Volume 1 Lin Yuan Chapter 1 I Can See Opportunity
July is the hottest month in the world and it is not suitable for hunting.
Under the scorching sun, the Huangpo Village canteen was very lively and almost full of hunters.
Boom.
With the sound of the earthen bowl being placed on the table, Wang Chen ate the food on the wooden table like whirlwind and sat back in his chair, but then his brows furrowed.
It has been exactly five years since he came to this world . Apart from the occasional figures flying across the sky reminding him that this is a world where he can practice cultivation and where those who have mastered the skills can fly into the sky and break the earth, and break mountains and rivers with their strength, he doesn't even know what the outside world calls this place.
"Am I going to be trapped here forever with Xiaofang from the east end of the village and Amei and Chunhua from the west end of the village?"
Looking up at the roof, it was as if he was lying on the branch of an old tree and gazing at the starry sky, as if he could see the occasional shooting stars passing by in the night through the somewhat rotten wooden beams and the cobweb-covered roof.
That was a cultivator on the path of cultivation flying through the air.
"If you are a man, you should go to heaven, but I am not an ordinary person." Wang Chen murmured.
"Wang Chen."
A clear voice was calling his name, and Wang Chen inexplicably felt that his slightly sad state was broken. He frowned and looked at a little girl of eight or nine years old who was sitting next to him.
"Have you ever thought that your blindly good self-perception is an illusion?" the girl asked with her big innocent eyes.
"You know nothing." Wang Chen was angry when he was called back to reality.
"Have you memorized the Disciple Rules I taught you? How about the Three Character Classic?"
"Call me Brother Chen, do you understand?" He decided to talk things over with this uneducated girl.
"Brother Chen."
The response came quickly, but the voice came from the cafeteria entrance.
This strong yet delicate call almost made Wang Chen fall off his chair.
As the ground shook faintly, a dark-skinned female figure over 1.8 meters tall rushed to Wang Chen like a gust of wind, raised her thick black eyebrows, and looked down at him condescendingly.
"Black Whirlwind Tu Jiaojiao?"
The nickname Black Whirlwind was not given by Wang Chen, but was earned by Tu Jiaojiao as the number one female hunter in Huangpo Village, fighting her way through the mountains and hills. Of course, Wang Chen felt that it also had a lot to do with her appearance.
"My parents are not at home today, come to my room in the evening." Tu Jiaojiao said this without blushing or feeling any heartbeat.
"Can you please not be so blunt?" Wang Chen was a little overwhelmed.
"Wang Chen, the stars are so beautiful tonight. I want to hold your hand and look up at the sky, one by one, two by two, to see the stars in the sky connected into a line."
Compared with Tu Jiaojiao, this quiet and restrained voice can be heard coming from the mouth of Cai Bingyun, the village beauty of Huangpo Village. She even sang classic lyrics that she copied herself. Of course, the villagers of Huangpo Village are not impressed by these and occasionally use these flowery words to mock him.
Wang Chen turned his head to look at the cafeteria entrance, and saw Cai Bingyun wearing a well-cut coarse cloth dress with her dark pigtail placed in front of her right shoulder. She walked towards him in a dignified manner, which made Tu Jiaojiao bar her teeth and curse her as a vixen with two streams of rough air coming out of her nostrils.
He was a little surprised. Tu Jiaojiao had been coveting him for a long time, so it was not surprising that she said these words. However, Cai Bingyun had great ambitions. She changed her name from Youhua to Bingyun, and her goal had always been to catch a rich man. She had never shown any interest in him, so why was she so proactive today?
Being handsome does indeed bring a lot of troubles.
The doubt lasted for a second, and then Wang Chen made the normal choice.
"I have long admired the reputation of Black Whirlwind, but some things cannot be forced."
"By the way, Bingyun, what time in the evening..."
Wang Chen was about to ask when to meet, but then a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Because a line of words appeared in front of his eyes.
"Tu Jiaojiao, a hunter from Huangpo Village, has a strong personality and is gifted with good fortune. If you agree to all her requests and increase her favorability, you can follow her out of the mountains and embark on the path of cultivation. Otherwise, your favorability will decrease and you will lose the opportunity. Opportunity strength: medium."
“Out of the mountains…”
Wang Chen's heart suddenly skipped a beat for no apparent reason.
The last time similar words appeared before my eyes was when I was hunting in the mountains and accidentally found a green fruit in a wild fruit forest.
The fruit was plain, without any fragrance or taste. Even wild animals that loved to eat wild fruits were too lazy to touch it. However, for the first time, the instruction manual-like words appeared in front of Wang Chen's eyes:
"Green Tuo fruit grows in a place where the wood energy of the five elements of heaven and earth is strong. If consumed directly, it can strengthen the body to a certain extent depending on the aptitude of the person taking it. Chance strength: slight."
After he ate this inconspicuous little fruit with half belief and half doubt, he found that this tiny opportunity really made him stronger and he became the best knifeman in Huangpo Village.
For Wang Chen, five years is like a dream. He dreams of walking out of the mountains and embarking on the path of cultivation.
After all, he was a hunter here, but deep down in his heart, he still wanted to go home. He had dreamed countless times of returning to his hometown and seeing his parents' surprised expressions.
"Since people in this world can cultivate to fly and hide like gods and immortals, why can't I, who can see opportunities, break through the void and return to my hometown?"
But Huangpo Village, a name with a strong village flavor, is like a cage. It is not only small and remote, but also makes people see no hope of getting out.
Although he is now the best hunter in Huangpo Village, Wang Chen knows very well that it is simply a pipe dream to leave Huangpo Village and seek opportunities in the legendary outside world.
Because he had no ability to travel between the dangerous mountain jungles, otherwise the ferocious beasts in the deep mountains and dense forests would not mind the food delivered to their doorsteps. He had seen a blue giant python from afar, spewing out ice mist, and in the hot summer season when the air was steaming, it turned a king tiger in the forest into an ice sculpture and slowly swallowed it into its stomach. Then, he silently left the mountain jungle.
Wang Chen had also thought that if the opportunity he had obtained was more powerful, the situation would be completely different.
Unfortunately, the hunters in Huangpo Village occasionally found all kinds of strange things in the forest, such as animal bones, rare tree roots, strange flowers, etc. Even Wang Chen often dived to fish and risked his life to explore caves and cliffs, but he did not find any opportunities.
So Wang Chen is still just the fastest knifeman in Huangpo Village, a hunter who is extremely eager for opportunities. When faced with medium-intensity opportunities, he even forgot the existence of Cai Bingyun at this moment.
"It's not micro, it's not small, it's medium..."
"Tu Jiaojiao actually has such a strong opportunity?"
"Could it be that she has mastered some secret method of dual cultivation?"
After the excitement, Wang Chen was shocked. He looked up at Tu Jiaojiao's orc-like strong body, and his heart was filled with turmoil. For a moment, he even thought that this description of chance could be understood like this: "Press the F key to drive the Tiger tank out of the mountains. Anyone who dares to block the way will be killed with a single shot!"
"It's just... for this opportunity, do I have to go to Tu Jiaojiao's house at night?"
"I'm afraid that I, the fastest swordsman in Huangpo Village, cannot defeat Black Whirlwind."
