Chapter 257: Trustworthy
The gentle and humid sea breeze blows, giving the clear night sky an extra taste, salty, sticky, fishy, astringent, like a spoiled wine, originally mellow and refreshing, smooth and warm, because of poor storage, but it has a little more sour and bitter. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Liang held a wine jar with bare feet, sat on the beach with a somewhat dark expression, and watched the waves surging onto the gray and white sand again and again, and slowly receding again and again. There were more than a dozen jars scattered around him, most of which were empty, and only a few had not yet been opened.
"Here, sit down. I don't know how long it took, Li Liang suddenly said inexplicably.
"How do you know I'm coming?" As soon as Li Liang's words fell, a whirlwind blew strangely on the empty beach, and then a star suddenly shone in the night sky, and a touch of crimson crossed the sky, and a graceful woman figure appeared not far from him.
However, I don't know what kind of means the woman used, I can only see her bright red body, but I can't appreciate her face, I only feel that her head is misty, as if it is completely integrated into the dim night.
"Hehe, old lover, can't you think of this?" Li Liang didn't look at her, just smiled softly and said casually.
The woman sat down slowly, raised her hand to take a jar of unopened wine, took a few sips and asked softly, "Since you already know, why do you want to see me now?"
Li Liang did not answer her question immediately, but stared blankly at the vast sea, watching the tide wash over the gray sand, and after a while, he said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Because I am going to marry a daughter-in-law, I can no longer fulfill my promise." ”
When the woman heard this, her body trembled slightly, then she shook her head again, and whispered with some resentment: "At that time, you should stay......"
"Yes, I really should stay!, but it's a pity, I missed it, and this mistake has been missed for many years, and there is no way to remedy it!" Li Liang picked up the wine jar, poured it into his mouth, gasped deeply a few times, and said bitterly.
"Providence is like this, why bother with it......" Hearing Li Liang confide in her heart, the woman was silent for a moment, and then said in a tone that seemed to be comforting Li Liang and telling herself.
"Oh, providence? If someone else said this, maybe I would believe it, but when it comes out of your mouth, I don't believe it at all. Since I woke up in Xiaoli Village, the providence you said began to make trouble for me, again and again, step after step, ring after ring, unlucky things can always let me meet, and all the things that are bad are linked to me, and whenever it comes to the moment of life and death crisis, there will be a divine hand to save me. ”
"The head of Qinglong and that old man Yan are fighting, and under the donkey's hooves is a teleportation talisman! Xuanzong Mountain teleportation array, dozens of people will push me down! Demon Dao wanderers are rare to encounter one or two for thousands of years, I can recruit a job casually down the mountain! If only one or two of these things happen, you say it is providence, maybe it is reliable, after all, our appearance is really not good, and we should encounter one or two disgusting things, but everything can let me catch up, then it has nothing to do with appearance, right?" Hearing this, Li Liang glanced back at the woman, smiled faintly, and said leisurely.
"Well, I can't hide it from you, but I'm curious, how did you know I exist?" the woman sighed, looked down and muttered, then changed the conversation and asked again.
"Hehe, a woman's nature is to like to capture novelty, especially a little woman who has just opened up and has a sweetheart. They rely on their keen sixth sense, they will always find some subtle things, and then take them out to talk to their sisters and lovers, maybe they will say that there is nothing, or they may guess what is black is white, but as long as they carefully sort it out, the truth is not difficult to guess. Li Liang glanced at the woman and said with a smile.
"So, you know women very well?" The woman was amused by Li Liang and laughed, and her bright red delicate body trembled slightly.
"Phew, that's weird! If I really understood, I wouldn't have been tricked!" Li Liang said with a sip and a pout.
"That's not necessarily! Count, you've pursued a lot of women, although you haven't succeeded, but you've gained a lot of experience in the end, haven't you? What's more, you're good at the method of reverse deduction, you can always find the shortcomings in failure, find out the root cause in failure, and slowly accumulate it will become a woman's intimate confidant. In your words, it's the woman's friend, giggling......" When the woman heard this, she seemed to be interested, and her words were sour, and she laughed with a prickly smile.
