"Wow~"

On the snow-covered campus, groups of figures walked happily through the stairwell. In the washroom on the stairs from the first to the second floor, a tall figure stood with his hands on the side of the sink, his head stretched out under the faucet, letting the water flow freely.

The warm water below washed the long hair that covered the ears over and over again, and the water droplets splashed on the neck and sweater.

A full minute passed, and the figure still remained silent and motionless. It wasn't until there was a sudden tap on the right shoulder and a loud laugh that the figure waved back.

"Then I'll leave first."

There were footsteps leaving again amid the laughter, but the figure lying beside the pool remained motionless as before. After several minutes, the water poured into his body along his neck, and he retracted his head from under the pool.

He stretched out his hand to push up the long wet hair hanging down to his nose, revealing a pair of red eyes.

Tears mixed with tap water flowed quietly. Guo Zhengyang took a deep breath, then slowly lowered his head and leaned on the edge of the pool, closed his eyes and whispered, "Thank you."

This thank you was a soft voice that only he could hear, because only he knew that the person he was thanking might not exist at all.

He never thought that when his life came to an end, everything could start over again.

Even with his city, it took him a long time to be convinced that not only was he not dead, but he had also strangely returned to fifty years ago.

Fifty years ago, youth was rippling.

He is not a humble and anxious casual cultivator in the spiritual realm, but a dignified young man of the Guo family.

Fifty years ago, his majestic and solemn father was still alive, and his mother, who loved him and doted on him, was just as well.

While his thoughts were wandering, a cell phone ringtone suddenly rang from Guo Zhengyang. When he wiped his hands on his sweater and took out the phone from his pocket, a strange emotion flashed in his eyes. This phone is still a very old smart phone.

machine.

Of course, in Guo Zhengyang's eyes, it can be called ancient. In fact, this mobile phone is the most popular right now, and the most popular mobile phone in the world. It was only launched in China at the end of last year, and it can be used on campus at this time.

With this mobile phone, you are definitely at the forefront of the trend, not to mention that this is just a high school in a small, backward county in the interior of the motherland.

This mobile phone was the eighteenth birthday gift given to him by Guo Zhengyang’s mother before the Spring Festival.

In his last life, even when he left the secular world and entered the spiritual realm to practice and embark on the vast road of pursuing the way of heaven, this phone was still carefully treasured by him.

Because this is the last gift his mother gave him.

In my memory, my father, who was the secretary of the Yanhe County Party Committee, would be promoted to the deputy mayor of Mingchuan City in a few months. That time also happened to be the time when Guo Zhengyang failed the college entrance examination. His father's promotion brought a lot of joy to the family, but

Unfortunately, when my father and mother rushed to the city, they encountered a heavy rain. During the heavy rain, a truck crossing the bridge was driving at a high speed because the driver was tired. When the tires suddenly slipped, the driver could not even brake in time, and hit his parents.

The car he was in crashed through the guardrail and crashed into the river...

From that day on, Guo Zhengyang was adopted by his grandfather, but he began to give up on himself and live a decadent life. Finally, his angry grandfather kicked him out of the house.

However, he was never short of living expenses. Every month, someone would put thousands of dollars into his card. The money was not enough for him to squander, but it was enough for him to have food and clothing. He lived in misery for a few years until his grandfather passed away due to illness.

Then, and a few years later, the uncle who was the executive deputy governor of a southern province was also suppressed by his political opponents and imprisoned, and the Guo family completely collapsed.

But after the collapse of the Guo family, Guo Zhengyang ushered in his own opportunity. He unexpectedly met a monk who had escaped from the spiritual realm and was seriously injured and dying. He received a inheritance for nothing, including exercises and spiritual weapons. He even got it from the monk's mouth.

Learn about the magnificent world of immortals and gods.

It's a pity that the monk died too quickly. Although he left a lot of things behind, Guo Zhengyang had no idea where to start. In order to understand the ancient words in the secret books, he searched through the information for several months, and then he finally got a book on how to get started with cultivation.

