Chapter Seventy-Two: Emperor Jiuyuan
I don't know where it started, where it came from, a group of iron horsemen annihilated the village like a torrent of steel, grandparents died, but Jiu Yao was far from being sad as expected.
Just struggling to pull out their broken corpses, so hungry...... Trapped in the basement, I haven't eaten for a long time, if my former self wouldn't care about humanity and morality, only if I had food to live, but now I ......
Never mind......
Xiao Jiuyao in front of the two small dirt bags was lying there with a faint breath, anyway, it was enough, there was no resentment against anyone, and there was no sense of sadness, maybe he should have died in the garbage heap, and he had such a carefree time until now......
The autumn wind rose, and the trees on the side fell a little yellow, and a few crows with scarlet eyes hovered in the sky, and the ruins of the whole village exuded an indescribable sense of desolation.
I'm so hungry...... If only I could eat enough and die, moldy steamed buns will do, grandpa said that after people die, there will be a guide to take them to another world, I don't know if the guide will bring me something to eat......
"Uh... Step on... Kick..."
Is it the guide?
"Uh... For... Whew..."
Am I dead?
"Alas......" A sigh came, and there seemed to be some pity at the same time...... Excited? Delighted?
An old man who was in a mess threw down the crutches he was holding, and gently picked up the dying Xiao Jiuyao, and a strange energy was gently injected into her body, and the hunger and panic were intertwined for a long time, and Jiu Yao could no longer support it at this time, and fell into a deep sleep.
"Time, life, this emperor has been all over the world all his life, adventures are continuous, luck is against the sky, sensing that the catastrophe is about to start and travel all over the world, looking for heirs for millions of years, today I finally found it, God treats me not thin, treat me not thin! hahahaha......"
............
"It's ...... Is it the other side of the world, it seems to be different......"
The young Jiu Yao's consciousness gradually recovered, and she couldn't help but have some doubts when she looked at the unfamiliar ceiling.
"Child, how do you feel when you wake up. ”
Who is this old man, is he the guide, but how is his eye blind, and one leg is lame.
Jiu Yao looked at the old lame man who pushed the door into the house, and the doubts in her heart became even heavier.
"Grandpa, are you the guide, is this the other side of the world?"
Hearing Xiao Jiuyao's words, he couldn't help but smile, and dragged his crippled half of his leg to the bed with "difficulty".
"I'm not the guide, and I'm not on the other side, kid, you're hungry right now, do you want to eat. ”
When Jiu Yao heard the first half of the sentence, there were still many doubts in her heart, but when she heard the second half of the sentence and saw a big white steamed bun suddenly appearing in the old lame's hand, she couldn't help swallowing her saliva, her stomach gurgling, and all doubts were left behind.
"Kid, do you want to eat? ”
"Hmmm......"
"Then let me ask you a question. ”
"Grandpa, you say it, I'll tell you everything I know. ”
During the whole process, Jiu Yao's eyes never left the big white steamed bun.
The old lame laughed blindly: "I didn't mean that, what I wanted to ask was...... You... Do you want to cultivate?"
"Cultivation?...... What is it. ”
"To cultivate is to embark on a path where you can take control of your own destiny. ”
"Destiny...... If I go down this path, will I be able to eat enough every day? ”
The old lame man was silent, his hand gently touched Jiu Yao's head, and after a moment, he felt relieved.
"Of course, you can eat enough every day, and you don't have to be bullied, and you don't need to be scared...... It's fun. ”
A hint of yearning flashed in Jiu Yao's eyes, she didn't understand what the old lame was talking about, she just knew that cultivation = being able to eat enough, and that was enough.
"Child, let me ask you again, do you want to cultivate now? ”
"Yes!"
"Okay, I'll wait for you outside the door, after you've eaten and bowed, you'll officially become the heir of my Jiuyuan Emperor!"
............
After worshipping this old lame blind teacher, he did not directly teach me how to cultivate, but mixed strange medicine in a hot spring that he conjured, and every day was to soak in the hot spring, exercise my body, hone my will, and I was very fortunate every day, and even kept breaking my hands and feet It was a great luck
Once when I was moving stones, I accidentally knocked off the stones, and the whole right leg was smashed into a blur of flesh and blood, I can't remember how many times I was injured, although this time it was very serious and painful, but I didn't dare to shout out, for fear that the old cripple would hear it and come to teach me a lesson, but my biggest fear still appeared, the old cripple didn't know when he appeared behind me, grabbed me, threw it into the sky, and after a burst of dizziness, I fell into the hot spring full of medicine......
...............
I don't know how long it took, but finally I didn't have to move stones, and now this old cripple began to exercise my body in more strange ways, thunder, lightning, fire, ice...... There's more, and it hurts... It hurts, but he said that this is the foundation of the cultivation path, and he also came here like this, so let me endure it.
After three years, I finally stopped this method of extreme pain refining the body, and these three years are still three years outside, and I heard the old lame fool say that the speed of time here is different from the outside, so I don't know how long it has been here for three years outside......
"Today, I will teach you how to practice swords. ”
............
"Today, I will tell you to wield a knife. ”
............
"Today, I'm going to teach you how to use a gun. ”
............
I have learned a lot of things with the old lame, and I have to learn everything for a long time, longer than the time of refining the body, I am very stupid, and I don't know what the old lame said every time I move with my heart, my heart to the sword, and my weapon is integrated, and so on, anyway, I just practiced and said that he was qualified, rest for a while, and learn another tomorrow.
Not only that, but he also gave me a book called [Jiuyuan Emperor Sutra], and I soaked in the hot spring every night to study and learn......
Gradually, I grew up, although I don't know how old I was, anyway, I was much taller than before, and I understood a lot of the hardship and obscurity in the old lame's mouth.
"Yao'er, how are you learning? ”
The name Jiu Yao was given by the old lame, as for the previous name...... Forgot.
"Hmph, look at the sword!"
has grown up a lot, and Jiu Yao, who is in the prime of her cardamom years, has learned a lot about the old and blind temper.
"Well, yes, you have reached the realm of supernatural transformation, and when you practice all the techniques I taught you to the realm of the unity of heaven and man, knives, guns, swords, and sticks...... Any four of them have reached the realm of initiation, and the Nine Sources Sutra has also been introduced, and I will take you out to travel in all directions. ”
The old lame smiled blindly, very satisfied with Jiu Yao's apprentice.
"Master, you are obviously not blind or lame, why do you keep pretending to be like this, and don't those books say that Baihui is not as good as Yijing, why do you let me learn everything......"
Jiu Yao muttered, threw the sword aside, and flipped out a steamed bun casually...... This time, it's not steamed buns but buns, and it's still minced meat.
"Hahaha, it looks pitiful to do this, maybe others will give me one or two steamed buns to eat when they see them on the road. ”
Jiu Yao glared at him and took a bite of the bun in his hand, this old lame man was laughing at himself when he was a child, thinking all day long about whether he would have steamed buns to eat when he was hungry.
ps: I've been waiting for a long time, asking for collections, asking for recommendations.
