With comparison, we can understand the difference. Cao An has adapted to the previous state so long that he cannot notice the strangeness of his body. After being nourished by the blood river, all the hidden wounds on his body are healed, and an unprecedented feeling of peace and comfort fills his heart. Even the movement of Qi all over the body has become clearer and faster.
This night, in the ruins of the old villages, new hope was born. The day when the blood river reappeared was destined to be a day of carnival in Gulanzhou.
But these have nothing to do with Cao An.
In the early morning, he held hands with Li Dou'er, who had stabilized his emotions, and walked on the Blood River. His true energy circulated, and he stepped on the river with his toes. Along the path he walked, a line of ice stretched across both sides of the Blood River. The road continues to the other side, and the landforms originally seen have basically been destroyed.
But the powerful vitality of the Blood River also played a role. In just one night, new grass sprouts grew in the dark red soil. Although they were still very small, they looked green at first glance. A piece of land can complete its own natural environment and cycle in just a few days.
Perhaps it was like this a long time ago, but it was only later that the blood river dried up that her original appearance changed.
"Your village chief asked you to follow me, which is actually not a very good arrangement."
Li Dou'er raised his head, his eyes suddenly filled with fear, a fear of being abandoned. For Li Dou'er who had just lost everything, Cao An was his only support now. He was just a kid, not stupid. , he heard the meaning of Cao An's words and did not dare to imagine his own life.
But he didn't dare to say anything, for fear that this action would make Cao An bored with him.
Cao An rubbed his head, "Don't think too much. What the elder brother means is that now the blood river has reappeared and the foundation of the people of Gulanzhou has returned. In fact, for you, the best opportunity is now. You The practice of cultivation requires a perfect physical body. Such practice, even if the energy and blood is not robbed, will cause great harm to the body."
"If an accident causes irreversible damage, then there will be no hope on the road to martial arts. Relying on blood river cultivation can get twice the result with half the effort, and it is impossible for me to stay in Gulan State."
Sighing, Cao An took Li Douer's hand and said, "Let's go, we have to go to Gulan City."
The fear in Li Douer's eyes disappeared, "Brother, what are we going to do in Gulan City? Is it big there? Are there a lot of people? There are also a lot of high-rise buildings? Will there be a lot of benefits in that?" Selling a lot of weird toys? Grandpas told me before that there are storytellers in those cities..."
Li Duo'er, who had no worries anymore, kept chattering beside Cao An. This might be the first time he walked out of the village, out of the mountains, or it might be the first time he walked into a big city. He was full of longing and yearning, filling his heart. In his heart, sadness and fear were temporarily squeezed out at this moment.
Before leaving, Cao An threw out the yellow gourd behind him and filled it with a gourd full of blood river water. He only hoped that this water would not only be useful in the blood river. It would be better than nothing. Once he left Gulanzhou, he would not know. When will I come back? Li Dou'er can't learn anything all the time.
No, to be precise, he had already begun to learn it, since the first day he fell asleep on the stone throne.
The biggest restriction that Blood River has on the people of Gulanzhou is the suppression of Qi, blood and roots. Now that this suppression is gone, theoretically speaking, if there is no Blood River to help treat injuries in a short period of time, it should not have much impact.
He believed that the considerations of a village should be much more thoughtful than what he alone thought.
Not long after the sun rose, Cao An saw another scene. He saw that this road that was rarely used by people was now full of people. There was an endless flow of people flowing along this path. They were moving, not to mention impenetrable, but in small groups, all over the road that Cao An could see.
Feeling a little surprised, he stopped one of the groups. They looked like a family of four. The older man, who must be the head of the family, was pulling a trailer in front, and his two sons were pushing behind him. The car was filled with old furniture, food, and tools.
The old woman was also carrying a heavy bamboo basket on her back, which bent her entire back.
"Old man, where are you going?"
"Go to the river!"
"What big river?" As soon as he finished speaking, Cao An remembered. They should be talking about the Blood River, a long river that only appeared last night.
"Are you a foreigner? Hey, you came out from inside. Didn't you see such a big battle last night? Wasn't there a big river alive in it? That's the root of us Gulanzhou people. Many people They all moved here with their families and chose a place to live near the river, so that they can find a way out for their children and grandchildren in the future."
"Don't stop us. It's going to be slow for a while, and all the good places have been picked out." The old man waved his hand impatiently. It was obvious that Cao An's actions had affected their plan.
Cao An got out of the way.
"Let's keep walking."
At the moment, these are just residents scattered outside the big towns. You can tell by looking at their costumes. There are no rich clothes or retinues. They are all small teams formed spontaneously, or they bring their families with them. The towns have not yet begun to take action, and those with absolute power and power should still be discussing the division of interests at the table.
This means that no matter how hard they try or how early they get up, the current group of people cannot occupy a real advantageous position. Once the interests of those people are touched, their fate is actually very obvious.
It is impossible for a state and a city to be completely scattered on both sides of a large river. This is obviously impossible.
At this moment, in Cao An's perception, a powerful breath came from a distance at an extremely fast speed. When Cao An sensed him for the first time, he was still ten miles away, and it took only a few breaths. He appeared in Cao An's sight.
He is also wearing a black robe, but this time, although he is wearing a black hood, you can see his face. It is a face of about forty years old. He is not familiar with his face, but Cao An is familiar with his face. breath.
"Yan Guinan, you have broken your promise."
"Yes, that's why I came here. There is no way. The matter is beyond my imagination. I am just one of the believers of the sect. There are also several high-level officials such as the left and right envoys, even one person from the Presbytery. It is enough to determine my life or death, not to mention that in such a special period, I thought they would agree to it in order to avoid causing more trouble."
Cao An waved his hand and interrupted him. Just as Shi Qian said, it was the same everywhere. He almost witnessed this epic moment, and the result was the same wherever he witnessed it.
"You're not just talking to me about this, are you?"
"Not entirely, I'm here with other tasks." As he said that, his eyes fell on Li Dou'er next to Cao An.
Cao An frowned, "Are you here for Li Dou'er?"
"Exactly!"
