The blind old woman took a sip of the water and said, "I have a book under my pillow, which is a record I made when I used to test medicines. ”

"Medicinal herbs?" Ji Ji was a little puzzled, the blind old woman in front of him actually knew medicinal herbs.

The blind old woman said while eating steamed buns: "Don't underestimate me, a blind old woman, I used to be a famous doctor here, but unfortunately, I accidentally gambled and blinded my eyes when I tried the medicine." ”

Ji Ji hurriedly took the book and read it, which was very clearly written, how many medicinal materials and how many grams can be prepared into what medicine, what each medicinal material looks like before drying, and what it looks like after drying, all of which are clearly drawn.

"Old woman, you are amazing, these grasses are painted in such detail. Ji said, taking a big bite.

It seemed that she had not been praised for a long time, and the blind old woman laughed, finished her steamed bun, wiped her hand on her clothes, and went into the house with a stick.

"Old woman, I'll go into the mountains in the afternoon to collect medicine. ”

Fortunately, Ji Ji's strength is not small, and he can carry a lot of medicinal materials back every time, and the money for carrying medicine every day can buy enough rice for two or three days.

Every time Ji came back, he would give a lot of money to the blind old woman, and the blind old woman would not accept it every time: "I can't see with my eyes, you have to collect it yourself and make accounts, so that you can also know how much money you have." ”

Ji agreed, but Ji Ji quietly put the money in the cupboard.

Perhaps in order to thank Ji Ji, when the blind old woman went out, she also bought a pair of shoes and clothes, but the blind old woman couldn't see it, and she didn't know what color she bought, so she could only ask the lady who sold the clothes.

One evening, when Ji returned home, he found the blind old woman holding a crimson dress with some embroidery on it.

Ji Ji asked, "Old woman, is this your new clothes?"

"This is the clothes I bought for you. The blind old woman said, handing the clothes to Ji Ji.

Ji Ji looked at the neatly folded clothes in front of him and was a little moved, but with the bright clothes in front of him, Ji Ji had never worn such fancy clothes.

As a result, the clothes were immediately changed, and the fabric of the clothes was very comfortable, very *, but it was not out of shape.

"Does this dress fit, and how does it feel?"

The blind old woman sat on a stool with a stick and asked softly, like a grandmother's love for her grandson.

"Fit...... This dress is very *...... It's also very warm. As he spoke, tears rolling in his eyes, this was the first time someone had bought him clothes, and it was also the first time he had received a gift from someone else, or a gift from a human being.

The blind old woman smiled kindly and said, "I felt very comfortable touching this fabric, and the little girl who sold clothes said that this dark blue color is suitable for young men to wear." ”

"Deep ...... Dark blue?" looked at the dress on his body, and the crimson dress was not blue no matter how he looked at it.

When the blind old woman heard what Ji Ji said, she asked, "Isn't it dark blue?"

"Yes...... It's dark blue, it's dark blue in the sun, and it's not well lit in this room, so it looks black, and I love it!"

Ji Ji said, squatting in front of the blind old woman, and said, "Old woman, thank you for taking me in." ”

The blind old woman seemed a little embarrassed, touched Ji Ji's head, and said, "If you don't feel grateful for this, just add a pair of chopsticks." ”

With that, the blind old woman got up and went to the kitchen to cook.

Ji Ji looked at the flowers embroidered with dark lines on his clothes, although they were a little fancy, but he liked them very much.

"Human ...... Maybe it's still good. Ji Ji whispered.

The next day, when passing by a small shop selling clothes, Ji Ji walked into the store and looked at the little girl selling clothes in front of him, and the little girl immediately recognized the fancy clothes on Ji Ji's body.

The little girl couldn't help but laugh and said, "I didn't expect the child's clothes to fit quite well." ”

Ji Ji is not a fool, and said: "You sold this dress to my grandmother, you know what I wear it." ”

"Childe, I don't know if you're wearing it, I thought ......" The little girl was looking for an excuse to explain, but she couldn't come up with a reason.

"What do you think? about this dress, if you lie to my grandmother, I won't trouble you, don't think that my grandmother can lie to her without support. ”

Ji Ji said, pressing the little girl who sold clothes step by step.

"Childe is really sorry, not next time. The little girl who sold clothes said, and hurriedly apologized.

"No need to apologize, I just hope that next time I don't think about taking advantage of my grandma, and don't bully my grandma into not seeing. ”

After Ji finished speaking, he turned around and left.

At this time, the blind old woman walked out of the corner of the store, and the blind old woman was also a little suspicious when she heard Ji Ji's words yesterday, but she didn't expect to hear what Ji Ji said to the little girl who sold clothes.

He stayed here for three months, and during these three months, he rarely had time to rest, and basically went to carry medicinal herbs every day.

