Chapter 208: Parting with the Child
Before leaving Easy City, the scorpion suddenly asked to take a look at his parents and Xiaoyanagi as he left.
"It's not like we're not coming back!" said the Huntsman with a smile, but decided to take him with him after seeing the longing in the scorpion's eyes.
The ghost hunters did not enter Koyanagi's inn at the scorpion's request, but glanced at their parents and Koyanagi in the store from a distance. The business in the store is not bad because of the blood demon group's fame in this place, and no one dares to make trouble, after all, there are many guardian snakes that are about the size of a city are still circling outside the city!
"You're really not going in?" the hunter looked at the scorpion's lonely back, hesitated, and spoke.
"Xie Yi is a prodigal son who is greedy for vanity, unrighteousness and unfilial piety, and he is better dead! Now there are only scorpions in this world!" the scorpion muttered.
The ghost hunter wanted to say something, but was stopped by Qin Hai on the side, they had been together for so long, and naturally they had heard about the scorpion.
"Ghost hunter, let's go to a distant place and say!" Although Qin Hai is the weakest of the few, he is the one who reads the most and has the most knowledge, and he is the only one who knows the scorpion best.
"Brother Ghost Hunter, you don't need to persuade him anymore, do you know why he didn't dare to clarify the past?" Qin Hai asked suddenly.
"I heard him say that it was because his father was a pedantic scholar, and he was afraid that his father would hang himself because of self-blame after knowing the truth!"
"The scorpion doesn't dare to clarify the past, is it really worried that his parents will hurt themselves because of self-blame after hearing the truth?" Qin Hai asked rhetorically.
"Could it be that he is afraid that his parents will not forgive him at all!" Qin Shan interjected
"No, no, no. Qin Hai shook his head again and again, this had confused them.
"He can't forgive himself, no matter what the purpose of the action he made at the beginning, but the harm to his parents is real! He can't get past his own level!" Qin Hai said sympathetically, the ghost hunter heard this, his heart moved thoughtfully, his eyes turned to the back of the scorpion, and he only felt that he understood something, but that feeling disappeared in a flash.
"I don't understand, the big husband stands in heaven and earth, dares to love and hate, and what is there to fear? Why can't he pass his own level? I don't understand!" Huang Tianhou shook his head.
"You are a big person, and you are here to point out the existence of the country, how can you understand the love, hate, sorrow and joy of the little people?" Qin Hai sighed.
The group turned their gaze to the scorpion's erect and motionless back, and even Huang Tianhou felt a little sad, so he simply turned his head to look away, out of sight and out of mind.
At this time, Koyanagi's father in the store was keeping accounts at the counter because of his inconvenient legs, and Koyanagi and his mother were busy with a group of half-child-tall boys, and although they were very busy, everyone had a bright and full smile on their faces.
The scorpion watched quietly in the dark, no one urged him, and even the moon was surprisingly quiet. After a long time, the scorpion suddenly turned to the hunter and fell to his knees, tears and snot mixing together to make his face a mess.
The scorpion cried, he hadn't cried since he decided to protect the family in his own way, and now that he was crying, he finally showed his childish side.
"Thank you, master!" shouted the scorpion with a dirty face and a heart-rending cry at the hunter. He was sincere, and he sincerely wanted to thank the ghost hunters.
In the small shop, the parents, Xiaoliu and the little friends who accompanied him at the beginning, their smiles were deeply reflected in the heart of the scorpion, they smiled so brightly—— this is the life that the ghost hunter dreamed of letting them live, and the ghost hunter helped him do it.
The scorpion no longer thinks about whether the ghost hunter is right or evil, and no longer considers whether the ghost hunter accepts him as an apprentice is compassion or a plan, even if the ghost hunter takes his life now, he will die without regrets, from this moment on, he has made up his mind that his life is a ghost hunter, whether the ghost hunter will let him beg or kill people and set fire in the future, he will not hesitate!
The ghost hunter only felt a softness in his heart, this was a feeling that he had rarely had, he remembered that this feeling had been felt when he was a barbarian, he had felt it when he saw Sister Long Tianxin, etc., and the most recent time was when he reunited with Xuanqi and Yu Jiu, family affection! And now he felt this feeling in the scorpion.
"Get up! there's nothing to thank!" the ghost hunter resisted the urge to pick up the scorpion, and with a wave of his hand, he dragged the scorpion by the knee and helped him up. Then the group turned around and walked into the distance.
At this time, Zhuyue seemed to realize the mind of the ghost hunter, and actually walked in the opposite direction to the scorpion and bit his clothes, and before the scorpion could resist, he threw him on his back, and the scorpion was a little overwhelmed and had a feeling that it was difficult to ride a tiger.
Seeing this, Gluttony hurriedly flew to Zhuyue's head and lay on his stomach, since he met the scorpion, he rarely lay on Zhuyue's body. Zhuyue immediately let out a soft howl to express her dissatisfaction, but did not drive the gluttony down, and then chased the ghost hunters with a man and a turtle.
The ghost hunter was a little surprised when he saw this, you must know that in addition to his own month by month, not to mention trusting people, he is rarely even close to people (except for Xuanyue and Zangjiao, he is mainly afraid of Zangjiao!).
"Well, thank you! I can go by myself, let me down!" said the scorpion, trembling, and he was a little too touched to jump off by himself.
······
On the way to hunt ghosts, they met Shao San, who happened to go to the Blood Demon Group to find a ghost hunter, and after the gathering of the Hidden Dragon Academy that day, he learned from Xuan Qi that the ghost hunter was the head of the Blood Demon Group, and then thought that he was also at fault at that time when he had a conflict with the Blood Demon Group, so he planned to carry wine to make amends, which was not a good thing.
The few people were harmonious, and the barren weather liked a man like Shao San even more, so he immediately invited him to go to the hinterland of the wasteland with them. Shao Sanyi wanted to have such a big family as the Deserted Weather to eat and drink and meet the legendary Emperor of the Wasteland, and he could make himself smile from ear to ear when he thought about it, so naturally there was no reason to refuse. And with Shao San along the way, they also had more fun, talking and laughing along the way.
"The most famous thing in the wasteland is the martial arts arena, the gambling arena where some death row prisoners or slaves fight, and the killing of real swords and guns is sure to make your blood boil, and you can even occasionally see the fight between monks!"
"Before we go to see the big brother, let's go play first!"
"Okay, okay!" Shao San's eyes lit up, and everyone couldn't refuse, but the eyes of the desolate weather at this time were a little hot, as if he was looking at a cash cow, Qin Hai shook his head helplessly when he saw this, and he had already guessed the intention of the desolate weather.
At this time, Long Yi's eyes finally lit up after following the ghost hunter for a few days, and he thought of a way to stop the ghost hunter from going to the Honghuang Mountain Range, he transformed into a ghost hunter, and even the breath on his body was the same, and then he waved his wings and flew into the air to temporarily leave the ghost hunter and their side.
He knew about the battle between Lin Fei and the ghost hunter two days ago, and at this time, he paid attention to Lin Fei, trying to stop the ghost hunter by him, and at the same time, Lin Fei and Shen Xiao had just carried the god master out of the god realm.
