Chapter 155: Amnesia
Elder Fang inquired about the situation of Mo Yan's National Teacher's Mansion, and nodded with satisfaction, Kun Wu had already gained a firm foothold in the Thonburi Dynasty, and with Apsala possessing Niang Xian'er as the internal response in the palace, the plan was going smoothly so far.
Qing'er is still in a coma, and the effect of the real medicine has not yet been brought into play. Mo Yan also went to see the old monster of the red fan, because he was poisoned too deeply and it was difficult to treat, the other four monsters actually cried.
"Ho ho, jade nails. The little mountain ghost reminded on the side.
Ni Oh said that jade nails can cure all Gu poisons, but after all, they are all earthly poisons, and the blue-headed monster is a demon beast from the spirit world, and its poisonous surname must be much more powerful than that of the world, but let's give it a try, he quietly put on jade nails and asked people to bring a bowl of water, and secretly stretched his fingertips into the water, and the dementor eye could see a trace of aura from the jade nails into the clear water.
The old creature didn't react when he drank it, and he still lay there straight like a dead man, and it seemed that it still didn't work.
"Mr. Zhong, what's going on with the lungs breathing here?" asked Elder Fang.
Huang Fan Lao Wei explained: "Zhongnan Mountain was called Dilung Mountain in ancient times, and the so-called 'Earth Lung' actually refers to the ancient well in the Lung Cave in the Dilung Valley, which is still something left over from ancient times. This well is about 100 zhang deep, and the old man once used a rope to hang himself down, but when it fell to more than 30 zhang, he couldn't breathe, so no one dared to try it for decades. At noon on the fifteenth day of February about every ten years, the difference is generally not more than one day, and the ground will rise and fall and tremble, as if the human lungs are breathing, hence the name of the earth's lungs. ”
"It turns out that the 'Earth Lung Mountain' came from this. Elder Fang nodded.
"When the once every ten years 'earth lung breathing' begins, a very strong aura will emerge from the ancient well, which is extremely good for health preservation. And with the rise of the aura, there will be one or two spirit birds flying out of the well, so the old man invited the other four monsters to get together every ten years, everyone hunts and kills spirit birds and eats meat, and improves their martial arts cultivation, our five old monsters can live to be 100 years old, and it is inseparable. Since retiring from the rivers and lakes, the subordinates who worked hard together have all gone to the east and west to start a family, so the five old monsters issued a 'five orders', inviting them and their descendants to come to the earth lung valley every ten years on this day to gather, absorb the aura and taste the meat of the spirit world. In the past, it was all birds such as ibises, cranes, geese, storks, etc., but who knew that there was a blue-headed demon beast today, which was really dangerous. ”
"What is under the ancient well? It's unbelievable that you can breathe. Mo Yan interjected on the side.
The old monster shook his head: "It is speculated that it should be a spiritual passage, which is opened every ten years, so there will be spiritual energy leakage from the spiritual realm and the spirit birds running out." ”
"How long does it take to open each time?" Elder Fang then asked.
"The earth breathed up and down more than ten times, and it is estimated that it is the time to open, which is very short. ”
Mo Yan thought for a while and said, "Lord Zhonggu, I heard you say that demon beasts have mana, is this black gas and water mist?"
"Well, it is said that some strange beasts in the spirit world also know how to cultivate, layer by layer to improve mana, the higher the level of mana, the stronger the mana, this green-headed monster can only be regarded as a low-level demon beast at most, if a high-level demon beast comes to the world, it will cause a catastrophe. ”
"Hehe, who are you, why are you so tall?" suddenly came from behind him.
Everyone looked down and found that the little dwarf sat up, looked at everyone in confusion, and asked innocently.
"Red old monster, have you come back to life?" said the old monsters in surprise.
"You yellow-faced, black-faced, blue-faced, and white-faced, why are you born so strangely, hehe. The little gnome looked at them with great amusement.
"Don't you remember us?" the old black monster was surprised.
"Do you know who you are?" asked him cautiously.
"Who am I?" the old red monster scratched his scalp and shook his head after thinking for a long time.
"Although the man was saved, he was so poisoned that he had lost his memory. Mo Yan said with a sigh.
After the four old monsters were grateful to Elder Fang for wanting to stay longer, Elder Fang decided to wait for Qing'er to wake up before leaving to return to Myanmar to cultivate the "Golem", and they arranged a room for him and the red-clothed heads, and entertained him with delicious food and drink.
The real medicine gastrodia worked, Qing'er's pulse had returned to normal but was still unconscious, and the big green snake was also lying quietly on the stone platform, unable to retract back into a green bamboo cane.
Mo Yan and the little mountain ghost have been waiting by Qing'er's side for several days, and the old monster of Huang Fan asked people to send wine and food directly into the cave every day.
Why are you still unconscious, it stands to reason that there is no problem with the pulse, is there any undiscovered injury? Mo Yan carefully examined the big green snake, and finally found that there were two small holes under its scales at seven inches, probably also poisoned by the blue-headed monster.
Mo Yan fed the big green snake with jade nail water, and then stayed by Qing'er's side, and after about a few hours, she finally woke up quietly.
"Hey, who are you, why am I here?" Qing'er turned around vigilantly.
"Qing'er, don't you even recognize me?" Mo Yan felt a chill in her heart, it seemed that she also had the same amnesia as the old monster of the red fan.
Qing'er stared at Mo Yan, as if searching for memories in her mind.