"I'm still a lonely person, and when I sleep at night, I don't even have a warm bed, and I sleep on the kang every day, hey, sad urging!" The woman's words touched Li Liang's bitter gall, and her expression couldn't help but fade, and she said resentfully.
"You have said, 'Woe and blessing are relied upon, and blessing and misfortune are lurking,' and what you gain is not necessarily a blessing, and what you lose is not necessarily a curse, how can you be sure that after marrying a wife, she will definitely cover you with a bed?" the woman said after a moment of silence.
To be honest, I really admire those uncles who play monkeys, who make up stories for me whenever it is critical, and always let me pass by happiness, and I can't find anything wrong, so I can only curse the heavens and curse the earth, and be lame with myself! Hey, do you say that those uncles have a big enmity with the sky?" Li Liang poured a few more sips of wine, wiped his mouth and said.
"Hehe, the master is right, as long as you are given enough time, even the most hidden things can be guessed by you. It's quite strange to say that you are a person, looking honest and stupid, but in fact, you are full of spirituality, delicate and terrible, I really don't know if you are smart or ......stupid" The woman was stunned, as if she was shocked by Li Liang's words, and after a while, she shook her head and said softly.
As the saying goes, there is no absoluteness in the world, there is no normality in all things, and the smart and the stupid go hand in hand. Those monkey masters, who think they are extremely smart and can control everything, but in fact, they dig holes for themselves again and again, and they dare to give me a complete body, and actually let me know their existence, putting aside right and wrong, just talk about this kind of practice, if Lao Tzu grows up, what do you think they will do?" Li Liang smiled sheepishly, then looked up at the starry sky, shook his head and said.
"What if, what if they're for your good?" the woman hesitated for a moment before asking softly.
"Hehe, well, I can only say that I will leave them a way to live, their limbs are all incomplete, and their bodies are not injured, so I dare not guarantee it, after all, for migrant workers like me, it is better to be reasonable than to use actual relief to relieve anger, and there is a chance to forgive under the fist. Li Liang smiled faintly.
"You've changed!"
"Hey, you've said that a few times, haven't you?"
"Really, I don't remember!"
"Women, sell cute and foolish things, pretend to be cute and fool people, and have the ability to do it!"
"Do I have it? Besides, with your current cultivation, I don't sell cute, I don't pretend to be cute, but I can't see it, right?"
"Can't you hear the sound?
"Oh? cluck...... Tell me, what kind of expression do I have now?"
"A thief's smile on his face!"
Under the lonely starry sky, the waves gently caress the beach, Li Liang and the woman each hold a jar of wine, you say, I chat, occasionally there will be a woman's laughter and Li Liang's sigh. The relationship between two people, like a husband and wife, like a lover, or two friends who have reunited after a long absence, is slightly bitter in sweetness, and maintains a certain distance in closeness.
At this time, the iron-locked young man who was called "Brother Long" by Li Liang was still hot and humid in his soul space, still dim and dim, and there was a dilapidated and old thatched house, the faint lights were beating lightly, and the young man was still the unkempt and skinny unlucky appearance, like a sealed picture scroll that would be difficult to eternal. It's just that the person opposite him is no longer Li Liang, who is at a loss, but Mo Baosheng, the "Immortal Ancestor" wearing a yellow short jacket and trousers.
"I wish my junior brother, don't come here after many years!" The two looked at each other for a long time, and Mo Baosheng said indifferently with a shallow sneer on his face.
"Hmph, just tell me if there's anything going on!" the young man snorted coldly when he heard this, and replied in an unkind tone.
"Hehe, Senior Brother Zhu, I can't imagine that after so many years, you are still that stinky temper, impatient, and not calm at all, it seems that you still haven't eaten enough!" Mo Baosheng smiled coldly and said contemptuously.
The young man gritted his teeth, squinted his eyes slightly, and wanted to refute a few words, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, and just said coldly: "Hmph, I don't have to worry about my affairs, Senior Brother San, just say it if you have something to do today, please go back if you have nothing to do, you and I have no love for you, I don't have the heart to chat with you!"
