Chapter 21 The road to the countryside is long
Sun Yan also heard the discussion around him, and knew that this road was not simple. He looked back at Zhou Jie, who didn't know what was going on on the way home, but just shook his head at him and signaled Sun Yan not to agree.
Sun Yan recalled Zhou Jie's expression at the curtain call last night, and said to Zhou Cun with a heart: "The younger generation is willing to give it a try." ”
Zhou Cun nodded and didn't speak again. He slowly descended to the high platform, raised his hands, and stretched out a silk thread towards each of the four terracotta figurines in the corner of the square. After a while, two rays of light shot out of the eyes of the four statues at the same time, projecting on the stage, forming a teleportation space supported by four pillars of light.
"Little friend, life is like a chess game, there are no regrets in every move, since you have already thought about it, please go on the road."
Sun Yan took a deep breath, and after exhaling heavily, his gaze walked firmly towards the pillar of light space, and disappeared in a flash.
Zhou Cun fiddled with the silk threads, and the terracotta figurines in the corner of the square each raised their hands and pointed at each other, and the four rays of light converged along their fingers into a point of light above the platform.
It is said that in the past, no matter who went to the homecoming, everything that happened inside was absolutely not allowed to be visited by others, even Zhou Cun didn't know what everyone had experienced on the way home, so many inheritors who came in later didn't know what was going on on the homecoming.
However, this time, Zhou Cun seemed to be intending to let everyone see Sun Yan's journey, and the points of light gathered by the four rays of light soon acted like a holographic projection, clearly projecting Sun Yan's figure and the situation inside to the sky above the high platform.
After Sun Yan entered the Light Pillar Gate, he found himself standing at the foot of a towering green mountain, with only a winding mountain road to walk in front of him, and on both sides of him and behind him, there were cliffs ten thousand feet high.
"Wangxiang Road?" Sun Yan saw that there was a line of small characters on the stone monument standing next to the road not far away, so he stepped on the mountain road and approached to take a closer look.
"Seven miles of Wangxiang Road,
One step at a time.
Turning back is not the shore,
Don't hesitate to move quickly. ”
After reading this line, he didn't give a hint, precautions or anything, so he had to step over the stone tablet and continue to walk up the mountain.
As soon as he crossed the stone tablet, Sun Yan found the problem, the cliffs behind him and on both sides seemed to be following him closely, no matter how many steps he walked forward, it was still as far away from him, it seemed that Sun Yan had nowhere to go except the road in front of him.
The mountain road was difficult, as if every step was more difficult, Sun Yan only climbed twenty or thirty steps up before he felt like lead was poured into his legs, and he was about to lose his walk.
He stopped and looked at the mountain, the road was covered by dense forests, and he couldn't see the truth, Sun Yan was a little puzzled, he was now a soul body, and this was not an underworld, his body was all illusions, he had neither muscles nor nerves, how could he feel tired?
Sun Yan couldn't help but pinched his arm, it hurt, he thought for a while, reached out and touched the mezzanine of his belt, and sure enough, a piece of rune paper appeared on his fingertips.
"What's going on?" Sun Yan was puzzled, the world in the pendant was just like his jade talisman in the collection of stones and Jinyue, only the soul body could enter, even if it was much more advanced than the jade talisman here, it would never be possible to bring in tangible substances. The things that can hold people and things are all treasures, and Sun Yan doesn't believe that the puppet sect will have such a thing.
He didn't know that his every move was clearly seen by others, so he directly raised his hand and threw the blank talisman out, and when the talisman paper left his hand, it had already turned into a broken talisman and hit the tree in front of him.
Void Breaking Talismans and Delusion Breaking Talismans are not defilement, evil or exorcism, and a person who understands talismans can draw them. Just as the Hidden Qi Charm and Tracker Charm are the hallmarks of a junior talisman refiner, the Void Breaker Talisman represents a high-level talisman refiner.
The function of the Void Breaking Talisman is to break the illusion, and the role of the Void Breaking Talisman is to remove the disguise, one false and one true, and you can be promoted to a senior talisman refiner if you can refine it. Sun Yan was worried that he was in an illusion, so he played a void breaking talisman to test it, but the people in the square who watched him break into his hometown were not calm.
"I didn't expect this person to be a high-level talisman refiner, and at his age, it's too unbelievable."
"More than that, right? You and I can still see the senior talisman refiners of the living dynasty often, but which senior talisman refiner have you ever seen with this hand? If you take it out, it's an empty talisman, and if you throw it out, it will become a void talisman, and it's hard to say that he's a great talisman master. ”
"A great alchemist in his early twenties? This, how is this possible!? ”
Zhou Jie saw the Jiyin talisman that Sun Yan gave her last night, and at that time Sun Yan told her that she made it herself, Zhou Jie thought that Sun Yan was unwilling to say the way to say that, but now she understands that those two Jiyin are nothing to Sun Yan.
Although Zhou Cun didn't speak, the surprise in his eyes was undisguised. Only Sun Yan was extremely depressed. His spell could be used again, but the Void Breaking Talisman did not explode on the tree, but turned into a cloud of green smoke and dissipated. This is not an illusion, Sun Yan can't think of a way to crack it.
That's the difference between having a master or not. In most cases, it is impossible for a practitioner to be self-taught. In addition to Sun Yan's talent in refining talismans, he relied on the practice methods that Sun Pozi taught him since he was a child to get to where he is today, and it was not until this moment that he realized that he not only had few means against the enemy, but also had no knowledge of some strange things.
He walked mechanically, thinking about these things in his head. Sun Yan realized that what he urgently needed most was not a weapon, but a good exercise. He didn't even know any magical powers, so he went out to sell talismans every week, claiming to be the descendant of the demon slayer.
