27. Chapter 27
The surrounding crowd was in an uproar, and Zhao Hu looked at him in disbelief. And Shen An just smiled at her and didn't explain.
Cai Ye was in a happy mood when he heard someone making a noise, but he became suspicious when he saw the person who spoke up.
Shen An was wearing a blue shirt on a white background, which looked simple and indifferent, but the clothes themselves were so clean and white that they seemed to be slightly shiny. Cai Ye had seen the monks of the Song family from afar, although the clothes were more expensive than Shen An's, but they were so neat and glamorous, only the magic blessings of immortal cultivators could maintain such a miraculous effect.
However, people who cultivate immortals have always been pretentious, they will only be high and judge right and wrong, even if they want to cut the enemy with a thousand knives in their hearts, they still have to make a benevolent and moral appearance on the surface, how can they agree to their "finger chopping" move?
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
Cai Ye has been in Gongyang City for a long time, and he knows more or less the moral rules of the monks, this Shen An is obviously not the Song family, and he is just a butcher in Xiacheng District, he supports himself in vain, don't have another purpose, take himself as the wrongdoer.
Cai Ye looked at Shen An vigilantly, but there was a smirk on his face: "The immortal really knows right from wrong, this kid's name is 'Black Skin', and he is my apprentice, but the little one just wanted to scare and scare him, where is he really going to cut off this child's finger." It's just to see that this kid lacks a tutor and make a joke with him. ”
Cai Ye smiled as if he was grinning, but his eyes were towards the boy in his hand, glaring fiercely, he thought to himself: Dead black skin, luck is really good, spare him today, and wait until this strange monk leaves, there is a way to toss this stinky boy.
"What's a joke about this kind of thing?" Like Cai Ye, Shen An was also full of smiles, but there was no smile in his eyes: "The so-called 'don't take evil as small, don't take good as small', Cai Ye taught this child for the good of this child, if he is allowed to indulge in evil and murder, he will become unscrupulous when he grows up, and he will lose more than he gains." ”
"Brother An, what nonsense are you talking about!" Zhao Hu got up in a hurry, and seeing that Shen An was unreliable, Zhao Hu had to come forward by himself and said to the meat man: "How much did he steal from you?" You let him go, I'll give double the money! ”
"That's our money!" Hearing that Shen An was so vicious, the stubborn black skin began to be afraid, and when he saw that Zhao Hu was willing to help him, he shouted at her: "He owes us wages!" I just want to get my and my brothers back! ”
"Don't listen to this stinky boy's nonsense!" Cai Ye blew his beard and glared and said: "It's not easy for us to do a small business, I serve this group of boys to eat, drink, and sleep, and I can't come back!" This conscienceless little brute still made up his mind until he was old...... Lao Cai, I'm on it! Seeing Shen An's presence, Cai Ye was embarrassed to be presumptuous, he just hoped to muddy the water quickly, so that the stinky girl next to Xiao Baiyan had no position to help the little beast in his hand: "Besides, they have all signed a contract!" The wages are all good! ”
"You lied to us!" The boy's voice welled up with tears, but his head was raised high to prevent tears from falling: "If it weren't for the teacher teaching us to read, we wouldn't have known how badly you exploited us!" At the beginning, it was clearly said that it was 'three years, wages plus three meals a day', but it was written on the paper that 'in three years, wages or three meals a day', you lied to us! The boy's eyes were full of tears, and his heart was full of shame, if he had read and hyphenated earlier, he would not have fallen into Cai Ye's hands because of "or" and "plus".
