Bu Tian Gang

Going forward and "walking" out of this chaotic jungle, you can "see" a small road. The road is the simplest dirt road in the countryside, more like it has been trampled thousands of times by humans. It is muddy and difficult to navigate, but the winter solstice is not too much Deep feeling, after all, he has no physical body now. If he moves forward and has a wider field of vision, he can "see" the smoke of the village in the distance, and there is an abrupt and conspicuous stockade nearby.

The stockade stood by the water, just across the water from those villages, but the villagers on the other side of the water were careful to draw water by the river, and did not dare to cross the thunder pond.

The winter solstice "looked" a few times in a trance, then put his eyes on the house in front of him, and floated into the house according to his own mind.

Light dimmed.

The dark-skinned young man knelt before a middle-aged man and listened to the teaching.

They communicated in the local language. Naturally, the winter solstice "listened" and didn't understand, so he turned to "look" at the surrounding furnishings.

There are all kinds of things that can be called weird. There are skeletons and animal skulls of different sizes hanging on the wall, with messy talismans attached to them, and ghost talismans similar to runes are painted. It is not a talisman of the Chinese lineage. , Tall, short, fat and thin. Although I don't know what's inside, it will inexplicably cause people to have bad associations.

Anyway, I couldn't understand what they said, so I didn't stay much in the winter solstice, and floated from the passage behind the door to another room.

Equally dark.

The furnishings are similar.

The difference is that there are more heads on the messy table.

The human head, which was half-hidden in the darkness, was still moving like a living person.

There was still a mass of trembling flesh on the ground, but upon closer inspection it was a fat person. She was wiping the floor with a rag in her hand.

At this time, the head actually spoke.

"Ugly woman, I'm sick of seeing you, get out!"

The woman's plump body trembled, as if she wanted to get up, but in the end she knelt on the ground and shivered.

Before the winter solstice approached, the middle-aged man from the front room came in.

The woman finally got the amnesty at the other party's order, and she rolled back, and the middle-aged man began to communicate with the head, still speaking very fast, after a while, the two seemed to be talking unpleasantly, and the head began to express anger. The middle-aged man snorted in a high-pitched tone of scolding, but did not continue arguing with him, and instead walked towards the back of the room.

At this time, Che Bai's voice no longer rang in his ears. Intuitively, Dongzhi felt that he wanted to follow the middle-aged man instead of staying here, so he followed closely behind the middle-aged man, crossing a In the corridor, I came to a small house with no light at all.

He understands the spell that Che Bai uses on him. It's a bit like a "clairvoyant". Following the breath of the head descendant who lowered his head, he directly traces it to the family's lair, so he is now equivalent to a cloud of nothingness. The consciousness has no entity, nor is it a soul.

This kind of spell that traces the origin of thousands of miles is naturally extremely powerful. Although the winter solstice has been unable to identify who is the one who lowered his head because of the language barrier, he has already obtained enough information.

In the hut, the middle-aged man who used to be arrogant and calm in front of the young people and the heads of people, turned into a little sheep in a blink of an eye. , his eyes were slightly closed, but the middle-aged man didn't even dare to lift his head, he whispered softly, his forehead touching the ground, for fear of disturbing the other party.

Most of the time, middle-aged people are talking, and the person in the dark should occasionally answer a sentence or two. His tone is very strange. His voice seems to be coming from his throat, and it seems to be coming from a distant void. There is an invisible barrier that prevents the winter solstice from continuing.

But the winter solstice was not reconciled. He had a hunch that this person must be a very important person, perhaps related to the descendant of the head, or even the legendary demon, so he tried his best to use his consciousness to break through the barrier and get closer. Observe that man.

That layer of barrier was like plasticine with excellent elasticity. He tried his best to move forward, but he was always thrown out again, but after repeated defeats in the winter solstice, he recited the Bright Light Mantra silently in his heart, and finally tore a hole in the barrier, and "the whole person" fluttered. go in.

The man suddenly opened his eyes!

Dongzhi looked at the other party's eyes and looked straight at himself, and couldn't help but be surprised, secretly thinking that the other party might have discovered him.

At this time, he had already seen the man's face clearly, but it was not the bewitching face he had seen in his dream, but an ordinary middle-aged face with traces of the well-maintained past. But now this face is blue and black, like a ghost, and it looks familiar.

Then he heard the man laugh grimly, speaking Chinese that he could understand.

"Look, you brought guests in, and you don't even know how to entertain them!"

The middle-aged man looked up and looked around blankly, obviously not seeing the existence of the winter solstice.

