Chapter 1: Killing the White Tiger

"The white tiger evil is destined to cause misfortune."

Sneer Tian held a piece of yellow paper with the upper left corner marked "Xiaxiazhu", looked at the two cold sentences on it, and sat down in front of the statue of Medicine King Bodhisattva.

The fake monk holding the lotus tube looked at the sallow and depressed Sneer Tian with pity, put the lotus tube on the altar table, gave him a nondescript clasped palm salute, showed a fake smile that was neither embarrassing nor embarrassing, and persuaded him.

: "Little benefactor, the mortal world is suffering, and life is so difficult! The poor monk looked at the benefactor's face with a haggard face, and he was filled with worry. If things go on like this, I'm afraid it will damage his health! Although the lot you just drew is a low-end lot, it is a life-threatening crime.

The white tiger evil is only a matter of one or two years. After these two years, the donor will have good fortune and everything will go smoothly!"

Leng Xiaotian listened to his eloquent speech, as if he still had two brushes, so he asked for advice: "Master, is there any way to avoid the White Tiger Evil? To be honest with you: my fortune this year is exactly what this sign says.

: Unlucky as hell, misfortunes never come singly, it’s really all bad luck! On the third day of the first lunar month of the new year, my mother passed away. After school started, I went to look for my crush and found her walking with a handsome young man on her arm.

, I almost suffered from low self-esteem at that time; the final exam was about to come, and a blood test at the school infirmary revealed that I had hepatitis B. The school immediately advised me to drop out of school... You said: In just six months, I suffered the loss of my mother.

Falling out of love and getting sick are three blows. If I don’t worry about it in my heart, how can I still be happy?"

"Calm down! Donor, be calm!"

When Leng Xiaotian heard the word "calm", he was a little bit dumbfounded: "Master, you are still keeping pace with the times. You have used Internet language. The question is: How do you want me to be calm? I can't buy any medicine to treat hepatitis B now.

I can’t afford it, so I can only drink brown sugar water at home, and try to urinate every day to try to get rid of more hepatitis B virus. But it is a fantasy to cure hepatitis B by this method and go back to school!"

The monk clasped his hands and recited "Amitabha", looked up and down at Leng Xiaotian, and said: "Donor, the poor monk sees that you are handsome, intelligent and polite. You will definitely not be a person who has been living under others for a long time in the future. You have to cheer up and get through it."

This level. Well, there is a Yaowang Cave on the mountain behind the temple. It is said that it was the place where the medicine king Li Shizhen wrote books and boiled medicine in his later years.

It was completed in this cave. It is midsummer now. The donor can go to this cave to rest and cool down, calm down and calm down. Maybe the Medicine King Bodhisattva will appear and bless you to drive away the illness!"

Leng Xiaotian heard him say that he was "handsome" and smiled bitterly. He couldn't help but think of the letter Su Xiaodan replied to when she wrote a letter to confess her love to Su Xiaodan last year. There was only one unfinished sentence in the letter: "If only you could be ten taller."

Centimeters...".

These words were like a ruthless dagger, cutting through the illusion of beautiful love in the heart of the nineteen-year-old Leng Xiaotian.

Su Xiaodan is a second-year student in the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama and the daughter of the deputy mayor of Leng Xiaotian's hometown. Leng Xiaotian met her at a gathering of fellow villagers.

When they first met, he was completely fascinated by Su Xiaodan's pure appearance and tall figure. Regardless of the huge gap between their families and looks, he relied on his reputation as the number one talent at Capital University to participate in international university debates.

With Sai's eloquence, he launched a passionate love offensive towards Su Xiaodan.

At first, Su Xiaodan didn't refuse him very much. Every time he went to her dormitory, he was very enthusiastic. Lengxiaotian invited her to go for a walk, and she didn't refuse. She was often made to giggle by his witty remarks, as if she appreciated it.

His appearance.

After a period of time like this, Lengxiaotian had the illusion that he had firmly captured the heart of this little beauty and fellow countryman, so he mustered up the courage to write a letter to her. Unexpectedly, her reply was

He gave him a blow to the head, and in the heartbreaking pain, he finally saw the huge gap between himself and Su Xiaodan: he was the son of an out-and-out farmer, and she was the precious daughter of the deputy mayor; he

She is 1.66 meters tall, and she is 1.71 meters tall. When two people walk together, it will be as incongruous as possible. I am very poor and can barely maintain my studies with scholarships and grants from the school, so sometimes I want to treat her to a meal.

She couldn't even afford to eat. And the boyfriends of the female classmates in her dormitory often took them to the most upscale hotels in the capital to eat European meals...

After figuring out these points, Leng Xiaotian went from intense pain to extreme low self-esteem. He was depressed every day and often had insomnia at night.

What's even worse is that due to excessive depression, liver qi damage, and the hepatitis B virus that he contracted from unknown sources, he actually contracted acute jaundice and hepatitis, and was forced to drop out of school and go home to recuperate...

After coming out of Yaowang Temple, Lengxiaotian walked listlessly under the hot midday sun. He felt that the white sunlight was particularly dazzling and made his eyes hurt.

He suddenly remembered that the monk asked him to go to the Yaowang Cave in the back mountain to escape the summer heat. He thought that it was okay anyway, and it would be okay to go to the cave to cool down, so he turned around and climbed up the back mountain.

