Chapter 20: Gifts (3)
It's the middle of the night again.
"Are you sure this is really okay?" said Yingluo's weak voice.
"There's a camera up there, if we get caught in it, how do we explain it to others?"
"The surrounding area is so tightly cordoned off that not even a fly can fly in, but we somehow went in, isn't this a clear way to tell others that we have a problem!"
"It's okay, I've covered the camera with a leaf. Zhao Ziyu had a faint glow on his hand, and raised his hand to point to another vine, only to see that the flowers on the green leaves slowly bloomed at a speed visible to the naked eye, falling down to cover another hidden camera.
Yingluo watched the flowers bloom, and suddenly asked, "Wow, so handsome, when it comes to winter, can you help my daffodils to promote flowers?" ”
Zhao Ziyu was speechless.
"Can ......"
Yingluo looked at the cordon and began to chatter again: "But no, this is just monitoring, there are still living people in this fence, it is said that the armed police are on duty in turn, and they will never let idle people wait in." ”
Zhao Ziyu also looked at Xie Daozhi, as if he had questions.
"Trust me, okay?" Xie Daozhi said softly, "I won't put you in danger, don't worry." ”
Yingluo still wanted to speak, but found that she didn't know what to say, Xie Daozhi's voice was too warm, as if the last time she held his hand in the small garden, the beautiful voice was not hurried, it was very convincing, and she felt very secure for no reason.
She nodded, obediently following.
Xie Daozhi led her through the cordon, through the fence, and straight to the tree that had been dug up by the roots and was surrounded by unrecognizable trees.
Zhao Ziyu snorted coldly, recited a trick in a daze, used the wind control technique to climb over the wall, and followed behind the two.
There is really no one, and if you want to come to thank Daozhi, you are not rash to take them on an adventure, you must have stepped on it a long time ago.
"This is it, take out the mirror. Less than ten steps away from the tree, Xie Daozhi stood still.
Yingluo took out the mirror as she said, but there was no one, where to look? She looked at Xie Daozhi with puzzled eyes.
"Just stand here and don't move, just point your mirror at this tree and tell me what you see in a moment. ”
Xie Daozhi sat down cross-legged beside her, solemnly assumed a Taoist meditation posture, closed his eyes, pinched his hands, and began to recite a mantra.
Yingluo remembered that no matter what spell he cast, he had never recited a mantra before, and he had reached the state of what he said, "move with your heart, and urge living beings with your thoughts".
And this spell still needs to be chanted, which shows that it is a very difficult spell.
Could it be dangerous?
Zhao Ziyu said softly: "Don't look around, focus on looking in the mirror." ”
He had already guessed what Xie Daozhi wanted to do.
Xie Daozhi's voice is very good, soft and firm, and when he sings some of the more awkward syllables, he is not a little jerky, which shows that it is not the first time to cast a spell, and Yingluo's heart slowly relaxed.
She suddenly felt that her surroundings seemed to be darkened, and it was getting quieter and quieter, and there was not a trace of wind......
"Senior, do you feel ......," she whispered.
"Don't speak. Zhao Ziyu stopped softly.
It seems that everything is still, don't you think? Yingluo doesn't feel the vitality of the flowers and trees around her at all, as if she has entered an isolated barrier, and everything in this barrier is dead and silent.
She looked intently at her mirror, but there was still nothing, and her hands were sore.
However, when she looked away from the mirror and looked ahead, she was stunned......
"Senior, that tree ......" she remembered his advice and hurriedly closed her mouth, but her eyes widened in disbelief.
The big tree that had been knocked down by the excavator was standing right now, and everything around it seemed to have returned to its original state, could it be the legendary "time lapse"?
Xie Daozhi's incantation had stopped, but he didn't open his eyes, nor did he mean "the spell is over, we're done", on the contrary, if you pay attention to his handsome face, you will find that a drop of sweat is slowly flowing down the bridge of his high nose.
Yingluo knew that it was powerful, so she was busy with Zhao Ziyu, staring at the mirror.
Obviously there was no wind, but there was a chill behind the ears, and a sad female voice sounded: "Please, please, let me go, I won't tell anyone...... Ah......h
"I don't want to die...... I'm just starting to live a free life......"
"I'm still young...... Why do I ......?"
"No...... You can't ......."
The whining voices slowly dissipated.
A vague shadow slowly appeared under the tree, and he walked forward without hurry, and stood still under the tree.
Zhao Ziyu hurriedly held the mirror in Yingluo's hand and followed the shadow, and the two saw that the yellow light in the mirror was sheng, which was completely different from Yingluo's glowing light, but the flickering of this light was different from everyone, not one bright and one extinguished, but yellow and purple alternately, compared to it, the purple light was slightly dim.
"Are there two people?" Zhao Ziyu muttered.
Yingluo saw that the shadow had slowly left, and hurriedly said to Xie Daozhi: "Brother Xie, we have seen it." ”
"Brother Xie?"
"Don't bother him, this enchantment was made by him, the 'instant memory' of the dying person, that is, the last picture of the dead person, although we are in the enchantment, we are extra people, so we must not speak and move, affect this enchantment. Zhao Ziyu said softly.
Sure enough, Xie Daozhi quickly began to chant the mantra again, but this time it was very short, and soon, everyone could feel the wind and clouds shaking, and the fragrance of plants, trees and flowers.
Yingluo looked at the tree, and sure enough, she was unlucky and sadly dug down and lay aside.
It should be over.
Yingluo stuffed the mirror into Zhao Ziyu's hand, half-knelt beside Xie Daozhi, hugged his shoulder and said, "Are you okay, Brother Xie." ”
Xie Daozhi's face was pale, but he still gave her a smile: "After all, I am an old man who has cultivated for more than a thousand years, and it will be fine soon to rest." ”
Yingluo smiled: "You also admit it." ”
"In front of you young people, it's not okay to disobey the old. Xie Daozhi continued to joke with her very face-savingly.
"That person is indeed an earth system, and his cultivation should be above me. Zhao Ziyu said: "Moreover, there is probably another person." ”
"Yes, yes, yes. Yingluo added: "It's so bright and bright yellow, there's a little bit of bright purple light, and we found two people." ”
"Let's get out of here first. Xie Daozhi got up and helped Yingluo up.
"Wait a minute!" Zhao Ziyu's rare frightened voice said: "Look at it! The mirror is on again!"
