Chapter 0013 Blackmail
The world cultivates the truth, and there are no wonders!
In terms of lifespan alone, as far as the human race is concerned, because the heaven and earth are full of spiritual energy, in the innate realm, if it is not a sudden disaster, it will generally have a lifespan of 100 years.
In this hundred-year lifespan, as long as you are not a cultivator with extremely poor talent or an ordinary person who is born unable to cultivate, through hard cultivation, you basically have the hope of breaking through to the Zhongtian realm.
Once you break through to the Zhongtian realm, Shouyuan will increase a lot, and every time you break through in the future, Shouyuan will increase accordingly.
If it reaches the acquired realm, the increase in longevity will increase exponentially. So much so that the long-term longevity is absolutely unimaginable to ordinary people.
The world is full of races.
Cultivation is against the sky, and only by transcending oneself and improving one's realm in a limited time can one achieve a leap.
In terms of the human race, compared with other races, the human race has little advantage in terms of longevity, so every time there is a breakthrough, the longevity will increase exponentially, which may also be a law of balance between heaven and earth!
This is something that Duan Qianlang has known for a long time, and it is also the common knowledge of cultivators in the world. Now hearing the old man's words, Duan Qianlang was puzzled, except for some low-level races that had not yet opened their minds, he really couldn't imagine that there were races with less longevity than the human race.
Sensing that Duan Qianlang was still puzzled, the old man said again: "Originally, our ethnic group still had an advantage in terms of longevity. It's just that in the baptism of the years, maybe something has really been violated, and our longevity will be constantly restricted, until now there is a danger of extinction. ”
He also said: "Today's Inspiration Clan, as long as they work hard to cultivate, they can fight for a glimmer of life. It's just that after the breakthrough, the increase in longevity is also limited, so if you want to survive, you must work hard to cultivate all the time. ”
With such an explanation, Duan Qianlang can be regarded as understanding. This is the law of heaven and earth, and now he can't understand it thoroughly, so he can only sigh.
Duan Qianlang said: "Just by those two points, are you so sure of me?"
"Of course not!" the old man shook his head and said, "It's because you have something unique in the world - the Heavenly Evolution Divine Diagram!"
"What?" Duan Qianlang was even more vigilant under his shock, the Heavenly Evolution Divine Diagram was only known to the mysterious old man he had encountered at the beginning, but now it was discovered by the Inspiration Clan, who was like a mortal, could it be said that the perception ability of this race could really defy the sky?
"This is what Xiao Zi sensed. The old man took Xiao Zi's hand, stroked it lovingly, looked at Duan Qianlang again, and said: "The ancestor also said that the person who will save us in the future is not a person from weak Mercury, which means that you are not a person born on this planet!"
Airplanes!
Duan Qianlang was completely stunned, and he could be regarded as convinced, what kind of race is this?
He is not a weak Mercury person, and he is just his own conjecture, but he doesn't want to be broken by the words of these two people in front of him who have never met.
Looking at this little boy who made him a little incredible, he thought of what the old man had said before, and said, "Xiao Zi should be the child with pure blood you said, right?"
"That's right!" the old man nodded and said, "This is also the reason why I sacrificed the entire clan and saved him by death, as long as Xiao Zi does not die, there is hope for my inspired clan!"
He also said: "The Inspiration Clan is born unable to fight, so they need someone to guard their own growth process, I implore Xiao Daoyou to protect Xiao Zi and let him grow up well." ”
"Grandpa......" Xiao Zi "woo" cried.
"Okay, I promise you!" At this moment, Duan Qianlang knew the cause and effect of the matter, and no longer hesitated, and immediately agreed.
"Thank you, little Daoyou!" the old man didn't even seem to have the strength to stand up, bowed his head, and then raised his head. It seemed that he had relieved the burden of his heart, and when he looked up at this moment, his face instantly became much older.
The breath is depressed and crumbling!
The old man looked at the little boy lovingly, held his hand tightly, and finally admonished: "Listen to the words of the eldest brother, work hard to grow, even if you fight with the sky, you must let the clan exist for a long time...... In the future, you will treat your eldest brother as your dearest, understand?"
"Yes, I remember. The little boy said yes, and the whole person couldn't cry.
The old man nodded reassuringly, then smiled, pointed at the little boy's eyebrows, and a faint ray of light penetrated into the little boy's eyebrows, only to hear the old man say softly and solemnly: "From today on, you will be the patriarch of this branch of my Inspiration Clan!"
With that, the old man closed his eyes permanently, and a wisp of spirit burrowed into the little boy's body. Then his entire body began to blur, until it blurred, until it became transparent, until it dissipated.
"Grandpa......" The little boy's helpless cry could not save the old man, and the empty village resounded with a loud cry, sad and heart-wrenching.
