Chapter 133 Among mortals
From this day on, there is a young man named Liu Yi in a small village called Liujia Village in the mortal world. This young man, only in his twenties, has a handsome face, gentle temperament, taciturn, and always has a slight sadness on his face. This man is Long Yi.
With the help of Mr. Liu, Long Yi picked up the thatched hut and officially lived there. The thatched hut is located in the east of the village, which is relatively quiet and quite suitable for Long Yi to live alone. The people in the village soon knew that there was a foreigner who was lost in Liu's village. Therefore, when they saw Long Yi, they would also greet him loudly. However, because Long Yi was not good at talking, he did not talk to many people in the village. The back and forth.
A new day came. When the day was just bright, Long Yi pulled the door out of the thatched hut. He was dressed in a coarse cloth and a simple axe at the back of his waist. If it hadn't been for the deepness between his eyebrows because of the occasional frowns, it would have been no different from an ordinary villager.
Close the door, Liu Yu walked out of the village. Seeing the villagers along the way, he also smiled faintly, nodded and didn't say much. The villagers were also used to Long Yi's taciturn and didn't care, so they left peacefully.
Walking out of the village and entering the mountain forest, Long Yi took out the axe and cut down a tree in front of him. After cutting down the tree, he chopped the tree into firewood, and finally tied it up with vines and slowly carried it down the mountain. After finishing all this, it was almost noon.
He went down the mountain and returned to the village. Long Yi did not go back to the house, but walked to Mr. Liu's house. When he walked to Mr. Liu's house, Mr. Liu was already waiting there in advance.
"Grandpa, I'm sending you firewood."
Since he was taken over by Mr. Liu that day, Long Yi silently took on the task of helping Mr. Liu cut firewood and grass. At first, Mr. Liu was a little surprised to see him carrying a large pile of firewood for himself, but when he understood Long Yi's intention, he readily accepted it.
Mr. Liu smiled and shouted to the room and said, "Linger, come out quickly. Your Brother Liu is here. I'll bring you a bowl of water to drink!"
Long Yi smiled faintly, took off the firewood and piled it on the side of Mr. Liu's room. When Mr. Liu's voice fell, a petite figure came out of the house with a bowl of water.
It was a girl who was twenty-eight years old. She was a granddaughter who depended on Liu's father-in-law. After Liu's son and daughter-in-law died, she followed Liu's father-in-law. Long Yi did not see her on the first day he came to the village, but the next day when Long Yi came to Liu's father-in-law's house with firewood, the spirit saw Long Yi nodded and went into the room shyly, but a few days later, the girl's shyness was slightly reduced, and she dared to talk to Long Yi.
After taking the clear water in Linger's hand, Long Yi thanked him, drank it all, handed the water bowl back to Linger's hand, and said goodbye to the two as usual. Ling'er suddenly said, "Brother Liu, stay and eat. My meal is ready."
Mr. Liu looked at Long Yi with a smile and said, "Yes, Liu Yi, stay and eat."
Liu Yi waved his head and thanked them again, saying, "No, uncle, Linger, I just ate some wild fruits in the mountain. I'm not hungry at this time. You can eat it. I'll go back and have a rest."
After saying that, Liu Yi turned around and left, and did not see the slightly disappointed look of Linger behind him.
Returning to the house, Long Yi closed the door and sat down on the simple kang. After a short rest, he crossed his knees and closed his eyes.
Although because the regression of cultivation is too serious, the yuan spirit dissipates, only the weak soul remains in the sea of knowledge, and the spiritual power in the body is still dry, and it is difficult to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, Long Yi did not give up his cultivation. Every day at noon and night, after returning to the house, he will sit still and adjust his breath and try to sense the heaven and earth. Reiki, I hope to get rid of today's mortal state at some point.
However, half an hour later, Long Yi opened his eyes, and his eyes still showed disappointment. Today, like other times, there was still no progress.This is not the first time he failed, so Long Yi just sighed and temporarily suspended his practice. He walked out of the house, looked at the sky outside the house, took a bow and arrow and an axe, and entered the mountain forest again.
Nowadays, he is no different from a mortal. He not only does not have any cultivation, but also his body is not much better than ordinary people. He is no longer the strong practitioner who does not need to eat human fireworks, but also needs to eat to maintain his vitality.
Entering the mountain forest, Long Yi held a bow and arrow and looked for the figure of the beast in the mountain. After shooting the beasts after some twists and turns, he went down the mountain again. As usual, after giving more than half of his prey to Mr. Liu and Linger, he returned to his house with the rest of the prey and simply ate it. After that, try to practice and then fall asleep.
In this way, in this ordinary and quiet mountain village, Long Yi lives his mortal life day after day. Every day is very regular and even boring. And he didn't smile and lived away from the group, so although the villagers had a good impression of him because he had been helping the life of Mr. Liu and Linger, they did not disturb his solitary life too much.
Lying on the bed, Long Yi used his hands as pillows, but did not fall asleep. Instead, he opened his eyes and looked at the starry sky on the window sill. A day of mortal life, although not tired, is not easy. Only at this time, looking up at the starry sky, Long Yi seems to have time to recall the secrets and ambitions in his heart.
Long Yi knew that the stars in the sky, at every point, were an astral world, just like the celestial world he was in. Once, he made a wish to the starry sky, hoping that his father could take him to the sky and touch those stars.
Now it seems that that wish is just a child's naive illusion.
When he grows up, his wish is to go to the extraterrestrial world and see how powerful the practitioners in the infinite star world are.
Each star point is a star world and a world, and now he can't even conquer a nameless celestial world, can't be detached, and can't realize the ideal of leaving the celestial world and entering other star worlds.
If it can't be achieved now, it doesn't mean it can never be implemented. Although he is already a mortal, since he left the stream, Long Yi has never had any confusion and doubt in his heart. He firmly believes that one day he can get rid of the current situation, set foot on the road of practice again, restore his identity as a practitioner, and complete the promises and missions that he needs to complete!
The night was getting darker and drowsiness gradually came. Long Yi closed his eyes and fell asleep. Just as he fell asleep, outside his house, two figures quietly flew to his window.
The two people took a look at Long Yi, and one of the women said, "My husband, he seems to be used to mortal life now. In your opinion, will he be willing to be mediocre because of this?"
The man who was called her husband by the woman said: "I don't think so. From his daily efforts to sense the aura of heaven and earth, it is enough to see that he has not given up. Moreover, his life is so self-disciplined, obviously because of his persistent belief in his heart. I think that although he is living an ordinary life now, it may not be abandoned. The master once told us that there are thousands of ways to practice, and the most important thing is to understand the Taoism. It should be very good for him to live a mortal life in the future. Of."
