When Xiang Que chose to stay quietly in Taishan Cave and Dongyue Temple, everything else was simple.
Just let it come as it comes, don't think about anything else, just let everything take its course.
During the day, Xiang Que worked to provide medical care to the villagers in the nearby Shiliba Village. At night, he cooked and cooked by himself, and then went to bed on time.
All his actions now transform himself into a mortal state.
He didn't think about anything related to cultivation at all. The Three Thousand Great Ways, understanding the laws of heaven and earth, refining alchemy and refining weapons, etc. were all forgotten by him.
Carry the mortal body to the end.
Later, after a few years, Xiang Que's reputation became more and more popular. People not only heard of his name not only hundreds of miles away, but also thousands of miles away.
At this time, Xiang Que accidentally discovered that his appearance had changed significantly, that is, he looked more mature and looked a bit middle-aged.
You must know that although Xiang Que regards himself as a mortal, his realm and cultivation are still there. He has not deliberately suppressed these two points. If any cultivator sees him at this time, he will definitely
You can tell his cultivation level at a glance.
Since his cultivation and realm are all there, his appearance and body shape should not change. Let alone a few years, even in hundreds or thousands of years, what he was before will remain the same.
, unless he deliberately uses his magical powers to change himself.
In this case, it can only mean that there is a problem, that is, when his mentality changes, the whole person is also affected.
This is a change in mood.
Strictly speaking, most people cannot achieve this state at all, unless you are completely immersed in a certain state and do not come out for a long time.
Xiang Que was very pleased. This change was quite important to him.
This may mean that one day in the future, he cannot tell when he will have a chance to break through.
I don’t know how many years have passed, but Xiang Que already looks very old.
Time is very scary to mortals, because it means that it involves two factors in life, old age, illness and death, but it does not exist for gods.
As long as the realm is there, Yang Shou basically doesn't need to think too much about it.
But at this moment, Xiang Que suddenly had a strange idea in his mind.
That means one day, will I die of old age?
He was startled by this idea at the time, and then quickly realized, no, with the longevity of a saint, there is no concept of old age and death.
At this moment he understood, it seemed that he was not far away from returning to his original nature?
Later, one day, Xiang Que completely turned into an old man. His skin was wrinkled, his face was covered with wrinkles, even his shoulders were stooped, his skin was gray, and his eyes had a cloudy smell.
It looked as if he was in his final years.
Then, Xiang Que suddenly discovered that there were no more villagers going up the mountain, and none of them could be seen.
You know, over the years, many people who have come to Dongyue Temple to see doctors and ask questions often queue from morning to night. Some people who don't queue up will simply sleep in the mountains and forests, waiting to come back the next day.
Even if there are only a few, we can receive ten or eight people a day, and there will definitely be no situation where there is no one.
Xiang Que was very surprised, so he walked out of Dongyue Emperor Temple and came to the foot of Mount Tai.
He smelled blood, saw several corpses on the ground, and saw fires burning in several nearby villages.
Finally he heard the cry of death.
Xiang Que frowned. He knew why no one went to the top of the mountain. There was a war in the town under Mount Tai Cave. The army from nowhere was fighting. A large number of unarmed villagers were killed.
Xiang Que even recognized people who had been to the mountain before.
It was a middle-aged man, holding a six- or seven-year-old child in his arms, running wildly in fear. Behind him was a soldier chasing him with a long knife.
The child had suffered a serious illness when he was born. His parents carried the child to the mountain, but Xiang Que was still optimistic about it.
Xiang Que saw an old woman again. She once asked her son why he hadn't come home for several years. Xiang Que told her that you don't have to worry about the white-haired man giving the black-haired man.
Xiang Que also saw a young woman who once came to him to pray for her family.
In short, Xiang Que saw many people he would see before, and without exception, these people were facing a disaster and were about to die under the butcher's knife.
He raised his hand with a "swish", and saw that the father holding the child was about to be hacked to death with a knife, and he wanted to save him.
With his level of cultivation, it would be no problem to take action against these mortal soldiers. He could even avoid this man-made disaster with just a breath of air. After all, he was a god.
However, Xiang Que's raised hand suddenly stopped.
"I am not a god, I am also a mortal..."
Xiang Que did not take action, but put his hand down. In the end, he saw that many people were dead.
If someone saw this scene, they might say that Xiang Que was cruel and too cold-blooded, why would he not save Xiang Que even if he saw him dead?
However, from another perspective, what he did was interfering with the fate of those people, which was contrary to the rules of heaven.
Birth, old age, illness and death are very common and represent a person's most basic destiny.
What you are destined to be is what you should be. It is all destined by God.
Xiang Que is now a mortal body, so he should look like a mortal.
This is the law of heaven.
It's not that he refuses to save them, it's the fate that these people deserve and cannot be changed at will.
If Xiang Que, who is in the realm of a saint, appears at this time, he may choose to take action without any doubt.
But alas, he is not.
Xiang Que sighed, shook his head, then turned around and left, with his hands behind his back, and returned to the mountain again.
Everything behind him has nothing to do with him.
It was related because he had solved difficult and complicated diseases for these villagers in the past.
It doesn't matter, because from now on, heaven and man are separated.
When Xiang Que returned to the Dongyue Temple on the mountain, the fighting and the smell of blood at the bottom of the mountain were forgotten by him.
Dusk is coming, and the sun is setting in the west.
There were bursts of footsteps at the foot of the mountain. Xiang Que, who was cooking in the temple, turned around and saw a group of soldiers surrounded by a general arriving in front of the Dongyue Temple.
These people still have blood on their bodies.
This is the group of soldiers who killed people at the foot of the mountain earlier. They came to the Dongyue Temple.
"I heard that there is an old god here. He is very accurate..."