"Old man......" Duan Qianlang stretched out his hand, trying to grab something, only to feel the air passing through his fingers, but he couldn't catch anything.
Seeing a person disappear from front of him, his form and spirit were destroyed, which touched Duan Qianlang a lot, and made him feel a strong sense of powerlessness in his heart.
Maybe one day, I will encounter such a situation, and at that time, what should I do?
Feeling the strange aura left in the air after the old man died, Duan Qianlang slowly clenched his fists, and secretly warned himself in his heart that he must redouble his efforts and cultivate hard, so that he can be more active when his life is in danger.
After grief, we always have to face reality.
Just as Duan Qianlang was about to erect a grave for the old man, the little boy stopped him and said, "The Inspiration Clan has been cursed by the 'Heavens', and they can't keep anything after they die. ”
Duan Qianlang had mixed feelings in his heart, what kind of taboo did this inspiration clan commit, even God had to curse it?
Looking at the lonely and poor little boy, Duan Qianlang thought of his situation again. Now he is uprooted from his homeland, unable to see his parents, and in the same situation as this little boy, he has become an orphan.
"Xiao Zi, what's your full name?" Duan Qianlang touched the little boy's head, but now it's good, he still doesn't understand his own affairs, but there is an extra oil bottle.
Xiao Zi raised his head and said obediently: "Big brother, my name is Bo Zi." ”
"Huh?" Duan Qianlang muttered, but it was a strange name.
"Big brother, why are you here?"
So, Duan Qianlang said the purpose of his coming here.
"It turned out to be the 'Hundred Villages Certificate', I know this thing. He turned around and took a tattered flag on the altar, and said, "I'm left in Shiyan Village, and my eldest brother can drop a drop of blood on this flag, and you will be a person from Shiyan Village in the future." ”
"Shiyan Village?" Duan Qianlang looked around, looked at the dilapidated houses around him, sighed, and said, "Is this my second hometown?"
With that, he snapped his finger and dripped a drop of blood. A faint halo of light flashed across the flag, absorbing the blood.
"Alright. He put away the flag and said to Duan Qianlang: "Big brother, there's nothing here, I'll take you to the central market town." Once there, as long as you pass the test, you can go to Baili City. ”
"Hmm!" Duan Qianlang just turned around, but he felt the corner of his clothes being pulled by Bozi, he turned his head to look, and Bozi said a little shyly: "Big brother, my leg is broken, can you hug me?"
Syllable!
Duan Qianlang slapped his forehead, and then it suddenly dawned on him, from beginning to end, Bo Zi sat here and didn't move, it turned out that his legs were injured and he couldn't stand up at all.
For no reason, Duan Qianlang walked up and hugged Bo Zi tightly, and said softly: "Xiao Zi, I was negligent." ”
"Big brother, you're so nice!" said Bo Zi hugged Duan Qianlang's neck.
Duan Qianlang hugged Bozi to the back of the wind wolf, and instructed the wind wolf to give him a good look.
As the soul thoughts fluctuated, Duan Qianlang summoned another wind wolf, then rode on it, and said to him, "Let's go!"
Bozi cheered, riding such a demon beast for the first time, which made him a little surprised.
Just looking back at the village, his eyes welled up with tears again. This is the place where he was born and raised, although it is barren and desolate, he grew up here, and it is inevitable that there will be some reluctance.
The speed of the wind wolf was very fast, but after a while, he could no longer see the shadow of the village, and then he turned around, drooping his head, with a look of loss on his small face.
Duan Qianlang sighed in his heart, took out some food from the storage bag, handed it to Bo Zi, and said, "Xiao Zi, eat some shortbread." ”
After all, he was a child, and when he smelled the fragrance of food, he immediately diverted his attention, and seemed to be hungry, and after nodding at Duan Qianlang, he picked up the shortbread and ate it in a big gulp, and said vaguely from time to time: "It's so fragrant...... Delicious......"
After eating three shortbreads in a row, Bo Zi felt much better about his hunger, and Duan Qianlang gave him a gourd filled with water and let him drink some water.
The hunger pangs were swept away, and Bo Zi's complexion became much better, and he said to Duan Qianlang, "Big brother, this should be your summoned beast, right?"
"yes, I don't think you know a lot. Duan Qianlang said with a smile.
"That's what my grandfather told me. A hint of sadness flashed on his face, and after a pause, he said, "Big brother, can you let me sense your summoning space?"
Duan Qianlang was slightly stunned, and then thought of Bo Zi's special ability, and immediately nodded in response, and then mobilized his soul power and slowly released it.
Bozi sat on the wind wolf, closed his eyes, and said something in his mouth, like a little magic stick.
Seven or eight days passed, and the two didn't know how many roads they had walked and how many mountains they had climbed, and then they saw a rugged and winding mountain road appear in front of them.
