Chapter 4 The Fairy Old Man
When he was desperate, Ye Hao suddenly felt that his feet were steady, as if he was being held by something.
He hurriedly looked down, it turned out to be a long sword that happened to be held at his feet, and Ye Hao recognized that this long sword was the thin old man's.
The long sword seemed to be vigorously pulled, drawing an ellipse in the air, spiraling like a dead leaf, and finally holding Ye Hao to the ground steadily.
Ye Hao stepped on the ground with his feet on the ground before he breathed a long sigh of relief.
The thin old man was opposite Ye Hao, he waved his sleeves, but when he saw the long sword that fell to the ground, it flew up as if it was full of spirituality, and drew a wonderful arc, and finally accurately inserted it into the scabbard behind his back.
Ye Hao's mouth opened wide, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while when he recalled the scene of the battle between the unattractive little old man and the fairy beast in front of him.
The thin old man returned his sword to the sheath, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about something, and he was also in a daze.
At this time, the empty bamboo hat slope was surprisingly quiet.
It was Ye Hao who came back to his senses first, he peeked at the little old man in front of him, and inadvertently found that his right hand holding the sword in the fierce battle just now was trembling faintly, Ye Hao was suddenly shocked in his heart.
"God...... Grandpa Fairy, are you alright......" Ye Hao broke the silence.
"Huh......" Hearing Ye Hao's voice, the thin old man woke up from his contemplation.
He looked at Ye Hao carefully and asked, "Well, which little doll are you, why did you come here, and where are the adults of your family?"
"God...... Grandpa Fairy, I was originally from Linjia Village under the mountain, and I arrived here today to collect medicine from the mountain, and then I met that monster. ”
"Oh, little doll, are you from the Lin family?" the thin old man's eyes wrinkled inadvertently.
"Grandpa Fairy, I'...... I'm not a little doll anymore, I'm thirteen years old this year. Ye Hao was obviously very unconvinced.
"Oh, hahaha, interesting. Little children, you can actually climb to the halfway slope of Jilei Mountain, and no one will believe it when you say it, you really can't be a little doll......"
"Hmm?......" The little old man seemed to suddenly remember something, and his brows furrowed again.
"No, there is an enchantment in the middle of this Jilei Mountain, just under the cliff here, how can you cross that enchantment without the help of outsiders?"
Ye Hao said confusedly: "Enchantment? What is that? That's how I climbed up the mountain step by step, and I didn't see any enchantment." ”
The little old man's face showed a look of surprise: "Impossible, this enchantment was set up by an ancestor of Jilei Mountain back then, if there is no way to dissolve the formation, it is impossible to enter......"
Ye Hao showed a helpless expression on his face: "This ...... I don't know why...... When I was a child, I also heard Uncle Orion in the village say that there was a lot of fog in the middle of Jilei Mountain, and there seemed to be an invisible force blocking people from moving forward. But I've never been in this situation. ”
"This ......"
"Could it be that Master Ancestor's enchantment is useless to children? Also, who would have thought that a child could climb so high. Thinking of this, the little old man was relieved.
"Grandpa Fairy, you were really powerful just now, those thunders actually listened to you so much, and they beat that unicorn monster away in a few clicks. ”
"Hehe, you can't say that, that green unicorn has great powers, it has become a climate, if I hadn't triggered the forbidden blood thunder just now, it would have been impossible to repel it......" The little old man twisted his beard, still recalling the fierce battle scene just now.
"Fairy grandfather, since I was a child, I have dreamed of one day being able to hold a fairy sword, punish evil and promote good, subdue demons and eliminate demons, and become a sword immortal. Grandpa Fairy, you are so powerful, can you teach me? I want to worship you as a teacher. Speaking of this, Ye Hao seemed to have made a decision in his heart, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the thin old man.
Seeing this, the thin old man hurriedly pulled Ye Hao up, frowned, and said: "Doll, you can't do it, it's not that my old man doesn't want to teach you, it's really that I swore a poisonous oath to others back then, and I will never accept apprentices in my lifetime." So even if I have the heart to accept you, I can't break my oath......" Speaking of this, the thin old man seemed to think of the past, and couldn't help but sigh.
When Ye Hao heard this, his heart suddenly cooled half, but how could he be willing to give up, knelt down again, and pleaded: "Fairy grandfather, you can accept me, I am willing to serve you tea and water by your side, and serve your old man." ”
The little old man sighed and said slowly: "Actually, speaking of which, I have been concentrating on cultivation alone for the past few decades, and all I face every day is a sword and a wine jug...... And this doll of yours is the first person I've met in so many years, and we actually have some fate, it's just ...... It's just that the oath of the year must not be abandoned, otherwise my old man will have five thunderstorms...... Therefore I will not receive you today under any circumstances. ”
When Ye Hao heard this, tears unconsciously overflowed his eyes.
