Chapter 7: The Death of the Crocodile
In the city, the crowd poured forward like a river, and the noise boiled into the sky.
Jaw Tianwan stood on the white jade bridge, like an ant climbing in his heart.
"Where did this Gu Hai go, if I don't get rid of him quickly, that adult should be angry with me!"
Just as he was talking to himself towards the sparkling blue lake, he saw the vivid people reflected on the water.
They laughed loudly, they danced with their hands.
This harmonious situation brought back the addiction that was difficult to get rid of in his heart.
"Ordinary people are addicted to cigarettes and alcohol, and if I am not satisfied with my hobby of not hurting my body, I am so sorry for myself. ”
With crocodile eyes, he flew into the laughing crowd with the cold wind blowing on the lake.
"Hahaha!" he didn't know what cheerful game he had come up with, and he laughed at the fluctuating water by holding on to the white jade railing.
"Prepare for death!"
In the midst of this, he disappeared.
After Ye Yan accepted the request of the ancient sea to resurrect Hua Ke, he didn't dare to go anywhere, so he stayed in the place of his first sight, immersed in the sea of flowers all day long.
Just as he closed his eyes and felt the girlish fragrance in his nose, a sense of foreboding appeared in his heart.
He was looking at the blue and white sky and muttered, "My life and death are coming." ”
The power of the Tao is the supernatural power that is exercised through the perception of heaven and earth and obedience to a world law. Although it does not need to be cultivated like the art of imperial weapons and the method of forging, after mastering the power of the Dao method, the heavens will often send down small calamities, great calamities, and life and death calamities.
After each life and death calamity, you will continue to survive, and if you can't survive it, you will die directly.
Heaven will not let go of a person who has supernatural powers.
"Engong, you have to come back quickly, in case I don't survive the life and death tribulation, it will be useless for you to find Miss Huake's soul. ”
The surrounding flowers, following Ye Yan's heart, swayed uneasily.
In a place of lush grass and sparse population, a skinny little beggar watched the world in starry eyes.
He had no strength left, and he was dying of hunger.
"I was born with only hunger and cold, and I really want to live, like them, smiling and living. ”
A tear fell from his depleted eyes, splashing on the same untouched weed.
The grass shook, as if to soothe the sympathetic.
"I really want to live. ”
Just as the little beggar was fantasizing about the unrealistic sunshine in the darkness of despair, a pair of black boots stepped on his sight.
Jaw Tianwan looked at the beggar with crocodile-like eyes open.
He grinned and said with a wicked grin, "Do you want to live, do you want me to save you?"
In the desperate eyes of the little beggar, if there was a sudden light. Like a dead tree struggling in the wind, he used almost all his strength to say, "Yes......! Please, save ...... Help me!"
Jaw Tianwan took out a jar from his arms, then shook it in front of the little beggar, and said, "But I only have a jar of human flesh here, are you still willing to eat it in order to survive?"
The little beggar listened, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I am willing, as long as I can live, I am willing to ...... anything."
When E Tianwan heard this, he bent down and stroked his head, and said, "Good boy, you didn't disappoint me." ”
The little beggar tilted his head, feeling a strong light in his eyes, and a warm current fluttering in his weak body. Since he was a child, no one has treated him so gently.
Etianwan bent down and placed the jar containing human flesh in front of the little beggar.
With tears of emotion, the little beggar eagerly opened the cloth stopper of the jar with both hands, and like a hungry wolf, took out the human flesh inside, and chewed it greedily.
E Tianwan looked at the little beggar with a mouth full of blood, listening to the crisp sound of chewing human bones, and his crocodile-like eyes overflowed with satisfaction.
Eat, eat hard, this is the flesh of a man who has a pestilence.
After looking at it for a while, he took out two ingots of glittering gold from his bosom and threw them to the little beggar.
"Now that you're full of food and strength, let's go and play hard in the streets!" said Etianwan, trying to hide his bad intentions in his words.
When the little beggar saw this, his eyes shone like gold, and he grinned with blood, and then laughed loudly, and then immediately "banged" his head a few times.
"You're so good, I'll never forget you for the rest of my life!"
He rejoiced like a fish regained in water.
Hearing this, E Tianwan just grinned and stared at the little beggar with crocodile eyes.
Let's play, go spread the plague to the people of this city, so that I can watch another good show.
Of course, these words were not spoken.
The little beggar could no longer bear the desire for the turmoil in his heart, so he picked up the gold ingot and ran towards the most lively place in the city.
When he ran out into the streets, there were even more people in the city.
The old man took the children and fished by the lake, and the laughter and laughter were like the sound of the waves, and the waves poured into people's ears. In the tea stall, some tired coolies are comfortably holding a bowl of tea, talking and laughing loudly.
Countless stalls, countless people haggling with each other. In the tavern full of the aroma of wine, there was a sound of persuasion that seemed like an insult.
These bustling, these bustling, were once places that could only be reached by little beggars in their dreams.
Now, he's got his wish.
