Chapter 5: The Past
When they woke up the next day, the villagers found that the people from other villages they had rescued yesterday were already able to walk on the ground and seemed to be looking good. Huo Yan also greeted the villagers warmly, although everyone had a respectful attitude towards him, but they all gave a smile.
Huo Yan came all the way to the martial arts training ground in the village, and when he saw the happy smiles on the faces of the villagers, his originally firm belief seemed to be shaken, and he began to doubt whether what he was going to do was right or wrong.
"Brother Huo Yan, how is your health? Looking at your complexion, it seems to be much better. When Zhuge Hong saw Huo Yan coming to the martial arts training ground, he hurried over to say hello.
"Well, it's much better, thank you for saving your life."
"Don't say that, although it's the first time we've met, we can't die without help, there's no such reason in this world."
Hearing Zhuge Hong's words, this folk style is really simple, maybe it's good like this.
"Oh, by the way, I saw that you guys seem to be practicing something just now, can you show me some more practice?"
"You say this, this is a few actions that we often do to exercise the strength of the body, and we don't understand why, but we just think that if we do this, the body does have a lot of strength." Zhuge Hong patiently did a few actions they often do.
Huo Yan watched Zhuge Hong finish these actions very seriously, and with Zhuge Hong's actions, the shock in Huo Yan's heart became bigger and bigger, and these actions made it not so easy for him to do them. Moreover, there seems to be some inexplicable truth in these actions. If they keep doing it, their body strength, nerve reflex speed, and muscle control can all reach a very high level. If you start training these movements from an early age, you will lay a solid physical foundation, and learning various fighting qi and fighting techniques will get twice the result with half the effort. It's just that it seems that the villagers here don't need to be like this, the simple folk customs here, the happiness on everyone's faces, maybe these actions are really what they use to strengthen their bodies.
"You did a very good job, these movements can really increase the strength of the body, I only watched it once, I haven't thought about some specific principles yet, it's really good." Huo Yan praised Zhuge Hong from the bottom of his heart.
"Hey, yes! Brother Huo Yan, if you want to learn, I can teach you! ”
Huo Yan looked at Zhuge Hong in surprise, and then smiled: "Oh, thank you, I will definitely learn these movements from you if I have the opportunity." ”
"You see, I forgot that your body is still a little weak, and when you are completely healed, I will definitely teach you these few movements." Zhuge Hong's bold personality is very likable.
"Let's go, Brother Huo Yan, let's go home for breakfast, we won't have anything to eat when we go back late." Zhuge Hong pulled Huo Yan and walked home.
By the time they got home, they had everything ready.
"You're back, our dad came just now, and said that he would let Mr. Huo go after dinner." Zhuge Hong's wife said casually when she saw them coming back.
"Yes, good. I'll accompany Brother Huo Yan over in a while. ”
Twenty minutes later.
"You guys are here, I don't know how Mr. Huo's health is? Do you still need to take a break? ”
"Thanks to the village chief's concern, I'm almost fine. Thank you for your hospitality, and I'll be saying goodbye in a few days. Huo Yan obviously didn't want to reveal anything too much.
"It's just Mr. Huo, I have a doubt, I wonder if Mr. Huo can help me answer it?" Zhuge Chao still didn't give up.
"Village chief, please speak, if it doesn't involve confidentiality, I will say everything!"
"Thank you, Mr. Huo. I just want to ask Mr. Huo, why are you here? ”
Huo Yan pondered slightly, looked at Zhuge Chao and Zhuge Yun again, and seemed to have made a big decision. "I'm here for an answer!"
"The answer? What's the answer? ”
"I want to know what's on the other side of the mountain."
"The other side of the mountain? I've never been out of the village, I don't know, but I think the other side of the mountain must be similar to ours. Zhuge Chao said thoughtfully.
Huo Yan shook his head.
"When I once climbed over a mountain, I suddenly noticed that the customs and customs on both sides of the mountain had changed a lot. I thought it was a very interesting thing, and then I kept wanting to see the other side of the mountain, and in the process, I saw a lot of interesting people, a lot of interesting things happened, and some people gave me a lot of inspiration and guidance. And so I climbed mountain after hill and came here. ”
"Oh? You've climbed so many mountains, haven't you found the answer? ”
"I think I already have the answer, maybe if I go over this mountain again, I won't do it again, but I still want to go to the depths of the mountain."
"The depths of the mountains? You mean this mountain behind our village? Deep in the wilderness? It's too dangerous! Zhuge Chao couldn't seem to believe it.
Huo Yan nodded affirmatively.
"I know. It's just that don't you think it's a happy thing to explore the unknown? Even if you sacrifice your life for it! "The righteousness that Huo Yan said is awe-inspiring.
