It's troublesome, if I let my mother know that I'm going to fight hard with the hook, she won't agree. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Mu Shan looked at Zhang Jiao who rushed into the house, and kept glancing at him, hoping that he could understand the scruples in his heart.

Zhang Jiao did live up to Mu Shan's expectations, and after a little hesitation, he understood the information conveyed in Mu Shan's eyes clearly, and said with a smile: "The emperor lives up to his wishes, the kind of herb I was looking for has finally been found." It is believed that it will not be long before the talisman water that restrains the plague will be refined, and all problems will be solved. ”

"Really? This is uncompromising good news, congratulations to the great sages! Mu Shan took a step forward, blocked Qin Mei's sight with his back, raised his eyes outward, and said, "The great sage and good teacher have been working for the villagers for a day, and I have sweated profusely. Mu Shan has no other skills, but he has two strengths, so let Mu Shan pick two buckets of water for you, so you can take a bath comfortably, how about it? ”

"Okay, good, it's rare that the little brother has a heart, so I'm not hypocritical." Zhang Jiao turned around and walked out of the house boldly, and said, "How can two barrels be washed happily, at least four barrels must be served." As a guest, it's not good to let the host work too hard, and I'm not a son born in a rich family, so I'll accompany you to pick up two buckets of water. ”

Outside, the twilight grew thicker, and the heat of the day began to fall silent, replaced by an apathy that had lost the sound of laughter.

Mu Shan followed behind Zhang Jiao until he was about a few hundred meters away from the thatched hut before he calmed down and asked, "Great Sage and Good Master, you are treating the plague in the village?" ”

Zhang Jiao grinned and said with a smile: "Yes, although I can't cure the plague on the villagers, I can feed them some runic water to temporarily suppress their illness, and even if it is not good, I can buy a few days." ”

"Great sages and good teachers, then why did you bring them together?" When Mu Shan thought of the treatment suffered by Xiuniang, he couldn't help but complain a little: "When they learned that they were infected with the plague, the despair and fear in their hearts can be imagined. If you gather them together, won't you magnify their negative emotions, and how will it end if something happens again! ”

"Hehe, little brother, don't worry, nothing can happen to them." Zhang Jiao smiled and said confidently: "I asked Duxue Daoyou to watch there, with him, I will never be able to poke any Lou Zi." ”

"As for bringing them together, there's no way around it. First, only by doing so can the villagers who have not yet had a seizure be temporarily reassured. You can't have both! Sometimes, in order to allow more people to survive, it is inevitable to sacrifice a small number of people, and this helplessness cannot be changed by any sage. ”

Mu Shan looked at Zhang Jiao's face that suddenly became lost and depressed, and didn't understand what he wanted to say, so he asked puzzledly: "Sacrifice, doesn't it mean that as long as you take the Huangquan Bead in the body of the hook, you can cure this plague?" Why should they be sacrificed? ”

"Yes, that's exactly what we planned. However, if you want to lure the hook out, you always need a little bait......

Zhang Jiao looked up at the sky, and the distant night sky was reflected in his deep eyes, making it impossible to see what he really thought in his heart: "Little brother doesn't know anything, and Hook likes to eat the corpses full of despair and unwillingness before death, devouring their souls to strengthen his own resentment." Those infected with the plague will undoubtedly be its targets. Now that so many villagers have gathered together, it is enough to attract it. Twilight Snow Daoyou had sensed that the hook was approaching this way, but it seemed to be worried about something, and he hesitated. But I believe that it will not give up that piece of fat, what we need to do is to wait for the rabbit. However, once the war with the hook starts, it will inevitably affect those innocent villagers, so ......"

"Therefore, they should sacrifice their lives for the sake of the overall situation, and they should become sacrifices to others! This is what you call the inevitability of both fish and bear's paws?! ”

As soon as Mu Shan thought of those fathers and fellow villagers who looked up and didn't look down, and thought of today's Xiuniang, as well as his mother Qin Mei, who was put to death under Zhang Jiao's fluttering words, his voice began to carry a little anger and disdain, and he looked at Zhang Jiao's eyes, which also carried a bit of disdain and disdain: "Have you asked them about their wishes?" They also have families, have a future, and have things that they can't let go, why do you make such hasty decisions about their life and death, and deprive them of everything! ”

"Is there anything else you can do? …… It's not that I don't want to save them, it's that we don't have time anymore. The hook will leave Tianyin Village at any time, and when the time comes, the world is vast, where can you find it! ”

Zhang Jiao's words immediately made Mu Shan speechless, although he still disagreed with Zhang Jiao's idea, he couldn't think of any other way. And when he thought of the tone in which he had just spoken to Zhang Jiao, he couldn't help but feel a little apologetic: "I'm sorry, great sage and good teacher, I ......"