The thin old man couldn't bear to look at it: "That's it, doll, let me try your root bones first." ”
After saying that, the thin old man stretched out his hands and pinched them all over Ye Hao's body.
As his hands went up and down, his brow furrowed tighter and tighter.
Ye Hao's heart suddenly changed, could it be that his bones were not good, why did this old immortal's brows wrinkle tighter and tighter......
The thin old man shook his head, stopped touching his bones, and then grabbed Ye Hao's wrist with a shake of his hand, followed the pulse, and carefully checked Ye Hao's internal breath pockets. After a moment, the little old man sighed and withdrew his hands.
"Doll, it seems that God doesn't want you to go this way...... It's just that your roots and bones are not good, but I didn't expect that even the internal breath is so messy, and it is lifeless, and it is a rare dead vein......"
Hearing this, Ye Hao was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and his whole body was instantly cold and penetrating.
"...... Deathvein?"
"Grandpa Immortal, what does Death Pulse mean?" Ye Hao asked unwillingly.
"The so-called dead veins are chaotic and disorganized, without traces, and the various acupuncture points cannot be connected to each other. Just now, I swam my breath all over your body, and the place where the breath went was actually bumped left and right, and it could not be unblocked, and finally it was like mud and stone into the stream, and the stone sank into the sea. A person with this kind of death vein will not be able to gather vitality and penetrate the heavenly element, so he ,...... You can't cultivate immortals. ”
Hearing this, Ye Hao's heart felt as if he had been stabbed severely, and he was immediately in pain.
"Oh my God, cultivating immortals is the greatest wish in my life, but I'm actually a wasted person, and I can't cultivate at all...... God, how can you treat me like this......" Ye Hao trembled all over, and the pain in his heart was beyond measure.
Yes, this is Ye Hao's wish since he was a child, dreaming of one day being able to carry the fairy sword, ride the wind and waves, hoe the strong and help the weak. But now, this dream has been smashed on the wall of reality, how can Ye Hao's young heart bear it.
Ye Hao's tears fell irrepressibly like pearls with broken threads.
"Grandpa Immortal, is it true that I can't cultivate immortals in this life? Please, help me? I really want to cultivate immortals, that's my greatest wish in this life. Ye Hao cried and prayed.
Looking at the heartbroken Ye Hao, the thin old man was also secretly emotional.
When he first saw this child, his eyes were full of perseverance and perseverance, but now, his eyes have become empty and empty, which is a manifestation of broken dreams and despair in his heart, and if this continues, it will have an immeasurable impact on this child's life.
Touching the scene, looking at this scene, the little old man recalled himself when he was young, at that time others also said that he had no hope of cultivating immortals, but in the end, with perseverance and perseverance, he always adhered to the goal in his heart without changing, and finally broke out of the cocoon, truly entered the road of cultivating immortals, and finally became a road.
He knows that unremitting hard work and perseverance can create amazing greatness.
"Child, what's your name?" asked the little old man gently.
"Grandpa Fairy, my name is Ye Hao. The leaves of the leaves, the vastness of the vastness. Ye Hao's eyes were still rolling with tears.
Ye Hao...... , a leaf of the sky comes, and the vast long song of Kyushu is raised...... Ye Hao, let me ask you, can you endure hardship?"
Ye Hao nodded firmly and said, "As long as I can cultivate immortals, I can bear any kind of suffering." ”
"Well, if you insist on taking the path of cultivating immortals, you need to go through pain every day, maybe three or five years, maybe ten or eight years, maybe decades, but maybe you can't succeed in one lifetime, are you still willing to persevere?"
"I'm willing, Grandpa Fairy, as long as you have a way, no matter how hard it is, I'm willing to give it a try. Ye Hao's eyes flashed with determination.
The thin old man nodded: "That's it, you and I are fated to see each other, although I can't break my oath to accept you as an apprentice, but I can also help you." ”
After that, the little old man stretched out his right hand and pressed it on Ye Hao's dantian. In a moment, a red light appeared on the palm of his right hand, and after a flash of red light, it disappeared into Ye Hao's body.
Putting away the innate vitality, the little old man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ye Hao, just now I injected a part of my internal qi essence into your body, you need to refine it every day according to the mantra I taught you below, once a day, and persevere." The internal qi essence can change bones and wash the marrow and open up the internal breath, but every time you refine it, you will experience the pain of bone transformation, and that pain will tear your heart and lungs. If you can persevere and complete the refining of this part of the internal qi essence one day in the future, then your body will be rid of impurities, regulate the internal breath, and reshape the essence element, and your body will be able to be suitable for cultivating immortals. ”
"But...... I don't know how many years it will take to succeed, but it depends on your own creation. Mortals have a limited lifespan, if you can't refine it before Yang Shou is exhausted, then you can only die like a mortal, and you will never be able to step into the path of cultivating immortals again......" With a wave of his hand, another golden light hit Ye Hao's brain.
Ye Hao's mind moved, and the mantra of refining the inner qi essence immediately surfaced in his mind.
