Chapter 037 was forced to become a demon
At this time, in the tavern, the fragrance of the food wafted, and the shopkeeper shuttled quickly with the wine and food, and from time to time there was the sound of guessing the fist, talking and laughing, and the sound of cups colliding. Ye Yu's stomach rumbled for a while.
Seeing someone coming in, the shopkeeper quickly greeted him with a smile and shouted, "What do you eat?" ”
After Qingming looked around, he walked to a window position and sat down, Ye Yu naturally followed and sat opposite Qingming. After the two sat down, they greeted the shopkeeper: "Let's scald the pot of good wine first, what is the wine?"
The shopkeeper said: "There are fat geese and tender chickens." There is also a newly slaughtered ox," Qingming heard and said, "First cut four catties of cooked beef." "Just get a few more cooked dishes.
When the shopkeeper didn't go long, he brought a large plate of beef, several vegetables and vegetables, put two large bowls, and sifted wine on one side. greeted the two and said, "The two masters use it slowly, you can say hello if you have something." And he withdrew!
Qingming picked up the wine jug, and said a bowl to himself, drank it all, and shouted: "Good wine, good wine, try it quickly." ”
When Ye Yu heard this, he also poured a bowl and drank it all. When the two of them were about to eat, Ye Yu looked at Qingming and wanted to ask something, but he wanted to stop talking. I don't know how to speak.
What happened to the Ghost Hall this time was beyond his comprehension. There are too many unsolved secrets in his heart.
For example, what is the origin of the Nine Leaves Xuantian Sword, and why do so many people want to get him. There is also an inexplicable relationship between Qingming and the female corpse Duyao. Where did the power in his body come from, and why didn't Qingming let him use it. What is the secret behind the Onirido? The female corpse and the people in the Ghost Hall seemed to want to know what their bodies were. Why didn't Qingming let the mysterious man kill the head of the Ghost Li Hall. Who is that mysterious man? And the bird that he saw when he entered the mountain went there again. and what will happen to the dragon that Ye Yu killed. Ye Yu wanted to know about this series of questions.
At this time, Qingming, who had been immersed in drinking wine and eating meat, seemed to see Ye Yu's thoughts, so he said: "Boy, do you want to ask what is the teacher, you can say it! ”
"Okay, then master! I asked! I want to know, what's going on with that Ghost Li Tang?" Ye Yu asked the first question.
"Okay, I'll tell you a story for the master! After listening to this story, you will understand the matter of the Ghost Hall!" Qingming wiped the oil stains on his mouth and said.
"Today's saints, respecting Confucianism and Taoism, recruiting talents, all the people in the world yearn for the wind, and they all want to gain fame, serve the country, and return to their hometown.
In Xiqiang, there is a wise man named Chen Wuwang, whose parents died when he was a child, and he grew up eating hundreds of family meals. studied hard, and wanted to gain a reputation, but because of the princes of the court, there were few benevolent politicians and many tyrannical tyrants. But this person is stubborn, does not listen to advice, insists on wanting to gain fame, and goes to Beijing every year to participate in the scientific examination, but without exception they all fail to make the list.
I didn't give up until the fifth year, and as in previous years, I said goodbye to my neighbors and friends in my hometown and went to the capital. On this day, he had just arrived in Luoyang City and was passing under a colorful building, when suddenly a hydrangea fell into his arms from the air. He picked up his torn robe and wrapped it around the hydrangea.
And this hydrangea was thrown by Jia Ling'er, the prime minister of the dynasty and Jia Zhengjing's daughter, to choose a son-in-law. No matter who it is, as long as it receives the hydrangea, it will be Jia Linger's wishful husband. But the prime minister Jia Zheng took a closer look, and this son-in-law, who was like a son-in-law, frowned.
Say anything to get rid of this poor scholar. But what she didn't expect was that Jia Linger had a resolute attitude and said nothing and would not regret anything. In the end, I learned that if Jia Ling'er did not marry Chen Wuwang, she would be used by the emperor to marry her relatives and marry far away in the Western Regions.
But Jia Linger's move annoyed Prime Minister Jia Zhengzheng. He ordered Yahuan to take off Jia Linger's jewelry and clothes. didn't give a penny, so he drove out of the Jia family's compound. Since then, Chen Wuwang seems to have fallen in love with this girl. decided to settle down, gave up the scientific expedition, and lived a poor life with Jia Linger in his own dilapidated house.
Chen Wuwang goes to the street every day to set up a stall, and he doesn't make much money, but it is barely enough for the two of them to live. Jia Linger also responded to that sentence, "Marry a chicken with a chicken and marry a dog with a dog." "Every day at home, I live a life of husband and son with Chen Wuwang. If it goes on like this, it will be happy.
It wasn't until the third year of their marriage that they gave birth to a big fat boy, who was particularly cute. Chen Wuwang's shouting of setting up a stall became even harder. Their lives are getting more and more exciting!
But the good times didn't last long, that winter. It was a harsh winter, and the rain and snow were falling. Chen Wuwang had set up a stall for a day and was rushing back. The wind stabbed him like a knife. The whole clothes were soaked, Chen Wuwang thought of his gentle wife and lovely children, so he endured the cold and continued to move forward, seeing that the sky was getting darker, he finally arrived at the entrance of the village. In the distance, I saw a fire coming from the thatched hut in my house. He was so frightened that he rushed to the front of the house.
