The monk's voice sounded very small to the villagers, like a conversation, but when it reached the sky, it sounded like thunder, shaking the sky and rolling the wind and clouds.
The old cow stopped in the air and looked down at the tiny human below, wishing he could crush him to death with a hoof.
"It's him." Su Mengyao's voice rang out from the carriage.
"It's him, Niu, let's go down." Zi Chen's voice came from the carriage.
The old cow landed from the sky, and the villagers below were so frightened that they retreated far away.
The monk looked at the old cow and said loudly: "You old cow, you are flying in the sky for no reason. This is forcing your Buddha to take action. Come on, come on, today the Buddha will end the training early and give you this stupid Teach the bull a lesson."
The monk was about to take action, but suddenly he saw some rules flashing on the old cow. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, I can't tell. It's still an old cow with some realm. It can allow an old cow like you to pull a cart." , it seems that the person in the car has a high status."
The careless monk had a dignified and serious look in his eyes.
Suddenly, a voice came from the carriage: "It's all through experience in the world of mortals, understanding the rules and breaking through. People can do whatever they want, but you are here to cheat."
Hearing this voice, the monk's eyes widened, he looked at the chariot in surprise, and murmured: "It's not such a coincidence."
Zi Chen said: "I didn't want it to be such a coincidence, but who let it be the case?"
Zi Chen pulled Su Mengyao out of the carriage and said, "You were cheating back then. I didn't expect that after so many years, you would still be cheating. Why, maybe you want to understand the rules of cheating."
"Bah, I said who is so annoying, it turns out to be you. You said you are looking for something wrong. You find a cow to pull the cart, and you still fly in the sky so coolly. You know this is very embarrassing. "The monk glared.
"My pleasure."
Watching the conversation between the two parties, the fear in the eyes of the villagers in the distance slowly dissipated. Listening to the content of the conversation, they were all extremely shocked when they learned that the two were familiar.
In the hearts of the villagers, the monk was a big liar, but they didn't expect that this liar actually knew a friend who could fly.
"Okay, you haven't seen each other for decades, and this is a rare meeting, so don't argue." Looking at the two people who were chattering endlessly and wanted to talk about what happened hundreds of years ago, Su Mengyao interrupted them.
"Humph." The monk snorted coldly, declaring victory.
The three of them left the small village and walked toward a forest, with Lao Niu following behind.
In the forest, Su Mengyao set up a fire and grilled meat for the two of them, while Zi Chen took out some wine and handed it to the monk.
Although the original monk was unruly and unrestrained, he was very principled and did not eat meat or drink alcohol. However, after entering the Buddhist ruins, what little principles he had left eventually disappeared.
After the meat was cooked and drank, the monk took a big mouthful and marveled at it, asking: "What kind of meat is this? It's so delicious."
Zi Chen smiled and said: "Pork."
The monk said: "What I asked is true."
"What I said is true. Pork is just a foreign species from the Earth Realm. It has rough skin and thick flesh. It was easy to kill it back then."
"You haven't made a breakthrough yet, so you still have time to find the alien beasts to kill." As he spoke, the monk ate meat and wolfed it down.
Zi Chen glanced at the monk and said, "You haven't made a breakthrough yet, but you have no intention of cheating."
The monk loudly said: "I told you, I was practicing. Besides, if I wanted to break through, I would have broken through a few years ago, but that was not the rule I wanted, so there was no breakthrough."
The monk looked at Zi Chen proudly.
Zi Chen said lightly: "Me too."
The monk was startled, then glared at Zi Chen fiercely, and then ate and drank without saying a word.
Zi Chen raised the wine bottle in his hand at the monk and said, "Go ahead and eat. It's just this meal. After you finish it, you can get out."
The monk looked at Zi Chen in confusion and asked, "Why, aren't you ready to practice with me?"
Zi Chen said: "If you really want to go with me, I have to consider giving up the old ox and using you to pull the cart."
"What, you want me to pull the cart?" The monk's voice suddenly rose and became extremely sharp.
"Mengyao and I want to understand the way of nature. There is no shortage of anything around us. If you insist on following us, we can only let the old cow leave and you will become a mount." Zi Chen said with a smile.
"Bah, let me serve as your mount, and you won't even look at your virtue."
The meal was finished amidst the commotion. After finishing the meal, the monk patted his butt and left.
Both of them had been away from home for decades, leaving the world of monks and entering the mortal world, so they had no idea about the changes in the world of monks.
Moreover, the rules and paths the two of them are looking for are fundamentally different. During the training process, there will naturally be no intersection, and there is no need to go together.
Of course, it is still necessary to have a meal after meeting.
The monk left, and the two set out on the road again. They had walked for fifty years, and then for another fifty years.
One hundred years have passed, and more than one hundred and ten years have passed since Zi Chen left the Wuji Sect.
Longhu still hasn't woken up, and Lao Niu is becoming more and more competent as a laborer.
Because it was such a long time ago, he would occasionally chat with Su Mengyao and Zi Chen. Over the past hundred years, he gradually learned about Zi Chen's many deeds, and his admiration grew in his heart.
