Until dusk approached, Wu Genfang reluctantly woke up, rubbed his numb head, and suddenly remembered that Shui Congyue had not arranged a room to rest.
He hurried out of the house, then turned around and was stunned. I just remember that before my consciousness disappeared, I fell on the table in the courtyard. Who sent me back to the house? Lao Mo, it's impossible, Bao Xiang, come on.
He turned around to look for Shui Congyue, but there was no trace of him. While he was doubting, he suddenly felt something in his heart and raised his head to look at Fengsui.
At dusk, a ray of sunset still lingers on the horizon, and the afterglow illuminates the mountain light, which is indescribably enchanting and beautiful. The clear moon is like a hook, but it has hung in the dark blue sky early.
A man in white clothes was sitting sideways on the gray-green beacon brick wall, looking sideways at the wilderness, with one leg resting comfortably on the wall, taking a sip at the sunset.
The green bricks, the thin dusk, the rosy clouds, the lonely man, the solitary fire, and the distant mountains are like the painters who splashed ink on the sky and the earth, and between the dots of ink, they turned out to be such beautiful works.
Wu Gen slowly walked up and sat opposite this talented man.
"Brother Shui comes from a wealthy family, so why do you travel alone across the country?" Wu Gen considered his words and carefully explored the man's details.
"Find a way." Shui Congyue took a sip of wine and replied lightly.
"What way?" Wu Gen was a little confused. A person who can travel across countries and counties, and travel thousands of miles, can't find a way, then this way is not the other way.
"Did you know that in this world, there are mortals and strangers." Shui Congyue asked leisurely.
"I've heard some of it, but I don't know the details." Wu Gen told the truth. Since I have passed through the Path of Rebirth, I naturally know that some people in this world are different from ordinary people.
"Among the strange people, there are all kinds of special talents. There are orcs, who have the blood of monsters and beasts, and can transform into animal shapes. There are warriors, who refine the human body, heaven and earth, and prove the Tao with their strength.
There are Qi practitioners who can breathe out the spiritual energy of the weather and escape from the mundane world. For those who know, the most important thing is to cultivate the soul, break through illusions, and understand the true self. There are also some people who are born with special powers, such as controlling water and fire. There are so many roads, which one should I take? "Shui Congyue turned his head over, his eyes blurred.
Only then did Wu Gen realize that there were so many roads in the world. No wonder Baoxiang could grow four arms. "Can't there be multiple roads running together?"
"Yes, many foreigners practice various arts at the same time, but they just focus on them."
Wu Gen stood up and stood by the female wall watching the sunset. He suddenly turned around and asked, "With so many roads, it is difficult for everyone to walk."
“If that’s the case, then that’s it, no matter which path you take, you need a qualification.
Those who practice qi need to be able to sense qi and receive qi. Celestial beings are rewarded by their ancestors, and orcs are gifted with blood. The threshold for warriors is lower, but reaching the realm of transformation is not that easy.
Have you ever thought that such a person is extraordinary and noble, and his lifespan is much longer than that of ordinary people. He controls resources and has many descendants. In this way, like a snowball, it has become an unshakable force, and no one can shake its position.
Just like the secular nobles, there are connections and handovers, and in-laws come and go. How difficult it is for the common people to break through their shackles.
The reason why I travel all over the country is to find a way for ordinary people to make progress. At the very least, it can be a path for ordinary people to climb mountains. "
After listening to Shui Congyue's words, Wu Gen looked calm on the surface, but his heart was already in turmoil. Yes, it can be said that my journey to the afterlife this time was one step at a time, and I was lucky enough to get the Ding status among them. Going up further, the difficulty can be imagined.
Moreover, middle-class people and noble people are also divided into three, six or nine levels. The upper-class people look down on the middle-class people, and the middle-class people will humiliate the lower-class people. The barriers are tight and the noble and the low are clearly distinguished.
But when it comes to power, people are the most selfish, and no one is willing to share it with others. Therefore, those in high positions are bound to suppress those in low positions everywhere and close the transition channels.
The resources in the world are like a piece of pie. If you give more to others, you will lose one less. As Shui Congyue said, once you control resources, who will be willing to give them away?