Zhang Jiao patted Mu Shan's shoulder and said earnestly: "Little brother, I didn't want to tell you about the fate of those innocent villagers, but the reason why I didn't want to hide it from you is because I can see that you will definitely not be an unknown ordinary person in the future." Jade needs to be carved in order to show its value. I hope that in the future, when you really hold the real power and have the ability to decide the fate of the world, you will be able to understand how to make trade-offs! ”

"I ......" Mu Shan looked at Zhang Jiao, who was like a master and a father, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart, with a look of hesitation on his face, and after a while, he still laughed at himself: "There won't be that day, even if there really is, I won't give up anyone!" Everyone has their own purpose and meaning of existence, there is no distinction between high and low, they are all equal, and no one has the right to deprive them of their lives! ”

"Different experiences, different times, can make a person have different opinions and decisions. Who can say for sure what will happen in the future! ”

Mu Shan looked at Zhang Jiao, who was patting his shoulder, only to feel that his eyes were full of unpredictable smiles, like the deep and vast starry sky above his head, which deeply attracted him, so that he couldn't help but follow Zhang Jiao, like in the dark night, chasing the light of the bright moon.

The dim light shines through the doors and windows of the thatched huts on the lonely streets. For some reason, Mu Shan suddenly felt that the uncertain and crumbling fire was like the fate of many villagers in Tianyin Village.

Back in the thatched house, Mu Shan saw Xiuniang beside a lamp, her head lowered, holding a needle and thread, and sewing the bear skin for him.

Under the mottled light, Xiuniang's thin and long eyelashes were blinking gently, covering the weakness that flashed in her eyes from time to time.

Mu Shan strode forward, snatched the needle and thread in Xiuniang's hand, and said softly: "Xiuniang, the serious illness has not healed, and the body is still weak, how can you work so hard." Let's go and rest first, these needlework, and then do it when you are well, and you don't have to rush for a while. ”

"I'm idle anyway, and I'm not to the point where I'm weak." Xiuniang's eyes looked out of the window deeply, and there was an indescribable fragility in her eyes: "I want to make you another bearskin jacket, and I don't know if I will have this opportunity in the future." ”

"Don't say discouragement. Didn't I promise you that you'd be fine. Mu Shan followed Xiuniang's appearance, pressed a finger on her forehead, and pretended to say: "You, why can't you be optimistic, no matter what kind of adversity, as long as you smile, there will always be a moment when the rain passes and the sky is clear." Just like the dark sky outside, there is also a beautiful moon and starlight. ”

Mu Shan's eyes rolled, and he took Xiuniang's hand and pulled her straight out of the house: "Xiuniang, take you to see something, I promise to make you unforgettable!" ”

"Look at what? Mu Shan, let go of your hand first. ”

Mu Shan pulled Xiuniang outside the house, squeezed his eyebrows, and said with a mysterious smile: "Xiuniang, didn't you ever say: 'Kunpeng spreads its wings and rises with the wind, soaring up to 90,000 miles, carrying the blue sky and traveling to the void, and seeing the prosperity of the world'." Do you want to soar in the sky and see what the lights of thousands of homes in this world are? ”

"What nonsense, how can there really be a god like Kunpeng in the world. What's more, soaring into the sky, that's something that only immortals can do....... What are you doing, why did you put a bearskin on me on a hot day......"

"Shhh Mu Shan interrupted Xiuniang's question, draped the bear skin on Xiuniang, and then hugged her tightly from behind, and said softly: "I didn't tell you to open your eyes, you must not open them." Also, don't panic about what you see for a while. ”

On the armor on Mu Shan's body, pieces of rune paper began to extend backwards from the pipa bone behind him, rapidly evolving, turning into something like a mixture of fish scales and feathers, and gradually forming two wings about two feet away, suddenly inciting, bringing a gust of wind, rising into the sky.
