Watching the big carp go away, Gu was worried and excited.
When countless people around were surprised by this, they all felt disappointed and regretful.
Only Gu Dan seemed to have grasped the life-saving straw, and saw the dawn of hope in the countless fog.
Undisguised joy emerged from him, his whole face was radiant, and his eyes burst out with a brilliant look.
The acquired Qi, which had always been stuck in the last step and could not be condensed, was caught by Gu Dan at this moment.
He's too steady.
It's too stable.
I believe that if I have enough time and rich enough experience, I will eventually be able to achieve success.
Just try enough.
But there are some things that you have to get involved in in order to gain anything.
Watching fire from the other side, you will always be able to know the ever-changing shapes of fire, but you will not be able to perceive the real, scorching temperature.
Only after you have been exposed to flames, or even been burned by flames, can you understand what fire itself is.
He tried countless times to condense the acquired Qi, but he retreated before the last step.
True, if it fails, there will be a horrific explosion.
But that kind of explosion wouldn't kill him.
It's just human nature to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune.
Since it is known that failure will lead to losses, it is natural to run as far as possible.
It is precisely because of this that he also lost the key to making the blood energy truly condense.
So no matter how much he polished and tried, he always missed the last step, blocking it in front of him, and he still couldn't figure out the key.
Until today.
Gu Dan suddenly understood after seeing with his own eyes the huge carp that was regarded as the jackpot struggling to fly over the dragon gate and bursting out of its huge life potential unwilling to be restrained.
If you don't really try your best, you don't deserve a 'miracle'.
The jackpot carp that he once thought was destined to die was like this. How could the acquired talent not be like this?
If you cherish yourself too much, you will get further and further away from your goal.
Although the big carp that flew over the dragon gate were covered with wounds and were even at risk of being hunted, they won the opportunity to reproduce, the next fifteen years, and the future of the group.
If you encounter Longmen Mountain, you are afraid of being injured, worried about difficulties and obstacles, and afraid of hunters hiding behind Longmen Mountain. Therefore, if you have to wait until the sea is flowing and the mountains collapse, then you can pass by on a smooth road. Then I am afraid that the big carp group will have disappeared long ago. Between heaven and earth.
Even if one of them survived alone, it would be of no use.
Not everything, avoiding suffering and clinging to stability is the best choice.
Even if a hundred big carps collide at Longmen Pass and their heads are bloody and their scales are broken, there will still be one hundred and one big carps to push on again. It is precisely because of this energy that can be said to be reckless or foolish. , will appear the so-called "carp leaping over the dragon gate" spectacle.
It is precisely because of this that there are legends about big carp in the world.
This group of creatures, who may not even be considered smart in their own right, taught Gu Dan a lesson.
Perhaps it is precisely because they know little and don't have so many twists and turns that they can only think about moving forward.
And Gu Dan had so many things on his mind that they turned into invisible weights on him unconsciously, which made him worry in every possible way.
Gu Dan's figure flashed.
In the moment when people around him sighed and became noisy, Gu Dan's figure had disappeared.
When he reappeared, he had entered the water and was on the side of the fleeing big carp.
This big 'jackpot' carp is in very bad shape.
Even if it successfully escaped the encirclement and suppression, the injuries on its body cannot be faked at all.
Most of the golden scales on its tail fell off when it hit the rocks again and again, leaving fragmented bright red wounds. At this time, the huge body was wrapped with iron chains, piercing through the flesh and blood.
Every time he swims, the injury becomes more serious.
We have to admit that the price of freedom is heavy.
It may be the first big carp in thousands of years to escape the encirclement and suppression by warriors.
But the injuries on its body were enough to be fatal.
Even if no one hunts the big carp again, it is almost impossible for this big carp, which has exhausted its metal breath, to recover from its injuries. It also has iron chains attached to it, piercing through the flesh and blood. It is not a matter of luck.
Fortunately, Gu Dan is here.
This big carp probably can't tell the difference between the diversity of people themselves.
Suddenly there was a person next to him, and the big carp was also shocked. His tail suddenly slapped the water, and his whole body jumped forward, trying to get rid of the man's entanglement.
However, although the water was its home field, the speed of the man was not inferior to the wind at all. No matter how its tail flapped, the man followed him like a shadow.