The secular world is easier to say. If the water comes from those strangers in the mouth of the moon, the needs of cultivators are greater. Where do these resources come from? It is not from the common people.
Thinking of this, Wu Gen glanced at Shui Congyue and said solemnly: "Then which path is Brother Shui going to take now?"
Shui Congyue stretched out and narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, "I was asked to practice Qi at home, but I just like martial arts.
The art of Qi training was mostly popular in the Zhujuan Kingdom, but martial arts was in decline. I just came to the Zhao Kingdom, which was founded on martial arts, and looked around for martial arts masters to learn from each other. But the longer I walked, the more confused I became. The martial arts in the Zhao Kingdom are also gradually declining. Could it be that martial arts in the world will eventually become lonely. Tell me which way I should go. "
"Haha. The road is in your heart, just follow your heart." Wu Gen sighed with emotion. The so-called road is just a choice.
"Is it in your heart?" Shui Congyue murmured to himself, turning his head to watch the setting sun sink into the horizon. Suddenly a ray of light shot out from below the horizon, like a flashback. The light disappeared, and the originally pale crescent moon turned golden.
Seeing this scene, Shui Congyue's somewhat confused eyes suddenly became clearer, "Wu Gen, let me tell you another secret. A long time ago, Qi training was the mainstream of spiritual practice, and Qi practice was almost synonymous with spiritual practice.
However, for unknown reasons, Qi training suddenly declined and many monks disappeared. No one knows the reason for this, and many practicing families and sects are struggling to find out. However, there is a common theory that is generally recognized by people, and it is related to the dark night and fog.
In recent years, Qi training has become popular again. In our country, Zhu Juan, the largest practice sect is actually the royal family. But I think that Qi training is rising at this time, just like the setting sun just now, and after the brilliance, it is a moonlit night.
Therefore, I have decided in my heart that I will follow martial arts and make a path for the common people in the world. Even if the future is difficult and my body is broken into pieces, that is what I want in my heart. "
Wu Gen turned around and smiled: "Cong Yuesao said these unlucky words. There is no road in the world. Someone has to dig mountains and build roads. If you don't dislike it, why don't we go forward together.
There are mostly ancient martial arts fighting among the ghosts here. When you have time, you might as well go in and give it a try. Although it does some damage to the soul, as long as you don't get trapped in it, it's okay. By the way, what exactly is that fog in the dark night? "
Shui Congyue took a deep breath, pointed into the distance and said: "Look at the vast territory of Zhao State, but it is just an inconspicuous corner among the various continents. Outside the various continents, there are still some places where people It is inaccessible. It is shrouded in black mist all day long, and there are strange people and beasts hidden in it. They have been at odds with the human race for many years.
This black mist clashes with spiritual energy, also known as adverse energy. For Qi practitioners, it is like poison, so the decline of Qi training is most likely related to it. As for where this adverse energy comes from, no one knows. "
Wu Gen blinked and moved closer with a sly look on his face, "Brother Cong Yue knows so much, so he must be from a noble family."
Shui Congyue did not deny it, "The Shui family is indeed a wealthy family in Zhujuan Kingdom."
Wu Gen nodded, "Brother Congyue just said that he didn't want to practice Qi training. I guess he has the qualifications, so you might as well use it to open my eyes." Since returning from the trial, Wu Gen has become interested in these fancy methods. interest.
Frowning, Shui Congyue originally didn't want to reveal his magic, but seeing Wu Gen's expectant eyes, he stretched out his hand, and white mist gradually appeared in his palm. The fog gradually thickened and turned into water droplets.
The water droplets gathered and rolled continuously, and finally a bird made of water appeared on Shui Congyue's palm. Even the feathers on its wings were fully visible, which was lifelike. With a slight lift of his palm, the bird flapped its wings and flew up, flying around the water from the moon for several weeks, and finally shot straight into the sky and disappeared.
"Good means." Wu Gen looked envious, "I can learn such a spell."
