Chapter 254 The place where the dream begins
Laojun Mountain, YB City, Sichuan.
It's not far from Cuiyun Valley where Chen Yun, Bai Shi and others went during the May Day holiday.
Or in a sense, it can even be said to be relatively close.
After taking a bus for about two hours, Chen Yun carried his suitcase containing Shagou Platinum and arrived at Laojun Mountain in Yibin, the starting point for the first stage of his global trip.
When we came to the foot of the mountain.
It was already close to ten o'clock in the morning.
The sun hangs high in the sky, casting golden light on the rolling Laojun Mountains. There is a light scent of pine and earth filling the forest.
Chen Yun looked up at the rolling mountains, feeling an inexplicable excitement in his heart.
Last time I was here.
Just like last time.
That time was March 16th.
Because I felt so relaxed and happy while exercising in the wilderness, I simply decided to take a quick trip, and then went to Laojun Mountain.
It is already May 4th.
Time passes quickly.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month and nearly two months have passed. At that time, the transparent world was only version 2.0 and has now been upgraded to version 5.0.
At that time, I only had a few tons of strength.
Now it has become 400 tons, and the gap is completely different.
Think for a moment.
Chen Yun did not choose to go up the mountain immediately, but came to the familiar Huangjia Village at the foot of the mountain.
I remember that my daily necessities were burned by a fire, and my clothes were scratched and my shoes were trampled on while jumping down the mountain.
An old man here gave me a set of clothes and shoes.
The shirt was made of pure cotton, with simple patterns and a loose collar for easy putting on and taking off.
And a pair of white canvas shoes.
Although this kindness is not huge.
But Chen Yun will never forget it.
He is not a cold-blooded animal who kills everyone on sight and has no emotions.
Today before heading up the mountain.
Chen Yun naturally planned to come here first.
As soon as I reached the entrance of the village, I saw an acquaintance sitting on a bench not far away.
See this.
Chen Yun took out a convenient bag containing clothes and many gifts from the backpack on his back, and stepped forward with a chuckle.
When the acquaintance opposite saw this, he stood up in surprise: "Xiao Chen, are you here again?"
The old man's smile was very kind.
As one of the many empty-nesters in Huangjiacun, he was still deeply impressed by the young acquaintance in front of him, even after more than a month.
More than a month ago.
This young man basically ran naked down the mountain.
That look, that scene.
He has really never seen it.
So I enthusiastically gave him a suit of clothes.
After that, the two chatted happily for a long time.
So Uncle Huang had a deep impression on Chen Yun.
Chen Yun nodded with a smile and handed over the convenience bag in his hand: "Uncle, these are the clothes you gave me last time, as well as some gifts specially prepared for you this time. I hope you will like it."
The uncle took the convenience bag and looked at it, his face full of surprise and joy: "Oh, how embarrassing is this."
"Where is it?" Chen Yun waved his hand, "Your help last time was very important to me. These are just a few thoughts. I hope I can express my gratitude."
Chen Yun persuaded with a smile.
The clothes he borrowed last time must be returned. He had already washed them, sorted them and put them away.
As for the gifts he gave, they were indeed not expensive. They were basically some not-too-expensive supplements that most ordinary people could afford.
So under his repeated persuasion.
The old man finally accepted it.
After the two exchanged a few words.
Chen Yun asked about the uncle's recent living conditions.
I felt relieved to know that everything was fine with my uncle.
The uncle warmly invited Chen Yun to sit at home. Considering that it was still early, Chen Yun readily accepted the invitation.
Along the way.
The two of them chatted casually just like the last time they met.
At this moment, Chen Yun was not that extraordinary person.
He became that ignorant child who likes to chat with the elderly again.
The topics the two talked about were still the same, ranging from rural construction to the current price of pork. From the county government's visit to the countryside a few months ago, we talked about some practices in response to the country's call to protect the environment.
After all, the uncle seems to like to talk about this.
Arriving at the uncle's house, Chen Yun was welcomed into a small courtyard full of rural atmosphere.
The yard is not big, but it is kept clean and tidy.
There are several green vegetables planted in the corner, and a few hens are leisurely foraging in the chicken coop nearby.
