Stone House

Yan back to the room

Yan Hui's room is just like Yan Xiaoan's room, simple and unadorned.One bed and one table, things are placed together.There was a small statue on the table, with four heads and eight arms, and a ferocious face. It was the evil god enshrined by the common belief of the demon religion, King Tiansha Ming.

Zhengxi, which is also the direction that Yanhui and the great wizard are facing now, is a smooth stone wall. Judging from its texture and color, it should be the surface of the mountain when the stone house was built next to the mountain. It turned out that there was a picture of the blue sky connecting the sea on the wall. , now rolled up and placed on Yan Hui's bed.

There was no moonlight in the inner room, it was very dark, and the big wizard with broad arms and a black robe could be vaguely seen.

Yan stepped forward, gently placed her hand on the stone wall, the blue light flickered slightly.

Suddenly there was a deep rumbling sound, and a gap was split in the middle of the stone wall, and a faint white light shot out from it, like the halo of a green moon, and the darkness was gently pushed away.

The cracks slowly widened, and the rumbling sound never stopped.

Finally, a hole was exposed.

There is a secret passage hidden in Yanhui's room!

The entrance of the tunnel is as white as water, one foot long and wide, in a square shape, slanting downward, seemingly endless, and I don't know where it leads.

Yan Hui stepped into the tunnel first, and the great wizard behind him didn't say anything, just took a step forward and followed into the tunnel.

The moment the great wizard retracted his hind legs, the low rumbling sound came again, and the stone door behind him slowly closed.

The two stood side by side, stepping on the stone steps, going down step by step, there is a night pearl every ten feet in the tunnel wall, and the faint light is emitted by it.

With this faint twilight, I can finally see the true face of the Great Wizard!

This is a mysterious great wizard who is regarded as a god in southern Xinjiang!

The great wizard was about 40 years old, and he wore a black wizard robe wrapped around his body, but it didn't look too big.A pair of eyes are full of light, with profound wisdom.His figure was as tall and straight as a mountain, and even though his face looked a little ordinary, it immediately gave people a feeling of kindness and awe.

The two were silent all the way, with a tacit understanding in their hearts, neither of them made a sound, they kept moving forward, there was no sound, only the sound of their footsteps swayed away, hit the four walls, and then echoed back.I don't know how long it has passed, and I don't know how far I have walked, maybe I am almost at the bottom of the mountain.

The surrounding environment is no longer an unchanging stone wall, but night pearls every ten feet.The surrounding air is getting colder, and the walls have already been covered with a layer of frost.

The two of them have long since survived the cold and heat, and they may have known about the situation on the road long ago.He continued to move forward as if he hadn't seen it, without a fork in the road, and slanted down.

As we entered the depths, the temperature became lower, and ice had begun to form on the walls.

Ice and frost cover the tunnel wall together, accompanied by a faint white light, reflecting and interdependent, the frost is densely covered, and it is very beautiful. It is like a mural narrating the past events that shocked the world and wept ghosts and gods. There also seems to be a faint long song echoing in it.

cramped tunnel,

cold lonely air,

Walking silently,

It suppresses people's emotions.

Finally, a stone gate blocked the way, and the two reached the end of the tunnel.Strangely, the walls are covered with ice, but the stone gate is only covered with light frost.

This time Yan Hui and the great wizard stepped forward together, Yan Hui was on the left, and the great wizard was on the right, and at the same time put their hands on both sides of the stone gate.Although there are no markings on the stone gate, the movements of the two are amazingly consistent, Yanhui stretches out his right hand, the great wizard stretches out his left hand, the cold air lingers, and witch power and spiritual power dance wildly.

Blue light and black light flickered at the same time, the frost-covered stone door suddenly flowed like blood, and the lines of red-like blood jade suddenly lit up, followed by a deep rumbling sound, and the stone door slowly opened to both sides.

A brighter light is like breaking free from the shackles from Jiuyou just now, bringing rebirth and longing for freedom!Tear through the darkness and break out of the sky!

The cold air rushed out of the door like a raging wave, and the clouds and mist rolled, like a flood, more like a beast, submerging the two of them in an instant, like a world rushing towards them.The two stood there quietly, and finally settled down after a while.

Inside the stone gate is a cold stone room.The ice room is as bright as day.

