Hanging pot to help the world, I just want to live forever

Chapter 345 Another breakthrough

Xianlin 100 years.

In the nameless mountain, looking at the freshly baked pit in front of him, Gu Dan's complexion was very ugly.

It is said that there is no time in the mountains, and there is no age in the cold.

In the blink of an eye, it has been 11 years since he left the Buzhou Mountains, and a full 100 years have passed since the day when he witnessed the falling stars from the night sky.

During this period of time, he tried to refine Qi more than a hundred times, flattened several hilltops, and created many large holes, but there was no slight fluctuation in the progress of refining Qi.

Even if the method of refining Qi was derived from the Qi Refiner, it wouldn't be so difficult, right?

Although the thing he lacks most is time, such continuous failures without any progress are undoubtedly difficult to make people happy.

"Why did it fail?"

Looking at the terrifying big pit in front of him, Gu Dan couldn't understand it.

The method of refining Qi has been passed down by the ancient Qi refiners. Compared with the mass graves in "Refining Qi" to refine the blood Qi of evil spirits, he used his own blood to steal and refine blood Qi. The strength of the material should be higher. Going to the next level, even more pure.

Logically speaking, no matter what, it must be more than one grade better than the refining method of mass graves, right?

But over the years, his bleeding is more than enough to fill a large lake, and there is no hope of success. The best result is just a bigger hole.

No matter how arrogant or impatient he was, Gu Dan couldn't help but frown.

Either my method is wrong, or there may be some problems in "Lian Qi".

If it's just that he doesn't have much progress, it won't make Gu Dan feel too depressed. What's more, it's been a hundred years since the night falls from the sky.

A hundred years is really a lot for an immortal, right?

Even if it is a strong person at the Jindan level, it is hard to say that it is a 'flick of a finger', right?

When will the immortal who suddenly left this world come back?
Is it possible that after smashing down the star, he didn’t care about anything else?
But the fact is, there is no news.

It seems that when the sky star was smashed down, it was really done casually, and it was forgotten after throwing it away.

In addition, as time goes by, the overall strength of the Buzhou Mountains is undoubtedly increasing very rapidly.

He didn't make any big progress, but Huang Chao and others were still climbing.

It was inevitable that Gu Dan felt a rare sense of anxiety.

This time, Gu Dan did not choose to go back to Ping'an Town and take a rest after failing, but started bloodletting again.

He wanted to try to refine the blood energy non-stop to see if it would be effective.

If you really don’t have any new insights, just make up the numbers!

Among the nameless mountains in Jincheon, things have been particularly unsettled recently.

Every once in a while, there will be an earthquake.

The beasts panicked and fled.

The beasts that originally lived deep in the mountains and forests all escaped.

The people of Ping'an Village were quite happy at first. The prey that was originally difficult to find is now very easy to find.

But if this kind of life lasts for a long time, it is inevitable that a few ferocious beasts will pop out suddenly and almost kill people.

After a careful inspection by the new village head, Zhuang Sheng, he told the villagers that this was just a temporary change, and there was no need to worry, it would end soon.

Then he went deep into the mountains and found Gu Dan with bloodshot eyes.

"Brother Kong, why are you so anxious?"

After seeing Gu Dan, Zhuang Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly. At this time, something seemed wrong with Gu Dan, as if he had entered a dead end.

"It never works out."

Gu Dan put down his pale palm, and his face looked a little haggard.

The innate realm, after so many years, is about to become his inner demon.

Every time I feel that after encountering hope, there are always various difficulties. Even if I rely on years of hard work, I can't make any progress.

His mind is considered to be superior to that of ordinary people, so he can't help but be anxious and restless. Ordinary people would have given up long ago.

"Some things can be done by people; some things still need to rely on the timing of the weather; and some things can't be achieved only by personal efforts, and they need the right time, place and people to do it."

Zhuang Sheng comforted him: "Brother Kong is always peaceful, why are you so anxious about this matter?"

"."

There were too many words to say at the moment, and Gu Dan could only sigh.

He naturally hoped in his heart that before the arrival of the immortals, before the changes in the Buzhou Mountains, he would be the first to reach the innate realm, so that his heart would be stable enough.

But some things may not necessarily go the way you want them to.

Now it is the [-]rd year of Xianlin. After three years of crazy refining of blood energy, it cannot be said that it has achieved nothing. It can only be said that it has achieved nothing.

