Chapter 199: The Secret of Longevity
The mountains are treacherous, the cliffs are deep and dangerous, and the Yunsheng Mountains are strange and rugged.
Eber walks in such a vicious place.
Ever since he left the temple in the mountains, he had traveled all the way west, trekking through the mountains.
He has been gone for twenty or thirty days.
But he still didn't see Xuanyuan.
"This kind of place is really boring, sinister and desolate."
Yi Bai couldn't help but complain.
He walked on foot like this, how could he not feel bored.
He was all beginning to think about whether that Zhang Zen had coaxed him.
Otherwise, he had been gone for so long, how could he not even see the shadow of Xuanyuan Kingdom.
Yi Bai pondered, whether to kill back, and asked, this Zhang Chan.
'Wait! ’
Yi Bai suddenly seemed to see something.
He stood still, looking into the distance.
In the distance, it vaguely looks like there is a single-plank bridge, and the outline is looming, and it is difficult to see.
But when he listened closely, he heard the sound of rushing water.
He remembered what Zhang Chan said to him, seeing a living water, and a single wooden bridge, and going forward is the Xuanyuan country.
Isn't that the right thing to do?
"I guess that Xuanyuan Kingdom is coming soon!"
Yi Bai's mind was surging.
He walked briskly forward.
He walked not long ago, really saw a living water, the water is under the cliff, the hope is endless, the waves are flying, the two cliffs are eight or nine miles apart, can cross this living water, there is only a single-plank bridge, the single-plank bridge is thin and slippery, ordinary people, how can they walk through this single-plank bridge.
Yi Bai knew why Zhang Chan wanted to set up a temple there to block the way.
Ordinary ordinary people, even if they have walked through the poor mountains and rivers along the way, it is difficult to pass before such natural dangers.
But......
This is not a problem for Yibai.
Yi Bai is a real dragon, if he turns into his true appearance and survives this natural danger, it is not a matter at all.
But Yi Bai didn't have the idea of turning into his true nature.
He was going to take the bridge.
Yibai said to do it.
He jumped on the single-plank bridge in one fell swoop, and his body swayed, and the single-plank bridge was so slippery that even he almost fell down.
But Yi Bai is extraordinary, how can it fall easily.
but by such single-plank bridges.
He walked slowly.
He didn't take a few steps.
WhewW......
A foul wind blew.
The evil wind that blew was far greater than the wind we had encountered before.
In the evil wind, the unjust soul wailed, constantly blowing Yi Bai, wanting to blow Yi Bai into the water.
Yi Bai's eyes widened with anger, the Sanskrit word 'A' condensed in his mind, and he stared directly at the evil wind.
The evil wind was glared at by it, and did not dare to come near.
When he was about to blow to Yibai, he turned a corner and didn't dare to get close.
Yi Bai gave up and walked towards the opposite cliff.
……
Two sticks of incense time.
Only then did Yi Bai come over from the single-plank bridge.
"This bridge is really shaking."
Yi Bai glanced back, full of emotion.
He walked back on.
In a few moments, he saw many footprints on the ground in front of him, and he followed them.
Walked for a short time.
Yi Bai saw that there was a very peculiar clearing in the mountains.
It is really strange that such a wicked mountain can come out of a vacant land.
Eber walked into the clearing.
He walked for a while.
But they saw nothing.
This made him feel confused.
Didn't you say that you could see Xuanyuan Country after the single-plank bridge, why can't you see it?
Yi Bai couldn't, and went further.
I saw more and more footprints on the ground around me.
But the empty space has come to an end.
Beyond that is a land of mountains and forests,
Yi Bai had to go into the mountains and forests alone.
After burrowing into the forest, surrounded by trees, he had to have a small road, and he had to keep his body down to get into it.
Yi Bai cautiously walked inside.
Not long after he walked, he felt that his surroundings were getting wider and wider, and he regained his sight, and as he walked, he could vaguely hear the sound of laughter and play.
He looked around, and two or three people were dressed in leaves and animal skins as skirts, and a smell of blood came to his face.
If you look closely, these two or three people are holding a bloody wild boar that has been dead for a long time.
So primitive.
It was as if he had seen a wild man.
"Where are you from?"
The two or three people found Yi Bai, and when they saw that Yi Bai was dressed luxuriously, they were not surprised, and walked up to greet him, his words were clear and his communication was clear.
"I'm from there."
Yi Bai pointed in the direction of Dongtu outside the mountain.
"Then, that Daliang County?"
Someone exclaimed.
