Chapter 307 Mirage
Tan Ren picked up the thing and pulled it up into a small piece, which was very soft like wax.He mentioned the origin of the mirage to me, and when I heard it, I immediately understood why both Zhou Xuanye said that we were tricked by Yang Ming.

According to legend, there is a kind of sea beast in the sea, called mirage beast, which can swallow clouds and breathe out mist, and turn it into a mirage. Where the mirage has been active for a long time, a kind of seaweed is easy to grow.It is said that this kind of seaweed grows from the excrement of mirage beasts, so it is called mirage grass.

The whole body of this kind of grass is snow white, like coral, and like ointment wax. After treatment, it can be preserved for a long time. When it is lit, it can turn into a mirage and make people fall into a mirage dream. Come out of the mirage.

It is said that mirages can only be found in the deepest waters in the south, while mirages are under the jurisdiction of the Dragon King of the South China Sea. To avoid the scrutiny of the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

At that time, there were big theater troupes, and every big theater troupe had their own unique skills. Among them, "Bixian" was a relatively high-end trick, which was specially performed for the rich.

Most of the wall fairy is a screen with paintings of buildings and palaces, or paintings of fairy mountains and purple clouds. People who juggle, invite a noble person to come up, let him stare at the screen, and ask him: If you can enter the screen painting Where do you want to go.

The man pointed out a scene, and the juggler took a fan and threw it at the opposite door.There are interlayers in the fan bone of that fan, which is made into something like a fire fold. Open the front cover and fan it towards the person, and a mist will blow over. At this time, the person will enter the mirage made by mirage grass. , Wandering around the palace as much as you want.

People in the world call this kind of tricks the wall fairy.

In "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio", there is also a story about the fairy in the painting. Later, someone infers that there is no fairy in the mural. It is likely that the scholar inhaled mirage by accident, so there is a fairy in the wall. , the experience of turning upside down with the fairy in the painting.

And the white substance left on the grass now, upon sniffing, has a very peculiar light fragrance, that is to say.

At this moment, Yang Ming had disappeared even with his tent, and we were clearly still camping next to Guo Zhacuo in some snow-capped mountain.Obviously, after the camp was set up, the kid lit the mirage. Since then, many things we have experienced may be false.

Even the three-meter-long female ghost is probably fake!

Let me just say, how could a female ghost come out of this place out of nowhere.Thinking of this, I immediately remembered Fu An. If the experience after that was just a dream, then the disappearance of Fu An was also a dream?

I immediately took out the seat of God and shouted: "Brother! Are you still there!" No one answered me, but the strange telepathy made me very sure that Fu An was still in the seat of God.Zhou Xuanye checked it at this time, frowned and said, "It seems to be injured again." After a pause, he then showed a look of enlightenment, and said, "I see, this kid saved us."

Tan Ren nodded slightly, looked at the time, and said: "We slept in the tent for a whole day and night, and it is ten o'clock in the evening. The mirage burns very slowly, and it won't be finished until it burns for ten or eight days. We were able to wake up so early and not fall asleep to death, it must be that the brat thought of some way to burn the mirage ahead of time."

No wonder we were in the 'Snow Mountain' at that time, we always felt colder and colder when we woke up. We slept all day and night together, so it's no wonder it wasn't cold!This place is high in altitude and low in temperature, and activities are a necessary means of heating.If you lie here for a day and a night, you will definitely be frozen out.

But at this time, my body didn't feel any abnormality. Since I ate that bead, my adaptability has suddenly become stronger, of course, except for this damn high reaction.No one else has a problem, but I have a problem, which is purely against me.

At this moment, Fu An was so weak that he couldn't utter a single word, I secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time hurried to touch the incense in the equipment bag, planning to pay tribute to it, anyway, it's better than disappearing.We got up in a hurry just now, and didn't pay attention to other things, but now I got into the tent to look for preparations, and suddenly found something bad: there was less equipment.

In fact, the missing is not too much, only some mountaineering equipment and a set of diving equipment are missing, which should be taken by Yang Ming.After Zhou Xuanye came in, he realized that the map on his body was also lost!

Tan Ren took out food from the equipment bag. Although we were full in the mirage, our real body hadn't eaten a grain of rice all day and night. Now that we've slowed down, I actually feel a little weak, so I I took it and ate it.

After inhaling a stick of incense, a very vague voice came from the altar. It was obviously Fu An who wanted to talk to us, but it was too weak now, no matter what it said, we couldn't hear it clearly.In the end, Zhou Xuanye said, let him stop tormenting, cultivate well, and told me: "It has been damaged several times, we can't let it get hurt again, no matter what the situation is, we can't let it leave the god seat, you know? "

I nodded quickly, and decided that I couldn't just let Fu An come out for a stroll. Although there is only such a big brother, although he is a little psychologically twisted now, and he wants to torture me from time to time, but if the ashes disappear, I'm afraid I won't find another one who treats me so well. Ghost.

