After hearing what I said, Li Huaishan immediately opened his eyes and stared at the oil lamp on the table.
The expression on his face became very deliberate.
He was obviously nervous, but he only pretended to be surprised.
Li Huaishan must be strong in front of me.
I have learned this outside the canyon.
The nervousness vaguely revealed on his face at this time seems to indicate that it has been so long since Li Huaishan entered the old man's house.
He should still be strong.
He has never seen anything like evil corpses and ghosts, so his mental endurance for similar things should be very poor.
Looking at Li Huaishan's expression, I frowned, and then tentatively said to him: "I'm afraid there are a lot of dirty things in this old house."
Li Huaishan was stunned for a moment: "What are dirty things?"
Of course he understood what these three words meant.
Now the surprise on his face was no longer there, only nervousness remained.
I sighed helplessly and said to Li Huaishan: "The Qiqi field here is seriously silted up.
As for you, you will inevitably feel uncomfortable if you don't see some things very much.
So remember, no matter what we see in the old village, No matter what, you have to keep your mind calm.
The more confused you are, the easier it is to fall for those things.
Didn’t the second master teach you some meditation formulas?
Repeat them silently in your heart, which can make you feel more at ease. " Li Huaishan retorted: "What are you talking about?
Whenever I get nervous, I won't get nervous if you get nervous."
I ignored him and took out the Yangxian, Baguaqian, Chen Mi and Yao Ya from my backpack, stuffed the Yao Ya into my pocket, wrapped the Yangxian with the Bagua Qian on my hand, and finally divided the Chen Mi into two parts.
One copy was placed on Li Huaishan, and the other was placed in my jacket pocket.
Li Huaishan took out two grains of old rice and looked at them: "What is this?
Is it edible?"
"The old rice specially made by the old family can help you resist evil spirits."
As I said this, I zipped up my backpack and placed it near the head of the bed.
Li Huaishan stretched his neck toward me: "Hey, Ruofei, tell me, is there something wrong with this old village?"
I said, "Of course there are problems, and they are quite big."
Li Huaishan: "I see you have been preparing for so long.
Do you plan to go out and explore?"
I shook my head: "We have been traveling the mountain road for so long, and we have no energy left.
Let's take turns to rest.
I took out the teeth just in case."
Before I said these words, Li Huaishan had already taken off his shoes and was going to lie on the bed.
But as soon as he heard the words "take turns to rest", he sat up straight again and raised his chin towards me: "You go to sleep first, I'll keep an eye on you for a while."
I took out two bottles of water from my backpack and threw one to Li Huaishan: "My physical fitness is better than yours, and I'm not as tired as you.
You go to sleep first, and I'll call you in four hours."
While I was talking, I glanced at my watch.
It was now three o'clock in the afternoon.
Li Huaishan is indeed approaching his limit.
When he entered the canyon just now, I felt that his knees barely bent when he walked.
It is estimated that as soon as he bent down, he would fall directly to the ground.
He knew his own body well, so Li Huaishan didn't shirk anymore and immediately lay down to sleep.
Li Huaishan has a great advantage.
He almost never snores when he sleeps, and even his breathing is very soft.
After he fell asleep, the room became very quiet.

Apart from his slight breathing, there was only the occasional crackling sound from the burning wick.
At first I didn't think it was anything, but as time went by, I felt more and more something was wrong.
These bamboo buildings are very old.
The clay that was originally fixed on the walls fell off, exposing large areas of bare bamboo strips.
In some places, there are even gaps running through the walls.
The building in front of me is not a special case.
When I was walking along the road, I noticed that every house along the road was so dilapidated.
It is said that the sound insulation effect of a wall like this is very poor, and Li Huaishan and I were living at the end of the second floor.
Through the gap in the north wall, we could see another bamboo building two or three meters away.
The two buildings were so close and the sound insulation was so poor that I couldn't hear anything from the other side.
To confirm, I also put my ear against the north wall, but I still couldn't hear anything except the occasional sound of wind in the canyon.
After that, I opened the window a little more and listened carefully to what was going on outside.
Except for the sound of the wind, there was dead silence.
Could it be that the residents here never speak or move around the house, spending every day in silence?
What's the difference between living like that and dying?
Thinking of this, I finally understood what was wrong with this village.
There was no life in this village, not even a trace of life.
The so-called anger can also be simply understood as vitality, which is a unique breath of living things.
Just like if someone is standing in front of you, even if you close your eyes, you can sometimes know that the other person is standing there.
This It's because you feel the anger in him.
But the feeling in this village right now is like I was standing in the dark with my eyes closed.
