Dongyin

? Said that Duan Hong was so fast that he drove forward for about five or six miles before hastily reining in his horse.I saw the setting sun hanging in the west, surrounded by barren land, and there was no trace of the way when I came.

Duan Hong didn't believe it, let alone any metaphysics.It's just that when she came here, she bumped into evil spirits, which was out of common sense, and she couldn't help but panic this time.With a sinking heart, he untied the sachet, sprinkled the medicinal herbs on the ground, and whipped the horse away.The speed of the horse was not fast, Duan Hong was just able to observe the ground carefully, and sure enough, he returned to that place within twenty paces.

Tried it several times, every time.Duan Hong couldn't help being a little discouraged, sitting on the horse, racking his brains to think back, but when the books were used up, he hated less, Duan Hong only remembered now as if she hadn't read a few books seriously.

Just when she was hopeless, she suddenly remembered that Shan Junxiang had complained that the old man often played tricks on her and trapped her on the grave all night.I also vaguely remembered the Tao in "Qi Men", people with high Tao start from the heart, move with their thoughts, and often use illusions.If those fallacies are true, then these are most likely illusions.

Duan Hong rode his horse around again, guessing that the maze was only 20 meters in radius, stopped himself, removed the silk thread from the kit, tied it to the nock of the arrow, and then took the bow and shot directly. With a sound of "嗖", the arrow went straight through the mound in front of him and disappeared. The mound turned out to be fake!The thread in his hand stretched quickly, Duan Hong hurriedly held it down, felt the arrow fall to the ground, and then moved forward.

Duan Hong drove his horse to the mound, hesitatingly stretched out his hand to touch it, it was indeed an illusion!After getting out of the maze, I looked behind and realized that there was no barren land at all, but a piece of miscellaneous land the size of a paddy field.Annoyed in her heart, she pulled up the string and inserted the arrow back into the barrel, only to see a palm-sized bronze mirror on the ground, facing a lump of yellow mud.

Duan Hong got off his horse and looked. The yellow mud was exactly the same as the mound just now. After walking a dozen steps forward, there was another mirror.

Duan Hong's mind gradually sank, she didn't understand any mysterious hexagrams, but someone wanted to use this to harm her!

So Duan Hong became even more careful, every few steps he took, he had to observe carefully for a long time. If he stopped and stopped like this, it would be dark.Duan Hongjian felt hungry and thirsty, and just walked aimlessly in the wilderness, feeling more and more anxious.She had dreamed more than once that she was walking alone in the desert, and the feeling of anxiety and helplessness was so similar to now!

The horse gradually got tired, so Duan Hong had no choice but to get down, but unexpectedly found the bronze mirror just now!She actually returned to the original place, and she felt a chill in her heart, this is just another bigger maze, is this person trying to put her to death!

Kicking the bronze mirror away with one kick, the horse squatted on the ground with a whine, and Duan Hong had no choice but to sit down against it.

She just starved to death here in such a short life?Depressedly, Duan Hong took out the jade pendant, only to find that it was a smiling Jade Bodhisattva. The quality of the jade was not very pure, but it was considered a good piece of jade.When Chu Xiying gave her the jade, what exactly was he trying to say?

Holding the jade in his hands, Duan Hong thought about it all night.

On an October night, it was already very cold, making one wish to sleep under the belly of a horse.Duan Hong couldn't remember when he fell asleep, he could only hear the sound of footsteps in the haze, as if stepping on someone's ear, it was extraordinarily clear.She woke up in an instant, only to realize that it was dawn at this time, it was only winter, and the light was still not early.She rubbed her eyes and looked around, only to see an old man carrying a hoe coming from the south, who was preparing to sing aloud, quite pleased:

"When the rain is too much, the fields are planted with melons, and when the drought is dry, water is used to irrigate hemp.

There are a few farmer old men who speak a few words of the dealer.

The life of turbid wine beside the pot, the world is big in drunkenness.

Let him sleep in the high willows and the breeze..."

The old man was getting closer and closer, looking at his figure, he was probably the man Shan Junxiang said.

This old man must be planning to harm her, Duan Hong was annoyed in his heart, but he didn't move, he only half-closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.When the old man passed by, he stretched out his foot and tripped.Hearing an ouch, the old man fell to the ground.

"Oh, it hurts, the hoe hit the instep." The old man hugged his feet and turned to look at Duan Hong, staring at him, "You little doll, how did you get your eyes?"

Duan Hong secretly laughed in his heart, so he didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned over and continued to pretend to be asleep.

"You, you, you..." The old man hopped up in front of her, puffed his beard and stared at her, but accidentally saw the jade pendant in her hand, was a little surprised, and wanted to get it.

Duan Hong turned over and sat up, raised the jade pendant in his hand, and said triumphantly, "What are you doing?"

"Give it to the old man." The old man stretched out his hand to take it again.

Duan Hong put the jade pendant in his arms and turned his head away.

"Give the old man a look." The old man laughed and drank and came to her again, shaking the wine gourd in his hand, "The old man will give you a drink."

Duan Hong ignored.

The old man sat back on the ground to drink resentfully, and muttered, "Your piece of jade still belongs to the old man, if you don't give it, you won't give it, cheapskate."

Duan Hong snorted and glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, only to see that the back of his hands was wrinkled and looked very old.She was secretly surprised and thought, this old man really lived to be more than 150 years old, right?

But the old man laughed and said, "When I was born, your great-grandfather didn't know where I was. You baby, full of bad water, swollen the back of my feet. I can't walk. You have to carry me back. "

Can he read minds?Duan Hong was even more surprised, but after thinking about it, if he had known that he would trip him, he would definitely get out of the way.Because he said, "Who told you, old man, that you are full of bad water, trapped me here, and the cold wind blowing all night, I just tripped you..."