It is three feet high and twenty feet in radius. There is only one stone platform in the center, which looks very empty.The cold fog in the ice room is dense, floating and curling. The only stone platform is like being between the sky and the clouds. The undulating fog clouds make it so misty and blurry, only a touch of green water can be seen.

A touch of green life!

In this vast ice room like a wasteland, this touch of green, the tender shoots in the cold winter, is the only color in the world!

The two walked into the ice room and walked slowly towards the central stone platform.The fog was dispersed by the footsteps, and then closed after walking, like walking among the clouds.The footsteps of the two broke the silence of the ice room for many years.

With a calm face, Yan Hui approached the stone platform, took a deep breath, waved his sleeves, the cold mist receded one after another, and the green water on the stone platform came into view!

It was a girl in a water green dress!Frozen girl!

A girl who is all over the country!

His face was as peaceful as if he was asleep, lying flat on the stone platform.

But the most surprising thing is that this overpowering face is almost exactly the same as Yan Xiaoan!

She had frost on her eyelashes, her face was paler than paper, but she still had a faint smile on her face, as if she was still having a sweet dream and didn't want to wake up.He folded his hands in front of his chest, and there was a bell between them.

Yan Hui looked at the girl silently, his eyes seemed gentle, downcast, and regretful, she was right in front of him, and he seemed to be looking at her from afar.

The air has always been cold, and people's hearts have been depressed.

There seemed to be a flash of light in the eyes of the great wizard who had been silent all this time. He looked at the girl, then looked deeply at Yan Hui, and said calmly, "How many years has she been lying here? It's been more than ten years since the last time I saw her. Now they look more and more alike."

"Yeah," Yan Hui came back to his senses with a faint smile, and suddenly seemed to remember something comforting. "It's been more than ten years, and Xiaoan is 11 years old this year."

His gaze lingered on the girl again, then he retracted his gaze, took out a white jade bottle from his bosom, the texture was as thin as suet, and the precious light overflowed, and he handed it to the great wizard, saying, "Unfortunately, time doesn't wait, we have to change the plan."

The great wizard took the jade bottle and nodded, "I just hope everything goes as I wish."

Yan Hui smiled lightly, "Sooner or later..."

Reaching out to the girl's chest, he fetched the little golden bell. When the golden bell rang, a pleasant and clear ringing sounded, echoing endlessly in the empty ice room for a long time. It should also wave along with it.

Yan Hui couldn't help looking at the bell twice, and said, "This acacia bell is the most precious treasure of my holy religion. Back then, it was able to forcefully detain a soul from the souls that escaped from the infatuation curse, alas." Grief and pity, "That's why the deputy suzerain of my sect traveled thousands of miles to the southern border to find the soul. The love of the whole life! Hehe..." Yan Hui paused, and suddenly said loudly: "What do people say about immortals? Who has seen them? ? How crazy? Really ridiculous, ridiculous, haha, haha."

The laughter stopped abruptly, Yan Hui didn't speak again, and after a while, the atmosphere seemed to be depressed again.

The great sorcerer looked at Yan Hui, with a look of grief on his face, took a deep breath, and said lightly: "Those are all things that happened to my family teacher back then."

Yan Hui smiled miserably, and said: "When the great wizard was dying to cast spells, even though I wasn't there, I still yearned and admired him."

The great wizard smiled, but his eyes were full of bitterness, and said, "Although the Hehuan Bell is a treasure, it is not a place where the soul lives for a long time. What's more, she has been so immortal for a hundred years, and her soul is also damaged."

Yan Hui sighed: "Oh, I can only let her live in this jade bottle for a while to raise her soul. Until the future..."

Yan Hui's voice faded away, and he looked at the great wizard, "Let's start moving the soul!"

The great wizard nodded, unwilling to say any more, and began to cast spells!

The golden bells flickered, one, two...like smoke and mist.

Yan Xiaoan's room

It's still night, and a beam of pale moonlight slantly shines on the ground

Yan Xiaoan was struggling in a daze, the corners of her eyes trembled, and with a sound of "□", she slowly opened her eyes, seeing a hazy world.

Almost the same face, the same innocence, the same deep sleep, the moonlight is hazy, and the mist is layered. In a trance, one can't help but think that the girl in the ice room suddenly woke up.

The curtains fluttered, and the night breeze came.

