Chapter 165: Observing Old Man Hai's Nirvana
Old Man Hai walked into the yard carrying a sea bass that was nearly three feet long.
Meng Bai put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "Old Hai, you must have been so lucky today that you actually caught such a big fish."
Three-foot-long perch are not common on weekdays, so Meng Bai also goes to the beach to fish in his spare time.
But his best luck was to catch a two-foot-long grass carp.
The old man adjusted his hat on his head, showing his yellow teeth and smiled: "This sea area is blessing me."
"Come on, Meng boy, you have great skills, cook this fish."
"Today we two will have a treat."
After Meng Bai took the sea bass, he waved his hand and the yard became an outdoor kitchen.
While Meng Bai was cooking the fish, Old Man Hai picked up the teacup on the table and secretly took a sip of the spiritual tea.
“Good tea!”
"Old Hai, you don't look like you are tasting tea when you drink it all in one gulp."
"I am a rough man and don't know how to taste tea. As long as it tastes good, that's all I need."
Meng Bai shook his head slightly.
"Meng, you have to cook this fish well for me. This is my last meal before my 900th birthday."
Meng Bai said with a little surprise: "Old Hai, you will be 900 years old tomorrow?"
Old Man Hai laughed and said, "Why, Meng boy, are you giving me a birthday present?"
Meng Bai shook his head and asked, "Are you sure about the annihilation disaster?"
Nine hundred years old means that Old Man Hai is about to go through his fifth calamity of extinction.
Old Hai said calmly, "No. I don't think I can survive this disaster."
Old Man Hai has survived four calamities of extinction, and he can also estimate the intensity of the fifth calamity of extinction.
He was very sure that his chances of surviving this disaster were less than 10%.
"But you don't have to feel sad for me, I've lived for 900 years. Maybe you won't live as long as me!"
Meng Bai sneered: "Don't worry, Old Man Hai, I will definitely live to be a thousand years old."
Old Man Hai took another sip of the tea and said with a smile, "Meng boy, do you know that there is a saying in the mortal world that good people don't live long, but evil people live for thousands of years."
"Living too long is not necessarily good."
Meng Bai brought the steamed sea bass to the table.
"Why, old man Hai, are you envious of others who live longer than you?"
Old Hai shook his head and said, "You are still too young to understand."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Hurry up and make a few more side dishes and bring up a pot of spirit wine."
Meng Bai laughed and scolded: "Do you think this is a wine shop?"
Old Hai chuckled and said, "Just consider it as fulfilling my last wish before I die."
"Okay, I'll let you be a full ghost."
......
night.
Midnight is approaching.
Tonight, Meng Bai neither practiced nor slept. Instead, he sat in his own yard and paid attention to the breath of the old man next door.
Suddenly, Meng Bai felt the fluctuation of the magic power of the old man next door.
Meng Bai looked in the direction of the old man's hut and murmured, "Here he comes."
Old Man Hai began to survive the calamity of extinction.
Although Old Man Hai knew that there was no chance of survival this time, he still wanted to give it a try.
What if it passes?
No, you can live another hundred years.
The calamity of extinction is not a calamity of thunder, but rather a calamity of the inner demons in the world of immortal cultivation. One can only rely on oneself to overcome the calamity, and it is difficult for outsiders to help.
However, Meng Bai could still see a lot of things while watching in the courtyard.
The first thing was that Old Man Hai set up a formation in his own hut to help concentrate and calm the mind.
And when the calamity of extinction broke out, Old Man Hai showed a sense of immortality.
This idea of immortality has been fighting against the catastrophe of extinction.
About an hour later,
The will of immortality in Old Man Hai became weaker and weaker until it disappeared completely. Then his blood and energy weakened in an instant, and his magic power suddenly dissipated, turning into a storm that swept across the fishing village.
Meng Bai sighed slightly: "The magic power has returned to the heaven and earth, the vitality has been cut off, and it has failed!"
Although he was mentally prepared, Meng Bai still felt sorry for Old Man Hai.
When he arrived at Old Man Hai’s house, Meng Bai saw a coffin appear in front of Old Man Hai’s bed.
Meng Bai couldn't help but smile: "You old man really thought of it well. You even prepared your own coffin."
Meng Bai waved his hand and used his magic power to place Old Man Hai's body into the coffin.
The next day, Meng Bai buried Old Man Hai in the back mountain of the fishing village and erected a tombstone for him.
Meng Bai poured a pot of spiritual wine in front of Old Man Hai's tombstone.
"Let's go, old man."
Meng Bai has stayed in the fishing village long enough. Now that Old Man Hai is dead, it is time for him to leave the fishing village.
Moreover, this time, observing Old Man Hai's calamity of extinction also brought him some gains.
Meng Bai prepared to return to Zhiyun Temple to meditate for a period of time.
......
Yucheng,
In the secret room of the palace.
After three years, with the help of Yu Chao's luck and ghost calculation, he finally healed his injuries.
The ghost calculator said gloomily, "Three years. It took me three years to expel the mysterious power on my back."
If it was a normal injury, it wouldn't take so long. However, that day, Meng Bai's sword energy carried the power of laws, and Gui Suanzi was injured by the power of laws. He himself did not understand the power of laws, so it took a lot of time to expel the power of laws from his body.
The ghost fortune teller then called his followers to ask about the situation of Yu Dynasty in recent years.
After listening to the report from his followers, he was furious: "Useless, a bunch of useless. I have only been in seclusion for three years, and you have already handed over nearly half of the territory of Yu Dynasty to others. No wonder I feel that the fortune of Yu Dynasty is getting weaker and weaker."
"I'm so angry!"
......
In Chuxiu Palace,
At this moment, Yu Huang was playing with several concubines, feeling extremely happy.
A minister loyal to Yu Dynasty suddenly broke into Chuxiu Palace.
The minister knelt on the ground and said with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, you have not attended court for seven days. Now that our dynasty and the Xuan Dynasty are losing the war, please do not indulge in the gentleness of the country anymore."
After hearing this, Yu Huang was furious: "Who gave you the courage to trespass into the harem? Someone, drag him out and behead him."
Two guards appeared and pulled the minister away.
The minister could not help cursing: "What a tyrant! How could my Yu Dynasty have a ruler like you?"
Yu Huang was furious: "Execute this man to death by slicing."
"I am so angry that a mere minister dares to criticize me."
A very beautiful concubine came before Yu Huang.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. I will help you calm down."
"My beloved concubine still understands me." Yu Huang hugged the concubine.
At this moment, the ghost calculator's roar was heard.
"Bastard thing!"
The ghost calculator appeared in front of Yu Huang with an angry face.
The concubine in Yu Huang's arms shouted angrily: "Who are you? How dare you speak to the emperor like this? Someone take him down."
"Shut up."
Yu Huang pushed the concubine in his arms away and slapped her in the face.
The concubine looked in disbelief, and then she saw an even more unbelievable scene.
Yu Huang knelt down in front of the ghost calculator and said, "Tang Xi pays respect to the ancestors!"
A terrifying murderous aura pressed towards Yu Huang.
"I will hand over Yu Dynasty to you, and this is how you manage it."
Yu Huang was so frightened that he kowtowed immediately: "Ancestor, please spare my life. Tang Xi knows his fault."
