23: Escape(1/2)
"Is this true?" He Fang hesitated to go in and asked Lou Jinchen.
Lou Jinchen looked up at the sky. The sun was blazing and he felt very hot. As for the question of where, he was sure because the eyes of these people made him feel the reality.
For him with a keen sense of spirituality, these gazes seemed to have weight, and he could clearly feel them when they fell on him.
Lou Jinchen heard one of them say: "How come they suddenly appeared without seeing them approaching?"
"Yes, maybe some kind of hiding spell was used." Someone said.
As Lou Jinchen approached, they stopped talking and someone called He Fang's name.
He Fang's face turned red from suppressing his emotions. He didn't know if he could respond. In his home school, in a strange place, he must not respond when his name is called by an unknown person.
He didn't know if these people were still familiar with his colleagues.
When Lou Jinchen saw this scene, he didn't say anything. Just now, He Fang had the intention to retreat for the first time, which made Lou Jinchen unhappy.
He walked towards Capt. Deng, and Capt. Deng also saw him. Lou Jinchen felt that he might not know about his disappearance just now.
Immediately, I told him what had just happened.
There were several people around Mr. Deng, who were all monks in Swimming City. After hearing this, their faces showed signs of surprise. They didn't quite believe Lou Jinchen's words because they didn't feel anything at all.
"When I came here, I didn't feel any discomfort, nor did I see anything strange." A middle-aged monk next to him said.
Lou Jinchen looked at the other people again and found that they didn't believe it either. Lou Jinchen stopped saying anything, while Capt. Deng frowned. It wasn't that he didn't believe it, but he felt that this time he might really encounter someone.
Got caught in the 'Uncanny Plague'.
If this is the case, then you and others may have been infected.
"Then what's the reason why we can't see it?" Deng Captou asked.
Lou Jinchen shook his head, thinking about it in his heart.
After all, in his opinion, there are too many things that are invisible to the naked eye. The simplest way is to cover yourself with something, so that others cannot see you. This is hiding. Of course, others can guess that there is someone under the cover and lift it.
Open the lid.
Another way is to clearly see it, but not know that you have seen it. This is ignoring and hiding.
Lou Jinchen thought of the book he got from the visitor. One of the records of "Travel Notes and Hearings" said: "I met a man practicing Dharma by chance. He picked bird feathers and made them into clothes. He wore them in the mountains and forests, and was used by hunters and hunters.
The herb gatherers appeared and glided among the treetops and valleys. I asked why this was happening. I only wanted them to pass it on by word of mouth. There were big birds in this mountain that looked like humans. The birds could fly in the sky, so I
Able to truly fly in the sky.”
"I have never seen such a magic method, so I asked about the method he practiced. He didn't say anything at first, but later he said that he would like to spread his praises. Then he said that the method he practiced was a method of magical transformation, which was a combination of the two schools of secret food and sacrifice to gods.
Created.”
When Lou Jinchen thought of this, he also wondered if there might be people practicing some kind of magic here, because there was a comment from the author in the book "Travel Notes", saying: "I know the method obtained by the God Sacrifice Sect, so I
Like a flower in a mirror and a moon in the water, it needs to be cultivated and cultivated in the human world, but it has been achieved. I don’t know where the method originated from, and I don’t know where the skill came from.”
Xujiakeng was originally a village dedicated to gods, and Xu Xin from Matoupo was there, so Lou Jinchen wondered if it was Xu Xin who was practicing.
"If so, then I broke her law, and am I starting to enmity again?" Lou Jinchen looked around at the green hills surrounding him, and he couldn't be sure if anyone was peeping somewhere.
Everyone did not believe that they had disappeared. They only said that even if there was something, it was Lou Jinchen who planted the illusion. Lou Jinchen did not argue anything. After all, this matter was not very clear. Even he himself did not understand it very well.
Several people quickly decided to enter the Xukeng Village to determine as soon as possible whether there had been any gods descending on the village, and if so, whether there was a 'weird god plague'. As long as it was confirmed, everyone could call it a day and go back.
We are prepared to spend the night here, but everyone is willing to go back as soon as possible.
The village is not big, with rows of rows, but the houses are high and short, new and old. It is not as beautiful as Dujiazhuang, and it can be seen that it is not that wealthy, because some of the walls of the houses here are made of earth, and some are not.
It is a wooden house with a small amount of masonry.
This is a poor village.
Lou Jinchen felt this way when he looked at the fields outside the village. The crops in the fields did not look lush and did not grow well. It seemed that the people here had no intention of farming.
Among the people traveling with him, besides Deng Baotou and Lou Jinchen, there were three other people. Among the three people, Lou Jinchen didn’t know their spiritual sects. What’s more, he felt that the spiritual sects in this world could actually interact with each other.
As long as you can control it, you can graft and fuse it at will.
Among them, the person who was most suspicious of what Lou Jinchen said was holding a yellow talisman in his hand, with a sun-like talisman drawn in cinnabar on the yellow talisman.
When he held the talisman in his hand, the brilliance on the talisman actually reflected the light of the sun, almost indistinguishable from each other. Lou Jinchen called him a talisman master.
There was another one, an old man, silent and taciturn. He was wearing a thick black robe, and his body was exuding cold air under the sun. Every time Lou Jinchen looked at him, he had a vague and irritating look in his eyes.
It feels like he knows that this is the condensation of the other party's thoughts, just like when Shang Gui'an and Deng Ding channeled themselves that day, their souls were almost injured by their own magic sword intent. This one is close to the building.
Chen couldn't tell what he was cultivating at all.