Not only that, the man stretched out his hand and grabbed the iron chain wrapped around it, like gangrene attached to the bone.
"Don't be afraid, little one, I'm here to help you."
Even in water, the sound transmission into the secret has no effect.
Gu Dan was in a great mood, and it didn't matter even if the big carp couldn't understand it at all.
Sure enough, in response to his kindness, the fragmented tail suddenly slapped.
Gu Dan's body swayed, and he moved to the side, and then without any delay, he forcefully pulled out the iron lock that was wrapped around the big carp and pierced through the body.
Such severe pain naturally drove the big carp crazy. It flapped its tail crazily without interruption, letting its flesh and blood fall off under the almost violent struggle, and refused to fall into the hands of the thieves.
Fortunately, Gu Dan was very fast and he dismantled the iron lock. However, the large holes that had been punched through the big carp's body still looked shocking.
But these injuries were nothing to Gu Dan.
A flash of emerald green light flashed in the water and fell on the big carp.
Just for a moment.
I saw that the originally dilapidated and severely injured body was recovering at a speed that was unimaginable to ordinary people.
Flesh and blood are healed, and scales are reborn.
In just a few moments, the bloody tail had fully grown.
The rich vitality rippled within the body and turned into an infinite backing, making up for all the damage to the big carp itself.
A drop of green wood liquid, after only a small amount of consumption, has completely restored it to its 'perfect' state, and the remaining vitality is dormant in its body, constantly warming and nourishing the body.
Such an extremely surprising change is enough to make people stunned even if it is placed on a human body.
After sensing the constant itching coming from itself, this big carp stayed in the water and stopped struggling.
Those big eyes, half the size of an ordinary person's head, stared at the iron lock with flesh and blood still left in Gu Dan's hand, and fell into thought.
Its wisdom may be limited, but it does not mean that it is truly ignorant of good and evil.
Even smarter poultry may know how to "observe people's emotions". Naturally, these large carps that can cross the Longmen Mountain Pass are not that stupid.
Those huge eyes looked at Gu Dan, and his golden tail, which had returned to its original state, flapped a little, and then got closer to Gu Dan.
Gu Dan stretched out his hand and patted the big carp's head gently. The touch was slightly cold, but it was not rough as expected, and even a little smooth. He smiled and said: "Since you have earned your life, you must live it." Better. Just take care of yourself."
As soon as the words fell, he no longer lingered and disappeared into the river.
Only the big carp that he had rescued was left. It circled three times where he was, and even jumped out of the water several times. Only after there was no trace of him again did it slowly leave.
When we returned to Longmen Pass, another big carp crossed Longmen.
But the warriors who had missed out on the most expensive and most precious 'jackpot' carp were naturally filled with anger.
On the contrary, it was these later big carps who were unlucky.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
The big carps will fight for their own lives.
The same goes for people.
"Senior, what can you do if you leave this place temporarily?"
Fu Suxin asked curiously.
When Gu Dan disappeared before, with her current strength, let alone a shadow, she could not even see the corners of her clothes clearly.
The speed was fast enough to make the Grandmaster gasp.
If this is not an expert, who would believe it!
I just don’t know how high such an expert can go.
"Nothing."
Gu Dan smiled.
Fu Suxin looked at the smile on Gu Dan's face that could no longer be concealed. It was already exposed and difficult to hide. Obviously, she didn't believe that the other party just ran around casually, but why should such a master act like this? Explain to whom?
When the excitement comes, there will be some action, which is difficult for ordinary people to see the whole picture.
It was Zhuang Sheng who spoke up, saying: "I see Brother Kong's excitement is palpable, I think I will gain something from this."
"Yes."
Gu Dan nodded lightly and said bluntly: "You once said, 'It is a great fortune to gain something and then lose it again.' Today, I lost something and found it again, and finally saw through the fog in my heart. There is a mystery between gain and loss."
All kinds of competition are free, and competition is the true meaning. Not only must you compete with others, but you must also transcend your own cage. "
Speaking of which, he should also thank Zhuang Sheng. If Zhuang Sheng hadn't invited him to revisit his old place and see the wonder of the carp leaping over the dragon gate, he would have missed this blessing that belonged to him today.
