The big fool returned to the grass hut, and he sat quietly at the head of the bed thinking about what the old man had just said, and his brows became more and more tight, until a ray of moonlight fell through the clouds, and the lips of the young man on the bed opposite moved slightly, dreaming of something. The big fool looked at Chen Rui in the dream, and suddenly smiled, the road went to the sky, the future is still long, there is no need to be confined to temporary troubles, it is better to lie down early, and may usher in a beautiful dream.

There was no word all night, and the next morning, the two people in the thatched hut woke up at the same time.

The big fool suddenly asked, "How far have you gone in the Jiuzhang Yang Pass?"

Jiuzhang Yangguan Road is naturally the place where Chen Rui traveled two meters yesterday, Chen Rui was about to say two meters, but he remembered that the other party didn't know the measurement of meters, so he gestured with his hand: "Your height plus such a long distance." He put his hands at the distance of a skull, and looked at the big fool with a smile on his face.

The big fool pushed open the door, looked back at Chen Rui's hand that had not yet been put down, and said approvingly: "Nine thousand zhang long for a day, two fools, you are very promising." ”

Chen Rui scratched his head, puzzled by the sudden compliment from this big fool.

Without thinking about it anymore, Chen Rui came to the Jiuzhang Yangguan Road again, looked at the position he marked yesterday, and walked up slowly, light and natural in one go.

The old man in the thatched hut, holding a kettle, walked towards Chen Rui like a fly, and when he stepped down, the dust was scattered and the ground was gorgeous.

Every time you settle down, a lotus flower blooms.

The old man stood behind Chen Rui, quietly watching the young man in front of him walking on thin ice, his steps were heavy and he didn't dare to get down.

"Second fool, why is this like this?" The old man's sudden voice startled Chen Rui, who was thinking, and the steps he had just taken retracted.

Chen Rui was a little dumbfounded, and said, "Master?"

The old man walked directly to the nine-zhang long Yangguan Road, and moved forward while drinking tea, and it was already a back and forth in a moment. He stood in front of Chen Rui and pointed to the ground under his feet: "Second fool, you have walked so carefully and timidly on Yangguan Avenue, the difficulties on the True Immortal Avenue are much longer than this nine-zhang path, I hope you can also be like this today on the way to pursue the avenue, step by step, think twice, and don't forget your original intention." ”

Chen Rui looked at the old man's eyes and nodded, and then the old man said: "Of course, that's just one of them, you can also follow my example, care about him, ignore him, strike first, and drive away directly before thinking about it, what kind of ghosts, demons and monsters, will crawl at my feet." Speaking of this, the old man's momentum suddenly unfolded, like an insurmountable mountain. Chen Rui couldn't help but think of the mortal stone yesterday, and felt that if there were outsiders on his side, he would definitely feel that he was incomparably small in front of the old man.

When Chen Rui was like a flat boat crumbling in the storm, the old man's momentum suddenly retracted, and he returned to the ordinary old man again.

The old man turned his back and said, "Second fool, I don't understand why you were sent here. With your bones, you can easily climb to the peak on the path of spiritual cultivation, why do you step into this thorny path of martial cultivation?"

Chen Rui was shocked, he had come here since then, he had not used a trace of spiritual power, plus this place was suppressed by the laws of heaven, the spiritual power in his body was all solidified, like a pool of stagnant water, there could be no fluctuations, how did this old man perceive the spiritual power in his body.

As if he saw what Chen Rui was thinking, the old man pointed to the ring in Chen Rui's hand: "Although the old man disdains the means of spiritual cultivation, this space ring is indeed convenient, but it only exists here." ”

Compared with the old man's calmness, Chen Rui seemed a little nervous. He blushed and said softly, "I want to be a fellow martial artist." ”

After hearing this, the old man laughed and said, "You are even more greedy than the boy of the Kun clan, beware of being greedy and not chewing too much, but you will spoil your appetite." ”

Chen Rui understands that the old man is enlightening himself, but this is the path he has already identified: "Didn't you say just now, 'Treat him three seven twenty-one, strike first', as for the quality of appetite, I don't care so much." ”

"Then you go and see again. The old man moved out of the way and motioned for Chen Rui to come and walk the Jiuzhang Yangguan Road again.

Chen Rui firmly held the goal of martial arts practitioners in his heart, and stepped forward again. Originally, he needed to think about it for a long time, but now he has no distractions, and he walks smoothly and steadily. Walking on the ground, the laws of the Heavenly Dao here seemed to disappear, and he didn't feel any difficulties, so he walked back and forth.

"Hmph, I didn't expect your kid's determination to be so resolute, and you can look forward to your future journey. But the big fool kid is going to cry, he took away two days of your creation, I thought you couldn't finish the Jiuzhang Yang Pass Road in four days, so that the big fool could compensate you, but I didn't expect you to do it in only two days, and you picked up the gold paper in vain. The old man was a little crying and laughing, these two people are really on par, and stupid people have stupid blessings.

