Perfect World Chapter 1740

Chapter 1740 - Warm Stone Village

He was home. s.h.i.+ Hao’s eyes were red. Only after standing there quietly for a long time did he calm down slightly.

“Big bro, let’s go! We’re here! Who would have thought that this place would be this beautiful! Wow, there is a herd of Heavenly Horses there! They are snow-white and brilliant, not even a strand of mixed fur. Oh my goodness, there is even one with dragon scales, moreover not normal dragon scales!” The big black tortoise cried out.

Pa!

s.h.i.+ Hao gave the ‘black pot’ a smack, its body shaking until it rolled its eyes. Just the release of a bit of Self Release Realm fluctuations was enough to make it go unconscious.

“Behave yourself, don’t make a big fuss.”

s.h.i.+ Hao walked forward. When there was still several li left to the village, he felt extremely warm inside. He finally came back, it really wasn’t easy.

Not far out was an expanse of mountains. When he pa.s.sed through this place, he made a brief stop. Back then when the Little Stone’s name spread throughout the entire world, the entire lower realms in uproar, he had been buried here for roughly a year.

“I wonder if the five-colored sparrow is still here.” s.h.i.+ Hao really wanted to understand its origins.

It was because the reason he was able to revive that time was greatly related to some seeds it brought over, planted in the grave, making this place flourish with life force, allowing him to rise from the dead.

The five-colored sparrow was extremely mysterious. Ever since s.h.i.+ Hao could remember, it had already been in the village, disappearing from time to time.

If one was to ask who could bully s.h.i.+ Hao, it would be the only one. When he was young, he failed every time he tried to chase after the five-colored sparrow, often falling, and then making him cry as a result. When he got bigger, he still couldn’t catch that strange little bird.

He was now close, he could see the villagers.

Precisely where the village was, some people were coming and going. They were just too familiar, the hunting team returning from a rewarding journey, bringing many giant vicious beasts back into the village.

Were those his childhood companions, was it Dazhuang and the others? They were large and tall, now already the leaders of the hunting group. They grew up!

In front of the village, there were many willow trees planted, gentle and sparkling green.

Were the villagers still reminiscing about Willow Deity? There was an altar where it took root before, becoming the most sacred area, no one occupying that area. Were the villagers still hoping for its return?

It was extremely lively inside the village.

It was because the hunting group returned.

A few children ran around, all of them some little fellas from three to ten years old, full of activity. However, s.h.i.+ Hao didn’t recognize a single one of them.

These were definitely children that were born after he left, all of them energetic, bodies strong. Even children who were very young could jump high into the air, stronger than their parents.

s.h.i.+ Hao arrived at the head of the village, a big black tortoise following behind him.

The big black tortoise walked on two legs, behind it a big black pot, its arms and legs long, appearance rather intimidating.

“Ah, a monster entered the village! Hurry and defeat the monster!”

“What monster? We have the great formation Willow Deity left us, all monsters would be chased off. You children shouldn’t make trouble.” There were adults who berated.

“Really, come and look! There’s a big turtle even darker than donkey poo, fangs bared, eyes widened. It’s coming!” A three-year-old child shouted.

At the front of the village, the big black tortoise was beyond angry, its dark face about to turn green.

It really was baring its teeth and glaring out, but it was because this little brat really didn’t know how to talk. Even though it was a black tortoise, they couldn’t call him big turtle like this, right?

Encountering s.h.i.+ Hao was one thing, it admitted its defeat, yet these little brats were also making noise, really making it glare out.

This was especially when it heard the following commentary, darker than donkey poo, making it want to immediately vomit blood.

Inside the village, there were men and women, young and old surrounding the hunting team. Now, there were finally some who turned around, looking towards the village entrance.

In that instant, the village became quiet, everyone stupefied, as if they became petrified.

The villagers all looked over, every one of them finding it hard to open their mouths as they looked at that person at the front of the village.

A youngster, his figure tall and straight, appearance delicate and handsome, looking like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old stood there. His face was gentle, eyes clear, now walking over step by step.

So many years had pa.s.sed, now more than ten years already, yet they could still see this face, meet this person. The adults all felt themselves going stupid, not daring to believe what they were seeing.

Only the children were confused, full of confusion. Some of them became nervous, raising their heads and tugging at the adults’ clothes, nervously asking, “Mom, is he a big monster? Are uncles and the others scared? Why aren’t they saying anything.”

“Grandpa, is that a human form big monster? Even its servant is so dark and vicious. He can even walk through the formation, enter our village, this is too scary!” Some of the children revealed expressions of fear.

“The little guy!” Finally, someone shouted, moreover running towards the head of the village.

