Hit the yin and yang road

Kou Xuanling went home to worship his ancestors during the winter vacation when he was eight years old, and was dragged by his cousins ​​to the foot of the mountain called Tiewei Mountain behind Bijia Mountain.Tiewei Mountain is an ominous and strange mountain that can be known at a glance. There is no life in the verdant and verdant forest, and death and darkness accompany Tiewei Mountain all the year round.Kou Xuanling asked Kou Ying, "Why did you bring me here?"

"We are going to explore at night, and it is stipulated that everyone come alone at night and get the red cloth belt tied on the mountainside." Kou Ying handed him the red cloth belt in his hand: "Test of courage. Do you want to participate? "

"No. Boring." Kou Xuanling didn't play.Kou Ying persuaded him: "I heard that there are zombies in the mountains, aren't you curious about zombies?"

Kou Xuanling asked them: "Have you all seen zombies?"

"No." Kou Ying and her cousins ​​and cousins ​​shook their heads and denied, "But zombies really exist. I found records in the genealogy. It is rumored that a woman fled to Tiewei Mountain thousands of years ago but was bitten by a zombie for no reason. After the corpse is poisoned, it turns into a zombie, neither alive nor dead. The most recent record is that in the Republic of China, a warlord led an army into Tiewei Mountain, because they found out from ancient books that there was a grave buried here in the Song Dynasty. They wanted to dig the grave, but the result was There was no return. But a warlord escaped, yelling that there are zombies in the mountain.”

"Yes, the genealogy does not deny these records, so there must be zombies in the mountains. We are going to play a test of courage and find out if there are any zombies by the way. Ah Ling, are you really not going to play with us?"

Kou Xuanling scoffed at the test of courage, but he was very curious about zombies.So he agreed: "Okay, I'll play. Whose turn is it tonight?" Kou Ying raised his hand, so he said: "Then I will tomorrow night." body, and then walked all the way back.

"Know your way well so you won't get lost at night. Tiewei Mountain will get foggy at night, so you have to be careful. Remember to bring a magic talisman, and remember to inform everyone if there is anything to do." After the cousin instructed, everyone dispersed.

Kou Xuanling and Kou Ying walked home together when they were about the same age. Kou Xuanling was very curious to see Kou Ying's relaxed and fearless attitude. He remembered that Kou Ying was not very timid. "Kou Ying, aren't you afraid?"

"Ah?" Kou Ying turned around and realized what Kou Xuanling asked, so she replied: "I'm not afraid." He told him quietly: "Actually, when we went to Tiewei Mountain, we secretly told Master Lu Jing, if we secretly told Master Lu Jing , He will protect us. Cousin Xin once encountered fog and was trapped in Tiewei Mountain. She forgot to bring a magic talisman and couldn’t get out. She was so frightened that she cried. Later, she found a lamp four meters away from her. That lamp goes all the way out of Tiewei Mountain."

Kou Xuanling was surprised: "How do you know that the lamp belongs to Master Lu Jing?"

Kou Ying said: "Because it's not just cousin Xin who met the lamp, but also other people. After we summed it up, we found that we had secretly told Master Lu Jing before entering Tiewei Mountain at night. We dare not tell our ancestors about it." Master, otherwise you will be beaten, so I only dared to tell Master Lu Jing secretly. And we found out that the lamp was placed in front of Master Lu Jing, the enshrined lotus lantern."

"Really?" Kou Xuanling tilted his head and muttered to himself.

Kou Ying pulled Kou Xuanling up and dragged him towards the east hall of the altar at home: "Hurry up and worship Patriarch Lu Jing before it gets dark, and ask him to bless you. You, Ling, are also together." When the elders were still watching Fengshui in Bijia Mountain, they first sneaked into the East Hall of the Fatan, took down the portrait of Master Lu Jing from the shrine, and then ran back to the room.

