Chapter 5: The Deserted Village
Jiang Chen, who lost consciousness, did not know the changes of the years, and did not know the mountains and rivers.
Jiang Chen's consciousness was confused, as if he had experienced one reincarnation after another, he wanted to act, and he wanted to open his eyes, but everything was in vain, just like a newborn baby, watching his own growth process from the most primitive state.
A month later, Jiang Chen finally opened his eyes, the blood-colored cocoon had long since disappeared, and what appeared in front of Jiang Chen's eyes was a strange environment.
The quaint house is full of traces of time, the sun shines through the windows and is extraordinarily warm, and the house is quiet and clean, without dust.
Jiang Chen pushed open the door and looked at a big peach blossom tree in the courtyard, with many branches, intoxicating peach blossoms swaying in the wind, the breeze blowing, and the unique fragrance of peach blossoms coming to the wind, which made people feel refreshed.
The blooming peach blossoms are like pieces of rouge, rendering the rich spring mountains and rivers, and like the clouds on the horizon, reflecting the earth full of vitality.
Outside the courtyard is a flowing stream, the stream is crystal clear, the water flows very quietly, very randomly, and the valley in the distance is set up by a rainbow, which is a fairyland on earth.
"Where am I?" Jiang Chen thought he was going to die, he remembered that he was attacked by Ning Xiao and fell into the blood pool, Jiang Chen had personally tested the high temperature of the blood pool. But in the blink of an eye, things are wrong, and he actually appeared in such a strange place.
"I'll make you pay for it......"
"Young man, you're awake!" Just when Jiang Chen was confused, an incomprehensible word interrupted Jiang Chen.
Looking at him was a gray-haired old man and a white-haired old woman, carrying a basket full of mushrooms in their hands, but under the pale hair there were hidden energetic eyes, and their eyes were full of vicissitudes.
But Jiang Chen couldn't understand their words at all, so he had to not answer and nodded.
The old woman's cloudy eyes exuded coolness, and she didn't say much after glancing at Jiang Chen.
Two months later......
Jiang Chen miraculously found that his body had also changed, and he had actually become a fourteen-year-old boy, with white and smooth skin just like a girl, but fortunately, his face did not change into other people.
Handsome appearance, but what made Jiang Chen almost mad was that there were two very small horns on his head, which looked like two protruding bags if he didn't look closely, but if he looked closely, they were two prominent horns.
"Damn, what's going on? Why do I have two horns on my head," Jiang Chen wanted to cry without tears.
However, in the past two months, Jiang Chen has gradually accepted this fact that cannot be changed, but fortunately, when the hair grows, it will be covered, and in two months, Jiang Chen and the old man have also learned the language of this world.
"The deserted village is really a strange place in the world! I didn't die, and I came to such a place. ”
Jiang Chen also learned from the mouths of the old man and grandmother what kind of world this is.
The Divine Desolate Continent, also called the Burial Immortal Continent or the Burial Immortal Star, has a very strange name. The Divine Desolate Continent is full of strange lights, there are ordinary mortals, there are cultivators who seek immortals and ask questions, there are immortal caves, and there are demon clans who practice with beasts. There are many races, and there are no surprises.
The Divine Desolate Continent is vast and boundless, and mortals can't finish this continent in their lifetime, even if they are cultivators, no one can say how vast the Divine Desolate Continent really is.
In this land, there are many religions and chaos, and the territory is vast, which can be roughly divided into five regions, and the cold north is also known as the Far North. The southern region is mountainous and is known as the land of ten thousand demons. The Eastern Regions are remote, and it is also the holy place where Taoism originated. The Buddha Land of the Western Regions, the most prosperous in the Middle Regions, is also known as Huangzhou, because Zhongzhou is the place of the major dynasties.
Jiang Chen's current location is an unknown place in the 100,000 mountains of the distant Eastern Regions, a deserted village.
Deserted village, no one knows that there is such a paradise in the depths of the 100,000 mountains, isolated from the world, without the troubles and disturbances of the outside world, it is a rare and peaceful place.
"Being alone in a foreign land as a stranger, thinking of your relatives every festive season"
Jiang Chen was even more hopeful and curious about such a world: "If one day I can cultivate immortals and attain the Tao, I will definitely be able to return to the earth." ”
Whenever night comes, Jiang Chen will think of the fat man and the mouse, and he doesn't know where they were born and how their lives were.
"I don't know what grandma is like now, she must be very sad now!" The white-haired man sent the black-haired person to the black-haired person, and whenever he thought of Jiang Chen, he felt very uncomfortable.
Jiang Chen has no parents, and has been living with his grandmother since he was a child, "Grandma, I will definitely find a way to go back, you must take care of yourself." ”
"Xiaochen, what's wrong with missing your relatives again?" the old man under the moonlight came over and patted Jiang Chen comfortingly.
"Grandpa, you haven't rested so late!" Jiang Chen was very grateful to the old man who took care of him in front of him, and Jiang Chen even learned that he had appeared strangely in their yard at that time.
"Xiaochen, you appeared next to the monument at that time, and your grandmother and I found you. The old man pointed to a stone monument standing outside the village.
I don't know how many years the stele has existed, there are some sword marks on it, the knife marks have not dissipated, and there is a very ancient absurd word engraved on it, which is infected with the traces of history.
