Chapter 447: Seeking Death

Many things in the world often exist in the form of jokes.

Huayu Xianzun, who was regarded as the strongest person in Dongzhou, was forced to retreat to a small place like Yandang Mountain due to the fighting among his descendants, relatives and friends.

And those descendants who forced him also knew why this invincible man hid in Yandang Mountain.

Is it funny? Very funny.

What's even funnier is that it might be that the Immortal Master Huayu took away all the talents of the Li family, resulting in the fact that the cultivation talents of his several relatives and children were not very good. For two whole generations, there has not been anyone who has reached the pinnacle realm.

In other words, all the sons and grandsons that Huayu Xianzun was familiar with were dead.

Therefore, in the hearts of those people in the Yuhua Immortal Sect, the 'Huayu blood relatives', they do not want the Immortal Master Huayu to return to the Yuhua Holy Land, because they are afraid that the Immortal Master Huayu will compete with them for power.

But they were afraid of losing the support of Immortal Master Huayu. Hence the current situation.

They placed the Immortal Master Huayu on an "altar".

They would pay homage during every festival, seek shelter when encountering problems, and even send disciples to Yandang Mountain every year to "pay homage to their ancestors" in the hope of learning something from the tribe, but they have never mentioned welcoming the Immortal Master Huayu back to the holy land, not even once.

Not only did Huayu Immortal Venerable find this matter very funny, but some old guys who knew the inside story also thought so, and even regarded this "family affair" of Huayu Immortal Venerable as a joke in their hearts.

It's funny, but I feel lucky and sad at the same time.

Huayu is like this, so why aren’t they the same?

yes.

Even the best man in the world can be bound tightly by a web of relationships called 'love', so how can they, who are not as good as Huayu, escape from this web of love?

Two days later.

Ziwei Mountain.

When Chen Zhixing saw Chen Tianyuan, dressed in a Confucian robe, appear in front of him, he did not feel any surprise.

He didn't ask stupid questions like "Didn't you go to the outside world?", but just picked up a bottle of wine from the table and handed it over.

Then Chen Tianyuan replied, "I don't drink."

It's quite boring.

"If you don't drink, I will."

As he spoke, Chen Zhixing put the bottle of wine to his lips.

Three seconds later, Chen Zhixing spat out the bitter, spicy, and slightly sour stuff and looked up at the sky in silence: "Can this thing be called wine?"

Chen Tianyuan smiled and nodded: "When I first tried drinking, I had the same idea as you, that drinking this thing was self-harm. Then, after reading a lot of poems describing alcohol, I thought I had drunk the wrong thing, so I tried a few other things."

"And then you won't drink anymore?"

"Then I decided that drinking is indeed a form of self-harm, but those who wrote about drinking in poetry found pleasure in the process of self-harm."

It was a very clever answer, leaving Chen Zhixing speechless.

It seems that when people get old, they like to talk about things in the past, want to pass on their past experiences, and want to leave something in this world. After this meeting, Chen Tianyuan was particularly talkative.

From food and clothing to local customs and practices, to local delicacies, and some of the places he visited when he was young, where there were many beautiful women and which were dominated by fierce women.

Of course, there were also some adventures he had encountered in his youth.

Well, some fun, but not very practical experiences.

He talked about True Lord Yi Miao, True Lord Dai Hu, and many True Lords he knew or who had witnessed their attainment of immortality. Naturally, he also mentioned True Lord Hua Yu, who had been revered as an Immortal Lord.

Chen Zhixing was like a younger generation who loved to listen to an old man telling stories. He sat opposite and listened with a smile, not interrupting, just letting the old man look back on the things he had experienced.

In this way, Chen Tianyuan talked from sunrise to sunset.

It was not until the last ray of afterglow in the sky fell that the old man suddenly came to his senses and said to Chen Zhixing with nostalgia:

"I am dying."

"Yes, I know."

"The Chen family members who practiced the Five Elements Qi Gathering Method cannot become the Immortal Lord. At least, my talent is not enough to reach that step. Even if you put the Gold Nature in front of me, it will be useless."

"Um."

"In fact, my father, your ancestor, told us this when he was still alive, but all my brothers and sisters have accepted their fate over the years. I am the only one who is unwilling to believe it, and I have been unwilling to believe it until now."

