Chapter 4: Shock
Coastal land, the climate is changeable, and spring and autumn are short. At the end of summer, when the sea breeze blows, there is a burst of coolness, and the flowers and leaves are withered, and there is a depression.
In the blink of an eye, Ji Yan spent a winter and summer in Wujia Village, and he was also like a child in the village, helping Uncle Wu with housework during the day, and going to the forest with Wu Qi to collect firewood and pick fruits in his spare time.
"Xiao Yan, hurry up, the little monkey probably picked a lot of fruit again, let's exchange some fruit with it for the winter. "The poor boy is in charge early, Wu Qi has grown a lot taller than a year ago, his body has developed quite fast, and he is young and energetic when he runs and jumps.
"Dog, slow down, it hurts me to run barefoot on this stone pavement. Ji Yan explained while walking in the back that Uncle Wu persuaded him to wear shoes several times in a year, but how could ten years of habits be changed in one day, Ji Yan always felt restrained every time he wore shoes, so the people in the family did not mention it, and he went.
Wu Qi ran to the place agreed with the little monkey in the forest early in the morning, and waited for Ji Yan's arrival. After a while, Ji Yan was not in a hurry, and walked over, the white robe was still the same, and the loose hair was also tied up with a hosta, which was given by Liu Private School, who taught and read in the village. Liu was not from the village, but moved to Wujia Village a few years ago, dressed in a green shirt and holding a folding fan, and his rotten spirit was undoubtedly revealed. When more of the children in the village went to his house to study and write, he collected some food as tuition. He saw that Ji Yan was upright, talked extraordinary, and dabbled in the books he taught, so he had high hopes for this son and cut his love for the hosta he was wearing. It is also Ji Yan's courage, after wearing the hosta, a white robe is set off, like a literati, and the breath of the scroll is fully revealed.
"Nerd, you said the little monkey is so slow today, why hasn't he come yet, that guy won't eat alone, right? Wu Qi picked up a piece of withered grass and said vaguely.
Ji Yan glanced around, and was also slightly surprised, in the past, the little monkey would give them some fruits here and now, why didn't he see him today.
Suddenly, a shrill cry came from the trees in the distance, and the voice was anxious and urgent. Hearing this, Ji Yan and Wu Qi hurriedly ran in that direction, and after a while, a gray-haired monkey jumped down from a tree, it was the little monkey, he ran around the two, tugging at the corner of Ji Yan's robe, and pointed to a place in the distance. The two had a tacit understanding with the little monkey and went to the direction together.
It was a low cave with weeds and rattan trees. The little monkey ran in, the two of them looked at each other, Ji Yan took a deep breath, walked in front, one hand had already buckled the necklace on his chest, and the other hand grabbed Wu Qi, and walked towards the cave. In addition to the cry of the little monkey and the whirring wind, the sound of wheezing can be vaguely heard, sometimes mixed with the sound of coughing, just when the two want to see the scene in front of them, the cave suddenly shines with golden light, and the fibers can be seen.
It was like daylight in the cave, and the two of them saw the situation clearly. I saw an old monk wearing a red gilt robe sitting cross-legged in the cave, with white eyebrows hanging on both sides of his cheeks, his thumb plucking beads, and his other hand standing on his chest, with Buddhist scriptures in his mouth, but his complexion was slightly bad, sometimes the black gas was rolling, sometimes flushing and rebellious, struggling unbearably, and a Buddhist bead the size of an adult fist floating in the air beside him, whirling and glowing.
"Hey, old monk, what's wrong with you, why are you here?" Wu Qi hesitated for a moment and then boldly asked the old monk.
I saw that the old monk's face gradually recovered, and he looked at the two children, and there was a light in his eyes, as if he wanted to see through people's hearts. The two of them were also in a trance, but they were calm for a moment, and Ji Yan stood in front of Wu getting up, "Grandpa Buddha, we followed the little monkey here, I didn't know you were here, my companion spoke straightforwardly, and I hope to forgive." The monk saw that the two of them were acting upright under his gaze, and he was already relieved, seeing that this son was reasonable and his words were not hypocritical, and he looked at each other differently in his heart.
"Two little donors, I am practicing outside, and I have encountered an accident for a while, and I am cultivating in this cave, and I hope that the donor will keep it secret for the old man. The old monk spoke kindly and pleaded with the two of them.
"Well, don't worry, we'll keep it a secret, just tell us if you need anything, our village is not far from this wood, and you can go there to find us. "Wu Qi is warm-hearted, and he doesn't treat himself as an outsider, and he has no guilt.
"The donor is innocent, thank you for your care, after the two of you leave, I will set up a formation at the entrance of the cave to avoid the breath, all creatures are not allowed to enter, and when I finish cultivating, I will go to the village to return this cause and effect, Amitabha. The old monk said to the two of them, whispered to the Buddha, and asked the two to leave early.
Ji Yan understood and pulled Wu Qi out of the cave, and the two said goodbye.
"Why do the Great Fan relics suddenly have a sense, is it possible that there is something strange?" The old monk in the dark cave said to himself, the Great Fan relics are Buddhist treasures, driving away evil spirits and avoiding evil, and leveling the ghosts. There are only two situations in which the Supreme Treasure has a spirit to react: one is that there is an evil demon in the crooked path, and the other is that there is a person with great Dharma here. The old monk didn't know what the situation was, so he had to hurry up his time to cultivate so that he could make all preparations.
Winter is approaching and the days are getting shorter. The busy day came to an end, Ji Yan played with Wu Bo and Wu Qi for a while after dinner, and the two did not say a word about the woods, guarding the little secret in their hearts.
