Hanging pot to help the world, I just want to live forever

Chapter 344 The Big Wedding Day
Zhenchuan.

There are vast mountains and rivers here.

Logically speaking, it should be called an idyllic scene with birds singing and flowers fragrant.

However, there are frequent earthquakes in this place, occasionally spreading widely, and the exposed geology is too harsh and hard, and there are very few places where food can be grown. As time goes by, very few people are willing to stay here.

Of course, this place also has its own legends, such as the place where dragon veins meet, and what suppresses ancient evil spirits. These mysterious stories are widely circulated, and most of them are speculation.

However, this place is quite a good place for Gu Dan.

To refine acquired qi, naturally, the less human beings there are, the better.

Among Zhenchuan, there are many unnamed mountains.

Choose one at random and drill in, and you will not meet a single person for many years.

Even if it blows up during qi refining, it doesn't matter if the mountains shake and the ground shakes, anyway, this place often shakes the mountains and the ground, not worse than his few times, so it won't affect anyone.

Gu Dan and Zhuang Sheng built two thatched huts in a flat village that is quite rare in Zhenchuan.

The village here is called Ping'an Village, with a simple and peaceful name.

There are only over a thousand residents here, a small part of them grow food, a small part are fishermen, and the other part are hunters. There is also a blacksmith and tailor shop in the village, which can be considered as small as a sparrow, but with all the internal organs.

When Gu Dan and Zhuang Sheng came here, they also aroused the vigilance of the people in Ping'an Village.

However, Gu Dan is a tall man, even if it is still the fabricated appearance of Kong Zhai at this time, he can still be praised as a hero, even if he has no blood, just looking at his appearance is not easy to provoke.

That's what Gu Dan said when the village chief asked about their origins.

"My friends and I travel around the world, and when we get tired occasionally, we will find a secluded and quiet place to rest for a while. I wonder if Ping'an Village would like outsiders to live here?"

Gu Dan has a good eye, so it is not difficult to see that Ping'an Village seems to be quite xenophobic, and has a high degree of vigilance against outsiders.

"This unclaimed land can be inhabited by anyone."

The elderly village head is an old man in his sixties. Although he is not considered old and dim-sighted, he is already considered an advanced age compared to ordinary people at this time. His dark skin has lost its luster like dry bark after years of exposure to the sun. .

"only."

The village head hesitated and said: "The village is stable and I don't like contact with the outside world. If you two want to live here, please don't call friends."

"It's impossible."

Gu Dan nodded in agreement, how many friends does he have now?
If you want to shout, where should you shout?

Although he saw that Ping'an Village was a little different from ordinary villages and towns, he didn't care, and so did Zhuang Sheng.

So both of them settled down next to this safe village, and built two ordinary thatched huts.

Gu Dan's real purpose was to run out to refine acquired Qi, so naturally he did not go to get close to the people in Ping'an Village. He didn't even buy decent furniture, so he ran into the mountains and ran a long way. Road, the province scared the people of Ping An Village.

In an unnamed mountain, Gu Dan dug a big hole in the ground.

"Refining Qi."

With his eyes flickering, Gu Dan began to bleed himself.

The blood of the grand master is different from that of ordinary people. When the blood drips down the palm of his hand, it is extremely bright red and crystal clear like a blood diamond.

It contains a lot of vitality and strength, it is not an exaggeration to say that the blood is comparable to big medicine.

With the flow of blood, Gu Dan's face gradually turned pale, but when the green wood liquid was running a little, vitality poured in to fill the gap, and the rich vitality made the whole body glow rapidly. As the cycle continued, the big pit was gradually covered by his Filled with blood.

Gu Dan followed the method mentioned in "Refining Qi" and started his first attempt in the outside world.

Soon.

Gu Dan's figure flickered, passing by like a shooting star.

immediately
"boom!!!"

There was a deafening explosion, and the mountains shook and the ground shook!
Horrible sound waves swept up, without the weakening and cover of the formation, it was as if a meteor hit the ground, and the terrifying momentum seemed to be the end of the world.

Countless birds and beasts were startled, panicked, and ran away.

Undoubtedly, the first time I practiced Qi, I failed.

However, Gu Dan was not disappointed, if it was so easy to succeed in refining qi, I am afraid that the method of refining qi could be found everywhere.

A few failures are nothing, he has plenty of opportunities and time for trial and error, as long as he has enough experience, he will succeed sooner or later.

