After a night of worrying and tossing and turning, Yin Xiu and a group of Miao people set off towards Yufeng Temple.
Yin Xiu received better "treatment" and marched in the middle of the team with Bai Fenghuang, surrounded by Granny Lin and Uncle Qingmu.
It seems that they are afraid that he will act rashly, and they want to consult him at any time.
At this time, everyone was inevitably excited, but there was another stone in their hearts, that is, they knew nothing about everything in Yufeng Temple.
"I heard a legend."
Mrs. Lin smacked her lips and said, "It is said that a woodcutter went up the mountain to cut firewood and saw two old men sitting together playing chess. He was very interested. By the time he finished watching the game, time had passed unknowingly. After a hundred years, the woodcutter’s ax has become rotten.”
"I've heard this story too."
In fact, Yin Xiu should say that he had experienced it personally, because he and Ma Xiaoyu had only stayed in Kunlun for a few days, but more than two months had passed in this world.
It's just that he had already said it once in his dream. At this time, he was facing the two "idiots" Qingmu Bo and Lin Po, and he was not in the mood to discuss it with them.
So he just responded lightly and said nothing more after that.
Yin Xiu didn't speak, but Uncle Qingmu became interested and talked about something he had seen when he was young.
"Actually, the Miao people are said to be small in number, but in fact the Miao territory is a very vast place.
Because no one knows how many villages are hidden in the mountains and ravines.
On the one hand, this is because people always live in groups, and there are always barriers and wariness between each other, so they have to build strongholds, erect walls and towers to guard against each other.
On the other hand, the government is wary of us. They are not happy to see that our power is too large, so they are thinking of ways to weaken us.
For example, moving us to mountains or forests are all their methods.
At that time, I ran around everywhere to find out how many of us there were and what conditions each of us was in.
One day I went to a village and saw the Miao people worshiping a young woman. She was neither a wizard nor a shaman, but they respected her very much and even feared her.
I was very curious about her, so I asked people in the village about her. Later I found out that this girl's reputation in the village was not very good.
However, a few days ago, the woman went up the mountain and came back to announce that she had seen immortals on the mountain, and the immortals taught her magic.
Spell?
My reaction at the time was similar to yours, and I thought this was probably just the woman's method to deceive everyone.
However, after she actually cast or performed a spell in front of me and brought an item that did not exist here, I had to believe that the woman might have really received the teachings from the immortal.
Because that woman didn't look like a person with wisdom, which meant that she had never practiced magic before.
So I believe what she said, which means that after she went up the mountain to cut firewood, she was taught the Dharma by the immortal.
But I won't worship her like others. I have other things to do, which are much more important than staying in the village to explore her.
A few days later, when I returned to the village, the woman was gone.
I heard others say that she evaporated into a puff of smoke in front of the public.
In the following years, I occasionally heard people mention this incident, saying that the Miao people worshiped her as a god and called her Bodhisattva.
I knew at that time that the woman would probably never come back. ”
Bai Fenghuang blinked after hearing this, confused, and just asked Yin Xiu: "Did you get any inspiration from it?"
She is now accustomed to asking Yin Xiu first about everything.
"Yes!"
Yin Xiu nodded, but asked Bai Fenghuang: "How is your reputation in the village?"
"..."
Bai Fenghuang frowned, but silently said in his heart that he should not be angry, otherwise Yin Xiu would succeed.
So she forced a smile and said, "I am a moral pacesetter in the village and a role model for girls. Master, just don't worry."
"That's good. I'm also afraid that one day you will turn into a puff of smoke and float away."
"Thank you, Master, for your concern."
Bai Fenghuang cupped his hands and turned his head away with a dark expression on his face.
"I guess she wants to ask you if you have any valuable opinions, not to start a fight."
Uncle Qingmu frowned and stared at Yin Xiu.
Yin Xiu smiled back.
"This is just some kind of legend or rural anecdote. Even if you are a person who has experienced it, I have heard that there are actually a lot of gangsters in the devil city who use methods that make people confused and believe them to be true.
No matter how rich your life experience is and how smart you are, if you are coaxed like this, you will inevitably be deceived. ”
"You think I was fooled?"
