Chapter 6: The Evil Side
"Save Me ......"
"Please, help me find a doctor..... I can't stand it, it's itching to death......."
The torn placket was all a lush pale yellow color, Lu Erlai was rolling on the ground with his heart torn and lungs, still scratching, chicken feathers fluttering in the air, and the people in the village hurriedly moved back, for fear that they would become like him.
"This laizi, yes!"
“...... God couldn't look at it, and cast a spell to punish him. ”
"Maybe it's a master, a few days ago, I seemed to see a Taoist priest passing by. ”
"This guy wanders around all day long, peeking at my daughter..... he didn't kill him, it's his fate!"
"Your daughter, her face is the same as a hemp cake, she hasn't married in her twenties, who is blind will fall in love with ......"
"There are always blind people..... hey, you are looking for a fight!"
.....
In the sound of talking from ear to ear, Lu Liangsheng, who was standing behind the crowd, looked at the figures rolling on the ground and howled, and just wanted to step forward to say a few words, when he suddenly covered his forehead, he was a little dizzy, he felt dizzy, and he heard the voices around him, all of which were a little blurry.
"Brother, are you okay?" Lu Xiaoxian, who was beside him, noticed that he was abnormal, raised his little face and asked.
Lu Liangsheng shook his head: "It's okay, it's bloody and a little uncomfortable, I'll walk around." ”
A little weak, from his sister's puzzled sight, he walked towards the house, stopped at the courtyard gate, leaned against the fence, and saw that the ground was rotating slightly.
"You can't really get the cold, right?"
Shaking his head, he endured the discomfort, turned around and walked towards the outside of the village, the voices of the people gathered there and Lu Erlai's screams sounded faintly behind him, and in his staggering steps, Lu Liangsheng looked at the road that meandered to Qixia Mountain under his feet, thinking about some things in his mind.
..... was fine yesterday......
By the way, Master ..... said that if the cultivation is not deep, the indiscriminate use of spells will cause some damage to the body, can't this be the case?
In his thoughts, he unconsciously went up the mountain road, supported the tree by the roadside, walked a distance, turned a hidden fork, and came to the mountain wall halfway up the mountain, and couldn't hold on, and threw himself in front of the boulder.
"Master....."
As he shouted weakly, he felt the ground shake, and in front of his prostrate sight, the boulder moved heavily, and the earth was squeezed to one side, drawing a ravine.
Half of the hole was exposed, and faintly, the silhouette of a person seemed to come out of it and walk towards him.
When a pair of steps approached the line of sight, Lu Liangsheng only felt that his body was light, and the whole person fell into darkness, his mental exhaustion was a little disordered, and he vaguely felt that he was taken into the grotto by the master, and the boulder rumbled back to its original position.
"Master....."
"Don't speak, you've only been practicing for a few days, so you used magic indiscriminately, but fortunately you came in time, otherwise your life would not be guaranteed. ”
The short and simple conversation stopped, the weak consciousness dimmed, and when he woke up again, a slightly bitter smell permeated, Liangsheng opened his eyes, the cave lights were warm and yellow, the two-tiered small bookshelf was placed on the stone bed where he was lying, facing the wall inward, the old man was sitting on the stone bench opposite, looking at him, and the small ding next to him had a popping and boiling sound.
Seeing Lu Liangsheng wake up, the old man took out the delicate porcelain bowl without saying a word, and scooped the soup out of the ding.
"Drank it. ”
"Yes....." Lu Liangsheng propped himself up, his head was still a little painful, but he was no longer so dizzy, and took the porcelain bowl handed over, the soup was dark and viscous, and the bubbles that came out with residual heat burst open, and there was a disgusting smell.
looked at the old man over there, hesitated for a moment, held his breath, and drank the bowl of soup in one go, the bitterness and fishy spicy temperature ran down his throat to his lower abdomen, almost making him vomit.
