"The other party is familiar with the environment here, and he should have spent a lot of time here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Yuan Gang reminded.

Niu Youdao bowed slightly, expressing his approval, some areas here are eroded by the river like a labyrinth, if it weren't for Shang Shuqing's guidance, it would be difficult to find the way here, and if the other party was not familiar with it, he would naturally not be able to easily find the location of the torch to do his hands and feet, and turned his head to ask Shang Shuqing behind him, "County Lord, didn't the people who came and go here before find anything abnormal?"

Shang Shuqing: "I haven't heard of it, I shouldn't have it." ”

Niu Youdao: "How long has this tunnel been useless?"

Shang Shuqing: "I don't know, at least some things have remained silent under the purge of the imperial court after my father's accident, and they have not been used again." ”

Several people understood, that is, it is possible for the other party to stay here for a few years, and it is completely possible to be familiar with the environment here. As for where the other party came in, it may not be at the entrance and exit planned by King Ning, who dares to guarantee that there will be no other entrances or anything like that in such a long geographical range.

Niu Youdao was silent for a while, and said: "Actually, there is nothing to worry about, the other party's strength should be limited, otherwise you can find it directly, and you can't do this." We can't let the other party lead us by the nose, otherwise we will be weakened by running all the way, but it will be easy for the other party to succeed, we have to calm down and not let ourselves be in a weak position. After that, he put down Shang Shuqing behind him, and turned his head to gesture, "Old Xiong, catch more torches in the river." ”

Yuanfang was stunned and said, "I can't point it, what's the use of getting it?"

Yuan Gang immediately shook off a word, "What nonsense, Dao Ye asked you to do it, you just do it!"

Yuanfang laughed dryly, but looked at the weaker torch in his hand. And Yuan Gang had already untied a package on his body, untied it on the ground, and threw a broken torch head to him, although the handle was not long, the length of the holding position was still enough.

Yuanfang was stunned for a moment, I don't know when Yuan Gang prepared so many torch heads, and then looked at Niu Youdao, who was of course not strange at all, even after serving these two people, he sighed in his heart, these two are amazing, even this is ready, did he have already guessed that the other party was going to do something on the torch?

This is what he thinks about a lot, Niu Youdao didn't expect the other party to do things on the torch before, after all, it is not clear about the situation of the enemy and me, I don't know if the other party has bad intentions, just after discovering the abnormality, combined with the environment in which he is located, as an old Jianghu, the first thought is to judge the possible disadvantages, the lighting problem in the dark is the first priority, and the decisive first to do a certain amount of control of this problem, and prevent it from happening!

Shang Shuqing slept heavily before, and he didn't know when Yuan Gang had prepared so many torch heads, so he was also a little surprised.

After lighting the other torch in his hand, Yuanfang didn't worry about the lighting problem, and floated to the river to work, and immediately picked up the torch floating on the river and threw it on this side.

It can also be seen that the other party has been destroying the torch storage points along the way, trying to completely put this side in a disadvantageous place.

Niu Youdao took the sword from Shang Shuqing's hand and came back, put it in front of him, and smiled at Shang Shuqing: "You are also tired, I woke you up after not sleeping for long, continue to rest, it will be fine." ”

Shang Shuqing shook her head, there was such an accident, how could she still sleep, sitting against the stone wall, observing the surroundings from time to time.

Yuan Gang left two torch heads on his back for backup, and the rest were all lit in piles, and after the fire was blazing, he threw the soon-to-extinguish torches of several people into the fire as firewood, and collected a pile of wet torches thrown ashore, and threw them into the fire in the same way, burning the same as firewood while roasting.

After that, he gathered a pile of wet torches and placed them by the fire to bake, and he was busy alone.

After seeing this, Yuanfang, who was running back and forth on the river, suddenly realized, and finally understood the purpose of Niu Youdao to let him pick up wet torches.

Niu Youdao was straight, and the pestle sword stood beside the fire, slowly scanning the surroundings with cold eyes.

Shang Shuqing, who was sitting on the side and hugging her knees, saw that she naturally understood what she was going to do now, and when she saw the orderly preparation here, she was also a lot more relieved, and then looked at the figure standing alone by the fire, feeling like her patron saint, and also everyone's patron saint, with this standing patron saint, it seemed that there was no difficulty to stump them, which made her feel an inexplicable sense of security.

After understanding what was going on, Shang Shuqing also got up and sat by the fire like Yuan Gang, helping to bake those soaked torches.

Niu Youdao, who was standing with a sword, just glanced at her, didn't say anything, and focused on observing the surroundings again.

When the wet torches on the shore had been piled up like a hill, and Yuanfang came back to change the torches again, Niu Youdao said loudly: "Old bear, enough, you eat something first, rest first." ”

Yuanfang was indeed tired enough, a little panting, this has been casting spells on the surface of the river, after a long time, the mana consumption is terrible, but he smiled: "It's okay, I'm still..."