The third person only wore a vest-like clothes, with two well-defined muscles exposed, and his muscles were like iron. Lou Jinchen could tell that this was a boxing master, and he called him a boxer.
As soon as the five people entered the Xukeng Village, they saw weird eyes painted everywhere.
Eyes are painted on the walls, doors, tables, stoves, bedsides, and roof beams.
Those eyes may be big or small, or gloomy, or intense, or happy, or sad and sad. Some eyes are horizontal, some are vertical, and some are slanted. The colors of the eyeballs are different. Here
Rarely have pairs of eyes.
"Nephew Jinchen, I heard that there are also visions of eyes possessing people in Ma Tou Po. Is it the same as here?" Deng Captou asked after seeing so many eyes.
"Same." Lou Jinchen answered affirmatively. He already had a guess.
Xu Xin, who was born in Xufang Village, entered Matoupo with Du Desheng. I don't know whether there was a sacrifice or some other method, which made the god who had always been believed in Xujiakeng come and occupy Matoupo.
The statue of the Earth Temple was suppressed, so the statue was covered with pimples, and inside the pimples were eyes.
And in that sacrifice, this Xu Xin obtained the magic of the 'eye' god, and if the magic obtained from the 'god' is to be truly used in the human world, it needs to be cultivated, just like
It is a magic seed replanted in the human world.
There is also an ancestral hall in Xukeng Village, but this ancestral hall does not enshrine the ancestors' spiritual tablets, but instead enshrines a huge white wood with various shouting eyes carved with paint on the wood.
There is a patio in the ancestral hall, and there is water in the patio. The sunlight from the sky shines into the water, and you can see the clear bottom and a long stone with eyes carved on it.
Except for the courtyard, which is bright and clear due to the rays of the sun, the entire ancestral hall looks dark due to the light. There are actually some overlapping shadows, making it difficult to see the real meaning.
Especially when Lou Jinchen came in, he felt that the entire ancestral hall was filled with an indescribable Buddhist charm.
He followed behind and watched everyone disperse, looking around in the ancestral hall where one could see both front and back. He stood on the patio and looked at the sky. The light shone on him, and he felt that the temperature of the sun was even higher.
Not so hot anymore.
Looking at the other people again, his heart shrank suddenly. He found that the other people's figures were disappearing in the shadows. Their bodies seemed to be covered by shadows, and their words to each other were also blocked by the shadows. He counted them all
, and found that someone was missing.
Captain Deng was standing not far away. His figure was in the shadows and became darker. It was like a table that had been left there for a long time and was slowly covered with a layer of dust.
, Deng Captou himself seemed to have no feeling at all.
Lou Jinchen did not move rashly. When he looked at the people in other places, the people who had not completely disappeared had disappeared.
"Do all the people in the village disappear like this?" Lou Jinchen just doubted this. He didn't know if the people who disappeared in this ancestral hall would die.
Suddenly, he felt alert deep in his heart. It was an extremely weak sense of danger, like a wisp of breeze blowing across the water of the autumn pool, causing a ripple. It was this ripple that made Lou Jinchen feel the danger.
Suddenly I thought: "Am I also disappearing in the eyes of others?"
He found that he seemed to be integrated with this piece of light, seemed to be disintegrated into this piece of light, and wanted to become a part of this piece of light. His thoughts seemed to drift away, just like the arrogant energy during the night of Qi refining.
He felt like he wanted to fly away, and he felt that his whole consciousness was going to fly up to the sky along with this light.
This desire is so strong and natural.
He immediately tightened his thoughts and visualized the sun burning in his body. The sun fell into the sea of qi. The sea of qi boiled instantly, turned into a fire dragon, got out of the sea of qi, and began to swim in the meridians.
Wherever he went, the rays of the sun he visualized followed him, looking for the disharmony in his body that was being burned, looking for traces of intrusion.
He didn't find it, but as the fire dragon traveled around for a week, the moment after entering the sea of consciousness, he felt the real breath of the sun again, and the feeling of yin and yang came back, so the fire dragon transformed by the true energy returned to the sea of consciousness.
When he entered the sea of air, his entire body clearly appeared in the sunlight. The moment he opened his eyes, the brilliance of the sun surged into his eyes.
With his eyes as the center, the void burned, like a black paper burning a hole in the middle, spreading in all directions.
The darkness in the ancestral hall suddenly seemed to have been burned away, but the figures of those people were still missing. Lou Jinchen reached out and grabbed the sun again, his consciousness condensed in his palm, and he imagined that the sun was caught in the palm of his hand.
of throwing.
The moment he opened his hand and waved it, a ball of blazing white light shone out.
Holding the sun in his hand, he opened his palms and the sun naturally shined out. This natural thought made his thoughts fly, as if they turned into rays of light, penetrating the shadows and darkness, and the entire ancestral hall was filled with the smell of being burned by the sun.
, there was a strange fragrance, and the whole ancestral hall became bright.
Those few people seemed to be waking up from a dream, like fish that were frightened in the water. After being alerted to the danger, they were all weak and fell to the ground in an instant. On the contrary, Deng Shaotou was better. A jade plaque around his neck radiated.
light.
Lou Jinchen did not move, still standing there. This time, his eyes were looking at the water in the well.
The water in the patio is not deep, it is shallow and forms a rectangle, with eyes carved all over the bottom. The sunlight shines in, making the water look clear and making the eyes seem to be glowing.
Lou Jinchen suddenly pulled out his sword and pointed towards the void where the patio was. A bright ray of sunlight quickly condensed on the tip of the sword.
Without saying a word, he swung the sword in his hand towards the patio.
