The sun shone on his body, but Mu Yi didn't feel any warmth at all. On the contrary, he only felt cold all over.
Looking up, the sun is not dazzling at all, even gray, but the meaning it represents is supreme!
It had been some days since Mu Yi woke up, but his injuries were recovering very slowly, and he could feel the vague rejection of him by this world. In fact, he knew very well that this place was no longer the world of the underworld. If it really wanted to have a name
, that is the underworld, or the ghost world.
Above the head, the sun is the dharma of the Netherworld Emperor in the underworld. On one day, above the hunting sky, it is a symbol of eternity.
This kind of existence has actually exceeded Mu Yi's imagination. The only thing he can be sure of is that the Netherworld Emperor, the Lord of the underworld, is definitely far more than the so-called heavenly beings. If divided according to realm, it should at least be
The fourth difficulty, or even higher.
It's a pity that Mu Yi's current real state is only a small level of Taoism. He has not even reached the level of heaven and man, let alone is above heaven and man.
If the daytime belongs to the Nether Emperor, then the night belongs to the Holy Mother of Houtu.
That's right, it's Houtu, the dust returns to dust, soil returns to dust, and all honors return to Houtu.
I am afraid that this is the only existence that Mu Yi can feel familiar with. This Houtu Stepmother is said to be the only existence in the underworld that can compete with the Netherworld Emperor.
The Netherworld Emperor's dharma appearance is a day, while the Houtu Holy Mother's dharma appearance is a moon. The two cycle back and forth and never meet each other.
Our Lady of Houtu has many names. Some people call her the Holy Mother, some call her empress, and some call her the patron saint. This patron saint is the patron saint of the human race.
Although Mu Yi entered the underworld, he was very lucky. He appeared directly in the territory of the human race and was rescued. Through what he learned after waking up these days, he also roughly understood the underworld and the human race.
Condition.
In the underworld, the ghost tribe rules the earth. The so-called ghost tribe is actually not what Mu Yi used to think in the underworld. He only thought that people would become ghosts after death. In fact, the ghost tribe is just a general term. There are ghosts for humans and ghosts in the sky.
There are devils, etc.—not enough.
After all, the Nether Emperor is from the ghost clan, so the ghost clan rules everything.
In addition to the ghost clan, there are many races, among which the demon clan is the largest clan after the ghost clan. In the myths and stories of the underworld, there are usually minions like bull heads and horse faces in the underworld. In fact, these belong to the ghost clan, and
Vixens, etc., are all ghosts.
As for the human race, it is only a small race in the underworld. It has to bear the oppression of those big races. If it were not for the Holy Mother of Houtu, I am afraid that the human race would have been wiped out long ago. This also shows how bad the living conditions of the human race in the underworld are.
Mu Yi is naturally not idle these days. As for the reason why the human race has become so weak, it is mostly due to their physical constitution. In short, this underworld is not suitable for the human race to practice, because the human race originally belonged to the yang world, and now the yin and yang are separated. Naturally
There will be various inconveniences.
After learning about the underworld, Mu Yi was even more surprised. If he hadn't come here in person, who would have thought that the underworld would look like this? At least it was completely different from those in the legends.
At this time, Mu Yi couldn't help but think of what the mysterious light man had said to him on the ancient Yellow River Road.
During the great catastrophe in ancient times, some people chose to leave the earth and go to the vast void to find a place to stay. But when he thought of the endless darkness, Mu Yi shuddered. What kind of strong person could travel through that kind of place?
How difficult is it to find a place suitable for human habitation in the endless darkness? It is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
In addition to these few people, there are still some people who have entered the underworld. Perhaps the human race in the underworld today came in at that time. After generations of reproduction, although they finally took root and settled in the underworld, in fact, they are in danger of being destroyed at every turn.
Although these human beings have worked hard to practice in order to survive, they have no choice but to do half the result with twice the result in the underworld, which is far more difficult than in the upper world.
Regardless of whether they are ghosts or monsters, they are all at home in the underworld. They practice quickly and have a lifespan far longer than humans. If the human race had not had geniuses popping up from time to time, even with the blessing of the Holy Mother of the Earth, they would have been wiped out long ago.
.
Mu Yi did not look down on the human race who fled into the underworld. At least they wanted the human race to continue. After all, in the world at that time, no one could be sure that they could stop the catastrophe of the end of the law, and if they failed, the entire human race might be in danger.
Only then did strong men search hard in the endless darkness, and only then did some human beings leave their homes and flee into this underworld.
He took a look at what he was wearing, which was very ordinary linen. As for his clothes, they had been completely destroyed when he entered the underworld. Mu Yi also vaguely guessed that the reason why he could reach the underworld alive must be with that person.
It was related to the evil Buddha, but now, the evil Buddha has long disappeared. No matter how he searched in his body, there was no trace.
"Squeak!"
Suddenly, the courtyard door was pushed open. Mu Yiyi looked over from the wall. A thin figure walked in with some difficulty carrying firewood that was far larger than his body weight, and then piled the firewood behind the corner.
