Chapter 40: Luoyan Village
Luoyan Village, a village like a paradise, where there is no fighting, the villagers live a self-sufficient life, farming and weaving, and compared to the wars of the outside world, it is indeed a great place to retreat.
It is surrounded by mountains on three sides, the mountain range is high and steep, and it goes deep into the clouds, and I heard that even the wild geese that soar in the sky can not fly, so it is called Luoyan Village.
The entire village occupies a radius of twenty miles, which is enough for a village with a population of only about 200 people.
The only exit here is the bog, and the bog is the only exit to the outside world.
It's just that the people here are used to living in this place, and no one wants to get out of the village.
Of course, no one from the outside world has ever come in all the time.
But today, outside the village chief's house, almost all the villagers gathered.
Because in the village chief's house, a teenager slept on the bed, and for the whole night and a day, the boy was in a coma, breathing evenly, but there was no sign of awakening.
"Xiaohu, where did you save him?" On the side of the bed, a gray-haired old man's brows twisted into a big pimple, he glanced at the young man on the bed, and then turned back to a young man who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old standing behind him.
The young man's full name is Zhang Hu, he is young, but his body is sturdy, and he is a muscular man.
Hearing the inquiry, Zhang Hu immediately replied respectfully, "Grandpa, he was what Xiaoyu and I saw on the edge of the quagmire outside the village one morning three days ago, and I saw that he was still angry at that time, so I brought him back." ”
The village chief's name is Zhang Xiao, ninety-eight years old, the oldest person in the entire Luoyan Village, and the most respected person in the village, Zhang Hu, is his grandson.
Hearing Zhang Hu's words, Zhang Xiao looked back at the young man covered in mud on the bed again, his brows were furrowed deeper and deeper, he didn't look back, stared at Gu Tiandao, and said, "Are you sure you were in a coma when you rescued him?"
"Yes, grandpa, he was indeed in a coma that day, and now, it has been three days, I don't know why he hasn't woken up yet," Zhang Hu scratched his head, and he also felt a little unclear, in his opinion, he was in a coma for three days, how to say that he should be awake, three days, Zhang Hu and his companions went all the way to the village to come back all the way to find a way to wake up Gu Tiandao, but all the methods have been used, Gu Tiandao is unconscious.
Yes, the young man lying on the bed is Gu Tiandao, maybe God is helping him, just a few days ago in the evening, when he was swallowed by the mire, there was an undercurrent in the mire at this time, naturally, the Gu Tiandao who sank into the mire was also swept away by this undercurrent, I don't know how long the undercurrent moved, and was finally sent to the shore.
Also at this time, Zhang Hu and his companions were hunting in the mire, and when they came back, they also saw him in a coma, and they also brought him back to the village by the way, but, until three days passed, Gu Tiandao still did not wake up, Xiaohu did not dare to hide it anymore, and sent him here.
Gu Tiandao is a pulse cultivator, and a pulse practitioner has a skill called turtle breath**, this skill is very special, he can use it autonomously, and he will automatically cast it, that is, when your life is in danger, turtle breath** It will spontaneously start and enter a state of suspended animation, at which time the functions of the whole body will stop, breathing will also stop, the pulse power in the body will automatically gush out of the body, and an invisible defense circle will appear on the periphery of the body, until the pulse power in the body is all used up, then the defense circle will disappear, the body will return to normal, and the internal functions will work again.
However, although the functions in the body have returned to normal, they will not wake up, and the body will spontaneously absorb the energy from the outside world until the pulse power in the body is restored, and then it will really wake up.
When Gu Tiandao sank into the mire, because he couldn't breathe, he used Turtle Breath** a few minutes later, entered a state of suspended animation, and released a defensive ring around his body.
Fortunately, just when his defensive circle disappeared, the undercurrent of the mire also stopped surging, and at this time, Gu Tiandao had already been pushed to the edge of the mire by the undercurrent, and at this time, Zhang Hu and the others were also brought here by the undercurrent.
The pulse power in Gu Tiandao's body formed a defensive circle, which only lasted for one day, and it took much longer to recover the pulse power, and so far, it has been a full three days.
After all, restoring the pulse power is the body's spontaneous absorption of external spiritual power, not deliberate absorption, and this speed is naturally much slower.
"Strange, strange," Zhang Xiao frowned all the time, his eyes kept staring at Gu Tiandao on the bed, and muttered to himself.
Hearing Zhang Xiao's muttering, Zhang Hu also echoed, "Yes, to say that a person who has been in a coma for three days and three nights will either die or wake up, but now he has not woken up and has not died, which is really strange." ”
Zhang Xiao's brows have been frowning, he has his thoughts, there is a special human existence on the Guwu Continent, they are called Tianyantong, what is Tianyantong, that is equivalent to a kind of fortune teller-like existence, they can see a person's future, divination of unknown things, however, when Tianyantong uses insight spells, it consumes their own vitality to divination, after all, if you want to get something, then you have to pay a certain price.
Zhang Xiao is a Tianyan Tong, he is well aware of the disadvantages of casting Tianyantong spells, so he did not pass on this skill to Zhang Hu.
No one has been here in Luoyan Village for hundreds of years, and out of concern for the safety of the whole village, Zhang Xiao used the Tianyantong skill this time.
It's just that when he used the Heavenly Eye to calculate the Ancient Heavenly Dao, he only saw a blank space, and nothing was calculated.
The Tianyantong skill never misses, but why it can't play any role in Gu Tiandao's body, this makes Zhang Xiao unable to figure it out.
"Xiaohu," Zhang Xiao turned around after a long time.
"Grandpa," Zhang Hu hurriedly stepped forward to respond.
Zhang Xiao paused, and as if he had made up his mind, he said to Zhang Hu, "Xiaohu, you go to the bamboo forest and invite your grandmother over." ”
Zhang Hu didn't agree immediately, but asked with some hesitation, "Grandpa, aren't you and grandma?"
It's just that he didn't finish his words, Zhang Xiao immediately interrupted, "You just go, you can say," Speaking of this, he glanced back at Gu Tiandao again, and then continued, "You said that the person she was waiting for may have come,"
Zhang Hu is second monk was confused, he scratched the back of his head, and asked puzzledly, "Who is grandma waiting for?"
And Zhang Xiao waved his hand and said, "You just go and follow what I say,"
After speaking, he turned around and sat in the wheelchair next to him, closed his eyes and recuperated.
Seeing Zhang Xiao like this, Zhang Hu stopped asking, sighed in a low voice, shook his head, turned around and walked out of the room.
