Endless dust was falling from the sky, and the ground was covered with white ash everywhere.
Wu Gen dusted off the dust on his body and looked around in confusion, not knowing where he was.
The sky and the earth lost color, clouds covered the sun, everything was gray and gray, and not a single living thing could be seen around.
Wu Gen wandered alone between the dark sky and the earth. He walked for an unknown amount of time. A thick layer of ash had accumulated on his body, and even his hair and eyebrows were dyed gray.
"God damn me, arrest me and kill or cut me into pieces. Why are you torturing me like this?" Wu Gen couldn't stand the emptiness and loneliness anymore. He jumped around like a shrew and cursed, punching and kicking everyone around. .
The world is still empty and silent, only the dust is falling.
It turns out that loneliness is also a murderous poison. No wonder those who once garrisoned here went crazy and even committed suicide. If there is only one person left in a world, what is the use of this world and this body?
Gradually, Wu Gen became silent and just walked forward numbly.
Finally, Wu Gen couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed to the ground. His heart was ashes, and he lay in the ashes with his eyes closed, waiting to die.
Ashes covered the body, accumulating more and more, gradually turning into a tomb.
After a long time, a figure jumped up from the grave. Wu Gen held a knife in one hand, pointed at the sky and cursed, "I wonder if grandpa's nickname is Shi Zhuo'er? He is famous for being smelly and hard. You want me to die here, but it's not what you want."
"I am the Tiangang star in the sky, but I am forced to come down to the mortal world. I chopped off the horned dragon and used it as a belt, but when I saw my mother-in-law, I just ran away..." Roaring the slang in the village, Wu Gen waved his sword with one hand and strode forward.
After walking for a long time, the dust in the sky seemed to be getting smaller, and finally a ray of light appeared in the distance. In such a dim background, it looks quite eye-catching.
Wu Gen was overjoyed when he saw this. As long as there was a change, it would be better than staying here regardless of the swords and mountains and seas of fire. When he got closer, he stopped and stared blankly ahead.
What appeared in front of us were huge square stone gates, standing in rows abruptly in the space, with no side visible at a glance.
Standing in front of the stone gate, Wu Gen looked up at the towering tree like an ant.
The stone gate is in dilapidated condition, with faint writing marks on it, but I can't see clearly and I don't know where it leads.
After hesitating for a long time, Wu Gen walked towards the nearest stone gate. With a hard push, the stone door opened easily. Carefully walking in, the scene in front of you changed drastically, and you saw a vast ancient battlefield.
Looking around, the wind is howling, the flags are down, and the remaining soldiers are lying around.
Thunder and lightning roared in the sky, the sky was as red as a sea of blood, and the smell of blood spread over the dead ruins. The remains piled on the ground were hideous and terrifying, and the thick aura of death was almost suffocating.
Wu Gen took a deep breath and strode out of the stone door.
After walking a dozen steps, I looked back and opened my mouth involuntarily. This isn't a stone gate, it's just a tombstone.
The tombstones pierce straight into the sky, and the tall tombs are like continuous mountain peaks, stretching to the sky.
Suddenly, the tombstone cracked open, and figures walked out of it. These people were of varying heights, their armors were broken, and some even had half of their bodies missing.
The only thing that is the same is that all of them have no facial features and are completely bare. When they saw Wu Gen, the faces of these people gradually evolved and they all looked like Wu Gen.
Looking down at himself, he suddenly saw the body of a sturdy man with bulging muscles, shirtless and covered with black hair, holding a big stick.
A giant who was five feet tall and holding a long sword roared loudly, and the sound of war drums suddenly shook the sky.
These people quickly reorganized their formation and rushed forward like a torrent.
Wu Gen scratched his head, watching countless of him pass by, rushing forward to kill first, and he couldn't help but feel a little absurd.
Strange people appeared in front of them. These people all had red eyes and black mist around them, driving monsters to rush over.
These monsters are all kinds of strange, including a two-headed vicious dog, with blood dripping from its mouth, and turning into blue flames when it hits the ground.
There is a monster with the head of a bull and the body of a tiger. It is so powerful that huge boulders look like paper under its horns and can break into pieces at a touch.
Wu Gen's tiger body trembled. How could he defeat such a terrifying monster?
He rolled his eyes, followed the method taught by Lao Mo, raised his arms and rushed to the front of the team. After running for a while, he seemed to be a little exhausted and slowly fell behind others. Gradually, the forward force became the center army, and the center army became the rear army.
While he was hiding in the crowd, pretending to shout kill, Wu Gen suddenly felt something strange around him, and saw countless "Wu Gen" around him turning their heads and glaring at him.
Wu Gen waved his hands at the crowd nonchalantly, "I am a member of my own family, please don't be impulsive."
A tall giant holding a long sword came over and slapped Wu Gen hard on the butt.
With a scream, Wu Gen covered his buttocks and soared into the sky like an arrow. He screamed and passed "himself" one after another, falling alone among the monsters.
