Section 1 Scars

The torrent of time rushes endlessly, and when the morning sun rises, it is the beginning of a new day.

Chenxing opened his eyes, and there were countless starlights in his crystal clear eyes, just like the galaxy in the sky under the summer night. At this moment, these points of light that bloom with dazzling starlight are like living creatures, following an unpredictable trajectory of their own circulation.

Exhaled a long turbid breath from his mouth, and the turbidity turned into a layer of pale gray smoke clouds and slowly drifted away, as if a smoker exhaled a puff of smoke, which was really incredible, this was the first time that Chenxing had meditated and practiced for more than ten years.

The breath was extraordinarily long, and if it weren't for the open window of the room, the smoke would fill the room. When the turbidity is gone, I feel that the whole body is indescribably comfortable and transparent, as if every pore has been opened, and it can breathe instead of the mouth and nose.

Invisibly, there seems to be some kind of shackle that has been opened.

Immersed in this inexplicable sense of release, he slowly inhaled new air from the tip of his nose for a moment.

Immediately, Chen Xing frowned fiercely.

"Foot smell. ”

Then he knew that he seemed to have reached a new level, a new feeling that he had never felt before.

The smell in the boys' dormitory is complicated, the smell of sweat, the smell of inferior deodorant of laundry detergent, and even the smell of various snacks, these smells are all in Chenxing's dormitory.

But he knew that there would be no foot odor in this room.

Because his three roommates are all cleanliness people, and none of them have smelly feet and snoring, which are the worst drawbacks of dormitory life.

The only possible explanation is that it floated from the dormitory across the door. The dormitory opposite is home to several well-known people with smelly feet, which is a well-known fact in this dormitory building.

The corridor of the dormitory building is three meters wide, and the isolation effect of the dormitory door is not bad. In the past, as long as you close the door of your dormitory, you will not be disturbed by smells and sounds. But today, the door of his dormitory is obviously closed, he glanced at the clock on the bedside table next to him, the real time is basically the same as the usual biological clock to get up at the same time, five o'clock in the morning, this time opposite the dormitory will never get up and move.

Separated by two doors and a corridor, it could smell it, and even if Chenxing was sluggish, he could sense that the anomaly was coming from him.

He pulled out the 'ancient book' from his bosom, and his expression was a little complicated.

Although he had long thought that this book was a bit magical, before today, he still only treated it as a traditional martial art for physical fitness.

If it weren't for being forced to practice by the master since he was a child, he would have become accustomed to nature after the age of five, and even watched some martial arts movies and Xianxia novels in middle school, and he had a second illness in middle school, so he was more interested in this aspect of things. Chenxing really can't just stick to the habit of meditating instead of sleeping all the time.

After all, after the age of ten, the master rarely cares about Chenxing's life, and in this era, there are too many entertainment items for children to come into contact with, and there are countless temptations. Another person asked him to spend his evening games in exchange for this boring meditation practice. He's not going to do it.

After all, the concept that science and technology are the last word has long been ingrained in the minds of modern people.

And the master himself doesn't look like a 'Taoist man' who has achieved cultivation (even if he has a formal Taoist license, it is said that he also has a Taoist temple on the mountain under his name), otherwise he would not have thrown away his old business of watching palmistry fortune-telling and feng shui to choose a cemetery, and went to a nightclub to become a wine seller. Forget about selling alcohol, you have to talk to the little girl with the image of a middle-aged uncle with a half-cut long beard, so that Chenxing and several comrades in the police station have become good friends who pour bitter water on each other when he was a teenager.

As for the master saying that he was an orphan who was picked up and raised, Chenxing became more and more convinced, after all, no matter how handsome he looked, it was impossible to match the old and unobtrusive image of the master.

My thoughts drifted for a while, and finally I returned to square one.

'The book that the master gave himself is indeed amazing!'

It seems that he is going to move out of the dormitory to live, but in fact, Chenxing had this idea as early as last year.

But first, he is financially constrained, and the financial burden is a bit big for him if he rents a house off campus. Second, I have a good relationship with several roommates in the dormitory, and I don't resist the collective life of the dormitory students. It's a good choice to live in a dormitory.

But now, it's better not to let ordinary people know the secrets on your body.

In front of him, the scenery in the room became extremely clear, whether it was the texture of the wooden bed board or the lacquer surface of the tables, chairs and benches, everything was in his eyes, even the fine gray particles in the air that had just been brought out by the turbidity he exhaled, in the morning light.

