Chapter 2 Immortal Cultivators and Jin Wuwei
As soon as the secret door was closed, two more customers came to the shop, an old man in a white robe and a young boy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Is it a guest?" said the shopkeeper as usual.
"Ahem.," the old man coughed a few times, and replied, "Yes." ”
"But... Yu Zifu, the dean of the Kuzen Temple?"
"It's down there. The old man hugged his fist.
This person is the dean who took over Gu Cheng back then, Yu Zifu. And the boy standing beside him was a child who had just been admitted to the dry temple.
"Senior, I'm here to buy a radio compass. Yu Zifu saluted.
This shop can be maintained on Kuchan Street for many years, and it is a large family, which shows that the shopkeeper is by no means an ordinary person, even if Yu Zifu's status is not low, he has to call the shopkeeper a senior.
"The choice is yours. The shopkeeper opened the window as usual and threw a weighing plate on the floor for Yu Zifu to choose.
Yu Zifu did not hesitate to pick out the most expensive radio compass and handed it over to a child next to him for observation.
This subtle gesture seems to have been noticed by the shopkeeper.
"You bought it for this boy?" the shopkeeper asked.
"Back to his predecessors, although he is a freshman, he is not a child, because he has already been selected for the Readings Mountain. Yu Zifu said.
"Oh, it's not easy to be selected for Reading People Mountain at a young age, in this case, you only need to pay half of the spirit stones for this compass. The shopkeeper said.
"Thanks to the love of my predecessors. The boy next to him thanked him.
"Speaking of which, there was also a teenager who claimed to be a student of the Kuzen Monastery and bought my radio compass. The shopkeeper said.
"Can you elaborate on the seniors?" Yu Zifu said curiously.
"I can see that he is fifteen or sixteen years old, and he has long passed the age of being selected for Yueren Mountain, and besides, he doesn't seem to have enough spirit stones, could it be that you Kuzen Academy also have such disciples?"
Yu Zifu's face changed, and he suddenly seemed to think of someone, but he quickly dispelled such a bad idea.
"The seniors must have misunderstood, this person will not be a disciple of our Kuzen Academy, and there will never be a student of such age in my Kuzen Academy! Besides, the seniors can see that if the student is dedicated to martial arts, but the spirit stone is insufficient, I will buy the necessary items for him, and I will never embarrass the student in the matter of the spirit stone, please don't believe the villain's words, it will damage the name of my Kuzen Academy! With all due respect, how long has this person been gone?"
"The others haven't left, they're still in the dark room. ”
"I dared to ask my senior to let me question him face to face. Yu Zifu said angrily.
There was no sound coming from the window, as if the shopkeeper had acquiesced to the matter.
"Boom—"
Not long after, the secret door opened, and a figure walked out of the secret door.
Gu Cheng hugged the tattered radio compass tightly as if he had obtained a treasure. The secret door was only halfway open, and when the gap was just revealed, he actually saw Yu Zifu, and subconsciously shouted: "Master?"
Yu Zifu looked stunned, silent, and was stunned for a while.
I didn't think it was him! He sneaked out!
When Yu Zifu saw Gu Cheng, a wave of anger came out of his ribs.
Gu Cheng is a person who has done nothing, and he has not made any progress in his cultivation for many years, in this era when immortal cultivators are rampant and surplus food is insufficient, if he does not advance, he will retreat, and Gu Cheng's cultivation is not progressing, that is to completely destroy the prestige of the dry Zen Temple!
Wouldn't it be a joke to let outsiders know that he existed in the dry temple?
Thinking of the words he had just released, he secretly made a decision that he must not let the prestige of the Kuzen Temple be damaged again!
"Bold villain, how dare you pretend to be a student of my Kuzen Academy?" Yu Zifu said with a gloomy face and a cold snort.
Gu Cheng found that the master seemed to have misunderstood something, and was about to explain, "Master, you seem to have misunderstood..."
But Yu Zifu had already preemptively said: "For the sake of the shopkeeper, I won't kill you today, but leave you alive, if you spread rumors again and claim to be a disciple of my dry Zen courtyard, I will set you up to correct the Fa and use the prestige of my dry Zen courtyard, now, get out of me immediately!"
