Chapter 752 - This Is Crazy
In the north of Huaxia was a mountain range.
The mountains were covered with snow all year round, and it was usually devoid of people.
One day, somewhere in the mountains, the air suddenly rippled like the surface of a pond, and a figure suddenly appeared and fell to the ground.
“Ouch!”
His face hit the ground, and he could not help but cry out in pain.
He got up and straightened his robe. He was a man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties. His face was thin, and there was a sinister look between his brows.
He had a long beard and long hair, and he was dressed in ancient clothes. At a glance, he looked as if he had walked out of a film set.
He rubbed his face and looked around. Then, he frowned.
“The qi is too thin…”
“Those who stayed behind should have all declined or even died out!”
He sneered and revealed a mocking expression.
Then, he flicked his sleeves proudly.
“Haha! The cultivation world must be in a terrible state right now! Now, I can do whatever I want. It was not easy for me to become the trailblazer. I must show off my might.
“Let’s see. About eight or nine hundred years have passed! I wonder how the secular world has become. What’s the current dynasty? I’ll go and investigate!”
He flicked his sleeves and left the mountain happily.
He hummed a tune as he walked, evidently in a very happy mood.
At the foot of the mountain was a road.
A large truck was driving on the road.
The person was stunned when he saw the truck. What was that rectangular thing that could run?
He eventually came to his senses and rubbed his eyes, thinking that his eyes were playing tricks on him.
“Halt, you foul beast!”
He leaped into the middle of the road, in the way of the truck.
“Whoa!”
The driver was shocked. He slammed on the brakes, but it was too late.
The man flew backward in an arc and fell to the ground.
“Oh sh*t! I’ve killed someone!” The driver’s expression changed drastically. Then, he cursed angrily, “Dammit, that lunatic jumped in the way! Does he have a death wish?”
He looked around and saw that there was no one around. He started the truck again and wanted to escape.
That area was an empty wilderness. There were no other cars, let alone any cameras.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, the “corpse” in front of him moved and sat up.
The driver’s eyes widened, and his eyeballs almost popped out.
‘He’s still alive?
‘That’s too damn lucky!’
After the man sat up, he clutched his chest and grimaced in pain. Even though he was a cultivator, his physical body was not that strong. After being hit by the truck, his entire body began to ache.
“Dammit, how dare you hit me!”
He cursed and was about to stand up.
At that moment, the driver started to panic. ‘Oh no! The guy is still alive! What if he asks me for compensation? No, I have to make sure that he’s dead!’
He made up his mind, gritted his teeth, and floored the accelerator.
“Ouch!”
With a miserable cry, that person was sent flying again.
“This is outrageous!”
He was shaking with anger. He had just come out of seclusion, and he was already being tormented by that strange thing. That was too embarrassing.
“What the f*ck! He’s still alive?”
The driver had an incredulous look on his face. Then, he ran over the man with the truck.
The man lay there, his facial muscles twitching.
“Stay down this time!”
The driver moved the truck back and forth many times, as though he was afraid that he could not kill that guy.
The man was sprawled on the road, foaming at his mouth.
After driving away for some distance, the driver looked through the rearview mirror and saw that the person had stopped moving. Then, he hurriedly fled.
The man lay on the ground, motionless. His eyes rolled over, and there was white foam oozing from his mouth. It was a pathetic sight.
After a long time, he finally came to. He wiped his mouth and sat up with a dazed look on his face.
‘What happened to showing off? Why am I bullied by that thing right after I come out?
‘What was that thing?
‘Also, what’s going on with this world? It’s completely different from the world I remembered.’
“This world… seems to be quite dangerous!”
He muttered and even wondered if he had come to the wrong place.
He restrained his arrogant attitude and carefully walked forward.
He saw several more cars as he walked along the road, though he remembered to keep his distance. After carefully observing, he finally understood that the people were driving in those cars.
Those things were like machine-operated beasts. It was quite intricate.
“Wow! How magical!” He exclaimed.
He was even more surprised when he arrived at the county town. He exclaimed in surprise at anything new he saw.
The people in the town were shocked when they saw him. Then, they all revealed looks of disdain.
“Look, that old man is so perverted…”
“Is he cosplaying at such an old age? He looks so shabby!”
That person was stunned. What was “cosplaying?”
He went around town and stood at an intersection. Suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something. He swept his gaze around and eventually landed on a car.
A middle-aged man with a jade pendant around his neck was sitting in the car. The jade pendant was emitting a strong qi aura.
‘It’s an Artifact!’
His eyes instantly lit up. After all, Artifacts had always been very precious items.
He sensed that the man was a mundane person. The man probably dug up the pendant in a stroke of good luck!
He instantly dashed to the side of the car, formed a claw with his right hand, and smashed through the window. He reached inside, grabbed the jade pendant, and pulled it hard.
The person inside was completely stunned. He looked at the guy who was dressed like an ancient with his mouth agape.
“Hahaha! This is a treasure! And it’s a defensive type Artifact too. My trip this time is not in vain!”
The person held the jade pendant in his hand and exclaimed excitedly.
“Hey! What are you doing? Are you crazy? That’s mine. Quickly return it to me!
“Help! Robbery! Someone call the police!”
The person in the car shouted.
Heads poked out from the surrounding cars and looked over.
“He’s a lunatic!”
They discussed in low voices, and someone even called the police.
“Shut up! What are you shouting for? A mundane like you should not possess this. This treasure belongs to cultivators! It’s very precious!” The person stroked his long beard and said.
“Ha, that’s true! It’s indeed a treasure. I spent five million yuan on it. Go and buy one for yourself! You don’t have to snatch mine!”
The person in the car said angrily.
As he said that, he reached out to grab the jade pendant.
The man was stunned. “Wait? You bought this?”
“You don’t say! It’s five million yuan each. How many do you want? I’ll get them for you!”
The man holding the jade pendant was stunned.
‘This isn’t right!’
Shouldn’t Artifacts be precious items? Even in ancient times, Artifacts were not common enough to be sold. Now, even mundane people could buy Artifacts if they had the money.
‘This… is crazy!’
