In the third year of the Great Sui Dynasty, the sky changed.

Thousands of huge meteorite meteors, burning with terrifying blood-red flames, accompanied by earthquakes, flash floods, tsunamis and other disasters landed in various states and counties of the Great Sui.

For a time, the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty was full of mourning.

From the Son of Heaven to the grass people, no one will forget this year.

Emperor Wulong of the Great Sui Dynasty, who had just changed his name of the year, had to issue three edicts in a row and changed the yuan to "Tianshun" again.

The disaster lasted for three whole months, and there were all kinds of urgent reports with blood-red handprints, which were sent to Beijing as soon as possible. The people of the capital were stunned when they saw tired and foaming horses galloping through the streets under the desperate whips of the equally tired knights, and they knew that there was another disaster. Chapter 1 Behind every urgent report of the Born Stone Man, it means thousands or even tens of thousands of innocent lives!

Fortunately, three months later, the Son of Heaven's edict seemed to have really worked, and this strange and unprecedented disaster gradually came to an end, and it had been more than ten days without receiving an urgent report of the disaster.

......

Today is a good weather, near Luomei Mountain in Yuzhou, Dasui Prefecture, it is rainy all year round, and there are not many sunny and cloudless days like today.

The children of Lianhuatai Village finished their classes and dispersed in a bustling manner.

Sun Li, who was already thirteen years old, walked out in the crowd. The Master stood at the door, and every student who went out saluted him as a farewell.

The master was a slightly thin scribe in his forties, who was said to be famous for his talents. Since ancient times, the literary style has flourished in the vicinity of Luomei Mountain, and small villages like Lianhuatai have also pooled money to invite this master to teach the children in the village.

It's just that someone as old as Sun Li is already a good laborer in the family, listening to the master's lecture every morning and going to do farm work in the afternoon.

When encountering a proud protégé with excellent grades, the master will naturally smile, and maybe touch his head and say a few words of encouragement.

When encountering those stubborn and unbearable Chapter 1 stone people who are born stone people and do not seek progress, the master naturally threw a few words of stern supervision with a straight face.

Sun Li walked over, bowed his hand, and said respectfully and rigorously: "Don't pass the master." ”

The master nodded, and waved his hand to let him pass.

There is no encouragement and no urging. It's no different from treating ordinary people.

Sun Li has long been accustomed to it.

He is inconspicuous in this Lianhuatai Village, and many things and many eyes will inadvertently ignore him.

But Sun Li himself understands that he is by no means as ordinary as others think. The group of children I look at is different from them.

Out of the five-room school, he walked home.

A group of classmates next to him hooked shoulders and put their backs: "Sanzi, what are you doing in the afternoon?"

"It's boring, the master asked me to read the Book of Changes, I can't understand that thing, what's the point?"

"Hehe, why don't we catch fish in the afternoon?"

"No, I only went yesterday. ”

"Then let's go play with Widow Li's daughter?"

"Hey, I like this ......"

"Hahaha!"

This group of people are all rich families in the village, and they don't have to work in the fields, and the leader is Tian Yingdong, the son of the head of Tian Village.

As soon as Tian Yingdong turned his head, he saw Sun Li on the side, and a strange smile immediately appeared on his face, and he called him: "Lili, do you want to pick up guests in the afternoon?"

The children around laughed.

Sun Li naturally understood that they were making fun of his name.

Sun Linai is the eldest son in the family, and his father gave him this name, naturally hoping that as the eldest son, he will be able to support the Sun family in the future.

But I don't know which day, it was rumored in the village that there was a chubby kiln sister in Ni Honglou, the county seat, whose name was "Lili", and Tian Yingdong had a bad taste, and often used this to tease Sun Li.

Sun Li ignored them. Tian Yingdong and his group thought they had won, laughed and ignored him, and walked away quickly.

Sun Li shook his head, a wry smile appeared on his face, and he remembered a sentence he saw in the book: muddy, mediocre people are happy.

The behavior that these people thought was funny did not really insult Sun Li: if the monkey bared his teeth at people and showed off his peach beard at people, would people feel frustrated?

He studied since he was a child, and at the age of thirteen was the time when his thoughts were formed.

The group in front of them was still giggling, and suddenly a huge red flame smashed down from the sky at a rapid pace, and exploded among those people with a "bang".

