Chapter 4, Bottom of the Valley
Zhu Yuanlong fell off the cliff and fell into a coma. I don’t know how long it took, but when Zhu Yuanlong opened his eyes, he found that he was at a small lake, half of his body was still soaked in the water. The green lake water was extremely cold. The cold air penetrated into the heart and bone marrow. It felt that the lower half of his body in the water had lost consciousness. Zhu Yuanlong struggled to climb out of the lake and sat by the lake in a daze. Where is this? Who am I? How could I be here? Some questions made Zhu Yuanlong unable to reflect it at once, and he felt a violent pain in his head, like a crack.
Zhu Yuanlong touched his backpack, and there were only a few pieces of clothes inside, and he couldn't find anything to prove his identity.
"Ah!!!" Suddenly, he heard a sad cry not far away. Zhu Yuanlong followed the sound to a cave by the water. He saw an old man with white hair sitting decadently, holding an open book in his hand, and a crystal tower was placed next to him, murmured, "My cultivation has been destroyed for thousands of years, wuwu, haha..." Zhu Yuanlong was afraid of the symptoms of the old man's epilepsy.
The old man found Zhu Yuanlong at the entrance of the cave at this moment, and reached out to suck his hand in the air. He saw that Zhu Yuanlong was sucked by the old man like a fallen leaf. His skeleton-like hands pinched Zhu Yuanlong's neck. Zhu Yuanlong couldn't breathe, his eyes turned white, and his face was swollen.
"Tell me, who sent you to harm me? Is it that old thing Xuanzhen?" The old man was furious and saw that Zhu Yuanlong had no longer struggled, so he put down his hand. He used his middle fingers to explore Zhu Yuanlong's veins, frowned, and pressed Zhu Yuanlong's Baihui acupoint with his palm. He saw thick white smoke coming out of Zhu Yuanlong's head.
"Ahem..." Zhu Yuanlong woke up, and the glaring old man hurt people indiscriminately.
"Boy, please tell me who sent you here. If you don't tell the truth, I will make you lose all your money." The old man glared at Zhu Yuanlong
"I don't know why I'm here. When I woke up, I lay in the lake in front." Zhu Yuanlong himself didn't know why he was here.
"Haha, something that doesn't know how to tell lies in front of me and seek death." The old man's laughter was deafening, and Zhu Yuanlong couldn't help but hold his ears with both hands.
In fact, the old man had long seen Zhu Yuanlong lying in the lake, but he didn't expect that he was still alive. Youbi Lake is a lake water formed by gathering the cold and cold air of heaven and earth. Its extraordinary poison is as cold as an ice blade. Not to mention that ordinary people will die if they fall into the lake, they will die even if they are close to one hundred meters. The Beiming Xuan Ice Kung Fu master he has practiced for thousands of years can only last for an hour in the lake. Since this kid has been in it for two days and two nights, he can still walk out.
The old man grabbed Zhu Yuanlong's hand and pressed Zhu Yuanlong's pulse with two fingers. He only felt that the connections in front of him were stable, but there was no sign of true energy in his body.
His fingers clicked Tiantu, Xuan Ji, Zhongfu, Qihai. Zhu Yuanlong did not react at all. The old man was depressed. According to the principles, the person who practiced was guided by Yin Ming to these acupoints. The true qi reversed and condensed, and he would be disabled even if he did not die. Now that this kid is fine, is he really not a practitioner? Could it be that he was not a practitioner? Didn’t he sent by Xuanzhen?
Then why did the Demon Refining Tower and the Fairy-Devouring Heavenly Book appear on him? "How did you get the Demon Refining Tower and the Fairy-Devouring Heavenly Book?"
"Boss, I really can't remember anything about the past. It's not that I deliberately lied to you. Besides, I don't know what it is about the Demon Refining Tower and the Immortal Devouring Heavenly Book. If you like it, just take it away." Zhu Yuanlong said innocently.
