Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Seven or eight feet wide, five or six feet high, and more than ten feet deep, this is not like a cave, more like a large pit formed by the weathering of the cliff wall, uneven, and in some places even a foot-high stalagmite.
Meng Yuanhou put Xiaoqiu down and looked at it a few times, "Yes, it seems that you are the first person to move in." ”
"Can you come and see me? or I'll come and see you. Xiaoqiu said to Meng Yuanhou, who turned around to leave.
"The thinker does not have the right to visit his neighbor casually, but I am not far from you, a thousand and seven feet upward, sixty-three caves apart, and my new home. Meng Yuanhou suddenly remembered something, stretched out his right hand and pressed it on a relatively flat cave wall, with a little force, he withdrew his palm, "There is also a little benefit to thinking about it, it is very quiet, it is suitable for the tribulation, I will leave you a piece of mental method, it may be helpful, but there is no care here, you can only rely on yourself." If possible, try to delay the moment of the tribulation, you will be safer at the Cultivation God Peak. ”
"Yes. Xiao Qiu felt a sense of reluctance, the fate of the people he respected was not good, Li Yuechi committed suicide in order to prevent the invasion of the demon seed, and Meng Yuanhou had to think about other people's crimes for a hundred years, "I don't know how to thank you." ”
"Then don't thank me, just remember that I'm the one who teaches the art of defying the sky. The fire will not be extinguished, see you in a hundred years. ”
"The fire is not extinguished. Xiaoqiu can't say the last four words, a hundred years, unimaginably long.
Meng Yuanhou flew into the air and went to his Siguo Cave. Xiaoqiu stood at the entrance of the cave, leaned over and looked up, the cliff was not high, Meng Yuanhou had disappeared into the night, looked down, the bottom was not visible, and looked into the distance, the mountains in the night fog stretched out like a crawling giant snake to the far distance.
Xiaoqiu didn't know where he was, he only knew that it was a bare cliff, there was not even a weed, it was covered with large and small caves, and Shen Geng, who had been sentenced to think for five years, should also be in a cave.
He stood at the entrance of the cave until the sky gradually released light, the clouds and mist dispersed, the mountains gradually became clear, one of the straight peaks looked a bit like the old ancestor peak, as for the Yangshen Peak, he had never been there, he didn't know what it looked like, he closed his eyes, imagined in his mind a place similar to the old ancestor peak courtyard, and then muttered to himself: "Get up, dress, wash your face, you should also practice boxing, eat breakfast, gather, line up, worship the ancestor......"
Xiao Qiu could only think of this, he knew too little about the entrance ceremony.
Then he opened his eyes, and there was a bird flying towards him, getting closer and closer, but he didn't dodge, and he suddenly stopped when he saw that it was about to collide, and it was not a bird, but a plate of rice, no chopsticks and no side dishes.
Xiaoqiu felt hungry at this time, nearly six or seven hours have passed since that competition, he didn't eat any rice, he grabbed the plate and was stunned, he simply grabbed the rice with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth, and finally added the plate cleanly, the black lacquer plate didn't seem to like such a move, and couldn't wait to break free from Xiaoqiu's hand and staggered away.
This little bit of food was not enough to eat, and Xiaoqiu could only hope that lunch and dinner would be more sumptuous, and when night fell again, he realized that there was only one meal a day here.
Throughout the day, Xiao Qiu was doing one thing, removing as many stalagmites as possible from the cave so as to make room for himself to lie down, and the hungrier his stomach became, the more energetic he became, and he smashed the stones with both hands and threw them outside the cave, in this way he exhausted himself, forgot his hunger, and forgot his thoughts.
The ground was still very awkward, Xiaoqiu and Yi lay down, and fell asleep as soon as they closed their eyes.
For three days in a row, life remained the same, in this silent and silent cave, eating one meal a day, and in his free time he either practiced boxing or leveled the ground, he saw the place where Meng Yuanhou pressed with his palm, leaving a faint handprint, no words, no graphics, Xiaoqiu knew that this was because he had not yet reached the time of the tribulation, and he had no doubts, and there was naturally no answer on it.