And in these days, Duan Qianlang had also given the magical mud on his body to Bozi, and he had felt the strange power from this mud, so he also thought that if this kind of mud was effective for Bozi, then he would be able to solve a lot of problems.
It's just that the result made him very disappointed, there was no special change after taking the mud, and it was still the same as before, so he could only blame the magic mud for the effect.
Of course, Duan Qianlang didn't know that it wasn't that the magical mud effect was not good, on the contrary, this kind of mud had a magical anti-heaven effect, but as an inspired person, he had been cursed by heaven and earth, and the magical mud was useless to him.
When he walked down the mountain road, Duan Qianlang saw a layer of solemnity on his little face.
Duan Qianlang thought he was unwell, and hurriedly asked, "Xiaozi, what's wrong?"
"Big brother, look there. Bozi pointed forward and said, "After getting off this mountain road, we will see a canyon, and if you want to enter the canyon, there will be some trouble." ”
"What's the trouble?" For unfamiliar situations, Duan Qianlang naturally wanted to know more about them, so that he would not be too passive.
"On both sides of that canyon, there are two villages, one is called 'Shanglong Village' and the other is called 'Xialong Village'. If the villagers in a radius of ten miles and eight towns want to get to the central market town, they must pass through this canyon. And the people of these two villages, who depend on the canyon to survive, set up cards at the exit of the canyon to collect money. ”
He paused, and then said, "Grandpa is dead, our village is too poor, so there is no money, I only came here once." ”
"Want money?" Duan Qianlang looked into the distance and said, "If you want money, it's easy to do." ”
Bo Zi still looked a little worried, and said: "Grandpa said, those two villages are more greedy, and there are a few stronger ones, and ordinary people don't dare to mess with them." Last time, my grandfather gave them all his savings, and said a lot of good things, and listened to a lot of ugly things from them, so he let us go, which really made me angry. ”
Looking at the angry look of his pouting mouth, a cold color flashed in Duan Qianlang's eyes, and he said: "Xiaozi, don't worry, if they don't know each other, no one will block the road in this canyon to collect money in the future." ”
"Oh!" nodded as if he didn't understand.
Duan Qianlang said: "By the way, Xiao Zi, you said that you sensed my summoning space, did you find anything?"
Bo Zi scratched his head embarrassedly, and said, "Big brother, there's something in your summoning space that's amazing, I can only sense a little bit, but I haven't seen you use it, so it's hard to say." ”
"It's okay, take your time, I think you'll see how I use it soon. Duan Qianlang knew that he was talking about the Heavenly Divine Diagram. He smiled slightly, rubbed his little head, and the two of them continued on their way.
As the field of vision became wider and wider, the mountains behind him gradually receded, and Duan Qianlang finally saw a long canyon in front of him, surrounded by towering cliffs on both sides. If there is a master guarding there, it really has the momentum of "one man is the key, and ten thousand people are not open".
Gradually approaching the entrance of the canyon, Duan Qianlang observed carefully, and there were several men standing around the entrance, obviously the people who specially guarded the entrance. Others are paying money to pass the border, and some seem to be taking out things that cannot satisfy the card keepers, so they will not be allowed to go.
Feeling a little wetness coming from the palm of his hand, Duan Qianlang turned his head to look at Bo Zi, and found that he had a look of shock, so he couldn't help but grab his hand, handed him a reassuring look, and said, "Don't be afraid, let's go over." ”
For Duan Qianlang, this world is very strange to him. There are no relatives here, and there is no concern for him. If it weren't for the appearance of Bozi, maybe he would still be alone at this moment.
So, he told himself that if anyone dared to bare his teeth at him, if he could beat him, he would treat him with an iron fist. If he can't beat it, he will definitely get it back later.
As the saying goes, "If people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, but if people offend me, I will commit them a hundred times over." This is the principle and the bottom line!
When he came to the checkpoint, the person in charge of collecting the money looked up at Duan Qianlang and Bo Zi, and said, "Pass the level twice, and hand over ten low-grade spars." ”
"Ten?" Before Duan Qianlang could speak, he exclaimed in surprise and said to the man: "Last time, we were also two people, but we only need two low-grade spars!"
The man said impatiently: "Just pass, but just go around the 100,000 mountains." ”
Bo Zi was about to say something, but was stopped by Duan Qianlang, he took out ten spars, and said, "Let's pass." ”
When the man saw the spar, he immediately put on a greedy face, and while collecting the spar, he said, "It's about the same." ”
"Can you let it go?" Duan Qianlang said.
"Release?" the man sneered, pointed to the wind wolf that Duan Qianlang and Bozi were riding, and said, "Just now, it was just your passing money, as well as your mount, you have to give money." ”
"The mount is our own, why do we need to take money?" shouted Bozzi, dissatisfied.
