He raised his thumbs high and said: "Exalted and sage, magnanimous and magnanimous. This is how it should be, and how it should be. It is truly enviable."
The old man chuckled and said, "Since my little friend is so envious, wouldn't it be nice to stay with me here and spend the day leisurely?"
"Ah?" Zuo Xiaoduo was dumbfounded, and then shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, I'm still young. How have I ever lived like this? Please stop making trouble."
The old man smiled lightly: "That's right, little friend... you are still very young!"
It is obviously a very common saying, but it is said by this old man with profound meaning and lasting aftertaste.
Zuo Xiaoduo chuckled, but didn't talk anymore.
"Your distinguished guests have tea." The old man picked up the teapot and poured the tea. There was a look of nostalgia in his eyes, and he said leisurely: "Since I can remember, in so many years, my little friend is the second person who has come here."
Zuo Xiaoduo picked up the teacup and thanked him first: "Thank you for the good tea...I wonder who the first guest you always entertained...ahem...what kind of tea is this?!"
The moment he took the tea into his mouth, Zuo Xiaoduo's expression changed drastically, his eyes widened in disbelief.
The tea went down his throat, into his abdomen, and into his stomach. Zuo Xiaoduo felt that every part of his body was in a state of laziness, and then the feeling extended to his meridians, making him indescribable.
Extremely comfortable and iron-fitting.
This is a completely unfamiliar energy, at least Zuo Xiaoduo has never seen it before.
It was not spiritual power, mental power, or vitality. It was not any known form of energy expression, but it was a kind of... extremely special beneficial energy.
At this moment, Zuo Xiaoduo almost groaned in comfort. While trying to hold it back, he still clearly felt that the meridians all over his body were being warmed by the warm energy of the tea, along with many peripheral nerves, which should have been worn out by practicing.
Or maybe the dull areas were all filled with life in this moment!
Although this energy is completely unfamiliar and completely unknown, it is obviously full of huge benefits.
Zuo Xiaoduo licked his lips, smacked his lips, and looked at the teapot with eyes that suddenly became hot.
The old man smiled lightly and said: "It's just some trinkets, not a sign of respect. If the distinguished guest thinks it's okay, you might as well take some with you when you leave."
"good!"
Zuo Xiaoduo agreed without being polite at all.
Such a good thing, no matter how much you give me, I won't think it's too much. Only gentlemen and hypocrites will pretend to be polite. We don't act in vain and just take it.
The old man pondered for a moment, lowered his head, and continued to make tea. A sentimental look gradually appeared on his face, and he said, "My friend, I came here this time because of the ancestral witch Zhu Rong, right?"
Zuo Xiaoduo was shocked, and his expression became more respectful: "Even the elders at this level know this. As expected, the seniors are very knowledgeable and knowledgeable."
The old man shook his head gently, with an indescribable look of melancholy on his face: "Sure enough, I knew a long time ago that this was... something that was agreed upon back then."
"What was agreed back then?"
At this time, Zuo Xiaoduo was even more shocked, and for a moment he didn't know how to speak anymore!
This old man made an appointment with Zhu Rong Zuwu for today?
Is this... is this possible!?
But if what this old man said is true, then how old must the old man in front of him be?
Even tens of thousands of years old!
Maybe hundreds of thousands of years old, or maybe millions of years old!?
this……
This one must have lived too long!
The old man smiled faintly, the sadness on his face only appeared for a moment, and then disappeared quickly.
I saw him giving Zuo Xiaoduo another cup of tea, his white eyebrows twitching, and he said calmly: "Since my little friend has obtained the inheritance of Zhu Rong's ancestral witch and came here in person, there is no need to leave in a hurry... I wonder if my little friend
Are you interested in listening to me tell a story while you have a cup of tea?"
"The seniors are kind and the juniors are all ears."
Zuo Xiaoduo responded more and more obediently, sitting very properly with his shoulders and back straight.
Faced with this kind of old monster...a super old monster who has status and qualifications, can meet Zhu Rong Zuwu, and has lived till now, the only thing Zuo Xiaoduo can do is, of course, be as obedient as he can be.
Just be so well-behaved!
I can't afford it!
This person is most likely the real... number one under the current starry sky and on the three continents, so you can't afford to offend him, right?
"Before, there was a person in charge of the Wu clan who came to this place. He was also the first person in my mouth, named Hong Miao. This person was able to come here just by chance. Because of his experience and lost his way, he came here by accident. At that time, that person came here by chance.
Hong Miao is no more than a young man, and his strength is no more than meer."
The old man said calmly: "He went deep into the dense forest and was chased by monsters and demon masters. He was seriously injured and panicked. He accidentally broke into the Tianling Forest and was sent to me by those big guys..."
"Then, I got a copy of the ancestral shaman inheritance from me. I felt that the way of swordsmanship lacked the killing spirit, and it was difficult to fit with myself, so I took the essence of the void from me, made two sledgehammers, and walked away.
"
"Since then, until now, no second person has entered the hinterland of Tianling Forest. Compared to you, Hong Miao was able to come here because of destiny. He was desperate. It was not ability, but luck.
.”
