010 Night Road
The sunset and the moon rises... The sky quickly became dark and meticulously, with starlight flashing dreamily, but the Monkey King Mountain did not quiet down. I don’t know what kind of birds, beasts and insects were roaring desperately after eating them. Zhang Zhifeng was very upset.
Zhang Zhifeng is now following his master and walking on the mountain path.
I had already asked where I went, but the old man said nothing, and my senior brother was also unexpectedly silent.
The three of them walked silently, Chen Yun held a white stone in his hand, which was radiant white light. Although it was not strong, it could barely illuminate the dark road under his feet. Zhang Zhifeng moved forward carefully, kicking stones on the road from time to time, causing his bare feet to hurt.
"Why is my magical medicine for body refining only on my arms, my eyes can't see clearly, and my body is not strong enough?" Zhang Zhifeng complained in his heart. The master and senior brother are all very skilled, but he suffers a lot. He feels that he is much behind and is busy and quick to follow.
...
"Here." The old man's voice looked hoarse in the night wind.
Zhang Zhifeng looked up and lit up the surroundings with the light scattered by the white stone in his senior brother's hand. The dark cave entrance in front of him was like the mouth of a ferocious beast, which was pitch black and gloomy and terrifying, making people shudder. The night behind him was pitch black and there was nothing clearly. The light scattered by the white stone shone on the rock at the entrance of the cave with a faint moonlight, revealing a bit of strangeness, giving Zhang Zhifeng a very strange feeling.
After looking at the cave carefully, although the light was not strong, Zhang Zhifeng could still feel familiarity. He opened his mouth and asked uncertainly: "Isn't this the place where I fainted? This cave!"
"It's here, we saved you here! Follow the master and don't ask more questions." Senior brother Chen Yun answered beside him.
"There must be his reason for bringing me here. Let's take a look." Zhang Zhifeng thought in his heart, and did not ask any more questions, and followed in carefully.
Zhang Zhifeng still remembers that before he was unconscious in this cave last time, he came in to hide from the rain, but because of fear, he did not dare to go deeper and stayed about one meter away from the entrance of the cave. But it was daytime, and the depth of more than one meter away from the entrance of the cave was not too dark. Now it felt completely different. The light scattered by the white stones could not shine on the cave wall, as if the light that shot around was swallowed up by the cave wall. Zhang Zhifeng almost couldn't tell whether it was in the cave or in the empty night. Only the faint white light shone, the master brother who could see clearly near him gave him a sense of security.
As time goes by, the road is getting bumpy, Zhang Zhifeng's eyes lit up. He feels very soft when he steps on the ground barefoot, as if he is stepping on cotton, and he is not as hiding as on the land.
Zhang Zhifeng could no longer tell whether the direction was going down or extending forward. He just walked mechanically step by step, not feeling uncomfortable, not anxious, but he was a little curious.
A little light appeared in a hazy way in front of him. Zhang Zhifeng cheered up and stared at him with all his eyes. As the three of them approached, the light gradually became clear. It was a white halo. What was strange was that other places around the halo were still as dark as void.
"Be careful and follow me!" The old man reminded Zhang Zhifeng with concern.
The halo was not too far away, and it was right in front of you in a blink of an eye. Zhang Zhifeng stared at it for a few glances, but the halo that was close to him was always unable to see clearly. It seemed to be separated by thick fog, and it seemed that the halo was actually very far away. This feeling made Zhang Zhifeng very awkward and uncomfortable.
But I saw the master walking straight into the halo and disappearing. The floating halo was like a door, as if there was another world behind the door!
"It's okay, go in!" Chen Yun shook his junior brother's hand, "When I came here before, the master threw me outside. It took me a long time to dare to go in!"
Giving Zhang Zhifeng an encouraging look, Chen Yun let go of Zhang Zhifeng's hand and walked in first.
Zhang Zhifeng stared at the light gate in front of him, feeling a little glad that he had a senior brother, so he calmed down and stepped into the halo.
A strong light flashed in front of him, and Zhang Zhifeng couldn't help but close his eyes. He didn't feel anything, but the dazzling light still shining through his eyelids made him know that he was in a completely different place.
