Chapter 18: I have money in my arms and I am not worried (asking for monthly tickets) Lin Jue did not leave. Instead, while it was still early and the Yang energy was not at its strongest, he climbed up a nearby bamboo mountain, meditated, breathed in and out, felt the spiritual rhythm, and absorbed the five energies. The wind blows clothes and hair, and the bamboo forest on the mountain is filled with rustling sounds. This is when the mind is calmest. After practicing for a while and resting for a while, he ate two vegetable dumplings and then hid in the shade of the bamboo forest. Lin Jue unexpectedly discovered that there was one more article in the ancient book: To send a dream is to entrust a dream to someone else and to enter into a dream and create dreams. Dreamers are in the illusory world. There are seven or eight ways to enter dreams and create dreams in the world, which can be roughly divided into two categories: one is called dream summoning, which is only mastered by gods and a few monsters, except for Taoists who use the power of dream gods to summon dreams; the other is called dream sending, which is to use magic to send yourself or the illusion you created into other people's dreams, and it can be practiced. This is the method of sending dreams. "Ok?" Lin Jue was surprised and thought about it carefully.
I don't know when this appeared... Maybe I fell asleep last night, so I didn’t feel anything. Although he was alone in the forest at this time, Lin Jue also assumed his usual posture of reading a book, placing his hands on the pages very naturally, without any abnormality. Suddenly, words sounded in my mind, explaining the method of sending dreams. However, this "dream sending" technique is much more complicated and advanced than "breathing" and "fire-aversion". Although the explanation of the words is still complete and detailed, this completeness and detail is also based on a certain preliminary foundation. Firstly, this spell is not something that Lin Jue, who has just learned the simplest and most primitive method of nourishing qi, can use. Secondly, this spell appeared out of thin air in ancient books. If a person has a master, he should master a lot of knowledge about cultivation and spells, and learn some simpler spells related to "sending dreams" before the master will let him learn "sending dreams". Lin Jue listened at this time and could only feel that this speech still explained every aspect of this spell, but he still didn't understand many things. If I had not succeeded in visiting the immortals and seeking the truth, I would have to rely on this book to learn more related but simpler and more basic spells. "..." Lin Jue had no choice but to put the book down temporarily. As for why he was confronted with a dream the first time in the Wang Family Ancestral Hall in Hengcun, but did not cause any reaction in the ancient book, Lin Jue thought it was because the magic spell used by the person was the "dream-calling" spell that could not be learned. Slowly noon passed. This is when the sun is at its hottest. The monks in the temple mainly eat grains, and they don't have much to do every day, so they naturally feel sleepy after meals and take a nap. No one comes to stay at this time, so the temple is very quiet. Not just temples. At this time, most of the merchants and travelers who came from the previous node have not arrived here yet. The occasional pedestrians have to avoid the scorching sun and find a cool place to rest and take a nap, so there is no one on the mountain road below. Under the bright sunlight, only the green bamboo forest sways in the wind, the mountain road is illuminated, and the whole world can't hear any sound except the chirping of insects. Lin Jue has already gone down the mountain and returned to the back of the temple. There are not many bamboo leaves in the bamboo forest, probably because they were burned by the monks. However, there is human feces in the middle, so you have to be careful to avoid it. After finding a small hill and a small pit, Lin Jue began to dig down.
Even at this moment, he was still a little dazed by what happened last night, and he was still not completely sure that he could dig something up. There was always one or two points off in ten thousand. Until you dig out the wet mud and hit something hard. Lin Jue dug out two pottery jars. When the pottery jar was opened, there were some official silver, copper coins, jewelry and jade on both sides, as well as some personal items such as brand names. It looks like the property is divided equally between the two parties. "really……" What happened last night was indeed not a dream. What the two ghosts said was indeed true. Lin Jue felt awe-inspiring and at the same time, felt relieved. These two ghosts, especially the one with the surname Su, are indeed deeply affectionate and loyal. After hesitating for a moment, he took out five taels of silver from each of the two jars, which was the smallest piece of silver in the jar. When he had ten taels in total, he was almost satisfied. This was a gift from the two of them, so there was really no need to refuse. He put the silver in his arms and planned to bury the two jars back. But after a little thought, I felt that something was wrong. This place is too close to the temple, so the two jars had been buried here before and naturally no one had discovered them. But now that I have dug them up, a lot of new soil has come out, and the traces are difficult to cover up. Not to mention the monks in the temple, if a merchant or traveler accidentally finds them while going to the bathroom, he will probably make a fortune. And they probably can't trust these monks. "I'll take all the other jewelry and valuables with me and hand them over to your families. If you can't find them, come back and bury them here. It's only two or three hundred miles away, and the trip, including the search, won't take more than ten days." Lin Jue said in the forest. He felt at ease and didn't care whether they heard him or not. He wrapped the contents of the two jars with cloth and left. …… With an extra ten taels of money, the journey was much easier. I felt much less worried about this, and I walked more easily and with more confidence. Sometimes, when I really didn't want to eat dry food, I would buy two steamed buns and a bowl of wontons from a tea stall or shop. Before we knew it, the bamboo forest along the road had been replaced by woods. Danxun and Qiuru counties are adjacent to each other, and indeed not far away. A journey of two or three hundred miles would only take Lin Jue four or five days if he walked slowly. However, it took some time to find their village. Although the population movement is not strictly controlled these days, it is still relatively closed. More than ten years seem to have brought little change to the rural villages. Lin Jue successively found Su Village and Lao Village, and successfully inquired about the families of Mo Laifeng and Su Xiaojin. They are not living well, but they are still there. Lin Jue handed the two packages to their families without hesitation. There is no thought of keeping it all to myself. Because rebirth is a rare opportunity, no one knows this better than Lin Jue. Life is short, and living comfortably is more important than anything else. "Brother Su's body was buried by the monks in the temple right behind the attic, together with his good friends. I don't know what the monks in the temple are like, so I don't know if there are any burial objects." Lin Jue said to Su Xiaojin's family who found him later, "Brother Su's fallen leaves cannot return to his roots, and his soul cannot rest in peace. He asked me to find him in his dream, and asked me to take his body back." The people here attach great importance to clan and family ties, which is the strongest bond in the world. Therefore, Lin Jue is not too worried about whether they will go to the temple to retrieve the two bodies.
