Chapter 9: Immortals
Wangpanshan at night is extremely dangerous, many strange beasts will choose to come out to hunt at night, so after the meat is cooked and eaten, Liu Xunxiang will extinguish the fire, and then lie on the ground on the side in a daze.
From brocade clothes and jade food to the current wind and food camping, Liu Xunxiang has slowly adapted to such days, he is no longer the young master of the Liu family, and he has a long way to go in the future, where should he go.
Seeing this, the sloppy old man asked, "Kid, aren't you curious about what happened to your body?"
"What's the use of being curious, didn't you say you couldn't see the reason either?"
At that time, after Liu Xunxiang was pierced in the chest by that knife, her consciousness gradually began to dissipate, and the feeling was like being in an extremely dark space and her body was constantly falling, and I don't know how long it took like this, Liu Xunxiang suddenly felt that she was hit by a force in her back and bounced herself out, and when she opened her eyes, she saw the old man beside her.
The old man told Liu Xunxiang about the strange appearance of Liu Xunxiang's body.
It turned out that after this death, Liu Xunxiang's body underwent abnormal changes, her skin and bones were strengthened, and even her strength was much greater than before.
Later, under the guidance of the old man, Liu Xunxiang slowly began to learn to master his existing strength by fighting beasts, which made Liu Xunxiang happy for a few days.
The old man thought for a while and said: "It should be that the gray mist in your body has changed your physique, so that your body has the power that is now comparable to that of a cultivator in the Qi Induction Realm, so you are now equivalent to having the body of cultivating immortals, and what you lack is only the spirit of cultivating immortals that you have not yet had, you can simply understand it as a state of balance between mortals and monks, once you can break this state, it should be possible to cultivate." ”
"Is this true?" Liu Xunxiang heard that a carp jumped up.
"Can't be taken seriously. ”
“......”
Liu Xunxiang rolled her eyes, then lay on the ground again, her back to the old man and didn't speak.
"Since ancient times, no one has ever been able to break the routine that natural mortals can cultivate immortals, so your current situation, the old man really doesn't know, but if you have this creation, maybe you can become the first person in this eons, but you will be the only one on this road, where you can go in the future, how far you can go, no one can tell you the answer. The old man said with a rare seriousness.
"I'm going to have a lot of enemies to meet. Liu Xunxiang's voice sounded slowly.
The old man nodded and replied, "Yes, you will encounter many enemies, and if you are not careful, you will die, and there may not even be anyone to collect your ashes." ”
Liu Xunxiang seemed to be thinking about something, and after a while, a sentence came: "Then at least I won't regret it." ”
The old man smiled freely, also lay down and stretched hard, and then muttered in a low voice, "Boy, I hope you don't disappoint the old man." ”
There was nothing to say all night, the next morning just dawned, the sparrows in the mountains and forests began to chirp non-stop, Liu Xunxiang was woken up and got up and went out to practice, I was always reluctant to practice at home before, but now I don't need to supervise.
After squatting for an hour, Liu Xunxiang began to pack firewood and prepare meals. The sloppy old man was also awakened by the smell of barbecue.
After eating, the sloppy old man was going out for a walk to eliminate food, at first Liu Xunxiang was still a little worried, afraid that the old man would be in danger, but then he went out to hunt wild beasts and was fine, this old man as an immortal, if something could happen, it would be better to find a piece of tofu and kill him.
Recalling that when he opened his eyes, the old man's happy hand danced and jumped, and the corners of Liu Xunxiang's mouth couldn't help but rise.
"Anyway, my life was picked up, and staying in this Wangpan Mountain is also a death, and it is said that no one knows the depths of this Wangpan Mountain, maybe there is really any heaven and earth treasure that can help me step on the road of cultivating immortals. Liu Xunxiang looked at the sky and muttered to herself.
At this moment, more than a dozen meteor-like rays of light streaked across the sky and fell into the mountains behind him.
Rubbing her eyes, Liu Xunxiang seemed to see that there was a figure in every meteor.
"My God, there are so many immortals, there shouldn't be a big incident in this Wangpan Mountain Range. Liu Xunxiang muttered.
After thinking about it, Liu Xunxiang hurriedly cleaned up and rushed out of the cave, looking at the same environment around him, Liu Xunxiang glanced in the direction of the immortal and immediately chased after him.
The road in the mountains and forests is extremely difficult to walk, there are some weeds and thorns everywhere, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be scratched, unconsciously, Liu Xunxiang has been walking for about two hours, but there is nothing around except for trees and grass, and there is nothing left, Liu Xunxiang, who looked at the sky, decided to take a break and look for the direction to go back, but suddenly smelled a very faint bloody breath, Liu Xunxiang slowly squatted down, according to the experience of hunting beasts in the forest these days, there must be strange beasts hiding nearby.
Strange beasts are already a little wise, many strange beasts will ambush in the jungle near the death of other beasts, the bloody gas after the death of the beast will take the initiative to attract hungry beasts, so that you can save a lot of energy, in the first hunt for the beast can make Liu Xunxiang suffer a lot, if it weren't for the last moment why the beast lay on the ground softly, I'm afraid that Liu Xunxiang at that time would stare at the legs again.
Although she didn't know why the beast suddenly lay on the ground, Liu Xunxiang still felt that the gray mist in her body was related.
