Chapter 5 Cave Encounters Mountains and Rivers

Slippery stone slabs and cold water vapor were everywhere, and the faint glow made it impossible to tell the time or where it came from.

He Wei has been climbing along the cave for a few days, and the misplaced foot bones have been forcibly corrected by himself in a cave hall, although he is in pain and alive, but he can barely walk.

The biggest problem was hunger, he hadn't eaten for days, which was why he kept crawling in.

The sunset on the big stone slab behind the waterfall, you can't go up or down, and you have to endure the deafening noise and endless water vapor all the time, which is really unbearable, and the depths of this cave are the only place to go.

It is strange to say, how can there be such a cave behind this waterfall with an entrance of only one meter, but the inside is unprovoked.

After climbing about 50 meters along the entrance, the cave suddenly became larger, and countless stone pillars supported the top of the cave more than 100 meters high, forming a hall. There was shallow stagnant water on the floor of the hall, and the water was full of schools of small fish that glowed white, illuminating the hall brightly. After looking at it, the hall was densely packed with forks in the road.

He wanted to catch a few fish to satisfy his stomach, but this small fish was extremely fast, and it flew away as soon as it moved, and it didn't catch one for a long time.

He endured the pain and straightened the wrong bones, tried to use clothes to go to the net, and tried to make traps to make up for them, but all kinds of methods were exhausted but he still didn't even touch the tail of the fish.

In desperation, he had to choose a fork in the road and continue to move forward, hoping to escape, no matter how bad it was, he had to find something to eat first.

But after walking for a few days, I didn't see a living creature, so I could only drink some cold spring water and continue walking.

After walking for a while, He Wei had almost run out of oil and dried up, and he had a few mortal experiences, and he rarely thought about it at the moment, so he moved forward so mechanically and stubbornly, and he didn't know where he walked through a few halls and a few forks.

It's actually very difficult for a person to think about nothing with an empty head, but this is often the case in these two days. Even unconsciously, he has walked down the gentle slope into the depths of the earth.

When I arrived at a small hall again, He Wei didn't want to go anymore, so he sat down on the spot, thinking that he would just sit down like this, and he fell asleep after a while.

The green bamboo grows all over the back slope, and rows of light yellow bamboo houses are scattered along the river, and the river in front of the houses flows slowly, and the turquoise aquatic plants along the banks gently sway in the water, caressing the river that has nurtured them.

A little girl with pigtails sat at one end of the rattan bridge, her right hand flicking a thin branch, and her eyes looked across the bridge from time to time.

A teenager walked out of the forest on the opposite bank, walked quickly on the bridge, the little girl also ran to the other side, the boy didn't have time to put down the firewood on his back and took out a large and thick leaf from his arms, which was wrapped in a handful of yellow canshan enzyme.

The little girl was laughing happily as she ate, and out of the forest came a kind-faced woodcutter, with a stack of wood on his back that was taller than his body, and he just looked at his children and smirked.

Suddenly the sight of the old mother mountain, a slightly chubby woman with a bamboo basket on her back and a short shovel shoveled up the pile of dry cow dung on the ground, and threw it into the bamboo basket with her backhand, and her movements were very skillful.

The woman walked along the path of cattle and horses, and from time to time gently carried the stones on the ground to the side of the road. When she encounters thorns in the branches, she will gently cut them off and throw them on the side of the road, "sharp stones will cut the hooves of cattle and horses, and thorns will scratch the bodies of cattle and horses" She always does good deeds.

The woman carried a basket full of cow dung to the vegetable garden by the river. As soon as the short leeks sprouted, the woman crushed the cow dung and sprinkled it evenly on top of the sprouts. In the radish field next to it, the red radish playfully showed its head. Big, round lotus trees sit casually in the ground. The fence by the vegetable patch was covered with red, green, and green sheets, and purple petunias were exposed through the cracks.

Suddenly, the giggling woodcutter was pressed against the stone by a large, illusory finger, and the woodcutter struggled in pain.

A large stone fell from the sky, and the lotus white was smashed and splashed everywhere, the colorful sheets were dyed yellow and black, and the huge stones and thick earth buried the leeks and turnips, and also the women in the vegetable fields.

A big, obscene and round face grinned, and long saliva flowed from between the thick yellow teeth. A tall and thin figure carried a little girl into the distance, the little girl struggled in the air with weak limbs, the blood of her mouth and nose mixed with tears on the ground in a line.