"I don't have to memorize this mantra, it's just imprinted in my mind, and I can't forget it, which is amazing. The old fairy gave me the way to reshape my body, so that my dreams could be fulfilled again. No matter how many years it takes, I must successfully refine this internal qi essence. Ye Hao resolutely made a decision, and his heart was overjoyed.
Ye Hao hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully to the little old man in front of him. "Immortal Grandpa, thank you for your grace of recreation, if I Ye Hao can one day step into the avenue of cultivating immortals and achieve something, it is all thanks to you, your kindness, I will never forget. ”
The little old man twisted his beard and nodded with a smile.
"Okay, I'll send you down the mountain, Ye Hao, come with me. ”
Ye Hao hurriedly walked in front of the little old man, but when he saw that the little old man didn't draw his sword this time, he just moved his mind, and his body took Ye Hao to the sky.
Ye Hao only felt the sound of gusts of wind whistling in his ears, and his eyes couldn't be opened at all. In a matter of moments, the two of them flew to the foot of Jilei Mountain. Ye Hao opened his eyes and saw that this was the middle ground between Linjia Village and the neighboring village Shijia Village.
The little old man touched his white eyebrows: "Ye Hao, you and I are here, I am afraid that there will be no goodbye in the future, I only hope that you can endure hardships and learn the way of cultivating immortals in the future." ”
When Ye Hao heard this, he knelt on the ground again: "Immortal grandfather, today you not only saved my life, but also passed on my exercises, this grace is like reconstruction, Ye Hao will live up to the expectations of the immortal grandfather in the future, and work hard to refine the essence, if you succeed in cultivating immortals in the future, you will always take the common people as your own responsibility, and get rid of the demons in the world......"
"Bah, what the world, what the common people......" The thin old man seemed to be dissatisfied when he heard this.
"Ah...... Grandpa Immortal, did I say something wrong?" Ye Hao froze.
"Ye Hao, you just need to remember, those are all false, people live like a passing cloud, as long as you can keep the obsession in your heart, and do something that can be worthy of your heart and the people you care about, this is enough. If you do this, it will not be in vain in this life, the common life, the world, fame, those are all false, you care about it, it doesn't necessarily care about you. ”
Ye Hao was stunned for a moment, and there were some doubts in his heart, what the fairy old man said seemed to be contrary to the purpose of cultivating immortals that he knew, but after thinking about it carefully, his words were not unreasonable, so he kowtowed deeply: "Yes, Grandpa Fairy, Ye Hao wrote it down." ”
When Ye Hao raised his head, he found that the immortal old man had lost his figure, Ye Hao suddenly felt inexplicably lost in his heart, and the tears in his eyes flowed out of his eyes again. He suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly shouted: "Fairy grandfather, I don't know what your name is, you tell me." ”
But I heard a voice in the distance: "Chic I, Pain I, Xiuzhen I, Drinking I, hahahaha, you just treat me as a crazy old man." ”
Ye Hao looked at the fairy shadow of the fairy old man who was far away, thinking back to the scene of almost dying and surviving just now, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while.
Halfway up the hill of Jilei Mountain.
The two figures stood side by side, looking at the ruins of the bamboo hat slope in front of them, and their faces were a little unkind.
One of the old men, who was thin and wearing a gray robe, spoke: "Second Senior Brother, looking at the traces of this battle and the strong vibration we felt at the top of the mountain just now, this should be two masters of extraordinary strength fighting...... Who could it be?"
The man beside him was dressed in a brocade robe, his face was ruddy, especially his eyes were shining, and as far as his eyes could see, he seemed to be able to see through everything in the world, full of wisdom.
He was silent for a while before he spoke: "Senior Brother Yun, the two sides of this fight are not necessarily people. ”
The gray-clothed old man's face changed slightly when he heard this: "Second Senior Brother, do you mean that the two sides of this fight may also be demons and monsters?" But seeing that the traces left by this fierce battle are so terrifying, if it is a demon, then this demon has already had a thousand years of Taoism. ”
The old man in brocade nodded and said, "Well, at least one of these two sides should not be a human, you see that there are traces of four-legged landing on the edge of the cliff, and the footprints are huge, this is definitely not something that humans can leave behind." The other one seems to be a master of using thunder, I don't know if it's a person from this sect......"
The gray-clothed old man said: "The person who can trigger the purple gold cloud thunder above our Jilei Mountain is not an ordinary person, at least the strength is not below me." ”
The old man in brocade shook his head and said: "Senior Brother Yun, you guessed wrong, just now when the mountain was shaking, I rushed out of the Thunder Light Hall as soon as possible, and saw that it was not a purple gold cloud thunder that appeared in the sky above the Thunder Mountain, but thousands of purple gold cloud thunders were attracted at the same time.
The old man in gray suddenly changed color: "This ...... Could it be...... Master, is his old man out of the customs?"
