I will Bury the Gods Chapter 261: : Ghost Buddha
As the night fell, Lin Shouxi and the others packed their bags and set off towards the boundless mountains that stretched for thousands of miles.
The sound of autumn is bleak.
Walking into the mountain road, Lin Shouxi met an old woodcutter. The woodcutter pushed up some straw hats. He picked up firewood, caught up with him, and asked why.
I saw the old woodcutter knelt on the ground, put his head in his hands, and shouted: "I am old and young, and the weather is too cold recently. Time, please forgive me..."
"We are not monsters." Lin Shouxi said.
He explained carefully for a while before the old woodcutter got up suspiciously and asked, "You...are you Huang Daxian?"
"Huang Daxian, who is it?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Since you are not Huang Daxian, why did you go into this mountain?" The old woodcutter was even more confused when he saw his blank face.
Lin Shouxi pondered for a while, and made up a reason, saying that he came from a family of medicine, and the herbs that blindly save lives are only found in this mountain, so he came here to find them.
"Picking herbs? You are dying!" The old woodcutter listened with surprise and fear.
"Fate? Is Huang Daxian a monster that eats people?" Lin Shouxi asked.
Then the old woodcutter explained to the stranger. He said that this mountain was originally called Tianlong Mountain, but it also had another name, Wanku Mountain. The monster of the King of Ten Thousand Skulls has been taken over. This monster is extremely terrifying. It can call wind and rain, and it can also set off hurricanes and sandstorms. Many monsters in this forest are its minions, especially a yellow fairy. There are countless people killed by it. Someone who dares to collect firewood in the forest after the sun goes down will most likely be killed by this Huang Daxian.
"This Huang Daxian usually likes to dress himself up as a handsome young master. When I saw the young master, I thought I ran into a big monster." said the old woodcutter.
It turns out that there are mountain goblins making trouble... Lin Shouxi knew it well.
He escorted the old man out of Wanku Mountain. When he left, the old man urged him not to go into the mountain. .
"The herbal medicine I'm looking for only blooms and glows at night, and it's no different from weeds during the day. It's a life-saving medicine, and I have to find it no matter what." Lin Shouxi said.
After hearing this, the old man stopped trying to persuade him, and hurriedly left the place of right and wrong with a large bundle of firewood on his back.
After the old man left, Xing Yu put his hands on his hips, looked at the black and vast mountains, couldn't help but sneered, and said: "Huang Daxian? You don't sound like a powerful fairy by the name. My dragon clan is the leader of a hundred scales. I am even more powerful in the demon world." It’s an existence like Taishan Beidou, this time it bumped into me, it’s like a thief ran into a **** dog when he ran into the hospital, let’s go, let’s meet this king of ten thousand skeletons!”
Lin Shouxi and Gong Yu looked at each other, not sure whether this silly dragon girl was praising or scolding herself, so she just followed her footsteps and walked boldly into the mountain.
Then, Xing Yu was greatly disappointed.
They crossed mountains and ridges, and walked for more than half an hour. Xing Yu even opened his throat and yelled in the forest for a long time, but the mountains and forests were quiet, let alone monsters, and they couldn't even meet some ordinary beasts.
However, because there are few people coming to this mountain, there are many precious herbs growing there. When Lin Shouxi saw them, he picked them and put them in the package.
Seeing this, Gong Yu sneered, "Do you really think of yourself as a family of medicine?"
"I have a cauldron of alchemy in my body, so I can barely be considered a doctor?" Lin Shouxi asked back.
"What kind of doctor is a stove that can only heal itself but not others?" Gong Yu said.
"It can also heal people."
"How to cure?"
"Well... If the ancestor is interested, you can ask Chu Chu, if you have to, I can let the ancestor try." Lin Shouxi's eyes are meaningful.
Gong Yu frowned, vaguely guessing something, sneered at the frivolity, and said: "Your cauldron furnace has been repaired for so long, and you got a wife early, but up to now, you haven't even refined the purple fire. Do you want me to be treated too?"
"You..."
Lin Shouxi was indeed hit in the sore spot. Since he built the cauldron, he has often been accompanied by peerless beauties, but the fire of the cauldron has not risen. This world is enough."
Gong Yu wanted to say a few more words, but was interrupted by Xing Yu raising his hand. The little Qinglong couldn't help but said: "What are you yelling about? You are obviously a master and apprentice, but you are fighting with each other every day just like your enemies. , What is the picture?"
