Taoist temple in the mountains

Chapter 624, numb and calm

In the end, the teacher agreed with Wang Zejing and Xie Yan and others, not because of anything else, but because Wang Weigong also followed. Regarding Wang Weigong, Niu Zhiwei felt that even if terrorists came, they could punch them fall.

The four of them followed the trunk of a walking tractor and squeezed together with these buckets. The pampered Wang Zejing was squeezed so uncomfortable. Thanks to Xie Yan's gentlemanly demeanor, he sat with Wang Weigong until the most exciting Go somewhere uncomfortable.

Fang Qing looked at the few people around with a strange expression.

"You actually came here"

"I'm very curious about how they transport water. Is it as hard as the teacher said? Don't they just use a tractor to drag a few buckets of water? Isn't this how people living in the mountains live like this?" Wang Zejing muttered.

"Actually, you don't want to see Mr. Bai, he looks like Daoist Yun, and he is so handsome that he breaks through the sky. My mother really can't tell that he is handsome, but his behavior is not a gentleman at all." Thank you Yan Tiao smiled at Wang Zejing.

Wang Zejing remembered the horror of being dominated by Bai Laoshi, and angrily knocked on Xie Yan's dog's head.
"It smells so good." Fang Qing sniffed her nose pretendingly and said.

"What smell? I didn't smell it." Xie Yan asked doubtfully.

"The fragrance of dog food." Fang Qing pointed it out directly, Wang Zejing and Xie Yan blushed, especially Wang Zejing's girls blushed so much that they could only blow Xie Yan's dog's head angrily to vent.

As soon as the dog food was mentioned, Xie Yan started to chatter, and forced to change the topic. Only Wang Weigong closed his eyes and rested his mind. Neither Fang Qing, Wang Zejing nor Xie Yan planned to strike up a conversation. It's Wang Weigong's invisible temperament that no one can stand, it's much better now with eyes closed
At this time, the walking tractor finally started to set off. Except for Wang Weigong who was sitting in the trunk of the truck, they felt fine.

"Haha, you guys have never been on a tractor before, right? It's not a good feeling to ride a tractor." They were driven by a young and strong black-skinned boy, who was singing a folk song while teasing, but the tune of the folk song was absolutely perfect. Most were drowned out by another voice.

The sound of walking tractors groaning, and the sound of diesel engines even made it impossible for them to chat happily, and they needed to be loud to hear them.

At the beginning, the road was clear, Xie Yan said without hesitation: "Actually, this road is not a big deal, it's not as dangerous as it is said."

"It's also possible that the dangerous place has not yet arrived. In fact, we are already very dangerous now. The bumps are really severe." Wang Zejing couldn't bear the bumps the most, and her face was about to vomit.

"It's normal for you little kids in the city to be unaccustomed to sitting. It's not like the children in our village. They have been fetching water with adults since they were 8 years old. At that time, they used bullock carts, which were more uncomfortable than this walking tractor. , we haven’t made it through yet,” the young man said with a smile.

"Eight years old? You don't need to go to school when you are eight years old," Xie Yan said openly.

"Not going to school." The young man said as a matter of course.

Fang Qing on the side couldn't help but said: "Reading can change your destiny. If you study, you may have a better life. Don't worry about it."

Before Fang Qing could finish her words, the walk-behind tractor got stuck on a rock, causing her to stagger. Now Fang Qing didn't think there was anything good about this place. Apart from the pitiful people, it was just what the book said. wild land.
"What school do I go to? I don't study well. I don't like to study since I was a child. Those children who study have gone out and never come back. We have to stay here. If we don't, what will the old people in the village do? I won't study. Maybe I want to go out as soon as I study, study is poisonous." The young man grinned and said with a warm and honest smile.

Once you see the colorful world outside, it is very difficult to go back to this village with nothing but sand. It is a very contradictory problem. The people inside need to be taken care of. Once you go outside, it is difficult to come in again.
Thinking about it in their shoes, both Xie Yan and Fang Qing felt that this was very stupid, but such a stupid person would not be able to hate them, but would find them very cute.

