Bring some shock to the world of cultivating immortals

"In ancient times, there was a scholar named Chu, who was from Datong, Shanxi Province. One day he met a cat. Its body was black and its legs were white. The cat was trapped by a hunter, and he begged Chuzi to free it. Chuzi then freed it. He also treated his wounds. A few years later, a cat came looking for Chu Zi and turned into a girl in a black skirt and white stockings, hoping to retaliate. When asked what she wanted, Chu Zi said: "I want a four-wheeled iron carriage with eight in the front and five in the back." To gallop. Catwoman said: "Mr. Chu is so stupid." "

Putting down the fantasy record in his hand, Zhou Li looked at the black cat squatting on the edge of the carriage in front of him, and asked curiously: "So this is the story of your previous life?"

"fake."

Licking his paws, the black cat said mercilessly: "Can a black cat with nine lives be trapped in a hunter's trap? It's even less reliable than you suddenly changing your mind and becoming a human being."

"Wow, that's really impossible."

Tang Wan exclaimed.

"So is it true when they say a cat can't beat a dog?"

Zhou Li held the black cat in his arms. Zhou Li would naturally avoid her in Xu Xuan's form, but Xu Xuan in the black cat form was so cute that she felt no guilt when playing with her. Zhou Li was used to it The pleasure of having two handfuls every now and then.

Black cat, small, fragrant and soft.

"fake."

Stretching its body, the black cat enjoyed Zhou Li's techniques and purred. It tilted its head, squinted its eyes, and its voice was thin and crisp.

"How can a dog be a cat's natural enemy if he is so stupid?"

"is it?"

Zhou Li was stunned for a moment, then he turned his head and said seriously: "Tang Wan, come on!"

"Ouch!...Oh, that's not right."

Tang Wan reacted quickly, and a fierce look suddenly appeared on his face. Before her vicious dog could roar, Zhou Li threw out a piece of meat-stuffed sesame cake as usual. Tang Wan reached out his hand, grabbed the sesame cake, chose to ignore the faults of the villain, and ate it happily.

"Why are you acting the same as when I was teasing the dog before?"

Black Cat was a little confused.

"Didn't you already tell me the answer?"

Zhou Li lowered his head and took a sip of tea, saying nothing.

"about to rest."

Zhu Qianyun opened the curtain, and she was full of heroism riding a dark war horse. But when his eyes fell on Tang Wan, Zhu Qianyun's originally vigilant eyes softened.

Zhou Li, who was gagged for no apparent reason, scratched his head, then opened the car door and jumped out. He looked around and saw that the official road was flat and there was no one in sight, and the surrounding area was a fairly vast grassland, which was more suitable for a short rest.

It was about a thousand miles from Shangjing to Taiying, and it would take at least ten days to take the official road, and it would only pass through two cities along the way, making it difficult to supply supplies. So Zhou Li and others brought two carriages and six horses, plus a lot of luggage, to ensure that these days would not be too miserable.

Of course, the main reason is actually not the above, but...

"I definitely didn't eat it secretly."

Tang Wan held the sesame cakes and said with a serious face: "I just moved Zhou Li's rations from tomorrow to today and gave them to me as a gift. I think there is no problem."

"Did Zhou Li know that his rations were given away?"

Zhu Qianyun said helplessly.

"Qianyun, you don't understand."

Holding hands behind his back, Tang Wan said sincerely: "Silent gift is a rare tacit understanding between friends."

Zhu Qianyun laughed a few times, glad that she had brought more food, otherwise she seriously doubted whether the food on the carriage would be enough for Tang Wan to eat alone before going to the next city.

"wrong."

Looking at Tang Wan and Zhu Qianyun who were fetching water not far away, Zhou Li, who had been chopping firewood without saying a word, suddenly stopped what he was doing. He wiped his sweat and said solemnly: "Although there is no evidence, Tang Wan definitely didn't hold it in."

"Mr. Zhou, I suggest you be more polite."

With a flick of his hand, the immortal energy came out fiercely and chopped the wood in front of Zhou Li cleanly. Zhuge Qing sighed and said, "Xiao Bai is not far away, don't lead him into trouble."

"Huh? Aren't you afraid that I will lead you astray?"

Zhou Li looked at the chopped firewood in front of him and asked happily.

"what."

Zhuge Qing thought for a while and didn't bother to cover it up. He waved his hand and chuckled: "I don't need you to take it."

"Too."

Zhou Li thought for a moment and felt relieved. The two looked at each other and smiled, and decided to go to the forest to find some cabbage that Zhou Li had mentioned before. According to Zhou Li, he is the only one in the entire Beiliang who can handle this unique green vegetable, and the others are not worth mentioning.

After a while, Xu Teda came over with a hammer and nails. He looked at the neat and square firewood on the ground and fell into deep thought.

Where are the wooden piles I used to make the shelves?

