Chapter 37 Chapter 8 Yunyang

Not far from me, a baby suddenly crawled out of the dilapidated yard.The baby seemed to be about one year old, and his eyes were slightly red, maybe it was from crying for too long.His ears are still a little long, and his skin is a little red and black.The baby's frail body was wrapped in a very tattered dress.The baby seemed to see me, he smiled at me, and made a delicate voice: "Brother...Brother...Hold me..." I think this child is so pitiful that he was abandoned in a deserted village.This baby seems to be of the same background as mine. I was about to walk over to pick up the baby when a man's voice seemed to come from all directions: "Don't go over, go!" Then something hit my back hard. I smoked for a while, and I looked back, but I couldn't see anyone, only the old tree in the neighboring courtyard was shaking slightly.However, when I turned my head, the baby crawling on the ground was gone!

I opened my mouth wide open and stood there blankly.How could it be a blink of an eye, and the baby was gone.I suddenly felt an evil spirit spreading everywhere in this village.Following the flow of the air current, I finally reached the entrance of Xishui Village.I walked out without looking back. When I passed the stele, I opened my eyes wide, trying to remember the appearance of the stele.This stone tablet is blue-black, and the words Xishuicun on it are yellow, and the yellow imprint is still very clear. I left Xishui Village with a stomach full of doubts.After walking a certain distance, I looked back at Xishui Village again. That village gave me such an unreal feeling.I thought to myself, I'd better hurry back to the county town, where there are plenty of people and nothing weird will happen.

It's still cool in the woods for me, and my mind is a little clearer.Walking out of Xishui Village, I could hardly tell the direction.Under a big tree, I saw an ant nest there.I walked over excitedly. There were several caves in the same direction, and the direction of the caves must be south. I remember that we came from the north, and the county seat should be on the opposite side of the ant hole.I still rushed back to the county seat as soon as possible and called Xinhong.I was constantly annoyed, if I hadn't kept calling Teacher Ye in the car, maybe the phone wouldn't have run out of battery so quickly.I don't know what he wanted to say about the text message that Mr. Ye sent before, but I have a lot to ask him.

Walking in the wild, the most important thing is to keep walking, don't stop often.Especially if you want to walk in a straight line, you must not walk horizontally if you can walk vertically.I kept repeating these words in my mind, but the position of the tree here seemed to have changed.I remember that when I first came here, the path could still be walked straight, why are all the trees growing on the path now.I took a look at the big trees around me, and there seemed to be something wrong with them.I think back to when I was in Xishui Village, a man’s voice kept reminding me not to approach the baby. At that time, there was no living thing around me, except for an old tree.By the way, that old tree seems to be the same type as this forest!

I ran to the surrounding trees and observed them carefully.Yes, they are all the same kind.It seems that in that Xishui village, every yard has an old tree like this!At that time, I felt that there was a strange atmosphere in the yard. Could it be the reason of the old tree?However, even without this old tree, I still feel that there is one piece of furniture in the yard seems very unreasonable, although the yard there only needs a few pieces of furniture, which is very simple. I was walking in the dense woods, and it seemed that every tree was blocking my way. I couldn't walk in a straight line when I walked, and they all turned east and west.I have been in the woods for so long, and I have only seen one type of tree species, and have not seen other types of big trees.Inadvertently, on my side, I caught a glimpse of a person wandering in the woods.I took a closer look, and that person turned out to be the teacher Ye I had been looking for!How did he come here?I was very excited to catch up and exchange a few words with the teacher.It was a pleasure to see someone in this remote woods, but now it was my teacher, it was impossible not to be excited.I still have a lot of questions to ask Teacher Ye.

Just as I was about to chase after him, I didn't know what it was that twitched my shoulder severely. I endured the pain and looked back, but there was no one there.It's really strange how things like this always happen.When I turned my head around, a big tree was already in front of me.There was obviously nothing blocking me just now, why did such a big tree grow suddenly? I walked around the big tree suspiciously and looked ahead. Teacher Ye no longer knew where he had gone.I patted the big tree beside me angrily, and it made a very strange sound.I just froze there and didn't react for a long time.I took out water from my bag and poured it into my mouth.I must be suffering from heat stroke, why do I have messy hallucinations all day long.I drink more water to cool down!