It took him five years of groping for the secrets of the Dharma to finally understand it thoroughly and know how to practice it. During these five years, he gave up countless times and tried countless times. In the end, he almost lost confidence completely and entered the practice in a daze.

Cultivation after getting started is not easy either.

It took him a full four years to go from the beginning of cultivation to the peak of the early stage of gathering souls.

A monk condenses the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into his body to change his destiny against the heavens. The first step he takes is to gather spirits. The spirit gathering period is divided into four stages: the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage and Dzogchen.

Continuously gathering souls into the body, constantly washing the mortal body contaminated with countless mundane worldly things. Washing until it is transparent and pure is considered perfect. After reaching the state of gathering souls and making a breakthrough, it is already transcendent and can be done at will.

The terrestrial gods who fly in the sky and escape from the earth, move the clouds and spread rain, are called real people.

Although Guo Zhengyang had an opportunity in the previous life, the monk who died was just a rookie in the middle stage of gathering souls. What he left behind was not valuable, and because there was no one to teach him, he could only explore on his own. It took five years to get started and four years to practice.

When he reached the peak of the early stage of Soul Gathering, a bottleneck trapped him for a year, and it took him another seven or eight years to reach the peak of the middle stage of Soul Gathering.

Seven or eight years later, he finally learned by chance where the spiritual realm was.

After entering the spiritual realm, although the spiritual energy there is rich and the cultivation efficiency is more than ten times stronger than that of the outside world, he is a lonely wild ghost and is only at the peak of the middle stage of gathering spirits. He does not have much experience in fighting powerful enemies. At the beginning, those

Nian basically spent the whole day hiding, trying his best to find a place to stay. When he finally adapted to that cruel world, he also made continuous breakthroughs in the rich aura environment, all the way to the Great Perfection state of Gathering Spirits.

I barely had the capital to find a cave to stay.

The Great Perfection of Gathering Spirits can establish itself in the spiritual realm, but only reluctantly. Especially for casual cultivators, this kind of reluctance is still extremely dangerous.

Guo Zhengyang was trapped in the Dzogchen realm for several more years, and he still often encountered various crises and dangers. It was not until a few years later that he finally had his opportunity and broke through to become a real person.

At that moment, Guo Zhengyang's confidence was unprecedentedly strong. With his background and opportunities, being able to reach that point was really enough to survive in the spiritual realm relatively easily.

After years of fighting and fighting, he finally carved out a bloody path and became a minor master among the casual cultivators.

Guo Zhengyang was indeed high-spirited. Even though he was nearly seventy years old at the time, his lifespan would be doubled once he became a real person. A real person in his sixties or seventies would still be considered young and strong.

But Guo Zhengyang, who was in high spirits, suddenly encountered misfortune. Before he could show off his fists in the spiritual realm, he encountered two strong men fighting near his cave, and he died tragically in a daze.

Thinking back on that life carefully, even though he had already tempered his nerves to be extremely tough in various dangers and tribulations, he still felt so sad that he wanted to cry.

Before he died, his heart was filled with unwillingness and anger.

Angry at this God, he worked hard all his life and finally blazed a bloody path in the spiritual realm. He had just seen his first day and suddenly suffered a catastrophe. His anger and unwillingness were like a raging wave in the sky.

But what's even more helpless is that he didn't even have the chance to be angry and unwilling, because at that moment, he was already wiped out.

But who would have thought.

Not long ago, he was still furious about the unfairness of his fate. Not long ago, he went back to fifty years ago?

Is this the compensation given to him by fate?

Or was there someone out there who saw that his life was too miserable and desolate, so he gave him alms and gave him a chance to turn around?

But no matter what, he fully understood that not only was he not dead, but he had also returned to fifty years ago, when his parents suffered a tragic accident and a few months before the Guo family underwent a huge change. Guo Zhengyang was so excited that he wanted to cry.

The great change in my life will begin in the summer vacation a few months later, after the college entrance examination results are released.