"Brother An, did you hear that! That man is not a good person! Zhao Hu shook Shen An's sleeve vigorously and said hurriedly: "It was that bad guy who swallowed his money." ”
Shen An smiled slightly, as if he didn't care, and said: "It's just that child's words, since the contract has been made in black and white, you should act according to the rules, and you can only blame this child for not having eyesight, and it can be regarded as a lesson for him." Shen An's face sank and said: "However, that kid stealing things is a broken rule, there are no rules, no one obeys the rules, and he can steal the boss's things if he is delayed, isn't the world chaotic?" ”
"What the immortal said makes too much sense." As soon as Shen An said this, Cai Ye also believed that he was really on his side. Cai Ye was originally worried that if he didn't teach Heipi a lesson, all child laborers would learn from him in the future, so he wanted to break his finger and warn other boys not to move their crooked hearts. But for chopping hands, Cai Ye really didn't think much about it. It's not because he has a good heart, but he is worried that if he really cuts off his hand, this black skin will be really wasted, and the food money spent on this kid before will be wasted?
"If Cai Ye doesn't have a knife in his hand, he can use my sword." Shen An took out the fish scale water sword and threw it to Cai Ye, who hurriedly caught the sword, afraid that it would fall to the ground and anger Shen An. He touched the sword, and felt that the blade was cold, as if it had just been taken out of the ice cellar.
Monks attach great importance to their own swords, and some monks will even treat their swords as brothers and lovers, where will there be someone like Shen An, casually throw them to others.
It was the first time that Cai Ye had touched the monk's sword weapon so closely, and he was faintly excited in his heart, he pulled out the sword body, only to feel the cold light, shocking. The smooth blade was like a mirror, shining Cai Ye's face clearly, and even a birthmark on the side of his face was also illuminated.
"Isn't Cai Ye going to make rules? Then use this sword to set a rule for this kid! ”
Shen An's voice seemed to come from a very, very distant place. I don't know if it's because of the crowd around him, Cai Ye only felt dizzy, but his heart felt extremely clear-
- That's right! Establish rules, you must set rules!
With Shen An's support, Cai Ye only felt that he was angry. He said to himself: That's right! That's how it should be! The money in Lao Tzu's pocket is earned by Lao Tzu! Where did these little brutes get the guts to steal Lao Tzu's money!
Cai Ye looked at the black skin glaring at him viciously, gritted his teeth, and his heart and lungs ached with hatred.
Damn it! When Lao Tzu knelt and kowtowed like a dog for a copper plate, you little brutes hadn't come out of your mother's womb yet! When Lao Tzu licked his face and went around to do business, you little brutes were still drinking your mother's milk! ”
Cai Ye looked at the black skin's resentful face, and his heart suddenly swelled with happiness-
――If you want to blame you, you come from a humble background! It's the life of being tossed!
"Cai Ye, aren't you also born in the 'mud'?" Heipi, who was grabbed by Cai Ye's hand, suddenly laughed, but his originally frightened and resentful voice was full of contempt and disdain that did not match his age: "The 'pig and dog mud field' in Xiacheng District, tsk, where is it noble?" ”
Cai Ye was shocked! How does this stinky boy know!
Memories of shame kept flashing. There is a river in Xiacheng District, because the upper reaches are monopolized by Gongyang Shangcheng, blocked and in disrepair, and it has become a muddy wetland for a long time, which is dirty and smelly all year round, and even people in Xiacheng District do not want to live in it.
And Cai Ye grew up there.
Cai Ye was so angry that he began to tremble all over: "You fucking shut up!" Lao Tzu came out of struggle! Lao Tzu is not like you little brute who steals chickens and dogs! Lao Tzu came out by his own struggle! ”
That's right! Lao Tzu's money is all earned by Lao Tzu one by one!
The reason why "mud ground" is called "pig and dog mud ground" is because the algae there is rich in nutrients, and pigs often sneak to the mud to dig algae to eat, Cai Ye found this and began to use algae as a material to feed his pigs, so his pig fat is the fattest and the most delicious.
"Really?" Heipi smiled even more happily: "Then Old Man Cai's death has nothing to do with you?" ”
"Shut up, shut up, shut up!" The horizontal flesh on Cai Ye's face began to tremble, the surrounding scenery began to blur, his faces began to distort, and his faces became the face of his adoptive father, Old Man Cai.
