Celestial masters don't count
Chapter 84 Lies and Truth
It was already evening when they arrived at the camp on the halfway up the Medog Snow Mountain, and the wind and snow began to intensify, so they couldn't continue their journey.
Personnel from relevant departments were guarding the camp, and a minister surnamed Wang received them.
The five people walked all the way, from sweating to shivering with cold, and they were already hungry and cold when they arrived at the camp.
Minister Wang asked them to take them to take a shower, eat and change clothes. The camp has all modern equipment such as hot water and heating.It was originally the help of the Heavenly Masters event provided by the state.
After all, it is a major event, and the state will generally provide assistance as much as possible.
After her body warmed up, Mao Jiu came out and faced Lu Liuzheng at the opposite door, and walked forward together side by side.
Taking advantage of this time, Mao Jiu asked about the Medog Snow Mountain.I have been hearing what they said about the Holy Tomb and the Red Snow Area before, and I am a little secretive, so I am curious.
Lu Liu said: "I just want to tell you at this time, so that you can understand in advance. Medog Snow Mountain has always been rumored to be the final resting place of the Buddha, and it can lead to the Western Paradise. It is the closest place to the gods. The Holy Tomb is the Buddha The cemetery of the gods, the cemetery of the gods. There is a saying that is only heard in the world of celestial masters, if it is recognized in the holy tomb, it can be introduced to the world of bliss."
Although this is a legend that has been widely circulated in the world of celestial masters, Mao Jiu has never heard of it.It is estimated that Mao Lao also scoffed at this statement, so he didn't tell him.
Mao Jiu thought so.
Mao Jiu said, "The Land of Ultimate Bliss? Isn't it sending people to death?"
Lu Liu: "It is true that people are sent to die. But no one believes it. Why do people yearn for Paradise so much even if they die? Because in their cognition, Paradise is heaven, similar to an ideal country, Utopia, and an eternal paradise. Immortal and immortal, always happy and joyful, without worries. That’s why people flock to it.”
Mao Jiu frowned, and retorted without thinking: "It's impossible. Let's not talk about the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss in the world. Even the Buddha has to realize the Tao every day and be troubled by the Tao. How can a person be free from worries and be happy forever? Is it about immortality, do they think they are gods? Birth, old age, sickness and death are the authority of living beings, and they are also their rules. Human beings have not been separated from the rights of living beings, so they have to accept this rule. Immortality does not exist.”
As a celestial master, the stronger the Taoism, the more able to penetrate the heavenly way.Immortality is the right of gods, the right of heaven, and both gods and heaven are extremely stingy, and will never allow human beings to have the right to live forever.But they're also fair.
The lives of all living beings reproduce endlessly, and they are immortal.It just turned immortality into a continuation.
Birth, old age, sickness and death are the rules, the way of heaven.
Therefore, there is absolutely no such thing as a world of ultimate bliss in this world where there is no such thing as immortality, immortality, and immortality.
The Celestial Masters are the most aware of this matter, they will not be stupid to break into the Holy Sepulcher for this reason.
Lu Liu: "You are right. Celestial Masters will not break into the Holy Tomb for this reason, but I heard that the Holy Tomb is the cemetery of the gods. If they can get inheritance in it, they may usher in the prosperity of the Celestial Masters."
Mao Jiu frowned even tighter, and said disapprovingly: "Inheritance? Even if it is inheritance, it's not their turn to come. Isn't it? Every school of heavenly masters has different methods of mind, Taoism, and exercises. Can a holy tomb satisfy so many sects? Besides, isn’t the Medog Snow Mountain the Buddha’s final resting place? It should belong to Tantric Buddhism. Tantric Buddhism has always been mysterious, and their inheritance depends on reincarnated soul boys. Never worry about inheritance. They shouldn't need the inheritance in the Holy Sepulchre, so are they full?"
Lu Liu was speechless for a while, and he found that Mao Jiu was right.
However, "Because some people also say that Medog Snow Mountain is the resting place of gods, so it doesn't just belong to Buddha."
"Then what if you find that the inheritance you found is not suitable for you?"
Lu Liu: "..."
He didn't know what to do either.I always feel hopeless at the thought of that possibility.
After a lot of hardships, wading through mountains and rivers, and facing life-threatening at any time, when I finally opened the treasure and found that it was a worthless thing that I couldn't use, it seemed really desperate.
Mao Jiu muttered to himself: "It's like risking your life to find the treasure of the dragon, and finally found that the cave is full of low-quality light sticks that cost one yuan and two. The young celestial master didn't realize this problem, and the celestial master didn't realize it. Didn’t you realize this problem? Didn’t all the celestial masters realize this problem? It’s like..." It’s amazing.
Lu Liu trembled his lips, feeling very weak.
In fact, he didn't realize this problem either. The main reason was that they learned about the profoundness and decline of Daoism from stepping into the world of celestial masters. At first hearing the Holy Tomb, they would only focus on inheritance.
To a celestial master, inheritance is as important as a treasure to a beggar.The most important thing is that the world of celestial masters really loves the Holy Tomb, not only pursuing it, but also touting it.
Every rookie who has just entered the world of celestial masters first hears the legend of the Holy Sepulchre with a hundred layers of filter halo added. The legendary filter white light blinds their eyes and intelligence, so that... there is really no People realize this.
I don't know when it started, but the praise about the Holy Tomb became popular in the world of celestial masters.Some fledgling celestial masters who don't know anything really think that only the Holy Tomb can save and revive the glory of the celestial master world.
So, Meitu plus filter will really die in sight.But before seeing the light and dying, he did deceive many young and ignorant teenagers.
Mao Jiu hesitated: "Uh... I remember Sixth Brother said that you were the only one who came back alive from the Holy Tomb, so Sixth Brother also went there after hearing about this legend—"
Lu Liu hurriedly interrupted her: "Of course not." With a gentle smile on his face, "It's just a task assigned to me by my master."
He would never admit that he really believed in it back then, and he had great dreams and lofty sentiments to save and revive the glory of the world of celestial masters—who hasn't been in secondary school yet?
At the beginning, Mao Jiu had imagined that one sword would shatter the void and become a sword fairy.
Whose youth is not in the second grade?It depends on your second degree.
Some people are noble and want to save the world, while others are dark and vicious and want to destroy the world. Speaking of which, this kind of spirit is still worthy of praise.
Besides, why do the celestial masters believe it?It's not because the celestial masters are a group of three good and four talented young people who only know how to learn Taoism and are passionate and righteous. More importantly, they were in the second stage of youth when they accepted this legend.
There is nowhere to sprinkle the blood, and the ambition can go to the ninth heaven.