"Do you know Daliang County?"
Yibai asked.
"Many years ago, there were also people from Daliang County who married my clan, so we know Daliang County."
The man explained.
"Your people? Is it Xuanyuan Country? ”
Yibai asked again.
He was a little confused in his heart.
This person who is suspected to be from the Xuanyuan Kingdom looks articulate and does not look like a savage.
"Xuanyuan Country? Regardably, our clan calls itself the Xuanyuan clan, which can be called the Xuanyuan country. ”
The man nodded.
"I heard that the people of Xuanyuan have always lived a long life, it is a country of longevity, and those who have a short life can live for 800 years, I am curious, so I came here to visit one or two."
Yi Bai calmly stated the purpose.
"So that's the case, Ah Hu, take the distinguished guest to our territory and go to the patriarch."
The man instructed one of them, then turned to Yi Bai and asked Yi Bai to follow the man.
Yi Bai has no opinion.
He looked up at the man named 'Ah Hu'.
That Ah Hu was the one who gave up his hand and asked Yi Bai to go with him.
EPA keeps up.
The two walked together on the mountain road.
Yi Bai looked at the man leading the way in front of him, looking silent, and he asked out loud.
"Hu, huh?"
"Hmm."
"How long do you live?"
"I don't know, it's been more than a thousand years."
"Do you know why you've survived so long?"
"I don't know."
Yi Bai saw that he couldn't get any news from this Ah Hu, so he gave up talking.
But he couldn't figure out how the people of this Xuanyuan country managed to live a long life.
He couldn't see anything different about this man with his eyes.
I just think that this person's popularity is stronger than ordinary people.
Other than that, there's nothing peculiar about it.
……
Yi Bai followed Ah Hu to the tea kung fu.
I saw Ah Hu take Yi Bai to a wooded clearing.
In this clearing, many dirty children are laughing and playing, and in the distance, there are men working in the fields, women weaving silk cloth by the trees, and old people accompanying children, comfortable and happy, and rows of tree houses appear in front of you, like a paradise.
Seeing this scene, Yi Bai couldn't make an evaluation, he felt that these people were very strange, some people were dressed in leaves and tiger skins, and some people were wearing cloth clothes, which were completely different and had a tight conflict.
But Yi Bai saw it, and didn't feel why, but felt that there was a special charm here, which was one with heaven and earth, and everything was so natural and beautiful.
"Strange."
Yi Bai still couldn't see where the difference in this Xuanyuan country came from.
"Please."
Ah Hu said to him.
After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the rows of tree houses.
Yibai followed.
The entry of the living man attracted the attention of the men, women and children inside, and all the people here came to ask him where he came from.
"I'm from the East."
In the face of so many people, Yi Bai could only answer.
"Dongtu? But what about Daliang County? The last time I came to Daliang County, it was really good, and I also liked our Xuanyuan clan. ”
"Sir, would you like to come into our house and sit down?"
"Bah, sir, don't listen to her nonsense, enter her house, but you can't get out, let's enter my house."
The people here are enthusiastic and rush to invite Yibai.
This made Yi Bai stunned.
It's just that Yi Bai can't do anything, so he can only smile and cater to it, but he feels in his heart that every move of these people seems to have a rhyme, and it is natural, like a move from the heart.
Yibai pondered.
Suddenly, I heard a sound of breaking through the air.
Yi Bai pot shook in the sky, and the Zen staff and Buddha policy had a tendency to show the form of the protector.
Fortunately, Yi Bai reacted very quickly and sensed that the attack was harmless to him.
He dodged and dodged easily.
Yi Bai turned his head to look.
I saw a woman carrying a hammer and wanted to knock him on the head, but he dodged him.
The woman grinned, not feeling anything at all.
Ah Hu's face turned dark, and he hurriedly walked over, retreated him, and asked the onlookers to go down.
That's when it stopped.
"What is this?"
Yi Bai was puzzled by the woman's actions just now.
"I'm sorry, sir, our patriarch has a word, do everything you want to do, we have rules here, women are adults, if you want to get married, you can take a hammer and knock people by yourself, knock it out and take it home to be considered married."
Ah Hu clenched his fists and said.
"This ......"
Yi Bai looked strange.
Just now, the woman actually wanted to marry him.
Is......
Yibai can't describe it.
Ah Hu was not surprised, he took Yi Bai and continued to walk forward.
Walked for a long time.
Ah Hu led Yi Bai to a treehouse.
Ah Hu let Yi Bai in again.
"Don't need to tell me?"
