The night in the small village was exceptionally tranquil. The moon shone brightly outside the window, and the fragrance of grass mixed with the smell of the earth was carried by the wind. Coupled with the pleasant chirping of the insects, the unadorned but realistic night in the village was exceptionally peaceful.
His parents had already fallen asleep. This might be the night they had slept the most soundly in the past eight years. Xiao Chen had a lot of feelings in his heart. What he felt the most was that he had let his parents down. They hadn't fulfilled their filial duties for eight years and wandered around in another world. How much bitterness did they let the two of them suffer?
Looking at their white hair, Xiao Chen felt sorrowful in his heart. Time was the most merciless, no one could stop it. How much time did his aged parents have left?
Currently, Xiao Chen was in the Levitation Realm. He was a true demigod. If nothing unexpected happened, even if he was not invincible in the Mortal Realm, he would be close to that. He gently pushed open the door and silently entered his parents' room. Two gentle rays of light shot out from his fingers, making his parents fall into a deeper sleep.
Xiao Chen sat on the edge of the bed. Both of his hands moved unceasingly, forcing out strands of life essence from his body. The milky white radiance was like a ripple of water, gentle and holy. It was directed into his parents' body by Xiao Chen. After that, he continuously patted the acupoints on his parents' body, allowing the life essence to circulate. The life essence flowed through the acupoints and into their flesh and bones, spreading evenly throughout their entire body and thoroughly fusing with their bodies.
After doing all this, Xiao Chen gently closed the door and left. When he returned to his own room, he was still unable to fall asleep. In the end, he pushed the door open and gently flew up to the roof, looking at the small village under the moonlight. Eight years had passed, but there was not the slightest change in the village. It was still as simple as before.
Xiao Chen had a surreal feeling. I came back just like that? The World of Immortals … Everything in the past was like a dream!
Could he forget that dream?
Eight years of dreams …
How could he forget?
How could he forget?
There was one thing in particular. This made him very worried. In front of the Great Spatial Rift. Was Qing Qing also sucked into the Spatial Sea Eye? He didn't know …
Xiao Chen walked in the void. He looked around the village. Listening to the chirping of the night insects.
After midnight. He was like a ghost. Wandering alone under the moonlit night. Roaming the nearby mountains. Finally, it soared into the sky. They flew upstream.
On the bank of the Yellow River, a dozen miles away. It was a huge and majestic platform. It covered an area of several li. It's not finished yet. It was already two hundred meters tall. It exuded a great pressure. Based on his intuition, Xiao Chen knew that the platform was not simple.
It wasn't just a grand building that was a waste of money and manpower. It was probably an incomparably terrifying altar. There were probably many arrays carved inside.
Sure enough, something was about to happen in the human world. Otherwise, how could this happen? Xiao Chen circled around the huge platform once. Then, he continued to fly through the air. Going upstream along the Yellow River.
Almost every few hundred miles, there would be a huge civil engineering project, with towering platforms and magnificent palaces. The Orthodoxy of the Nine Prefectures was truly extravagant to have such a huge bridge that connected directly to the sky. Such a large-scale construction project would ultimately require the entire world's strength. And the construction of the so-called Ancestral Dragon Platform and the Death Bridge to Heaven would definitely have a great plan.
Xiao Chen didn't continue to trace back to the upstream because the sky was about to brighten. He used the Eightfold Extreme Speed to return home.
Early in the morning, he once again enjoyed the breakfast made by his mother. Although it was very simple, it filled his mouth with a fragrance that surpassed all the delicacies in the world.
And at this moment, there was already a shout coming from outside, urging everyone in the village to go on their way. Every morning, there would be people going to each village to take attendance. If there was anyone who was not on time, they would definitely be punished.
His parents looked at him helplessly and said, "You hide at home, don't let anyone see you."
The two elders were about to push open the door and go out.
"I will go with you guys. Let's go to the upstream of the Yellow River to take a look. At the latest tomorrow, we will completely solve the problem of the villagers. "
"No way!"
Xiao Chen's mother stopped him. They had just reunited, how could there be another incident? Although Xiao Chen didn't say where he had been these years, the two elders could clearly feel that he was different. Their gaze seemed to have become even sharper, afraid that his impulsiveness would cause a disaster.
"Don't worry, I know the severity."
Xiao Chen smiled and comforted the two elders.