Mao Jiu: "Okay. But the celestial masters also believe in this legend? Impossible, my master definitely doesn't believe it."
Lu Liu: "That's not necessarily true."
Mao Jiu: "My master never told me about this."
If you really believe it, why don't you leave the benefits to your disciples?
As the chief apprentice of Ms. Guo Yuntang, Lu Liushao remained silent at this time, saying too much and making mistakes.The key is not face.
Mao Jiu thought this was a question, but Lu Liu didn't know the answer.He planned to wait until he found his master before asking him, and then asked Lu Liu about the Hongxue area.
Lu Liu came back to his senses and explained: "The red snow area is on the top of the mountain, close to the outside of the holy tomb. As long as you see the red snow area, you can determine where the holy tomb is. The red snow area means that there is an area where only red snow falls. Red Yes, like red snow stained with blood. People and animals can’t get close to it. Someone once touched red snow inadvertently. As a result, their hands were corroded and only bones were left. Someone took some red snow back for inspection and found that it was a highly corrosive substance. It is easy to corrode living things. On the contrary, plants will not be corroded. If you want to spend time in that area, you must spend it when there is no red snow, or wear anti-corrosion clothes. But no one knows how big the area is It is wide, sometimes only a dozen meters wide, and sometimes you can’t see the side at a glance.”
It's better if the area is small, but if it's as wide as the eye can see, then people have to keep walking.Because anti-corrosion clothes may not be able to withstand continuous corrosion, if they are broken on the way, then the whole person will be directly corroded into bones.
And they couldn't stop to rest, they couldn't eat or drink water, and some people died of exhaustion or freezing to death in the red snow area.
That's why it is said that the red snow area is very dangerous, because it depends on luck to determine people's life and death.
Mao Jiu nodded, thoughtfully: "Did the celestial masters disappear after passing through the red snow area, or did they disappear inside the red snow area?"
"According to the signal echo, they walked into a place and disappeared suddenly after passing through the red snow area safely. Later, when the masters went to rescue them, they also disappeared at the same place."
Mao Jiu and Lu Liu looked at the speaker, who was Minister Wang.
Minister Wang nodded to them, then stretched out his palm to signal them to come in and sit down.
In addition to the three tantric lamas who brought them, there was also a young man with glasses in the room.The young man stood behind Minister Wang holding the tablet, pushed his glasses, and nodded to them.
Obviously a career similar to that of a secretary.
Mao Jiu and Lu Liu went in and sat together.
Seeing that all the personnel had arrived, Minister Wang said: "None of us expected this accident. In fact, none of us would joke about the lives of the younger generation of celestial masters. They are all pillars and are the future celestial masters. Of course, you are all the inheritors. In fact, I heard what you said just now, little friend Mao, I can answer your doubts. In fact, the masters have no intention of letting their apprentices risk their lives. We have brought all the words of the six young masters back then, so the test of the masters for the younger generation is actually not to enter the holy tomb. The masters just deceived the younger generation of celestial masters, but in fact all the routes drawn up avoid the route leading to the holy tomb However, the communication tools later showed that they broke into the red snow area... No, to be precise, the red snow area should appear in front of them, luring young celestial masters to break into the red snow area. After breaking through the red snow area, they lost After their news, the masters also disappeared in the same place."
Mao Jiu asked: "Aren't there any casualties? Didn't they break into the red snow area by accident?"
Minister Wang said: "No. We can be sure that there were no casualties when they walked through the red snow area. In order to make them believe in the road map given by the masters, we distributed anti-corrosion clothes and eye masks to them. And in their They have trackers on their bodies, because they are in the snow-capped mountains. If they lose consciousness in the snowstorm and cannot tear off the thousand-mile-one-line talisman, they may die silently. Although they are celestial masters and have good abilities, just in case -We still installed trackers. We have counted that all people disappeared after crossing the red snow area, so at least they can ensure their safety before disappearing after crossing the red snow area, but it is not clear after that.”
Lu Liu raised the key point: "You said that the red snow area suddenly appeared to lure young celestial masters to break in?"
Minister Wang's face was solemn: "Yes."
Mao Jiu looked sideways at the three esoteric disciples who came along, they folded their hands and recited scriptures silently, with worry on their brows.
He was a little puzzled, so he tugged on Lu Liu's sleeve.
Lu Liu explained in his ear: "The red snow area has only appeared in one area since more than ten years ago, and has never appeared in other places."
Mao Jiu understood.
The route drawn up by the masters of the celestial masters deliberately deviates from the red snow area. Logically speaking, young celestial masters will not encounter the red snow area.
Suddenly encountered red snow that deviated from the established area and disappeared suddenly.After the red snow area is the Holy Tomb, so is there some reason for the Celestial Master to enter the Holy Tomb?
Mao Jiuting was puzzled: "If you want to kill all the celestial masters, you will kill them directly in the red snow area. If it is artificial...after all, if it is artificial, even the red snow area before the Holy Tomb is capable of controlling it. If you want to It is not difficult to kill the young Celestial Master. So is there another purpose? I mean, at least the purpose is not to kill the Celestial Master, and now maybe the Celestial Master will be safe."
Minister Wang sighed and said: "We have also thought about this possibility, but it may not be man-made. If it is not man-made, then what is it? At least it is very dangerous and out of control. If it is man-made... there is another possibility, The purpose of not killing the young celestial masters is to lure the masters and cull all the celestial masters in Huaguo."
This kind of speculation was too terrifying, and everyone present couldn't help being shocked.
After a pause, Minister Wang said: "There is still one thing that I haven't explained clearly. On the third day after we could not receive the message from the celestial masters, all the celestial masters' thousand miles and one line talismans were burned. The reason for the first rescue."
Because the loss of information may be due to equipment or wind and snow blocking the line signal, and the Thousand Miles Line Talisman has not been burned, it is taken for granted that there is no danger.
When the thousand-mile-one-line talisman is burned, it means that the young celestial master is indeed in danger.
For a moment, everyone fell into a dignified atmosphere.
After a long time, Lu Liu said: "Give us the road map. There are also equipment, anti-corrosion clothes, utensils and so on. We will set off tomorrow morning. By the way, the red snow area has not changed?"
Minister Wang said: "It hasn't changed. It hasn't changed since it suddenly appeared on the west side of the top of the Snow Mountain a few days ago."
Everyone present said they knew the basic situation. Minister Wang originally wanted to send more people to accompany Lu Liu.
But Lu Liu refused, saying that people are more expensive than fine people.
It is enough to have him, Mao Jiu and the three disciples of Tantric Buddhism.
After all, the holy tomb is the place where the Buddha rested forever, and the disciples of Tantric Buddhism are more aware of the allusions in it.Lu Liu has been to the Holy Sepulcher and knows the way.