On the evening of the fourth day, when Xiaoqiu was sitting cross-legged at the entrance of the cave looking at the mountains, a visitor came.
The visitor slowly rose from below, and when he appeared entirely, Xiao Qiu saw that he was stepping on a turquoise jade Ruyi, three feet long and three inches wide, barely able to fit two feet, but the visitor stood firmly.
It was Shen Ji.
He was wearing a slightly wide blue Taoist robe, with a high bun on his head and a wooden hairpin, exactly the dress of a standard little Taoist priest.
The two looked at each other for a while, and Xiaoqiu said, "Let me guess, your mother sent you up." Xiao Qiu didn't know much about magic weapons, but he felt that male Taoist priests probably wouldn't use jade ruyi as magic weapons.
"I'll see how you're doing. Shen Ji looked at the cave behind Xiao Qiu, and did not say a word about Xiao Qiu's speculation.
"Fortunately, I live alone, more spacious than the room of four people in the building, and there is one thing that makes me unable to eat and sleep well - I wonder if your brother lives in some cave below. ”
"What, you still want to seek revenge on him?" Shen Ji's eyebrows raised slightly, "It's all an accident that you can defeat him in the pavilion, and even if you can climb over, you can't beat a finger of my brother." ”
Xiaoqiu shook her head, "I don't want to fight with Shen Geng now, I just want to know, every day when I and pee, can I fly to his hole with the wind?"
Shen Ji's face changed, he was a handsome and elegant Taoist disciple, he had lived among the Taoist priests who had eaten and drunk since he was a child, and some dirty things seemed vulgar even if they were said in the most subtle words, let alone so straightforward?
"Mother told me that I must always remember the appearance of the enemy, I will take a look, and that is enough, and we will see you on the Yangshen Peak in the future. ”
"Well, you know what, you look a lot like your brother, especially your eyes. ”
"Hmm. ”
"When I beat you up in the future, I will be very happy. ”
A disdainful smile appeared on Shen Ji's face, "Mother also told me that the enemy is the best help to promote cultivation, and I hope that you can practice hard this month and not be left too far behind." ”
Xiao Qiu stared at Shen Ji and shook her head slightly, "Your mother must have liked your brother very much, and she didn't tell you these words until he was locked up." ”
Shen Ji couldn't control the anger in his heart, snorted, turned around and flew down, and the jade Ruyi under his feet threw out a piece of green light.
Xiaoqiu was in a happy mood, and she opened her posture and was about to fight the Bone Forging Fist again, when she suddenly heard Shen Ji's voice ringing in her ears again, "I will defeat you, Mu Xingqiu, I will fight you so that you have no strength to fight back, I want to make my mother proud, let her know that I am not worse than my brother at all, and even stronger......"
Shen Ji, who has always been very strict, would actually say such childish words, Xiaoqiu felt funny, turned around and was about to make a sarcastic remark, but now there was no one outside the cave at all, he leaned over and looked down, only to see the clouds and mist.
Xiaoqiu was stunned, and then more unfamiliar sounds poured into her ears, faint human voices, the roar of the mountain wind hitting the cliff wall, the shrinkage of the last few dead leaves of an old tree that didn't know where, and the sizzling sound of clouds and mist absorbing water vapor, became clearer and more complex.
Xiaoqiu retreated into the cave, knowing that the thunder tribulation was coming, this kind of thing could not be controlled, and it would come, without the protection of the capital sect, he could only deal with it alone.
He leaned close to the wall, and with the help of the last trace of the sunset, he carefully searched for the handprint left by Meng Yuanhou, and as expected, the handwriting gradually appeared:
The heart is the master, the only way to survive the calamity is to guard the heart, those who come will come, and those who go will go, and you can't show weakness or force.
This is an ambiguous nonsense, if it weren't for the respect for Meng Yuanhou, Xiao Qiu, who was roaring in his ears, would not continue to look at the handprint, and soon, the words changed, and this time the sentence was no longer vague, but a small piece of specific luck method.