"Ah......h

There were a few screams, and three or four of those people fell, some were injured, and some were burned with their clothes.

Tian Yingdong was farther away and escaped by luck, but he was also so frightened that his face turned pale. He stared blankly at his injured companion and didn't know what to do.

The two who were burned by the fire instinctively rolled on the ground and extinguished the flames.

One of the wounds was on the face and the other on the hand, the wound was extremely deep, and it was painful.

Sun Li looked at the sky in the distance with horrified eyes, and suddenly reacted, shouting at them: "Run......"

"Whew, Whew, Whew......"

Lines of crimson flames quickly fell through the sky. The small ones are the size of a fist, and the big ones are the size of a human head.

The spirits of those guys were scattered, screaming and screaming, and the books were scattered in all directions.

In the clear sky, there were three huge golden-red fireballs slowly falling, and it was clear that they were coming towards Lianhuatai Village!

And the numerous fireballs accompanied the three largest golden-red fireballs, rushing forward to bombard the earth.

"Meteorite! Run!"

The whole village was in chaos all of a sudden, and in the face of such a natural disaster, no one in this small mountain village could calm down at all. Chickens and dogs jumped, children cried, women barked, men roared, and it was a mess.

Sun Li looked at the three huge flame meteors in shock, the meteors dragged a long tail of fire, and there was a dazzling flame light shield in front of them, which was extremely huge, even several times larger than the most huge meteor in this natural disaster that circulated in the entire Great Sui Dynasty.

The fireballs that accompanied the meteors blew up the ground every time they landed, and some of the houses in the village began to shake.

Everyone panicked, they knew that under the impact of such a huge meteor, it would definitely cause a series of disasters, and they couldn't escape from such a small mountain village.

After the panic, it is time to be killed. Everyone closed their eyes in despair as they watched the three huge flame meteors fall.

But for a long time, the expected earthquake did not come, and the huge screaming of meteors in the sky disappeared. People slowly opened their eyes and saw smoke billowing from the mountains behind the village......

Three huge flame meteors descended silently, and the ground didn't even shake. The villagers in the panic looked at each other, some of them couldn't believe that they had escaped the catastrophe so easily, and they didn't seem to understand why Lord Yama didn't accept them.

The fire inside the mountain was raging, let alone fighting the fire, and the villagers did not dare to approach it at all. They have become frightened birds. Suddenly, someone pointed to the smoke and said in shock: "There seems to be something in there!"

Everyone hurried to look, the smoke was billowing up, and it was not clear to see, but it seemed that there was something hidden inside, and it should be very huge and hideous!

What is that?!The villagers were silent.

......

On the seventh day, the fire was extinguished in a sudden rain.

From the beginning of the rain, all the villagers gathered together, trembling in the direction of the meteor's fall, as if waiting for a judgment on their lives. The smoke slowly cleared, revealing what was inside.

Three huge stone statues stand firmly in the middle of the mountain.

Although it is only the periphery of Luomei Mountain, the general peaks are also hundreds of zhang high. But these peaks only reached the ankles of the three huge stone statues.

The stone statues are hideous, terrifying, and condescendingly seem to be able to disdain the whole world in their eyes!

The stone statue on the left is a hundred eyes, and the stone statue on the right is a hundred arms. It seems to be respected by the stone statue in the center, but the stone statue in the center is not anything special, it looks ordinary, but it is taller.

"Ahh

With such a huge and vicious stone statue, the villagers all felt bad, and their faces were extremely ugly. Tian Village Chief had the intention to report the disaster, but Lianhuatai Village did not suffer much damage, and he could only shake his head and take a look after hesitation.

It is also strange to say that such a huge three stone statues can only be seen in Lianhuatai Village, once you leave the village, you can only see a cloud and mist in the distance.

This vision made many villagers secretly start to talk about it, this is a disaster sent by God to Lianhuatai Village!

So within a few days, the villagers spontaneously put incense tables, incense candles and fire paper outside the mountain to worship the three evil gods. Some even prostrate every day.

......

"Ah Li, come here, you also bow down, and ask the stone god to forgive our family's sins and bless our family and livestock to prosper. ”

Sun Li was dragged by his mother and knelt down a little reluctantly in front of the incense case. But for these three stone statues, Sun Li always had some indescribable feelings in his heart.

