Chapter 142: Re-entering the Lake of Stars
The party in Linxing Village lasted until late at night, at the party, Chen Yuan told his family and friends in detail about his experience in the Taoist Academy in the past six months, including apprenticeship Ning ruthless, the beast tide mission, the academy competition, of course, the difficulties and dangers in the mission, nine deaths and life, and the serious injuries on the academy competition were all brought by Chen Yuan, he didn't want his family to worry.
also talked about the prosperity and majesty of Youtian City, the composition of the Taoist Academy and how to teach, everyone in Linxing Village listened with fascination, and they were very envious of Chen Yuan's experience in the past six months, especially when he heard Chen Yuan tell about the battle at the level of the academy's big competition, Jun Ruyu's strength directly shocked everyone.
The simple villagers couldn't imagine that in this world, there are really people who can be so powerful that they can turn the virtual into reality, evolve the scenery of mountains and rivers in their hands, and use the vision of heaven and earth to suppress and defeat the enemy.
It was late at night, the villagers gradually dispersed, and Chen Yuan also followed his parents back to his home, lying on the familiar small bed, Chen Yuan was extremely relaxed, and before he knew it, he fell asleep. Early the next morning, the biological clock that has been developed made Chen Yuan wake up early, he stretched his waist, walked into the yard, from his own well, took a handful of water, washed his face, with some cool well water took away Chen Yuan's last trace of tiredness, listening to the crisp and pleasant bird and insect chirping in his ears, he couldn't help but sigh that life in the village was comfortable.
"Mother, I'll go out for a trip to find the big gray and golden feathers, and I'll come back before dinner today. After breakfast, Tatsumoto wiped his mouth and said to his mother, who was cleaning up the dishes.
"Got it, you come back early. "Mother has no objection to Chen Yuan's move to go out again as soon as he comes back, the gray-maned wolf king is gray, and the golden feather eagle is a frequent visitor to the village, under Chen Yuan's entrustment, Chen Yuan has been absent for half a year, they are in the village, often sending some rare prey, since Chen Yuan is back, it is also appropriate to go and see them.
Out of the village, Chen Yuan went straight to the dense forest in the southeast of Linxing Village, in the middle of the dense forest, a huge gray wolf was lazily lying on a huge rock, leisurely basking in the sun, he is the well-deserved overlord of this dense forest, the gray-maned wolf king big gray.
Suddenly, its radar-like ears stood up, and it stood cautiously, the wolf on its neck standing up like a needle, and bared its fangs into the thick bushes on its right, looking guarded, for it sensed a powerful aura from its right side, so strong that it was not sure that it had won.
The breath kept getting closer and closer from far to near, and the big gray's expression became more and more nervous. The sound of rustling sounded from the bushes beside him, and suddenly, a hand pushed away the bushes in front of him, and a face that he hadn't seen for a long time appeared in front of Big Ash's eyes.
"You're really here! It's been a long time, Big Ash, you've grown up again!" a young man came out of the bushes, saw Big Ash, and greeted him very familiarly.
Seeing this young man, the big gray eyes suddenly widened, and he ran in front of the young man like a gust of wind, and the excited wolf howled a few times, and the tail kept swaying left and right behind him, because the frequency and force of the swaying were very large, and even brought out gusts of wind.
That's right, the young man in front of the big gray is Chen Yuan, who has returned to Linxing Village, and this time he made a special trip here to visit his old friends. Of course, except for Chen Yuan, I'm afraid that no one can make the big gray who is the wolf king so excited.
Big Ash stuck out his tongue and kept licking Tatsumoto's cheek, which was a way for him to express his excitement. "Okay, okay, don't make trouble, stop it!" Chen Yuan was licked by the big ash, and hurriedly pushed away the excited big ash, and wiped the saliva on his face helplessly.
"You've grown up again. Chen Yuan sat on the boulder where Big Ash was lying and gently scratched Big Ash's neck and said. And the big gray lay back in his original position, whimpered comfortably, rubbed Chen Yuan's body affectionately with his head, and narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.
Indeed, compared with half a year ago, the size of the big gray has grown a lot, it doesn't look like a wolf, it looks more like an adult tiger, and after coming out of Xingchen Lake, the talent of the bloodline has been initially stimulated, and after obtaining the talent of tenacity, the strength is increasing day by day, and even faintly overwhelming the golden feather eagle, the air overlord in the southwest forest.
"Let's go, go see Jin Yu and the old ape!" After chatting with Big Gray for a while, Chen Yuan stepped on Big Gray's broad back and patted Big Gray's back and said. The big gray roared and startled a bird in the forest, and then turned into a whirlwind and rushed towards the southwest forest.
"Whoa!" a high-pitched hiss sounded in the southwest forest, and an eagle carved out of gold rose into the sky, its wings across the sky, quite a bit covering the sky. Before the big gray entered the southwest forest, the golden feather eagle had already rushed out, and it was too familiar with the breath of the big gray.
However, since the big gray returned from Xingchen Lake, his strength has been rising, and the big gray who could only be suppressed by himself has begun to be equal to himself, and even sometimes he can take some slight advantages, which makes the arrogant golden feather eagle a little difficult to accept.
originally thought that the big gray was here to provoke trouble this time, but when the golden feather eagle saw Chen Yuan on the back of the big gray, the original anger was instantly transformed into joy. "Yo-yo!" it let out a cheerful cry as it circled in the air a few times.