In my ears, the heartbeat of myself and the three roommates who were still meeting with Zhou was like a drumbeat, knock dong ~ dong dong, striking a fixed and soothing rhythm, and even the sound of blood flow in my body could be distinguished. The sound of flying insects flapping their wings in the room and the cheerful cry of early birds in the forest outside.

In the body, a new stream of warm heat flowed through the body like a trickle, they did not travel along the blood vessels, and Chenxing could clearly feel that there seemed to be another passage in the flesh and blood, such as the riverbeds that had been prepared for them to gallop on, but these riverbeds seemed to have waited too long, they had long since dried up and cracked, and the warm current would dry up and wet as it flowed, and healed the cracks and cracks that had cracked.

The flow of this stream, nourishing and moisturizing, makes Chenxing have an indescribable sense of comfort, as if a person who has been sick for a long time is gradually healing, his body is recovering a little bit, and the strength lost due to illness is gradually recovering with healing.

The sense of power slowly filled the limbs, and Chenxing only clenched his fists slightly, and the bones of his palms were squeezed out with a series of crackling sounds. And he can clearly feel that with the passage of time, the moisture of this warm current will also strengthen these bones and joints, or it will not be long before he can pinch this kind of popping sound again. The strengthened articular cartilage becomes more resilient and elastic and no longer makes the sound of the two bones colliding.

Although only you know the changes in your body, no one can say that if you don't pay attention to it, you will show some abnormalities that will never appear in ordinary people.

Chenxing looked at his right hand clenched into a fist, and the sense of power that he had never felt before gathered in the palm of his fingers, and wisps of heat flowed into the bones and muscles of his right hand along the unknown channel, this heat flow seemed to be controllable with his mind, but for a while Chenxing was not familiar with it, and needed more exploration and practice.

Letting go of his fist, Chenxing finally gave up the idea of trying to punch it, he was worried that this punch would wake up the other three, and he could make up a lie to fool him, but it would be better to have less trouble than this kind of thing.

If you tell a lie, you must cover it up with more lies.

I got up a little early today, but at this time, I didn't feel sleepy, and Chenxing was very energetic, and even wanted to run dozens of laps on the playground to vent the burning restlessness in my body.

yes, that's the way to do it. At this time, the school playground should be unoccupied, and it should be okay to run a few laps.

The idea is certain, and Chenxing immediately takes action. After getting out of bed and changing his clothes, pants, shoes and socks, he threw the change of clothes into the washing machine in the dormitory laundry room, and took the elevator from the ninth floor of the dormitory to the hall on the first floor with great interest.

All the way down, there were no other passengers in the elevator, and naturally fell straight down to the first floor, and out of the elevator room, you could see three early brothers yawning while pacing outside the dormitory building.

"The junior brother is really fighting, too, now at the end of May, the end of the semester is not far away, and the end of the junior year is their last chance if they want to get some more grades.

In the senior year, the senior brothers are busy with internships, job hunting and graduation theses, and then they have to go out into the society to go their own way. ”

After all, job hunting, employment, and making a living in the future are the main tone of life, and a glory of sports clubs can only be a highlight moment of a student's career, but it cannot be exchanged for excellent living resources. Chenxing sighed in his heart.

Graduation, employment, buying a house, getting married, and raising offspring are the lives of ordinary people, and they are the main tasks around the busyness of life.

But if you think about it carefully, your life will probably be like this, even if the changes in your body now make you no longer able to equate yourself with ordinary people, but no matter how wonderful your future life is, aren't these inevitable processes that need to be experienced?

Could it be that if you become a person with special abilities, you don't need to eat, drink, and have children, and you don't need to get married and have children? Even the protagonist of the Xianxia novel story who scares the sky and the air still has to run around and fight in order to improve his cultivation, and fight to the death for the fairy, saint, and peerless beauty he likes. After the last vigorous wedding, isn't it time to have a child and live?

Therefore, after turning around, the lives of ordinary people and cultivators are essentially no different.

Chenxing thought of so many things just by looking at the senior brothers in front of him, and all kinds of thoughts flew like snow falling, and pieces of them disappeared in his consciousness.

In the end, it only turned into a wry smile.

I think so much about what to do, these are far away from me after all. It's really an idle egg, it's a pain to worry about.

"Senior brother, good morning. "Since it happened, Chenxing can't be silent.

"Oh... Oh, this junior brother is early. You're up early enough. The three senior brothers were stunned for a moment, and nodded hesitantly in response.