The little beggar is like a bee, diligently playing everywhere. When each merchant saw two ingots of gold, he was greeted with a good voice.
His belly was swollen high, and his yellow skin was now full of blood.
Just as he was complacent, he suddenly felt a pain all over his body and a dry mouth.
"What's wrong with me? Is it because the food is too good?" he walked straight to the tea stall and shouted, "Boss, water, give me a big pot of water!"
On this day, people are in the hustle and bustle, from early morning to evening.
The little beggar was at the mouth of an alley, enduring the pain all over his body, leaning against the wall and shivering, and said dyingly: "I'm cold, I'm so cold......"
Gradually, his eyes were about to close, and when he looked at the world for the last time, he said to himself in his heart: "I died like this, that grandfather was so good to me, I haven't repaid him yet......"
The little beggar closed his eyes unwillingly with guilt.
At the last moment of his life, he didn't know that the only person who gave him warmth was the one who killed him.
The twilight was deep, the sun was deep, and just as some of the merchants were about to close their stalls and go home, there was a scream: "Dead!
Many people rushed to the scene as if they were looking for excitement. When they saw the corpse of the little beggar, they couldn't help but talk a lot, and after dinner today, there were some things worth discussing.
Then a few coolies found a mat, wrapped the little beggar, found a piece of wasteland, and buried him.
Strange to people, when the little beggar was alive and no one cared, everyone just walked by numbly. But after the person died, he began to feel compassion.
But everyone in this city did not know that the plague began to spread in places that no one could see.
At night, more and more people crowded to the doctors in the city. The door of the doctor's house was almost demolished.
The doctor just frowned, then flipped through the books, and asked again and again: "It's weird, it's weird, I've never seen this disease before!"
Some well-informed old people, seeing everyone's situation, said, "Oh no, this is the plague, the plague is coming!"
Fear immediately spread as these words came out.
The evening breeze blew on the calm lake. In the slight fishing fire, E Tianwan sat on the boat, letting the water ripple him wherever he went.
With crocodile-like eyes, he excitedly poured down a cup of blue tea, and his hoarse voice sounded in the moonlight: "The show is about to begin!"
With a smile and crocodile eyes, Etianwan kept watching, looking at the people in this disaster.
There are always some people who act in a way that makes him feel good both physically and mentally.
A mother who had just returned home and suddenly felt chills in her body closed the house in panic. She yelled at her children, "I'm infected with the plague, don't come out!"
Tears, after she had finished roaring, fell in the moonlight.
"You ...... You have to take care of yourselves, Qing'er, you are a sister, you have to ...... Take good care of your brother. In the next life, we will reunite again!" the mother held back her choked voice, decisively wrapped her head in her clothes, and rushed into the river outside without hesitation amid the heart-rending cries of the child.
The creek seemed to follow the wind, sounding a sad tune, and flowed eastward.
Seeing this scene, E Tianwan was a little unhappy, but said: "Okay, the beautiful people in this world are a minority after all. ”
In the bustling city of Kigenjo, some people began to chill their bodies, and deep despair appeared on their frightened faces.
This is the end of a lifetime? There is no great wealth yet, and there is still a lot of unfinished business!
Why, why would I die of the plague while some people are still happily alive?
The desperate faces of these people showed a distorted smile, like a demon laughing in the night.
"Let's die, let's die together!"
These people began to run wildly around other people's homes, hugging and hugging those who were not sick, and then shouting, "Congratulations on you, like me, have the plague!"
There are also some people who suddenly have a bright eye, and their mediocre life will eventually get a turnaround.
They randomly found some herbs, made them into pills, and then shouted to others, "Take this medicine to avoid the plague!"
When many people heard the news, it was like a life-saving straw appeared in front of them, and they took out the silver in their hands one after another, wanting to grab this life-saving thing.
The person who sold the medicine, looking at the fact that he had never seen such a amount of silver in his life, couldn't help but show a wicked smile.
Quite a few people bought medicine and began to be unscrupulous. When they went home to sleep, their mouths began to dry and they had chills.
In a wild place, a group of people with hoes and industriously digging the ground amid the sound of insects.
One of the sweaty men said, "The plague is coming, let's quickly dig this pit, as long as we bury all these sick people in it, everyone will be able to save their lives!"
At this time, a man beside him hesitated: "But the plague has just begun, and many people are still alive!"
"It doesn't matter if they live or die! if they don't bury them alive, everyone will die!"
These inhuman words, like the words of reason, brighten everyone's hearts.
In the night when the darkness covered the earth, Etianwan opened his arms and smiled happily, his feeling of comfort was like a wave that reached the place of the nine heavens.
"It's so beautiful, that's what I want to see!
He screamed loudly, tears streaming down his eyes with crocodile eyes, and he used his blurred gaze to glance at the people who were invading everyone at the same time as the plague and humanity.
Ye Yan was in the garden of the first sight, he shrunk and couldn't stop chilling.
Under the moonlit night, he said to the flowers: "It seems that I am infected with the plague, Engong, you have to come back quickly." ”
