Warlock Notes

Chapter 9

After Zhenren Zhang left, I did not leave the village.Instead, I continued to stay in Zhang Zhenren's thatched cottage, studying the "Maoshan Secret Technique" given to me by Zhang Zhenren every day.Because he died to save me, so I must thoroughly study Maoshan spells so that he can be comforted.After all, Zhenren Zhang has made such a request all his life, and I must satisfy him.

This stay is two years.In the past two years, I have almost understood the contents of "Maoshan Secret Art".Of course, I will no longer be afraid of ghosts.

In the past two years, I have had a very harmonious relationship with the villagers in the ancient village. After all, I am a single man, and I don’t know how to grow vegetables. I rely on the villagers for help.And the villagers also like to ask me for help when something goes wrong.Although I am still in the groping stage, the villagers really trust me, or maybe their trust is given to Zhang Zhenren.

The ancient village is very poor, and there has been no change in the past two years. Once I asked them, have they ever thought about getting out of this mountain?
At that time, they all had expressions of indifference, and I was very surprised, so I kept asking, and finally they said: "Which young man would not want to go out of this mountain? But you have also seen that there is no road here, and it can only be passed down from generation to generation." I stayed in this mountain. Well, I just feel sorry for the children!"

Hearing this, I suddenly couldn't help but make a decision, I want to go out of the mountains, I want to make money, and come back as soon as possible to build a road for the villagers to get out of the mountains!Yes, after all, Zhang Zhenren once said that I will be doomed in three years. Now two years have passed, and there is only one year left. I have to do something meaningful in this year. .

Although the ancient village is not my hometown, I have received a lot of favors from them in the past two years, and they are all kind-hearted people.What's more, this is Zhang Zhenren's hometown, as an apprentice, I should do something for his old man.Accumulate virtue and do good deeds, I will always remember this sentence that Zhang Zhenren told me!
On the day I left the ancient village, the villagers sent me out of the village. Looking at their expectant eyes, the decision to build the road in my heart became more firm.

But I don't know if I didn't read the almanac when I went out, and before I got out of the mountain, I encountered a ghost!
The thing is like this, the ancient village is separated from the outside world by continuous mountains, and it is hundreds of kilometers across mountains and mountains.This kind of mountain road is extremely difficult, and it took a full day to go up the mountain in two years.But this time I was alone, and the road was unfamiliar, so when it was dark, I was still in the depths of the rolling mountains.

The mountains there are still primeval forests, and the dense trees block the moonlight which is not too bright.

At that time, I didn't know my exact location, I didn't know if I was on the wrong road, and I didn't know how far I was from the outside world.

Glancing at a big mountain not far in front of me, I sighed helplessly, and planned to spend the night in the mountain tonight, and then climbed over the mountain and hurried on my way after dawn.Because I only know that I can't walk recklessly anymore, if I can't see the wrong way at night, I might not be able to get around for the rest of my life.

Fortunately, it happened to be the night of the full moon at that time, and a round of bright moonlight hung high in the sky, reflecting a pale white color on the earth.However, because the forests in the mountains and forests are tall and dense, most of the moon is covered by the branches of the forests, which makes the mountain road dark and affects many, which is not easy to do.

On such a big night, walking among the wild roads in the mountains and forests, I feel a little nervous. After all, this environment makes people feel unsafe, even if I am a Maoshan warlock.

After walking in fear for a while, I suddenly heard the sound of someone talking in front of me. I felt strange in my heart. How can there be people in this deep mountain and wild forest in the middle of the night?

Curious in his heart, he hurriedly quickened his pace, turned a corner and passed through a clump of bamboo forests, and then saw a stone pavilion in front of him.But under the stone pavilion, there were actually two young men and an old man with a white beard sitting, and the conversation before was coming from them.

In the old age, the ancestors would build stone pavilions like this kind of long mountain road. The purpose is to have a place to rest when you are tired from walking, or to shelter from the rain. .

Seeing this, I stepped forward quickly, after all, it would be more at ease to have a companion in this barren mountain and wild forest in the middle of the night.But when I approached, the three of them were about to get up and leave, so I hurriedly shouted: "Brother in front, wait!"

When I called out, those three people stopped, turned their heads to look at me, and only heard one of the fatter men muttering: "Hey, it's really lively tonight, in this wilderness I met so many people in the wild."

"Three old brothers, are you going out of the mountain too?" I quickly stepped forward and asked them.

Another man with a bare head looked at me curiously and replied, "Yes, come out."