"Senior brother must have something to do when he got up so early, right? Look at the few of us, if it weren't for the last time to shine, we would still be cooking pig's heads in bed. ”

"yes, at this time last year, I didn't get out of bed until I had morning classes. ”

One of the chubby senior brothers was pulled up by the other two at first glance. It was as if his eyes hadn't opened yet, and he was sleepwalking.

"I just can't sleep, go out for a walk. Chenxing smiled and nodded, striding past the three of them.

"Hey~ Senior brother, this is insomnia, aren't you in a hurry to meet your girlfriend early in the morning?"

"Hey, hey, I think I just talked about my girlfriend, but I was still staying downstairs in the girls' dormitory early in the morning to deliver breakfast. ”

"Don't say it, the years are really in a hurry, and now I think back to the time when I fell in love last year, it has become a beautiful green memory, ah ~ my youth ~ ....."

Chenxing stumbled under his feet, and quickly quickened his pace and ran away. Although I'm a sophomore, I haven't talked about a girlfriend yet, who are you talking to?

Tianlan College, where Chenxing studied, is located in a hilly area near the outskirts of Cheonan City, surrounded by mountains, and the air is exceptionally fresh and pleasant. The men's dormitory is built on the hill, with a dormitory avenue extending south to the foot of the hill and joining the main campus road, Tianlan Avenue, and the female dormitory at the foot of the lower hill, where the two dormitory avenues converge halfway.

There are two open-air stadiums, a roofed gymnasium, a library, laboratory buildings, teaching buildings, various sports venues, teacher dormitories and expensive rental dormitories.

Named after the Tianlan Mountains outside Tian'an City, and this large area of rolling hills also forms the back garden of Tianlan College, so the total area is difficult to calculate.

The two stadiums are one large and one small, the large ones are complete and more modern. The small one is relatively simple, with only some basic functions, more similar to the playground used by the school for students to conduct exercises and physical education classes in middle school, so the students affectionately call the small one the playground, and the big one is called the stadium.

The playground is about a kilometre away from the boys' dormitory building, and there is a branch road on the side of the dormitory avenue. If you're willing to take a long detour, you can also pass by a small man-made lake.

The water is sweet and sweet, and the water is blue and turquoise because of its mineral richness, and when you look down from the upper floors of the dormitory building, it looks like a piece of jade embedded in the verdant mountains, and the blue lake in the col in the distance.

On the occasion of the early summer, walking in the forest path, the air breathed is not only fresh and natural, but also with the fragrance of wisps of flowers and trees, the insects and birds are endless, the morning breeze is refreshing and refreshing, and a gust of wind provokes countless green and new leaves to sway and dance, and the rustling sound is like a tide, so that people's mood is stirring and undulating.

At this time, it was just after five o'clock, and the morning mist in the mountains had not yet been dispelled by the morning sun, and it was like a thin gauze mist spread on the forest ground.

Chenxing walked on the stone path in the forest, as if walking on the clouds, the stone pavement at the foot was all covered by the morning mist veil, although it was not clear to see the road, when the veil fog was pushed away by the wind brought by the legs and feet, but there was also a taste of chasing the wind through the clouds.

In the past, Chenxing got up early, but he went directly to the off-campus commercial street to eat breakfast, and then went to the library to read and study, but he missed the magnificent scenery of the mountains and forests.

"I still remember that Tianlan morning fog is a famous scenery of the college, I am really ashamed, I studied in the college for almost two years but I didn't pay attention to appreciate it, if I didn't happen to catch up today, I am afraid that I will not think of it in the future to pay attention to the beautiful scenery around me."

Since you're here, let's just watch it with Qingbi Shuangri. ”

Chenxing thought, there is a fork in the road in front of the road, and there is a fast sign at the fork, indicating the direction of the artificial lake and the introduction of the scenery, if you don't know that this is in the academy, outsiders will probably think that you have entered a tourist attraction.

Qingbi Shuangsun refers to the scenery of watching the sunrise on the shore of the artificial lake, because the brilliance of the morning sun is not strong, and part of the strong light is filtered by the morning fog, and the shadow cast on the lake surface will be rendered by the blue and blue color of the lake, thus forming a round of bright golden sunrise in the sky and a round of light blue shadow on the lake surface. However, this view can only be seen in the mornings from late spring to early autumn, when the morning fog in the mountains is lighter in early spring and late autumn, and even less foggy in winter.

Following the path briskly, kicking away the layers of clouds, Morning Star was in a happy mood for no reason, and couldn't help but hum along with a piece of music that he had recently learned, which was relatively popular recently, and could be heard everywhere on the commercial street outside the school, and it was difficult to learn it.