Kou Xuanling's pupils dilated, grabbed Kou Ying and asked, "Why did you steal the portrait of the patriarch?"

"Hush!" Kou Ying put his short, fat index finger on his lips to signal him to be quiet: "Keep your voice down, don't be heard by the patriarch." Before closing the door, he carefully checked if there was any suspicious person outside. After closing the door, Spread out the portrait of Patriarch Lu Jing and hang it in the room, put your palms together and worship: "Is there anything strange about Patriarch Lu Jing?"

Kou Xuanling frowned tightly, "Didn't you say you want to worship the patriarch?"

Kou Ying sternly corrected with a chubby face: "It's Lu Jing's patriarch, not the patriarch." In addition to the Sanqing patriarch, there are two patriarchs enshrined in the altar of the Kou family, and they usually call out their names to distinguish them.Kou Ying said: "If we tell Patriarch Lu Jing about our night trek into Tiewei Mountain in the East Hall, Patriarch will also hear it. Patriarch is very serious and rigid, and he will hit us on the head, which hurts very painfully. .” Speaking of Patriarch, his voice became much weaker.

Kou Xuanling: "That's why you all want to steal the portrait of Master Lu Jing and then tell him?"

"Yes. Anyway, there is still the statue of Master Lu Jing in the East Hall. It doesn't matter if you steal the portrait. Put it back after you finish speaking, Ah Ling, hurry up, let's worship quickly. My father, uncle and second uncle are coming back soon, hurry up after worshiping Put it back." Kou Ying dragged Kou Xuanling to worship Lu Jing's master.

Kou Xuanling stared at Lu Jing's portrait for a long time, then kowtowed devoutly, but he didn't tell him that he was going to go to Tiewei Mountain at night, hoping for the blessing of the patriarch.He is not a child, he does not need to tell adults.

Ah.Misty laughter suddenly rang in his ears, and Kou Xuanling suddenly opened his eyes to look at the portrait. In the portrait, Patriarch Lu Jing was still solemn and dignified, with peaceful eyebrows.And there was nothing else in the room except Kou Ying's chatter, as if the laughter just now was just an auditory hallucination.Kou Xuanling was puzzled, did he hear wrong?

After finishing speaking, Kou Ying took out two half-moon-shaped palm-sized letter cups from the side and shook them in the palm of her hand. After saying goodbye, she fell to the ground, one Yin and one Yang Holy Grail.Kou Ying laughed: "Master Lu Jing agreed."

Kou Xuanling: "What are you asking for?"

Kou Ying took out the letter cup and asked the patriarch a question. If one letter cup is up and the other is down, it is called one yin and one yang, which is the holy grail, and the god agrees to the request.If the letter cup is all down, it is a Yin cup, and the gods disagree and are bored.If the letter cup is called the laughing cup, it means that the god laughed at his question as too boring.Now that Kou Ying got the Holy Grail, it means that the Patriarch agreed to his request.Kou Xuanling was curious about what he was asking for.

Kou Ying covered her mouth and said happily: "I ask the Patriarch to protect you, the Holy Grail." Kou Xuanling was slightly surprised, and Kou Ying continued: "I knew you definitely didn't tell Lu Jing that the Patriarch went to Tiewei Mountain, so I will help you first." Please, don't thank me."

Kou Xuanling rolled his eyes at him: "I'm fine."

"Maybe you encountered a zombie?"

"That's just right, I just want to meet a zombie." Kou Xuanling didn't believe it at all, met a zombie?How unlucky he is.But in fact, this year may be unfavorable. Not only will he get lost in the middle of the second night when he tries his courage, but he may actually encounter zombies.In fact, it can't be regarded as a zombie, at most it is a corpse, a form between zombies and dead corpses.If you drink flesh, you can transform into a zombie.

