Yunjieling spans three counties and meanders for thousands of miles. There are lush trees and numerous wild animals in the mountains.
At this time, a hillside was covered with piles of waist-high grass. Fourteen-year-old Chen Zining was alone, running wildly and throwing himself to the ground, shouting: "You're still running, let's see where you go."
Where to run? You really have to, you ate my drunken dream grass and you are still running so vigorously, could it be that Uncle Wu deceived me and gave me fake medicine?"
A white rabbit with extraordinarily long ears was running in front, but this rabbit was a little weird, as if it was deliberately teasing Chen Zining. Every time it jumped a few times, it stopped to rest, and its two red round eyes narrowed, feeling dizzy.
He was about to fall asleep, but when Chen Zining pounced on him, he suddenly jumped away, making the young man scream in anger.
Finally, Chen Zining became fierce, took a deep breath, aimed at the target, jumped up, and raised his whole body into the air. His hands were like the claws of an eagle and he grabbed the jackrabbit. He had not yet reacted to the pain of falling to the ground.
, the full and smooth feeling in his hands made him laugh with joy.
Chen Zining stood up, holding a long-eared rabbit that weighed four or five kilograms in his hand, raised it in front of his eyes and said to it: "Why run? In the end, it didn't fall into my hands, causing me to run so far, if I hadn't agreed
If I give it to my sister, I will stew you in a pot when I get back."
Suddenly I saw several traces of blood stuck to the white rabbit fur, and I couldn't help but scream: "Oh my God! I forgot that these are all sawgrass. If I had known, I would have worn a pair of gloves."
After saying that, he took out a rope and tied the limbs of the jackrabbit, and looked at his injured hands. It turned out that the hillside was covered with sawgrass with extremely sharp serrated edges. He was in a hurry to hunt down the jackrabbit, so he didn't care.
, along the way, he tried his best to push away the blades of grass. Now he saw that nine of the ten fingers were scratched and bleeding. A mountain boy like him didn't care about these minor injuries and pains. He was just worried.
The parents blamed him and thought to themselves: "If my mother saw it, I would inevitably get scolded. Fortunately, my father is a gentle man and can only say a few words at most. If it were my brothers, they would inevitably be rewarded with a meal of fried shredded pork with bamboo slices."
"
Chen Zining looked around, trying to find some herbs to heal injuries. In the mountains, hunting and practicing martial arts, knowing herbs is an essential skill for survival. After walking around for a few times, he couldn't find any herbs. Instead, he found the long-eared rabbit's nest.
Long-eared rabbits are different from other rabbits. They don't have three burrows. Instead, they dig their nests slightly larger and hide the entrance of the holes very carefully. Chen Zining thought to himself: "Is there a nest of little rabbits? If I can catch it, I will
If you give the little rabbit to your sister, the big rabbit will eat it and make you feel bad."
Chen Zining opened the hole a little, then stretched his right hand in, and fumbled for a while. To his disappointment, there were no little rabbits inside, just some hay. Suddenly, he touched a small stone with his right hand and took it out to take a look.
, I am so happy. This small stone is round and white with cyan filaments. This stone is called fluorescent stone. This thing can emit a white fluorescence in the dark. Some people also call it luminous stone. It can illuminate.
It was particularly interesting to light up a small room. Chen Zining had seen it once before.
But I haven’t seen anyone in the village using it. Firstly, it’s rare, and secondly, it can be sold for a good price. Those city people especially like some weird things. Chen Zining thought to himself, let someone sell this stone when he goes back, and let his father
I went to the city to buy those books that I had been envious of for a long time, and I was so greedy for a day or two.
Only then did Chen Zining remember the habit of the long-eared rabbit. This kind of rabbit, like some birds, likes to collect some shiny things. He stretched his right hand in again, dug hard, and took out all the things in the rabbit's nest.
, thinking how great it would be to find another fluorescent stone, but unfortunately, good things didn't come in pairs, and there was nothing else except a pile of hay to cushion the nest.
Hey! What is this?
Pushing aside the hay, Chen Zining found a small black circle from underneath. He picked it up and took a closer look. It looked like it was made of metal. It looked like a ring! Although there were no patterns or any carvings, it was indeed one worn by people in the city.
Ornaments, mostly worn on the fingers by people with high status.
Out of curiosity, Chen Zining put a set on the middle finger of his left hand. It was obviously too big and a little loose. He might have fallen off if he shook his hand lightly.
"It would be nice if it could be smaller," Chen Zining thought to himself.
Something extremely surprising happened to him. Under his gaze, the black ring on his middle finger was actually slowly getting smaller! He stopped until he felt a little tight.
"What is this?" Before Chen Zining could react, his mind suddenly went into chaos. A huge amount of information occupied his mind, making his head buzz. He rolled his eyes and fainted.
When he slowly regained consciousness, he was startled when he saw the sky. He saw that the sun had dropped below the mountains in the west, only half of his face was exposed, and the end of the sky was reflected in red clouds. The undulating mountains were in the sky.
Under the rays of the setting sun, it was also stained with a thin layer of blush.
Chen Zining quickly got up and saw that the long-eared rabbit was still tied up at his feet. He quickly grabbed it and ran towards his home. As he ran, he thought: "What a tragedy! What a tragedy! No matter how gentle my father is, I'm afraid he will have to do it this time."
I'm so mad, I might want to try the fried shredded pork with bamboo slices that Zikang and the others mentioned."
The mountains in the dark are even more dangerous. Although the area has been raided repeatedly by Chenjiacun, no one can guarantee that there is no danger.