If there hadn't been that car accident, my father would not have passed away in a hurry in his most glorious years, nor would he have given up on himself. Grandpa would not have been grieving for a long time because he lost his son in his later years and took the first step for his beloved son, which led to

My body was falling apart all the way. If my grandfather were still alive, my uncle's political enemies... wouldn't have dared to do such outrageous things.

In the final analysis, his fate suddenly changed drastically in his last life, which was caused by a car accident a few months later.

Silently looking at the mobile phone in his hand, when the ringtone rang over and over again, and when several figures occasionally passing by outside the washing room stopped to watch, Guo Zhengyang took a deep breath and put the mobile phone to his ear.

"Xiao Zheng."

A gentle and concerned voice sounded from the other side of the phone. It was a simple word. Guo Zhengyang turned his back to the outside of the washing room and burst into tears.

"Xiao Zheng?"

Perhaps because there was no reply for a long time, the person on the other end of the phone said, there was a hint of doubt in his voice, "Are you still angry with your dad? Hey, there is no such thing as an overnight feud between father and son. Good boy, don't be angry. Come down quickly, Mom.

I brought you delicious food."

The tears in Guo Zhengyang's eyes were still falling violently, but a trace of doubt flashed in his mind. Was he angry with his father?

The memory that had been almost forgotten in the depths of his mind was checked several times before Guo Zhengyang finally found the source.

It's still just after the Spring Festival, and it's just a few days since the start of the third year of high school.

In the final exam before the Spring Festival, Guo Zhengyang's fifth grade class of high school had a total of 91 people. Guo Zhengyang was honored to be ranked tenth from the bottom of the class. If he was placed in the sixth grade liberal arts class with a total of six classes, his ranking would not need to be ranked at all.

Found it.

He had been scolded all the way through this Spring Festival, but he was in the rebellious stage at that time. The more fierce his father scolded him, the more serious his rebellious mood became. A few days before school started, he had a fierce argument with his father.

, he ran out in the middle of the night and stayed up all night, which made his mother brave the heavy snow to look for him for a long time. The next day, he had a severe cold and was hospitalized.

When he received the news and went to the hospital to see his mother, his father, who was standing outside the ward, slapped him hard several times in front of several doctors and nurses.

It seems that he hasn't answered the phone at home for many days, and even once had the idea of ​​running away from home and giving up his studies. If it weren't for the girl on this campus who he was so reluctant to let go of, and even obsessed with, he might really be alone.

Ran away from home.

Looking through memories that were almost forgotten, Guo Zhengyang's tears became more and more intense. After putting down the phone and taking a deep breath to calm down, he grabbed the phone again and said, "I'm washing my hair, wait until I get off."

"

"Okay, you wash slowly, remember to blow dry after washing..."

The voice on the other side of the phone became gentler, but Guo Zhengyang didn't finish listening. He put down the phone and put it in his pocket after listening to half of it.

After his parents passed away in his last life, he gave up on himself for many years. No matter whether his grandfather or uncle persuaded or scolded him, he was unable to cheer up. The main reason was that his parents left with disappointment.

Disappointment in him.

When the results of the college entrance examination came out, Guo Zhengyang was one or two hundred points away from the junior college level. He knew that his score was too poor, so he took the report card and didn't go home at all. It wasn't until his parents wanted to move to the city that he had no choice but to go back. In front of his house

His parents who were already on the bus outside asked him to get on the bus with them, but Guo Zhengyang simply refused, saying that he would play at a classmate's house for a few days and then go to the city a few days later.

He didn't even go home with his report card, but kept living outside. It wasn't until he heard that his father had been promoted to deputy mayor and that they were moving, that he had to go back and get some things that he valued more back then.

When they returned, their parents had already bowed and prepared to get in the car. His mother cordially asked Guo Zhengyang to get in the car and go together, but he simply refused, saying that he would stay at a classmate's house for a few days and then go to the city a few days later.

His father originally refused and gave him a cold look, but his mother persuaded him and said it would be good to let him relax or something. Then she came over and handed him a sum of money before asking his father to get in the car.
To be continued...
