10. Human life is not valuable
"Child, you have such a sense of justice. But I saw that you were ruthless when you killed the zombies just now, and those zombies are all from this village. Aren't you also killing people by doing this?" Chu Yanchao looked at Wu Zhong with interest and said.
Wu Zhong naturally knew in his heart that what the other party said was just deliberately disgusting him. But seeing that no one around spoke for him, even Yue Qingyu kept silent.
Could he be wrong?
At this time, Wang Zhaoan smiled and said: "Senior, don't meet with children, but what you do does really have a bad impact." So you have to deal with the follow-up things. I don't want anyone to find our royal family. ”
"It's nature. Chu Yanchao said with a smile.
"Gone. Wang Zhaoan waved his hand and left with the five people around him.
Looking at the few people who had already flown away, Wu Zhong lost his mind for a while. And Chu Yanchao also looked at Wu Zhong playfully, as if to say what else you can do.
What can I do, I have no way to cultivate so many poor people.
Yue whispered and heard the empty news and took the lost Wu Zhong away. The sound of Chu Yanchao laughing came from behind him.
"Why don't you speak?" Wu Zhong broke free from the two and said loudly, "He obviously did something wrong!
Yue whispered and heard that the two lowered their heads and were silent, their faces full of helplessness. It is not Wu Zhong who is helpless, but their helpless self.
yes, why don't you speak, even a sentence. Usually always advertise being famous and decent, but in the face of this kind of evil spirit, he doesn't even dare to say a word, which is ridiculous.
Wu Zhong sat on the ground, he couldn't exert any strength in his body, and a strong sense of powerlessness overwhelmed him. Looking at Guli Village, Wu Zhong wanted to cry, but he couldn't.
The three of them stood in the darkness of the night for a long time, and no one spoke.
Wu Zhong looked at the night that was still like this, looking at the sky that had not changed. Why is God so indifferent? Damnation, it's funny.
"Who are they?" Wu Zhong said slowly, really lacking strength.
"Langya Wang's family. Yue said softly.
"Langya Wang's family, they are also in league with the people of Yinshan?" Wu Zhong asked.
"It's not. It can even be said that one is the right path and the other is the evil spirit, which is the opposite. ”
"Then why don't you make a move?"
"yes, why don't you make a move, maybe you don't want to turn your face with the other party because of such a thing. Yue chuckled lightly, but was a little self-deprecating.
Wu Zhong knew what she meant, and he also knew that the two of them had no choice. He slowly got up and bowed deeply to the two of them: "I'm really sorry just now, I shouldn't be angry with you. ”
Seeing this, Kong Wen hurriedly helped Wu Zhong up: "The two of us are also at fault, we usually persuade people to be kind, but we can't even say a word of justice at a critical moment." I'm ashamed. ”
"If you were like me at that time, I guess you and I would have been dead on the streets. Wu Zhong said.
If this is really the case, the Langya Wang clan will naturally still stand by and watch, and the people of Yinshan will also shoot to kill them.
The three of them were nothing more than ants to such a behemoth. The lives of nearly a thousand people can be like this, not worse than these three.
"Let's go. ”
The three of them left one after another, returned to Jitai City, and said goodbye to each other. Kong Wen was about to return to Baiyun Temple for retreat the next day, and Yue Qingyu was also preparing to go home to recuperate. This incident hit all three of them hard.
Before coming here, not only Wu Zhong couldn't imagine that it would develop like this, but even Kong Wen and the two didn't expect it to be like this, not only had they never heard of it, but they had never seen it, let alone encountered it.
The red gate of Mount Tai tourists are still weaving, only dozens of miles away from the place of the things that happened here are completely unknown, it is still the sea Yan Qingping, the scene of the prosperous world.
Back at the Taoist temple, the old man had already rested, he couldn't sleep, he sat alone on the futon in the main hall, looking at the Sanqing high above. He was not angry, resentful, and wanted to seek justice for those thousand people, but he was helpless. Time fairness is mostly like this, but I don't know how to cover up such a big thing.
Sanqing Patriarch, what should I do, can you give me an answer?
Wu Zhong sat like this until the next day. He got up to wash, incense, and prepare breakfast.
At this moment, he faintly heard a noise in the direction of Guli Village. Although Wu Zhong's ear power is excellent now, he still can't hear clearly dozens of miles away.
He turned on the TV and quickly understood.
"Now insert a message that the entire village of Guli Village in Jitai City was flooded due to a landslide, and at this moment firefighters and ambulances rushed to the scene one after another. Let's pray that they are safe and sound. ”
It turns out that Wang Zhaoan said that this is the way to take care of things. Yes, put the responsibility on nature, everything is so complete. Human beings are so powerless in front of nature that they can't get along with nature.
Pray for peace and well, no need.
Wu Zhong put the dishes and chopsticks away, and the old man Yao Qigui also got up and finished washing, and saw Wu Zhong come back with a smile on his face.
Wu Zhong saw that the old man was all safe, and finally felt some comfort in his heart.
After the two of them had eaten, Wu Zhong still returned to the main hall and sat down, but he didn't stare directly at the Sanqing Statue anymore, but closed his eyes and meditated, and began to cultivate.
From now on, he has to seize every moment, he has to be strong, he doesn't want to be unfair, he can only hope for God.
He wants to go from inducing qi, cultivating to turning into a god, to returning to emptiness, to joining the Tao, and he wants to become an immortal! Even if others can't, he will definitely be able to!
