Volume 1: Everything Is Still Beginning Chapter 6: Deep Cave Treasure Hunting
Seeing the success, it is a pity that the water did not spill out of the bowl as Wan Ningxiang expected, not sprayed out, and did not pour it on everyone.
"Hmmm......"
Looking at Dao Chang's expression, he was not very satisfied, and Wan Ningxiang suddenly looked a lot lower.
"Didn't the Taoist master pass the test?"
Wan Ningxiang asked regretfully.
"In terms of gathering qi, you are much better than ink dust. “
"No, master!"
"Why not? Do you see that people have your first time gathering energy?"
"Well, not really. “
"That's right!"
The Taoist is not disapproving of Mo Chen, he knows that Mo Chen still has a lot of past in his heart, and the pain of losing his mother cannot be forgotten for a long time, for a child of his age, it is too cruel, and gathering qi must be calm and natural, the reason why Wan Ningxiang is not as hard as Mo Chen, is because this child is relatively happy, has no psychological burden, and can quickly calm down.
"That Dao Chief, did you say that I had passed?"
I watched the Taoist and Mo Chen chatting, but forgot that there was an anxious person waiting for an answer.
"Hehe, it's over!"
"Really?"
Wan Ningxiang was so happy that she couldn't wait to tell the whole village, but since she had passed the test, she had entered the Taoist Sect, and this etiquette could not be ignored.
"Wan Ningxiang meets the master!"
"Okay, okay, you don't have to be deliberate about red tape, you have to know that when you enter my door, you have to listen to my teachings, do you know?"
"Yes, master!"
"What about me, what about me?"
This master is before and after the master, Mochen is not happy, no matter what, he is also her senior brother.
"Senior Brother Mochen. “
"Well, Senior Sister Ning Xiang. “
Seeing the two laughing, the Taoist chief did not interfere, after all, there must not be a clean on the way, but it is also a good thing, there is someone around Mochen to chat and make trouble, maybe he can forget about those unhappiness.
"By the way, master, I have something unclear?"
"Huh?"
"Why do you use medicinal herbs in this method of bathing spring?"
"Teaching you the Dao method for the teacher is a quick recovery, and you need medicinal herbs as a guide, so as to save time, consume less true qi, and quickly deal with unexpected things. “
"Isn't it true that I have to carry a medicine basket with you every day?"
Wan Ningxiang pouted and said aggrievedly, she didn't dare to think of such a picture, and it was unimaginable.
"Don't worry, you have your own way for the teacher, you follow me to carry a basket all day long, and you don't want to be a teacher, this will affect the image of my door." “
"By the way, master, just now you and your sister crushed the herbs and sprinkled them into the water, and then used the true qi to drive the water in the bowl to splash it, why don't you just splash it with the bowl? It's still so complicated?"
For the apprentice's doubts, he must be answered, and the Taoist chief smiled slightly
This grass is called: Worry Grass, which has the effect of refreshing the mind, clearing the heart and eyes, and focusing on the state of confusion and drowsiness. But it has not yet been refined, the effect is naturally mediocre, and it is driven by true qi to naturally achieve the best state of medicinal efficacy."
"Well, I see!"
"Do you think that being a teacher is a trick and a bluff?"
"Hehehe, no!"
Mo Chen said no, but in fact, he still thought about it in his heart. In many cases, straightforwardness is the best way to deal with it.
"Okay, Ning Xiang! Since you have come to my door, the teacher will also give you something. “
"Really?"
"Hmm...... But you've got to do me a favor?"
"Help, okay, let's talk about the master first, don't tell me to guard the senior brother like last time!"
Wan Ningxiang said aggrievedly that after the last toss, she knew that it was so painful.
"What? Am I that scary?"
"You don't know, hmph, forget it, master, what are you busy with? “
"Do you have a cave in the back mountain?"
"Well, how does the master know?"
"Who is the master?
"Okay, don't exaggerate being a teacher! Is it true that traveling around the world as a teacher is to drill into a cave?"
"Hey!"
Hearing the Taoist chief say this, it made Wan Ningxiang on the side laugh.
"The master asked why this cave is? I heard from the people in the village that there are fierce beasts in and out of it, and it is very dangerous?"
"This cave is located in a dangerous place, but the surrounding aura is sufficient, the stalactites in the cave are flourishing, the gift to you for the teacher is a thousand years of stalactites, extremely hard, gathering aura for several years, it is beneficial to your cultivation, and it can also help you reduce the consumption of aura. “
After listening to the master's words, the three of them did not stop and walked directly to the mountain.
The secluded mountains and forests even the occasional calls of insects and birds will produce bursts of echoes.
"It's so quiet, it's a little frightening. “
Mo Chen rubbed his arms, only to feel the hairs stand on end.
"There must be no one in the depths of this forest, and that's where there is no popularity. “
The three of them walked deeper and deeper, the sunlight outside could no longer reach the woods, the thick fog had obscured the road in front of them, and the visibility was only visible to each other.
"Master, how do you find the location of the cave in such a harsh environment?"
The road ahead is almost unclear, let alone looking for a cave, whether you can go back between dark is a problem, Wan Ningxiang couldn't help but worry.
"Don't panic, you have your own way for the teacher. “
After the Taoist chief finished speaking, he took out a compass from his sleeve pocket. It was obvious that the compass pointer had been disturbed, and it was not a good thing to keep rotating, Ning Xiang and Mo Chen looked a little worried, but seeing that the master was so indifferent, their hearts were a little more stable.
