Chapter 5: Demon Cultivation
Qi Hao found the broken wooden box under the bed and opened it, and there was a turquoise fruit inside.
"Just such a human spirit fruit will kill grandpa."
Qi Hao didn't take a second look, and handed the human spirit fruit to the woman.
He wanted to exchange his grandfather with the fruit, but since he agreed, he could only do so.
Qi Hao didn't stop or stop, and walked out of the house.
"This little guy really dares to go to Black Tiger Mountain, isn't this going to death?"
The woman clutched the box with disdain.
"The treasure is already in hand, don't think about it." The man said lightly, his expression was not very good.
"He has gone and never returned, but how can I explain to Chen Jiazhuang? My thirty taels of silver are going to be in the soup. ”
At this, the woman's face ached.
"With so many more fields, we don't lose anything. What's more, if the son can really become an immortal in the future, does he still need to worry about the silver? The man persuaded.
The woman retorted directly: "What do you know, if you are an immortal, you don't need to eat, don't you need to spend money?" Or let's go get him back. ”
Thinking of this, her eyes lit up. She didn't promise anything just now, and even if she did, it wouldn't be a broken promise.
"Forget it, even if you catch him back and run away from Chenjiazhuang, it will be another trouble." The man persuaded.
"Also, this little thing has a big temper, and when it comes to causing trouble, it will implicate us. However, if he wants to go to Black Tiger Mountain to die, it is better to fulfill us. The woman said triumphantly.
The man looked at the woman in confusion and said nothing.
"The old man sold himself to the immortals of Black Tiger Mountain, so why can't we sell Qi Hao to the immortals as well? Maybe when the immortals are happy, they will give us a precious fruit. The woman said.
"On Black Tiger Mountain? No, you're dying. ”
The man didn't want to think about it, so he refused.
"Afraid of what? The immortal gave the old man a treasure, which shows that he is an honest person, and it is not so terrible. Anyway, I'm going to go for a trip and get one more treasure for my son. If you are afraid of death, stay at home by yourself, and I will go by myself. ”
With that, the woman wriggled her fat buttocks and slammed the door.
The man sighed and followed behind the woman.
In the snow, Qi Hao walked forward quickly.
The heavy snow for days almost covered his legs, and he walked very clumsily, but Qi Hao walked fast.
"I've heard of Black Tiger Mountain, a few years ago there was a demon cultivator who lived there." Fairy Chunzhu said.
"It's a demon cultivator? Not a youkai? What is that Demon Cultivator? Qi Hao asked.
"In the eyes of your human race, the cultivation of grass, trees, birds, and beasts is all monsters. But there are good and bad monsters. But demon cultivators, without exception, are all demons. Some cultivators will specialize in hunting demon cultivators to eliminate harm for the people. Fairy Chunzhu explained.
"What's the difference with the Demon Cultivator?"
Qi Hao listened carefully, and his pace slowed down a lot.
If you can understand a little better, it will be easier to trade in the future.
"Demon cultivators also refine bones, but unlike ordinary cultivators, what they refine is not their own bones, but other people's bones."
"Refining other people's bones?"
"Yes. Snatch other people's jade bones, and use special methods to condense the jade bones and integrate them into your own bones. In this way, the pain in the practice is reduced, and it is also much simpler and easier. Therefore, the most favorite thing for demon cultivators to do is to accept apprentices. They select the spirit child and cultivate the spirit child. When the spirit child cultivates to a certain level, they will kill and take the bones. ”
Hearing this, Qi Hao couldn't help but say, "It's indeed the devil." ”
As a mortal, he could imagine how excited and happy those spirit children would be to learn the arts, and how desperate and painful they would be in the end.
"If it's just a bone, it's not too cruel. Many cultivators, when they encounter bottlenecks and cannot break through, will also look for the bones of others to use. As for demon cultivators, they are good at a method, they can seal part of a person's soul in the jade bone, and use the soul to nourish the jade bone, the jade bone will grow faster, and the value will be greater. But the sealed soul not only has to endure torture every day, but also has to watch itself help its enemies become stronger. ”
"This..."
Qi Hao was completely shocked.
"If the demon cultivator does not die, these souls will never be liberated. Therefore, there are often a lot of resentments on the body of demon cultivators. Fairy Chunzhu sighed.
"Why did that immortal buy grandpa? Grandpa is just mortal. Qi Hao shuddered and thought of something terrible.
Fairy Chunzhu responded: "The most cruel method of demon cultivation is to slaughter a large number of mortals. Everywhere they went, a village was often wiped out. And their purpose is the same, for the sake of jade bones. ”
"For the jade bones?"
"That's right! Although most mortals do not have jade bones in their bodies. But there are some mortals who have jade bones in their bodies. It's just not a whole piece, but a very small part, or even half a piece. Although these jade bones are few, they are numerous, and they are also considerable. ”
Speaking of this, the fairy was silent.
Qi Hao understood that although his grandfather was a mortal, he couldn't practice. But it is very likely that there will be some jade bones in Grandpa's body, or even half of a jade bone, before he can be favored by the demon cultivator.
And the price that grandpa paid was more than just his life. For the sake of a human spirit fruit, grandpa has to endure endless torture.
Unconsciously, tears blurred Qi Hao's eyes again.
"Qi Hao, demon cultivation has no humanity, it's really too dangerous for you to go to that person..."
The fairy wanted to speak and stopped.
She didn't want Qi Hao to go up the mountain, but she didn't know how to persuade her.
"Sister, although that demon cultivator is not a good person, he also keeps his promises, and it is not impossible to negotiate." Qi Hao's attitude was resolute.
Since the demon cultivator is willing to give the human spirit fruit, it means that it is not completely extinguished human nature.
He had already thought about it, he would negotiate with Demon Xiu first, and even if he paid a big price, he would save his grandfather.
If it really doesn't work, he thinks of another way.
The fairy sighed; "Since you insist on going, I'll help you. I know of a place where there is a Xuantie Sword that may be exchanged with Demon Cultivators. ”
"Thank you, sister, I owe you this sword." Qi Hao was overjoyed.
He is poor and white, and he only has heavenly gifts, but he can't use them for others.
All he could think of was to exchange it for himself, and now that he has the chips in his hand, the possibility of getting his grandfather back is even higher.
He quickened his pace and followed the instructions of the fairy to find it.
The cold wind was still whistling in his ears, mixed with the woman's shouts, Qi Hao couldn't hear it, and he didn't look back, just walked tenaciously.