Yaowang Cave is halfway up the mountain behind Yaowang Temple. When Leng Xiaotian was a child, he and his superstitious mother went to the cave to burn incense and heard her mother tell many magical legends about this cave.

It is said that common ailments such as headaches and brain swelling will be miraculously eliminated if you sit in the northwest corner of this cave for a day or two, and the whole person will feel refreshed and comfortable.

It is said that drinking the groundwater flowing out of this cave can strengthen your body and prolong your life. Unfortunately, this groundwater stopped flowing decades ago.

As a contemporary college student, Leng Xiaotian certainly did not believe in these mythical legends. He just wanted to go to the cave to rest and relax, to rest his mind and talk through the scorching days.

The entrance of Yaowang Cave is very large, like a large conference hall. There are many sharp and round stones standing ruggedly inside, and large and small stalactites hang from the top of the cave like ice waterfalls.

Walking into the cave, a cool wind blew in my face, making my whole body feel cold, and the hot feeling disappeared without a trace in an instant.

After slowly adapting to the dim light in the cave, Leng Xiaotian began to look around at this magical cave.

Suddenly, he found that what he was stepping on seemed not to be soil, nor a hard stone, but a slightly blackened blue brick. He lowered his head and took a closer look: yes, it was a very old blue brick with some growth on it.

of moss.

Looking further ahead, through the light coming from the cave entrance, you can vaguely see a path paved with blue bricks, like a winding blue python among the rocks, leading to the northwest corner of the cave.

Who built such a path in this remote cave? What is its purpose?

With these doubts, Leng Xiaotian walked along the green brick path to the cave wall. There, there was a smooth and flat stone wall, about two meters long, wide and high, like a huge square, inlaid on the cave wall.

It forms a sharp contrast with the surrounding uneven cave walls.

Leng Xiaotian touched the square with his hand. It felt like it was dug out manually, otherwise it would not be so smooth and smooth.

He took two steps back and squinted his eyes to look at the square stone wall carefully. Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind: Why does this square stone wall look more and more like a door?

With this idea, Leng Xiaotian began to pay attention to the abnormalities around the stone wall. He groped with his hands on the left, right and bottom edges of the stone wall, and tried to push it with his shoulders. But the result made him very disappointed: there were no gaps on the edge of the stone wall, and

No matter how hard he pushed it, it didn't happen like what was described in many martial arts novels. The stone wall suddenly cracked and the inside suddenly opened up...

Lengxiaotian felt disappointed and sat down on the ground, leaning against the cold stone wall, breathing heavily.

After breathing for a while, Lengxiaotian looked around unwillingly, and suddenly found a bell-like stone hanging from the wall of the cave on the left. It seemed to be empty inside.

He quickly got up and walked under the stone rut. He bent down and looked into the stone rut from below. Sure enough, it was empty. He put his hand in and groped inside for a while. Suddenly he felt a groove. Then he touched it with his fingers.

Look, it turns out to be made of iron.

It feels like this groove is a keyhole.

Lengxiaotian became excited all of a sudden, and searched around the groove with his hands to see if there was a key. But after touching it back and forth a dozen times, it was all smooth, not even a pebble inside.

After taking his hand out, he looked around the stone wall to see if there was any similar hollow stone, but he never found it.

If there is a keyhole, there must be a key. But where is the key?

Lengxiaotian thought for a while and stared at the green bricks on the ground.

He tried to step on it piece by piece. When he stepped on it, he suddenly felt that a brick seemed to be loose. He bent down and moved the brick away. He found a small silver box inside and opened it.

The box, with a bright golden key lying at the bottom of the box.

Lengxiaotian couldn't wait to pick up the golden key, ran under the hollow stone rut, fumbled for the keyhole inserted into the stone rut with the golden key, and twisted his fingers hard. There was only a "click" sound, and it seemed to open.

What kind of mechanism is there?

Then, the sound of "click-click-click" continued to be heard from inside the stone wall, like many huge winches being crisscrossed, and the entire stone wall trembled with the sound of "click-click, click".

Sneer Tian took a few steps back and stared nervously at the smooth and flat stone wall like a door, just like Alibaba after reciting the "Open Sesame" spell, waiting for a miracle to appear.

A miracle really happened.

After a burst of noise and a burst of trembling, the smooth cave wall suddenly and slowly opened a crack in the middle. The crack was expanding little by little, and soon it turned into a square door that could accommodate

Four adults walked in abreast.

When all the noise disappeared and silence returned to the cave, Leng Xiaotian stepped into the door.

Inside the door is a small alleyway that is not long. It is very dark in the alleyway, but there seems to be light at the end of the alleyway.

Lengxiaotian walked for about ten minutes touching the cave wall. After turning a small corner, his eyes suddenly opened up: he saw a cave that was larger than the entrance outside. There were many caves on the left side of the cave that were diagonally downward.

The small holes opened directly penetrate the cave wall and lead to the cliff outside. The light from outside leaks in through these small inclined holes, but the rainwater cannot float in, so the cave is not only well-lit, but also very dry.

The most surprising thing is: the ground of this cave is not soil, but a whole rock. On the ground of this huge rock, there are ten rows of semicircular things like heads, like many quilts.

People buried alive at shoulder height with only their heads exposed.

Lengxiaotian was startled at first, but when he kicked open a "head", he found that it was just a clay pot sealed with mud, and the "head" was the lid of the clay pot.

When the lid of the clay pot was kicked open, he smelled a strong aroma of wine coming out of the clay pot, which made him drunk!
