Chapter 326: Another one
The flowers are like brocade, red and bright swaying in the cold wind, and coated with a depressing dark color in the darkness of the night.
In a sea of flowers, there are dozens of children in red clothes and black shoes holding red lanterns, forming a circle, some standing still, some probing their brains, and they are not afraid to see the scene in the circle, but they are just curious.
The scene in the circle is actually not too scary, just weird.
The dead child lay in the flower field, as if it had been dried for a long time, and only skin and bones were left in the muddy, so dry that from the deep scars of the bones, the slag of bones could be seen in it, and at first glance it looked like a layer of dry wool on broken ceramics, not like a person.
Luo Ying only glanced at it, and then she was so angry that her muscles flinched, her lips trembled, and she turned her head to the side, unable to bear to look at it again.
Yizen didn't have this soft heart, so he stepped forward to check the child, his face was full of puzzlement, "This method, I have never heard of it, it is really a long experience, has it happened here before?"
"If there is a butcher who uses such cruel methods, how can I tolerate him!" Luo Ying's face turned pale and gritted his teeth.
"That's weird. Li Chan became more and more puzzled, "This technique looks very familiar, it is something that has slipped in after doing a few sins outside." ”
"No way. Luo Ying's tone was categorical, and he suddenly realized his gaffe, and his voice softened slightly, "When the family teacher was alive, he set up a formation in the sea of flowers, and it doesn't hurt to walk less, if you want to come through the sea of flowers, unless there is someone you know to lead the way, otherwise you are a person who has the means to get lost in it, and it will take a lot of effort to return the same way, let alone find here." ”
"I see. Li Chan was slightly surprised, "Have you been to other people recently?"
"I only go to the valley on the fifteenth day of the first month, and the rest of the time is in the valley. Luo Ying's voice calmed down, "Outsiders don't know the situation in the valley, if something really comes in with it, why didn't they eat me earlier and hibernate these sons to do this hateful act." ”
Li Chan groaned, "Or the one who came in with me today, and I didn't dare to start when I saw that there were many people." It's really hard to make a conclusion about just such a corpse, so why don't you let the children go back to the house, don't go out at night, and see if you talk twice. ”
"That's all there is to it. Luo Ying sighed and eased her forehead for a while, "I pulled these children back from the ghost gate, thinking that when they grew up, I would send them out and find a way out for myself, how did I expect such a thing to happen, I am really ashamed of them." ”
"Since the poor monk has been encountered, there is no reason to sit idly by, but you still have to be cheeky and talk about it, is it convenient in the valley?" Li Chan looked righteous and awe-inspiring.
Luo Ying hurriedly said, "The Zen master is willing to make a move, Luo Ying is grateful, how can it be inconvenient." It's getting late, so the Zen master might as well ......"
Li Chan inadvertently saw a young man in white clothes and white hair standing in a circle surrounded by young children, and the man in black behind him seemed to melt into the darkness, and was stunned, "When did you come over?"
Only then did Luo Ying see Ning Junxi and Gu Feng, and arched her hand.
"Something happened to Shi Niang and Sisi, I'll come out and take a look. Ning Jun bowed his head in return, and entered the circle at the gap vacated by the group of children, and said in a faint voice.
"How is your sister, but you were injured and called me?" Li Chan suddenly became nervous.
"I was only a little frightened. Ning Jun glanced at the human figure that seemed to be chaotic, frowned slightly, and replied calmly.
"Then what are you doing here if you don't stay there?" Li Chan didn't have a good breath.
"Sisi and they ran into a paper figure and slipped out of the hands of death, so I looked around and stopped by to see if I could help. Ning Junxi glanced at the lantern beaters again.
Li Chan pressed Ning Junxi's head in the past, and said in a low voice, "It's enough for you to take care of yourself, what are you mixing blindly?"
Ning Jun sighed.
"Bang! you kid!" Li Chan nodded Ning Jun's head, turned his head a little embarrassed and said, "The little apprentice is stubborn, which makes the valley master laugh." ”
Luo Ying coughed and said gently, "Lingtu Longzhang Fengzi must be a leading person, with this heart of help, Luo Ying is really moved." ”
"It's the valley lord who overestimated him, and it's good if he doesn't make trouble. Li Chan's face was full of helplessness, "It's not too early this day, Yizen is really relieved not to be clumsy, and he will be lost first." ”
Luo Ying arched his hand and said, "The two of you are at your own convenience." ”
As he spoke, he beckoned the children to begin to clean up.
Ning Junxi rushed down and arched his hand.
Li Chan and Ning Jun went away one after the other.
......
Ning Junxi and Li Chan returned to the thatched house where Wang Yan and a few people stayed together, but Ning Junxi only knew one-sided about the paper man, so he didn't talk to Li Chan in detail, and only asked Li Chan to ask a few parties.
The group of people discussed with each other for a while, and they were all a little tired, so Ning Junxi proposed to go back to the house to sleep, but Sisi didn't follow, and insisted on letting Ning Junxi accompany him, saying that the jade was unreliable.
Ning Junxi thought that if the jade was unreliable, there would be no one in the world, and seeing that Li Chan had a smile on his face, he obviously planned to watch a good show, and proposed that anyway, it was almost dawn, and a few people squeezed into a room to make do with it, got up early and went to the sea of flowers to take a turn, and when they came back, they would have breakfast.