But Mao Jiu, Lu Liu said: "My boyfriend."
On the spot, Minister Wang's dignified expression was completely wiped out, which was indescribably complicated.
Young and romantic.
Mao Jiu and Lu Liu ignored Minister Wang's complicated mood and went back to their room to rest.Because they suddenly knew about the relationship between the two, the temporary arrangement of two single rooms became... a couple room with double beds!
Lu Liu stood next to the double bed and sighed, Minister Wang was just a minister.
Mao Jiu glanced at him: "What are you lamenting?"
Lu Liu shook his head, sat next to him and hugged his shoulders: "It's okay. I mean, they will be fine."
Mao Jiu leaned against Lu Liu's shoulder socket and closed her eyes: "Yes."
He knew it would be fine.
With Mao Lao's ability, who can win him?
The next day, just after dawn, the wind and snow just stopped.
Mao Jiu, Lu Liu and the three Tantric disciples left the camp and climbed up to the top of the mountain, at least to pass through the red snow area safely at sunset.
They couldn't spend the night on the top of the mountain, it would freeze them to death.But according to Lu Liu, if they cross the red snow area when night falls, they can reach a village.
But if you fail to cross the red snow area, you must return quickly on the same road.
There was a blizzard last night, and as soon as I went out, my feet sank directly into the snow.Even though he was dressed tightly, Lu Liu's hands and feet were still stiff from the cold.
He is from the north, but he cannot keep out the cold because of his special constitution.
Fortunately, I was prepared, and my whole body was covered with warm babies.
And hiking will still be very tiring, and exercise can relieve the cold.As for Mao Jiu, his physique is slanted, and his whole body is like a small heater.There is nothing to be afraid of in a coat.
The other three Tantric disciples are used to facing this kind of weather, and sometimes the whole winter is much colder than this moment.
Seeing that Lu Liu was still shivering from the cold, Mao Jiu leaned forward and held the palm of Lu Liu's hand. Luck warmed his body.
When Lu Liu came into contact with the heat source, he hugged Mao Jiu.He let out a long breath and felt warm.
Seeing Lu Liu's unbearable coldness, Mao Jiu felt distressed.Just got closer.Fortunately, even though they were about to become conjoined twins, they didn't slow down at all.
"How dare you come here before it's so cold?"
How did you survive without him before?
In fact, Lu Liu's physique used to be more chilly than now, but he was young and vigorous at that time.He first entered the world of celestial masters, and because of his early death physique, no one looked up to him.
No matter how talented he is, he still thinks he is a person who died prematurely.
At that time, Lu Liu was a severely ill patient with the second illness, the less favored he was, the more he wanted to prove himself.As a result, he became a master of Feng Shui. After leaving the teacher, he ran to the Holy Tomb, and he was the only one who came back alive from the Holy Tomb.
Lu Liu chuckled, and a gust of wind blew by, making him tremble uncontrollably.
Mao Jiu hurriedly hugged him tightly.
Lu Liu said: "No one hurt before, so I didn't feel cold."
Mao Jiu glared at him: "Stay away from me."
That being said, it's not that she hugged him tightly and was not willing to let go.
Lu Liu smiled softly: "Okay. At that time, I prepared a box of baby warmers and warm water bags because I used to have them covered all over my body."
Mao Jiu twitched the corner of her mouth speechlessly.After a moment of silence, I couldn't help asking, "How did you spend winter before you were 16?"
Lu Liu comforted him with a smile: "Don't worry about me. At that time, I couldn't stand the cold, and I went directly to the tropics. I lived in a mountain village in the south before I was ten years old. At that time, I still liked—"
Mao Jiu: "Huh?"
Lu Liu: "After I was ten years old, I left the mountain village and went to the tropics. Because it was getting colder and colder, I never went to that small mountain village again."
Mao Jiu: "Oh."
Lu Liu silently breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the topic was changed in time.Let Mao Jiu know that it wasn't his first love that broke it.
Mao Jiu silently led Lu Liu forward, secretly speculating in his heart, always feeling that Lu Liu was hiding something from him.
The two had their own concerns, and they were on their way, so they were speechless all the way.When we arrived at the top of the mountain at noon, we first stopped to eat some compressed biscuits, rested for a while, and then continued on our way.
Follow the route to the west of the top of the mountain, and see the red snow falling from afar.
To be honest, if you ignore the corrosiveness of Hongxue, this scene is romantic and beautiful.
In fact, red snow is not only found in this place, and red snow can occasionally appear in other snow mountains.But that kind of red snow is not harmful, it just looks like red snow because of the red lumps in the snow.
However, the red snow here is highly corrosive, corroding all living beings into bones.It just won't harm the grass and trees.But this place will not produce vegetation, the temperature is too low.
Several people had to take off their overcoats when they put on anti-corrosion clothes.As soon as Lu Liu put on the anti-corrosion clothes, his lips turned pale from the cold.
Mao Jiu looked really distressed.
Moreover, after putting on anti-corrosion clothes, anti-corrosion gloves must be worn, and the whole body is tightly wrapped, making it impossible to touch.
Mao Jiu thought for a while, then bit her finger and drew symbols on Lu Liu's arms.Lu Liu was slightly angry, clamped his broken hand, and waited for it.
"Crazy you, why bite yourself?"
Mao Jiu broke away from Lu Liu and drew a talisman on the back of his hand: "Don't move, let me finish drawing if you really feel sorry. Otherwise, I will waste my blood for nothing."
Lu Liu didn't dare to move, and stared at Mao Jiu's cut finger, as if it hurt him.
"Then don't bite, it hurts. It's not like I can't bear the cold."
"It's biting. The painting is finished, let's go."
Lu Liu grabbed Mao Jiu and stopped the bleeding.With his finger in his mouth, he looked at each other.
After a long time, Mao Jiuhong pierced his ears: "Well, all right, all right?"
Lu Liu let go and looked at it: "Okay."
Just be honest.
Mao Jiu: "Oh, is it still cold?"
Lu Liu: "No. It's quite warm."
Mao Jiu smiled, "Oh. Let's hurry."
The two turned their heads and were about to go on their way. They were suffocated for a moment when they met the indifferent eyes of the three Tantric disciples.
The two of them were very embarrassed.
When talking about love, you will forget the place, place and all humans and animals. This is a disadvantage.
Disadvantages.
They started to walk through the red snow area, the red snow fell on the clothes, Mao Jiu looked down.Looking carefully through the protective glasses, I found that Hongxue was covered with red spar.
Beauty is like a diamond.
Mao Jiu was a little puzzled, but he was too busy on his way to take a closer look.