"Liangsheng, you have a simple personality and enough heart, I didn't explain it to you clearly as a teacher before, either you have cultivated magic or you are a person in the Tao, cultivation and life are the same, and you have to be divided into three, five, nine and so on, you can't even be considered a beginner now. ”
Lu Liangsheng sat there, pinching the porcelain bowl, unable to speak bitterly, so he had to quietly listen to the master continue.
"..... but your talent and roots are very good, you have reached the lower level of Qi cultivation Kaidan in a few days, and the decoction that the teacher just gave you can not only calm your injuries, but also help you break through the threshold and reach Kaidan, then you can step into the door of cultivation with one foot. ”
"Qi training?"
The old man got up and took the porcelain bowl from the young man's hand, and finally had a trace of expression on his face, and smiled: "There are two kinds of qi practice, the lower is called Kaidan, the middle is called Jutian, the upper is the practice of qi, and the back is more Zhuji, Jiedan, and Yuanying...... In every realm, there are two small realms, and the long road of cultivation is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and it is difficult for people inside the door to find it. ”
Putting down the porcelain bowl, the old man sat back, and with a flick of the sleeves of his robe, the boulder outside slowly opened.
"It's not too early, go back early, don't worry your parents, when the injury improves, you come back again, and help you break through the Kaidan small realm for the teacher." ”
"Oh. ”
Lu Liangsheng couldn't figure out the few words that the master said for a while, so he bowed respectfully to the old man before slowly withdrawing here.
Thundered......
The boulder closed again, and in the grotto, which was covered little by little, the corners of the old man's mouth suddenly opened, and a touch of scarlet popped out, and then retracted.
On top of the wide sleeves, there were black bumps on the wrists, which were instantly covered by the old man.
"Okay....... It's time to pick some mountain spirits and spiritual root tonics..... add them together....."
The boulder snapped together.
"..... should be able to repair the old man's injuries. ”
A hoarse, low murmur echoed.
After seeing that the boulder was closed and restored to its original appearance, and the master could not be seen inside, he bowed respectfully and walked down the mountain.
It was almost noon, and if he was in a coma for only three or four hours, his parents would not be looking for him everywhere, but when he thought of the master, "He is an old man who is injured, and he can still save me..."
When I think of this, my heart may not be without warmth, at this time the spirit has improved a lot, looking back at the direction that has been hidden by the bushes behind me, the sunshine of laughter.
After a while, I turned out of the mountain road and got on the dirt road back to the village, and found that there were few farmers in the fields.
"Taigong, why didn't anyone come out to do work today?"
Lu Taigong opened his eyes slightly, and his mouth with a few teeth missing laughed: "They, they all went to the broken temple to see Lu Erlai's ugly appearance." ”
"Broken temple?" Lu Liangsheng frowned slightly, and looked in the direction of the east of the village with some doubts.
"How can people have chicken feathers, it must be punished by the gods, someone gave Lu Erlai an idea, let him go to the broken temple to worship God, maybe this begging for mercy, it will be fine, and the others will follow to see the excitement. ”
On the mountainside of the road in the east of the village towards the half-mile road of Fushui County, over a few big trees that are covered, a ruined temple stands there, abandoned for many years, the plaque with the inscription 'Mountain Temple' is crawling full of dead vines, leaning against the collapsed half-section of the earthen wall, surrounded by weeds, the sculpture of the mountain god in the temple has a broken neck, and the head of the mud fetus is crooked on the ground.
On weekdays, the villagers rarely come here, and the occasional strange cry of birds and birds in the woods makes it quite eerie.
At present, the weeds are being trampled neatly, and when Lu Liangsheng came over, more than 40 villagers gathered outside the temple, looking inside, and some climbed directly onto the earthen wall and rode onto it.
In the temple.
Lu Erlai, whose whole body was covered with chicken feathers, was covered in blood at the moment, trembling on the ground, kowtowing to the mountain god.
Bang!
Bang!
Blood oozed from his forehead.
