Tiandao doesn't work today
Chapter 5 Who in the world doesn’t eat fungi?
On a snowy slope in Chashan Mountain, the cook held the baby girl in his arms and looked behind him panting. The old man Jiang was extremely tenacious and was still chasing up step by step.
He picked up the stone and threw it down!
While smashing it back, he shouted: "Old man, you are obsessed! What you hold in your arms is a monster!"
Old Man Jiang said angrily: "Nonsense, they are all my children, I picked them up together!"
The cook shouted in a serious tone: "You admit that you are not a bastard? He is different from this girl. Look how human he is! He is obviously a monster he picked up!"
After listening to his words, Old Man Jiang looked down at the baby boy. The child had his eyes open, sucking his fingers, and was looking at him curiously.
To be fair, it looks like a baby, not much bigger than two palms, and there is no weird thing like green face and fangs.
It’s not normal, it’s really not normal anywhere!
He is not afraid of the cold, and can actually sleep peacefully in the heavy snow under the severe cold. He even feels warm all over his body.
He was not afraid of the heat, and could even climb out of the boiling water pot. Except for the hard struggle when he first threw it into the pot, which made his skin burn red, he was completely unscathed afterwards, leaving no marks at all, and was still moist and smooth.
Not a crybaby! For such a small child, he could not even open his eyes originally, but now, with his big black eyes, he can open his eyes to the sun and face the wind without fear.
All these strange phenomena can only be explained by monsters.
In comparison, the baby girl in the cook's arms was completely normal.
His eyes were closed tightly, he was trembling, and he was crying heartbreakingly.
Old Man Jiang shouted: "Give me the child quickly. The girl is about to freeze. Only the heat from my grandson can save her!"
The cook felt that he was unreasonable: "Fool! I can't give you Ashue! Don't you know! Monsters are cannibals! They turn into humans to lie to you! Then they will eat all your bones!"
Old Man Jiang blurted out: "Didn't you eat it too?"
As soon as these words came out, the cook froze, as if struck by lightning, speechless.
He seemed unable to believe his ears, and he seemed unable to believe his memory.
His eyes were blank at first, then turned into pain, until he became resigned to his fate.
Old Man Jiang seemed to be looking away: "What if it's a monster? If he wants to eat me, I'll give it to him! Give it to him!"
If it were before winter, he would really be afraid of monsters, after all, he had heard many scary stories spread in the countryside.
However, after experiencing so many desperate blows, at this moment he felt that monsters had nothing to fear.
Is there anything more desperate than a loved one starving to death in your arms? Tyranny is stronger than demons!
Now that Old Man Jiang's home is gone, his family is gone, and he is heartbroken. It was these two children who gave him hope to live.
Not to mention such a cute child, even if it is really a green-faced, fanged, monster that drinks blood, the old man is too lazy to run away, so he might as well give it to the monster to eat, so that he can go to hell early and keep his children and grandchildren company.
After hearing the old man's words about death, the cook lowered his head and looked at the baby girl.
Seeing that it was frozen and weak from crying, he quickly covered it tighter.
However, it was freezing cold, and the two clothes he wore could not keep the child warm.
The cook murmured: "Yeah, what's so scary about monsters?"
"Can he really save Ashue?"
Old Man Jiang finally climbed under the pine tree. Seeing that the cook did not stop him, he took the baby girl and held the two children together.
He leaned against the big tree and curled up.
"Yes, I was lying on the ice lake before, and everyone hugged each other, and they all slept warmly!"
"You come too!"
The cook couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw the baby girl just clinging to the baby boy, as if she was getting into a warm embrace.
He took a deep look, retreated to the other side of the big tree, hugged himself and curled up and said, "I don't have to."
Old Man Jiang didn't say much, so the two of them just leaned on the side of the big tree, hunkering down, enduring the hunger and cold.
After a while, Old Man Jiang said, "Can you light a fire? I'm keeping myself warm, but you'll freeze to death if you do this."
The cook murmured: "If you freeze to death, just freeze to death. There are so many people freezing to death, and I am the only one left."
Seeing his lifeless words, Old Man Jiang smiled: "You light a fire, so we can..."
"..." The cook was stunned and said: "You want to eat too?"
"You have to live, I still want to bring them up." Old Man Jiang seemed to be talking nonsense.
The cook smiled bitterly, and then said in a tone of despair that was almost like crying: "They can't be fed... they haven't even been weaned..."
Old Man Jiang said firmly: "Those who can survive, let's gather up enough strength, then go to the city and find refuge with a good family... those who can survive."
