Tian Xiaoding returned to Liutai Mountain full of hope. He wanted to do something big and establish his own power. However, when he returned, he found that only a dying Tao Bao was left in the entire village.
I learned from Tao Bao that just two months ago, Taoist Dou Chong, the owner of Wan Chong Valley, came to Liutai Mountain and bloodbathed the village. He used the insects he raised to eat all the people in the village. Only Tao Bao was left alone in order to let him bring a message to Xiao Ding. At the same time, Taoist Douchong also captured Tang Yunzhi alive, and most likely returned to Wan Chong Valley.
Xiao Ding originally wanted to get up and go to the Ten Thousand Insect Valley to rescue Tang Yunzhi. However, when he saw the dying Tao Bao, he couldn't bear to leave him alone in the mountain stronghold and let him fend for himself.
Xiao Ding's move to stay was seen by Tao Bao. Although he was seriously injured, his mind was clear. He naturally knew that Xiao Ding stayed to take care of him.
Therefore, in order to allow Xiao Ding to go to Wanchong Valley to rescue Tang Yunzhi as soon as possible, Tao Bao resolutely chose to bite his tongue and end his own life, so as not to drag Xiao Ding down.
By the time Xiao Ding came to his senses, Tao Bao had already vomited blood and died.
Xiao Ding shook his head helplessly, sighed, and muttered: Why are you doing this?
But on second thought, Xiao Ding felt that Tao Bao's death might be the best ending. If he were alive, he might be more miserable in the future than if he were dead. As for his internal organs that were riddled with holes, it was hard to say whether he would be able to recover or not. He might not be able to survive in the end, and he would still be dead. There is only a difference between dying a few days earlier and dying a few days later.
Therefore, Xiao Ding did not feel much regret about Tao Bao's death. Even if Tao Bao could survive and survive, all his cultivation would be wasted. The organs are incomplete and the meridians and Dantian are severely damaged. It is not easy to practice cultivation.
Xiao Ding went out, found a flat place behind the cottage, and dug a hole.
He had purchased a lot of tools before, and he could just take out a shovel and use it to dig holes.
Thinking that he had specially prepared so many supplies for the cottage before, but now they were of no use, Xiao Ding was in a terrible mood.
After digging the pit, Xiao Ding used the bed board to hold Tao Bao's body, came to the edge of the pit, and put Tao Bao into the pit together with the bed board and bedding.
Now that conditions do not permit it, Xiao Ding cannot get a coffin for Tao Bao, so he can only bury him with the bed he slept on.
Then, Xiao Ding covered Tao Bao with the duck-down quilt again and covered his head and face.
There has been a rule for burying the dead since ancient times, that is, soil cannot be pressed directly on the dead person's face. Even if there is no coffin, it is necessary to cover the person's face with cloth or straw mat, and then bury the earth on it.
Xiao Ding is from the Earth, and he has lived in both ancient and modern times. Although the humans on Tiankun Planet pay more attention to cultivation, their living customs are similar to the ancient customs of the Chinese nation on Earth.
When Xiaoding first came to Tiankun Planet, when he went to Wuji Sect in Chuanyun Town to apply for a job, he heard an old man from Wuji Sect say that the earliest batch of human residents on Tiankun Planet came from hundreds of people. On the earth thousands of years ago.
At that time, Xiao Ding refused to believe this statement. Because he originally came from the modern society on earth, received a new modern education, and knew the history of human civilization on earth, which only lasted a few thousand years. Even including the period of primitive man, it only lasts for a few million years at most. Could it be said that human beings have come to the Tiankun Star Continent since the primitive man period? This is absolutely impossible.
But later, after Xiao Ding activated his Qiankun Pot magic weapon, he deeply realized that the world is so big and full of wonders. He has realized at this time that in worlds of different time and space, the speed of time passage is not always the same. In most cases, one grain of sand and one world. In other words, each world has its own laws of time and space.
Therefore, Xiao Ding can roughly infer that perhaps the millions of years mentioned on Tiankun Planet may only be hundreds or thousands of years on earth.
Therefore, Xiao Ding did not dare not believe what the old man said back then.
In this way, the humans on Tiankun Planet were all originally from the Chinese people on Earth. Therefore, the living customs of the people on Tiankun Planet have basically inherited the living customs of the Chinese people on Earth.
Xiaoding buried Tao Bao according to the custom of the people on earth. They also found a strip of stone and engraved the characters "Tomb of Tao Bao, the leader of the Second Village of Tianyao Village" on it. The name of Tianyao Village was the name he gave to the village.
What is sad is that now the cottage only has one name left. There were more than a hundred people in the village, and overnight, only Xiao Ding, the polished commander, was left. This made Xiao Ding, who had wanted to fight vigorously, feel as if he had punched cotton but was hit hard, which was very uncomfortable.
Things were a bit unexpected, but the facts were before us. No matter what, Xiao Ding had to accept the reality.
After burying Tao Bao, the sky had darkened.
Xiao Ding thought it would be better to stay one night on Liutai Mountain, and it would not be too late to go to Wan Chong Valley tomorrow.
After all, the Ten Thousand Insect Valley is at the southernmost end of the Soul Burying Mountain. From Liutai Mountain, even if it is faster to walk along the edge of the Soul Burying Mountain, it will take at least a month or two to reach it.
Traveling through Soul Burial Mountain at night would be much more dangerous than during the day. Because of the habits of many beasts, they are accustomed to staying up during the day and emerging at night.
So, that night, Xiao Ding simply made some dinner, and then just found an empty house and moved in.
At night on the top of the mountain, the night wind was strong, making the trees on the top of the mountain rustle. The eaves of the houses or the walls of the cottage were also blown by the night wind, making them howl like ghosts, which was creepy.
If you are timid, you really don't dare to spend the night in such an empty cottage. Just thinking about the hundreds of people who died here is enough to scare people half to death.
Fortunately, Xiao Ding has experienced many battles. He has encountered any dangerous situation, but he just slept in an empty house on the top of the mountain. He didn't pay much attention.
Although the empty house on the top of the mountain is very scary at night, the night will eventually usher in the dawn.
After getting up the next morning, after breakfast, he took out the map, looked at the location of Ten Thousand Insect Valley, and mentally calculated the flight route.
Then, Xiao Ding took out his pen and ink and left some writing on the wall of the house facing the cottage door.
After writing the words, he drove the flying cloud shuttle and left Liutai Mountain and flew west.
His plan was to fly west to the western edge of Soul Burial Mountain, then turn south and fly all the way to the Valley of All Insects.