There was no sound in the dream, and there was no sound from what he was sitting on the ground and dreaming. It's just that the teeth bit the lips, the fingers scratched the ground, and two lines of tears flowed down his face.

"There are many bad people in the world, and there must be knives in their hands." A voice suddenly sounded in my heart.

"Knives? I only have a hatchet, but I can only chop wood. But it was Ho's own voice that answered.

"Wood knives can also kill."

"Murder? I don't want to kill people, I just want to protect the people around me. ”

"How do you protect if you don't kill? Who are you close to? What will you do if no one else is killed? ”

"What's the use of killing people, the sky will drop giant hands, mountains will fall boulders, rivers will have a thousand waves, what can I do?"

"Humph! Ignorant! When the knife reaches the extreme, it is the way, moving mountains and seas, destroying the heavens and the earth, what can't be. ”

"Moving mountains and seas? Destroying the world? Can people be brought back from the dead? ”

"Hey, hey! What are the daydreams of the boy, it's time to wake up! With two laughs, He Wei was awakened.

When I opened my eyes, it was still a cold and dim stone cave, and there was a sharp pain in my lips and fingers. I can't imagine that I will dream and scare myself before I die, how to laugh at myself, I don't care if my hands and mouth hurt, I just want to sit like this, and even a little annoyed that I haven't died yet, and I suffer this in vain.

Thinking of this, He Wei suddenly realized that his thoughts were much clearer, his stomach was not so hungry, and even his physical strength seemed to have recovered a lot, and the previous sense of near-death seemed to be gone.

Just when he was confused, the voice just now said abruptly: "Boy, do you think you've returned to the light?" ”

He jumped up and asked, "Who?" Who's talking? ”

The voice laughed: "You are not even afraid of death, are you still afraid of ghosts?" ”

"Hell, what the hell, you're a ghost?" , He Wei failed to hear the direction of the voice, and this last question rewound five points seriously.

"You are the ghost, if it weren't for the old man who spent the Yuan Shen to save your life, you would really be a ghost now."

He was suspicious and did not dare to say any more.

The voice said: "The old man has not heard the voice of the person for a long time, and he has not spoken to anyone, so the boy can ask if he has something to say."

He Wei took a deep breath and said slowly: "Senior, junior, are you also in this hole?" Can I meet the younger generation? ”。

"I can't see it, don't move, just sit there, you won't hear me as soon as you leave."

"Why?"

"What is the question? Interesting! The voice laughed.

Xu hadn't laughed for a long time, laughed very happily, and only stopped for a long time, and said: "Just because I'm on your back, don't move." ”

He felt a chill in his back, but he didn't dare to get up, and asked, "Senior, are you a human being, that, that?" ”

The voice laughed angrily, and said, "Boy, I'm a human being, but I'm not a normal person, I'll talk to you in detail later, tell me how you got here?" ”

He Wei sighed and said how to provoke gold and silver during eating, how to be insulted, and how to jump into the river to escape, but instinctively omitted the link of hearing the road and killing people.

The voice was silent for a moment and said, "Would you rather die than be dishonored?" Hehe, you know that there is no major event other than life and death! ”。

He Wei said in a muffled voice: "Senior, do you know how to get out here?" ”

"I want to know that I'm still here to die? I've been locked up for 400 years. ”

He was almost frightened and fainted, this mysterious person has been imprisoned for four hundred years, and he will not wait for death here for the rest of his life.

Before, he was not afraid of life and death, but now that he has the spirit, the more he thinks about it, the more frightened he becomes.

The voice added, "But now that you're here, we might be able to get out in three or five years." ”

Three or five years, what is a little difficult to accept, but it is much better than just waiting for death in this hellish place.

He Wei was about to ask how to get out, and the voice said: "I'll teach you some exercises, you break the waterfall in front of you, and we can go out, but I want to borrow your knife first." ”

He Wei hurriedly said: "Yes, you can use this knife as you like." As he spoke, he hurriedly untied the firewood knife, but he didn't know who to hand it to, so he had to put it on the ground.

After a pause, he asked again, "Senior, what exercises did you teach me?" ”

The voice said: "Boy, although this knife is a time, it is good to follow you, how can you do it casually?" The technique I taught you is called Shanhe Po, and if you want to deal with that waterfall with your talent, you have to practice it for three or five years. ”

"Senior, why do you want to teach me kung fu, your kung fu sounds very powerful, why do you want to pass it on to me? Can't you go out yourself? ”

He didn't finish speaking, but the voice was thunderous: "What do you mean by sounding powerful?" Do you know who I am? "What is the suffocation when he hears it.