After a hundred years of experience, the tired hearts of the two of them were gradually washed away, and their moods changed again, becoming extremely peaceful.
Now thinking about the killing many years ago, Zi Chen even felt a sense of self-blame in his heart, feeling that killing was not necessarily the best way to approach the matter.
This is the change of mood.
Two thousand miles away from the mountains, the two of them found a valley. The valley was very large, with beautiful scenery, water, flowers, and some small animals.
"It's nice here, why don't we stay here?" Su Mengyao looked at the valley below, feeling very happy.
After traveling for more than a hundred years, the two of them did not just walk, they would stop and go, and they would stay for a while when they encountered some beautiful places.
"Okay, let's find a place to build a wooden house. We choose to stay there for a long time."
Zi Chen was also very satisfied with this place. The two fell into the valley. Su Mengyao trotted excitedly to the river, entered the water barefoot, and watched the fish playing in the water.
Zi Chen shouted from a distance: "We are dividing the work now. You prepare the food, and I will find the materials to build the wooden house."
Su Mengyao turned around and smiled, stuck out her tongue at Zi Chen, and said mischievously: "I know."
Zi Chen took a heavy ax and went to chop down the tree. Su Mengyao was still playing in the water, and the old cow went to play by herself.
In half a day, the wooden house was built. In addition, Zichen also made some furniture out of boulders and built a fenced courtyard with bamboo. There was a small stone table in the courtyard and two small stone benches beside the table.
Su Mengyao also took advantage of this time to go to the nearby mountains and forests to pick some wild fruits. This was their lunch.
Zi Chen and Su Mengyao lived in the valley for a long time without being disturbed by outsiders, enjoying their own life outside the world like a couple of gods and immortals.
The valley is large, surrounded by mountains. There is water in the valley, flowers and plants beside the water, and fish in the water. Some human footprints can also be found here. There is a small village at the foot of a mountain a few miles away. People in the village hunt for food. born.
This small valley is a resting place for them when they go deep into the mountains and forests, because the mountains and waters here are very sweet and the fish are very plump.
But the valley is very deep and surrounded by mountains. If you want to get in, you have to exert a lot of effort. Therefore, although there are people here, they are all able-bodied villagers. Others can only stand on the top of the peak, looking at the valley and sighing. .
Recently, when the villagers were hunting, they discovered that there was a small courtyard in the valley. This was an uninvited guest. The cautious villagers did not come down, but stood on the top of the mountain to watch.
They looked at a young woman from a distance, wearing white clothes, walking on the water like a fairy. She was barefoot, her skin was as white as snow, and her face was stunning. The villagers were immediately shocked by her.
In addition to the fairy-like woman, they saw a handsome man holding a big ax in his hand and slashing the ax to split the mountain.
"They are gods. One can walk on water, and the other can open mountains with an ax. He must be a god."
"I have long said that this valley is extraordinary. It was once called the Valley of the Immortals. Now it has finally attracted the gods. Let me tell you, I have drank the mountain water there. It is very sweet and can cure all diseases."
"Two gods, one male and one female, must have descended into the mortal world as lovers of the gods."
Soon, news about the immortals spread in the small mountain village, and many people went to the peak to see the immortals.
The villagers watched from a distance, but Zi Chen and Su Mengyao didn't take it seriously. The two would sometimes play chess on the stone table, sometimes go out in a daze, and sometimes play in the water.
After the villagers were sure that there were gods and goddesses here, every time they passed by this place while hunting, they would kowtow in the direction of the valley to seek blessings from the gods.
Strange to say, after that, when villagers went up to the mountains to hunt, they had more harvests and less dangers. In the past, there were often ferocious beasts in the mountains, and sometimes there were ferocious beasts. But since the gods came and they knelt down to worship the gods, ferocious beasts and ferocious beasts followed. The beasts have also disappeared. Instead, there are obviously more small and harmless beasts on the surrounding mountains.
After discovering this problem, the villagers respected the Valley of the Gods even more. During the New Year, they would take some things and put them outside the valley to honor the two gods.
Living in the mountains and forests, Su Mengyao gradually became naughty. She would fetch the things that the villagers brought to show her filial piety.
"Zi Chen, look, these fruits are no longer in the mountains nearby, but they still still have them." Su Mengyao held some crystal-like fruits for Zi Chen to look at. Of course, he was only allowed to look at them and not eat them.
Now Su Mengyao has become a little greedy and loves to eat some wild fruits.
Regarding this phenomenon, Zi Chen is not surprised and has no objections. The only one who has objections is probably the old cow.
When there were immortals in the mountains, there was also an old cow. Many villagers tried to catch the old cow back to cultivate the land. They never expected that the mountains were so quiet and they were getting more and more prey from the mountains. In fact, it was not the two immortals. It was caused by gods, but it was done by Lao Niu who received the will of immortals and gods.
Unfortunately, it was always Zi Chen and Su Mengyao who were enshrined, and he was always the target of hunting by the villagers, and he could not get angry or hurt others.
