"Little brother, don't think too much, this is the life of mortals like us, we can't beat it, and we can't run away.

Since he came here with a single mind, now he can only be trapped here by these immortals. ”

The strong man seemed to have helplessness in his words, and said softly.

Yes, if it wasn't for the fact that I tried my best to come to this immortal gate, how could I fall into this predicament now?

But if you don't come and take a look, how do you know if it's better to be an immortal or a mortal?

What if you pass the test and are selected to enter the gate, you can become a cultivator?

Just like the things of this world, whether it is right or wrong, no one can tell.

In other words, in this world, there is no right or wrong at all, but when the mind moves, the road is under your feet, and that's it.

The road that others have walked is someone else's after all, and the road you have traveled is your own life.

The sun rises three poles, and the golden sunlight shines all over the earth.

Everyone here has found a shady place, closed their eyes, and wandered around and bored.

From time to time, a breeze blows, making people comfortable, sleepy, and drowsy.

Qingyun sat with the strong man, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but wonder:

"Aren't we going to come here to pick some herbs and go back, it's almost noon now, why don't anyone get up to collect herbs?"

The strong man replied:

"Do you know that there are tens of thousands of people in the back mountain, why is this Xinghe Gate still recruiting disciples in the past few years, and then throwing them into this big mountain?"

"Why?"

"Because there is no one to watch over the mountains, they know that we must be lazy here, so they must have thrown more people in.

Doing things here, so that even if one person picks up one herb, ten thousand people are ten thousand.

They don't care if you work hard or are opportunistic, as long as you bring things back, they will definitely not trouble you. ”

The strong man said with a hearty smile.

Qingyun closed his eyes when he heard these words, and said thoughtfully:

"I see".

He thought for a moment and asked:

"If that's the case, then the exercises he gave us, can't we practice?"

The strong man said: "There is no problem with this volume of exercises, and it can also be cultivated. ”

Qingyun said: "Then have you ever practiced?

When the strong man heard this, he smiled bitterly and said slowly:

"Otherwise, what can we do? To us, this exercise is already more valuable than anything in the mortal world.

Moreover, we can't get the best exercises from the outer or inner disciples.

In order to live a better life, try not to let yourself be infected with diseases, and there are no disasters, which is already satisfied. ”

At this time, Qingyun suddenly became interested and continued to ask:

"Then what kind of realm have you cultivated with this technique? In addition to the exercises, what other spells have you learned?"

"In the mountains behind this, the aura is normal, not as rich as inside the door.

And I'm not very talented, so far, it's only two layers of the Gathering Spirit.

You see, the people here have been here for many years, and some of them haven't even reached the first floor yet.

It's just that it's better than ordinary people's health, not to mention those immortal spells. ”

When Qingyun heard this, he was greatly disappointed, and thought that with this exercise, he could easily cultivate into a great cultivator, split mountains and gravel, and fly in the air.

If you think about it carefully, I feel that this exercise is nothing more than that.

It's just that this mortal body, after all, is not as good as a person who has cultivated, and something is better than nothing, he thought in his heart.

The forest fell silent for an instant, as if no one existed here if the two of them were silent.

No one is talking, as if they are all enjoying this comfort and tranquility.

There was silence all around, and from time to time I heard the leaves of the trees blown by the wind, making a rustling sound.

Occasionally drop a leaf or two, whirl in the air, keep tumbling, and then float down leisurely.

Forcibly drive away the troubles of being trapped here in your mind, in this green, fat, red and thin deep mountain woods, ride the shade of the trees, listen to the wind, and be leisurely.

You don't have to worry about the world of cholera, and you don't have to think about how to work hard to get the next meal.

Lazy and idle, soft bones and crisp muscles, really carefree, and in a good mood.

"If you can really live in the back mountain like this for the rest of your life, it would be good.

This place is good, there is no food and clothing, no disasters and diseases, and practicing that spirit gathering technique can also prolong life.

Compared to my previous life, my current life is like that real scattered immortal, free and easy. ”

Qingyun was lying on the grass, drowsy, but he still thought so silently in his heart.

I don't know how long it took, Qingyun was in a daze, and felt someone patting him on the shoulder.

"Wake up, wake up, it's not too early, let's go get something to eat.

After filling your stomach, you can pick some herbs and go back. ”

Qingyun's sleepy eyes were hazy, narrowed into a slit, and looked at the person who woke him up next to him, who was the strong man who had dozed beside him before.

He looked up at the sky again, and it was already half of the afternoon, and the sun was fading, hanging in the western sky.

Qingyun lay down flat, took a few deep breaths of the grass and trees here, and then opened his eyes and got up.

I felt that my stomach was also hungry, and I couldn't help but look at the strong man, his face was full of curiosity, and the first sentence asked:

"Where are we going to eat? Is there anything else to eat here?"

The strong man also rubbed his sleepy eyes, snorted, and said lightly to him while leading everyone here:

"Of course, there is a place near here where many wild fruits from the mountains grow, and the number of them is so large that we individuals can't eat them all in a year. ”

After saying that, he paused, and then continued:

"Not only us, but everyone else has found a place where there are mountain fruits, and they have surrounded a mountain forest.

