Chapter 15: The Demons of the Heart

Snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths, and everything cannot be generalized.

What this means is that there is a specialization in the art industry, and in some cases, strength is not the only criterion for measuring things.

Just like some strong people, in the year of famine, in order to have enough to eat, all they can do is to rob their homes and rob others of food, but some of them look thin and weak, and then when facing the famine, they can not only find some small animals stored food in the forest, but also use the small animals that store food as food by the way.

Well, that's right, the above is Dongfang Bai and the monkey.

Since they came out of Emperor Martial Emperor City, in one night, the two senior sisters and brothers have faced the first difficulty after they left Emperor Martial Emperor City.

They have no money!

It's not that Dongfang Baijianghu has little experience, and he didn't have silver or anything on him, and Xiao Baibai still carried a small bag of gold leaves when he went out.

But!

After ten years of circulation of the Blue Family's currency, gold has long since become a non-monetary metal no different from ordinary metals......

Dongfang Bai, who has not walked out of Emperor Wu City for ten years, has not completely accepted this fact.

As for monkeys, don't even think about it..... What is money? He still doesn't have an accurate concept of this! The only thing that impresses him is the economic 'nonsense' that Lan Li taught him on weekdays......

Of course, it does not mean that gold is really worthless, as a kind of precious metal, especially a rare precious metal in Nanzhan Buzhou, and after the cancellation of the monetary value, gold can still be used as one of the main materials to create women's favorite jewelry.

In other words, a bag of gold leaves, which adds up to two catties, only got a share of a thousand dollars.

Then the sister and brother had a meal in the evening, stayed in a store, and the next day the bag was empty.....

It's too hard to spend money!

A thousand dollars can buy a thousand catties of food, normally speaking, enough for an ordinary family of three to spend more than a month.

But who are these two?

When they were in Emperor Wu City, when did they ever worry about money?

As a result, they had a dashing night, and when they woke up the next day, the two of them with empty wallets could only go hungry.

At first, Dongfang Bai didn't care.

felt that with her martial arts, she could find a random mountain forest and rob a group of robbers, and the money would come.

But the reality is often very cruel.

Just because there is an organization called the Mercenary Guild in the world, the bandits and robbers who make a living by robbery in the mountains have long been hired by rich businessmen to clean up over the years!

The Mercenary Guild is a no-brainer!

In fact, with their existence, such as bandits and bandits, there is no room for survival at all!

Of course, the main reason is that over the years, as the Lan family's business net has spread throughout Nanzhan Buzhou, there are really fewer and fewer people who can't afford to eat.

Everyone can afford to eat, who wants to be a bandit with their head up?

Even if there are so many people who are unwilling to be ordinary, they can't pull up their subordinates to follow them, even if they really pull up a small group of people, within three days after the business opens, they will be exterminated by nearby merchants and farmers who pay to invite mercenaries.

This kind of behavior of mercenaries is very efficient, and they often hire a few innate martial artists, and they can easily set foot on these so-called 'cottages'.

And in the face of this situation, Dongfang Bai naturally had nowhere to find bandits to rob.

So, for the next three days, the two of them slept in the open one after another, eating and drinking by catching wild beasts between the mountains and fields to fill their stomachs.

In this regard, the monkey is a master.

Not only can he catch animals, but he can also find all kinds of melons and fruits, spirit grass, pheasants, and hares in the mountains and forests.

Even some of the little squirrels hid food in the hollow of the tree can be pulled out of the hollow by this guy to eat.

It's human instinct!

In terms of eating and drinking, it is solved, and in terms of sleeping, although the two people who practice martial arts want to pay attention to it, they have no conditions, and it is not that they can't bear to sleep in the wild at night.

But what?

They came out this time to find someone!

They can't find Shi Potian, but their senior sister and brother look like penniless victims, right?

During this period, Dongfang Bai didn't think about going to the Lan family business in the nearby city to get some money, but when he thought of her, a rare martial arts master in the world, she actually had to find a master to ask for pocket money when she went out, Dongfang Bai was reluctant to pull down his face.

For Xiao Baibai, face is a very important thing, and sometimes, it is even better than her life.

So, the two sisters and brothers, walking all the way, became scavengers in the mountains and wilderness all the way.