The voice then said, "Let me ask you, cultivators, you have already seen the fat and thin two who bullied you, but do you know where the cultivators have cultivated and where they have cultivated?" ”。

"The first cultivator I saw in the younger generation was the giant hand who killed my parents, and the second was the fat and thin two who bullied Yiyi. Oh, of course you're a senior, but you don't know what you're cultivating, what you're cultivating, and what you're going to do."

"What extraterrestrial giant?"

He Wei said sadly and indignantly: "It is a big hand stretched out from heaven, that hand is illusory, but a pinch can crush a mountain, and my father was also pinched to death by it."

"It's this guy again, and the old man also wants to settle accounts with him."

"Senior, who is that hand? The boy has a deep hatred with him, but how can a man compete with such a god, no, such a monster? ”

"It's not wrong to say that he is a monster, this guy likes to snatch treasures everywhere, and many major events in the world are often involved. But for many years, no one knew his identity, and everyone called him the mastermind behind it. By the way, can you tell me more about this giant hand? ”

He thought that now he had nothing anyway, so he told him how to go up the mountain, how to lose his parents and villages, and so on. It's just that the piece of cloth is now the only relic of my father, so I don't mention it.

The voice wondered, "A huge stone pillar? It's weird, you have to go out and see it. That guy must be robbing some kind of treasure again, your parents and fellow villagers can be said to have suffered from unjustified disasters. ”

He was silent for a long time and said, "Senior, let's talk about cultivation."

The voice said comfortingly: "Although there are no exceptions in ordinary life, there are people who are smart and stupid, who are strong and who are weak, why is this? ”

I can't answer what it is.

The voice had no choice but to reply, "Just because heaven and earth have their own way of working, and man can learn and use it." For thousands of years, under the continuous exploration and summary of the predecessors of strange people and wise people, the world has created and accumulated countless cultivation methods, and has also achieved generations of people who have participated in the creation of the world, and the world calls the cultivators. ”

He was born in the mountains, and it was the first time to hear such a secret, and my heart was shocked.

"There are thousands of ways to practice, but there are no more than two types, one uses the power of heaven and earth for my use, and the other uses one's own potential for use between heaven and earth. The voice continued.

He was after a long time of aftertaste and asked, "Senior, what kind of fat and thin are the two of you?" I saw that they were so powerful that they could make me fall to the ground and break my leg with a wave of their sleeves. ”

"Poof! Can they be called awesome? It's really uninformed, they are close to the Triple Heaven Realm at most, and they don't enter the stream, it makes no sense for people of this level to divide this method into categories" The voice was full of disdain.

He said: "Boy, don't be this or that awesome, it's not embarrassing." Let me tell you, at least if you have attained the transcendent realm, you can be considered a true cultivator, and only when you have truly reached the holy realm can you be called powerful. ”

"Senior, what is extraordinary, what realm is that giant hand? What kind of realm are you? ”

"The realm after the six heavens is the transcendent realm, the transcendent and extraordinary, as the name suggests, is beyond the mortal, such people have obtained a glimpse of the mysteries of heaven and earth, and their physical lives are integrated into heaven and earth, and they are no longer ordinary people, and their life span has been greatly extended. The so-called transcendent sanctification, after the transcendent realm is the holy realm. That giant hand is at least above the Holy Realm, as for the old man, I'll tell you later, don't mention it now. The voice seemed reluctant to mention it again.

"Senior, how is the realm of cultivators divided?"

"People have three souls and seven spirits, broad and profound, no one knows their principle, but the strength of the realm must be related to this. To put it simply, the realm of a cultivator is the depth of comprehension of Dao Dharma and martial arts and the strength of the internal force in the body. The deeper the comprehension, the stronger the internal force, and the higher the realm. When I say that the transcendent realm has first glimpsed the mysteries of heaven and earth, this is what I mean. ”

"Then how can I improve my realm?"

"Think more and practice more."

"Huh?"

"If you think more and understand more, it is possible to have a deeper understanding of the ways of heaven and earth. If you practice more and fight more, the use of internal force martial arts will naturally be better. Of course, the exercises in the world are actually some summaries of the heavens and the earth by the ancestors. With the guidance of the masterful exercises and the guidance of others, it will naturally be faster to comprehend. ”

He Wei recalled these words and finally understood that there were really cultivators in the world. And the two of gold and silver are so powerful, but they are only unpopular people who can't even reach the triple heavens.