Without looking at the road, he suddenly kicked something under his feet and staggered and fell to the ground. Lu Liu caught him in time.
Mao Jiu looked back, and there was a human skull on the ground.Below is a complete body.
Walk two or three steps forward, use your feet to remove a layer of red snow on the ground, revealing another corpse.
Mao Jiu and Lu Liu looked at each other with solemn expressions.
According to Minister Wang, Hongxue only appeared in this area in the past few days. How could there be so many bones so quickly?
Where did these bones come from?During this period of time, the mountain was covered by heavy snow, and tourists were prohibited from entering Motuo Snow Mountain after the Heavenly Master Grand Meeting was held here. Where did the bones come from?
They walked straight ahead and quickly walked out of the red snow area.
After going out, they all quickly took off their anti-corrosion clothes, and looked at Hongxue behind them with serious expressions.
Fortunately this time, he walked out of the red snow area very quickly.
Lu Liu said calmly: "Let's go. It's getting dark."
Mao Jiu: "Yes."
Lu Liu and Mao Jiu walked in front, followed by three disciples of the Tantric sect.Lu Liu said: "After the red snow area is a small village, if the rules are correct."
"law?"
"The red snow area is actually the protective barrier of the Holy Tomb. If there is no mistake, there will be a village behind the red snow area, and that village has been inhabited by devout believers of the Holy Tomb for generations."
Mao Jiu: "Could the celestial masters be in that village?"
Lu Liu: "I don't know. That village... is not normal."
not normal?What's the meaning?
Lu Liu: "You will know when you arrive. In short, don't believe what the people in the village say during the day. Don't mention the Holy Tomb. Also, don't show mercy to the villagers at night."
Mao Jiu didn't understand a lot.
But it was too late to ask, because Lu Liu stopped.
"arrive."
Mao Jiu stopped and looked at the village ahead.
It's unbelievable that there is still a village on the top of Medog Snow Mountain.There were still many people in the village, and there was even smoke rising from the kitchen.
Mao Jiu was surprised, but after seeing Lu Liu's expression not only did not relax, but became tense, he understood.I'm afraid this village is not simple.
The Tantric disciples were also very surprised at the village on the top of the mountain, but they seemed to be aware of the strangeness and were reciting scriptures silently.
Lu Liu led them forward: "We can stay in the village for one night, but don't reveal our purpose. There is no need to have more contact with them. If you can't do it, just don't talk. If you want to talk, you have to lie. But, Don't lie during the day."
What the villagers say during the day cannot be trusted, that means they are lying, so why can't they lie during the day?
Mao Jiu felt full of doubts, but didn't ask any questions.
When you arrive at the village and observe for a while, you will know the reason.
They entered the village, but there was no one at the entrance of the village.The whole village is arranged in a circular shape, a bit like a Hakka enclosure.
There was no one around, it was very desolate, and the silence made people feel a little flustered.
They walked inside, listening to the echo of their own clear footsteps.
Surrounded by walls on all sides, it was empty and lonely.When I entered this place, there was no snow, and the ground was very clean.I don't know if the snow was swept away or if it didn't snow at all.
After walking for a while, we came to an open space in the inner circle.The open space is very wide, and there is a round platform in the center.
There is a screen wall above the round platform, and they are a little far away, so they can't see the murals on the screen wall clearly.But it can be seen that the round platform is a place for worship, and the screen wall should depict the gods believed by the village or their legends.
Mao Jiu took a few steps forward, stepped on something, and made a crisp sound.
Looking down, it was a clay pot.
Vulnerable, fragile clay pots.
When you step on it, it breaks and makes a noise.The sound echoed in the empty square, one after another, mixed with the sound of the wind, like the roar of ghosts.
"Are you foreigners?"
Mao Jiu and the others turned around and saw the old man in the shadow behind him.
Lu Liu stood in front of Mao Jiu and replied, "Yes."
The old man stared at Lu Liu, his gaze was like a sharp knife, ruthlessly gouging out the flesh on his face.It seems to be judging whether what he said is a lie, and if it is, he will shave his face.
He was sure that Lu Liu was not lying, there was nothing to lie about.
They are indeed foreigners.
"To travel?"
Lu Liu: "Come and find someone."
The old man asked, "Are they dumb?"
Lu Liu didn't answer.It's none of your business, it shouldn't be his problem.
The old man asked the other three Tantric disciples, and the Tantric disciples recited scriptures in a low voice.So he knew the answer, and his eyes turned to Mao Jiu.
Mao Jiu raised her eyes and said calmly, "I'm not."
The old man said, "Are you looking for someone in the village?"
"Are they there?"
The old man's cloudy eyes fixed on Mao Jiu's face, and he turned his head away without answering.Turning around and walking, he said: "You follow me. The night is coming, and you have to have a shelter. When the night comes, the wind and snow will come. It's going to be cold, and you will freeze to death if you don't have a place to live. There will be carnival at night, you Young people like it. Young people like it, bonfires, parties, wine and girls, you'll like it. Haha, I like it too, but I just like the noise. Do you want a hotel? The hotel is not very good, we only have one here The inn. The place is run-down and loves to charge money. The boss has a bad attitude and specializes in cheating outsiders. Don’t go to the inn. I know a B&B there. —”
Lu Liu interrupted him: "Please take us to the inn."
The old man stopped abruptly, turned his head and stared at Lu Liu coldly.
Lu Liu emphasized again: "Please take us to the inn."
The old man was extremely displeased, he lowered his face, the corners of his mouth were pressed down, and his eyes were full of displeasure.But he still turned around and led the way, but he didn't seem so enthusiastic.
This is a bit awkward to say, in fact, it doesn't seem enthusiastic to talk too much before.Just trying to convince them to live in a homestay.
Turning a corner, they met a little boy and a woman carrying water.They greeted the old man, and when they saw Mao Jiu they also said hello, looking warm and simple.
When I heard that they were going to an inn, I introduced them to a homestay.They said that the inn specializes in cheating outsiders, and the boss is not good.He looked worried about them, and his eyes were much gentler than that of the old man.There are obvious concerns.
Mao Jiu didn't speak, and left it to Lu Liu to speak.
Lu Liu rejected their proposal: "We still stay in the hotel."
The expressions of the woman and the little boy froze, and they said goodbye unnaturally and left in a hurry.The back looks a little unhappy.
Mao Jiu suppressed many doubts and arrived at the inn silently all the way.
At the door of the inn, the old man left without saying a word.He asked Lu Liu.
Lu Liu said: "I came here once before, and that time they persuaded us to stay in a hotel instead of a B&B. The advice was similar."