"Well, Patriarch Changfeng is right, and you are also right."

"Hehe, hahahaha, I thought so too."

Chen Tianyuan raised his hand, as if he wanted to touch Chen Zhixing's head, but then he remembered that he and the child in front of him didn't seem that close, and that the child was now a "big shot", so it was not appropriate to do so.

In the end, the hand fell on Chen Zhixing's head.

Who cares! What else in this world can possibly concern an old man who is about to die?

To Chen Tianyuan's surprise, Chen Zhixing did not dodge, but let him rub his head.

Chen Tianyuan smiled when he saw this, a very happy smile.

"You know, my old friends and I saw the black turtle in the North Sea before. After we showed our intention to deprive it of its golden nature, it not only did not refuse, but also split a piece of golden nature from its body and threw it in front of us, and told us that if we could take it away, it would be ours."

"Well, when you encountered such a good opportunity, you ran away without grabbing it?"

“I want it too!” Chen Tianyuan slapped his thigh hard when he said this, and then he cursed with a look of disappointment: “But who would have thought that my old arms and legs are not up to the task. I clearly grasped the golden essence with my hands, but the golden essence is like sand and it leaked out of my hands. Hehe, you know, it’s like grasping a handful of sand. As soon as I exert force, it leaks out. Damn it!”

"Is it because of incompatibility of attributes?"

“Hahaha, I actually hope so, but that dragon turtle, who lacks virtue for eight lifetimes, looked at us guys who couldn’t catch Jin Xing with a mocking look, and told us the truth.”

"oh."

"It said that our cultivation is not good enough. Even if it put the Golden Nature in front of us, it would not matter. That is, the Golden Nature belongs to it. If it was ownerless, we would be sucked dry of our cultivation after coming into contact with it, which means we would die. Hehehe, this old bastard also said that we were lucky to have met it. If it had been someone else, we would have died too. It also said that we owed it a life."

Chen Tianyuan seemed a little discouraged when he said this, and grabbed a few of his gray hairs with a sense of disappointment.

"But I don't think that's the case. It's not what it says. It should be that I'm too old, so old that the golden nature doesn't look down on me. If I were younger, I would definitely be able to grasp the golden nature, right?"

"Yes, if you were two thousand years younger, that strand of golden nature would be in your hands and it would not escape."

Chen Zhixing answered with a smile, and it was unclear whether his answer was sincere or just for comfort.

Chen Tianyuan believed it, so he slapped his thigh hard again.

"I knew it was like that! That damn old bastard! Sun thief, when you have time, go and snatch that old bastard's gold for me. I, your ancestor, really can't bear to see him showing off like that!"

"good."

Chen Zhixing agreed with a smile.

after.

But I also find it quite boring.

Just like Chen Tianyuan said, he was about to die.

He shouldn't have died so soon. Even after Jin Xing took away his Taoism, he could still live for nearly twenty years by relying on his Taoism.

But the old man was determined to come back this time. When he entered Dongzhou, he gave his Taoism skills, which had been almost exploited by the Five Elements Taoist Master, to the Immortal Master Huayu for more than a hundred years, buying this "ticket home".

It is not that Chen Tianyuan is at the end of his life now. He still has ten years of cultivation left in his body. If he does not suffer any disaster or illness, he should be able to hold on for another year or two.

But when a person is about to die, he will experience the five signs of decay and can no longer continue to practice.

At this time, he still has to continue to face the exploitation of the Five Elements Taoist Master. After his Taoist practice of more than ten years is constantly being drained, can he last for another month?

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

More importantly, Chen Tianyuan wanted to die.

If not for this, he would not have returned to Ziwei Mountain.

He really had enough of living.

"Forget it, you bastard, you didn't really listen to what I said, you were just trying to deal with me, right?"

"without."

"Oh, you're still saying no. When your grandfather Chen Daoyan's soul lamp went out, I knew you must have some complaints about the family. Now you're still lying to me in front of a dying old man. Do you really think I'm deaf and blind?"

"Hey, you are still strong and healthy, so don't say such unlucky words."

