Chapter 39: The Mysterious Drinker (Ask for Collection)
Just when Liu Feng was considering whether to upgrade the village first or contact the outside world first, the Mongolian side asked someone to bring news - a strange guest appeared in the tavern.
It is strange because this man has been here for two days, has been drinking for two days, and is a little crazy, muttering something from time to time. A guy took advantage of the wine to listen to it, and the man muttered "Twenty years...... Bustling...... "Wasted ......" and so on, I don't know what this person wants to do, and I was afraid that there would be something wrong, so I reported it to the boss.
The Mongolian side couldn't pay attention to it, so he asked someone to tell Liu Feng.
Liu Feng was unsure between escalation and going out, and when he heard this, he planned to come over and take a look. Of course, He Yun was following him, and Yun Ao was also - after he recovered from his injury, he was dissatisfied with Liu Feng because he had nothing to do these days, so he took the opportunity to drink.
Meng Fang's tavern was a small three-story building, and at this moment, the strange guest in his mouth was drinking in a window place on the second floor. He had been sitting here for two days, barely eating anything but drinking.
Liu Feng walked upstairs and saw a very sloppy person sitting by the window drinking. His hair was already in a disheveled bun, his black clothes were shabby and wrinkled, his beard was shaggy and covered half of his face, and his eyes were blurred as he looked out the window at the lively crowd. Fortunately, he had already paid for the wine in advance, otherwise everyone would have thought that he was here to drink Overlord wine.
"This man is extraordinary!" This was He Yun's first reaction.
"He's a master!" This is the feeling of Yunao.
It's just that when they looked at it carefully, they couldn't see anything special about this person.
As if he didn't know what was going on, Liu Feng walked straight to the man.
"This hero, I wonder if the little brother can sit here?"
"Heroes? It's ridiculous, I've been living in a mess for twenty years, and no one has called me that. Pity me for being alone, displaced, unable to honor the high hall, unable to protect my clan friends, unable to raise children, how can I talk about the word 'hero'! After a while, it seemed that the man had reacted, muttered to himself, looked at Liu Feng and said, "There is a lot of space here, why do you want to sit here?" ”
A few days after the opening of the tavern in Mongolia, most of the people in the village were homeless, and they were used to being poor, and they ******** save money, and few people came to consume it. Besides, after all, the village is in the initial stage of development, and the villagers have money to exchange for daily necessities, and there are not many people who have spare money, so business is bleak. However, after having a tavern, it can attract past heroes, as long as they have the ability, they can be subdued, Liu Feng estimates that the man in front of him is such a passing hero.
"The first time I saw Brother Tai, I felt that I was in love, and when I saw Brother Tai drinking alone, it was boring, so I recommended myself and accompanied Brother Tai to drink." Liu Feng has also exercised now, his face did not change when he lied, and he sat down unceremoniously, and He Yun and the others also sat down.
The man withdrew his gaze from the window and looked at Liu Feng with a mocking expression.
"Of course, I saw my brother drinking alone for a long time, I guess there must be something annoying, you might as well talk about it, maybe I can explain it later." Liu Feng picked up the wine jar and poured wine for the stranger.
"As an alien and with low strength, if you can have these two followers, you will know that your identity is extraordinary, it is that you are the village chief of this Baijia Village." The man smiled and said, "I have been walking the world for twenty years, and a few months ago, I was shocked to hear that a strange person had descended, and it was the first time I saw it. Are you trying to subdue me? ”
"As a lord, as long as there is a slight opportunity, I will not give up any possible talent. Although I was tempted to subdue you just now, I am more interested in your experience of twenty years outside. For months, I hadn't gone out of a hundred miles, and my vision was narrow, and I wanted to hear about the outside world. Seeing the strange man in front of him and seeing his alien identity at a glance, Liu Feng was also a little surprised. He knew that maybe the man he had met was a great talent. But he wanted to know what it was.
"It's big outside, but it's small, and if you don't go out, who can tell." The man seemed to say to himself, "The place that has been sealed by the gods for hundreds of years has now seen the light of day, and it is time for him to be glorious." It's just that things are not people, can you still find the feeling you had back then? ”
"Where it has been sealed for hundreds of years?" Liu Feng heard his self-talk, it seemed a little familiar, and suddenly, he reacted and exclaimed, "You are the one who broke out from here back then!" ”
"Hahahaha......" The man suddenly laughed, and at this moment, Liu Feng felt that the person in front of him had changed, no longer the decadent drinker, but a fierce tiger that was about to devour people, and his aura was so powerful that he could barely breathe. He Yun and Yun Ao were the same, sweating profusely and fidgeting.