On the mountain grass, Yun Baibai had already prepared simple cooking utensils. She stood obediently behind the pot, looked at the condiment bottles given to her by Zhou Li in front of her, and began to memorize the use of each one in detail.

Liu Gong was sitting in the carriage, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, wearing a peepshow, and reading an ancient book with the sunlight coming from the window. Cen Shu, who was sitting opposite him, said nothing, just corrected the roster in her hand, and sighed from time to time.

"What? Bad grades?"

Liu Gong adjusted his reading glasses and looked up at the test paper in Cen Shu's hand.

“Not satisfactory.”

Cen Shu sighed and put down the roster and the brush stained with red ink. She raised her head and said with a slight complaint: "Lingqi is not bad, there are many third- and second-grade people, and there are also a few fourth-grade ones who can be leaders. But the graduation results of the martial arts class are too poor, both in terms of experience and consciousness. They are all weak, and Teruzhou is far behind them."

"How can this be the same thing?"

After laughing, Liu Gong shook his head and said, "You are insulting Zhou Li by comparing him with these weaker flowers. He has seen blood, killed monsters, and people. Even you You may not be able to beat him.”

"Oh, I know that too."

Cen Shu put down the roll list feebly. She rubbed her eyebrows and said distressedly: "I just don't understand why the gap between people is bigger than the gap between people and animals. It's clear that Yun Baibai is also He is only twenty years old, but he is several levels better than the students under me. No matter in terms of character or strength...sigh."

"It's normal."

Liu Gong said without raising his head: "The Nuo opera witch is a being that even the Dragon Vein clan covets. Coupled with Yun Baibai's temperament that is more determined than gold and stone, not to mention those crooked melons and cracked jujubes in Taixue. Even the nobles in the first hall of the capital who claim to be the proud sons of heaven are not even half as good as her."

"Ugh."

Hearing this, Cen Shu pursed her lips and felt a little complicated for a moment. She closed the register and said with some helplessness: "Birth... really determines everything from the beginning."

"Girl Cen, let me ask you a question."

Putting down the "Witch Record" in his hand, Liu Gong said calmly: "Does Zhou Li have any talent?"

After hearing Liu Gong's inquiry, Cen Shu was stunned.

"But he..."

Cen Shu only said two words and could not continue. She had long ago learned from Liu Gong that Zhou Li's spiritual veins had long been broken, and now he was at most the level of a Four Realm Spiritual Energy Master. Not to mention the white snake that had half a foot in the banished immortal, even the spiritual energy in her own body far exceeded that of Zhou Li.

"You and I both understand that he has nothing."

Looking at Cen Shu in front of him, the old man who had lived for more than eighty years said calmly: "There is no huge family, no life experience like Zhu Qianyun, no knowledge and experience like mine, and no talent like your demon clan. So why? , he finally killed Ancient God Fahai and did something that neither you nor I can do?"

"Supernatural powers? And...he is the destined one."

After hesitating for a moment, Cen Shu said hesitantly: "Everything he did went so smoothly, as if God was also helping him. He had all the conditions to kill Fahai, it was too... a coincidence ." "Really?"

Liu Gong touched his goatee and asked meaningfully: "Do you really think destiny is helping him?"

"Ah."

Nodding, Cen Shu said calmly: "I agree with Mr. Zhou's intelligence and agility, but everything at that time was too coincidental. If it weren't for the fact that there happened to be a zombie and a pure-minded monster beside him, I don't think he could Defeat Ancient God Fahai.”

"Cen Shu, the monster clan can continue because of your long lifespan. But you cannot prosper, but it is also because of this long lifespan."

Smiling and shaking his head, Liu Gong looked at Cen Shu, who was in a daze. Liu Gong said slowly: "The long lifespan of the demon clan has made you accustomed to waiting and observing, and passive acceptance. But humans are different. Our lives are too long. It’s so short, so short that if you don’t fight for it or choose it, I’m afraid this life will be fleeting and wasted.”

Cen Shu was speechless. She just stared blankly at the books placed on Liu Gong's lap. She was so overwhelmed with thoughts that she didn't know how to speak.

"You only saw Zuo Qianhu and the zombie helping Zhou Li, but you didn't see how deep their trust in Zhou Li was. Zuo Qianhu was smart and smart, but the Western zombie had a childish heart that could see through others. You Do you think that if Zhou Li was just a lucky boy, they would trust Zhou Li so easily, entrust themselves to him, and become a weapon to attack the ancient gods?"

Holding the tea cup, Liu Gong looked at the silent Cen Shu in front of him with a half-smile. He saw it very clearly. At that time, many people in Zhou Li were helping him, but no one thought that they were being used. If Zhou Li was just a lucky man, I'm afraid these talented and extraordinary people would have abandoned him long ago.

"Girl Cen, you have to understand something."

Picking up the book and turning over the page that he had recorded previously, Liu Gong said slowly and calmly:

"It was not that the Nuo opera witch chose Yun Baibai, but that Yun Baibai chose to become the Nuo opera witch. Just like Zhou Li, he was able to kill the ancient god Fahai not because he was the destined person, but because he He chose to become the God-Slayer.”