In the end. The family walked out together. The reason why the two elders agreed to let him go was because they were afraid that someone would tell them that there was still a strong worker at home. They were afraid that it would bring harm to Xiao Chen.
At the entrance of the village, all the villagers had already gathered and were waiting to set off. A ruffian glared at Xiao Chen impatiently and said, "Old man Xiao, are you guys tired of living? You actually dilly-dally and arrived half an hour late. If you want to die, I will throw you into the Yellow River today! "
The ruffian was a ruffian from the nearby village. He was in charge of this village, so he would come every day to urge and take attendance. He glared at Xiao Chen and wanted to whip him a few times with his whip.
Xiao Chen's eyes immediately widened and two cold glints shot out. The power of a demigod's divine sense was simply unimaginable for ordinary people. A terrifying pressure directly attacked the ruffian's heart. It made his soul tremble immediately. With a "plop" sound, he softly fell to the ground.
Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze and didn't even look at him. He brought his parents and walked over. The villagers clicked their tongues in wonder.
The ruffian basically didn't know why it was like this. He jumped up in anger and shouted, "You … who are you? How come I have never seen you before? "
Xiao Chen turned his head around and glared at him coldly. This time, the ruffian truly felt that the person in front of him was too terrifying. That pair of eyes seemed to have a terrifying power that heavily collided with his soul. At that time, he already felt that he couldn't take it anymore. His legs subconsciously went soft and he knelt on the ground.
The surrounding villagers were all incomparably amazed. The Orthodoxy had recruited a lot of ruffians to manage the nearby villagers. These people were the most hateful on normal days. They were lawless and bullied their neighbors. Today, they were actually kneeling in front of Xiao Chen like a mouse that had seen a cat. It was really a strange thing.
Why didn't Xiao Chen make a move? How did he make this little ruffian so obedient?
Those friends that grew up with Xiao Chen were incomparably happy as they discussed spiritedly.
"Although Chen Zi has left home for many years, his power is still there. Back then, with just a glare from him, all the ruffians in the surrounding villages had to be obedient for ten days to half a month. Although this little bastard was still young at that time, he definitely still remembers Chen Zi."
How could these people know that the little ruffian had been tortured by his Divine Sense?
The ruffian crawled up while trembling with fear. He didn't say anything else and walked away with his tail between his legs. He knew that the person in front of him was terrifying. They couldn't afford to offend him at all.
The group walked for more than ten miles and arrived near the giant platform upstream.
Although the sun had just risen, the work here was already in full swing. 150,000 slaves had been chased out before dawn. Compared to them, the villagers nearby were considered lucky.
It could be said that the Orthodoxy was a waste of manpower and money. When Xiao Chen saw the slaves with their upper bodies covered in sweat, he felt sorrowful for these people and sighed.
When the little ruffian arrived, he ran away with a 'swish' sound. He quickly arrived in front of a person wearing a military uniform and said, "Big Brother, someone insulted me … Throw him into the Yellow River to vent my anger!"
Although that person was wearing a soldier's uniform, it was difficult to conceal his ruffian aura. He said viciously, "Now. Who dares to provoke my brother? Courting death! Which unruly peasant? "
"That bastard is called Lil Chen. He is very evil. Big Brother, I think he is not easy to deal with. Do you want to find more brothers? "
"Lil Chen?"
The ruffian wearing a military uniform grabbed his little brother's collar and asked hurriedly, "Could it be that Old Man Xiao's son has returned?"
"He … He is with Old Man Xiao. Look … They are over there!"
The little ruffian was a little afraid of his big brother's current expression. He hurriedly pointed to a certain place on the riverbank.
"It's him, he really came back."
The big ruffian's heart trembled.
"Big Brother, you recognize him. Quickly go and take care of him. Vent my anger. You must drown him alive."
"Drown your ass!"
The big ruffian ruthlessly slapped the little ruffian's face and cursed, "Do you know who he is? You actually dared to cause trouble for me. "
He felt that his anger had not been vented. He ruthlessly kicked the little ruffian again.
The little ruffian grimaced in pain, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Just at this time, Xiao Chen looked over. The big ruffian braced himself and smiled in that direction. After that, he pulled the little ruffian and walked over. As they walked, he said, "You only know how to cause trouble for me. Do you know who he is?"