But Huo Yan still didn't tell the secret in his heart in the end, which may be a good thing for Zhuge Village, at least they live a good life like this, carefree and happy.
"Mr. Huo is really very human!" Zhuge Chao sighed when he heard this, and from the bottom of his heart, Zhuge Chao also believed Huo Yan's words.
"Since that's the case, Xiao Hong, you go and prepare some food and water, and then prepare some healing medicine and send it here!"
Soon, Zhuge Hong returned.
"Mr. Huo, there's nothing we can do to help you. Please be careful and accept it. If one day, Mr. Huo finds the answer, or is tired, Zhuge Village will sweep the bed and welcome! ”
"Thank you! You first have the grace of saving your life, and then you have the righteousness of giving medicine, and you can't repay it. Huo Yan made a deep sigh.
"Mr. Huo is polite, when we hear the life described by Mr. Huo, we yearn for it, but we are entangled in the world and can't go along. If you return, you can stay here for a few days and tell us about the world outside the mountain. ”
"If there is a day, I will be troubled."
"Old Mr. Zhuge , I have something to ask for, I don't know ......" Huo Yan seemed to have made a lot of determination.
"Mr. Huo, please speak."
Huo Yan took out a brocade box from behind him, which was very small. "Mr. Zhuge Lao, I want to put this brocade box here for you."
Zhuge Chao took the brocade box, which was very light. "Mr. Huo, please tell me if you have any requirements!"
"Mr. Zhuge doesn't need to do anything. If I come back, give it back to me; If I don't come back, please give Mr. Zhuge to the destined person who came here, drop a drop of blood on it, and if you can open the brocade box, give it to him; If Brother Zhuge Hong hasn't waited for me or someone destined to come, please destroy the brocade box! Huo Yan said solemnly.
"Mr. Huo, don't worry, I will do it." Zhuge Chao's father and son promised.
Early the next morning, when Zhuge Hong wanted to call Huo Yan to dinner, he found that he had already left, and he didn't even say hello.
"We haven't seen him since that day. Later, my father solemnly handed over the brocade box to me and asked me to continue to wait for the destined person. "Zhuge Yun is still immersed in memory." It's just that I didn't expect that this is a space ring, and it is a high-level space ring, which is something that only exists in legends. ”
Chen took the space ring from Zhuge Yun's hand and groaned slightly. "I seem to know how to use this space ring!" Then, Tatsumi opened the spatial ring. The internal space of this spatial ring is very large, and it seems to be a little larger than Zhuge Village. Through perception, Chen seems to feel the sun, rain and dew in this space ring, and also feels the faint wind blowing.
"Is this as real as the space we live in?" Tatsumi was also a little shocked.
"Chen, come here." Zhuge Yun saw Chen's shocked look, and said solemnly, "I know that you will definitely go out of the village in the future, this high-level space ring must be put away, in case others see that you have such a good thing and bring you harm, you can't have the heart of harming people, but you can't have the heart of preventing people!" ”
"Grandpa the village chief, don't worry, I'll be careful. It's just that such a big ring is too abrupt on the finger, so it would be nice if it could be made smaller. Tatsubi said.
As soon as Chen finished speaking, something unexpected happened, and the ring slowly shrunk, and Chen's slender fingers gradually fit together.
"That's amazing!" Chen shouted, from this point of view, Chen is still just a child, although he has an old town that other children don't have, but after all, he is only a five-year-old child.
Could this ring change according to my ideas?
"Well, it would be nice if this ring became more ordinary, and it was better to make it impossible for others to see that it was a ring." Tatsu decided to give it a try.
This ring seems to be able to really hear Chen's speech.,Slowly becoming ordinary.,Finally, it's like a small circle of tattoos on Chen's finger.,If you don't look carefully.,Lian Chen forgot that there was a ring on his finger.。
At this time, Zhuge Yun seemed to be stunned by this scene, shook his head vigorously, and looked at the ring on the finger of Chen's left hand that resembled a tattoo.
"Well, so you won't be afraid that others will covet your ring. Since you are the person Mr. Huo said, then you will be called Huo Chen in the future. Okay, Huo Chen, I'm a little tired, you go back and study this ring first, and see what it can bring you? You're old too, so you'll go to the martial arts training ground tomorrow to learn that set of moves. When you are older and have the ability to protect yourself, leave the village! After so many things, Zhuge Yun's emotions have fluctuated too much, after all, he is dozens of years old, and his body is a little unbearable, and he doesn't even care about what is in this ring.
"Yes, village chief grandpa, you can rest well, I'll go first." Tatsu is also a little impatient.
In fact, Chen and Zhuge Yun both neglected one point: what is the relationship between Yan and Chen. Why is the destined person in the mouth of the flame Chen?