But whenever they encountered a little bit of a beast that had become a fine spirit, they were all killed and brought to the mercenary union in exchange for a reward.

In this regard, the head of the trade union who received the two of them all looked at these two with strange eyes, not knowing what kind of madness they were making, but even a cute little animal like a rabbit spirit dialed a snow-white rabbit skin in exchange for money.

Lost conscience.....

Because they had to raise money, it took half a month for the two sisters and brothers to come all the way.

When they finally caught up with Shi Potian, they had already arrived in Xuzhou.

And the home of the black and white heroes is in Xuzhou City.

The moon is dark and the wind is high.

In the city of Xuzhou, the lights are bright.

In front of the gate of the Shi family's mansion, Shi Potian stood here blankly like a killer with feelings, looking at the extremely strange door in front of him.

Shi Potian's mother in front of the door, Min Rou, was pulling the ears of a man who looked like Shi Potian ninety percent, as if she was scolding a man of such a big age, and he didn't want to make a career every day, but he was nostalgic for the place of smoke and willows like the Qinglou.

The man, Shi Potian's brother, Shi Zhongyu, was smiling and pandering, but he didn't seem to listen to it at all with an absent-minded look on his face.

Min Rou doesn't care about her son's attitude, since she was a child, her reprimand has become a habit.

In this way, I don't know how long after the reprimand, after Shi Zhongyu 'only promised' that he would never do it again, the mother and son entered the house and closed the door from the house.

And Shi Potian just watched this scene happen in the dark.

The world seemed to turn into a pantomime for him at this moment.

He looked at the previous Shi Zhongyu, as if he saw another life of his own.

Oh, yes.

If he hadn't been taken away by his adoptive mother at the beginning, would he be living like a jade in a stone now?

No.

Shi Potian shook his head.

Approaching the age of thirty, if you haven't married a wife and had children, you think it's already unfaithful and unfilial, right?

Shi Potian felt that he would not live such a bastard, at least it would be much stronger than the jade in Shi he had seen before.

But what's the use of thinking about it now?

Shi Potian and Shi Zhongyu are people from two worlds after all, and what has happened cannot be changed.

One hand touched the scimitar on his waist, Shi Potian took a deep breath, and recalled in his mind what his adoptive mother looked like when she died, and recalled the bits and pieces of living with her adoptive mother when she was young.

After the warmth, it was a biting cold.

With a cold light flashing in his eyes, Shi Potian strengthened his mentality in his heart, and then quietly sneaked into the stone mansion.

He wanted to check it out.

Go and see what he calls 'home' and the 'family' that lives in this house.

I also want to talk to his 'brother'.

There is no particular reason, I just want to talk to him and decide if I want to kill him with my own hands!

Although the city lord taught him before, what is said is wronged, there is a debtor, and those who walk the rivers and lakes are better not to implicate the innocent.

But Shi Ponaïve really wanted to call Shi Qing and Min Rou to feel the torment and pain he had endured when he couldn't sleep at night over the years.

I want to see, the husband and wife, in a sanctimonious tone, killed his mother, and then reprimanded him as if they were their biological parents, so when he, the 'son', killed Shi Zhongyu, what kind of attitude would the couple treat him?

In his heart, he felt that his thoughts were a little ridiculous, and Shi Potian knew that he was almost demonic.

I also know that this is because his realm has been stuck before entering the Dao, and he has been unable to enter the Dao for a long time.

It's hard to get over!

The knot is hard to solve!

If he didn't untie this knot, he would have no chance to enter the Dao in his life, even if he turned to the Immortal Dao, he wouldn't be able to get the so-called Dao Jindan at all!

But after killing Shi Zhongyu, will he be able to untie the knot?

Shi Potian didn't know.

Maybe he knew in his heart that the so-called untying of the knot was nothing more than a complete fall into the devil's path, but he really couldn't think about it so much now.

Walking in the Shifu with excellent body skills, in the current realm of Shi Potian, Shi Qing and his wife will not be able to discover him at all.

Bypassing the two corridors, Shi Potian walked to the door of a small courtyard in the backyard of Shifu.

In the yard, in the room, the lights are on.

Through the glass window, Shi Potian could see that his so-called 'one mother and compatriot' brother was lying on the bed holding a pink belly pocket, sniffing between his mouth and nose, with an intoxicated expression on his face.

