Chapter 3 Crossing the World
Mountains behind Ishimura.
A young man sat cross-legged, facing the place where the morning sun rose, his eyes closed, although he was a teenager, his eyebrows were full of heroism, revealing perseverance.
"The village chief's grandfather said that when the sun first rises, all things first wake up, and it is the time when the yang energy of heaven and earth is the strongest, and there is great benefit to practicing at this time. ”
"Introducing the qi of all things into the body to strengthen the muscles and bones, invigorate the blood and practice the pulse, and improve the physique of cultivation will lay the foundation for recognizing, understanding, and casting the Dharma in the future, so as not to fall behind. ”
Yao Yi in meditation thought silently in his heart.
At this moment, the east is white, the sun is slowly rising, driving the dark night of the mountains, a ray of morning light shines on Yao Yi's young face, and also shines in this deep mountain, illuminates the quaint stone village, and illuminates the children in the village.
There are children who go to the teacher's house with books to learn to read, farmers who walk to the fields, and hunters who go to the village chief to put down some
The meat that strengthens the body and bones, it is for Yao Yi, and then he turned around and walked towards the mountains to hunt.
Yao Yi, who was high in the back mountain, slowly closed his eyes when he saw all this, with a satisfied and happy smile on his face, this is Shicun, it is the home of his soul, every elder here is his parents, and every child is his brother and sister.
Although I heard from the people in the village that he was picked up from outside by the village chief's grandfather, he had no parents and no home, but Yao Yi knew that he had Shicun, where there was a kind village chief grandfather, there was Grandpa Li, there was an old smoker grandfather, and Aunt Li, there was Yunyun, all of which he wanted to protect.
He had grown up and knew some of the secrets of the village, and the village chief's grandfather had told him that there would be some powerful monsters in the depths of the mountains that would attack the villagers and destroy the crops.
All this is silently guarded by the village chief's grandfather, and in the future, all this will also be guarded by him Yao Yi, every village chief in Shicun has gone out of the mountains to study, learn the immortal method, and finally return to Shicun to protect the village.
If someone here looks closely, they will find that Yao Yi's eyes emitted a faint purple light, and then this purple light seemed to swim all over his body.
Somewhere in the mountains, Grandpa Li is leading a group of young and strong villagers to ambush a wild beast, which is a running elk that is about the size of an adult.
"This elk must be killed today," Grandpa Li said to the man next to him, who was Uncle Li, Yunyun's father.
"Father, this elk is too vigilant, we haven't been ambushed for several days," Uncle Li said in a low voice, frowning.
"It is difficult to hunt and kill, this elk antler, the village chief wants to boil medicinal food for Xiao Yi, the child is nourishing, Xiao Yi is now the time to grow his body, the village chief said that he will give Xiao Yi more precious beast treasures, Fen essence," Grandpa Li said.
At this time, a yellowish elk was walking into the trap made by Grandpa Li and others, there was a bunch of ginseng, and under the ginseng was the deep pit dug by Grandpa Li and others, as long as the elk walked in, it would definitely fall into the pit.
The elk was very alert and observed for a long time, but finally could not resist the temptation of ginseng, and slowly walked towards the ginseng pile, and as soon as he approached, he found that the leafy place under his feet was empty.
Immediately found that it was a trap and wanted to kick his legs and run out, but with a force, the thin layer of leaves actually sank, and the elk fell directly into the deep pit below.
"Haha, labor and management have finally caught you brute," came Grandpa Li's loud laughter.
But before the laughter passed, I saw that the elk kicked its leg violently and jumped out of the pit directly.
"Oh no, this beast is going to jump away. ”
"Bow and arrow, throw a gun," Grandpa Li is a veteran of hunting, and he reacted more at the first time, only to see bows and arrows, and throw guns in unison.
"This beast has too much strength and jumps too fast, and it can't be aimed at all," Uncle Li said hurriedly.
The elk had already jumped out of the pit and was about to jump into the woods for the second time, but once in the woods, everyone's efforts were in vain.
"Put the wooden thorns," Grandpa Li commanded urgently in a panic.
I saw that above the elk, full of sharpened wooden thorns fell down violently, and the elk saw that the situation was not good, and rushed forward, and finally the wooden thorns only scratched the elk's hind legs and fled into the woods.
"This brute, I still let it run away," Grandpa Li said angrily.
At the same time, he punched the tree angrily, everyone knew that if they missed this opportunity, they would almost not be able to kill this elk next time, although there were many wild beasts in the mountains, but there were very few as precious as elk.
"Grandpa Li, are you all right?" came a greeting with a slight smile when everyone was annoyed.
"Huh?" Grandpa Li didn't react and said, "It's Xiao Yi's child's voice."
Everyone searched for it, it was Xiao Yao Yi who had finished his practice, and they saw him sitting on the body of an elk, which was the same elk that had just escaped, at this time the elk had lost its breath and was completely dead, and was shot through the skull by a sharp arrow with a steel head.
The big men were very surprised, although they heard that Xiao Yi was learning the art of immortals with the village chief, but they didn't expect that the young Yao Yi had such great strength, and the sharp arrow he shot could shoot through the skull of an elk.
