Chapter 63
Master Ming Zong finished reading the whole passage, looked down at his feet, the stone wheel was silent, without any reaction. Could it be that I mispronounced it just now? He moved his gaze back to the stele and checked it repeatedly.
Suddenly, there was a slight vibration under his feet, and he hurriedly looked down, only to see the stone powder flying on the wheel, and the lines wrapped around the earthworms seemed to come to life, twisting back and forth like a snake.
Master Mingzong blinked his eyes, and then looked in the direction of the lines. The lines lay quietly on the roulette without twisting, which seemed to be an illusion caused by the vibration.
At this time, Zheng Qiu suddenly said, "Master, I feel weird."
"Strange? How does it feel, tell me." Master Ming Zong asked, squatting down and catching Zheng Qiu's wrist. His pulse was very stable and there was no abnormality.
"Just a little itchy. Itchy all over."
"Apprentice, bear with it, I guess it won't last long."
Sure enough, after waiting for a while, Zheng Qiu said, "Master, the itching is gone."
While he was speaking, the lines on the right front of the roulette glowed faintly. Fluorescent white with greenish tint, very faint, seems to go out at any moment.
"Apprentice, don't move." Master Ming Zong hurriedly jumped off the roulette, and hurriedly carried another stone tablet from behind. When he returned to Zheng Qiu's side, the fluorescence on the roulette went out, but fortunately, the patterns on the roulette did not move, and the stone pattern that had been glowing was still on the front right.
Comparing with the translation written by Mumeihua on the stele, the pattern at this position reads: "Hukem murmured that the cradle of vitality needs new attendants..."
Vitality corresponds to the "wood spirit" written by Mu Meihua, but judging from the records of the stele, the "wood spirit" on Zheng Qiu should be very weak. Because it says, the more powerful the "spirit", the longer the spirit detection wheel will be on and the higher the brightness will be.
Master Ming Zong put down the stele and returned to Zheng Qiu's side. Strangely, there seemed to be some changes in Zheng Qiu's body, but he couldn't explain the changes.
"Apprentice, give me your hand." Master Ming Zong felt his pulse with his wrist, and the pulse remained the same without any change.
So he stood behind Zheng Qiu, put his hands on his apprentice's shoulders, stimulated his energy, and imitated the way of measuring the root to reveal the pelvis and the root bone, and slowly probed inside. After this investigation, Master Ming Zong discovered a change, a huge change.
The meridians in Zheng Qiu's body are extremely clear, and there is nothing that cannot be detected. Even the main meridians that were not visible in the root test and display of the pelvis can be seen at a glance.
At this moment, Master Ming Zong noticed a strange energy coming from Zheng Qiu's meridians. The energy felt ethereal and empty, but in fact it was solid and thick. Master Mingzong's energy came into contact with it, and it was pushed out directly.
He was taken aback, knowing that Zheng Qiu was just a child without any cultivation, and he used at least the Qi Condensation Realm cultivation just now, this strange energy must be "Wood Spirit", and only "Wood Spirit" Something magical has such power.
Wait, Master Mingzong suddenly thought of a key that was almost overlooked.
If the "wood spirit" has always been on Zheng Qiu's body, why didn't he find it before? In the Fangcao Building, I used this method to detect the meridians before. Why didn't the "wood spirit" respond at that time?
Master Mingzong shifted his gaze to the spirit-testing roulette on the ground. Could it be that this roulette has the function of awakening the spirit besides measuring the spirit.
"Master, why did my shoulders itch again, it was when you put your hand on it just now."
"That's the master checking your bones."
Master Ming Zong narrowed his eyes and thought about it. The strange qi just now left a deep impression on him. If the "wood spirit" exists in the form of qi, wouldn't it be possible to create a kind of correspondence based on the "wood spirit"? practice.
He couldn't help admiring himself secretly, this was really a genius idea.
"Apprentice, Master has thought of a way that may allow you to practice life skills."
"real?"
"real,
When you return to Fangcao Peak, the master will teach you how to practice. "
Master Ming Zong pulled Zheng Qiu back along the original road. The cave extends in all directions, thanks to Master Ming Zong who left a mark on the way in, and only then did he find the way he walked.
After turning over a stone wall, the two of them stepped into the water and lowered their heads to check. It turned out that the black water of the swamp had flowed here.
Can't let the water keep gushing in, must keep the spirit testing roulette, Ming Zong picked up Zheng Qiu and flew forward directly, intending to rush to the entrance of the cave as soon as possible.
The speed of flying is much faster than walking. Those narrow openings that were difficult to fly through were blasted away by the flame of the master. Soon, they found the map.
On the ramp in front of the map, black water was rolling down the waves. Master Mingzong thought about it, but he didn't let Zheng Qiu go. He stepped on the map and wiped the curse pattern drawn on the map with his foot, but the curse pattern only wiped off one of the lines, and the map returned to the way the paper should have.
Then he rolled up the map, shook the water droplets on it, and led Zheng Qiufei up the ramp.
After a while, Zheng Qiu saw a small white dot appeared on the black cave wall above, and then the white dot continued to expand, which was the entrance of the cave.
Swish, the harsh light suddenly enveloped Zheng Qiu, he couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his eyes, after a while, his eyes gradually adapted to the light outside, and he found himself standing on the map. And the map turned into a slate again, and it seems that the master cast a spell on it again.
Master Mingzong flew near the entrance of the cave, raised his hand and waved an air wave towards the top of the mountain wall, and smashed down several boulders to block the influx of black water.
After walking around the blocked hole, the master was still worried, so he pulled a lot of thatch to plug the gap, and finally he brought gravel, branches and leaves to disguise the hole as if the boulder fell naturally.
After doing all this, he found a pole, flew back to the map, and took Zheng Qiu to paddle out of the rotten water swamp.
The sun is gradually rising from the mountains, it should be early morning now, Zheng Qiu looked through the backpack, the herbs in it were about to run out, counting the days, he and his master had already stayed in the cave for two and a half days.
The thatch in the swamp was very long and would always fall on the map. Zheng Qiu sat in the front and kept pushing aside the thatch leaves that were in the way. When he pushed aside another piece of thatch, a piece of cloth came into view. The cloth was black, and it was inconspicuous mixed in the black water.
Zheng Qiu reached out to grab it, hey, there is something under the strip of cloth. He increased his strength, and the thing underneath shook, it was so heavy, and he still couldn't pull it out.
"Master, there is something under this cloth strip, which is quite heavy."
Master Mingzong put down the pole, went to Zheng Qiu's side, took the cloth strip and pulled it hard, a big guy was dragged out of the black water, with arms and legs, it was actually a person.
This startled Zheng Qiu, he moved behind the master: "Master, this..."
"Don't be afraid, it's just a person." Master Ming Zong turned the man over, wiped off the mud on his face, and knelt down to check.
At this moment, the apprentice exclaimed from behind: "Master, I know this person!"