The uncle's wife was also busy in the yard. She greeted Chen Yun warmly and then turned around and went into the house to prepare tea and snacks.
In the uncle's living room, an old wooden table is covered with a tablecloth embroidered with traditional patterns.
After Chen Yun sat down, the uncle personally made a pot of hot tea for him.
The aroma of tea makes people feel relaxed and relaxed.
The two continued to chat, and Chen Yun listened to the uncle describing the changes in the village.
The main ones are the same as mentioned last time.
Judging from how their mountain villages have become connected to water, electricity and roads under modern development, they are gradually no longer as closed as before.
It talks about how hard it is to farm in mountain villages, so much so that young people basically go out to find jobs, leaving only left-behind children and empty-nesters in the villages.
This helplessness of the changing times is not deeply reflected in the old man's words, because the old couple is more optimistic and cheerful.
Those ordinary but true stories made Chen Yun feel a long-lost tranquility and simplicity.
At this moment, his heart was filled with longing for tomorrow and love for life.
At the same time, at this moment, he also deeply felt that whether it was extraordinary power or ordinary daily life, they were an important part of the beautiful picture of this world.
Not long.
The uncle’s wife brought home-made snacks.
Although simple, it is full of affection.
Chen Yun didn't care that he could only eat snakes, but tasted and affirmed them seriously.
Time passes quietly inadvertently.
The sun slowly comes to the top of the head, and noon has quietly arrived.
Chen Yun smiled and stood up to say goodbye.
He didn't plan to stay for a meal, and it was time to meet another friend.
Before leaving, Chen Yun once again expressed his gratitude to the uncle and promised to bring something over next time he comes.
Then.
As the couple said goodbye, Chen Yun, who had walked away, calmly used his nourishing power to give the old couple a wave of vitality.
This will probably allow the old couple to live longer without illness or disaster.
Chen Yun doesn't know the specific effects because he hasn't tested it on the elderly several times.
But he was sure it was all good.
Vitality has no negative effects.
At most, Uncle Huang suddenly felt so full of energy that he couldn't stop venting his energy. Then he might plow two miles of land with a hoe.
Thinking that this might highlight the image of getting older and getting stronger.
Chen Yun couldn't help laughing.
Immediately, Chen Yun, who said goodbye to his uncle and aunt, picked up his backpack and continued his journey to Laojun Mountain with a satisfied heart. After leaving Huangjiacun, Chen Yun walked along the winding mountain road, and the surrounding scenery was refreshing.
Dense trees block out the sun, the occasional chirping of birds can be heard, and the fresh air is refreshing.
As he walked, he admired the scenery along the way and felt extremely happy.
This is not only the place where dreams begin, but also where this trip begins.
To this.
Chen Yun is looking forward to it.
But before that, Chen Yun had to go and meet another old friend hiding in the mountains and forests.
The sun was gradually setting in the west, and Chen Yun quickened his pace.
The familiar scenery among the mountains and forests made Chen Yun's eyes flash with nostalgia.
While passing some trees.
Chen Yun's memory will also clearly tell him that he once jumped between the branches of these trees to pass by.
His sense of smell, which transcends time and space, has transcended the essence of smell. Now he can smell the smell of his past existence in various places here.
My former self.
Because your own substances will decompose outside the body, you can't smell any of your own odor.
After all, the essence of smell is that molecules from other objects enter the nasal cavity.
But now.
His so-called sense of smell, which has a sense of smell beyond time and space, is completely unreasonable.
The presence of free molecules of the substance is not required.
He just can smell himself.
And I can smell every bit of my past across time and space.
This made Chen Yun unable to help but immerse himself in it.
A long time passed.
Chen Yun, who had been turning on the transparent world perception, was stunned. As he was walking slowly, he couldn't help but look in a certain direction and smile.
He was in no hurry and seemed to have no goal along the way, but his eyes immediately shone with light at this moment.
There is a transparent world perception covering a radius of 600 meters.
Chen Yun noticed a sleeping black bear in a certain direction not far away.
The black bear was huge, with shiny black fur, and its breathing was even and deep.
Apparently sleeping.
Chen Yun adjusted his pace gently, trying to minimize the noise he made while walking, and quietly approached the sleeping black bear.