"Shennongjia, Green Snake Valley, Mo Remnant" Mo Remnant guided Qing'er's thoughts.
"Ho-ho. The little mountain ghost poked his head coldly, blinked his red eyes and grinned, startling Qing'er.
"You don't look like a human," Qing'er whispered as she looked at it.
"Then do you remember the big green snake?" Mo Yan pointed to the green snake lying on the ground with his hand.
Qing'er's instinctive move, her own big green snake body shrank sharply and turned back into a green bamboo cane and fell into her hand, and then stood up with the bamboo cane swaying, Mo Yan hurriedly reached out to support her.
"You're not a bad person, you look good, but I'm a fair person, please respect yourself. ”
Mo Mo smiled bitterly and followed her, walking out of the cave in the ground.
Elder Fang heard the news and hurried over with the Nine Heads Tuo.
"Qing'er, you have finally woken up, you two have already recognized each other?" Elder Fang asked with satisfaction.
"You say my name is Qing'er?" Qing'er looked at him confusedly.
Elder Fang was stunned: "Of course you are Qing'er, a disciple of the deity, have you forgotten?"
"Are you my master?" Qing'er was even more puzzled.
"Qing'er, we are all disciples of the Elders. The red-clothed heads said yes one after another.
"Oh" Qing'er was still ignorant.
Mo Mo said helplessly: "The poison of the blue-headed monster belongs to the spirit world, and the medicine in the earthly world may not be able to solve it, and Qing'er's amnesia may be difficult to recover for a while." ”
Elder Fang pondered for a long time and said, "It seems that this is the only way for the time being, you still go to the National Teacher's Mansion to assist Kunwu, and the deity will return to Myanmar with Qing'er to cultivate the 'Golem'." ”
Mo Yan nodded: "Elder, I want to go back to western Yunnan to visit my parents first, and then rush to Siam." ”
"It's fine. Elder Fang agreed.
The next time, Elder Fang and the others resigned, and the old monsters and Mo Yan were sent to the valley, Qing'er looked back at him thoughtfully, but in the end he didn't seem to think of anything and turned to leave.
Looking at Qing'er's thin back gradually moving away, the wild goose Pai Chengren who returned to the north flew through the air with a chirping, and at this moment Mo Yan had a vague indescribable taste in his heart.
"Ho-ho, we're going back to Chicken Foot Mountain. The little mountain ghost couldn't suppress the joy in his heart.
"No," Mo pondered, "I want to go down to the ground and take a look." ”
"Mo Shaoxia, this is not good, the ancient well is about 100 zhang deep, once used a rope to fall with a heavy object to test, and then the old man set up a roller at the wellhead, and personally sat in the basket to see what the lungs of the earth were, but only down to dozens of zhang has been unable to breathe. The old monster hurriedly stopped.
"Please rest assured that the valley master can hold his breath for a few hours, as long as the rope is long enough to go down to the bottom of the well, it will not be a problem. ”
"Oh, it turns out that Mo Shaoxia still has such magical skills. The four old monsters were all surprised.
Back in the valley, the old monster immediately ordered people to prepare a rope and set up a roller at the mouth of the well.
"Lord Zhong Gu, has anyone ever gone down to the ancient well before you?" asked Mo Yan.
"Probably not," Huang Fanwei thought for a moment and said, "Zhongnan Mountain has had many hermits since the pre-Qin period, most of them are people who have escaped the world and cultivated asceticism, and there are also several small sects that gather like-minded hermits to cultivate together, and the Earth Lung Valley is one of them. When the old man was young, it was only thirty or forty years before the Qing soldiers entered the Ming Dynasty and died, and his parents died in the post-war famine. I had heard the old valley master talk about this ancient well, the earliest origin of this well is not examinable, but it can be determined that it is not artificially chiseled, but naturally formed, you can see the wellhead to know, and the stone wall in the well is integrated. ”
Mo Yan nodded, he had already noticed.
"The old valley master said that it cannot be regarded as a 'well', but a pipe for the release of spiritual energy during the ancient flood period, just like a human trachea. The uniform undulations under the cave every ten years are like human lungs breathing, and the name 'Earth Lung Mountain' probably comes from this. The sect of the Earth Lung Valley was established from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and in the past few hundred years, except for the old man who tried it, he has never heard of anyone going down before, and it is estimated that he can't breathe. ”
Mo Yan was born curious, listening to the Zhong Valley Lord say that no one had gone down for hundreds of years, and he felt the mystery of the lungs even more, could there really be an incomparably huge lung lobe breathing below? But then again, the Zhong Valley Lord was already about to suffocate when he went down dozens of zhang, indicating that there was no air in it, or that there was no qi for people to breathe, and it should not be a big problem to deal with it for more than ten hours with his fetal breath skills.
The next time, the large roller at the wellhead has been erected, more than 100 zhang long jute rope and hanging basket are also prepared, considering that the well is pitch black and two torches have been prepared, Mo Yan and the five old monsters came to the ancient well of the lung cave together.
"Mo Shaoxia, the old man personally shook the reel on it, and shook the rope when he wanted to come up. Huang Fan said.
"You have to be careful. The little mountain ghost told him.
"Don't worry, Dongdong. Mo Remnant patted his combed head.
With the rotation of the wheel, Mo Yan sat in the hanging basket and slowly descended, the well was dark and cool, looking up at the bright wellhead getting smaller and smaller, and finally like a star in the night sky. (To be continued.) )
