When Jiang Chen, Huang Tiannu and Long Xiaoque stood side by side, a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes, knowing that this guy was something special.
However, Jiang Chen's attitude was too relaxed, and the two of them knew exactly how much pressure they were feeling at this time.
That's why they were surprised at how terrifying this guy was. Even though the two of them still had some strength left, they had already used a large part of their strength.
However, Jiang Chen knew at a glance that he was very relaxed, and I am afraid that his true strength has not been exposed too much.
For a moment, Jiang Chen stimulated the two of them, and his speed increased in an instant, as if he suddenly came to life.
The demonic energy in Long Xiaoque's body surged and transformed into its true form. A giant bird with colorful feathers appeared on the white jade stone steps.
Daxia dragon bird!
His eyes are as dark as a dragon's pupils, he has a huge horn on his head, and he has the head of a dragon and the body of a bird, just like a mythical beast worshiped by the ancient ancestors of the earth.
Roar!
With a flutter of its wings, the dragon bird turned into a colorful divine light and rushed towards the white jade stone steps.
Not to be outdone, Huang Tiannu transformed into a red phoenix, with flames all over her body, in no particular order with Long Xiaoque.
The white jade stone steps are now divided into four levels. The first level is naturally Feng Wuhen and Alexander at the front.
On the second floor are Long Xiaoque, Huang Tiannu, who are secretly competing with each other, and Jiang Chen, who is taking his time behind them.
On the third floor are Zhan Yifan, Kunlun Pisces, and Zhang Longxiang and others who came from behind.
As for the fourth level, there are other monks who persevere.
After crossing the tenth level, the arrival time and intensity of the mysterious ripples became much stronger, and Jiang Chen had to slow down, advancing slowly as if facing a strong wind.
Gradually, the three of them approached where Feng Wuhen and Alexander were. At this time, the two of them had stopped, closing their eyes and resting, breathing heavily.
Jiang Chen slowly came to the two of them, and the next moment, a divine light shot out from the white jade stone steps and rushed towards Jiang Chen's eyebrows.
Jiang Chen was shocked, thinking that the two brothers were taking a rest, and that they were being plotted by the white jade stone steps.
Jiang Chen opened his eyebrows, and a lake projected out, trying to imprison the divine light, and then looked at Long Xiaoque and Huang Tiannu who also arrived behind him.
At this time, the two of them were also shot by the divine light, like two fishes that were caught out of the ocean, losing their living environment and struggling desperately.
Then, a flower bloomed in front of my eyes...
"Xiao Chen, go buy some groceries with grandma, but your old man, Uncle Wang, and Lao Litou, come to my place to eat for a living again!"
His consciousness was hazy for a while, and a familiar voice sounded in Jiang Chen's ears. When he came back to his senses, Grandma Zhang's kind face appeared in front of Jiang Chende.
Grandma Zhang, an elderly person in the orphanage who treated Jiang Chen better, because she used to be a chef, many people did not eat the meals prepared by the orphanage, but instead came to eat from her.
Of course, most of them are old men.
Because Jiang Chen was young and could talk, he was taken good care of by the elderly in the orphanage.
This orphanage is a combination of an orphanage and a nursing home. It has both elderly and children, and it is very lively.
Orphanage…
Jiang Chen whispered, it was very familiar, it was the place where he was, and he kept coming back after graduation.
Familiar faces, familiar layout, but Jiang Chen doesn’t know why, he always feels like he has forgotten something.
"Why are you standing there? What little girl are you thinking of?"
Grandma Zhang saw Jiang Chen in a daze and asked with a smile.
"Hahahaha, Grandma Zhang, how can there be..."
"Xiao Chen, are you sorry? Your uncle and I had a few secret books on picking up girls when I was young. I'll give them to you later!"
Outside the door, an old man with gray hair but bright eyes walked in from the outside, blinked at Jiang Chen disrespectfully and said.
"Uncle Wang, you'd better keep your youth memories to yourself!"
Jiang Chen looked at Uncle Wang and smiled awkwardly and said, this old man is dishonest and he is very old. He still talks fondly to Grandma Zhang and wants to have a vigorous dusk love.
"Don't you understand this? There is Yan Ruyu in the book, and there is a golden house in the book..."
Yan Ruyu?
For some reason, when Jiang Chen heard this name, a hazy and graceful figure suddenly appeared in Jiang Chen's mind. Although he couldn't see the face clearly, he could imagine what a perfect woman this was.
who is she?
Jiang Chen's heart tightened, and he wanted to remember who this person was, but his thoughts were interrupted by the noise in his ears.
