Hit the yin and yang road

When darkness silently flooded the entire Wei Family Collection, Mao Xiaoli and Kou Xuanling were both trapped in the room. At that time, she was still hugging the unconscious Wei Ning while Kou Xuanling was carrying Qi Yin on her back.The channel of Infernal Hell opened, and the howling of ghosts almost pierced the eardrums.The unconscious Wei Ning flinched a few times and struggled to wake up, found that he was in the darkness and could not help shivering amidst the terrifying howling, Mao Xiaoli hugged him and comforted him gently: "It's okay, don't be afraid."

Wei Ning hesitated for a while, and put his small hand around Mao Xiaoli's neck to express his silent trust.Mao Xiaoli smiled, patted him on the back, raised her head and said to Kou Xuanling: "Old Kou, let's go out to meet other people first. According to this situation, we should use Feng Du's amnesty token, and we have to go out quickly. Chen Yang should have a way... ...Old Kou?" When she took a step forward and turned back, she didn't hear any answer from Kou Xuanling: "Are you there?"

Kou Xuanling didn't respond, Mao Xiaoli walked towards where he was originally standing according to her memory, and she didn't meet anyone after walking three or four meters.She had a bad premonition in her heart, so she walked two or three meters forward and finally confirmed the bad premonition.The distance of five or six meters should touch the wall, but now the road ahead is unimpeded.

It seems that the entire Wei's Collection has not only become a passage to Hell, but even a chaotic space.Mao Xiaoli has only heard about the horror of the Infernal Hell, and has only a little understanding of the passage of the Infernal Hell.She didn't know that this was a chaotic space, and if she took a step, she might run to an unknown place.

Mao Xiaoli recalled that the passage to the endless hell is the place that leads the evil spirits to the endless place. In other words, without the Token of Feng Dushe, she would not be able to leave this endless dark passage, and she would even be led to the endless hell every time she took a step.For a while, she didn't know whether to move forward or stay where she was, and she regretted that she didn't practice well.

Wei Ning raised his head and asked, "Sister Xiaoli, can't we go out?"

Hearing this, Mao Xiaoli smiled and said, "No, I can definitely go out. I was just wondering which direction to go to find Brother Chen and the others. By the way, is Ning Ning afraid of the dark?" Now they are not only surrounded by darkness, but also beware of the darkness. of evil spirits.

Wei Ning shook his head: "I'm not afraid, I'm used to it." Because of the relic, he would be harassed by ghosts since he was sensible, especially when night fell, and those ghosts became more rampant.When I was young, I thought they were friends because I was ignorant, and I was almost pulled into the wall because I trusted them too much.Later, after seeing their true colors, they would be harassed every night.

Mao Xiaoli felt sour when she heard that, she hugged Wei Ning tightly and promised, "I will definitely take you out, don't worry."

Wei Ning: "Where's Mom?"

"Old Kou is protecting...it is Kou Xuanling, a very handsome big brother." Mao Xiaoli took out a stack of talismans from her pocket, and burned them to illuminate the road, but the range of illumination is limited, as long as the direction cannot be discerned Lost even with light.She took out another pile of three-day noble blessing talismans, and then watched with her own eyes that the blessing talismans in her palm were slowly eroded and turned into ashes.

Mao Xiaoli took a deep breath and said, "Let's go." Every step she took almost used up a three-day noble blessing talisman, and after walking about a dozen meters, all the talismans on her body were used up, and the evil ghost sensed that the breath of a stranger was coming towards her. Coming in their direction.They live in the dark all year round, and are particularly afraid of fire, and they will swarm up once the charms run out.

If you run out of the three-day blessing talisman, you may get lost in the passage, and you will never be able to go out again.Mao Xiaoli's palms were sweating, cold sweat was also breaking out on her forehead, and her breathing was short of breath. She didn't know whether she should bet on her luck.She recalled the number of lottery draws since she was a child, and she almost missed every round.Thinking about it this way made me even more nervous.

Mao Xiaoli stretched out her foot, and just when she was about to land, she heard Wei Ning say: "I think... it's better to go to the left."

Mao Xiaoli turned her head in a jerk and almost sprained her neck, but the pain in her neck was not as good as her excitement.She said, "Ning Ning can tell the direction?"

Wei Ning shook his head: "I can't tell the difference, but I think we should go here. Because there are many voices in front, and there are fewer voices on the left." He couldn't describe exactly what he heard and felt. He only knew that if he walked forward, he would Fall into a deep pit, and be torn apart by the wailing ghosts below.

Mao Xiaoli hugged Wei Ning tightly: "Okay, let's go to the left. If Ning Ning feels it, tell me, don't be afraid."