"Don't talk nonsense." The old man quickly waved his hands, and said aggrievedly, "It's obvious that you can't get out by yourself, so how can you blame me?"

"Isn't your foot swollen from a hoe too?" This old cunning actually played tricks on her.

The old man laughed, and said, "You are a smart kid, you are a good seedling" and then murmured, "It's just that you lack discipline and kill too much, and you will have to suffer in the future. Why don't you practice with the old man and keep your life safe."

Duan Hong was displeased, the dead old man said that she lacked discipline, her father had never disciplined her, and he still wanted to discipline her.With a sneer, he said coldly, "What's the benefit of practicing with you?"

"Advantages? A cultivator wants to be pure-hearted and ascetic, so what are the benefits?" The old man pursed his lips and sighed, "Your nature is too bad, so let's not talk about it. I will carry the old man back and explain it to you."

Duan Hong didn't move, and said slowly, "You have long feet and people carry you, relying on the old to sell the old." The voice was not loud, quite ironic.

The old man was so angry that his face turned red, he looked at Duan Hong for a while, then suddenly he laughed, broke the sole of his left foot, and threw out the foot with the laces.

Duan Hong was stunned, looking at the black hole with a dull expression.

The old man smiled triumphantly, dragged his right shoe off, threw out his five toes one by one, and said, "Now I have no feet, you can't leave me behind."

It took Duan Hong a long time to come back to his senses, bowed his head and remained silent, she had never seen such a bizarre thing in her age.

"Hurry up and carry me," the old man urged again, "Hurry up, I want to go back."

"I won't carry you!" After finishing speaking, Duan Hong felt uncomfortable, sat stubbornly for a while, and then said, "However, I can give you the horse to ride."

The old man heard this and said happily, "Okay, the old man hasn't ridden a horse for a long time."

So Duan Hong carefully helped him onto the horse.The old man was very happy, looked around endlessly, and said to Duan Hong, "You doll, you have a good heart, if you devote yourself to practice, you will definitely achieve great results."

Duan Hong didn't speak.The old man suddenly yelled again, "It's too cold up here, my old bones, little boy, quickly put your cloak on the old man."

Along the way, the old man made a lot of moths, as if he was deliberately messing with her.Duan Hong missed his feet, never got angry, and agreed one by one.As the two walked, the sun was hanging in the sky, but there was still no end.

Duan Hong suspected that they were still in the old man's trap, and as expected, they arrived at the same place just a moment later.Duan Hong was already hungry, so he dropped the rope, sat on the ground angrily, and said, "I'm not leaving."

The old man stared at her and said, "Why don't you leave, I'll be there in a while."

"I can't get out even if I walk." Duan Hongdao "I'll just die here"

"Get up quickly, I don't even have the willpower." After urging for a long time, Duan Hong stayed on the ground and refused to leave.The old man babbled, threw a small stone to the side, and said, "Little baby, look over there!"

Duan Hong looked at it lazily, and said pleasantly, "It's a small ditch!" It wasn't there just now.

The old man smiled and handed her the wine gourd, saying, "Yes, hurry up and fetch a pot of water, I'm dying of thirst."

Duan Hong just got up and took the gourd over.She walked a few steps, and suddenly saw something lying in the grass, which was the foot thrown by the old man just now.Duan Hong took a look, and was furious in his heart. Where is the foot, it is clearly a white radish!This old man tricked her into deceiving her!

"I'm back so soon." The old man took the wine gourd, glanced at her, and was surprised. Duan Hong seemed to be a different person, with a strong aura, "Why is this gourd empty?"

"Where are your feet?" Duan Hong stared at the saber on the saddle, without any fluctuation in his tone.

"What kind of feet?" The old man chuckled, and suddenly an ominous premonition flashed through his mind.

"I'm asking about your feet!" Duan Hong pulled out the knife, and slashed at the horse sideways.

The old man didn't have time to speak, so he hurriedly slipped to the ground, let go of his feet and ran away.Duan Hongna was willing to let him go, got on his horse, and chased after him with a knife.The old man looked like a loach, and Duan Hong was not good at wielding a knife when he was riding a horse.The two chased after, but the old man finally paused for a moment because of his physical strength, and Duan Hong took the opportunity to whip him hard.

His skin was torn apart, and a bloodstain soon appeared on his arm. The old man was shocked. How could anything hurt him? This person is indeed the reincarnation of Yin Shang.At the moment when he was thinking, Duan Hong got off the horse with a knife.

"Hong'er, stop!" At this critical moment, Duan Hong suddenly heard someone calling her, as if it was Chu Xiying but not like it.She hurriedly turned around without looking at anything, and when she looked again, the old man had disappeared.

It must be the old man's hallucinatory voice!Duan Hong thrust the knife back into the sheath with all his strength, and was about to mount the horse when he heard the sound of hooves.

"Your Majesty!" Yang Zhen rushed over with someone, and said, "Where did you go, you haven't been seen all night!"

Duan Hong's face turned cold, and he said flatly, "I was lost by the demon, it's okay, let's go back first."

The sound of hooves gradually faded away.

"Miss, miss!" Ying'er said anxiously, shaking Chu Xiying, who was stunned by the side.

"Ying'er..." Chu Xiying only grabbed his chest, looked at the already empty road for a long time, and asked with difficulty, "Who is that person?" Is that Duan Hong? Why is he so cruel? Even an old man will not let go.

"Yes..." Ying'er hesitated to speak, and just muttered, "Everyone has their own blessings, let her care."

Chu Xiying only gave a wry smile and didn't speak.

"...Let's go back." Ying'er sighed softly, after searching hard all night, he saw such a cruel scene.Alas, why do people have such things as emotions, isn’t it good to be carefree?
