Zhou Ji thoughtfully climbed down the cliff and trekked for several days before returning to the earthen house where he lived daily. The light inside the house was dim, with hay mats spread on the floor and large and small baskets, pottery pots, and stone utensils piled in the corners. He sat quietly for a moment, stroking the jade bottle with his rough fingers, narrowing his eyes slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. The peaceful days will not last long, and I will eventually leave this small earthen house and embark on an unknown journey.
He sighed and poured out a soybean-sized elixir from the jade bottle. The fragrance of the elixir was fragrant and penetrated the heart and spleen, making every 3,600 pores in his body feel comfortable. This is a panacea treasured in Xianyue Sanxing Cave, and it is of great benefit to Zixu Yiyuan Gong. He hesitated for a moment, put his palm to his mouth, raised his head and swallowed.
A ball of warm current rolls into the belly, mellow and gentle, and the true energy in the body is like running water in the mountains. It circles around when it encounters rocks and lingers when it encounters deep pools. It goes as it should and stops as it should, gradually growing stronger. Zhou Ji stuffed the jade bottle into the clay pot without adjusting his breath or meditating. He stood up and stretched his muscles. He picked up a few rattan baskets and walked out of the earthen house. He strode to the mountain stream, built a stone embankment and buried the rattan baskets in the water. , folded a few branches and leaves to cover it, and waited for the fish and shrimp to fall into the trap.
He then took the Xingchi Jiaxue Dao and went to the forest to cut down a bunch of small trees several inches in diameter. Compared with the crude stone axe, the Caius Jiaxue was extremely sharp, and he could lift the knife and drop it effortlessly. Tu Zhen looked at him from a distance for a long time and saw him busy beside the earthen house. He seemed to think that the earthen house was too small and wanted to build another room. She didn't step forward to help, but just watched with cold eyes, watching him sweat profusely, watching him busy, watching him caressing his belly, feeling hungry, giving up what he was doing, going to the mountain stream to put away the rattan basket, pour out the caught fish and shrimp, and disembowel them. Wash and peel the broken belly, throw it into a clay pot and cook it randomly. Watch him remove the fence, dig out a few cassava from the field, bury it in the ashes and simmer until cooked.
After so many years, she still didn't understand what Zhou Ji was thinking?
Zhou Ji filled his stomach, buried fish bones, shrimp shells and cassava peels in the soil, looked up at the sky with bright clouds, the sky gradually dimmed, and stars all over the sky. He couldn't help but be fascinated for a while.
At sunrise and sunset, the waves on Xianling Island were calm. Tu Zhen watched it for several days and then realized that Zhou Ji had just built a grass shed for shelter from the rain. It used wood as the frame, rattan as the tent, and placed a Put several layers of straw mats on the bed to keep away the moisture and sleep soundly. I got the star chip to solve the problem, but I don't want to live and practice, I just sleep comfortably, the pearl casts darkness, making people speechless.
A few days later, Zhou Ji twisted a strong bark rope, tied it tightly to the handle of the knife, and clumsily practiced the swing knife. The thick tree trunk was more than ten steps away. He picked up the star chip knife and threw it with his hands. He pulled the rope back and got one or two out of ten. The accuracy was so weird that Tu Zhen shook his head repeatedly. Zhou Ji was neither in a hurry nor annoyed, and concentrated on practicing his swinging knife. A stupid person worked hard and spent several months. When the swinging knife was somewhat good, he went into the forest to hunt small animals.
At the beginning, I entered the mountain empty-handed and came out empty-handed. Gradually, the blind cat encountered a dead mouse and hit a moribund mountain rat. He peeled the skin and roasted it to eat. It was oily and burnt and fragrant. Although it lacked salt and sauce, it was lighter than the plain one. I don’t know how delicious it is to cook fish in plain water. Finally, Zhou Ji still remembered Tu Zhen, so he turned around and looked for a moment, trying to give in. Tu Zhen didn't show up, so he ate it by himself, even breaking the bones and sucking the marrow, making a slurping sound.
