Chapter 227: Back To That Key Moment ⑥


TL: Resonance

    尚可再次恢复神智时,已经进入下一个世界,灵魂与一棵蘑菇融合在一起,自动吸收天地精华,开始缓慢修炼。

When Shang Ke regained consciousness once again, he had already entered the next world. His soul fused with a mushroom, automatically absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, and began to cultivate slowly.

    他这次来到阎戮所在的世界了吗?

Did he come to the world where Yan Lu was this time?

    【修炼进度67%,预计三十年内可化形。】系统友情提示。

【Cultivation progress: 67%. Expected to be able to transform within thirty years.】 The system gave a friendly reminder.

    三十年……想到自己还要做三十年的蘑菇,尚可就觉得有些晕眩。

Thirty years…  Shang Ke felt a little dizzy thinking about the fact that he still has to be a mushroom for thirty years.

    他穿越到还没遇见阎戮之前了吗?

Did he travel back to the time before he met Yan Lu?

    【目前处于阎戮渡过天劫、进阶为神君的三十年后。】

【It’s currently thirty years after Yan Lu overcame the heavenly tribulation and became a god.】

    尚可闻言,心中喜悦,随即又发起愁来。阎戮成为神君,岂不是已经进入神界了?自己现在还是一棵连化形都不会的小蘑菇,要修炼到什么时候才能去找他?

Shang Ke was first delighted at the news, then he started to worry. If Yan Lu became a God, doesn’t that mean that he has already entered the gods’ realm? He was still a little mushroom that can’t even transform, how long does he have to cultivate before he can start looking for Yan Lu?

    【亲爱的宿主请放心,阎戮在宿主‘死亡’后强行渡劫,结果导致心魔入侵,杀戮缠身,修为大减,如今依然在修真界徘徊。】

【Please do not worry dear Host. Yan Lu forcefully overcame the heavenly tribulation after the ‘death’ of Host. but that resulted in the growth of his inner demons, causing him to massacre and greatly reduced his cultivation. He is currently still wandering in the cultivation world.】

    什么?发生什么事了?他现在在哪里?尚可无视系统语气中的幸灾乐祸,只想知道阎戮的现状。

What? What happened? Where is he now? Shang Ke ignored the gloating in the system’s tone. All he wanted to know is the current situation of Yan Lu.

    【亲爱的宿主,你现在还是先安心修炼吧,等可以化形之后再去找他。】系统留下这句话后便隐匿了。

【Dear Host, you should first cultivate without worries for now and go find him when you can transform.】 The system left this sentence and then went into hiding.

    尚可想了想,尝试用灵识,四处寻找阎戮的踪影。以他目前的实力,灵识只能笼罩方圆五千米的范围。但他并不气馁,每天都会在修炼之余,对他所能触及的地域进行搜索。日复一日,从未停息。

Shang Ke thought about it and tried to use his spiritual sense to look around for Yan Lu’s trace. With his current strength, his spiritual sense could only cover a radius of 5,000 meters. But he was not discouraged. Every day during his spare time after cultivation, he searched the area within his reach. He did so day after day and never stopped.

    两个月后,尚可终于在一座小城外找到了他。但他此时的模样,尚可几乎不敢认。

Two months later, Shang Ke finally found him outside a small city. But his appearance at that time, Shang Ke almost didn’t recognize him.

    曾经潇洒不羁、被称为“隐圣”的阎戮,如今衣衫褴褛,披头散发,浑浑噩噩地在山间游荡。身为高高在上的神君,本该受万人敬仰,如今却任人欺凌,活得如同乞丐一般。

The once dashing and unrestrained Yan Lu who was known as the “Hidden Saint”, was now wandering around the mountains muddled and in ragged clothes and messy hair. As a high and mighty god, he should have been revered by all. But now, he was bullied by others and living like a beggar.

    尚可的灵识一直追随着他,看着他无知无觉地历经人间冷暖,风餐露宿,四处流浪,心痛得无以复加。

Shang Ke’s spiritual sense kept following him, watching him wander around and unknowingly experiencing the cruelty of the world. Shang Ke saw Yan Lu ate in the cold, slept in the open and wandered about, and his heart ached beyond measure.