Xiaoqiu immediately did so, first sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes, then covered her heart with her right hand, pressed her left nostril with her left hand, and slowly breathed through one nostril, every time she exhaled, her upper and lower teeth had to be gently tapped, but her lips could not be opened.
After seven breaths, cover your heart with your left hand and press your right nose with your right hand.
This is the method of guarding the heart, and it can't stop or weaken the sound from the outside world, the discomfort in Xiao Qiu's ears is getting stronger and stronger, the real thunder has arrived, and even the sound of the dead leaves being blown down by the cold wind is like thunder in the ears, endless, and still intensifying.
Should be able to survive, Xiao Qiu just had such an idea, and the voice in his ears changed slightly, and a voice became clear out of the noise:
It was a child's voice, muttering to himself full of hatred, and the words "Mu Xingqiu" frequently popped out of his mouth, "...... I'm going to prove that you have a demon seed, and that all of you have a demon seed...... Pang Shan owes me an apology...... Grandmaster, why are you so protective of them? Are you also enchanted? Open your eyes!Ah, my eyes, Mu Xingqiu, I'm going to gouge out your eyes......"
It was Shen Geng, who had also been thinking about it, Xiaoqiu was furious, and was about to open his mouth to denounce it, when another voice interjected: "The voice of the enemy, disturbing people's hearts, can't you even resist such a simple trick?"
Meng Yuanhou's stick drink shocked Xiaoqiu, and he immediately put away his anger and continued to run the heart guarding trick.
Shen Geng's curse was unwilling to re-mingle with the noise, I don't know how long it took, another voice became clear, it was clearly Grandmaster Pang Shan and the Forbidden Secret Sect Seat arguing, one thought that the young man in Yelin Town should continue to observe, the other thought that it was not possible to raise tigers for trouble, Zuo Liuying could not speak, and a woman spoke for it, but the tone was extremely intense.
"The sound of illusion is moving. Meng Yuanhou's reminder drilled into Xiao Qiu's mind like a gossamer, and he realized again that Shen Geng's voice just now could still be true, but the Grandmaster and Zuo Liuying were both Taoist priests with high mana, and it was impossible for the voice to reach the ears of outsiders.
After another while, Xiaoqiu heard an even more impossible voice, it was Erliang Shen Xiuwei and the bald man Mu Songxuan, they were chatting with each other, laughing at each other, as if they were still alive in Yelin Town.
Xiaoqiu knew that this was fake, or the sadness came from it, and the momentum was a hundred times stronger than Shen Geng's anger.
"The voice of the dead is heartbreaking. In the midst of the thunder, Meng Yuanhou's voice was as light as a sigh.
Xiao Qiu persevered, and when the voices of his father, younger brother, and the neighbors of Yelin Town came at the same time, he just turned a thought and eliminated them from his ears.
When he opened his eyes, he saw three rice balls on the edge of the cave, and for three whole days, he survived the thunderstorm.
Then he saw the snowflakes outside, and the first snow of the year came unexpectedly.
The snowflakes in Pang Mountain are different, the pieces are as big as discs, Xiao Qiu was surprised to see that their form is even more beautiful than flowers, which he has never noticed, not only that, Xiao Qiu also smelled the smell of snowflakes, which is a bit similar to the light rain after a long drought, and then, Xiao Qiu's throat surged, not wanting to eat, but a voice involuntarily wanted to come out.
He turned his head to look at the handprint left by Meng Yuanhou, which was flashing with a few lines of small characters, and in Xiaoqiu's opinion, all of them were like a big fight.
The eyes are like torches, shining all over the subtle, it is for the fire robbery.
The nose is like a thoroughfare, not blocked or left, it is for the wind calamity.
If the mouth is like a bell, the earthquake is thousands of miles, and it is a mountain robbery.
Xiao Qiu had just passed the Thunder Tribulation, and he was about to usher in the other five tribulations at the same time, and he clearly remembered that this was an extremely rare thing and an extremely dangerous thing.
The green light thrown out by Yu Ruyi under his feet when Shen Ji left three days ago seemed to be flickering in front of Xiaoqiu's eyes again.