These thoughts made Sun Yan feel ashamed, how many times did he die last night alone? If it weren't for the stones, he wouldn't even be able to deal with those dolls. I can't beat anyone I meet, I can't recognize anyone who sees it, come and save someone, and let people fiddle with it as much as they want, and he will have to come and suffer if he shows the way.
The more Sun Yan thought about it, the more angry he became, not angry with others, but completely angry with himself, feeling that he had lost people to his family and discredited his ancestors. He plans not to sell talismans in a swaggering manner anymore, and he wants to hurry up and find a technique to improve his strength first.
What was the Sun family like back then? Don't open your mouth, no matter what happens, the price of two taels of gold starts, if it is too expensive, please ask Gao Ming, the Sun family is worth so much. Don't ask if it can be solved, if it is a job that the Sun family can't do, then no second person dares to take it, so it deserves the title of judge in the world.
Sun Yan's face was red and white, and he didn't know how far he could go with his head covered, until he reached the edge of a dilapidated suspension bridge. He subconsciously wanted to lift his feet up the bridge, but found that he couldn't pull his legs at all. Sun Yan looked down and saw that his two feet had already stepped on two deep pit-like footprints on this mountain road at some point.
Sun Yan wondered if he had come here with a mountain on his back, he didn't dare to go on the bridge, and he didn't let him step on this bridge? But there is no way, not to mention that there is a bridge, he has to jump without a bridge, and there is no other way here except to move forward.
Fortunately, although the suspension bridge could be blown apart by a gust of wind, when Sun Yan walked up leisurely, except for being pressed by him, it was not broken. Sun Yan now has to take every step before he can open his legs, although it is already so difficult, a team of wooden puppets still walked up from the opposite side of the bridge, Sun Yan sighed secretly, it seems that this way home is really not easy to walk.
When the wooden man reached the middle of the bridge, he stopped moving forward, and stood in two lines, as if waiting for Sun Yan to pass. Sun Yan thought about countermeasures as he walked, he had just seen that the two jade talismans were still on his belt, but Shi and Jinyue did not follow up, so he could only harden himself.
Sun Yan walked to him, but the two rows of wooden people still didn't move, so Sun Yan was lucky and wanted to pass through them. As soon as he took a step, the wooden man on the left suddenly raised his arm to block the way, and the right side kicked him in the crook of the leg at the same time, Sun Yan fell to his knees, and his head was sent right in front of the arm of the puppet on the left, and he was knocked out by an arm.
Sun Yan's body was heavy, not to mention resisting, he didn't even have a chance to dodge, he was aggrieved. tried three times in a row, but Sun Yan still didn't even go past the two wooden figures in the first row, but he was beaten very lightly.
"Alas! Here, you need to coordinate your hands and feet to control the puppet, and then take advantage of the momentary stagnation of the wooden man to pass through, and the further back the wooden man is, the faster the speed of the wooden man. This Sun Yan doesn't know how to puppetry, and he can't even get past the first row, so it seems that he is going to stop here. ”
The onlookers in the square shook their heads one after another, feeling sorry for Sun Yan. After all, he didn't know how to manipulate, and it was almost impossible to break through the wooden human formation under that kind of gravity.
Seeing that Sun Yan was beaten out again and again, and got up again and again, everyone gradually stopped talking. When they can't get across, they just have to jump off the bridge and give up, but Sun Yan's indomitable energy has made the inheritors of the past generations admire. Even some young people began to cheer for Sun Yan in their hearts.
Sun Yan also knew that this was not a way, but did he have any other way? If...... Sun Yan was stunned, and after coming back to his senses, he immediately went to check his upper dantian.
"It's really there! The Tree of Consciousness has really come in. ”
Because Sun Yan has just learned to use his divine thoughts, he has not yet formed the habit of using them anytime and anywhere. And he knew that the soul had spiritual consciousness, and it was absolutely impossible to have divine thoughts, otherwise the previous owner of the Divine Tree would not have left it, so he never paid attention to it.
Although Sun Yan couldn't understand how the Divine Tree could come here with him, it didn't matter, he had already seen a small stone tablet at the end of the suspension bridge, with a "two" written on it, and it seemed that the first mile was almost over.
It's easy to do with your thoughts. Sun Yan no longer provoked the wooden man, but began to practice the Divine Mind Transference again. He had the experience of moving cups, and he had mastered the principles and know-how of them, and he was soon adept at lifting and lowering his legs, lifting and lowering, completely ignoring the gravitational suppression here.
That's right, what Sun Yan wants to control with his divine thoughts this time is his own body. There is nothing more familiar with one's body than a person, so in the experiment, it is much easier to control oneself than to control a cup, and Sun Yan even suspects that when his divine mind is raised by a few more levels, he can make himself fly.
At this moment, the audience in the square was completely shocked.
"Look, what is he going to do? He walks on the handrail of the drawbridge? I didn't pay attention just now, how did he get there? ”
"He wants to walk over the rope, oh my God!"
Sun Yan was indeed walking on the handrail. He was gifted and intelligent, and his understanding of divine thoughts had reached a nuanced level, except that his knees and elbow joints could not be bent, and his movements seemed a little strange, he did not walk slowly, and by the time the wooden man reacted, he had already jumped over the bridge and continued to walk up the mountain.
"This, this ......"
"Alas, we have lost sight, although he is not from our clan, he must be the top master of which branch. Don't you see? He's made himself a puppet. ”
"That's right, they weren't beaten in vain just now, it should be a secret method, he secretly learned the method of ignoring the heavy pressure of the wooden man."
All kinds of discussions came one after another, and even the old man who brought Sun Yan over before couldn't help but come up to the stage and approached Zhou Cun and said, "Father, this is too unbelievable. ”
Zhou Cun smiled, but didn't answer, not knowing what he was thinking.
