Sincerely

pain.

This was Zheng Duofeng's first reaction.

He struggled to open his eyes, wanting to mobilize his aura, took out the healing elixir in the Qianyuan bag and took it, but suddenly found that he was weak all over, and there was no aura in his body.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground in astonishment, Zheng Duofeng looked at everything in front of him with some stupidity.

The noisy streets, the magnificent carriages in the middle of the road, the accompanying low-level cultivators...

And, my weak self.

how so!

"You scoundrel, leave quickly, if you scare my lady, don't blame me for being rude!"

A girl in an embroidered dress pinched her nose, waved her hands and scolded him, as if Zheng Duofeng was some kind of filth, which disgusted her very much.

Hearing the girl's scolding, Zheng Duofeng couldn't help shivering, and wanted to move his body, but found that he couldn't move because of the pain, so he could only curl up on the ground, crying "hehe".

Seeing Zheng Duofeng's reluctance to leave, the delicate face of the girl in the skirt suddenly sank, she snorted and waved for her attendants.Two burly men in the Qi refining period quickly stepped over from behind the carriage, waved their hands, and lifted Zheng Duofeng, who was in great pain, one after the other.Zheng Duofeng was forcibly lifted up, and he felt that his painful body was about to be torn apart, and he could not live or die.

Lifting Zheng Duofeng, the two burly men moved quickly and swung Zheng Duofeng to the side of the street. They almost smashed a peddler's stall, causing the peddler to complain unceasingly.

Only then did the girl wave her hand in satisfaction: "Let's go!"

After saying that, the bloated and narrow convoy continued to move forward slowly, leaving only Zheng Duofeng who was thrown to the side of the street, watching all this in a daze.

This scene is all too familiar.

Zheng Duofeng remembered everything almost instantly: this is his most painful memory of the past, before he met Chu Xunzhen, he was down and out.When he arrived at this mortal town, Zheng Duofeng accidentally heard that the prostitute of the cultivator family who ruled the town had a kind heart and was keen on traveling, so he had the idea of ​​showing off to the prostitute, hoping that the other party would be discerning. You can tell he's different at a glance.

It's just that before meeting the prostitute, he inadvertently revealed his wish, and his legs were broken by the mortals who had received the favor of the concubine.

After finally climbing to the path of the Concubine's Daughter's Association, Zheng Duofeng was chased away by the prostitute's personal attendant, and his injuries were even aggravated.

The pain drove Zheng Duofeng's will back, he shuddered, and stared blankly at the figure of the long line of carriages leaving.

Ignoring the cursing of the peddler who was harmed by him, Zheng Duofeng suddenly remembered something, he stretched out his hand with difficulty, only saw a pair of palms that were already callused, though thin, and touched his face again, in a trance. Can't help myself.

Is this a dream?

Zheng Duofeng was suspicious.

Or...has he really returned to the past?

Zheng Duofeng was out of his mind for a while, and suddenly, he realized one thing——

If this is really the world ten years ago, even if it is his fantasy... Where is Chu Xunzhen?

Ignoring the pain all over his body, Zheng Duofeng gritted his teeth and struggled to crawl on the ground.He still remembered that this mortal town was considered the place where he took off, and the jade slips containing Chu Xunzhen were located in the mortal market in this town!

In Zheng Duofeng's memory, after a few days, he recovered from his injury and went to the market to see a mortal doctor to treat his legs, but accidentally learned that there were low-level practitioners in the qi refining period selling cultivation formulas in the market.

Although he knew that these low-level cultivators would not have any good things in their hands, Zheng Duofeng was pretentious, hoping to find a chance with the possibility of luck.

Then, he really got the unique treasure in this world...

Thinking of Chu Xunzhen, Zheng Duofeng inevitably felt bitter again, but what followed was a weird and bizarre sense of excitement!

If, this is really the past...

Will he have a chance to start over with Chu Xunzhen?

His strong will drove him to crawl towards the market. Along the way, he would inevitably receive a lot of looks of surprise, pity, or disgust, but Zheng Duofeng ignored them and only thought about Chu Xunzhen in his heart.

It's just that when he finally climbed to the market, found the booth of the qi refining period practitioner who sold the magic formula in his memory, stared at the other party's strange eyes, and rummaged through the pile of old jade slips, but suddenly found:

Among these jade slips, there is no one containing Chu Xunzhen!

Zheng Duofeng was stunned and almost vomited a mouthful of blood. He looked at the astonished cultivator in embarrassment and asked, "Excuse me, may I ask... are there any other jade slips?"

The practitioner in the Qi refining period shook his head and said: "That's all... By the way, this...brother, I think it's better for you to go for a diagnosis and treatment first."

Zheng Duofeng held back his anger: "Is it really gone?"

The practitioner in the Qi refining period sighed: "That's all."