Kou Xuanling entered Tiewei Mountain at midnight when the moon was shining brightly the next day, and quickly found the red cloth belt along the road during the day.However, his purpose was not to test his courage, but to find zombies.So he wandered around Tiewei Mountain again. Although he made marks along the way, the fog became thicker and thicker, covering all the roads in the future, not to mention the direction, he couldn't even find the marks.

Kou Xuanling started to panic after walking past the same place for the fifth time. After all, he is only an eight-year-old kid.No matter how calm and calm I am usually, now I am alone in a dead space with no way to see and no life, and I gradually start to feel fear and regret.He held on to the red cloth belt tightly, and suddenly heard the rustling sound of fallen leaves being stepped on.

Xiao Kou Xuanling didn't rush out and yell, but immediately hid himself.In the middle of the night, Tiewei Mountain didn't even hear the sound of insects, so how could there be people?He remembered the zombies that Kou Ying and the others were talking about, so he quickly hid.Fortunately, the trees in Tiewei Mountain are so big that even an adult can't hug the tree stump, and it is more than enough to hide the body of a child.

It's a pity that whether it's zombies, walking corpses or shadow corpses, they are all famous for their sense of smell. They can't see but they definitely have a keen sense of smell.All living creatures that are angry and flowing cannot escape their pursuit, so Kou Xuanling soon found that the whirling sound of fallen leaves stopped beside him.

Xiao Kou Xuanling squatted down and tightened his body. After a while, he sneaked around the tree to look behind him, but there was nothing there.He was puzzled for a moment, and gradually relaxed and turned around, only to hear the sound of "ho ho" coming from the top of his ear, as if he couldn't breathe with a walnut stuffed in his trachea.He raised his head, his pupils constricted, and it turned out that the corpse was sniffing life above his head, its rotten head was filled with insect repellent, and it was slowly coming down.

Yin Corpse sniffed and got angry, and then stopped on top of Kou Xuanling's head.The next moment, Kou Xuanling jumped out like a spring, and Yin Zong rushed over with his teeth and claws open. Although he missed nothing, his sharp claws pierced into the tree stump, leaving ten terrifying black holes.

The speed of the shadow corpse is not as fast as the zombie, but it is not as slow as the walking corpse. It is more like the speed of a normal person, but it is infinitely powerful.If Kou Xuanling was an adult, then he might be able to escape from the corpse, but unfortunately he is just a child now, he can't run fast at all, and he doesn't learn Taoism well.

There are many dead trees in Tiewei Mountain, so Kou Xuanling ran around the trees, and Yin Zong moved at the same speed as a normal person, but his reaction and sensitivity were not as good.Run around the tree to annoy it, and later directly tear or break the tree to chase the bandit Xuanling.The icy mountain wind in the cold night was blowing into the nostrils and mouth, burning Xiao Kou Xuanling's throat sorely, and his heart and lungs almost died.He turned his head to look at the Yin corpse who was close at hand, but he didn't notice that he tripped and fell to the ground, and the Yin corpse rushed up.

The stench of rotting corpses combined with the cold wind poured into his mouth and nose, the smell more disgusting than fear made Kou Xuanling almost vomit.The next moment, Yin Corpse seemed to be kicked away by something, broke the tree and fell to the ground.When he staggered up and got up, the short mahogany sword pierced his heart and pierced the tree. The red tassel on the hilt of the mahogany sword shook a few times, and a string of bells hung on it.

The jingle bells rang for a while before they stopped. Xiao Kou Xuanling blinked and was stunned.That mahogany sword was lost during the summer vacation at home last year, and I couldn't find it no matter how hard I looked.There was the whirring sound of fallen leaves being stepped on from behind, Xiao Kou Xuanling hurriedly got up and hid behind the tree, sneaked up to observe after a long while, but was frightened by the smiling face that suddenly appeared in front of him, and threw his butt on the ground.

"Drink! You, who are you?"

