The witch looks at her moves

Chapter 4 To the New World
  The village where Su Zhen grew up had long been destroyed by floods, and the soil structure of the cultivated land was also destroyed. It was not contracted for planting and became a complete wasteland.

After the disaster, he moved to the town and lost most of his memories of the village. If there hadn't been an overpass a hundred meters in front of his house, he wouldn't have been able to determine the location of his home.

This old bridge to be demolished is the only road leading to the village.

The neighborhoods near the Old Bridge have long been uninhabited. They have been torn down to pieces, and the dilapidated old houses smell of dust and mold. The laughter and laughter of the past will always remain in the memory.

There were old advertisements posted on the abandoned telephone poles. Su Zhen stopped and looked at them for a while. Apart from the common psoriasis advertisements such as asking for a child at high prices, collecting blood at high prices, and unblocking pipes, the rest were almost all advertisements for Jiuxiang Mountain tour groups.

Jiuxiang Mountain is the most famous mountain in Nantang.

There are many folklore and supernatural stories about it. With the vigorous publicity from all parties, supporting tourism has also been launched in a hurry. Along with it, there is also the famous local Sanhui Bodhisattva.

Su Zhen searched for a while and found the promotional color image of Zhang Sanhui Bodhisattva.

"The end of the world is coming. The Three Wisdom Bodhisattva saves all sentient beings. Believe in Buddhism and ensure peace..."

The promotional words below are barely distinguishable, but the Bodhisattva's head and three weird arms are mostly covered by another house sales advertisement, and have been eroded by wind and frost, turning white and difficult to identify.

Without thinking much, Su Zhen walked through the unrecognizable old street and arrived in front of the old bridge.

As he climbed over the road railing at the end of the bridge, the originally sunny weather suddenly turned dark.

The sky flickered like a broken light bulb without warning, and then dark clouds rolled in from the sky, covering the sky and the sun in a blink of an eye.

In the thick rolling clouds, thunder and lightning danced wildly like wild dragons, leaving bright golden carvings in the clouds.

Over the deserted village, flashes of light and roars followed one after another. Before Su Zhen could react, he saw large water marks appearing on the bridge one after another. Soon, heavy rain poured down from the sky, covering everything as far as the eye could see. The world is swallowed up by rain.

The rain came too suddenly.

After a while, Su Zhen was soaked from head to toe. He looked at the endless overpass and felt that this old bridge was not connecting the village of his childhood, but some more ancient ruins.

He originally wanted to go back, but after taking a bus from home for half an hour and walking a few kilometers, he didn't want to bother anymore. He gritted his teeth and ran towards the other end of the bridge in the heavy rain.

It rained heavily and the sky and the earth were white.

He was running on the bridge as if he was running in another world. There were often whispers in his ears, but if you listen carefully, it was just the sound of wind.

He gritted his teeth and rushed over the railing at the other end of the bridge, sinking his feet into the muddy road.

Behind the dirt road is the village. The village has almost disappeared. Looking around, all you can see is the undulating waves of amaranth in the violent storm.

Su Zhen trampled a large area of ​​half-man-high amaranth and trudged back to the old site along the trampled road. Strangely enough, all the cement poured by other households was destroyed by the flood without a trace. The old banyan trees that had died long ago were preserved.

"This is it."

Su Zhen kept wiping the rain from her face and looked forward.

The banyan tree is still as huge as in childhood memories, but it has lost its vitality. The complex root system exposed above the ground is like a bloated sarcoma. The roots are attached to it like blood vessels, emitting a pungent rotten smell. The main trunk is also in this flesh. The bulbous root system looked thin and small, and the slender branches drooped in the heavy rain, and there was no trace of the former prosperity.

It looked like an ancient corpse, which frightened Su Zhen.

He took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, took out the fruit from his schoolbag, placed it on the plate, and took out the already cold roast goose wrapped in oil paper.

Then, he took out a piece of paper and read out according to the words on it:
  "Born to be a great mother, he works hard day and night; he spreads Qi in all directions and descends outside the womb valley; such techniques are all in place.

With my soul, I make a covenant with you, and all the ancestors with hundreds of millions of meritorious deeds will bear witness together! ! ! "

The rain is like a torrent.

Su Zhen shouted at the top of his lungs to ensure that his voice would not be swallowed up by the noise from the outside world.

In the final sound of the word "Certificate", there is lightning cracking the clouds and shining on the heaven and earth.

Thunder roared, strong winds swept, and thick fog rushed over Su Zhen's head against the low clouds.

It seemed that he was the only one left in the vast world.

After reciting, Su Zhen cut his palm, dripped the blood into the root system of the old banyan tree, and kowtowed three times.

The roots were full of blood, and new shoots came out after death. The branches grew vigorously in the rain and extended towards Su Zhen.

It's a pity that Su Zhen was in coma and had no chance to see this magical scene.

----

After Su Zhen woke up, he found himself lying by the river. He didn't know how long he had slept.

But he is not worried because he believes that he is dreaming now.

If it wasn't a dream, how could I become a girl?
  The girl has figure-shaped bangs, and two long locks of hair fall down her face, bending into a beautiful arc. The rest of her long hair falls on her back, and the ends are tied by a hair rope. Her long hair is smooth and soft, and is a rare red color. This red color is extremely layered. It is a bright red in the sun, and becomes burgundy in the shadow.

The girl's clothes are pure white, her waist is slender, her childish face is as pale as paper, with no trace of blood, only the slender green veins are exposed, revealing a frightening beauty.

This is the reflection Su Zhen saw in the water.

She seems to be a girl from ancient times.

How could you have such a dream? Is this puberty coming?
  Wait, what was I doing before the dream?

Su Zhen thought about it for a moment and felt a splitting headache.

Does it also hurt in dreams?
  Su Zhen pinched his arm hard, and the pain made him cry out. He didn't believe in evil, so he touched his face, body, and legs, then picked up a lock of red hair and looked at it repeatedly in the palm of his hand, trying to find evidence of a dream, but …

"This is too true."

If the previous prophecy note just made him unable to understand, then the current situation almost made him crazy.

Could it be that his soul has passed through the body of an ancient little girl?
  So where is this?

Su Zhen sat by the river in the drizzle, looking at the rushing water in the river and the high cliff piercing the sky on the other side of the bank. She was at a loss and didn't know where to go.

The constant headache made him give up thinking, and he temporarily regarded all this as a nightmare.

About half an hour later, the rain stopped and the surrounding area gradually became brighter. The obviously rising temperature warmed his body and made him much warmer.

"It looks like the sun is out."

Su Zhen thought subconsciously and looked at the sun in the sky.

He froze again.

There is indeed a round luminous object hanging in the sky, but it is definitely not the sun!
  It was a white cotton-like aggregate, like boiled sugar, lumps stuck together, expanding and contracting like breathing, with things rustling through it, like an ant's nest. Many strips sprouted from the edge of the insect nest. A closer look revealed that they were actually countless legs. The legs and limbs of pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, and other animals were all mixed in, and even human ones could be seen.

They sway softly and gracefully.

What is this?
  Su Zhen looked directly at the "sun" and felt no glare, only nausea. He leaned behind the big rock and couldn't help but retched.

When his thoughts were confused, he heard someone's voice coming from behind the stone.

Su Zhen poked his head out and saw two figures that could be considered human figures.

The figure on the left is tall and thin, while the figure on the right is short and fat. The strange thing is that the heads that should be placed on their necks are actually held in their arms like rubber balls.

The tall and thin man was picking at the three strands of hair he had left with his long and pointed fingers, as if he were catching fleas. The short and fat man had more hair, four in total.

They were talking as they walked. This is a language Su Zhen has never heard before, but for some reason, he can completely understand what they are saying.

"I have been wandering around with Tianzun all these years, and I have no fixed place to live. Now I finally have a place to live." The tall and thin man said.

"Yes, I hope nothing will go wrong this time. Once the cave is opened, you and I can practice Taoism with peace of mind. Becoming an immortal will only take a hundred years. By the way, has the name of the sect been decided?" asked Chunky.

"Miaoyan Palace."

"The Palace of Wonderful Words? What a name. It just so happens that Tianzun likes to tell wonderful words the most, haha. By the way, when does Tianzun plan to recruit the first batch of disciples?"

"in three days."

"it is good!"

The short man clapped his hands and applauded, with a face that couldn't hide the joy. He said: "Other sects have to look at their talent to accept disciples, but Tianzun has obtained the Secret of Li Sha, and capable disciples can make as many disciples as they want. As long as we are given ten years to the Palace of Miaoyan, the four major sacred palaces should have a fifth one. If we are given a hundred years, the Great Zhaoyuan of the Buddha Spirit Mountain and the Nixiang Mountain of Wandaoyuanliu will all be left behind by us. !”

The tall man wanted to say something, but there was a look of alarm on his face.

