Chapter 408: Windfall
When the old man heard this, he stared at Zhang Xuan for a while, and then shook his head.
"Uncle, what do you mean by shaking your head?" Zhang Xuan asked puzzled.
"Little brother, I've lived here for so many years, I'm used to it, and I don't want to go out. If you don't want to continue to take me in, then I have no choice but to go out. The old man replied with a sigh.
When Zhang Xuan heard this, he also sighed. People are often like this, where they are used to living, they don't want to move places, they don't want to change the environment.
For him, the old man is willing to continue to live here, and he must not be pushed. He originally hoped to increase some popularity in Xiaoqiankun, but now that the popularity has come, it is too late for him to be happy.
Ask everyone else and the answer will be the same.
He then turned back to the old man and said, "Uncle, if you want to live here, then let's live together, as long as you don't dislike it." However, there are some questions that I don't quite understand and would like to ask you. ”
"If you ask, I will answer all your questions." The old man responded coolly.
"Then how did you get taken in by the Evil Tiger in the first place?" Zhang Xuan asked.
"Fight!" The old man responded, "Although we are mortals, we are not afraid of him, a Xuan Immortal, because Xuan Immortal cannot use the power of Xuan Immortal when fighting with mortals, and mortals with great strength and some ability can completely defeat him." At that time, we all relied on our own skills, thinking that we could bully him, but we didn't expect to be defeated by him and accepted by him. ”
"Do you mean that Xuan Xian can't bully mortals for no reason, and as long as mortals provoke him, he can let go of his hands and feet, and after defeating mortals, he can still take them?" Zhang Xuan asked with interest.
If the rules of the Xuan Immortal Realm were set like this, then he could also act in the same way as the Evil Tiger in the future. A dignified Xuan Immortal is impossible to let those mortals who have no ability to bully him.
The old man nodded and said, "That's it." We didn't think of this at first, thinking that if we couldn't beat him, we would be injured at most, and we could fight again after we healed, who knew that people would be able to take us into Xiaoqiankun! ”
After figuring out the reason why the old man and the others were accepted into Xiaoqiankun by the evil tiger, Zhang Xuan immediately asked the next question related to it: "Old man, the evil tiger brought you here and raised you for nothing, it should be his loss, right?" ”
"Hmph, this is not his loss, it should be said that he has made a fortune!" The old man said, "He took us in, and we became his people, and when he encountered a provocation from mortals, he let us out to help fight." Over the years, we have helped him fight more times than I can count, but because of the number of people, we have never been defeated. ”
Ah, it turns out that there can still be such an operation!
When Zhang Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but want to laugh. When he first came to the Western Realm, he had not yet come into contact with the mortals here, but he had received so many helpers who could help him fight at once, and there was no danger of being bullied by mortals at all.
From this, he thought that the monsters he had brought from Crouching Tiger should also be useful. The setting of the Xuan Immortal Realm is that Xuan Xian cannot use the power of Xuan Xian and use Xuan Xian's magical powers to fight mortals, but it does not set that the monsters he brought cannot fight with mortals. If those monsters can use the magical powers they have cast on the planet Crouching Tiger, then even if he does not receive the people collected by the evil tiger, he will be invincible all over the world, and any mortal will be terrified in front of him.
Seeing that he wanted to laugh but didn't, the old man stared at him and asked, "Little brother, do you think this is fun?" ”
"No, no, no, I'm just curious!" Zhang Xuan waved his hand and said, "Ah, by the way, old man, you said that you have been here for hundreds of years, so how old are you and how long is the life limit here?" ”
The old man responded: "I have lived for almost 600 years, and the average life expectancy of people here is 700 years. ”
"That's good enough!" Zhang Xuan bowed his head and said, "So, an outsider like me, can't you tell who is a child and who is an adult?" ”
"Adults and children can still see it." The old man responded, "The children here grow up very quickly from birth to fifteen years old, and they grow slowly after the age of fifteen. Because of this, people here usually treat people over the age of fifteen as adults, and those under the age of fifteen as minors. ”
"Ah, that's a reality."
Zhang Xuan pondered as he spoke, and said secretly: It seems that the people here are a little peculiar, the growth rate before the age of fifteen is about the same as that of the people on the Crouching Tiger Planet, and the growth rate after the age of fifteen is almost ten times slower than that of the people on the Crouching Tiger Planet. Mortals are like this, they don't know how Xuan Xian is.
Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and asked, "Old man, what is the lifespan of those Xuan Immortals?" ”
The old man glanced at him and said, "The lifespan of Xuan Immortal must be at least 10,000 years old, just like an immortal bird. Therefore, in order to live forever, some mortals went to the Immortal Cultivation Sect to cultivate immortals. ”
"Oh, it turns out that there are still some immortal cultivation sects here." Zhang Xuan said, "Those who are cultivating immortals but have not yet become immortals, what do you call them?" ”
"People who have successfully cultivated immortals are called immortals. People who are cultivating immortals, we call them immortals. The old man responded.
Zhang Xuan thought about it when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Hey, the Immortal Cultivation Sect here is equivalent to the Martial Arts Sect of the Nether. The people in the martial arts sect are martial artists, and the people in the immortal cultivation sect are immortals, but they can also correspond. However, those immortals are no longer ordinary mortals because they have learned some immortal supernatural powers, if they bully mortals casually, wouldn't those ordinary mortals have to be bullied to death?
Hearing him ask this question, the old man smiled and said, "Little brother, your worry is a bit redundant. Those immortals are disciplined by the Immortal Cultivation Sect, and they are warned to cultivate immortals before cultivating virtue, so it is not easy for such a situation to occur. They have been staying there since they entered the Immortal Cultivation Sect until they succeeded in cultivating immortals, and they rarely come out for activities in normal times, and ordinary people can't see them. ”
"Well, hearing you say that, I also think that such worries are a bit unnecessary." Zhang Xuan said with a smile.
"Little brother, take the liberty of asking, you should be a thousand years old now, right?" The old man asked.
Zhang Xuan blinked and looked at the old man, he wanted to laugh, but he didn't laugh. He subconsciously thought that the old man's question was ridiculous, but when he saw the old man's serious appearance, he realized that it was a serious question.
According to the standards of the Xuan Immortal Realm, he should indeed be more than a thousand years old, and the old man was still a little conservative in asking.
However, when he usually interacts with people, he can claim to be a thousand years old in order to disguise his identity as an outsider. Normally, outsiders are more likely to be bullied, and the people of the Xuan Immortal Realm are fierce, so he has to be careful, and it is even more necessary to pretend to be a native.
And in the face of a person like Lao Han who is parasitic in Xiaoqiankun, there is no need for him to hide anything.
"Uncle, you may not believe it, I'm only in my twenties."
Zhang Xuan said, staring at the old man intently, wanting to see how surprised he would be.
Sure enough, when the old man heard this, his eyes widened wider than a bull's eye, and he couldn't hold his tongue for a while, and he didn't speak. The people around the old man were also dumbfounded, and their expressions were full of surprise.
Zhang Xuan said with a smile: "Everyone, don't look at me like this, I can see that I am a little weak!" ”
The old man said: "Little brother, it seems that you are really from the Netherworld. In our western realm, people in their twenties have absolutely no such ability! ”
When Zhang Xuan heard this, he was very proud in his heart. In the eyes of the people of the Nether Realm, this Xuan Immortal Realm seems to be very mysterious, but in fact, it is not a big deal. The mortals here don't have much ability except for being strong, even those who cultivate immortals, and it is very likely that they will only have some decent supernatural powers after a few hundred years old, and they can't compare with him at all.
