Chapter seven hundred and thirty nine
But when we looked back, it was wrong. Before we saw the poisonous meat, we had obviously rested for two hours. From the time we saw the poisonous meat to now, it took about half an hour. Although there has been danger in the past half an hour, Liu Shangang would not be so tired. Seeing his face hanging down, he seemed to be exhausted.
I stood up and tried to move my arms. The soreness on my shoulders had been taken away by the wind. The back of my neck was still a little numb and swelling, but it no longer affected my normal movement.
After seeing Liu Shangang's exhausted look, I looked carefully at Liang Houzai and Senior Brother Feng. They were also tired, no, that was not tired, but an old attitude. When the two of them stared at the compass, they were hunched over and their hands were hanging weakly, looking old.
Not only them, Dawei is also in that way now, and Liu Daxi and Mao Xiaoxi lying on the ground are the same. They are as if they are stuck to the ground, with extremely tired faces on their faces, as if they never think about it anymore.
I immediately walked up, grabbed Liu Daxi's arm, and pulled him up from the ground. Liu Daxi was pulled like this and seemed very impatient. He looked at me with a very disgusting look, but he didn't say a word. He was too lazy to speak.
I didn't talk nonsense to him, so I raised my hand and slapped it hard on his face.
Liu Daxi suddenly got me up, and was stunned at first, then woke up. I pushed him away, pulled Mao Xiaoxi up, and still woke up with a slap.
The slap on my side also woke up the others. Liu Shangang looked at me blankly and asked me with a puzzled look: "Brother Dao, what are you doing? Why are you suddenly hitting someone?"
I said, "Did you feel very tired just now?"
Liu Shangang: "After you said that... I was really tired just now. I seemed to want to do nothing, just want to lie down and sleep for a while."
I frowned and said, "Do you want to sleep for a while? Look at what you were like just now, you obviously want to fall asleep forever, so it's best not to get up again. What do you think now?"
Liu Shangang pointed at Mao Xiaoxi and Liu Daxi: "I don't know why, but when I saw you slapped them twice, I suddenly felt full of energy."
I looked at Liang Houzai again, and Liang Houzai also looked at me. He and Senior Brother Feng also returned to normal, and their waists and backs stood up as usual.
I said to Liang Houzai: "We still have a blood curse on our bodies, be careful."
Liang Houzai nodded first, then quickly walked to the place where I had just lying, and stood there and started to be stunned.
I had thought this was a very wide tomb chamber, but I was wrong. This was not a tomb chamber, but a long narrow tomb passage covered with reliefs. The reason why I thought it was wide was just an illusion brought to me by the sound of the whistling wind.
Liang Houzai looked at the direction where the wind came for a while, then turned around and asked me: "Why are you the only one who is awake?"
I said, "Just just now, I sealed up five senses in order to restore my energy."
Liang Houzai shook his head: "No, it's not the reason."
While speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and turned the spell seal on his forearm towards the lower wind vent. I saw that the light on the spell seal became much darker. Then, Liang Houzai turned the spell seal towards the upper wind vent. The spell seal was like a torch blown by the wind, and the light on it immediately became brighter.
Liang Houzai turned to me and pointed his finger at the direction that the wind blew: "Just now, only the mantra on your body was facing this direction, and the mantras on others were all aiming in the opposite direction. I understand, no wonder your first generation ancestor said that the blood mantra is the key to finding the other side of the shore. If you walk against the wind, you should be able to find those flowers."
Senior Brother Feng picked up the compass, looked at the direction of the wind for a while, and asked Houzai with doubts: "But from the Feng Shui plate, that direction should be very dangerous."
I nodded and said to Senior Brother Feng: "Since there is such an evil god hidden at the bottom of the tomb, it seems normal to be dangerous. Well, I believe Houzai's judgment."
Senior Brother Feng put away the compass: "Then keep moving forward. I think this is not a place to stay for a long time."
After he finished speaking, I began to call everyone to move forward. Just now, Liu Daxi and Mao Xiaoxi removed the ropes on their bodies in order to facilitate their actions. Liu Shangang could only give them a new one and help Mao Xiaoxi treat the wound.
After they had tossed over, I felt that Mao Xiaoxi's face began to decline again. I didn't dare to delay any more and quickly urged everyone to set off.
Although the wind in the tomb passage was strong, it was far from the intensity of the battlefield. We walked forward against the wind. Liang Houzai from time to time instructed the people behind us to let the curse seal on his hands be towards the wind.
At the beginning, we could see a small amount of dead grass on the wall of the tomb passage. It was not a grass at all, but the tentacles after the poisonous flesh was dried up. These dried tentacles all emerged from the cracks on the wall. However, as they went deeper, the gaps on the wall gradually decreased until the cracks disappeared and the dry tentacles did not appear again.
The Fengdao has no flesh, and the information left by the First Ancestor is also concise enough. If it weren't for entering this Fengdao, who would have known what this means?
About twenty minutes later, I saw a layer of faint red light coming out of the depths of the tomb passage. Along with the red light, there was also a clear yin energy.
I didn't make the wrong word, either strong or clear. Although the yin energy is very strong, it is very peaceful, like a pool of clear and cold lake water, with no ripples in the water, and it is as quiet as a sleeping girl, making people unable to bear to wake her up.
Liang Houzai's voice came from behind me: "What a strange Yin Qi field."
I knew he was talking to me, so I replied: "The red shore flower may be right ahead, be careful and pay attention to the surrounding situation."
Liang Houzai didn't say anything anymore and walked silently behind him.
