Chapter 254: The way to enlightenment?
After returning to the pollen forest, although it was already late at night and it was pitch dark, the two did not stay there for too long. This was Zhang Mo's idea. She said that since Li Changxiao had no intention of leaving, then the two of them could naturally be regarded as friends in need, and they would prosper together and suffer together, so they should cooperate with each other.
Her eyes had been opened and her vision was far superior to that of ordinary people, so she could continue moving forward even in the middle of the night. Li Changxiao's hands and feet were free, so it was more convenient for her to handle some trivial matters.
The two of them walked and finally found a suitable place to rest, and then they stopped to rest.
There was a faint rustling sound all around, as if a breeze was blowing, but this little noise actually scared the dignified martial arts master, Zhang Mo, the elder of Dayan Hua Sect.
After the noise faded away and she realized it was just a gust of wind, Zhang Mo couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. She glanced at Li Changxiao and thought to herself that she had completely lost face in front of this man.
She was secretly annoyed and valued her reputation very much, but she was helpless.
Li Changxiao smiled without saying anything, with a mentality of watching a show. As it was already very late at night, Li Changxiao lit a bonfire on the spot.
He looked around.
Before his retreat, in order to avoid being disturbed, he went deep into the pollen maze and accidentally discovered the Tiancanjiao.
Therefore, coming out from Tiancanjiao, this place is the deepest part of the pollen maze.
Zhang Mo sat down in front of him, and to ease the awkwardness, she thought of some topics and started chatting with Li Changxiao.
Most of them asked Li Changxiao where he lived and why he came here.
Li Changxiao thought for a long time, told Zhang Mo his name, and then made up a background at random, adding some truth to the lies so that people would not easily doubt him.
Seeing that Li Changxiao spoke so clearly, Zhang Mo's vigilance towards Li Changxiao was reduced a little.
Silent all night.
The two continued on their journey. Zhang Mo had gotten used to the current situation. She had been traveling for several hours without encountering the man in black, which made her wonder if the man in black had left or was not in the area at all.
In fact, she had already gone deep into the pollen forest, and it was difficult for the men in black to approach her. The pollen here was lethal. If Li Changxiao had not been by her side, she would have died long ago.
But Li Changxiao didn't say it. He was happy that Zhang Mo thought of him as just an ordinary person.
At noon, during the break, Li Changxiao saw the calluses on Zhang Mo's hands and realized that she was also a sword practitioner. Looking at her dress, he guessed that her sword was also lost.
Zhang Mo was practicing martial arts, and her long hair moved without wind. As for food, they were just some fruits picked by Li Changxiao.
Although the body has gradually adapted, the spirit is always tortured. If it was just one person, it would be fine, but there was another person next to her, a man. Zhang Mo's cheeks flushed, and she still felt very embarrassed.
However, these days, I really thank him, otherwise I would be tied up and there would be many inconveniences. Zhang Mo said sincerely: "Brother Changxiao, if I can get out, Dayan Huazong will definitely reward me handsomely."
One day.
When they came to a river with clear water, Zhang Mo was instantly interested. However, the place was deep in the forest and quite confusing, so she needed to explore the situation.
She looked around and saw a large rock that was half a person's width. She asked Li Changxiao to move away and then she jumped in front of the rock. She gathered all her internal strength and kicked the rock with her legs.
Just hear a bang.
The huge rock flew more than ten meters away and crashed into the river with a loud bang.
The river water suddenly became turbid.
When the river water became clear again, we were sure that there was nothing wrong with it and it could be used for washing.
Li Changxiao nodded secretly, and he had a better understanding of this woman's strength. She was really not weak. No wonder the group of men in black set such a big trap for this woman.
Just as she was thinking about it, Zhang Mo suddenly hesitated to speak. After a long time, it turned out that he wanted to take off her boots so that she could go into the river and have a good swim.
She could kick the boulders, but she was helpless when it came to the boots on her feet and had to ask for help from others. Naturally, she could only count on her "friend in need" companion for such a small matter. Li Changxiao naturally didn't care. As for the girl's charming thoughts, Li Changxiao was also not surprised. After helping her take off her boots, Zhang Mo's ears were already red. Besides being embarrassed, she also felt that there was indeed some smell. She had been in the forest for who knows how many days and had never changed or washed her boots, so naturally her smell would not be that good.
