Chapter 10 Weird Cultivation Qing Mizi was sent into the carriage, and on the scene...
When the green millet was delivered into the carriage, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, let's go quickly while the sun is not too strong. Let He Si hurry and we'll head west first!" After doing all this, Helan also popped his head out of the carriage. He Si had arrived in front of the leading car without knowing when and was nodding to everyone. He Si was also a member of the escort team.
The two magicians got into the oxcart carrying the bronze mirror and blue rice. Helan drove the cart in the front, and the others returned to their respective carriages. At the signal of the guards, Ye Lu and his companions stood near the center. Most of the people in the oxcarts behind them were from the guards, and those in front of them were ordinary people.
Ye Lu guessed that it was because they had just awakened.
"Follow the vehicle in front of you. Don't look around or run around. As long as the object doesn't come to you, just pretend you didn't see it." The guards below probably worried about Ye Lu's first time driving the car, so they shouted and said it once, and then again: "Don't look, don't listen. You have awakened your talent, so you should be able to see the strange power."
"Don't leave the magical power of the Bronze Mirror Goddess. If anything strange happens, the Bronze Mirror Goddess will protect you." The guard said loudly.
"I know, I just won't look at it." Ye Lu nodded again. This time, both the playful man and the ghost scholar nodded, and the guard left.
After a while.
The air suddenly became silent.
Until a clear muffled sound of a bronze mirror was heard, breaking the silent atmosphere. The clear humming sound of the bronze mirror was like a wave shaking in everyone's heart, refreshing everyone who heard it.
The vehicle moved slowly.
The leading vehicle slowly drove out of the village, facing the huge sun above. There were more clouds above the sun, and the clouds were more yellowish. At first glance, it looked more like a mass of yellow mud surrounding and wrapping the sun. The heat came through these clouds, making people shudder.
It's strange.
Although it was scorching hot in the village, there were still some sounds. Some were the low chirping of insects, weak but still chattering. When we came out, not only did the sun get bigger, but it was also quieter.
The only sound along the way was the slow movement of vehicles.
Ye Lu was driving the carriage carefully in front. Along the way, his instinct as the Son of Mount Tai made him feel something was wrong several times. However, his current strength was too weak, and the degree of his awakened talent was far different from that of his previous life. Everything he saw seemed like flowers in the fog, and just when he felt the danger, it disappeared again.
The current divine body of Taishan can at most allow him to drive better when traveling faster.
After about two incense sticks, the playboy next to him seemed to have learned something and asked Ye Lu to rest and let him drive, otherwise he would definitely be too tired to do so at night. Ye Lu did not force it, and the ghost scholar also agreed, so he hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Of course, Ye Lu did not go directly into the car. On the contrary, he was worried that Xi Mingren could not drive the car, so he just switched seats with him and watched Xi Mingren from the side to prevent him from making any mistakes.
Ye Lu leaned against the door of the carriage and told the man, "Follow the front. No matter what your instinct is, ignore it and follow the car that is heading to the ancestral hall."
The playful man nodded, holding the rope of the driving blue ox with one hand, and slowly driving the car while imitating Ye Lu's actions just now. In fact, it is not difficult to drive this car. The blue ox understands human nature and is a strange beast. It knows where is dangerous and where is safe. Maybe it is safer for it to drive by itself than being driven by the three people in the car.
This sentence suddenly flashed through Ye Lu's mind and he twitched the corners of his mouth.
In the sky, the sun was still as bright as ever, as if it had covered layer upon layer of mud. Ye Lu and Xi Mingren had sweat dripping from their foreheads and their lips were cracked.
"Drink some water." The ghost scholar handed out a gourd-like kettle from the carriage and motioned for the two to drink some water. He said calmly while looking at the sky: "It's too hot."
"Fortunately we escaped, otherwise we would still be in He Village now. Who knows what would happen? You see, the playful man has become much more lively after coming out." Ye Lu took the water handed over by the ghost scholar, drank a few sips, and then handed the kettle to the playful man. The latter also grinned, took the water and drank it slowly.
"What happened to you while driving?" The ghost scholar asked when he saw that Ye Lu was no longer thirsty.
Ye Lu shook his head. When the ghost scholar asked, he was leaning against the inner carriage. They were separated by a curtain and talked incoherently. He said, "I can't tell. It's just a little noise. You will understand when you drive."
Ye Lu had just opened his mouth when suddenly, he seemed to hear some noise. He subconsciously looked towards the place where the sound came from. The black dogs he had seen from the beginning were no longer jumping around in the convoy. The puppies in the pack were all in the carriages, and the adult dogs were all on the ground. The leading dog, which was several times larger than its peers, stopped and looked straight at a certain place. It opened its mouth with sharp fangs and growled threateningly.
But where they were looking was an empty patch of grass. There was nothing there. The grass was very long, and the leaves were a little yellow due to the drought.
The black dogs showed no signs of moving.
The ghost scholar followed Ye Lu's gaze and naturally saw the black dogs. He frowned involuntarily and said: "Those dogs..." They exude a different aura.
The words haven’t been finished yet.
A pale shadow that looked like a human head emerged strangely from the large empty grass. The head was weeping constantly with a very painful expression.
