Chapter 7 The Road is Under Your Feet

The boy walked out of the plain of earth and fire, and continued on his way, not stopping to rest until he had gone a long way out. The injuries on the boy's body have almost recovered on their own.

"After passing through this Earth Fire Plain, it should be Yingqi Ridge, and then you only need to pass through the Zilan Heavenly Forest to reach the edge of Shizhou!" the young man muttered to himself. He was about to take out the map and check it carefully.

"How so?" the boy pulled out a handful of shredded paper from his bosom!

"Could it be that the man in gray hit me with a few kicks?" the young man's expression changed, and he said to himself, "Which man in gray is so powerful that he can tear the map apart through his clothes".

The young man smiled bitterly and said to himself, "The map has been destroyed, how can I go back to Shizhou?"

The boy felt a little uneasy without the guidance of the map, although he knew where to go, after all, the map was drawn by his own hand, but it was like losing the guiding lamp, and he was afraid to enter the Jedi!

In the Tianyu clan, Yegongzi's father, Hei Yu, sat in front of the replaced wooden bookcase, his expression becoming more and more impatient.

"Why haven't you come back yet?can't you even be a little ghost??," Black Feather snorted.

"The master is angry, with Ah San's skills, there are several secret treasures to bless, which young man is certain to die" The gray-clothed man said in a trembling voice.

"I hope so, if it weren't for what you said, then you would be able to go and see Ah Er" Hei Yu snorted coldly, the corners of his mouth showed a hint of cruelty! The man in gray knelt on the ground, his body trembled obviously, and his heart was cold.

"Goo, goo" A white bird landed on Black Feather's arm. Black Feather glanced at it and removed the letterbox from the bird's feet.

"Waste, a bunch of waste. Which little ghost actually let it run away" Hei Yu looked at the note in the letterbox, his expression became more and more gloomy, and said: "Someone dragged Ah Da out for me, cut out his tongue, and threw him into the torture cave"

Four gray-clothed figures came in from outside the house and quickly dragged out the kneeling Ah Da.

"No, master, give Ah Da another chance!" Ah Da begged for mercy. Black Feather glanced at him, just stroking the bird's feathers.

"Opportunities are reserved for valuable people, and you have no value in my eyes," Black Feather sneered. With a sudden force on his hand, he plucked one of the bird's feathers.

"Goo, goo" The bird screamed in pain, but he didn't dare to run away!

On the other side of the Tianyu Clan, Feng Yu was meditating in the room.

"Uncle Feng, have you seen Gu Nan?" Qian Yu ran in front of Feng Yu and said breathlessly, "I went to his house, and there was no one." Then, I went to the library again and asked Uncle Mo, and Uncle Mo said that he had not come."

"Uncle Feng, do you know where he is? You must know that, right?" Qian Yu became more and more excited the more she spoke, tears rolling in her eyes.

"This is left to you by Xiao Nan" Feng Yu took out the hair ornament left by the young man and handed it to you. Although there had been some conjectures before, when it really happened, Qianyu was still a little sad. Fingertips ran over the hair ornament, and you could clearly feel that the surface was not smooth.

"He's going to go back to his hometown after all, and he can't stay here forever. Cry, cry, just cry," Feng Yu lovingly hugged Qianyu in his arms and comforted.

"Wow" Qian Yu finally cried, tears sprinkled like jade beads with broken threads. Because he didn't have a mother, he was seen as a monster by the other children in the tribe since he was a child, so he didn't have a friend. The arrival of the boy made Qianyu feel like a friend. The boy beat the night boy for her, making her feel the same warmth as her relatives

The boy got up and continued to walk, because this place was not very far from the Tianyu Clan, so it was not very safe. And the boy can't be sure which "Night Boy" will send someone to kill him again!

The boy walked and stopped, and from time to time walked a distance to the left and right, observing the terrain and determining his bearing. There was a delay for some time because of this, and the sun had already set!!

