here tonight ......"
"Understood, understood...... "The shopkeeper still doesn't understand this?" He didn't have to wait for Brother Sun to finish speaking, and then said, "I've never seen you, and I've been sleeping in bed tonight." ”
"Hmm...... Thanks a lot. After receiving this reply, Sun Yihuan let go of the other party's hand with satisfaction.
............
The next day, early in the morning, the news of Sun Yihui and Huang Donglai's attack at the inn spread quickly throughout Dengzhou City.
But the person who delivered the news naturally didn't know that Sun Yihui was attacked and killed in seconds last night, and he "died once", people only knew that Chang Youfeng, the "scorpion" in the "snake and scorpion spider toad", laid a net in the inn and ambushed the poison of East and West, and was killed as a result.
At this moment, the strength of Sun and Huang was further overestimated by the colleagues in the rivers and lakes, because judging from the scene left in the inn lobby, the battle laid by Chang Youfeng, even if Di Buti stepped in, he might not be able to retreat......
Speaking of which, Di Buti really came to this inn this day.
Because in Di Buti's eyes, or from the perspective of the Cao Gang, Shuanghe is kind to them, and the Di Gang Master doesn't know that these two people pretended to be old men yesterday and came to the Seven Heroes Club in the name of "Mixed Yuan Star Gate", and he thought that these two young heroes came to Dengzhou City but did not go to the Seven Heroes Society.
It's a pity that this morning, Gang Master Di and some other martial arts people who wanted to come to see Shuanghe with different mentalities or purposes all rushed to nothing.
These two turtles...... Oh no...... The two scheming "young heroes" were very scared after the attack last night, and they were afraid that there would be other dangers here.
Therefore, after rescuing the people in the inn who were stunned and explaining the situation, they took their luggage and ran out of the city before dawn.
The two of them have a long trip this time, they have to start from Dengzhou, go all the way to the southwest, enter Shudi, go to Fushun, and go to Huang Donglai's hometown.
And along the way, what Shuang Harmonic saw and encountered, there were also strange things, strange dangers, and dangers and harmonic ......
The details in this one, let's get to the next volume...... Again table.