Since Chen Rui walked the Jiuzhang Yangguan Road, there have been more supplies beside his bed, basins, stools, and teacups...... In just two days, the number of objects was about the same as that of the big fool, which also made the big fool shocked. During this period, Chen Rui also wanted to return the golden paper to the big fool, but the big fool resolutely refused.

The big fool explained it like this: "Second fool, the increase in your objects means that this heaven and earth have recognized your Dao heart, and your future growth is limitless. I hope that my golden paper can be exchanged for a good relationship with you for seven days, and when we meet again in the future..."In the end, the big fool stopped, just shook his head, and said something later.

On the seventh and last day, Chen Rui stood in the grass hut, next to two old men with similar appearances, as well as a big fool and a colorful parrot.

"Second fool, your stay time is up, this world can no longer keep you, I hope that after you leave the mountain, remember what I said to you. After the old man with the scar finished speaking, he waved his hand and motioned for another old man to take Chen Rui out of the mountain.

As for the others, they didn't say anything, watching Chen Rui slowly disappear into the distance.

Chen Rui followed the old man without scars all the way, unlike when he first came in, the laws of heaven here were no longer suppressed on him, whether it was internal strength or spiritual power, they were like plants and trees that had been in drought for a long time, full of vitality.

"Thank you!" Chen Rui bowed deeply, and then said, "I also hope that you will help me hand over this thing to the big fool, and it will be regarded as my thank you to him." ”

The old man without a scar took his hand and glanced at it quickly, it was a dilapidated animal skin scroll with some unrecognizable patterns on it. His pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately asked cautiously, "Are you really going to give him this skin scroll?" I can tell you in advance that the value of this skin roll is not inferior to the golden paper he gave you, and even more than in some respects. ”

Chen Rui said with a smile: "This thing may cause me to be killed, so it's better to be a favor and make friends with a big fool." "What Chen Rui said is true, according to what the old man said, the value of this thing is too high, and it can't be hidden in the space ring, in case someone is targeted, he, Chen Rui, may be planted on this animal skin scroll at any time. It's better to get rid of it early, so as not to be afraid. "The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty", Chen Rui can only understand this truth before his strength is weak. The reason why it is not given away in the mountain is because I am afraid that the big fool will not accept it, and second, I am worried that the big fool will not look down on this thing. Although the value of things far exceeds Chen Rui's imagination, throwing away the hot potato early can be regarded as a kind of harvest.

Seeing that Chen Rui had no intention of taking it back, the old man nodded and disappeared into the vast sea of books. The old man disappeared, Chen Rui returned according to the way he came in, pushed open a misty "door", and he returned to the present world.

"What!Kun?" the little turtle's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Yes, the old man in the mountains did say so. Chen Rui nodded in confirmation.

The little turtle is not small, and he knows a lot, Chen Rui watched it move back and forth on the ground, like an old man in deep thought. After about seven or eight round-trips, the little turtle asked again, "Did that young man of the Kun tribe specifically talk to you about anything?" ”

Chen Rui lowered his head and thought for a while: "He said something 'nine thousand zhang long one day', only this sentence is a little confusing to me." ”

"Under what circumstances?" asked the little turtle.

Chen Rui said the matter of comparing the height of the big fool that day, and after some words, the little turtle sighed repeatedly: "Hmph, the big fool is really not stupid, he is so ambitious at a young age, what nine thousand zhang, when did such a good guy appear in their Kun clan?" Speaking of this, the little turtle seemed to feel inappropriate, so he changed his words: "Even if there is, it is a matter of eternity, and he is still far from reaching that level." ”

Chen Rui looked at the little turtle sulking inexplicably, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on with that Kun clan? And the Xuan clan you asked me to talk about, what is the origin of this?"

The little turtle, who was already angry, saw Chen Rui throwing out a lot of questions, so he naturally didn't get angry: "It's really right that they call you a second fool, I don't know when you will have the ambition of a Kun boy, and you will know every day that you will return to the earth, and you will be so good." After speaking, the little turtle's figure flashed and disappeared into Chen Rui's forehead.

Chen Rui touched his forehead and laughed at himself helplessly: "I have implemented the names of these two fools!"

At night, the crescent moon is like a bow, as if it wants to shoot through the night. Chen Rui looked at the moonlight and suddenly remembered a big event.

"Damn, how did I forget my promise to that demon. Chen Rui made a deal with an evil ghost that day in order to kill the strong man of the Jindan period, and the evil ghost once said, "Whenever the moon shadow is hazy, you need to take a drop of your own essence blood and sacrifice it to me, once a month." At that time, the situation was urgent, Chen Rui naturally agreed, but in the past few months, he actually forgot about the matter completely, thinking of the hideous face of the evil ghost, Chen Rui suddenly had a cool breath behind him.

Chen Rui couldn't think too much, he quickly bit between his fingers and forced out a drop of red. Reciting the mantra silently in his heart, his blood was as hot as fire, turning into a wisp of green smoke and disappearing into the night sky. After doing all this, Chen Rui breathed a sigh of relief, although he came late, he finally fulfilled his promise, he was not a man who broke his word.
