Baishixian Road

Chapter 3 A Booklet

(six)

The gentle breeze was mixed with the fragrance of vegetation in the jungle, wrapped in the last ray of warmth blown from the setting sun, like a girl's gentle little hand, patting Xu Mo's face one after another.

After opening his eyes this time, Xu Mo lay on the ground in a daze for a full minute.

"Did I encounter a ghost?"

The thing in the mountain temple is absolutely impossible to be a living person.

He was strangled.

The mummy's hand was icy cold, and the moment it pinched his neck, all the blood vessels in his body seemed to be frozen, and he couldn't move at all. He could only watch helplessly as the mummy twisted his neck.

The tragic degree of this method of death is worse than being eaten by a tiger.

Xu Mo couldn't understand, how could there be ghosts in this world?
There are too many unknown things here, the huge tiger, the mummy in the mountain temple... These are completely beyond Xu Mo's imagination.

Too dangerous.

The haunted mountain temple is definitely not to be visited again.

"To the west of the Bajiao Pavilion is Shilipo with fierce tigers, to the east are cliffs, and to the north there are ghosts in the mountain temple, so we can only go south."

Xu Mo got up and headed south.

He was not slow, because Xu Mo knew very well that the tiger must have spotted him.

It's just that I didn't find anything until I was caught by a tiger this time, or because the time was too short and the walking distance was limited. May escape the pursuit of tigers.

<seven>
In the gentle breeze, Xu Mo opened his eyes again.

This time he didn't even bother to get up.

The last time I was gutted by a tiger, the pain was so painful that it took me a long time to die.

"I have to think of a way. If I really can't run away, I have to kill myself. At least I can give myself a good time."

Xu Mo is completely helpless now.

Run, can't run.

beat?
Tiger or ghost, which one can he provoke?

Counting with my fingers, in the past six cycles, I was eaten by a tiger four times, strangled to death by a ghost once, and fell to my death once on a cliff.

Thinking about it carefully, the biggest trouble is actually the huge tiger.

Because if you don’t take the path of the cliff, you won’t fall; if you don’t go to the mountain temple, you won’t be attacked by ghosts.

But tiger, no matter what you do, it will persevere in chasing and killing you.

There is only one exception.

The tiger did not enter the mountain temple that time.

Is it because of ghosts?

At this time Xu Mo suddenly sat up from the ground.

"Then can I use the tiger's fear of ghosts to find a chance of survival?"

Because at present, the east is a dead end, and the four sides and the south will be hunted down by tigers. Only by going north and entering the mountain temple can we avoid tigers.

If we can find a way to get rid of the ghost in the mountain temple in advance, wouldn't this chess come alive?
Xu Mo was a little excited.

Time was running out, and he didn't have much time to think in situ.

It's even worse when it's dark.

Go to the mountain temple first.

Think about it on the way.

Xu Mo is familiar with the road this time. After all, he has walked the same road twice.

When he ran all the way up to the mountain temple, the sky was still bright, and the sun was still a third below the hill.

Xu Mo recalled it carefully when he was on the road.

The ghost I saw in the mountain temple before, that is, the mummy, was not able to move from the beginning.

It was the sun setting, and the weird things happened after dark.

This shows that as long as the sky is still bright, the mummy cannot move.

This is opportunity.

Xu Mo had a bold idea, that is to 'invite' that mummy out before the sun goes down.

Let the setting sun bask in the sun, maybe this mummy will not be able to transform into a dead body.

Or just bury it, but it may not be too late to dig a hole.

No matter how bad it is, you can move farther.

Xu Mo is really helpless now, so he can only fumble.

This time he entered the mountain temple, and he went straight to the mummy.

At this time, the mummy was really motionless.

Xu Mo dared to touch it, and then he picked up the mummy with a heartbroken heart.

Don't say it, it's pretty heavy.

Holding a dead body doesn't feel good at all.

It feels like a large piece of wood carving.

As Xu Mo walked out, he murmured, "Boss, I have no choice but to invite you out first, otherwise you will have to strangle me when it gets dark."

Panting and running 200 meters away, Xu Mo found a flat stone, placed the mummy, and then bowed seriously. Suddenly, he heard the roar of a tiger in the distance, and then he fled back to the mountain temple .

It was starting to get dark by now.

Xu Mo thought about continuing to run away, but he still said that in the mountains and forests, he would never be able to escape the tiger's pursuit.

Staying in the mountain temple may have a chance of survival.

At this moment, Xu Mo looked at the place where the mummy was sitting before, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

Over there, there is a booklet.

New discovery.

Xu Mo immediately went over to check. The book should have been pressed under the mummy's ass. If the mummy was not removed, it would never be found.

Pick it up and have a look. The booklet is half a foot wide and long, and its texture has turned yellow.

On the cover is written 'Piaoyun Essays'.

Piaoyun should be a name, essay, something like a diary.

Xu Mo opened it out of curiosity, and suddenly felt as if a door to a new world had opened.The records here are indeed some daily routines, and most of the content is related to "cultivating immortals" besides local customs.

For example, this sentence: "I went to Zixia Mountain, watched the sun rise in the east, and the purple air came from the east. I knew there was an expert, and I waited. I saw a fellow Taoist riding an ox. After seeing the ceremony, I asked Liu An, who was a loose cultivator. Instead of discussing the Tao In three days, I have gained a lot, and I feel that I have made further progress in the road of cultivating immortals. '

Another example is this sentence: "Swallow the swamp, eat the essence of the cloud valley, and open the valley for three months. Although you are hungry, you are good at cultivation; seal your sword in the hut, cultivate your body, form a relationship, and spread goodness. Great kindness!" '

The meaning between the lines probably refers to cultivation.

Xu Mo would have believed it before he saw a ghost, not to mention that he had actually experienced fraudulent corpses, and he was even more convinced of it.

"Is this still a world of cultivating immortals?"

Xu Mo felt that something was stirring in his heart.

Man, until death is a boy!
But when he thought of the big man-eating tiger, he fell silent again.

No matter how wonderful this world is, you have to live through tonight to have a chance to see it.

At this time, the sky was already very dark, and it was unrealistic to read all the booklets. Xu Mo was thinking about a problem at this time. Taoist Piaoyun, that is, the mummy, since he is a Taoist who cultivates immortals, he should be quite capable, but he is not. Died in this mountain temple.

How did he die then?

When carrying it before, except for dehydration and dry stir-frying, I didn't see any wounds on the other party's body.

Besides, the mountain temple also belongs to the sphere of influence of the tiger. Didn't Taoist Piaoyun get attacked by the tiger when he came?It is also a miracle.

Xu Mo flipped back quickly. Since this booklet was just essays, there might be something written by Taoist Piaoyun before his death at the end.

Sure enough, there was a discovery.

Xu Mo leaned over to the broken window and read in the last dim light outside.

On the last few pages, it reads, "I entered Zangwang Mountain on the third day of the seventh lunar month. I met a tiger and fought him. I was defeated. Fortunately, his spiritual wisdom was already open, and he was eager to seek the Tao. He didn't eat my body. He lived here one by one, preaching and teaching the Dharma, enlightening him." A tiger is also a teacher and a friend! '

"The tiger has a firm mind, and I can't match the heart of seeking Tao. I am ashamed, ashamed!" '

Xu Mo's heart skipped a beat, the tiger is the tiger, the king of mountain beasts.

Isn't this a tiger?

The tiger mentioned in Piaoyun's essays is most likely the huge tiger outside.

Quickly look back.

Blank page, no follow-up!

At this moment, Xu Mo felt the resentment of those readers who chased half of the book but were eunuchs.

Can't wait for the white knife to enter and the red knife to exit.

"Old Taoist Piaoyun, if you write half of this, you will stop eunuchs, why don't you write!"

Xu Mo cursed.

It feels like I have learned something, but there are still many unsolved mysteries.

For example, after Taoist Piaoyun and the tiger became friends, what happened between the man and the tiger?

Also, how did Taoist Piaoyun die?Does it have anything to do with that tiger?
Judging by the way the corpse is dried, I am afraid that it has been dead for some years.

Of course, Xu Mo didn't have the time to read many of these essays. There may be answers Xu Mo wanted to know, and it was very likely that there were some secret records of cultivating immortals.

Good stuff.

Put away first.

Xu Mo put the booklet in his arms.

It was quiet outside, Xu Mo thought about whether to go out for a run, but it was hard to make up his mind.

Especially knowing that the tiger outside is not simple, has intelligence, and knows how to practice, isn't it better than a monkey?
To put it more bluntly, this is a tiger demon.

Maybe at this moment, the grandson is squatting outside as Voldemort, waiting for him to go out.

In addition, since Taoist Piaoyun is dead, how can his body move?Still so fierce?
What happened to the lantern with green flames in the other party's hand?

Xu Mo felt that he had only reached the tip of the iceberg, obviously the water inside was deep.

At this moment, a tiger howled suddenly from the forest outside.

Xu Mo hurriedly probed to look, and found a green light flickering in the distance, accompanied by bursts of roaring tigers, and the crisp sound of trees snapping, as if all of a sudden there was chaos.

"A fight?"

Xu Mo narrowed his eyes, secretly thinking that the opportunity has come.