"As for you, little friend, you are subject to the restrictions that were agreed upon long ago. If you accept the inheritance of the ancestral witch Zhu Rong, you will be sent here."
The old man smiled lightly and said, "So, you two are very different."
Zuo Xiaoduo was stunned for a moment: Hong Miao?
Who is Hong Miao?
Logically speaking, those who can obtain such unparalleled destiny, who can get out of this old man, and gain huge gains, are definitely not ordinary people, and should have a great reputation!
But Zuo Xiaoduo searched through all his memories, any books he had read, and countless legends he had heard, but he could not find any clues that "Hong Miao" was involved.
The only guess that can be considered reliable is that the old man mentioned two sledgehammers just now, so this Hong Miao should be famous for his sledgehammer. Couldn't he be the invincible Flood Witch now?
But this is just Zuo Xiaoduo's guess. There is no evidence to confirm it, so naturally he won't say it rashly.
He just pretended to pick up the teacup casually, drank the tea respectfully, took advantage of it openly, and continued to listen to the story.
"It's been a long time, really a long time..."
The old man raised his head slightly, as if he was meditating and remembering.
Zuo Xiaoduo suddenly thought of something and blurted out: "Then Hong Miao went deep into the dense forest and finally entered the hinterland of Tianling Forest. The reason was that he was chased by monsters and demon masters... This, in this dense forest
, and there are monsters and demons?"
The old man's train of thought was interrupted by what he said, and he showed a somewhat displeased expression. He frowned and said, "Isn't this a perfectly normal thing? You... please be patient. I will sort out what happened back then... Really
It was too long ago and a little blurry..."
He glanced at Zuo Xiaoduo and said, "Be quiet and don't interrupt."
Zuo Xiaoduo nodded obediently, sat upright, picked up the tea cup, and drank tea in a cute and obedient manner, with a serious look on his face.
"That was...one hundred thousand...twenty...no, how many years ago...it's really too vague."
The old man did the math and finally gave up, saying: "Day by day passes here, sometimes for years and decades at a time, with little contact with the outside world. I really don't know how many years have passed. There are no armor in the mountains, and time passes in the forest...
…”
As he spoke, he felt peaceful and lost.
Zuo Xiaoduo secretly smacked his tongue, drank tea obediently, and said: "That's not important. You live a long life, and the passage of time is just the end of it."
The old man nodded: "Yes, that's not important. It's really just the last detail."
"I remember that time...I suddenly opened up my spiritual wisdom...but it was our Spiritual Emperor who casually enlightened me..."
The old man said: "I still remember that after His Majesty the Spirit Emperor enlightened Lao Chan, the first thing that Lao Chan heard when his spiritual wisdom was just beginning was His Majesty the Spirit Emperor's faint surprise. The old man said: Hey, this grasshopper,
To have such strong luck is beyond expectation."
"Gudu."
Zuo Xiaoduo swallowed the sip of tea that he almost spit out and swallowed it down with great perseverance. His stomach was turbulent for a while, and he almost laughed out loud.
Grasshopper?
If my understanding is correct, it should be purslane?
This glorious old man in front of me is actually this?
The most important thing is that people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured!
However, whether it is grasshopper or purslane, they should be just the most common and common wild vegetables, right?
Well, it probably comes from a sudden enlightenment, coupled with countless years of practice and tempering. Isn’t there that saying, standing on the wind, a pig can fly...
Zuo Xiaoduo's face looked cute, but he didn't know where the dirty thoughts were in his mind...
"I still remember that at the beginning, it was a war between the nine tribes, attacking each other, the sky and the earth were pale, the sun and the moon were dim..."
The old man said with full of memories: "First, there were dragons, phoenixes, unicorns, and three thousand demon gods. They fought so hard that all living things were silenced... Later, the demon clan took advantage of the situation and rose up. Two demon kings unified the demon court and called themselves heaven. They were absolutely independent."
He stands above all other clans and is proud of his peers."
"Compared to the Demon Clan, which is at its peak, the other tribes are actually a little weaker, or perhaps more than one. For example, the Demon Clan arbitrarily intervened in the Long Han catastrophe, and countless elites in the clan fell, but they did not resent the Monster Clan's standing in the sky.
At the top of the mountain, the battle between Jue and the demon was the most miserable. They were almost beaten to pieces. Only the Dao clan could compete with them. As for the others, even the Western clan was defeated one after another.
Dare to enter the customs and violate the territory."
"After that battle, our spirit race retreated into the Forest of All Spirits and hid from the world, never to come back again."
"Then the Witch Clan used the earth to fight against the sky and competed with the Demon Clan for the main role in the world. The world was shattered and the sun and the moon withered. After that, for some reason, the Demon Clan, the Western Clan, the Spirit Clan, the Soul Clan, the Human Clan, etc. were also defeated.
One after another got involved..."
"When the war started, I was just a little grass that had just given birth to spiritual intelligence... But one day, just when the Spirit Tribe entered the war, His Majesty the Spirit Emperor suddenly called me over."
"At that time, His Majesty the Spiritual Emperor was also with Lord Water Witch Gonggong and Lord Earth Witch Houtu."