Ji Ji knew that he would leave here sooner or later, thinking that even if he left, he would have to leave something for the blind old woman, even if he couldn't do anything, leave more money, and the blind old woman's life would be a little more comfortable.

Unbeknownst to him, the monks of Buyue Mountain had already discovered him.

Suddenly, one day, the monks of Buyue Mountain found the home of the blind old woman, and the group came to surround and suppress Ji.

The blind old woman was arrested, and it seemed that she also felt that Ji Ji was not a human being, and the monks of Buyue Mountain forced the blind old woman to tell her whereabouts.

But the blind old woman just said lightly: "I don't know." ”

The monk of Buyue Mountain saw that the blind old woman had been refusing to speak, so he regarded the blind old woman as a colleague of Ji Ji.

After collecting the medicine, Ji Ji was about to go down the mountain when he saw a burst of smoke wafting from the direction of the blind old woman's house.

"Did you hear? That blind old woman turned out to be a fellow of the youkai. Ahem......"

At this time, two people came up the mountain, discussing something.

"Of course I've heard about it, and I think it's strange that if you say that she is blind and can live by herself, then there must be a problem. ”

"The smoke is too strong...... Ahem......"

"For monsters, you have to use this way, which is called killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys, and it is specially for other monsters to see. ”

When Ji Ji heard what they were saying, he threw down his back and ran down the mountain, which was several kilometers from the blind old woman's house, and Ji ran for half an hour before coming down the mountain.

The residents of the streets and alleys were all watching in front of the blind old woman's door, but none of them went up to explain to the blind old woman.

When Ji Ji walked to the blind old woman's house, the house had already been set on fire, and the figures on the pillars were no longer visible in the raging fire.

"Old woman!" shouted Ji and rushed inside.

A man next to him hurriedly grabbed Ji Ji and said, "Don't go over, that's an accomplice of the monster, and if you go in, you will be sent to death." ”

"You let me go!" he roared, flicking the man's arm and rushing in.

In an instant, the house collapsed.

The man next to him said: "This old monster has a very hard mouth, don't you think she is a good person, the monks of Buyue Mountain have found out, there is a monster in her house, she still refuses to admit it, so she was burned to death." ”

Ji Ji looked at the man and asked with a look of disbelief: "She and you have been neighbors for decades, don't you know whether she is a human or a demon? Even if it is really a demon, don't you have feelings?"

The man next to him smiled contemptuously: "Feelings, what if she is a monster and kills us all one day?"

"So you're here!" said the monk from Buyue Mountain, who walked out of the crowd and looked at him.

Perhaps because of Ji Ji's anger, the sealed cultivation was lifted all of a sudden.

"Something that is not afraid of death......"

An hour later, a fire broke out here.

Ji Ji sat on the mountain next to him, looking at the fire below, just watching quietly.

The body of the blind old woman had long since been reduced to ashes, and Ji had killed everyone—the monks and the stupid and indifferent villagers.

Ji Ji sat on the mountain and looked at the clothes on his body, and suddenly choked up......

Lian Chihao listened to Ji Ji's words, and Ji Ji's tone was like describing other people's lives, flat and a little indifferent.

Lian Chihao couldn't believe that those Buyue Mountain monks who had always been chivalrous and righteous would do such a thing, although in Lian Chihao's heart, monsters were all scourges that ate people and punished people's hearts.

Of course, it also includes the edict that was previously sealed in the ink ruler.

However, after Lian Chihao listened to Ji Ji's words, he felt that his three views had collapsed.

In Lian Chihao's heart, or in the hearts of ordinary people, the demon clan on the other side of the mountain and the sea is some reckless beasts that eat human flesh and blood, cold-blooded and ruthless

G, but just like what Ji said before, the demon clan with good intentions, the monk of Buyue Mountain who blackmailed on the giant beast that crossed the sea, the people who burned the blind old lady indiscriminately, and the villagers who watched in cold blood, it seems that compared with the demon clan in the story, these people are more in line with the definition of villains in Lian Chihao's heart.

Looking at Lian Chihao, who had been silent for a long time and his expression was uncertain, Ji Ji didn't speak for a long time, as if he remembered the blind old lady who saved him that year, and his body trembled a little for a while, and in an instant, the black mist around him began to squirm and become solid.

In just a few breaths, the black fog around him gradually dissipated, and out of the black fog came a slender and slender teenager, with a young man's moon eyebrows and starry eyes, a bewitching white hair neatly draped behind him, and his immature and handsome face and this snow-white long hair did seem a little incompatible.

Lian Chihao looked at the handsome young man in front of him, but his eyes were on the crimson embroidered robe worn by the young man, although the style was a little old, but this robe was well preserved, this robe has not faded over the years, and even the red flower above the robe has no signs of falling off, indicating that the handsome young man in front of him really cherishes this old crimson embroidered robe.