The cook cried and laughed: "Going into the city? Hahaha, it's strange that the nobles in the city would care about us. There were refugees in Donglai who rebelled, so Langya County also ordered all counties to close the city gates to prevent the people from causing chaos... …Don’t you know that there are piles of corpses outside the city?”
Only then did Old Man Jiang realize that there was such a simple reason why he was not allowed to enter the city.
He was at a loss for a moment and said stubbornly: "There is always a way."
The cook sighed: "But I don't want to eat it... swallow it... That's why they especially want to cook these two children."
"Why do you want to protect this girl? Do you know her? Do you call her Axue?" Old Man Jiang asked, expressing his doubts.
The cook shook his head: "Axue is my daughter... She was born when the heavy snow started, so she named her Xue... After all the houses in the village collapsed, I took my wife and daughter to the county town, but they were washed away on the road in the past two days. I've been looking for it. I couldn't find it. I was so hungry that I couldn't walk, so I ate."
Old Man Jiang suddenly realized, no wonder this man was so tender to the baby girl. It turned out that he really had a daughter. When he was about to cook, he remembered that his daughter was still missing, so of course he softened his heart.
"Then you have to live even more. You haven't found them yet."
The cook's tone was bitter: "When we were separated, I had been sick and hungry for three days. Now..."
Old Man Jiang suddenly thought that the corpses on the roadside that he had accidentally seen before were also the mother and daughter, and he buried them conveniently.
It can't be such a coincidence, right? Old Man Jiang asked casually: "Are you wearing an iron wrench?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, the cook jumped up and hurriedly climbed from the other side of the tree, ecstatically asking, "Have you seen them?"
Seeing this, Old Man Jiang was shocked and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"My wife wears an iron wrench on her little finger, right? Really?" the cook asked, while observing Old Man Jiang's expression, and gradually the joy on his face disappeared.
The two of them looked at each other in silence, and the cook laughed miserably, his hands and feet went weak, and he couldn't support himself, and he rolled down the snow slope.
They climbed up this slope for more than two hundred feet. When they fell, the cook rolled into a snowball on the spot and stopped motionless at the bottom of the slope.
Old Man Jiang hurriedly chased after him, trying to pull the person out, but within a few moments, his hands were frozen to the bone.
He thought of the mysterious baby in his arms and tried to let the warm current melt the snow away.
However, what surprised him was...the ice and snow were still dry when the baby's hands were grasped!
"Ah?" Old Man Jiang was confused.
Then I suddenly remembered that when I first saw the baby, he was lying on the ice lake and did not melt the ice lake at all.
Although my whole body felt warm and warm, there was no heat rising.
As if this heat can only be used to warm the body?
Old Man Jiang felt that this strange phenomenon was impacting his cognition, but he could think of it as a monster. Maybe it was just like this, and he didn't understand it.
He immediately put this surprise behind him and started digging through the snow desperately to pull the cook out.
However, he didn't know that someone was squatting on the treetop a hundred feet away, looking at this place from a distance.
"The art of embracing yin and negating yang?"
This person is Chen Hu, with a face full of disbelief, recognizing the beauty of this kind of snow that does not melt.
He had been observing for a long time and knew that the demon baby was always hot, otherwise the old man and the girl would have froze to death.
However, this enthusiasm does not affect the outside world at all, and the subtle and nuanced methods behind it can be described as brilliant.
This was the first time he had seen this phenomenon, but he had also heard from his master that there were monks who could emit a ball of fire that would only burn a specific target. They could control all the yang-heat energy accurately, and it would not melt when it encountered snow or ice. Without transformation, water cannot be extinguished and earth cannot be destroyed.
There were thousands of people in the sea of fire, but only one person was burned. If you are burned by such a flame, unless there is a way to break it, it will be useless to jump into the Yellow River. It can even burn people to death on the bottom of the sea.
This is a typical magic that embraces yin and negates yang. It is the caster who determines where the yang-heat energy is transmitted.
Most of those who master this type of magic are alchemists. In order to control the heat of the alchemy furnace, they have created various methods of using the two qi of yin and yang.
In the same furnace, half boiling water and half snow, these are the basics. Melting the cinnabar in the ice and freezing the mercury in the magma are considered advanced methods.
But when dozens of materials are smelted in one furnace, the distribution of cold and heat can be arbitrary, the temperature can be adjusted to the extreme, and the proportion of yin and yang in every inch or even every millimeter can be controlled. That is the ultimate skill.
Of course, regardless of whether it is basic or extreme, this is a power that is completely out of reach for him in the body tempering stage.