Although the old man thought Zhu Yuanlong said something strange, he could not see that Zhu Yuanlong didn't seem to be lying to him, nor could he see that Zhu Yuanlong had any fear on his face. It can be seen that Zhu Yuanlong is indeed not a cultivator, but he just touched his body bones, which was a piece of cultivation material. His life's skills were sucked by the Immortal Devouring Heavenly Book to be less than 20% of his life. He didn't have much time left. It would be better to take a disciple to let him have an inheritor in his practice skills and fulfill his wish.
"Boy, please worship me Xie Wudao as your teacher. I will pass on you Beiming Xuanbing Technology, but I have another condition. After a hundred years of training, I will go out and help me remove the old Xuanzhen of the Xianwu Sect from the Immortal Martial Arts." The old man said, with a deep resentment in his eyes.
Zhu Yuanlong knew that it was the name of the evil demon heretic when he heard "Xie Wudao" one day. He felt a little disgusted and looked disdainful of Xie Wudao. But when he thought about leaving this ghost place, he felt a little happy. But killing people is absolutely necessary, let alone a cruel thing as if it were so cruel. It would be illegal. Besides, it took a hundred years to practice. I have seen the King of Hell a long time ago.
"My uncle, you'd better not accept me as an apprentice. First, I can't do anything illegal like killing and setting fire. Second, a hundred years later, even if I don't die, I already have Alzheimer's disease." Zhu Yuanlong said disapprovingly, looking at Xie Wudao with suspicious eyes, as if thinking about whether Xie Wudao has Alzheimer's disease.
"I warn you, put away your eyes like this, I don't have Alzheimer's disease..." Xie Wudao said.
"Well, that's good, are you sure?" Zhu Yuanlong was still a little doubtful. He was too suspicious of Xie Wudao's words.
"You" Xie Wudao acted like he wanted to kill someone.
"Okay, I won't say it..."
This surprised Xie Wudao. Since someone didn't agree with his name and was not afraid, this was the first time. If an immortal cultivator had already been scared, let alone talk to him like this. Secondly, he was unwilling to be his master. How many people wanted to join them (of course, they were people in the evil path) and could benefit for life with his guidance. Now some people refuse to be his master. If it were his temper just came in here a hundred years ago, I'm afraid this kid would have died at least dozens of times.
"You ungrateful guy, you have to bow your head if you don't bow today." Xie Wudao pointed in the air, and Zhu Yuanlong couldn't help but kneel down. The stubborn Zhu Yuanlong tried hard to get up, but an invisible pressure pressed him down, making him unable to move. He was willing to take you as his teacher and do those murder and setting fires for you. I am not so stupid.
Zhu Yuanlong lay back and lay on his back on the ground. The stone chair who died with both hands refused to get up. Xie Wudao was not angry, and there was a hint of comfort on his face, "You are a stubborn guy, just like me back then." Xie Wudao felt a little comforted, but he did not continue to make things difficult for him.
Suddenly, Zhu Yuanlong's stomach rumbling, Xie Wudao laughed loudly, pointing to the lake in front of him, where there were fish in the lake, you can catch a few, Zhu Yuanlong nodded and came to the Youbi Lake. He poked the wooden stick for a long time but couldn't poke a fish. He could only see the fish swimming around in the water, like a naked mocking Zhu Yuanlong, not being alarmed by Zhu Yuanlong.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind, "The little ghost goes to the pond to catch it." Zhu Yuanlong felt unhappy, "Damn, the water in this pond is so cold. When he crawled out today, he was so cold that his whole body was numb. Not to mention that his skills in the water were not very good, even if he swam faster than fish, he would be frozen to death..." Before Zhu Yuanlong could finish his thoughts, he suddenly pushed him into the water and drank a few sips of water.
He was immediately angry, "Damn old man, you want to kill me, cough cough." Zhu Yuanlong was trembling in the water with cold, and could only endure the cold and touch it randomly. After an hour, there was no fish, and his face was already purple with cold.
At this time, Xie Wudao floated out, reached out and sucked Zhu Yuanlong out of the lake. When he left the lake, he felt much warmer. He saw Xie Wudao stretching his hands towards the lake, bent his fingers and used force. The fish in the water were sucked out like an iron encountered a magnet.
