Dawn breaks in the east, and the morning light is faint.
Cao Xiu shrank his neck to avoid the light shining on his face through the window lattice, and then slowly opened his eyes.
After he woke up, he felt cold and weak all over. His originally strong body was now shaking, and he would tremble from time to time.
As weak as a chicken in the cold winter months!
But he survived in the end.
Thinking back on what happened last night, I couldn't help but feel happy secretly.
Fortunately, the treasure in the longevity lock saved his life at the critical moment. Otherwise, if he had been entangled by the female ghost again, his body would have been completely cold before dawn!
As for his physical weakness, it was because he had absorbed too much essence from the female ghost.
Even though he had practiced Chunyang Boy Kung Fu since he was a child, and his body was much stronger than ordinary people, he had not reached an otherworldly realm after all. Naturally, he could not withstand the devouring of ghosts. It was a great blessing to be able to escape by chance.
"It turns out there really are ghosts in this world!"
Recalling the feeling that the yang energy in his body was on the verge of drying up and about to die due to the female ghost's sucking, he felt frightened and frightened.
Ever since he had an argument with someone a few months ago and accidentally injured his head, which caused him to break the mystery of the womb and awaken the memories of his past life, he gradually accepted the fact that he was reborn.
Originally, he thought this was just a world similar to ancient times, but with the addition of martial arts practice, but when the female ghost actually appeared in front of him, he knew he was wrong.
It seemed that although many of the absurd stories circulating in the market were exaggerated and false, many of them should have actually happened, but he had never seen them with his own eyes before, so he didn't believe them.
It wasn't until I experienced it myself that I realized how dangerous it was.
But it's not his fault. After all, the circle he can reach is not wide at his age. Even the Chunyang Boy Kung Fu passed down from his family is also a foundation-building method for martial arts. Although it is said that as long as you practice to the perfect state, you can reverse the innate cultivation and become Chunyang.
body and embark on the road to immortality.
But this is just a legend after all. So far, I have not heard of any member of the Cao family who has practiced Chunyang Boy Kung Fu to great perfection. It is just that due to the ancestral training, the descendants of the Cao family have laid the foundation on this technique.
In fact, after trying to practice cultivation, most tribesmen found that their cultivation progress was slow and they would basically switch to other methods early.
Otherwise, if you continue to practice hard with all your heart, what will happen even if you reach the perfect state when you are seven or eighty years old?
No heirs, no descendants, and a lonely life?
If they all do this, I'm afraid that the old Cao family will have no descendants for a long time.
Therefore, even though the old man of the Cao family, Cao Xiu's great-grandfather Cao Meng, who had acquired this Kung Fu by chance, was a highly respected head of the family, after practicing the Chunyang Boy Kung Fu for more than thirty years and feeling that there was no hope of a breakthrough, he directly
He made the right choice to leave his family and stay behind.
However, the Cao family was too poor at that time and could not afford a wife. In desperation, Cao Meng had no choice but to take advantage of his neighbors.
But paper cannot contain the fire. If you do this kind of thing too often, people will inevitably find out.
So Cao Meng was driven away by his neighbors, and he never dared to return to his original home.
But this old man is very resourceful. Although his strength is greatly reduced after the boy's martial arts are broken, he was handsome and well-spoken when he was young. His pure yang energy, which he cultivated for many years, also made him quite wealthy.
So without knowing why, he hooked up with a young widow who was rich and powerful. From then on, he took advantage of the situation. After getting a taste of the benefits, he continued to work hard. He married twelve wealthy and powerful widows and gave birth to nine sons and thirteen daughters.
, created a big family business.
After so many years, the Cao family has become quite influential in the local area.
However, if any family is passed down for several generations, it is inevitable that there will be direct descendants.
Cao Xiu's lineage is a branch of the Cao family.
His life was pretty good at first, but his father passed away a few years ago and he was ostracized by his direct descendants due to certain things. His mother left the Cao family with her two sons in anger and lived in Jiangzhou City.
Cao Xiu curled himself up in bed, recalled what happened last night, and couldn't help but feel curious.
Finally, I vaguely seemed to see a scroll flying into my eyebrows.
It was just that he was too weak at the time and fell asleep immediately after finding out that the female ghost had been eliminated.
At this time, he closed his eyes and concentrated his consciousness in his mind.