The man in the dark stretched out a hand and pointed towards the winter solstice.

"Where is he."

During the winter solstice, the middle-aged man "hit" the man in the dark directly before he was ordered to attack.

He was extremely fast and castrated rapidly. At that moment, he quickly silently recited the thunder-inducing spell, thinking that if his consciousness could also induce thunder, it would be time for a thunderstorm to kill this person, but at this moment, his ear Suddenly there was a sneer.

The laughter was more gloomy than the previous laughter, icy cold without a trace of popularity, as if the snow and ice covering the rotting corpses in the depths of the virgin forest on a winter night was pouring down on the head, piercing the bones, and the winter solstice felt that his "eardrum" trembled and hurt. , "Body" also seems to be blocked by something. He is so far away from the other party, but he can no longer move forward. He guessed that his body may react with it, but at the moment he can't care so much. He repeats it over and over again. The thunder spell, and the gloomy laughter never stopped, echoing in all directions, the ghosts lingering, and getting closer and closer.

"You are so bold, I didn't go to you, but you came to me, why don't you just stay!"

The last word was like spit out from his mouth to his ear, like a hammer hitting his heart, the consciousness of the winter solstice was blurred and sour for a while, and he couldn't chant the thunderbolt anymore, and he was almost dragged away like this.

But soon, Che Bai's voice sounded from above.

"Om!"

Morning bells and twilight drums, Sanskrit sounds wash away the dust, all the turbid air is swept away, the mind is greatly shaken, and it returns to clarity from chaos!

This is the first-character mantra in the six-character Great Ming Mantra. It is said that Guanyin Bodhisattva conferred this mantra on mortals, so that when mortals were practicing asceticism in the world, they could cleanse their minds and suppress the sound of demons. Damage, so that all diseases are eliminated, karmic obstacles are quiet, and since then the evil spirits have all retreated.

The winter solstice clearly saw the man's complexion change, and the pressure that imprisoned him was immediately cleared.

"It turned out to be a rescue soldier, no wonder there is no fear!"

The man sneered again, but the Winter Solstice had no time to listen. His consciousness was quickly pulled back by a force, escaped the house, the stockade, and withdrew from the layers of dense forest.

The body of the winter solstice shuddered violently, and blood overflowed from the corner of the mouth, but this time it was not black, but normal bright red blood.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw Long Shen and Che Bai sitting opposite.

"Department of the car?"

Che Bai just opened his eyes and looked at him: "How do you feel?"

Winter Solstice said: "My chest is a little sore."

Che Bai said: "This is normal, you just fought against the demon, even if the demon has not been fully resurrected, it is also a legendary demon, you only had a ray of consciousness just now, and you can't even call it a soul, so you rashly used lightning. The curse will not attract thunder at all, and will only cause fire in the end."

Winter Solstice said ashamed: "I was reckless, thank the car bureau for rescuing me."

Che Bai said: "You're not wrong. I didn't tell you what to do just now. I just wanted to sneak up on the demon when it was unexpected. Otherwise, if you had been mentally prepared, he would have noticed the vigilance. It's just..."

He sighed: "My strength is far less than before, and in the end I still haven't been able to resolve your downfall, so I can only temporarily suppress it so that you don't have an attack for a period of time, and it can cure the symptoms but not the root cause. If you want to solve this problem completely, you guys You can only find the head descender who descended for you. The demon has not yet formed, and now he is injured by me, it should not recover so quickly in a short period of time."

Long Shen said: "You have bought us enough time."

Winter Solstice sincerely said: "Thank you to the car bureau, I thought I would die without a doubt, thank you for your hard work!"

Che Bai waved his hand and smiled tiredly. He looked obviously much older than before, and the lines on the corners of his eyes became darker.

"Don't say that you have a special meaning to Long Shen. Even if you are just an ordinary member of the Special Administration Bureau, if you can do your best, I will do my best."

Dongzhi suspects that he has seen the relationship between Long Shen and himself, but Che Bai seems to have only said a bland thing.

Watching Che Bai go back to rest, the winter solstice can hardly hide his unease.

"Master, the car bureau won't affect my body because of me, right?"

Long Shen shook his head: "No one in the world can live forever, and the same is true of artifact spirits. Life and death are reincarnated. The car bureau has only reached that threshold, and it has nothing to do with you."

Ever since the winter solstice learned about Che Bai's original form, he subconsciously regarded the branch chief as a walking ancient tree, which was extremely precious. Hearing this, he could not help but sigh.

Long Shen smiled when he saw that he still had time to worry about others.

