vs 38 I listened all night
Tu Zhen has a delicate heart, sees through the appearance, and points straight to the heart, she knows that Zhou Ji Zhenren is not just a doppelganger, he is a projection of Wei Seventeen's nature, a more pure self, the person who brought her into this world, mixed with a lot of contradictory superfluous things, Zhou Ji is different, by his side, she feels an instinctive relaxation and cordiality.
Zhou Ji walked around aimlessly with heavy steps, ignoring Tu Zhen, as if there was no such a lovely person following him. Xianling Island is one of the seven main islands of Bilian Small Realm, covering an extremely wide area, like a small piece of land, mountains and rivers, fish, insects, birds and beasts, bathed in the vitality of early spring. After walking for half an hour, he stopped panting, sat down in the shade of a tree, leaned cautiously against the trunk, squinted his eyes at the rolling mountains, and fell asleep with his head drooped.
The mountains and forests were silent, the light and shadow moved quietly, and suddenly several big birds were startled, hula flapped their wings, Zhou Ji woke up suddenly, turned his head and looked at it blankly, and slowly sobered up. He felt his mouth dry, listened for a moment, followed the sound of the murmuring water, found a clear mountain stream not far away, and meandered to the east, he lay down on the pebbles on the shore, pouted his buttocks, drank a belly of water, washed his face, and let out a long breath.
Tu Zhen stood in the shade of a tree, staring intently at his every move, his heart full of curiosity.
After a sleep, Zhou Ji cheered up, picked up a few pebbles, knocked them into each other, picked out a few pieces of broken pieces, and polished them on the reef, with a slight appearance of a stone axe, and waved it a few times in his hand, seemingly quite satisfied. He straightened up, thumped his sore back, and walked slowly into the woods, picking at a small tree the thickness of his wrist, cutting a circle of holes from the roots, breaking it with all his might, and dragging it into a clearing, where it was piled up in a mess.
The twilight was vast, the jade rabbit was rising in the east, the light in the mountains and forests was dim, Zhou Ji dropped the rough stone axe, went to the mountain stream to wash his hands, tired for a long time, his limbs were sore, and his stomach was so hungry that he gurgled and screamed. He touched his body all over the place, under the empty robe, there was only a body of fat, and he couldn't find anything, so he could only swallow his saliva, look around, there was nothing to eat, he could only tie the hem of the robe around his waist, trembling into the mountain stream, one foot deep and one shallow, folded a few lotus canopies in his arms, and returned to the shore by moonlight.
He peeled out the lotus seeds, did not remove the core, threw them into his mouth and chewed them a few times, swallowed them with his neck straight, and lay listlessly under the tree, his head resting on the roots, and snoring loudly in a moment. Tu Zhen couldn't understand it, this doppelganger, obviously having the cultivation of the Cave Heaven Realm, why didn't he have the slightest magical power, just like a rich man with a lot of money, he couldn't take out a penny to save the emergency. Dong Tianzhen people, shouldn't they suck the wind and drink the dew, and live forever, no matter how poor they are, they won't starve like an ordinary person.
The snoring was intermittent, sometimes soft, and she listened to it all night, and thought about it all night.
In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Ji woke up from his sleep, stretched his waist, turned over and climbed up, was blown by the cool breeze, and sneezed more than a dozen times in a row. He rubbed the eye droppings from the corners of his eyes, woke up his nose vigorously, wiped his snot on the trunk of the tree, wiped his face by the mountain stream, rinsed his mouth, and suddenly saw the fish swimming in the water, and for a while even his eyes were straight, and he hurriedly broke a branch, and poked it clumsily, but where did it hit.
Tu Zhen couldn't look at it, and with a flick of his fingers, a white fish weighing three or four catties rushed forward, hit his head on a branch, and tied a knot, Zhou Ji was startled, caught off guard, and almost threw his hand. He stepped ashore with a white fish, smiled at Tu Zhen, and said, "Eat together?"
Tu Zhen shook his head, jumped lightly onto the treetops, picked a few sweet and sour wild fruits to eat and play, and threw a few to him. Zhou Ji swallowed the white fish alive, picked up the wild fruit, wiped it on the robe, and ate it in two bites. He dug a pit in the ground, buried the fish head, bones, peel and core in the soil, stepped on it, moved his muscles and bones, and with all his might, he used his stone axe to deal with the little tree he had cut down yesterday.
He stripped off the side branches, peeled off the bark, picked out a straight and sturdy trunk, sharpened one end with a stone axe, and plunged it into the earth, which was very deep into the earth, and served as a pillar on the surface, two short and two long and two short, the short one about touching his jaw, and the long one stretched out enough to reach his hand. Zhou Ji cut more than a dozen long and short tree trunks, tied them to the pillars with bark, and had a bit of appearance, and Tu Zhen saw that he seemed to be building an earthen house to protect him from the wind and rain with his bare hands.
Zhou Ji was busy for a day, only set up a frame with empty walls, and looked at the sunset, he seemed to remember something, and hurriedly threw away the work in his hand, and carried the branches to the mountain stream to fork fish. This time, Tu Zhen watched coldly and did not help, Zhou Ji walked a few steps, poked a few times, and poked until the twilight was deep and he couldn't see the shadow of the swimming fish, so he gave up his efforts in frustration, and continued to fold a few lotus pods and chew lotus seeds.
When the bright moon hung in the treetops, and the snoring echoed in the mountains and forests, Tu Zhen suddenly frowned, she vaguely felt that the true yuan in Zhou Ji's body seemed to be a little thicker, if it weren't for her keen senses, she would have to let it go gently. Obviously, he has never cultivated, but only drank water, ate, slept, cut down trees, built houses, day and night, why did he cultivate so diligently? I heard that those heavenly demons who inherited the ancient bloodline, there is no need for penance, as long as they eat and sleep, sleep and eat, they can naturally become immortal powerhouses, could it be that Zhou Ji is also such a genius?
She was answered by bursts of earth-shattering snoring.
I don't know how long it took, the snoring subsided, Zhou Ji twitched his nose, as if he smelled the tempting aroma, and his stomach gurgled more and more. He couldn't sleep anymore, so he crawled up and talked in a daze, but he saw this banana leaf covered with a scorched roasted fish on the grass not far away, and a few dew-stained wild fruits beside it, which made people's appetite move.
Zhou Ji looked around, didn't notice Tu Zhen's figure, and was not hypocritical at the moment, swept away the fish and fruits, dug a pit and buried the fish bone and fruit core as usual, patted his belly and laughed a few times. Looking up at the sky, it was gloomy and it seemed to be raining, so he hurriedly cut down a few thinner branches and put them on the sloping roof, tied them with bark, and went to the forest to cut down a lot of palm leaves, and spread them layer by layer, piled them up so thick that they could barely cover the rain.
The sky was cloudy to the afternoon, and finally I couldn't bear it anymore, and the rain began to fall in the mountains, and it became bigger and bigger, and it was white and vast a few feet away. Zhou Ji hid under the shed, secretly glad that his hands and feet were nimble, otherwise, he would be drenched in soup. A few drops of rain fell on his head and neck, he moved a position, listened to the sound of the rain, and was content, the true yuan in his body surged, doing what he did, stopping what he did, and getting the essence of "human law and earth, earth law and heaven, heaven law and Tao, and Tao law and nature".
Tu Zhen looked at him from afar, and there was a hint of realization in his heart.