"Oh? Hehe, I wish my junior brother because of some trivial things in the past, right? That's right, for no reason, I was calculated by my relatives, my heart and soul were severely damaged, and my body was locked, so I could only sleep in such a broken place, and no one would feel good if I changed it. But who is to blame for this? Blame me for being too smart, or do I blame myself for being too stupid?" Mo Baosheng heard this, the corners of his mouth pulled up wickedly, and he stared at the young man and said coldly.
Mentioning the sad past, the young man's face couldn't help but turn a little colder, and a tyrannical killing aura was revealed, as if he would rush out at any time to tear Mo Baosheng apart, but after hesitating for a while, he didn't make a move, nor did he say anything, just slowly lowered his head, looked at the clenched fist and fell into thought.
Mo Baosheng saw the change in the young man's expression, except for the flickering eyes, there was no movement on his face, as if he had expected him to succumb to himself, but now it was a little worse, so he spoke again: "Senior Brother Zhu, back then, the eight of us senior brothers worshiped under the Daoyi Holy Ancestor together, went through hardships, and cultivated diligently, what did we do? Is it a long longevity, a strong cultivation, or a high glory?" If you want me to say, these are not these, but to not be bullied, not to look at other people's faces to live, not to crawl in the dust. ”
"The immortal way is ruthless, the demon way is unrighteous, the Shinto way is loveless, and the demon path is merciless, this is what the old man taught us, and it is also the survival rule of the way to find the way. The weak eat the strong, the survival of the fittest, when you have a bond in your heart, you will be tired by them, and you will be hurt by them, in this ruthless and unrighteous, loveless and merciless world, they are your fatal weakness, and your 'Tiangang Town Dragon Lock' is the best proof!"
"Maybe you will say that this is my plan, maybe you will think that if it were not for my betrayal, you would not be like this, and maybe you will hate and anger, for the sake of my own selfishness, I don't remember brotherhood, the friendship of teachers, sow discord, and kill the killer, it's just not as good as a beast!
"So, you are stupid! You are stupid! You deserve today's fate! You obviously know that the 'Tianyan Plate' is not in the hands of Senior Brother, and you are not his opponent, but because he is very close to Senior Sister Seven, he has been in pairs all day long, and he is jealous, so he believes my lie and makes a move on him, in fact, you know very well in your heart that everything is just an excuse for you to take revenge on him. ”
"As for the senior brother, hehe, the most confident thing in his life is his respect for his master and the righteousness of our senior brothers, but it is out of such a stunned young man as you, and he denies everything he has done his best to build, how can this not make him crazy? However, I still underestimated him, I didn't expect that he still had the strength to kill me even though he was seriously injured, if it weren't for being too obsessed with affection, I think his cultivation would have improved a lot. ”
"Later, the seven of us demarcated the continent and called our ancestors respected, saying that it was preaching and teaching the Dharma to all things in heaven and earth, but in fact it was just a truce to heal our wounds. Those ants in the lower realm, thinking that they have held our stinky feet, can fly to the upper realm with a few words of flattery, hmph, they don't want to think about it, just with their mortal bodies and mortal bodies, they are also worthy of going to the Makutian Continent?
"Now, I already have the 'Immortal Law Body' of Yin and Yang Synergy, and my cultivation strength has gone further, and it is just around the corner to break through the void and return to the Curtain Heaven Continent. Moreover, I still have the mutation of the 'Dao Nian Heart Soul Blood', as long as you are willing to obey me, I will give it to you, with the blood of your divine beast, it must not take much time to recover your strength and turn back into the dragon king that everyone respects, hehe, which is more important, I wish the junior brother to think about it!"
The young man clenched his fists and listened to Mo Bao's speech with a solemn expression, while his heart was constantly calculating. A mistake made at the beginning, which led to being locked under the sea for millions of years, at the beginning, for a selfish desire, let the brothers who were all the same brothers turn against each other, at the beginning because of greed and lust, but they made themselves suffer, the steel is piercing, and the iron lock is added, and now the person who once provoked himself can let himself regain his freedom, should he believe him, or should he give up this golden opportunity?