Everyone gathered around Yao Yi who was sitting on the elk carcass, "Good boy," Grandpa Li Lao Huai said with relief: "Xiao Yi, yes, he is more powerful than these uncles and uncles." ”
"Good boy, we have a hunting expert in Ishimura. ”
"Haha, yes, it seems that we will wait in Shicun in the future, waiting for Xiao Yi to bring us meat. ”
"This kid, this one looks like he has strong arms," everyone teased at Xiao Yao Yi.
Xiao Yao Yi spared his head a little shyly and said: "It's all the credit of uncles and uncles, this elk was so scared just now that he couldn't use his legs and feet, so he let me shoot." ”
Everyone laughed again, and the villagers regarded Xiao Yao Yi as their own child, and every family had nurtured Yao Yi.
Although Yao Yi is young, he remembers a lot of things, the breast milk he drank was half of the rhyme that Aunt Li shared, the clothes on his body were sewn by Aunt Li with stitches and threads, and Grandpa Bamboo, who taught him to read and write.
Every time I think of my parents, every warm picture of Ishimura will emerge.
With Grandpa Li's greeting, everyone lifted the elk, and today's harvest was very large, because this elk was full of treasures, and everyone walked towards Shicun with a smile.
And Xiao Yao Yi said goodbye to everyone and walked to the mountain alone, when he came out of the mountain, Xiao Yao Yi carried a big package, and then walked to Shicun with an innocent smile.
When night falls, the villagers who are working outside the village return to their homes and find that the game, mushrooms, fruits, and wild vegetables from the mountains are placed on the door, yard, or table.
"Hehe, Xiao Yi, this kid has gone to the mountains again," someone said with relief, with a worried tone.
"This little monkey has climbed the wall and come in again," someone laughed and scolded.
"It's still this kid who is filial, and I know that the old smoker likes to eat wild fruits in the mountains," an old man smiled.
The laughter and laughter of the villagers came from the quiet and peaceful stone village, and the stone village at night was covered with a thick screen under the illumination of the night.
At this time, Xiao Yao Yi was sitting cross-legged next to the tobacco garden of the old smoker grandfather, guarding his tobacco garden, because at night some wild beasts, such as wild boars, would come to destroy the crops in the villagers' fields.
"Old smoker grandpa, his legs and feet are not good, I have to help him take care of the tobacco garden," Xiao Yao Yi got up and climbed to a big tree, so that he could see farther and more clearly, plus the transformation of his eyes by the sun-watching technique, his eyes were sharp, more than several times better than ordinary people.
"Ahem, Xiao Yi, I secretly came to help the old smoker grandfather look at the garden, and come to eat some bacon marinated by the old smoker grandfather himself," the old smoker grandfather laughed in the distance.
Yao Yi fixed his eyes and found the old smoker grandfather standing in one place, and the moonlight illuminated it, which made the old smoker grandfather look a little sacred.
"Old Smoker Grandpa, why are you here," Xiao Yao Yi replied to Grandpa Old Smoker, jumping off the tree and walking towards Old Smoker.
Xiao Yao Yi ate the bacon brought by the old smoker grandfather, and felt hot all over his body, so he asked: "Old smoker grandfather, what kind of meat is this, how do you feel hot, and I feel that I have endless strength." ”
"Hehe, this is the old smoker's grandfather's special bacon, others can't eat it if they want to," the old smoker's grandfather was a little proud, and then he took out a wine bag and said:
"To eat the meat of the old smoker's grandfather, you have to drink the old smoker's grandfather's wine, which is enough to taste. ”
Xiao Yao Yi took a drink and drank it, felt a lot of energy, entered his body, and then felt nothing, and didn't care.
"Grandpa the old smoker's wine is so delicious," Yao Yi said with a grin.
"Count you kid knowing the goods," the old smoker grandfather scolded with a smile: "You help the old smoker grandfather look at the tobacco garden, and the old smoker grandfather wants to thank you." ”
"Look at you running in the mountains every day, the old smoker grandpa taught you some ways to improve your foot strength, do you want to learn?"
The old smoker grandfather smiled and stroked his goatee.
Yao Yi didn't know why, but he was the most studious age, so he agreed without thinking about it.
The old smoker leaned on his thin body, lit seven zigzag marks on the ground and said, "Step on all seven marks in order." ”
Yao Yi nodded yes, walked the seven small points with twists and turns, and walked crookedly, almost losing his center of gravity and about to fall.
"How does it feel?" the old smoker asked, "I feel unsteady walking, I'm going to fall, my waist hurts a little, my head is a little dizzy," Yao Yi wondered.
"That's right, you practice hard, the old smoker is sleepy," the old smoker said with a smile, turned and left.
"Old smoker grandpa, what's the name of this footwork?"
"Crossing the world, remember that the Fa is not passed on to the six ears, and no one is allowed to tell you," the old smoker replied without replying.
"What a strange name, I know the old smoker grandfather," Xiao Yao Yi nodded yes, and then walked on the seven marks.
