Strange Tales: The Yin-Yang Celestial Master

Qi Buyang felt something slipping across his face, a slightly rough warm touch, slowly, as if touching the most precious thing, sliding gently and nostalgicly from the eyelids to the corners of the mouth, this strange feeling made him I got goosebumps all over my body.

Trying to break through the darkness, he saw the wet curved stone top above his head as soon as he opened his eyes. He turned his head slightly and looked at the people around him.The man didn't show the slightest panic because of being caught for his perverted behavior, he just calmly withdrew his fingers and smiled at Qi Buyang as before, "Are you awake?"

Qi Buyang moved his arms and touched the cold and hard stone wall beside him, so he propped himself up and sat up. The person beside him wanted to stretch out his hand, but he frowned and avoided it. A complex light flashed in the person's eyes, Withdrew his hand embarrassingly.Qi Buyang found that the place where he was lying was a stone bed with a layer of mattresses on it. Looking around, they seemed to be in a small stone cave, and obvious traces of artificial excavation could be seen on the stone wall. The sound of water dripping can be heard faintly-it is very humid here.

Seeing him looking around, the man comforted him apologetically: "The conditions here are really not good, I can only wrong you for a few days."

Qi Buyang didn't take his affection very much, instead he leaned against the stone wall, showing a guarded look, "Where is this?" He pursed his lips, as if he didn't want to call out that familiar name, "...Uncle Lin , why did you bring me here?"

Lin Huaigan didn't mind his reaction at all, and blinked at him, "This is my secret base, if you're here, that person won't be able to find you."

"That person? You mean Mr. Luo?"

"That's right, it's very safe here, don't worry." Lin Huaigan said, and habitually stretched out his hand to touch his head. Qi Buyang's body froze. Make him a little uncomfortable.

"Let me go back, Uncle Lin." Qi Buyang softened his voice: "If you can't find me, Mr. Luo will be worried." Speaking of this, he sneaked a look at Lin Huaigan, who seemed unmoved , and added: "When he is worried, he doesn't know what troubles he will make."

"Don't worry about it, we'll take care of it." Lin Huaiqian said flatly.

"You?" Qi Buyang captured this information sensitively, "Who else?"

Lin Huaigan didn't want to say more, got up and said: "Yangyang, you can rest here with peace of mind, there are books there, if you are bored, you can read." He pointed to the stone table and stone bench at the corner of the cave, " It will be cold at night, I will bring you a hot water bottle later."

After finishing speaking, no matter what Qi Buyang wanted to say, he just left a lantern by his feet, turned around and left.

There was a light on outside the cave, and his figure was reflected on the uneven stone wall by the fire, looking a bit hideous, and he could also hear the voice of someone talking to him, judging from the tone of his speech, the other party might be one of his subordinates, But Qi Buyang waited on the stone bed for a while, but no one came in again.The voices outside were gradually becoming inaudible, as if someone had taken away the light source, and the corridor outside the cave was dark again, leaving only the light of the small lantern in the cave he was in, the orange-yellow halo in the dark The damp cave seemed very warm, but Qi Buyang could not feel any warmth.

He slowly climbed down from the stone bed, held the lamp, and groped along the stone wall inch by inch. After a while, he circled the entire cave, but found nothing—except for the stone table and bench in the corner, which he He lifted the lamp up again, and the light shone on the entrance of the cave.

Uncle Lin didn't seem to say he couldn't go out...

Thinking of this, Qi Buyang stepped out without hesitation.Outside is a long and narrow corridor, the light of the lantern is limited, it can only illuminate more than one meter, and the rest is completely dark, extending to the left and right into the depths of the darkness with no end in sight.After thinking about it, he walked in the direction that Lin Huaigan left just now.After not walking far, the corridor gradually widened, and lights reappeared in front of it. The light source came from the oil lamp in the small hole cut out on the stone wall.

After a while, the space suddenly opened up, forming a nearly circular open space. There were several stone tables and benches on the open space, and this corridor also came to an end.To Qi Buyang's surprise, there were neat stone steps at the end, which reminded him of the underground passage he saw in the Tingfeng Building before he lost consciousness, and he couldn't help guessing that maybe this was the bottom of the Tingfeng Building, and he could return to the ground by going up.

However, on the stone bench in front of the stairs, there were two men in black suits, which were undoubtedly the hallmark of the Lin family.Seeing Qi Buyang, the two stood up almost at the same time. When Qi Buyang thought they were going to rush over and grab him, they just nodded respectfully to him and called out: "Master Qi."

Qi Buyang collected himself, and asked calmly, "Where's Uncle Lin?"

"The Patriarch is out, just tell us if you have anything to say." The two spoke politely, but their bodies blocked the stone steps intentionally or unintentionally.

Seeing this, Qi Buyang withdrew his gaze, "I want to talk to him."

"The master will be back soon," they said, "you can go back to your room and wait. If you want something to eat, we will deliver it in a while."

"No need..." Qi Buyang took a deep look at the stairs leading to the ground behind them, and said softly: "Thank you." Then he turned around calmly and walked back step by step.The two people behind him stood in place all the time, watching him return to the darkness when he came back.

Naturally, he was not as cautious as before when he went back. Qi Buyang carefully calculated that it took about 5 minutes to walk from the stone steps to the previous cave. It can be seen that the distance is not far, but it must have exceeded the diameter of the small island where Tingfeng Tower is located. A corridor even passes through the underground of two adjacent islands?