He was also mentally exhausted.

"If you're trying to do something that you can't do for the time being, you might as well wait a little longer. Maybe a turning point will appear before you know it?"

Zhuang Sheng picked up Gu Dan and said, "Go back and go back to Ping'an Village to recuperate for a while. In a few days, the time agreed upon will be coming, so you might as well go and relax."

"When was the original appointment?"

Gu Dan was slightly taken aback, although his condition was not very good, but he was far from the stage of 'old eyesight', why didn't he remember any agreement he had made?
"Brother Kong forgot? When the carp leaped over the dragon's gate and parted, that little girl made an appointment to meet again this time."

Zhuang Sheng said casually.

"Has it been 14 years?"

Gu Dan suddenly understood.

The scene of carps jumping over the Dragon Gate happens every 15 years.

It seemed to him that it was still a few days ago since the last reading, and in the blink of an eye it was almost time for the carp to leap over the dragon's gate again.

For 14 years, he has only worked hard for one thing.

But unfortunately, nothing was accomplished.

Back in Ping'an Village, 14 years have passed, and I don't seem to see much change from when I first came here.

Perhaps it was because Gu Dan was not familiar with the people in this village, and it was nothing more than a group of unfamiliar faces.

On the contrary, Zhuang Sheng said in a homely way: "The old village head who welcomed us passed away two years ago at the age of 73. In the last two years, I was elected as the village head."

Although he is the village chief, he actually has no unique rights.

It's nothing more than the words 'virtuous and respected', and it is considered qualified to be able to coordinate conflicts between neighbors.

Although Zhuang Sheng has not been in Ping'an Village for a very long time, and he is not even a native of Ping'an Village, he is very capable and knowledgeable, and he never favors anyone.

Whether it's fishing, hunting, or planting, they are well-spoken. Naturally, they are loved by the people of Ping'an Village, and it is not surprising that they were elected as the village head.

Back in front of the thatched hut, Gu Dan was surprised to find that next to the two thatched huts he and Zhuang Sheng shared, there was a layer of thatch on the ground. A little guy who looked to be no more than a year old was happily doing so. Crawling around on the thatch.

After seeing Zhuang Sheng, the little boy tried his best to climb up from the ground, calling out in a childish voice: "Father!"

For a moment, it suddenly seemed like a dream.

Gu Dan turned his head to look at Zhuang Sheng, only to see Zhuang Sheng with a calm expression, bent down and hugged the little guy in his arms, and responded with a smile, "Hey."

"Is this your child?"

Gu Dan was very surprised.

In the early years, Zhuang Sheng and his wife did not give birth to an heir. He thought that Zhuang Sheng had no such idea.

Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, children would be able to call them daddy.

"Yes, his name is Zhuang Yun, Yun Duo's cloud."

Zhuang Sheng raised the little guy's hands above his head, and the little guy's excited and unspeakable screams came from his ears, and there was a trace of kindness in his eyes.

At this time, Gu Dan suddenly realized that most of Zhuang Sheng's hair had turned white - he shouldn't have ignored these things, but deep down, he seemed to have deliberately ignored the passage of time itself.

For him, 14 years of flicking his fingers is enough to make many, many things happen in the common world.

So much that he couldn't react in time.

"...a very good name."

Gu Dan didn't know what kind of expression he should put on. He wanted to reach out and pinch the little guy's round, chubby face full of baby fat, but he was a little scruples.

It was Zhuang Sheng who stuffed Zhuang Yun, who couldn't speak a few words, into Gu Dan's arms, and Gu Dan hugged the little one at a loss.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't be so flustered.

Because a long time ago, as long as a hundred years ago, he also hugged a little one, and then watched them grow up.

This matter, to him, should not be so strange.

But he hadn't been this close to anyone for a long time.

The little boy's immature skin rubbed against Gu Dan's body, and he stretched out his restless little hand to pull Gu Dan's beard. The little guy didn't understand anything, so naturally he seemed extraordinarily arrogant and domineering, his tiny feet stepped on Gu Dan's palm , trying to climb up.

He grabbed Gu Dan's beard with one hand, and groped around his face with the other hand, as if he wanted to borrow another boost, he waved his short legs and feet together, and made an inaudible sound in his mouth. He hummed in understanding, and some of his pure eyes were just curious.

This new creature!
So pure, ignorant, and enthusiastic.

Full of curiosity and ignorance about everything.

