"Why should I run?"
Yang Kai seemed to not understand the meaning of these words.
"You are a demon, are you not afraid that our family will kill you?"
"Will the father-in-law meet?"
Yang Kai asked Chen Luo.
Chen Luo laughed and finally took a step forward.
And Yang Kai still followed Chen Luo.
This answer actually appeared from the beginning, so asking this question now seems a bit boring.
Chen Luo is already in the Dongxuan realm.
After entering Dongxuan, there are many things in the world that cannot remain hypocritical in front of him. A person from the demon clan can see clearly the first time they meet.
There was also the thought of subduing it and turning it into something to restrain spirits and dispatch generals.
after all……
Fellow Daoist Kun and Fellow Daoist Jiuwei seemed a little lonely.
With one more, some games can be played.
But seeing that there was not much sin in his heart, he gave up after thinking about it.
Naturally, killing him was deemed unnecessary.
"where are we going?"
"Shuzhou!"
"That's a bit far."
"It's a little far, but not far!"
Ten days later.
Chen Luo walked into Shuzhou, followed by Yang Kai.
During the ten days, Yang Kai's eyes became more and more respectful when he saw Chen Luo.
They once encountered wild beasts in Kangzhou,
The beast is hundreds of feet tall and wants to destroy the world.
The father-in-law took action.
He said……
"Fellow Taoist, please stay!"
then,
The huge wild beast, which was hundreds of feet tall, was subdued and accepted his orders.
It would be fine if it were an ordinary wild beast demon.
But that’s why!
It is shaped like a red leopard, with five tails and one horn, and the sound it makes is like the sound of knocking stones...
The hundred-foot-long body moved and even the mountain was destroyed.
One breath is like a flame, melting away a lot.
A waste of Mahayana cultivation.
Even among the demons, he is a saint-level existence.
But in front of him, he said "fellow Taoist, please stay", and he really stayed.
He knows he is strong.
But now it seems, it seems, that my estimate of his strength is still far behind.
Entered Shuzhou.
Chen Luo went straight back to his yard.
It was still Xiaoyue who opened the door.
Decades have passed, and Qiu Xiaoyue is still the same, as if time has not left any trace on his face.
See Chen Luo.
Qiu Xiaoyue saluted: "Sir, are you back?"
"came back."
"Has it been a hard journey?"
"not bad."
"That's great!"
Qiu Xiaoyue squinted her eyes, seemingly full of joy because of Chen Luo's return.
Welcoming Chen Luo into the courtyard.
Granny Wu and Old Man Qiu have already received the news.
See Chen Luo.
Old Man Qiu sighed: "Sir, you are truly an immortal. After several decades, you are not getting older, but you are getting younger..."
"It's a pity that he is not an immortal."
Chen Luo smiled.
Ask: "Can our family invite Lao Qiu to have a glass of wine?"
Old Man Qiu was stunned for a moment.
Lower your head...
There was a little silence.
Finally the smile on his face faded.
He turned back to Granny Wu and Xiaoyue and said, "Let's go make some food and wine. The old man and my husband will drink some wine tonight..."
"good!"
Granny Wu and Qiu Xiaoyue nodded.
Fellow Taoist Bailong appeared, thought for a moment... and left the yard.
Yang Kai didn't come in.
Chen Luo asked him to find a restaurant to stay in Shuzhou...
He should not be qualified to know tonight's romantic events,
Fellow Taoist Bailong Chen Luo did not want to hide his thoughts. After all, as far as he was concerned, there were no secrets from her.
It's just that she doesn't like to embarrass herself, so she becomes a little more sensible.
There are quite a lot of dishes to go with the wine.
There are fish, meat and vegetables.
There are also Chen Luo’s favorite peanuts and beef.
There are even melon seeds.
This is what Xiaoyue prepared.
When Chen Luo lived here decades ago, she often cracked melon seeds. She asked herself why she liked to crack melon seeds.
Chen Luo answered this way: "It looks like a melon seed, but it is not just a melon seed, but more like life... Every bite, every one, has a different feeling... If you add some wine, the taste will be more A bit heavier.”
later.
When drinking, Qiu Xiaoyue will arrange a plate of melon seeds.
I just never thought that after decades, Xiaoyue would still remember this.
So, thank you for her hard work.
…
In the courtyard.
The lonely shadow is mottled.
The sun is not very dazzling.
The chirping of cicadas came from the treetops, which added a little bit of fun.
Old man Qiu sat in front of Chen Luo.
Feet crossed on the chair.
As for the shoes...he never wore those.
It seems that since I met him, he has always been barefoot...