After a long silence, the young man asked hoarsely, "Why do you make me believe you?"
"Hehe, do you still have a choice?" Mo Baosheng pursed the corners of his mouth and said lightly.
"The Immortal Dao is ruthless, so why do you still need to cultivate? The Demon Dao is unrighteous, and all living beings have different hearts, so who can drive them together? The Shinto Dao has no love, what is the reason for the hard work? The Demon Dao is merciless, and it has been searching for the Heavenly Dao for tens of thousands of years, what is the meaning? Could it be that the way of cultivation is only ruthless, unrighteous, loveless, and merciless?" Hearing this, the young man lowered his head and looked at his clenched fists again, and then asked in confusion.
"Hehe, your question master and his old man have been looking for answers, and even did not hesitate to use the 'Tianyan Plate' to deduce the Heavenly Dao for tens of thousands of years, and finally disregarded the laws of the Curtain Heaven and created a strange time and space shuttle machine, in a vain attempt to create a way of sentient beings!
The young man furrowed his brow and groaned for a long time. Thinking back to the apprenticeship when he was young, the young and middle-aged people killed the Quartet, the cultivation was successful and looked down on all beings, and the challenge of the senior brother who was not self-sufficient, although with the passage of time, he made him from a weak spirit beast to a powerful dragon king, but what was lost during the period was so simple as the person he admired was robbed, meditating for millions of years, how could he not understand?
Suddenly, a strange figure appeared in his mind, some obscene, some naughty, some timid, and some unknowing, but he was so vivid, so vivid, and in the faint let him feel a trace of affinity and warmth, especially for his wife, friends, and clansmen, he did not hesitate to use the blood of his soul as a tribute, which is even more touching and admirable.
However, he seems to have a new trouble now, and he has had it before, but he chose the wrong trouble, that is, he doesn't know what this little guy will do. Thinking of this, his eyes flickered a few times, and then he asked hoarsely: "Before the Netherworld, the master gave you and the senior brother a pair of jade pendants, I want to know what words are engraved on it!"
"You mean that pair of 'Xianyuan Jade Cards', right? Mine is a 'floating' character, and Senior Brother's is a 'Rong' character. I admit that the Master's ability to look at people is indeed very clever, and he points out our shortcomings in one word, but what can we do? Living in this world of the jungle, I don't pursue vanity and fame, and there will be a lot of people to chase after it, and it depends on how to choose whether to be trampled under the feet of others or to trample people under the feet. As for you, the master had repeatedly told you to let go of your arrogance and seek the way quietly, but you didn't wave your arms to challenge the senior brother. Hehe, I wish you all the best to understand that shortcomings are not only hindering growth, but also the motivation for us to pursue a higher realm, when we have great power, shortcomings will become advantages!" Mo Baosheng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then comforted him bitterly.
"The word 'floating' changes when the sky and the earth change, the soul has the 'tolerance' of all things, let go of arrogance, quietly search, the soul is sent, and the heart is ......" The young man ignored Mo Baosheng's lengthy golden and jade words, but muttered silently, and only said inexplicably for a long time: "Li Liang should marry, right?"
"Huh, what are you talking about?" Mo Baosheng was stunned by his sudden words, and couldn't help but say. However, after finishing speaking, he widened his eyes again, and asked in succession with surprise: "Who are you talking about? Li Liang! That stupid boy? Why is he here?"
The young man looked at the flickering light, still silently reciting those few words, and he didn't hear Mo Baosheng's question until Mo Baosheng urged him to ask again, he looked down at his clenched fists, and said coldly: "Third Senior Brother, the body of my Dragon Clan Zhu Clan is the head of the Heaven and Earth Immortals, not to mention that he is on my back, even if he is thousands of miles away from me, you can't feel it, not to mention that I have already collected his rent and allowed him to live here for a long time, how can I not protect one or two?"
