Chapter (98): Deep Pool Set Hidden Well

The dumb man looked at his almost scratched clothes, scratched the back of his head with his hand, and whispered embarrassedly, "My situation is similar, and I don't know how many times I have turned around in it." At first, it was a little better, but when I was almost finished, I suddenly realized that I had turned back halfway. Then I hurried back and continued to mark the markers I had prepared, but I found that I had run out of markers, and I still didn't see my intended destination. Just when I was puzzled, I suddenly felt like I had lost my sense of direction, and I couldn't find the direction of the east, east, west, and west. After a period of chaotic collision, although I was embarrassed and even had a slight surge of qi and blood, I later chose to sit down and slowly calm down my impetuousness. Finally, with my unique sense of smell, I slowly followed my own scent. ”

After listening to the explanations of the three of them, Xiao Qingfeng's brows suddenly furrowed, as if he was in deep thought. After a while, he walked slowly to a nearby mound of earth, which was a commanding height of the place. Looking around, there were no outsiders, and I saw that he suddenly rose from the ground and landed firmly on the top of the mound. After staying alone on it for more than ten minutes, he jumped down and walked quickly back to where everyone was.

Seeing this, the little Taoist priest greeted him and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, is there anything new to discover?"

Xiao Qingfeng smiled slightly, and replied calmly: "Yes, there are some discoveries, but they are not mature, and there are some details that I can't figure out for a while." In addition, I always feel that there seems to be some unique prohibition that has been artificially set up in this place, and this prohibition is the key to this 'Lost Soul Valley'. ”

The little Taoist priest said: "The artificial prohibition? Could it be that there is really something peculiar about this deep pool? Otherwise, why is there such a strange and unpredictable artificial prohibition, and this strange prohibition is even beyond our comprehension." ”

Xiao Qingfeng said: "This is also what I'm worried about, now let's not discuss this issue for the time being, let's figure out this prohibition first." ”

The little Taoist priest said: "Since you say so, then let's first understand the prohibition of this place." As for what to do next, Master Hou, you can just order the arrangement, and we will definitely do it completely. As soon as his words fell, the rest of the people immediately responded in unison.

Xiao Qingfeng said: "I think about it like this, according to the words of the second brother and the three of them, plus the situation that the four of us observed here just now. I preliminarily believe that there is a very prominent feature of the prohibition in this place, that is, after entering the valley, try not to have any personal subjective thoughts. To put it simply, once you're inside, the more you try to figure it out, the more misled you may be. Then, step by step, you will fall into a peculiar mindset, leading yourself step by step into a never-ending cycle. Let yourself magically collide back and forth in the center of the valley, slowly exhausting your mental and physical strength, until you let yourself run out of physical strength and collapse your spirit, and finally completely lose the sun and die of exhaustion in it. ”

The little Taoist priest said: "Then why is it that according to the old legend, this place only appears at night when the sun sets, that spell that is difficult to break? However, today, the second brother and them, on the contrary, this abnormal phenomenon appeared in broad daylight?"

Xiao Qingfeng said: "I think this may be the reason why the second brother deliberately searched and marked this, it was their energy and consciousness that were too concentrated, which abnormally triggered the strange prohibition here." And those ordinary peasants, they have long had a preconceived notion that as long as there is no danger in the daylight, there is no fear of this place at all. Moreover, most of them are some old farmers who are more familiar with this area nearby, and they can be said to know the terrain of this area well, and there will be no danger when they walk without any mental pressure. This is what the Buddhist Heart Sutra calls 'the mind is free of obstacles, no obstacles, no fears, and far from upside-down dreams.' ’”

Speaking of this, Xiao Qingfeng paused and continued: "Now let's do what I said and go through it again, if this time it can really reach the situation I speculated." Then we will break half of the ban in this place, and the rest is how to break this ban and how it is arranged. In addition, there is also a key point, which is to figure out why this place suddenly increases mana at night, making it impossible for people to crack and break through. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Qingfeng simply and clearly gave everyone the plan in his heart: first blindfold Jing Xin, the little Taoist priest, and the doll, and then let the dumb man, Mengshan Turtle, and Xiao Maitreya each use trekking poles to drag one of them, and re-enter the valley they just marked in pairs. After entering the valley, try to relax your mind, completely forget the markings just now, and just follow the direction of your base naturally. Once you encounter some complicated terrain again or start to get confused, let the blindfolded person lead the way, and walk forward completely according to your own sense of direction.