At the top of the Jing'an Division, an old Taoist was closing his eyes to recuperate, and when he heard someone knocking on the door, he called someone in.
"It's all done?" he said, closing his eyes.
"Back to Sicheng, it's all done. The man replied.
"Hmm. This matter was disgraceful to the Wang family and Yinshan, and it was seen by a few juniors, which was really excessive. Lao Dao whispered, but he didn't know what he meant by "excessive".
"Go and pass on my order, the Wang family and Yinshan will each be fined 500 catties of red copper and 300 catties of Luoyang iron. If you commit another offense next time, you will be severely punished. ”
Since then, the village of Tanari has become history.
Wu Zhong meditated and cultivated in the main hall, and Yue Qingyu did the same. She returned home and told her parents everything she had encountered. The Yue family has declined at this moment, and there is only one of them left in the clan.
His father, Yue Chongze, also agreed with his daughter's retreat and cultivation after hearing this, and he must be less involved in this matter at this time, otherwise maybe those two forces will kill people for the sake of face.
Kongwen also returned to Baiyun Temple and vowed to retreat for ten years to understand Buddhism.
The matter was thus swept under the rug.
"Is the trail chief here?"
An old woman dragged in with a man, who seemed to be her son, but the man looked reluctant and was slapped several times by his mother.
"Are you there, Chief?" she shouted again.
Wu Zhong turned around and looked, it turned out to be the grandmother of that day, and the one who came with her must have been her sick son. Seeing this, Wu Zhong hurriedly got up to greet him.
When the old man saw that the Taoist chief was there, he was immediately overjoyed, and took his son to quickly thank: "Thank you, Taoist chief, I took the talisman you gave me, and he will be fine in a few days." You talismans, O spirits!"
Wu Zhong was also happy for the old man when he saw this. The old man made a vow, and Wu Zhong took the two into the main hall.
At first, the man was a little reluctant, but because of his mother, he had to kneel down with him.
After incense, the old man put a hundred yuan on the incense case, and Wu Zhong couldn't refuse, so he had to do so.
Sending the old man away, Wu Zhong did not continue to cultivate. He squatted at the door, looking at the excitement outside, and the old man Yao Qigui was quietly drinking tea inside the door, but this short distance was like two worlds.
Wu Zhong likes to sit at the door, likes to watch the excitement on the street, and likes this earthly appearance.
Before he knew it, it was already night, and Wu Zhong had a whim and prepared to climb the mountain. The old man had inconvenient legs and feet, so he was not with Wu Zhong.
Wu Zhong changed into civilian clothes, put on a backpack, put some water and dry food in it, and prepared for the mountaineering.
Looking at his clothes, he hadn't worn them for a long time. This set is still a summer dress, and others will inevitably feel cold when they wear it, but Wu Zhong didn't feel it. The moment he walked out of the Taoist temple, he only felt relaxed.
According to local regulations, all local monks can climb the mountain for free, and Wu Zhong did not take out his documents, but spent 100 yuan to buy tickets.
He took the ticket and looked at the red door in front of him, and everything half a year ago suddenly appeared in his mind. And all this is like a world away, and it has long been a matter of people.
Wu Zhong still climbed up step by step along the mountain road, looking at the couples supporting each other, looking at the white-haired old man holding hands, looking at the lively and lovely children, and looking at everything around him.
On the way, he drank all the water, and when he got to Zhongtianmen, he bought some more, and listened to someone complaining about the price of water, and smiled slightly.
Leaving Zhongtianmen, it is a road without lights, some people take out the flashlights prepared in advance, and some people rely on the lights of their mobile phones to grope forward, fortunately, the mountain road is not rugged, there are not too many obstacles.
Wu Zhong also pretended to take out a flashlight and imitate the appearance of everyone. In fact, he didn't need to do this at all, and he no longer had to rely on natural light for his mid-stage cultivation, everything in front of him was clearly visible, even the dry lines on the fallen leaves.
Along the way, Wu Zhong saw not only scattered tourists, but also other things, ghosts and spirits. They hid themselves in the crowd and climbed together. In the eyes of everyone, ghosts are naturally invisible, but the appearance of the spirit can be seen, and it is no different from other people, only different in appearance. Presumably, this is also a way for them to integrate into society.
When he reached the top of the mountain, Wu Zhong felt the cold wind. At this time, the temperature at the top of the mountain is much cooler than at the bottom of the mountain, and some people can no longer afford to find a place to shelter from the wind.
Looking down from the top of the hill, the neon lights of the city flickered non-stop and the vehicles were faintly visible.
Wu Zhong didn't think much about it, just looked at the surrounding scenery, felt the cold wind on the top of the mountain, and sat all night.
In fact, Wu Zhong wanted to give up the cultivation path in his heart, and everything here was different from what he had expected before. Although he also fantasized about being like the protagonist in a fantasy novel, he would have the ability to turn the world upside down in an instant when he encountered the dragon in a storm, although the reality was not so, he could accept it. It's just that this world is naked and the jungle eats the strong, and he was shocked and a little scared. He was afraid that one day all this injustice would befall him.
But unfairness happens every day, and even the fairness that the world has been preaching is just a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water that people have been pursuing.
Since the world is so unfair, he has to fight for it himself, he wants to become an existence like Langya Wang and Yinshan that cannot be ignored by others, and he wants to become a top master, so that others will not ignore him, they will not take his words as a deaf ear, and they will not make the world so unfair.
He secretly swore that one day, his Wu Zhong's name would spread to everyone's ears and become an existence that could not be ignored.