In order to prove his identity, Gu Cheng had to take out a piece of jade pendant from the dry Zen Academy, and said, "Master, it's really me, Gu Cheng." ”
Yu Zifu waved his sleeves, Yu Feng shattered the jade pendant, and said angrily: "You have to inch in! You dare to lie that I am a disciple of the courtyard?
After Gu Cheng noticed these actions and looked at the open window of the high counter, even if Gu Cheng was ignorant, he already understood that it was not Yu Zifu who recognized him wrongly, but that Yu Zifu was unwilling to recognize him as an apprentice in front of the shopkeeper.
Thinking of this, Gu Cheng was unwilling and angry, and pushed the wheelchair out without hesitation.
Either stubbornness, or anger, he had secretly decided not to return to the dry temple, in short, he didn't want to be a victim again.
The street was in tatters, bumpy all the way, Gu Cheng walked very slowly, but the wheelchair didn't go far after all, but the wheels were stuck in the ravine.
Gu Cheng cleaned up his mood a little and picked up the wheel, but unfortunately he couldn't lift it at all, so he simply rested a little and took advantage of this gap to think about it carefully.
Now that the future is in a blur, leaving the dry monastery is equivalent to losing the right to practice, when will his dream come true?
Whenever Gu Cheng thought of this, he looked at his legs unwillingly. But he didn't stay here, because he had made up his mind a long time ago that he would never give up and persevere! So he put his hand on the wheel again, and kept pulling the wheel up hard, but after spending a stick of incense, he still couldn't move the wheel out of the ravine.
"Bang-" "Bang-" "Bang-"
At this moment, the next street resounded with a roar one after another, and of the three voices, one approached the street closer to the other.
"Immortal cultivators are here! Run!"
There was a commotion behind Gu Cheng, and then a group of people ran past Gu Cheng. One, two, three .... Constantly running away in panic, completely unaware of Gu Cheng stuck in the ravine.
Seeing this scene, Gu Cheng subconsciously looked at the street next door, only to see bursts of black smoke rising there. Gu Cheng didn't doubt it, and immediately affirmed the information he heard from the radio compass - there was an immortal cultivator haunting the Southern Regions!
Kuzen Street is one of the places where immortal cultivators haunt in the Southern Regions!
If it were usual, he would have gotten out a long time ago, but this time the bad thing was that the wheelchair was stuck.
Gu Cheng's heart sank, and he kept waving his hand to those who had escaped for help.
After all, the wave of his hand had an effect, and finally a person noticed him, but Gu Cheng soon found out that that person was Yu Zifu, he just glanced at it, and didn't pay attention to himself at all, he just did useless work.
Gu Cheng simply put down his hand and struggled to lift the wheels alone, but the wheelchair was too heavy to lift.
Gu Cheng's face was flushed, and now the immortal cultivator was constantly approaching him, and the sound of "click" sounded, and although the wheels were slightly loose, they were still stuck in the ravine.
"Move me!"
At this moment, Gu Cheng felt that his center of gravity was on one side, and he and his wheelchair rose up in the air.
Only then did Gu Cheng realize that someone seemed to help him lift the wheelchair.
Subconsciously turned his head and saw that the person who lifted the wheelchair was the Tong Sheng who had just stood next to Yu Zifu.
Tong Sheng looked immature, and he looked no more than eight or nine years old.
Gu Cheng was very grateful to him, but now that the crisis was lurking, he really didn't have time to say words of gratitude. Tong Sheng was also very aware of this, so he held on to the handle of the wheelchair and pushed Gu Cheng all the way to a safe underground pit.
This is an anti-immortal cave, and there are many such potholes dug on Kuzen Street, as long as the immortal cultivators appear, most of the people who have no ability to resist will choose to take refuge here.
"Are you okay?" Tong Sheng didn't take a breath and said to Gu Cheng.
"It's fine. Gu Cheng shook his head and said, "Thank you for saving me." ”
"That's what I do. Tong Sheng said with a stiff smile.
"What responsibilities can you have at such a young age?" Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows and said with a wry smile.
As soon as the words fell, Tong Sheng suddenly became dissatisfied, snorted coldly, and then took out a token engraved with 'Reading People Mountain' from his waist.
"Do you see this token? I've already been selected for Reading People Mountain, and I will be Jin Wuwei in the future, and it will be a matter of time before I arrest immortal cultivators, of course I can't die without help." ”
Seeing this scene, Gu Cheng's smile stiffened slightly.
