Chapter 17 The Secret to Longevity: Never Mind Your Own Business

The next day, Chen Xun said goodbye to Ning Si. They were going back to the blacksmith shop, which was their real home in Panning City.

A few days later, Chen Xun smiled and opened the door. The room was filled with dust and he was choked.

He looked at the empty position and said softly: "Mr. Sun, we are back."

"Moo~" The big black cow also barked twice.

"Old Niu, get to work and clean up."

"Moo!"

One person and one cow started to work, cleaning and cleaning everything. The whole blacksmith shop looked brand new and very neat.

Neighbors passing by were shocked when they saw the door of the blacksmith shop opened and shouted: "Is it brother Chen Xun who is back? I am your Aunt Li."

"Aunt Li, it's me."

A loud roar came from the blacksmith shop in response, but Aunt Li was so happy that she quickly kicked her feet and told the neighbors that Brother Chen Xun was back.

Chen Xun, who had not seen each other for more than ten years, came back unexpectedly. He was a good blacksmith. Some of the common people's iron tools were still intact after being used, and they were made by Chen Xun.

Neighbors came in droves, some familiar to Chen Xun and some unfamiliar faces, all telling him how bad the nearby blacksmith shop was, how high the price was, and it had to be you.

"Hey, brother Chen Xun, why haven't you changed at all? You feel a lot younger."

Aunt Li looked Chen Xun up and down, exclaiming that she was much older than before.

"Haha, I went to study medicine as a teacher and know how to maintain health."

Chen Xun explained, looking at Aunt Li, "The most important thing is to have an optimistic attitude. The longer you live, the younger you will be."

"Brother Chen Xun, really?"

"That's not true. You'll know when you get under your old man's bed."

"Hahaha……"

The surrounding neighbors laughed, and Aunt Li turned red with embarrassment and spat: "You're not serious." After that, she ran away quickly.

"Okay, everyone, come back tomorrow so I can get ready."

"Okay, brother Chen Xun, I wish you good luck with your business."

"That's right, I'll definitely come to support you."

…

The neighbors were extremely enthusiastic. Chen Xun held up his hands and smiled, his mentality was completely different from before.

When the blacksmith shop owners in the surrounding streets heard about Chen Xun's return, they all yelled, "God damn it, lower the price, lower the price!"

However, Chen Xun's blacksmith shop was only open for half a day every day, and he would no longer take orders. He was too busy, so he just needed to make a living.

They are tinkering with medicinal materials in the backyard at this time. This essence of all things can increase the age of the medicinal materials even if they are removed from the soil. It is extremely magical.

"Old Niu, I found a very fundamental problem."

Chen Xun said seriously that he had been thinking about this issue for a long time.

"Moo?" Big Black Bull was confused.

"Do we feel that there are some bottlenecks on the second level of Qi Refining? It is always difficult to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It takes time to slowly polish it."

"Moo."

"Do you think that as long as you have enough time, you can continue to improve your cultivation? You can always polish it up?"

"Moo."

"Haha, old cow, you are so naive."

Chen Xun smiled faintly, "This spiritual root is talent. It may be possible to polish it during the Qi refining period, but not necessarily during the foundation building period."

"Moo?"

"If there is no external assistance, that is, chance, we may be stuck in the realm and be unable to break through in our lifetime. This is talent, which cannot be polished by time."

"Moo? Moo!"

The big black bull exclaimed, the more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

Chen Xun thought of those world-famous people in his previous life. Some things cannot be caught up with time. No matter how long ordinary people live, they can only increase their knowledge, experience, etc.

But he may never reach the heights of those geniuses. This is talent, and it is also a cruel reality.

The most unfortunate thing is that Chen Xun and Da Hei Niu are such immortal ordinary people. They looked at each other deeply and suddenly hugged each other.

Behind the affectionate embrace, they all had evil smiles on their lips: "So you are a noob too."

"But we have to be careful. You see, we didn't do anything in the mountains, so we won't offend anyone."

Chen Xun solemnly said that this matter was full of doubts, "The situation is not right, don't be curious, just stay out of it like we are now."

"Moo!"

The big black cow looked at Chen Xun with admiring eyes. When they were still in the village, the villagers asked Old Man Li the secret of longevity. He said that I never meddle in other people's business.

It didn't understand it at the time, but now it has experienced it personally. The excitement in the big black cow's heart is all based on experience.