Liu Xunxiang slowly moved along the bloody ground along the blood, and not long ago he saw a bunch of beast shelves with only white bones left, and there were several corpse vultures standing on the white bones pecking.
The corpse vulture is an ominous representative in the mortal world, and the old people in the town used to say that they would be unlucky if they saw it, and Liu Xunxiang always kept it in mind, so Liu Xunxiang planned to take a detour to avoid it.
When he was about to leave, he found something pressed under the beast bones out of the corner of his eye, as if it was a cloth wrap, Liu Xunxiang hesitated, gritted his teeth and rushed up, not caring about the ominous situation that there might still be ambushes of spirit beasts and corpse vultures around, so frightened that a few corpse vultures fluttered several times and failed to fly.
Pick up the cloth wrap on the ground and open it to see, only to see a scroll of silk book inside, Liu Xunxiang unfolded the silk book, a column of small characters with a beautiful hairpin flower small block description, and the first column of the silk book is written with three words - "Qi Induction Chapter", Liu Xunxiang was suddenly pleasantly surprised, this silk book recorded is actually the practice of cultivating immortals.
Cultivating immortals is basically not exposed, generally as long as the monk is dead, the things on his body will be taken away, and Liu Xunxiang remembers that the monks seem to use jade slips to record things, why is there a silk book here.
It was still quiet, and there was no sound except for a few insects.
Liu Xunxiang didn't dare to stay here for too long, so she had to wrap the silk book in a cloth and stuff it into her arms, and then look around to see if there was nothing else and prepare to leave.
Rustle, rustle
There was a sound in the surrounding grass, slow paced, but particularly harsh in the silence of the jungle.
Liu Xunxiang slowly squatted down and picked up a stone, listened carefully, found the right position and threw the stone over.
"Hiss~"
A big snake with a body of dozens of miles and a red body immediately stood upright from the jungle, and a pair of snake eyes looked down at Liu Xunxiang coldly and ruthlessly.
The moment Liu Xunxiang saw the big snake come out, the blood in her whole body was about to coagulate, and her legs began to tremble uncontrollably.
"This... It's over, the old man didn't teach me how to catch snakes. Liu Xunxiang swallowed her saliva and muttered to herself.
Liu Xunxiang almost lost her strength and sat on the ground, if it was other giant beasts, Liu Xunxiang thought that she could still struggle, but for a creature like a snake, those eyes alone could make Liu Xunxiang cry in fright.
But the crimson snake seemed to be a little hesitant, although it stared at Liu Xunxiang, but did not attack, and Liu Xunxiang did not dare to run away casually, one person and one snake stared at each other with such big eyes.
Outside the Wangpan Mountain Range, several streamers were drawn from a distance, and the streamers stopped above the mountain range, revealing an old man and several young boys and girls.
"Uncle Shi, it seems that the evil beast has fled into this mountain range, and it seems that it is also heading for that place," a young man asked.
The old man looked into the depths of the mountain range, pondered for a long time, and said, "Chasing, if it's really for that kind of thing, you can just take it together." ”
"Yes. ”
With that, he rushed into the mountains with several teenagers and girls.
The crimson snake didn't know whether the patience was exhausted or what he had a premonition, and suddenly began to become very manic, and after the snake roared in the sky, it bit Liu Xunxiang on the ground like a flying sword, and looked straight to his bloody mouth, and the fishy smell in the snake's mouth came to his face, so that Liu Xunxiang almost didn't vomit.
Liu Xunxiang rolled over, Liu Xunxiang dodged the attack of the giant snake, the giant snake also seemed to be a little annoyed, the snake twisted its head, and chased Liu Xunxiang again.
Liu Xunxiang jumped on the big snake, the scales on the big snake were unusually smooth, one was unstable, and Liu Xunxiang was thrown down.
"Roar~"
Liu Xunxiang, who fell to the ground, roared like a beast.
This roar made the giant snake's body stagnate, but this stagnation was only less than a breath, and the giant snake immediately reacted, although it was less than a breath, but the giant snake still felt that it had been insulted, so it became more and more fierce, Liu Xunxiang was careless, and was swept by the giant snake's tail and hit the ground.
Seeing this, the serpent's head pounced again.
Liu Xunxiang didn't have time to think about it, so she retreated and began to run deep into the forest.
In this way, a man and a snake began to chase in the mountains.
"Your uncle, you're still chasing!"
Liu Xunxiang kept turning back while running, and when she saw that the big snake was still chasing after her, she couldn't help but scold angrily.
On the other side, the sloppy old man shook his head and returned to the cave, but saw the words left by Liu Xunxiang on the cave wall: "The mountains are moving, there are immortals, I'll go and see, the meat is roasted." ”
"Yo, the stinky boy is not small, the mountains are changing, and there are monks coming? The sloppy old man turned and walked outside.
One, two, three, the figure of the sloppy old man disappeared here.
If Liu Xunxiang saw it here, he would be shocked to drop his mouth, Liu Xunxiang had only seen such a mysterious immortal Taoism in the miscellaneous stories of the rivers and lakes, and was called by the world as the Taoist fusion world that only existed in legends, shrinking into inches.
There is a storyteller in the world: "One step out of the void, return without a trace, if he can get his way one day, he can cross the mountains and rivers a million weights." ”