After she finished speaking, she walked forward according to the path Wei Ning pointed out, and the light of the talisman slowly went out.Mao Xiaoli lit the magic talisman just as the evil spirits were rushing towards her and continued to walk forward. There were only two talismans left in her pocket. When she lit the last talisman, she finally met Zhang Qiudao who came to look for her.

Walking in the darkness, the bright fire light gradually illuminated Zhang Qiudao's figure and face, and only her figure was in the black pupils.Zhang Qiudao's first sentence: "Are you okay?" The second sentence: "I'm here, don't be afraid."

Mao Xiaoli bit her cheek and sniffled her nose, she held the clothes on Zhang Qiudao's arm tightly with her free hand, bowed her head for a long while without saying a word.Zhang Qiudao stared at her quietly with downcast eyes, his eyes were full of tenderness, but at the moment Mao Xiaoli lowered her head and didn't see it.

Mao Xiaoli: "Thank you."

Zhang Qiudao smiled, took Wei Ning in her arms, and covered Mao Xiaoli's hand who was holding the clothes on her arm with his other hand, and did not let go after holding it. "Come on, I'll take you out."

Mao Xiaoli: "Can I go out?"

"Have to try."

Zhang Qiudao led the way ahead, and Mao Xiaoli's gaze slipped from his serious side face to the hands holding each other. The panic and fear in her heart seemed to have found a backing at this moment, and they were all dispelled.She felt more at ease and more secure than ever before.She summoned up the courage to ask, "Did you come to find me specially, or did you meet me by accident?"

Zhang Qiudao: "You have the final say."

"what?"

"It's up to you what you think."

Mao Xiaoli frowned: "What do you mean, just say it, don't avert your eyes. What I think is all my business. How do you do it and what do you mean? If you don't explain it clearly, how will I know?"

"Are you sure you want to talk about this kind of topic in front of children?" Zhang Qiudao glanced back at Mao Xiaoli, and found it funny to see her choked and speechless.So he laughed out loud: "It's really stupid."

Mao Xiaoli chuckled twice. Ma Shanfeng mentioned in the experts' remarks on science popularization that usually nothing happens. If a person is in a desperate situation for a period of time, he will develop a dependent liking for the first person who appears in front of her.It seems that these experts' remarks are not all bragging. Fortunately, this kind of false and unreliable dependence favorability is relatively short-lived, and it will soon make people sober.

She wanted to shake off her hand and walk away by herself, but Zhang Qiudao tightened his grip and said, "Are you still angry with me at this time? Holding hands will prevent you from stepping out and walking away. Don't waste time and effort looking for you at that time." .”

Mao Xiaoli: "Can you say something nice?"

"You want to hear good things from me?" Zhang Qiudao asked back.

Mao Xiaoli thought for a while: "Forget it, you choose to shut up is my greatest hope." Hearing this, Zhang Qiudao hummed softly, with a smile that could be easily captured.

Zhang Qiudao: "Do you still have the talisman?" The fire above his head gradually weakened and was about to go out. He no longer has the talisman, so I don't know if Mao Xiaoli still has it.Mao Xiaoli rummaged through her pockets but couldn't find the talisman: "It's gone, and you've used it up too?"

Zhang Qiudao: "Don't you always carry a lot of talismans in your pocket? Are you using them so quickly?"

Hearing this, Mao Xiaoli coughed a few times in embarrassment: "Sold, sold."

Zhang Qiudao was speechless: "... Mao Xiaoli, can't you be less greedy for money?"

Mao Xiaoli plausibly said: "A gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way, and I have not harmed the interests of others. Besides, people have their own loves, and I love money."

Zhang Qiudao: "Then I'll give you all my money, do you want it?"

Mao Xiaoli froze for a moment, then pretended not to hear and continued: "Haha, I don't really love money, otherwise so many big orders in the sub-bureau would have taken over. Even if the grade is not enough, I can cooperate with others to drink some broth, But I said that a gentleman loves money to get it, and I am just keen to sell talismans to make money and enjoy the process." After she smiled awkwardly, she quickly changed the subject: "You and I have used up the talismans, so what should we do now? "

The last light of the magic talisman extinguished and fell, and the surroundings fell into darkness again.The evil spirits watching them rushed towards them like a dog smelling the smell of meat. Mao Xiaoli was about to make a move, but Zhang Qiudao grabbed her hand and said, "Don't let go."

Mao Xiaoli: "Don't let go now and wait for the evil spirits to pounce on you, tear them up and eat them up?"

Zhang Qiudao: "Let go now, where can I find you later?"