"How the f * ck would I know?"
The little ruffian was very depressed. He retorted in a bad mood.
"F * ck your wife!"
The big ruffian consecutively slapped the little ruffian three times, making him dizzy and disoriented. He said, "Do you know who is the most ruthless landlord in our district headquarters? It's him. Back then, with just a glare, all the ruffians and ruffians on the surface didn't even dare to breathe loudly. Why the f * ck are you provoking him? Are you looking for death? Are you tired of living? When he was thirteen or fourteen years old, he already dared to … "
The big ruffian suddenly stopped talking because he was already not far away from Xiao Chen. He kicked his younger brother over and said with an apologetic smile, "Brother Xiao Chen, you are back. This brother of mine is not sensible. You are a magnanimous person … Don't lower yourself to his level. "
Xiao Chen felt very helpless. Seeing that the ruffian from back then had become a supervisor, he knew that this national religion was not a good thing. Using this kind of evil force to suppress the nearby villagers, it was easy to imagine that they were definitely not good people.
"You are the big baldy from the neighboring village, right?"
"Yes, it's me. After not seeing you for so many years, the brothers in the surrounding villages all miss you very much."
"Miss me? You must be hoping that I won't come back for the rest of my life! "
Back then, Xiao Chen was young and hot-blooded. When he was in his teens, he once threw the ten biggest bullies into the Yellow River to feed the fishes in one night. Normally, he could scare the ordinary ruffians with just a glare.
"Not at all, not at all …"
The big ruffian denied it while kicking his younger brother who was lying on the ground. The little ruffian grimaced in pain as tears and snot flowed down his face. He cursed in his heart, "Brother, I know that the ancestor of the ruffians has returned, okay? Can you f * cking stop kicking me? Even if you are f * cking putting on an act, don't be so real. Ouch, it hurts! "
It was unknown how the news spread, but many supervisors ran over to see Xiao Chen. These were all the ruffians from back then, but now, they had become the supervisors of the government and the claws of the national religion.
This made Xiao Chen quite speechless. He had just become the leader of the ruffians. A large group of ruffians and bullies had gathered around him. He swore that he had never been in this line of work before. It was all because he was young and impetuous in the past.
The old and young villagers of Xiao Chen's village were all dumbstruck. Lil Chen … This made Xiao Chen unable to explain himself.
Finally, those friends who had grown up with him knew some insider information and explained it clearly in front of the villagers.
The power was still there … … but Xiao Chen was quite unhappy. Why did they make him seem like the ancestor of the ruffians? Looking at these people in front of him, he said in a deep voice, "I heard that our village's Dazhuang was beaten to death by the supervisor?"
This group of ruffians and bullies immediately patted their chest and said, "Although we are not good people, we are not such bastards. We definitely did not force the people of our village to death. Dazhuang was beaten to death by the guy called White-Eyed Wolf from the neighboring county. We actually wanted to stop him, but the White-Eyed Wolf was too powerful, no one dared to provoke him. "
"Then how did Little Han and Little Hai from our village die? There were also more than ten villagers who died mysteriously."
The three names mentioned were all Xiao Chen's childhood friends. He didn't expect to hear their grievous news when he came back this time.
"That was also done by the supervisor from the neighboring county. It can't be helped, they are too powerful, they often bully and force the people from the neighboring county. "
Xiao Chen was silent for a while, then he said, "Let me ask you guys, is there any way to exempt my parents and friends from hard labor?"
"Leave it to us, uncle and auntie don't need to come anymore."
One by one, the ruffians patted their chest and guaranteed. "I am talking about our entire village."
"This … … is really making things difficult for us. It's fine if it's one or two people, but it's an entire village … … where do we have that much authority? We are going to jump into the Yellow River together tomorrow. Unless … … "
"Unless what?"
Xiao Chen coldly swept his gaze over this group of ruffians and bullies.
"Go and make some arrangements, it's not like there are no exceptions, some villages are exempted from hard labor."
"Oh."
Xiao Chen nodded his head. He waved his hand to make these ruffians withdraw.
After the ruffians and bullies dispersed, the villagers in the vicinity were dumbstruck. They mistakenly thought that they had just held a hoodlum meeting. They looked at Xiao Chen, the ancestor of the ruffians, with a strange gaze.
