Chapter 216: Elixir Harms People and Helps People

Sun Xu and the three of them saw that the fallen townsfolk had been pulled to the ground, but they did not immediately return to it, but walked along the road that led to the distance.

The underground is narrow and difficult to walk and pitch black, and if the three of them are not already ordinary human bodies, they must not be able to discern the direction.

After walking for a while, I saw an elegantly decorated small house in front of me.

Ah Shi looked at it as he walked, and said in surprise: "I didn't think that there would be such a place in this gloomy underground?"

"Yes, this house looks old, and it's still underground, who is here?"

When the three of them got closer, they shouted a few times outside the door, and when they saw that there was no answer in the house, they gently pushed the door and entered.

The décor in this room is very simple, just a few chairs and a bed. At this time, there was another figure on the bed.

The three of them took a closer look and found that the man on the couch was dressed plainly and covered in dust. Although his hair has turned gray, he looks like a middle-aged man on his face.

Ah Yi saw that this person was motionless, as if he had been dead for a long time, so he asked, "Xianggong, is this a master who has been sitting for many years?"

"He's not sitting down. Sun Xu said, pointing to the man's head and said, "Look closely, there is still someone on him, where is the appearance of a dead person?"

Ah Shi took two steps forward, looked at this person's clothes, and saw the dust around him, and turned back with some vigilance and asked: "Xianggong, this person's clothes and clothes are not owned by this dynasty, if he is not dead, he can still survive in such an environment, he will not be an inhuman demon, right?"

Sun Xu said with a smile: "Ayi, this person is an orthodox human race, I think he has had an adventure, so he can prolong his life so far." ”

While the three of them were talking, the man on the couch suddenly opened his eyes and sat up slowly, his body of dust falling down with his movements.

I saw that his eyes were clear, without a trace of confusion and fatigue, and he was not surprised to see Sun Xu and the others, but just asked: "Where are the three of you from? Why did you come to me?"

Sun Xu unhurriedly told the matter of the movement here, and the man listened to it and was silent. After a while, he asked Sun Xu about the current year name and dynasty of the three of them.

After learning the answer, the man sighed, "It seems that my doom has arrived!"

Seeing that he was not hostile, Ah Shi relieved his heart, and when he heard him say this, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Why did the gentleman say this? Isn't it a good thing that you were buried in the ground, but now you can see the light of day again? How can it be a catastrophe?"

The man shook his head and sighed, and talked about his past with Sun Xu and the others.

It turned out that this person's surname was Wu Mingjian, and he was a figure hundreds of years ago, when he was just an ordinary mortal living in a town near the dojo.

I don't know when, there was a rumor in the town that made everyone's blood boil.

It is rumored that the mountains and forests near the town have been subject to the sun and the moon for a long time, and there will be treasures, as long as they are obtained, they will definitely be able to live forever and become immortals.

So the townspeople looked around, and Wu Jian naturally followed.

It took a few days for everyone to climb the mountains and forests, and finally found two vines near a big rock, which looked very strange: more than three feet apart, the seedlings and vines intersected.

Everyone was overjoyed, and together they dug up the object and brought it back to the village. When they returned, they boiled the vine root in water and ate it.

Unexpectedly, on the night of that day, except for Wu Jian, the townspeople who drank the vine root water all turned into non-human monsters, lost their minds, and ran to the road to attack each other, Wu Jian was so frightened by that scene that he ran out of the town in chaos.

That vine root has grown for hundreds of years, and it already has a human form, and in a few days, it may really be able to turn into a living person, but Wu Jian and the others, as mortals, have cut off the path of enlightenment to others, and they will naturally be punished.

Wu Jian also knew that this must have been punished by God, but he somehow escaped a catastrophe.

Later, Wu Jian had nowhere to go, so he went to the rivers and lakes, and because of fate, he obtained a method of entering the Tao and cultivated by himself.

Because Wu Jian took the elixir, not only did his life increase greatly, but he also transformed his physique, and he achieved twice the result with half the effort in cultivating current affairs, and hundreds of years of hard work allowed him to accumulate enough Taoism. Later, he survived the thunder tribulation safely and reached the threshold of ascending to immortals.

It's just that he has been tribulating for many years, and he has not been able to attract immortal officials to cross him to the immortal realm. Without immortal status, even if he survived the thunderstorm, he is still a mortal, and he cannot get rid of the shackles of birth, old age, sickness and death.

And since the thunder tribulation, he has had a fatal sequelae, that is, he can't stay on the ground, otherwise he will accelerate aging. So he buried himself deep in the ground.

"It seems that the earth movement is a sign that my limit is approaching, and my death is near!" Wu Jian said, with some sadness on his face.

Sun Xu had a smile on his face at the moment, stroked his palms and laughed: "Okay, good!"

When Wu Jian heard this, his face immediately changed, and he said unhappily: "I haven't offended Your Excellency, why did you hear that I am going to die so happily!"

"I don't know if Mr. Wu knows why you have survived the thunder tribulation, but no one has come to pick you up and ascend to the immortal realm?" Sun Xu did not explain his rudeness, but asked Wu Jian another question.

Although Wu Jian was displeased, he knew that he was going to die, so there was no need to worry a lot about his juniors, and Sun Xu asked a question that he couldn't figure out, so he replied: "How can I know about the affairs of the immortal realm? Maybe it's because my cultivation is insufficient, or maybe it's because I'm too busy with the immortal officials, after all, how can immortals have so much free time in heaven and earth for a year?"

Sun Xu said with a smile: "No, no, it's not that the fairy world doesn't come to pick you up, but the fairy world has long been empty, how can I pick you up?"

Although Wu Jian has cultivated to the point of crossing the tribulation, he is a casual cultivator after all, and he doesn't know much about the outside world, so he naturally doesn't know about the great changes in the fairy world.

At this time, when he heard Sun Xu's words, his face was full of astonishment, and he muttered: "I see, I see, no wonder." After being stunned, he was even more lonely, and it seemed that he really couldn't survive this catastrophe.

However, after a long sigh, he quickly recovered, after all, it was not easy for him to live as a mortal for so long, so why bother to live forever?

Thinking of this, he shook his right hand, and a pamphlet and a few pills appeared out of thin air.

"Meeting is fate, and there is one thing to ask for. The old man has been practicing for a long time, and some of his experiences are recorded in this booklet. Several pills are used to promote Taoism, so I will give them to you together. Use it for yourselves, give it away or give it away, make your own decisions. Wu Jian handed these things to Sun Xu.

Sun Xu didn't answer, but asked, "Wu Jian, are you willing to go to hell, Yongzhen Yinsi?"