"Bah, you old pervert, don't teach this child bad things!"
Love rivals Uncle Li and Uncle Wang started to pinch each other at the door, while Jiang Chen walked towards the outside of the orphanage under the leadership of Grandma Zhang with a smile on her face.
"Jiang Chen, get out!"
"Grandma Zhang, I also want to go to your house for dinner!"
"Brother Jiang Chen, remember to buy me candy!"
…………
In his ears, there were familiar faces and greetings, and the peaceful atmosphere made Jiang Chen forget what happened to Yan Ruyu just now.
When they arrived at the vegetable market, Grandma Zhang took her familiar friends to negotiate prices at various stalls. They were all fighting for a dollar, and they were all red-faced.
This scene made Jiang Chen feel funny and warm at the same time.
Suddenly, his eyes were caught by a strong man with a sinewy face selling pork.
To be precise, he was attracted by a Bagua mirror hanging on the stall selling pork.
This Bagua Mirror is a double-sided mirror with two concave and convex mirrors. One side depicts a majestic dragon's claw, and its sharp horns resemble sharp swords rising into the sky. The whole monster's body exudes a sense of breaking the heavens.
On the other side, there is a flamingo with blazing flames all over its body, like the legendary phoenix, with eyes as bright as stars.
At this moment, the two giant beasts seemed to come to life and rushed towards Jiang Chen with roars, as if calling him to tell him something.
"Xiao Chen, what's wrong? I want to eat pork. OK, grandma will make dumplings for you today!"
Grandma Zhang's face appeared in front of Jiang Chende, and she waved her hand to take him out of the illusion.
Then I went back to negotiate the price with the pork seller.
After a while, Grandma Zhang came back with a load of sliced meat fillings.
"Let's go back and make dumplings. Grandma likes you young people to be around. It makes me feel like I still have a family!"
Grandma Zhang's wrinkled face is full of a kind smile, which seems to make people forget their worries and hazy memories.
Jiang Chen nodded and was about to go back to the orphanage with Grandma Zhang, but he took a look at the Bagua mirror hanging on the pork stall.
Think about it.
"Grandma, wait for me!"
Turn around and run towards the pork stall.
"Boss, are you selling this mirror?"
"I won't sell it if I don't want to sell it. This is my good treasure to ward off evil spirits. I won't sell it!"
The boss waved his hand impatiently and said.
"No, I really like this thing. If you give me a price, sell it to me!"
With a smile on his face, Jiang Chen began to get close to his boss.
"Look, brother, I will often come to buy your pork in the future. If you sell the mirror to me, you can exchange it for a better one. I will give you a fortune tree with eight sides facing the wind later!"
"Lucky tree?"
“The wind blows from all directions, and the wealth comes rolling in!”
"Okay, little brother, I think you are a real person. This thing is passed down from my ancestors. I usually don't plan to sell it, but since you really like it... Hey, little brother, don't leave!"
When Jiang Chen heard the boss start to say that the things were passed down from his ancestors, he turned around and left.
Something passed down from ancestors, even if it is a piece of broken stone, it can be said that this is the spiritual stone that gave birth to Sun Wukong.
"Brother, I am buying sincerely. Since you are not selling sincerely, forget it!"
Jiang Chen turned around and said to the pork stall owner.
"No, brother, listen to what I have to say. This is it. I won't talk nonsense. Twenty thousand, twenty thousand I'll sell it to you!"
Seeing that Jiang Chen was not easy to fool, the owner of the pork stall said as if he was reluctant to give up.
"two thousand!"
"good!"
The owner of the pork stall struck his butcher knife on the table and said decisively.
It’s so high!
Seeing the pork stall owner so happy, Jiang Chen felt a pain in his heart, but he liked this Bagua Mirror from the bottom of his heart, as if he was born with some kind of bond with him.
So, after paying the boss two thousand yuan, Jiang Chen took the Bagua Mirror and left the pork stall with satisfaction.
"Hey, I didn't expect to meet a fool today. My silly boy picked up this broken mirror from the river. I didn't expect it to be sold for two thousand yuan!"
Later, the pork stall owner said cheerfully.
"Oh, Xiaochen, you're a prodigal. You bought a broken mirror for two thousand yuan. Why are you so prodigal? I'm so angry. Come on, come on, I'll take you back!"
Grandma Zhang said to Jiang Chen in a tone that said she hated the iron and tried to teach her grandson a lesson, and even pulled him to go find the deceitful pork stall owner.
Jiang Chen managed to calm down the angry old lady with some hard words.
After leaving the vegetable market, a huge potted plant suddenly fell from above his head. Jiang Chen's temples were beating and he felt wary.