    忍了一个月,尚可终于还是忍不住了,决定强行化形!

After enduring for a month, Shang Ke finally couldn’t stand it any longer and decided to forcibly transform himself!

    【亲爱的宿主,强行化形将严重影响日后的修行,请慎重考虑。】系统适时提醒。

【Dear Host, forced transformation will have a serious impact on your future cultivation, please consider carefully. 】The system gave a timely reminder.

    距离完全化形还有三十年,尚可怎么可能任由阎戮疯疯癫癫地漂泊三十年?用几百年的修为换他几十年的安闲,也是值得的。

There are still 30 years to go before he could fully transform, how can Shang Ke leave Yan Lu to wander around like a madman for 30 years? It would be worthwhile to exchange a few hundred years of cultivation for a few decades of peaceful mind.

    打定主意,尚可不顾系统的劝阻,开始凝聚妖丹,强行进化。

After deciding so, Shang Ke began to condense his demonic core and forcefully evolve despite the system’s advice.

    三天后,山崖边突然闪耀出一片炫目的白光,一道模糊的人影缓缓在光芒中凝结,最终化为一位俊秀的少年。

Three days later, a dazzling white light suddenly shone at the cliffside. A blurry figure slowly condensed in the light, eventually transforming into a handsome young man.

    少年全身赤裸,一头如雪的短发随风轻舞,身姿优雅,气质灵秀,魅惑天成。

The young man was naked with snow-like short hair dancing in the wind. He had an elegant posture, a great temperament and was charming.

    此少年正是刚刚化形成功的蘑菇精尚可。他用法力给自己幻化了一套衣物,暂作遮体之用。

The young man was the newly transformed mushroom spirit, Shang Ke. He used his power to create himself an illusion set of clothes, temporarily using it to cover his body.

    正在这时,眼角余光瞥见一道白影闪过,定睛望去,赫然是一只圆滚滚的垂耳兔。它几个纵跃蹿过来,箭一般地扑到尚可怀里,一口咬住他的脖子。

At this moment, he caught a glimpse of a white figure out of the corner of his eye. When he looked towards it, he saw a round droopy-eared rabbit. It leaped over with a few jumps, rushed into Shang Ke’s arms like an arrow and bit him on the neck.

    这是哪里冒出来的逗比兔子?尚可拽住它的耳朵,将它从自己脖子上扒下来:“你是来给我开荤的吗?”

Where did this comical rabbit come from? Shang Ke grabbed it by the ears and removed it from his neck: “Have you come to deliver me your meat?”

    兔子张牙舞爪,一副凶狠的模样。

The rabbit brandished its teeth and claws and looked fierce.

    “虽然我现在是蘑菇,但也不是随便什么兔子都能吃的。”尚可鄙视地看着它,“别以为咱们蘑菇一族好欺负,我已经冲出食物链,达到你们这些兔子无法企及的高度了。”

“Although I’m a mushroom now, I can’t just eat any rabbit.” Shang Ke looked at it in disdain and said, “Don’t think that our mushroom family is easy to bully, I’ve already broken out of the food chain and reached a height that you rabbits can’t reach.”

    兔子也不知道听懂没有,哼哼唧唧,逐渐停止了挣扎。

Not sure if the rabbit understood him or not, but it whined and gradually stopped struggling.

    尚可放开它,嫌弃道:“算你走运,我最近吃素,对兔肉不感兴趣,你自己玩儿去吧。”

Shang Ke let it go and said in disgust, “Count yourself lucky. I’m a vegetarian these days and I’m not interested in rabbit meat. Go play by yourself.”

    说完,尚可不再理它,循着阎戮的位置追踪过去。

After saying so, Shang Ke no longer cared about it. He followed after the trace of Yan Lu.

    阎戮此刻正扛着三袋沙石,在工头的驱使下,懵懵懂懂地跟着其他劳工一起朝岸边走去。两天前,工头见他身体强壮,痴痴傻傻,便将他当作免费劳力给带了回来。结果发现他不仅力大无穷,任劳任怨,而且不用工钱,吃得也很少,简直就是所有工头梦寐以求的好劳力。

Yan Lu was carrying three bags of sand and gravel at the moment, and was ignorantly driven by the foreman to follow the other laborers toward the shore. Two days ago, the foreman saw that he was strong but foolish, so he brought him back as free labor. As it turned out, not only was he strong and hardworking, he didn’t need any pay and ate very little. He was basically a good laborer that all foremen dreamed of.

