Chapter 28 Dangerous Strings (4)
As Zihu said, there really is a sacrificial altar on the top of the mountain. I don’t know what year it was left. It is a little worn out, but the carved bronze tripod is still there, and the old and simple style is still there.
At that time, the “color” of the sky was already dark, and there was a disc-like bright moon in the sky, and the moon bloomed like frost, quietly scattered on the bluestone slab of the altar, where it was bright like a mirror, which reminds me of how many wizards there are. Taoists worshipped the gods here.
For some reason, this dilapidated altar is unpredictably sacred. The surrounding mountains and tens of thousands of peaks are undulating, everything is quiet, looking up at the secluded sky, looking down at the vast earth, everyone can’t help but awe and dare not laugh. speak.
Zihu also restrained his usual irregularities. He bowed his head for a while, not knowing what he was thinking about. After a long while, he suddenly ordered: “Go, start from the north, and light up the eight ever bright lights in turn.”
There are eight stone pillars as high as one person around the altar, filled with secret grease, and rubbed the wick of the thick arm, it must be the “eternal lamp” in her mouth.
Yu Sifeng lit the torch, starting from the true north, staggering left and right, lighting the eight ever-bright lights. The eight lamps correspond to the eight directions, which is the position of the gossip, so you can’t take a wrong step.
Once the ever-bright lamp burned, a half-person-high flame appeared immediately in the air. Its “color” was like blue, curled and twisted, reflecting a faint green shadow on everyone’s face.
The purple fox said softly: “There is a pool of clean water behind the altar, so I will sprinkle this in it, and all go to cleanse and change clothes.”
She pointed to the huge bronze cauldron in front of her with her pointed mouth. There were no flowers, birds, or beasts carved on the cauldron, but weird faces were carved on all sides and corners, like crying like laughing, like crazy like crazy, and it’s hairy. Horrified. The incense ash left over from an unknown number of years gathered in the cauldron, and its “color” was as white as snow. Xuanji looked back at the three teenagers. It was obvious that she could only be the first to wash and change clothes.
She grabbed a handful of incense ash and transferred it to the altar. Sure enough, there was a small pool of water, the depth of which was unknown. However, the top of the mountain was so cold that a thin layer of ice formed on the pool, and it was really scary to go down for a bath.
She had to use a sword to cut a hole in the ice, scatter the incense ashes, and immediately took off her clothes, closed her eyes, and jumped down as if she was dead.
In a cold day, taking a bath in freezing water is tantamount to self-abuse. Obviously, four people are not used to this method of body cleaning. After washing, everyone’s face was flushed with cold and shivered. Only barely able to keep out the cold.
“Is everything all right?”
Zihu asked, and suddenly his front paws moved forward, and he whispered: “To do this kind of thing, you have to become a human figure. No way, try it.”
Everyone saw her towering back and gradually stretched out. The sharp claws and dense fur disappeared quickly. The purple fox on the stage suddenly stood up, her hair pouring down, her body was wearing purple clothes, but the fox on top of her head The ears and tail could not be retracted anyway.
“Oh… that **** snake monster… the remaining poison hasn’t been cleaned up until now…” She “touched” her ear bitterly.
On weekdays, when she wants to become a human form, she rolls on the spot and breaks away from her original body. It is the first time that everyone sees her real body change, and they can’t help being a little surprised. The purple fox suddenly turned his head, his face was eighth similar to that of the purple-clothed beauty, but his mouth had sharp fangs, and his pupils were green like wild beasts. In the desolate moon’s “color”, it seemed to be three-point hideous, four-point beastly. terror.
“Give me the package.” She muttered and stretched out her hand. The “hair” on her hand was not removed, it was clearly the claws of a beast, and her nails were more than three inches long.
Xuanji quickly handed her the package. Purple Fox ran out to buy some things by himself in Golmud, mysteriously not letting them look at it, and packed it in a package, no one knew what was inside. Seeing that she shook the package open, there were five big incense sticks of the size of a small arm, half a person long, and five dark candles. I have seen this thing Xuanji, and I heard from Master that it is a secret private system. A kind of joss stick, which contains cinnabar and black dog blood, and is mixed with many unheard of materials. It is only used for major sacrifices. Even the master does not know what it is.
