After looking at it for a while, the old man finally reached out and picked up a black chess piece from the chess box in the corner of the table, and played it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I know you have a lot of questions for me, just say it, and I'll answer them all for you. ”

Ye Qiu, who had been waiting for a long time on the side, hurriedly wanted to speak when he heard this, indeed, there were too many doubts in his heart at the moment.

But when the words came to his lips, he suddenly asked out of nowhere.

After thinking for a while, Ye Qiu spoke: "Senior, I want to know if I am in a dream at the moment, and what is going on in the life I have experienced before. ”

The old man continued to look at the chessboard, and his voice floated over: "You are you at the moment, you think that it is real now, then it is real, real and illusory, how many people can tell the difference?"

Ye Qiu didn't seem to understand, but he was obviously not satisfied with this specious answer: "Please also ask the seniors to make it clear." ”

"Actually, both are real, it doesn't matter if it's a dream, it's just that the life you just experienced in the dream was virtualized by this stone bead. And who knows, at this moment, we are not in a bigger dream? The real and the unreal are just a thought. ”

"What the seniors mean is that I am the real at this moment, and the life in Yejia Village just now is just an illusion?"

"That's true. The old man said no more.

Ye Qiu couldn't help but feel a little confused, everything he had just experienced was really too real, he had really lived for more than sixty years, even his wife's face was still in front of his eyes, and his mind was instantly confused, he didn't know if he had a choice, whether he would like to choose that dream or his current life.

After a long while, Ye Qiu came back to his senses, and he seemed to have a little more understanding of life.

"Thank you seniors for your enlightenment, then I want to ask next, senior, who are you, why are you in this stone bead, and why did you save me. This is also the question that Ye Qiu has been asking when he woke up.

The old man did not answer immediately, but picked up a chess piece again and fell.

Then he slowly spoke: "Let's talk about why I want to save you first, in fact, it's not to save you, it's just that I just need to replenish my spiritual energy, and that ghost king is a very good tonic, so I can wake up." ”

"As for who I am and why I am in this stone bead, hehe, I will tell you these things slowly in the future. Okay, is there anything else to ask?"

Ye Qiu couldn't help but wonder for a while, "That senior, why is this stone bead in that snake's belly, and what is this stone bead, why did you say that the dream I experienced just now was made by this stone bead." ”

The old man turned his head and glanced at Ye Qiu, and smiled: "There are really a lot of problems with the little doll, but why did this stone bead appear in the belly of the snake you said, I really don't know, because I have just woken up." ”

said and sighed, "Alas, reality and illusion lie between a thought, who says no? I thought about how glorious the old man was back then, but I didn't expect that in the end, he was plotted by someone and died." ”

"If it weren't for the secret treasure that this old man got by chance back then, and retained a trace of my remnant soul, I'm afraid I would have been dead long ago. And for so many years, I have been in a deep sleep, until just now, suddenly Shi Zhu had a sense, let me wake up, just devouring the ghost king, although the energy is pitiful, but it should be able to sustain me for a while. ”

Listening to the old man's words, Ye Qiu's face was full of shock, he didn't expect that this old man turned out to be a wisp of remnant soul that had been dead for many years!

Ye Qiu really didn't find out, after coming in, he also observed this old man, but he couldn't see through it, everything was shrouded in a layer of fog, and Ye Qiu couldn't judge it at all.

"Okay, I've almost answered the question, you go, I'll call you again if there's something. ”

As soon as the old man's words fell, Ye Qiu felt that his divine thoughts had been strongly repulsed, and he directly came out of the stone bead and returned to reality.

Ye Qiu found that he was still in the wilderness, his body was not injured, and the various symptoms in his brain due to the overdraft of his divine thoughts had disappeared, and even Ye Qiu felt that his divine thoughts had grown a little stronger.

It seems that the sky is starting to light up at this time, and I can faintly see the things around me.

Ye Qiu didn't have the heart to continue looking for the Soul Rejuvenation Grass, he didn't know if there were other dangers in this valley, he just wanted to find the fat man to meet, and then hurry back to the sect.

After judging where he was at the moment and finding the right direction, Ye Qiu rushed directly to the place where he agreed to meet the fat man.

But actually on the way back, Ye Qiu found a place where the soul revival grass grows, there are more than 20 plants, of course, there is no ghost king this time, just a ghost spirit, after the first experience, Ye Qiu easily killed it, and then quickly finished picking the soul reviving grass and continued to hurry.

It was almost noon, and at last they arrived at the place where they had agreed to meet, and the fat man seemed to be waiting there early.

"Senior Brother Ye, you're back, I just arrived here. The fat man greeted Ye Qiu first.

"Yes, I didn't expect Senior Brother Ye to arrive one step earlier than me, I don't know how Senior Brother Night harvested?" Ye Qiu didn't plan to expose the lies of this fat man, looking at it, where did he just arrive, Ye Qiu even suspected that he slept here last night.

This fat man must have something to hide from himself.

"I've found thirteen Soul Rejuvenation Plants, I don't know how lucky my junior brother is?" said the fat man, taking the Soul Restoration Grass out of the storage bag.

Ye Qiu then took out the soul revival grass he found, and picked it twice before and after, a total of forty trees.

"I didn't expect Senior Brother Ye to be so lucky, it seems that the two of us have made a small fortune this time. The fat man said, as if remembering something.

"Hehe, Senior Brother Ye, I'm not satisfied with you, I'm lucky this time, I have a bit of an unexpected opportunity, and I should be able to break through the bottleneck of the seventh layer after I go back this time." ”

Ye Qiu thought, you are finally willing to tell the truth, you are looking for opportunities alone, but my life is almost gone, and I was miserable by you.

But his mouth sneered: "Really, brother, I congratulate Senior Brother Ye first, and I wish Senior Brother to break through to the eighth layer as soon as possible." ”

Of course, the fat man heard the sarcasm in Ye Qiu's words, in fact, he had something to hide from Ye Qiu from the beginning.

This mission in the Soul Valley, in fact, the last time he came with the others, that is, that time, he found a precious medicinal herb in a remote place in the west of the valley!

At that time, the three of them scattered to look for the Soul Rejuvenation Herb, and they also agreed to meet the next day like today, and then the herbs they found were divided equally.

So he was the only one who discovered it. But if he picked it at that time, then he would definitely not be able to swallow this herb privately, knowing that the pills and herbs that can break through the bottleneck will always be in short supply.

So at that time, he didn't pick it, but wrote down the location and waited for the next time.

But if he comes back alone, it may arouse the suspicion of the other two people, so he wants to find someone to go with him to cover up his purpose, and this person's cultivation cannot be stronger than his own, so he can rest assured.

Ye Qiu was in the mission hall at that time, and it was exactly what he wanted, so he instigated Ye Qiu to come to the Soul Valley together.

In fact, he knew that there might be higher-level ghosts in this Soul Valley, and it was difficult for a disciple of the fourth level of Qi cultivation to protect himself, but there was no way, he couldn't manage so much.

Originally, he planned to wait until the afternoon, if Ye Qiu had not arrived at the meeting point, he would go back alone, but he didn't expect that Ye Qiu really survived, and he actually found so many soul rejuvenation grasses, he knew that this Senior Brother Ye was not as simple as he thought.

The fat man's brain spun around a lot, as if he had made some decision, gritted his teeth and said:

"Senior brother, originally we discussed that the soul reviving grass we found was half of one person, but the senior brother left you alone, it was me who was wrong, fortunately, junior brother, you have great skills, there were no accidents, so let's do it, the soul rejuvenation grass you found this time belongs to you, and the dozen or so grasses that the senior brother found were also given to you, so it should be regarded as the senior brother who compensated you. ”

Ye Qiu didn't say anything more, but accepted it, but he calculated in his heart that he would never have anything to do with this fat man in the future.

The two of them divided their things, then returned to the valley, sat on the birds, and flew towards the sect.
