Chapter 42 The messy old man in the wind
Ren Yi forgot his previous fear and actually walked towards the big beast.
The old man was behind him, calling him anxiously, "Little brother, it's dangerous! Come back quickly!"
Without pausing, Ren Yi walked up to Ren Tu resolutely, raised it high, and said frankly to the big beast: "It is my partner, and it must go with me. I'm sorry, I can't keep it."
Stay with you!"
"Ho~~~"
I don't know whether he understood it or not, but the big beast looked up to the sky and howled loudly, and a huge teardrop fell down, which made Ren Yi and Ren Tu feel cold to the core.
Different from the fishy smell in its mouth, the tears actually contained a sweet fragrance. Ren Zhi felt that his soul had been thoroughly cleansed, and he was so comfortable that he almost hummed.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
The old man was so excited that he was confused. "It's incredible, this imbecile can actually cry? I must be hallucinating due to presbyopia!"
He rubbed his eyes hard, but Ren Yi still looked wet all over.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... I saw it right, this little brother is a talented person. I envy him, I envy him a lot, I envy him so much!"
It has been recorded in ancient classics that the giant beast is eight feet tall. It has low intelligence, strong defense, and powerful attacks. In ancient times, it was driven by great powers using secret methods to serve as a vanguard attack force and the main force in the battles in the heavens and the world.
In addition to being a human shield and a sharp sword, it has another unknown function. The fragrance of its tears can wash away impurities in the soul, enhance people's talents, and bring them closer to the origin of the great road.
However, there is still a glimmer of hope to kill the big beast and make it cry. No one has been able to do it since ancient times.
The old man said it was impossible not to be greedy, but the tears came unexpectedly, and it was a disposable product. Its essence had been completely absorbed by Renzhi and was no longer useful.
"Oh~~~What a pity! Why can't my little brother practice? What a great opportunity!"
If this were any person in the cultivation world, he would be able to break through a small realm or even a big realm in an instant. The old man kept shaking his head and sighing.
The big beast was immersed in sadness, took a deep look at Ren Tu, turned around and left.
Its back is so lonely, every time I look at it I want to say, "If you don't mind, please follow me!"
However, the big beast is too big, and it will be inconvenient for him to carry it with him. He is just a poor beggar with no ability, but he cannot feed such a huge beast. It is just a day's food for such a big beast.
Can you turn a rich man into a pauper?
He reluctantly hugged Ren Tu and left. The old man stepped forward and gave him a hammer on the shoulder, "Good boy, congratulations!"
"Uh~~ It's time to celebrate, you actually escaped with your life!"
Ren Yi cheered up and smiled happily.
"That's not what the old man meant, but... forget it, you don't understand even if you tell me."
"Let's go, let's get out of this damn place. There are many treasures ahead waiting for us to collect."
The old man finally remembered his original intention and hurriedly set out on the road. This time he found a road farther away from the big beast, not wanting to encounter this big guy again.
The bone spirit treasure in his hand was almost destroyed by being licked, and he couldn't stand it again.
Different from the stone forest scenery, here is an endless wilderness. The grass on the ground seems to be lacking the moisture of rain. It is dry and yellow, and when you step on it, it makes a crisp "rustle" sound.
It seems that a fire can start a prairie fire.
The old man bent down and rummaged in the hay, while Ren Yi squatted aside boredly, "Uncle, what are you looking for?"
"Splendens splendens is a kind of grass that can be eaten as food. It looks very similar to this hay grass root, but it is bright yellow."
"Ah? Uncle, are you hungry? I'm not hungry yet. I've been here for a long time."
"This is a Death Star world. Time runs very slowly. A day inside is only an hour outside. It's normal that you don't feel hungry."
"Then...how long have you been here? Why did you think of looking for something to eat?"
The old man counted with his fingers and seemed a little surprised, "I just calculated it, it's probably more than 3,000 days, almost ten years."
Ren Yi also picked up his fingers and murmured, "There are twelve hours in a day. One hour here is equal to one day outside, which is twelve hours and twelve days. In turn, it is twelve hours here."
The sky is equal to the day outside."
"That's right, your mind is not confused and your calculation is correct." The old man nodded with satisfaction, "Continue to calculate!"
Ren Ren had a headache and exposed his toes, and continued to pull, "Well, if you calculate it like this, the more than three thousand days here are outside...36,000 days, which is...one hundred years."
"My mother, you have stayed here for a hundred years, is it true?"
Ren Yi was shocked. Although the old man in front of him had white hair and beard and looked old, it was really unimaginable for him to believe that he was more than a hundred years old.
How many years can an ordinary person live at most? He couldn't help but think of the elders who died suddenly when he was staying at home. The one who lived the longest was only 87 years old. In this way, he was already called a long life and auspicious person.
, rarely seen.
"Ha, what a fuss! One hundred years old, pediatrician, old man, I am nine hundred years old this year." The old man proudly made a nine-character sign with his hand.
Ren Yi opened his mouth wide in shock and stepped forward to tear his face apart, "Old man, are you still human?"
The old man slapped his hand away to prevent him from succeeding, "Bah, bah, bah! Brat, do you talk to your elders like this? You are not a human being."
"I am definitely a human being. Whether you are a human being or not remains to be verified! Maybe some demons and ghosts have appeared to confuse people."
"Aren't those ghost stories all about scenes like this? A scholar in trouble, coming to the wilderness, encountering a painted-skinned beauty, being sucked dry of his essence and blood, etc."
Ren Yi touched his chin and made random guesses. In short, he just didn't believe there were such long-lived people in this world.
“Pfft~~~” The old man was so amused that he couldn’t laugh or cry, “You brat, I’m a bad old man, how can I confuse you? If you want to confuse me, you have to become a big girl!”
"Uh~~~Maybe you want to imitate that demon and suck the flesh and blood of young people to achieve the purpose of rejuvenating your youth."
Speaking of human demons, Ren Yi couldn't help but shudder.
That is a well-known demon in Lingyin Continent. He behaves very cruelly. Every time his life span is approaching, he will capture a large number of young people, refine their flesh and blood into longevity pills and swallow them, and then achieve immortality.
purpose.
Of course, this is just a legend. No one knows the truth, and no one will try it. After all, it is against the harmony of heaven. Once such a thing is spread, people in the entire spiritual world will be hunted down. No one dares to violate this taboo.
