After going out, Jiang Xiaoyu's mind was filled with worries. Now, he was not in the mood to go to the martial arts stage again.
Jiang Xiaoyu accidentally came to Baihualing and the edge of the deep pool under the waterfall. This time he did not take out the fishing rod, but found a slightly flatter stone and lay down on it.
Now he is in a state of confusion.
According to Yun Manlou, it won't be long before everyone in the Beast Control Sect will gradually reach the state of the Mahayana stage. By that time, there will be nowhere in the world for other sects to live in peace.
The world has nothing to do with Jiang Xiaoyu, but for some reason, he is always very uneasy in his heart.
Jiang Xiaoyu took out the Shen Nong's Herbal Book. After gaining experience, he already understood that if he aimed the nine dots on it between his eyebrows, he would go to that magical secret realm.
"Let's go and play, don't run too far." Jiang Xiaoyu gave a few instructions to Walnut, then covered the Shen Nong's Herbal Book on his forehead.
The familiar feeling came again, and when Jiang Xiaoyu opened his eyes, the endless wilderness appeared in front of him again.
This place was so peaceful and peaceful that Jiang Xiaoyu actually wanted to stay here forever.
But he also understood that this was impossible.
Every time he enters Shennong's Secret Realm, he will automatically go back after a certain period of time.
This place may only be a temporary spiritual refuge.
This time, Jiang Xiaoyu did not see the giant.
He looked around, but still couldn't find it. After seeing it twice, Jiang Xiaoyu felt a strange sense of intimacy in his heart. He suddenly didn't see it, and felt a little depressed in his heart.
There are no clouds in the sky.
On the ground, it’s endless as far as the eye can see.
Jiang Xiaoyu took a deep breath, made trumpet shapes with his hands, and shouted loudly: "Giant! Giant! Where are you?"
But after a while, there was no reply, and Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly felt even more lost.
Everything in the real world gave him the idea of escape, where he was like a boat on the water, being knocked around by the turbulent current.
He wanted to be calm and stable, but life always gave him all kinds of strange encounters at different times. At this moment, he was a little tired.
Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly fell down on the thick green grass. He looked up at the sky and thought that the world in the real world would be filled with bloodshed in the near future, but he could not escape or escape.
Sometimes, he really feels that he is out of tune with that world.
Men, women, masters and mortals are all human beings. All Jiang Xiaoyu wants is a peaceful life.
"Little clay figurine, you look a little unhappy today." A familiar voice came. Jiang Xiaoyu turned his head and looked. It was the old man named "Shen".
At this time, he still wore a straw hat on his head, and although his face was old, he always gave people a feeling of vitality.
Jiang Xiaoyu immediately sat up, raised his head and said, "Is that you?"
"Isn't it me?"
"But...but I clearly didn't see you just now!"
The old man smiled, sat next to Jiang Xiaoyu, and said, "I'm tired from working, so I'm sleeping next to you. If you hadn't yelled, I could have squinted a little longer."
"Ah?" Jiang Xiaoyu scratched his head and said sheepishly: "Then...that's really embarrassing."
"It doesn't matter! I've been asleep for a while anyway."
"oh."
Standing next to a stranger, Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly didn't know what to say.
However, the old man seemed to be a man. He said softly: "Little clay figurine, you didn't say anything just now, why do you look a little unhappy today?"
"I..." Jiang Xiaoyu couldn't help but lower his head.
He thought carefully for a while and then said: "Old man, you must always live in this world!"
"Well! That's natural!" The old man nodded.
"That's great." Jiang Xiaoyu gently stroked the grass that hadn't fallen down and fiddled with it in a subtle way.
"Okay? Where to start?"
"Look, there are only you and the giant I saw last time in this world. You work at sunrise and rest at sunset. There are no disputes or troubles. You can do whatever you want. Isn't that great?"
"Hahahaha!" The old man stroked his beard and explained with a smile: "What you see is not everything in this world. In this world, my small place is not even a drop in the bucket. You don't even see it.
Look at it all, how can you say this?"
"At least... at least this place belongs to you. You can do whatever you want. How free you are!"
The old man tilted his neck, glanced at Jiang Xiaoyu's face, and said slowly: "Freedom? You are indeed a little clay figurine. Freedom is the wish of every little clay figurine since birth. Thousands of people have been born in this world.
There are thousands of little clay figurines like you, but now, their shadows are hard to find anymore."
Jiang Xiaoyu turned around and asked doubtfully: "What do you mean, I don't understand?"
"No matter where you are, someone will mercilessly deprive you of your freedom. Just like me, my freedom is only freedom in your eyes, but you don't know how much I have paid for the short-term peace of this small world."
The more Jiang Xiaoyu listened, the more confused he became. He looked at the old man in confusion and pursed his lips.
"Still don't understand? Little clay figures, you have been extremely naive from the moment you were born. You think this world is as beautiful as you thought, but how is this possible? Therefore, your destruction and demise,
That is also inevitable.”
"If you want freedom, fight for it!"
Looking at the old man's expression, it seemed that he had returned to a long time ago. The corners of his mouth moved slightly and he murmured: "At that time, many people wanted to turn my small world into a mountain of swords and a sea of fire."
