Chapter 3 A Strange Dream
Yang Che felt that he had a very strange dream.
In the dream, he turned into a black ball of light half the size of a fist, and roamed freely in a hazy world.
Suddenly, a green ball of light rushed in aggressively.
This green ball of light was several times larger than him, but the light was very dim. When it saw the black ball of light that Yang Che had turned into, it was a little stunned and seemed to be surprised.
But soon, the green ball of light pounced on it fiercely and began to bite the black ball of light that Yang Che had turned into.
Yang Che was not to be outdone, and he also went up to bite it fiercely. Although the green ball of light was larger in size and quickly surrounded Yang Che, the ferocity of the black ball of light that Yang Che had turned into was far greater than that of the green ball of light.
For a while, no one could do anything to anyone, and a tug-of-war began.
Gradually, as time went on, the black ball of light that Yang Che had turned into became more and more ferocious, and slowly began to gain the upper hand.
The green light ball felt something was wrong and was shocked again, but it seemed very unwilling to give up and fought with Yang Che again. However, after Yang Che swallowed a part of the green light ball, he tasted the wonderful taste in it and became more ferocious and unstoppable.
Finally, the green light ball realized that it was no match for Yang Che and began to flee out of this hazy world.
At this time, Yang Che had only one thought, that is, he must not let the green light ball escape no matter what. Under his strong thought, this hazy world suddenly changed, and a faint arc of light flashed, which completely locked the green light ball inside.
The black light ball that Yang Che turned into was overjoyed when he saw this, and quickly swallowed the green light ball completely.
Then Yang Che seemed to be unsatisfied, and hoped that the same light ball could break in and let him eat enough, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement in this hazy world...
After an unknown period of time, Yang Che felt a shudder all over his body and finally opened his eyes faintly.
His body was extremely tired and weak, especially his head was unusually dizzy, which made him a little confused.
Soon, he woke up and remembered the green light ball that flew out of the flower before he fell into a coma, and the scene of biting and devouring the green light ball in his dream.
Although Yang Che could not understand everything that happened, he was sure that the green light ball was definitely not kind to him and had bad intentions.
"Flower demon?"
Yang Che called out softly, but there was no response for a long time.
Yang Che's heart suddenly cooled down. He struggled to stand up, and then he found that the strange flower had withered without knowing when.
Originally, he ate one of the seven black fruits, leaving six, and now all of them became dry and shriveled, leaving only a layer of dry skin.
And the seven leaves were even more yellow and fell off, without any color.
"Flower demon?"
"Flower demon!"
...
Yang Che suddenly roared angrily.
But in this cave, there was no sound of the previous flower demon.
Yang Che had guessed that the green ball of light was most likely the flower demon.
He didn't know why all this happened. He was confused and even afraid.
But more of it was anger.
He felt that the flower demon was good to him, and he was full of gratitude and trust for the flower demon, but in the end, the flower demon had been deceiving him and had been trying to do something bad to him!
"Why, why, why..."
At this moment, Yang Che's young heart was once again greatly traumatized.
He sat woodenly on the stone bench and was in a daze for a long time.
After that, Yang Che stood up with a cold look and began to search the cave again carefully.
At the same time, he had a question in his mind. Although he had successfully cultivated the first level of Zi Yuan Jue, it seemed that except for some strange airflow in his dantian that he didn't know what it was used for, his strength did not increase significantly. So, was he considered a cultivator?
Unfortunately, he couldn't read. Once the flower demon died, he couldn't continue to practice the Zi Yuan Jue.
Yang Che made up his mind that after he got out, he had to learn to read and write first.
There were two layers of storage stone grids, and nothing else was found. Yang Che came to the skeleton unconsciously.
He reached out and touched it, and the clothes on the skeleton and the skeleton itself turned into ashes and disappeared.
"Huh?" Yang Che found that there was an open secret compartment where the skeleton sat.
There was a white flake jade and a palm-sized square box of unknown material.
Yang Che took the white flake jade in his hand and studied it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what it was.
Then he opened the square box and found that it was full of embroidery needles?
It shouldn't be an embroidery needle, it is much thicker than an embroidery needle, and there is a mysterious luster flowing on it.
After searching carefully for many times, Yang Che didn't find anything else, so he wrapped up three yellowed ancient books, a black scroll, four jade bottles, a flake jade and a box full of unknown fine needles with underwear.
Finally, after taking another look at the withered seven-leaf flower, Yang Che first went to the collapsed tunnel entrance. After finding that there was no possibility of going up, he had to return to the cave and walk down along the underground river.
Previously, the flower demon had vaguely mentioned that this underground river flowed into a canyon. I think there should be a way out.
…
When Yang Che finally walked out of Wanglong Mountain after twists and turns from the canyon and looked at the cloudless sky, for a moment, he was a little confused about where to go.
He originally planned to go directly to the town to learn to read and write, and not return to Yangzhuang Village for the time being.
But when he thought about the things he brought, if they were discovered by someone with ulterior motives, it would be bad.
And he was penniless and had nothing to do in the town.
But if he returned to Yangzhuang Village, he would definitely arouse the suspicion of the villagers after being "missing" for more than two months.
Especially Yang Hu, who would definitely ask questions.
If he could read, he would definitely not go anywhere, but practice in the mountains until he was able to avenge his grandfather.
After thinking about it, Yang Che decided to go back to Yangzhuang Village first. After all, he felt safer in a familiar place.
He waited until nightfall and quietly buried the things in the bag in a very inconspicuous barren weeds outside the village. Then he returned to the village alone and walked towards the broken earth house.
Before he got close to the earth house, a dog barked suddenly.
It was the dog of Yang Hu's family who heard the noise and started barking.
"Who?" Yang Hu pushed open the door and walked out with a shining axe.
"It's me." Yang Che said coldly.
Hearing Yang Che's voice, Yang Hu was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Yang Che? You are still alive? Where have you been for the past two months? I thought you died outside."
Yang Hu's voice was very indifferent and indifferent. In his eyes, Yang Che was not even as good as his watchdog.
So he didn't care whether Yang Che was dead or alive, but because of his face in the village, as long as Yang Che was in the village, he would keep Yang Che alive, so that others would not find out that he occupied a few acres of thin land in Yang Che's family.
Yang Che was too lazy to say a word to Yang Hu, and walked straight into his broken earth house, lying directly on the dry and hard wooden bed, and fell asleep.
Yang Hu's eyes were spitting fire, but Yang Che always had this cold attitude towards him. Even if he beat and scolded Yang Che every day and gave him a meal every two days, Yang Che never changed this attitude.
"Humph, it's good that he didn't die. I can still make a lot of money this time." Yang Hu snorted coldly and turned back into the house.
After Yang Che returned to the village, he behaved as usual for several days without showing any abnormality.
However, late one night, he quietly went to the desolate weedy land, brought back the things buried there and hid them in the broken earth house.
Strangely enough, since Yang Che came back, Yang Hu actually brought him food every day for the first time.
On the fifth day, he just got up and walked out of the earth house, and saw a fierce-looking stranger coming to Yang Hu's house.