Just thinking about it, the purple fox stuffed the big incense and candles, “Go and light the incense and candles, and then bring them to me.”
Xuanji only felt that the candle’s tentacles were a bit rough, and when she looked down, she didn’t know when she was engraved on it. It was her birthday when Bingyou Yihai Gengyinzi. She was slightly startled, and suddenly remembered that the purple fox in Gaoshi Mountain had said that the birth date of a mortal was transparent in her eyes, and she could see through it at a glance. She would know her birth date, and it would be no surprise to think about it.
After lighting the incense and the candles, the purple fox “inserted” the big incense into the bronze cauldron, then opened the candles on the ground in a circle, whispering: “When the incense burns out, you must return to the altar. So. We have to move fast. No one can move this candle. As long as it goes out, we will be bounced back by Fu Zhou Shan and suffer severe damage.”
I want to come to the place where Buzhou Mountain is not in the Yang Room. If the living people like them want to go in, there will be no trace of them in the Yang Room, which will inevitably cause an imbalance, so this candle is to replace them in the life of the Yang Room. Once it is extinguished, the gods guarding Buzhou Mountain will immediately notice and drive them out of Buzhou Mountain.
Xuanji couldn’t help asking: “You… didn’t you say that you grew up playing in Zhoushan? Why do you want to order this?”
Zihu shouted: “I’m asking if there are any of these at the moment! I have already left Bu Zhoushan for a long time, and I can only go in again like you, where is the exception!”
Xuanji yelled at her and had to shut up.
The purple fox said again: “The moon is in the middle of the sky, the hour has come, and I will begin to worship. None of you are allowed to speak.”
After that, she floated up, her long hair fluttered, her feet were floating towards the bright light of the north, her sleeves suddenly unfolded, like a phoenix with open wings, and she raised her head and screamed like weeping. . The flame seemed to be infected and throbbed tremblingly.
The four of them were sitting in a circle in silence, with a black candle in front of them that engraved their birthday. Hearing the long and clear whistling of the purple fox, he couldn’t tell whether it was singing or the howling of wild beasts. The bright lights from all directions scorched and jumped, and the shadows on the ground stretched out in all directions. There seemed to be dark clouds reunited on the top of the sky, covering the moon like an ice wheel. The wind gusts, mixed with inexplicable howling ghosts and wolves, which was frightening.
The purple fox stopped suddenly, sat cross-legged steadily in the middle, his hands were imprinted, and his forehead was sweaty. The left and right hands suddenly separated, one finger to the sky, the other to the finger, and muttered: “The chariot of spirit.”
As soon as the voice fell, I saw a flash of white light everywhere, and a silver “color” lightning struck from the top of the sky, as if the entire sky was divided into two, and the roar was deafening.
She shook her body slightly, as if she couldn’t bear it, her face suddenly turned pale, but she clenched her teeth, put her hands together, and said: “Jie Xuanyun!”
The dark clouds at the top of the sky seemed to be stirred by a huge hand, rapidly rotating and fluctuating, almost tearing the entire sky apart. When everyone saw this vision, they had already forgotten to speak, and they were all dumbfounded. The purple fox gasped and couldn’t hold it anymore, limp on the ground.
“Ah…” Xuanji opened her mouth and suddenly remembered that she had told her not to speak, so she hurriedly got up to help.
Just listen to the huge thunder from the thorn on the top of the head, a flower suddenly appeared in front of him, and there were thousands of lightning strikes on this small altar at the same time. She was taken aback, and she forgot to support the purple fox, and involuntarily let go of her hand.
“The door, the door is open…” Zihu struggled to sit up, and whispered: “Go… to the center of the station… Let’s go… Bu Zhoushan.”
