Chapter 180: The mural is like a demonic shadow

Suddenly the wind was like a fierce one, dragging the grass and vines on the edge of the cliff to swing, wandering the mountains and scattered people with small steps, sweating in green clothes, encountering the hut house that was erected at will in the distance, easily jumping to a rock, looking at it, and said with a smile: "Tibetan Taoist friends, do you know who lived in this house before?"

Li Shuishan asked with interest: "Who is it? Isn't it also like Brother Youshan?"

You Shansanren sighed, brushed the hot sweat on his forehead, and recalled: "I came here a few months ago, and found an ancient old man, snake-shaped white face, rough skin and short hands, he looked nervous, but greedy and speechless, he told me personally that he was a person from the flash sect, in order to find a great opportunity, broke his own cultivation, buried his own humanity, stepped over the forbidden land of the mountain, and survived to this place. He cultivated to be strong, I am afraid that he is not far from the Daohua Realm, but he has already found his own mountain and lost such a green mountain.

He hid here, watched the Luo Demon swallow water, and absorbed the aura, but the opportunity was not enough, so he left.

He once fought against Luo Demon for several days, fabricating a holiday, simulating the refraction of sunlight, stimulating the demon's eyes, forcing Luo Demon to break through his water hole, spit out drooping fluid, and nourishing his body, but it seems that there is too much rotten breath, and I am afraid that it is not enough to absorb the heart, and it is difficult to Taoize. ”

Li Shuishan's expression was pale, and he also sighed: "It's a pity. Is it so difficult to take a state of mind?"

You Shansanren said calmly: "The mood tests the mood and belonging, even if you find the mountain you are satisfied with, it is very easy to get lost without roots in your heart, and you will never see the day." ”

Li Shuishan said sadly: "I heard that people without roots seek the meaning of apricot blossoms, which can make up for it?"

You Shansanren nodded, and said carefully: "Like people like me, only home can bury the roots of the heart, the nurturing of parents, the call of hometown, the playmate of childhood, the childish childlike heart... These are the main things that control the mind, but the memories of the past that the mind ingests, as well as one's own fate with mortal earth.

I don't know if you know the difference between ordinary people and cultivators? Cultivators are stronger than mortals in terms of physique and consciousness, but they have one shortcoming, that is, they will get lost. When we wander in the endless practice, without the restrictions of some natural laws of mortal earth, the divine thoughts drift away with the flowing water, the detritus of the stars... Slowly dissipate...

We have to be bold and try and we can't turn back once we enter.

Birth, old age, sickness and death, love and hatred... Maybe they will all accompany us, but as the restraint decreases, it will always become extreme, some will end up indifferent, some will end up miserable, and some will end up calm... After death, the soul floats in the void, and does not enter the yellow spring of mortal dust..."

"Therefore, the sustenance of Xinghua Village is just an ethereal existence, staying in your fantasy! But in what I have heard, there are still strong monks who survive and practice with the illusion of 'Xinghua Village', and they can only live in their dreams forever and cannot escape."

Li Shuishan was a little sad, and recalled memories, but he always felt that there were a lot of things missing, and when he entered the hut, the old and dilapidated tables and chairs in front of him, the rotten wine and stinky water, the cranky ground, the wooden stakes and the brackets, the wooden planks were slanted, and they became rotten after the erosion of wind and rain, but the baffle that opened the window was bright and bright, as if he had brushed a poop with some precious liquid, and stepped on the hay lightly, clicking.

You Shansan said: "The wooden board on the window you see is smeared with the drooping liquid of the Luo demon, it will not decay and break in the wind and rain, and it will maintain a bright dark color, this is a good baby, if I have the opportunity, I also want to take a little."

Come back and apply it to my skin and keep it looking..."

After laughing, the two turned to leave, after walking through the hut, they opened a flat big leaf, the white clouds on the clear face were soft, and he shook his hand sleeve, and in a blink of an eye, he pushed away a cloud road, and the gap in the middle was directly facing a thousand zhang cave, the cave was covered with ice-like crystal stones, emitting translucent white light, and the wrinkled soil around it was like a roll of linen clothes stacked, revealing a viscous and solidified mud with saliva.

The surface of the lake that meandered down, there was no water at all, and it emitted a stench of mud, and the wandering people signaled to cover their noses with their sleeves and slowly walked down the stones.

The turtle holding it in his left hand poked out his head and took a sharp breath, trembling and shrunk his head on Li Shuishan's shoulder, he complained while complaining: "The demonic aura here is very strong, I'm afraid there is a monster whose cultivation is not low." The mucus is silky and spiritual, and the years of practice are not low... As for you, hey, don't worry, it's asleep and won't wake up for months..."

Li Shuishan walked down very naturally, the slope of the slope was like looking up at the crescent moon from below, and walked cautiously for a while, and heard the people who traveled to the mountains say: "When I was in the mortal world, a poet told me that if I have a heart, I must travel to the mountains, the mountains have spirituality, and I know the hearts of people, although it will not change with your state of mind, but your echoes can echo through the empty valley, and your troubles will disappear with the branches and leaves, the morning dew, and the afterglow of the sunset." What you want can be condensed and dispersed through the mountains and water, and return to yourself. ”

"Over the years, I have traveled around some mountains in Jiangzhou, including the Amorous Mountain, the Baiyi Mountain, the Luoyan Mountain, and a secluded mountain... The water lakes I walked the most. If you calculate carefully, I have walked more than 50 places, and the lakes in each place are different, there are Luoyuan Lake that ripples my heart, Ruan Yuan Lake with beautiful scenery, Yanbo Lake with uncertain waves, Drunken Ape Lake with snakes and dragons, and Sunset Lake with a wide white boat and a flat and straight lake..."

