Chapter 34 Chasing the Bull

"XXXX yuan has been received in Alipay..."

After confirming the payment information, the beef farm staff who put away the payment code looked at the young man in front of him in a strange way.

"Little brother, why did you buy this old cow? I'm not talking too much, but I think a young man like you doesn't look like a farmer. Besides, this kind of old cow has long since lost its strength and can't pull a plow. Rake, what’s the use of buying such a cow?”

Li Heng put away his phone and just smiled and said, "Just buy it."

The other party touched his head, got in the car and left with this answer that was hardly an answer.

"Moo——"

The old Niu stood beside Li Heng and called to him softly, as quietly and calmly as if he were an old acquaintance.

Holding the hemp rope around the cow's nose, Li Heng pulled the old cow aimlessly and continued to walk aimlessly in the wilderness.

To be honest, even he himself didn't quite understand the significance of this move.

This cow was bought by my father when he was in his prime, and he was still a middle school student when he sold it. It has been more than ten years now.

"It's obsession"

After a night and a morning of thinking and understanding, he figured out the crux of his heart, and even strengthened his mental power when he opened the crux.

However, where can a mere farm cow go?

It's just a cowshed, a house, and a field that is taken back and forth. These few places in its life are everything, its "universe" and "world."

Following the aimless pace of the old cow, Li Heng walked behind quite relaxedly. He didn't know where the old cow would take him.

I heard a sound coming from the front, which was the slippery gravel under the hooves of the cow. On this rather difficult slope, the old cow missed the step and was about to fall down the slope and plunge into the mountain stream below!

brush--

"Just like I can't forget my ordinary life in the past, the ordinary is a part that I can't let go of, even if I have to transcend the ordinary and touch the extraordinary."

Li Heng followed the old cow roaming freely on the grass field and suddenly understood everything.

Li Heng couldn't help but become interested. He wanted to see what this "old friend" who was nearing the end of his life was going to do.

"Moo——"

Such a farm cow that only works in the fields all its life has probably never been outside the village. Its life trajectory should only be between the cowshed and the farm house, but why did it come here, to this place outside the village? Back mountain.

Most of them are relatively low barren mountains, with sporadic vegetation growing only a few hundred meters high. Some of the peaks are relatively tall and covered with dense forests. Miscellaneous trees, shrubs, weeds and ferns and moss are spread over the mountains to cover them. The land is covered with rocks and rocks, and only a few areas where mountain roads have been built are accessible for driving.

This made Li Heng's interest even more intense. Hearing the faint sound of heavy and labored breathing from the front, he really couldn't understand why this old cow with almost dry life came here. Such a difficult road would only speed up. It goes into decline.

He couldn't help but laugh at himself, and patted the cow's head with sparse fur. The old cow mooed in response to him again, and then lowered his head to take a bite of grass on the field ridge.

"I seem to understand..."

Now he can easily withstand even an old cow weighing several thousand kilograms, and his strength is rare in the world.

No matter how young it is, it is at least ten years old. As a cow, it has basically reached the end of its life. If you buy it, there is no way to extend its life.

But even such steps supported it step by step across the dirt road, across the woods, and onto the small dirt slope at the foot of the mountain.

But in such a place, two uninvited guests came today. The old Niu, who was in his dying years, took Li Heng step by step into the haystacks and shrubs half a person deep, and advanced along the unstructured mountain road, slowly going deep into the

Inside the den.

"This cow seems to be really not simple."

Lao Niu's steps were very slow, and his appearance of old age was unmistakable. He felt like he would lie down on the roadside at any time.

"I was born ordinary, and like all ordinary people, I carry my obsession with it because of ordinary memories."

And if he walks by himself, no matter how casual it is, it will always be accompanied by a certain degree of subconscious determination, so he might as well just follow a cow that doesn't know where it is going, without thinking about it and just watching where it goes.

Throwing down the cow rope in his hand and untying the rope ring on the cow's nose, he let the old cow gain final freedom in its final stage of life.

Back Mountain is just Li Heng’s name for the mountains behind the entire village. In fact, it is far more than just one mountain, but a continuous stretch of undulating mountains of varying heights.

This actually made Li Heng feel a little surprised.

At this moment, he saw that the mental value on the panel also jumped twice in a row, increasing from 143 to 145.

Li Heng murmured to himself. The question he had been thinking about for a long time after touching the supernatural last night got a clue at this moment.

He let out a long breath, and the stagnation in his chest suddenly became clear. He understood what was understandable and accepted what was acceptable.

But there is an advantage, at least it will not suffer from "cosmic phobia" or "world phobia".

After the old cow regained its footing on all four hooves, he turned around and grinned at Li Heng, as if to thank him.

Li Heng showed a relieved smile. Although the road ahead was rugged and difficult to navigate, he felt that the road under his feet was calm.

But it doesn't matter where he takes him, he needs freedom at this moment.

Looking at the pair of bull's eyes, he suddenly figured it out.

"I will carry the past with me in order to move towards the future, and only with the help of ordinary obsession can I touch the extraordinary border."

Just when Li Heng was thinking this, the old cow had already walked down the field ridge. He no longer continued to eat the weeds on the edge of the field, but walked onto the dirt road beside it.

The remaining places that cannot be cultivated and have little economic value have been abandoned all year round and have become the home of a large number of wild animals and plants. Few people are interested in them and they are sparsely populated.

Wow——

While chewing the grass, he blinked his big bull eyes and looked at Li Heng.

"They are like marks carved on a tree trunk. No matter how tall the tree grows, even if it becomes a towering tree, these marks will only remain in place and become an integral part of the trunk as it grows."

"Ordinaryness is not scary. What is scary is not being able to face the ordinary."

Li Heng, who had always been unwilling to believe in the existence of cows, ghosts and snake gods, had to admit at this moment that this "old acquaintance" had spirituality beyond his own knowledge.

Li Heng moved like flying, and took one step like an arrow to reach under the old cow and stand firmly. He supported the unbalanced cow's body with both hands and lifted it upright.

Of course, this may not necessarily be the result of some strange power and chaos.

It is also one of the spirits in the world, a creature that is nourished by heaven and earth. Even if human beings are the leader of all spirits, they should not be arbitrary and conceited and look down upon any other life.

Let's see what will happen to it. Li Heng continued to follow it all the way. During this period, the old cow squeaked and gasped many times, stopped and walked around in the dense wild forest for almost four or five hours.

Until Li Heng suddenly heard a series of ding-dong water sounds, and after bypassing a bush stacked like a hill, a narrow mountain peak appeared in front of him.