Standing at the entrance of the cave where he first woke up, Qi Buyang glanced inside, then raised his head to look at the direction of the corridor on the left. This underground facility should not be so simple. He wanted to see how big it was, so he ignored Lin Huaigan. His subordinates told him to stay in the room obediently, and walked to the left where he hadn't walked.

He held the lamp in one hand, and carefully supported the stone wall with the other. Judging from the increasingly slippery touch of his hands, it seemed that the further he went, the more humid the environment became.Suddenly, a bean of light appeared in front of him. It was the same as the one seen on the stone steps before. A small oil lamp was placed in the groove of the stone wall. The wick was about to burn out, and the flame looked like it was floating on the oil surface. .

There is something unusual about this lamp.

Qi Buyang couldn't say it, but he felt something was wrong in his heart. He looked back and looked at the passage that was submerged in darkness again. He walked this way, and there was no other light source in the passage, and he walked a few steps forward, and there was no other light in front of him. .This lonely oil lamp should not be used for lighting, but if it is not for lighting, why is there a lamp here?

Is there something here that needs lighting?

Qi Buyang's heart moved, he put the lantern close to the stone wall, and carefully observed the rough stone surface to see if there was anything strange.Soon, he found a hidden gap, groped along the gap one by one, and could vaguely make out the square outline - this should be a door.But no matter how hard he pushed, the stone wall remained motionless.At this time, the small oil lamp next to it had burned the last bit of wick, but the flame did not go out, but suddenly spread along the oil surface, forming a small sea of ​​flames in an instant, and the sudden rise of the flame scared Qi Buyang who was concentrating on studying the stone wall With a jump, he quickly turned his head and glanced at the oil lamp.

Fortunately, there was not much lamp oil left, and it was about to bottom out after a while, and the flame gradually shrank and retreated into the lamp.Oddly enough, Qi Buyang was a little curious, and subconsciously reached out his hand, wanting to touch it, whether it was very hot, but when his fingertips carefully touched the warm outer wall of the lamp, he felt a little strange to the touch, so he poked it with a little force. , the small lamp remained motionless.

Qi Buyang raised his eyebrows, and simply used his whole hand to see if he could pick it up, but he couldn't, because the lamp was fixed here.

why?

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, the hand holding the lamp was changed to twisting, and he turned it slowly with a little force. The upper door is also gradually revealed.Qi Buyang took a few steps back, watching the stone door slowly open, turning in the direction the lamp rotated just now, and finally erected in the middle, forming narrow entrances on both sides.

The lantern in his hand can only illuminate a small distance from the entrance. It seems to be a stone room. Compared with the cave he woke up in, the surrounding stone walls are much more regular. He lifted the lamp to his chest and walked in carefully. Only then did he realize that The space inside is not big, empty, nothing.But even if he lost all his magic power, as an outstanding celestial master, Qi Buyang's five senses are still much more sensitive than ordinary people, just like now, although there is nothing in this room at first glance, he still feels a little life around him.

He stopped, held his breath, and after a while, he heard the faint sound of breathing, which came from the corner on the left.Qi Buyang slowly approached that corner, and a figure was reflected in the light, no, more than one!

A thin person curled up in the corner with long hair. It was a young girl. Some messy long hair blocked her face, and there was another person floating beside her—it was indeed floating without touching the ground. It doesn't have any weight, and the body presents a strange sense of transparency - it is a little girl who is not yet an adult.

Hearing footsteps approaching, the girl sitting in the corner trembled and shrank back.

Qi Buyang recognized them immediately, but he didn't expect that the two sisters he was looking for were here.Calling her name tentatively, the girl raised her head with blank eyes.She couldn't see, but she was sensitive to the sound, which she had heard and never forgot.

"Master Qi!" She called out firmly, and then tears fell from her dull eyes, "Have you come to save us?"

Qi Buyang hurriedly knelt down to comfort her, and asked her, "How did you come here?"

The blind girl shook her head. The arrival of Qi Buyang reassured her a lot, so she wiped away her tears, but her voice was still choked up, "I don't know. We're just taking a walk in Longhu Park as usual, and we're going to go back after a casual walk. Yes, but suddenly I heard footsteps, and then my sister pushed me and told me to 'run', I don't know what happened, my sister didn't make a sound anymore, I ran forward quickly, without my sister, I I fell down within a few steps, when the footsteps came behind me, covered my mouth and pulled me up, and then I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was here...I kept calling my sister, She didn't respond at all, did something happen to her? But I feel like she's by my side, right?" This was the first time she and her sister were separated after the car accident. "Qi Buyang.

"She's here." Qi Buyang said softly, his eyes fell on the little girl floating beside the girl.

"Why doesn't she speak?"

"She was fixed by the talisman." Qi Buyang stood up and carefully looked at the yellow talisman paper on the ghost's forehead.Soul-fixing talisman, this is not a complicated spell, it is usually used to subdue little ghosts, but it can only last for a few hours, but this talisman is different, the text on it has obviously been modified.

"Can you solve it?" The girl grabbed Qi Buyang's sleeve and asked eagerly.

Qi Buyang nodded, remembering that she couldn't see, he said again: "It should be possible." While speaking, he stretched out his hand to the talisman paper.

Just as his fingertips touched the corner of the talisman paper, a familiar voice came from behind, calling his name.

"Yangyang."

He turned around and saw Lin Huaigan standing at the junction of light and darkness. At this moment, the smile that had been hanging on the face of that kind uncle disappeared, and his face was a little cloudy, and he asked expressionlessly: "Where are you?" What are you doing here?"
