Chapter 53 A Bright Light Should Be Lit (Three Watches, Ask for Subscription)
The sun was already shining, and the cumulus clouds had dispersed.
Zhong Ming sat on his stone bench, watching Liang Heizi, who had just gotten up, drinking porridge, he had just rushed back from Old Man Sun's house, and happened to see Liang Heizi scratching his head and standing in the courtyard yawning.
Liang Yu's body is very strong, half an hour ago, it was plagued by the accumulation of corpse qi, and now it is alive and kicking, that is, he has been shouting that he is hungry.
Naturally, Liang Yu couldn't be hungry, so Zhong Ming boiled meat porridge for him.
The big rooster pecked around the stone table, and as soon as he came to the door of the fence courtyard, he was so surprised that he flew up the low wall.
The person who came was Fei Dacheng, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, exhaled and panted, and gasped: "Brother Ming, hit, inquire...... Clear...... It's over!"
Zhong Ming beckoned, frowned, and said, "It's always this urgency, sit down and pant first." ”
Fei Dacheng nodded hurriedly, sat down at the stone table, eased his breath, drank a cup of tea, and then said: "Brother Ming, I just went to the fairy stone to ask, and now there is a group of people burning incense and worshipping God in front of the big stone, everyone says that the boulder has a fairy spirit, and the sick person can be healed by kneeling, and the surrounding villages have gone to kneel and worship, and even the county commander in the city has also gone!"
Squinting his eyes, Zhong Ming was thoughtful, as he guessed, Bai Yujing was going to borrow the Linxian Stone to make a move.
If there is a tide of corpses tonight, the entire border is really Bai Yujing's bag, and the immortals will take it at will.
"You didn't go kneel on that stone, did you?" asked Zhong Ming.
Fei Dacheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Brother Ming won't let me get close to the stone, nor will I kneel down, I keep it in mind." ”
Nodding with satisfaction, Zhong Ming said again: "Okay, then it's okay, you go door-to-door now, we are not allowed to see the Linxian Stone in the Mud Village, let alone kneel down to worship the stone, saying that I specially advised." ”
"Got it, Brother Ming, I'll go now!"
After drinking another bowl of herbal tea, Fei Dacheng patted his obsessive buttocks, and hurriedly ran towards the village.
Liang Yu drank the porridge, clasped his teeth and asked, "Brother Ming, what is there to be afraid of that stone, the more you say that, the more I want to go and see it." ”
"You just have to know that you can't go, and if you dare to look at the stone, I'll break your leg. ”
Seeing that Zhong Ming was not joking, Liang Yu sighed, washed the dishes and said, "I went home to rest, but my body was still very tired." ”
After speaking, Liang Yu climbed over the wall and returned to his courtyard.
Seeing Liang Yu go home to rest, Zhong Ming shook his head, and felt a little sleepy, so he went back to the house to close his eyes and recuperate, preparing for tonight's corpse ceremony.
Zhong Ming walked into the house with his front feet, and in the courtyard over there, Liang Yu quietly went out, he trotted all the way, deliberately bypassed Zhong Ming's courtyard, and walked the position of the hillside behind.
Standing on the hillside, making sure that Zhong Ming didn't find himself sneaking out, Liang Yucai put his hand between his eyebrows, looked in the direction of the immortal stone, and muttered alone: "What is so strange about that broken stone, I, Liang Ergou, don't believe in evil, so I want to go and see what that stone looks like." ”
Muttering in his mouth, Liang Yu strode in the direction of Linxian Stone.
......
Castle Field, in the study.
Tian Xingjian sat on the back chair of the pear blossom wood, holding the scroll, glanced at it a few times but couldn't stand it, he put down the scroll, picked up the peach blossom folding fan, fanned it twice, and then stood up and began to pace slowly around the desk.
There is a sandalwood copper stove on the desk, and cigarettes curl up.
Tian Xingjian fanned twice, inhaled into his nose, his expression was a little calmer, and he said: "The Linxian Stone has been falling for two hours, and there is no news from Yu Su's side?"
The window of the study was wide open, Li Que was standing by the window and looking into the distance, he frowned slightly, his eyes were a little blue and deep, and said: "How can you call the name of the master, you have to call the uncle, how many times have you told you!"
Flipping the peach blossom fan, Tian Xingjian pouted and said: "That's your master, not my master, my master is the lord of Baiyujing, she told me that the sky and the earth are big, except for his old man, I am the biggest, I can call it whatever I want." ”
As soon as the words fell, a cold glint flashed in Li Que's eyes, and Tian Xingjian's mouth and nose froze, making his cheeks red, and he hurriedly used a folding fan to hit the ice.
