Chapter 0006 - The Heart of Seeking Immortality
Going to Guangyi County to find you? This thought just passed through his mind for a while, because it was really too cold, Niu You Dao didn't have the heart to consider this, nor did he intend to go to find the other person, he wasn't interested in these officials and soldiers.
Watching people go, confirming that they are indeed gone, teeth chattering Niu You Dao laboriously climbed up the bamboo row.
Do not come out okay, once out of the water blowing the cold wind, it is called a sour, even colder, shivering, teeth click click click non-stop, cold and hungry. He really wanted to jump back into the water, maybe a little warmer, but he knew that it was no different from boiling a frog in warm water, and once he realized that something was wrong, he probably would never be able to climb up from the water again.
He felt out the fire to try to roast the fire, only to find that it was also soaked, and could not be used.
See thrown on the bamboo row has not nibbled a few mouth of grilled fish, hurriedly grabbed, stiff fingers cupped in the hands of shivering bite, trying to find ways to replenish energy, the body heat seems to have been consumed, that is from the bones of the cold out of the strength of the people feel like freezing, surrounded by the middle of nowhere, can't see the signs of human signs for help.
Later found that not, the whole person's perception seems to be a bit wooden, drowsy want to sleep.
He clearly knew that he could not sleep, this is self-numbing, the body in this condition once asleep, do not want to wake up.
Eyes cast to the river bank, want to lean on the bank to shore, but the body is already frozen, the body can not help, consciousness involuntarily gradually sink.
Just in the moment when he was about to fall into a stupor, he seemed to dream of leaning against a fireplace, his back was hot, and he woke up again with a jolt.
Giggling, he crawled up and froze, realizing that the wet cotton shirt on his body was steaming.
His body wasn't cold anymore, and a certain part of his back was even hotter, and a rolling stream of heat continued to be directed to his limbs and bones, dispelling all the coldness.
Before was the feeling of freezing, but now gradually have a hot and dry feeling.
This is also only slightly strange for a moment, and then thought for a moment, the back of that heat source is exactly Dong Guo Haoran gave him into the amulet of the acupoints, so think about it will understand, at the same time also feel unimaginable, Dong Guo Haoran's internal power harnessing is actually so magical? This more and more inspired him to want to go to the Shangqing Sect to have a look, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was the heart of seeking immortality.
The heat is unbearable, he wanted to meditate to guide this heat flow, but this body does not have that capital, there is no minimum foundation for the transportation of energy, there is no guided true qi in the body, unable to travel qi, relying on empty thoughts is useless.
Secondly, I don't know whether my body is suitable for cultivation or not, to apply the words of people in cultivation, that is the root and bone, not everyone is suitable for practicing qi, in fact, most people are not suitable. The reason for the problem lies in the different physical conditions of each person, practicing qi on the distribution of the body meridians higher requirements, the meridians are like the internal branches of the human body, the main branches of the human body is similar, the branches may not be the same, like the same kind of trees, the shape of the growth may not be the same.
Some people may not even be the same as the main branches of the body meridians, and even the heart grows on the other side of the chest cavity of the people have.
Roots and bones can not, that is, the physical conditions can not be people, is not unable to practice qi, but can only practice some simple qigong, can prolong life and so on the art of vomiting, those profound, on the line of qi conditions require a more complex cultivation techniques is no way to practice.
In the end, it is really a little hot, Niu Youdao used cold water to puff his face, and even unzipped the lapel to blow the cold wind, the body of the broken cotton jacket is still in the heat, the skin is red.
Clean up the arrow feathers on the bamboo row, Niu Youdao noticed the female general shot that side of the nameplate, not big, dark red round piece, one side of the carving of a winged phoenix, one side of the carving of a "male" character.
"Small Seal Script ......" stared at the script and muttered, his eyes filled with bewilderment.
The font used here was actually the Small Seal Script? With the line of work he had been in, he was naturally not unfamiliar with the small seal script and could easily recognize it.
What puzzled him was that the people in this world spoke Mandarin, but the font was in small seal script, which seemed a bit cluttered with the world he was familiar with, but on the other hand, if he looked at the world he had come from the perspective of this world, perhaps it was the world he was familiar with that was cluttered, which side was cluttered, he didn't know the answer to that, and was at a loss.
The bamboo raft had also entered the mountain river rapids, drifting at a rapid speed, and began to lurch and undulate.
Niu Youdao who came back to his senses hurriedly put away a series of fishing small organs behind the bamboo raft, the road is farther, the back may still come in handy, can't be ruined in this complicated waterway. Penny already in hand, in the turbulent canyon river left support right support, open lapel facing the cold wind in the occasional splash in the waves and the wind and waves, skillful movements, he obviously has the experience of driving in this area, not surprised by the changes, the scene is magnificent and thrilling.
After the dangerous beach, the current and calm down, cattle have Tao has been paralyzed with fatigue, grabbed a dead fish on the bamboo raft to eat raw, a bright moon over the mountains.
Quite have both sides of the ape cries not exhaustive, light boat has passed the flavor of the mountains, bamboo row out of the mountains, the rising sun out of the horizon, but also find a place to shore.
The heat of the body also gradually dissipated, the cold again, looking for a suitable terrain, waving a hoe dug a nest, picked up dry wood dragged to the dead trees, drilling wood for fire, lying in the hot fire in the bed to sleep over.
Woke up and set off again.
Cold wind in the sun, bleak night with a river of bright moonlight, the sun and the moon.
The rapid water with a Penny, seemingly calm dead quiet place is manipulated with a simple wooden paddle in that rowing.
Through the hardships, but also enjoy themselves, his life experience is enough to cope with the cruelty of nature.