A thick layer of wax oil had accumulated on the incense case, and the smoke from the burning of the paper incense candles curled, and through the mist, Sun Li suddenly felt that the one in the middle of the three stone statues in the distant mountains seemed to look at himself!

Sun Lixin smiled, and he was dazzled.

"Bye, you see your brother has kowtowed. Mother urged.

Sun Li's second brother Sun Chun was very obedient, kneeling down reverently, and his little head banged on the bluestone slab. Sun Li is filial: "Mother, I'll worship." ”

He held three sticks of incense, bowed respectfully, and got up to insert the incense into the censer.

A distant voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Come on......"

In an instant, Qianshan responded!

Sun Lihan's hair suddenly rose: "Huh?"

He looked around, his mother was still closing her eyes and making a wish, and his younger brother Sun Chun had already run to the side, teasing a bug in the grass, and the insect was demonstrating to him, and his whole body was full of hair, and it was colorful.

Sun Li wondered: Did I hear it wrong?

"Come on, come on......"

Sun Li was taken aback: "Who!?"

"You kid, you're shocked, what's wrong? Kneel down and kowtow to the stone god to apologize, if the stone god blames, our family will not be at peace. His mother grabbed him.

Sun Li was helpless and did as his mother said. The mother has words in her mind, which is nothing more than asking the immortal to forgive her sins.

Finally, the ceremony was over, and the mother got up, dragged Sun Chun, and beckoned to the eldest son: "Ah Li, go back, if your mother doesn't go back to cook, your father will definitely starve himself to death." ”

Sun Li smiled and followed. After taking a dozen steps, he couldn't help but look back, and in the smoke, he clearly saw the huge stone statue in the middle of his lips move.

"Come on......"

The voice came from afar again, and Sun Li was surprised: "Mother, second child, did you hear someone talking?"

"Who is talking?" Sun Chun pouted.

The mother also shook her head: "What nonsense are you talking about, this is our mother, how can anyone else talk?"

"But I really heard someone talk......"

The mother reached out and tried his forehead: "This child, it can't be sick." ”

"Mother!" Sun Li opened his mother's hand: "I saw that the stone statue's mouth moved, and he was talking to me......"

"Smack!" Sun Li's head hit his mother: "The stone god is a stone, how can he still talk to you with his lips moving? Don't talk nonsense, the people in the village will know about it, and they will think that you have fallen into evil spirits." ”

Obsessed!

The last evil person was burned to death, and his relatives were forced to leave Lianhuatai Village and live in exile. The villagers have a great fear of this kind of ghostly calamity.

Sun Li shuddered, and immediately closed his mouth and didn't dare to say any more.

After walking a few miles, he couldn't help but look back, the three stone statues were white clouds above their heads, standing still, and there was nothing unusual about them. Sun Li's heart was full of doubts.

......

Every morning before the Master's lecture, the children had to worship the statue of the saint. The statue of the saint had been hanging on the wall of the school for many years, and it was all yellow. Sun Li has also watched it for several years, and he can't be more ripe.

Bowing and getting up, in Sun Li's eyes, the saint statue turned into a stone statue, his lips moved, and his voice was deep and far-reaching: "Come on......"

Sun Li was stunned on the spot.

......

He didn't know if he had really fallen for it, but since that day he heard the stone statue speak, no matter where he was or what he was doing, a voice was calling him from afar.

The almost ubiquitous call made him go crazy!

"If it's really evil, let me suffer alone, don't bother my family. ”

Sun Li sat on the edge of the bed and made up his mind.

He quietly opened the door and slipped out. Ran all the way into the back mountain. The stone statue looked even more hideous and terrifying in the night, but Sun Li didn't know why, there was no fear in his heart, and he ran wildly on the mountain road with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and went straight to the stone statue!

Ever since the stone statue landed here, no one dared to approach that mountain forest.

Zhang San, the splasher in the village, boasted of his boldness, and gambled three jars of old wine with people that day, saying that he dared to touch the stone statue, but he was scared to run back halfway to the wolf, and he was seriously ill for half a month, and he never dared to mention what he saw and heard that day.