No matter it's cold winter or hot sun.
Whether it’s the Spring Equinox or the Autumn Harvest.
It's always been like this.
"Mr. seems to have done a lot in these years?"
After three rounds of drinking.
So, I talked a little more.
Lao Qiu seemed to have drunk too much, and his eyes were so drunk.
"It's a bit much..."
Chen Luo sighed a little.
Went to the Northern Territory and killed people.
Send the old friend away.
I have seen many friends die.
They also saw that the path they had worked so hard for all their lives fell in front of them, and finally turned into bubbles.
certainly……
I also saw a lot of things that I shouldn't have seen, and I got into some trouble that wasn't considered troublesome.
Thinking about it this way, I have indeed done a lot.
but……
"You've experienced more, right?"
Chen Luo said this: "Although our family would rather be like Lao Qiu, an ordinary person, seeing the storm come late, seeing the night rain in Nabashan rising into the autumn pond... but... it seems that some people don't I don’t like how quiet our house is.”
"There are always some people in this world who are so annoying, and there's nothing we can do about it."
Lao Qiu said this.
Chen Luo nodded: "How can a person live in this world and everything goes smoothly... I'm used to it, but... our family doesn't understand it."
"What don't you understand?"
"You want to kill our family just because of the way to practice qi?"
"Yes and no."
"What else is that?"
"Sir, why are some people willing to stay in the immortal world even though they have already become immortals? You said... everyone wants to become immortals, but why are those who have become immortals unwilling to stay in the immortal world?"
"Suppress the wild beasts?"
"The desolate beast? It's a... but it's actually just an excuse... When the desolate beast is suppressed, all this should be over. Where will there be any remaining immortals?"
"How many people were left behind... back then?"
"Ten statues!"
"How much is left?"
"Eight statues..."
Lao Qiu said: "Of course, sir, don't worry, there are only three people who want to stop you..."
"Thank you."
"Sir, you are joking. How can I thank you?"
"At least, there are only three, not five."
Lao Qiu was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed: "If you say this, sir, I can bear this gift with peace of mind!"
he said.
The words returned to the original topic: "Let's go back to the old question. Sir, do you know why they stay here?"
"The path to immortality is cut off..."
"This is one, but not the root... In the past, the path to immortality was cut off, and it was the work of the ten immortals... Therefore, there is no immortality in the world."
"They're scared!"
Chen Luo squinted his eyes and said what he had been thinking about.
This time.
Lao Qiu was silent again.
His eyes were a little distracted, as if he was reminiscing.
Afraid...
If you say this, who would dare to believe it?
But this is the biggest fundamental...
"Everyone in the world wants to become an immortal. It seems that after becoming an immortal, they can become a master. But who would have thought that the end you pursue in your life is actually another more cruel starting point?
Immortal supreme?
It’s hard to say, but are they actually immortals like ants? "
This time, it was Chen Luo's turn to be silent.
Immortals are like ants?
It seems...there seems to be nothing surprising.
Mortals have mortal institutions.
Immortals also have their own world.
Some people are born in Rome, while others are born with no clothes on.
then.
This is the way to seek success in life, but when I look up, I find that it is something that others have since they were born.
then.
From ants to immortals, from immortals to ants, where can there be any problems?
"So, the immortals are afraid and use the excuse of suppressing wild beasts in the human world, and then destroy the path of immortality and cut off the path of cultivating immortality in the human world?"
"yes……"
"Cut off other people's paths because of fear?"
"yes!"
"Because of fear, they destroyed the way of refining Qi, because they found that only by practicing Qi can they rebuild the path to immortality?"
"..."
Lao Qiu was silent, as if he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"Later, why did the Ten Immortals become the Eight Immortals? Because of guilt?"
"Yes...this is one of the reasons,"
"After Immortal Jingyun destroyed the Immortal Road, he felt ashamed of the human world, so he wanted to organize the Nine Immortals to rebuild the Immortal Road and restore the immortal relationship in the world. He felt that immortals had no right to decide the fate of the world! However, Immortal Shuang But Hua didn't want to. He felt that there should be no immortals in the world, and that the world should not be plunged into endless despair.
As a result, this idea finally broke out into conflict... Two immortals fell... The land of Zhongzhou fell into the abyss for the sake of the ice world.
But because of the fall of the two immortals, there are two more races in this world... As for whether this is good or bad, it is hard to say! "
"and after?"
"Then the Eight Immortals retreated and became the only people left in this world..."
"Unrestricted?"
