Chapter 174: A Thousand Nights for a Young Man

The Golden Divine Eel, it is indeed a pity to give up like this, the essence blood of this creature can prolong life for thousands of years, and it can also treat all kinds of injuries of the Great Dao, and the flesh and bones of the living dead.

However, this is an area protected by the strong men of the Gai Dynasty, and there is a supreme formation pattern in the rice field where the golden eel is located, Ye Chen currently has no ability to crack this complete supreme formation pattern, so he can only give up.

As they walked towards the old village at the end of the rice fields, they saw a thin figure walking around the village in the distance, and in addition to seeing several people sitting on the old wooden chairs with backrests, the wooden chairs swaying and creaking in the distance.

"There really are people in the village!"

Ye Chen was surprised, he originally thought that there should be no one in this village anymore, after all, after thousands of years, this place is closed, there was a dark and bloody chaos in the chaotic ancient era back then, and even the Gaidai powerhouses who sheltered these people died.

Ye Chen and the three of them stepped on the path paved with fine cobblestones and came to the front of the village, and the charm of the vicissitudes of ancient meaning filled the entire village, which could not help but make people feel the passage of time and the alternation of years.

The village is surrounded by a wooden fence, with an open field and a dense cluster of buildings in a very old style.

The buildings were so old that many of the houses looked like they were about to collapse, the grass on the roofs was rotten, and the doors and windows were in tatters.

Such a scene looks like a deserted village, but under the old locust tree in the middle of the clearing in the village, there are some old people sitting on rocking chairs, which swing back and forth rhythmically, making a creaking sound.

Ye Chen and the others walked into the village, went straight to the old locust tree, and looked at the old people sitting on the rocking chairs under the old locust tree, looking at the old people with white hair and looking peaceful, their hearts couldn't help but tremble slightly.

And Nan'er and Yan Xiaoyan opened their mouths, wanting to say something, but in the end they didn't make the slightest figure.

At this time, a thin young man wearing animal skins walked out of a dilapidated house in the village, and when he saw the strange man and woman in front of the old people, the young man's expression was slightly stunned, but he soon became calm.

He didn't say a word, he was surprisingly calm, as if he didn't see Ye Chen and them here, holding a rough wooden plate in his hand, on which were some dishes and chopsticks, and walked delicately under the old locust tree.

This young man looked only seven or eight years old, although his body was very thin, his hair was messy, and his body was even a little dirty, but his eyes were as calm as a dry well, and his immature face gave people a sense of fortitude.

He skillfully placed the dishes and chopsticks on the stone table between the old people, and then bowed to them, sat down on the stone table by himself, and whispered: "Grandpa, grandma, it's time to eat again." In the huge village, now only you are left with Qianye, and Qianye will definitely take good care of you. ”

The young man completely regarded Ye Chen and them as air, and after he finished speaking, he picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate them by himself, while the old people sitting on the rocking chair still closed their eyes tightly, and did not respond to the young man's words in the slightest, only the rocking chair shook rhythmically, making a creaking sound, and seemed to be responding to the young man now.

Looking at the thin young man in front of him who was calm and resolute, listening to his words, Ye Chen's heart was suddenly moved a little sour. In this dilapidated ancient village, I don't know when it started, only the boy was left.

Several old people sitting in rocking chairs, I don't know how long they have been gone, they don't have any breath of life, they are very peaceful and quiet when they leave, they seem to be asleep.

The order here is very special, although the old people have long since passed away, but the bodies have been preserved and have not decayed. Perhaps, as the boy said, it was these old people who had passed away who had accompanied him all these years to make him less lonely.

Living in such a place, it may be better to be accompanied by an elderly person with no life than to be alone and lonely.

Ye Chen had experienced the feeling of silence in the world, that feeling was really unbearable, and at that time he was already an invincible supreme, but the young man in front of him was only a seven or eight-year-old child.

"Child, your name is Qianye, isn't it?" Ye Chen squatted down and looked at the young man wearing animal skins and being dirty, his eyes were very soft, and a feeling of distress rose inexplicably in his heart, as if he had seen his child when he was a child, and his father's love was gradually submerging his heart.

The young man turned his head to look at Ye Chen, his gaze was very clear, there was no impurity, but there was no fluctuation either, as if there was no emotional fluctuation from the innate. He looked at Ye Chen like this, not responding or speaking.

"Qianye, don't be afraid, if there is any difficulty, we can help you. Yan Xiaoyan also felt quite sour in her heart, and it was hard to imagine how a seven or eight-year-old child would live in such an environment.

Nan'er also squatted down, looked at the young man with smart beautiful eyes, and said with a smile: "Qianye, are you lonely and lonely living here?" We can help you get out of loneliness and loneliness, and we can also make you very powerful, and you can fly away in the future." ”

The young man still didn't speak, his calm eyes moved from Ye Chen's body to Yan Xiaoyan and Nan'er's, but soon moved back, still looking at Ye Chen quietly, always remaining silent.

Looking at the young man's clear and calm eyes, Ye Chen's heart was filled with sourness. Although Qianye didn't say anything, his eyes were calm and didn't seem to fluctuate, but Ye Chen saw the loneliness and misery in his heart.

Ye Chen's divine thoughts peeked at Qianye's body, and at the same time, he felt extremely surprised while feeling sour, he found that Qianye's bloodline was very special, the vitality in his body was extremely vigorous, and the roots and bones were excellent!

