Bring some shock to the world of cultivating immortals
Chapter 961 The So-Called Beauty
Next to the campfire, Yun Zhongshu gently placed a piece of sweet potato next to the fire and watched the flames lick the hard-earned food.
The blizzard still did not stop, and the howling wind carried the cold snow light, sweeping everything outside the cave. Yun Zhongshu raised his head and looked at the young man sitting cross-legged at the entrance of the cave. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, but more of a numbness.
It's also normal...
It was obviously extremely cold weather, minus 30 degrees Celsius, but the boy was shirtless, casually exposing himself to the blizzard. However, not only was he not affected by the cold, but his face was ruddy, and it seemed as if heat was constantly steaming out of his body.
If Yun Zhongshu had come to this era for the first time, she would have been surprised. But after witnessing the young man tearing apart a four-headed land dragon with his own hands, Yun Zhongshu realized that she might not have come from ancient times.
But it was the barbaric era.
As a modern man, Yun Zhongshu had never seen such a horrifying creature in any ancient books. It had four heads, twelve claws, and a body as big as a rock. Its brown scales could even shatter the crystallization of modern civilization. A crossbow could not leave any mark on its body. It even possessed enough wisdom to allow it to learn "mock".
Yun Zhongshu believed that if this kind of creature really appeared on Earth, there would be no record of it.
At the same time, the young man who used only his bare hands to tear off four dragon heads from small to large and crushed their hearts would not remain unknown.
With a sigh, Yun Zhongshu took out a fire tong and picked up the roasted sweet potato. She endured the heat and cut the sweet potato in half. Holding the two yellow sweet potatoes, she walked to the boy and asked after hesitating for a moment:
"Do you...want to eat?"
Perhaps it was the only consolation from God to Yun Zhongshu, the poor time traveler, that the first person she met after she appeared in this wild and strange world was a good person who took her to this rare "safe house" and shared haystacks and food with her. Most importantly, he spoke modern Chinese, and there was no barrier between the two of them.
"It doesn't have to be this way."
Although it was modern Chinese, the boy still spoke in a somewhat literary manner. He wore coarse cloth trousers, and his exposed upper body was engraved with strange totems with unknown dyes. He opened his eyes, turned his back to Yun Zhongshu, and said in a calm tone: "We no longer need to eat to survive."
Yun Zhongshu looked at the boy sitting cross-legged in the snowstorm and couldn't help but wrap herself in her down jacket. This down jacket, which she spent more than three thousand yuan on, had a cut, and the down had leaked out, causing its warmth-keeping effect to be reduced a lot, but it was still one of the few clothes she had that could keep her warm.
"Chi, are you practicing?"
Although Yun Zhongshu didn't want to disturb the young man named "Chi" in front of her, she really wanted to know more about this strange and barbaric world. Only in this way could she find her way home.
She really missed home and her parents, but Yun Zhongshu didn't want to travel through time. For her, Earth was her real home. As a graduate tutor with a doctorate degree, her parents were still alive and her family was well-off. How could Yun Zhongshu travel to this strange world with four dragons?
"it's not true."
The young man still had that calm tone: "Practice is meaningless. All I did was to keep my mind focused and not let myself collapse."
Yun Zhongshu stood there in silence, not knowing what to say for a moment.
She didn't understand why she had to come to a wild and alien world to discuss her true nature and self with a savage, when other people in the novels traveled through time to become kings, generals, or to have love affairs.
Is this really a time travel?
Yes, this is time travel.
One year later, Yun Zhongshu stood at the entrance of the cave, wearing only a short-sleeved shirt in the snow, feeling no cold at all. She raised her head with a complicated expression, looking at Chi who was fighting with the nine-headed monster bird in the sky, and sighed.
What a strange world.
The figure disappeared in the blizzard. After stepping into the air, Yun Zhongshu clasped his hands together and stretched them out. In an instant, the originally frenzied giant bird was nailed to the spot by an invisible force. The young man named Chi shouted "Come!" and chopped down the last head of the nine-headed giant bird with the stone axe in his hand.
Soon, the arrogant nine-headed bird was broken into bones and flesh and piled on the ground. After doing all this with ease, Chi looked at Yun Zhongshu and nodded, praising him: "Very good, you have learned to control yourself in just one year, you are very talented."