The anxiety that Gu was worried about also subconsciously faded a lot.

"The child is very healthy and very energetic."

After regaining his composure, Gu Dan finally hugged the little one who was just over one year old in a position that was more comfortable for the child, and then said.

"Ha, since Brother Kong came here, the people in Ping'an Village haven't had any illnesses for many years, not to mention serious illnesses, and they haven't even had any minor illnesses."

Zhuang businessman said pointedly.

"Maybe it's because you are their lucky star?"

Gu Dan answered very naturally.

Healing diseases and saving lives seems to be a word that is far away from him, but in fact he has been doing it all the time, but when he does it, it is like the spring breeze warming up, and it has reached the state of moistening things and making no sound.

A real miracle doctor doesn't even need the patient to know who he is, and the disease can be cured without medicine.

Although he can't be the sun in the world, it's not a problem to be a bonfire in the dark to warm people who occasionally come to him.

"That being the case, isn't it a good thing?"

Zhuang Sheng laughed, "Come, drink."

For Gu Dan, the mountains are very peaceful.

Pingan Village is located in the mountains of Zhenchuan. It is rarely visited by people and has not seen outsiders for many years.

The life here is really "working at sunrise and resting at sunset" every day. There are not even a few households with oil lamps in the whole village.

In order to adjust his mood, Gu Dan followed Zhuang Sheng and watched a part of his life.

They are really no different from the people of Ping'an Village.

The same sunrise and sunset, the same wife and children on the kang, the same busyness and leisure.

Ordinary to the point where it is completely invisible, Zhuang Sheng is actually a grand master, and he even practiced a low level of immortality - the level of immortality has fallen to the bottom in recent years, so we don't need to talk about it.

Every day at dusk, many people in Ping An Village gather under the big trees next to the village to enjoy the cool air and even chat. Children can also run around wildly, sometimes with their parents scolding and reprimanding them.

Occasionally, Zhuang Sheng is useful. For example, a group of children who want to listen to a story will surround Zhuang Sheng and refuse to leave.

Zhuang Sheng also always accepted everyone who came, regardless of the few children, he could just listen to what he said.

Moreover, the story is told with both emotion and emotion, and there is no slacking off or perfunctory because the other person is a little guy.

Occasionally, adults would come over and ask him about planting and hunting methods. Zhuang Sheng could just roll up his sleeves and get started, carrying the smelly excrement and splashing it across the farmland with an ordinary look on his face.

Gu Dan has known many masters, and also met many masters who are kind to the lower class.

Such as Moqiu, such as Xun Ke, such as Qin Lisheng.

But Zhuang Sheng is different from them.

Those people - they are kind to others, but they want to do too many things, which are too difficult. They rush along the way slowly, although they do not lose the warmth, they are like the blazing sun in the sky.

Moisturizes all things, but is difficult to approach.

But Zhuang Sheng was not like that.

He is not the sun raised above everyone's heads, he is in the world.

People further away couldn't see him, only those who were close could feel the slightest bit of power in him.

When telling stories, he is a storyteller; when planting, he is a farmer; when hunting, he is a hunter; when educating villagers, he is a village head; when facing children, he is a father; chatting with Gu Dan when he was a Taoist
Gu Dan thought about it, and there were probably only six words that could properly describe what he saw in Zhuang Sheng.

It combines light and dust.

Zhuang Sheng can 'enjoy himself' in everything.

In this world, Gu Dan has never seen anyone who is more open-minded and easy-going than Zhuang Sheng, and neither is he himself.

As the days passed, Gu Dan's mood gradually became calmer.

One day, when I was meditating on the "White Lotus Visualization" every day as usual, among the 36-petal lotus that had been silent for a long time, the sixth petal slowly opened.

In an instant, Gu Dan's sea of ​​consciousness seemed to be swept by a hurricane. It was the first time that he perceived the sea of ​​consciousness itself so clearly.

His field of vision separated from himself in an instant, and continued to spread to the surroundings. From ten feet to one hundred feet, everything can be seen in a panoramic view, and every detail is clearly visible.

After 14 years of hard work to condense blood qi, there is little progress.

On the contrary, it is a daily routine, almost instinctively observing, the lotus in the white lotus visualization finally opened its sixth petal.

His spirit has made another phased breakthrough!
Along with the stretching of the sixth lotus leaf, a certain mysterious and mysterious feeling broke into Gu Worrying's head, and he gradually realized it.
