Cultivation of Immortals Begins with Drilling Wood To Make Fire

"..."

The old turtle by the river was still in shock.

In the middle of the night, I was alone by the cold river under the moon, and when I was mourning and crying, a human suddenly appeared and talked to me.

This is too scary.

It's a pity that turtles don't have sweat glands, otherwise they would break out in cold sweat.

Unaware!

This human being came behind him in this way, the whole process was not silent, but he was emotionally aroused, and he didn't notice it at all. This was the first time that a monster had been born for more than a thousand years.

Fortunately, the tone behind the other party was gentle, and listening to the tone, there was a faint sense of concern or curiosity about his crying, not the kind that he subconsciously thought, suddenly appeared to give a name, and then cut off himself as a monster A violent practitioner.

This made him relax a little. After all, it seemed that if the other party wanted to kill him, he would definitely not be able to escape.

My speed on land is too slow, and now I am still a few feet away from the water. If the opponent makes a move, I probably won't have a chance to jump into the river, so I can only kill with my neck stretched.

After compose himself, the old tortoise lowered his vigilance a little, retracted his outstretched claws, and stretched his chubby head out of the shell at any time, and shouted:

"Brother, you are so silent, it's too scary!"

Being so frightened, Lao Gui didn't have the mood to cry anymore, but concentrated on dealing with the person in front of him.

The old turtle looked intently at the person who came, and saw that the person was dressed in plain clothes, with a thin silver hairpin inserted in the bun, with a handsome face and a rather long figure, standing under the moonlight, with the corners of the clothes and the tie fluttering with the night wind , Xiaoyao is not like a mortal figure.

What caught his attention the most was that when viewed from the front, there was a handle protruding from the back of the visitor, like a long sword, which made the old turtle feel fearful.

Fang Chang smiled slightly, like spring breeze melting snow: "I was negligent, sorry."

Hearing these words, the old turtle settled down a bit, and a little shame appeared on his chubby face: "It's because I lost my temper because of grief, and made my brother laugh."

Waving his hand, Fang Chang expressed his understanding.

However, the old turtle thought about the man in white in front of him, who should have a high level of cultivation and knowledge, and perhaps because of his own chance, he said what he was crying: "What I am sad about, little demon, is that I have not seen him for a long time." Shapeshifting."

"oh."

Fang Chang thought, this is another monster stuck at the transformation gate.

It seems that as a major hurdle on the path of monster cultivation, the transformation is really well-deserved. Situations like the old turtle are too common.

This level is like a big sieve, every monster has to go through it, but the mesh of the sieve is very fine, so only a small number of monsters can be lucky enough to seize the opportunity, be able to transform into a human, and find the way to practice later.

Words that have been suffocated for a long time are like a blocked sluice. Once there is a beginning, it will pour out and can no longer be blocked.

Therefore, the old turtle couldn't help but started talking to the stranger in front of him:

"I named myself Guiyuan. Counting from Kaihui, I am a thousand years old... I have been living in this river, I was born here and grew up here. But I have just developed my spiritual wisdom and refined it. The memories of those days in Henggu are so long gone."

"A thousand years is really too long. It was so long that I thought I could remember it for a lifetime, but it was gradually erased from my mind. Maybe at some point, there would be no trace."

"Now that more than half of my lifespan has passed, I practice diligently every day, but I still don't feel that the opportunity of transformation is approaching. I think that maybe this life is hopeless, and I can't help but feel sad, so I lean on the river and cry. I was bumped into by my brother. It’s really embarrassing.”

"I have been mediocre for most of my life, but I have nothing to make here. It is really 'the time is only feared, and half of my life has been wasted', alas..."

After all kinds of non-human creatures become demons with spiritual intelligence, their lifespans will have a leap, but the increased lifespans are also affected by their own lifespans.

Turtles are often difficult to transform, and most turtles do not live long, but this old turtle in front of me is a relatively rare long-lived species among turtles, but this brings about the difficulty of transforming him. double.

Seeing that the turtle demon was still ashamed of crying just now, Fang Chang cupped his hands and said, "I'm being rude."

The old turtle Guiyuan pondered slightly, and continued: "Brother is a person of great ability, I wonder if you can see how long it will take me to have a chance to transform?"

"Hmm." Fang Chang pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you ever eaten a human or a demon in these years?"

"No, I met an expert when I was young and told me about it. I never dared to try it, and I wasn't interested in it." The old turtle shook his head, "I was still a little demon at that time, and I was not qualified to cling, but I just strictly followed orders. .”

"That's good." Fang Chang said.

Then he thought, since he met himself, it was also the fate of the turtle demon in front of him, so he turned his eyes and looked above the turtle.

"The news is not good." Sighing in his heart, Fang Chang shook his head and said, the tortoise on the other side was shocked by his words, and he immediately gathered his energy to listen to Fang Chang's next words.

"From the point of view of my humble beginnings, there is no hope for Brother Gui's transformation in a hundred years."

He told the truth.

Gui Yuan's expression on the opposite side instantly dimmed.

Seeing the other party's appearance, Fang Chang cupped his hands and did not continue to speak.

The matter of fate cannot be forced, even if Fang Chang is already a successful practitioner, he can't break through it, and pushing the seedlings to encourage them will only be counterproductive.

The deep disappointment on Old Gui's face could not be concealed at all.

He saluted Fang Chang lightly, then turned his head lonely and jumped back into the river again.

Fang Chang looked ahead, the moonlight was sprinkled on the river, and the ripples caused by the turtle entering the water reflected the moonlight everywhere randomly, and the moon shadow also became broken in the ripples, like broken porcelain scattered all over the ground.

He shook his head, turned back and walked back.

…………

...

The sun is shining brightly in the morning.

Fang Chang got up very early, and after a brief practice, he was leaning against the bulkhead to read a book.

At this point, the act of waking up early every day to absorb the real fire of the sun after experiencing the breakthrough after seeing one's nature is of little use.

However, Fang Chang still maintains the habit of morning classes, and he will probably have to wait until he has made great progress, and he will cancel this habit when he no longer needs to practice by himself.

The boatman father and son also got up quite early, they have already made breakfast, and they are calling Fang Chang to eat:

"Morning, the guests are coming to eat~"

"Okay, I'll be right here." Fang Chang put down the book in his hand, stuffed it back into the package, and then walked to the dining table.

Breakfast is mainly porridge, and the boatman even boiled an egg for Fang Chang, which is also a special treatment for the guests.

Zhou Changduo is very energetic. It seems that the drunkenness yesterday evening did not cause any negative effects on him, but made him sleep more steadily. said:

"After breakfast, I'll set off on a boat. About this afternoon, we'll be able to dock at Xingqing Mansion."

Thank you Zuo Sheng and Qingquan_Daoke for your reward.
