"yes, it's beautiful!" Hodge smiled and nodded.

The time in this small mountain village was really unforgettable for him, and Hodge didn't want to leave at this time, but he just thought about it, he still had a mission, and he was destined not to enjoy happiness here in his life.

"Hodge!"

Suddenly, Zi Yan shouted in a low voice.

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Hodge turned to look at Zi Yan.

"Now that your cultivation has completely recovered, you should be leaving in a few days, right?" Zi Yan asked cautiously.

Hearing this, Hodge was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, and said, "Zi Yan, I have my mission, I have to do it, not only the Huo family's problem, but I also have no choice." ”

"My life was doomed the moment I was born, I had to fight for that mission, and I could never give up, giving up was only a dead end. ”

"If I can choose, I don't want to work hard to reach the top all my life, before the Huo family is destroyed, I have always been happy, at that time, how I hope this happiness can be forever, if I can choose, I must choose to spend this life happily. ”

"But the truth is very ruthless, it wasn't until the moment of the collapse of the Huo family that I woke up, my previous happy life was all maintained by the elders, people have to grow up, and when you grow up, you will find that life is not as good as you imagined. ”

"How I hope that I can have a life like yours, the people in the village envy me for my cultivation, and I can use my own strength to shelter my relatives from the wind and rain, but who would have thought how much I would like to have a life like yours, if the people of our Huo family are like you, living in seclusion in this paradise, then even if we don't cultivate, we are happy. ”

Hodge sighed and stopped talking, he knew he had said much.

"Is it happy to live in seclusion?" Zi Yan said with a miserable smile: "There is no so-called happiness in this world at all, in your opinion, our life in seclusion is very happy, but only if you really live in the village for a few years, you will find that the same life consumes our lives, we don't know what the meaning of human life is, generation after generation of people work hard to maintain their lives, we are like labor machines, we have been working like this to consume our lives until the moment we fall." ”

Zi Yan's words suddenly shocked Hodge's heart, and at this time Hodge had a creepy feeling, he had never thought of this before.

"Seriously, I yearn for your power, how I want to see the outside world, even if I go out and die, but I also want to let my limited life see something in our legends, instead of living a life in this small village and waiting for death to come. Zi Yan said bitterly.

Hodge trembled all over, and after being silent for a long time, he approached Zi Yan and hugged Zi Yan, and said softly: "Yan'er, you wait for me, when I have a firm foothold in the Ten Thousand Evil Canyon, and when I break through to the Spirit Pattern Realm, I will come back to pick you up from the village." ”

After hearing Hodge's words, Zi Yan turned her head to look at Hodge.

Hodge continued: "My current cultivation, you will have life safety at any time after you follow me out, you wait for me, at most two years, I will be able to break through to the Spirit Pattern Realm, and then I will come back to pick you up and take you to our Night Rakshasa, when the time comes, I will teach you how to cultivate, I will let you extend your life little by little, and in the future, when I reach a certain level, I will take you to see the scenery on the entire continent." ”

Zi Yan bit her lip and fell silent, she wanted to promise Hodge, but she couldn't, because the village elders wouldn't allow it.

"Don't worry, I will find a way to solve it when the village chief and them are, no matter what, I will take you away, you remember, your life belongs to you, not to this village, no one has the right to restrict you from seeing the outside world, you are not destined to be born in this small mountain village. Hodge said.

Hearing this, Zi Yan's eyes showed a glint of hope, she nodded, and said, "Okay! I'll wait for you to pick me up,"

"After I go out, I want to marry you and take care of you for the rest of your life, are you willing to be my wife?" Hodge looked at Zi Yan and said softly.

Zi Yan nodded heavily: "I am willing!"

......

Under the moonlight, Hodge and Zi Yan sat on the shore, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the night.

"Yan'er, I'm always a little worried, the monster we met here last time, why did a monster appear out of thin air in the lake? Hodge said.

Zi Yan tilted her head and looked at Hodge: "Didn't the village chief say it, it may be a spirit beast that got lost and ran in, don't worry about this." ”

In Zi Yan's heart, everything is so simple.