"Hey, which piece of bluestone is there someone?" the young man's eyes lit up and he stepped forward. I saw an old man sitting on a boulder at the foot of the mountain. The old man was dressed in a gray robe, and it was easy to be ignored, but the young man had bright eyes and found the old man at the first time.

"What are you doing here, old man?" the boy asked, stepping forward.

"You want to ask for the way home!" the old man smiled.

The young man nodded, but raised his vigilance, and said to himself, "How did the old man know? Could it be that he was sent by the Tianyu Clan?"

The old man smiled, didn't explain, and said, "The road is at your feet, it depends on whether you dare to go." There is no road in this world, but when people walk more, they will have roads."

The young man was thoughtful, the old man nodded slightly, and sighed lightly: "Nowadays, people are accustomed to walking the road left by their predecessors, but they don't know that if they walk on the road of their predecessors, it is difficult to surpass their predecessors. Because we have been afraid of the unknown from the beginning, how can we face the more terrifying unknown when we reach higher heights?"

The old man seemed to be muttering to himself, as if he was deliberately enlightening.

The young man bowed and said, "Thank you for your advice."

"It's getting dark, the Eagle Ridge at night is not something you can go to, just rest here! You can also talk to my old man" The old man smiled, dissuading the young man from moving on.

"Hmm" The boy nodded, and found some firewood to light up the flame, which was used to heat the dry food on his body. The flames flickered, and the young man handed the hot dry food to the gray-robed old man.

"Grandpa, eat some!" said the young man with a sincere face.

"That's all you bring, I'll eat it, what will you do in two days?" the gray-robed old man took the dry food and said.

The young man scratched his hair with his hand and said, "It's okay, I have a lot of strength, and I'm not afraid of starvation."

"Strength has nothing to do with starvation, on the contrary, the greater your strength, the faster you will get hungry," the old man said with a smile. The young man's face suddenly darkened, and he subconsciously touched his stomach.

"Let me tell you a story," said the old man slowly, "Once upon a time there was a rich man who had a lot of jewels, and he kept them all the time, and he was reluctant to exchange them with others, and in the end he starved to death because he had no food!"

"You are the rich man now, you have no strength, but you don't know how to exert it," the old man said slowly.

"Am I strong?" the teenager asked.

"It's stronger than ordinary people, because you're already on the path of cultivation, but you can't play it," the old man nodded slightly.

"Cultivation path?" the young man was a little puzzled.

The old man nodded and said, "Blood Transformation Secret Realm." Removing impurities from blood and flesh and achieving immaculate perfection is the starting point of the spiritual path."

"But I don't even know what cultivation is," the boy wondered. He didn't know anything, how could he already be on the path of cultivation?

"It should be the credit of the dark blue fireworks in the depths of your eyebrows. It cleanses your body all the time, making your body pure" The old man's eyes were sharp, he saw everything, and discovered the secret of the young man's eyebrows.

"Grandpa, which flame can you see?" the young man was a little surprised.

The old man nodded and said, "Okay, it's time for me to go." If you go out of your own way in the future, come to Zhongzhou 'Daosanshan' to find me."

"Grandpa, it's so late, let's leave tomorrow," the young man kindly reminded. It's a pity that before he finished speaking, the figure of the old man had already melted into a pitch black. In front of him was Yingqi Ridge, and the boy did not chase it out.

At the end of the day's walking, the boy was already quite tired, and shortly after the old man left, the boy leaned back against the boulder and fell asleep.

In the dark night, there seemed to be a figure on the top of the mountain not far away. Which figure is looking straight here, if the young man is on the top of the mountain, he must be able to recognize which old man is before.

"I actually felt a trace of the breath of the ancient ancestor on the cluster of blue fireworks in the depths of the young man's eyebrows, maybe this young man was a bait he thrown" The old man muttered to himself, and continued to murmur: "If it is a bait, it will not only fall into the fish, but also lead to the person who dropped the fish behind the scenes."

The old man's voice was so dissipated into the night breeze that he couldn't hear it even from his side.
