Chapter 284: Aged Chen Xun - Five Deteriorations of the Celestial Being
The rear of the two armies began to press forward. The shrill screams, crazy killings, and blazing flames made the soldiers of the two countries more angry, and the war became more and more intense.
Countless figures struggled in the sea of blood, up and down, arms like grass, heads like grass, like a bloody grassland in the howling wind.
Chen Xun held a mountain axe, his forehead veins bulged, and he rode on the big black bull as if there was no one in the world. He went in and out seven times and killed people everywhere!
Millions of troops charged, and the battlefield became a real meat grinder...
The rain of horse hooves, the thunderous shouts, and the hot blood.
The white hair of a loving mother, the distant gaze of a spring boudoir, the night cry of a child, the farewell under the willow shade of the hometown, the angry eyes of the general when he roared, and the military flag after throwing away his armor.
All of them drifted away with a puff of smoke and dust.
Chen Xun and Da Hei Niu's country won a great victory, and many people noticed them. They looked brave and fearless, and they were born to be warriors on the battlefield!
However, they did not reach the pinnacle of life, become generals to defend the country, and then marry a delicate princess. They had no background, no way to be promoted, and even their military merits were embezzled.
Chen Xun could only be a soldier who charged into battle, but he was exempted from the crime of being exiled to the frontier, and the result was not bad.
The war lasted for a total of three years. Their country won a great victory. Those generals sang praises, the whole country celebrated, and the world was amnesty.
Chen Xun and Da Hei Niu honestly carried corpses on the frontier, and there were many bones.
They completely returned to freedom and became civilians again. They also "picked up" a lot of money on the battlefield and had some small capital.
Chen Xun was over 30 years old and middle-aged. He had grown a tuft of black beard, but because he had been on the battlefield, his momentum was quite fierce, and he had a fearless momentum no matter how he looked at it.
They traveled all over the world and went to a new city, where they became small vendors. They dared not do anything illegal or disorderly, lest they be suppressed by the great Lord Qingtian.
Night, Xicheng, Xunwei snacks.
Chen Xun laughed heartily, and started a pot of oil, and there was an endless stream of diners around.
"Old Cow, quickly change the copper coins for the guests, don't delay other people's time!"
"Moo!"
The big black cow was sweating profusely, counting the copper coins with his eyes wide open. There were many people around who laughed at him, but they were all yelled at by Chen Xun, and they dared not to nag anymore.
Another two years.
They saved a lot of money and went to a restaurant for a big meal. The night market vendor closed down completely, and Chen Xun opened a clothing store.
The big black cow was still the one who collected the money. Every day, he and Chen Xun counted the accounts together, and they were all sweating profusely.
But their business was good, making much more money than the vendors. Chen Xun was also quite arrogant, saying that he would definitely buy a piece of land and build a large courtyard for retirement in the future!
Da Hei Niu believed it without a doubt. Chen Xun was very smart and could be called the smartest person in the world.
Five years passed in a hurry, but...
Fate was unfortunate. The immortal world was fighting. The immortals took action. Their city was about to be reduced to ruins, with countless casualties!
Chen Xun and Da Hei Niu followed the people and ran away frantically. They didn't care about their belongings. The immortals walked in the air and had great power when they took action. How could mortals stop them? !
On the way to escape.
"Old cow, run, the immortals are fighting!"
"Moo~"
Chen Xun led Da Hei Niu and ran away. All the beautiful fantasies were broken, and there would be no immortals to make decisions for them.
Those who are high and mighty will never know that a casual blow may destroy the hope and future of others' lives.
One year later.
Chen Xun's face had been weathered and his hair was messy during the escape. He didn't expect that they were penniless in the end, but they still had some dried meat on them.
He took out a piece of dried meat from his bag with his calloused hands: "Old Cow, you eat first."
The big black cow rubbed against Chen Xun, and there was still joy in his eyes. Even though the road was bumpy, they did not get separated and stayed together all the time.
It bit half of it, and then gave the rest to Chen Xun, who also ate it. They sat on the hillside and looked at each other and laughed.
It seemed that no matter what he had experienced, Chen Xun was always optimistic and never worried about gains and losses.
"Moo~~"
The big black cow snorted happily. It was still strong and could go back to the countryside to farm.
"Old Cow, let's go back to the small mountain village!"
"Moo!"
Chen Xun stood up and hugged the head of the big black cow. The two figures walked farther and farther away in the sunset, and the shadows were stretched longer and longer...
The evening breeze blew over the hills, blowing the robe of the man with a somewhat upright figure, and he was very chic.
In the following days, they returned to the small mountain village. Many old people in the village were surprised. Chen Xun had been out for so long, how could he go back to the past? !
Chen Xun and the big black cow were quite embarrassed. They could only give them some yams collected on the road. They really didn't make a name for themselves.
They built a thatched house by an old crane tree. Chen Xun sometimes taught the children in the village to practice martial arts. Little Black was the smartest.
As Chen Xun's first disciple, he and the big black cow had great expectations for Little Black!
As the days passed, he was gradually honored as Chen Jiaotou by the young men in the village. He swung his two axes with great vigor.
The big black bull was full of energy, plowing the fields every day. The villagers never doubted it, as if the big black bull was supposed to live this long.
It didn't think too much, thinking that it was born this way, and it was good to be able to follow Chen Xun.
Time left no trace, but it carved marks on Chen Xun's face one after another. He was old...
Big Black Bull took care of all the heavy work at home, and he couldn't let Chen Xun get hurt. Only in this way, he would definitely not die and could stay as energetic as it was!
It had a firm belief in its eyes. Those who died were killed or died of illness. Chen Xun had never been sick.
But Chen Xun's body was getting weaker and weaker day by day, and he was getting more and more hunched. Even his movements were not as good as before. But he often had memories in his eyes and was silent.
Big Black Bull would go up the mountain alone every day to find herbs for him, and fight with wild beasts from time to time, and one of his horns was broken.
Another five years of spring and autumn,
Today, the weather is a little cold, and people can't feel any warmth.
Rustling.
The old crane tree outside the thatched house dropped yellow leaves, filled with a decayed and bleak atmosphere, with desolate and lonely.
Chen Xun was in the state of aging, which was a sign of the feast. The wrinkles on his face were completely different from the vigor and vitality of his youth. He was lying on the bed and was almost dying.
After returning from the mountain, the big black bull saw Chen Xun in such a state, and the few herbs in his mouth fell heavily to the ground. The light sound of the falling seemed to crack the earth.
Chen Xun's eyes were gentle, and he coughed violently: "Old cow, birth, aging, illness and death are human nature, but I can't accompany you on the road in the future."
"Moo~~Moo~~"
The big black bull's eyes trembled, and he kept snorting. He walked to the bed step by step with his hooves. He looked panicked. What should he do?
Chen Xun stroked the big black bull's head and took out a small plate from the bedside. There was dried meat on it. This was the last meal he made for the big black bull.
With a warm smile in his eyes, he spoke weakly:
"Old cow...you eat first."
"Moo~"
The big black cow was stunned, trembling all over. It rejected Chen Xun for the first time and did not listen to him again.
Its eyes gradually turned blood red, and it rushed out, ignoring Chen Xun's shouting.
