Great Qin Yunzhou.
Dawn breaks, and the sun dispels the morning chill.
The weather is not very hot in June,
Everything was just right.
Xue Jingcheng walked out of the yard, and as usual, his woman started nagging again.
"You are just a small prison guard. If there is something that has nothing to do with you, or if you can avoid participating in it, then you should participate less."
"The world is no longer peaceful."
"The war with Dazhou has been going on for so many years, and I don't know when it will end."
"In this battle, all kinds of monsters and ghosts will come out."
"I heard that the west side of the city is also haunted these days, and there are experts to slay the demons, but what happened in the end? I heard that the experts were scared away."
"Didn't I hear that a murderer was caught in the government office some time ago?"
"I heard it was quite cruel, killing more than thirty members of the Wu family..."
"When you go on a business trip, don't have any contact with such a vicious person."
"We don't ask for anything, just for peace."
Xue Jingcheng explained: "He may not have done that thing. I have seen that man. He is over a hundred years old...how could he do this?"
one month ago,
A murder case occurred in Yuncheng.
About thirty members of the Wu family were all killed.
When the police arrived, they saw an old man standing in the Wu family courtyard.
His sword is blood.
His clothes were blood.
Even his eyes were full of blood.
Strange to say.
The arrest process was extremely simple, with no struggle or riot.
The policeman went up.
He also put down the sword in his hand.
Even when he was sent to death row, he didn't explain or say anything...
Just let them judge.
Finally he was put on death row.
As for his name, no one knows it yet. Anyway, the old man hasn't said a word since he was caught.
As for why even the women in his own family knew about it, it was really a big deal.
There are thirty members of the Wu family.
The whole family is in mourning.
Even if you want to hide this, you can't hide it.
Nowadays, everyone in Yuncheng knows it.
"How could it be impossible for a hundred-year-old to do these things? Haven't you heard of the old man of the Zeng family? He is over a hundred years old, and I heard he still keeps concubines..."
"This is not the same thing,"
"Why isn't it the same thing?"
"Killing someone is much harder than giving birth to a child."
"Is this what I'm talking about?"
"Isn't it?"
The woman was so angry that she hit Xue Jingcheng hard on the chest: "I'm telling you, don't look at people based on their age!"
Xue Jingcheng laughed.
"understand……"
He naturally knows that his woman cares about him.
"Okay, it's getting late. I have to go to work early. Otherwise, I'll be charged for it if I'm late."
"go Go."
The woman pushed the man out of the courtyard.
Shaked his head.
My men sometimes trust others too much.
She didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
hope……
Hope this is a good thing.
After all, in this life, he has never offended anyone or done anything bad.
…
When Xue Jingcheng arrived, he changed into clothes and brought a knife.
as usual.
Toured around the cells.
He saw the old man again.
He just sat there...
Lean against the underside of the window.
Occasionally, the wind blows, and leaves float in through the window.
At this time, a little light would appear in the old man's dull and dull eyes.
Just gradually.
The light disappeared again.
Xue Jingcheng looked at it. Normally, it should be the same as usual. The old man should not say a word.
But suddenly.
He spoke.
His voice was a little hoarse and weak, as if he might not be able to breathe again at any time.
"I'm going to die~"
Xue Jingcheng was stunned for a moment.
No reaction...
He looked at the old man.
He was right.
More than a hundred years old...
Being imprisoned on death row, he no longer even had the desire to behead.
Based on his current physical condition, it is estimated that he should leave in a few days.
"I didn't kill anyone from the Wang family~"
Another sentence.
Xue Jingcheng finally stopped.
"Since you didn't kill them, why didn't you say it in the Yamen? Now, the matter has been settled. Even if you say these words, it will be useless."
The old man said nothing.
Just silence.
Xu Jiu asked: "Want to hear a story? Listen to my story... Listen to it, a story about a man who has been searching for an immortal for hundreds of years, but in the end he couldn't find it..."