Looking at the raging fire in front of him, he shouted and wanted to rush inside, but was stopped by the neighbors around him. Persuaded him, the fire had been burning for a quarter of an hour, and there was no one to save him! Chen Wuwang looked at the fire in front of him, kneeling on the ground and crying hoarsely. In the end, he fainted from excessive grief.
When he woke up the next day, the fire had been extinguished! In the wreckage of the fire, he found two charred corpses, one large and one small. After taking care of the aftermath, he inquired in many ways and learned that the murderer was actually his father-in-law. When the prime minister of the dynasty, Jia Zhengzheng. He came to the Jia family's compound angrily, but before he saw Jia Zhengjing, he was beaten and his right leg was disabled.
He was resentful and determined to sue the court. But the officials protect each other, who would be willing to offend the prime minister for the sake of him, a poor scholar. Sure enough, he ran into a wall everywhere. No one is willing to clear up their grievances. In this way, he wandered to a ruined temple. The name is the Temple of Freedom. No one knows what happened in the temple, but it is rumored that he signed a contract with the evil god, the Heavenly Demon Venerable. (Heavenly Demon Venerable, the title of the Ancient Demon God.) Born in the era of the ancient flood. Fight with Pangu, three days by day. And exhausted was beheaded and deboned, and the town was in Mount Tai. )
The next day, the whole of Jiafu was burned down by an unknown fire. All over the province, men, women and children were spared. You may find this a bit cruel. But I heard rumors. When Chen Wuwang went to set up a stall that day, Jia Zhengjing sent someone to arrest Jia Ling'er and go back, and according to the will of the Holy Lord, he went to make peace. Originally, Jia Linger had already accepted her fate and agreed to go to get married. But at that time, Jia Zhengjing, as the right minister, had promised the emperor for the first time to send his daughter to make peace, but the future changed abruptly. The saint was quite dissatisfied, and the left phase took the opportunity to sow discord. It made the saint even more dissatisfied. To please the saints. went to the exam again and proposed that Jia Ling'er go to make peace. In order to cover up people's eyes, they sent killers to get rid of Chen Wuwang and the child. In the end, in the accident, the killer killed Jia Linger by mistake. and set fire to the corpses and destroyed them.
Since that day, Chen has no hope of growing old overnight. Since then, there has been one less down-and-out scholar on the rivers and lakes. There's one more Bloodthirsty Maniac. Since then, the Onirido Hall has also been established. ”
Qingming said that his mouth was dry for a while. Pick up the wine bowl in front of you and drink it down.
Ye Yu couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. Poor people must have something to hate, this ghost hall head really didn't see it, there was such a past.
However, what made a scholar who was once full of poetry and books and wanted to serve the country become a bloodthirsty maniac who wielded a sword and pointed directly at the court.
Was it Jia Zhengzheng who used the powerful to harm him? Was it Chen Wuwang's own negative thoughts? These are all reasons, but none of them are the main reasons. What really creates a bloodthirsty madman is the decay and darkness of this society in the final analysis.
Just think about it. The once beautiful wife and beautiful house, the beautiful yearning of the past, were all turned into ashes in the heavy snow. How bleak his back would be when he finally turned around.
It is precisely because of the decay and darkness of the ruling class that Chen Wuhope, who was originally peaceful and kind, has been forced into a bloodthirsty madman. It can be said that he is dedicated to the Buddha but is forced to become a demon.
"Master, listen to what you say. I really felt a little sympathetic to that ghost hall leader for a while!" Ye Yu said with emotion.
He was pitiful, but none of that excused him for doing evil. It is not right for others to persecute him, but is it right for him to persecute others? If it is understandable that Jia Zhengzheng was killed, what about the other people in Jia Mansion who have nothing to do with him? What did they do wrong? Therefore, being pitiful is not an excuse that anyone can use to do evil. Qingming was gulping down the meat while saying something that seemed reasonable.
"Probably, people who have experienced despair really have the idea that nothing happens to me in this world, his unscrupulous means, in his opinion, are just to survive!" Ye Yu took a sip of the wine in front of him and said in a serious tone.
"People generally do extreme acts when they are desperate, but it is also necessary to cultivate and endure suffering in the world, like Chen Wuwang, revenge is right, but anger towards other strangers is really endangering the world!" Qingming raised his head and said as he smashed the grease stains on his mouth.
"Okay, boy, I've talked to you a lot today. I've almost eaten for the teacher!Let's go check out!" Qingming said with a full burp.
"Hey, but Master, I still have a lot of questions to ask!" Ye Yu said.
"If you should know, the teacher will let you know. Now is not the time. Let's go check out!" Qingming suddenly changed his expression and said seriously.
"Okay!" Ye Yu said and beckoned to the shopkeeper to settle the bill.
After settling the bill, the two of them walked towards the inn. Walking out of the tavern, the sky was already a little yellow. The late autumn dusk always comes quickly, and before the heart can warm up a little, the sun sets into the western mountains.
The autumn breeze couldn't wait to carry a heavy coolness, driving away the white mist, and began to wander on the side of the street, Ye Yu and Qingming walked on the street drunken and hazy. Greedily enjoying this long-lost warmth.