I didn't expect it.... The other party has been selected for his dream reading mountain at a young age, and he always feels like a passerby of others, always standing still, and others have been catching up, surpassing themselves, and their own ...... is still talking about dreams in the air.
After an hour, the roar outside came to an abrupt end. Gu Cheng and the others all realized that it seemed that the crisis had passed.
"I'm going back to the dry Zen Monastery to practice martial arts, farewell!" Tong Sheng said goodbye without hesitation. I saw that Tong Sheng's steps were light, and he walked out of the anti-immortal cave in only three steps, which shows that he has a very high level of martial arts practice.
Gu Cheng looked at Tong Sheng's back, as if he was far away, and couldn't help but sigh.
"When I was twenty years old, I died in a car accident, but I didn't want to come to this world from the earth, I was born without a broken leg bone, and I couldn't take a step, and now it's been fifteen years in a flash, but I'm still standing still, and I still can't take a step. ”
Gu Cheng shook his head and dispelled the bad thoughts.
Even so, I have to practice martial arts diligently, and God rewards me for my diligence! More hard work, more harvest!
-------------
Gu Cheng did not return to the Kuzen Temple, but only went to a deserted martial arts training ground on Kuchan Street.
The bricks and tiles in this martial arts training field are scattered, the dust is scattered, and only a few wooden people who have become rotten wood are left in the field.
"Bang bang. ”
Gu Cheng pushed the wheelchair in front of the wooden man, and kept knocking on these piles with his fist, just to practice the basic skills.
One punch, two punches, three punches......
Gu Cheng punched hundreds of punches, and soon his palms were swollen and purple, so he could only endure the pain and continue to practice martial arts.
But Gu Cheng knows better than anyone that this body is born with a broken leg bone, but the martial arts are profound, and the body parts are indispensable, and the body cannot lay a comprehensive foundation, and the cultivation can only stay on the martial artist.
Maybe it's stubbornness, he always wants to keep trying, or maybe he doesn't want to live a life that has been arranged.
With this repetition of the exercises, the day passed quickly. At this time, in the dead of night, Gu Cheng was covered with scars, fell to the ground tired, and opened the radio compass he bought that morning.
"Rustle-" The radio compass has been in the air.
Gu Cheng smiled bitterly and found that the original coordinates were still in the store in the morning, no wonder there was no sound.
Just when Gu Cheng was about to correct the coordinates, the sound of the radio compass disappeared, and was replaced by a roar of "bang-" and "bang-", and the explosion was mixed with a series of exclamations "ah-".
Gu Cheng was stunned. This roar was the same sound that was heard during the attack on Kuzen Street in the morning.
The next moment, he realized that the shop might have been attacked by immortal cultivators!
Gu Cheng suddenly remembered that he was helpless in the morning, so he pushed his wheelchair without thinking and rushed to the store in the dark.
After arriving at the end of Kuchan Street, Gu Cheng looked at the ruins in front of him, as if he had come to a strange place.
The whole shop collapsed, a sea of fire, and smoke erupted.
In this sea of fire, Gu Cheng suddenly heard a faint voice, looked along the sound, and found that a person was pressed under the stone bricks.
"I'll get you out right away. Gu Cheng abandoned the idea of vigilance, didn't think much about it, and subconsciously moved those stone bricks.
"It's alive!" Gu Cheng hugged the man out, and felt that the man had a breath.
This man was wearing a flying fish suit, apparently a brocade guard, and his clothes had been burned with many sesame-sized holes, through which his skin was charcoal black, and his body was badly charred.
In this dry Zen street, not to mention doctors, there are not even medicinal herbs, and all those who are sick can only ask for more blessings on their own, and it is impossible to survive such severe burns.
"Hold on!"
Gu Cheng didn't care too much, and directly carried this Jin Wuwei to his body and took him to a nearby abandoned house.
Gu Cheng carefully put this person on the bed, took out a yellowed candle on his body, and lit it, the fire lit up, and then he saw the person's appearance clearly, this is a well-defined man, although the left side of his face was burned, but he could still see his facial features, and he always felt as if he had seen this person from somewhere.
"I'll call someone to come and rescue you right away. Gu Cheng said.