"I didn't say you were fooled, I just said you might have been."
A cold light flashed in Uncle Qingmu's eyes, "What's the difference between the two you mentioned?"
"The difference is huge."
Yin Xiu still smiled, "Fool is a self-righteous person who thinks that the situation is under his control. He controls everything. No matter how you look at it, the situation is great.
But in fact, it wasn't until he failed that he discovered that he was actually following someone else's path.
As for being cheated, it can only be cheated. ”
"I don't know if that person is you, but I think you seem to be a traitor to the White House." Uncle Qingmu looked at Yin Xiu.
"Oh? Do I look so improper?"
"It's not about being serious or not."
Uncle Qingmu glared at him, "I feel that you will lie to me soon."
"I can't guarantee that."
Yin Xiu was not in the mood to argue with Uncle Qingmu on this issue. He just glanced at the mountains in the distance.
"Maybe I was also deceived by others? Maybe you don't lie to others, but you are deceived without knowing it?"
Recalling the dream last night, Yin Xiu felt that everything in Yufeng Temple that she had not yet met had been covered with a vague veil, hazy.
With such a complicated mood, he ignored Bai Fenghuang and just taught her to change from drawing talismans on talisman paper in the air to drawing talisman paper on the palm of his hand.
The difficulty of Bai Fenghuang's practice has reached a new level, but she is enjoying it at the moment and has no idea how difficult it is to remember the spell and how difficult it is to draw.
As for the painting techniques and formulas, because Yin Xiu taught her in a secret environment, even if others saw what she was doing, they would not be able to follow her instructions.
Bai Fenghuang was completely immersed in it until Yin Xiu gently tapped her to wake her up.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with me?"
"It's not that there's anything wrong with you, it's that we are almost there."
Yin Xiu pointed forward, and unknowingly they were approaching Yufeng Temple. At this time, the crane on the eaves of the tall building also showed its outline.
In this way, the white crane spreading its wings and about to fly gave Yufeng a sense of immortality.
At this time, Yin Xiu was already thinking that when he opened the door, the two immortals, one white and one black, with white hair and double eyes, were waiting for his arrival, just like in the dream?
Ye Tianwen didn't walk with them originally, he was just at the front, leading everyone forward.
As the leader of the Mingyue Sect, he seems to do everything himself. Among the thirty-odd people, he looks like a trailblazer. In a team, such a person is essential, but as a leader, it seems inappropriate.
But no matter what, by this time he had already walked over with several of his men.
He first asked Uncle Qingmu: "Old man, the Yufeng Temple is probably in front of you, right? But I'm worried that it will be the same as before..."
He glanced at Yin Xiu, which meant that there might be a barrier.
Uncle Qingmu shook his head, "This is still unknown, but I thought that since we saw the Taoist temple yesterday, the barrier is still there today, and it is also within the Taoist temple, not outside.
What's more..."
He also glanced at Yin Xiu and smiled: "I believe young man that you will not disgrace the reputation of the Maoshan sect, right?"
Yin Xiu didn't reply, but Bai Fenghuang was extremely excited.
"Master, I didn't see clearly yesterday, but today, if this situation still exists, I will study hard and keep it in mind."
"You'd better not expect this to happen."
Yin Xiu gently pushed Bai Fenghuang aside to prevent the two from bumping into each other, and then he asked Ye Tianwen: "Have the spies been sent out? There are also those behind who are ready to support, cut off the retreat, and wait and see. They have been assigned. ”
"Are you teaching us how to do things?"
Mrs. Lin glanced at Yin Xiu and said, "Of course we have our own way of doing things."
"You'd better have."
Yin Xiu sneered, "Just don't take me in when the time comes. After all, exploring this dangerous situation is not an easy task. Maybe everyone will die."
Bai Fenghuang knew that Yin Xiu and Granny Lin would not deal with them, but this was the first time Yin Xiu showed such an attitude, which made her a little worried.
When she was thinking about how to ease the conflict between the two parties, it was Ye Tianwen who spoke first.
"Don't worry, after you enter Yufeng Temple, get the elixir and read the scriptures, I will ask Granny Lin to give you your freedom."
"The leader..."