"Hey, little brother. Where are you going?" An old voice came from the big tree. The water had just flowed down my throat, and I immediately squirted it out again when I heard the sound.I wiped my mouth nervously, looked at the big tree in disbelief, and stammered, "You...you... are you human?" But the big tree immediately stopped responding.It's midsummer now, and I was so hot that I felt irritable, so I couldn't help but kicked the big tree directly.The branch of the big tree swung towards me and hit me hard on the arm.The tree can move?I was so scared that I turned around and ran away.

There are really weird things happening this year.I saw the big tree hit me with a branch, so I recalled the scene in Xishui Village.Could it be that those old trees were talking at that time?They didn't seem to want me to get close to that baby, and they didn't know the origin of that baby, so they wouldn't even let me get close. Thinking about things as I ran, I didn't notice that a branch suddenly reached my feet and tripped me.I got up with so much pain, and then I wanted to kick the branch off, but the branch was retracted again. I heard the sound of someone approaching again, and following the sound, it turned out to be Teacher Ye again!He is not far from me.I was just about to call out to Mr. Ye loudly, but a thick and big tree fell towards me.I didn't even have a place to dodge, and I was firmly pressed to the ground by the big tree.The big tree is so heavy that I can hardly breathe, let alone shout loudly.As a result, I watched Teacher Ye walk away slowly.It took me a lot of effort to push the big tree away from me, and my stomach was aching from the weight of the big tree.

I gritted my teeth and sat under the big tree, and I was too lazy to run around anymore.The area of ​​the woods here must be huge, no matter how I run, I will be tortured to death by these damn big trees. I was a little surprised. Why did Mr. Ye come to this place? Could it be the interesting research he mentioned to me before?Then he might also know part of the reason why Uncle Zou came here.Uncle Zou came here for something, but he encountered an accident.I have to find Teacher Ye as soon as possible. If he suffers an accident like Uncle Zou, how can I be worthy of Teacher Ye who is so good to me.

The big tree suddenly beat me with its branches again, and I had nowhere to dodge, so I could only let them beat me.When I was sitting under the tree just now, I actually thought of something.That's probably why these trees are so weird, but I'm not sure if there are such things in the world. Enduring the pain of being beaten, I shouted loudly to these big trees: "Yunyang—!" When I yelled these two words, the trees really stood still and returned to normal!Sure enough, I guessed it right, and it was exactly the same as what was said in "Baopuzi". In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there was a Ge Hong Ge Xianweng who wrote a book "Baopuzi" in which he gave many names to many animals and plants.For example, in the current twelve zodiac signs, the mouse is called Shejun, the tiger is Yuli, the rooster is called General, the old man is called Zhangren, the snake and the monkey both have disobedience, one claims to be a widow, the other claims to be a man, and the pig is a god and a horse. The three males, the sheep is the master Long Yushi, and the most stunned is the nickname of the cow - the scholar.He didn't give a reason for his nickname, so I don't know why, maybe the scholars before the Jin Dynasty all had great strength?

Ge Hong said that when encountering these ghosts, they should be called by their first names.For example, if you encounter a talking tree, it is not a tree, but Yunyang, the dryad. If you just call its name, it will be fine.Maybe Yunyang thought in his heart: "Ah, I know you, so I'm sorry to bother you." Unexpectedly, these big trees are actually the tree spirit Yunyang that Ge Hong and Ge Xianweng said.However, I remember that in an unearthed ancient tomb of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there was a book that said that the place where the dryad cloud grows must have... what, I can't remember. I have been very sensitive to hearing since I was a child. At this time, I heard the sound of someone walking behind me.I turned my head vigilantly, only to see a ruthless blow head-on.When I fell down, I saw that the person who hit me was the peddler who sold us ancient books of the Western Han Dynasty! I don't know how long it took me to wake up.This is the second time I've been knocked out, and now it's this treacherous peddler who hit me!Why did the peddler knock me out?After I woke up, there was no sign of the peddler. There was only a blue-black stone tablet beside me, which still looked familiar. I rubbed my forehead gently, and then looked at the stele, which read: Xishui Village.This stele is exactly the same as the one I saw just now!This peddler knocked me out and dragged me to Xishui Village, what is he doing.I looked at Xishui Village in puzzlement, but saw a scene that surprised me. How did Xishui Village become like this? !