Just when Gu Cheng hadn't left half a step, the candle was extinguished in vain with a "whew", and the man stretched out his hand, grabbed Gu Cheng's hand, and said, "Don't... Bring... Anyone.... Come here. ”
"Don't you want to live anymore?" Gu Cheng turned his head to look at the man and said in astonishment.
"Don't... Bring... Anyone.... Come here...," the man replied with the same sentence repeated.
Gu Cheng Chang sighed, thinking that he had to follow his wishes and stay by his side, which could be regarded as the last moment to accompany him.
This whole night, for some reason, the whole house was cold and windy, although Gu Cheng closed the doors and windows, but the wind did not stop, whining echoed in this narrow room, everything around was shaking, and candles could not be lit.
And the man on the bed was still repeating the same sentence: "Don't... Bring... Anyone.... Come here...."
These words seemed to be hypnotic, Gu Cheng was tired for a while, and fell asleep unconsciously.
When Gu Cheng opened his eyes, it was already morning.
Sunlight shone in through the window paper, sifted through the worn screen paper into a faint light, and fell on the burned man's body, and a mysterious text emerged from his body.
The words flowed out drops of shiny water, and the drops of water flowed onto the wound, constantly warming the wound, and it was visible to the naked eye that the wound was constantly healing.
"There's still breath!can be saved!" Gu Cheng subconsciously put his finger on the person's nose.
Gu Cheng hurriedly walked to the courtyard and went to the wellhead to get some water. The water that came out was very dirty, but after Gu Cheng's homemade filter and heating, it quickly became clear.
Gu Cheng had learned some treatment measures, carefully helped him clean his wounds, and also did some necessary bandaging.
As for the next arrangement, Gu Cheng had no choice but to follow that person's wishes, keep it secret for him first, and then make plans when he recovers from his injuries, however, Gu Cheng is going to start worrying about the food problem, Kuchan Street will distribute some food every week, but one person can only receive a meager coarse grain, if he wants to distribute his own food to this person, I am afraid that he will be hungry.
Saving people's lives and starving, Gu Cheng still chose the former.
In this way, Gu Cheng took care of him all day long, and in the evening, Gu Cheng picked out the sand from those coarse grains, and then rolled it into a paste and slowly fed him.
Soon, the days passed, one day, two days, three days ....
But as this person's injuries slowly recovered, Gu Cheng felt more and more strange, as if the people who were lying in bed in the past few days were all people of different ages.
On the first day, what Gu Cheng saw was a charred person, on the second day, he saw an old man with half burns, and on the third day, the old man turned into a middle-aged man who had recovered from his injuries..... Today, the person in front of him has turned into a young man with smooth skin.
In just five days, Gu Cheng was like witnessing five people of different ages.
Gu Cheng saw that this person's injuries were healed, so he handed over a torn emperor list to that person, and said suspiciously: "You are the person drawn on this emperor list?"
The man took the imperial list and was stunned for a moment, his eyes revealing a hint of meaning.
Gu Cheng noticed this detail, and there was no doubt about it, it was certain that this person was the famous Jinwu Weisu, and the emperor's list was full of portraits of him, and it seemed that the people from Dongchang were tracking down his whereabouts.
"I'm not just Sue. The man's eyes looked at Gu Chengdao.
"I don't understand what you mean. Gu Cheng's eyes froze, and his eyebrows raised.
"You've seen the changes in my body over the past few days. Su Buxian said, "In the past few days, you must be curious to know why I was able to recover so quickly." ”
Su Buxian's words hit the question in Gu Cheng's heart in the past few days, and Gu Cheng nodded thoughtfully.
"You've probably guessed who I really am. Su Buxiao's eyes narrowed slightly.
"You...."Gu Cheng squeezed his fist slightly, and said a little nervously, "It's an immortal cultivator." ”
"That's right, I'm Jinwu Wei Su Bu Harm, and I'm also the owner of the only shop on Kuchan Street, and at the same time, I'm also an immortal cultivator. Su Buxian boldly admitted.
Gu Cheng was shocked and wary, and pretended to be solemn and said, "Aren't you worried that I will expose you and go out?"
"If you had exposed me, you would have handed me over a long time ago. Su Buxian smiled and said nonchalantly.
"I did hesitate because I had a question in my mind. Gu Cheng stared at Su Bu and said.