"Shh, it seems like something is eavesdropping."

"Something? What is it? Don't scare me."

The chatter disappeared.

The footsteps are getting closer and closer.

Su Zhen didn't know who the visitor was, but his subconscious told him that these two monsters were definitely not good people, and they would die if caught!
  He started to run.

This is also the time.

The "sun" in the sky emits red light. After contracting and expanding several times, it goes out without warning, and the surrounding area suddenly falls into darkness.

He felt like he had been hit by a hammer in the back of his head. He was dizzy, unsteady on his feet, and fell down.

The sound of the two monsters talking was sometimes closer and sometimes far away.

"Laojun turned off the light after half an hour. Isn't this too fast?"

"It's the last day of the Little New Year, so it's normal to get dark soon. The New Year is coming soon, and the days will be long and the nights will be short, and Yang Qi will be at its peak, which will help us reconcile the evil spirit of Li Sha secretly... By the way, this little girl?"

"Take it back, Miaoyan Palace is short of disciples."

The sound was completely inaudible.

----

"The ghost incident at the aquarium has attracted continuous attention from many media. Recently, the Tansha County Aquarium has reopened. The popularity has not decreased at all compared to a few months ago, and there is an endless stream of tourists.

Experts say that feudal superstition is not advisable, and ghosts must have a scientific explanation. Next, our reporter will provide you with the report——"

When Su Zhen woke up, she was in the hospital and the news was playing on the TV.

The familiar smell of disinfectant filled the surroundings. My mother fell asleep on the hospital bed, and her aunt who came to visit her was packing her things.

"Was it really just a dream?"

Su Zhen said to himself.

That's right, how could something like that be true? Not only was it a dream, but he was also dreaming when he went to the old village site to perform the ceremony.

When he goes to bed without finishing his homework, he often dreams about doing his homework, and it should be a similar situation this time.

There was pain in my hand.

He raised his arm and found a bandage on his palm.

"What's going on?" Su Zhen was surprised.

"Su Zhen, you finally woke up. You must be exhausted."

When my aunt saw him waking up from the recliner, she immediately began to mutter: "It's true that you have nothing to do and run to the countryside. The old houses there are flooded and demolished. They have long since disappeared. What's wrong? Your house is buried under the ground." What kind of heirloom antique is that? Hey, you are smart enough to know how to call your uncle, otherwise it would rain so heavily and you would die on the road."

what? !

Su Zhen was dumbfounded.

Not only did he go to his hometown and complete the ceremony, he also ran back from the old bridge, found a phone booth and called his uncle?

When did this happen?
  Why doesn't he remember anything?

When my aunt saw his look, she was angry and funny, and said, "Are you in a state of sleep? Just now, when you were peeling an apple for your aunt and talking about things at school, you were very eloquent. I also said that you have changed your gender. , did you go back to sleep after a long nap?"

"I peeled the apple and talked about school?"

Su Zhen grabbed an uncut apple peel from the trash can, feeling horrified.

He had no memory of these things.

"Su Zhen, what's wrong with you? Why are you so distracted? Do you want a master to check with you to make sure you're not possessed by evil spirits?" Auntie's teasing turned to worry.

"No, no need."

"Then you should burn incense with your grandma more often. It's scary like this." My aunt said, "You kid, don't believe it. Your grandma has been burning incense all her life. She is over seventy years old and her body is still very strong. "

Su Zhen agreed perfunctorily, while her aunt talked and became too lazy to nag.

In the end, the only sound left was the sound of rain outside the window.

It's not as big as before, and it's dripping.

The pain in his head gradually subsided, and the more he woke up, the more frightened he felt.

Su Zhen sat on the chair and recalled everything that had happened before several times.

He gradually believed that all this was not a dream or an illusion.

Something unusual happened to him.

Nine p.m.

His mother was still sleeping. After chatting with his aunt for a while, he was about to take her car home.

"You've finished your summer homework, don't forget to take it," my aunt told me.

"There is only one essay left. There is only one day tomorrow, so I can finish it." Su Zhen answered casually.

"composition?"

My aunt frowned and said, "I think you finished your composition in the second half of the day. Oh, did you fail to write your English composition? Hey, like your cousin, you always write your summer homework in the last few days."

what?
  Su Zhen didn't care to reply to his aunt's words. He hurriedly opened the composition book. Unexpectedly, it was already filled with words. The words were neat and graceful, completely different from his handwriting.

Composition title: "To You in the New World"