"If I follow your brother Xun, why don't we make clear arrangements?"

"Moo!"

Da Hei Niu was completely convinced, Chen Xun was really smart.

"As I said before, we won't go to the Ningyun Mountains even if there is a ten thousand-year elixir. Don't risk your life to seize the opportunity. Stay calm."

"Moo~~" The big black cow rubbed against Chen Xun.

Chen Xun smiled slightly, patted its bull's head, and said: "We have the essence of all things, and our strength will gradually increase. We don't need to seek revenge from anyone, so don't affect our happy life."

The big black cow nodded heavily. It was indeed a bit impetuous after practicing "Qi Refining Art".

"Old Niu, don't put the cart before the horse. Even if you reach the highest level of immortality, live forever, and destroy the world with just one thought, you still have to live a life."

Chen Xun had already noticed that Da Hei Niu was a little impetuous, "The process we have gone through is the most important, not the bullshit state. At worst, if we are unlucky, who is afraid of whom?"

"Moo moo moo!!"

The big black cow nodded its head like a chicken pecking at rice, realizing it.

"Perhaps we are disliked by some great power, wiped out with one hand, and die together. Then we can continue to be together in the next life."

Chen Xun said in a bachelor's manner, with this mentality, he would be dead and his eggs would be thrown into the sky, and immortality would be for free anyway.

After hearing this, the big black cow was enlightened and hurriedly ran to Chen Xun. Maybe a powerful man would come next moment, and it would have to die with Chen Xun.

"Hahaha..." Chen Xun laughed and kept pushing the big black cow away, and it kept crowding in again.

…

Half a year later, a shocking loud noise from the Ningyun Mountains broke the tranquility of Panning City. Countless immortal cultivators stood on the sky, which could be seen even in the city, like a UFO.

"Damn it, old cow, come out and watch the trapeze artist."

Chen Xun shouted quickly, grabbed a handful of melon seeds on the table, lifted a bench and came out.

"Moo!" The big black cow jumped out and ate the melon seeds. Its eyes looked toward the sky in the distance. It was really awesome.

There were many people on the street. Neighbors all came out to see the immortal. Some people knelt on the ground and kept praying for blessings.

Chen Xun and Da Heiniu's eyesight is much better than these common people, and they have built-in telescope functions.

"Old Niu, what do you mean, is this a fight?"

Chen Xun sat on the bench, munching melon seeds leisurely, "Why are we all standing together? Why don't we form a formation or something?"

"Moo?" The big black cow didn't understand what was going on and continued to eat melon seeds while lying on the ground.

Above the sky, a rainbow light flashed, and violent explosions resounded across the sky, scaring countless people to the ground, muttering something unknown.

"That's awesome. This must be at least the foundation building stage."

Chen Xun exclaimed, the melon seeds were getting more and more fragrant. "Old Niu, if you said that we can fly in the future, wouldn't that mean you are so awesome?"

"Moo!" The big black cow was furious. It now understood what this sentence meant, and Chen Xun was teasing it.

It immediately snatched Chen Xun's melon seeds, and Chen Xun quickly opened its mouth and snatched the melon seeds back.

The battle in the distant sky suddenly became fierce. Various spells and rainbow lights continued to shine, and even immortal cultivators fell. It was extremely exciting.

Chen Xun and Da Hei Niu couldn't help but applaud. This was much more comfortable than watching a sideshow.

"Oh my God, each of them looks like a human-shaped weapon."

Chen Xun opened his mouth wide, it was really an eye-opener. "No matter how good a mortal's martial arts is, the spell will come like a laser. Who can withstand this?"

"Moo!" The big black cow also opened his mouth and echoed, which was too outrageous.

Countless people in the city are in awe. This is the power of immortals, the ultimate height that mortals cannot reach.

The immortal war came and went quickly. Various kinds of escaping lights appeared in the sky, which lasted for half a day and then gradually disappeared.

"It's gone so soon. I haven't seen enough yet, hey."

"Moo~~"

Chen Xun and Da Hei Niu are still not satisfied. They can watch it for at least a month, which is much more exciting than the TV series.

"Old Niu, go to work."

"Moo!"

Life has to go on, and this fight has nothing to do with them, but Chen Xun has begun to imagine that if he enters the world of immortality in the future, it will be quite good to watch other people fight every day.
