After the old man's wounds improved, they decided to continue exploring in depth. Li Fei supported the old man and they entered the forest cautiously. The air in the forest was full of mysterious and ancient atmosphere, and the sunlight shone dappledly on them, giving people a strange feeling. ...
"Fei'er, do you know what kind of forest this is?" the old man suddenly asked. Li Fei shook his head. Although he had heard of this forest, he didn't know its origin.
The old man smiled, pointed to a huge ancient tree in front of him and said, "This is a forest of monsters. Each tree has a history of hundreds or even thousands of years. It is said that these ancient trees are all due to the absorption of monsters. It grows so powerfully from its essence.”
After hearing this, Li Fei couldn't help but be full of awe and curiosity about this forest. They continued deep into the forest, and under the guidance of the old man, Li Fei learned to identify various monsters and understand their habits and weaknesses.
However, the old man's condition worsened during the exploration, and his steps became more and more heavy. But he always persisted and did not let Li Fei worry. They found a quiet place in the woods and decided to rest here and wait for the old man's condition to improve.
In this strange and dangerous environment, Li Fei felt pressure, but he also understood that only by becoming stronger can he protect the people around him. He looked at the old man sleeping peacefully, swore silently in his heart, then lay down and fell asleep.
A few days later, the old man's condition improved significantly under Li Fei's careful care. His face was no longer as gray as before, but rather rosy, and his steps were much more steady than before.
Li Fei looked at the old man and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the old man's condition improved, which meant that they could continue their exploration. They cheered up again and continued deep into the Warcraft Forest.
The old man has rich experience. He taught Li Fei how to identify dangerous monsters, how to use the environment to fight against monsters, and how to obtain resources from monsters. Every day, they have to face various dangers, but they all survive successfully.
Under the guidance of the old man, Li Fei's strength has also improved significantly. He has been able to deal with some low-level monsters on his own. His eyes were full of determination, and he knew that he had to become stronger in order to better protect the old man and himself.
Time passed slowly during their exploration, and the old man's condition continued to improve. Although their lives are difficult, they are enjoying it because they know that they are getting closer to their goals.
Li Fei and the old man stopped at the edge of a dense forest. They found a series of deep footprints on the ground, which were obviously left not long ago.
There are also obvious traces of trampling on the surrounding leaves and grass, and the air is still filled with the aroma of burning wood and food, which is an obvious trace of human habitation.
Li Fei and the old man looked at each other, and they both saw the vigilance and nervousness in the other's eyes. In a place like the Warcraft Forest, traces of human habitation mean possible danger. They must be careful and not let their guard down easily.
Looks like we're not the only ones in these woods. The old man took a deep breath, his eyes sparkling.
Yes, this footprint looks very new, it should be not far away. Li Fei held the weapon in his hand tightly, knowing that they might have to face a battle.
We need to be careful and see who is here. The old man said, and he began to quietly approach the direction of the footprints.
Li Fei followed closely, and they walked forward slowly along the footprints. Their hearts beat faster, and they take every step carefully for fear of causing unnecessary commotion.
They walked for about ten minutes and finally saw an open area ahead. Li Fei and the old man hid in the bushes and looked forward quietly.
In that open area, a group of people were talking and laughing around the fire. They don't look like evil people, but just a bunch of ordinary travelers. Their equipment looks ordinary, nothing special about it.
Li Fei and the old man looked at each other and smiled, and they both breathed a sigh of relief. They decided not to disturb the group for the time being, but continued their exploration.
Although they encountered some minor troubles, it did not affect their good mood. They know that their goal is getting closer. They continued walking forward, hoping to find their target as soon as possible.
The bonfire danced in the night, making a crackling sound, illuminating everything around it. Li Fei sat by the fire and watched the color of the flames change from red to yellow to blue. His eyes were not on the flames, but on the old man opposite.
He looked at the old man's old and steady face, and the wisdom and vicissitudes in his eyes made him feel in awe. Li Fei took a deep breath and decided to ask the questions in his heart.
"Master, why did you come to this village?" Li Fei asked.
The old man raised his head, looked at Li Fei, and then looked at the bonfire. His eyes were as deep as the sea.
He sighed, and then began to tell: "When I was young, I was a practitioner. I have been looking for a path to practice, but I always encountered bottlenecks and found it difficult to improve. I tried various methods, but I could not break through. So, I began to be pessimistic and disappointed, and I felt lonely in my life. I had no other place to go, and no place I wanted to go, so I came to this village. Although this village is remote, the people are sincere and live a happy life. It’s peaceful, too. I find a little bit of peace here.”
After Li Fei heard what the old man said, he asked again: "Then why do you want to help me?"
The old man looked at Li Fei's expectant eyes, smiled slightly, and then said: "Because I see the possibility of practice in you. I see your eyes full of curiosity about the unknown, and I feel that you have the ability to change the world." Maybe. Moreover, your innocent heart makes me feel that you are a person worth helping. I don’t want to let my life be lonely. I hope to be able to help you and make a difference in your life.”
After Li Fei listened to the old man's words, his heart was filled with gratitude. He knew that this was a major responsibility and a rare opportunity. He took a deep look at the old man, and then said firmly: "Master, I will do my best not to let you down."
The old man nodded and smiled with satisfaction: "I believe in you, Li Fei. You have a pure heart, which is the most important thing. Although the road of practice is difficult, as long as you persist, you will always gain something."
The two chatted for a long time next to the campfire. The old man told Li Fei about his cultivation experience when he was young. Li Fei listened with great interest. He knew that these were valuable experiences for his future cultivation. During the chat, Li Fei understood more about the meaning of practice and strengthened his determination.
As darkness deepened, the bonfire burned to the end, leaving only a pile of extinguished coals. Li Fei and the old man felt tired, so they decided to camp on the spot and prepare to rest. The old man found a dry place, laid out a straw mat, and lay down. Li Fei also found a place next to him and lay down.
In the silence of the night, there are only the sounds of insects and wind. Li Fei looked at the twinkling stars in the sky, filled with emotion. He knew that his journey of spiritual practice had just begun, and there was still a long way to go. However, he was not afraid because he knew that the old man was with him.
Under the starry sky, Li Fei and the old man gradually fell asleep, with contented and peaceful smiles on their faces. Tomorrow, a new day and a new practice will begin.