The fog cleared, and the eyes were clear again. After all, there are two worlds, two people!

Yan Xiaoan was lying on the bed, looking around, the tall bookshelf was filled with all kinds of books, a small desk, the arrangement on it was the same as in his memory, a pen, a notebook, here was exactly what he wanted s room.

He woke up once on the way back to Qilidong, and saw his uncle's face was pale, with a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, but he knew that his uncle had won, he was saved, and he fell asleep with peace of mind. Lie comfortably in your own home.

Uncle defeated the mysterious Taoist who seemed to be called "Cangsong".It's just that "Cangsong" seems to have profound Taoism, and my uncle has taken a lot of responsibility, and I don't know what is going on with him now.

The nose fluttered.

Thinking of this, Yan Xiaoan became anxious, and hurriedly wanted to sit up, but unexpectedly, his body was extremely weak, and before struggling for a while, he lay back down again, gasping for breath, and found that breathing was also quite laborious. .

Only then did he think of his own body, and after checking, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his chill had receded, and there was no sign of snake venom.He couldn't help but smile with joy, but he didn't know how long he had been lying down.

Then I turned my head and looked out through the wooden window, following the moonlight, and saw that the moon had already passed the mid-heaven, and the sun was about to rise soon.

Yan Xiaoan thought, "Uncle is much better than me. I was brought back by uncle. I can be safe and sound. Of course, uncle is fine. He should be sleeping in the room now."At the moment, my heart was settled, I closed my eyes, and silently waited for the dawn.

But not long after, Yan Xiaoan couldn't lie down anymore, she was fine when she was in a coma, but it was different when she woke up.

There was a resounding cooing sound, which seemed particularly abrupt in this dawning night.Yan Xiaoan opened his eyes and licked his lips, really thirsty and hungry.Especially in addition to the familiar smell in the air, there seems to be a faint and strange fragrance in the air, like the unique fragrance of a woman.Yan Xiaoan's five senses are very keen, usually in her room, she can smell that the dishes in the kitchen are not cooked, and then she runs to eat them, she is very punctual and never late.

Maybe he can't smell the faint fragrance usually, but now that he is hungry and some functions are strengthened, this fragrance is hard to escape, but it makes him feel even more unbearable to endure hunger.

No wonder, he has been lying on the bed for six or seven days. Although Yan Hui took some pills during the period, which can replenish hunger and energy, most of the medicinal power was used to treat snake venom and resist the cold. Now Yan Hui has something to do. No, I haven't had time to feed the next meal of medicine, so I'm naturally thirsty and hungry now.

Yan Xiaoan lay on the bed for a long time, and finally regained some strength, took a deep breath and got all the strength to climb out of bed, picked up the water bottle from the table, and drank directly to his mouth, instead of using a cup, because it would take more energy.The kettle looks ordinary, but it is also a magic weapon. It can keep the temperature of the water. It is still warm in the second half of the night. In fact, Yan Xiaoan has used it for a long time, and it can keep warm for three days.But Yan Xiaoan was not relieved to be able to drink warm water, but there was only half a pot of water in the pot, and it was very light to hold, so he felt lucky for this.

Yan Xiaoan drank it all in one gulp, the water flowed into his stomach, and he felt clear to quench his thirst.But... There was a cooing sound, but it was even hungrier.

Yan Xiaoan felt bad, and after drinking some water, he finally regained some strength, so he decided to go to the kitchen to get something to eat.

Holding on to the table, he stood up, shook for a while, and almost sat back down again.After standing still, take a step forward, swaying three times, looking like a reed in the wind.

It may be due to the desire to eat, but even so, Yan Xiaoan turned the kitchen upside down, but got a very desperate result: there is not a single dish!No raw rice either!The bowls are all clean!I still remember the last meal I ate before I left. I was in a hurry. There were still three grains of rice in the bowl!

Yan Xiaoan couldn't help but feel dejected, the custom of the five clans to wash dishes before meals is really a crystallization of wisdom!I heard that in the early days of the Five Clans, that is, a few decades ago, life was very difficult. Not only did they have to be on guard against the monsters that might rush out at any time from the four fields, but they couldn't even eat a meal, and they often went hungry.Occasionally, when I heard some elders talking about this, they would sigh and thank the great wizard.Young children like Xiao An and Zhuang Zhuang were skeptical about these things, and they only realized a little today.