Zheng Duofeng thought in his mind that he found Chu Xunzhen's Jade Slip only a few days later when he came to the Qi Refining Stage Practitioner's booth. It is possible that the Qi Refining Stage Practitioner has not yet obtained Chu Xunzhen's Jade Slip. It seems that He could only bear with it for the time being, wait for a while, and come here again.After the court cultivator apologized, Zheng Duofeng struggled to climb to the direction of the medical hall in the market.Seeing that he was in a mess, the practitioner in the qi refining period thought he was an idiotic practitioner, so he couldn't help feeling sorry for him, so he stopped his booth, took the initiative to help Zheng Duofeng up, and went to the medical center.

But on the way, he suddenly remembered something, and said: "Speaking of which, there are indeed other jade slips."

Zheng Duofeng's exhausted spirit suddenly shook: "This fellow daoist, where is that jade slip... ah... fellow daoist, please don't be offended, I got a dream entrustment from the dead ancestor a few days ago, saying that In the market, a monk who sold jade slips had a relic of his ancestors, so...the relic is not a precious thing, but it is the ancestor's thing..."

The practitioner in the Qi refining period hesitated for a moment before saying, "Then... I'm really sorry."

"how do I say this?"

The Qi-refining period practitioner said awkwardly: "I am also... poor, otherwise I would not come to sell these jade slips at a low price. A few days ago, I sold a few of them in my hand, maybe... the relics that fellow Taoists are looking for It's in it."

Zheng Duofeng felt a pain in his heart, and suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood!

The practitioner in the qi refining period was taken aback and was at a loss, so he hurriedly asked him if he was okay.

The world seemed to be spinning, Zheng Duofeng was dizzy, and there was only one thought left in his mind: Chu Xunzhen might be bought away!

His opportunities, his future, have been robbed by others.

However, what frightened Zheng Duofeng the most was the possibility that Chu Xunzhen was also taken away by others.

His Xunzheng is such a cherished, pure and handsome man, what if the person who buys him is a girl, or a man who likes men?But what if the other party doesn't admire Lanyan, and like himself in the past, deceived his mind and violated his truth-seeking?

Feeling the bloody breath in his mouth, Zheng Duofeng's eyes turned black, and he felt that the world was about to collapse.

Reluctantly helped to the medical hall by practitioners in the Qi refining period, Zheng Duofeng managed to hold on to his will and did not pass out under the doctor's frantic diagnosis and treatment.

He was fed some calming medicine by the doctor to boost his spirits, and then asked the practitioner in the Qi refining period: "Can you please tell me, fellow Taoist, who is the one who bought the jade slip?"

Seeing his persistence, the practitioners in the qi refining period could only sigh, secretly said "Idiot", and said slowly: "I don't know the other party's name... However, you and I are also destined, so I will let you know." Let me tell you. That person is about the same size as you, Fellow Daoist, but much stronger than you, and looks quite upright, but there is a scar on the side of his face, which makes him lose his bearing a bit."

Zheng Duofeng made a note secretly, and was going to look for the other party, and to be safe, he would come to the market to have a look again in a few days.

On the contrary, after listening to the description of the practitioners in the Qi refining period, the doctor who was still fixing Zheng Duofeng's bones was stunned for a moment: "Hey, this person... I know it."

Zheng Duofeng was overjoyed immediately: "Please sir explain it to me!"

The doctor was startled by his sudden utterance, and nearly broke Zheng Duofeng's leg bone again.After he repeatedly apologized to Zheng Duofeng, who was in a cold sweat from the pain, he slowly said, "This person's name is Ren He, and he is an escort coach in my city. Say something nice and explain a thing or two, I think Coach Ren will definitely be willing to part with you and resell the relics of your ancestors to you."

Zheng Duofeng thanked him, and asked the doctor about Ren He's residence, and then he regained his composure.He calmed down a bit, and the exhaustion he suppressed flooded in like a tide, and he couldn't help falling into a dark sleep, even the severe pain in his body was left behind.

This sleep was extremely long, and when Zheng Duofeng woke up, he found himself lying in the side room of the doctor's clinic.

It was already noon on the second day, after Zheng Duofeng paid the consultation fee with the money left on his body, he limped towards the instructor's residence.

The coach lives in the east of the city, far away from the town.Before Zheng Duofeng left, he heard the doctor nagging him for a while. He knew that the other party had a cultivation level. It is said that he was a foundation-building disciple of a certain sect. He was similar to the down-and-out qi refining period practitioner before, so he found a job as a teacher in the city.

In the distance, a small courtyard appeared in front of Zheng Duofeng's eyes.

The courtyard on that side was a bit dilapidated, but it was clean and tidy, and it was pleasing to the eye.

only……

Zheng Duofeng stared blankly at the young man who was standing in front of the main entrance of the courtyard, playing with a milky white kitten.

The other party's black hair was tied softly behind his head, his dark eyes were like stars, they were extraordinarily pure and penetrating, and his Qingjun face with a smile was extremely dusty, like a green bamboo, which made Zheng Duofeng feel Suddenly, the ordinary courtyard seemed to be full of splendor because of the appearance of the young man.

Zheng Duofeng spoke slowly, as if in a lifetime.

"Looking for the truth..."
