Chapter 7: Cultivators
After half a ring, Chu Qinghe snuggled on the young man's shoulder, although his face was still pale, his expression was much better, and the nerves that had been tense finally relaxed.
Chu Qinghe let out a long sigh and smiled sadly: "Has my poison been cured?"
Li Mutian said softly: "It's okay, but after you go back, you have to cultivate for a while." ”
Chu Qinghe's heart was relieved, and at this moment, her gaze at Li Mutian had softened a lot.
As far as the eye could see, there was a smear of black and purple blood hanging from the corner of the young man's mouth, and his originally ruddy face had become extremely pale, and at this time he leaned against the stone wall at the edge of the cave, and his listless appearance was sad.
Chu Qinghe is not a dull person, he knows in his heart that he must have misunderstood him just now, after all, he has never known him, he has been helping himself since he jumped on the ancient tree, if he really has bad intentions, with his transcendent strength, he doesn't have to hide it so much, he can do it wantonly.
She wanted to say sorry to the boy, but because she hadn't said this since she was a child, she swallowed it back when it came to her mouth, and asked lightly with concern in her tone, "Are you okay then?"
Li Mutian's heart warmed: "A little snake venom can't help me." ”
Hearing that the young man was fine, Chu Qinghe was relieved and smiled, but he seemed to think of something, and looked at Li Mutian with a nervous look on his face:
"Since the big snake is chasing after her, isn't it Sister Yihan...... She ......"
Hearing this, Li Mutian secretly thought to himself: Since Miss Chu has the python saliva on her body, the same is true for Miss Yihan, so she is more than lucky. But this matter still can't be told to Miss Chu, after all, she hasn't fully recovered her mind at the moment.
Li Mutian barely squeezed out a smile: "There are many caves and ancient trees in Kunwu Mountain, Miss Yihan should hide somewhere, and then we will look for her when we go out, and it is still unknown whether we can escape." ”
Hearing this, Chu Qinghe thought for a moment, felt quite reasonable, and was relieved: "Sister Yihan is very powerful, not so easy to die." ”
"What is this place? Will the serpent find it?"
Li Mutian raised his eyebrows: "Don't worry, this was once the cave where the predecessors of the Quanzhen Sect Wang Chongyang cultivated, on top of an extremely hidden cliff, the giant python couldn't climb up, and there were ancient pine trees outside to cover the entrance of the cave." ”
"Wang Chongyang's Cave Mansion, is this the legendary Yanxia Cave?" Chu Qinghe then asked.
Obviously, for the famous Wang Chongyang in history, even Chu Qinghe has heard of it.
Li Mutian shook his head: "No, Yanxia Cave is made by natural creation, the mountains and rivers are beautiful and full of spiritual energy, and it is in the northwest corner of Kunyu Mountain." This is the place of cultivation opened up by Wang Chongyang's predecessors in his later years, and he has been in retreat here for ten years. Here, the descendants named it Xiantian Cave. ”
Chu Qinghe didn't seem to be interested in the innate cave, and the words changed: "You are so powerful, you should be a cultivator, right?"
Li Mutian was a little surprised: "Do you know the cultivator?"
Cultivators are not known to the secular world, at least the vast majority of people do not know about the existence of cultivators, but they just regard some unexplained things as myths and legends of demons and monsters.
However, the figures at the top of the pyramid in the secular world knew about the existence of the cultivators, and even had inextricable secret contacts with the cultivators.
Chu Qinghe smiled: "It was Sister Yihan who told me, her master is a cultivator, but her master only taught her when she was young, and then disappeared inexplicably." ”
"Can you cultivators really fly to the sky and open mountains and crack rocks?"
Li Mutian shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You are talking about the immortal cultivators in myths and legends, and modern cultivators do not have that kind of strength." ”
Chu Qinghe's curiosity was overflowing, and he continued to ask: "Then can you live forever?"
Li Mutian shook his head again: "Naturally, it can't, even those ancient immortal cultivators still can't resist the natural laws of birth, old age, sickness and death in the end, let alone the current cultivators!"
Chu Qinghe smiled: "Then what's the meaning of the so-called cultivation of the true cultivation Dao, and you can't live forever, you have to cultivate hard, isn't that very boring?"
Li Mutian resolutely retorted: "How can it be boring? People live in the world, nothing more than life and freedom, and the rest are floating clouds. If you were given two choices, one was to work hard and have wealth that was difficult for ordinary people to reach, with a lifespan of only 70 years, and the other was to have a force beyond ordinary people, to have unimaginable freedom, and to have a lifespan of more than 100 years or even longer, how would you choose?"
"Naturally, I chose the second one. ”
As soon as Li Mutian's voice fell, the girl didn't think about it, and made a choice naturally.
After finishing speaking, even Chu Qinghe himself was shocked, and secretly thought to himself: Indeed, no matter how rich he is, he will eventually die, and everything will turn into smoke, and although a cultivator cannot live forever, but with strong force, he can enjoy the freedom that ordinary people can hope for, and it will exist for a longer time, isn't this the real pursuit of people?
Li Mutian got the answer he wanted, and smiled slightly: "In today's technologically advanced world, ordinary people don't know that there are cultivators in this world. People in the world are no longer committed to the cultivation of the body, but are pursuing wealth by any means. ”
"And I don't know that all this is floating clouds, originally the theoretical lifespan of human beings should be a hundred years, or even higher in the ancient world of cultivating immortals, but in this red world, people can only live for more than seventy years, so it is not yet known whether human development science and technology have progressed or regressed. ”
Chu Qinghe was a little puzzled: "Could it be that everyone can cultivate the true cultivation path and become a true cultivator?"
Li Mutian pondered for a moment and scratched his head: "No, it is not easy to become a cultivator, if you want to become a cultivator, you must have a spiritual vein in your body, and the number of spiritual veins awakened also determines the strength of a cultivator." ”
"Even the nine great families of the cultivation realm have many mortals, and they don't have the talent to become cultivators, because the threshold for becoming a cultivator is extremely high. ”
Chu Qinghe then asked, "Then your talent should be extremely high, right?"
"I am a single-attribute Thunder Spirit Vein, if I was in the Ancient Immortal Cultivation Realm, I might be able to say that I had extraordinary qualifications, but now because I can't cultivate to the advanced realm, this talent is like a chicken rib. ”
After Li Mutian finished speaking, his face was a little gloomy, and he remembered the expression of the elders in the clan who sighed when they knew that he was a single-attribute thunder spirit vein.
Chu Qinghe didn't seem to understand, and her face was puzzled, but she didn't continue to ask, but sighed:
"That's why not everyone can become a cultivator at any time, and I've been weak and sick since I was a child, and I'm a mortal with no talent. ”
Li Mutian was about to open his mouth to comfort the girl in front of him, but the girl suddenly shivered, and said in a coquettish voice: "It's so cold!"
The weather at night is always changing, especially in the middle of the mountains, when the temperature plummets and the icy mountain breeze comes from outside the cave......
Chu Qinghe was originally weak, first chased by the thousand-year-old python, then stunned by Li Mutian, and injured by a poisonous snake, repeated blows, even ordinary people are unbearable, let alone her.
Chu Qinghe's face was pale and bloodless, his delicate body was constantly trembling, his eyes were foggy, and he would faint at any time......
Li Mutian didn't say anything, just took the girl into his arms with one arm, at first Chu Qinghe struggled slightly, but in this cold night, the warm current emanating from the young man's body was irresistible.
After a cup of tea, the two hugged each other and fell asleep.
