"Uncle, I know that you are definitely not an ordinary person, but in our Dou Qi continent, strength is everything. There is no such thing as a hidden expert. If you have any ambitions in your heart, you will have to come out to realize them. Staying on top of this mountain, no one will understand you!"
Xiao Yan seemed to be very familiar with this place. While talking to the sloppy uncle who was dozing off under the tea tree, he went to the front of the hut, opened the lid of the cooking pot, and quickly boiled some water, as if preparing to stew the Spirit Tail Chicken in his hand.
"Then you guessed wrong. Your uncle, I really don't have any skills. I'm just a person who eats and waits for death. If you want to learn from others and enter the mountains to find a peerless expert, then you have really found the wrong place!"
The black robed man yawned, turned over, and once again changed to a more comfortable position. Crossing his legs, he continued to doze off.
Towards the uncle's lazy appearance, Xiao Yan seemed to have long been accustomed to it and casually asked, "Uncle, in this life, one must have some goals. Do you have any goals?"
"Heh heh, who cares about what happens after death when they are alive? Living comfortably every day is a day. Does this count as a goal?"
"Eh, it counts! You are really open-minded. In this world, I don't think there are many people more open-minded than you! "
Xiao Yan was somewhat speechless. Ever since he was six years old, when he secretly ran up the mountain, he found this uncle who always had a sleepy appearance. At that time, he thought that he must have met a hidden expert just like in the novels. Therefore, every three to five days, if he had nothing to do, he would run to the back of the mountain.
Sometimes he would bring food to the expert in his heart, sometimes he would bring some daily necessities. In short, he wanted to use his sincerity to move this peerless expert and have him teach him a move or two. In the future, when he walked the Dou Qi continent, wouldn't his prestige be limitless?
However, while dreams are plentiful, reality is harsh. He had persevered from the age of six to the present age of twelve. In the span of five years, he had grown from a child who had just started learning Dou Qi to a Dou Zhe who was famous throughout the entire Wu Tan City. But here, there was no progress at all.
The mischievous uncle was still a mischievous uncle. If there was food, he would eat it. If there was no food, he would starve. Every day, other than sleeping in front of the big tree, he would lie on the lawn and look at the stars. He seemed to have no goal in life and was living comfortably day by day.
Day after day passed. For over five years, Xiao Yan had gradually extinguished any thoughts of meeting an exceptional expert by chance. Although he was a little disappointed, the two of them had been friends for over five years. Every now and then, he would enter the mountains to visit his uncle. This habit of visiting him was something that Xiao Yan maintained.
"Uncle, let me tell you. Right now, I am the future of the entire Xiao Clan. I am the publicly recognized cultivation genius of Wu Tan City. In the future, I might even reach the Dou Huang realm and become a high and mighty figure!"
In the family, he was the rising star of the Xiao family, the number one genius of Wu Tan City. He had a lot of followers around him, but all of them had the intention of currying favor with him. In the big Xiao family, it was almost impossible for him to find a friend that he could talk to without scruples.
However, at the peak of the back mountain, Xiao Yan, who was already familiar with the uncle, did not have any misgivings. He could say whatever he wanted. In any case, this uncle, who did not have any great ambitions, had never left the back mountain during these years. Xiao Yan also did not need to worry that his secret would be revealed by him.
"Genius, how enviable. You must have a lot of girls who are interested in you right?" The black robed man took out a wine gourd from somewhere and leisurely took a sip as he asked with a smile.
"Heh heh, this genius naturally has a lot of girls following him. But, how could those vulgar girls enter the eyes of a future Dou Huang? You don't know, but each and every one of them has already learned how to dress up and put on makeup at such a young age. Although they are beautiful, it does not match their age. It makes people feel strange!"
At this time, Xiao Yan had already plucked the chicken's feathers and dug out its innards. After washing it with water, he placed the Spirit Tail Chicken into the iron pot. While showing off to the uncle, he continuously sprinkled various spices into the pot. It seemed that he had a deep understanding of how to eat a chicken.
"You should be content. A gentleman will die for his bosom friend, a woman will dress up for her lover. Every day, these girls dress up beautifully, isn't it all for you? You should know that nowadays, the price of high quality cosmetics is not cheap. A set of them would cost at least a few gold coins. Think about it, having a pile of gold coins revolving around you every day, wouldn't you feel a sense of accomplishment? "
"Eh, uncle, after hearing what you said, why do I suddenly feel that the atmosphere has changed? In the future, how do you want me to look straight at the girls in the clan?"
Xiao Yan could not help but sigh. After listening to the uncle's analogy, it was estimated that for a long time, when he saw girls in the future, the image of glittering gold coins would appear in his mind. That image was probably unbearable to look straight at!
The moon was bright, the stars were twinkling, and a gentle breeze was blowing through the mountain peak. One big and one small black-robed figure were happily gnawing on the Spirit Tail Chicken in their hands. From time to time, they would smack their lips and drink some wine. The taste was truly delicious!
"Uncle, now that I have completed the accumulation of Dou Qi, the Dou Qi in my body has turned into Dou Qi and I have become a Dou Zhe, I'm afraid that in the future, most of my time will be spent on training. The number of times I come to your place will probably decrease." Xiao Yan said as he licked his oily lips.
"It's fine. Even if you don't come for half a year, uncle, I won't starve to death. Before I met you, wasn't I living well?" The black robed man did not mind and took a sip of wine. He then raised his head to look at the vast starry sky and smiled meaningfully.
"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future. Who knows, maybe in the future, you will come to the back mountain more often than before."
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Xiao Yan tidied up the table. After which, he glanced at the middle-aged man who reeked of alcohol and was sleeping soundly on the grass. He helplessly shook his head, yawned and walked down the mountain.
Not long after the youth left the mountain peak, the black robed man who was sleeping soundly on the ground suddenly sat up. Looking in the direction the youth left, the corner of his mouth revealed a smile that was hard to detect.
"This child is a good child. However, even though he has lived two lives and has the memories of a transmigrator, he is still high-spirited and full of arrogance. If he does not undergo tempering, his future is destined to be limited."
"However, at this rate, Xiao Yan's cultivation will probably begin to regress soon. The day of extreme joy turning into sorrow should be coming soon!"
Muttering to himself, the black robed man stretched and once again lay on the grass with a blade of grass in his mouth. He had an expression of not caring about anything.
