Wutian's cultivation was indeed crippled, but his soul power was still there. It was still very easy for him to hunt the wild beasts in the back mountain.
However, when he walked into the back mountain, the memories sealed in the depths of his soul surfaced like a tide in his mind!
He remembered that this was the hunting ground of the villagers.
He still remembered that when he was young, he often sneaked here to play with Longhu.
Of course, at that time, they only dared to stay at the foot of the mountain and rarely went up the mountain.
At that time, he and Longhu were still naive children and had not started the path of cultivation. However, that time was really happy.
It was a pity that he could never return to the past. Even if he was also an ordinary person now, when he stepped into this place again, he did not have the same feeling as before.
Some things could be kept, but some things were gone. No matter how you tried to keep them, they would not stop.
Gradually, he walked to the top of the mountain.
This was the place where he met the little guy. It was also here that he accidentally picked up the Absolute Yin Token and was thrown down the cliff by the Dragon River. It could be said that this place was the turning point of his life.
Now that he was back and standing here again, he also had no cultivation. However, looking at the scenery around him and breathing in the air here, he felt that it was very strange.
"The sea has turned into mulberry fields. Things remain the same, but people have changed. I can't go back, I can't go back at all."
He sighed deeply, turned around and walked down the mountain.
His speed was not fast, but it was very stable. Although he could not find the same feeling as before, his heart was unprecedentedly steady.
Before the sky completely darkened, he dragged a wild boar and a bundle of firewood back to the front of the wooden house.
At this time, it was the turn of autumn and winter, and the night was a little cold.
In front of the wooden house, Wutian took out two daggers. With a little force, sparks flew and soon the firewood was ignited, a bonfire was burning.
Then, he removed one of the wild boar's thighs, peeled off the fur, and slowly roasted it over the bonfire.
Originally, he wanted to wash it before roasting it, but now that it was late, he definitely could not find a water source in a short period of time. He would make do with it and think about it tomorrow.
As for the seasoning for the roasted pig thigh, it was even easier for him. After all, people like him who grew up in a small village knew much more than those who grew up with a silver spoon in their mouths.
After searching around the fire for a while, he found a few strands of wild grass. These wild grass were used for seasoning.
He used the dagger as a kitchen knife on the spot and cut up a few strands of wild grass. When the pig thigh was seventy percent cooked, he sprinkled the wild grass on it. Not long after, the aroma of meat wafted out.
When Wutian smelled the fragrance, his mouth and tongue began to salivate, and the hunger in his stomach became extremely intense.
He cut off a piece of meat and sniffed it. Immediately, his appetite was aroused. He put it in his mouth and chewed with relish.
"It would be even better if there was wine at this time."
Wutian licked his lips and sat by the fire pit alone, enjoying his first dinner here. He seemed a little lonely.
As for wine, there was definitely no way to find it now.
It was a pity that the two daggers were originally divine weapons, but now they were used to cut vegetables and meat, making them greasy and dirty. If this matter were to spread out, it would definitely set off a huge storm in the five continents.
The bright bonfire and the tempting fragrance added a lot of vitality to this place.
The next morning, before dawn, Wutian got up and washed up. Then, he went to the balcony on the second floor and took out the Mysterious Heaven Ice Coffin. He accompanied his lover and waited for the sunrise.
The sunset was beautiful, but the morning sun was even more enchanting.
The sunlight shone brightly, illuminating the mountains and rivers. Seeing the sun rise little by little, Wutian's agitation and sadness in his heart also dissipated little by little.
The moment the morning sun rose, all things in the world also woke up and began a new day.
After Wutian put the Mysterious Heaven Ice Coffin into the Battle Spirit Ring, he also began to get busy.
On the first day, he removed all the weeds and bushes around the wooden building one by one. When the sun set, not a single weed could be found in the surrounding area of 300 meters. However, this day's labor had really exhausted him to the point of being unbearably exhausted, both physically and mentally.
However, he did not go back on his words. After accompanying his lover to watch the sunset, he had dinner and then went into the house to rest.
The next day, he still woke up early. After watching the sunrise, he began to dig a well. Ordinary people could not do without water.
He chose the location of the well behind the wooden building. He planned to build a backyard here. It would be more convenient to place the well here.
Originally, he could have used his divine power to dig a well, but he didn't. He held a dagger in his hand and dug bit by bit, resting when he was tired, and digging again when he was well rested. It took him a total of nine days to dig a well that was ten meters deep. Clear underground water filled the air, and there was a cool and sweet taste in it.
In fact, it was not the water that was sweet. It was his heart that was sweet.
After all, this was the result of his hard work.
As the saying goes, a drop of sweat is ten thousand grains of rice. How could the result of his own labor not be sweet?
At the same time, although these days were tiring, his heart was calmer and calmer. He gradually put down his past grievances.
On the eleventh day, he entered the back mountain to cut wood and build a fence.
Wasn't it easy to cut wood with divine weapons? In one morning, fifty logs were piled up in front of his building. Cutting wood was indeed easy, but carrying it back from the back mountain was not an easy task.