Mao Jiu was surprised, and remembered what Lu Liu said before, don't believe what the villagers said during the day.
Looking up at the sky, it was almost dusk.
Personnel from relevant departments were guarding the camp, and a minister surnamed Wang received them.
The five people walked all the way, from sweating to shivering with cold, and they were already hungry and cold when they arrived at the camp.
Minister Wang asked them to take them to take a shower, eat and change clothes. The camp has all modern equipment such as hot water and heating.It was originally the help of the Heavenly Masters event provided by the state.
After all, it is a major event, and the state will generally provide assistance as much as possible.
After her body warmed up, Mao Jiu came out and faced Lu Liuzheng at the opposite door, and walked forward together side by side.
Taking advantage of this time, Mao Jiu asked about the Medog Snow Mountain.I have been hearing what they said about the Holy Tomb and the Red Snow Area before, and I am a little secretive, so I am curious.
Lu Liu said: "I just want to tell you at this time, so that you can understand in advance. Medog Snow Mountain has always been rumored to be the final resting place of the Buddha, and it can lead to the Western Paradise. It is the closest place to the gods. The Holy Tomb is the Buddha The cemetery of the gods, the cemetery of the gods. There is a saying that is only heard in the world of celestial masters, if it is recognized in the holy tomb, it can be introduced to the world of bliss."
Although this is a legend that has been widely circulated in the world of celestial masters, Mao Jiu has never heard of it.It is estimated that Mao Lao also scoffed at this statement, so he didn't tell him.
Mao Jiu thought so.
Mao Jiu said, "The Land of Ultimate Bliss? Isn't it sending people to death?"
Lu Liu: "It is true that people are sent to die. But no one believes it. Why do people yearn for Paradise so much even if they die? Because in their cognition, Paradise is heaven, similar to an ideal country, Utopia, and an eternal paradise. Immortal and immortal, always happy and joyful, without worries. That’s why people flock to it.”
Mao Jiu frowned, and retorted without thinking: "It's impossible. Let's not talk about the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss in the world. Even the Buddha has to realize the Tao every day and be troubled by the Tao. How can a person be free from worries and be happy forever? Is it about immortality, do they think they are gods? Birth, old age, sickness and death are the authority of living beings, and they are also their rules. Human beings have not been separated from the rights of living beings, so they have to accept this rule. Immortality does not exist.”
As a celestial master, the stronger the Taoism, the more able to penetrate the heavenly way.Immortality is the right of gods, the right of heaven, and both gods and heaven are extremely stingy, and will never allow human beings to have the right to live forever.But they're also fair.
The lives of all living beings reproduce endlessly, and they are immortal.It just turned immortality into a continuation.
Birth, old age, sickness and death are the rules, the way of heaven.
Therefore, there is absolutely no such thing as a world of ultimate bliss in this world where there is no such thing as immortality, immortality, and immortality.
The Celestial Masters are the most aware of this matter, they will not be stupid to break into the Holy Sepulcher for this reason.
Lu Liu: "You are right. Celestial Masters will not break into the Holy Tomb for this reason, but I heard that the Holy Tomb is the cemetery of the gods. If they can get inheritance in it, they may usher in the prosperity of the Celestial Masters."
Mao Jiu frowned even tighter, and said disapprovingly: "Inheritance? Even if it is inheritance, it's not their turn to come. Isn't it? Every school of heavenly masters has different methods of mind, Taoism, and exercises. Can a holy tomb satisfy so many sects? Besides, isn’t the Medog Snow Mountain the Buddha’s final resting place? It should belong to Tantric Buddhism. Tantric Buddhism has always been mysterious, and their inheritance depends on reincarnated soul boys. Never worry about inheritance. They shouldn't need the inheritance in the Holy Sepulchre, so are they full?"
Lu Liu was speechless for a while, and he found that Mao Jiu was right.
However, "Because some people also say that Medog Snow Mountain is the resting place of gods, so it doesn't just belong to Buddha."
"Then what if you find that the inheritance you found is not suitable for you?"
Lu Liu: "..."
He didn't know what to do either.I always feel hopeless at the thought of that possibility.
After a lot of hardships, wading through mountains and rivers, and facing life-threatening at any time, when I finally opened the treasure and found that it was a worthless thing that I couldn't use, it seemed really desperate.
Mao Jiu muttered to himself: "It's like risking your life to find the treasure of the dragon, and finally found that the cave is full of low-quality light sticks that cost one yuan and two. The young celestial master didn't realize this problem, and the celestial master didn't realize it. Didn’t you realize this problem? Didn’t all the celestial masters realize this problem? It’s like..." It’s amazing.
Lu Liu trembled his lips, feeling very weak.
In fact, he didn't realize this problem either. The main reason was that they learned about the profoundness and decline of Daoism from stepping into the world of celestial masters. At first hearing the Holy Tomb, they would only focus on inheritance.
To a celestial master, inheritance is as important as a treasure to a beggar.The most important thing is that the world of celestial masters really loves the Holy Tomb, not only pursuing it, but also touting it.
Every rookie who has just entered the world of celestial masters first hears the legend of the Holy Sepulchre with a hundred layers of filter halo added. The legendary filter white light blinds their eyes and intelligence, so that... there is really no People realize this.
I don't know when it started, but the praise about the Holy Tomb became popular in the world of celestial masters.Some fledgling celestial masters who don't know anything really think that only the Holy Tomb can save and revive the glory of the celestial master world.
So, Meitu plus filter will really die in sight.But before seeing the light and dying, he did deceive many young and ignorant teenagers.
Mao Jiu hesitated: "Uh... I remember Sixth Brother said that you were the only one who came back alive from the Holy Tomb, so Sixth Brother also went there after hearing about this legend—"
Lu Liu hurriedly interrupted her: "Of course not." With a gentle smile on his face, "It's just a task assigned to me by my master."
He would never admit that he really believed in it back then, and he had great dreams and lofty sentiments to save and revive the glory of the world of celestial masters—who hasn't been in secondary school yet?
At the beginning, Mao Jiu had imagined that one sword would shatter the void and become a sword fairy.
Whose youth is not in the second grade?It depends on your second degree.
Some people are noble and want to save the world, while others are dark and vicious and want to destroy the world. Speaking of which, this kind of spirit is still worthy of praise.
Besides, why do the celestial masters believe it?It's not because the celestial masters are a group of three good and four talented young people who only know how to learn Taoism and are passionate and righteous. More importantly, they were in the second stage of youth when they accepted this legend.
There is nowhere to sprinkle the blood, and the ambition can go to the ninth heaven.
Mao Jiu: "Okay. But the celestial masters also believe in this legend? Impossible, my master definitely doesn't believe it."