"Draw the qi into the plate, and search for the spirit with the spirit. “
A white light shot out from the master's finger and poured into the compass, and suddenly the needle stopped turning, and after a few seconds, it slowly rotated again, and this time it was not a random rotation.
"Let's go!"
According to the compass's instructions, the three of them soon came to the entrance of the cave, and this cave entrance is estimated to only be passed back and forth by one person, it is not the kind of easy to find as Mo Chen imagined, there are weeds everywhere, snakes and insects are running around, which increases the difficulty of finding it.
"Senior Sister Ning Xiang, haven't you heard that there are fierce beasts coming and going? Do you see that there is nothing along the way except snakes, insects, rats, ants, flowers, birds, trees?"
"What? Do you really want to have a beast?"
"Of course I don't dare to think about the two of us, but if I follow the master, I'm not afraid, besides, I haven't seen enough of so many treasures and moves from the master!"
Although Mochen was the first to get started, he was taught according to the script along the way, and it was rare to have the opportunity to see the master perform, so he must be very willing.
"What's the matter?
"Don't dare master!"
"Hmph, I'll go back and copy a hundred heart methods for me, so as not to lose the courtesy. “
"Huh?"
"Haha, you deserve it!"
At this moment, a strong wind blew from the entrance of the cave, and a rumbling sound was faintly heard inside the cave.
"What sound?"
"The wind?"
"Hmm...... Come here in vain!"
Mo Chen and Wan Ningxiang walked up to the master, and a golden rune flashed on the foreheads of the two of them.
"Master, this is?"
"The seal of dispelling miasma, the gust of wind and miasma just came to my face, in order to ensure safety, so I hereby draw a seal. “
"Thank you, master!"
"Let's go, let's go in!"
The entrance of the cave is not big, even the position of one person is not enough, and you need to enter sideways, the Taoist chief goes first, and the two apprentices then walk into the cave, it is dark, but at least you know that there are stone walls all around and there is no branching way.
Seeing the light at the entrance of the cave getting smaller and smaller, it proves that they are going deeper and deeper.
"Master, this cave is a little strange?"
"Huh?"
"You can clearly smell the miasma at the entrance of the cave, but after you come in, you don't have it at all?"
"That is, I heard that this kind of cave has not been exposed to sunlight for many years, and the temperature difference between the inside and outside is large, and there is obvious dampness in the cave, but now that we come in, not only is the cave not damp, but there is no smell of mildew and dampness?"
"Another thing is that this kind of cave is best for bats or snakes that like to grow wet, but it was clear that we didn't see anything along the way. “
Mo Chen's and Wan Ningxiang's skepticism and analysis are enough to prove their knowledge and understanding of the environment, which makes the master very satisfied.
呲~
The Taoist leader lit a fire fold, and the three of them saw a lot better.
"Wow, that's a lot of stalactites. “
Under the light of the flames, the stalactites reflect all kinds of light and shadow, and for this scene, the most interesting is of course the little girl Wan Ningxiang.
"Master, there's another hole here!"
Ink dust patrolled the surroundings and showed little interest in the colorful stalactites.
"Except for this one hole, the others are stone walls, nothing special, should we go in?"
"Go in, maybe the thousand-year-old stalactite that the master said is inside. “
Just as the three of them started, they only heard a loud roar in the cave, and a gust of wind blew out of the cave, and the cave shook violently, causing most of the stalactites to fall, and the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the three of them couldn't help but retreat a few meters.
"Master, what's it?"
"Hurry up and find a place to hide, this momentum is not good. “
It is not the best strategy to turn around and escape, and the passage in the cave is narrow, and the three of them are also inconvenient, and the vibration is violent, if it is buried in the road by rocks, there is almost no life, fortunately there are many stalactites in the cave, and it is not difficult to find a hiding place.
As it gets closer, rapid breathing can be heard, and the sound of breathing is clearly not human.
"Is there really a beast?"
After spending too much time in the cave, the dim environment in front of him has improved somewhat, and he can still see the surroundings clearly, and when he was hiding, the Taoist chief threw the fire fold on the edge of the cave entrance, and he could see it more clearly.
I saw a huge face poking out of the entrance of the cave, with two ears longer than the top, inciting a few times, as if listening to some movement, and under the ears were two humanoid arms, which could completely see the solid and bulging muscles, and the arms were swaying back and forth. Although the object's eyes were small, the faint light of the fire could reveal that it was looking around, and the nostrils were constantly emitting a thick mist, and the fire was strong and weak under the impetus of the air current. A large mouth that almost occupies the whole face is closed one by one, and more than three or four inches of teeth can be seen in the opening and closing, and the shape is like a chisel and extremely sharp.
"How could there be such a monster in this cave?"
The Taoist was a little suspicious and even surprised in his heart.
"Master, what is this?"
"If you want to say that it looks like a lion, it is also a little like an ape, and only the lower body is the same, but this upper body is too ugly. “
Wan Ningxiang only said one of its points, not so much ugly as ferocious, just as she finished speaking, the beast suddenly had two ears erected, its eyes bulged, its mouth made a cooing sound, and it immediately ran to the direction of the stone stalactite where Wan Ningxiang was hiding.
"It's not good, Ningxiang come here!"
Mo Chen exclaimed, Wan Ningxiang reacted immediately, and a fish jumped and rolled to Mo Chen's side.