Speaking of this, he remembered Li Liang's sweaty and pleading face, snot and flattering expression, as well as his loud, resolute and brave determination, he couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth, and continued: "Your conditions are indeed very tempting, but someone offers a higher price than you, and in my opinion, he is more trustworthy than you, so I will not choose you again." Now, I'll go and see how he deals with the **** entanglement, this drama is much better than following you to fight and kill!"
"You, what do you mean by that?" Mo Baosheng's face changed greatly when he heard this, and a bad feeling welled up in his heart.
"I didn't tell you, can I already leave here? Oh, hehe, maybe you are too happy to be reunited with the third senior brother after a long absence, and I haven't thought about it for a while, but from now on, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to describe the brotherhood. As the so-called Tao is different, do not conspire with each other, since I wish Yun has received the gift of the way of love, it is a part of them, and your way of ruthlessness, I can only continue to die......" The young man raised his clenched fist and slowly released his five fingers, revealing a red and crystal blood bead, which was the "heart and soul blood crystal" handed over to him by Li Liang.
"'Dao Nian's soul and blood crystallization'!" Mo Baosheng couldn't help but cry out in horror when he saw this.
"I didn't expect it, hehe, I want to do business but I am not willing to put down the capital, so how can I succeed?" Glancing at Mo Baosheng with contempt, the young man swallowed the blood beads, and then slowly closed his eyes, absorbing the powerful immortal power inside. However, before closing his eyes completely, he muttered softly. "I hope I didn't make a mistake this time, little one, you must not let me down!"
Li Liang drank mellow wine, chatted happily with the woman in red, and unconsciously reached dawn. Seeing that the sky was getting white, he stretched out his somewhat sore arm, stretched his stiff body, and then looked at the woman in red with a blurred face, and said lightly: "By the way, should I call you mother-in-law in the future?" Or continue to call you Fairy Han?"
"Feel free to do so. ”
"Random? This is a big problem related to seniority, and if you call it a mistake, something will happen!"
"What could happen?"
"What's the matter! I married Xiaolan, but I call you Fairy Han, then she must not be crazy! You know, I used to talk about watching the stars with you, but now I have become a mother-in-law, even if I can accept it, can she accept it?"
"Are you sure you'll be able to marry her?"
"Not sure!"
"Hehe, that's it!"
"Hey, life is hard! Marrying a daughter-in-law depends on the development of the plot, and this doesn't make people live?"
"Hehe, I don't see any suicidal behavior on your part. ”
"Who am I? Known as Yushu Linfeng Saipan'an, a pear tree pressed by begonias, the best Xiannong jade-faced flying dragon!
"Giggle...... , you better be careful of flying and causing trouble!"
"Afraid of the ball? No matter what, Lao Tzu is also a monk now, although he is only a low-level, but he has graduated from the Xiuxian Kindergarten. Oops!"
Li Liang stood in front of the woman, bragging and bragging, not wanting the sound of galloping through the air suddenly ringing in his ears. Seeing this, he hurriedly summoned his mana and swung it quickly in the direction from which the sound of breaking the air came from, but the flying object was so fast that before he could establish an effective defense, he was hit in the head.
"Hoe, hoe, is there a mistake!" Li Liang held his bleeding head, and it took him a long time to recover from the pain, and he squinted his eyes and glanced at the woman holding a foot-long hoe with bloodstains, and shouted in surprise.
Hearing Li Liang's scream, the woman trembled slightly, as if awakened from the shock. Then, she looked up at the sun that was about to jump out of the sea, raised her hand and threw the hoe to Li Liang, her body shook slightly, and the person disappeared, leaving only a crisp word. "Empty mouth bragging, iron hoe smashed head, let's be careful when you talk in the future, your luck is bloody!"
Li Liang caught the hoe and stared at it stupidly, his heart was overturned. ", last time I kicked the red crystal copper, my toes were swollen, this time I picked up an iron hoe, my head was broken, next time if I have luck to add to my body, where should I be injured?