Lu Liu: "That's not necessarily true."
Mao Jiu: "My master never told me about this."
If you really believe it, why don't you leave the benefits to your disciples?
As the chief apprentice of Ms. Guo Yuntang, Lu Liushao remained silent at this time, saying too much and making mistakes.The key is not face.
Mao Jiu thought this was a question, but Lu Liu didn't know the answer.He planned to wait until he found his master before asking him, and then asked Lu Liu about the Hongxue area.
Lu Liu came back to his senses and explained: "The red snow area is on the top of the mountain, close to the outside of the holy tomb. As long as you see the red snow area, you can determine where the holy tomb is. The red snow area means that there is an area where only red snow falls. Red Yes, like red snow stained with blood. People and animals can’t get close to it. Someone once touched red snow inadvertently. As a result, their hands were corroded and only bones were left. Someone took some red snow back for inspection and found that it was a highly corrosive substance. It is easy to corrode living things. On the contrary, plants will not be corroded. If you want to spend time in that area, you must spend it when there is no red snow, or wear anti-corrosion clothes. But no one knows how big the area is It is wide, sometimes only a dozen meters wide, and sometimes you can’t see the side at a glance.”
It's better if the area is small, but if it's as wide as the eye can see, then people have to keep walking.Because anti-corrosion clothes may not be able to withstand continuous corrosion, if they are broken on the way, then the whole person will be directly corroded into bones.
And they couldn't stop to rest, they couldn't eat or drink water, and some people died of exhaustion or freezing to death in the red snow area.
That's why it is said that the red snow area is very dangerous, because it depends on luck to determine people's life and death.
Mao Jiu nodded, thoughtfully: "Did the celestial masters disappear after passing through the red snow area, or did they disappear inside the red snow area?"
"According to the signal echo, they walked into a place and disappeared suddenly after passing through the red snow area safely. Later, when the masters went to rescue them, they also disappeared at the same place."
Mao Jiu and Lu Liu looked at the speaker, who was Minister Wang.
Minister Wang nodded to them, then stretched out his palm to signal them to come in and sit down.
In addition to the three tantric lamas who brought them, there was also a young man with glasses in the room.The young man stood behind Minister Wang holding the tablet, pushed his glasses, and nodded to them.
Obviously a career similar to that of a secretary.
Mao Jiu and Lu Liu went in and sat together.
Seeing that all the personnel had arrived, Minister Wang said: "None of us expected this accident. In fact, none of us would joke about the lives of the younger generation of celestial masters. They are all pillars and are the future celestial masters. Of course, you are all the inheritors. In fact, I heard what you said just now, little friend Mao, I can answer your doubts. In fact, the masters have no intention of letting their apprentices risk their lives. We have brought all the words of the six young masters back then, so the test of the masters for the younger generation is actually not to enter the holy tomb. The masters just deceived the younger generation of celestial masters, but in fact all the routes drawn up avoid the route leading to the holy tomb However, the communication tools later showed that they broke into the red snow area... No, to be precise, the red snow area should appear in front of them, luring young celestial masters to break into the red snow area. After breaking through the red snow area, they lost After their news, the masters also disappeared in the same place."
Mao Jiu asked: "Aren't there any casualties? Didn't they break into the red snow area by accident?"
Minister Wang said: "No. We can be sure that there were no casualties when they walked through the red snow area. In order to make them believe in the road map given by the masters, we distributed anti-corrosion clothes and eye masks to them. And in their They have trackers on their bodies, because they are in the snow-capped mountains. If they lose consciousness in the snowstorm and cannot tear off the thousand-mile-one-line talisman, they may die silently. Although they are celestial masters and have good abilities, just in case -We still installed trackers. We have counted that all people disappeared after crossing the red snow area, so at least they can ensure their safety before disappearing after crossing the red snow area, but it is not clear after that.”
Lu Liu raised the key point: "You said that the red snow area suddenly appeared to lure young celestial masters to break in?"
Minister Wang's face was solemn: "Yes."
Mao Jiu looked sideways at the three esoteric disciples who came along, they folded their hands and recited scriptures silently, with worry on their brows.
He was a little puzzled, so he tugged on Lu Liu's sleeve.
Lu Liu explained in his ear: "The red snow area has only appeared in one area since more than ten years ago, and has never appeared in other places."
Mao Jiu understood.
The route drawn up by the masters of the celestial masters deliberately deviates from the red snow area. Logically speaking, young celestial masters will not encounter the red snow area.
Suddenly encountered red snow that deviated from the established area and disappeared suddenly.After the red snow area is the Holy Tomb, so is there some reason for the Celestial Master to enter the Holy Tomb?
Mao Jiuting was puzzled: "If you want to kill all the celestial masters, you will kill them directly in the red snow area. If it is artificial...after all, if it is artificial, even the red snow area before the Holy Tomb is capable of controlling it. If you want to It is not difficult to kill the young Celestial Master. So is there another purpose? I mean, at least the purpose is not to kill the Celestial Master, and now maybe the Celestial Master will be safe."
Minister Wang sighed and said: "We have also thought about this possibility, but it may not be man-made. If it is not man-made, then what is it? At least it is very dangerous and out of control. If it is man-made... there is another possibility, The purpose of not killing the young celestial masters is to lure the masters and cull all the celestial masters in Huaguo."
This kind of speculation was too terrifying, and everyone present couldn't help being shocked.
After a pause, Minister Wang said: "There is still one thing that I haven't explained clearly. On the third day after we could not receive the message from the celestial masters, all the celestial masters' thousand miles and one line talismans were burned. The reason for the first rescue."
Because the loss of information may be due to equipment or wind and snow blocking the line signal, and the Thousand Miles Line Talisman has not been burned, it is taken for granted that there is no danger.
When the thousand-mile-one-line talisman is burned, it means that the young celestial master is indeed in danger.
For a moment, everyone fell into a dignified atmosphere.
After a long time, Lu Liu said: "Give us the road map. There are also equipment, anti-corrosion clothes, utensils and so on. We will set off tomorrow morning. By the way, the red snow area has not changed?"
Minister Wang said: "It hasn't changed. It hasn't changed since it suddenly appeared on the west side of the top of the Snow Mountain a few days ago."
Everyone present said they knew the basic situation. Minister Wang originally wanted to send more people to accompany Lu Liu.
But Lu Liu refused, saying that people are more expensive than fine people.
It is enough to have him, Mao Jiu and the three disciples of Tantric Buddhism.
After all, the holy tomb is the place where the Buddha rested forever, and the disciples of Tantric Buddhism are more aware of the allusions in it.Lu Liu has been to the Holy Sepulcher and knows the way.
