The system runs away at the beginning, I regard the way of heaven as my father

The jade box was opened, and ten white, pagoda-shaped bodhi flowers lay quietly inside. Mysterious aura flowed from them like smoke, and they carried a strange fragrance, which was particularly frightening.

But the sloppy old man's eyes were half-squinted, but he instantly jumped up from his chair, his eyes glowing with light, and the formation space was trembling violently, as if it was about to collapse at any moment.

"Bodhi flower!", he said in a deep voice and hesitated every word.

"Shopkeeper Li, did you find a bodhi tree?"

Li Chuyi laughed, feeling that he had done all his best to stay in the cold water of Tongtian Jiangyin for three years, and it turned out that it was not in vain. Only this kind of thing can shock these old people who have lived for who knows how many years.

At this moment, he felt even more radiant on his face.

"Senior, it's just the bodhi tree. It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning at all, haha..."

Seeing Li Chuyi croaking here, the old man looked a little strange and sat down again, "Shopkeeper Li, why don't you take advantage of the wind and fly up to ninety thousand miles?"

"Ah? What do you mean!" Li Chuyi was slightly startled!

But the old man said like an old god: "You are so powerful, why don't you go to heaven?"

"..."

Li Chuyi said angrily: "Just a joke, just a joke, senior, I haven't tasted this bodhi flower yet, so I brought it to you directly. Look..."

"Let's be honest. What do you want me to do when you are so generous?"

"Hey, senior, let me ask first, do you know how long this trip to the Twelve Lands will take?"

"The return date is uncertain, life and death are uncertain, but it won't be too soon anyway. What, you don't want to go?", the old man glanced lightly.

"No, how could it be? I couldn't ask for it!" Li Chuyi quickly denied it, and then continued: "Senior, all the shopkeepers are going this time. Is there anyone else accompanying you?"

"No, the shopkeeper is among the most talented, knowledgeable, and powerful people in the Miracle Pavilion. Only you can go there."

When Li Chu heard this, he sighed in his heart. He was afraid that he would really be unable to catch up with Lin Daiyu and Lianyi's wedding. But this is not bad, so as not to bring bad luck to others.

He looked up with a smile again, "Senior, you will always be in the first place, right?"

"nature!"

"Then can you please do me a little favor, senior? I have two acquaintances. In about ten years, it will be the day when they will get married. Can you help me send a congratulatory gift?"

"That's it?", the old man looked surprised, "You begged me with bodhi flowers so generously, and you asked me to give you a gift?"

"Well, yes, it's not like I can't spare that time, and I don't have any requirements. I just want the whole scene."

"Okay, it's grand, right? I promise you." The old man picked up a Bodhi flower and looked at it carefully in his hand, then sighed and said, "It's a pity that the blooming Bodhi tree is just a sapling, but even so, It is also a rare immortal product in the world.”

"Senior, according to your words, have you ever seen a real Bodhi tree?" Li Chu looked a little interested.

"No, but I have seen a real bodhi flower. Its mysterious and majestic appearance is simply indescribable!" the old man sighed, his eyes revealing memories.

Li Chuyi was thoughtful, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something.

I saw a flash of light, and in this small formation space, there was a graceful and beautiful woman with closed eyes, but Tianling and Baihui both inserted a nail.

"What is this?" The old man stood up instantly again, but this time, his eyes were full of solemnity.

"Senior, I got it from the Tongtian River. I cut open this woman's abdomen before and found that her bones, no matter the strength, quantity, or even the exquisite structure, completely crushed the human race, and she also has two hearts, even this The second heart can actually absorb the strange vitality of Tongtian River."

"Senior, is she a human?" Li Chuyi said straight to the point.

The old man shook his head, "Human? Have you ever seen a person with so many bones? Or does he still have two hearts?"

Seeing that the old man was so angry, Li Chuyi just wanted to refute, but he didn't have two hearts, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it.

"Senior, this junior is still young and too short-sighted. If you encounter something you don't understand, come and ask for advice!"

He made a good gesture as a junior, and pointed to the woman's body on the ground, "Senior, why don't you take a closer look? This woman can automatically isolate herself from spiritual detection."

The sloppy old man didn't say much, he just stepped forward and groped at this graceful body, probably touching the bones.

After a while, he sat back down and said, "Put it away, I already know it."

Li Chu nodded, put away his body, and then said seriously: "Senior, please give me some advice!"

The old man's cloudy eyes were a little clearer and a little more sad, "Tens of thousands of years ago, I also met such a person, but that person was a man."

"He is too young. Just like you, he seems harmless."

"But!", the old man's tone suddenly became lower.

"There were a total of nineteen people traveling with me at that time. Except for me, the rest were all killed by him..."

Li Chuyi frowned and hurriedly asked: "Senior, how do you feel about him?"

The sloppy old man sighed, as if he didn't want to recall that scene, but he still smiled bitterly and said, "He ate me."

"It's just like you think. It can be roasted on the fire, sliced ​​into slices, or eaten raw. Anyway, all the flesh, blood, soul, and spirit will fall into his belly."

"To this day, I still can't forget that scene. The figure of the young man with a smile on his face and clear eyes, with drops of blood falling from the corner of his mouth, is always haunting me like a nightmare. Not going."

"It seems that in that person's eyes, eating people is a very common thing, just like eating all kinds of livestock. It doesn't make any waves in their hearts, or they just complain a few times and think it's not delicious. Try another approach every time.”

When Li Chu heard this, he didn't know why, but his heart felt cold. He was eating people! ! !

This is not an obsession or a psychopath, it seems to be an instinct of the other party, like a person eating chicken or duck.

He began to recall that when he was in Tongtian River, he tried to die and pulled out two nails from the woman's head. The woman came to life in an instant. The first thing she said to him afterwards was, "Lang Jun, let me eat it." You do it! '

If it hadn't been for the Heavenly Ghost's intervention, something big would have happened.

Li Chuyi couldn't help but think about it. People are always frightened by things that look like humans but are not actually humans, but other races don't seem to have this reaction.

Does this mean that at a certain moment in human history, avoiding things that look extremely human was so important that it became an instinct, firmly engraved in the memory of human souls, and passed down from generation to generation.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Senior, do you know where they come from?"

The sloppy old man shook his head, with a trace of fear still remaining in his cloudy eyes: "I only know what they call themselves!"

"Perfect human race!"