"Little one, this is not the place for you to shout. The man glared at him, full of a strong sense of threat, and looked at Duan Qianlang again and said, "Just pass, but just go around the 100,000 mountains, but the money will not be returned!"
"Okay, how much?" Duan Qianlang didn't refute, he wanted to see what tricks these people could play.
Seeing Duan Qianlang's generous move, the man seemed to regard him as a wronged leader, he just glanced at the two wind wolves casually, and said, "Judging from the quality of your mount, if you want to cross the canyon, it takes ten ...... Twenty low-grade spars, a total of forty, please pay. ”
Obvious blackmail!
"Okay, I'll give. Duan Qianlang was about to take out the money, but the next man grabbed him and said, "Big brother, they are making a bad deal!"
"Xiaozi, it's okay. Duan Qianlang smiled slightly and patted the back of his hand.
Forty low-grade spars were thrown on the table with a "bang", emitting a dazzling light that attracted many pairs of eyes.
"This person is stupid, he usually passes a level, that is, a few spars, but he has been blackmailed so much by these wicked people. ”
"You know what, people are called wealthy, if I have so much money, I won't care about this little money. ”
There was a burst of discussion around them, and those who guarded the checkpoint also looked here, their eyes exuding a greedy look, as if they believed that Duan Qianlang was a fat sheep.
The person who collected the money didn't seem to expect Duan Qianlang to be so crisp, and when he saw the spar on the table, he took a breath and hurriedly put it all away.
"Is it okay?" Duan Qianlang asked again.
"It's okay to pass. The man's eyes rolled and he said, "But we have a new rule here, that is, those who want to pass the customs must buy something here." Don't worry, these things of ours will always be useful on your journey, you can drink water when you are thirsty, you can eat dry food when you are hungry, you can have everything!"
Bozi was very angry and said, "There has never been such a rule!"
The man glared at Bozi again, and said word by word: "I said, just pass, but just go around the 100,000 mountains!"
"Forget it, I don't need it. Duan Qianlang directly refused.
The man smiled lightly and said, "I guess Your Excellency didn't understand, what I said was that I had to buy it." ”
Overlord rules!
Duan Qianlang's heart was already full of anger, but he still smiled and said, "Then tell me how to buy it?"
"Well said. The man immediately brought over a jar of water, a few hard buns like stones, and said, "A jar of water has twenty lower-grade spars, and one steamed bun has ten lower-grade spars, please pay!"
Duan Qianlang glanced at those things and said, "What if I don't hand them over?"
That person seemed to feel a glimmer of danger in Duan Qianlang's eyes, but there were several innate sixth-order masters who were guarding the level, and they were suddenly full of confidence. He rubbed his hands and said, "There's no way, you can't cross the road, and you can't return the money." ”
Duan Qianlang looked at the person steadily, making him feel a little furious in his heart, only to hear Duan Qianlang ask: "I want to know, when was this rule set?
"Where is so much nonsense!" But before the person who collected the money spoke, there was a cheer behind him, and a sturdy man walked over, looking at Duan Qianlang with a fierce look and said: "This rule is set now, there is a saying, 'I planted this tree, I opened this mountain, if you want to cross this road, leave and buy road money'." If you pass, you'll pay for it, but where did you come from, go back!"
"Okay, very good!" Duan Qianlang burst out with murderous wit, and said: "There is a repeat and a second in everything, not a repeat and a fourth, I have endured you a few times, but it does not mean that we are easy to bully." Since you are greedy, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Bang!
The man glared angrily and shouted, "Boy, what did you say?"
Duan Qianlang's pupils shrank, and he said, "I said, if you eat mine, you will spit it out, and if you take mine, give it back to me!"
"Xiaozi, you have to see it clearly. After that, Duan Qianlang glanced at the people surrounding him and said, "Now, I pronounce your sentence to death!"
Airplanes!
As soon as the words fell, Duan Qianlang's whole person's momentum changed greatly, like a docile kitten turning into a tiger descending from the mountain, and a fierce aura swept out of his body, so shocked that the person opposite took a step back.
Feeling the terrifying aura on Duan Qianlang's body, the man's eyes flashed with horror and doubt, and he said secretly: "How can a congenital sixth-order monk have such a terrifying momentum?"
However, Duan Qianlang naturally didn't have the heart to explain his question to him. Seeing those few people bravely besieging them, Duan Qianlang sneered and shouted, "Fight, my partners!"
Suddenly, the aura of savage and brutality filled the audience, and the two wind wolves ridden by Duan Qianlang and Bo Zi took the lead in releasing the bloodthirsty and fierce momentum in their bodies, their eyes exuding a fierce light, revealing their sharp fangs, and they were ready to attack.
A bunch of garbage, actually blackmailing him, it's really impatient to live!