He can fail many times until he succeeds.

After all, what he has the most is time.

Time flies, and we come to Xianlin 96.

Gu Dan tried nearly a hundred times to refine Qi, but all ended in failure.

Seven years have passed, but he has not seen any changes at all.

Sometimes when I feel bored, I will go back to the thatched hut next to Ping'an Village. Zhuang Sheng is sometimes there and sometimes not.

This time it is here.

Not long after returning to the thatched hut, Zhuang Sheng and the village chief came together with a fishing rod and a fishing basket.

Seven years is neither long nor short.

Zhuang Sheng had a little more gray hair on his head, and his appearance didn't change much, but the village chief's figure had gradually become stooped.

Unlike Zhuang Sheng, Gu Dan is often not here. Although he has been here for seven years, most of the time he is busy with his own affairs in the nameless mountains. Seven years have passed, and he has not even really gone to Ping'an Village to have a good time. After wandering around, I really realized that the well water does not violate the river water.

Even more "outstanding" than the village head thought.

"The village chief is looking for me?"

Seeing the aging village head next to Zhuang Sheng, Gu Dan was a little curious.

"Our Ping'an Village, the reason why we are here is to take refuge."

After the village chief saw Gu Dan, he spoke slowly, but what he said was about Ping'an Village.

The origin of this village is not too mysterious. It is nothing more than a group of people and soldiers who chose a clean place that would not be disturbed by the outside world in order to avoid killing and hunting.

It has been multiplying and living in this way for more than a hundred years, and it has always been located here, with little contact with the outside world.

Therefore, most of the time, people in Ping'an Village don't have much contact with the outside world, so as not to cause disasters.

This place is not rich, it can even be called poor, and it is barely enough to have enough food and clothing—this is considered a great blessing.

But if you want to talk about luxurious enjoyment, there must be no such things here, and it won't attract any unnecessary attention.

"I see."

Gu Dan nodded lightly, but he didn't understand what the village chief meant by suddenly asking him to show off his cards.

"I see that both of you are men from good families, and you have no relatives or friends."

After a little deliberation, the village chief finally said: "Would you like to join Ping'an Village? There are quite a few women of the right age in the village, and both of them are outstanding-looking people. , might as well tie the knot, or have someone to take care of you, right?"

"."

Gu Dan understood the purpose of the village chief.

A village with more than a thousand people has been multiplied for a hundred years.

Then it is inevitable that there will be things like "kissing and kissing".

But this matter is not pleasing to the heavens. Most of the children born have hidden diseases or even distortions, and there is no cure for them.

It is unavoidable that outsiders are needed to 'dilute' this probability, which can also be regarded as injecting fresh water into Ping'an Village.

It's just that although this place is stable, there is not much prosperity to enjoy, and the village doesn't like to communicate with the outside world, so it's quite a headache to think about it.

The two of them came here and lived here for more than seven years. Although Gu Dan was often not here, Zhuang Sheng was there a lot of the time, and had a lot of interactions with the people of Ping'an Village.

He can be a fisherman or a hunter, and he can work in the fields and farms. He often calls the children in the village together to tell various stories, which can be regarded as his responsibility as a "teacher".

In terms of Zhuang Sheng's ability, this is naturally an extremely simple matter.

Of course, he was loved and recognized by Ping An Village.

Therefore, under the tempering of time, the village head, who thought the two could be trusted, threw out his invitation.

I hope that Zhuang Sheng and Gu Dan will settle down in Ping'an Village and officially become a villager.

"I often travel around and live in no fixed place. I'm afraid I won't be able to delay others."

After thinking about it for a while, Gu Dan naturally declined politely.

If he had the idea of ​​starting a family, there would have been opportunities as early as the Xia Dynasty.

He is not a ruthless person, nor is he completely 'unattractive to women'. However, with the improvement of his strength, let alone making his heart flutter, it is now even more difficult for him to 'get into his eyes'.

Besides, an ordinary woman is determined not to be able to stand up to his tossing, a careless rise, the consequences are unimaginable.

No matter from which point of view, it is naturally impossible to agree.

"Oh it's all right."

The village chief nodded in disappointment, but he wasn't too surprised.

This wandering wild crane seemed to really have no interest in the people in the village, and he hadn't even met them a few times in so many years.

Immediately, the village head's eyes fell on Zhuang Sheng.