When Chen Yun wants to make a big move, he can easily crack mountains and crack rocks.
When Chen Yun wanted to make a small movement, no one could notice it.
Just because he rarely sneaks, doesn't mean that he, a berserker, can't sneak.
Under his deliberate concealment.
The black bear was unaware of Chen Yun's approach.
As the distance shortened, Chen Yun could feel the unique scent of wild beasts filling the air.
The surroundings were filled with a strong aura that portended danger.
There was a strong, unsettling smell in the air, the traces of the beast's unique territoriality and potential aggression left in the air.
First, he smelled a pungent, strong smell similar to ammonia, the smell of urine that black bears secrete to mark their territory.
This smell lingers in the air, carrying an aggressive and warning tone, as if silently declaring: "This is my territory, no outsiders are allowed in."
The smell is enough to make most humans' hearts beat faster involuntarily, reminding them that the creature in front of them is not a docile pet, but one of nature's apex predators.
Then, Chen Yun noticed a complex smell mixed with earth, sweat and oil. This was a unique smell on the skin and hair of black bears.
There's something wild and powerful about this scent, reminiscent of muscle tension and preparation for battle.
Although the black bear seems quiet at the moment, the smell reveals that it has the potential to explode at any time, ready to go like a strung bow.
In addition, Chen Yun also caught a hint of blood.
Although it is very faint, it is enough to make people realize that this black bear may have just enjoyed a meal of prey not long ago.
All these smells come together to create an environment full of threat and uncertainty.
For normal people, every next step needs to be cautious. Any carelessness may trigger the instinctive reaction of this huge creature and bring unpredictable consequences.
But Chen Yun was not afraid of this.
Instead, he continued to approach carelessly, completely unmoved by the so-called danger.
Putting aside the fact that the black bear was his friend.
Just say that the strength of Black Bear's three-legged cat is impossible to have any influence on him.
Back then, he dared to go to the primeval forest of Laojun Mountain to face a black bear in March, not long after his dormant evolution, let alone now in May.
When the black bear bit him, one of his teeth was shattered.
What's more, now?
When he gets hot and looks down, he can even penetrate dozens or hundreds of black bears.
Invincible in attack and invincible in defense.
There was no reason for him to be afraid.
So Chen Yun approached this ferocious predator without any scruples.
Wait until you reach the black bear's face.
He reached out his hand without hesitation.
"Elbow, I'm here to take you to eat good food again."
With that said, Chen Yun grabbed the sleeping black bear's neck and pulled it away in one direction.
The sleeping black bear was pulled up by the neck, and was immediately forced to turn on his phone.
In response to this, the black bear reacted with confusion at first.
It felt absolutely uncomfortable to be forced to turn on the phone from a deep sleep. Black Bear, who had never had such an experience before, was naturally confused at first and didn't know what was happening to him.
But then.
When the black bear realized what had happened, it let out a roar and roar, and waved its claws to open the gourd directly to the guy next to it.
I was woken up by someone while I was sleeping soundly.
Can this be tolerated?
So the black bear did not hesitate to strike with a powerful and heavy claw.
But...its powerful and heavy blow was useless.
Chen Yun casually pinched his paw, and then threw him over his shoulder without hesitation.
The black bear had no power to resist Chen Yun's huge power.
Immediately, a violent aesthetic with great visual impact was staged.
A close contact with the ground.
And this time it fell hard.
It also made the black bear shake his head in a daze, feeling like the whole world was being ghosted.
This time the intensity is just right.
Being confused doesn't hurt your brain.
Black Bear, who was still angry when he got up just now, suddenly felt refreshed.
After calming down for a while, it looked intently at the person standing in front of it.
"Sober?"
Chen Yun looked at the black bear in front of him with a smile.
After confirming that the black bear's mood suddenly changed from confusion and anger to well-behaved and trusting, he smiled, wrapped his arms around the black bear's neck, and dragged it deep into the forest.
This time.
The black bear offered no resistance.
First of all, it was because he recognized Chen Yun and understood that he was his friend.
Secondly...
It's because the black bear knows it well.
It is absolutely impossible for him to have any resistance when facing Chen Yun.
So, it lies flat.