I originally thought that since I had not advanced to the innate level, nor had I opened my ancestral orifice to cultivate my spiritual consciousness, I would not be able to see anything at all.
As a result, when he concentrated carefully, he suddenly discovered that his ancestral orifice had been opened at some point, and he could mobilize his spiritual consciousness to see inside, and he also saw the picture scroll.
This made him feel happy, and he understood that it must have been the treasure map that opened the ancestral aperture for him when it entered his eyebrows.
At this moment, the picture scroll is floating quietly in the sea of consciousness. At first glance, it seems that there is nothing surprising. It is a two-foot-four-inch long picture scroll with landscapes painted on it.
But just when he was about to focus all his attention on the scroll and explore it carefully, his vision suddenly blurred.
Then, he saw a vast world.
Looking as far as the eye can see, there is no horizon. All you can see are undulating mountains, and there seems to be a plain in the distance.
But if you look carefully, you will notice that there is desolation everywhere. In some places, the mountains have collapsed, the earth has cracked, and the rivers have dried up. It is as if a god once again went to war and wanted to break this world into pieces. The people who saw it were frightened.
Cao Xiu was startled and his mind returned instantly.
He looked intently at the mountain and river scroll, and after comparing it carefully, he knew that the scene he had seen before was exactly what was in the scroll.
"Could it be that this is a treasure similar to the Nuwa Empress' Jiangshan Sheji Map?"
Thinking of this, Cao Xiu's heart couldn't help but beat fast.
Just when he wanted to continue exploring, he suddenly felt tired and a little tired.
Then I remembered that although the treasure map allowed me to open up the ancestral orifice and open up the sea of consciousness, I had not practiced the method of refining the gods, and the power of the soul was weak, so naturally I could not use it for a long time.
Anyway, the treasure map is hidden in the sea of his own consciousness, and no one else can see it. If you want to explore it, you are not in a hurry.
Thinking of this, he gave up the idea of continuing to explore with his spiritual consciousness, and instead thought, since consciousness can enter it, can his body also enter the world in the picture?
But we’ll talk about this later, the top priority is to recover as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if he is like this now, he will not be able to practice normally even if he waits for his mother to come back and worry about it.
"Brother Xiu, Brother Xiu..."
At this moment, there was a sudden banging sound outside and someone knocked on the door.
Cao Xiu wanted to get up, but his body was really weak. He felt very cold when he lifted the quilt, so he ignored it.
Soon, a young man climbed over the wall and came to his house: "Brother Xiu, open the door quickly!"
"well!"
Cao Xiu had no choice but to wrap himself in a quilt and get out of bed, trembling as he opened the door latch, revealing a young man of similar age to him outside.
The young man has an average appearance, slightly darker skin, but has a rather strong build.
This is his friend Chen Shi.
When Chen Shi saw him like this, his eyes widened and he asked, "I heard from Uncle Wang next door that you brought a girl back from Baihua Building last night. How did you end up like this? This is so out of control."
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Cao Xiu glared at him, quickly ran back to the bed and lay down, saying: "You can believe what he said. I met a female ghost last night and was pestered a lot."
"Let me tell you, you are definitely not the lecherous kind of person!"
Chen Shi nodded, then frowned and said: "You are full of yang energy. Ordinary lonely ghosts should not dare to provoke you. Why did you end up like this again? Could it be that you couldn't resist the temptation..."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense!"
Cao Xiu fumbled around on the bedside, took out a broken piece of silver from under the pillow and threw it to him: "I'll go to Renxintang Li Langzhong in a while to prescribe me some medicine to nourish my body and make up for the loss of qi and blood, and get me another medicine."
Come here chicken."
"ah?"
Chen Shi's eyes widened immediately when he heard this.
He glanced at Tu Wan a few times with strange eyes.
Could it be that I was opened by a female ghost last night, and I can't wait to think about that kind of thing?
At that moment, his face was full of admiration: "Brother Xiu is so tough. He just had his yang energy sucked by a female ghost at night, and now he still has such thoughts!"
"What are you thinking about?"
Cao Xiu glared at him: "I asked you to get a chicken and stew it to replenish your body!"
This kid really has no eyesight at all. He has become so weak, how can he still do that kind of thing?
With his current physical condition, he can be called a sage in bed. Even if the oiran from Baihualou was stripped naked and put on his bed, he would not be even a little excited!
