Chapter 123 Sublimation of State of Mind
Hearing the other party's question, Jiang Hao said with a calm smile:
"You're joking. I started splitting firewood when I was four or five years old. It was very difficult when I was weak."
Right here, in this location.
Jiang Hao put the hatchet on the firewood, weighed it lightly twice, and then fixed it a little harder.
Immediately after two heavy blows, the firewood was split open.
"Four or five years old?" The old man exclaimed:
"You can't even hold a knife?"
"It was very difficult at that time." Jiang Hao said with a smile.
More than ten years have passed, and he will feel sorry for what happened back then, but he doesn't have any hatred.
Apart from remembering that his stepmother scolded him, he didn't even remember that the other party treated him badly.
Not only that, but he was about to forget what his stepmother looked like.
"It seems that you were born in poverty." The old man couldn't believe it.
Jiang Hao cracked the firewood and felt that he was back when he was a child.
Too bad I don't remember that much.
As a cultivator, his memory should be good, but he hadn't practiced before leaving.
It took a lot of time to improve later.
As we grow older, the past is constantly forgotten.
"Are you here to inquire about the Jiang family?" The old man looked at Jiang Hao and asked curiously:
"What is your relationship with them?"
heard the words.
Jiang Hao paused, and he looked at the old man in front of him.
Although he is a little old, he is in good spirits and has a kind of temperament on his body.
He should have been a man of prestige when he was young.
After hesitating for a moment, he said truthfully:
"Their son."
"Son?" The old man was a little shocked:
"It shouldn't be. When I bought the house from him, I didn't hear that he had a son."
"Yeah." Jiang Hao nodded and said relaxedly:
"When I was five years old, I was sold away. Today, because I happened to be back in Luocheng, I wanted to see them."
The old man looked at Jiang Hao in surprise, opened his mouth but still couldn't speak.
Jiang Hao cracked some more firewood, and the old man said:
"When did you leave?"
"Seventeen years ago." Jiang Hao replied.
"I bought this house sixteen years ago." The old man thought for a moment and continued:
"I heard they are going to move to another place."
A year after I was sold? Is it because I am worried that I will survive after entering the magic gate and come back for revenge? Jiang Hao felt bitter.
I can't do this myself.
Even if it's not easy to live in Tianyinzong, it's not like this.
"Did they say where to move?" Jiang Hao asked.
"No." The old man shook his head and said:
"It's nothing more than some surrounding towns. If you want to see them, you can look around."
Jiang Hao lowered his eyebrows and did not respond.
I came out with Hong Yuye this time, and it was impossible to walk in the surrounding towns.
It is very lucky to be here.
I was in the magic gate and offended many powerful enemies.
It is a luxury to go out safely, and now no one knows that he still has relatives in the secular world.
It's not good if it is discovered.
This time I am not worried because of Hong Yuye, her strength can shield all dangers.
"I remember it was a famine seventeen years ago, right? The whole city was sad at that time." The old man said again.
"Well, I have some impressions." Jiang Hao nodded.
Looking at Jiang Hao, the old man knew more or less how the other party felt, so he asked:
"Do you hate them?"
"No, it's just a bit resentful." Jiang Hao replied softly.
"That's really rare. I would hate to die for another person." The old man smiled and said.
Jiang Hao didn't say much, just splitting firewood quietly.
After a long time he split the firewood.
According to the past, he could find a place to eat.
It's an easy moment.
"I'm leaving." Jiang Hao got up and said politely.
"I'll see you off." The old man got up and sent Jiang Hao out.
Along the way, Jiang Hao kept recalling.
Recalling the memory of Mohu.
He can find familiarity from many places, but he can't remember the specifics.
Finally, he stepped out of the gate one step at a time, feeling inexplicably lost.
After bowing to the two elders, Jiang Hao strode away.
After walking for a while, he heard the sound of the door closing behind him.
That's why he stopped, and turned his head to look at the door behind him.
This is a somewhat old house, which seems to have witnessed the vicissitudes of time, and for a moment he felt that he had returned to seventeen years ago.
That year he looked back like this, and what he saw was the closed door.
Back then he didn't think his family would be gone, but now...
Turn around again, and there is no home anymore.
Won't be coming back either.
It has nothing to do with him here.
Some reluctance, some disappointment in my heart, nowhere to rest.
In the end Jiang Hao bowed and bowed, this bow was parting.
After getting up, he turned and left.
Have you let go?
No.
But it also settled one thing.
The past can be recalled, but the road is always ahead.
At this moment, Jiang Hao's heart seemed to be radiant, and the power in his body was surging.
The state of mind sublimates, and the cultivation base soars.
But in the blink of an eye, he was not far away from breaking through the primordial spirit.
Just half an hour is better than half a year of training his mind in the Spirit Medicine Garden.
He somewhat understood that the change of mood was not loneliness.
It is a kind of resonance, calm and transparent.
Only when you pick it up can you put it down.
To have, to understand.
Only when you lose can you understand.
Leaving the residential area, Jiang Hao returned to the avenue again.
There are people coming and going on the street, and there are many shouts.
Just now, the state of mind is clear, it seems to be isolated from the world, and now it seems to be entering the secular world for the first time.
"What a wonderful feeling."
Laughing at himself, Jiang Hao planned to go back to find Hong Yuye.
Passing by a tea set shop, he stopped suddenly.
After thinking about it carefully, the tea set in the inn seems to be very ordinary, and I don't know how many people have used it.
Will red rain leaves be used?
After hesitating for a while, he walked into the tea set shop.
"What kind of tea set does the guest officer want?" the shopkeeper asked immediately.
Jiang Hao looked around, and finally saw the light red tea set.
The color is transparent and not so conspicuous, the workmanship is as fine as art, and there are not many patterns but it is very suitable.
"How much?" He pointed to the pair of tea sets and asked.
Fifteen taels.
Jiang Hao bought this tea set after receiving all kinds of compliments from the other party.
On the way back, he smelled a fresh fragrance.
It is the taste of tea.
Looking back, it was a very ordinary pastry shop.
I wanted to come here to eat when I was a child, but I never got my wish.
After hesitating, he bought a little.
It's a childhood dream come true.
Holding the object, Jiang Hao left shortly after he suddenly looked to the side alley, and then something flew over.
is a rock.
Jiang Hao caught it under control from the air.
Make sure there is no danger before putting it in your hand and examining it carefully.
After feeling that there was a problem but finding nothing, he chose to activate the supernatural power.
"Identification."
[Code: The stone used by Daqian Shenzong to transmit information, crush it and put it in water to see the content. 】
"Great Thousand Divine Sect?"
Jiang Hao was a little puzzled.
What did Daqian Shenzong contact him for?
How did he get targeted?
Confused, Jiang Hao returned to the inn.
Maybe you can ask Hong Yuye.
"Bring me a basin of water to Room No. 1 on Yunshang."
After giving orders to the waiter in the inn, Jiang Hao immediately came to the door of Hong Yuye's room.
At this point, the door opens automatically.
Jiang Hao saw Hong Yuye sitting in front of the window looking at him, and said with a half-smile:
"I thought you escaped."