"It doesn't matter."
Ye Tianwen stopped Granny Lin.
"If you want to fight for the world, you can't hold on to the illusion that everyone will come to help you. Chasing the world must be a lonely road, and you have to fight against the whole world.
It is precisely because of this that the king who wants to hold the world in his arms must enjoy this loneliness and overcome this loneliness. ”
He looked at Yin Xiu, his eyes sparkling.
"After entering the Yufeng Temple and obtaining the great secret treasure, according to the agreement, I will let Granny Lin unlock the head bow on you.
After that, it's up to you whether you want to fight with me or leave.
But I hope there will be a third result, that is, you are willing to join us and jointly conquer the world. ”
"This third type is precisely the most impossible." Yin Xiu said firmly.
Originally, after killing the country's envoy, Yin Xiu thought Ye Tianwen would change his mind.
Unexpectedly, during this journey, his determination to fight for the world seemed to become stronger.
Or could it be that the waverings in the village were just a brief daze, a ripple in his firm state of mind?
In fact, Ye Tianwen has never changed. For him, fighting for the world is the most important thing. Even without the help of the people of the country, he will definitely fire this shot of resistance.
Not for success, just to follow some kind of righteousness that belongs to the Miao people.
"Then we will have another fight."
After Ye Tianwen finished speaking, he led Granny Lin and Uncle Qingmu to the front.
Bai Fenghuang realized it later and finally understood.
"Mr. Lin, the poison was poisoned on you? When did it happen? Was it in the food? No, you should be able to detect it. Could it be the medicine I gave you..."
< br>
"It's in the food."
Yin Xiu grinned and sighed again, "I didn't see the so-called boat capsized in the gutter, that's all."
"But those meals were all brought to you by me!"
Bai Fenghuang frowned, "In this case, wouldn't it mean that I also indirectly helped her and became..."
"No."
Yin Xiu comforted her and said: "For a voodoo woman, there are thousands of ways to use voodoo, right? You have used voodoo yourself, so you know best."
"Which one is that?"
Bai Fenghuang asked, "Maybe I can find a way."
Yin Xiu looked around and lowered his voice: "Don't mess around. You are betraying the Mingyue Sect. No matter where you are, traitors will not end well. There is no need to take such a big risk for me."
"But, I don't think you should have such an experience."
Bai Fenghuang's eyes were already red, and his voice was choked.
It was as if she was also part of all this wrongdoing.
In this way, Yin Xiu is even more unwilling to let her know the truth. If Bai Fenghuang knew that the poisonous insect was hidden in the medicine and was put into Yin Xiu's body by her own hands, it would probably be even more difficult to accept than it is now.
"It's okay."
Yin Xiu grinned, "Your master, I am blessed with great fortune and great abilities. Maybe I just like having her put bugs into my body?"
"But..."
"There's nothing good about it."
Yin Xiu covered Bai Fenghuang's mouth with her hands to prevent her from speaking any more, lest other Miao people hear her.
Then he leaned close to Bai Fenghuang's ear and whispered: "Besides, before Jiang Hair started, you didn't know what kind of poison she cast, did you?"
Bai Fenghuang's eyes widened, a hint of disappointment flashed across his face.
Yin Xiu is right, there are thousands of kinds of voodoos. As long as the caster doesn't tell them, or even if she does, she doesn't reveal the secret to undoing the voodoos. If other wizards want to untie the voodoos, they will We can only try one method at a time.
During this process, the victim who has been bewitched often suffers extreme pain and even dies before being freed from the poison.
"Don't worry."
Yin Xiu comforted her again.
"Didn't we agree? When we get to Yufeng Temple, you will help me untie it."
"But, you are not a Miao."
Bai Fenghuang said worriedly: "I know the personalities of Granny Lin and Uncle Qingmu very well. I'm afraid they can't trust you."
"Like you, I don't understand these two people and don't trust them."
Yin Xiu grinned, "However, I believe Ye Tianwen, as he is someone who wants to compete for the world, he will keep his word and will not lie to me."
"Really?" Bai Fenghuang asked.
"I hope so."
Yin Xiu spread her hands and said, "Resign yourself to fate." (End of Chapter)
