"Shao Chen, Shao Ling."
Wutian nodded. He smiled and said, "Since you two are their children, didn't they tell you that there are no treasures in the ancestral land of the Dragon Village?"
Shao Chen said, "They did, but my little sister and I didn't believe them."
Wutian curiously asked, "Why?"
Shao Chen said, "Uncle, think about it. If the Asura King is so strong, how could there be no treasures in his ancestral land? I am sure that there are not only treasures, but many, many more. If I can obtain his treasures then I can also become an unrivalled character like him. "
Wutian smiled. "You two must have snuck out!"
"How do you know?"
The brother and sister looked at him with surprise.
Wutian lightly smiled. "It's simple. Your parents and the Asura King are good friends so they must know where the ruins of the Dragon Village are. If you obtained their permission then they would have told you where the ruins of the Dragon Village were. But since you don't know, it can be seen that you snuck out."
Shao Ling exclaimed, "Wow, Uncle, your analysis is on point."
Shao Chen nodded again and again. "That's right, that's right. For someone as smart as you, if you can cultivate then you will definitely become a powerhouse of the Hundred Dynasties realm. No, that's not right. You will definitely become a great character at the Divine Transformation realm."
The brother and sister's eyes shined with worship.
Wutian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Although his cultivation had been crippled, he could still dominate the entire Samsara Continent with just his soul force. However, these two little fellows actually said that they could become great characters at the Divine Transformation realm. He didn't know whether this was a compliment or a derogatory one.
Wutian waved his hand. "You two can leave. There are no treasures in the Dragon Village. If you want to become an unrivalled powerhouse then you will have to rely on your own efforts. If you place your hopes on treasures then no matter how great your talent is, it will be difficult for you to achieve anything."
"This …"
The brother and sister hesitated.
Shao Ling ran in front of Wutian and begged, "Uncle, please tell us. After we look around, if there really isn't anything then we will immediately go home. But if there is then we won't forget you."
"Are you trying to bribe me?"
Wutian found it funny. He knew how to win people's hearts at such a young age. Sure enough, the kind of parents would teach the kind of children.
Shao Ling stuck out her tongue and giggled. "I'm not trying to bribe you, Uncle. I just want to work with you to hunt for treasures."
Wutian smiled bitterly. "There are really no treasures here. Go back quickly. Don't worry about your parents."
"Hmph, ugly uncle, you're really too hateful." Shao Ling coldly snorted and pouted. She seemed to be very unhappy.
Shao Chen was also very unhappy. He looked at Wutian hatefully.
But suddenly, he noticed a small detail.
"There really aren't any treasures here … this place … could it be …"
Shao Chen's spirit was roused. He looked at Shao Ling and said in surprise, "Little sister, I already know where the Dragon Village Ruins are."
"Where?" Shao Ling asked.
"Right here!" Shao Chen said.
"Right here?" Shao Ling looked around, and her bright forehead wrinkled.
"Think carefully. Uncle said that there really aren't any treasures here. This' here 'is the key," Shao Chen said.
Shao Ling thought carefully and said excitedly, "That's right, that's right. This is the Dragon Village Ruins. Thank you for your advice, Uncle Ugly. When my brother and I find treasures, we'll definitely give you a few. Brother, let's go."
"Uncle Ugly, no, uncle, thank you."
The brother and sister expressed their gratitude and rushed into the forest, disappearing without a trace.
Wutian was stunned. After a while, he came back to his senses. A bitter smile immediately appeared on his face.
He really did not expect that he would let it slip.
But it did not matter. There were no treasures in the Dragon Village anyway. Even if the brother and sister turned this place upside down, they would not find anything.
He lowered his head and looked around. He turned and walked down the mountain.
On the way, he hunted a straw donkey.
When he returned to the courtyard, he began to marinate the donkey meat. After all, the weather had not completely turned cold. If the meat was left for too long, it would mold and smell.
And this straw donkey was about the size of a black bull. It was enough for him to eat for a year and a half.
The afternoon passed quickly.
Wutian hung the marinated donkey meat on the treetops in the backyard and took a hot bath. After changing into a clean set of clothes, he began to prepare dinner.
After dinner, he washed what needed to be washed and tidied up what needed to be tidied up. Then, he went to the balcony on the second floor and took out the Mysterious Sky Ice Coffin. While waiting for the sun to set, he chatted with the jade in the coffin.
"You know what? These ten years of life, others may say that it's very tiring and lonely, but I feel very fulfilled and free. With you by my side, I have never felt lonely. I really hope that we can continue to live like this. "
"It's just that I'm a little worried about the little guy. I'm worried about Han Tian and the others. I wonder how they are now?"
"Yi Yan, do you think that I'm very selfish?"
"I know that there are still many friends waiting for me, but I just want to stay out of it and live a stable and peaceful life. In fact, I also think that I'm very selfish, but I'm really tired of killing and scheming."
"Yi Yan, tell me, what should I do?"