Sun Li grew up in the mountains since he was a child, and he exercised his legs and feet well, but he ran at full speed, and he didn't reach the mountain area near the stone statue until the second half of the night.

He was already sweating profusely, his clothes were soaked, his hair was sticking to his forehead, but he was holding back a lot of strength in his heart, and he climbed a mountain peak with his hands and feet, and roared at the three huge stone statues without looking: "I'm coming!"

The voice echoed, as if countless mandrill ghosts responded to him together: "I'm coming......"

The strange sound of the bird flying and fluttering.

Under the darkness, Sun Li clearly saw the three huge stone statues and looked down at himself!

The hundred-eyed stone statue on the left actually shook its head, and every eyeball swept itself.

When those eyes looked at him, Sun Li buzzed in his head, his body shook, and he fell down softly!

......

Sun Li felt that he had slept very badly, and when he woke up, he was still groggy, and someone kept telling him something in his dream......

"Heaven and earth are two instruments, yin and yang...... Palm the heaven and earth, look at yin and yang!"

"Ninefold Extreme Law, full of immortals and demons, annihilating without thinking, covering the sea and mountains. Even though the road is endless, I have a thought to follow my heart, a long journey, the ancients do not see, only those who come are ......"

"Mediocre people disturb themselves, mortals condense, Taoists adjust and take pictures, sages are true, real people guard gods, people gather gods, saints are empty, and immortals are unhindered......"

"Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are regarded as dogs;

"The avenue is three thousand heavy, everyone in the world is the door to ascending to the immortals, I broke out of the door alone, and found another way, my life is not in the five elements, and the soul is not in the six paths!"

“......”

There was a lot of commotion, basically he hadn't heard of it.

The most infuriating thing is that there is more than one voice, at least two voices are arguing, and partiality gives people the feeling that there is a third existence. But the third person still refused to speak, for some reason.

From time to time, images flashed, and in the void, countless lights were emitted from the eyes of the hundred-eyed giant, and the stars fell under the strafing!

There are also hundred-armed giants, with their heads and feet in the infinite void, and on each palm, there is a galaxy!

The third person seems to be illusory, and the spirit of the soul has fixed the universe......

The mess can't be cleaned!

He sat up, shook his head, sobered up for a moment, and looked out the window, it was already half of the morning.

Sun Li suddenly had a spirit: Didn't he go to the mountains, he also saw the three stone statues, and then fainted, but how could he wake up in his bed?

He stood up suddenly, something flickered out of the corner of his eye, and he turned his head to see that there were three small stone figures on the shabby table beside the bed.

The stone figures are only the size of a fist, and they look a little rough, but they are clearly the three stone statues in the mountains behind the village!

The left side has a hundred arms, and the right side has a hundred eyes, and the middle seems to be plain.

It's just that it's so small that I don't know how many times.

At this moment, there was an exclamation outside: "The stone statue, the stone statue is gone, the stone statue is gone, the stone statue is gone......

Voices grew louder and louder, and people were talking about how the huge stone statue had disappeared overnight. All kinds of groundless speculation and rumors are spreading.

Sun Li looked at the three little stone figures and couldn't believe it: are they really them?!

Whether it was or not, Sun Li didn't dare to let people know about the existence of these three little stone figures, let alone talk about what happened last night. What's more, I don't know how he came back.

He quickly put away the three small stone figures, opened the door and walked out.

"Dad, mother. ”

Now it is the farming season, and his parents have not gone out, seeing him come out, the two old people smiled, the mother was listening to the noise outside, a little curious, and glanced at Sun Li's father, the old grandson did not say anything, so she swished to clean up the work at hand: "The stone statue is gone? What's the matter, the master, I'll go out and inquire ......."

Of course, Sun Li's father knew his wife's temperament, so he smiled and didn't say anything. Sun Li's mother had already run out quickly.

Sun Li hesitated for a moment, but still decided not to tell his parents and younger brother Xiaoshiren about the tragic experience of the person who was "evil" in the previous family, which made Sun Li feel palpitations, and he made up his mind: if he was really evil, he would carry it by himself and never affect his family.

......

In the second year of Tianshun in the Great Sui, Sun Li was already fifteen years old, but he had not yet married.