At the beginning, Tian Xingjian refused to call Senior Brother Li Que, so he used this trick, and he was beaten into a trick.
Li Que didn't reply, and said, "Next time, I won't shut your mouth and seal your whole body in the ice cave." ”
Knocking on the ice cubes on his mouth, Tian Xingjian's face was full of ice slag, he was very unconvinced, and said secretly: When I go to Bai Yujing to learn the immortal method from the master, I will definitely beat you into a pig's head when I come back!
Although he thought so in his heart, the eldest prince of Tian didn't dare to say anything, so he could only sulk with a peach blossom fan.
But at this time, a streamer flashed in the sky, and it came straight to the study.
Li Que's face was overjoyed, he stretched out his hand to take off the streamer, and hurriedly said, "The master has sent the news!"
Tian Xingjian also quickly poked his head over, he stared at Li Que's hand with interest, and saw that there was an ice sculpture flying bird in Li Que's hand, lifelike.
Li Que waved his hand, and a cold wind rose in the study, closing the doors and windows.
Crushed the ice sculpture in his hand, only to see the ice slag form a few lines of small characters in mid-air, and after a while, the ice slag handwriting turned into a puddle of water and fell to the ground.
Li Que clenched his fists slightly and said: "Shizun is already waiting a hundred miles away, and tomorrow morning when the dead break through the city, Shizun will come in time." ”
Closing the folding fan, Tian Xingjian frowned slightly and said: "Those dead people don't listen to you and me, besides, the city wall is extremely high, and ordinary armoured battalions have to besiege it for two days, how to ensure that they can break the city at sunrise." ”
"It's because they can't do it that they need your help. ”
There were blue-purple ice crystals condensed in Li Que's eyes, and he looked at the location of the barren hill, and his little childlike face revealed a shadow that did not match it.
......
At sunset, at the entrance of the mud village, two Taoist priests, an old man and a young man, arrived as scheduled.
This time, Zhang Daozhen's master and apprentice obviously came, Zhang Nianchen's small rattan box was full of big bags and small bags, and even the old Taoist priest was carrying a patched broken burden behind him.
Zhong Ming, Old Man Sun and others had been waiting at the head of the village for a long time, and a group of people were eager to see through it.
Seeing Zhang Daozhen coming, Old Man Sun immediately greeted him and said with a wry smile: "Daochang Zhang, I'm afraid that you won't come." ”
Zhang Daozhen smiled and said, "There are too many things to prepare, and I can't be busy for a while, so it's too late." ”
The two old men were about to make a fool of themselves again, Zhong Ming was most afraid that they would nag this, so he hurriedly interrupted: "Zhang Daochang, it's good that you are here, see that the sun is about to set, our time is running out, it is better to prepare quickly." ”
"Master, what Zhong Jushi said is extreme, it's already too late, I'm afraid that if it's too late, things will change. ”
The little Taoist priest Zhang Nianchen said something to Zhong Ming, which made Zhong Ming feel very good, and said secretly: I didn't see the wrong person, I will help you talk if you give the silver.
Zhang Daozhen didn't want to say more, he looked up at the sun, the sunset was late, and the little half of the sun was gone, he also knew that the time was urgent, and he hurriedly said: "Zhong Jushi, you have to help me find seven boys." ”
searched and searched, only to find Liang Yu and the six people in their gang were boys, Zhong Ming could only say: "Me too, just seven people." ”
Zhang Daozhen pulled Zhong Ming's sleeve and said in a low voice: "You can't do it, you have to go to the hill with me to suppress the corpse, and Poor Dao is afraid that you will run away after helping you do something, so who will you go to reason." ”
"You old way, don't you think of people as things, and everyone is the same as you?"
Shaking off Zhang Daozhen's dirty hands, Zhong Ming frowned, where to find him a boy now.
Because the night is too dangerous, so the young boys can't do it, for fear they won't be able to bear it.
At this moment, Li Guangling, the eldest son of Carpenter Li, pulled down his father and asked in a low voice, "Father, do you think I can go?"
Carpenter Li was stunned, he looked back and asked, "It is extremely dangerous to practice at night, and you may have to worry about your life, aren't you afraid?"
Li Guangling gritted his teeth and said: "I'm afraid, but I also want to go, father, you taught me, the eldest husband should do something, and not do something, we have lived in this small village for a year, in such a situation, as a man, I should stand up." ”
Carpenter Li laughed, he laughed, patted the top of Li Guangling's head and said, "Good son, you have a bit of the courage of your father!"
