265. Always Forward (Guaranteed Second Update)
Lin Feng walked out of the house and strolled under the Xuantian Treasure Tree, Kang Nanhua fell three steps behind him and walked aimlessly with him.
"Nanhua doesn't want to invite me to your cave mansion to sit?" Lin Feng looked back and smiled.
Kang Nanhua nodded lightly: "My honor, sect master, please." ”
The two sat down together in Kang Nanhua's cave mansion, Lin Feng looked at Kang Nanhua, and said quietly: "This seat has no intention of exploring other people's privacy, but you give this seat the feeling that you need a listener." ”
Kang Nanhua's expression was a little stunned: "Let the sect master see it." ”
He said softly: "Looking at those children, I remembered some of the past, and my mood was a little unstable. ”
When Lin Feng heard this, his expression became a little more solemn.
Kang Nanhua is now a great monk who has formed a primordial infant, breaking through the difficulties of life and death and the fear of heaven and earth, and his heart and will are extremely stable.
At this moment, he admits that his mood is fluctuating, and it can be seen that his heart knot is very serious, and he has reached the point of a demon in his heart, shaking the original heart of the Dao Law.
Kang Nanhua said slowly: "That was a long time ago, and seventy-one years have passed now. ”
"Seventy-one years, three months and fifteen days, to be exact. ”
Kang Nanhua recalled: "At that time, I was in the late stage of building the foundation and condensed the second-grade Danding, which was the time when I was most energetic. ”
Lin Feng glanced at him when he heard this, the Jin Dan formed by Kang Nanhua was the highest quality Zidan, only the first and second grade Dan Ding had any hope of being formed, and it was not one hundred percent, and if there was a slight difference, he could only get the second-grade Zhu Dan.
Kang Nanhua was not born in a big sect, but inadvertently obtained the Taoist inheritance of the ancient scattered cultivation quicksand Dao people, without the guidance of the master. There are no sect resources, so they all rely on themselves to explore and cultivate.
Especially. The earliest Dao quicksand secret he obtained was only a fragment of the ancient Ganges River sand mantra.
In this case. It is definitely a very rebellious thing for him to condense the second-grade Danding, which can make 99% of the demons and geniuses in the world ashamed of themselves.
Relying on his own talent alone, unless his root bone and comprehension both reached the full value of ten points, it would never be possible.
Touching Lin Feng's gaze, Kang Nanhua seemed to understand his question, and said lightly: "When I first built the spiritual platform, I got an opportunity, otherwise. The Sipin Lingtai may be my destination. ”
"Sure enough, it also needs the cooperation of fortune. Lin Feng nodded, did not speak, fortune was the head, overcoming a huge difficulty on the road of repair, thinking about how high-spirited Kang Nanhua was at that time.
Kang Nanhua's eyes once again showed a look of pain, looking at the top of the cave, his gaze was not focused: "Although the second-grade Danding has been condensed, my cultivation has encountered a bottleneck. I can't get married for a long time, and Jindan Avenue seems to be far away from me. ”
For Yeluzi monks who did not have the guidance of the master and the support of the sect, the breakthrough of the Great Realm was the most difficult. It's all up to you to figure it out and comprehend.
"I didn't think it would have much effect, so I traveled and tried to break through the barrier of life and death. Kang Nanhua said slowly: "Later, I walked in the mountains. Arrived at a small mountain village. ”
"Although the living conditions are hard, the people in the village are hospitable. The welcome received me. There, young and old. Every day, one had to climb among the rocks to collect an elixir and sell it to people outside the mountain in exchange for the necessary necessities of life. ”
In Kang Nanhua's description, Lin Feng learned that those mountain rocks were extremely steep.
For these cultivators, of course, it is nothing, not to mention the Jindan period and the foundation building period, even if they are monks in the Qi cultivation period, as long as there is a cultivation of the third or fourth level of Qi cultivation, they can also walk on the ground.
But for ordinary people, those mountains and rocks are absolutely dangerous, no matter how skilled they are, no matter how well they prepare their tools, they are like dancing on the tip of a knife.
It is not uncommon for villagers to fall off a cliff and leave their families forever because of collecting medicines, but for the villagers in the mountain villages, this is their most valuable source of income.
"It's not that they're not afraid of death, but the pressure of survival, the desire to survive, overrides the fear of death and danger. Kang Nanhua shook his head slightly: "Maybe there are some lucks?"
Lin Feng said lightly: "That's it, human beings can develop so far, you and I cultivate, isn't it the same way?"
Kang Nanhua nodded and said: "Yes, watching them walk between life and death at that time touched me a lot, I am not afraid that the sect master will laugh, before that, although I was concentrating on the Dao Fa, but for this kind of thing, I had very little contact, which should also be the primary reason why I encountered a bottleneck." ”
There was a look of remembrance in his eyes, and the pain gradually dissipated, and a rare warm and joyful mood emerged.