The night is dark and windy, and the stars are dotted. Ji Yan did not rest in the house, as early as after he came to Wujia Village, he and Wu Bo added an extra room next to the grass house, which was his own room, and in this grass house that only allowed one person, he hid the secrets he guarded. Every night, he would take out the disc, say a few words to it, and then begin to practice the obscure scriptures.
"Uncle Hou, today we saw a monk in the cave in the woods, he is so old, his eyebrows are on his cheeks, but it seems that there is something wrong with his body, and he has a golden ball, the golden light is so comfortable on Yin'er's body, and Yan'er feels that the scriptures for cultivation in his body are also running, and Yin'er is going to cultivate. ”
Ji Yan put the disc in the necklace and began to practice the scriptures, everything was as he thought, after the golden light, the only trace of Buddha power in his body seemed to have grown a lot, and the Buddha power flowed around his body like a liquid, and finally fell silent in his belly.
On the edge of the sea, a few glimmers of light flashed, the light was not vigorous, but they were all blue and white, gradually falling to the ground, and a few ghostly fires flickered and dimmed, hovering in front of several people. They walked into the woods, and the green and white flames floated and shook in this lonely forest, treacherous and miserable, no different from the ghost fire of the cemetery in the world.
"Are you sure he's here?" the man at the head was dressed in a robe as black as ink, blending into the dark night, except for the judge's mask on his face, which was fierce and vicious, and it was extremely conspicuous.
"Big brother, he concluded that we were using ghost methods and guarding against him everywhere, how could you guess that I was using the acacia worms in southern Xinjiang to track him. Behind him, a man wearing a bull's head mask, covered himself in the same black robe, but obviously respected the man in front of him.
And say that the acacia insect is really a rare thing in the world, "male and female are paired, lovesickness is difficult to part, the ends of the world, until death does not leave", is to describe this thing, this insect is very small, can be hidden in clothing, as long as once separated, no matter where he is, he will be able to find it in time.
"Why don't we look separately, this forest is not big, a stick of incense, if you find him with phosphorus fire as a number, if there is no clue to meet here and then think about it in the long run, eldest brother, second brother, what do you think?" proposed the man who was also dressed but wearing a horse-masked mask.
The three of them discussed, each carrying a ghost fire, and sped away in three directions. Everything was silent again, but the general trend of the wind and rain was unsettling, and the occasional rustling of leaves rustled with the deadly roar of a viper waiting for an opportunity.
The light of the Buddha in the cave rose at a glance, but fortunately the enchantment was blocked and not exposed. "It's not good, I'm afraid it's a demon chasing after me this time!" the old monk woke up from his meditation and muttered to himself.
A pale blue flame rose from the ground and rushed into the sky, standing out in the dark sky. In the distance, two figures scurried north of the woods.
In a few moments, the judge and the bull head found the horse face but did not see the person they were looking for, and they couldn't help but be curious. "Third brother, you must have a clue when you sent a signal, but you found the bald donkey?" asked the bull head eagerly.
The horse was silent, but he turned to point to the village in front of him that was swallowed by the night, and the two of them couldn't help but nod and smile after observing the surrounding environment.
"Brothers, the terrain here is flat, as long as we threaten to slaughter the villagers, won't the old monk hiding in the shadows obediently send it to the door, and then you and I will wait for the rabbit without much effort. The horse's eyes were bloodthirsty, and he was gloomy with a plan.
Without saying a word, the judge strode towards the village, followed by bulls and horses, and for a time every house barked and the dogs barked, wailing incessantly, and the three of them rushed into the flock like fierce wolves, and the villagers were at the mercy of the struggle. Uncle Wu's family, who lived in the deepest part, had already woken up, and Uncle Wu hid Ji Yan and Wu Qi under the bamboo basket and told them not to make any movement until dawn. Seeing that the fire had broken out in front of the village, the two little babies were already panicked and obediently hidden.
After a while, a cold and ghostly voice suddenly appeared: "Monk, we know that you are nearby, there are more than a dozen families here, I advise you to show up early, otherwise...... Hmph, I can't guarantee these dozens of lives!"
"Wicked man, Hugh is rampant, how can this Lang Lang Qiankun allow you to fly high, and you are not afraid of retribution for doing this vicious act?" Liu Private School had long been unable to bear this behavior, and with a little anger in his chest, he had already disregarded his life and suddenly instructed the three of them to scold. But just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw a fishy, dark red chain entwined around him, and the chain became tighter and tighter, and Liu's blood continued to flow along the scar, and gradually disappeared on the chain. The chains are like bloodthirsty ghosts, greedily sucking every drop of essence and blood, only to see the private school screaming in pain, showing the color of struggle, and there are clouds in the seven orifices, turning into a soul in the air, and before it escapes, it is taken into the chains, leaving a shriveled and yellow corpse on the ground, which is extremely terrifying. It all started in an instant, and it caused panic and helplessness among ordinary people.
"Shut up, a group of domestic animals and ants, obedient and obedient, you can still wait for you to die, don't do this stupid and stupid thing!"
Suddenly, a little light began to rise in the south of the village, and thousands of golden lights flew out, rushing towards the three evil people with the momentum of heaven and earth, and the three brothers each sacrificed their magic weapons to parry.
"Amitabha, everything starts with me, the old man has appeared, and he will not let go of the innocent people, don't kill in vain!"
A loud Buddha sound came out, and the three of them were shocked, and they couldn't help but be shocked......