"This is the so-called people can't help themselves in the Jianghu." Wang Weigong said indifferently.

Xie Yan expressed his deep agreement, feeling that Wang Weigong's face is not so scary anymore, as long as he doesn't look at each other, he can barely communicate: "By the way, old Wang, I really admire you for being able to sit in this car without changing your face. , As expected of a martial arts practitioner. You are also here to see if there are really such poor mountains and rivers here."

"It's not." Wang Weigong said honestly.

"Why didn't you come there? Could it be?" Xie Yan's eyes became wretched, implying that he came with Fang Qing
"No, it was my master who asked me to come." Wang Weigong said bluntly.

The ancestor of Wang Weigong?They knew it was Li Yun, and now Fang Qing became interested, and was about to ask what Wang Weigong's master had said, when the walking tractor stopped suddenly.

"Be careful, it's dangerous here." The young man reminded.

"What's the danger? Damn it!" Xie Yan was about to say something, but when he saw the scene in front of him, he was almost scared out of his stomach.

On the cliff of natural danger, a horizontal ditch connects the two sides.

Here is the dry and cracked soil, running yellow sand, and the other side is lush and green, the devil knows that there is such a big difference between the two places just a few hundred meters away.

However, what gave them even greater sensory stimulation was the abyss below this huge chasm. Now everyone knows that this water transportation is based on the accumulation of life. They believed it, really believed it, this narrow passage, This huge gap.

"Let's go, I want to go home early to meet my girlfriend. That short-haired girl is my girlfriend. We are going to get married this year." The young man joked with a smile: "I plan to finish transporting the water this time." For a while, I married my girlfriend in my hometown"

The young man's face was filled with a happy smile. Xie Yan next to him wanted to bless him, but he couldn't even smile now. Facing this abyss, it would be a ghost if he could smile.

Xie Yan, who was just about to shrink back, saw Wang Zejing next to him, and felt a conflict in his heart. If only Wang Weigong and Fang Qing were in front of him, he would definitely shrink back. But now.
"Brother, you have to be careful," Xie Yan could only remind.

"Of course, I have walked on this cliff for so many years and never had an accident. Believe me, you can let me drift here."

"Don't drift, really don't drift, I believe you, it's not enough to trust you!" Xie Yan held the bucket in his hands, almost peeing in fright.

The young man grinned and started the walking tractor
This is what it feels like to have thousands of troops crossing the single-plank bridge. A walking tractor carrying a few plastic buckets slowly crossed the single-plank bridge. Xie Yan dared not raise his head, but only dared to squat behind.

"Do they come here often?" Fang Qing couldn't help asking.

"Probably, I have to go about once a week. Now that I have a tractor, it's good. In the past, it was all done by manpower. It was moved by manpower, and then pulled back by bullock carts. At that time, it was impossible to transport one or two buckets of water a day. "The young man said lightly.

These words made Xie Yan and the others feel sad for a while. What they can easily get by turning on the tap every day, and the water wasted by playing with snakes in the bathroom when they take a shower, actually require them to risk their lives to get it.
If you don't really experience it, you really don't know that there is such a great horror between life and death, and there is such a helplessness.

Frankly speaking, Xie Yan felt that walking on it was more terrifying than riding a tractor.

At this time, Wang Weigong got off the walking tractor and walked freely on this dead road without any fear of the great terror beneath him.

"Why did you get out of the car?" Xie Yan trembled, thinking that he wanted to show his courage in front of the girls.

"I don't know, the master told me to come down when I crossed a dead end." Wang Weigong stood on the cliff like a single-plank bridge, his expression unwavering.

This made even the young man who had seen many battles a little admired: "Most people will definitely tremble with fear for the first time, you are not bad, young man."

"The great horror between life and death, I have already understood it."

Wang Weigong smiled, remembering Li Yun's instructions, his whole body's energy and spirit were raised to the peak, and the force of walking became stronger.

One step, two steps, nothing happened at all, only one step away from the end.

When they were one step away, Xie Yan and Fang Qing who were behind him breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sure enough, it's quite safe, brother, your technique is better."