Seeing Zhu Yuanlong trembling with cold beside him, Xie Wudao pressed his hand against Zhu Yuanlong's back, and a heat was poured into Zhu Yuanlong's body continuously, and a mist was emitted from his body.
He lifted the fish back into the cave, but Zhu Yuanlong couldn't find a pot to cook the fish. Fortunately, there was a lighter in his bag. He was about to take out the lighter and turn on the fire. A cold wind blew out the fire. "Boy, you're dead. It's full of miasma and biogas. An explosion will occur at a little fire. Then even the gods can't save you." Zhu Yuanlong was so scared that he stuck out his tongue, and a false alarm.
"How do you eat it?" Zhu Yuanlong asked stupidly.
Xie Wudao was too lazy to take care of him, so he picked up the fish and bit it. He saw white liquid flowing out of the fish body. Zhu Yuanlong couldn't help but scream, "White fish blood, is it an alien fish?" Xie Wudao looked at Zhu Yuanlong with disdain, as if saying, "It's really terrible to be uneducated."
"Well, white is better than red, it's not that bloody." Zhu Yuanlong took out a Swiss knife and cut the fish body into pieces. He saw the white blood covered with fish meat, as if he was coated with salad sauce on the fish meat. When he was about to eat it, he was knocked over by Xie Wudao. It was easy to get the ginseng. Zhu Yuanlong was about to start scolding, but was disdained by Xie Wudao and said, "As soon as this fish dies, the fish and blood are highly poisonous. If you want to die, take it away."
Zhu Yuanlong had no choice but to take a live fish and bite it. Although it had a few fishy smells, it was delicious. The fish melted in the mouth, and the sticky fish blood was as fresh as a seasoning sauce. It didn't take long for a fish to finish it, and my stomach felt the greatest satisfaction in the past few days. I was greedy for the deliciousness of the fish, and grabbed another one and was about to eat it, but it was knocked out by Xie Wudao's angrily.
Zhu Yuanlong looked at Xie Wudao in confusion, and felt that Xie Wudao was like a menopausal shrew, knocking off the things in his hands at any time. Xie Wudao seemed to know why he was about to ask, "You can only eat one at a time now. As for why, you will know later."
"If you don't eat, don't eat." Zhu Yuanlong, who filled his stomach, stood up and loosened his muscles and bones. Within a minute, he suddenly felt a fever all over his body. "I just caught a cold and had a little fever." The calories became stronger and stronger. After a while, my whole body became red and I felt that my internal organs were about to burn, "No, the fish are poisonous..."
Xie Wudao looked at Zhu Yuanlong indifferently in pain. After a while, Xie Wudao finally opened his mouth: "Now there are only two ways to save you. First, you climbed into the Netherworld Lake, but if you climbed over, your internal organs would be burned. The second is to do what I said." Zhu Yuanlong, who was extremely painful, could only nodded repeatedly.
"The turtle's tail raises the qi, the dantian refines the spirit, the qi goes down to the sea, the spirit gathers the heart of the sky, the qi condenses into ice, and the qi sword comes from the spirit." Xie Wudao was beside him and thoughts of Youdao. Unfortunately, Zhu Yuanlong didn't know what the dantian was, and what kind of dantian gathers and qi condenses. Xie Wudao had no way, so he could only use the self-organic Beiming Xuan Ice to transform the true energy in Zhu Yuanlong's body, and Zhu Yuanlong slowly recovered his normal body temperature.
"Waste is a rare treasure that is rare in a century. Eating a fish to guide the energy into it is equivalent to one person practicing for ten years. The white fish is regarded as a treasure elixir by cultivators."
"Although the strange fish gets hot after eating it, it tastes really good. However, eating it while soaking it in Nether Lake is definitely a top enjoyment."
"I see that your physique is different from that of ordinary people. Since you fall into Netherworld Lake, you can be safe and sound, it is a piece of martial arts material. Although it is a little late, tempering in Netherworld Lake can make your body progress several times or even dozens of times faster than that of ordinary people."