Yi Bai asked in surprise.
"I don't think so."
Ah Hu waved his hand and said.
Yi Bai had no choice but to walk into the treehouse.
When he walked into the treehouse, he saw an old man with white hair and high spirits sitting on a wooden chair, swaying and seeming to be very leisurely.
"Huh? Who are you? ”
The old man saw Yi Bai and asked.
"Patriarch, he is from outside, from Daliang County."
Ah Hu poked his head in and said.
"Daliang County?"
When the old man heard the name, he came to his senses and got up from his wooden chair.
Ah Hu retracted his head and ran away with a puff of smoke.
"You're from Daliang County? Want to intermarry with my people too? ”
The old man asked.
"No, I'm not from Daliang County, I'm from farther away, I don't want to come to you to marry, but I want to know why Xuanyuan Kingdom can live so long."
Yi Bai walked into the tree house and spoke calmly.
As he spoke, he looked around, only to feel the smell of earth, and the treehouse was very simple, and he could see the whole picture at two or three glances.
"Is it the rumored Dayan?"
The old man didn't answer any other questions, but asked rhetorically.
"The Great Yan Dynasty has died, and now it is the Great Wu Dynasty."
"I have lived for more than 2,000 years, and occasionally, I have also seen a lot of people from outside, they all claim to be Yan people, and many of them have recently said that they are from Daliang County, but I think about it, if there are people who come unexpectedly in the future, they should be called Wu people."
Yi Bai listened to the old man's muttering and did not interrupt.
After a while.
Only then did Yi Bai speak, and asked again: "I want to know, why can the people of Xuanyuan Kingdom live so long, I wonder if you can solve this problem for me?" ”
Eber is very sincere.
"Aren't you doing this answer now?"
The old man said with a smile.
"What am I doing?"
Yi Bai was surprised.
"You are a person from outside, you should be able to see what is the difference between our Xuanyuan clan and people from other places."
The patriarch said.
"Different? More rustic? ”
Yi Bai recalled for a while, and only said the word 'simple'.
"Simple? It can also be said, but the real longevity is not simple, it is better for you to intermarry with my people, and I will teach you how to live a long life. ”
The old man said with a smile.
"Intermarriage?"
Yi Bai was stunned.
"Yes, as long as you intermarry, of course I can tell you why my people can live a long life."
The old man's patriarch said.
"Is your clan short of men?"
Yi Bai didn't know why.
"There is no shortage."
"Then why do you want me to marry your people?"
"I've seen a lot of people, you're very different, you seem to have a divine light on you, I think you will stay in my clan for a long time in the future, and you will definitely bring great changes to my clan, so I want to keep you in my clan."
The patriarch is also a frank man, so said.
"Divine light?"
Eber was silent.
Can he say that he is a god?
"Would you like to?"
The patriarch asked again.
"I don't want to!"
Yi Bai shook his head and refused.
"If you don't want to, forget it."
The patriarch didn't force it, and smiled.
"Then can you still tell me the mystery of Xuanyuan's longevity?"
Yibai still knows.
He didn't understand.
Why can the people of Xuanyuan live a long life, and even intermarry with them.
From the eyes of other laws, there is nothing strange about the people of Xuanyuan Kingdom.
"I can tell you."
The patriarch spoke.
This made Yi Bai surprised again.
"Why are you willing to tell me again?"
Yibai asked.
"When did I say that if you don't marry with my people, I won't tell you?"
The patriarch said with a smile.
"Then what is the longevity of Xuanyuan Kingdom?"
Eber asked.
"Please come with me, I'll tell you."
The patriarch was stiff and walked out.
When Yi Bai heard this, he hurriedly followed him out.
The two walked one after the other to the outside of the treehouse.
The patriarch suddenly stood outside the house and pointed to a dog in the corner, giving birth.
"You see, this is the secret of longevity."
The patriarch said.
"This, what is the secret of longevity?"
Yi Bai didn't understand.
He has never encountered such a thing since he practiced.
Dogs give birth, and they can live a long life.
"Look here, it's also the secret of longevity."
"This, this too."
The patriarch pointed to the chickens on the other side, which were hatching eggs, and to the kittens, who were prostrate on the ground, snoring and sleeping.
Yi Bai really couldn't understand it.
Why are such animals involved in the secret of longevity?
No matter how he associated, he couldn't do it, connecting these things.
"You are watching here, when you understand, when you understand, when you will understand, why everyone in the Xuanyuan clan can live a long life, in fact, longevity is not a big deal."
The patriarch said with a smile......