Although Zhuang Sheng already had gray hair, his appearance was still handsome and unrestrained, he looked more like a "young man with white hair". How could he know that he was already over a hundred years old, an old man in the ordinary sense.

Of course, it is true that this age is no longer young in the Buzhou Mountains at this time.

But unexpectedly, Zhuang Sheng said with great interest, "That's not bad."

"Ok?"

When these words came out, Gu Dan was a little surprised.

In this small village, is it possible that there are some beautiful people who can make Zhuang move his heart?
With Zhuang Sheng's nod, the village chief had a lot of smiles on his face. To him, Zhuang Sheng was the one he admired most, and inviting Gu Dan was just incidental.

So I left here contentedly.

"Why do you want to start a family all of a sudden?"

Gu Dan asked.

"As you live in this world, you must always have inheritance."

Zhuang Sheng looked at it very openly, and pointed to his whitening hair, "Leaving a blood relationship in this paradise is not a waste of time."

Regarding his choice, Gu Dan is naturally not good at saying anything, he never tells others how to go.

However, before getting married, Zhuang Sheng left Ping'an Village for a while.

It took a full half a year before turning back.

The village chief almost thought he had run away.

When he came back, Zhuang Sheng memorized a lot of books.

It seems that he really plans to spend his old age here peacefully.

"I went back to Ningfang, and now there are more than a dozen foundation builders in Ningfang, and all the monks are at the middle stage of Qi training at least."

After returning, Zhuang Sheng informed Gu Dan.

Since the successful attack on Huofang, all attempts to recruit immortal seedlings in Xianfang have stopped.

After so many years of hard work, the overall strength has naturally improved a lot. I am afraid that it will not be long before the second war will break out.

But that has nothing to do with them staying in Zhenchuan.

As the saying goes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away.

This is the case in Ping'an Village, which is an escape from the world, so why not for them?
"Oh."

Gu Dan's expression remained unchanged, and he nodded noncommittally.

Zhuang Sheng returned home for the first time, but Gu Dan didn't go out much.

A few days later, Zhuang Sheng said, "I'm getting married."

"with who?"

This time, Gu Dan finally showed some interest and met the woman Zhuang Sheng fell in love with.

To Gu Dan's surprise, the woman who wants to marry Zhuang Sheng is not a young girl, but a widow.

The widow was in her twenties, and her husband was a hunter who was killed by a ferocious beast.

Its appearance is just ordinary, but its figure is relatively plump.

No matter how you look at it, Gu Dan can't see anything unusual.

"What do you like about her?"

Gu Dan asked curiously.

"It's fine to get married, just know how to live."

Zhuang Sheng said indifferently: "She is diligent, considerate, and kind-hearted, and that's enough."

In this way, Gu Dan naturally wouldn't say anything more.

Before Zhuang Sheng's wedding, Gu Dan ran to the mountains and slaughtered several wild boars, hares, and even a white-fronted worm, as a gift for Zhuang Sheng.

After all, money is useless in Ping An Village.

Such harvest and handwriting immediately made Gu Dan a master in the hearts of Ping'an villagers. It can be said that he is a real person without showing his face.

Even in front of his thatched hut, unmarried girls and even widows often pass by, and often go to his hut to beg for water.

Fortunately, Gu Dan can handle it.

Finally, Zhuang Sheng got married.

On the wedding day, the entire Ping'an Village is celebrating.

The prey brought by Gu Dan is boiled into delicious meat, and everyone who sees it will have a share.

The tiger whip is naturally for Zhuang Sheng.

Don't care whether it's useful or not, just say that it's not what you want!

However, at the wedding banquet, Gu Dan was a bit 'outrageous'.

He was arranged at the woman's table by the village head.

From eleven or twelve-year-old girls to widows who still have charm.

There are often women who hold cups and precious wine and want to drink with Gu Dan.

There is nothing wrong with taking care of yourself.

After drinking a large slice quickly, Gu Dan's expression was calm, without any trace of drunkenness.

Now his surroundings can be regarded as clean.

Zhuang Sheng came with a wine cup, and when he saw a large drunken woman crawling down from Gu Dan's table, he said with a smile, "Brother Kong is too far away from people."

Gu Dan sighed and said, "If you get close, it will inevitably hurt people's hearts."

"Drink together."

Zhuang Sheng didn't say anything, picked up the full wine cup, and drank it down in one gulp.

"Drink together."

Gu Dan raised his wine glass.

When the wine enters the throat, its taste is sour and slightly bitter.