, dragged his exhausted body to Mu Yi and sat down.
"Brother Mu Yi, are your injuries feeling better?" the visitor asked.
The person who asked this question was Mu Yi's savior, Jiang Xiaoyu. His name was a bit girly, but he was actually a boy. He was only thirteen years old and took care of his sick mother alone. As for his livelihood, he could only rely on him to go up the mountain to chop wood.
Firewood, and donations from neighbors.
Logically speaking, such a family would not be able to save Mu Yi at all, but Jiang Xiaoyu ignored the obstruction of others, carried Mu Yi back on his back, and went up the mountain to collect medicine regardless of the danger. Just like this, Mu Yi was able to slowly wake up.
come over.
Others may think Jiang Xiaoyu is stupid, but how can a half-year-old child who can support the family by himself be really stupid? The other person has a maturity that far exceeds his age, or is smart.
After Mu Yi woke up, Jiang Xiaoyu also had a serious talk with him. At that time, Jiang Xiaoyu asked him directly, "I saved you, what benefits can you give me?"
When he heard this, Mu Yi was stunned for a while. It wasn't until he saw that Jiang Xiaoyu didn't seem to be joking that Mu Yi asked him what he wanted. At that time, Mu Yi had just woken up and was not very clear about his surroundings, but he asked himself
With his status as the Vermillion Bird Flag Envoy, no matter how big-hearted Jiang Xiaoyu is, he will definitely be able to satisfy him.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaoyu didn't want gold, silver, or power, but asked him if he could teach him how to practice.
At that time, Mu Yi concluded that this child would not be simple. Later, Jiang Xiaoyu's words made Mu Yi understand that he was no longer in the earthly world.
Because Jiang Xiaoyu said that the village he was in had been invaded by monsters all year round and was about to lose its strength. Only by practicing cultivation could he save the village and protect his mother.
Next, Mu Yi used some tricks and learned everything he wanted to know from Jiang Xiaoyu. However, after knowing the truth, he preferred not to know.
However, Mu Yi did not immediately agree to teach Jiang Xiaoyu how to practice. After all, he didn't know him well. At the same time, he also wanted to make sure whether what the other party said was true. But even though the truth was now confirmed, he did not teach Jiang Xiaoyu how to practice.
And every day, when Jiang Xiaoyu returned from chopping firewood, she would sit in front of him and stare at him without saying a word, just looking at him like this, and would not leave until it was time to cook.
Mu Yi knew what he was thinking, but did not agree.
At the beginning, Tieniu also accepted him as a registered disciple because he saved him, but that was just a registered disciple, and what Mu Yi taught him was only martial arts, not cultivation.
Let’s not talk about the difference between cultivation and martial arts. Mu Yi quietly checked Jiang Xiaoyu’s body. It was very poor. It was impossible to practice. He couldn’t even overcome the first difficulty of cultivation. As for martial arts,
It is also a pity that Jiang Xiaoyu is too thin and lacks vitality to complete even the first step of body tempering. Otherwise, someone in this village would have taught him martial arts long ago.
This is also the reason why Mu Yi has never agreed to him, otherwise what if he teaches him practice? It is just a matter of having one more named disciple, not to mention, if there is no Jiang Xiaoyu this time, whether he can survive is still a question. Professor Jiang
Xiaoyu was nothing compared to the life-saving grace. What's more, Mu Yi didn't have any pedantic views.
If this could be used to resolve the cause and effect between the two parties, Mu Yi would have made a profit.
However, Jiang Xiaoyu's aptitude is not enough to practice cultivation at all, and forcing him to teach him will only harm him.
Mu Yi had clearly told Jiang Xiaoyu about this, but Jiang Xiaoyu was unwilling to give in and always wanted to give it a try, so after returning from chopping firewood every day, he looked at Mu Yi, hoping that he would agree.
At night, there was a coughing sound from the next room. It was Jiang Xiaoyu's mother. If he was added to the mix, Jiang Xiaoyu would have to take care of two sick and injured patients, which would be even more difficult.
"Sir, can I come in?"
Suddenly, Jiang Xiaoyu's voice sounded outside the door.
"Come in." Mu Yi sighed inwardly, then opened his eyes.
"Sir, I heard from the village chief that there is a spiritual plant in the deep mountains, and the fruit it bears can change a person's physique." After Jiang Xiaoyu entered the house, he lowered his head and said.
"You want to find spiritual fruit?" Mu Yi said coldly.
"Yes." Jiang Xiaoyu's head lowered.
"Then why did you come to me? Do you want me to help you pick spiritual fruits?" Mu Yi asked directly.
"No, Xiaoyu just wants to ask adults to help me take care of my mother for a while if I can't come back," Jiang Xiaoyu said.
"I won't stay here for too long." Mu Yi said calmly.
"Xiaoyu knows, as long as you help me take care of my mother before leaving," Jiang Xiaoyu said.
"Are you really determined to go?" Mu Yi asked again. (To be continued)