"I wanted to feel the fear and courage of the villagers about life and death, so I stayed there for a long time, and tried to teach them some qi practice methods, although most of them were not qualified enough to practice, but at least it could have the effect of strengthening their bodies and giving them more capital to survive in the mountains and forests. ”
Kang Nanhua said: "As for myself, I gave up all my mana cultivation to not use it all, and learned from the mountain people to climb those cliffs to collect medicine, and there were a few times when I really thought I was going to die." ”
Lin Feng smiled slightly, and saw a smile on Kang Nanhua's face: "The people in the village basically don't have the talent to learn the Dao Fa, and the method of qi cultivation I teach them can only be used to nourish the body's qi and blood." ”
"There is only a seven-year-old little girl, and the girls in the small mountain village have no big names, and the people in the village call her Mao Ya, Mao Ya not only has a very fast understanding of the Tao, but also has very good root bone conditions. ”
Lin Feng's heart moved slightly, and he sighed secretly: "It seems that this little girl is where Kang Nanhua's heart knot is." ”
Sure enough, speaking of this, Kang Nanhua's mood fell again: "I was in the village at the time, I lived in Mao Ya's house, Mao Ya's father and mother died at an early age, and she still lived strongly, and she went to the cliff to collect medicine, and she taught me by hand." ”
"At that time, we were also teachers and friends, I taught her the Tao, and she instructed me to climb the steep cliffs without using mana, and we got along for a year. ”
Lin Feng originally wanted to ridicule Kang Nanhua Lori or something, but look at Kang Nanhua's mood at the moment. Or gave up on this plan.
What's more, he can also see. The relationship between Kang Nanhua and that little girl is a simple year-end friendship. Or it's not even a year-end friend, it's just an adult's love for children.
"What happened after that?" Lin Feng asked quietly.
"After that?" Kang Nanhua's face became even darker, and he said slowly: "One day after that, Mao Ya and I came back from collecting medicine, but we saw that the village was in a mess, and there were bandits looting. ”
"The leader of those bandits is a cultivator in the Qi cultivation period, and he left a message for the medicine collected in the mountain village in the future. They are to be given to them free of charge, and if they do not obey, they will slaughter the village. ”
Kang Nanhua said: "After I heard this, without saying a word, I went to find the lair of the bandits. ”
The pain in his eyes became heavier and heavier: "Mao Ya asked me if there would be anything wrong in the village, and she said that she was very scared. ”
"I said to her, "If it's all right, you'll be all right." I will definitely protect you. ”
Lin Feng's pupils shrank slightly, staring at Kang Nanhua, with his understanding of Kang Nanhua, this was equivalent to Kang Nanhua's promise to Mao Ya.
For Kang Nanhua. Commitment and trustworthiness are his life principles, the bottom line that cannot be shaken and crossed.
And this. It is often the source of his pain.
Sure enough, Kang Nanhua continued: "I found that gang of bandits. It was found that they had done far more than one or two evil deeds, and that murder and plunder were completely commonplace. So he sent them where they needed to go. ”
"I was afraid that they would take revenge on the villagers in the future, so I carefully checked to make sure that there were no fish that slipped through the net, and then I returned to the mountain village with ease. ”
Speaking of this, Kang Nanhua suddenly fell silent.
Lin Feng didn't speak, he sat opposite Kang Nanhua, silently opposite him, and after a long time, Kang Nanhua's faint voice sounded in the cave, without the slightest emotion, with a kind of numbness that was more sad than dead.
"The village was ruined, everyone was dead, Mao Ya was dead, I looked at her wide eyes, and I could even see hope in them, and I knew that the hope was me, but in the end, I let her down. ”
The cave fell silent again, and I couldn't even hear the sound of breathing.
Lin Feng was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "This should be an accident, the people who slaughtered the village, and the gang of bandits you went to find trouble, are not all the way at all, and I am afraid there is no connection between the two sides." ”
Kang Nanhua's clay body, finally moved, and nodded slowly: "Yes, I think so too." ”
Although the person moved, Lin Feng didn't feel the slightest anger from Kang Nanhua, and there was only his empty voice in the cave: "But whether it matters or not, the final result is the same, Mao Ya is dead, and the people in the village are dead." ”
"And I don't even know who the other party is, and I can't avenge everyone. Kang Nanhua closed his eyes again: "This person, as well as Zhang Lie, are all my demons." ”
Lin Feng looked at Kang Nanhua and sighed, he believed that the murder of Mao Ya and others, and Zhang Lie's blood sacrifice for everyone in Gale Wind, may be the only two times in Kang Nanhua's life that he made a promise to others, but in the end he failed to do it.
It's no wonder that when the Hundred Herbs Sect saw Kang Nanhua again, he would find that he was much more depressed.
Come to think of it, after what happened to Mao Ya and others, he must have made up his mind in his heart, and it was the first and last time at that time, and it was the only time.
But the next Gale Blood Sacrifice incident not only revealed his past scars, but also shook Kang Nanhua's entire belief.
Fortunately, this time, the identity of the target Zhang Lie is very clear, and the anger and hatred give Kang Nanhua a clear psychological sustenance, otherwise Lin Feng is very suspicious, not only will he not be able to succeed in getting married, but he will even regress in his cultivation.
In the eyes of some people, Kang Nanhua may have made a fuss and inexplicably put pressure on his back that did not belong to him.
But people are different from others, everyone has their own path to take, their own beliefs, their own bottom line, and their own ideas that are not understood by others.
Lin Feng stood up, walked to Kang Nanhua's side, and patted him lightly on the shoulder: "This seat will not tell you any nonsense about looking forward, and it is okay to keep your eyes on the past, but don't rest on your laurels and stop." ”
"Even if you walk backwards, look at the past, and always move forward under your feet, this is to prevent the regrets of the past from repeating itself, this simple truth, I believe you understand. ”
Kang Nanhua was silent for a moment, nodded slowly, and also stood up: "I understand, I disturbed the sect master today." ”
Lin Feng smiled and shook his head, suddenly his heart moved slightly, and he couldn't help laughing at himself: "What's the matter today?
Bidding farewell to Kang Nanhua, Lin Feng left the cave mansion and re-entered the Xuantian Celestial Light Cave Heaven, where Zhu Yi was staring blankly at the void above his head. (To be continued......)
