Chapter 285: I Am His Opportunity
"Your Excellency Dongfang, I have searched the city, but no one wants to go. ”
The voice also came from behind itself.
"I see. ”
Dongfang Shuo turned his head and smiled confidently, "But it doesn't matter, because I have already found a third candidate." ”
At this time, Yang Dongsheng was walking in his direction.
"Found it?so fast?"
Yang Dongsheng asked suspiciously as he walked.
But vaguely seeing that there was still a person standing in front of Dongfang Shuo, he calmed down a little, but because that person was blocked by Dongfang Shuo, Yang Dongsheng couldn't see the other party's face clearly.
"But Your Excellency the East. Yang Dongsheng asked, "You won't be threatening others, will you?"
"How is it possible, I think it's this kind of person?" Dongfang Shuo smiled, "I'm just tempting, not coercing." ”
"That's good. ”
Yang Dongsheng nodded, at this time he was already close to Dongfang Shuo, and the face of the person in front of Dongfang Shuo was gradually revealed, "So what is this brave child......
The moment he saw his face clearly, his footsteps suddenly stopped.
“...... Who ......"
Then, the last word came out of his mouth, and then his eyes widened sharply, "Is that him?"
And at this moment, all the emotions on the young man's face disappeared in an instant, and he completely hid it.
"What's the matter, City Lord Yang, is there anything wrong?"
Dongfang Shuo looked at Yang Dongsheng, who had a strange reaction, and immediately asked.
Yang Dongsheng frowned and said, "Obviously, the city is so big, anyone can choose, why did Your Excellency Dongfang choose this person?"
"Why can't it be him?"
"Why can't it be me?!"
The two sentences were released from Dongfang Shuo and the boy's mouths almost simultaneously.
At this moment, the young man's face was filled with incomprehension, doubt, and anger.
Yang Dongsheng pursed his lips and said, "How do you say this......?" This young man, he is the son of a sinner. ”
"The son of a sinner?"
Dongfang Shuo was stunned.
Immediately, he looked back at the boy.
At this moment, the young man's eyes also showed a look of disbelief.
For as long as he can remember, the people of the city have hated him. But why he hated him, he had never heard of the reason, and no one had ever told him.
He had only heard of the phrase "son of a sinner" for the first time.
"Why...... Why should I, who know nothing, bear the sins of a man I have never met!"
The teenager roared.
"From the time I was sensible until the old man died of illness, I never caused trouble to anyone, why don't you guys want to treat me?"
"Whose son am I, what does it have to do with me, is it up to me to choose, and why do I have to endure the unwarranted discrimination and prejudice of your gang from the moment I was born?"
"Do you think that I was born to be lazy and lazy, and I am willing to let myself steal chickens and dogs? You forced it all out, do you think I didn't think about being self-reliant? Have you given me a chance?"
"Why should I be defined by you as a 'son of sinners' as soon as I was born?
There was a roar, so that this clean street was also filled with sound for the first time in a long time.
Listening to the young man's roar, Yang Dongsheng squinted, and his eyes were also mixed.
"City Lord Yang. ”
Dongfang Shuo suddenly spoke, "Lao Tzu is guilty, you go and dig Lao Tzu's grave and whip Lao Tzu's corpse." As for this guy, from today onwards, he is the third spot. ”
These words made Yang Dongsheng stunned for a moment.
And not only Yang Dongsheng, but the young man on the side was also slightly stunned.
Before the catharsis just now, he was ready to go back to his original life.
But the person in front of him is as if he hasn't heard anything, why is he willing to let him be a 'partner'?
I'm obviously ...... O son of a sinner!
The boy couldn't figure it out at all.
"Since Your Excellency Dongfang said so...... After all, there will be no problem with this, so let's do it according to the will of Your Excellency Dongfang. In the end, Yang Dongsheng chose to compromise.
After all, if you can't find someone, that's the only way to go.
Dongfang Shuo hooked the corners of his mouth, and then looked back at the young man.
"Hear me, you've got a chance to be fed and clothed from now on. Dongfang Shuo said.
The young man raised his head and looked at Dongfang Shuo.
But there was silence, not a word.
"In that case, I'll go back to the City Lord's Mansion first, this young man...... Before leaving, there should be one thing to do, and when that thing is done, let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion. Yang Dongsheng said.
As soon as the words fell, he turned and left.
"One thing?"
Dongfang Shuo was puzzled.
At this time, when Yang Dongsheng left, the young man finally opened his mouth.
"Why me?"
The boy asked.
Dongfang Shuo was puzzled: "What is it, why are you? What is the reason for this? Didn't this happen to meet you?"
"If it weren't for me today, would you have persisted like this?"
"Of course, it wouldn't make a difference if it was someone else, would it?"
"But I'm ...... I'm obviously the son of a sinner, and that person just now ...... too" At this point, the young man couldn't help but bow his head.
