Eight days later, Orange Mountain City.
A thin figure carrying a brown bag was walking on the side of the road.
The cars sped past him, but his pace was the same as ever, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
His thin body, green-brown monk robe, and deep wrinkles made passersby take a few more glances.
Xu Tian didn't care about those strange gazes.
Instead, he focused on walking, increasing his lifespan minute by minute.
While waiting for the traffic light, more and more people gathered around Xu Tian.
Many elderly people looked at Xu Tian with sympathy and respect.
As for those young hamapi, they acted as if they had never seen the world before. They picked up their phones and took pictures of Xu Tian.
They even whispered to each other,"Do you think this old monk will ask people for money?"”
"At this age, and dressed so shabbily, you're always accurate.”
"Nowadays, monks have become a profession. If you want to become a monk, you have to have a bachelor's degree. Do you think there are still so-called accomplished monks?”
"Don't look at his shabby clothes. He might get into a BMW Mercedes-Benz at the corner.”
……
Compared to the discussions in the crowd, Xu Tian was more concerned about the countdown at the traffic lights.
To him, that was not an Arabic number, but his life.
When the green light lit up, Xu Tian could not wait to step forward and walk across the sidewalk.
At this moment, the long-awaited notification sounded in Xu Tian's mind.
Ding!" Congratulations to the host for trekking 100 kilometers for the first time. The host is rewarded with a golden alms bowl, a monk staff, and the martial arts technique," Vajra Palm ".”
The Great Strength Vajra Palm was a hand strengthening technique that cultivated both internal and external strength.
After success, it could open mountains and crush rocks, with endless power.
"Ding! The system has rewarded the host with a martial art. The host can instantly learn it and upgrade it to the Mahayana realm.”
A moment later, the staff in Xu Tian's hand quietly turned into a silver staff, and the bag on his shoulder became much heavier.
He noticed that there were blue veins popping out on his wrist. His originally skinny wrist had become different.
At the same time, he felt a surge of energy coursing through his body and finally gathering on Xu Tian's arm.
After checking the system, Xu Tian saw the time he had left.
12 days, 5 hours, 21 minutes and 33 seconds.
"Ge. Life has not yet been completed, the same. You still need to work hard."
Xu Tian muttered and continued walking.
Behind him, two young men who were streaming on the streets immediately stared at Xu Tian.
He was dressed like an ascetic monk at this age.
Wasn't this the flow of traffic?
The kids in the big city nowadays would never have the chance to meet an ascetic monk.
Wasn't this just right to poke their eyeballs?
Sure enough, the two young men only took pictures of Xu Tian's back. In a short while, the popularity of the live-stream broke through 10,000.
This was the most popular broadcast they had ever seen.
The two young men who had tasted the sweetness chased after Xu Tian all the way.
"F * ck, is this really an ascetic monk? I've seen it on TV."
"It should be fake. There are still ascetics in this day and age.”
"Be more confident and remove the 'should' and 'should'. This is obviously fake."
"It's just for the effect of the live broadcast."
"I don't think so. Look at him. He only cares about walking by himself and doesn't care about anything around him at all.”
"Yes, yes, yes. I don't think it's fake either.”
"Streamer, quickly go and ask. If it's really an ascetic monk, we'll give you a gift.”
Looking at the bullet comments in the live broadcast room, the two young people were very excited.
However, they didn't go up to Xu Tian and ask him. They just followed him quietly.
It was not until they saw that they had received a lot of gifts in the live broadcast room that they jogged over.
"Master, are you an ascetic monk?”
The young man ran up to Xu Tian and asked as he retreated. At the same time, he pointed his phone at Xu Tian.
Before Xu Tian could answer, the young man asked again,""Master, you're already so old, yet you still come out to cultivate. Isn't it hard?”
In the live broadcast room, everyone saw Xu Tian's face full of deep wrinkles.
"Heavens, Grandmaster is already so old. This…is at least seventy years old.”
"I don't think so."
"Are you really pretending to be so old? I don't think it's necessary."
"Yeah, to put it bluntly, I don't have many years left to live. There's no need to come out and pretend to be an ascetic monk.”
"You guys are really too inexperienced. If he didn't pretend to be pitiful and realistic, how would you believe him?”
"If it was a young monk in his twenties, would you still believe in ascetics?”
"This is all a trick. Just wait to be cut off.”
"Patron, be careful." The young man was so focused on filming Xu Tian that he did not notice the trash can behind him.
Avoiding the iron trash can, the young man scratched his head and said,""Thank you, Master."
Xu Tian nodded and said,"Ascetic practice is a form of cultivation. It has nothing to do with age."”,He continued walking.
Monks did not lie, and Xu Tian's words were not meant to elevate himself.
When he had just left Zhenshan Temple, Xu Tian had gone on an ascetic journey in order to survive. After walking for a while, he felt very tired and the soles of his feet ached.
It felt like a kind of torture, a constant torture.
After that, he no longer focused on increasing his lifespan by practicing asceticism.
Open your mind and not cultivate for the sake of cultivation, and truly become an ascetic monk.
He realized that he wasn't tired even though he had walked further, and his heart was calm and not impetuous.
"Did you hear that? Wise words, isn't this a true master?”
"Grandmaster is right. Cultivation has nothing to do with age.”
"No matter what you do, no matter how old you are, it's all a form of self-cultivation.”
"Agreed 1…"
"I want to see the follow-up.”