"Let me take a closer look at your physique." Shui Congyue stretched out his long index finger and placed it on Wu Gen's forehead. He closed his eyes slightly and sensed carefully. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "No. I originally wanted to It's weird to transfer some spiritual energy into your body, but as soon as it enters your human world, it turns into nothingness and disappears. In this case, you can't even hide your energy, so how can you practice your energy."
Maybe she felt that she was speaking too directly, so Shui Congyue added, "Your blood and vitality are strong, and your soul is extremely strong, so you are a good material for practicing martial arts."
Hearing that he couldn't practice qi, Wu Gen didn't care at all, "I'm just asking. I always feel that the spells are very good-looking. Even if you are not the leader of the village, you can make a living by performing tricks. In this case, I'd better train my body." Bar."
The two talked for a long time, and it was already dark.
Looking at the crescent moon above his head, Wu Gen said: "Brother Shui will stay here for a while. There are still more than ten days until the full moon night. Then you can try to enter the ghost world. Don't worry, when you get inside, thousands of troops will Fighting among thousands of horses is a good place for Brother Water to show off his skills."
Thousands of people with the appearance of Shui Congyue rush to kill each other. It is such a spectacular and weird sight, especially if Ruo Shui Congyue transforms into a bearded man and finds that his body has become so majestic, I don’t know what his expression will be like then. .
Thinking of this, Wu Gen felt itchy in his heart and wished he could enter together. It's a pity that there is only one bell, and it will be troublesome if it can't come out. Next time I meet Wu Mo, I will definitely ask him to come back with thousands of bells.
"I always feel that you are thinking of something bad." Shui Congyue looked suspicious and looked at Wu Gen, who was secretly smiling.
"No, no, I'm happy that my brother is about to increase his strength. Let's go for a walk and go down for a drink. Those two cowards will probably wake up too."
"Really do not have?"
"Don't worry, a person as pure and pure as me can't have so many evil thoughts."
In this way, Shui Congyue was coaxed into living. Wu Gen has taken a big step forward by becoming a genuine team leader.
But the good times did not last long. Within a few days, Baoxiang said goodbye in a hurry, saying that the private salt business could not be delayed for too long.
In fact, Baoxiang had competed with Shui Congyue many times in the past few days, and was defeated time and time again. In the end, he even used the family's unique skill of the Four Arms, but was still pinned to the ground and rubbed. This friction is literally what it means. Who made Baoxiang have a mean mouth and Miss Yue screamed, but Shui Congyue stepped on her feet and beat her up violently.
The shrill screams resounded through the mountains and fields, making Wu Gen and Mo Xin feel heartache. Baoxiang, whose self-esteem was frustrated, was naturally embarrassed to stay any longer and hurried down the mountain with a swollen face.
A few days later, even Mo Xin left. An order suddenly came from the army, ordering him to return to camp as soon as possible. It was said that there was something confidential, but it made people confused.
The night of the full moon finally arrived. Shui Congyue did not enter the house, but sat directly under the locust tree, holding a bell and waiting for the ghosts.
Wu Gen gave Qian a warning and Wan a warning, fearing that the water would fall into the water from the moon, and murderous intentions would arouse, and he would not come out. If he fell into it, he would be short of a general. Now he can see that Shui Congyue is not only cruel to others, but also cruel to himself. He has the kind of undying temperament.
Being driven away impatiently by Shui Congyue, Wu Gen had no choice but to go down the mountain and wait for the ghosts to disperse.
He waited for three days. Watching the fog dissipate over the mountains, Wu Gen ran up the mountain. When I ran to the courtyard, I saw Shui Congyue withered, sitting under the tree with his eyes closed and motionless.
It's over. Wu Gen felt a chill in his heart. Could it be that Shui Congyue didn't listen to the dissuasion and died inside?
Wu Gen stepped forward to support his body, and patted Shui Congyue's face, but the other party showed no response. Just as he was about to increase his strength, Shui Congyue suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were red and murderous, and Wu Gen was so frightened that he took a few steps back.
Fortunately, fortunately, the person is still alive.
Seeing Wu Gen's pleased look, Shui Congyue finally woke up and said coldly: "I want to enter the ghost world again." After saying that, he tilted his head and fainted.
