Chapter 356: The Past of the Ghost Town
The old man looked left and right, and occasionally coughed twice, but he didn't start telling his story. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Mi Li'er was speechless, and said to Brother Feng: "Brother Feng, go make a pot of tea." ”
The last time Mi Li'er went out of the ghost town, she bought a bag of tea.
She thought that the people in the ghost town did not have the habit of drinking tea, so she took it back to Zhu Gong and Zhu Granny to drink.
Unexpectedly, after being inadvertently drunk once by Brother Tiger and Brother Feng, he preached the tea very magically.
Mi Li'er was depressed.
When people from outside come in to exchange treasures, they will bring in some food, why don't they bring tea?
Brother Feng glanced at the old man, and said unhappily: "Mi Li'er, this tea is a good thing worth a thousand gold outside, how can you give it to people to drink casually!" ”
"Go! Don't be verbose! Mi Li'er said angrily.
She found that Brother Feng was good everywhere, but most of the time he thought too much.
After drinking the tea, the old man was satisfied.
He sighed with satisfaction and said, "Mi Li'er, let me tell you, I am the only one who knows about this matter in the whole ghost city." Although they are monsters or something, their lives are still too short. ”
Brother Feng began to roll his eyes again when he heard the white-haired old man call Mi Li'er's name.
Mi Li'er's name is only called by people as close as him and Brother Hu, and this old man who eats and drinks also dares to call it?
Brother Feng, who really couldn't stand the low pressure, said to Brother Feng: "Brother Feng, go to the kitchen to see what Gong Zhu is cooking?" You ask him to fry me a plate of bacon, I really want to eat it. ”
Brother Feng reluctantly left.
This time, there is no one left or right, and you can listen to the "shocking secret" that the white-haired old man is going to tell.
"You mean, you're the longest-lived ghost town? Are you a human or a demon? Mi Li'er tilted her head to look at the old man and asked.
The old man didn't want to answer Mi Li'er's question, and only said vaguely: "This place is dark, and there are so many things hidden in the shadows, I can't guarantee that I won't live too long." As for what I am? Alas, I lived so long that I can't even remember it myself. ”
Mi Li'er didn't believe this, but since the other party didn't want to say it, she didn't force the other party.
"Uncle, tell me the big secret you know." Mi Li'er poured another cup of tea for the old man and said.
"The thing I'm talking about is the origin of the ghost town." The old man said.
The origin of ghost towns?
I've never heard of this rice grain.
According to Mu Fanchen, this ghost town has always existed.
It's just that it's too dangerous to come here, so few people come.
Unexpectedly, the white-haired old man actually knew the origin of the ghost town.
The white-haired old man was very satisfied with Mi Li'er's reaction, and slowly and leisurely began to speak.
It turns out that the appearance of the ghost town has something to do with a god.
However, when it came to the origin of this god, the old man twisted his beard and said hesitantly: "Many people say that he is a god, but many people in the heavenly realm do not recognize his identity as a god, but let's regard him as a god." So long ago, the definition of gods in the heavenly realm was not very clear, and some ancient monsters with mana to the sky were automatically considered gods, but many gods did not recognize it. ”
Mi Li'er was speechless, could she tell the story well, and always said something inconsequential: "Boss, let's ignore the identity of the god, you continue to go down the river." ”
"Once upon a time, demons were rampant. At that time, the demons didn't know how to advance and retreat as they do now, and the demons at that time grabbed and ate people at will, and tortured and killed humans. That god has a great sense of justice, and he can't see youkai like this, so he goes around catching those youkai who have done bad things. The white-haired old man squinted his eyes slightly, and said as he recalled, "It's just that there are too many youkai who do bad things, and you can't kill all of them." ”
"Why don't you kill them all?" Mu Fanchen, who didn't know where he came back, sat next to Mi Li'er and asked.
The white-haired old man said: "Although some monsters have done bad things, they are not guilty to death, how can they be killed?" Although it is said that you demon hunters have maintained the peace of the world and played a deterrent role, many demon hunters have done too much. Some monsters are untaught and do wrong things, and you don't give them a chance, just know how to kill, and after a long time, it will only cause a backlash from the monsters. ”
Mu Fanchen retorted: "Since they did something wrong at the beginning, they may harm people in the future." ”
"So you'd rather kill by mistake than let it go?" The old man's voice was slightly faster, "Have you ever heard a sentence called atonement for sins?" You have given those monsters a chance, and some of them will continue to do evil, and some of them will do good. ”
"We don't allow them to have the opportunity to harm again. As for whether there are any monsters for good? Mu Fanchen sneered and said, "Monsters are vicious by nature, and there are very few who can be good. ”
"You demon hunters haven't tried it, how do you know it won't work?" The white-haired old man was-for-tat.
Mi Li'er hurriedly stopped the debate between the two and asked, "What about later?" What does the ghost town have to do with that god? Isn't it a ghost town or a place for youkai who have done bad things? ”
The old man glanced at Mu Fanchen and stopped arguing with him.
"Mi Li'er is smart." The white-haired old man continued to speak slowly, "The ghost town is actually a huge underground space. One of the most amazing things about this place is that there are many caves on the ground that can lead to ghost towns. Therefore, some people say that if the ghost town is chiseled through, the world will completely collapse. ”
"The location of a ghost town is quite magical." Mi Li'er walked through a few places and agreed with the old man's statement.
"If you want to get to the ghost town, you have to go through a long passage. Some passages are very short, as long as you walk for half a day to get to the ghost town, but some passages are very long, and you can't reach the end of ten days and half a month. And in this long cave, there are many small things called earth ghosts, which are fierce and cunning. The white-haired old man said, "I finally entered the ghost town, and there is a river." The river was so wide that I suspect that when the god first came to the river, he thought that this huge underground space was all a dark river. ”
"That's right, this god is so powerful! If we had left it to us, we would have given up a long time ago. Hearing what the old man said, Mi Li'er found out about this problem. There was no light in the ghost town at the time, so how did the god know that the other side was land through such a wide river?
"That's because the god himself is a water demon that day." The old man whetted Mi Li'er's appetite before he said, "He is the overlord of the water, so he can naturally cross this river, and he knows that the center of the river is a big clearing." ”
"A lot of things are really a coincidence." Mi Li'er sighed.