Xue Jingcheng looked around,
It's still early.
Then listen to it?
So, he stood there and listened quietly to the old man's story.
"I was originally a child from a small Poshan Village in Yunzhou, Da Zhou. When I was ten years old, I never thought about what my life would be like. My father had arranged my future path for me very early.
Like him...farming, digging canals, finding an ordinary woman, giving birth to a son, and living out his life. "
"It seems that you have not followed your father's arrangements in your life."
A scar-faced man next door said with a smile.
He was listening too.
It wasn't just him... most of the people in prison were listening.
The story of a ferocious and cruel old man who wiped out the entire Wu family is fascinating no matter how you read it.
Of course I don’t want to miss it.
"This is... maybe, my father was extremely disappointed in me before he died."
"Before your father died, you didn't observe mourning at the bedside?"
"Not only my father, my mother, but also my sister, my sister...I was not there when they left."
After hearing this, everyone's expressions changed a little.
"You are really unfilial."
The old man said nothing.
Silent.
He couldn't say anything.
Because they are right.
I am indeed unfilial...
"Stop talking."
Xue Jingcheng spoke to the prisoners, and finally said to the old man: "You continue to talk."
then.
The old man continued talking.
"I was ten years old that year, and I still remember what happened and what I did on that day.
Early that morning, my neighbor Fan Zhong came to look for me, took a dustpan and went to the river to catch fish.
Everyone must have tried catching fish with a dustpan, right?
In the countryside of the village, the banks of the river are always covered with dense aquatic plants.
Those fish especially like to hide in these aquatic plants.
If this is the case, take the dustpan, place it under the water plants, kick it a few times, and then quickly lift the dustpan up.
At this time, the dustpan will be full of fish, some big and some small, and the harvest is always full."
Everyone listened with some smiles on their faces.
Full of childhood memories.
It's just that as I grow older, I either embark on a green forest career or become a chivalrous person.
Or running for life.
These things were no longer done.
Sometimes I actually want to go, but I just think about being a parent and being older... so I can't let go of my figure.
Therefore, these things have become childhood memories.
"I remember that we caught a lot of fish that day, and one of them was extraordinarily big, at least nearly ten pounds... When this fish appeared, Fan Zhong and I were so happy.
At that time, the villages were poor and most of them had nothing to eat, so eating grilled fish every time was the happiest thing.
It's just that when Fan Zhong and I were grilling fish, I happened to raise my head... This moment, my life completely changed! "
"What do you see?"
Someone asked!
"people……"
The old man said: "There is someone walking in the void with a sword, crossing the void, and heading into the distance... That's an immortal!"
The old man's eyes became brighter and brighter.
He seemed to be back to the way he was before.
Even in the eyes...
It is also full of yearning and reminiscence.
…
The old man spoke very slowly.
But it’s also very clear…
No one was in a hurry.
Just listen quietly.
There were only a few people at first, but gradually there were more people.
Xue Jingcheng was startled when he turned back, but most of the guards had also arrived.
Most of them were attracted by the old man’s stories.
Immortal.
Looking for immortals.
Encounter with immortals.
The combination of these factors will naturally attract extra attention.
When they heard the old man say that he could not chase the immortal for thirty miles, everyone could not help but feel a little pity in their hearts.
I also heard that the old man left home at the age of ten in search of immortals and traveled to famous mountains to worship immortals for decades. I was full of admiration.
But when I heard that I had found an immortal, but I could only say that I had no chance to be an immortal, my heart was full of sighs.
People of the world...
Like an old man.
Like them.
In fact, don’t they all dream of becoming immortals?
But they couldn't find it after all.
And even if it is found, it is just like the old man who said that he has no chance to be immortal.
later.
I heard the old man say that all his relatives had left when he returned home, and his heart became even more desolate.
Children meet each other but don't know each other,
Laughing and asking where the guest came from.
How sad is this?
He is still talking...
Talking...
It also talks about the journey of seeking immortality again at the age of one.