I clearly heard a clear sound of footsteps in front of me, but I couldn't determine where the footsteps came from, whether it came from a living person or someone else.
Something else.
Sun Chuansheng said, let me be careful about local people who act strangely, but in my opinion, those who live there are not necessarily human beings.
Thinking about this, I felt a little nervous myself, so I recited the Bagua chant in my heart and drew the Bagua symbols one by one in my mind.
When I calmed down, I locked the doors and windows, leaned against the corner of the bed, and carefully watched what was going on outside.
Four hours later, I woke up Li Huaishan and asked him to watch over me while I slept for four hours.
Before going back to bed, I specifically told Li Huaishan not to fall asleep again, and to wake me up as soon as possible if something happened.
Li Huaishan assured me that he would be able to stand up for his job well.
To be honest, I don’t trust him at all.
In the past eight months, when I was practicing in the morning, I often found that Li Huaishan stopped doing half a set of punches and just stood there, motionless. , walked over and took a look, only to find that this guy was asleep.
Sleeping standing up is one of Li Huaishan's unique skills.
Moreover, he was punching energetically one second before falling asleep, and then suddenly fell asleep the next second, which is really incredible.
But now I have no choice but to believe him.
After all, I am exhausted after walking on the mountain road for so long.
Li Huaishan was able to have a good sleep every night when walking on mountain roads, but it was difficult for me to fall asleep in the wilderness.
I always felt insecure and felt that wild beasts might appear in the middle of the night.
In eight days, I slept less than twenty hours in total.
At this time, I was lying on the bed.
Although only one side of the bed was against the wall, fortunately the room was not large.
I felt peaceful in my heart.
I quickly closed my eyes and entered a state where waking and sleeping meet.
I knew I wasn't asleep yet, but my head was so heavy that I was almost separated from the waking world. snap, snap, snap At this time, I heard the sound of water hitting the iron plate again, but before I could distinguish it carefully, I fell into a deep sleep.
In the past, I almost never dreamed, but I don’t know what happened today.
Not long after I fell asleep, a series of messy dreams began to flash before my eyes.

Those dreams were like fast-moving slides.
They only appeared once and then disappeared.
Before I could see the picture clearly, it disappeared from my eyes.
What's even weirder is that when I saw this scene flashing by quickly, I knew I was asleep and I knew I was dreaming, but I couldn't wake up and had no intention of waking up.
When the scene in my sight stabilized, I felt that my lips were hot and dry, and my throat felt as uncomfortable as being on fire.
At this time, I was standing in the endless desert.
The sun was shining down from the sky, almost melting me.
The air was steamed hot and dry by the yellow sand.
The heat wave rolled up a small amount of coarse sand and threw it on my face. , and slowly slid down, sticking to my sweaty neck.
I know it's a dream, but all the feelings are so real.
I tried to pull out the sunken soles from the sand, but found that I couldn't use any strength.
I covered my eyes with my hands and looked up at the sky.
A goshawk flew over my head, but when I When I turned my attention to it, it disappeared from my sight again.
At this moment, the sand dune under my feet trembled violently, and then the earth seemed to suddenly begin to shrink rapidly.
The sand dune that was originally a few hundred meters away from me suddenly came in front of me, but I didn't move at all.
After the sand dune arrived in front of me, I first experienced a brief period of darkness, and then saw the fast-moving clouds in the sky and the large sand dunes moving quickly towards me.
In that dark moment, it was as if my body was passing through the sand dune just now.
The sand dunes and clouds moved faster and faster, and my vision soon couldn't adapt to this speed.
All the surrounding scenes were pulled into continuous flowing lines by this extreme speed.
I started to feel dizzy and felt a little nauseous.
But my throat was dry and I couldn't spit it out at all.
Now I really want to wake up, but in the dream, my body and nerves seem to be out of my control.
Those sandy-yellow, blue, and white bright streamlines are still moving quickly.
I can only stare at them with wide eyes. , I feel like my brain is about to be torn apart. snap, snap, snap At this moment, the sound of water hitting the iron plate appeared again, sometimes near and sometimes far away, vaguely present and sometimes not at all.
It only appeared for a short period of time.
When it disappeared, the fast-moving sand dunes, blue sky, and white clouds in front of my eyes also disappeared, and the world in the dream was dark.
I thought I would see other scenes in my dream next, but there was no chance.
A sharp tremor came from my back and woke me up.
I sat up from the bed with a sigh and looked under the bed.
The foot of the bed and the ground shook rapidly for a short moment, and it took about four or five seconds before they completely stopped.
Everything was fine, why was there an earthquake suddenly:
