Cheng Wen and Cheng Yi were both simple by nature.
Even though they have become masters of martial arts, they still stick to their duties, live a monotonous and peaceful life, do not participate in the battles in the wilderness, and have no fight with the world.
In their words.
Their martial arts cultivation is due to saving the life of their senior more than a hundred years ago.
They don't know how to fight. Even if they break into the turbulent world of the Wilderness, they won't be able to make much waves. They might as well live their lives quietly.
At the foot of the wild mountainous area, there are hundreds of families. They are also farmers and have no martial arts training. They rely on hunting skills passed down from their ancestors and farming to make ends meet.
Although my life was poor, it was pretty good.
Cheng Wen and Cheng Yi used their own cultivation to protect and eliminate natural and man-made disasters, and gradually became the patron saints in the eyes of these farmers.
More than a hundred years have passed.
The two brothers and sisters could not withstand the ravages of time. As for the friends they grew up with, they became a pile of dirt one after another.
"Aniu."
"I brought a spiritual rabbit from the back mountain. This is your favorite game in the past. It can nourish your body. Please take a few bites."
At the foot of the mountain, in a stone house, Cheng Yi held a porcelain bowl and handed it to the bed.
Lying on the bed was a frail old man, who seemed to be Cheng Yi's elder.
His hair was sparse, he was emaciated, all his teeth were missing, he was terribly old, and he was very breathless. It was obvious that he only had his last breath left.
At this moment, as if he was coming back to his senses, he raised his trembling hand, took the porcelain bowl, and started eating with big mouthfuls.
Because he had no teeth, he swallowed all the meat in the porcelain bowl whole, causing him to cough repeatedly, which made Cheng Yi feel sore.
This is the only farmer of her generation at the foot of the mountain.
One hundred years ago.
A Niu was as strong as a bull, with astonishing strength and majesty. He had attracted the attention of many women, and even she was the same.
But in just the blink of an eye, why did he become like this?
"Xiaoyi...I once liked you..."
The old Aniu slurred his words while eating meat, as if he had swallowed it, and tears rolled down his cloudy eyes.
"Like...more than me?"
Cheng Yi was stunned.
Suddenly, A Niu's care for him as a child and the fact that he never married came to his mind, and he suddenly understood.
"But before I can express my feelings, you are already a master of the sixth level of martial arts and the patron saint of our place."
"I was holding my breath and wanted to practice martial arts, thinking that one day I would have the confidence to marry you, but in the end, I still couldn't survive the years..."
A Niu had already put down the porcelain bowl and stretched out his trembling hands, but before they even touched Cheng Yi's face, he lowered them.
"A Niu, you will never marry, and I will never marry either..."
Looking at the dead old man on the bed, Cheng Yi grinned, tears falling silently.
The love deep in her heart had withered before it could even take root.
A Niu left.
Among the farmers at the foot of the mountain, they are considered to have longevity.
He was buried in the back mountain.
Cheng Yi sat in front of the new tomb, hugging his knees and motionless.
"well!"
Cheng Wen, a strong man with white temples, walked over, looked at his sister, and sighed.
It was really uncomfortable to watch the people around him wither one by one. After so many years, he also looked away.
"Yi'er, even if you and A Niu really get together, there will be a day like this."
"And, maybe in one or two hundred years, we will be lying here too."
"So I mean, please be more bearish." Cheng Wen comforted.
The cultivation of the sixth level of martial arts can only delay aging, but it is not enough to make them invulnerable to time.
"I don't feel bad."
Cheng Yi raised his head and said softly, "Brother, I want to practice martial arts."
"Practice?"
Cheng Wen was stunned.
to be honest.
The two brothers and sisters do not have outstanding martial arts qualifications.
Once you decide to practice martial arts, you have to say goodbye to your current peaceful life.
"I don't want to kill people. I just want to be capable enough to protect the people around me. I don't want them to be taken away by time." Cheng Yi continued.
"guard……"
Cheng Wen recited these two words silently in his heart.
Think back over the years.
Isn’t what they did just to protect us?
Cheng Yi's original intention has not changed, but his state of mind has changed.
"Since you practice martial arts, I, as the elder brother, naturally want to accompany you!" Cheng Wen suddenly laughed.
At the foot of the mountain, all the people of the same generation have withered away, and there is no longer any concern.
Although there was a road full of thorns in front of him, he was not afraid.
Cheng Yi nodded, got up, and went back to pack his things with his brother, preparing to leave this homeland.
The brother and sister are extremely famous in this wild mountainous area and are regarded as patron saints by farmers. However, they do not enjoy special treatment and live in ordinary stone houses.
When the brother and sister pushed the door open and entered, they found a young man in black clothes and black hair standing in the house with his hands behind his back.
"Senior...senior?"
The brother and sister's eyes suddenly widened.
In the wilderness, there are many people who have ascended, but they have never seen any living beings who can ascend and come back.
"Senior, please teach me how to practice martial arts!"
Cheng Yi took a deep breath and stepped forward to pay homage seriously.
Cheng Wen came to his senses and quickly followed suit.
The two brothers and sisters decided to practice martial arts, and wasn't the mysterious strong man in front of them the Master?
"Martial arts are too weak, I will only teach you how to practice the spiritual path."
"Starting from tomorrow, come to Houshan to meditate with me."
Xiao Ye glanced at the brothers and sisters, with a smile on his face.
these years.
He has been observing this brother and sister.
If this brother and sister relied on their sudden martial arts skills to act recklessly to fill the greed in their hearts, then he would be disappointed.
But Cheng Yi and Cheng Wen did not.
As usual, these brothers and sisters have a pure heart and have become the patron saints of the mountains.
Protection is also the most original motivation for him to pursue martial arts and reach the peak of the divine level.
Although the martial arts qualifications of the brother and sister were very different, from this aspect, he was very satisfied.
He did not interfere with the fate of the farmers at the foot of the mountain. This was not cruelty or indifference.
But because this is what this brother and sister must experience.
Only by changing your state of mind can you be fearless and go further.
Otherwise, how could you be qualified to be selected by him and become the candidate for the plan to create a perfect creature?
The voice fell.
Xiao Ye disappeared like a ball of blue smoke.
"Now that I'm trapped in the world of domination, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out until Senior Brother Wen and others wake up."
"I don't know what's going on in the chaotic world now."
In the wild mountainous area, Xiao Ye sat cross-legged.
"But it's okay, it's just a good time to practice quietly and see if you can break through to the infinite peak. Use this as a springboard to transform into an innate god!"