"I——" Mao Xiaoli was stunned, suddenly aware of the danger, she immediately raised her sword formula, using her fingers as a sword, and quickly made handprints to suppress the attacking evil spirits: "I can't suppress it." The evil spirits came from all directions, salivating Three raw human bodies, they have been hungry for a long time, eager to return to the world.So it is impossible to let them go.Mao Xiaoli put her sword finger in front of her chest and said, "Break out, force your way out."

Zhang Qiudao heard the wailing of the evil ghost in his ear, and said, "One man can't defeat a thousand troops, not to mention that we have run out of talismans, and we don't have any suitable magic tools around us. And the time is limited, we must hurry up before Feng Dushe's token expires." Only after meeting with Chen Yang and the others can we leave here." He suddenly turned around and handed Wei Ning in his arms to Mao Xiaoli: "He can lead you to find Chen Yang and the others, hold me and rush out later."

"Shall I break out?" Mao Xiaoli said, "What about you?"

Zhang Qiudao: "I will lure them away." When Mao Xiaoli was about to refuse, she was quickly blocked: "Don't be self-willed, one who can go is one. I have a treasure of merit on my body, and they dare not attack me. I will take them away." Immediately go to find you guys after being lured away—" He patted her on the head: "Mao Xiaoli, be good, just listen to me once."

Mao Xiaoli shook her head: "No. My Mao family is not cowardly, greedy for life and afraid of death. You have merits and treasures, and I also have cards that I haven't shown. It's just thousands of ghosts. I, Mao Xiaoli, grew up seeing ghosts. Afraid?"

At this time, Zhang Qiudao lit the rhinoceros horn in his hand, looked up at Mao Xiaoli fixedly, and laughed for a long time: "Usually, when drawing talismans, you spend three days fishing and two days drying the net. What cards do you have?" He turned around slowly. Walking into the darkness: "I have something to tell you, I'll talk about it when I go back."

Mao Xiaoli stared at the ignited rhinoceros horn in his hand, and quickly stepped forward to snatch it away, but unfortunately Zhang Qiudao was no longer visible after taking a step forward.She stood there in a daze, not knowing how to react for a while.

Wei Ning asked cautiously: "Sister Xiaoli, are you crying? Is brother in danger?"

Mao Xiaoli realized that she was crying when she came back to her senses. After wiping away her tears, she hugged Wei Ning tightly and said calmly, "He will be fine, let's go first."

Ghosts can be seen when the rhino shines on Niuzhuji. There is a story in the Jin Dynasty that Wen Qiao, a man from Jin, passed by Niuzhuji and saw that the water was unfathomable.Yin and yang are different, ghosts collide with yang qi, and Wen Qiao, a native of Jin, died because of this.There are folk rumors that rhinoceros photos can see ghosts. In fact, rhinoceros photos can not only see ghosts, but also attract ghosts.

Mao Xiaoli was silent all the way, her face was pale but the light in her eyes was getting brighter and brighter, she seemed to be walking forward aimlessly, but every step she took had a plan.The talents of the Mao family have always been terrifying. If they are willing, they will definitely be able to find a way out in desperate situations.Coupled with the help of Wei Ning, who devoured the relics, they soon met Chen Yang, Kou Xuanling and others.

Mao Xiaoli thought that when she saw Chen Yang and the others, she couldn't help being wronged and crying and complaining about her fear, but in fact she didn't, she was very calm.After handing Wei Ning to Kou Xuanling, he mentioned Zhang Qiudao, who led away all ghosts, to others: "I want to find him."

Chen Yang refused her request without hesitation, then handed over the token of Feng Du's amnesty to Kou Xuanling, and set out to find it by himself.Mao Xiaoli wanted to follow but was rejected, she only hesitated for a few seconds before compromising.In an instant, she knew what everyone didn't say because she was shallow.Even if she wanted to help, she would only be a hindrance. She had never realized how weak she was so clearly like now.

Kou Xuanling looked at her with worry when she went back, Mao Xiaoli couldn't smile and said: "I'm fine, and I'm sober. Let's leave the passage now." She paused and asked: "Let's leave like this, Chen Yang and Zhang Can you come out without the token of Feng Du's amnesty without seeking the Tao?"

Kou Xuanling: "It's okay. Did you forget to check the game?"

Mao Xiaoli left the passage of hell behind everyone, and stood in the living room on the first floor of Wei's Collection, while the continuous heavy rain outside had stopped at this time, and the sky was slightly bright.Suddenly a warm hand touched her head, and Mao Xiaoli subconsciously turned her head to see the smiling Kou Xuanling.Kou Xuanling said: "Don't worry about Zhang Qiudao, he will be fine."