"This mountain is green, and there are demons, but in this cave, my voice can echo, hehe.." He walked to the cave first, lay his head on his stomach, opened his two palms close to his mouth, and called softly: "You Mountain..."

The cave reverberates, "Touring the mountains, touring the mountains... Touring the mountains.."

He shouted again: "If you want to see the cave of the Luo Demon in the lower mountains, if you have a fate, can you take a little drooping liquid and use it?" It's decided!"

The echo continued, Li Shuishan smiled bitterly, You Shansanren still had such a childlike side, and walked into the cave with him, the water droplets snapped, sharp stalactites, and many silver-colored grass stems emitted a hazy mist, the surface was smooth and cold, and Youshan Sanren was barefoot and not afraid, and walked in with a smile, as if something was touching the soles of his feet, itching.

Click.

A yellow and white stone dripping falls on the smooth ground, digging out a big pit, there is a clear water shadow in it, slowly sliding down the wet stone, after three or four hundred steps, I see a stone wall, the irregular stone painting left after the lake water is washed out is particularly beautiful.

The stone wall is three or four arms long, five feet high, and a stone scroll that looks like a human face emerges in the lower left corner, although the facial features are somewhat distorted, but the large combination is reasonable, if it is deliberate. In the upper right corner, there is a one-eyed demon dragon body with white smoke, the figure is fluttering, the front body is hidden, the back tail is floating clouds, the height is undulating, like a dragon demon swallowing human face, hanging on his dragon's mouth, the ravines below are uneven, and the winding is endless.

Li Shuishan exclaimed softly: "Nature's magic work?"

You Shansanren patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't care, I can see a few paintings of people like this every time I come, and they change their patterns." If you like it, you can watch it for a while, but I still recommend that you look deeper, it will surprise you even more. ”

Li Shuishan nodded, put away his eyes and walked into the dark place with him.

What resurfaces in the eyes is a realistic picture scroll, a mountain and a river, there are water and stones, not to mention some simple and rough weeping stone clouds, printed with a pair of white-haired hands, pointing to the ground, patting some of the wind's prints, all the romantic things are alive, Zhoushan with white birds, flying clouds and red water waves, a ditch for fear of crawling out of some strange insects and beasts.

A ray of light was brought in by the two of them.

The soft stones here are shattered, and it seems to be ashamed to meet people.

A soft tentacle beast, narrow eyes, four hooves on the ground, twisting its head and crooked neck, surrounded by branches and white wood, microwaves in the water, the rocks are very strong, a few feet behind, there is a pair of charming eyes, evil like a night ghost, greedy like a big man in the cold wind, eating warm wine and drinking tea, unbearable, cocked nose and small mouth, pushing back There is a crane man with a white face, holding a gravel round crutch in his hand, sitting crookedly on the ground and panting, it seems to be very anxious...

There are dozens of figures carved in stone on the stone wall, according to the movement of the water, it must end up here, Li Shuishan stopped, only to find that there was a beast face under his feet, it was a white fox-like mouth corner, as if smiling at him, a few steps back.

"Is it magical?" asked with a smile, he knew this place well, even in the dry cave, those slightly changed wall stones, he would remember it in his heart, he rarely saw such a wonderful scene, if it was fleeting, then when he thought about this experience in the future, he rubbed his head and sighed too regretfully.

The peachwood sword on Li Shuishan's back moved slightly, and he gently patted it and flew into his hand, and the sword surface appeared like a flowing water wave, causing the restlessness of the surrounding sky, and the sound of flowing water was everywhere.

Li Shuishan looked around carefully, and asked the wooden sword to expand its arm's length, covering it with a layer of superficial fish patterns, which seemed to be threatening, but the water lines rippled on it, as if there was something it longed for, and said: "Be careful, you said that the Luo demon will not wake up, it should be fine." ”

When the two of them stepped into the front area of the stone wall, a crooked human face twisted his body with a smile, pulled out his slender arm from below, patted the little beast in front of him, pulled the tentacles, writhed like a ghost, the painting on the stone wall was vivid, and the strange eyes looked at the two of them, licked their tongues meaningfully, and then rushed over.

The peachwood sword in Li Shuishan's hand buzzed out, piercing at the charming figure, squeaking, the shadow jumped back to the stone wall, looking at the sword with a shocked face, the little beast opened its small eyes and jumped out, attacking the two of them, and before it arrived, it was slashed by the peachwood sword, and it was so frightened that it opened its big mouth and swallowed it with a vomit.

You Shansanren's face was stunned, he slapped his sleeves, pinched his fingers, and grabbed a short knife from his sleeve, which was covered with runes, exuding golden light, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Monster, it's really rampant, see if I don't kill you." ”

The little beast's face was distorted, and it exploded with a bang.

The peachwood sword flew back, and the two of them saw a few shadows writhing on the stone wall, revealing a greedy look.