Then I don't know how long I will have to waste time in the deep mountains and old forests before I can understand the belief and determination of "moving forward".
After all, after such a long time, the word "steady" was almost engraved in Gu Dan's bones. Without external inspiration, it would be even more difficult to regain this belief all by himself.
It wasn't because he didn't have enough understanding, but because he was blinded by Mount Taishan, so it was naturally difficult for him to detect it.
This is the secret between gain and loss.
"In this way, this trip will be considered worthwhile."
Zhuang Sheng smiled and nodded.
The water splashed all over the sky, and one big carp after another flew across the dragon gate.
It brings a perfect end to this fifteen-year-old event.
Gu is in a very good mood.
Even as the sunset in the sky gradually fades, the scenery here is no longer as mysterious as it was at the beginning, and it is still enjoyable.
After this observation, he discovered something different.
Those big carps that crossed the dragon gate seemed to have undergone some kind of special transformation, transformation in the true sense.
It's just that the magnitude of that transformation is very weak, and it's impossible for ordinary people to detect it.
If his soul hadn't greatly increased, he probably wouldn't have been able to discover it.
As the bodies of the big carps continued to collide with the rocks, and their flesh and blood were blurred, the breath of hardware flowed through their bodies, making their bodies even more solid and powerful.
Even those broken scales were somewhat nourished.
The dangers on the road are not only hardships that they need to overcome, but also give them new opportunities to transform themselves.
After leaping over the dragon's gate, each big carp would let out a long groan. Along with the long groan expressing excitement, the 'aura' on their bodies also faintly changed slightly.
If we had to find an accurate word to describe it, it would probably be equivalent to the 'spirit, spirit' in a person.
People naturally have different spirits and spirits at different times and through different experiences.
This change is not unique to humans, the same goes for big carp!
After crossing Longmenkou, each big carp had some subtle changes. Although the so-called Longmenkou was actually just an ordinary mountain peak, they really experienced new changes.
The legend of the carp leaping over the Dragon Gate is not just empty talk.
Although he couldn't shed his mortal body and turn into a dragon, there was indeed a good change for the big carp who successfully flew across the dragon gate.
By the time it gets dark, the moon is in the middle of the sky.
This once-in-fifteen-year spectacle has ended again.
Many people had already left early when it was getting dark.
Gu Dan and Zhuang Sheng were also preparing to leave, especially Gu Dan. After he prepared to go back, he immediately started refining the acquired Qi.
This time, there should be no possibility of failure!
"senior."
Seeing Gu Dan and Zhuang Sheng about to leave, Fu Suxin called out in a low voice.
"Um?"
Gu Dan glanced away.
"You haven't told me your name yet."
Fu Suxin said extremely carefully, for fear of accidentally irritating the senior.
"Kong Zhai."
Gu Dan waved his hand casually and turned around to go down the mountain.
"Senior Kong, will you come again the next time the carp leaps over the dragon gate?"
Fu Suxin looked at Gu Dan's back and asked.
"maybe."
As the sound came, the sound gradually faded away.
Fu Suxin patted her head and frowned slightly, "I wanted to thank Senior Kong in person. Why did I forget to say it! I didn't invite Senior Kong to Dingguo as a guest. He was obviously in a good mood. Really?" yes"
Return to the foot of Ping An Village in Zhenchuan.
"This time I go to the mountains again. It may take extra time. There is no need to look for me."
Gu Dan said.
"good."
Zhuang Sheng nodded simply.
He never asked Gu Dan why he went to the mountains or what he was doing, nor was he curious about it.
No matter from any angle, this is a very comfortable friend.
"See you next time."
Gu Dan waved his hand, taking nothing with him, and walked into the inaccessible mountains again alone.
Now that the thread has been grasped, there is no reason to continue waiting. He has been waiting for this day for too long, and has worked hard for too long.
Arriving at a mountain where there were few traces of birds and animals, Gu Dan used his true energy to dig a big hole again and let out blood.
When the blood gradually filled the pit, Gu Dan jumped directly in.
This time, if he does not refine the acquired Qi, he will not be able to take a single step out of the mountain.
What is different this time is that he is not only refining the acquired Qi, but he is also refining it with himself!