Mao Xiaoli blinked: "Yes."

Chen Yang finally brought Zhang Qiudao back. He was seriously injured and lay in bed for a few days, while Mao Xiaoli also took care of him for several days.In fact, Zhang Qiudao had been fine for a long time. Mao Xiaoli knew it well, but she didn't say anything.It wasn't until I figured it out that I took advantage of everyone's presence and said to them, "I want to go back to Maoshan."

Naturally, everyone rejected it, and Chen Yang said: "Unless you convince me, I can't expel you."

Mao Xiaoli said: "Go back to Maoshan and learn Taoism." When the children of the Mao family are enlightened, they will go back to Maoshan to learn Taoism.

Chen Yang compromised: "The sub-bureau will always reserve a position for you. If you succeed in your studies, you still have to come back."

Mao Xiaoli raised her eyes, looking at the people who kept her, she was quite moved. "Well, I didn't want to leave." She hated Chen Yang's cooking skills, Ma Shanfeng's self-brewed fruit wine, and everyone.Of course, at this moment, it seems that she is even more reluctant to bear the person who appeared in front of her when she was frightened and led away all ghosts for her.

After everyone went out, only Mao Xiaoli and Zhang Qiudao were left in the room.Mao Xiaoli fiddled with the porridge bowl, but did not speak.Zhang Qiudao stared straight at her, his voice was freezing cold: "You don't have to go, if I cause you trouble, just don't appear in front of you again in the future."

Mao Xiaoli raised her eyes in surprise: "What nonsense are you talking about? Did you hurt your brain?" She raised her hand to touch Zhang Qiudao's forehead, but was grabbed by her wrist.Zhang Qiudao grabbed her wrist and did not let go, and asked her unabashedly, "Do you accept or refuse?"

Mao Xiaoli: "Huh?"

Zhang Qiudao: "I like your work."

Mao Xiaoli: "Hush!" Pointing to the closed door to signal that a bunch of mice outside were eavesdropping, then she took out her mobile phone and whispered: "Wechat said." She buried her head and typed a line on the mobile phone: [I don't know, no Answer. 】

After Zhang Qiudao finished reading, he frowned and stared at her, Mao Xiaoli turned a blind eye and continued typing: [Let me think about it, I didn't plan to fall in love and get married, but a sudden incident disrupted my future plans, and I didn't have time to think about it.This incident was like a world-shaking event for me, turning my future into an invisible vortex. 】

Zhang Qiudao didn't ask for an answer after reading it. Instead, he calmly prepared her luggage and sent her to the train station.Then I came back and took out my mobile phone to read this passage repeatedly, disassembling and reassembling each word and engraving it in my heart.

Mao Xiaoli didn't respond directly, but the lines between the lines showed that she was confused.She considered Zhang Qiudao into her future, so that even if the plan of not getting married in the future was disrupted, she didn't cut it out completely, and she didn't completely deny Zhang Qiudao a chance.Mao Xiaoli is usually laughing and joking, she doesn't seem to think too much about the future and just wants to have fun in time, but in fact her goal is very firm.

Timely gratification is just her attitude towards life. She likes to go to small alleys to trick customers into buying her peach blossom talismans and fortune talismans, she likes to roll on Big Fatty to annoy him, she likes to steal Ma Shanfeng's tea set, and she also likes to stay up late secretly to proclaim for Kai. Writing summer homework, I was stumped by a simple question about chickens and ducks in the same cage.Mao Xiaoli is always twittering and frizzy, people who don't have a deep understanding will feel bored, but if you lose such a simple, easy to satisfy, always happy and energetic person in your life, you will feel extremely lonely.

Zhang Qiudao entered five words in the writing box: 【I'll wait for you to come back. 】

Mao Xiaoli only received the letter when she got off the car, smiled for a long time, and replied with a smile.When she got home, she locked herself in the room for a few days, and then she came out and said to the people sitting around the dining table, "I have enlightened, and I want to retreat and practice. Don't disturb me!"

The Mao family glanced at her blankly, said 'oh' and continued to eat.When Mao Xiaoli went downstairs to eat at night, the Mao family was sitting together, and Mao Xiaoli's elder brother Mao Xiaoying suddenly got out of the rice bowl: "Xiao Li, don't you want to practice in seclusion?"

Mao Xiaoli rolled her eyes: "I want to practice in seclusion, not bigu." She also needs to eat, otherwise where would she have the strength to practice magic?

"Yes." Mao Xiaoying asked her again: "Why did you suddenly become enlightened?"

