Chapter 21 I want to go to Luoyang, the capital of God
Three years later, Shi San was fourteen years old, while Yang Yu was thirteen years old, and both children had grown a lot taller, and their bodies were also very strong, because those wild grains and potato stalks similar to yellow essence in the valley could not provide all the food sources for the four people, so the hunt still had to continue!
Dozens of miles away from the valley, there are very few large beasts, some foxes and wolves are not counted, there are not many bears and wild boars, but there are still some hares, pheasants, muntjac and deer, so Yang Yu will go hunting with Shi San!
The servant elder warned them not to run too far, because Nanping Mountain is a barrier, and there will definitely be large beasts and unknown dangers in the vast primeval forest outside, but Yang Yu and Shi San didn't listen to it at all, in their opinion, the prey is too small to eat for long! The big wild boar last time, the dried meat was gone after eating it for less than a month.
So as soon as the two of them go out, they will go to find large beasts, although nine times out of ten will fail, but as long as they meet once, the two of them will cooperate to hunt it, in the past three years, Yang Yu's refining body in that black sand pile has achieved very good results, his body is getting harder and harder, and his strength is getting bigger and bigger, and his whole body is like being wrapped in several layers of thick cowhide!
Shi San is as brave as ever, both of them are rough and thick-skinned, and ordinary large beasts really can't hurt them, unless it is a fierce beast like a lion tiger, but how can there be such a fierce beast in Nanping Mountain, so the two of them have a lot of harvest every time they cooperate with hunting.
The days in the valley basin passed calmly and peacefully, Yang Yu had already read the collection of books of the old men of the Nine Crows in the cave, in his opinion, the things that the old man paid attention to were all related to the Tao, but many of the lonely books were very difficult to understand, not only the words were ridiculous, but also the meaning in them was to discuss the way of heaven and other philosophical things, which Yang Yu's age could not understand at all.
The book "A Preliminary Study of Taixuan Induction" is the book that Yang Yu has read the most, he often sits alone outside the cave and meditates and exhales against the sky and the night sky, but there is no sense of the true spiritual vitality between heaven and earth, which also makes him very disappointed.
Thinking of what the old man said, Yang Yu suddenly became very interested in that Guanglin School and Xuantian Sect, he felt that if he had the opportunity, he must go there, if he could master the method of cultivation through the study of that Guanglin Academy, wouldn't he be able to cultivate the Tao?
In fact, Yang Yu himself knew that this idea was a bit unrealistic, first of all, he was a person who was not physically enlightened, this was like an old man, although he wanted a person like the old man to be powerful, but he couldn't cultivate the Tao, and then he actually felt that even if he was like the old man of the Nine Crows, why did he die in the end? Why did that giant appear in the sky to attack the old man of the Nine Crows?
So Yang Yu has been pondering this matter, the old man of the Nine Crows can't escape death in the end, and the cultivator is nothing more than this, but he promised his dead parents that he must live, and live well, he seems to be able to cultivate the Tao will make his life better, so he is still a little concerned about the matter of cultivation!
However, this kind of concern was gradually replaced by the way of refining the body of the black sand pile, because this benefit was obvious, Yang Yu could feel that after exercising in the black sand pile every day, he would increase a lot of strength, and the flexibility and endurance of the body were getting stronger and stronger.
In the autumn of this year, Shi San's father, Shi Yan, died suddenly, and this sturdy man left suddenly, without any warning before, and died in bed!
The old man said that Shi Yan's body was poisoned by miasma in the early years, and his internal organs had failed, and the relatives around him had also left one after another, and the sadness had been lingering in his heart, sad and sad, which aggravated the overdraft of his longevity!
In fact, Shi San's father was very hard working in the early years, and the perennial hunting was also very harmful to the body, and now his life is stable, although sometimes he has to face hunger, but watching Shi San grow up slowly, not only learned the skills of hunting, but also became stronger and stronger, Shi Yan also felt that he could rest assured!
His father died, he was not yet fifty years old, Shi San didn't say a word, and buried his father next to the graves of his mother and two brothers outside the valley, Shi San, who didn't like to talk, was even more silent, Yang Yu was very worried about him and stayed with him.
Shi San didn't talk much, he followed his father together, although his father was very strict with him, but it was all for his good, sometimes he was grumpy and punched him, he didn't feel pain, and the father and son didn't talk for a long time when they got along, and after a long time, Shi San would feel like he couldn't speak.
Later, when I met Yang Yu, he talked more, and some things could only be said to Yang Yu, and he couldn't say anything to his father! But Shi San's love for his father was real, and the loss of his father made him feel very depressed and uncomfortable, but fortunately, he had Guma with him, which made him feel much better!
Shi San told Yang Yu a lot of things about himself and his father, and said that his father had done for him, and tears finally flashed in the corners of his eyes, this was the first time Yang Yu saw Shi San crying!
Although Shi San has always insisted on living in the wooden house, the old man still asked Yang Yu to call him to live in the cave, there is more rain between spring and summer and autumn, Shi San's wooden house can't stop the leaking rain at all, in contrast, the cave is drier and warmer.
When the old man saw the death of Shi San's father Shi Yan with his own eyes, he suddenly felt very big, and after living for more than two hundred years, he finally touched the corner of the clothes of death and smelled it, so the old man would sit at the entrance of the cave many times and reminisce, recall what he had experienced, and recall the glorious deeds of his master.
The old man would sometimes call Yang Yu and Shi San to them and say to them, "You two must love each other when you grow up and be brothers forever!"
Yang Yu said: "Don't worry, Shi San and I will always be brothers!"
Shi San didn't speak, just nodded heavily.
Half a year later, in the spring of this year, Yang Yu was fourteen years old, Shi was thirty-five years old, and the old man finally fell on the bed.
Yang Yu tearfully agreed, the old man is his relative, and now the death of the old man reminded him of the grief of the tragic death of his parents, Yang Yu cried!
Yang Yu buried him next to the tomb of the old man of the Nine Crows according to the request of the old man, he stood in front of the old man's tomb for a long time without saying a word, and finally wiped the tears on his face with his sleeves and looked up at the sky!
"Yang Yu!then?" Shi San asked, this was the way he asked, only asking two words.
"I'm going to Luoyang, the capital of God, I'm going to Guanglin Academy!" Yang Yu said.
"Then I'll go with you!" Shi Sandao.
