Chapter 810: Old Age
Wu San got this booklet by chance. The content of the booklet is not long, but it describes a world that ordinary people cannot imagine. The brochure mentions several locations where to find something that can open the door to another world. Wu San has been in the mundane for a long time, but he has always had the desire to soar in his heart. For this reason, he worked hard again and again, although he made a little achievement, but his desire was difficult to quench, and once he tasted the sweetness of the upward, it was difficult to stop.
Wu San tried for a long time, and finally found a clue in a hidden place. Relying on this clue, he knew that there was a type of people in this world called the Secret One, and what those people had was a life that was difficult for emperors and generals in the mortal world to have.
However, it is extremely difficult for a mortal person to step into the secret realm through clues. For this reason, Wu San spent almost all his financial resources on this.
After a hundred turns and thousands of efforts, Wu San visited all the places mentioned in the booklet, either with or without gains. Sometimes he wanted to give up, but thinking about those strange things in the secret world, he couldn't help but arouse his fighting spirit again. This intractable mystery is so enticing that he has a lasting motivation to explore.
Eventually, he turned all his attention to Meishan. This is one of the most detailed locations in the booklet. There is a treasure here, and if you get the treasure, you can grasp the power that ordinary people can't imagine. This was almost Wu San's last hope, and in order to keep it complete, he was fully prepared.
Wu San had probably visited here a few times on his own before, but unfortunately it was fruitless, and then there was a story about Zhou Geng later.
What Wu San knew, Zhou Geng didn't know anymore, he couldn't guess.
Burning the bodies of Jinbao and others, climbing up along the rope, and burying the four teenagers on Meishan, Zhou Geng began to think about his way out.
The silver is sufficient, and there is no need to run around for a living, but he knows that he has become the next Wu San, working hard to solve that unknown mystery.
In the past, he didn't dare to go back, so he stayed in Qingliu City and visited Meishan regularly. The hole leading to the lake was also hidden by him. He even got some new soil and sprinkled some grass seeds to keep it from being so obtrusive.
Zhou Geng often came to the underground lake and frolicked with the bull monsters. With the help of the bull monsters, he visited the entire body of water, and sporadically obtained some so-called secret arts.
It's just that because there was no one to guide him and his cultivation was improper, there was a big problem with his body. Although he has extraordinary powers, he is also facing the possibility of his body collapsing at any time. So, he used the golden sword in his hand to take the risk of exchanging some secret stones. He didn't dare to exchange too much, for fear of being hacked by buyers. He began to explore and obtained some of the more evil secret techniques, which were beneficial to his body. This benefit is temporary, just drink to quench your thirst. But he had to.
Zhou Geng has been practicing diligently, and after decades of accumulation, he has finally reached the realm of a high-level secret.
He had regretted it, but after embarking on this path, there was no turning back.
The days went by. After accumulating years of hard work, Zhou Geng finally understood the secret world, knew the secret person, and mastered the secret art, although it was only a little bit. But even this little bit of understanding made Zhou Gengsheng feel powerless. It turns out that the secret realm can be so big, the secret people can be so many, and the secret art can be so strong! Zhou Geng reflected on the road he had traveled and found that there were too many twists and turns.
He was too cautious. However, there is a reason for this caution. He had no one to show him the way, he was on his own, he was under too much pressure to do anything, and his knowledge was too shallow to see through the fog before him. There are so many people in life who have lofty ambitions, but end up with a dull life, probably because of these reasons.
Later, Zhou Geng came back and lived on Meishan. At this time, Wushang was no longer a deserted place, and was gradually developed, and there were more and more people, and Zhou Geng became more and more shallow.
Zhou Geng knew that there were also secrets on Meishan, but he didn't dare to say hello. The vigor of those young secrets made him feel inferior.
I don't know how many times I saw the flowers blooming on Meishan, Zhou Geng finally realized that he was old.
Yes, when you get old, it is difficult for the secret power to grow again, but if you are not careful, it will decline slightly. He knew that he would not be able to make any further progress in his cultivation.
So, he left Meishan and walked around. This may be the last time he will walk in the world.
He came to the village where he had lived since he was a child, and saw that his family's old house had become a piece of the world; he came to the city where he used to stay, and found that no one recognized him when he walked in it; he came to a few powerful sects, and enviously condensed those young disciples who grew up under the care of their teachers; he went to a farther place and saw many things that he had never known.
He had some regrets, Red Maple Island was too small. However, he was too old and had physical problems, so it was impossible for him to go to the bigger and more distant place of Nantang to have a look.
When he returned to Meishan, he met Qin Yan. He found that Qin Yan actually looked very similar to his childhood playmate Jin Bao.
Zhou Geng is old, and by the way, he has a little belief in these incredible things like reincarnation.
Qin Yan also noticed Zhou Geng. He likes to come to Meishan to play, and has seen Zhou Geng walking alone on the mountain road many times. Later, he found out Zhou Geng's secret identity, but he didn't care. Until this time.
At that time, there was no departure from the Fire Sect, but only from the Fire Gate. Qin Yan's position in the door was very embarrassing, and his cultivation had encountered a bottleneck, and he was unable to break through. Seeing Zhou Geng, he stepped forward to ask for advice.
Zhou Geng liked his appearance, and under his good impression, he sincerely told Qin Yan that the secret technique he cultivated was not suitable for Qin Yan.
But where did Qin Yan care so much, he actually begged bitterly.
In the end, Zhou Geng had no choice but to teach the so-called "evil arts" he had cultivated to Qin Yan.
He instructed Qin Yan that it was best to use these "evil arts" as a reference for the cultivation of the secret realm, and not to have too much sustenance on them.
Who would have thought that after Qin Yan cultivated some of these secret techniques, he would actually bypass the secret technique of the Fire Gate, and his cultivation began to grow rapidly.
Qin Yan was overjoyed and was also very grateful to Zhou Geng.
Zhou Geng told Qin Yan about his experience in future interactions. In his heart, Qin Yan has become his mantle heir.
Qin Yan's personality is not consistent with Zhou Geng's, but Zhou Geng feels that it doesn't matter, young people should be a little sharp.
He felt that it was better to do something to promote the future in the rest of his life than to kill innocents indiscriminately by Wu San back then.