After a little preparation, the six of them immediately set out to act. And Xiao Qingfeng was still searching hard around the deep pool, hoping to find more valuable clues. Because he knows very well the prohibition laid by this place, its power should not only be the ecstasy terrain of the nearby valley, but its power will also change with the operation of the time, which is the most powerful thing about this ban, and it can also be said to be its core.

In addition, the original intention of the master who arranged this prohibition here seems to be greatly related to the pattern of this "deep pool set of dark wells", and may even be the prohibition specially laid out for this peculiar layout. For this reason, Xiao Qingfeng fell into deep thought again, and he couldn't figure it out.

While he was pondering, the six quickly returned to their original places, this time in less than half an hour. Everything is as he speculated, and the magic of this place is what he said - the stronger the heart, the more confused.

In other words, once you really let go of everything, you will naturally no longer be induced and hallucinated by all kinds of strange appearances in the ban, which is why he let three of them walk blindfolded.

Everyone chatted for a while, although they had roughly figured out that there was indeed a certain prohibition carefully arranged by the ancients in this place, and they also simply understood the apparent characteristics of this prohibition. However, it is still not possible to truly understand the core essence of this prohibition, and the real connection between this surrounding Ecstasy Valley and this "deep pool set of dark wells" in the middle.

Seeing that the time had already reached noon, the doll and the Mengshan turtle began to shout about the originally planned picnic again. So, Xiao Qingfeng temporarily gave up the deduction that still had no clue here, and led everyone back to the top of Huangshan Mountain above.

After arriving at the top of the mountain, the doll and the laughing Maitreya volunteered to go to the Huangshan Village in front of the mountain to make a simple purchase, while Jingxin and the dumb man found a relatively flat large stone at the top of the mountain and began to clean and arrange, while Xiao Qingfeng took the Mengshan turtle and the little Taoist priest to observe and discuss the valley behind the mountain at the north end of the mountain.

In less than an hour, the doll and the laughing Maitreya quickly returned to the top of the mountain with two large bags full of wine and food, and the meditation group immediately arranged it quickly. After everything was done, the seven of them began a pleasant feast on the top of the mountain.

After a few glasses of wine, the dumb man may have been in a bad mood this morning, and he actually began to get a little drunk. I saw him say to Xiao Qingfeng in a drunken and misty manner: "I said Brother Qingfeng, should we continue to ponder in the afternoon, or go down the mountain and go home?"

Xiao Qingfeng tilted his neck and drank a cup of liquor, and replied with a somewhat depressed expression: "I think after we have eaten and drunk enough, let's go down and have a look, I have always had an indescribable feeling now, but I don't know where to start." ”

Mengshan Turtle said: "What's this, anyway, at least we have seen some of the superficial Ni Duan, and it doesn't mean that there is no gain." Although I don't know if the predecessor who arranged the ban here back then really had a deep meaning, or like my ancestors, he liked to arrange some strange prohibitions in some secret places, which is also an important reason why I am deeply dissatisfied with them. Especially the mysterious old man in my family all day long, all day long, he knows that he wanders around the mountains all day long, and today he puts a strange pattern here that only he can understand, and tomorrow there is a delicate strange game that no one else can understand. If I want him to see him, he is just pretending to be profound, so as to show his strange talent and win the attention and admiration of outsiders, so as to achieve his own profit. ”

The doll said: "According to what you say, the arranger of the prohibition we met today may also be an idler with your old man." He should also be an idle egg, so as to deliberately show outsiders the strange skills he has learned in his heart. Perhaps, this phoenix ass door is also pretended to be a mysterious boast, in fact, this is just an ordinary 'deep pool set of dark wells' in nature. ”