The beauty in front of her is dressed in white and her long hair is loose, and behind her is the full moon.The moonlight that could not have been allowed to shine in at this moment, fell on the beauty, as if glowing.The beauty looked down at Kou Xuanling from a high position, her eyebrows were crooked, and her smile was obvious: "You can't even beat a Yin corpse?"

Kou Xuanling immediately retorted: "I let it."

"Oh? Really?" Lu Jing smiled lightly, pulled out the mahogany sword and burned the corpse.Looking sideways at the top of the mountain, where the moonlight gathers on the top of the mountain, there is a small figure staring indifferently at the peaceful world. "Let's go." He held out his hand to Kou Xuanling.

Kou Xuanling tilted his head, handed Lu Jing his hand and said, "You stole my mahogany sword." His eyes rolled around, his expression was very sly and smart: "You have to compensate me."

Lu Jing picked up the child and walked slowly towards the foot of the mountain.As long as he was there, the moonlight was there, unobstructed by mountains and dense fog, as if it was illuminating the way for him.From a distance, one can only see a dim yellow light wrapped in the dense fog, which is not what Kou Xuanling saw at all.He was picked up, all his mind was on how to deceive the beauty.

Lu Jing asked him: "How do you want me to pay?"

Kou Xuanling pretended to be generous: "If you marry me, I will marry you. I don't dislike that you are older than me. I know that you will grow old when you grow up, but I don't dislike it. I will definitely marry you. And I am older When I grow up, I will definitely become very handsome and earn a lot of money, I am the N generation of Tianshi."

Lu Jing laughed, and said, "You gave it to me. If it's not stolen, you don't have to pay for it."

Xiao Kou Xuanling has never met Lu Jing, but he can't directly expose it when the beauty says so, it's too unmanly.Xiao Kou Xuanling's round face was sullen, and he speculated very seriously and definitely: "It must be a token of engagement."

Lu Jing paused. He remembered that when Kou Xuanling gave him the mahogany sword last year, he said it was a token of love, and now it directly became a token of engagement.So he said, "I'm a man."

Kou Xuanling was struck by lightning: "I'm broken in love again?"

Lu Jing thought that Xiao Kou Xuanling had recovered his memory, but after a closer look, he found that he just said this sentence unconsciously.I was a little surprised in my heart, and thought he was funny and cute: "It turns out that Ah Ling dislikes me as a man, and I wanted to agree to Ah Ling's marriage proposal."

"Really?" Kou Xuanling widened his eyes and patted his chest: "I will marry you!"

Lu Jing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't stop laughing, but what she said was: "Go to sleep."

Xiao Kou Xuanling felt puzzled, and when he was about to say something, sleepiness suddenly hit him. Before he closed his eyes, he vaguely saw a dim yellow lotus lantern.And the memory about Lu Jing was erased again. When Xiao Kou Xuanling woke up, he only vaguely remembered that after Yin Shi rushed over, a dim yellow lotus lantern appeared in front of him.

Next, the elders in the family seriously asked the younger generation not to play in Tiewei Mountain, because they found Yin corpses in Tiewei Mountain.

Kou Ying and others ran to comfort Xiao Kou Xuanling with lingering fears. Fortunately, he didn't meet the Yin corpse, which must be because he had paid homage to Lu Jing's master.Kou Xuanling didn't refute, but acquiesced in Lu Jing's blessing, and followed the crowd to the East Hall of the altar to worship Lu Jing.When he looked up, he saw the portrait of Master Lu Jing blinking at him, and this time he was sure he was right.

Xiao Kou Xuanling laughed in surprise, and indeed it was Master Lu Jing who saved him.

In this way, Xiao Kou Xuanling became the crazy fan of Grandpa Lu Jing, and he never stopped worshiping, worshiping, and dancing swords to Grandpa Lu Jing like three meals a day and midnight snacks until he was an adult.Of course, he also completely forgot his "marriage contract" with Grandpa Lu Jing, and he grew up to be an upright straight man of steel because he dedicates his body and mind to the patriarch.