He also talked about how he met the immortal ten years ago again, and once again said that he had no chance to meet the immortal...
At this moment, everyone no longer knew how they felt.
A whole hundred years!
Searched for hundreds of years.
Chasing for hundreds of years.
In the end it came to nothing.
"Why!"
Xue Jingcheng sighed.
A century-old dream is ultimately just a bubble.
wake up.
In the end there was still nothing.
How sad.
How deplorable?
"If I give you a hundred years...will you continue to seek immortality?"
A voice came.
Gently.
Lightly.
When the old man in the cell heard this voice, he trembled slightly and slowly raised his head.
Those old eyes were filled with disbelief at this moment.
as if……
I felt dozens of years younger in an instant.
Everyone was a little surprised and didn't understand how the old man's state before and after could be so obvious.
And the look in his eyes...
How could there be excitement?
They followed the old man's gaze.
I saw a man appearing in the corner.
Men in Tsing Yi.
Full of nature.
Xue Jingcheng was slightly stunned.
The guards in the sky prison were also slightly stunned.
Then his expression changed drastically.
"Who are you?"
"When did you enter the prison?"
"Damn it!"
"This is not a place you can come to!"
This is a heavenly prison...
There are some criminals detained inside.
As a result, someone actually came here and mingled with the guards, listening to the old man telling stories.
This won't surprise them.
They shouted...
Just draw the sword.
But they found that their knives could not be pulled out.
Not only that
They couldn't speak, couldn't even move.
The man ignored them.
Just walked towards the old man.
The cell door opened on its own.
He went inside.
Standing in front of the old man.
The old man struggled.
Want to stand up.
It's just that he is getting old after all...
His lifespan has come to an end, and even if he wants to struggle now, he can't.
"If I gave you another hundred years, would you still want to seek immortality?"
Chen Luo asked again.
This old man is Fan Yan...
In the past, there was the young man who begged for immortality, and the old man who begged for immortality.
After leaving Xiejia Village, Chen Luo once left a trace of his breath on the old man.
This breath doesn't have much effect.
But if he died or was about to die, Chen Luo would be able to detect it.
In the Yunyan Lake, Chen Luo felt the constant passage of his life force, so he came here...
exactly.
He is telling stories.
I also listened to his story.
"One hundred years, two hundred years, or more, I will continue to seek immortality and seek the opportunity of immortality!"
Fan Yan said,
Chen Luo nodded: "You are also an idiot!"
"It's not that I'm crazy, I just don't want to admit defeat!"
Fan Yan said:
"Everyone is an ant in the eyes of immortals. I just don't want or want my destiny to be controlled... Yang Bucheng said that a person's life is destined as soon as he is born, and no one can change it.
But I don’t believe it, and I don’t agree with it. I believe that even ants will one day shake the sky.
Even if talent or opportunity is not enough, as long as you work hard, you can change the sun and the moon into the blue sky. "
Chen Luodao: "There are thousands of ways of practice in the world. I have a disciple who likes books and reading... Her way is the way of meditation.
There is also a disciple who doesn’t want to walk on the path that the world follows, let alone the world without the ability to protect himself, so he creates his own path, and they are all doing well..."
Fan Yan was silent.
After a long while, he smiled bitterly: "Unfortunately, I have no chance to meet the immortal..."
"The fate between you and me was already decided when you were ten years old."
As soon as these words came out, Xue Jingcheng and others looked at Chen Luo, their faces turned upside down.
Ten years ago?
No connection with immortals?
This is... the immortal the old man talks about?
He actually appeared here.
This...how is this possible!
It turned out that everything the old man said was true...he was not lying.
Fan Xian looked up.
Look at Chen Luo.
His face was full of surprise: "But didn't you say that you and I have no chance?"
"There was no fate in the past, but today we have fate."
Fan Yan froze on the spot.
My eyes had turned red before I knew it.
Search for immortals for hundreds of years.