Also chatted with the golden feather eagle for a while, Chen Yuan and the big gray went to the old ape in Beishan again, and they didn't see each other for half a year, so they inevitably had another greeting, until the sun sank in the west, Chen Yuan returned home.
"What? You're going to Star Lake again? No! I don't agree. At the dining table, the family was eating dinner, and Chen Yuan suddenly proposed to re-enter the forbidden land of Xingchen Lake, which was immediately strongly opposed by his mother.
"What are you going to do?" Mu Qingfeng was silent for a while, and then asked.
"Go for a medicinal herb called longevity fruit, which can strengthen the foundation and prolong life. Chen Yuan said.
Yanshou fruit was mentioned by the old ape when Chen Yuan went to visit the old ape in Beishan, after yesterday's contact, Chen Yuan found that Mu Yuanshan's body was far weaker than he imagined, and after the side knock during the dinner, Chen Yuan could be regarded as inquiring.
It turned out that Mu Yuanshan was severely injured in his right leg when he was young, and because he had no money for treatment at that time, he gritted his teeth and recuperated by himself, which led to permanent damage to his right hamstring vein, which is also the reason why Mu Yuanshan needed crutches to assist him in walking.
The injury of the right leg tendon and vein caused the flow rate of qi and blood in the right leg to be only one-third of that of the normal body, plus the main tendon and vein were damaged, resulting in poor qi and blood in the whole body.
There is nothing wrong with it for a short time, but as I get older, the problem grows. Because with age, the speed of qi and blood flow and hematopoietic efficiency in the body are already decreasing, and once the flow of qi and blood is not smooth, it is likely to cause various symptoms in some organs due to the drying up of qi and blood. It is precisely because of this that in this world where the average age of ordinary people is more than 100 years old, Mu Yuanshan is only 80 years old, and his vitality has already shown signs of running out of oil and withering out.
Chen Yuan discovered this phenomenon, and was secretly anxious in his heart, and now he asked for help from the Taoist Academy, obviously it was difficult to save the fire from far water, so he thought of the old ape of Beishan. The old ape on the north mountain was born in the mysterious forbidden land of Xingchen Lake, and he is well-informed, and he will definitely be able to give some advice.
Therefore, when he was catching up with the old ape, he mentioned this matter intentionally or unintentionally, originally just with the attitude of giving it a try, but he didn't expect the old ape to really give him a highly feasible suggestion.
According to the old ape, there is a fruit forest in the forbidden land of Xingchen Lake, called the longevity fruit forest, which is a forest composed of a plant called the longevity fruit tree, and the fruit on this fruit tree is called the longevity fruit, and this longevity fruit has the effect of replenishing blood qi and prolonging life.
However, there are advantages and disadvantages of this longevity fruit, the fruit tree that grows in the outermost part of the fruit forest has only one annual ring, and the fruit can only replenish the blood of a year, the more you go into the fruit forest, the more annual rings the fruit tree has, and the more blood and gas the fruit can replenish. Legend has it that in the deepest part there is a longevity tree king with as many as 1,000 annual rings, and the longevity fruit produced on it is a divine product in the elixir, guarded by a divine beast, and almost no one has seen the true face of this tree king.
Chen Yuan's goal this time is to prolong the life fruit, as for the age of course, the higher the better, of course, the divine elixir Chen Yuan can't even think about it, what is the concept of the divine beast Chen Yuan doesn't know, but the deepest part of the longevity forest is already very close to the core area of Xingchen Lake, with Chen Yuan only reaching the cultivation of Shuangxuan, I'm afraid I don't even know how to die when I go in, Chen Yuan still has self-knowledge, after all, the name of the forbidden land of Xingchen Lake is not called in vain.
Hearing Chen Yuan's answer, Mu Qingfeng already knew the plan in Chen Yuan's heart, in Mu Qingfeng's eyes, his son in addition to being wise and close to the demon, he attached great importance to his family and affection, looking at Chen Yuan's firm gaze, Mu Qingfeng knew that Chen Yuan had already made up his mind to find the action of longevity fruit this time.
"Then you can go, but you have to promise to come back within three days, and you must be careful!" Knowing that Chen Yuan had made up his mind, Mu Qingfeng didn't stop him, but just instructed in a serious tone, and his wife on the side was about to say something, but was stopped by Mu Qingfeng.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan hurriedly promised: "Daddy, don't worry, I've been there once, this time it's also experienced, and it's different from last time, this time I not only improved a lot, but also in Xingchen Lake I still have friends I made last time, this time I still take the big ash with me, I must promise to go back quickly, you don't have to worry too much, I have practiced and practiced in the Taoist Academy for half a year, I have measure, believe me, I have confidence in your son!"
Hearing Chen Yuan say this, Mu Qingfeng nodded, and Chen Yuan's mother, Ah Lian, didn't say anything anymore, but the worry was still overflowing, so the atmosphere of this dinner was a little dull.
The next day, Chen Yuan called the big gray, said goodbye to his parents, galloped all the way to the east, on the back of the big gray, Chen Yuan looked at the familiar boundary monument, his heart was full of emotion, gently patted the back of the big gray, a man and a wolf crossed the boundary monument, and plunged into the forbidden Xingchen Lake.
