Chapter 1456

"Is this the place where Cai Zhuoxia grew up?"

Xiao Hua had a very good impression of Cai Zhuoxia, a female cultivator who had both perseverance and endured humiliation. Looking at this small town with beautiful mountains and limpid waters, he couldn't help but feel a trace of curiosity.

Descending from midair, Xiao Hua walked on a rather wide road and slowly walked towards the small town.

Outside the small town were some strange stone sculptures and rockery. The stone sculptures were in all kinds of strange shapes. There were old cows with their heads down plowing the fields, village women with their breasts exposed while nursing their children, and even a group of children of all shapes and sizes. They were either holding slingshots, branches, or little squirrels in their hands as they walked forward happily.

The rockery was also strange. Some were big, some were small, some were tall, some were short, some were entwined with vines, some had flowing water.

Before even entering the town, Xiao Hua was already attracted by these things that he had never seen before.

"Young man … is this your first time in my Luyang Town?" A gentle voice sounded from beside a stone statue lying on the ground and looking up at the sky.

When Xiao Hua turned his head to look, he saw an old man about sixty years old with a face full of hardships. He held a pipe in his hand and slowly stood up from beside the stone statue.

"Greetings, old man!"

That old man admittedly didn't have any cultivation and looked like an ordinary farmer. However, Xiao Hua still cupped his hands in greeting and said: "This humble one … this humble one has indeed come to Luyang Town for the first time."

"Oh ~ are you looking for someone?

Or are you just passing by? "

That old man took a puff of his pipe and blew out a faint cloud of smoke from his mouth and nose. He asked very casually.

Xiao Hua said with a smile: "Even if I'm looking for someone, I'm also just passing by!"

Then, he looked around and asked: "May I know why there are so many stone statues and rockery placed outside Luyang Town?

Some of the towns I've been to didn't have such decorations! "

"Hey, young man, you don't sound very old. The roads you've walked and the places you've been to are quite a few!" The old man said with a smile: "Then … what do you think of these stone sculptures?

What do you think of Luyang Town? "

"These stone carvings are vivid and lifelike, recording many of the various forms of the secular world. You might not feel anything when you look at them normally, but if you look at them carefully, you will find that there is a deep meaning behind them!"

Xiao Hua thought for a moment and said, "Just like in an ordinary place, the happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy of farming are all reflected, the birth, old age, sickness, and death of people are all displayed!"

"Ah?

Young man … You … Could it be that you're looking for Lu Yang's Cai Clan? "The old man was shocked and asked in a low voice.

"Sir, I am indeed here to look for the Cai Family!

I wonder how Elder can tell? "Xiao Hua asked curiously.

"You can tell?

Hehe, young man, look at this old man's eyes. How can this old man see anything? "The old man was still laughing.

Xiao Hua took a closer look. Sure enough, although the old man's eyes were open, his eyes were lifeless. There was no expression at all, not even a trace of movement. This old man was actually blind!

"Elder is wise, to actually be able to find clues from I's voice. I truly admire you!" Xiao Hua praised with a smile.

"It's nothing much. Normally, when people see this old man's stone carvings, they would be affected by the strangeness on the surface. Who would be able to see the inner meaning behind these stone carvings?

Only an expert like Senior Immortal would be able to truly understand what is inside! "

"These were all carved by Elder?" Xiao Hua asked in disbelief.

"En, exactly.

I remember when this old man was forty-two years old, I met with a great disaster. I couldn't see, couldn't do anything, and was extremely dispirited. However, the people of this town were extremely kind and helped this old man in all aspects, giving this old man hope to continue living! "

The old man raised his head and looked into the distance. His emotionless eyes seemed to have spirit: "This old man was originally a stonemason, and didn't have anything to repay the people of this town. Thus, I used twenty years to slowly carve these things!"

"Twenty years?"

Xiao Hua sucked in a breath of cold air and said in shock: "You still can't see, these … How did you complete them?"

"Hehe, nothing else, but perseverance!"

The old man waved his hand and said with a smile: "Immortal Elder is a cultivator, how could you possibly ask such a question?

This old man only carved some stones, while Immortal Elder went against the will of the heavens and pursued the path of immortality. Isn't that the word perseverance? "

Although these words were simple, in Xiao Hua's ears, it was as if he was enlightened. Ever since he entered the middle stage of the fourth layer of Qi Refining, his progress had been somewhat slow. Unconsciously, he became anxious and wanted to find a way to increase his cultivation.

Now that he heard the old man's words, he suddenly realized that although his cultivation was increasing slowly … it was still increasing after all. It was unknown how many times better than when his cultivation didn't increase at all in Shang Huaming!

In fact, compared to Cai Zhuoxia, it was unknown how many times better!

Right now, he already had medicinal pills, top-grade spirit stones, and a complete cultivation method for the Qi Refining realm. As long as he persevered, how could he not reach the peak of Qi Refining?

Even a blind old man could use twenty years to complete something that was difficult for a cultivator, so why couldn't he use twenty years to complete his Qi Refining cultivation?

Xiao Hua even felt that joining the Fu Clan … wasn't a very good choice!

"Thank you for your reminder, Elder!