Hodge shook his head and said: "Although our Huo family is not a big family on the mainland, it is still okay in the Burning Domain, and the collected classics almost record the vast majority of spirit beasts on the continent, not to mention anything else, the spirit beasts in the Land of the Holy Spirit are basically recorded, even if I haven't seen it, then I can feel what a spirit beast is." ”

"That monster was so strange that night, no spirit animal felt like this, and I was very uneasy in my heart, what if there were monsters ravaging the village after I was gone. ”

At this moment, Hodge's mood was very heavy, the reason why the monster he called it a monster was because the monster that day gave him a feeling that was too weird, and he could be regarded as a person who had seen hundreds of spirit beasts, and no monster had such a feeling.

"Yan'er, you wait for me here, I'll dive into the lake to look for the monster's body, and when I find it, I'll take it out of the village and ask the rest of the continent. Hodge got up and said, with that, he picked up a branch from the ground, poured his spiritual power into it, and handed it to Zi Yan.

"Yan'er, you hold this branch, if something is wrong or you feel afraid to break this branch immediately, I will sense it and I will rush out as soon as possible. ”

"Okay, then be careful!" Zi Yan took the branch and nodded.

Hodge walked towards the lake, a yellowish aura appeared on his body, covering his body, and then Hodge took a deep breath and flew up and dived into the bottom of the lake.

His current cultivation is not enough, he can only hold his breath for a long time, and only after reaching the Spirit Pattern Realm can he breathe underwater.

After diving into the water, Hodge immediately began to let go of his divine sense in the place where the monster sank last time and began to investigate, and now his refining body five stars just happened to have a divine sense coverage of fifty meters, compared to the past few days, even if the monster corpse floated away, it would not float too far.

However, the next step did not go as smoothly as Hodge expected, he searched all the surrounding waters of three hundred meters, but never found the corpse of the monster, and he had been shielding his breath long enough that he had to rush out of the water to breathe.

"Whew-"

Hodge took a deep breath of air and looked at the entire lake, which was not small, according to his estimates, it should be more than ten kilometers long.

"Found no Hodge?"

After seeing Hodge coming up, Zi Yan hurriedly ran over and asked.

"No, the monster corpse doesn't know where it went, it looks like it should have been washed away far away, no wonder your father didn't find it last time, I'll look for it again." ”

Hodge dived under the water again, heading out for the rest of the water, and as that was how he swam slowly, using his senses to investigate, but after a long search, he never found the body of the monster last time.

......

"It's weird, it stands to reason that this is not a river, so it shouldn't float too far!"

Hodge flew out of the water in a depressed mood and flew to the shore, continuously letting go of the Divine Sense Detection and the Spiritual Light Protector consumed a lot of his spiritual power, and he now needed to recover his spiritual power.

If you continue to look for it, if there is a sudden situation, then his combat power will decrease, although the probability of this kind of thing appearing is very small, but Hodge always remains vigilant, because since a monster can emerge last time, then maybe a second one will appear, if this time it is a monster with a strong cultivation, then he is not unlucky.

......

"How's it going, Hodge?" asked Zi Yan, who had now flown out of the water many times in a row, but never found the monster's body.

"Forget it, don't look for it, my current ability can't search the lake at all, let's talk about this matter later. Hodge said with a sigh.

"Oh!"

Hodge walked up and said to Zi Yan with a smile: "Do you still want to experience the feeling of flying?" I am now refining the five-star and flying much faster than before, I can only fly with a secret treasure before, and the speed is not fast at all, now let you feel my real speed?"

"Okay!"

Zi Yan smiled and agreed, Hodge picked up Zi Yan and flew over the lake, after turning around the lake, Hodge asked loudly:

"How's it going?"

"Happy!" Zi Yan nodded with a smile and said, "You are so powerful, you fly so fast, if only I could fly to the sky." ”

At this time, Zi Yan looked excited, looking down at the entire lake in the air, she had never seen the lake so much in the sky, she was very satisfied at this moment.

Hearing this, Huo Qi smiled and whispered to Zi Yan: "In the future, when you have cultivation, you can also do it, our Huo family ancestor, cultivate the cultivation of the third step of the Qinglan Realm, if he is here, his divine sense can cover the entire lake, everything in the lake can't escape his divine sense, when he was a child, he took me to fly, and he can fly back to your home from here in the blink of an eye, after you start cultivating in the future, I will give you the best resources, and it won't take a few years for you to become this kind of speed." ”

"Well, that kind of speed I've never dreamed of. Zi Yan said with a sweet smile.

At this moment, Zi Yan's longing for a cultivator reached its peak, and after listening to Hodge's words, she really wanted to start cultivating immediately.