    有他加入,工作效率成倍提升,他那份工钱也被工头据为己有。

With him on board, the work efficiency increased exponentially, and his share of the wages was kept by the foreman.

    傻傻的阎戮完全没意识到自己被别人占了便宜,只要不抢他的戒指,让他干什么都无所谓。

The foolish Yan Lu was completely unaware that he was being taken advantage of, and as long as no one took his ring, it doesn’t matter what he was made to do.

    当尚可找到他时,他正躺在一堆满身汗臭的糙汉子中间,睁着眼睛直愣愣地盯着上方的草棚。

When Shang Ke found him, he was lying amongst a bunch of sweaty, smelly rough men, staring straight up at the thatched shed with his eyes wide open.

    卧的哥!你到底是怎么把自己弄得这么惨的?

What the fuck! How the hell did you make yourself so miserable?

    尚可冲过去,一把抱住阎戮:“终于找到你。”

Shang Ke rushed over and embraced Yan Lu: “I finally found you.”

    接着,尚可带着阎戮离开工地,走出小城,径直深入山林。

Shang Ke then took Yan Lu away from the construction site, out of the small town, and straight into the mountains.

    来到湖边,尚可将阎戮身上破烂的衣服脱了个干净,拉着他走进湖里,开始帮他清洗。

When he arrived at the lake, Shang Ke took off Yan Lu’s tattered clothes, dragged him into the lake, and began to wash him.

    阎戮那头顺直的黑色长发,如今沾满油渍和污垢,如稻草一般纠结在一起,嘴角周围胡须拉碴,皮肤上仿佛覆盖了一层泥垢。尚可用力搓洗了半天,才勉强恢复它的原貌。

Yan Lu’s originally long, straight and black hair was now covered with oil and dirt, and was tangled together like straws. The area around his mouth was covered by his cluster of beared, and his skin seemed to be covered with a layer of dirt. After a long time of vigorous scrubbing, Shang Ke barely managed to restore his original appearance.

    整个过程,阎戮都很配合,或者说他压根没有反抗的意识。

Throughout the entire process, Yan Lu was very cooperative. Or rather, he didn’t have the awareness to resist at all.

    尚可一边帮他清洗,一边为他感到心酸。足足花了一个时辰,终于将他洗得白白净净,光彩照人。换上新衣裳,隐约可见昔日的风采。

Shang Ke cleaned him while feeling sad for him. It took a full two hours before he finally washed him clean and radiant. After helping Yan Lu put on new clothes, his former elegance could faintly be seen.

    “阎戮,我们以后就在这座大影山定居吧。”

“Yan Lu, let’s settle down in this Great Shadow Mountain from now on.”

    你已经走过太多的路,杀过太多的人,也受过太多的苦,所以,不要再理会世间的纷争,闲适地享受生活,在与世隔绝之地,慢慢修炼。

You have traveled too much, killed too many people, and suffered too much. Therefore, stop paying attention to the strife in the world anymore. Enjoy life leisurely, and cultivate slowly in a place isolated from the world.

    尚可用竹子在山间搭建了一座茶寮,作为两人的栖息之所。

Shang Ke built a teahouse in the mountains with bamboo to serve as home for the two of them.

    将一切安排妥当,已是深夜时分。尚可突然感觉一阵乏力,身形一闪,骤然消失在原地,只留下一堆散落的衣物。

It was late in the night when he finished arranging everything. Shang Ke suddenly felt a burst of fatigue. His body flickered and suddenly disappeared, leaving behind a pile of scattered clothes.

    阎戮眨眼间就发现尚可不见了,眼中闪过一丝恐慌,彷徨无措地四下张望。

Yan Lu noticed that Shang Ke was gone after he blinked his eyes, and panic flashed in his eyes. He looked around helplessly.

    “这呢,这呢。”尚可的声音从下方传来。

“Here, over here.” Shang Ke’s voice came from below.