The ruffian who was beaten up by his big brother was extremely angry, he couldn't help but complain, "Big brother, you are too afraid, what's the use even if he is powerful? Now is not the same as before, we can look for the higher-ups to take care of him! "
When the big ruffian heard these words, he couldn't help but get angry, he gave the ruffian a backhand slap. "Clang! Clang!" He kicked the ruffian four more times and cursed, "You better scram as far as you can, you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Didn't you see that all the ruffians came to see him just now? Unless you can find a backer who knows how to play with flying swords, you better stay here obediently. Otherwise, I will personally kick your mother down the Yellow River. "
Just at this time, someone said in a low voice, "The ingrates from the neighboring county are here."
That group of ruffians walked over while cursing. From time to time, they would use the whip in their hands to ruthlessly whip the nearby villagers who were doing hard labor.
But just at this time, something that made everyone dumbfounded happened. The leader of the ingrates acted as if he was possessed, he suddenly plunged into the Yellow River and disappeared with a splash. Something even more sinister had yet to happen. The ruffians and ruffians behind him all jumped into the raging waves of the Yellow River one after another as if they were possessed. A whirlpool flashed in the air. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace.
In front of everyone … no one pushed them. No one threatened them. The ruffians and ruffians from the neighboring county all jumped into the river together. This immediately caused a sensation. All the villagers and slaves were clapping their hands and cheering.
And Xiao Chen, the ruffian from the district headquarters, was sucking in a breath of cold air. His heart was trembling non-stop.
The ruffian who was beaten cried out involuntarily, "It's him … it must be him … he is the devil!"
As a result, the big ruffian slapped the latter part of his words back.
"Shut the f * ck up! Now you know fear? This kind of thing happened more than ten years ago. It's not the first time, the second time, the third time … "
Just at this time, Xiao Chen's voice suddenly rang out from behind them, "In the past, I was getting rid of the tyrants and bringing peace to the people. Now … I am just watching the show. I don't know anything. Speaking carelessly will kill people. "
The ruffian nodded his head mechanically. He almost peed in his pants.
"Yes, yes, yes …"
The big ruffian also nodded his head vigorously.
Xiao Chen looked at the big ruffian and said, "Baldy, you have good eyesight. Do a good job and don't bully your neighbors anymore."
"Alright, alright!"
Xiao Chen's parents were sent back home. If they didn't leave, the group of ruffians would have cried. They would have knelt down and kowtowed.
As for the people in Xiao Chen's village, although they still stayed at the bank of the Yellow River, they didn't need to do hard labor anymore. It was fine as long as they were here.
Why doesn't our village have a ruffian ancestor? This was the voice of the villagers in the other villages.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen sighed. Currently, he could only save the people in his own village. The overall situation couldn't be changed immediately.
With a sway of his body, Xiao Chen disappeared from the bank of the Yellow River and quickly appeared in the prefecture government. He flew past the famous treasury of the prefecture government and collected a large amount of gold, silver, and jewelry. Then, he appeared in the backyard of the government office.
When Xiao Chen came out, the government office issued an order to exempt the Ancestral Dragon Village from labor.
When the news came back, the villagers cheered thunderously. They simply couldn't believe this fact.
After Xiao Chen returned, he went to the bank of the Yellow River again. After seeing the Ancestral Dragon Platform and the Heavenly Death Bridge with his own eyes, he felt that this matter wasn't simple. An astonishing conjecture appeared in his mind.
Could it be … the Yellow River was an Ancestral Dragon? He felt that his idea was a little crazy. If the five thousand kilometer long Yellow River was an Ancestral Dragon … It was simply unimaginable!
The human world didn't seem to be as simple as he imagined! Xiao Chen felt that the seemingly ordinary human world was filled with many unknown secrets.
If the Yellow River was an Ancestral Dragon, then the Heavenly Stele that suppressed the Yellow River … Xiao Chen felt that it was necessary to take a look at the Heavenly Stele that sank to the bottom of the river.
It was precisely that Heavenly Stele that made Xiao Chen who he was today. If it wasn't for the Ancient Heavenly Map on it, he wouldn't be able to achieve what he had today.
In addition, he still had a little doubt. Why was their village called the Ancestral Dragon Village?
Xiao Chen flew along the Yellow River and quickly arrived at the section of the Yellow River in front of the village entrance. Then, he rushed into the surging yellow water from the sky.
