25. Zhuo Jie's past life
“‘Zhuojie’s’ past life has been recorded successfully!”
The name of the owner of Gangdong is ‘Zhuo Jie’?
As the notification sounded in his ears, a thought suddenly flashed through Su Wu's mind.
The dark screen in front of him suddenly collapsed, and the whole world gradually became clear after spinning.
The sky is dark blue.
Waves of cold wind blew past the flat-roofed stone houses standing on the thatched grass, and also got into Su Wu's collar, making him shiver.
He tightened the collar around his neck, put his palms on the ground scattered with gravel, and raised his weak body up. He recognized the surrounding scenery in the dim sky, and saw a dark figure lying on the ground. See the mountains rising on the horizon.
The top of the mountain reflected the white color of snow in the dim skylight.
——Those are snowy mountains.
With no time to pay attention to the snow-capped mountains in the distance that looked particularly holy and peaceful in the night, Su Wu stumbled towards the black shadow on the ground.
The figure also squirmed and crawled towards him,
While crawling, he shouted: "Baby, Zhuojie! Zhuojie!"
Su Wu still felt strange about this name.
It wasn't until the man on the ground shouted several times that he realized that the other person was calling him, and he hurriedly responded: "Hey!"
The voice of a drake that is in the period of voice change.
"Great, great, it's great that the baby can wake up!" The man on the ground crawled to Su Wu's feet. His face could not be seen clearly in the dark night.
One of his hands was hidden in his wide sleeves, supporting the ground. The other arm was not wearing sleeves, and he reached into the arms covered by the thick robe and took out a bag of things and handed it to Su Wu: "There is some dried meat in it, you can eat it on the way!"
"There is a temple to the northwest, and three mages live in it."
"There is a letter here - you have to hand it to the mage in the northwest temple! When they see the letter, they will take you in!"
"Baby, let's go quickly, walk to the northwest, walk day and night, and you will be able to see the temple..."
"Go quickly, go quickly, if you don't go, Narrow-Sleeved Guanyin will catch up with you!"
"Abba will accompany you here..."
The man on the ground spoke louder and softer. His neck seemed to be strangled by a pair of hands, making it difficult to breathe. Every time he spoke, a sound like a broken bellows came from his throat.
Su Wu realized that the man on the ground was the father of Zhuo Jie, the owner of Gang Cave.
He wanted to ask the other party some more questions, but hearing the other party's urgency, especially the name 'Narrow Sleeve Guanyin', made him feel a chill in his heart.
So he didn't dare to delay, grabbed what the man handed him, and shouted: "I, I'm leaving!"
Then he ran forward without looking back!
There were especially stars shining in the dim sky, and Su Wu identified the position of the North Star.
According to the North Star, he vaguely discerned the northwest in the dark night, and kept running in that direction following the guidance of the stars.
It takes a day and a night to find the temple in the northwest.
Can you go that far on your own?
Are you in a hurry to chase the ‘Narrow-sleeved Guanyin’ who is somewhere?
Thoughts flashed through Su Wu's mind. With his own safety not guaranteed, he had no time to think about what era this was and where he was.
The sound like breaking a bellows was intermittent, but it seemed to always be heard not far behind Su Wu.
The sound of the wind did not blow away the sound.
The sound came one after another, making Su Wu scratch his head.
Whenever he wanted to turn his head to check out the situation, a slight chill would fill his head, making him realize how strange the reality was and suppress his inner impulse.
The gift of calm continues to work.
"Baby-"
But at this moment, the gasping sound turned into a high-pitched cry. Su Wu felt awe-struck and finally turned around to look:
But a few hundred steps away, I saw a man sitting cross-legged.
Layers of 'bandages' four fingers wide wrapped around his whole body, leaving only a wrinkled face showing a 'kind' smile to Su Wu.
Circles of 'bandages' emitted melting white light, illuminating the dark night, allowing Su Wu to see clearly the man's current situation in the dark night, even from hundreds of steps away.
The light flows slowly on the 'bandage'.
Su Wu saw clearly what the ‘bandage’ was——
That's not a bandage at all!
They were strips of snow-white arms emerging from the man's collar and cuffs, and they intertwined around the man's body.
Their snow-white color looks like bandages!
At this time, pairs of small hands stretched out from the knotted part of the 'bandage' and waved slightly to Su Wu.
A wave of coldness hit Su Wu's forehead. He bit the tip of his tongue, turned around and ran faster!
Hit a ghost!
This is where the owner of Gangdong lived. His own hand bones were made into flutes. How could the place where he lived not be evil?
Run, run, run!
"Baby..."
The man was obviously hundreds of steps away from Su Wu, but his voice was very close to Su Wu, as if he was whispering in Su Wu's ear!
The hair on Su Wu's whole body stood up, squeezing out every ounce of energy in his weak body to make himself run faster, faster!
He had not been running for five minutes before he felt burning pain in his lungs, sweat was pouring out of the pores all over his body, and most of his strength was lost in sweat.
"Baby..."
The man's voice sounded close to his ears again.
But 'he' showed no signs of catching up.
Su Wu suddenly became alert: Could it be that the ghost behind him was trying to scare him, make him run for his life, and exhaust his strength so that he could slowly deal with him?
As soon as he slowed down, the voice just sounded!
If he continued to run like this, he would fall to the ground and could no longer run in less than two minutes!
Rather than running for his life for two minutes and then facing a desperate situation, it would be better to slow down now and see if the ghost behind him was planning this.
He slowed down his pace and ran at a constant speed.
After a while, the voice sounded in his ears again: "Wait..."
Su Wu was unmoved and maintained his speed.
Five minutes passed.
Ten minutes passed.
The voice sounded every once in a while, but it never really appeared in front of Su Wu, which gradually put Su Wu's mind at ease - at present, this ghost was still far away from him.
And it did not have the ability of teleportation, so it could not catch up with him in a short time.
Slowing down again, Su Wu changed from running to walking with big strides. He needed to maintain his physical strength so that he could walk for a day and a night to the small temple the man mentioned.
He walked like this for about an hour, during which the sound was heard about twenty times, but nothing unusual happened.
Su Wu relaxed his vigilance and walked into a forest in the dark.
The big trees grew straight up to the sky, and the shade of the trees covered the sky, making the light around even dimmer.
He could only walk towards the bright place, and occasionally he could find the North Star in the small piece of sky exposed above, so as to adjust his direction.
As he walked, Su Wu came to a stream in the woods.
There was a figure standing by the stream.
He had his back to Su Wu, and there were a bunch of round patterns on his thick robe, and the robe reflected the emerald green color in the water.
