Looking at the drum at the end of the stairs, the master said: "That is the guest drum. There is mysterious witchcraft on the drum. The guest drum is played here, and the guest drum is on the other side of the village.

It will also vibrate, and people in the village will naturally come to Yingkeping to pick us up."

"Haha, I'm not afraid of picking up the wrong person." I said casually, but I still sighed at the magic of witchcraft. Could this be the 'high technology' of that era? It has almost caught up with today's communication technology. Taoism actually also has this kind of magic.

Contact information, but the details have been lost.

"You won't pick up the wrong person. If you are not a guest of this village, you won't know how to walk this soul-breaking ladder. And the walking method of this soul-breaking ladder changes every twenty years. Do you think you will pick up the wrong person? And it's just like Taoism.

A fate is the same, if someone really comes out by coincidence

If someone breaks the Soul-Destroying Ladder, the village will recognize it and come to pick it up. If someone forcibly broke the Soul-Destroying Ladder, they would naturally have a way to know about it and respond accordingly. It can be said that this Soul-Destroying Ladder is the leader of the village.

Just defend yourself." Master said with emotion.

I can understand this feeling of emotion. Master is actually feeling that although this village is hidden from the world, it has a good inheritance and has various foundations equivalent to a sect. However, my lineage, Lao Li, has very few people, even Wu Tian'

The descendants of Disdain also have their own organizations. Although not all of them are from the lineage of Lao Wu, and they are now excluded from power, at least they were among the top forces during their glory days.

As for our lineage of Lao Li, after all, I once had this fantasy. If our lineage of Lao Li can develop and develop, how great would it be if we could also become a sect force and then live in seclusion?

It's just that the reason why fantasy is called fantasy is that it cannot become reality. Our Lao Li lineage is destined to be "working hard". Even if the population is prosperous, it may still be this fate, right?

For a moment, Master and I were silent. Originally, I wanted to ask Master how he knew so clearly about Qiangzi. After all, Qiangzi told me that he was spotted by a big wizard in the department and then went to study.

, it has nothing to do with the master, but because I was thinking about my own lineage, my mind was heavy, and I was not in the mood to ask.

We were silent for a while facing Master, and then we took turns falling asleep. This was a habit we had developed during our previous years of fleeing in the mountains.

I had been in a coma for a long time, so I asked Master to sleep first. I guessed that it would be dawn before we could see people from the so-called village come to pick us up. However, I didn’t expect that after I stayed vigil for more than two hours, I heard someone coming from the village.

There were sounds of horse hooves coming from the deep mountains over there.

Naturally, my first reaction was to be nervous. After all, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the two of me and my master were chased as 'lost dogs' when we were in the mountains. But when I thought about what my master had told me about the guest drum on the Soul-Destroying Ladder, my thoughts started to change.

After I relaxed a little, I guessed that someone from the mysterious village was here.

However, riding a horse in the deep mountains is a new thing.

Thinking like this, I still woke up Master. Master rubbed his sleepy eyes and said to me in a daze: "You were unconscious for a few hours, and we waited for a few more hours, which is not a short time. However,

, this time it came faster than the previous times, maybe something happened."

Of course there is something going on. The town below is so noisy. Can the village in this mountain just sit idly by and ignore it?

But now the sound of horse hooves has become clearer and clearer. If the visitor is really from the hermit village, it is not good for us to discuss it like this. We cannot leave such an impression on people in the first place, so I put this

The words were just buried in my heart.

A few minutes later, under the starlight in the sky, my master and I saw several figures on horseback coming towards us. There was a fire in our place. They must have seen us early, so they rode directly towards us.

.

This horse may have been walking on mountain roads for a long time, so its speed was not slow. After more than a minute, a group of four people came to me and the master.

At this time, I felt relieved. Judging from the clothes, the visitors were typical Miao men, and they did not have any hostility towards us. As soon as they stopped, they dismounted one after another. This was an attitude of respect.

, it would be somewhat condescending to talk to us directly right away.

"But did you beat the guest drum?" After dismounting, the leader of the group smiled at us and started asking directly in some jerky Chinese. Compared to the Han people, the Miao people are so direct, so the Miao people

Only women dare to love and hate. Perhaps in their view, nonsense greetings are not necessary, as long as they express friendship.