Depravity, ignorance.

Such a person is really his brother?

Shi Potian was reluctant to admit it.

walked into Shi Zhongyu's room with an expressionless face, even if Shi Potian had already walked to Shi Zhongyu's bed, the embroidered pillow in front of him did not find the slightest trace of him.

It's really disappointing.

Sensing the unhappiness in his heart, a trace of anger flashed in Shi Potian's eyes.

So, a second before he spoke, Shi Potian directly slapped Shi Zhongyu's face.

'Smack'.

Shi Zhongyu, who was slapped heavily, was almost dizzy, and he didn't speak for a long time.

The same face, different momentum, the two brothers face each other.

Silent.

And after the silence, Shi Zhongyu, who came to his senses, suddenly let out a miserable scream:

"Daddy! Mother! Someone hit me!! ”

A minute passes.

Shi Zhongyu was still screaming, and found that the expected parents did not rush to the rescue, and Shi Zhongyu, who was not really stupid, tried to escape several times, but was intercepted by Shi Potian with more drastic means.

After receiving a few more slaps, Shi Zhongyu, whose face was already red and swollen, cried and spoke:

"This hero, you and I have no grievances, why are you pretending to be me?

Do you have anything to say?

I'm a timid person, no matter what you want to do, and what you want to get in my house, as long as you open your mouth, I will get it for you immediately, you really don't need to bother to become like me to get it, you old man just don't kill me..."

Pretend to be you?

Shi Potian was cold in his heart, and even wanted to laugh a little, laughing at himself, and laughing at his so-called biological father.

So, they didn't tell the fool in front of them that they still have this so-called son outside?

Or did they think that after the two killed their adoptive mother, they thought that their son did not exist?

In this world, there are still such fathers and mothers?

If that's the case, why did you come here in the first place?

And why break my peaceful life?

A little bit of blood-colored thread rose from under Shi Potian's eyes, and the firelight in the room set off him more like a bloodthirsty murderer.

With a cold face, looking at Shi Zhongyu's dead father-like expression, Shi Potian suddenly spoke:

"You want to live?"

"Yes!"

Almost in a screaming gesture, Shi Zhongyu shouted, "As long as you can live, you can do whatever you want me to do!! ”

"Really?"

"Really! It's more real than real gold! As long as your old man lets me go...."

"Okay."

"Leave me alone.... Yes? Did you say yes? ”

Shi Zhongyu's words were only halfway through when he was interrupted by a sudden 'surprise'.

Shi Potian nodded, and then, he saw that he took out a box made of cold ice from his waist bag, and then under Shi Zhongyu's gaze, he took out a thin ice from the box and hit it into his body!

After doing this, Shi Potian looked at Shi Zhongyu, who was touching his neck, and said with a sneer:

"Don't touch it, what I planted for you is a life and death charm, and you'll know the taste later."

"Raw... Bear... Life and death charms? When Shi Zhongyu heard this, his face turned pale.

Obviously, he knew what kind of vicious thing the so-called life and death talisman was.

"Hero, no, Ancestor, Ancestor, just tell me if you need anything, you really don't need to use precious things like life and death charms....."

"Okay, as long as you do what I say, I'll untie it for you."

"Ancestor, as long as I can do it....."

"You put this Heartless Pill into water, feed it to your father and mother to drink, and I will give you the antidote."

With an expressionless face, Shi Potian said to Shi Zhongyu.

After speaking, he also shoved a pill wrapped in cytoplasm into Shi Zhongyu's hand.

In front of him, Shi Zhongyu's expression was stunned, as if he was stunned by Shi Potian's words.

Heartless Pill!

Even if you haven't heard the name of this elixir, as long as you think about it, Shi Zhongyu can guess the specific effect of this elixir.

"Hero, hero, why did you kill my father and my mother....."

Shi Zhongyu's expression was like crying, and as soon as he reacted, he threw away the 'Heartless Pill', just looking at his movements, the small pill was like a piece of charcoal that had been burned red.

In this regard, Shi Potian was indifferent, not caring about Shi Zhongyu's performance at all.

He wanted to know if the thing in front of him, which looked disloyal and unfilial, would feed this so-called 'Heartless Pill' to his biological father and mother after feeling the power of the life and death talisman.