She stole a few glances at Li Changxiao, and when she saw that he didn't have any abnormal reaction, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little grateful. If Li Changxiao had covered his nose at this moment, or said it stinks, she would have felt at a loss as to what to do and would have wanted to find a hole to crawl into. Fortunately, none of these happened.
I immediately developed a favorable impression of this person.
She jumped into the river to wash. Li Changxiao went into the river, washed his hands, and observed Zhang Mo generously.
He discovered that there was some strange energy hidden in Zhang Mo's body.
Vitality, strength, recovery, etc. are far beyond what ordinary people can compare to.
It's not just what's brought about by practicing martial arts.
Li Changxiao is out of touch with the current social situation and knows very little. In this era of rapid change, ten years of change are enough to refresh people's eyes, let alone a hundred years. Zhang Mo, due to his limited mobility, needs to use martial arts and other means everywhere, which is just right for Li Changxiao to observe.
Li Changxiao discovered that there seemed to be several extremely mysterious acupoints in this woman's body.
It involves deeper acupoints. It seems that vitality and physical strength...are constantly emerging from the acupoints.
"The way to open the acupoints?" He remembered a way to prolong life that had just emerged before he fell into a deep sleep.
Yan Shiliu from Yanjia Village seemed to have some connection with this Dao. Of course, at that time, Tongqiao Dao was just a concept, and Yan Shiliu was only fifteen or sixteen years old, so it was naturally difficult for him to access it. It was just that the reason why Yan Shiliu's Qinggong was different from that of ordinary people was that he was born with the "Foot Wind Acupoint". When he ran, it seemed as if there was wind under his feet.
I don’t know whether the acupoints in Zhang Mo’s body are related to Yan Shiliu’s foot wind acupoint.
Li Changxiao became more and more interested in the reforms in the outside world.
However, even though this woman has managed to live a long life as a mortal, there are still some shackles of mortals. In short, eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, etc. are inevitable. But from another perspective, these are not necessarily limitations. This is what being human means.
There was indeed no danger in the river, so Li Changxiao walked around nearby. He picked some flowers along the way, preparing to use them to make wine later.
It is worth mentioning that.
Most of the ten great divine essences in his body were still retained. Even if the ten divine essences were transformed into gods, they would not be able to obtain so many divine essences. How to use the remaining divine essences really troubled Li Changxiao.
Take a walk outside.
Li Changxiao returned to the river. Zhang Mo had already gone ashore and was sitting by the river warming herself by a fire. When she entered the pollen forest, she was wearing a gray silk skirt, which was now wet. Under the tension of the water, it stuck to her skin and was even somewhat transparent.
Seeing Li Changxiao coming back, she bit her lip subconsciously, pretending to be calm and unconcerned. She attached great importance to her reputation, and she made a fool of herself in front of others every day, which made her feel ashamed.
"Brother Changxiao, I have wanted to ask you for a long time, what is this charred stuff on your face?" Suddenly, Zhang Mo looked for a topic to ease the embarrassment.
This is the dead skin that was shed after the thunderstorm. Li Chang laughed and said, "It may be something dirty."
Zhang Mo was puzzled. "If it's mud, why not wash it away? Isn't there a river there?"
Li Changxiao glanced at her, thought about it, and decided that it would be okay to wash it off. This woman regarded him as a friend in need, but he was unwilling to show his true face to others. This was a bit too disrespectful to her.
He walked to the river and washed away the burnt dead skin on his face, revealing the new skin underneath.
Back to the campfire.
The firelight gradually hit Li Changxiao's face as he walked towards her. Zhang Mo's breathing stagnated and she was stunned for a moment. She originally thought that this man had a pleasant temperament and was naturally casual in his dealings with others. Even if she was imprisoned, she would not feel uncomfortable at all. But now seeing his true face, she actually felt a sense of unreality. He was so handsome that she seemed like a person in a dream.
Then he said shyly, "Brother Changxiao is so handsome."
As she spoke, her pretty face turned red. After traveling all over the country for many years, this was the first time she had seen a man with such a look.