Those lightnings didn’t even go away, stabbing and stabbing the ground between the sky and the earth, like a huge cage, wrapping up the altar, unable to get out or in.
Xuanji saw Yu Sifeng and the others staring in a daze, and couldn’t help pulling his sleeves, “Let’s go! Linglong is waiting!”
They were about to get up, only to hear someone screaming from behind: “Don’t go!”
Everyone was taken aback, and hurriedly turned their heads, only to see three people standing side by side outside the lightning cage. The sword stopped in the air. It was actually Chu Lei, Chu Yinghong and Elder Heyang. Each of them was sweating and out of breath, trying to come here desperately.
Xuan Ji was stunned for a while before she said, “Daddy…Master…how do you…”
The altar was shrouded in lightning, and the three of them couldn’t get close at all, they could only stop outside with the sword. Chu Lei sternly said: “No one is allowed to go to Zhoushan! Have you heard?! Give me all back!”
How can I not go! They came here with great difficulty, seeing that they could rescue Linglong and the second brother back, how could they give up!
Xuanji was about to argue, and Zhong Minyan behind him suddenly said: “Please forgive the disciples for being unsatisfactory. Master’s fateful disciple can’t accept it! We will definitely go to Zhoushan to rescue Linglong! Just ask Master and Uncle to rest assured!”
Why does he speak like this! Xuanji was shocked. Although Zhong Minyan is usually foolish, he is always obedient in front of his father and dare not be disrespectful. The tone of today’s speech is definitely not like his usual!
Chu Lei was really furious, and said sensibly: “You will die if you go! Do you think there are not enough people?”
Zhong Minyan said loudly: “Master, don’t underestimate the apprentices! The disciples are confident and retreat.”
Chu Lei was so angry that he couldn’t say a word. Chu Yinghong on the side hurriedly said: “Minyan, Xuanji! It’s not that you are underestimated! But that place does not belong to the Yangjian, it is very dangerous, I am afraid that there will be no return! Xuanji, parents have lost Linglong, you have the heart to let They lose you again?”
Xuanji’s heart trembled, but she was speechless.
Zhong Minyan is still arguing: “Senior uncle needn’t persuade! We are determined to go! This time we will definitely be able to rescue the second senior brother and Linglong!”
Chu Lei was furious, waved his sleeves, and shouted: “Zhong Minyan! You want to go, yes! You will no longer be a Shaoyang disciple when you go! You will be kicked out of the teacher from today! This is your willfulness. “The price of recklessness!”
Drive out of the division! Everyone was shocked to lose their “lust”, this is the most serious punishment! Xuanji immediately shouted: “Daddy! How can you…”
“Don’t call me daddy! I don’t have a daughter like you!”
Xuanji was blocked by him in a sigh of relief, painful, and tears gushing out of her eyes.
Zhong Minyan’s face was pale, and he was stunned for a while, only to hear the purple fox anxiously beside him: “Hurry up! The door is about to close!”
He was shocked all over, and suddenly squatted to the ground, knocked his head three times to Chu Lei at Lingkong, and said with a trembling: “The disciple is not Shao! Even if he is expelled from the teacher’s school, I will find Linglong! I dare not ask the master to take his life back, but The disciple… can’t repay the teacher’s kindness, and will never feel at ease for life!”
After that, he stood up boldly, turned his face and walked towards the center of the stage. With a flash of white light, he disappeared instantly.
“Min Yan!” the three people in the air couldn’t help but exclaim.
Xuanji looked at Chu Lei, and then at the center of the altar, finally gritted her teeth and walked over.
The white light flashed a few more times, and Yu Sifeng and the others walked in, only the purple fox was left. They raised their heads and looked at the pale three people in the sky, and said: “You immortals, really ruthless! Who are they for? Are you so desperate?!”
After talking about his body shape, he turned to the center of the stage. In the next instant, the roar of lightning and white light disappeared, leaving only the bronze cauldron. There were five huge incense sticks in the cauldron. The bright candles and the candlelight flickered, as if nothing had happened just now.