Died young.
Looking at the swarming monsters, Wu Gen was about to cry without tears. He waved his big stick and tried his best to resist the attacks of the monsters around him.
After a while, Wu Gen was pierced by a monster's sharp horn, his vision went dark, and his body fell heavily to the ground.
do you died.
Drowsily, Wu Gen opened his eyes and saw that he was still in that gray space. Now that I think about it, this place should be in a tomb somewhere.
He jumped up and looked at himself, but he was intact, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Turning his head to look at the empty space, Wu Gen was a little worried, maybe he would have to enter the battlefield again. Although you can resurrect after death, the pain of being inflicted by the ax is really felt.
After walking forward for a long time, sure enough, rows of stone gates appeared in front of them.
With a long sigh, Wu Gen pushed open the stone door again.
This time, she transformed into a strong woman, wearing red armor, standing in the center of the team.
The woman and the big man holding the sword seemed to be a couple. Seeing the big man with his own face looking at him affectionately, Wu Gen couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart, and he had the urge to kill himself on the spot.
Regardless of the big man's concerned gaze, Wu Gen bravely rushed into the enemy's formation, hacked and killed him, and then took the initiative to die.
When I woke up again, I was in the tomb space again.
This happened so many times, Wu Gen didn't know how many times he died, but he still couldn't escape from this place.
Every time he incarnates, Wu Gen can vaguely feel the other party's strong obsession, either his longing for his hometown or his hatred for strangers. It's like experiencing hundreds of tastes of life and thousands of mortal worlds.
Sometimes Wu Gen would also doubt whether his body was real or fake, or whether he was a ghost that had been trapped here for a long time.
Floating life is a dream, how do you know what a dream is and what a floating life is. If it were an ordinary person, if they had this experience, they would probably get confused and go crazy very quickly.
Although he experienced life and death again and again, Wu Gen found that his survival time was getting longer and longer. Without him, every time I incarnate into a person, I will naturally find that I know some of the skills of that person. Although I can't remember them all after waking up, I have accumulated some insights.
However, when will this kind of life end? Is it possible that I will always be trapped here, with the lonely soul in the deserted grave?
In the tomb, Wu Gen stared blankly at the sky, his expression dull and exhausted.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, and the gray sky cracked like an eggshell.
A huge eye appeared in the sky, shooting out golden light and scanning in all directions.
"What strange eyes, God opened them." Wu Gen murmured, closed his eyes and passed out.
When he opened his eyes again, an old man in ragged clothes and a wretched face was squatting in front of him.
Wu Gen hadn't fully woken up yet. He was used to seeing other people with his own face. When he suddenly saw this strange old man, he couldn't help but blurt out: "What an ugly face, like a monkey."
With a "pop" sound, a slap hit Wu Gen's face, "Whoever looks like a monkey, your whole family is a monkey." The old man jumped up and pointed at Wu Gen with his hand.
Only then did Wu Gen wake up and looked around, already in his own hut.
After regaining his composure, he suddenly sat up and grabbed the old man's beard, "Old man, who are you? You dare to hit me. Tell me if you are a spy from Daxia, and follow me to see the village chief."
The old man blinked twice and looked at Wu Gen pitifully, "This good man, the old man's surname is Wu and his name is Mo, is a poor man with no roots and leaves. By chance, I saw you in trouble everywhere, so I took the risk and took action. They rescue each other, but I don’t know why they want to repay kindness with hatred.”
Only then did Wu Gen realize, "It turns out it was my father-in-law who took action. Thank you very much." He said and quickly smoothed the old man's front.
Looking at the expression on the old man's face, Wu Gen immediately said, "But, public is public, private is private. Since the leader of this village is stationed here, everything must be done according to the rules. According to the laws of Zhao State, pass the customs You have to pay a fee to enter the customs, and for the sake of your help, the money will be waived for you, and the grudge between us will be wiped out."
Wu Mo stroked his gray beard and said with a smile: "It's easy to talk, but there is just one more thing I want to ask for. The old man is destined to be made into a bed by the ground. He has nowhere to go. Can I stay here for a few days?"
Thinking of the weird tomb space, Wu Gen also had lingering fears. It would be nice to have someone to accompany him, so he nodded and agreed.
Wu Mo settled down in the small courtyard under Feng Sui. After getting along for a day, Wu Gen discovered what kind of great god he had recruited here due to his temporary weakness.
Wu Mo was lazy and greedy, and he had a surprisingly large appetite. Most of the food he cooked every day went into his stomach.
You know, the food and grass for the beacon fire in Huangzhong Ridge is supplied on a monthly basis. In less than ten days, most of it has been consumed, which makes Wu Gen very upset.
With no other option, Wu Gen had to open a piece of wasteland on the hillside next to the yard, hoping to harvest some food to make up for the shortfall in the future. On weekdays, we have to go hunting in the mountains, so this is enough for two people.