Mao Xiaoli ignored him, and continued to pick up the rice very quickly, and filled the second bowl of rice while Mao Xiaoying continued to talk.Mao Xiaoying continued to say slowly: "If the Mao family is enlightened, it must be a sudden epiphany after encountering a major blow in life. For example, Dad was almost ntr by a friend back then—"

Papa Mao threw the chopsticks in his hand like darts at Mao Xiaoying's face, then took out new chopsticks from under the table and continued eating.Mao Xiaoying clamped the chopsticks, gently put them on the table and continued: "I almost killed my friend when I fell into a ghost cave. The aunts only got enlightened because of their relationship problems. So Xiaoli, you—"

"Bang!" The bowls in the hands of the Mao family smashed onto the table, and they looked at Mao Xiaoli.The aunts of the Mao family were heartbroken: "Xiao Li, who failed you? Let's kill him." Father Mao asked excitedly: "Have you got a date?"

Mao Xiaoli put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hand and burped: "I'm full, let's go upstairs to practice spells first, and you eat slowly." After speaking, she got up and wanted to go upstairs.Mao's father stopped her from leaving, Mao Xiaoli smiled coldly: "There is only the last bowl of rice left in the pot, do you still have time to discuss my love life with me?"

Papa Mao was startled, and subconsciously looked at the rice cooker.But at this time, Aunt Mao, who was closest to the rice cooker, took the last bowl of rice: "Proceed."

Mao Xiaoying looked at the half-eaten rice in the bowl, and said after a while, "I only have one bowl..."

Mama Mao smiled kindly: "Come on next time, keep up the good work."

When Mao Xiaoying set off for the Taoist Association, Mao Xiaoli specially handed him a photo of Zhang Qiudao: "Pay attention to this person."

Mao Xiaoying stared at it for a while: "I remember. Is this brother-in-law?"

Mao Xiaoli looked up at the sky: "Maybe."

Mao Xiaoying: "Oh, brother-in-law." I will definitely get along well and make fists.

A month later, a great event happened in the Mao family, and Mao Zhen, who had been in a coma for more than [-] years, came to life.The whole family was immersed in joy. Originally, the family asked Mao Xiaoying to take Mao Zhensheng's soul back to Maoshan immediately, but there was a Taoist cultural festival held at Longhushan, and Mao really wanted to stay there to participate in the Taoist cultural festival before leaving.At this time, the Mao family naturally obeyed Mao Zhen, as long as he was happy.

Mao Xiaoli took this opportunity to buy a flight ticket to Longhushan, of course she bought a special ticket, and sneaked out at night.As a result, she was caught by Mao's father when she was at the door, and Mao Xiaoli shook her arms and legs: "I'm going out for a walk."

Father Mao's eyes were meaningful: "Women are not allowed to stay in college." After speaking, he turned back.

Mao Xiaoli twitched for a while, almost wanting to tear Papa Mao up.Obviously seeing everything in his eyes but not saying anything, squatting at the door in the middle of the night just to say this sentence.Mao Xiaoli was furious: "Don't you just eat more? It's time to lose weight." Mao's father's figure tends to walk in the direction of middle-aged and elderly men's fat, because this is often attacked by the Mao family's female relatives, asking him to eat less .

She didn't buy a plane directly to Longhushan, but she wanted to transfer to another province to live for a day before transferring to the plane.Because he left in a hurry, he couldn't buy consecutive flights. At that time, Zhang Qiudao told her about the interesting things he encountered during the trip as usual.

Mao Xiaoli couldn't help but said: "I want to participate in the Longhushan Taoist Cultural Festival, I heard it's very interesting... I'm already on my way."

There was a long silence before saying, "I'll pick you up."

Mao Xiaoli smiled: "Yes."

When the Taoist Cultural Festival comes, countless people light their own Kongming lanterns.When Mao Xiaoli got off the car, she saw that the city was full of Kongming lanterns, and the orange light was shining in the sky above her head. It was warm and beautiful, and it carried the good expectations of countless people.The crowd was noisy, and Mao Xiaoli couldn't make a phone call or voice, so she sent a message.

Zhang Qiudao kept staring at the phone and received the message immediately.

[I'll go there now. 】

When the Taoist prayer for disaster relief began, people flooded into the Tianshi Mansion like a tide, and soon there were only a few scattered people left on the street.At the time when the spiritual sound was overwhelming, clear and loud, and the sound of gold and jade was like the joy of heaven, Mao Xiaoli saw Zhang Qiudao standing in front of her.

"The question you asked me at that time, I can answer you now." Mao Xiaoli said, "I accept it."

The author has something to say: ntr: refers to the spouse or object being robbed.