As time goes by, Zhou Ji's swing knife becomes more and more accurate. From mountain rats to bamboo chickens, to yellow deer, to wild boars, he can point to the east to hit the west and the point to hit the north. He is as graceful as a startling giant and as powerful as a swimming dragon. Whenever he makes a move, for example It's true, Tu Zhen finally understood. Although he didn't deliberately refine this sword, he was practicing it every moment. The Xingchi Jiniu Sword had already been deeply imprinted on him and became a sect that operates at will. It was a magic weapon, but he didn't use real energy to activate it. It was only used as a short knife for cutting down trees, catching animals, and disemboweling flesh.
With the Star Chips Jieniu Dao, life was very comfortable. Zhou Ji never tired of it and became a hunter. He would run into the mountains and forests every three days, catch prey, roast it on the fire, wolf it down, break the bones and suck out the marrow, and wear animal skins or Pad, snoring like thunder. The elixirs in the jade bottle decreased one by one, and the true energy in his body grew stronger day by day, forming a slow flowing river with deep still water, nourishing the organs, muscles, bones, meridians and acupuncture points, and his cultivation improved greatly.
On this day, he finally finished taking the elixir. Feeling disappointed, he rubbed the jade bottle for a long time, hid it back in the clay pot, and left. After walking for a few steps, I stopped, took a look at the earthen house, the thatched shed, and the mountain stream, sighed, and never looked back.
He trekked for several days, climbed up the cliff, and walked all the way to the floating palace. Without hesitation, he pushed open the two doors of destiny and stepped into the hall under Tu Zhen's gaze.
Looking up, Wei Shiqi was sitting on the couch. Three balls of light floated in front of him. There was an object in each of them, rising or falling, and the precious light was flowing erratically. Zhou Ji became curious and walked closer to take a look. He saw an old lock with a simple style on the left, which was not amazing in appearance. In the middle was a nine-story, eight-sided gold pagoda, which was dim and unpretentious. On the right was a red jade mountain. Suddenly, Light and dark. He could tell at a glance that the lock was the Chaos Qi Cave Sky Lock, the tower was the Kunwu Golden Pagoda, and the mountain was the Red Flame Jade Mountain.
Wei Shiqi looked at him for a moment and said slowly: "There is a cave hidden in this chaotic cave. Counting on one's fingers, thousands of years have passed in the lower world. Things have changed and people have changed. Vicissitudes of time have changed. I don't know what it has become. Look. You go to the lower realm. There are two things you need to do. One is to check whether the fixed star cone is in good condition and whether the demon is in danger of escaping. The other is to find the Demon Refining Sword and bring it back to this world. This lock has been linked to the demon. , Celestial Demon, and Demon Slave have suffered several catastrophes, their origins have been damaged, and now they can only endure the Cave Heaven Realm. You can suppress your cultivation in the lower realm for the time being, and when you come back, you can occupy an island to yourself and choose an opportunity to break through the realm."
Zhou Ji lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said calmly: "If you go to the lower realm with the cultivation level of Dongtian Realm, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens."
"It doesn't matter, I'll give you another way to save your life." Wei Shiqi had already planned to activate his murderous intention. He curled his finger and probed, and a ray of hairspring shot out and disappeared into the center of his eyebrows.
The murderous intention condensed into a gossamer, and he huddled in the Niwan Palace. Zhou Ji smacked his lips, but it was not enough, and said: "There are three life-saving hairs on the back of Monkey Sun's head——"
Wei Shiqi laughed and said: "Three is three, as you wish." He flicked twice more and sent two strands of hairspring into his Niwan Palace. He raised his hand and patted it under the armpit of his right arm. His eyes lit up, and Baopuzi's spirit floated out. He reached out and pointed at the Chaos Qi Cave Heaven Lock, and his body dimmed instantly, leaving only a faint shadow.
Chaos energy caused the cave sky lock to tremble slightly, the light shined brightly, and there were several rolling sounds, splitting the cave sky. Zhou Ji stepped into the cave without hesitation, and the torrent of time swept over him, drowning him. In an instant, his heart was like a bright mirror and his body was spinning. Zhou Ji smiled slightly and said to himself, he broke through the iron cage to escape the tiger and leopard, opened the golden lock and ran away the dragon. Once he was gone, there was a boundary between yin and yang, and he didn't know how many years or months he would be able to turn back.