Immediately, Carpenter Li asked Li Guangling to come forward to respond, and after he turned around, he said to Hu Su: "You follow Guangling secretly for a while, there is no danger and you don't have to come forward, help me watch him." ”
"Yes, Lord!"
Hu Su immediately agreed, and there was some embarrassment in his eyes, although the eldest son was only nine years old, he already had the appearance of a young man.
In this way, the seven people have already been chosen.
Zhang Daozhen immediately led a few of them to wander around the edge of the silt village, and whenever he walked through, Zhang Nianchen took out a small cloth bag behind him, which contained a kind of red powder with a slight smell of blood, and sprinkled it on the ground.
Starting from the big stone at the entrance of the village, Zhang Daozhen took a copper lamp from the package behind Zhang Nianchen, and he took out a stall from the cloth bag behind him, and the things in it were also fishy and smelly, but it was a mixed oil.
Zhang Daozhen first pulled Li Guangling over, put the copper lamp poured over the lamp oil into his hand, and said: "Little layman, don't be afraid when it's dark, after an hour, you will light this lamp, remember, no matter what you see, it's an illusion, don't touch, don't shout, and don't run around, can you do it?"
Li Guangling took the bronze lamp and nodded, and Goldman Sachs responded: "I understand, don't worry, Daoist." ”
Zhang Daozhen touched Li Guangling's head with a smile and muttered: "After being a nobleman, he has courage." ”
Zhong Ming, who was on the side, also stepped forward to touch Li Guangling's head, and whispered: "Guangling, don't be afraid, do this well, you will be a man, when I come back, I will buy you crispy cakes to eat." ”
"Life is a hero, death is also a ghost. I, Li Guangling, want to be a husband!"
Looking at the righteousness on Li Guangling's still immature face, Zhong Ming smiled and said, "Okay, you are a big husband!"
Li Guangling was placed at the entrance of the village, and then surrounded the silt village, and the six people of Liang Yu were also arranged in order, which could be regarded as a success.
When Zhang Nianchen surrounded the silt village with the red powder, Zhang Daozhen personally swallowed the pill, quickly checked around the silt village, and then nodded: "This array has been completed." ”
Zhong Ming hurriedly asked, "Old Dao, do you really work this time?"
"Of course, this array is called the Divine Hidden Seven Star Array, the seven stars are against the Big Dipper in the sky, and it will become the momentum of heaven and man, once the seven star lights are lit, the Daluo Immortals will not be able to find the silt village, as long as the lights are on, the whole village will be invisible.
I mixed the blood with the powder of the corpses and sprinkled it around the village to cover the breath of the creatures, and even if there were tens of thousands of corpses, they could only take a detour and not enter the village. ”
After Zhang Daozhen's sworn explanation, Zhong Ming also believed eight points, although this old Taoist priest has a very small heart and loves to calculate people, he still has the ability, otherwise he would not be able to save so many people in the mud village.
After arranging this array, it was getting late, the sunset had completely set, and the crescent moon was on the treetops.
Zhang Daozhen said to the accompanying old man Sun, Li Carpenter and others: "You can go back to the village and wait, don't go out at will at night, no matter what movement you hear, don't cross this red line." ”
Several people stared at the red powder under their feet, thinking deeply, Old Man Sun immediately mobilized everyone to wait in the village, he didn't plan to let the villagers sleep tonight, everyone gathered together to survive this catastrophe together.
And Zhang Daozhen stretched out his hand to greet the little Taoist priests Zhang Nianchen and Zhong Ming, and said, "Let's go, enter the hill, and suppress the corpse!"
Zhong Ming recited the Yama Jue Ring Knife, the old Taoist priest and the little Taoist priest recited the Heart Sutra, and a group of three people went to the barren mountain hill.
......
At the same time, Liang Yuzheng, who was in one of the eyes of the formation, scratched his ears and cheeks, he casually put the copper lamp at his feet, gently slapped his cheeks, and muttered: "Liang Ergou, Liang Ergou! Why are you disobedient! Brother Ming said that he wouldn't let you go, you still have to go to see the broken stone! Finally, kneel down for others!"
Liang Yu's expression was in a trance, and he was very self-reproachful, although he didn't know what the consequences would be if he knelt down for Lin Xianshi, but he knew that Brother Ming was never alarmist, he must have made an extremely serious mistake.
In a moment's hesitation, Liang Yu accidentally kicked the copper lamp, and with a soft snap, the copper lamp fell in response.
Liang Yu hurriedly lowered his head to pick up the copper lamp, and exclaimed, "Ah!