There were some adults who directly scolded their children, “What monster? This is your uncle! The uncle who fought his way into the higher realm alone!”

“Little brats, who taught you to speak such nonsense?!” There were some who directly slapped the bottoms of the brats at their side.

Everyone now rushed over, this place becoming extremely noisy. Everyone shouted loudly, especially the group of robust young men in their twenties and thirties. Soon afterwards, s.h.i.+ Hao was thrown into the air.

“Is this real? You… actually came back!”

“Let me take a bite. This really is flesh, not fake!”

“Brat, you left for more than a decade at a time, now showing up so suddenly like this!”

“Little guy, hurry, let me take a look, let me see how you’ve changed!”

The group of people were too worked up. His childhood companions pushed to the very front, surrounding s.h.i.+ Hao. They felt as if they were dreaming, truly not thinking that they would be able to see him today.

There were others who shouted his childhood nickname -- little guy, extremely intimate.

s.h.i.+ Hao’s nose felt sore, hot tears pouring down. This type of feeling really was great. He returned, and now met so many of his loved ones. After wandering for ten years outside, all of the disappointment, frustration, powerlessness and regret completely vanished. He felt a warmth spreading from head to toe, full of spirit.

What Desolate Border’s blood shed, return of defeat, what watching as those he was close to departed, separated by death? All of these things were pushed away.

Right now, he only felt warmth. Those negative feelings, the bitterness, the difficulties, all of it disappeared, thrown aside. He was truly extremely happy here.

“Wowowow, you are that legendary little uncle?”

A group of little fellas were currently pulling at s.h.i.+ Hao’s trousers, raising their heads, their little faces full of excitement, eyes about to go blind from smiling.

“Heavens, he’s alive! The legendary uncle appeared, awesome!” Another four or five-year-old little fella treated s.h.i.+ Hao like a big tree, starting to climb on his body.

“Is this true? This is the Little Stone uncle? He defeated all enemies under heaven, and then in the end, he ran into the higher realm to be a disaster, I’m too happy, I was able to meet the legendary Little Stone uncle!” Another child jumped and hopped, cheering, face full of excitement.

s.h.i.+ Hao was speechless. Just what were these kids taught? He even became known as a disaster in the lower realms? However, when he carefully thought about it back then, he really did give quite the few major powers headaches, a troublesome individual.

“Haha, this really is too great! Who would have thought that us brothers would meet again one day! I thought that you were already pursuing the immortal dao in the higher realms, that you wouldn’t return.” Dazhuang was now already almost a zhang in height. He slapped s.h.i.+ Hao’s shoulder, giving him a bear hug, eyes full of tears.

“Exactly! I heard that after one headed into the higher realm, coming back down is too difficult, almost impossible. Who would have thought that us brothers could meet again in this life!” Ermeng was also extremely excited.

Pihou, Huzi, and the others were also like this, their eyes all red. They now met their childhood companion again after ten years. How could they forget s.h.i.+ Hao? If not for him, how could Stone Village be in its current state, spiritual medicines everywhere, becoming stronger year after year, no one outside daring to attack it?

“Child, let me take a look. You’ve grown big, now even taller than uncle! Only, you really are a bit too feminine, still like a child, your face didn’t change at all.” s.h.i.+ Linhu walked over.

“Haha, this really is too great, our Little Stone came back!” s.h.i.+ Feijiao patted s.h.i.+ Hao’s chest.

These two were the past leaders of the hunting group. Now, they already left their duties, handing them over to Dazhuang, Huzi, and the others.

s.h.i.+ Hao really was happy, his eyes slightly red. He paid his respects to the older generation.

A group of aunts came over as well. When they heard the news, they all moved out, even more enthusiastic, pinching his face, pulling at his arms, their skin thick to the point where s.h.i.+ Hao’s face couldn’t help but become slightly red.

“That child, where is he?”

At this time, the older members of the village came as well. When they heard the news, under the support of the children, a group of elders hurried over, their steps not that steady, hurrying to the village entrance.

“Grandpa, Grandpa Chief!”

s.h.i.+ Hao screamed out. He pushed aside the crowd, rus.h.i.+ng over, immediately supporting an elder at the very front. It was precisely the old clan chief s.h.i.+ Yunfeng, as well as the one who raised him up.

“Child, you finally came back. I didn’t think that I would be able to see you again in this life!” The old clan chief s.h.i.+ Yunfeng was extremely moved, tears tumbling down his aged face.

He didn’t have children, never taking a wife in the village, but he raised s.h.i.+ Hao up, treating him as his own. Right now, these emotions were hard to suppress.
