Chapter 51 Meteor from the sky
Qingshan Village, in the northwest corner of Yuzhou.
A boy of about twelve or thirteen was carrying two wild rabbits and pushed open the courtyard gate made of dead branches. Facing him were two rammed earth huts. A skinny old man with white hair and beard was lying on a rocking chair in front of the huts, enjoying the breeze from the woods.
"Grandpa Xu, this is what my father asked me to bring to you." The boy placed the rabbit next to the stove and brought firewood from the haystack behind the house.
"Gouwazi, has your father gone into the mountains to hunt again?" Old man Xu opened his cloudy eyes and tilted his head slightly. Although his clothes were worn out, they were clean.
"Yes, I also dug up some of the medicinal herbs grandpa mentioned before. I will send them to you after they are dried in the shade." Gouwazi was very diligent. He helped the old man clean the house while talking.
"Well, I've already prepared your mother's medicine, you can take it back with you."
"Thank you, Grandpa Xu."
"What are you thanking me for? Ever since your grandfather, I have eaten a lot of prey from your family. Your mother would come to help a useless old man like me with the cleaning and washing. If it weren't for your family, I wouldn't be able to live to this day."
"Grandpa Xu is the only pharmacist in the village. Everyone in the village has received your kindness. A good person like you will surely live a long life."
"Haha, live a hundred years, live a hundred years." Old man Xu laughed happily, but there was a meaningful look in his cloudy eyes.
After Gouwazi left, Xutouzi still didn't get up. The tattered wooden rocking chair kept rocking slowly.
The village is surrounded by mountains and forests, with lush greenery, small bridges, flowing streams, and fresh water vapor. The mountains are rich in resources and isolated from the outside world. The villagers are simple and honest, and have been born and buried here for generations. It is like a paradise.
"Hmph, live a long life!" Old man Xu showed a sarcastic look on his face and murmured with disdain.
"Haha, the number one swordsman of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect has actually been hiding in this small mountain village for decades. Even if those reckless people knew about it, I'm afraid they wouldn't believe it, right?"
Xu Buwen, the number one swordsman of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect, was a swordsman in the Sword Realm who cut off Lu Changge's foundation with a single sword strike on the mountain and sea battlefield, causing him to fall into the mortal world.
At this moment, Xu Buwen's wrinkled face darkened slightly, and another low voice came out of his mouth.
"Isn't this good? This little mountain village is so beautiful. There is no intrigue like the outside world. Everything is so simple, from birth to death. Without so many pursuits, naturally there won't be too many worries." Xu Buwen seemed to be immersed in beautiful memories.
"Humph, that sounds nice, but I don't know who you, the Seven Emotions Sword Sect, are. You are a group of heartless and desireless people. If I have a choice, I don't want to be your ally."
"You are wrong. We were affectionate at first and then ruthless!"
"That's why I say you are crazy!"
There was a brief silence in the courtyard, and after a moment, the voice sounded again.
"How long are you going to stay here?"
"Why are you in such a hurry? For a monster like you who has a long life span, shouldn't time be the least valuable? I'm not in a hurry, so why are you in such a hurry?"
"No matter how long I live, I can't stand watching your disgusting performance for decades. You're not embarrassed, but I am!"
"I asked you to find a warrior's body a long time ago. Anyway, there is no difference between changing bodies and changing clothes. You are just cooperating. There is no need to be tied together all the time." Xu Buwen didn't care about the other party's tone and said slowly, like a real old man.
The courtyard fell silent again, but when the words "changing bodies is no different from changing clothes" were spoken, the other party's identity was self-evident, a soul cultivator from the Hell Soul Realm!
For the monks in the Hell Soul Realm, the soul is the foundation and the body is just a temporary house. For the people in the other two realms, they are synonymous with weirdness and are extremely difficult to kill.
"You still haven't given up on the Mengshen Sect? You are just a small swordsman from the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. You want to plan to attack Chongming Realm, but you are overestimating your own abilities!" "No, I'm just interested in the secrets of the Mengshen Sect. Their control over the territory is the best in Chongming Realm. Over the years, I have traveled through Lingzhou, Shunzhou, and Yuzhou, but I dare not enter Dongzhou!"
"So that's why you..."
"You'd better stay out of my business!"
"Hmph, I'm not interested in your games, it's just... huh?"
At this moment, the entire Chongming Realm shook slightly, but only the strong could feel it. Hundreds of meteors flew from the sky, drawing brilliant tracks in the sky above Yuzhou. Each meteor carried a strong breath of destruction and fell all the way to the northwest.
"That direction..."
The next moment, Xu Buwen disappeared from the rocking chair and left the small mountain village where he had lived for decades.
……
Sky-breaking Canyon.
Jiang Bai and his group moved slowly forward in the canyon. The fog was like a sky cover, blocking the sun, moon and stars, separating this place from the outside world into two different worlds.
"Except for some herbs and wild beasts, there doesn't seem to be anything special here. Does the so-called opportunity really exist?"
"I don't know whether there is an opportunity or not, but there are many people who don't know whether they live or die!" As he said that, a pistol appeared in Jiang Bai's hand and he threw it to the left. Two figures flashed by, but were killed by others the next moment.
Here, the identity of a disciple is not very useful. It is difficult to track down the murderer if someone dies, and it is not uncommon for fellow disciples to kill each other. Therefore, except for dreamers who are looking for opportunities, hunting each other for resources is the norm, and disciples who come to visit will receive special attention.
It’s simple, the disciples here are rich!
Along the way, the group had killed hundreds of warriors who had ideas about them, but they had found nothing valuable, just odds and ends.
In the fog, Gu Hongyu carefully concealed his breath and stayed far behind the group of people, but for some reason, his heart suddenly felt a little beating, a feeling he had not had in many years.
in danger?
Is there a powerful person hiding in this Tianduan Canyon who poses a threat to him?
Before Gu Hongyu could think about it, a number of meteors wrapped in flames broke through the thick fog in the sky and entered everyone's field of vision.
"This is……"
Seeing this scene, Gu Hongyu's eyes were about to burst. Without thinking too much, he rushed directly towards Jiang Bai in front of him. The special power of Tianduan Canyon affected his perception, otherwise he should have discovered the arrival of this natural disaster long ago.
Jiang Bai and others were even more unbearable. The huge force pressed down on them like a mountain, making them unable to move at all. They could only watch the meteors falling into the canyon with devastating power.
Boom, boom, boom...
The clouds rolled and sparks shot into the sky.
A terrifying impact force swept across, and the breath of destruction collided with the mystery in the canyon. Various life-saving items on Jiang Bai and others kept lighting up, and then shattered in an instant. Some people were directly turned into powder under this force.
The breath of destruction that came towards him made Jiang Bai feel that his body and soul were so insignificant in front of it. He would be killed if he was contaminated by it even a little bit, but he was powerless to resist.
Dying?
