4095 Six-fingered Demon King(2/3)
But life at that time was more exciting, more vivid, and more humane. Today's pace is too fast, and we can travel hundreds of thousands or tens of millions of miles in the blink of an eye.
There are demon gods and big demons everywhere, and there are as many strong people as there are. The big demon gods are about to catch a lot of them. This era is vast and the world is full of stars, but it really doesn't mean much.
"What are you doing?"
Ye Chu was here, looking at a small vendor over there, but a familiar voice came to his ears, and Hongliu came to him in a white dress.
"Haha, that ice juice is quite delicious. I'll get you a few glasses..."
Ye Chu smiled, walked to the vendor, and bought three glasses of ice juice. It was a drink similar to ice orange juice on Earth, except that the cup was larger and the cup was not so professional.
"Can you drink this?" He looked at the ice juice in his hand. It was just some orange water-like stuff. Hongliu had never drunk anything like this before and expressed doubts.
Ye Chu motioned for her to have a taste. He took a glass first, took a deep sip, and made a slurping sound. It seemed to be quite delicious.
Hongliu then took a sip. The ice juice was refreshing in the mouth and slightly sweet. It tasted pretty good.
"How is it okay?" Ye Chu asked her with a smile.
Hongliu said: "It's okay, but this stuff should be drunk by children. It doesn't look good when we drink it..."
"When you drink something, it doesn't matter if it looks good or not, as long as it tastes good..."
Ye Chu didn't think so. He drank a glass in one sip: "Actually, people, no matter what state they reach, they are still human after all..."
"Since we are human beings, it is good to live happily. It is not good to think too much about other things." Ye Chu said.
"It seems you have realized something..."
Hongliu took a sip: "Although what you said makes sense, there are also points that can be refuted. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. This is relative in itself."
"If a Great Demonic Immortal doesn't care about outside matters and just drinks and tastes tea every day, then why would he become a Great Demonic Immortal?"...
"Why not give the resources consumed by the Great Demon Fairy to others?" Hongliu had a different opinion.
Hongliu said: "The resources in the world are limited. Since you have no intention of cultivating immortality, why use the resources belonging to others? If you use other people's resources, you don't cultivate immortality well, and you just want to transcend the secular world and be an ordinary person.
Then what’s the point of this?”
"Haha, if you want to become an immortal, do you have to be aloof from the world?"
Ye Chu smiled and said: "I don't think so. What exactly is cultivating to cultivate immortality? Some people say it is cultivating the soul, cultivating the immortal body, cultivating Taoism..."
"There is also talk about the idea of cultivating and the soul of cultivating, but what is it really about cultivating?"
Ye Chu said: "I think that cultivating immortals is actually cultivating the immortal heart. What is an immortal? In fact, if you look at the word separately, it is the character for human and the character for mountain. Maybe immortal is the person in the mountain."
"Who are the people in the mountains? In fact, they are secluded masters who do not care about worldly affairs, or they are ordinary people in the mountains. They are always ordinary people..."
Ye Chu believes: "To become an immortal, I think it is about becoming a person who is qualified and capable, and who does not care about worldly affairs."
"But are people like this still human?"
Ye Chu shook his head and said to himself: "This is not a human being anymore. Human beings are social animals. They don't care about anything. They don't care about anything. They are detached from the world and hide in the forest. That's not a human being."
"That's why this world is called Wu Immortal, because there is no such person in the world."
"You are lying."
Hongliu said: "Even you yourself are contradictory and you can't explain it clearly. Is the hidden master no longer a human being?"
"The people in the mountains are not human anymore?"
Hongliu disagreed and felt that what Ye Chu said was unreasonable and that he had been involved in it.
"hehe……"
Ye Chu smiled and drank another glass of ice juice: "It's just about Taoism. Taoism is gradually perfected. I haven't completely straightened it out yet, but I feel that since we are human, we should be a little earthy. So-called
It’s really meaningless for an immortal to make himself emerge from the mire and remain unsullied, and have no human spirit at all.”
"You think it's boring, but countless people want to get rid of the earthy smell from their bodies. Everyone wants to enter the secret realm of the fairy world and find the way to immortality..." Hongliu sighed.
Ye Chu turned to look at her: "Sister, are you too?"
"I?"
Hongliu was stunned, and then said: "I'm not interested in immortality..."
"Why? Don't you want to live forever?"
Ye Chu didn't believe it: "Immortality should be the dream of all immortal cultivators. As long as you can live forever, you will have unlimited time to pursue the supreme secret..."
"What are you doing living for so long..."
Hongliu's tone was a little sad: "Your sister, I have lived long enough. I have no friends, no relatives, no brothers and sisters. Living alone in such a prosperous world, what's the point of living any longer."