A few days ago, Chen Zikang caught a living rabbit from his trap and gave it to his sister Qingqing. The little girl showed off her pet everywhere. Now, his precious sister quit.
He pestered his brother to have a rabbit, which was even prettier than the green rabbit.
Jackrabbits run so fast that even the hunting dogs in the village have trouble catching up. They are also very clever and rarely fall for traps. How can they catch them alive? Fortunately, Chen Zining has been influenced by his father since he was a child and has read a lot.
I learned from an ancient book that drunken dream grass is colorless and odorless, but it can anesthetize the nerves of animals, so I asked Uncle Wu to find some from the mountains, and dug out a few pieces of white jade potatoes that jackrabbits loved most, and put them into
Soak it in the juice of Zuimeng grass, and then place it on the road where long-eared rabbits must pass to drink water. After lying in wait for several days, I met one. This unlucky rabbit actually ate the jade potato into its stomach. What a pity.
It was Chen Zining who was a little impatient, or maybe he didn't know the time when the drunken dream grass broke out, so he alarmed the long-eared rabbit too early and almost lost him in pursuit.
"By the way, why did I suddenly faint just now?" Chen Zining came back to his senses and remembered the culprit that caused him to faint. He looked at the smaller ring on the middle finger of his left hand and wanted to take it off his finger and let it go.
What he didn't expect was that the ring seemed to have taken root and didn't move at all. He was a little panicked, but decided to put the matter aside for now. If he didn't return to the village before it got dark, his parents might be killed.
We need to mobilize the masses to conduct a large-scale search.
Chen Zining ran for a while and finally returned to Chenjia Village before nightfall. It was now time for every household to have dinner. When he walked out of the house out of breath, his father Chen Guangming and mother Zhan Ping were really anxious and were about to go out to look for someone.
, meeting Chen Zining would inevitably lead to a lesson.
On the other hand, his seven-year-old sister Chen Mushuang jumped up happily, hugged the long-eared rabbit and refused to let go. She hurriedly grabbed two mouthfuls of food and then ran out to play, presumably to show off everywhere.
Chen Zining applied medicine to the wound on his hand, then fell on the bed and fell asleep. Chen Guangming and Zhan Ping didn't pay attention, thinking that their son was tired from playing today and wanted to go to bed early.
On this night, Chen Zining had a very long dream. In the dream, Chen Zining came to a strange and magical world. People here could overturn rivers and seas, fly into the sky and into the earth, and were almost omnipotent.
And he himself became a cultivator named Qingwuzi. He became a disciple at a young age, practiced hard, and devoted himself to the Tao in order to seek immortality. He traveled freely in this wonderful world and experienced an extremely real and long life.
There was love and hate, affection and enmity. In the end, he failed to survive the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, and the remaining soul luckily hid in the Yankong Ring. However, the Nine-Destroying Hunyuan Thunder broke through the void and was forced to escape.
In the unknown space.
When he woke up, Chen Zining opened his eyes, jumped up, sat up, and murmured to himself: "My name is Qingwuzi, and I actually traveled to a world without cultivators! No! No! I am Chen Zining, I am
Growing up in Chenjiacun, I...who am I? Ah..."
Chen Zining suddenly held his head and hummed softly. He felt that two voices were arguing fiercely in his mind, which made him feel as if he had been hit several times with a dull stick. He was dizzy and couldn't think straight.
After a long time, Chen Zining's eyes became clear, he looked around, and said softly in a firm tone: "I am Chen Zining, my father and mother's son, and Shuangshuang's brother."
As for the other soul named Qingwuzi in his mind, he also understood that the black ring he picked up was the Yankong ring of this cultivator in the tribulation period. Although Qingwuzi still had a trace of soul left,
The body that was used as a carrier for sacrifice was destroyed and could only be regarded as an ownerless thing. It was sacrificed by the blood shed by Chen Zining due to a cut by sawgrass. Chen Zining was recognized as the master, and the soul of Qing Wuzi hidden in the ring was also
Following the connection between mind and heart, it invaded his sea of consciousness.
Fortunately for him, Yankongjie has been living in Shenglan Continent for thousands of years. The passage of time has wiped away most of Qingwuzi's memory and consciousness, leaving only the cultivation techniques he practiced day and night in his long life.
The few unforgettable past events are not the complete soul, otherwise Chen Zining would be just an ordinary young man who would have been reborn by Qing Wuzi long ago.
And Chen Zining got the Yankong Ring at the right time. Hundreds of years earlier, it would have been the result of having his body taken away, and hundreds of years later, it would not have happened. At that time, Qingwuzi's soul had been exhausted, so he got the ring and used his blood to sacrifice it.
It's useless. Without cultivation techniques and unique spiritual power, you can't open the Yankong Ring. Then this eighth-grade magic weapon-level storage ring is nothing more than a useless decoration.
Chen Zining raised his head and looked out the window. It was already bright. Chen Zining had no time to think about it. He hurriedly put on his clothes, walked out of the room, and rushed to the village square to start his daily morning exercises.
When Chen Zining arrived, two groups of people had gathered in the square covering an area of more than ten acres. On one side were adult men, and on the other side were more than 60 teenagers, all aged from ten to sixteen years old.
Chen Zining hurriedly stood up behind him. A boy of twelve or thirteen years old next to him smiled and said, "I really asked you to catch a jackrabbit yesterday. What trick did you use? Teach me my brother."
Chen Zining was about to answer when a sturdy man in his forties walked over. With a quick glance, the noisy square suddenly became quiet.