Ye Chen quickly wondered again, the vitality of the blood was so vigorous, and the roots and bones were so good, it was not that there was no food, but why was Qianye so thin?

He pondered slightly, then reached for Qianya's head, and Qianya's body reflexively moved back, but finally stopped, letting the strange and warm palm caress his hair.

"Qianye, if you have any wishes, as long as you say it, I will try my best to help you achieve it, and then I will take you out of here, worship me as a teacher from now on, follow me to cultivate well, and you will become a generation of amazing Tianjiao in the future, are you willing?"

The young man was still silent, but there was a slight fluctuation in his eyes, and he gradually revealed a sad look, his clear eyes became a little red, and there was only sadness and pain in them, and two tears rolled down his face.

"Don't cry, if you say something, we'll try to help you. Ye Chen said, his voice was very gentle, like a father loving his child.

"Are you very powerful?" Qianye suddenly looked up at Ye Chen with a tearful face, and said, "I want to worship a very powerful person as a teacher, and I want to cultivate the supernatural power that can defeat the king!"

Ye Chen smiled lightly and said, "You don't need to be very powerful to defeat the king, I can satisfy you with these wishes, the premise is that you have to work hard to cultivate, and you must also reach the king realm." ”

Qianye looked at Ye Chen, and suddenly knelt down with a "poof", his forehead buckled on the ground, and bowed deeply: "Please help us, please help us!"

"Hurry up, what happened to me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you!" Ye Chen pulled Qianye up and wiped the tears on his little face, although this little boy was strong, he also showed the weakness in his heart at this moment, but what made his heart suddenly become weak, this is what Ye Chen wants to know the most.

Qianye sat beside Ye Chen, stretched out his hand to the old locust tree in front of him, and said, "I used to hear from the people in the village that this old locust tree had been stored before the village was formed, this locust tree is very mysterious and terrifying, it has been our nightmare for many years, and it has brought us disasters......"

Qianye said that the trunk of the old locust tree would manifest a pitch-black hole at night, and there would often be sounds of fighting and terrifying laughter from inside. About a thousand years ago, every once in a while, a villager would be sucked into the cavity of the old locust tree, and because of this, the village gradually withered.

It wasn't until a few years ago, four years after Qianye's birth, that an indifferent voice came from the hollow of the old locust tree, and all the only young adults in the village were sucked away. The voice inside said that they needed the essence blood with strong vitality, and if they didn't provide them with enough essence blood, they would kill all the young men.

In this way, all the young and middle-aged people in the village disappeared, and the women and children were sucked into the tree holes, leaving only Qianye and some old people with few lives.

Two years ago, the old people passed away one after another, and there was only one person in the whole village. But every night, the people in the tree cave would still force the essence blood, and if Qianye didn't find a way to give it to them, they would take away the corpses of these old people.

Qianye had no choice, and every night he would cut his wrist and send his own blood in, so as to save the bodies of these dead old people.

"The old locust tree, the tree hole, the sound of fighting, are there still living creatures inside?" Ye Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and a wave of anger rose in his heart, he finally understood that Qianye's blood obviously contained strong vitality, but why did he look so thin, it turned out that the essence blood had to be shed every night.

Under such circumstances, Qianye was able to survive, partly because his own bloodline was extremely strong, and partly because the heaven and earth here were very special, otherwise I would have been weak and died.

"Brother Ye, it seems that there is a passage to another space in this old locust tree, and the people in that space know the secret here and want to get the blood of the golden eel, but for some reason, they don't dare to come directly to use such a method!"

"Master, please save my uncles!" Qianye begged, his eyes filled with tears, this strong little boy, maybe only this kind of thing can make him show his soft side.

"Don't worry, Shizun will definitely help you!" Ye Chen said in a deep voice, he looked at the old people who had long passed away leaning on the rocking chair, and said, "Qianye, the old people have been dead for several years, you should let them be buried in the ground, instead of letting them be exposed to the wind and the sun like this." We'll bury them first, and then we'll take you into the hollow of the tree in the evening to find your uncles!"

"Thank you, thank you, Master!" Qianye knelt down again, her eyes were full of gratitude, and she kept kowtowing to Ye Chen, and her forehead touched blood on the ground.

Ye Chen couldn't bear it in his heart, stretched out his hand to help him up, and said: "You are already a personal disciple of the teacher, the master is like a father, you can also be your father for the teacher, no matter what you do, the teacher will not ignore it!"

"Hmm!"

Qianye's immature face was slowly moved, and he finally opened his heart to Ye Chen completely, and at this moment he really looked like a child.

Next, Ye Chen and Qianye chose a piece of dry land in the woods outside the village, buried a few old people who had died, and then he brought some game in the forest, roasted it quickly with a fire, placed it in front of the old people's graves, and took out the old wine and sprinkled it in front of the tombstones.

Qianye knelt in front of the tombstones of the old people and said, "Qianye has found Shizun, he is very good to Qianye, and he will take Qianye to find his uncles at night." In the future, Qianye will also leave here with the master, and I will come back to visit your ...... in the future."

Ye Chen, Nan'er and Yan Xiaoyan looked at Qianye from afar, and no one bothered him and let him worship at the grave alone, because in the future, Qianye would follow them out of here and return here again, I don't know when it will be.
