Chapter 35: Vignette

The moment I woke up, I already knew what was going on, a ghost wanted to force me or entangle me while I was asleep, either way, trying to restrain me.

It's a pity that this kind of extremely effective way to deal with ordinary people, and even many unprepared cultivators, has no effect on me, just because my soul is protected by a stupid tiger, which is equivalent to naturally having a strong defense, how can ordinary ghost heads have an effect on me? Ten more won't work!

A trace of indescribable emotion flashed in my heart, more of a sadness, I am not a fool, I naturally know who did it, but this is not important, what is important to me now, what is the purpose of this person?

I suppressed the stupid tiger, and then silently communicated with the stupid tiger in my heart, and then let go of my defense, and let the ghost head that was entwining me at this moment enter my soul!

This is obviously a very risky way for others, but for me, it is not a burden at all.

The moment the ghost head entered my soul, it was suppressed by the soul power of the stupid tiger, or it can be said that it was suppressed by my own soul power, and then I pretended to be the upper body of the ghost head, unable to move at all, and even my consciousness was not very conscious, and waited quietly

In the no-man's land of the plateau at night, the night wind was so raging, and the fire outside the tent kept jumping, and even in front of the fire, the shadow reflected on the tent seemed to be constantly jumping, and finally, the shadow stood up and walked towards the tent.

I already knew that this was the result, and when he walked in, my heart was calm, he was the master of the ghost head, and the ghost head succeeded in the upper body, of course he knew that in such a foolproof state, he would naturally come in, I just need to pretend to be restrained.

"Big brother, big brother" After the young man came in, he didn't rush to do it, but called me twice in a row.

"Hmm" I pretended to be delirious, rolling my eyes, and it was completely a picture of being topped.

He lit the flashlight in his hand, first pretended to be anxious, looked at me carefully, and after a few seconds, he suddenly smiled, and his face, which was still a little delicate, was a little hideous and distorted under such a greedy smile.

He slowly stood up, looked at the small tent unhurriedly, and said: "Big brother, don't blame me, you also know that the days of casual cultivation are not easy, if I don't rob a few fat sheep, I can't get what I want when I go to the big city after all the hard work, so what's the point of risking my life to go to the big city?" ”

I continued to feign delirium, even though I now had some understanding of his purpose

Soon, the young man spotted my briefcase and duffel bag in the corner of the tent, and he stepped over my body briskly and began to rummage through my belongings excitedly.

I sighed inwardly, there were some things in my luggage that I definitely didn't want him to see, such as some magic weapons, which would inadvertently reveal my identity, so I didn't have to disguise it.

"Why did you find me?" I propped myself up, half-sat in the tent, and suddenly spoke.

"Nonsense, everyone else is in groups, there aren't many people alone, and they're all on guard, only if you're out and about, take stupidity as a good intention, who are I not looking for you?" The young man replied almost subconsciously, and then he suddenly realized that something was wrong, stopped rummaging in his hands, turned his head, and looked at me with some trepidation.

I also looked at him calmly, in my heart I would not accept his words, good intentions are stupid, at least some of the experiences of Master's friends and me illustrate a point, in this circle is still the mainstream, how can it be possible to change your opinion because of a few people.

"Are you sober?" The young man cautiously asked me tentatively, and then he seemed to sense something carefully, and then his expression relaxed slightly, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

"I said that I can go to the city alone, and I still have some ability. Suppressed the ghost head for the time being, right? So what, it's already hard for you to suppress it, and it can't be my opponent. He said to me.

"What is your purpose? Is it to rob me, and then go to the market to trade? "I ignored his statement and just reaffirmed his purpose.

"Or what do you think?" He grabbed the burden of my medicinal herbs in his hand, waved it a little excitedly, and yelled: "You guys with rich resources, how can you understand that I am a poor cultivator? A poor casual repair who has to make up the road expenses to come to the big market? I can't get anything good, and it's useless to go to the big market, do you think I'll be willing? Why should those who are not strong in the heart of the Tao and have no pursuit of the Tao enjoy more resources? Why do I try so hard and have no hope at all? ”

I didn't bother to argue with him, he was already so radical that he looked hopeless, and completely figured out his purpose, I just said a little lazily: "Put down the burden in your hands, and get out, can you understand?" ”

"Why are you," the young man obviously didn't expect me to respond to him like this.

At this moment, the silly tiger that had been restraining the ghost head in the depths of my soul finally roared and completely devoured the ghost head.

As the owner of the ghost head, the young man naturally suffered a backlash, and at the moment when the ghost head was devoured, he snorted, then took two steps back, and two lines of blood came out of his nose.

"Now you understand?" I stared at him.

He looked at me with some horror, put down the burden in his hand at once, and suddenly knelt down for me: "Big brother, I was wrong, I was greedy for a while, big brother, I am really pitiful, don't kill me." ”

If I'm a little ruthless, or killing this young man is the most foolproof way, but in fact I haven't been a ruthless person since I was a child, and killing people is definitely a very burdensome thing for me, even if it's in no man's land, even if it's normal for a few people to suddenly disappear here.

He probably didn't find anything, and in fact, I didn't think that he would be able to discover my identity as a casual cultivator, so I said, "Before I change my mind, you'd better roll as far as you want, and I'll say it one last time." ”

When I said this, the young man's expression became surprised, and then, fearing that I would change my mind, he thanked him in fear and crawled out of the tent

I heard his footsteps drift away, and when there was no sound anymore, I lay down again, lit a cigarette, and finally understood why those cultivators were so indifferent along the way, maybe this happened more than once or twice, right?

What is the charm of the big market that makes many cultivators take risks?

I thought to myself, a little dazed, and drowsiness surrounded me again, and I didn't pay any attention to the young man, but just took him as an unpleasant episode, and even my drowsiness was not affected.

――――――――――――――― Dividing Line――――――――――――――

Early the next morning, I was back on the road, and according to the instructions on the map, the remaining road was not far, as long as I bypassed the mountains not far in front of me, and reached the foot of the mountain on that side, I could be led all the way to the big city with the invitation in hand.

Looking at the mountains not far away, my mood was somewhat relaxed, after all, the remaining road was not far away, but in fact, it took me more than five hours to just go around a small mountain range.

I thought I had no altitude sickness when I came to this plateau, but when I went around the mountains, I realized that all the activities here were much more laborious than in other places, and I was so tired that I couldn't breathe after going around a small mountain range.

It turned out that I didn't really adapt to this plateau.

Thinking like this, I have completely circumnavigated this small mountain range, and after this rare small mountain range, it turned out to be a valley sandwiched between another mountain range, a small plain to be exact.

In this small plain, there are some wild animals belonging to the plateau, originally they were very afraid of life, and when they saw people or vehicles approaching, they would run away, but here, they were unusually leisurely, and they stared at a place not far away with a certain curiosity!

That place must be the place where all cultivators have to get off and walk, I stood at the mouth of the valley, and I saw that place at a glance, and my heart suddenly became inexplicably excited
