Covering the sky starts from the mortal body

Chapter 538 Visiting the Desolate Hut
Zhang Wenchang said goodbye to Princess Yudie. He had no intention of becoming a lord.

With the help of the small void mirror, he quickly arrived at the area where the desolate house was located.

It is said that this is the place where a great emperor lived in seclusion in his later years.

However, that emperor was as far back as 10,000+ years ago, two 10,000+ years ago. No one can tell which emperor he was.

Some people say he is the great emperor of the ancient family in the Eastern Wasteland, some say he is the Heavenly Emperor of Nanling, and some say he is the ancient emperor of the four great divine dynasties in Zhongzhou.

It is difficult to deduce whether it belongs to Zhang Wenchang, but Zhang Wenchang thinks it may belong to the Emperor.

When the Emperor was living in seclusion here, he may have discovered the secret of the tree cave and entered the small world of the Immortal Mansion. Then he was fished by the Immortal Emperor and killed on the road to immortality.

The small Anping Kingdom is more than 100 million miles away from Qishi Mansion. Zhang Wenchang teleported once, but before he arrived, he teleported again.

Looking in the direction of Qishi Mansion, the fairy mountains there are majestic and majestic, filled with spiritual energy, birds and animals, exotic flowers and plants, rooted in the cliffs.

Even if you are not a practitioner, after taking a look, you will feel that it is like a holy land of gods, too mysterious, too powerful, too ethereal, and too beautiful.

Zhang Wenchang opened his sky eyes, and directly there the purple air was transpiring, submerging a piece of fairy mountain, and tens of thousands of dragons jumped into the sky, swallowing the essence of the sun and the moon.

The place where Qishi Mansion is located, with a radius of five hundred miles, belongs to their sphere of influence, and is shrouded in a layer of mysterious mist.

As for the place where Huanglu is located, it is right next to here. This is a small city with a radius of a hundred miles.

All the spiritual energy was drawn to Qishi Mansion, so although it was close to the fairy mountain of Qishi Mansion, it was very desolate and the spiritual energy was thin.

There is a dilapidated city in this territory with a population of about [-]. It is the property of Taishi Xiao's family.

Zhang Wenchang had no interest in being the city lord. He looked around from a distance and found that the city gate was closed.

"Stop, who are you? Why are you peeping into our city?" On the ancient city wall full of cracks, a dozen people, all looking like dogs and very arrogant, were shouting at Zhang Wenchang.

"I'm from Qishi's Mansion, why don't you just wander around here?" Zhang Wenchang replied stiffly.

"The Qishi Mansion has just started recruiting students, and the official selection will start next week. Don't brag, you are a student there if you pass. If you fail, then of course you are nothing."

"We have an owner here. It is the property of our Anping Kingdom, Taishi Xiao's family. If you have nothing to do, don't pry into our city casually."

"Our Anping Kingdom leader, his ancestors also practiced here in Qishi Mansion. We are right next to Qishi Mansion. No one has these relations with Qishi Mansion these days."

Each of these soldiers was more fierce than the other, and they spoke impatiently, especially like those public officials who only received their wages and did not work.

Thinking of this, Zhang Wenchang felt a tinge of anger in his heart, tmd, who is used to their problems?

"You guys open the door one by one, why are you so stubborn?" Zhang Wenchang scolded.

"Bastard!"

"You are courting death!"

"Who do you say is the watchdog, try saying it again!"

Whether it is a person guarding a city wall or a gatekeeper, the most annoying thing is the word watchdog.

Why are so many people unwilling to be security guards?Obviously this job is easy and comfortable, and the salary is higher than that of the workers!
Yes, this mental insult is too severe, and the words "watchdog" are too hurtful.

"I'm talking about you! Come out now!" Zhang Wenchang pointed at the fierce soldier.

"Where are you waiting!"

"Don't run!"

The soldiers pointed at Zhang Wenchang.

After saying that, the group of soldiers ran away without a trace.

Zhang Wenchang was taken aback, this turned out to be a group of soldiers?One by one shouted hard, Zhang Wenchang originally wanted to slap them all to death, but he didn't expect them to slip away like this?
Zhang Wenchang waited here silently for about a quarter of an hour, but no one came out again, and behind the city wall, the sound of several soldiers punching and drinking could be heard.

Zhang Wenchang smiled, this old fried dough stick is really everywhere, and he used such a small trick to play Zhang Wenchang.

In this dilapidated small city, Zhang Wenchang had no interest in interfering with his operation, and after wandering around, he left here.

Soon, Zhang Wenchang came to an ancient village, which was the legendary hermitage of the ancient emperor. It was very mysterious.

There is a patch of ancient locust trees here, which surround the entire village. Each ancient locust tree is very old.

Some of the bark are cracked, and some have holes in them. The trees are very thick, and I don't know how many years they have grown.

The locust tree has always been rumored to be a ghost tree, a tree that attracts ghosts, and has a relatively heavy yin, so it is rarely planted even in rural areas.

However, the vitality of this thing is very tenacious, and this kind of tree is often seen in the barren mountains.

Zhang Wenchang, before crossing over, he chopped firewood when he was a child. This kind of tree is hard and difficult to split. It is very resistant to burning, but it is not easy to attract. It has a strange smell when burning, and it is not very strong when burning. This kind of wood is so garbage that it is not even good for making firewood.

Zhang Wenchang looked at the shady locust trees and remembered picking locust flowers to eat when he was a child. His grandmother told how she survived by eating elm trees, elm bark, locust flowers and wild grasses in those difficult years.

Zhang Wenchang remembers the hard days his grandma talked about, and there are a few things that are quite profound.

For example, one year during the Chinese New Year, I killed a chicken and stewed it in a pot. After a busy year, I finally had a meal of meat, but the Japanese came.

People in the entire village did not dare to stay in the village at all, and they ran and hid in the pine forest on the mountain.

I suffered from hunger and cold in the winter.

The Japanese devils do not celebrate the new year, or the day of the new year is not a time. The Chinese people celebrate the new year, which is the day when the Japanese devils sweep up the bumper harvest.

After a week of hard work on the mountain, when I returned to the village, I found that the inside of the pot was clean, and I couldn’t eat meat all year round. During the Chinese New Year, I finally killed a chicken so that the Japanese devils could eat it clean.

Everything in the house was washed and scraped clean.

Another year, I don't know when, even weeds and elm bark could not be found to eat. Grandma said that she relied on drinking cold water for about ten days, and almost starved to death.

Later, I don’t know which relatives took the only rotten sweet potatoes left in the house, dried them into dried sweet potatoes, crushed them with a stone mill, made some porridge for grandma, and then grandma came back to life.

If you have not experienced that hard time, you have no idea how hard it is for the older generation.

When I was a child, I couldn't understand that my grandfather, my grandfather's eldest brother, lived to be 96 years old.

When he was alive, his life was very simple. He only had white steamed buns and a few pickles for one meal, and he felt very happy after eating them.

Then praise the good society and the blessings of young people, so he can eat white flour buns.

I didn't understand it at the time, but now I understand it. It's true that a full man doesn't know a hungry man is hungry. Losing weight by eating only fruits and not eating a day is incomparable to the hunger of never being full.