He raised his head and happened to see this scene. Just as he was about to evacuate, he suddenly thought of Grandma Zhang next to him. Without saying a word, he punched out.
With a bang, the potted plant shattered.
"Grandma Zhang, are you okay?"
Jiang Chen quickly helped the startled Grandma Zhang to the side to rest, and asked with concern.
This scene attracted the attention of many people. For some reason, everyone just glanced at it and left in a hurry, as if they didn't care at all about such an incredible thing as an ordinary person smashing a potted plant with one punch.
Until the Bagua mirror behind Jiang Chen flashed a purple light.
"Oh, it's unbelievable. This young man must have practiced martial arts. He actually broke this potted plant with one punch!"
"Amazing, amazing, just like me back then!"
"This shabby property makes them uneasy if they install security windows. No, something happened today. Fortunately, no one was killed!"
The sound of discussion came to his ears, and Jiang Chen remembered what he had just done.
I looked back at the broken potted plant and was extremely surprised. Did I do this?
When did I become so powerful!
Grandma Zhang was fine, she was just shocked. On the way back to the orphanage, Jiang Chen kept frowning.
From the beginning, he felt that he had forgotten something, something very important.
In his heart, there seemed to be a voice telling him, wake up, wake up!
At night, Jiang Chen held the Bagua mirror and studied it, trying to see if what he had seen during the day was an illusion or something else.
Studying, studying, he fell asleep.
He had a dream, and in the dream, he saw that hazy, perfect woman. Just as Uncle Wang said, she had a beautiful face in the book.
He saw a huge Bagua mirror suspended above his head, with monks controlling rainbow light traveling back and forth.
He saw someone holding the sun and moon in their hands to pick up the stars, and the golden avenue ran through the sea of stars.
The next day, Jiang Chen woke up and recalled the bizarre dream yesterday. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was crazy and still thinking about cultivating immortality!
In the small days, things calmed down day by day. Jiang Chen graduated from university and found a job in the city. He worked on the line at two o'clock every day. He listened to the boss's nagging at work and stayed in his own little nest after work to enjoy the rare happy time.
Half a year later, I had a relationship, but there was always a barrier in my heart. After the woman said that he was not a man, he resumed his glorious single life.
During this period, Jiang Chen also experienced some bizarre incidents, such as a car suddenly rushing towards him on the road, but at the critical moment, he dodged.
For example, in his dreams, he sometimes thinks about cultivating immortality and becoming a Taoist priest.
For example, when he passed by an amusement park, he always felt that the word "park" was a bit eye-catching, as if it had some kind of fateful connection with him.
Finally, three years later, Jiang Chen resigned. He began to travel around mountains and rivers, visiting Longhu Mountain, going south to Maoshan, west to Wudang, carrying the Wa Palace on his back, and looking at the Quanzhen Sect in the distance.
This journey lasted for two years. When he returned to the orphanage, Grandma Zhang and the others were very happy and personally made him his favorite pork dumplings.
"Xiao Chen, it's time to find a wife. Would you like grandma to find a few for you?"
"Grandma Zhang, please stop looking for me. You should first make things clear between Uncle Wang and Uncle Li!"
Jiang Chen ate dumplings and said with a smile.
"You brat, how dare you make fun of your grandma!"
Grandma Zhang gently tapped Jiang Chen on the head, and then everyone ate dumplings amidst laughter and laughter.
After eating, no one moved. Grandma Zhang did not clear the table as usual, and Uncle Wang and Uncle Li did not yell to go out and kill five hundred rounds as usual.
Everyone just looked at Jiang Chen quietly, with kind smiles on their faces.
Jiang Chen walked over, hugged Grandma Zhang, and helped her put away the white hair on her shoulders. With a flick of his fingers, the three old people's white hair began to turn black, and their loose skin became tight.
In the blink of an eye, the three old men regained their youthful appearance.
"Grandma Zhang, Uncle Wang, Uncle Li, thank you for your company over the past few years. I like it here very much, but after all, I no longer belong here.
An ordinary life makes people yearn for it, but I found that I have fallen in love with the monk's life where I fight against the sky and the earth, and change my fate against the sky.
Although I know you are all fake, I still thank you!"
The three old men smiled and nodded to Jiang Chen, and then the entire space began to collapse, and the old people also turned into little stars and disappeared.
The orphanage disappeared, and the white jade stone steps appeared again.
Jiang Chen smiled softly, this illusion was very real, but the fake was fake after all. He no longer belonged to that world. Zhetian Universe had his ties and obsessions.