"The car bureau has bought us a period of time now, and we must use this time to find the head descendant. What did you see just now?"

On the winter solstice, he described the jungle and stockade he saw. He had a good memory, and he painted. The description makes people feel very strong, and he can remember it all at once.

"That stockade should be the lair of the head-turning master, and the head-turning master is respectful to the demons, and must have a lot of connections with him... I remembered that the man should be the gold master Hong of the female star Han Qi. Rui, and that fat woman, it should be Dong Qiaolan, Han Qi's former manager, I have seen them in the photos before, and they are indeed related to the demon!"

Having said this, he frowned: "It's strange, the man I saw in my dream last time had a shaved head, very young and beautiful, why is the devil looking like Hong Rui this time? Is the devil the same as the devil? , can wear different human skins?"

Long Shen said: "The demon has not yet been fully resurrected and formed. What you saw in your dream is the real form of his consciousness, and what you saw just now should be that he temporarily borrowed Hong Rui's body, presumably for convenience. Bar."

The winter solstice was very surprised. I didn't expect such a big monster with evil nature to have such a beautiful appearance.

Long Shen seemed to see what he was thinking, and said: "The devil is invisible and colorless, but in order to confuse the world, they will naturally give birth to a body that is loved by the world, so that more believers can fall into the devil's barrier. Although the demons have not yet formed , but it can even fight with the car in the air, so it can be seen that the day of resurrection is not far away, once the demon is resurrected, the place it goes will become a **** on earth."

It's not necessary to kill the devil himself, it can deceive people's minds, manipulate the mind of human beings, and use the hands of humans to do what it wants to do, just like turning Hong Rui into his own believer before, and then letting Hong Rui go to Han Qi set up a set, playing with human life in the palm of his hand, using unscrupulous means and doing everything he could. It is true that Han Qi also has weaknesses. If she is not greedy for fame and fortune and wants to climb the dragon and the phoenix, she will not be taken advantage of by Hong Rui, but everyone has weaknesses. If someone likes honey today, it will turn poppies into honey. It's tempting and addictive, and you can't stop it. If someone has a trace of evil thoughts tomorrow, under the influence of demons, the evil thoughts will expand unconsciously, and eventually people will do crazy things.

At the end of the day, everyone has demons in their hearts. It only depends on whether they can stick to their original intentions and prevent evil thoughts from gaining the upper hand. However, it is simple to say, but many people in the world cannot do it.

Although the descending of the winter solstice was temporarily suppressed, they are still facing great problems now.

As soon as you go abroad, the name of the Special Administration Bureau is not very useful, not to mention that in Southeast Asia, it is not a problem to travel in peacetime. I'm afraid even the local government's name is not good.

Under such circumstances, looking for an anonymous black-robed head-turner is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Long Shen has already asked the White-robed Head-turner Association to help, but it is impossible to find anything in a while. He didn't want to say these things, which made the Winter Solstice more troublesome, and the Winter Solstice naturally wouldn't ask.

Since the last underground stone monument was unearthed, the Northwest Branch has been very lively for a while. Now, as the stone monument is sealed and reinforced, after sending people to guard, the staff has been dispatched to other places to find the stone monument. It's a good thing, the liveliness means an accident. There is a car in the town, and the branch is peaceful. There is no need for Long Shen, the deputy director of the general bureau, to inspect and supervise. Long Shen has long been accustomed to the busy days in the general bureau. A little not used to it.

On the winter solstice, he proposed to go to the History Museum. In fact, he has been to Xi'an before. The museum is naturally a must-see for art students, but since he became a practitioner, he can't help but think of the antiques when he sees them. , Although he couldn't witness the moment when his master took shape, but looking at other ancient swords, he can make up for the regret a little.

Long Shen shook his head and said he didn't want to go.

Those artifacts are naturally rare treasures in the eyes of ordinary people, but in Long Shen's view, for various reasons, they will no longer have the opportunity to transform into a human form.

Winter Solstice held his master's slender, well-jointed palm, feeling like he couldn't see enough of it.

"Then is there any place you want to go? Big Wild Goose Pagoda? Forest of Steles? Or Lotus Garden?"

Long Shen thought for a while and said, "Let's go to the snack street."

Snack Street, no matter whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, whether it is a holiday or not, can best reflect the eating habits of the people of the whole country, because it is bustling and crowded all year round. I thought Long Shen would not like this kind of place on the winter solstice, but I didn’t expect him He even offered to come.