“Save me…save me!”
The head begged for mercy in a strange voice while rushing towards the nearest villager who was driving a car. The speed was so fast that it even made a sharp sound of wind.
“Hehe…hahaha…”
“…Wuwuwu…”
The black dogs became even more angry because of the monster's provocative attitude. The monster was provoking them.
The leading dog pounced on it without hesitation, opened its mouth wide, and began to bite the monster. Behind him, the black dogs followed his steps and began to madly bite the white-swimming monster. The pale human head shadow that was so arrogant just now was torn into pieces by the black dogs in just a moment, and then was swallowed by the black dogs one bite at a time.
During the entire process, the convoy did not even stop.
The ghost scholar also saw the whole process, and he naturally recognized the identity of the white human-headed shadow.
"Weird?" The ghost scholar asked with doubt, but in fact his attitude was very certain. No one knew where the weirdness came from. They were called ghosts, but in fact they were more bizarre and crazy than ghosts. They often had unimaginable malice towards humans, and they instinctively greedily devoured all flesh and blood.
"Yeah." Ye Lu hummed.
"These black dogs are pretty good." The ghost scholar looked at the group of black dogs with great appreciation. The black dogs were just like a group of solid guards, guarding the convoy. Occasionally, they would find a monster and the group of black dogs would rush over. However, most of these monsters were not very strong.
The ghost scholar once again raised the strength of He Village in his heart. No wonder his Taoist master was reborn in this village. At the beginning, the ghost scholar couldn't believe it when he saw the drought in He Village. With his Taoist master's luck, how could he end up in such a village?
Now it seems that the luck value is as stable as before.
Ye Lu was talking to the ghost scholar when a figure suddenly appeared next to the frame of the car. He smiled cheerfully and said, "Lu, I came to see you and have a chat."
The sudden words made the three people present pause. Ye Lu's eyes turned cold. He turned around and saw the familiar He Qi. He Qi's uncle scratched his head, as if he found that he had scared people. He smiled embarrassedly. Ye Lu glanced and saw that the black dogs around the convoy ignored He Qi.
"Don't worry, it's not a weird thing. Don't be afraid. With Lady Bronze Mirror and Qing Mizi here, high-level weird things can't get in, and low-level weird things have been divided up by Black Dog and the guards." He Qi thought that Ye Lu was worried about whether he was real or not, so he quickly explained.
In fact, He Qi was also complaining in his heart.
These days he was busy packing luggage for his nephew and harvesting crops, and was completely immersed in his work. When he got in the car, his old man asked him if he had taught him anything about weird things and weird plants and beasts. Only then did he realize what he seemed to have forgotten.
As soon as Uncle He San saw the expression of his bastard son, he knew that he had not succeeded, so he immediately turned hostile and kicked him out of the car.
Just then, He Qi came over with a bitter face. How could he have been so busy and forgotten about this matter?
"Uncle Seven?" Ye Lu said slowly, "Why did you come down?"
"It's okay. Well, I just wanted to talk to you about strange plants and strange beasts. Haven't you just awakened? I was so busy that I forgot about it. Now that I remember it, I hurried over." Uncle He Qi looked around and saw no one, so he said in a low voice embarrassedly.
It turned out to be here! Ye Lu's first reaction after hearing this was that generally speaking, there would be someone to teach after awakening, but the three of them had waited for so long and didn't even see a shadow. Ye Lu was ready to ask when they parked the car, but he didn't expect that the teacher was his uncle, and he was so busy that he forgot.
That’s right, his seventh uncle has been busy taking care of him these days, so it’s understandable that he forgot.
Ye Lu understood his uncle instantly, then made way and bent down to enter the carriage, leaving just enough space for He Qi to enter. The three of them sat around on the haystack, not too close or too far away, ensuring that the conversation could be heard by the playboys.
"What do you want to ask?" Uncle He Qi rubbed his hands and asked.
Ye Lu and the ghost scholar looked at each other, and then, as if they had reached a consensus, Ye Lu slowly spoke out his confusion: "Uncle, how do I awaken my talent?"
"Although the Bronze Mirror Lady has awakened, I don't know what my talent is and how I should use it?" Ye Lu expressed his confusion. In other words, he wanted to ask how people in this world practice cultivation?
"Well..." He Qi instantly understood what Ye Lu meant. It was as if countless people had asked him this question before, and his answer was also very strange.
“With care.”
"Use your blood, use your instinct, whatever you have, to sense the talent in your body. When the time comes, your instinct will tell you how to use your talent."
“Talent is like your hands and feet. You can’t ask others, you can only ask yourself.”
"..." Ye Lu had a face full of question marks. He never expected to get such an answer. What does it mean to use instinct and blood to sense talent? It was so confusing that no one could understand it. It was completely different from the information they had received on the Star Network before.
Looking at the ghost scholar opposite, he also frowned and looked puzzled.
And what about Uncle He Qi? His expression was very serious and sincere enough, which showed that he was not lying.
"Of course, we will also rely on some external forces when practicing." He Qi seemed to have anticipated Ye Lu and the ghost scholar's confusion, and took the lead in asking the next question.