Yan Xiaoan thought about where to find something to eat. After thinking about it for a long time, she suddenly remembered that there was a silk bellyband in her room when she was a child. That thing can be eaten at critical moments, but after thinking about it again, she felt a little like drinking poison to quench thirst. , I could only shake my head in my heart, and after a while, I made up my mind again, I can't just starve to death like this!Go and wake up uncle!

Yan Xiaoan dragged his weak body again, wiped the sweat off his brow, and exited the kitchen.

After a while, he stood in front of his uncle's room, knocked lightly on the old wooden door, and said faintly, "Uncle!"

There is no response inside!

Yan Xiaoan frowned.Knocked again, still no response.

Yan Xiaoan pushed hard, and there was a crashing sound, and the door was locked from the inside!

Yan Xiaoan was startled, and then his heart suddenly shook.It stands to reason that with my uncle's cultivation, I'm afraid I should have discovered it just after waking up. Even if I didn't, I must have noticed it when I went through the kitchen. It's locked!What's up with him?

Yan Xiaoan's heart was on fire immediately, no matter how hard he thought of anything else, what happened to his uncle?Are you not in the house?still...?

Yan Xiaoan roared and slammed the door violently with a force gushing out of his body.The wooden door was already a bit worn out, but it was no longer overwhelmed, and it fell straight into the house with a creak.

Yan Xiaoan, who lost his strength, also fell into the house together with the door.

※※※

ice room

There is no sun and moon in the room, and it is difficult to feel the passage of time.

The soul transfer has already been completed.The great wizard has already retreated near the door of the stone room, waiting for Yan to return.

Yan Hui quietly placed the jade bottle beside her, and gently put the Hehuanling into her arms.

Then she silently watched the sleeping girl on the stone platform, her eyes were deep and distant, she was thinking about something, there seemed to be pity, there seemed to be reluctance, there seemed to be a trace of helplessness and sadness.

Just like this, I don't know how long Yan Hui stared at it, it seems that he really forgot the passage of time.

Yan Hui finally turned around suddenly, her hair danced with the whirling, the cold mist retreated, and walked towards the great wizard resolutely.

The great wizard looked at Yan Hui silently, but did not move his feet until Yan Hui brushed shoulders with him and walked to the stone door of the ice room.

The great wizard stared at Yan Hui's back, and said slowly, "Is it really worth it for you to do this?" The voice was soft, but it hit the heart like a heavy hammer.

Yan Hui was silent for a moment, then turned around and smiled, looking very free and easy, and said, "Brother, what is the purpose of a person's life?"

Yan Hui patted the great wizard on the shoulder, signaling to move on. "I have practiced the Tao all my life. At this age, I have experienced so much before I gradually understand the Tao, and the direction of the heart is the Tao!" Yan Hui's words were sonorous,

He smiled faintly again: "I not only want Baguio to wake up, but also want Xiao An to live safely."

The great wizard trembled in his heart, and silently followed the steps.I only heard Yan Hui continue to say, "Whether it's worth it or not, what is it?"

The great wizard kept silent for a long time with radiant eyes, then smiled meaningfully and walked out of the ice room.

A rumbling sound sounded again, still low and heavy.The door of the ice room began to close slowly.

After the two left, the girl was left alone on the stone platform, falling into almost eternal loneliness.I don't know how many years it will take to open this heavy stone gate again, and I don't know if it will be opened again.

The great wizard looked at Yan Hui's back

Perhaps the frozen Baguio retained the happiness at that moment, with a smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.But those who loved her, the people she loved, grieved for it all their lives.

Is this the fault of man, or the condemnation of heaven?

The great wizard couldn't help but let out a long sigh in his heart.

The rumble fades away.The door of the ice room was finally completely closed.The last ray of struggling white light also disappeared.The cold air gradually gathered up, like clouds and mist.

The footsteps of the two have faded away.

※※※

Yan Xiaoan woke up again in a daze lying on the door panel, opened his eyes, and found that it was still night, it seemed that he didn't faint for a long time, but fell unconscious for a short time.

Then he quickly raised his head and looked into the room, heaving a sigh of relief, sure enough, his uncle was not in the room.