"Hey."
Yun Zhongshu just sighed. This was her personality. She always had a bit of a bad attitude, but she never forgot what she was going to do. She just felt it was troublesome. Looking at the meat and bones on the ground, Yun Zhongshu said with a headache, "Are we going to the market again?"
"I have to go."
The young man said solemnly: "Helping each other is the way to survive, and it is also the basis of propriety, righteousness, and integrity. There are still many old and young in the tribe, and this meat is enough for them to live well for a while."
One year was enough time for Yun Zhongshu to gain a preliminary understanding of the structure of this world. It could be said that this was an era that was both civilized and primitive.
Primitive because there is almost no technological development in this world. According to Chi, they have lived in this world for thousands of years but have not developed science and technology. Even the cornerstone technology of drilling wood to make fire was brought over by Yun Zhongshu.
But this world is very civilized, at least these people are very civilized.
These people are the most moral people Yun Zhongshu has ever seen. Their selfishness is based on the lovely thoughts of satisfying the public. For example, Chi, his strength makes him full of responsibility. Living in this snowy land is also his desire to catch more prey and satisfy the desire of the young and old in the tribe to eat meat. But he also has his own selfishness. Chi likes to gnaw the meat on the bones, so every time he secretly leaves a piece of meat on the bone, and then with that attitude full of courtesy, righteousness, and shame, quietly asks Yun Zhongshu to help him grill the meat, and also says thank you.
Yun Zhongshu and Chi had been to the tribe once, and what she didn't expect was that the people in the tribe were very enthusiastic towards her, or towards everyone. On the faces of these primitive but civilized people, Yun Zhongshu saw a kind of expression she had never seen before, just like the harmonious society described in the Peach Blossom Spring, everyone has amazing and beautiful qualities.
Then, Yun Zhongshu also understood the structure of this world and why these people could survive in this world full of monsters.
Self.
This is the source of their power. As long as they know their true self, understand their true self, these people will burst out with incomprehensible power. It is precisely because of this ability, which can be called the power of thinking, that Chi and his people have created a place to survive in this barbaric area and even planted rice and corn, which makes Yun Zhongshu puzzled.
Is this scientific?
This unscientific.
After he also awakened his true self, Yun Zhongshu felt relieved.
Her ability is called "Fixing Soul", which is simple and easy to understand, that is, it can freeze most creatures with self-awareness. This ability makes Chi admire her very much, and he invites her to become a "hunter" to hunt meat for the tribe together.
Of course, what surprised Yun Zhongshu the most was that in that tribe where everyone was dedicated, those people did not think that Yun Zhongshu should hunt for them as a matter of course, and even Yun Zhongshu herself always thought so. They felt that Yun Zhongshu should get her own reward and satisfy her appetite first before providing meat for the tribe.
This is not xenophobia, but a way to gently integrate Yun Zhongshu into the tribe. After placing the meat of the nine-headed strange bird on the cart, Yun Zhongshu looked at the bustling "town" in front of her, and a sense of belonging that she herself did not realize was already in her eyes.
The arrival of Yun Zhongshu not only brought a "hunter", but also made the tribe understand the existence of technology. In just one year, Yun Zhongshu brought many things, such as wheels, fire and mud bricks.
It was not the usual way of traveling through ancient times and using technology to reach the pinnacle, where one person would respond to a hundred calls. Yun Zhongshu did all this just to make the lives of these pure-minded people better, nothing more.
"Cloud baby."
At this moment, an old man came up to Yun Zhongshu with a cane, put a bag of candy in Yun Zhongshu's hand kindly, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work recently. When will you come back to stay for a while?"
"Granny An, I'll wait for a while."
Yun Zhongshu glanced at Chi, who was at a loss as he was surrounded by children, smiled and said, "Chi plans to catch more sweet pigs before the New Year so that everyone can have a happy New Year. It will be a lot of trouble for him to do it alone, so I have to help him."
"Good boy, I thank you on behalf of Chi."
Granny An looked at Yun Zhongshu gently, her voice reassuring, "He's a good kid."
"He's also a fool."
