Chapter 7: Speechless with emotion
Chapter 7: Speechless with emotion
"Thank you for your explanation, Fellow Daoist Xiyi. I intend to return to my residence now."
After chatting with Xi Yi for a while, Kunpeng decided to return.
Enough. There's no point in traveling through this uninteresting prehistoric world. Going back and calming down is the real priority.
There's absolutely no need to worry about traveling too late and having all the good stuff snatched up by others; there's no such concern whatsoever.
What good stuff could they possibly find? Nothing.
It would be better to go back and calm down, think about future plans, and perhaps even consider whether you truly lack an innate treasure.
Ultimately, it's the resentment of a poor person.
I no longer pray for how powerful my companion treasures are.
Actually, this is a good thing, it evens things out since the "Companion Treasure" is pretty useless anyway.
But even just connecting to 'Skynet' would be fine.
At least I won't look like a complete idiot who doesn't understand anything, while the other person has gone from showing off to looking pitiful, which means they're pitying me.
No, this feeling is very bad.
"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, what are your plans...?"
"I'm going to search carefully to see if I also have a companion treasure. Everyone should have one!"
The honest Kunpeng is all about telling the truth; there's no need for any deceit or treachery.
"Ah, this? That's right. All of you fellow Daoists have them, and the Heavenly Dao is impartial, so it's impossible for you not to have one. You must have left in such a hurry that you didn't notice... Indeed, we should go back and look for them. After all, although there aren't many of us fellow Daoists, only twelve, it's rare to find someone as hospitable and willing to help as I am."
Xi Yi said without blushing, also emphasizing "honesty".
"Yes, that's right."
Kunpeng felt nothing was amiss. He believed whatever he was told; this was an honest primordial world.
What conspiracies, what schemes, what causes and effects... none of these exist. This primordial world may be simple, but it is real.
Isn't that an advantage?
People shouldn't be too rigid. Looking at it from another perspective, this ancient world isn't so bad. Why isn't honesty a virtue?
after that……
Kunpeng bid farewell to Xiyi and slowly disappeared from each other's sight.
Actually, it's not far, less than five miles.
Kunpeng returned to the place where it had crossed the sea. Looking into the distance, it could still vaguely see the small island it had swum from, as if it were about to swim back.
However, an important problem has arisen.
"Damn it, I'm even hungrier now."
This is a problem that didn't present any pressure even before my rebirth.
Unexpectedly, being reborn into the prehistoric world has become a very important problem.
"Eat grass? No, no, I won't."
As soon as the idea came to mind, Kunpeng stubbornly rejected it.
Forget about being a great power. It's not even worth mentioning the Qi cultivation that involves living on wind and dew. What kind of great power is that?
"People should have principles, but they can't starve to death, right?"
Gradually, a thought emerged: a wise person knows when to yield; one cannot simply starve to death.
Besides, how can you know whether the grass in this primordial world is the same as the grass in your previous life if you don't eat a single blade of grass?
"It seems I never ate grass in my past life. I only remember the sweet aroma of wheat in the air when the lawn was being mowed in the neighborhood, and I feel a little nostalgic about that."
This is how people's bottom line is gradually broken down.
I was really hungry, and I felt like I could try anything.
"It's difficult to swim across this ocean on an empty stomach, let alone dive down to the island, which is very tiring. To be on the safe side, I can't go hungry... What Xi Yi eats, can't this humble Taoist eat?"
"eat!"
Kunpeng made up his mind to fill his stomach first before thinking about anything else.
After looking around for a long time, I finally found a patch of green space that hadn't been trampled on, covered with lush, tender grass.
Kunpeng was too embarrassed to stand and search, fearing that although there weren't many people in this small prehistoric world, it wouldn't look good if he were seen.
He carefully lowered his waist, almost crawling forward.
People only think about sex when they are well-fed and warm; when they are truly hungry, they don't think about so many things, they only think about being full.
So at this moment, his status as a powerful being in the primordial world was no longer important, and he didn't think about anything else; all he wanted was to fill his stomach.
The Kunpeng, bending low as it stepped onto the grass, its eyes glowing green, wasn't actually starving; it was just the grass reflecting light.
How he longed to find some "refined food" in the bushes right now!
Whether it's potatoes or sweet potatoes, it's better than eating grass.
If there were refined food, my bottom line wouldn't be so absolute. Even though I've already accepted it, that ridiculous pride still reminds me.
"There must be one, there definitely is. Give myself five minutes to look. If I really can't find it... then I'll just put up with it."
His limited rationality compelled him to search quickly.
Don't ask why potatoes and sweet potatoes grow in the grass; it's not a suitable environment for plant growth.
Don't ask these questions. The answer is that in the primordial chaos, plants could grow freely.
This isn't your land; you have to weed before you can plant anything else.
This doesn't exist here. In Xi Yi's words, the denser the grass, the easier it is to hide fine food.
It seems that refined cuisine is like the king of the grass.
It takes the essence of a large meadow to grow a few potatoes and sweet potatoes.
"Ha ha……"
Suddenly, a hearty, cheerful laugh rang out, unlike what one would expect from someone who is very hungry.
"Guess what? I actually found him, hahaha..."
suddenly!
The roc, which had been bowing its head, suddenly straightened its back. It would not bend its back for a thousand pieces of gold, but it would bend its back for a sweet potato.
That's how it is right now.
For someone who grew up in the countryside and has a passion for growing flowers and plants, discovering different plants in this lush meadow is quite easy.
He was certain that he had found the sweet potato; the vines were very long, there was no mistake.
"Heaven has been quite kind to me! There's fine food right here at my doorstep, not bad, not bad at all, haha..."
Suddenly, his voice was full of energy; indeed, living is all about the breath in one's heart.
From listless to full of energy, it all happened in that short instant.
This is the power of hope!
He quickly arrived at a sweet potato field. After all, Kunpeng was a "powerful being," and digging the ground with his bare hands was a piece of cake for him.
If he can't even do this, then I'm sorry to say he can jump ten meters.
"Huff, huff!"
Before long, Kunpeng dug up a lot of sweet potatoes, fulfilling the rural boy's long-held desire to dig sweet potatoes in the fields.
"Crunch! Sweet, so sweet!"
He casually wiped his eyes with his hand and took a bite. The sweet potato nourished his tears... Fortunately, he held back and the tears did not fall from the corners of his eyes.
"Mom, you don't need to worry about your son going hungry."
I blurted it out without thinking. Everyone says rebirth is good, but who knows how bitter it is?
Such high hopes, such a prestigious status, but the reality was that they almost had to eat grass. How frustrating!
"If I knew nothing, that would be fine; if I hadn't been given any expectations from the start, that would be fine too. But I know, this is the primordial world!"
Kunpeng: ...
He was speechless and choked with emotion.