Yuanfang obediently went to the side to unwrap the package, took out the dry food, and sat by the fire to nibble. Roasting on the fire, eating and watching others work, especially watching Yuan Gang work, I inexplicably feel that it is also a kind of enjoyment in this environment, with a happy smile on my face from time to time, and I have gradually become accustomed to getting along with Niu Youdao and Yuan Gang.

Niu Youdao said to Shang Shuqing: "County Lord, you can also eat and rest." ”

Shang Shuqing shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry!"

Yuan Gang said lightly, "At this time, if you don't understand, you have to be obedient, let go of the county lord's face, and do whatever you want, no one will harm you." ”

Yuanfang, who was gnawing on things, couldn't help but be happy, or Yuan Ye had a personality.

Niu Youdao looked around, and at the same time explained with a smile: "He doesn't mean anything else, in this case, be sure to restore your physical strength to the best state as soon as possible, just in case!" The tone and attitude were gentle, not as casual as usual, making people feel warm.

It's not that his attitude towards Shang Shuqing has suddenly reversed, he is a person who has always been rational and sober, and if he is too rational and sober, he sometimes seems impersonal, or even cold-blooded, so few people and things can make him impulsive or something, so he will not suddenly change his temper because of Shang Shuqing.

appeased Shang Shuqing because he knew that this woman must be worried now, and it was not appropriate to put pressure on this woman to make her afraid at this time, because if she made a mess, it might become more cumbersome, which was not good for anyone. What's more, this woman can show that she is not afraid in this situation, does not cause trouble to everyone, is already a rare strong among women, and should be comforted and confident, there is no need to tear up her strong shell to see her weakness.

In two lives, Niu Youdao has seen a lot of women, and there are not many women who can make her appreciate, to a certain extent, Shang Shu is one, but it is too ugly, people can't bear to look at it directly!

Shang Shuqing understood that Yuan Gang had no bad intentions, Yinya bit his lip, touched the dry food in the package on the side, lowered his head and nibbled on it, and did so.

When Yuanfang has eaten and drunk enough, he meditates cross-legged by the fire to breathe and recover!

After Shang Shuqing was full, Niu Youdao smiled again: "Just sleep by the fire for a while, it's not cold, it's warm, and you have a good rest." The tone was calm and gentle.

Shang Shuqing nodded, obediently obeyed, took the package as a pillow, took a piece of clothing to cover the curve of her body, and lay down on her side.

Yuan Gang, who was baking torches and adding firewood to the fire from time to time, suddenly asked in a low voice: "Master Dao, can the other party see in the dark?"

The implication is that if the other party can't take advantage of the darkness, why should they destroy the torches?

Niu Youdao, who was vigilant around him, explained: "The difference between yin and yang is just to adapt to their respective living environments, and at the same time they are mutually reinforcing, most of the things that live in the sun are not used to surviving in the dark, and most of the things that live in the dark are also not suitable for surviving in the sun." If you want to merge with each other, you need certain conditions, for example, people need to use fire lighting to survive in the dark. ”

Yuan Gang: "What do the so-called 'ghosts' need to survive in the sun?"

Niu Youdao: "Yang Qi!"

"Yang Qi?" Yuan Gang wondered.

Niu Youdao: "According to my understanding, dark matter has a certain degree of moldability and being molded for certain things under special conditions, and the body should have a shaping function for dark matter, for example, the adjustment of the body by different exercises and cultivation can create completely different hot and cold effects, and even various effects. In turn, the body is also shaped by dark matter, such as the werewolf in the West, which should be the result of being shaped, and the old bear is an example, and the transformation between humans and bears is actually no different from the werewolf in Western legends, in other words, the werewolf in Western legends is the monster in Eastern legends. The monk's breathing and pranayama can absorb and shape dark matter, and there is also the absorption and shaping of dark matter between the breath of ordinary people, and the result of the transformation should be the so-called yang energy of the human body, and the result of the monk's cultivation, yang energy is also a kind of energy existence, one of the energy ways to support the flesh and blood to run in the yang world, which is why people without yang energy are no different from dead people, because they have lost some kind of kinetic energy. Ghosts do not exist in the form of flesh and blood, so they cannot create the yang energy of the human body, and without this, it is difficult to move freely in the yang world, so they need to take the form of unearned gains, such as absorbing the yang energy of the human body. ”

Yuan Gang: "Does it make sense? Since you have become a ghost, why bother about the yang world." ”

Niu Youdao: "The so-called 'lonely soul and wild ghost', it is a lonely and desolate thing to become a ghost, but the thinking and thoughts have not disappeared, and they still survive with the help of some kind of energy carrier, watching the prosperity of the world and unable to integrate, think about life, few ghosts can resist the temptation of the world." ”

Yuan Gang: "Can't ghosts live collectively among themselves?"

Niu Youdao: "Of course you can, but ghosts are scarce after all, not everyone has the conditions to continue to exist in this way after death, even if they can get together, the consequences of too much yin qi are easy to be discovered, those monks or mages will not let go, for example, the monks who scatter all over the place to collect spiritual grass are a net, once they are found, they will not sit idly by, each species has the nature to protect its own race." ”