"Miss Xing is right." Lin Shouxi nodded in agreement, gave Gong Yu another look, and said, "Look, the little girls are more sensible than you."
"Teaching me again?" Gong Yu didn't back down, she said: "Aren't you and your real master Chu Yingchan fighting with each other day and night?"
"I am in harmony with Chuchu, master and apprentice, when..." Lin Shouxi was taken aback for a moment, realized something, and did not continue.
Gong Yu saw that his ears were slightly red, and was amused by his shy and embarrassed appearance. She couldn't help laughing, and her flowers were trembling. She still didn't let Lin Shouxi go, and continued to ask: "Why didn't you say it? Lips, guns , is your tongue missing something?"
Lin Shouxi glared at her, recalling the past, his cheeks felt a little hot.
At first, he thought that he could deal with the changes calmly, but after getting along with his master for a few days, he realized that Jiang was still old and spicy.
He doesn't understand why Master always teases him like this. If you ask her, she will give many answers, or she will play with the world, or she will say that this is helping Xiaohe test your loyalty, or It may be said that you just want to tease your grandson because you are looking at how beautiful he is, but don't say that you are frivolous as a teacher, it is clearly your apprentice's fault that you are beautiful.
But these answers are somewhat far-fetched.
"What are you thinking?"
Seeing him in a daze, Gong Yu approached him with a smile, and asked with a smile: "Could you remember the time when you were with Chuchu again? Xiaohe also told me something, tsk tsk, this girl Chuchu has changed If this is the case, maybe I have not given enough grains of salt to be a master."
"No." Lin Shouxi thought that her obedience in the afternoon was really a way to delay the attack, so he couldn't help shaking his head, "Master, if you continue like this..."
"Huh?"
"Forget it."
Lin Shouxi found that the punishment he thought was a reward for the master, and he couldn't think of any threatening words, so he simply ignored her, just carried her on his back, buried his head on the road, and let her say anything No response either.
Xing Yu frowned, she couldn't understand the complex communication of human beings, and she didn't bother to delve into it, and she focused on finding the big monster hidden in the mountains.
The night is getting darker.
The mountains and forests are quiet, and the sound of feet stepping on fallen leaves is the only noise. Looking up through the slanting branches, one can see the pale moon, which is full in the sky, extremely bright, so bright that people can't see clearly Potholes.
Xing Yu searched for a long time, but only caught one weasel. She asked the unlucky weasel where their boss was. Throwing it back, the frightened weasel ran up the big tree like a squirrel, and disappeared in a swipe of smoke.
When Xingyu was bored, Lin Shouxi suddenly pressed her shoulder.
"Ah..." Xing Yu thought it was a sneak attack, and exclaimed, seeing that it was Lin Shouxi, he couldn't help asking: "Why are you touching me all of a sudden? It's a surprise..."
"Did you hear any sound?" Lin Shouxi lowered his voice and asked.
"Sound?" Xing Yu was also taken aback.
She listened intently, only to hear the howling of wolves in the distance and the wind like howling thousands of people, but there was no other sound.
"Can't you hear it? The sound of gongs and drums..." Lin Shouxi asked.
"Beating gongs and drums?" Xing Yu was stunned, and said, "How can there be people in this deep mountain and wild forest? Lin Shouxi, don't scare the dragon."
Lin Shouxi didn't speak. He was reciting Gong Yu, and walked forward quickly, following the direction of the voice. Xing Yu frowned and followed behind, but his heart couldn't help beating.
For some reason, she, who has always been lawless, has a trace of fear.
This inexplicable fear made her feel ashamed, she quickly calmed down and followed.
Walking around the long mountain road, there is a valley below. Standing on the rock and looking at the valley bottom, there is a faint light. The source of the light is a dilapidated village.
Lin Shouxi did not lie, this deep mountain and old forest not only has people, but also villages!
The sound of gongs and drums, the sound of clappers, the sound of erhu... It seems that someone is holding a funeral in the village. When the various sounds reach the ears, they are indistinct, but you can still hear the mixed, Yiyi ah Yay singing.
Xing Yu stood up and condensed, his body shrank involuntarily.
The valley is not very wide, and it is surrounded by high mountains on all sides. If there is a slight flash flood or earthquake, the village will be easily destroyed, not to mention that there is still a creepy Huang Daxian living here. And the King of Ten Thousand Skulls.
Lin Shouxi was about to go down the mountain road, but Xingyu grabbed his hand to find out.
"Wait, wait, how about we wait and see?" Xing Yu asked cautiously.