Lalala~~lala~~mmmmmm~~

Just as Chenxing was humming happily, a beautiful melody seemed to be whispering in his ears and like some kind of wonderful resonance, leisurely floating into his cochlea and appearing in his sea of consciousness.

This beautiful melody that suddenly appeared shocked Chenxing, could it be that which classmate practiced singing skills in the woods in the morning?

Tianlan Academy is most famous for its vocal music department, and it is not uncommon for someone to practice singing skills in the morning.

It should be a girl. Chenxing heard that it was a female voice, so he stopped humming and listened carefully, trying to find the source of the sound.

But when he listened carefully, he lost this beautiful melody again.

With my current hearing, I shouldn't be unable to hear it, and the humming just now doesn't feel like it's going to stop. It's weird. ’

Chenxing frowned, a little confused. After listening carefully for a while, I still couldn't hear any sounds other than natural sounds such as insects chirping and birds chirping.

"This is really strange, could it be that I just had an auditory hallucination?" Chenxing continued to move forward, seeing that there was already a faint golden glow at the top of the canopy, it was obvious that the morning sun was about to rise, and if he delayed for a while, he would miss the view of the blue and blue sun.

The artificial lake is close in front of you, as long as you bypass a dense bamboo forest cultivated on the side, it is the trestle bridge on the shore of the artificial lake, and the fluffy flower spikes on the top of the reeds in the shallow water on both sides of the trestle have jumped into the corner of the star's field of vision. A gauzy morning mist permeated the reeds, rolling out cascading waves as the swaying of the reed spikes.

Whoa~!

There is the sound of water.

"The sound of the water that can be heard at this distance is obviously not the movement of the carp stocked in the lake. Could it be that someone stumbled and fell into the water?" Chen Xing was shocked in his heart and rushed to run.

"This classmate insist, I'll come to save you right away!" He took three steps and made two steps, the whole person seemed to turn into a shooting star, the morning mist under his feet turned to both sides like a splash of water breaking in the surf, the boy quickly bypassed the bamboo forest, and rushed to the trestle with the sound of the water, the wooden planks made an unbearable wail under his feet, and the creaking sound broke the silence in the air.

Chenxing rushed to the end of the trestle, didn't care about taking off his shoes and socks, and flew up directly, but his eyes kept patrolling the lake in mid-air, looking for the classmate who fell into the water.

"Classmate!!, I'm here!

Crash~!

At this moment, a splash of water bloomed from the surface of the blue and blue lake, and the white splash was plated with a layer of brilliant golden morning light, and the surrounding lake surface was hazy and hazy. This scenery is like a golden and white fairy flower blooming in the wind in a mythical fairyland.

And the stamen spit out by this flower, this is a graceful figure, she rushed into the center of the star's sight with a fine splash of water, a thin gauzy mist, and a rainbow of light formed by the morning glow reflected on the fine mist of water.

"Who?"

She was draped in a brilliant golden morning glow, her skin as white as jade was glowing, and her graceful figure was like the most exquisite and beautiful sculpture in the world. All the words of praise that Chenxing could think of were stacked together to describe her beauty at this moment.

But as soon as the word perfect floated from the mind of the young man who had risen into the air, he was shattered by the scenery he saw in the next moment.

It was a purple-black scar that ran from the left side of the chest to the right side of the waist and abdomen, the scar was as hideous as a centipede lying on the surface of human skin, and the raised back carapace was shiny.

Chenxing had already seen it at this time, this classmate obviously did not fall into the water, how could a person who fell into the water not wear clothes?

The two of them were in the water and the other in mid-air, and they both saw each other's stunned and panicked expressions, and time seemed to freeze for a while.

"Ahh

The girl in the water was the first to scream, and then raised her hand to smash something she was holding on to the star. Chenxing, who was still in free fall, was hit in the face by a huge force, and his body lost his balance, according to the parabola that originally leaped up, he should have flown over the girl's head and fell into the lake a few meters away.

Coincidentally, the foreheads, nose bridges, and lips of the two slammed together, making a muffled sound of dong~!, and the falling star smashed the girl who came out of the water back.

Once again, a huge splash bloomed on the turquoise surface of the lake, and the golden morning sun gilded it with a layer of magnificent color. This time the stamens of the flowers are four human feet.

"It turned out to be a fish. Before Chenxing lost consciousness, he saw the culprit who smashed himself down, a three-colored koi.

The two who collided with each other became entangled and sank to the bottom of the lake.