    阎戮低头一看,只见一棵白色的小蘑菇伫立在院子当中,对着他摇头晃脑:“别担心,我每隔几天都会变成蘑菇,吸收地气,孕养精魄,第二天就能重新化形了。”

Yan Lu looked down and saw a small white mushroom standing in the middle of the courtyard, shaking its head at him, “Don’t worry, I will turn into a mushroom every few days, absorbing the earth’s energy to nurture my spirit. I will be able to transform again the next day.”

    阎戮缓缓躺下来,靠在小蘑菇身边,目不转睛地看着他。

Yan Lu slowly lay down and leaned next to the little mushroom, looking at him intently.

    “别躺在这里,回屋里睡去。”尚可叮嘱他。

“Don’t lie here, go back inside to sleep.” Shang Ke urged him.

    阎戮像是没听到一般,眼睛依然一眨不眨地盯着他看。

Yan Lu seemed as if he didn’t hear Shang Ke as his eyes were still staring at him unblinkingly.

    “好吧,你高兴就好,下次我一定会记得把自己种在屋子里。”

“Fine, as long as you’re happy. I’ll remember to plant myself in the house next time.”

    夜风习习,四周一片宁静。

The night breeze was gentle and the surrounding was quiet.

    不知过了多久,一直沉默的阎戮突然用沙哑的声音低喃道:“小蘑菇,原来你是小蘑菇……”

After a long period of time, Yan Lu, who had been silent throughout, suddenly murmured in a hoarse voice, “Little Mushroom, so you are Little Mushroom…”

    声音中带着几分喜悦,又带着几分眷恋,仿佛漂泊了许久的心,终于找到了它的归属……

His voice contained joy and also nostalgia, as if his heart that has been wandering for a long time finally went back to where it belongs… 

    第二天,尚可重新幻化成人形,又给满身泥土的阎戮换了身衣服,然后带着他去山里采野茶,顺便搜集一些合用的木材、食材、矿物等等,装点他们的茶寮。

The next day, Shang Ke transformed back into his human form and changed clothes for Yan Lu who was covered with mud. Then, he took him to the mountains to gather wild tea plants, along with some usable wood, ingredients, minerals, etcetera for their tea house.

    大影山树木茂盛,灵气充沛,到处都是自然孕育的天材地宝。当然,这些天材地宝只针对普通凡人而言,在修真者眼中,生长时间低于一百年的灵物,基本和野菜山石差不多。

The Great Shadow Mountain is lush with trees and rich in spiritual energy. There were naturally formed treasures all around. Of course, these natural resources and treasures are only seen this way for ordinary mortals. In the eyes of the cultivators, spiritual items that have grown for less than a hundred years are basically like wild vegetables and rocks to them.

    尚可不追求超凡脱俗,一切随性随缘,结果就是一个背篓根本不够用。余光瞥见阎戮手上的储物戒,随口问道:“能不能借你的储物戒用一下?”

Shang Ke wasn’t aiming to do things out of the ordinary. He just wanted to go with the flow and do whatever he wanted. The result was that a back basket simply wasn’t enough. He caught a glimpse of the storage ring in Yan Lu’s hand, so he casually asked: “Can I borrow your storage ring for a while?”.

    阎戮连忙将手握成拳,收到胸口,一副生怕被抢走的紧张模样。

Yan Lu quickly clenched his hands into fists and pulled them towards his chest, looking nervous as if fearful that it would be snatched away.

    “别这么小气嘛。我只是借用一下,不会拿走的。”尚可好笑地和他商量起来。

“Don’t be so petty. I’m just borrowing it, I won’t take it away.” Shang Ke discussed with him in amusement.

    阎戮揪着眉头,犹豫了半天,最终还是把手伸到尚可面前。

Yan Lu furrowed his eyebrows and hesitated for a long time before finally reaching out his hand in front of Shang Ke.

    尚可微笑着握住他的手,这枚储物戒还是他以前用的那枚,禁制都没有变。尚可心念一动,灵识毫无阻碍地进入戒指中。紧接着,他便被存放在储物空间中堆积如山的蘑菇给惊呆了。

Shang Ke smiled and held his hand. The storage ring was the same one he had used before, and even the restrictions remained the same. With just a thought, Shang Ke’s spiritual sense entered the ring without any obstruction. Immediately after that, he was stunned by the mountain of mushrooms stored in the storage space.

