"Village Chief Grandpa, you're back." The little girl turned her head and immediately skipped over to pull the sleeves of the person who came.
Ye Kong turned around and saw that the person who came was an old man dressed in very simple hemp clothes. Just like the little girl, his skin was tanned and the wrinkles on his face looked like they were carved by knives and hatchets. This was a very ordinary old fisherman.
Ye Kong was happy at first, but when he saw the old man's appearance, he was a little disappointed. This person didn't look like a cultivator, and he didn't look like an expert who knew about the past and present lives.
He used the Heaven's Eye Technique to look again. Ye Kong's heart turned cold. This was a very ordinary mortal old man with no cultivation at all.
The old man touched the little girl's head lovingly, then walked over and said with a smile, "Friend from the outside, your words are well said. In the boundless world, all living things compete for freedom. But being born in this world, there is no freedom. There is a sea in the sea, and there is a sky beyond the sky. In the dark, there are people who rule, so how can there be freedom? "
Ye Kong was stunned. The old man's knowledge was not the knowledge of mortals. "There is a sea in the sea, and there is a sky beyond the sky." How could an ordinary person know?
Ye Kong said again, "At least our hearts can be free."
The old man shook his head, "Even if your heart is free, it is at most you, but how can you say that all living things are free?"
"If you want to talk about freedom, you have to stand above the nine heavens and look down on the entire earth. Only then will you have true freedom, and only then can you give freedom to all living things!" As the old man spoke, his eyes immediately sharpened, as if there was suddenly a bright light shining in his dim yellow eyes, and it was as sharp as a knife's edge.
Ye Kong immediately understood that he had met an expert. This old man was very likely the person he was looking for.
"Senior's words make sense. Junior Li Heizi of Cloud Talisman Sect has learned." Ye Kong quickly bowed and said.
The old man smiled, "I'm not senior, I'm just a few years older than you." After the old man finished speaking, he pulled the little girl to sit on a rock by the sea and said, "Little friend, do you know what sea beast gave birth to this beast egg?"
Ye Kong shook his head, "I don't know, may I ask senior."
"This egg was laid by a low-tier sea beast, the Three-eyed Turtle. This Three-eyed Turtle loved to eat the eggs of other beasts, especially the eggs of Reef Gulls. The reef gulls lay their eggs at the very top of the rocks, but they still can't stop the three-eyed turtles. Their eggs are always stolen by the three-eyed turtles. "
"Therefore, when the reef gull saw the Three-eyed Turtle's egg, it didn't hesitate to dive to the bottom of the sea and snatch the Three-eyed Turtle's egg, throwing it on the beach so that it couldn't hatch."
Ye Kong said, "You do the first, I do the fifteenth. This reef gull has quite the character. "
The old village chief also smiled and continued, "I was thinking, if this three-eyed turtle didn't eat the reef gull's eggs, then wouldn't everyone be able to coexist peacefully and raise their children?"
Ye Kong shook his head and said, "Wanting to eat better food, wanting to live a better life, this is the nature of all living things. Plus, the Three-eyed Turtle is not intelligent, how could it know so much? There's a saying in my hometown, 'You'll have to pay for what you've done sooner or later.' But, even if you know that you'll have to pay for what you've done, how many people won't come out to make a living because of this? "
"You'll have to pay for what you've done sooner or later …" The old village chief seemed to be deep in thought after hearing this and kept nodding his head. After a while, he turned his head and said, "Little friend, you …"
Ye Kong said, "I'm Li Heizi of Cloud Talisman Sect, Senior can call me Little Li."
But the old man still smiled and called out again, "Little friend."
Ye Kong's heart trembled. F * ck his ancestors, why am I becoming more and more useless. Facing a mortal, I actually have to hide my head and cover my face. What's there to worry about?
"Senior, Ye Kong of Nan Du greets Senior." Ye Kong suddenly cupped his fists and said.
Only then did the old man say with a smile, "Spiritual Master Ye, to tell you the truth, this old man is the Wu Wuzhi you're looking for. This old man hasn't answered anyone's question for fifty years. Spiritual Master Ye answered the question this old man has been thinking about for a long time with one sentence today, so this old man will give you a chance to ask a question. "
A person who knows everything, letting you ask a question, how great of a good thing is that. Then hurry up and ask, such as when to get rich, when to marry a beautiful wife …
However, Ye Kong shook his head and said, "Senior Wu, this time I'm here to accompany a friend from Hehuan Sect. I want to ask where I can find the Spirit Condensation Jade Essence."
"You're quite enthusiastic." Wu Wuzhi smiled and said, "Alright, one question is also asking, two questions are also asking. Come to the village's ancestral hall to find me tonight."
Ye Kong returned to the little girl's house and told the news to Yue Minghui. This kid heard that the old man didn't refuse at all and didn't seem to be in a difficult position, so he most likely knew the location of the Spirit Condensation Jade Essence. So he quickly hid in his room in joy and released the Snow Soul Pearl, telling this good news to Wei Yang.
At night, after dinner, more than twenty families all extinguished their lights. Only then did Ye Kong and Yue Minghui go out to the ancestral hall.
Actually, the ancestral hall was just a small wooden house, similar to the other houses in the village. At this moment, only this house was lit up.
The night sky was boundless, and the wind was strong but there was no moon. Their ears were filled with the eternal sound of waves. It was pitch-black everywhere, and only a little light in the room could bring infinite warmth and yearning, illuminating the road ahead and illuminating the future.
"Creak." Ye Kong and Yue Minghui pushed open the wooden door and saw Wu Wuzhi sitting in the middle of the hall with his eyes closed, waiting for the two of them.
"You ask first." Ye Kong and Yue Minghui modestly declined, then walked out and closed the door.
This Spirit Condensation Jade Essence was a rare treasure. Although Ye Kong didn't covet it, it was better not to ask about this kind of thing. If Yue Minghui didn't find it, he might think that he leaked the news. So, it was better not to ask.
Standing outside the small house. Ye Kong felt his heart, which had been calm for a long time, suddenly tremble violently.
Go back! This isn't my world! I want to go back to my world!
Although there were fights in that world, although it was cruel … but, it was many times better than this unlucky Azure Star.
Watching TV, eating hamburgers, bringing a few followers to collect protection fees, teasing a little girl … Yes, this is my life, this is the life of me, Ye Kong. Without so many fights, without so much killing, a peaceful and comfortable life, how wonderful!
So, I want to go back!
In the past, Ye Kong had no hope of returning to Earth, so he didn't think about this problem. But now that the opportunity was right in front of him, the desire to return to Earth, suddenly became extremely strong! Unable to resist, unable to get rid of, extremely strong!
It had been almost ten years since he came to Cang Nan Continent, but Ye Kong still couldn't see himself as someone from Cang Nan Continent. He didn't have a sense of belonging, he always felt that he was an earthling, a gangster from Earth!
I really want to go back!
So, when Yue Minghui walked out of the room with a satisfied smile. Ye Kong couldn't wait to enter the small house.
"Senior Wu, I think you should know that I came from another place … What I want to ask is, where can I find the way back to my hometown!"