The two ate dumplings in sour soup from Hu spicy soup, and after eating a few skewers of barbecued meat on the winter solstice, they were already full. They could only look at the roasted chicken they had just packed in their hands, thinking that they would like to see Chaosheng here. Not to mention a roast chicken, this snack street will probably make him empty.

Long Shen offered to come, but he didn't eat much by himself. The two found a place to sit down and watched the crowd everywhere, the white smoke was steaming, and if they didn't speak loudly, they couldn't hear what each other was saying.

In the hustle and bustle, Long Shen's expression was rather peaceful and calm. He didn't care about what to eat or whether it was noisy or not. It seemed that he was much more interested in the crowd than in the food itself.

When the Winter Solstice saw this, he joked: "Master, are you here to see people?"

Long Shen really nodded.

Watching the fireworks in the world, the various states of the world, watching the joys and sorrows of all beings, and truly feeling those fresh lives are precious existences that he needs to protect. Of course, there are countless darkness in this world, which often make the weak and weak, but if there is one person who makes efforts, even if it is like Jingwei reclaiming the sea, Kuafu chasing the sun, it cannot be said that the world is hopeless.

The winter solstice trembled slightly.

For some reason, he now understands Longshen's thoughts more and more. With just one look and one sentence, he can understand the meaning of the other party's words and what he is thinking.

In fact, Long Shen has never been difficult to understand. He can even be called pure and simple, but no one has ever been willing to patiently understand him, and he has never stopped to wait for others to understand.

By fate, the winter solstice became this person.

Not only because the Winter Solstice is willing to take the initiative, but also because Long Shen is willing to open his heart to him and let him understand.

The man he loves has great love in his heart, responsibility on his shoulders, and his eyes can even hold the whole world.

At this time, if the human world is more important or me is more important, it would be too small, but he still joked: "Then am I a small responsibility attached to the master?"

Long Shen lowered his head, looked at the hands of the two interlocking fingers, and suddenly smiled slightly.

"You are my little willfulness."

Responsibility is a deep imprint in the bones, and willfulness is a free will from the heart.

The winter solstice was stunned, and the hot feeling spread up from the neck immediately, like just drinking a bowl of Hu spicy soup, the stomach had a fever, and when it spread to every pore, the whole body felt comfortable.

He used to see Longshen cold and stern, but he didn't know that such a person was the worst when he was lifted up. Every sentence could hit the softest part of his heart, take root and sprout, and could never be pulled out again.

"Master, when did you change your mind towards me and find out that...it's not just the relationship between master and apprentice?"

After the huge shock a few days ago, he began to calm down slowly. This question lingered in his heart for a long time. It was not that Long Shen might mistake sympathy for love, but curiosity and puzzlement.

If it was said that it was on the beach that night, Long Shen only had a temporary idea, it is definitely impossible.

Long Shen talks less and often does more, but every time he does something, he always considers the outcome of his decision. He is by no means an impulsive person.

But if it wasn't that night, when was it?

Thinking about it carefully, there was still a period of separation between their master and apprentice. During that time, they experienced many things in Lucheng during the winter solstice, and they saw Longshen's past from the illusion derived from Changshoujian, and their mood changed a lot.

But what about Long Shen?

Long Shen thought for a while, then shook his head: "I don't know."

Facing his vaguely expectant but instantly dim eyes, Long Shen smiled.

"I have something there, go back and show it to you, I can't tell."

As soon as the voice fell, the phone of the winter solstice rang.

The caller's name displayed on the phone is Chen Guoliang.

The winter solstice raised his eyebrows and looked at Long Shen, who motioned for him to pick it up.

Pressing the answer button, Winter Solstice said with a smile: "Master Chen, are you planning to go to the mainland to develop business again, so do you want to report to me in advance?"

"No, no!" Chen Guoliang accompanied him with a smile, he would never go to the mainland in three or five years, for fear that this master would remember and arrest him again for ideological education, "It's good news, you last time The person who asked me to pay attention, I found out!"

The winter solstice sat up straight: "Qi Rui?!"

After Han Qi's accident, they investigated Qi Rui on the Winter Solstice. She is the best friend of Dong Qiaolan, Han Qi's former manager, and the person most likely to know the whereabouts of Dong Qiaolan and Hong Rui. She is a gambler and owes money in the mainland Once in debt, she ran to Xiangjiang to hide her debts. Since then, she has nowhere to go. At the winter solstice, she guessed that Qi Rui might have gone to Macau to avoid the limelight. There is a casino there, and she can also satisfy her hobby. Rui's news.

Now Chen Guoliang called, but said that he knew Qi Rui's whereabouts.