The closer we get to the red light deep in the tomb passage, the spell seal on our arms seemed to have been summoned, and the light emitted became brighter. Strangely, when it became brighter before, the pain on our arms would become heavier as the brightness increased. However, now, the light on the spell seal is extremely bright, but the pain on our arms has disappeared.
Not only does the pain disappear, but it also has a cool and comfortable feeling.
After another ten minutes of trek, we finally crossed the wind-covered area and arrived at a long and narrow flower gallery.
There were bright red flowers everywhere, and the petals of those flowers emitted a stunning red light, which made the entire space dyed a layer of blood, and even the beam of the flashlight was reflected in a bright red.
There was a strange fragrance in the air, which was like a whitewashed smell of blood. I knew it was blood, but when it penetrated into my breath, it felt like a jasmine lightness.
Liang Houzai said to me: "This is the real red spider flower."
I couldn't help but frown: "The real red spider flower?"
Is there any fake one in the other shore flower?
Houzai nodded and said, "Do you remember the Huangquan Road that Huang Daxian set up in Zhujia Village, Henan? The roadside is covered with red shore flowers, but the red shore flowers and these flowers we see now are actually not the same thing."
Indeed, although the shape of Wong Tai Sin's red shore flowers is almost exactly the same as the flowers here, those flowers will not shine and do not have a bloody fragrance.
Liang Houzai looked at the curse seal on his arm, frowned again, and said to me with some uncertainty: "But we are not sure now, whether what we see and smell now is an illusion."
The pain on the arm is still continuing, it should not be an hallucination.
To be on the safe side, I still memorized the Three Corpse Art several times, but I didn’t feel that my mind became clearer and the situation around me did not change at all.
I turned around and looked at Senior Brother Feng and the others. At this time, Senior Brother Feng was holding a Feng Shui plate with one hand and a dagger with the other, standing in front of the flowers very quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
I shouted to Senior Brother Feng: "Senior Brother?"
Senior Brother Feng then raised his head and looked at me. He waved to me: "Stop for a moment."
After saying this briefly, he became stunned at the blood-red ones again. Seeing that his eyes were not dissipated, I didn't ask any more questions.
Liang Houzai walked up to me: "Brother Dao, have you ever thought about it? Why can the curse seals on our bodies resonate with the red spider flower?"
I said, "Because the breath on the stamen and the breath on the mantra seal are the same. If I guess correctly, some of the yellow sand on the other side of the battlefield should have been soaked in the juice of the other side of the flower. It is because we touched the sand that had been soaked in the flower juice that we had the mantra seal on our body."
Liang Houzai stared at me with wide eyes: "That's right? I just think these curse seals are closely related to the red spider flower, but I didn't expect it to be so detailed."
I glanced at him and said, "It's not that I think it carefully. In the Shuzheng lineage, there is a formation similar to the sealing array, called the Great Ban Heart-Stripping Array. When setting up this array, you put thirty-four cans of Nether Pool water in the array, soak the yellow mud with this water. After the mud is dried, divide them into eight parts, wrap them with fennel leaves, and place them in eight directions corresponding to the Eight Trigrams. Those who accidentally enter the Great Banner will have hallucinations and will never go out. The most powerful thing about this array is that it cannot be broken at all. The Nether Pool water is the array eye, and the dry mud wrapped with fennel leaves is the array foot. However, whether it is destroyed by the array eye or the array foot, the large array is still effective. Moreover, if you accidentally get stuck in the dry mud, the illusion will become more difficult to break."
Liang Houzai: "In other words, that formation was created by your first generation after you saw the arrangement of this tomb."
"It must be like this," I nodded: "To put it, I shouldn't have described the arrangement method of the large cover array, but no one has arranged this array for thousands of years, because the Nether Pond Water necessary for the formation has long disappeared from this world. I now suspect that the so-called Nether Pond Water may be the juice of the other side of the shore."
At this time, Liu Shangang interrupted: "Then why don't you collect some of them quickly?"
Liang Houzai and I shook our heads at the same time. Liang Houzai sighed, and I said to Liu Shangang: "It's too late, these red spider flowers are withering."
Liu Shangang looked at the blood red around him, looking puzzled: "Why didn't I see it?"
I said, "The Qi field above is getting weaker. Look at the curse seal on your arm, it is also getting darker."
Liu Shangang immediately rolled up his sleeves, and Liang Houzai followed my words: "The Buddhist scriptures say that the flowers on the other side have bloomed for a thousand years, and the leaves have fallen for a thousand years, and the flowers and leaves will never be seen. Love is not caused by cause and effect, and fate is doomed to life and death. After this withering, it will take another thousand years before these flowers will bloom."
I nodded and didn't say anything.
In fact, when Liang Houzai talked about the true flowers of the other side, I was thinking about a question. Senior Brother Zhuang said that women cannot enter this tomb, which is probably a lie to me.
The first generation ancestor came in, and not only came in, but also escaped unscrupulously, and brought the witchcraft here out, which led to the original magic inheritance of the Shuzheng lineage.
The First Ancestor is a woman, she can come in, but Xian'er and Luo Fei cannot. If they come in, I have to wait outside. In other words, they and I cannot walk together.
In the classics of Jihunzhuang, there is another alias for the red shore flower, called "Dumpling Dust Flower", which means to break the relationship between the world. It is said that when the wandering soul smells its fragrance, they can forget everything in their lifetime and fall into the underworld. Living people smell this fragrance of flowers, it is nothing, but if the person who smells the fragrance of flowers, they will break the relationship between them and will never meet each other in life.
