Chapter 920: A Sudden Answer
Bai Tairan looked at the floating water and fish in front of him blankly, how could it be possible for the fish not to rely on the water, and the fish would die if they left the water?
"The kid made a note of it!"
In an instant, Bai Tairan nodded fiercely, although he felt that this meant to be difficult, but at the same time, he knew better in his heart that it would definitely not be easy to become an apprentice of an immortal, and it was expected that he could have this kind of test.
"Hmm. ”
Xu Chen nodded and let Bai Tairan leave.
Looking at Bai Tairan's back after taking over the water and fish with a basin and leaving, Xu Chen groaned, his request did mean to make things difficult for Bai Tairan, but more to get a little inspiration through Bai Tairan.
In this test, the fish is like him Xu Chen, and the water is this world, before he lived in this world, life and death were controlled by heaven and earth, isn't this the fish living in the water, the water is clear, and the fish dies?
Fish can't do without water, and people can't do without this world.
However, now Xu Chen has completed the first step, leaving heaven and earth, and no longer relying on heaven and earth, but he is at a loss for controlling heaven and earth in turn, that is, the path of transcendence.
He has been staying in the backstreets for a long time, and he has seen a lot of ordinary and ordinary days, but he has never felt anything, so he gave Bai Tairan this problem, hoping to get a little inspiration from Bai Tairan.
The days were quiet again.
In fact, everything that happened here was very plain for Xu Chen, whether it was the old man who was dying here, or the mother and daughter of Ji Yue, or Bai Tairan, including some of the things involved behind their backs, Xu Chen could not be touched in any way.
It was as if he were reading a book, calmly watching everything that was happening here, hoping to get some inspiration from the book.
Although he didn't get any inspiration for the time being, Xu Chen was affected by the current ordinary, and his mood calmed down, and he sought detachment in his heart, but he was no longer so eager.
He had a vague feeling that this peace might work for him, and he didn't want to be broken.
In this way, he stayed more firmly and calmed down in this ordinary.
Time goes on and on.
Year after year passed, the child holding the paintbrush had grown taller, and the age had reached the golden age of fifteen or sixteen, and the use of a paintbrush became more and more amazing.
Bai Tairan took care of the fish handed over to him by Xu Chen every day and night, and at the same time, Xiu Wei also broke through to the realm of the Martial King.
And during this period, there were also some uninvited guests to disturb, such as the Dong Mansion forces that had been expelled before, and later appeared several times, but under Bai Tairan's resistance and Qiuqiu's brush, they were finally completely defeated and left.
At the same time, what happened in the backstreet, as well as all kinds of miracles in the backstreet, also attracted the attention of countless people, and there were many rumors outflowing, which completely changed the reputation of the backstreet outside, and it was no longer a deserted place, but a fairy god that everyone feared.
Because of the spread of these rumors, many people even went to the backstreets to worship, and there were also many suffering people who came to pray for blessings.
The young Qiuqiu has a pure heart, with a brush to save the suffering, but whenever there is a request for him to help, from small to cure, big to save lives, a paintbrush is often to catch.
After a long time, the fame deepened, more and more people came, and even the emperor of the king of a country sent people to come, and the emperor himself came to visit him in person after coming into contact with the real miracle.
This undoubtedly intensified the fame and status of the backstreets in the mortal world, and gradually, the backstreets, which were originally regarded as deserted, became holy places, and Qiuqiu, who held a paintbrush, was also called a fairy child by the world, and everyone respected it.
"I've been here for 10 years. ”
Inside the inn, Xu Chen calmly looked at the crowded streets outside, because of the improvement of the reputation of the back street, this place has also changed from the original desolation, and has become prosperous and boiling, with busy traffic and endless flow of people.
Business at his inn has also become hot, and the rooms are full all day long.
Before the backstreets became lively, Xu Chen deliberately hid himself, did not show any miracles, and only blended in the crowd as an ordinary person.
Even in order to prevent outsiders from discovering the abnormality, with the passage of time, he made himself dye the traces of time like ordinary people, with white threads in his hair, and his face became vicissitudes, looking no longer young in his early twenties, but a weathered middle-aged man in his thirties and forties.
As for Qiuqiu, who knew that he was extraordinary, Bai Tairan and the others were also used by him, they couldn't talk about anything strange about him, and no one was allowed to break his peace.
Ten years has changed a lot.
During this period, Xu Chen was completely integrated into this backstreet, and even the detached and lofty mysterious aura at the beginning was gradually worn away by him.
He no longer looks at everything in this backstreet from the perspective of a bystander, but really blends into it, like other shops, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, going in and out of the inn.
"Bang!"
In the tavern on the first floor of the inn, a guest suddenly slapped the table and glared at Xu Chen angrily: "Shopkeeper, what kind of wine are you, it's terrible to drink, is it mixed with water?"
Sometimes there are unceremonious guests looking for trouble.
Xu Chen, who has turned into an ordinary, is no longer as cold and detached as before, but like a real mortal shopkeeper, showing an apologetic smile to the guests, and calling Bai Tairan out to deal with the problem.
"Get the. ”
After some inspection, it was learned that this guest wanted the overlord meal and deliberately made trouble, Bai Tairan, the little second, played his role as a martial king, carried these guests and threw them out, waved the white towel and smiled at Xu Chen and continued to be busy.
The days are like this, and the dull is boring.
"I didn't feel anything for three thousand years before, but now ten years feel a little boring, but the daily life of mortals is in a hurry, if time can be suspended......"
Xu Chen sighed slightly behind the counter about the ordinary experience of the past ten years, just casually speaking, but as if he had a heavenly constitution in his mouth and a law in his mouth, the world in front of him, or all existence, suddenly froze!
"It's ......"
Xu Chen's heart has been calm for more than ten years, and there are suddenly strong ups and downs at this moment!
Everything is still!
This is not the stillness of the space he controlled before, it is not a simple fixation technique, but the true meaning of the whole world has stopped, and the thinking has stopped! Even time has stopped, even the Heavenly Dao has stopped at this moment!
But he Xu Chen still has a mind, and he can even move in this still time!
This is an extremely terrible thing, everything is still, only Xu Chen can move, then he can't change everything!
If you can master this ability, isn't it just mastering the way of heaven?
"Huh!"
In an instant, everything in heaven and earth returned to its original state, and everyone continued all their previous actions as if nothing had happened.
But Xu Chen froze in place as if time stood still.
"So that's the direction?!"
His mood fluctuated, his heart was pleasantly surprised, Rao didn't guess how he guessed, in this ordinary, just by chance, because of his most unconscious sentence, he finally got the answer that he had been searching for for three thousand years in vain.
Everything came so suddenly, even a little absurd, even Xu Chen himself didn't know how to do it.
