The mountain was not high but big.
Therefore, the terrain was relatively flat and the slope was not big.
But because there were few people, or even no people at all, the rattan plants in the mountains were very vigorous, which added some obstacles to Fang Qiu's journey over the mountain.
Fortunately, Fang Qiu bought an agricultural sickle in advance.
Although he had no internal Qi, his physical strength was real. It was not too difficult to use the sickle to cut through the thorns along the way.
An hour and a half later, Fang Qiu finally climbed over the first mountain and came to the foot of the second mountain.
At this time.
It was already dark.
Taking out the prepared flashlight from the backpack, Fang Qiu continued to climb over the mountain.
The second mountain, the third mountain, the fourth mountain.
One mountain after another, Fang Qiu did not dare to stop.
After all, he had now reached the depths of the mountain forest and had no chance to rest. Once he stopped at a certain place, it was easy to attract the fierce beasts in the forest, and then it would be troublesome.
But.
Because of the lack of internal Qi, Fang Qiu's physical strength declined rapidly.
When he climbed over the sixth mountain and came to the seventh mountain, Fang Qiu could not hold on any longer. Looking at the time, it was already past three o 'clock in the morning. If he did not rest, it was easy to be absent-minded. If he encountered a fierce beast, he would not be able to resist at all.
There was no other way.
Fang Qiu could only use local materials, find some dry firewood nearby, choose a relatively flat place, light a fire, take out the prepared dry food in advance and eat a few mouthfuls. Then when the fire burned out, he quickly moved the red-hot charcoal around to form a circle, surrounding himself, and added some firewood on the charcoal around him, and then went to sleep peacefully.
Three hours later.
At about six o 'clock in the morning, when the sky was bright, Fang Qiu woke up from his lethargy.
Although it was only a short three hours, the three hours of rest had completely restored Fang Qiu's spirit. After all, his spirit was not damaged.
"Phew, there are two more mountains."
Standing up, Fang Qiu glanced around and found that the charcoal array set up last night was still warm. Immediately, he took out the mineral water he carried with him, poured out all the remaining heat of the charcoal, and then continued to move forward.
However.
Walking and walking.
"Swish, swish …"
Suddenly, there was a sound of running.
Fang Qiu immediately stopped and turned his head to look behind him.
He took a look.
Fang Qiu immediately found that a dense bush not far from where he slept was shaking slightly. Obviously, something had gotten into it.
Taking a closer look, Fang Qiu could clearly see that those bushes had very sharp barbs growing on them.
"F * ck, did we encounter a wild boar?"
Fang Qiu was shocked.
Last night, he had scattered the charcoal around because the beasts in the forest were afraid of fire. That was the only way he could sleep peacefully.
However, half a day had passed.
The fire had also been extinguished. What if they encountered a wild boar with rough skin and thick flesh?
Although his physical strength was very high and he could withstand the wild boar's collision attack, his internal organs were still seriously injured. If he was hit a few more times, wouldn't his injury get worse?
Zhang Xuan willed.
Without any hesitation, Fang Qiu immediately turned around and ran.
The only thing he could compete with the wild boar now was speed.
As expected.
"Pata, pata …"
Just as Fang Qiu ran out, a burst of crazy galloping suddenly came.
Fang Qiu looked back as he ran.
That was right.
A brown-haired wild boar with not too long teeth, a strong body, and a height of half a meter at the end of the month was madly running towards him.
Its driving speed was almost comparable to that of a bullfight.
"F * ck."
Fang Qiu cursed and broke into a run.
He felt a little lucky. Fortunately, he had taken precautions when he went to bed last night. Otherwise, he would have been turned upside down by this wild boar.
He ran all the way.
Anyway, Fang Qiu was fast enough to participate in the sports meeting and win the first place. Compared with the wild boar, he was a little weaker, but he could manage to maintain a certain distance.
It was so on the flat road. But when he went down the seventh mountain and rushed to the eighth mountain, because he had to climb the slope, Fang Qiu's speed suddenly slowed down a lot, but the wild boar's speed didn't reduce at all.
In this case.
The wild boar immediately shortened the distance a lot.
When it was about to hit him, Fang Qiu immediately dodged and began to keep swaying in the woods to make a detour.
Although it consumed more physical strength, at least he could keep a little distance.
But.
A beast was a beast after all.
In the wild boar's territory, Fang Qiu didn't let it run at all.
He finally ran to the top of the mountain. When Fang Qiu was about to hide in the tree, the wild boar fiercely roared and rushed at him.
Fang Qiu smiled bitterly.
Although it didn't pose a big threat to him, it seemed that he had to eat this wild boar's charge.
Fang Qiu stopped, turned around and stretched out his hands, trying to use his physical strength to fight against the wild boar.
Anyway, he was also a man who had practiced body strengthening.
However.
Just when he tried to face the wild boar head-on.
"Puff puff …"
The wild boar that was charging madly towards Fang Qiu suddenly stomped on all fours and stopped in a panic. Then, without even looking at Fang Qiu, it turned around and ran away with a yell.
From the looks of it, it was obvious that it was frightened by something.
Fang Qiu's heart tightened.
Could it be that an even more terrifying beast had appeared?