"Are you scared?" Lin Shouxi asked in surprise.
Xing Yu is conceited that she is invincible in the world, but when she was young, when her sister took her to visit the gate of hell, she told her a few ghost stories, which frightened her out of the shadow of her childhood. Her memory was awakened, and Xingyu's hands and feet trembled uncontrollably.
"Afraid? How can I, the mighty Dragon King, be afraid!" Xing Yu yelled a few words to strengthen his courage.
"It's okay to be afraid, you can wait for me here, I'll check the situation first." Lin Shouxi said.
"That's fine, the deity will help you as the queen." Xing Yu leaned towards Gongyu.
"I'll go with you." Gong Yu looked at Lin Shouxi and said.
"You don't have a cultivation base, so you won't be able to help if you go there." Lin Shouxi said.
"The cultivation base is gone, but at least the knowledge is still there. Don't worry, I have a measure." Gong Yu said, "What? Because you have rich experience in voyeurism, you don't need to help the teacher?"
At this moment, there is no enchanting and charming expression on the cheeks of this Taoist fairy, even if she is teasing, she still speaks coldly and seriously, like a well-trained killer.
Lin Shouxi nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Gong Yu was about to be snatched away, Xing Yu hurriedly followed, and whispered: "After thinking about it carefully, I still think it's better to go with you..."
Down the hillside and cross the semi-dry stream to reach the village.
Looking closer, this village is far more dilapidated than imagined. The walls here are all earthen walls, which have been disintegrated by green grass. If you push them with your hands, they will collapse. The houses here are also dilapidated, and some are not. Some of the doors have no roof, and the pillars supporting the houses are either dilapidated or crumbling, and the furniture placed inside is covered with cobwebs. The spiders here are black and big, and they seem to be eaten by humans.
Where is this village? It is clearly a site that has been abandoned for many years. Even if it once prospered, it is unknown how many years ago it was.
I can't imagine how people can live in this kind of place...
Crossing down, Xing Yu walked slowly through the weed-covered path. Suddenly, she saw a dark object. Because it was a person lying down, she was startled. She took a closer look. It turned out to be a stone lion. She poked her head out and went around, but she felt even more creepy. This stone lion seemed to have been tortured. The curly hair was shaved off, the eyes were hollow, and the face was rotten. Only the mouth was intact, showing A weird smile.
What scares her even more is that behind the stone lion, there is something staring at her.
Bold up her courage, she went closer to have a look, and a fox sprang out from behind the stone lion, and fled into the bushes beside it.
Xing Yu had no time to quarrel with these little animals that frightened her, and the clear and bright cymbals suddenly sounded, making her spine stiff.
He raised his head, and behind the high courtyard wall in front of him, there was obviously a fire.
Lin Shouxi and Gong Yu have already walked over.
The courtyard wall is very high, but it has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is covered with cracks. Through the cracks, you can see the scene behind the courtyard wall.
Lin Shouxi stood behind a crack, his eyes pressed against the wall, concentrating on watching, while Gong Yu was beside him, leaning down, looking closer to the lower crack.
When the two of them looked towards the yard, their bodies froze unconsciously as if they saw something terrifying.
When Xingyu saw this, she became even more frightened. She said in her heart, "Guanshiyin Bodhisattva blesses you with blessings and infinite heavens, and your son does not confuse your words and powers." Then she found a crack, boldly approached it, and looked over.
She was shocked too.
People.
A dense crowd of people.
This courtyard, which does not look spacious, is full of people. These people are all dressed in official-style clothes, holding candles in their hands, sitting shoulder to shoulder, hip to hip, sitting upright and meticulous. , staring straight ahead, so focused that he wanted to pull his eyeballs out.
In front is a stage.
This stage is very large, occupying half of the yard. The stage is very spacious and bright. It is a newly built three-sided viewing stage. The sounds of gongs, drums, cymbals, erhu, and suona come from here. They are not holding any funeral or wedding. , just... singing.
The spectators in the audience looked at the big stage attentively, crying sometimes, laughing sometimes, in uniform.
The strangest thing was that there was no one on the stage at all.
What the **** are they looking at? !
Xing Yu felt creepy.
When she was young, the ghost stories told by the sister in red came into her mind like ghosts, like knives cutting swords, making her teeth tremble. She is the daughter of a powerful dragon king, but no matter how powerful a life is, in the face of When unknown, there will always be instinctive fear.
There are things on the stage, dirty things, these people can see them, but I can't see them!