When I mentioned the burial objects, I felt less worried. Lin Jue left here with peace of mind. As he walked, he couldn't help but take out the silver from his arms in a place where no one was around, weighed it in his hand, and held it in front of his eyes to examine it. Not only did I have the money now, but after finishing my work, I felt much more at ease holding it and spending it, and my steps became much lighter. So he continued on his journey to find immortals and learn the truth. This place is not far from Qiyun Mountain. Lin Jue did not concentrate on looking for Mount Qiyun and Mount Yi. He also went to tea stalls and taverns to ask passers-by. He even went to a storyteller's tavern in the city when he went to Danxun County. He chatted with the storyteller and asked if there were any masters who knew magic or which famous mountains or temples had real immortal masters. Sometimes there were no answers, and sometimes there were some answers, but no matter how hard Lin Jue tried, it was actually difficult to find the answers. It seems that spiritual practice is not common in this world. There are relatively few experts. After much difficulty, they found some sorcerers and witches, and guessed that most of them had some skills. However, these people only cared about money. Lin Jue was afraid of being cheated because he had little money, but he also felt that he was not in that urgent situation. Ten taels of silver would not last long, let alone be used like this. The weather is getting hotter day by day. …… It's already the end of April. The midday sun was so bright that people could not open their eyes. Many animals in the mountains had also hidden themselves. On the gravel-covered and rutted mountain road, a man dressed as a scholar was walking slowly. There was a piece of cloth on top of the bookcase, which just blocked the sun above his head and provided him with some shade. As for the shoulders and other parts of the body, they had already been sunburned. "Why is there no one on this road?" Lin Jue stopped by the river, took out a bamboo water bottle, drank a sip of water, then bent down and filled it up in the river. Then he stood up and looked forward. A river that bends into a semicircle, the water is turquoise, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. The equally curved road along the river is lined with lush grass. The road surface is shiny in the sun, insects are chirping, and the occasional cry of monkeys can be heard in the mountains, but other than that, there is really no one. Are they all taking a nap on the roadside? But I didn’t see anyone taking a nap. Lin Jue couldn't help but feel confused. Is there some ferocious beast here? Or is there a monster? However, there are no large beasts like tigers here, only jackals and clouded leopards at most. Demons and ghosts usually do not appear on the official road during the day. What Lin Jue is more afraid of are bandits and thieves. Not to mention Lin Jue, a teenager who had only learned some acting skills, even many masters and magicians in the story were afraid of the swords of warriors and the arrows shot from the dark. When princes and nobles ordered their capture and execution, they often had to hide. "..." Lin Jue calmed himself down, picked up his book, and continued on his way.
The road followed the winding river, and Lin Jue followed the winding road and gradually walked into a shade of trees. But there were only thick trees all around and only monkeys jumping in the distance. There were no traces of bandits or thieves, nor any signs of human footsteps, which made Lin Jue relax a little. Maybe I should find a place in the shade to take a nap? Or find a secluded place and wait for the pedestrians behind you to come before walking together? Lin Jue thought and looked around. "wrong!" Lin Jue suddenly froze—— Is the monkey in the distance too big? Almost as tall as a human! What’s important is that when Lin Jue saw them, they also saw Lin Jue. First, a monkey jumped onto the treetop, looked down from above, and carefully examined the road. His eyes seemed full of aggression even from a distance. Then he made two "Woo" sounds, and many monkeys looked towards him. "Wow..." The forest began to shake violently. A huge human-like monkey was climbing through it, approaching Lin Jue rapidly. A monkey shouted, showing its mouth full of sharp teeth. "!" Lin Jue seemed to understand why there was no one on this road. Without hesitation, he turned around and ran! However, the running and climbing speed of these monkeys is not much slower than that of humans. It is not known whether a normal person can outrun them. Lin Jue, with a book box on his back, definitely cannot outrun them. Lin Jue was seen gasping for breath and looking back as he ran madly, but he could only hear the sound of the treetops shaking getting closer and closer to him. He also saw the treetops shaking getting closer and closer to him, and he suddenly felt anxious. "no!" Lin Jue made a prompt decision, turned around and dropped his bookcase, grabbed the ancient book and the knife from it, and continued to run forward. But he couldn't help showing a tangled look on his face—— The silver and money are still in the book! It was not easy to get ten taels of silver! Although this ancient book will have a profound impact on his future journey to seek immortality and is of course the most precious, money also plays a significant role. As Lin Jue was thinking, he suddenly felt that there was no one chasing him, and he couldn't help but look back. He saw a dozen monkeys as tall as humans surrounding his bookcase, tearing the top of it violently, and then turning the contents inside out, making a mess. When they found dry food, they immediately scrambled to share it, and when they found a water bottle, they just threw it aside, and their clothes were also scattered everywhere. Lin Jue's eyes immediately widened. But then he saw an exceptionally tall ape standing up straight, raising its head and looking at him, with scrutiny in its eyes. (End of this chapter)