Sisi and Wang Yan both felt reasonable, but Li Chan couldn't laugh anymore.
In the end, a few people really crowded into a room, two women slept, Ning Junxi and Li Chan slept at the table, and the remaining three people just rested on the roof for a while.
In the early morning, the sea of flowers is forgotten, the cold is stained, and the buds are half-open and half-closed in the gloomy morning light, not like the white overflow, but there is some shame and subtlety, and the atmosphere is also quiet and peaceful.
After Ning Junxi and Li Chan followed the two women who were swimming in the sea of flowers, they didn't have much interest in playing, and they gave each other a look from time to time for an hour, playing dumb riddles that didn't know if they were talking about it.
When the sky became brighter and brighter, there were children playing in the sea of flowers, and there was no shortage of picking fresh petals everywhere with fruit baskets, and the atmosphere gradually became noisy.
A few people were about to go back to the thatched house, and a boy quietly came out of the sea of flowers, his voice was immature and crisp, "The valley lord invited a few people to have breakfast, in the house where I met you yesterday, hurry up!"
After he finished speaking, he looked like a monkey and quietly burrowed back into the sea of flowers.
Several people glanced at each other and walked away together.
After breakfast, Luo Ying said that Li Chan would leave his hand to talk, and he wanted to let Ning Junxi stay with him, but Li Chan shirked and said that Ning Junxi was lazy and hadn't learned yet, Ning Junxi rolled his eyes in his heart and left with Wang Yan and Sisi.
In the morning, Ning Junxi and Sisi, Wang Yan turned around in the sea of flowers, Wang Yan would make fun of those children, but the children were the masters of life, and suddenly they entered the sea of flowers and couldn't find anyone, but as soon as they turned around, they heard laughter and whispers again.
In the afternoon, Sisi and Wang Yan overslept during a nap, and they didn't get up until dusk, Ning Junxi also stayed in the room for an afternoon, and casually made a score, because there was something in his heart, he withdrew halfway, and then wrote some words, which can be regarded as a clear heart refinement.
Throughout the day, Li Chan and Luo Ying talked or preached the scriptures together.
Although Luoying lives in seclusion, he is extensive, and the true meaning of the hundred schools outside the valley can be said to a few points, and the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all understandable, but he seems to be a young man in the turbid world.
After dinner, Li Chan came to Ning Junxi once, and asked Ning Junxi to guard Diansi and Wang Yan, and leave his affairs alone, lest there be a fire in the camp on their side.
Ning Junxi noticed that Li Chan had a plan when he entered the Valley of Forget, and asked him what he wanted to do, Li Chan only said two words concisely, excessive, Ning Junxi couldn't ask anything if he asked again.
This day passed leisurely, Ning Junxi sorted out his thoughts, sorted out the things in the mustard seed ring by the way, and turned out a few runes and some rune papers that were beyond the scope of the third grade and not yet the second grade when he just came out of the dark canyon, and he was bored and drew some auxiliary talisman seals that were only four to six grades, and he was busy until he was close to the third watch, and then he fell asleep with his clothes.
I didn't sleep well last night, and now it's been another busy day, Ning Junxi is really tired enough, and he fell asleep after lying down for a while.
Until there was another miserable scream in the silent night.
Ning Junxi was awakened, and suddenly fell asleep, but thinking of Li Chan's instructions, he couldn't look at it, and sat on his knees, not knowing what he could do for a while.
He sat for a while, feeling irritable, and opened the window wide to get some air, when he suddenly saw a white shadow flash in front of the window.
He was shocked, and he didn't think much about it, so he suddenly broke out of the window, looked around, and saw a sea of flowers in the distance looming white
He just wanted to chase after him, but someone suddenly shouted, "Little master!"
It turned out that Lone Wind went to check it out and came back.
Ning Junxi saw that the white color was gone, although he was unwilling and helpless, he turned indifferent, "How is it?"
"It's the same as yesterday. Lone Wind replied, a little hesitant, "You ...... just now"
"I'm not sure if it's not, but you just wanted to chase it, and you came. Ning Jun smiled helplessly, "That's it, let's go to Sisi with me first, and the master will go if she can't say anything." ”
Lone Wind nodded in agreement.
The two of them went to the silk thatched house, Wang Yan was indeed already inside, the god of death and jade were drinking tea outside, and everyone was much calmer than last night.
Ning Junxi didn't tell the two that he might also encounter the paper man, but just asked the two if the paper man had come to find it, and comforted him with two words like don't be afraid.
After a while, Li Chan also hurriedly came back from outside, saying that Luo Ying was angry tonight, and threatened to do it again and again, planning to search the valley tomorrow, so that a few people were a little mentally prepared.
Ning Junxi proposed to pack their luggage again, although his group of people were guests, he would not necessarily check their luggage, but if he checked, he would have more or less things, wouldn't he cause trouble.
Several people nodded in agreement.
After that, several people chatted with each other hastily and went back to their respective homes.
After Ning Jun returned to the thatched house, he found that his room seemed to have guests, and he asked for everything to be put in the mustard seed ring, and only put a piece of clothing on the outside as a disguise, so he didn't care about it.
After checking the room, I didn't find any mess, so I put my mind at ease, put the little gourd and the little monster on the table, took off my coat and gave them a quilt, put it on myself, and fell into a deep sleep.