After barely opening his eyes, Zhang Zhifeng narrowed his eyes and looked around. The master was right in front of him, but he could no longer see anything else. There was bright light and dazzling light around him. The feeling of being down-to-earth under his feet was very clear, but he couldn't see the ground. All he could see was the full light. This was a world of light, so what was before entering the light gate? The dark world? Looking back, he did not see the halo when entering.
"Where is this?" Zhang Zhifeng couldn't help but ask in surprise.
The Master of Medicine said calmly: "Don't rush to ask first, let's go, and then talk slowly when I'm here!"
Zhang Zhifeng had no choice but to hold back the surprise in his heart and followed.
In this world of light, Zhang Zhifeng could not tell the direction, but he was sure that this was no longer in the Monkey King Mountain. Because after walking for so long, he had walked through the deepest cave. Moreover, Monkey King Mountain was not big, so it was impossible to have such a deep cave.
In the "World of Light", Zhang Zhifeng followed the old man step by step with a sense of awe, with a master in front and a senior brother in the back, and his face was very calm.
It seems that the distance in the world of light is much shorter, or maybe time always passes too quickly. In the midst of a daze, the three of them have reached the end.
As his eyes turned dark, Zhang Zhifeng blinked and adapted to the changes in light and darkness. Then he realized that he was no longer in that world full of light. He was now in a stone chamber with his master and senior brother. Various patterns were carved on the four walls of the stone chamber. Zhang Zhifeng recognized several of them as the legendary totems and divine beast patterns in this world, but most of the patterns were unknown.
There is a stone table in the middle of the stone room. A white stone on the table is illuminating the entire stone room. It is the same as the stone that the senior brother is holding the road, but it is much larger and much brighter. There is also a large bookshelf in the stone room full of books.
The old man walked to the stone table and pulled open the wooden chair in front of the table and sat on it. "If you want to ask, ask what you want."
Zhang Zhifeng was surprised along the way, and now there are a lot of problems and I don’t know where to start.
After sorting out his thoughts, Zhang Zhifeng calmed down and slowly asked the first question: "Where is this?"
The old man seemed to recall something, his eyes were blurred: "Many sects or individual strong people have their own mansions, and this is the mansion of our Medical Saint lineage!"
"What are the darkness and light on the way I came just now? This road is not from Monkey King Mountain, right?"
Zhang Zhifeng glanced out of the corner of his eyes and happened to see his senior brother's strange behavior.
Chen Yun walked to the corner of the wall alone, his fingers slashed along several carved lines on the wall, and a trace of purple and golden light penetrated into the wall from his fingers. In a silent breath, a small door was opened in the corner of the wall. Chen Yun walked into it, and the small door disappeared, and the wall returned to its original state.
The old man glanced at the place where Chen Yun went in, and then slowly answered Zhang Zhifeng's question.
"It's the way here, and the light and darkness are the cover for this road."
Zhang Zhifeng was full of doubts and asked again: "Why did you bring me here at night? Who built that road? Why did you bring me here for?"
The old man still said slowly: "This road can only be passed through at a special time every night, and at other times, you can only go to an ordinary cave. I will bring you here to study medicine. We are usually here, and it is not safe in Monkey King Mountain!"
Zhang Zhifeng didn't pay much attention to the old man's insecurity in the Monkey King Mountain. He asked the question just now: "Who built that road?"
"Who built it? It doesn't matter!" The old man stopped talking. He stood up and signaled Zhang Zhifeng to the corner of the wall. He stretched out his index finger with his left hand and drew the place where Chen Yun had just passed. A trace of light blue light shone in. It was the color of the old man's practice. And purple gold was the color of Chen Yun's practice.
The stone door opened again in silence! Zhang Zhifeng also had such a secret room at his home, but he was still surprised by the stone door because there would be a clear sound when the stone door in the family opened, and the stone door seemed to have been born out of thin air. It disappeared without a trace, and it was silent when it appeared!
"Get in!" the old man said softly, as if a louder voice would startle someone.
Chapter completed!