Sighing, Yun Zhongshu could not help but complain: "He didn't want to be treated when he was injured but insisted on exercising, saying that pain is a testament to his true self. He would hold the bones and chew them when he ate. He refused to eat more corn rice and even hid the rice secretly without telling anyone. He also never wore a shirt and said that being cold and cold shows his true self. I think he is a fool, and he is still his true self..."
Seeing Yun Zhongshu complaining, Granny An smiled even more. After a moment, she held Yun Zhongshu's hand and said to her, "Then I'll trouble Yun Wa to help me take care of this idiot. By the way, you said before that you are from Earth, right?"
After hearing what Grandma An said, Yun Zhongshu's eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, Grandma An, do you have any clues?"
On the second day after arriving at the tribe, Yun Zhongshu asked the leader of the tribe, Granny An, about the Earth. She then realized that she was not the only one who had come to this world. Many "aliens" had come here before her. However, some of them failed to awaken their true selves and died in the end, while others were not from Earth.
"A few days ago, a little girl appeared in the tribe. She was well-dressed and beautiful, but she was in a daze and refused to communicate with us. She just kept saying something about going back to Earth. Alas... what a poor child."
As for these outsiders, Granny An did not want them to stay in the tribe, even though the tribe was short of manpower. When faced with Yun Zhongshu's question, Granny An only said one sentence.
"You must be homesick."
After learning that there was a time traveler who had a high probability of having the same experience as herself, Yun Zhongshu suddenly became excited. She quickly asked Granny An, "Granny An, can you let me meet this person?"
"Right on my mind."
Grandma An smiled, then led Yun Zhongshu to the best tile-roofed house in the tribe. When she opened the door, Yun Zhongshu's breathing stopped for a moment.
What a nice view.
The woman was very beautiful, but not gaudy, just like a blooming peach blossom that made people intoxicated, but her elegant and quiet temperament made her not eye-catchingly gorgeous. She sat quietly on the bed, with only endless loss and sadness in her eyes.
"you····"
Yun Zhongshu looked at the woman and asked in a somewhat dry voice, "What's your name?"
As if she had noticed something, the woman raised her head, her eyes reflecting ripples of water. She looked at Yun Zhongshu, and the voice as refreshing as a clear spring slowly sounded.
"Zhou Taoyao."
Zhou Taoyao traveled through time later than Yun Zhongshu. Yun Zhongshu traveled through time from a cave in Ma'anshan in 2024, while Zhou Taoyao was sent to this world by an explosion in 2025.
After Yun Zhongshu opened Zhou Taoyao's heart, the two established an unbreakable friendship.
In this world, Zhou Taoyao and Yun Zhongshu naturally have the strongest connection. They are from the same world and country, and they are of similar age and have compatible personalities.
Compared to Yun Zhongshu, who is a bit of a slacker but kindhearted, Zhou Taoyao is the most perfect "sister". Her gentleness and strictness complement each other. When facing the children in the tribe, Zhou Taoyao can always convince them and let them learn all kinds of knowledge and culture. At the same time, Zhou Taoyao also quickly awakened her true self, an ability called "psychic".
Zhou Taoyao stayed in the tribe and taught the children. Yun Zhongshu and Chi continued to hunt, but she would often come back to the tribe to find Zhou Taoyao. Over time, many people got used to this kind of life.
Bai Yu doesn't think so.
On January 2025, 1, on New Year's Day, the miserable worker Bai Yu traveled to this barbaric world. As a technician in a construction unit, he saw at a glance that the construction technology in this world was ridiculously poor.
Then, he became a famous civil engineering master in the tribe. He was very sad about this. On Earth, he worked as a mortar worker until he died. After traveling through time, he still had to lead a group of people to work as mortar workers. But the only thing that made him happy was that everyone in the tribe respected him very much. Even the girls other than the two fellow villagers were more or less interested in him.
Later, Bai Yu also awakened his true self, and his ability was to shape clay.
That’s right, it’s quick puttying, fixed puttying, and a hundred ways of solidification after puttying.
The innate earth and wood holy body is here.
Everyone thought that this kind of life would continue, even if they could not go back home, even if Zhou Taoyao would cry unwillingly when she was alone.
Until Zhou Li saw a faceless man in yellow clothes slowly walking into the entrance of the tribe.
He watched, listened, and worked.
Satisfied. (End of this chapter)