But Mao Jiu, Lu Liu said: "My boyfriend."
On the spot, Minister Wang's dignified expression was completely wiped out, which was indescribably complicated.
Young and romantic.
Mao Jiu and Lu Liu ignored Minister Wang's complicated mood and went back to their room to rest.Because they suddenly knew about the relationship between the two, the temporary arrangement of two single rooms became... a couple room with double beds!
Lu Liu stood next to the double bed and sighed, Minister Wang was just a minister.
Mao Jiu glanced at him: "What are you lamenting?"
Lu Liu shook his head, sat next to him and hugged his shoulders: "It's okay. I mean, they will be fine."
Mao Jiu leaned against Lu Liu's shoulder socket and closed her eyes: "Yes."
He knew it would be fine.
With Mao Lao's ability, who can win him?
The next day, just after dawn, the wind and snow just stopped.
Mao Jiu, Lu Liu and the three Tantric disciples left the camp and climbed up to the top of the mountain, at least to pass through the red snow area safely at sunset.
They couldn't spend the night on the top of the mountain, it would freeze them to death.But according to Lu Liu, if they cross the red snow area when night falls, they can reach a village.
But if you fail to cross the red snow area, you must return quickly on the same road.
There was a blizzard last night, and as soon as I went out, my feet sank directly into the snow.Even though he was dressed tightly, Lu Liu's hands and feet were still stiff from the cold.
He is from the north, but he cannot keep out the cold because of his special constitution.
Fortunately, I was prepared, and my whole body was covered with warm babies.
And hiking will still be very tiring, and exercise can relieve the cold.As for Mao Jiu, his physique is slanted, and his whole body is like a small heater.There is nothing to be afraid of in a coat.
The other three Tantric disciples are used to facing this kind of weather, and sometimes the whole winter is much colder than this moment.
Seeing that Lu Liu was still shivering from the cold, Mao Jiu leaned forward and held the palm of Lu Liu's hand. Luck warmed his body.
When Lu Liu came into contact with the heat source, he hugged Mao Jiu.He let out a long breath and felt warm.
Seeing Lu Liu's unbearable coldness, Mao Jiu felt distressed.Just got closer.Fortunately, even though they were about to become conjoined twins, they didn't slow down at all.
"How dare you come here before it's so cold?"
How did you survive without him before?
In fact, Lu Liu's physique used to be more chilly than now, but he was young and vigorous at that time.He first entered the world of celestial masters, and because of his early death physique, no one looked up to him.
No matter how talented he is, he still thinks he is a person who died prematurely.
At that time, Lu Liu was a severely ill patient with the second illness, the less favored he was, the more he wanted to prove himself.As a result, he became a master of Feng Shui. After leaving the teacher, he ran to the Holy Tomb, and he was the only one who came back alive from the Holy Tomb.
Lu Liu chuckled, and a gust of wind blew by, making him tremble uncontrollably.
Mao Jiu hurriedly hugged him tightly.
Lu Liu said: "No one hurt before, so I didn't feel cold."
Mao Jiu glared at him: "Stay away from me."
That being said, it's not that she hugged him tightly and was not willing to let go.
Lu Liu smiled softly: "Okay. At that time, I prepared a box of baby warmers and warm water bags because I used to have them covered all over my body."
Mao Jiu twitched the corner of her mouth speechlessly.After a moment of silence, I couldn't help asking, "How did you spend winter before you were 16?"
Lu Liu comforted him with a smile: "Don't worry about me. At that time, I couldn't stand the cold, and I went directly to the tropics. I lived in a mountain village in the south before I was ten years old. At that time, I still liked—"
Mao Jiu: "Huh?"
Lu Liu: "After I was ten years old, I left the mountain village and went to the tropics. Because it was getting colder and colder, I never went to that small mountain village again."
Mao Jiu: "Oh."
Lu Liu silently breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the topic was changed in time.Let Mao Jiu know that it wasn't his first love that broke it.
Mao Jiu silently led Lu Liu forward, secretly speculating in his heart, always feeling that Lu Liu was hiding something from him.
The two had their own concerns, and they were on their way, so they were speechless all the way.When we arrived at the top of the mountain at noon, we first stopped to eat some compressed biscuits, rested for a while, and then continued on our way.
Follow the route to the west of the top of the mountain, and see the red snow falling from afar.
To be honest, if you ignore the corrosiveness of Hongxue, this scene is romantic and beautiful.
In fact, red snow is not only found in this place, and red snow can occasionally appear in other snow mountains.But that kind of red snow is not harmful, it just looks like red snow because of the red lumps in the snow.
However, the red snow here is highly corrosive, corroding all living beings into bones.It just won't harm the grass and trees.But this place will not produce vegetation, the temperature is too low.
Several people had to take off their overcoats when they put on anti-corrosion clothes.As soon as Lu Liu put on the anti-corrosion clothes, his lips turned pale from the cold.
Mao Jiu looked really distressed.
Moreover, after putting on anti-corrosion clothes, anti-corrosion gloves must be worn, and the whole body is tightly wrapped, making it impossible to touch.
Mao Jiu thought for a while, then bit her finger and drew symbols on Lu Liu's arms.Lu Liu was slightly angry, clamped his broken hand, and waited for it.
"Crazy you, why bite yourself?"
Mao Jiu broke away from Lu Liu and drew a talisman on the back of his hand: "Don't move, let me finish drawing if you really feel sorry. Otherwise, I will waste my blood for nothing."
Lu Liu didn't dare to move, and stared at Mao Jiu's cut finger, as if it hurt him.
"Then don't bite, it hurts. It's not like I can't bear the cold."
"It's biting. The painting is finished, let's go."
Lu Liu grabbed Mao Jiu and stopped the bleeding.With his finger in his mouth, he looked at each other.
After a long time, Mao Jiuhong pierced his ears: "Well, all right, all right?"
Lu Liu let go and looked at it: "Okay."
Just be honest.
Mao Jiu: "Oh, is it still cold?"
Lu Liu: "No. It's quite warm."
Mao Jiu smiled, "Oh. Let's hurry."
The two turned their heads and were about to go on their way. They were suffocated for a moment when they met the indifferent eyes of the three Tantric disciples.
The two of them were very embarrassed.
When talking about love, you will forget the place, place and all humans and animals. This is a disadvantage.
Disadvantages.
They started to walk through the red snow area, the red snow fell on the clothes, Mao Jiu looked down.Looking carefully through the protective glasses, I found that Hongxue was covered with red spar.
Beauty is like a diamond.
Mao Jiu was a little puzzled, but he was too busy on his way to take a closer look.
Without looking at the road, he suddenly kicked something under his feet and staggered and fell to the ground. Lu Liu caught him in time.