"Bullshit, I don't even know my own body. I'm telling you, little bastard, it doesn't matter where I die, but when we return to Ziwei Mountain, you must remember to bury me in the mountain. Um, the small platform at the tip of the second peak. I've been eyeing that piece of land for more than a thousand years. When I die, you must remember to bury me there!"

"well"

"What the hell are you sighing about? You are so young, and you keep sighing all day. If others hear it, they will think that I, your ancestor, have done something to you."

"No, you are a man of high esteem."

"Oh, that's natural. By the way, do you know now why I don't allow you to join the three holy places?"

"knew."

"It's good to know, it's good to know. Now that I know, even if I didn't recognize the wrong person, my life will be complete!"

As he said this, Chen Tianyuan leaned back and fell asleep with a smile on his face, braving the cold mountain wind.

Well, I really fell asleep and didn’t die.

I just walked this distance, I'm tired and want to take a rest.

Chen Tianyuan sighed again, thought about it, and used the means of transformation to build a small house around the old man, and transformed the bluestone under the old man into a soft bed.

There's nothing to be angry about.

This ancestor never did anything to let him down.

Even though he had thought before that the other party was 'not helping me' and was treating me as a chess piece, it was only natural.

What’s past is past.

After all, he is your ancestor, and an ancestor who is about to die. What can you do to him? Why be angry with him?

As he thought about it, Chen Zhixing laughed out loud.

After walking out of the cottage and looking at the moon that had just risen above his head, Chen Zhixing sighed.

"Grandfather, you are right about one thing. Anyone who has a little bit of aspirations cannot join the three holy places. Just for this reason, I am worthy of worshipping you."

The old man is really not dead.

Not only did he not die, but when the sun just came out the next day, he came to Chen Zhixing again to talk.

They were all nonsense, and he was not afraid that Chen Zhixing would get tired of listening and run away.

In his own words, Chen Zhixing is now a wanted criminal in the entire Dadong Continent. Apart from the small piece of land in front of his home, he will be beaten wherever he goes. Where else can he run to? He has to guard this hidden Ziwei Mountain and this dying old man honestly and make do with his life.

In response, Chen Zhixing could only smile.

However, after chatting for three days, the old man gave Chen Zhixing something that surprised Chen Zhixing.

"Li Er owes me a life, old man, and he must pay it back."

Chen Zhixing: “!!!”

At that time, Chen Zhixing was preparing food for the old man and almost put his hand into the fire.

The old man just looked at him with a smile, seeming very satisfied with Chen Zhixing's surprised expression, and even a little proud.

"Old man, didn't I tell you before that I have a friend in the realm of immortality in the East China Sea? He owes me a life."

"Immortal Master Huayu? He owes you a life? Will he pay it back?" This time Chen Zhixing was really surprised. He really didn't expect that when the old man was about to die, he would actually reveal such a big story to him.

"Why not return it? You would not return something you borrowed from someone?" Chen Tianyuan laughed. "You know, if you really count it up, the entire Dongxuan Continent owes Li Er. We have all done things that are unfair to Li Er. But it just so happens that your ancestor, your ancestor, owes me, and owes us two!"

This time the old man didn’t mention Ziwei Chen family.

"Hahaha, you know what, if I wanted, I could ask Li Er to snatch the gold back for me as long as I thought about it. But I won't do that. I will make him owe me the money for the rest of his life. Even after I die, he will still remember the debt, remember how good I was, remember that he still has such a debt, and remember that you, a little bastard, may come to collect the debt from him at any time! Hehehehe, hahahahahahahaha"

The old man must be going crazy! "You know, it's not a pleasant feeling to owe someone money, especially when he wants to pay it back but you don't want him to pay it back and you force him to owe you money. It's a very tangled feeling in your heart."

"I"

"Hahahaha, the old man knows that I don't have much hope in this life, and it would be a waste to use me! But when I die, this debt will increase in value. Don't let him pay it back so easily!"

"Well"

"But don't be like me. If you really encounter difficulties and can't solve them yourself, just go to him! When the time comes, as long as you are thick-skinned, no matter what kind of trouble you encounter, he will solve it for you, and it must be solved cleanly and neatly. Otherwise, don't recognize him, understand?"