In this way, you can not only take medicine and make a difference, but also recuperate, and you can eat and drink without going back to your residence. ”

Walking on the road, Qingyun discovered a particularly interesting thing.

When they were resting under the tree just now, these people were silent and silent.

But on the way forward, it was like a bunch of middle-aged women, chattering loudly and chattering.

The strong man in the lead, who seemed to see what Qingyun was thinking, also smiled, continued to lead the way, and said without looking back:

"They're usually like that, and when they speak, they can't get a word out.

When they don't let them speak, they are like an elderly woman, nagging, which is really annoying, hahaha......"

Qingyun also smiled knowingly, and did not answer, listening to these people chatting at this time is also a little interesting.

"It's here, it's here. ”

After walking for a while, one of the people in front of me said.

Qingyun looked at it intently, and there were indeed many fruits growing in this place that he didn't even know, green and red, and fruitful.

He stepped forward, and the men in front of him had already gone up to the tree and began to pluck them.

There was the strong man standing under the tree, and a lot of fruit had fallen in front of him, but no one stepped forward to pick it up and eat it, and Qingyun didn't step forward when he saw this.

The strong man seemed to be quite good at winning people's hearts, picked out a few ripe and full fruits from the ground, handed them to Qingyun first, and said:

"You just came here today, and you tasted the wild fruits here, which tasted good, so if you like them, eat more. ”

He stretched out his hand and took it, but he didn't feel dirty, grabbed the corner of his clothes and wiped it, and sent it straight to his mouth, which was sweet and delicious, and the corners of his mouth were suddenly fragrant.

In an instant, everyone here had almost eaten, and their bellies were full, shouting for pleasure.

The group had been out for almost a day, and it was already dusk.

The strong man called the people together at this time, and said in a loud voice:

"Okay brothers, it's not too early, let's also pick some herbs and go back, and the sooner we leave, we can rest earlier."

In the evening, you may be able to steal some free time to consolidate the exercises and strive for an early breakthrough. ”

"Okay boss, let's go pick a few medicinal herbs so that we can go back and hand them over. Someone immediately replied.

"Let's go pick herbs. ”

More than a dozen people dispersed in response to the sound and divided into search for medicinal materials.

Qingyun watched them move individually, standing in place, not knowing what to do.

Because he didn't know where the herbs were, and he didn't know them.

Fortunately, the strong man also stayed here, walked to Qingyun's side, and said to him with a smile:

"It doesn't matter, they are all old people here, they are familiar with the environment here, where there is and where there is not, they know it in their hearts.

In a few days, when you are familiar with the roads here, I will show you around, and you can do it yourself in the future. ”

Qingyun nodded happily, bent down and saluted and replied:

"Qingyun has caused you trouble, thank you Big Brother for taking such good care......"

In a short time, the dozen or so young people who had just dispersed had all returned to this place.

Each of them was holding three or two unknown herbs in their hands, and their expressions were flat.

"Let's go, let's go back, tomorrow, and take you to other realms to see and learn. ”

A group of people stepped on the remnant sun and walked straight on the road when they came, slowly and leisurely.

The expression on his face is indisputable, giving people the feeling that it is difficult to have something that they can be interested in in this world.

Back in the grass hut, Qingyun took out the volume of "Spirit Gathering Technique" obtained from Yan Hua and tried to cultivate.

Maybe it's because of my poor qualifications, I sat on the bed and practiced for a long time, but after all, I couldn't learn the method, and I didn't get the slightest aura into my body.

Therefore, I was irritable in my heart, so I simply lost my books and went out for a walk.

The moonlight was just right, and Qingyun looked out after going out, from the foot of the mountain in the distance, all the way to the square here.

There are all kinds of people walking, playing, and watching the moonlight, and the scene is very lively.

"It turns out that there are so many people who go out at night to have fun, although Yan Tao explicitly prohibits cheating and cheating, everyone has endless work.

But at night, he never went out to take care of things, perhaps because night was not under his jurisdiction.

Or maybe he knew that he had offended too many people, and he was afraid that someone would take advantage of the darkness of the night.

If you can't see the murderer, there will be no one to stand up for him, so you don't dare to go out, right?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile dumbly, and secretly pondered in his heart.

Slowly wandering around the square, all of a sudden, his heart stirred up turbulent waves.

Because in the midst of that countless crowds, he saw a figure.

He immediately ran forward quickly, getting closer and closer, and the back in his eyes became clearer and clearer.

Finally, he came behind the man, as if he had been struck by lightning.

"It's ...... You...... He...... Who is this? Who is this?"

Qingyun opened his mouth slightly in shock and muttered to himself.

The figure in front of him seemed to be engraved in the depths of his soul, so familiar.

But he couldn't remember in his head, who he was?

At this moment, this figure seemed to be endlessly unfamiliar, making him ready to ask, but he hesitated and stopped talking.

The owner of this figure seemed to have discovered the abnormality behind it, and turned around, but his eyes were full of questions:

"Who are you?"

Qingyun stared at the face in front of him, this face that seemed to be only engraved in his soul, but not imprinted in his mind, asked with a trembling voice:

"You...... What's your name?"