"Yes, we have beaten the guest drum." Master stepped in front of me, held a Taoist ceremony, and answered directly.

"Then please tell me your name. After all, our Leishan Miao Village is a Miao Village. We don't have many friends, but we must remember them all. If the visitor gives his name, we can also treat him as a friend." Although the leader

He said that he has the uprightness of the Miao people in his character, but he still has a bit of tact in his words. These few words were polite, and on the surface they were meant to entertain friends, but in fact they were full of defensiveness.

This is very different from what Master just said. Didn’t it say that guests will be welcomed after boarding the Soul-Destroying Staircase? But if you think about it carefully, this has something to do with the things in the town. Maybe those weird old men in the town are waiting for Master and me.

After waiting for a long time, maybe I thought that Master and I were unreliable, so I notified the people in the village in a special way?

I was making random guesses, but Master didn't express any emotion on his face. When faced with the question from the visitor, he answered directly: "I, Jiang Lizhun, this is my disciple Chen Chengyi."

"Jiang Lichun? Chen Chengyi? Do you have any proof?" As soon as he heard my and master's names, the Miao man's face suddenly became solemn and serious, and he asked worriedly.

"We can't prove it, but if the Daxing shaman in your village was here, he would definitely be able to recognize me at a glance." Master replied calmly.

"Da Xing Wizard? Do you know his name? By the way, if you know the name of Da Xing Wizard, it must be Daochang Jiang. A Mao Dou is so rude." When the Miao man named A Mao Dou heard my master mention it,

After hearing the name of the great shaman of Daxing, his attitude immediately became respectful, and he bowed and saluted my master. Several Miao people behind him also quickly followed suit.

Many people must be thinking, is a name like this? In my opinion, if it is a village with witchcraft as its heritage, letting outsiders know the real name is indeed a big deal.

Thinking of this, I felt a little dazed, and my thoughts drifted back to our favorite hillside many years ago, when Ruxue was lingering for half a year. I slept on Ruxue's legs in the lazy sun, and she used her hands to Holding her chin and looking into the distance, we chatted casually in a quiet manner, and she told me some things about the Miao people.

Among them, it was mentioned that because there is a powerful curse in the inheritance of witchcraft, if you let others know your real name easily, you will be afraid of being cursed. Therefore, the kind of Shengmiao village where witchcraft is the inheritance is very taboo about telling the real name to the village. It doesn’t work with strangers outside the country, even if they are Miao people.

Ruxue's words were naturally deeply engraved in my mind. Now that I think of them again, these words are nothing more.

But the sunshine of that year, the smell of the grass, the smell of her hair, and the warmth of dependence came to mind again, as if it had been a hundred or ten thousand years, so long that when I didn’t touch it, I I almost forgot that we were once so close, loved each other wildly, and stayed together.

I almost forgot, am I still in love with a woman so much? A lot of times, it’s not that I forget someone or that I don’t love someone at all? It’s that time seals the relationship? The reason is as simple as one sentence , you can no longer pick it up or touch it, so what if you don’t seal it? You can’t live with heartache every second. If you are a person, you will subconsciously protect yourself!

I was in a daze, because just by sealing it up and touching it, the breath of love would still permeate my heart, and my soul began to ache again. The pain was so painful that it was difficult for me to breathe. I couldn't help but tilt my body and grab it. He stayed on Master's shoulder.

And my consciousness began to blur again. Countless scenes passed before my eyes. Green mountains, green water, waterfalls, deep pools, and rivers passed by. In countless scenes, I saw the figure of a woman, with bright eyes and a smile that narrowed, like a crescent moon. Son

"Hey, Shitou, can you stop letting me talk to myself all the time?"

"Hey, Shitou, can you say a few more words when you reply to me? Don't always be so perfunctory with um, ah, yes?"

"Hey, Shitou, can you stop being so stingy? You always make me guess whatever I ask you. I guessed it. I want to know what I can ask you?"

"Hey, Shitou, I'm Wei Chaoyu. Remember, I'm Wei Chaoyu."

The name "Wei Chaoyu" resounded in my mind. Even though my soul was so painful that I wanted to scream, I couldn't help but read the name.
