Chapter Sixty-Eight: The South Rotten Sea

Same day as this.

In a certain room in a small post station outside Linyang City, Lu Ran bit his finger and made a decision.

He decided to pursue the past and the future at the same time.

There is something strange and contradictory about this statement.

But Lu Ran has his own understanding, for himself, the past is as full of mysteries and elusive as the future.

Therefore, while the future is important, the past cannot be ignored.

So inspired by Miss Tree, Lu Ran compared his life to a tree, and at this time, he stood in the perspective of a bystander and began to examine the tree.

The past is the rhizome that goes deep into the ground, and the future is like the branches and leaves that keep growing.

But that's just the surface.

While it's true that the branches and leaves are growing, the rhizomes are also growing downward.

If the rhizome does not die, the tree will not die, so the word "root" was coined, so the rhizome is actually much more important than the branches and leaves.

Therefore, if you want to see the future, you must first know the past.

In this way, you can get a full view of the tree.

And to implement the specifics, to implement the action, is to find out the opportunity for revenge in the next practice, and find out the life experience of Grandpa and himself, as well as the ins and outs of the immortal who is under the water prison and his eyes are like water.

There are so many secrets in the world, which is why there are immortal immortals, which is probably the meaning of the existence of cultivators.

It's just that at this stage, the meaning of this is still a little vague in Lu Ran's heart, but this is still something to be happy about, because after sorting out these thoughts, Lu Ran only feels that the road in front of him is becoming clearer and clearer.

He told Miss Tree what he thought, and proposed that the two of them have a drink together, Miss Tree was obviously only interested in wine, what the past and the future she did not care about, she said that she had not drunk again for three thousand years, she had lived in the sea of wine for several years, and she was drunk every day, and that was the happiest time of her life......

Saying this, she raised the wine glass, which was bigger than herself, drank it in one gulp, wiped her mouth, and said, "The water of forgetfulness is the best wine in the world," and she fell drunk under the oil lamp on the table, and after three or five breaths, she snored like a drunk.

Lu Ran shook his head, picked her up carefully, put her on the bed, found a small square scarf for her to cover, and then sat on the edge of the bed and kept thinking, is this the divine weapon I use to defend myself in the walking cultivation world?

Thinking of this, Lu Ran got up again and closed the doors and windows, and then took out the important things he was carrying one by one and put them on the table.

Now that your thoughts have been sorted out, you should also sort out your belongings by the way, so as not to be robbed like last time, but you don't know what you have been robbed.

There are not many items, and they are divided into three categories according to magic weapons, money, and sundries.

Magic Weapon: [Fog Dew Remembrance Blade], [Miss Tree] one, [Baby Mother and Daughter Armor] one, [A Horse] two pairs.

Money: The 1,000 taels of gold given by Huihuan have not been touched, and the 388,654 yuan of nine cents and six cents obtained from the thieves is still a person who is not short of money.

Miscellaneous items: In addition to two sets of clothes and some travel essentials given by He Duxiang, the only thing worth mentioning is the dozens of iron lumps modeled after the small flower on the island in memory, which are also closely related to the past, and may be more precious than those magic weapons.

Oh, by the way, there is also a copy of "Introduction to Qi Refining" given by Xu Hui, because I haven't understood half a word so far, so it can only be counted as a miscellaneous item.

Just this little thing, less is less, but there are few benefits, at least not as swaggering as Hui Huan and Ke Zhizi at the beginning, and too ostentatious and without strength or background, it is necessary to recruit people like himself.

Lu Ran sat at the table, stroking the iron flower, thinking about yesterday, thinking about it, thinking about the room of treasures that He Rouyu was going to give away in the He Lai Inn, thinking of the treasure [Golden House Collection] that Chu Yi took out in the black tent in the dense forest of Wanshan, thinking of the [Futu] award ceremony, and thinking of the treasure cave that Bai Yunfei sent him to on the Holy Maiden Peak not long ago......

Wow cried out.

……

After repairing and getting on the road, the road was much easier and faster.

Lu Ran took Miss Shu and went all the way to the southeast from the trail, bypassing the three big cities, and a month later, finally came to the South Rotten Sea Boundary.

In front of him is a dilapidated fishing village with few people.

"Then what kind of 'murder immortal' lives in this kind of place?"

Miss Shu peeked her head out of Lu Ran's placket.

"This is even more dilapidated than our Lujia Village."

Lu Ran looked at the village in front of him that could be seen at a glance, and he couldn't believe it, thinking that he had recognized the wrong way.

Catching an old man passing by, Lu Ran asked him: "Uncle, is this the South Rotten Sea?" ”

The old man leaned on his body, glanced at Lu Ran very reluctantly, and did not answer the question, but muttered: "Ouch, there is another immortal seeker." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Lu Ran hurriedly chased after him and stuffed five yuan into his hand.

The old man's face immediately changed, so he knelt down and kowtowed, and said happily: "This is not the South Rotten Sea, this is the South Rotten Village, and it is the only place to go to the South Rotten Sea." ”

He used his black hands to point in one direction at random, regardless of whether Lu Ran could really see it or not, and said, "The South Rotten Sea, naturally a sea, is in that direction." ”

Lu Ran thanked the old man, thinking that I am familiar with this sea, and the direction pointed by the old man is not wrong, there must be a place where you can park the boat and go to sea in that direction.

Just as he was about to take a step towards that side, the old man asked again, "Are you going to look for immortals?" ”

Lu Ran nodded, looked around, and then whispered to the old man: "I'm going to find Xu Fang." ”

"Who is Xu Fang? I don't know ......" The old man frowned when he heard Xu Fang's name, but he didn't say anything, just reminded: "If you are looking for immortals, you can't go over there now, wait until you go again tonight, and then the immortals will come in a boat, just ......"

"Just what?" Lu Ran saw the old man with some fear on his face.

"It's just a person who is looking for immortals, and he has never seen anyone come back." The old man also lowered his voice, "What kind of Xu Fang are you talking about, he is also the one who didn't come back, right?" Is it your friend? Everyone in the village knows that the person on the ferry is a fish demon, and most of the people will be eaten if they are carried into the sea, and only those who are related to the South Rotten Sea can really go to the fairy mountain...... However, if you can't come back, you can't come back, so why go to Xianshan? I've lived all my life, and I've never seen or heard of anyone coming back......"

"So suspenseful?" Lu Ran listened to it, but he thought it was very interesting, this Xu Fang was quite good at pretending to be a ghost.

gave the old man another five yuan, and Lu Ran ran all the way in the direction that the old man pointed to.

Some people died, but not completely......