Then I stood up from the door panel, moved my body slightly, and found that there was nothing wrong with my body, just a little... more hungry

Rubbing his stomach, he couldn't help thinking: "Where did uncle go? How could he lock the door?" But then he was relieved, "It doesn't seem to matter, anyway, it's not just bedridden, maybe it's back to that ghost king's house." .It's about this meal...what should I do?"

Aside from the initial surprise, Yan Xiaoan didn't pay much attention to the fact that his uncle was the Qinglong envoy of the Ghost King Zong by accident.Not to mention that my uncle is a person in the way of the devil, and the devil is the devil. I heard from my uncle that the righteous devil and the aristocratic family are inseparable from good and evil.

Uncle also said that only people can distinguish between good and evil in the world, while organizations can't distinguish between good and evil.It seems that he also said some great truths, and the words he said were sincere, but his brain is too small to remember so much now.Anyway, the battle between righteousness and evil, and the general trend of the world, seem to be far away from him.

It's just that the ghost king's sect where my uncle belongs to doesn't seem to have a good reputation. It once used a large number of civilians to attack Qingyunmen.But that was many years ago.

I shook my head again in my heart, these are unreliable, after all, this meal is the most important thing!

Yan Xiaoan glanced across the room, and suddenly found that the painting on the front wall had been taken down and placed on the bed.Yan Xiaoan couldn't help scratching her head, feeling very strange.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and slapped his head. "Uncle will give me snacks occasionally, so there must be snacks in his room." Yan Xiaoan was so happy that he almost couldn't laugh out loud.

Swallowing his saliva, even if Dang turned over, there were actually not many places to turn, but he didn't even let go of the deepest part of the bed.But in the end, it made him feel like a concubine, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky. This place was cleaner than his own face!By the way, I glanced at the small statue without interest, and it was indeed the same as the broken statue in the ruins of Shiwan Dashan.

Yan Xiaoan was really exhausted, and he didn't know where to go with the energy he mustered up just now.He said in his heart: "Uncle is right, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment." Walking to the bed, pushing the scroll to the floor, he sat down on the bed.

I was almost desperate. "Why not... I must have been away for too long, and my uncle was not prepared recently." I couldn't help but feel very unlucky.

Without even raising her eyelids, Yan Xiaoan picked up a small medicine bottle by the bed and uncorked it.

Immediately, a strong fragrance overflowed in large quantities.Yan Xiaoan's eyes widened instantly, and the saliva immediately flowed out.Immediately turned the bottle upside down, and four emerald green pills fell directly on the bed.At this time, the aroma is more intense and lingering.Yan Xiaoan's saliva swallowed again and again, almost unable to swallow anymore.

Yan Xiaoan picked up one without hesitation and was about to put it in his mouth, but he stopped abruptly when he was about to touch his tongue as soon as he reached his mouth. "No, this medicine belongs to my uncle. It should be used for healing. I can't take it!"

He resisted and quietly put the pills on the bed, staring straight at the four small pills, but his nose was still moving uncontrollably.I kept comforting myself in my heart, "Just wait. Uncle will probably come back by dawn, and he will have something to eat. Even if he doesn't come back at dawn, he can go to other people's house to have a meal. Don't take uncle's elixir. "

Yan Xiaoan licked her lips, swallowing hard under the temptation of the fragrance, feeling a battle between heaven and man in her heart.Then I thought about it again, "No, it's so embarrassing to go to other people's house for dinner! It's better not to go, huh. But, what if uncle doesn't come back at dawn? Then what should we do?"

Yan Xiaoan finally couldn't resist the temptation of the delicious pills, nodded, and made an agreement with himself, only take one, and leave three for uncle!

Yan Xiaoan picked up the pill again, feeling quite heavy, with a strange feeling of stealing something.I can't help but think of what my uncle said, "Buddhism says there are three poisons in the world: 'greed, anger, and ignorance.'"

This hunger should be regarded as "greedy". At this moment, he also has a deep understanding of these somewhat ethereal things.

The elixir entered the mouth, and immediately turned into a clear stream, following the trend, the feeling of hunger disappeared immediately.Yan Xiaoan was taken aback, his heart was indeed a good pill, he immediately sat cross-legged, the clear stream flowed into his limbs, he adjusted his breathing, and continued to cycle around the sky.