A few days later, the river seems to be calm, the flow rate is extremely fast, cattle have a look will know that there must be similar to the existence of waterfalls of the cliffs in front, not long really heard the sound of rumbling waterfalls from afar, estimated that the so-called waterfalls of Dongguo Haoran should be to.
Surveying the surrounding area, hidden in the distance there is a magnificent place of mountains and forests, Dong Guo Haoran words explain simple but very clear, must be that place is that the so-called Zhongling Yuxiu place, immediately manipulate the wooden paddle desperately paddle, struggling in the rapids and leaned against the shore, exhausting the effort to drag Dong Guo Haoran's body ashore, and then watched the bamboo row quickly downstream, not far away from the cocked tail, carrying a pile of dry firewood fell and disappeared.
Pulled out the diagonally inserted in the back tied to the waist of the wood knife, near the cut some trees and rattan and so on, made a similar simple stretcher things, will Dong Guo Haoran's body put up, rattan woven rope set on the shoulder, lifted the stretcher head handle in hand drag, shoulder pull hand drag, all the way dragging and dragging, difficult to go forward.
Ordeal to the deep mountains, encountered a mountainous and steep place, the stretcher is really dragged immovable, thrown to the ground, like a dead dog, paralyzed under a tree, unlocked the waist of the bamboo tube filled with water, suddenly open throat yelled, "on the Qingzong's people are not in?"
Even roar a few voices, do not see any reaction in the mountains, he was ready to take a break, and then threw down Dong Guo Haoran alone to look for, suddenly heard a snort, I do not know what hit in the face of the pain, immediately lifted the firewood knife to climb up, around the survey.
Snort! Another sound hit in the face to eat pain, look up, only to see a large tree branches do not know when stood a gray-shirted young man, carrying a long sword, condescending to look at him coldly, scolded: "Where is the wild boy in this shouting?"
Niu You Dao's eyes lit up and asked joyfully, "Is it from the Shang Qing Sect?"
The young man said, "How does a wild boy like you know about the Shangqing Sect?"
As soon as he heard this, he understood that he hadn't found the wrong place, and with the firewood knife on his waist, Niu You Dao hurriedly tore the dirty cloth mantle wrapped around the stretcher, revealing Dong Guo Haoran's face, and pointing, he said, "Him, do you recognize him? Dong Guo Haoran, asked me to come to you."
The young man took a look and was startled, a flash dropped down, quickly checking to confirm, then fished out a rattling arrow and pulled it away to point at the sky, a cloud of smoke and fire emerged, swooshing up into the sky, snapping and exploding into sparks in the air.
A short while later, one after another a dozen people from the nearby canopy tops swept to, all turn over and fall in the air, Niu Youdao's eyes blinking ah blinking, secretly one is a good light skill.
The people who arrived all confirmed Dong Guo Haoran, and then someone shouted, "Quickly go to the clan to report!"
Immediately, someone dodged and scurried into the forest and disappeared, and the others each stared at Niu You Dao, eyeing him intently and surrounding him in a circle, but no one asked him about his situation.
Eventually, Luo Yuan Gong, Su Bro, and Tang Susu all heard the news, Tang Yi and Wei Dao also rushed here, and one after another, there were dozens of more people, and basically all of the inner disciples of the Shang Qing Sect had arrived.
After confirming Dong Guo Haoran's remains, each one of them looked at me and me at you, all of them looked a bit grave.
As Niu You Dao surveyed the reactions of the crowd, he looked at Tang Yi a little more, and realized that this girl stood out in the crowd, was pretty decent, and looked just like a fairy. However, he only saw that she looked pretty and appreciated it, he didn't have any other thoughts right now, he could tell from the crowd's reaction that Dong Guo Haoran's status in the Shangqing Sect was indeed not low.
After squatting beside Dong Guo Haoran and checking his injuries, Luo Yuanguang got up and looked at Niu Youdao, asking, "Little brother, did you bring the people?"
Niu Youdao nodded, "Yes."
Luo Yuanguang nodded, "Thank you, can you tell us the details of what happened?"
"I am a person from the small temple village three hundred miles away from here, due to the soldiers and bandits ransacking the village, I hid in the small temple in the mountain ......," Niu Youdao narrated the general situation, about the ancient bronze mirror following Dong Guo Haoran's orders, he would not talk nonsense before he knew which one was Tang Mu.
Just when he said Dong Guo Haoran accept him as a disciple, many of the inner disciples present face gradually changed, Tang Susu is like a cat that has been stepped on the tail, gaze sternly flashed, shouting to interrupt: "Dong Guo Haoran would not just accept a wild boy as a disciple, is simply full of nonsense, I'll shoot you!"
Not just talk, but really waved his palm to split, strong palm power whistled out, strong wind overflowed.
"Senior sister!" Luo Yuan Gong and Su Bro shouted in shock, but it was too late to stop them, not realizing that Tang Susu would suddenly strike, and the moment she did so, it was a killing move.
Some people probably guessed Tang Susu's intentions, Tang Mu had gone and passed on to Dong Guo Haoran!
Niu You Dao was shocked, he is not without a little eyesight, after all, he was also once a person in the cultivation, the power of this palm is really appalling, the palm force has not yet arrived has first squeezed him unable to breathe, really if he is hit by a palm, I am afraid that he will immediately die a violent death.
Such a close distance, such a violent attack power, not to mention he is now, even if he still had the strength of the past is not to avoid, the heart cursed this old crone ancestors eighteen generations, did not think that he actually came to the Qing clan to send death to the loss of their own also through the hardships of the initiative to bring the remains of Dongguo Haoran to the expression of goodwill.
In fact, Dong Guo Haoran did not let him bring the remains, as long as he found the Shangqing Sect, after the Shangqing Sect will naturally send people to find the remains, is that he Niu Youdao in order to express the sincerity of the self-found suffering.