The sound of playing music comes from the grass troupe around the stage. They are constantly ringing, and they are loud and clear in the silent night. The rain's claws can't help but dug into the earth wall. She turned her head, looked at Lin Shouxi, and pulled He sleeved his sleeves and asked in a very soft voice: "Can you see it?"
Lin Shouxi shook his head.
"What about you?" She looked at Gong Yu again.
Gong Yu also shook his head.
"Then what are they looking at, are they crazy?"
Xing Yu wished he could manifest his real body directly, and crashed into it, smashing this strange scene to pieces.
Lin Shouxi looked at Gong Yu with a questioning look.
Gong Yu unwrapped the package, took out a candle, and signaled him to light it.
Everyone in the yard is holding a red candle, perhaps it is the key.
Lin Shouxi condensed his true energy and touched the wick of the candle. The wick was quickly burned. He held the candle and looked at the stage again, but he still saw nothing.
This is simply an empty stage, and the people sitting below are either lunatics or not human at all!
Just as Lin Shouxi was about to climb over the courtyard wall to find out, the half-squatting Gong Yu grabbed his wrist.
"Meditate, try to meditate." Gong Yu said.
Lin Shouxi showed a puzzled look.
"What are you meditating on?" Xing Yu asked directly.
"There may indeed be something on this stage, but there is no way to see it with the naked eye." Gong Yu thought for a while, and suddenly asked a seemingly insignificant question: "You should know the myth, such as Heng'e Flying to the Moon , Dayi shot the sun and these."
The two nodded.
"These myths have no real source, but everyone in the world knows it, because it is a work, a work created by the subconscious of people all over the world. This kind of organized collective imagination is powerful. If this power If it is strong enough, the myth may even become a direct history.” Gong Yu explained seriously, she paused, looked at Lin Shouxi, and said, “You know the Twilight Sea, right? It’s a sea of spirits. The field created by meditation is the pinnacle of collective imagination.”
Lin Shouxi was at a loss at first, and then he thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he realized: "You mean, there is indeed no one on this stage, but the audience below imagined a scene together?"
Gong Yu nodded.
Xing Yu was taken aback when he heard that, "This...how is this possible..."
When she was a child, she did hear a story told by her elder sister about a little girl who sold candles. She couldn’t sell a single candle, and she lit candles to keep warm when she was about to freeze to death. When the last candle was extinguished, Through the white smoke of the birds, she saw the **** smiling at her. That night, all the people who froze to death saw the same scene.
Xing Yu didn't take it seriously at the time, but now that he thinks about it, he feels a little bit of terror.
Lin Shouxi has obeyed the instructions of his master, holding a candle, staring at the stage meticulously, his consciousness penetrated into the sound of gongs and drums, humming and trembling non-stop.
Lin Shouxi felt like he was walking in a dark corridor. After walking for an unknown amount of time, he finally saw the light. He rushed out like a head out of the water~IndoMTL.com~ With a loud bang, the picture of the yard reappeared. clear.
On the stage, there were a few more ghost figures.
It was a play, the long-sleeved dancing girl was wiping her tears, and the handsome white-faced boy was pitying himself. They came to the temple holding hands, bowed down to the big Buddha, and prayed for marriage, but where is this? The Buddha is clearly a pink fleshy mountain full of folds and granulation, almost indistinguishable from the 'thousand-armed-thousand-eyed' Buddha seen in Niechi.
When gazing at the Buddha, Lin Shouxi also felt the gaze.
Gaze from the back of the head.
Behind this drama condensed by collective consciousness, something is staring at the back of his neck!
Lin Shouxi's heart trembled, and he was about to cut off his consciousness, but before he could do anything, a woman's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and his fragile imagination was invaded by noise, and he collapsed as quickly as he woke up from a dream.
The voice is from Gongyu.
When Lin Shouxi was holding the candle, he had already lost his mind, a few drops of wax oil dripped, Gong Yu couldn't dodge it, and a few drops of red wax dripped on his snow-white shoulders and wrists, as bright as plum blossoms.
The soft whisper disturbed the whole dream.
The people in the yard also woke up.
They turned around one after another, looking at the uninvited guest behind the courtyard wall.
It was only then that Xing Yu discovered that these people had no eyes at all, and their eyeballs had already been cut off, leaving only a hollow with withered flesh and blood.
Not only that, but they are not all human.
Among them was a monster with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks wrapped in a robe. With a sharp mouth, he said in a sharp and thin tone like an opera: "Dare to disturb the Golden Buddha, the crime is unforgivable, and you will die—"