When he carried the last log back to the wooden building, he was immediately weak. He sprawled on the ground. After an hour, he finally caught his breath.
It was very tiring and bitter, but he did not care. Or rather, he was used to such a life.
In the afternoon, he chose to rest. After all, he was going to live here in the future. He was not in a hurry to rest.
On the twelfth day, he cut the logs into pieces of wood of different widths.
On the thirteenth day, he began to build a fence. For the current him, this was also a difficult project. Because every piece of wood had to be "inserted" deep into the ground. Only then would it be strong and withstand the wind and rain.
His current strength was not even comparable to that of a mortal hunter. He was about the same as an ordinary person. One could imagine how difficult it was.
After two days, he was finally finished.
The fence was a meter high. The pieces of wood were connected to each other. They surrounded the wooden building, forming a small courtyard about a hundred feet wide.
Walking through the fence and looking at the courtyard that he had built, Wutian felt unprecedentedly fulfilled. His heart became calmer and calmer, as if he had integrated into the life of a mortal.
After building the fence, Wutian rested for half a month. Because he was too tired, not only was he mentally exhausted, but his body was also extremely sore.
However, during this half a month, he did not really idle. He found some easy work to do. For example, he went to the back mountain to look for pleasing wildflowers and small trees. When he saw something that he was satisfied with, he would dig it out and plant it in the small courtyard.
Moreover, he specially cultivated a piece of land in the courtyard and planted some edible wild vegetables and wild herbs for seasoning. After all, he did not have to eat meat every day!
Unknowingly, he had lived here for a month.
He had completely integrated into the environment and life here.
His heart had also truly settled down.
Now, he didn't want to think about anything and just lived each day peacefully.
In the morning and evening, he accompanied his lover to watch the sunrise and sunset.
During the day, he was busy taking care of the courtyard.
At night, there was the moon. He would accompany his lover to admire the moon and chat with her. Although she could not hear, the smile on his face was very bright and his heart was very happy.
Moreover, he would take out the Luoshen Zithern and try to play a piece. As time passed, his technique became more and more proficient. The music that he played, although it could not be considered the sound of nature, was not as bad as before.
When there was no moon, he sat alone on the balcony and looked at the endless night sky. When he was tired, he went into the house to rest. Although it was peaceful, his heart was very stable.
His body had almost recovered. Wutian began to busy himself again.
The courtyard could not always be covered in mud. Because once it rained, mud would be all over the house when he came back from outside.
Therefore, he had to go to the back mountain to mine stone.
It was the same as logging. With the help of the Divine Weapon, mining was very simple. However, carrying the stone back almost cost him his old life. From day to night, his sweat did not dry.
It took him a full two months to completely tidy up the courtyard.
The ground of the courtyard was neatly inlaid with bright and clean stone slabs.
At the edge of the courtyard, there were evergreen trees that were only half the height of a person. They swayed in the wind and were full of vitality.
On the left and right sides of the wooden building were vegetable gardens. They were all planted with wild vegetables. Now, they were basically Wutian's staple food for three meals a day.
Behind the wooden building was also a vegetable garden. However, the plants planted were all seasoned wild vegetables. The well was in the center of the vegetable garden.
As for the front of the wooden building, there was a flower garden. There were all kinds of wild flowers. Some were budding, some were wantonly in full bloom, and some were wilting. The fragrance of the flowers added a lot of color to the small courtyard.
Between the flower garden and the vegetable garden, there were two winding paths.
At this moment, Wutian was building the wooden gate of the fence. He was almost done.
Although he was the only one living here and there were no villages nearby, the wooden gate of the fence was still necessary. Otherwise, it would look a little awkward.
After an hour, the wooden gate was finally completed. Wutian tried to open and close it a few times. Feeling that it was not bad, he closed the wooden gate. He picked up the dagger on the ground and turned to look at the flower garden in front of him. Looking at the vegetable garden on the left and right sides, the most simple smile climbed on his face.
He did not care about the mud and sweat all over his body. He walked around the courtyard. Finally, he stood on the long path between the flower garden. He could not help but feel a sense of accomplishment.
In the past, he only needed to wave his hand to create a magnificent palace. However, he had never felt this way.
This was the difference between an ordinary person and a cultivator.
Ordinary people were easily satisfied. As long as they had a home and a worry-free life, it was enough.
However, cultivators wanted to fight for fame and fortune. The desire in their heart would increase as their strength increased. It would become more and more uncontrollable and could never be satisfied.
After two months of settling down, Wutian was now a real ordinary person.
He forgot his worries, forgot his hatred, forgot his fame and fortune, forgot everything in the past. He had completely integrated into the life here. His body and mind returned to their original state. He had never felt so peaceful before.
He took out the Profound Heaven Ice Coffin and looked tenderly at the jade person in the coffin. He smiled and said, "I've always wanted a home. A simple and happy home. Now, I finally have it. From now on, this will be our home together. Let me accompany you and live happily and without worries."