"Son, ......" The sad voice came from the mouths of the surrounding "old men Cai": "...... Father...... Thirsty...... Give ...... Water ......"
"Don't come here! Don't come here! Cai Ye was terrified: "I didn't kill you!" You're going to die! I just can't feed you! ”
Cai Ye, who was surrounded by "Old Man Cai", began to feel difficult to breathe, and everything around him became distant. He heard Shen An's voice coming from a distant place, with unquestionable determination and coldness: "Cai Ye! Hurry up and set the rules! Everyone should obey the rules. ”
Cai Ye came back to his senses, he looked at the black skin with a mocking look on his face, he was furious, he began to roar like crazy: "What do you see! What are you looking at! Lao Tzu is going to cut you! Lao Tzu just wants to teach you! ”
- Fuck the rules! The rule of this world is that Lao Tzu is stronger than you! Lao Tzu is stronger than you, you deserve to be trampled by Lao Tzu!
Cai Ye took the hand of the black skin, raised the sword high, and cut it down, the sword is worthy of being a sword that sharpens iron like clay, as easily as from a mud Bodhisattva statue, cut off a hand made of mud, Cai Ye threw that hand on the ground, beaming with pride.
- That's right! I'm making rules! Those who do not follow the rules should be punished!
"I see, because you will be punished if you don't follow the rules, so Cai Ye's hand will be cut off."
The black-skinned contemptuous voice made Cai Ye furious, but when he was about to raise his sword and hack this stinky boy to make him completely quiet, he found that-
-- The hand holding the sword fell off.
Hand! Hand! My hand!
Intense pain, with the moment of realizing the separation of the wrists, drilled into the heart, and it hurt to the heart. Cai Ye was extremely frightened, but more frightening than the horror of his hand falling into the mud, what was more terrifying was the crowd of people who limped and densely surrounded Old Man Cai's face.
"Son...... Father...... Thirsty ......"
"Son...... I'm your father......"
"Son...... Daddy taught you how to read...... Literate...... You won't be deceived, you won't be bullied......"
"I'll teach you the three-character scripture today......"
"Great great-grandfather, father, son, son and grandson......"
"From the descendants to the Xuanzeng, it is the nine tribes and the people......
"Father-son, father-son, father-son, father-son, father-son ......"
"Shut up, shut up, shut up, ahh Cai Ye was so frightened that he picked up the sword in his hand and slashed indiscriminately.
Why is this happening? How so? Why did he happen to this? Cai Ye, who was surrounded by the crowd, was so frightened that he sat on the ground...... Sound from far to near, and from near to far......
Don't come here! Don't come here! Cai Ye shouted wildly in his heart, but he didn't make a sound at all
He's just, he just wants to make rules!
"Because Cai Ye, you don't follow the rules first." The black skin, with a pair of intact hands, looked at him condescendingly and with an indifferent expression. Cai Ye suddenly became furious, how dare this stinky boy look at him with such eyes! Why is this stinky boy looking at him like that! Cai Ye struggled to get up, roared wildly, and swung his sword to cut the black skin in half-
- However, he saw a birthmark on the black face that had been cut in half......
And then that face, it began to distort, it began to swell......
He saw his face, which was cut in half by himself......
The faces of the people around him began to change, the old man Cai, the black skin, the child laborers, and the guests......
And yet they all said the same thing......
"Unruly, unruly, unruly, un......ruly, un
"Ahh
He ...... What happened to him? ”
Zhao Hu grabbed Shen An's sleeve in horror, not understanding what was happening in front of him.
Shen An just threw the fish scale water sword to the horizontal meat man, why did that man suddenly scream like crazy?
Shen An looked at Cai Ye with an indifferent expression, foaming at the mouth, tearing and howling, and the onlookers knew that Shen An was afraid of what kind of spell he had cast, and he was afraid of being involved, so he left one after another. Only Heipi looked at Cai Ye's miserable state in a daze, as if he was scared stupid, motionless.