Now I finally heard that sentence of destiny.
But bow your head.
After looking at himself, he finally sighed.
"I'm already old...I can't survive today."
Chen Luo smiled slightly.
"Stand up and look..."
he said.
"I can't stand up, I don't even have the strength anymore."
"If you don't try, how will you know if you can stand up?"
Chen Luodao: "For a hundred years, you have never given up even though you knew you couldn't do it. Today you are just standing up, but you don't want to try?"
Fan Yan thought that he really should try it.
So, he struggled.
Somewhat difficult,
But he still stood up...
It was a little difficult at first, but gradually, he found that his strength seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.
He stood up.
Raise your hands.
It was originally full of wrinkles, but now it is constantly regaining its youthfulness.
Not just hands.
skin.
Spirit.
All are young.
The moment he stood up completely, he was still an old man about a hundred years old at first, but now he has turned into a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.
The young man has a resolute face,
Full of heroic spirit.
"Look, aren't you standing up?"
Chen Luo smiled.
Fan Yan was stunned and suddenly knelt down: "I beg the immortal to accept me as your disciple!"
He kowtows,
He knocked his head hard on the ground.
"good!"
Chen Luo nodded this time.
Under everyone's gaze, the two slowly walked out of the prison.
No one stopped, no one dared to stop,
After they left, Xue Jingcheng and others finally regained their freedom, breathing heavily.
They looked into the cell,
The old man was still sitting under the window.
Fallen leaves drifted in from the window and fell on the old man.
he died.
I don’t know how long I have been dead.
Not long after, a story emerged in Yuncheng, the story of an old man who had been searching for immortals for hundreds of years and finally entered the immortal gate.
…
Chen Luo was destined to have three disciples.
people.
Demon.
ghost.
This is His way: the way of the Master of all things.
After his third trip in the past, his way had already appeared, but over the years, Chen Luo has never been able to find a suitable candidate.
Going round and round.
Fortunately, today, this path has finally been improved.
[You travel in the rivers and lakes, experience in the world, understand the way of the world, and walk the path of the teacher of all things!
people!
Demon!
ghost!
Although there are few, they can be regarded as the fundamental path of the master of all things.
You have the ultimate understanding of immortality.
Immortal experience +555!
PS: There is a road in the human world, and there is also a road to immortality... Thousands of books, thousands of miles of road, thousands of scenery, save the world, save the common people, be a teacher for all people, and be the teacher of all things!
Congratulations, your road to the world of mortals has reached another milestone, but it is not the end yet... Good luck! 】
Chen Luo smiled slightly when he heard the system prompts.
It took more than a hundred years to walk the same path.
This is not easy anymore.
Old friend loess.
He could only accept three disciples.
If Li Chungang knew about it, he would probably laugh at himself for a long time.
pity……
he died.
There is no need to worry about being laughed at.
But every time he thinks of that guy, Chen Luo still sighs... In the years since that guy died, it seems that he hasn't done anything bad in his name?
for example……
Go to Goulan to listen to music?
Just thinking about Chen Luo shook his head.
After all, he is his friend, and he is also an old friend who has been dead for many years.
If he still does something bad in his name.
That's really bad.
After leaving Yunzhou, Chen Luo was not in a hurry to go back to Yushan Academy, but chose to travel around Daqin.
same.
He also taught Fan Yan how to cultivate immortality.
As his youngest and last disciple, Chen Luo must bear a responsibility.
As for what happened to the Wu family in the past.
Chen Luo didn't care.
Don't care either.
However, Fan Yan later said that what happened to the Wu family was done by a female ghost...
I happened to pass by.
He happened to be caught red-handed and was injured, so he was put on death row.
It sounds simple...but there is always some story behind it.
Who is the female ghost?
Why don't you want to explain?
Why was he injured?
Everything in the world always happens for a reason...
But Chen Luo didn't care.
Who doesn’t already have some secrets?
He already has it, let alone Fan Yan?