But Dongfang Shuo raised his hand at this moment, held up his head alive, and made him look up.
"That's the sin of a guy you don't know all about, why should you bear it if you don't know anything?" Dongfang Shuo said, "Isn't this what you said yourself just now, why did you forget it so quickly?"
"......"
"No, however, all living beings in the world are created equal, at least in terms of personality, there is no distinction between high and low. Dongfang Shuo said, "You guy, since you think that those people are wrong, and you want to deny those people, you will follow through with me as always." How can you say that 'son of a sinner'?"
“......”
Next, there was the silence of the teenager.
However, at this time, the inner world of the teenager has changed a lot.
But in a sense, it should not have changed.
After all, he was born with numbness and didn't care. So, now it's just a matter of getting back on track after a brief period of wavering.
"You don't know anything, not even my sinful father, who has committed a crime, to say such things. The boy said.
Dongfang Shuo smiled: "That's the least important thing, right? Besides, don't you know it yourself?"
The boy also smiled: "That's what I said." ”
Then, Dongfang Shuo looked at the boy.
"Speaking of which, do you have something to do?" Dongfang Shuo asked, "What City Lord Yang said just now." ”
The boy nodded.
If he were to leave, he might really have something to do.
But he didn't say much, and turned and walked in a certain direction.
Seeing him nodding and leaving, Dongfang Shuo was also stunned for a moment.
"But it's also strange, how can Yang Dongsheng know his mind so well?" Dongfang Shuo wondered.
But after thinking about it, he couldn't get any results, so he could only forget about these and set out to catch up.
A moment later, the two of them came to the outside of a ruined temple.
After entering the temple, even the big Buddha inside was dilapidated, apparently damaged.
"This place has been disturbed by monsters, so all the residents are gone, and the west side of the city is completely empty. The boy said as he walked towards the back of the temple.
Dongfang Shuo asked, "In that case, aren't you afraid, demon beast?"
"Of course I'm afraid. But to be honest, I've never been out of town, so I've never even seen a monster look like it. The boy said.
Speaking of which. Dongfang Shuo said, "Since you have never met your biological parents, have you been living in this temple all these years?"
The boy nodded.
"Ten years, I've been here for ten years in a blink of an eye. The young man said, "The old man said that I am thirteen years old this year, and he picked me up ten years ago, so it means that I still have a father and mother before I am three years old." Other people's three-year-old memories can be remembered to some extent, but I am an exception, I don't remember everything before I was picked up by the old man. ”
"Old man?"
Feeling that the atmosphere was wrong, Dongfang Shuo immediately diverted the topic.
The young man smiled: "Yes, it was an old beggar who picked me up and raised me for a while. Finally...... Didn't I starve to death ten years ago? ”
"Really?"
Dongfang Shuo nodded thoughtfully, but then seemed to sense something, so he asked, "But why for a while?"
The boy glanced at him.
At this time, the two had already bypassed the ruined temple.
Behind the ruined temple, there seems to be a courtyard.
The young man suddenly quickened his pace, and Dongfang Shuo followed behind, naturally speeding up his pace.
"Because ......"
By the time the boy answered, he had already entered the backyard.
And when Dongfang Shuo followed him to the backyard, his footsteps paused slightly, and he understood in an instant.
The backyard is not large, only about a dozen zhang in range.
It's obviously behind the ruined temple, the most unlikely place for anyone to clean, but it's surprisingly clean, and there aren't even a few weeds.
However, in the middle of this courtyard, there is a small dirt bag.
In front of the earthen bag, there is a low wooden monument.
"It's ...... Tomb?"
"Well, old man. ”
After the boy answered, he walked to the tomb.
After some prostration, he began to talk to the 'old man' as if no one was around.
Dongfang Shuo also quietly withdrew at this moment.
After waiting in the front yard of the ruined temple, the boy reappeared in front of him.
"So, let's go. ”
"Good. ”
Dongfang Shuo nodded.
But what is certain is that this guy should have no worries from now on, right?
Although he just made up the numbers, after all, he was going to take him to the spiritual realm in the future, and he had to be cultivated to some extent. Moreover, according to common sense, the teenager with a story met under this kind of plot will inevitably be a person with unlimited prospects.
"System, this guy's talent should be very good, right?" On the way, Dongfang Shuo looked at the young man and asked the system in his heart.
The system replied: "Lower than average, it can even be counted as waste." ”
"Eh...... what will happen to him?"
"Solution: No. If there is one, the system will directly determine and ask the host to make a feud with it. ”
"And he...... Just an ordinary orphan?"
"Solution: To be exact, he is a man with a story, and he is not very talented, and he has no future orphans. ”
“...... Needless to say, it's so cruel, right?"
Dongfang Shuo's head was full of black lines, but then, he raised his head slightly, and the corners of his mouth hooked, "However, it can't be regarded as having no future, right?