Seeing that Cai Ye had almost calmed down, he fell to the ground and twitched from time to time, his face was like ashes, as if he had completely abandoned the consciousness of survival. Shen An stepped forward to retrieve the Fish Scale Water Sword from his hand, and said to Dream Eater with a secret message: "Xuan can't kill you!" ”
Shen An just wanted to let Dream Eater scare and scare Cai Ye, and didn't want to drive him crazy, but Dream Eater was full of innocence and said: "How do I know that this person has a false heart like this, sure enough, the more powerful the person on the surface, the more paper tigers are." ”
That's a good point. Shen Anxin snorted coldly, then turned to the stunned black skin and said, "Do you have an official mansion here?" When this Cai Ye wakes up, let's go together, and after helping you change the contract, you can go somewhere else to beg for a living. ”
"I ...... We have nowhere else to go......" Blackskin gritted his teeth: "Me and those apprentices...... I just want money......"
"Brother An...... We, let's give him some money, ......" Zhao Hu asked Shen An pitifully: "He really ......"
"I don't want your money! I just want Cai Ye to owe me money! Heipi said stubbornly to Zhao Hu: "Also, don't let you think I'm pitiful!" I have hands and feet, and I can make money on my own! Feed yourself! I'm going to get my share of the wage! ”
At a young age, he has a lot of backbone. Shen An couldn't help but glance at An Puyu, the doll at his feet frowned thoughtfully, as if he was not happy with Zhao Hu's meddling, and did not agree with Heipi's arrogant words of "supporting yourself". However, he did not say much, just closed his lips and remained silent.
"Wait for Cai Ye to wake up, I'll accompany you to the official mansion." Shen An spoke to the black skin, but his hand was on An Puyu's head and rubbed it, signaling him not to think too much.
was taught such a lesson by Dream Eater, this Cai Ye can be more or less honest for a year and a half. Shen Anxin said: Dream Eater said that when he was in the Demon Domain, the Great Venerable of Shengzhan asked him to awaken the deepest fear and shame in the hearts of his followers, so that they could face their past mistakes, so that the believers could recognize the helplessness of reality, reawaken their kindness, and take refuge in Buddhism. Even the most vicious murderer can recognize himself in the dream arranged by the Dream Eater and put down the butcher's knife. A little Cai Ye couldn't be easier for Dream Eater.
"Is your government here honest and reliable?" Thinking of the unreliable government in the Water Dividing Realm, Shen An suddenly asked: "If the government here is not cheap, it is better to kill him directly, and then burn your contract, it will be even more ruined." ”
"This immortal friend can rest assured that the official government of Gongyang City is honest and upright, and he will definitely be able to give Zhuo Renjun an explanation!"
A voice of dissatisfaction and anger came from behind him, and when he heard this familiar voice, Shen An was like pouring cold water.
-- It was a familiar voice.
"Teacher! There you are! Hei Pi jumped up and bypassed Shen An who wanted to hug the man in the green shirt behind him. But because he was afraid that his clothes would be unclean and would stain the man's clothes, Hei Pi suddenly stopped in front of the man's heels, although he was embarrassed, he couldn't hide his excitement and said: "Teacher, why are you here!" ”
Shen An turned his head and said to the man in front of him: "Song Gongzi, I have offended you by making disrespectful remarks, I hope you will forgive me." ”
It is completely different from those richly dressed people in Gongyang Shangcheng, the man in front of him has been dressed in green shirts and cloth all his life, and he is no different from the teacher of the mortal realm, but he can't hide the bright brilliance in his eyes, and his gentle and elegant temperament implies that the man in front of him must have received an excellent tutor.
The person in front of him is really the great-grandson of the current head of the Song family - Song Guangling.
"You know me?" Song Guangling frowned and looked at Shen An, for this person who spouted wild words and seemed to have no kindness, Song Guangling really couldn't raise a good impression in his heart.
Yes, I know you. Shen An said silently in his heart: Because of your previous life, you died under this sword.