At the moment, we are discussing countermeasures while eating.

In fact, it doesn't matter if the map is lost. Zhou Xuanye's IQ is the same as opening a cheat. This kind of simple hand-drawn map, which is not complicated in itself, has long been memorized in his mind.Although some equipment was lost, it was nothing too important, and it didn't matter if I persisted along the way.

But what puzzles us now is, what is the origin of that Yang name?
Zhou Xuanye chewed the beef jerky and said: "In these days, those who still know these tricks and phantom tricks are probably from a family with some roots."

Tan Ren said: "I'm afraid it's more than that. This mirage can fascinate us, but it can't fascinate that brat. The brat must know what he's doing, and he will definitely stop it..." He has always disliked him. Too much talk, half of what he said, but I also understood what he meant.

Now that Fu An is injured, did it become like this to make the mirage burn faster, or was it made like this by Yang Ming?
It's a pity that Fu An can't say a complete sentence now, and this question can only be temporarily suppressed.

Zhou Xuanye said again: "There is a second point. What is he trying to bring us down? To seek wealth and kill? The little thing he took is worth less than one gram of this mirage. After the method is lost, this thing has a price but no market."

I also find it strange, why did you take the map when you didn't take other things?

Could it be... His destination is the same as ours?
"Could it be that he also wants to go to Little Fusang?"

Tan Ren said: "There is no name written on the map, and we haven't mentioned these things since we met. How did he know that it was Xiao Fusang's map?" Only the three of us in the know can understand it, so what's the use of him taking it?

To be willing to take out a mirage to bring us down is already a huge investment, let alone seeking money?

As for killing... At that time, the three of us were all fascinated by the mirage, as if he was really going to kill us, and he could have killed us in our sleep.

So, what is his real intention?
When we were discussing this, Fu An suddenly let out a whining sound. He seemed eager to mix up our topic and wanted to say something, but he was too weak, and his voice was high and low, intermittent, and he could not hear clearly .

I knew it must know something, but now seeing it in such a hurry, I couldn't bear it, so I said: "Brother, don't worry, it won't be too late to tell us after you have recovered."

Only then did Fu An become quieter.

After some analysis, we have roughly inferred this Yang Ming: first, his background must be extraordinary, definitely not what he said; second, he is not suspected of killing anyone, Zhou Xuanye estimated that he should just Wanted to give us a warning.Whether the whole branch of the mirage started to burn, or half of it, we don't know, but the possibility of the latter should be higher.If you want us to die, just do it directly, why waste mirage.

Thirdly, if Fu An was not injured to extinguish the mirage, it was very likely that Yang Ming was injured, and Yang Ming was merciful.In Zhou Xuanye's words, being able to injure Fu An like this shows that his own strength is not bad, and with a little more strength, it will be no problem to destroy Fu An.

But Yang Ming didn't do this, obviously his subordinates were showing mercy again.

After such an analysis, the resentment and resentment in my heart became less.People seem to be like this, once a person does too many good deeds, even if he only does one bad deed, he will be hated immediately; while a wicked person does bad things right, even if he does one good deed, people will hate him. impression has been greatly improved.

This is probably a kind of inferiority of human beings.

From this point of view, sometimes when being a human being, you should not be too comprehensive, otherwise you will only force yourself to walk on thin ice.

After the discussion, Tan Ren took out a coin, tossed a divination, and said: "If you know the name and time, it will be easy to find." This method of divination is relatively simple, and the calculation is not so precise, but Emergency is not bad.

There will be a result soon, 27 hexagrams, look for the lost and found in the northeast.

Northeast, isn't it just...

My heart skipped a beat, and I said, "Boss, it seems that he has also entered the mountain."

Tan Ren spit out two words indifferently: "Nonsense."

Zhou Xuanye said: "Pack up your things and go to the mountain tomorrow morning." This scene is quite similar to our situation in the mirage.

Tan Ren also got up, his face was very ugly, if he went to the mountain and met the surname Yang, it seemed that Tan Ren would give him a good look.Since Yang Ming would rely on the mirage to intimidate us, he obviously didn't dare to confront us head-on. Even if we do meet, we just need to be careful, and he won't be able to play any tricks.

Immediately, the three of us put away the tent, and with flashlights on, we began to head towards the snowy area far away in the dark.

Although we can't see it at the moment, we all know that it is there.