"Xiaochen, I believe that one day you will find your way home, don't think too much about it now, just do what is in front of you. ”
"Since you can't sleep, let's play a game of chess with grandpa!" the old man sat on a stake under the peach blossom tree, and in front of him was a chessboard.
"Okay! Anyway, if you can't sleep left and right, you can play a game of chess with your grandfather," Jiang Chen also put aside his troubles and laughed.
In the past two months, Jiang Chen has played chess with the old man, but he has never won, if the old man's chess skills are placed on the earth, he is definitely a generation of grandmasters.
"Life is like chess, playing chess is like watching the world, either playing chess or making chess pieces. ”
"Floating life is like a dream, only when the prosperity is exhausted, can we see the most simple and primitive things. ”
The old man held the wine jug in one hand and played chess pieces in the other, and said lightly.
Every time he plays chess with the old man, Jiang Chen feels like he is watching life, the chessboard is ever-changing, sometimes it is like being on the battlefield, killing thousands of enemies, just moving forward.
Sometimes I want to experience the hardship of crying in the red dust, either I can't extricate myself from it, or I jump out of the sea of suffering.
"When you are drunk, you are a song, and life is geometric. Fight the sword to find the red face, and stroke the qin to find the road. My path should be passionate, radiant, and unstoppable. Jiang Chen drank the peach blossom wine made by his grandmother and felt it.
"Xiaochen will go down here today! Rest early. The old man's deep eyes didn't know what he was thinking, and he touched his snow-white beard.
"Grandpa, you should also rest early. ”
"Old man, did you say that Xiaochen really came from that world?" Just after Jiang Chen left, the old grandmother came to the old man and asked.
"What land is our homeland, but it has become a ruin," said the old man's deep eyes, a terrifying beam of light, and murderous intent filled the air.
"It's time to settle everything that once came to its roots. ”
"In the prophecy, he is the one who can change the fate of our race, maybe it is really him! Xiaochen has been to a certain place, and he has also obtained the power of blood, so that he has been perfectly reborn once. ”
"We just need to wait and see what happens, we have been waiting for thousands of years, why rush for a while, it is the day when the real dragon will always take off, and the help of outsiders may have unimaginable power for a while, but it is not their own after all, it will only become a flower in the greenhouse." ”
"Everything in heaven and earth has a fixed number, yes or no, will we know later?" said the old man meaningfully as he touched his beard and drank wine.
If Jiang Chen was here at this time, he would definitely be surprised, the two old men had lived for thousands of years, and they could be regarded as old immortals.
What else is the former residence, could it be that the two old men were also people on the earth, but all this Jiang Chen does not know.
Jiang Chen, who was lying on the bed, did not sleep, but meditated cross-legged, and in this coma for a month, Jiang Chen's mind did not know when a jerky scripture appeared.
Jiang Chen didn't tell anyone, Jiang Chen still understood the truth of his guilt. Cultivating alone according to the mysterious ancient scriptures, every night to draw the essence of the moonlight, in the morning with the first ray of sunlight to practice is twice the result with half the effort.
Since discovering this period of time, Jiang Chen has never let go of such a good opportunity, because when he understands the world, he understands that without strength, everything is empty talk, let alone going home.
The mystery of the mysterious ancient scriptures makes Jiang Chen refreshed every time, and he has endless strength on his body.
The mysterious ancient scriptures not only expound the five elements of yin and yang, but also express that the human body is like chaos, and the body itself is an infinite treasure, and only by constantly opening up the treasure in the body, just like opening up chaos, can the potential of the body be stimulated.
"Out of the mortal realm, reborn, mortal cultivation must wash all the impurities of the mortal body, so that it is more suitable for the body of cultivation, some are born with a divine body, an innate Dao body, and it is easier to practice if they are born close to the Great Dao?" This is also what Jiang Chen learned from the old grandfather and grandmother.
"There are many special physiques in the world, and special physiques are easier to get out of the ordinary perfectly, and some special physiques are more able to open up the power of the flesh to get the innate divine arts, which belong to their own unique secret techniques, and the realm of detachment is also the most important level for laying the foundation of cultivation, as long as the realm of perfection is reached, the treasure of the flesh will be opened up and the treasure of the body will be unexpectedly harvested. ”
"There are no longer a few people who have achieved the perfect effect, but if they want to reach the legendary limit of the Mortal Foundation, they have never heard of it since ancient times. Only the legendary emperor seems to have reached the extreme foundation, but it is always a legend, and no one knows whether it is true or not, because there is no emperor since ancient times......"
The old man's words rang in Jiang Chen's ears all the time, which also pointed him to a good way, although the old man did not teach him any cultivation methods, but in the past two months, he gave Jiang Chen a lot of cultivation knowledge, Jiang Chen didn't know what the two old men cultivated, only knew that it must be very powerful.
What Jiang Chen didn't know was that he was not only nourished by the essence of the blood pool, but also obtained the baptism of the dragon soul, and the purification of the Buddha beads had already been perfectly out of the ordinary, but he needed to further tap the potential of the body, and if he went further, sooner or later he would reach the possibility of building the ultimate foundation.
In the past two months of cultivation, Jiang Chen has also reached a transcendent level, and he vaguely feels the benefits that the blood pool has brought to him.
"I didn't expect the blood pool to change my body, there is such a magical power, it seems that the power of the blood pool has not been fully absorbed by me. Jiang Chen said to himself.
"The ultimate foundation, I must achieve it, and I will definitely go back to the earth. ”