"I didn't expect you to know about this, it seems that you, the village chief, know a lot about things here! I didn't expect to be able to return to this place in my lifetime, and I didn't expect that when I came back here, this place would have changed hands. The man sighed a little in his words, "Village Chief, what do you think I should do?" ”
His power is getting heavier and heavier, and He Yun and Yun Ao are struggling to support him, and he has long been unable to speak. Liu Feng, as an alien, is the weakest, but he is supported by a belief and confronts the person in front of him.
"You've been away for 20 years, haven't you seen your family since you came back, or maybe you have doubts and don't dare to face it. Maybe you found out that I became the head of this village, and even merged the three villages into one, but you must not know how I became the head of this village in the first place, and you will not know what you faced at the beginning! ”
"You people have worked tirelessly to find a way out, and have been going forward for hundreds of years. Yes, you have pursuits, and you don't want to live in one place, which is the wish of all people, but what have you left behind, the old men, the frail women, the drooping children, and the sick and wounded. You leave a legacy, one generation leaves, and in ten years, another generation grows up, and you carry on this goal from generation to generation until you find a way out. ”
"To be honest, I admire your perseverance, and your perseverance is worth learning from. But you have forgotten what you have left behind. The elderly, women, and children who are helpless will have to shoulder the burden of life and fight all kinds of threats after you are gone, until the next generation of young people grows up. And then there's another cycle. ”
"None of you have thought about what to do if something happens one day, without strong force, how will those old and weak women and children survive! You won't understand what it was like here a few months ago. A coward like you, who has never contributed to the village, who does not dare to face his relatives directly after returning, who wants to get back what does not belong to him but has doubts, who is disrespectful to his benefactor and who wants revenge, is the most despised! ”
Seeing that the other party had the intention of driving people away, Liu Feng held the pressure and said a lot in one breath full of justice. In the end, he actually forced the other party's momentum back a little.
"You say I'm a coward?" The man was even more imposing, and he roared with an angry look on his face.
"You... Only... Be... Weak... After the other party ...... angry, Liu Feng felt that it was more difficult for him to breathe, and gritted his teeth and said word by word.
"Click......" The man slapped his palm, and the case in front of him was almost broken: "Tell me, why am I cowardly."
"It seems that you are not yet introspective! From what you just said, you should know the situation of this valley after so many years outside, right? Liu Feng spoke with difficulty.
"I know a little bit about it." The man retracted some of his momentum slightly, making Liu Feng feel better.
"You said that this place has been sealed for hundreds of years, so you should know the moment the seal of the gods is lifted, right?" Liu Feng carefully considered his words and kept probing.
"Yes, when the Inhumans descended on this land, the seal of the valley was lifted, and although it was still hidden, it was already possible to enter and exit."
"It's been a few months since that day, so what are you doing? Are you too far away from here, and you haven't been here until now? ”
The man was silent.
"You're not. If you wanted, maybe you could come back in ten days and a half months, but you didn't. Because you're scared, you don't know what you'll see when you come back after 20 years, you don't know if there's anyone you're familiar with, that's why today, you're sitting here and getting drunk alone. Just because, you don't dare to face it. ”
The man was still silent.
He did not deny what Liu Feng said. When he fled with nine deaths, he began to inquire why, and later learned from a Taoist priest who lived in seclusion in the mountains that this was the place where the gods had sealed it.
Over the years, he has traveled around, just to find a way to break the seal, but more than ten years have passed, and he has no clue. It wasn't until one day he got the news that the seal wouldn't disappear when an Inhuman came. So he went back to the mountain and began to wait, and this wait was three years.
Gradually, he became disappointed and didn't know when the Inhumans would come, so he went out on a trip again.
That day, when he learned that a stranger had arrived, he was overjoyed and immediately set off to rush back, wanting to come back as soon as possible. But when he came out of the excitement, he gradually slowed down.
Yes, he was scared. After thinking about it for twenty years, when the moment really came, he flinched. Twenty years have passed, and there can be several twenty years in life, and "things are people" is the most lethal word for parting people. When he left, he was still a young man who had never reached the crown, but now he is close to the age of confusion. He didn't dare to imagine it, and the speed was getting slower and slower, and it took him more than ten days or even a few days to get here, so he walked for several months before he finally came here.
Hometown timidity, probably that's what people say.
The prosperous scene came into view, this was the glory that Baijia Village had never had in the past, even when it was the most powerful, it was not as good as it is now. But is this prosperous village still the Baijia Village in my memory?
It's changed, everything has changed. He didn't dare to look for familiar people, so he inquired a little about the situation in Baijia Village from passers-by, and with a conflicted mood, he walked into the tavern and sat for two days.
After that, it was the arrival of Liu Feng.
"So, even if you have super strength, even if you can kill us all by yourself, mentally, you are still the coward who dare not face reality." Liu Feng roared.
"Man, go get your boss and make him recognize who this coward is?"
