Chapter 9: Smells of Strange Smells
Wang Lin frowned and came to the door, what would happen at such a late hour?
Chirping......
The door was opened, and the people wandering outside the door suddenly froze, looking flustered. Before he could knock on the door, it opened on its own.
"The donor came here late at night, presumably there may be something important, and the master asked me to call you in. Wang Lin Shili said. He looked at this man who was about forty years old, his expression was haggard, and there were still tears on his face, he must have experienced some sad things in this demon beast attack on the village.
The man hesitated and said, "Thank you, little brother, I did come to find the master for something." Then he cautiously walked into the house.
Wang Lin closed the door and followed, but he walked out of the back room without taking two steps and was faceless, with a calm and solemn expression, with a light red robe, it was completely like a Buddha stepping from the other side.
As soon as the man saw the faceless coming out, he knelt down directly and said, "Master, I am Zhang Dali, a villager from Songshan Village, and I have come here to ask for help if I have something." ”
"Donor, please, just say anything directly, as long as I can solve it, I will not shirk. Wuyan stepped forward and helped Zhang Dali up.
"Thank you, Master, I'm not sure what I'm going to say. Zhang Dali paused here and reorganized the language.
"But it doesn't hurt to say that. "Shameless.
After a while, Zhang Dali said resentfully, "A few months ago, the village was still peaceful, not to mention that kind of human-like monsters, there are not even fierce beasts nearby." But yesterday afternoon, so many demon beasts suddenly came, and when they entered the village, they didn't attack us directly, but just searched everywhere in the village, and searched every house. But in the end, we didn't find anything, so we gathered us together and prepared to kill those who vented their anger. ”
Speaking of which, Zhang Dali paused again, and the following should be the key part.
But hearing this, Wuyan and Wang Lin's expressions became solemn, obviously the demon beasts did not come to this village for no reason, there must be something that attracted them. "And then?" Wang Lin asked.
Zhang Dali struggled and said: "Before the monster arrived, I went out to collect firewood, and I once smelled the fragrance coming from the ancient well next to the village. The well was in the pine forest at the edge of the village. Originally, I thought it was nothing, but the fragrance spread so widely that even the people who came back from farming said that they smelled a special fragrance that day, and I think only I knew that the fragrance came from that well. It took a while for the scent to disappear that day, but within a few days, the youkai came. ”
Speaking of monsters, Zhang Dali still had palpitations in his heart, and his voice didn't tremble.
"Are you saying those demon beasts are here to find that strange fragrance?" said Shameless solemnly. He felt that this might not be easy.
"Mage, I think so, but I'm not sure. But I thought about it, if it was really for this strange fragrance, then maybe there would be monsters in the future. And at that time, mage, you are long gone, so what awaits us is not a catastrophe, so dare to come to the mage for help. Zhang Dali knelt down again after speaking, if what he said was true, then if they left and the demon beast attacked again, the consequences would be unbearable for him. He had already lost the person he loved most in this attack, and he didn't want this to happen to others.
"In this case, you take us to the well to see, if there is really something that the demon beast is looking for, the poor monk will definitely take it. Seeing that Zhang Dali couldn't say why, he said so. Even if it's nothing, it's good to reassure Zhang Dali.
"Thank you, Master. Zhang Dali said: "But is it now or tomorrow?"
"Right now. ”
"Master, should I go too?" Wang Lin said. Although it was night, as long as there was no face, he felt that it was no problem. This kind of mysterious thing, he also wants to see a thing or two.
"Let's do it together. Wuyan nodded at him.
Zhang Dali turned around and opened the door and went out, followed by Wuyan and Wang Lin.
It was night, the sky was clear, the sky was cloudless, the moon like a jade plate in the sky had passed the middle of the sky, and countless stars were sanitating and illuminating the earth clearly.
"Mage, the ancient well is in the pine forest over there. Walking across the small bridge and through several fields at the edge of the village, Zhang Dali pointed to the deep and quaint pine forest outside the farmland and said.
In fact, this pine forest is separated from the village by a few fields, and it is basically close to the village, and there are many pine trees scattered in the village. In a sense, the village is also in this pine forest. No wonder the monsters didn't come directly to the pine forest, but went to the village to look for it.
Call...... A gust of wind brings the sound of bushes along the roadside, and near the pine forest, the pine waves accompanied by the peculiar fragrance of pine trees should be refreshing, but in the moonlight and darkness it looks terrifying.
The chirping of insects and birds in the darkness on the side of the road also made Wang Lin's heart furious, and he looked left and right uneasily, always feeling that something was lurking in the dark.
Zhang Dali couldn't help but slow down, and Wang Lin also stepped up to keep up with Wuyan.
In the darkness, a pair of vertical pupils suddenly appeared, and in the vertical pupils was a strange black and red light, without a trace of the whites of the eyes. The vertical pupils did not have the slightest emotion, and they shook from side to side and disappeared after observing them.
The footsteps of the three people who finally marched into the pine forest were suddenly blurred, Zhang Dali's eyes were instantly confused, but he kept walking faster and faster towards the destination, and finally even ran up, eager to step directly to the ancient well. Wang Lin was drowsy, he looked at the tall pine trees around him that seemed to be spinning in circles, and there were several more moons in the sky at once, all of which were spinning and urging him to sleep. Wuyan just frowned, and reached out to grab Zhang Dali, who kept running even if he was lifted in his hand. Eyes searched around.
However, Wuyan's footsteps were also unabashedly messy, and he wanted to lure out what was hidden in the darkness.
After a while, Wang Lin finally couldn't support it anymore and fell. Wuyan stretched out his other hand and lifted him up gently, so Wuyan's two hands were restrained, one hand holding Zhang Dali, who was unconscious but just running with his feet, and Wang Lin, whose eyes were drooping and his body was weak, in the other.
"When contemplating the bodhisattva of self-reliance, when he walks in the deep prajnaparamita, he sees that the five aggregates are empty and all suffering. Wuyan looked around and gently recited the "Heart Sutra". The full name of the "Heart Sutra" is "Mahaprajnaparamita Heart Sutra", which is a profound Buddhist scripture with immeasurable power.
As time slowly passed, Wuyan's footsteps became more and more vain, and his walking became more and more deviated. The "Heart Sutra" also reads the following text: "Therefore, it is known that Parnaparata is a great mantra, a great mantra, a supreme mantra, and an unequal mantra." ”
What is hidden in the darkness is waiting for now, it knows that the great monk in front of him has great skills, so he uses the illusion to kill his mind and by the way, the two people around him become a burden to him, and when he is unconscious, he will give a fatal blow.
With a swipe, a small black shadow appeared silently in the darkness behind Wuyan, and then a huge sharp beast claw suddenly grabbed the top of Wuyan's head with a dazzling white light.
There is no doubt that if it is hit by the beast's claws, even the hard bluestone will directly fall apart!
However, it was at this time that Wuyan waited, and suddenly turned around, and the last two sentences of the "Heart Sutra" were not chanted in a low voice, but were as passionate as Hong Zhong Dalu, "It can remove all suffering, it is true!
"Ah......h The black shadow fell from the void and smashed in front of Shameless.
At the moment of the faceless "zha", Zhang Dali and Wang Lin woke up suddenly, their eyes were confused and sober, panting and scared in their hearts. If it weren't for Wuyan following, it is conceivable that they might not even know that they were dead.