Was it a wolf pack?
He quickly turned his head and glanced around.
As a result.
As soon as he turned his head, Fang Qiu was stunned.
The person who appeared in front of him was an old man dressed in cotton clothes. His temples were white, and his hair was combed into a bun.
Wasn't this the person he had met in the deep mountains and wild forest?
The old man stood with his hands clasped behind his back.
There was a kind smile on his face. It seemed that although a few years had passed, the old man didn't grow old. He was still the same as before.
"Greetings, senior."
Fang Qiu immediately bowed to the old man.
"Come with me."
The old man nodded with a gentle smile, then turned around, carrying a self-made rattan basket on his back, like an ordinary old man, slowly walking forward.
Fang Qiu followed closely behind.
Seeing the old man again, Fang Qiu could see very clearly that he was the same as before, without the slightest existence of internal Qi or the slightest energy aura.
Although Fang Qiu had no internal Qi now, his realm was not destroyed, so he still looked at people the same as when he was in his peak state.
But now it seemed.
Fang Qiu still couldn't see through the old man in front of him. He still couldn't see the depth of the old man.
The more this was so, the more confident he was about this trip.
Under the old man's lead.
Fang Qiu walked for a long time before he finally came to the small cabin in the deep mountain.
"Just in time."
The old man fetched a ladle of water, took out some wild vegetables from the basket, and said, "I picked some wild vegetables along the way. Although there is no rice to eat, it's never wrong to eat more wild vegetables."
As he spoke, he washed the wild vegetables, then walked into the room, put the wild vegetables in the pot hanging over the fire in the middle of the room, and began to cook.
Fang Qiu didn't rush to say anything, but went to chop firewood and fetch water for the old man.
When the firewood was chopped and the water was filled, the old man's vegetables were also cooked.
"Come on, eat."
The old man shouted, took out two bamboo tubes, and then filled a tube with wild vegetables with self-made chopsticks and wooden spoon for Fang Qiu.
Fang Qiu didn't stand on ceremony. He took it and began to eat.
Soon, not even a drop of soup was left.
After washing the dishes.
Fang Qiu sat with the old man.
"Senior, this time I specially came to ask for your advice."
Fang Qiu said to the old man respectfully.
"Hmm."
The old man nodded gently and said, "It seems that there is something wrong with your body, different from the first time I saw you."
Fang Qiu's whole body shook when he heard that.
There is hope!
He immediately cupped his hands and began to talk.
"Things, I have to start from Wulin."
In this deep mountain forest, Fang Qiu was completely unguarded. In a calm tone, he began to talk about Wulin and his own experience.
The old man listened all the time, with a smile on his face, without interrupting or speaking.
Fang Qiu kept talking like this.
He told them everything that he had done, everything that he had thought, and everything that others did not know.
This talk lasted for a full hour.
He talked until the present.
He talked about the current situation of his body.
"Great kindness cherishes the world, lives for the world, and also dies for the world."
After listening to Fang Qiu's story, the old man smiled and praised, saying, "Without destruction, there can be no construction. Your experience may not be a bad thing for you."
"Senior, do you have a solution?"
Fang Qiu asked for advice.
"Come on."
The old man reached out to feel Fang Qiu's pulse.
However, at the moment when the old man's fingers touched Fang Qiu's wrist.
Fang Qiu suddenly froze.
At this moment, Fang Qiu actually very clearly felt that the old man in front of him had all the meridians of his body opened.
What was more frightening was.
Fang Qiu actually saw the old man's long road of 108,000 miles.
On that long road of 108,000 li, the old man had actually walked a hundred thousand li, and he was still walking. His speed was extremely fast!
Sensing this scene.
Fang Qiu was immediately shocked!
"Good."
Just when Fang Qiu was shocked, the old man loosened the finger that was feeling Fang Qiu's pulse and said with a smile, "Martial Root is not broken."
"Senior."
Fang Qiu immediately asked, "Just now, I clearly felt that your strength is very strong, even infinitely close to the Realm of Three Flowers at One's Prominence. Why can't I see or feel the slightest internal Qi in your body?"
"Haha."
The old man suddenly laughed and said, "I have never practiced martial arts."
"What?"
Fang Qiu was instantly shocked.
It was as if there was something ruthlessly hammering on his heart, shaking his soul.
"Three Flowers at One's Prominence can be achieved regardless of whether you practice martial arts or not. You don't have to practice martial arts."
The old man opened his mouth and said, "This is what ordinary people call cultivation. Practicing martial arts is also a kind of cultivation, but it is not cultivation. There are thousands of cultivation paths, and I am just a primary school student on the Great Way of Cultivation. Until today, I have not even entered the door. What I said about flowers is also nonsense."
Fang Qiu, who was already in shock, was even more shocked when he heard this.
A person who was almost at the Realm of Three Flowers at One's Prominence had not even entered the door of cultivation?
Then.
What on earth was cultivation?
Fang Qiu did not dare to think too much. He knew that he could not pursue those things because he still had fetters and many things to protect.
"Senior."
Fang Qiu did not hesitate. He immediately got up and bowed 90 degrees to the old man, asking for advice, "Senior, please tell me how I should recover."