"Cen Shu, whatever kind of person or monster you want to be, you don't have to let nature take its course, nor does it depend on God's will."

"It depends on yourself and what kind of person you want to be."

"Ah, yes, I am a cub."

Zhou Li looked at Tang Wan with bulging cheeks and said matter-of-factly: "What else?"

Just now, without any evidence, Zhou Li came back from picking vegetables and ate half of the roasted mutton that Tang Wan had hidden for a long time, just because "I think she farted badly".

"you do not trust me."

Tang Wan said sadly: "How can you say that I ate your rations? You don't even have evidence. This is a sign of distrust between us."

"Haha, I trust you too much."

Zhou Li was holding the vegetable basket with his left hand and lifted Tang Wan with his right hand. Tang Wan, who is about 25 meters tall and meters tall, is too lazy to struggle and can only keep talking about how friends should trust each other.

Then, Zhou Li turned her upside down and gave her two hard squeezes.

Looking at the scones that fell to the ground and were wrapped in oil paper, Tang Wan smiled with relief.

"Kill me."

Tang Wan simply failed.

"never mind."

Zhou Li suddenly sighed. Under Tang Wan's shocked gaze, he adjusted his angle and placed Tang Wan on the ground, picked up the scones and stuffed them into her hands. Zhou Li stretched out his hand, and Tang Wan stiffened subconsciously. But Zhou Li rubbed Tang Wan's head with his hand, hesitated to speak, and finally shook his head and walked over.

what.

Tang Wan looked at Zhou Li's back blankly, not understanding what was going on for a while.

what's the situation?

So let me go?

Looking at the sesame seeds in his hand and Zhou Li's back, Tang Wan's expression gradually stiffened.

Damn it, this kid Zhou Li definitely didn’t hold it in well.

He's going to make a big one.

"Young Master Zhou just let Guan'er go like this?"

Zhuge Qing, who was helping Yun Baibai wash the vegetables, raised his head and smiled narrowly: "Is it so easy?"

"Look, you don't understand."

Zhou Li walked happily to Yun Baibai, helped her tidy up the temporary stove, and said with a smile: "This is the effect I want."

Glancing at Tang Wan who was hesitant but extremely vigilant not far away, Zhuge Qing shook his head in confusion.

"Brother Zhou, pass it to me."

Compared with the girls from Sichuan and Shu in Shudao Mountain, as a woman from the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, Yun Baibai's voice is soft and melodious, with a bit of a cutesy tone. She looked at Zhou Li and said, "I want a salt shaker."

"promise."

Zhou Li casually handed the salt shaker to Yun Baibai. According to common sense, he should be the one to cook, but Yun Baibai volunteered and insisted that she wanted to cook for everyone, so Zhou Li obeyed her. But he was afraid that Yun Baibai, a young lady from a wealthy family, might come up with some magical substance, so he watched from the side and was ready to give some advice when appropriate.

result.

"Zhou Li, I have something I don't know whether to say or not."

Leaning beside the carriage, Tang Wan raised his little face from the bowl and said seriously: "Although I still love to eat your cooking, it's a pity that you are unemployed."

For the first time, Zhou Li did not habitually argue with Tang Wan, nor did he get angry and fix Tang Wan. He just looked at the golden fried rice in the bowl in disbelief, rubbed his eyes, and felt as if he had traveled to the wrong place.

"Are you the little boss?"

Zhou Li looked at Yun Baibai, who was standing with his hands behind his back and smiling, and exclaimed: "What a skill you have."

"The first deity I met after becoming a Nuo opera witch was actually not the goddess Chang'e from Guanghan Palace."

After hearing Zhou Li's praise, Yun Baibai's eyes were as crescent-shaped, and he smiled and said, "The first person I had access to the gods was Peng Zu."

"Peng Zu?"

Zhangyu Tang Wan made a confused sound.

"The ancestor of the cook."

Zhou Li took another bite of the cabbage soup, and the delicious and sweet taste made him want to stop. Out of curiosity, he asked: "So Xiaobai, why is Peng Zu the first person you have to connect with the gods?"

Yun Baibai didn't answer, but put a piece of candied egg into Zhou Li's bowl with a smile. Under the watchful eyes of Zhou Li, who was confused, and Zhuge Qing, who was watching everything, Yun Baibai picked up his bowl and chopsticks and drank her soup.

"Master Zhou..."

Zhuge Qing patted Zhou Li on the shoulder and hesitated to speak.

"what?"

Zhou Li was stunned. His expression now was exactly the same as Tang Wan's just now, confused and at a loss.

"Ugh."

With a sigh, Zhuge Qing said helplessly: "I'd better talk to Sister Taoyao after I go back."

"what????"

Zhou Li was even more panicked. (End of chapter)