When I heard that they were going to go out of the mountain, I was excited and said, "I want to go out of the mountain too. It's really lonely to go alone. Why don't we go together so that we can be companions."

The bald man was kind, smiled, nodded and said: "Of course, but it's too late now, and it's difficult to walk at night, so we're going to stay at this old gentleman's house for a night, and we'll come back tomorrow morning." out of the mountain."

After hearing this, I realized that the white bearded old man was not with them.

"Meeting is fate. It just so happens that you are in company. The night is dark and the mountain road is difficult. You can go to my house with these two little brothers." At this time, the old man stretched out his hand to me with a smile on his face. greet.

I nodded, and gratefully reached out to shake his hand, but as soon as my hand touched him, I was stunned.Because his mother's old man's hand was so cold to the bone, holding his hand was like holding it on a block of ice, without any warmth at all.

Only then did I start to feel something was wrong, and hurriedly put a finger on his wrist pulse, and then found that it had no pulse.

Yes, "it", not "he", because I know this old man I met is not alive at all!
However, if you ask me, the old man is not a human being, so is he a ghost?I can't immediately confirm that he is a ghost. You must know that in this deep mountain and wild forest, anything is possible, which is why I feel uneasy walking alone.

If it is in a crowded place, such as a town, then I can be immediately sure that it is a ghost.But in this kind of mountain, apart from ghosts, there are many mountain spirits and monsters that often appear here. The common ones are tree spirits, stone spirits, and of course earth immortals.

The so-called earth immortals generally include foxes, weasels, hedgehogs, snakes, mice and so on.Especially in the north, these earth immortals are very famous. The so-called southern mao and northern horses, most of the horse immortals are horse brothers of these immortal families.They call the fox the Huxian, the weasel the Yellow Fairy, the hedgehog the White Fairy, the snake the Willow Fairy or the Chang Fairy, and the mouse the Gray Fairy.

Although there is a high possibility of the earth immortal appearing in this kind of deep mountain, I know that what the monks and the others met should not be an earth immortal.Because the earth immortals are all seeking to become immortals, although they are called earth immortals, they are not real immortals, but people's respectful title for them.If they want to practice to become immortals, they must do good deeds and accumulate virtue, so it is impossible to kill the monk's companions alive.This is why the Earth Immortal accepted so many disciples and used his identity as an Immortal to save people.

Of course, the Earth Immortal is not a living Bodhisattva, and the Earth Immortal can also harm people, but it is all because of offending it.Because they are generally very stingy, they can destroy people even if they toss about them. (Ordinary people try not to invite earth immortals to be Baojiaxians).

Although it is still impossible to judge whether the old man is a ghost or a spirit, one thing is certain, that is, he is not a human being, but a femininity.

And this white-bearded old man in front of me deliberately dragged me to his house, obviously he had other intentions.I knew in my heart that it seemed that there was trouble again tonight.Of course, I couldn't let the old man know that I saw him coming, but I acted as if I didn't know, and made a bow after shaking hands to show politeness.

Then I looked at the other two men, one with a bald head and a fierce look, and the other with a round face and a fat body.What I am most worried about at this time is whether the other two men in front of me are ghosts or people. At this time, I am afraid that these two men are also the same as the old man. If this is the case, then tonight will be in big trouble. Three, what do you want me to do?

Thinking of this, I immediately made a test, and hurriedly reached out to say hello to the bald man: "Hello, brother, thank you for being willing to bring me as a companion."

When the bald head saw that I wanted to shake hands with him, he extended his hand politely, but as soon as I touched his hand, I let go of my raised heart, because from his hand, I felt the anger of a person, that is, temperature.You must know that all lifeless things have no temperature, and it is cold to touch.This is why some people are being watched by ghosts, and they always feel that there is always someone blowing cold air on them behind their backs.

Obviously, the other fat man was with the bald man. Since the bald man is a human being, there is no problem with the fat man.But out of courtesy, I shook his hand too.

The fat man was more enthusiastic. He said that he was two people walking this night. He thought that he would sleep in this stone pavilion tonight. He did not expect to meet this old man, and he was very kind, so he invited the two of them to his house. overnight.If you meet me again now, you will be able to talk to more people when you leave the mountain tomorrow.

I hugged and smiled at him, thinking that you don't know when disaster is imminent.At this time, the old man said with a smile: "We all know each other, so let's go quickly, my house is not far ahead."

At this time, I couldn't easily expose the fact that the old man was a ghost, so I pretended I didn't know anything, nodded and followed the old man.