Wutian's heart started to be in a mess again.
It might be related to the arrival of the divine aura and Gu Tian, or it might be that he actually hadn't truly let go of it in his heart.
The sun set in the west, and the sunset filled the sky.
He took out the Luoshen Zither and sat beside the ice coffin. His index finger gently plucked and played a melancholic melody.
Then, his ten fingers moved around the strings of the zither, creating a melodious movement.
In the beginning, the sound of the zither carried a sense of loss, sorrow, hesitation, and a myriad of other emotions. But gradually, he forgot all of this. The sorrow in the zither gradually disappeared as well. It returned to its former peace and tranquility, as tranquil as the surface of a lake.
"What a nice zither music."
"Uncle is ugly, but it's undeniable that his zither skills have reached the peak."
Shao Chen and his sister came down from the back of the mountain. When they were halfway up the mountain, they had already heard the zither music, but they didn't know who it came from.
When they came out of the courtyard and found that the person playing the zither was actually this ugly uncle, the two of them were extremely surprised.
But the two little ones didn't go to disturb him and listened quietly.
Gradually, they found that the irritation in their hearts dissipated bit by bit with the zither music.
Shao Chen said in a small voice, "Little Sister, I feel more and more that this uncle isn't simple."
Shao Ling said, "I think so too. When he first played the zither music, it carried sorrow and hesitation. He definitely has a story in his heart."
Shao Chen nodded. His gaze turned slightly. When he saw the ice coffin beside Wutian, a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes. He said, "Little Sister, look, there's an ice coffin beside him."
"It's true!" Shao Ling was extremely surprised and puzzled. "But why is there an ice coffin?"
Shao Chen said, "Let's go in and ask."
"I think we shouldn't. It's so scary." Shao Ling's expression was slightly ugly.
"We're great cultivators in the Channel Opening Stage. What are we afraid of? Let's go." Shao Chen pulled his sister and walked towards the wooden door of the fence.
"Big Brother, really don't. I'm scared." Shao Ling begged. Her expression became uglier and even paler.
"Aren't you usually very brave? Why are you so timid now? If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have brought you out. "Shao Chen said angrily.
"In the past, there were many people in the city. Of course, I wasn't afraid. But now, we're in the wilderness and there's an ice coffin. I'm a girl. How can I not be scared!" Shao Ling said timidly.
"Then are you going or not? If you're not going, you can wait for me here. But in this wilderness, I reckon there will be a lot of demons and ghosts. They like a little girl with tender skin like you the most." Shao Chen laughed mischievously.
"Ah!"
Shao Ling immediately screamed. She hugged Shao Chen's arm and looked around in horror.
This scream also woke Wutian up from his selfless state. He frowned slightly and pressed his hands on the zither strings. The zither music stopped abruptly.
Then, he put away the Luoshen Zither and the ice coffin. He stood up and looked outside the courtyard. He frowned and said, "What are you doing here?"
"Little sister, be quiet."
Shao Chen said in a low voice. He looked up at Wutian and scratched the back of his head. He smiled embarrassedly and said, "Uncle, it's late now. We're still children. We can't spend the night in the wilderness. Can you let us stay here for a night?"
Wutian looked at the two deeply. His eyebrows relaxed and he said with a smile, "Come in!"
The two of them were the children of Cang Zheng and Shao Feng. He couldn't refuse them.
"Thank you, uncle."
Shao Chen quickly thanked him. He pulled his timid little sister, pushed open the wooden fence, and walked toward the wooden building.
Wutian said, "Close the door."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Shao Chen hurriedly responded and turned to close the wooden door.
"Wow, it's so beautiful here. It's like a paradise."
After coming in, Shao Ling was immediately attracted by the flowers and plants in the courtyard. All women liked to be beautiful, let alone a child like her, who was still relatively simple.
Wutian held a wine jar in his left hand and a wooden wine cup in his right hand. He went downstairs and came to the flowerbed.
There was a stone table here, which he used to drink wine and admire the moon. There was a bonfire next to it, which was burning and illuminating the front yard as if it was daytime.
Wutian sat on the stone bench, put down the wine jar and wine cup, looked at the two little ones who were looking around curiously, shook his head, smiled, and said, "You can only rest here for one night. In addition, you are not allowed to destroy a blade of grass or a tree here."
"Absolutely not."
The two of them hurriedly responded.
Wutian withdrew his gaze and began to drink by himself.
Of course, he didn't dare to gulp like before. He only took a sip each time.
Shao Chen wandered around the yard and lost interest. He came to Wutian's side, leaned close to the wine jar, and took a deep breath. He couldn't help swallowing his saliva and then looked at Wutian eagerly.
Wutian asked, "What's wrong? Do you want to drink? "
Shao Chen nodded like he was pounding garlic.
Wutian said, "Go to the backyard and get a wine cup!"
"Uncle, it's not satisfying to use a wine cup."
Shao Chen smiled, picked up the wine jar and drank it down.