While speaking, the big tree at the top suddenly broke, and it was impossible to guard against. The whole big tree fell down, and there was no room for anyone to react.

The big tree looks very tall and big, at least it fell down, and the people with this tractor could not be spared
The revolving lantern of life is in the eyes of Wang Zejing, Xie Yan, and Fang Qing, and the past to the present of his life flashes.
Xie Yan only felt that at the end of life, at least he should at least express his feelings, and turned around and confessed affectionately to Wang Zejing: "I like it."

Wang Weigong dismounted in an instant, breathed heavily into his dantian, and all the vibrating power of the ground and muscles was transmitted to his right hand.

"Tiger, climb the mountain hard!"

pat-

The seemingly powerless fist met the falling broken tree, causing Xie Yanyouth and others an unforgettable mental shock.

The trees burst from the inside in a gesture of being divided by five horses, and the cracked sawdust filled the sky.
"Perfect solution"

The Wangwei Palace, whose body was red all over due to excessive force, looked like a god of war, standing on the ground.

"You, you." The young man almost fell off the tractor in fright. He was not killed by a big tree, but was almost scared to death by Wang Weigong.

"It's okay, it's just a little warm-up exercise. I'm finally done with what the master told me." Wang Weigong held his breath and let out a foul breath from his mouth.

Fang Qing next to her said with a shocked face: "Your master knew that such a thing happened a long time ago? That Taoist priest?"

"Well, the ancestor told me that you will encounter danger when crossing this bridge, and ask me to guard it, and you will be fine after this calamity." Wang Weigong honestly repeated Li Yun's words speak out.

Fang Qing and Xie Yan at the side felt that it was not ordinary magic. Is this Taoist priest a great prophet?So accurate.

Even Wang Zejing, who firmly believes in materialism, feels miraculous. Secondly, he thinks that Wang Weigong's strength scares people to death. Isn't it superhuman to smash a big tree with one punch?
"Haha, this little brother is really powerful. I didn't believe it before when he smashed a tree with one punch." After expressing his feelings, the young man continued to drive the walking tractor, as if the thrilling situation just now was nothing. .

Even though the big tree didn't fall down, Xie Yan and the others' legs were weak for a while, and they couldn't even stand up. They could only sit in the walking tractor and shiver.

"Shouldn't you be afraid when you encounter this kind of thing? It's a big tree. If it wasn't for Wei Gong, we would have died." Fang Qing looked at the relaxed young man, not knowing what to do. say something, is this the guts
It wasn't courage. All three of them could see the frightened expression on the young man's face just now. It was distorted and filled with fear and despair.

"Ah, you're talking about this. I'm afraid. Of course I'm afraid. But isn't it normal for things to fall down? Don't talk about big trees, the big rocks on it will fall from time to time." The young man smiled and pointed to the top And the following said: "If you are lucky, just get a little injury and you are done. If you are unlucky, then tell me here. I don't know how many times I have seen it before. Many old friends from the past have confessed to come here again. This time I was lucky enough to have this awesome classmate with me, haha, I am really lucky."

The tone was understated, and the young and middle-aged people who were also driving walking tractors also expressed their relief at his luck, but they didn't have much to say, and continued to move towards the water source.

While walking, due to the vibration of the walking tractor, some small stones fell from the top. The sound of these small stones vibrating the ground made people jump, but the teenagers who operated the walking tractor had no heart. Fluctuations are even treated as conversation material for lively conversation.

Not because I'm not afraid.
Not because there is no fear.
Not because of facing life and death calmly
But because it has become numb, the great terror between life and death is no longer terror——

Because of a little bit of clean water, I am numb to the life and death of my companions, and numb to my own life and death.

"Is it worth it?" Xie Yan said complicatedly while hugging his trembling knees, and buried his whole head under his knees.

This is the question of all the students present except Wang Weigong.

Is it worth it.
"It's not a question of whether it's worth it or not. Someone has to do it, and we have to do it."

The young man grinned, continued to sing folk songs and slang in his hometown, and walked towards the water source with a walk-behind tractor.

Until the day when my life ends, I will not stop my footsteps.