It is said that Sun Li's family is considered to be solid in Lianhuatai Village, and he is well-looking and has no bad habits, but his marriage always fails, and the other party always has various reasons, so that Sun Li's father and mother have nothing to say.

The parents gradually became anxious, but Sun Li disagreed. He agrees with the matchmaker's perfunctory words: fate has not arrived.

Sun Li felt as if something was waiting for him. Because of the three existences in my mind, I will jump out from time to time to argue.

It was still the two of them who spoke, but Sun Li could always feel the existence of the third person, and that existence was as calm as a desolate mountain, unshakable.

The voices of the two people who spoke were extremely loud and thunderous.

At first, half a year was only when he was sleeping, and then it was no matter the time or occasion. Sometimes he was drinking water, and suddenly he choked on a mouthful of water into his nose......

However, under such continuous indoctrination, he gradually understood that what he was arguing about was actually an ethereal "cultivation" method.

According to them, there is a group of people in this world called "monks", and they divide the people of this world into ranks.

Ordinary people are not even "mortals", they have been mediocre all their lives, coming to this world with black eyes, leaving this world with black eyes, and not understanding the truth. Such a person can only be called a "mediocre person".

Above the mediocre, it is the "mortal".

Practicing martial arts, strong roots, and reaching the peak state, even if he is respected as "the first in the world", he can only barely be called a "mortal".

And those monks only need to pass the simplest cultivation to be able to reach the realm of "mortals".

And above the mortals, there are also the six realms of Taoist, Sage, True Man, Supreme Man, Sage, and Immortal, and all the monks are working towards the goal of becoming immortals.

However, not all people are qualified to cultivate, and there seem to be some harsh requirements. But what exactly is the requirement, Sun Li didn't understand.

Sun Li was tormented by the sound of quarrels for two years, and he didn't figure out how to cultivate.

The only good thing is that when he sees something, if he cherishes it, a voice will pop up to remind him.

In the past two years, Sun Li drilled into the depths of Luomei Mountain from time to time, and occasionally saw some precious herbs, under the reminder of those voices, he picked them all back, and handed them over to his father to sell in the market, which was really a big harvest. With this, the Sun family built a new house.

Sun Li's father was extremely proud and often bragged about his son outside.

In addition to herbs, there are also some strange stones, horns, bones and other things in the mountain, and sometimes when he sees that voice, he will tell him the name, efficacy, etc., but Sun Li can't understand it at all, but he puts it away. There was nowhere to sell it, so he got a pocket and put it in his own plaything.

No matter how Sun Li's father proudly bragged about his son outside, Sun Li was still the teenager who was easily ignored by everyone two years ago.

Because in the past two years, another child in Lianhuatai Village has risen like a comet and is shining!

He is Tian Yingdong, the son of Tamura chief.

Tian Yingdong is also fifteen years old this year, and he has not married, but that is the result of the Tian family's rejection of at least twenty family affairs.

Tian Yingdong, who was originally stubborn, seemed to have opened his mind overnight after the three huge stone statues landed on the back mountain two years ago and disappeared mysteriously. The Master was greatly surprised that he was able to train such a disciple, which made the Master feel that his life was in vain!

Then, Tian Yingdong made many amazing works, and gradually emerged in the Luomeishan area, where the literary style is flourishing. When scholars talk about young talents, they will rank Tian Yingdong first. Even many Confucians in Yuzhou feel that with another two or three years of training, Tian Yingdong will have enough strength to win the palace test!

What is not known to outsiders is that Tian Yingdong is not only brilliant, but also extraordinary. One hand can lift a stone lock of 300 catties. In the winter snow last year, Tian Yingdong accompanied the county lady who came to visit him to step on the snow in the mountains, but unexpectedly encountered a hungry tiger, Tian Yingdong actually killed the tiger with his bare hands! This also made the county lady secretly agree.

Tamura Changle can't close his mouth, his son is both civil and military, and the glorious lintel is inevitable. He naturally wants his son to study with peace of mind and get married, at least he has to wait for his son to think about it after high school, maybe his son can be the champion of both civil and military affairs, and the Son of Heaven will give him a marriage!

With such a radiant Tian Yingdong, Sun Li looked dim.

No matter how hard his father tried to brag, Sun Li was still just an ordinary offspring in the eyes of others. ！！！