Mao Jiu looked back, and there was a human skull on the ground.Below is a complete body.
Walk two or three steps forward, use your feet to remove a layer of red snow on the ground, revealing another corpse.
Mao Jiu and Lu Liu looked at each other with solemn expressions.
According to Minister Wang, Hongxue only appeared in this area in the past few days. How could there be so many bones so quickly?
Where did these bones come from?During this period of time, the mountain was covered by heavy snow, and tourists were prohibited from entering Motuo Snow Mountain after the Heavenly Master Grand Meeting was held here. Where did the bones come from?
They walked straight ahead and quickly walked out of the red snow area.
After going out, they all quickly took off their anti-corrosion clothes, and looked at Hongxue behind them with serious expressions.
Fortunately this time, he walked out of the red snow area very quickly.
Lu Liu said calmly: "Let's go. It's getting dark."
Mao Jiu: "Yes."
Lu Liu and Mao Jiu walked in front, followed by three disciples of the Tantric sect.Lu Liu said: "After the red snow area is a small village, if the rules are correct."
"law?"
"The red snow area is actually the protective barrier of the Holy Tomb. If there is no mistake, there will be a village behind the red snow area, and that village has been inhabited by devout believers of the Holy Tomb for generations."
Mao Jiu: "Could the celestial masters be in that village?"
Lu Liu: "I don't know. That village... is not normal."
not normal?What's the meaning?
Lu Liu: "You will know when you arrive. In short, don't believe what the people in the village say during the day. Don't mention the Holy Tomb. Also, don't show mercy to the villagers at night."
Mao Jiu didn't understand a lot.
But it was too late to ask, because Lu Liu stopped.
"arrive."
Mao Jiu stopped and looked at the village ahead.
It's unbelievable that there is still a village on the top of Medog Snow Mountain.There were still many people in the village, and there was even smoke rising from the kitchen.
Mao Jiu was surprised, but after seeing Lu Liu's expression not only did not relax, but became tense, he understood.I'm afraid this village is not simple.
The Tantric disciples were also very surprised at the village on the top of the mountain, but they seemed to be aware of the strangeness and were reciting scriptures silently.
Lu Liu led them forward: "We can stay in the village for one night, but don't reveal our purpose. There is no need to have more contact with them. If you can't do it, just don't talk. If you want to talk, you have to lie. But, Don't lie during the day."
What the villagers say during the day cannot be trusted, that means they are lying, so why can't they lie during the day?
Mao Jiu felt full of doubts, but didn't ask any questions.
When you arrive at the village and observe for a while, you will know the reason.
They entered the village, but there was no one at the entrance of the village.The whole village is arranged in a circular shape, a bit like a Hakka enclosure.
There was no one around, it was very desolate, and the silence made people feel a little flustered.
They walked inside, listening to the echo of their own clear footsteps.
Surrounded by walls on all sides, it was empty and lonely.When I entered this place, there was no snow, and the ground was very clean.I don't know if the snow was swept away or if it didn't snow at all.
After walking for a while, we came to an open space in the inner circle.The open space is very wide, and there is a round platform in the center.
There is a screen wall above the round platform, and they are a little far away, so they can't see the murals on the screen wall clearly.But it can be seen that the round platform is a place for worship, and the screen wall should depict the gods believed by the village or their legends.
Mao Jiu took a few steps forward, stepped on something, and made a crisp sound.
Looking down, it was a clay pot.
Vulnerable, fragile clay pots.
When you step on it, it breaks and makes a noise.The sound echoed in the empty square, one after another, mixed with the sound of the wind, like the roar of ghosts.
"Are you foreigners?"
Mao Jiu and the others turned around and saw the old man in the shadow behind him.
Lu Liu stood in front of Mao Jiu and replied, "Yes."
The old man stared at Lu Liu, his gaze was like a sharp knife, ruthlessly gouging out the flesh on his face.It seems to be judging whether what he said is a lie, and if it is, he will shave his face.
He was sure that Lu Liu was not lying, there was nothing to lie about.
They are indeed foreigners.
"To travel?"
Lu Liu: "Come and find someone."
The old man asked, "Are they dumb?"
Lu Liu didn't answer.It's none of your business, it shouldn't be his problem.
The old man asked the other three Tantric disciples, and the Tantric disciples recited scriptures in a low voice.So he knew the answer, and his eyes turned to Mao Jiu.
Mao Jiu raised her eyes and said calmly, "I'm not."
The old man said, "Are you looking for someone in the village?"
"Are they there?"
The old man's cloudy eyes fixed on Mao Jiu's face, and he turned his head away without answering.Turning around and walking, he said: "You follow me. The night is coming, and you have to have a shelter. When the night comes, the wind and snow will come. It's going to be cold, and you will freeze to death if you don't have a place to live. There will be carnival at night, you Young people like it. Young people like it, bonfires, parties, wine and girls, you'll like it. Haha, I like it too, but I just like the noise. Do you want a hotel? The hotel is not very good, we only have one here The inn. The place is run-down and loves to charge money. The boss has a bad attitude and specializes in cheating outsiders. Don’t go to the inn. I know a B&B there. —”
Lu Liu interrupted him: "Please take us to the inn."
The old man stopped abruptly, turned his head and stared at Lu Liu coldly.
Lu Liu emphasized again: "Please take us to the inn."
The old man was extremely displeased, he lowered his face, the corners of his mouth were pressed down, and his eyes were full of displeasure.But he still turned around and led the way, but he didn't seem so enthusiastic.
This is a bit awkward to say, in fact, it doesn't seem enthusiastic to talk too much before.Just trying to convince them to live in a homestay.
Turning a corner, they met a little boy and a woman carrying water.They greeted the old man, and when they saw Mao Jiu they also said hello, looking warm and simple.
When I heard that they were going to an inn, I introduced them to a homestay.They said that the inn specializes in cheating outsiders, and the boss is not good.He looked worried about them, and his eyes were much gentler than that of the old man.There are obvious concerns.
Mao Jiu didn't speak, and left it to Lu Liu to speak.
Lu Liu rejected their proposal: "We still stay in the hotel."
The expressions of the woman and the little boy froze, and they said goodbye unnaturally and left in a hurry.The back looks a little unhappy.
Mao Jiu suppressed many doubts and arrived at the inn silently all the way.
At the door of the inn, the old man left without saying a word.He asked Lu Liu.
Lu Liu said: "I came here once before, and that time they persuaded us to stay in a hotel instead of a B&B. The advice was similar."
Mao Jiu was surprised, and remembered what Lu Liu said before, don't believe what the villagers said during the day.
Looking up at the sky, it was almost dusk.