"Speak. Su Buxian smiled and spread out his palm.
"Since you are an immortal cultivator, why do you still help Jin Wuwei capture immortal cultivators?" Gu Cheng raised his head slightly, and his eyes suddenly became fierce.
Su Buxian laughed in vain, raised his hand slightly, and pointed at Gu Cheng's stump legs, "I believe you will understand me, you are a person with disabled legs, and I used to be a person." ”
Su Buxian gently made a gesture to chop off his limbs.
Renbi refers to a kind of torture that turns people into pigs, that is, chopping off limbs, destroying all facial features on the body, and then throwing them into the toilet to fend for themselves, which is a very cruel torture.
"But now I'm standing here, with my features intact and my limbs sound. Su Buxian stood up and said sharply.
Gu Cheng's eyes widened, his eyes were dumbfounded, and his eyes were full of doubt.
Su Buxian also guessed what Gu Cheng thought, so he changed his words: "Do you want to take your own path like a normal person?"
Gu Cheng frowned, and said in disbelief: "I think, it's just..."
"I can do you a favor, but it comes at a cost. Su Buxian said first, and then his face turned gloomy in vain, leaned in front of Gu Cheng, and said in a low voice: "If you want to recover your legs, you have to become an immortal cultivator and reshape your body." ”
Gu Cheng was stunned and couldn't help but gasp.
"But I just want to be a Jin Wuwei, this is my original intention to enter the dry Zen Monastery to cultivate. Gu Cheng restrained his surprise and quickly calmed down.
Su Buxian stared at Gu Cheng, sneered, and said, "Am I not Jin Wuwei?"
Gu Cheng paused slightly, his lips moved slightly, but he couldn't refute him. The immortal cultivator in front of him was indeed a Jin Wuwei.
"Who said that immortal cultivators can't be Jinwuwei? There are also bad people in Jinwuwei, and there will be good people among immortal cultivators, cultivating immortals is just a means to enhance oneself, and I am not a Jinwuwei for pleasure and revenge, but just to protect the people around me. Su Buxiao said.
"Then why is it that no one has been able to discover your cultivation?" Gu Cheng asked after pondering for a long time.
"That's why I was attacked. Su Bu let out a sigh of relief and said, "Just because I have a secret that can hide my cultivation, they all want it!"
Gu Cheng thought for a moment, and only after a while did he say, "In that case, can you help me reshape my body and let me stand up again?"
"Wait, you have to think about it. Su Buxian's eyes showed a hint of coldness, and the cold glow approached Gu Cheng, "But all immortal cultivators, nine deaths, even if you can survive and live as an immortal cultivator, not only do you have to fight with the sky and the earth, but once the identity of an immortal cultivator is discovered, you may also be killed by your former companions, many disasters and difficulties, and many fates, do you have the consciousness of death?"
"I...."Gu Cheng shook his head again and again, "I don't plan to die yet." ”
Su Buxian smiled, nodded slightly, and took off the bone necklace around his neck, "This answer is enough." ”
The necklace was made up of hook-shaped bones strung together, the bones were translucent and had many wounds, apparently a certain number of years.
Gu Cheng took the bones, but he didn't expect that these bones seemed to be very heavy, but they were as light as tissue paper, "This is....?"
"This is the Demon Bone, it can make you calm without completely eliminating your distracting thoughts, and help you concentrate on breaking through the first threshold of immortal cultivators, but...", Su Buxiao's eyes closed slightly and said, "You must sleep for five years first." ”
"Five years of sleep...?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows, and suddenly felt a heavy brain, and his consciousness gradually blurred.
After only a few breaths, Gu Cheng couldn't sit still, but he struggled to raise his head and look at Su Buxian.
"That's right, after five years, your body will be completely cleansed, during which your consciousness will fall into a deep sleep, but your physical body will still cultivate itself, if you wake up, you don't need to be surprised by what is happening in front of you, even.... You may have become a master in a certain field, and you don't need to worry, I will help you with the aftermath of the five years. ”
Gu Cheng was weak, his lips moved slightly, and he wanted to say something, but he found that he was speechless.
"Finally, I advise you, in this era, if you want to be a good person, you must be a person who is worse than a bad person, don't forget those dirty methods, only those who live can be a good person. ”