I have benefited greatly from it! "

Xiao Hua bowed to the ground. With a wave of his hand, he took out a top-grade Parasol Pill and handed it over with a smile: "Old Sir's words are wise words that allowed this poor Daoist to have an epiphany. This is this poor Daoist's precious medicinal pill. If there is anything wrong with Old Sir's body, you can take it.

The old man was greatly surprised and quickly waved his hand: "This old man was just casually chatting with someone. These words have been said to almost everyone who came here.

Immortal Elder isn't the first. This old man is ashamed to accept this kind of immortal pill. I can't accept it, I can't accept it! "

"Grandpa …" At this moment, a childish and clear voice rang out. From behind a stone sculpture in the distance, a seven or eight-year-old girl came out. The girl was somewhat thin and wasn't very tall, but her eyes were beautiful. From afar, she shouted: "Grandpa, are you blindly chatting with others again?"

"Hehe, Mei 'er, how could I?

This is the Immortal Elder from the Cai Clan. Quickly come and greet him! "

The old man looked at the girl and smiled kindly. Then, he said to Xiao Hua: "This is an orphan that this old man picked up a few years ago. I have been raising her by my side."

"Mei 'er greets Elder Immortal Elder!"

Mei 'er bounced over to the old man. She first pulled on the old man's sleeve, then looked at Xiao Hua. Her eyes looked at Xiao Hua's young face a few times before she curiously called out.

"Immortal Elder is Immortal Elder. What Elder Brother!" The old man said strangely.

"That's right. This Immortal Elder looks like an Elder Brother. He looks even younger than the Cai Clan's Elder Sister. If Mei 'er doesn't call him Elder Brother, what should Mei' er call him?" Although Mei 'er was a little shy, she still argued.

"Immortal Elder, please don't blame Mei 'er. Mei' er hasn't seen much of the world!" The old man said with a smile.

"Look at Elder, Mei 'er didn't say anything wrong. What's there to blame?" Xiao Hua said with a smile.

"It's good that Immortal Elder doesn't blame me."

The old man nodded his head: "It's rare for Immortal Elder to accompany this old man and talk so much. Mei 'er, this Immortal Elder wants to go to the Cai Clan. You take Immortal Elder there!"

"Me?"

Mei 'er was stunned and said: "Immortal Elder's home is very far from here. Mei' er only went with Elder Sister's servant. Going by myself … is impossible!"

The old man took out a few copper coins from his sleeve and said: "Find a donkey cart or something and let them take you there!"

"Then I'll go by myself. Grandpa, this money is for tomorrow's meal …" Mei 'er said carefully.

Xiao Hua smiled and said: "Elder, don't worry. I will let Mei 'er lead the way. Naturally, I will pay for the cart!"

"En ~" The old man felt that his thoughts were seen through by Xiao Hua. He was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Mei 'er, listen to Immortal Elder's orders and serve Immortal Elder well!"

"Yes, Grandpa. Don't worry!

Big Brother Immortal Elder, let's go this way! "Mei 'er didn't understand the old man's meaning, but she still obediently replied.

"Elder, let's part here. I'm leaving!" Xiao Hua bowed and saluted, then followed Mei 'er into the town.

"Immortal Elder, take care!" The old man said in a low voice. His lifeless eyes looked at the direction Xiao Hua was walking in. It was unknown what he was thinking.

"You … are you really Immortal Elder?" Mei 'er walked in front for a while. Seeing that they were about to enter the town, she couldn't help but turn her head and ask.

"Don't I look like one?" Xiao Hua rubbed his nose and lowered his head to look at his own Daoist robe.

"Looking at your clothes, you do look like one. However … although Elder Sister Fairy is as young and amiable as you, Elder Sister Fairy has never saluted Grandpa. En, that means that everyone in the town salutes Elder Sister Fairy!"

"Is that so?"

Xiao Hua secretly laughed. He really didn't know why Mei 'er's observation was so detailed: "Maybe everyone is different!

I feel that your Grandpa is very amazing, that's why I saluted him! "

"That's right. Grandpa is really amazing. Think about it. So many stone sculptures were carved by him alone. How many can there be in the whole world?" Mei 'er puffed out her small chest, as if she also contributed to this.

"Pfft," Xiao Hua laughed. Looking at this little girl who connected the words "all the world" with the size of Lu Yang, he said: "How far is Elder Sister Fairy's Cai Family from here?"

"Mei 'er rode a donkey cart there. I'm afraid it's about two hours!" Mei' er frowned and thought for a while before replying.

"Which direction?"

After Mei 'er pointed in a direction, Xiao Hua extended his hand and said with a smile: "Mei' er, how about I fly you there?"

"Okay, could it be … you really are Immortal Elder?"

Mei 'er's words almost made Xiao Hua not know whether to laugh or cry. So at this time, she still suspected that he was a swindler!

Extending his hand, Xiao Hua grabbed Mei 'er's arm and said: "Let's fly. If you're scared, then close your eyes!"

"I'm not scared!" Mei 'er clenched her teeth, seemingly unwilling to admit defeat.

"Okay," Xiao Hua praised and flew into the air. At this time, there were many people in the town who saw this. They all stood respectfully and looked on with envy!
