Chapter 35: Rumors
Life expectancy is a life and death problem that every monk has to face, because the monk has a keen sense and can clearly grasp the limit of his lifespan, whenever in the dead of night, when he is alone and silent, the experience of feeling his own death bit by bit can simply drive a person crazy, so for most monks, cultivating immortals is not only for some lofty ideals, but just to get rid of this feeling of death.
Therefore, for Zhang Zhiping, this extra hundred years of life is simply more precious than any precious treasure, although his current cultivation has been smooth, but for immortal cultivators, it is not surprising that a bottleneck card lasts for tens or hundreds of years, and sometimes it is not unheard of that it is not unheard of to break through after only extending his life span for a few years.
With a wave of his hand, he put away all the Dan bottles, although these consumption is not small, but for Zhang Zhiping now, it can only be regarded as a drizzle, which shows how rich his harvest is in the ruins this time. Zhang Zhiping adjusted his state, and he couldn't wait to get out, and he stayed underground for 20 years and didn't come out, but he was suffocated.
Well, this forest is not badly developed. After Zhang Zhiping walked out of the underground palace, he immediately discovered the great changes in the Lin Mansion, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, twenty years ago, in order to prevent the Lin Mansion from being ruined, he provided a lot of help to Lin Yuan, and now it seems that he has not wasted it, such a large mansion, it is easy to hide a person's traces.
But that's all, Zhang Zhiping swept his mind, and he mastered most of the situation in the mansion, and he didn't look for Lin Yuan's intention, he casually cast a lost mind technique, and walked around the garden in the mansion, and met many guards and maids along the way, but he didn't find any trace of him.
While admiring the scenery in the garden, Zhang Zhiping was also thinking about the matter of the Great Ri Sect, in a flash of twenty years, the original limelight should have passed, after all, it was only a few true disciples who died, the Great Ri Sect would not spend much energy to search, but would only keep it firmly down, but if there was a trace of it, it would attract hunting and killing, and he was very familiar with the practices of these forces.
I just don't know what Wu Yong's situation is? Compared with himself who has been hiding in the shadows, Wu Yong can be regarded as showing his face, if he doesn't pay attention to it, he may die in the hands of the Great Day Sect, I just hope that he will be clever and hide after leaving the ruins, after all, the two came together at the beginning, and he didn't want Wu Yong to die overseas.
Forget it, don't worry about it yet. Zhang Zhiping knew that these things could only be learned in the immortal cultivation realm, so he put these things aside for the time being and relaxed for a few days. Although the atmosphere of red dust among mortals is very heavy, but it is indeed very lively, Zhang Zhiping is not the kind of person who only streaks at shortcomings, and deliberately ignores it, the love, hatred, hatred, and strange things in mortals are much more interesting than those in the world of cultivating immortals.
Walking in the fishing forest city with relish, the bustling crowd, the bustling and lively street market, the rows of shops, and the noisy sound made Zhang Zhiping suddenly become energetic, which is also the reason why many immortal cultivators are willing to come to the mortal city occasionally, there is still a relatively little less human flavor in the immortal city, after all, immortal cultivators are still human, and occasionally return to human nature, so that they can be more truly aware of their lives in the world.
I walked into a restaurant at random and opened a private room, and after sending out the enthusiastic shopkeeper, I cleaned it up again, and then I took out a pot of spiritual tea and lay down on the rocking chair leisurely to listen, I haven't been to the mortal city for a long time, and this feeling is really nostalgic. At this time, the storyteller below is telling a story about the immortal demon extermination, which is lifelike, wonderful and rich, as if he had seen it in person, and even Zhang Zhiping couldn't help but secretly applaud.
Human imagination can break through the sky, although the immortal cultivators are well-informed, but they may not be able to do all the things they imagine, sometimes what they have experienced is really not as wonderful as what others say, at least now this storyteller said that he can't do what he says about dividing the sea with a sword, worshipping ten thousand beasts, etc.
Therefore, Zhang Zhiping listened to the storyteller's story with great interest, and when he heard the benefits, he even rewarded him with an ingot of snowflake silver, which attracted more than attention. The storyteller became interested as he spoke, and told a story about the dragon girl saving people.
I saw this storyteller shake the folding fan with his left hand, and slapped the shocking wood with his right hand, and said: "The fairy road is far away, mortals are hard to find, and I am used to telling the stories of those immortals who kill demons and demons. ”
When the guest officer below heard this, he coaxed again and again: "Old man Qin, what is there to say about this mortal matter? Let's talk about the immortal war." ”
Old man Qin didn't refute when he heard this, took a sip of tea and continued to tell his story unhurriedly: "The discerning eye predicts the weather and rain, and the compassion heals every illness and sorrow. The dragon girl I am talking about, named Lin Mo Niang, was born with a red light from the northwest, dazzling, shining all over the islands, everyone at the time thought it was strange, thinking that there was a great virtuous person who came into the world. ”
Looking at everyone's disapproving looks, Old Man Qin paused, and continued: "Since this Mo Niang grew up, she has a beautiful appearance and moon appearance, amazing learning, insight into astronomical meteorology, familiar with water-based dark tides, and can predict the blame. ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but raise their spirits, they are all people who often go to sea, they naturally know how rare this is, the storm at sea is unpredictable, I don't know how many people pray to God before going to sea in the hope that they will not encounter the storm, if this woman can do this, it is really a great ability overseas, and even some immortal cultivators may not be able to do this.
However, the man who spoke at first was still a little unconvinced, and said, "This is not a skill, some old fishermen can do this!" That being said, he also knew that those old fishermen could not be so accurate, otherwise so many people would not die in the storm every year.
Old man Qin didn't care when he heard this, looked at the people who had already cheered up, and said: "In terms of ability, this is naturally nothing, but this Lin Mo Niang is really a bodhisattva, at the age of eighteen, she is determined to do good things for the rest of her life, and she is determined not to marry, since then, every time before the storm comes, she will personally go to sea to see if there are still ships floating on the sea, and warn them to return, over the years, I don't know how many people have been saved by it!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately admired it, once there is a storm overseas, it is often the ship that is wrecked and people die, and few people survive, if this Lin Mo Niang can really do this, it is really a good deed, such a character is really admirable, so they were very interested for a while, and pestered the old man Qin to talk about the specific deeds of this Lin Mo Niang.
Seeing that everyone had finally been interested, Old Man Qin secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then patted the shocked wood and said, "You say, such a character, should I talk about it, old man, praise it?!"
Everyone nodded again and again when they heard this, and even the person who refuted at the beginning also died down, listening to Old Man Qin talk about Lin Mo Niang's deeds in a colorful voice.
Zhang Zhiping listened to a paragraph, and admired this Lin Mo Niang in his heart, although this kind of thing sounds like a fairy tale, but there is indeed no shortage of virtuous people in the world who are willing to dedicate their lives to others, although he asked himself that he could not do it so far, but he would also maintain a certain respect for this kind of person with persistence.
After that, Zhang Zhiping wandered around the fishing forest city for a few days, relieved the boredom in his heart, and began to carry out the next stage of cultivation energetically.