    尚可抬起头看向阎戮,眼中闪烁出点点银光。

Shang Ke lifted his head to look at Yan Lu, a little silver light flashing in his eyes.

    阎戮依然是一脸迷茫,完全不知道尚可内心的震动。

Yan Lu still remained confused, completely unaware of Shang Ke’s inner shock.

    “走吧,回家。”尚可没有动用那枚戒指,只是紧紧握住阎戮的手,带着他往家的方向走去。

“Come on, let’s go home.” Shang Ke didn’t use the ring, and just held Yan Lu’s hand tightly, leading him back towards the direction of their home.

    傍晚,尚可用采集的新鲜食材做了一顿丰盛的晚餐。虽然阎戮早就过了辟谷期,但偶尔品尝一下纯天然无污染的野味也是不错的。饭后再泡上一杯清茶,置身于青山绿水间,闻着草木花香,仿佛与自然融为一体,甚是舒畅。

In the evening, Shang Ke made a sumptuous dinner with the fresh ingredients he had gathered. Although Yan Lu was long past the stage that requires him to eat, it was still good to taste natural and unpolluted wild food occasionally. After the meal, Shang Ke brewed tea. They were surrounded by green mountains and blue water and could smell the fragrance of plants and flowers. It was as if they were one with nature and it was very comfortable.

    阎戮似乎也很喜欢这种感觉,捧着热茶靠在尚可身边,眯着双眼一脸惬意。

Yan Lu seemed to like this feeling too. He held the cup of hot tea and leaned against Shang Ke, squinting his eyes with a satisfied expression.

    尚可为他检查过身体,他的修为下降许多,而且神力不纯,运行紊乱。这也是导致他神志不清的原因之一。可惜他目前的实力不够,无法帮他进行疏导。不过他们有的是时间,可以慢慢调养。

Shang Ke checked his body. His cultivation has dropped a lot, and his power was impure and circulating disorderly. This was one of the reasons for his delirium. Unfortunately, Shang Ke’s current strength was not strong enough to help Yan Lu guide it. However, they had plenty of time and could slowly recuperate.

    两人正式开始与世无争的隐居生活,尚可每天起床第一件事,就是给阎戮梳洗打扮,然后带着他进山寻宝。回来后,或布置院落,或研制美食,或炼制器物,或弄笛垂钓……晚上则变成小蘑菇,与阎戮相伴而眠。

The two of them officially began their secluded life with no involvements with the outside world. The first thing Shang Ke did when he got up every day was to wash up Yan Lu and dress him up, then take him into the mountains to search for treasures. When they came back, they would either decorate their courtyard, develop new food, refine items, play the flute or go fishing… At night, he would turn into a small mushroom and sleep with Yan Lu.

    经过几天的相处,阎戮从最初的陌生,逐渐变得越来越亲近,几乎像影子一般跟随着尚可。

After a few days of getting along, Yan Lu gradually became closer and closer to Shang Ke, from being a stranger at first, to almost being like a shadow as he followed Shang Ke around.

    半个月后,尚可的茶寮终于修整完毕,各种物品一应俱全,竹叶摇曳,清风送爽,院中花团锦簇,香气怡人。竹楼安静伫立在山野间,时而可以听到一串串清脆的风铃声。

Half a month later, Shang Ke’s teahouse finally finished. All kinds of items were available. The bamboo leaves swayed, the breeze was refreshing, and the courtyard was decorated with flowers and filled with a pleasant aroma. The bamboo house stood quietly in the mountains, and sometimes you can hear the clear sound of wind chimes.

    阎戮坐在竹亭的石凳上,望着正在挑捡茶叶的尚可。

Yan Lu sat on a stone bench in the bamboo pavilion and looked at Shang Ke who was picking the tea leaves.

    “小蘑菇?”

“Little Mushroom?”

    “嗯?”

“Yes?”

    “嘿嘿。”

“Hehe.”

    尚可:“……”

Shang Ke: “……”

    这天使般单蠢的笑容,真是让人一言难尽……

He didn’t know what to say about this angelic silly smile…