"It's not like you don't have friends..."
Ye Chu corrected her: "I am your friend. As long as I don't die, you will at least have me as your friend..."
"Haha, that sounds so sad..."
Hongliu smiled bitterly: "But to be honest, I can't remember too many things in the past. The first half of my life was too miserable. I was possessed by evil spirits. Although my cultivation was good, I didn't have a life of my own. It was like being trapped in a cage.
The pigeons inside don’t know the splendor and beauty outside.”
"Your boy is different from others. He has a very high level of cultivation and a special bloodline. However, the earthy and human energy in his body is too strong..."
Hongliu said: "You can't continue like this. It will be very difficult to survive the second life."
"Haha, who can say clearly about life and death?"
Ye Chu smiled and said: "But I really want to study the way to immortality. There is an old saying in our hometown that it is better to live than to die. People always try their best to live. As long as you live, there will be hope.
, something you yearn for will happen, and as long as you live, it will not lose its meaning."
"Since you are alive, you will always find the meaning of existence, whether it is relatives, friends, scenery, or journeys, which are all reasons for people to live."
"Haha, your back hurts when you stand and talk..."
Hongliu doesn’t think so: “If we really want to live in this world, for many people, it would be better to die.”
"So, there is a difference in our cognitions..."
Ye Chu said: "I think as long as people are alive, there will be hope. If you are dead, what hope can you talk about? You can only dream about it in the Hell of Hell."
"hehe……"
Hongliu also felt that what Ye Chu said made sense. Only living people were qualified and had the opportunity to create and change.
Ye Chu didn't argue with Hongliu. Everyone has their own understanding of life, and everyone's experiences are different. Everyone in the world of cultivating immortals is actually a thick book, and everything they have experienced is compiled.
It is a long masterpiece.
And for a character like Hongliu, the life that can be written is far richer and more tortuous than his.
Relatively speaking, Ye Chu has only lived for more than three thousand years, and the things he has experienced are certainly not as good as those of Hongliu.
Ye Chu was sitting on the street, scanning the spirits of passers-by from time to time. In addition to getting some information, he also learned about these people's life experiences and their emotional world.
After less than half an hour, Ye Chu finally scanned a very valuable piece of information, a cultivator of around the eighth level of the Demon God. When he passed by, Ye Chu scanned his Yuanling.
From this guy's Yuanling, Ye Chu got a very important piece of information. Three days later, an unparalleled gathering will be held in Ruoshui City in the south. On that day, an immortal plant will appear in the lord's palace of Ruoshui City.
The root of the medicine.
Ye Chu told Hongliu the news. After Hongliu heard about it, he thought this information was unlikely.
"Elixir of immortality?"
Hongliu didn't quite believe it: "If the immortal elixir really appeared here, then all the powerful immortals from all over the world would come here to fight for it. It is unlikely that such a thing would appear, and it would have been extinct long ago."
"Countless powerful people are searching across the starry sky, all wanting to get the elixir of immortality and live forever from now on. How can there be such a medicine in the world?" Hongliu felt that there was no need to take it seriously. There are often all kinds of extremely exaggerated news in the Ten Thousand Realms on the Immortal Road.
There are very few things that come out that turn out to be true.
It's all these guys. You pass it to him, and he passes it to you. In the end, the pass is exaggerated countless times.
"Ruoshui City is not far away. Let's go and have a look. Anyway, you will have nothing to do if you have nothing to do..."
Ye Chu didn't think so. There was more news in that guy's Yuanling. It was said that the kid was a descendant of a family of pharmacists.
His family has been searching for this medicinal material for tens of thousands of years, and he just got this news.
Now in Ruoshui City, there are probably no more than five people who know about this matter.
This guy came to this city today because he wanted to find help. He has an elder who is at the level of a great demon god here, so he came to find him because he wanted to take him with him.
Therefore, this guy's news still has a certain degree of credibility. Maybe there really is some kind of root of the elixir of immortality. Even if it's just a piece of the root, maybe it can be cultivated in the future, and the efficacy of the medicine will be very impressive.
"If you want to go, go ahead. Where is Ruoshui City?" Hongliu asked.
"It's just south, less than 500,000 miles away, very close."
Ye Chu smiled. If this distance were placed on the earth, many people would probably be exhausted.
Five hundred thousand miles, for Ye Chu today, is only a few teleports away. For Hongliu, it probably only takes two teleports to get there.
"Then let's go and have a look." Hongliu couldn't resist this kid.
The two of them soon arrived at Ruoshui City. This Ruoshui City was similar to the previous one. The city was not big, covering an area of two to three thousand miles. The most important thing was that there were several eye-catching pillars in Ruoshui City.