"The restrictions are very great... Because the path to immortality has been cut off, the immortal spirit energy in the immortal body has continued to decline all year round, and this realm will eventually be unable to be maintained. There is a reincarnation every three thousand years. In this reincarnation, it is not only this era, but also the group of remaining immortals. !”
With Lao Qiu's explanation, some unknown things finally became clear.
Three thousand years is the reincarnation of this world.
But it is also a decline in the immortal realm.
A reincarnation, a fall to a lower level...
Now counting the time, there are four eras before and after: Shangqiong, ancient times, ancient times, ancient times... In this realm of immortals, only the cave realm is left...
but……
Even in the Dongxu realm, it is not something that ordinary Dongxu can look down upon.
Fairy spirit...
Qi
Incense...
The relationship between the three is stronger than the other.
Even Chen Luo's Qi is probably incomparable.
Now that I think about it, this Immortal's Cave is probably the place where the human world will go through tribulations, and even the realm of Shattered Void.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that they are still very strong.
"But it's hard to say. Every immortal has his own destiny, which is special and difficult to know. Just like Jingyun and Shuanghua in the past, they are the two most powerful among the ten immortals. If it is not a fatal decision, Who can see that dazzling decisive battle between heaven and earth?”
Chen Luo has seen that scene...
Whose memory he saw it from has been forgotten, but that battle is something that Chen Luo will never forget for the rest of his life.
Those two immortals...
When he raised his hand, the mountains and rivers were shattered, and the void disappeared.
Especially the final battle...
Chen Luo often recalled it over the years, hoping to gain something from it... Later, he gained some insights, but not much...
Now think about it.
If I have time, I should continue to see and gain insights.
Without him...
It would be good if one could comprehend the magical powers of those two immortals.
As for lifespan...
"Immortals cannot live forever, and at best they only have a lifespan of ten thousand years... But there are always ways to extend their lifespan... This world is still full of opportunities!"
Lao Qiu said this.
"What about her?"
Chen Luo asked.
"Fellow Taoist Bailong?"
"yes……"
"Why do you ask that?"
Lao Qiu was a little confused... why the question was transferred to Bai Long again.
"After she went into seclusion in Shuzhou, when we met again, it was a little different."
"What's the difference?"
"breath……"
"As expected, I still can't hide it from you sir."
Lao Qiu smiled and said: "That child has his own different attainments, but he is also destined to us."
He said some, and Chen Luo also listened to some.
The two of them drank from the sun at noon until late at night, and from late at night until the dawn...
Chen Luo asked a lot of questions.
Lao Qiu also told many stories he knew.
And the Eight Immortals camp is also divided...
Some people think that the human world should be given a chance, so whether it is a path to immortality or a way to practice qi, it should always appear.
Some people also think that ignorance is good. If you cut off the road and stop thinking, you will not despair.
Of course, there are also people who are wandering around, seemingly not knowing what to choose.
And the appearance of Chen Luo...
The emergence of Qi training method became the straw in this weight.
fall……
is gradually changing the balance of the scale.
Chen Luo smiled...
Take a sip of wine.
"So... this chess game is played because of our family, and our family is a pawn in this chess game?"
"yes……"
"What about you? Are you a chess player or something?"
"The old man is just a bystander..."
"Perhaps you can pass a message to our family?"
"What do you want to convey, sir..."
Chen Luo put down the cup in his hand, stood up, turned around, and left...
He left behind that light sentence: "Our family has never been chess pieces. On the contrary, our family is good at chess, and we also want to be chess players..."
Lao Qiu was stunned.
Looking at Chen Luo's leaving figure.
Finally sigh.
"Chess player, how can such a simple thing happen?"
There is a sound.
It's Granny Wu...
How can I hide the conversation from her all day and night?
"It's not easy...but he is also ready to do it."
"The chess game has been set, how can he act as a chess player and jump out of the chess board?"
"It's very simple."
Lao Qiu said.
There was a glimmer in his eyes: "If you kill the player playing chess and sit on it yourself, won't you become the chess player?"
Granny Wu:......
…
Shuzhou.
Chen Luo walked out of the city gate.
look up.
In the morning clouds, a cold light broke through the void.
Seemingly emerging from the infinite.
It's like a long time has passed.
Coming towards Chen Luo.
Chen Luo stretched out his hand and grabbed the object that came through the air.
That's a knife.
The knife is three feet long.
Totally dark...
In the sunshine, the birds were as happy as a young man returning home from home. He was indescribably excited.
"This is?"
Fellow Taoist Bailong was stunned...
How could there be a knife coming from the void?
"What kind of knife is this?"
Yang Kai asked...
It seems very mysterious...