Not to mention him, even the founder of the Tuntianmen sect has never seen this technique. He only heard about it when discussing Tao with others...
Unexpectedly, he saw it in a baby today, no, a monster?
"What state is he in? Divine consciousness stage? Luck stage? Or is he a great demon who has attained the Tao stage?"
Chen Hu was very distressed. His master only said that those who mastered this kind of magic were "profound monks", but the word "profound" was too subtle. How advanced was it? Chen Hu didn’t know anything.
To him, monks in the spiritual consciousness stage are considered advanced people, so is this demon baby really in the spiritual consciousness stage?
Thinking of this, Chen Hu took out a jade talisman. This was an 'evil-proof talisman', which could offset the harm done by a magical monk's spell.
He has four pieces on his body, which were given by his master to save his life. After all, the Tiantian Clan is a martial arts sect on the surface, but secretly, it has found a new way to help people become Taoists because of the rare objects and treasures. Therefore, it can be regarded as a half-immortal family and belongs to the ranks of immortal cultivators. of miscellaneous cultivators.
In normal travels, this thing is not used at all. It was not even used in the battle against the dog demon last year, because the dog demon was not good at magic and only liked to use magic power to strengthen its sharp teeth and fight with the body.
"Now this demon baby is probably good at magic. I thought this jade talisman would come in handy..."
"But if he is in the spiritual consciousness stage... then..."
Suddenly, Chen Hu looked at the refugee being restrained in his hands, and his heart moved slightly: "Eh? Yes!"
I saw him pulling the refugee back a little further, and then exhaled his true energy, poured it into the refugee's body, and violently impacted his eight extraordinary meridians. Finally, they converged and broke the opponent's three entrances: Tailu, Jiaji, and Jade Pillow. , connected with his second line of serving as governor.
"Roar!" In an instant, the refugee screamed, feeling extremely painful.
Then a mouthful of blood spurted out, his eyes turned red, his muscles swelled, veins popped up all over his body, and his blood surged like a small snake dancing under the surface.
However, after the severe pain, there was a surge of strength. He felt that he was so powerful that he could kill a cow with one punch.
"Boom!" The refugee kicked a stubborn rock away, causing it to break into pieces.
"Ahhh! I am Xi! Chu! Ba! King!"
At this moment, he felt like he was the resurrected Overlord! Unable to control himself, he punched Chen Hu fiercely.
"Huh? Huh!" Chen Hu snorted coldly and let his fist hit his chest.
In an instant, the refugee was struck by a huge counter-shock force and flew backwards, rolling two or three feet away in the snow.
"The three-legged cat's kung fu is worthy of being compared to that of the Overlord? Who gave you the courage!" Chen Hu spat, his face full of annoyance.
If he was just punched by the opponent, he didn't care. After all, he suddenly had such powerful Qi, and even stimulated many physical potentials, most people would be confused.
But the other party dared to compare himself to the Overlord, which was simply ridiculous. Yu’s bravery was unparalleled throughout the ages! This is unanimously recognized by everyone from the court to the martial arts community and then to the immortal sect!
Wang Siwen, the world's number one among the mortals today, claims that "immortals are immortal and I am invincible", but in fact he is far from being an overlord!
An immortal said that throughout the ages, no one is known to have surpassed the thirty-year-old Xiang Yu in martial arts!
What a terrible fact is this? This was when he committed suicide at the age of thirty-one. At that time, the only person who could kill him was himself.
It can be said that the Overlord is the benchmark in the hearts of all warriors. Chen Hu has infinite respect for him. How can he allow others to defile him?
"Hmph, listen, you bitch, go kill that demon baby. I want you to take out a piece of jade bone from his body."
"Don't think about useless things. The energy in your body belongs to me. I can kill you at any time."
Chen Hu's tone was indifferent, clearly asking this refugee to act as a vanguard and test the waters. But he first hid in the dark and did what he could.
Warriors with profound internal skills have the theory of spreading qi, which means releasing external qi to treat people's illnesses and injuries.
Since it can heal wounds, it can also kill people, and it can even develop other wonderful uses.
At this time, the refugees were forced to open the Rendu and Du meridians by his Bu Qi Chongguan, stored their own Qi for five years, and stimulated their potential, with nearly a thousand catties of power.
This is already extremely remarkable. Even the second-rate warriors in the world may not have this kind of power, but Chen Hu doesn't care because he has to pay for it with his life.
He was actually talking nonsense about taking a dog's life at any time. This refugee could not survive for a quarter of an hour at most.
However, it was just used to test the demon baby's strength, and a quarter of an hour was enough.
…
p.s: Sorry.