Wu Mo just waited eagerly in the kitchen every day, staring at the stove. As soon as the food was cooked, he turned to the guests and grabbed them, even the rice cookers.
Although Wu Gen was so angry that his hands itched, but when he thought about the fact that Old Man Wu was here these days and never entered that weird space again, he endured it and treated it like spending money to support a door god.
In the early morning, Wu Gen carried two rabbits and walked down the mountain. Fortunately, he had practiced archery skills in Dafeng Village, so he came back empty-handed every day.
When we walked to a ridge, there was a smell of stewed meat in front of us.
Sniffling, Wu Gen pressed his hand on the handle of the knife and tiptoed to the edge of the mountain ridge.
In the valley under Liangxia, Wu Mo used a stone to prop up a large pot. There was a sheep head boiling in the pot. The soup was boiling and the smell of meat came out, making people salivate.
Wu Gen was furious. He had worked hard to catch the yellow sheep. The two ate it for several days, and only one sheep head was left. I originally wanted to save it for a few more days, but I didn't expect that Wu Mo would steal it.
With a loud cry, Wu Gen jumped down from the mountain ridge and grabbed the opponent tightly.
"Well, you Wu Mo, you just eat more on weekdays, but you dare to eat secretly behind my back. It's tolerable, but it's intolerable. You have to give me an explanation today, otherwise I'll punish you by not eating for three days. .”
Wu Mo smiled and said: "It's not that I'm hungry, there's no next time. You see, it's not that I haven't used my chopsticks yet, and I'm just waiting to eat together."
Wu Gen said angrily: "How dare there be a next time? When I was a child, I was the only one who snatched others' share, and no one could take anything from my hand. No, you must leave today." These days, seeing the rice vat After all, he really couldn't afford to feed Wu Mo, a glutton, so he just found an excuse to drive him away today.
Seeing Wu Gen's resolute attitude, Wu Mo rolled his eyes and said, "Thanks to Wu Zhai Master for taking care of me these days, I am very grateful. In this way, I think the strongman's bones are unique, and he is an unparalleled martial arts genius.
Here is a wonderful book of martial arts, which I would like to give to the leader of the village as a reward for the many days of trouble. "As he said this, he took out a thin booklet from his body, with two crooked words on it.
Wu Gen took it, opened it and looked at it carefully. The booklet only has three pages, and each page has a human figure drawn with dots of stars on it, like a starry sky, with a few thick lines running through it.
Not bad, not bad, not many words.
When I was in the village, I learned a few words from the helmsman. I still knew the words related to robbery and redemption, but I didn't dare to praise other words.
"What does it say? Is it powerful?" Wu Gen asked hesitantly.
Wu Mo coughed twice and straightened his body, "This sutra is the result of countless martial arts masters gathering the essence of their ancestors and painstakingly studying it.
This sutra can be used for both boxing and military use. Practicing it on a daily basis can strengthen the body. If the realm is deep, it will not be a problem to open mountains and crack rocks, cut off rivers and intercept rivers. That is to say, for the sake of the village leader, I won’t let ordinary people see it. "
Wu Gen was doubtful, "How could you be willing to give such a precious thing to me?"
"Everything that happens is due to fate. My brother and I met by fate, and received the kindness of rice and porridge. I cannot get repayment. There will be cause and effect in the future. I am used to being a profligate, and I don't want to be bound by this, so I might as well do this. Opportunity is given to you, and this is the cause and effect." Wu Mo Shen said, speaking a lot of difficult words.
Wu Gen was confused after hearing this. After thinking for a long time, he finally understood, "After thinking about it for a long time, this scripture is worth some money. Good boy, you got a fake from somewhere and fooled me. No wonder I said these two days There is a little less paper to deliver the letter. Was this sutra just written?"
"You have eyes that don't recognize gold and jade, don't pull me down, just give it back to me." Seeing that he couldn't be fooled, Wu Mo said with a sharp expression.
Wu Gen held the booklet in his arms, "I'm sorry, I have small hands, so what I got has never been leaked. I reluctantly accepted it. If I find out that it is a fake, I will see how I will deal with you."
The two had a rough fight and ate the sheep's head before returning to the courtyard.
At night, Wu Gen looked through the Yi Jing carefully in his room. He read it for a long time but didn't know why. Frustrated, he fell on the bed and covered his face with the book, "Could it be that it's really a fake? No, this old boy can rescue me from that hellish place. He must have some skills."
These days, Wu Mo and Wu Gen were fighting over food and drink. Following Wu Gen's past temperament, he had already interrupted Huguai and thrown him out.
But Wu Gen suspected that this old boy was pretending to be crazy. If he really hid any ability, he would be asking for trouble, so he could bear it for so many days.
Today, I got this book through deception and coaxing. I originally thought it was the secret book mentioned in the book, and my skills would improve greatly after practicing it. I didn't expect that I would get nothing after reading it for a long time.
While sighing, Wu Gen fell asleep unconsciously.
