Volume 1: The Beginning of Cultivation Chapter 21: The Old Man Appears

Everyone has their own secrets, more or less, big or small, hidden in the depths of their hearts, like a tree rooted in the earth, absorbing the grief in their hearts, and then blooming into brilliant flowers......

Tongji has no interest in asking other people's secrets, he doesn't like to get to the bottom of things and annoy people. Qi Cheng didn't say it, he didn't listen to it, Qi Cheng was willing to say, and he didn't want to listen.

It's not an honorable thing to be an outcast, and it's not good to poke people's scars after all.

Tong Ji only needs to know that he can't ask for help from the Martial Law Lianhua Temple.

"Therefore, it is better to seek others than to seek yourself. Tongji pointed to the oil lamp, "Then you won't come?"

"Come!" Qi Cheng gritted his teeth, "When the prince comes back, you have to help me make it clear and ask him to add money to me!"

Wang Liang had a dream in which he dreamed of when he was young.

One day my mother was sick and depressed and listless all day. Wang Liang felt sorry for his mother, so he wanted to find a rare gadget to give to his mother to make her happy. But he searched for a long time, but he couldn't find anything satisfactory.

One day, a foreign merchant passed by and brought out a statue of Buddha made of jade. The color of the jade was extremely beautiful, Wang Liang liked it at first sight, and thought that giving this thing to his mother would definitely make her happy!

He happily took the Buddha statue and prepared to give it to his mother. But at that moment, Wang Liang felt a warm current rushing into his body, and then something in his body was released, along his mouth, nose, and pores. Wang Liang didn't know what it was, he just felt so tired, so sleepy, and wanted to sleep!

After that, Wang Liang fell ill. He was bedridden all day, looking haggard, looking too old, his consciousness was withdrawing from his body little by little, and he was getting weaker and weaker.

Wang Dashang ran around for the sake of the child, looking for precious medicinal materials to save him.

But that's where the dream becomes......

One day, Wang Dashang excitedly took back a basket of things and told Wang Liang on the bed that he had found the medicine to save him!

Wang Liang was also very happy, he looked at the basket, but he didn't expect that it was full of human hearts!

The living heart seems to be still beating, as if it has just been dug out of someone else's body!

Where did Wang Liang dare to eat, he shook his head in horror and refused, but Wang Dashang forced him to eat.

With a hideous face, his father forcibly pried his mouth open and shoved those hearts into his mouth one by one. Wang Liang wanted to stop it, but he was too weak, his father was in the prime of life, he was powerless to resist, and he felt that he couldn't hold on!

Struggling, Wang Liang saw Ah Fu coming over, Wang Liang beckoned to Ah Fu and asked him to save himself.

Ah Fu looked at Wang Liang with a pale expression, and said: "Childe, eat quickly, your illness will be cured after eating Childe! Isn't it enough?

Ah Fu said, grabbing his heart with one hand, he broke open his chest, and a fresh heart was dug out! Ah Fu ignored the blood hole in his heart, and took the heart with an expectant expression.

"Childe, eat quickly!"

Wang Liang looked away in fear, not wanting to see this, but his eyes inadvertently fell on his father's chest. There, there's a fist-sized hole that is bleeding! There's a heart missing from that hole!

"Ah!!h

Wang Liang screamed and woke up, he gasped and touched the cold sweat on his forehead, only to realize that he had a nightmare.

He was still here, a place surrounded by cold light. The father's wail continued, his voice tinged with pain and hideousness, like a scene in a dream, tormenting him all the time.

"Still can't do anything......"

Wang Liang tried to numb his heart so that he could look at his father's miserable situation with a cold eye.

But he is not a ruthless person at all, he is still alive, his heart is still beating, and Wang Liang is scolding himself in his heart. Scolding yourself for not being a thing! Scolding yourself for being a son of man in vain! Scolding yourself for why you don't die!

Wang Liang wanted to die, so that he would not have to face such a father.

But he couldn't die yet, he had other people to save, his mother, his sister, that demon could pull his loved ones into hell at any time.

Tong Ji said that he was Yu Cheng's only hope, and that if Wang Liang wanted to save his family, he had to bear his own fate!

He had to live, to live painfully......

Wang Liang thought and knelt on the ground, not daring to look at his father.

"Who's screaming, don't you know the old man is sleeping!"

A voice came from the darkness, with an unhappy tone, old but full of energy.

"If you can get out, see if I don't smoke him to death!"

There are still people trapped here!

Wang Liang hurriedly looked around, only to see that in the darkness, another light rose, and the figure of an old man appeared there. The man was dressed in tatters, holding a wine gourd in one hand, and lying on his side on the bed, looking like he was about to wake up.

"This evil obstacle, so many people have come in!" The old man saw Wang Dashang lying on the bed wailing, his face was ugly, "Fu Shou borrowed life! This evil obstacle is so cruel!"

This person knows that Fushou borrows life?!

Wang Liang seized the hope and hurriedly asked, "Senior, do you know that Fushou borrowed his life?!Then do you know how to save them?"

"I can't save it, let's die!" the old man shook the gourd unhappily, "There is no wine!"

"Senior!" Wang Liang pleaded, "Now Yu Cheng is in danger, just because of the evil art of Teng'an Fu! Since the senior knows this technique, please tell the senior how to cure it!"

The old man snorted and said, "If you don't say no, you won't, I taught him this spell, can I not know?"

"You taught him?" Wang Liang was stunned and subconsciously said, "You are the master of that beast?!"

"Brute, you're not wrong!" the old man continued, "the brute learned my spell and attacked me in turn, trapping me here. I don't know how long I've been trapped, and I won't even be able to drink!"

Wang Liang did not give up: "My father suffered all day because of this technique. As a son of man, I can't do anything! Please help me!"

The old man looked at Wang Dashang, and then looked at Wang Liang, feeling that there were really a few similarities, and he was curious for a while.

"What the hell is going on out there, how did you get caught by that brute?"

Wang Liang explained the matter succinctly, and the old man sighed after hearing it.

"I really didn't expect that beast to do this!" the old man looked at Wang Liang, and also felt that this person was pitiful, "Fushou borrowing life is actually not an evil spell, this spell was originally just borrowing the life of living beings for other purposes. When life is borrowed, it fills the void of the living soul with the blessing of longevity, so that it does not die.

Borrowing life and filling the void are complementary to each other, but the beast doesn't know the process of filling the void by forcibly withholding the things of longevity, so that the living beings die. When a living soul dies, the borrowed thing naturally does not have to be returned.

Life is the foundation of living beings, just like bones and flesh and blood. Will you suffer if you forcibly dig up your flesh? The pain of being stripped of your life is a hundred times worse than that of your flesh and blood! This has caused your father to be like this! Alas! This is all a bad fate!"
