Chapter 398: Starfall

"Where are we going?" Following Xingchenzi's guidance, Wang Fusheng found that the route was neither to the outskirts of the city, nor to the train station or airport. Instead, he kept walking around the city and couldn't help but ask.

"To overturn some of your cognitions, so that you can understand how to construct the world in your own eyes."

"In this way, my cognition is overturned, and I am allowed to construct the world realm in my eyes." Wang Fusheng looked out the window with a puzzled expression.

"Of course not, it's just that the place you want to go needs to be dark to go. It's not early, and I can't think of where I'm going for a while. Xingchenzi shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Since you can't go until dark, why are you calling me out now? That place is far from the star? ”

"It's not far away, it's on the Shanghai Star. Or even in this city, there is no need to make a space shuttle. It can be reached in half an hour by car at most. ”

Hearing Xingchenzi's explanation, Wang Fusheng had a black line in his head, and he had to know that Lu Dao had only eaten lunch now, and it was not long before it got dark. And if it weren't for Wang Fusheng's inquiry, it is estimated that Xingchenzi would have been silent until he let Wang Fusheng drive until dark.

"If there's anything you can do, it's all out of the game now, and we can't go back and play for a few more hours and come out again." Seeing the black line on the scavenger's head, Xingchenzi also felt that he thought of something to do, and the decision to pat his head without thinking seemed a little too arbitrary. But it will definitely not work to go back now, so Xingchenzi handed over the decision to Wang Fusheng.

"I've been in the city for less than two years, and 90 percent of that time I've been running between a rented house and a school, so what do you think I'll introduce to you?" Wang Fusheng looked at Xingchenzi speechlessly. Although Xingchenzi is very old, he gives people the feeling that his head is often off the line and has nothing to do with being cautious.

"Then why don't you go to my friend's bar for a drink, where she mixes wine is still quite distinctive." Xingchenzi thought for a moment and said.

"Do you think the bar is open at this time?"

"Normally, bars are closed at this time, but that's not my friend. Won't she be open if I go? Xingchenzi waved his hand and said indifferently.

Although Wang Fusheng felt that Xingchenzi's proposal was a little inappropriate, the two of them couldn't really drive on the road for a few hours. So Wang Fusheng nodded and agreed to Xingchenzi's proposal. Under the guidance of Xingchenzi, the vehicle kept shuttling through the city's lanes, and finally stopped on a relatively depressed street.

However, although the flow of people is a little sluggish, there are many billboards and light boxes on both sides of the street, so after getting out of the car, Wang Fusheng couldn't help frowning and said: "It must be very prosperous here at night, right?" ”

There is no sarcasm in Wang Fusheng's remark. Or nasty. Although he is a soldier at heart, he has some rejection of the smoky miasma of this kind of entertainment place, but rejection does not mean hate.

"It's okay, I heard that business here is good. Otherwise, my friend wouldn't have opened a bar here, let's go right in front of the slender man and the snake. ”

"The Slender Man and the Snake, such a strange name."

"This is a Western legend, in the West a long time ago, when technology was not very developed. There was not even the most basic nautical compass, and at that time there were very few ships that could go to sea, and most of the ships sailed by manpower. As a result, there were many slender men along the river.

It's a hard job. They pulled the ropes tied to the boat and dragged the boat upstream, and the bigger the boat, the more slender men were needed. One day a slender man pulled a small boat up the river, and his wife and daughter were seated in the boat.

Halfway through the journey, the rope he had pulled through suddenly broke, and the slender man screamed anxiously as he saw that his wife and daughter on the boat were about to be swept away by the water. Say that at this time, if anyone can help him, he is willing to give his everything. At this time, a snake swam up to the slender man and said that he did not need much valuable repayment.

I only hope that the slender man will be able to get weak in the days when it molts. Be able to prepare something to eat for it. The slender man agreed, and the broken rope of the snake bar dragged up from the water. So the wife and daughter of the slender man were saved. After that, the slender man fulfilled his promise. Looked after the snake for a few days while it was shedding.

And he was afraid that the snake would be in danger outside, so he led the snake to his house. However, this decision was opposed by his wife and daughter. Because his wife and daughter were afraid of snakes, the slender man had no choice but to let go of this plan. Time passed day by day, and the original little snake grew up day by day.

And as it grows, he needs more and more food when he molts, and the slender man is not rich in the first place. So every few days when the snake molted was the hardest time for him. Finally, one day, when the snake molted again, the slender man's wife couldn't help it.

She didn't want to starve herself and her daughter for days because of a snake. Even if the snake had saved her and her daughter's lives. So after the snake molted again, and the slender man finished delivering the food and left. The slender man's wife took a hatchet and killed the snake. After that, although the slender man was angry, he did not leave his wife. ”

"None?" Wang Fusheng, who was originally listening, found that Xingchenzi didn't say anything here, and asked, at this time, the two people who were walking while talking had already come to the bar. A sleepy waiter greeted Xingchenzi, apparently knowing that Xingchenzi was a regular customer of his boss and did not stop him.

"No more. What do you think about this? Xingchenzi shook his head, then looked at the scavenger curiously and asked.

"I don't think much of it. As soon as I heard this story, I used it to deceive children. And it's the kind that has no depth. First of all, since the slender man was pulling the boat with his wife and daughter against the current, the boat was washed away by the water as soon as the rope broke. There was no time to pray for him, and he met a snake who was willing to help him. And the two of them even have time to talk about the content of the cooperation, isn't this nonsense?

Secondly, the snake is an animal that molts although it hides. However, it only eats a lot of energy to survive the winter when it hibernates, and although its new scales are a little delicate when it molts, it is not completely fragile. Otherwise, every time the snake molts, it will encounter a dangerous period of several days. The species of snake has long been extinct in nature.

Species that can be selected and passed down through the laws of nature. Even if there are some obvious weaknesses, there will be ways to deal with this danger. This is the basic skill that they can survive in the natural world.

...... again"

"Okay, okay, what's first, second, again. You tell me it's true. What do you think about this? ”

"What do you think?" Wang Fusheng looked at Xingchenzi with a puzzled expression.

"Don't you feel sorry for this serpent? You must know that he saved the slender man's wife and daughter, but he was killed by the slender man's wife in the end. Isn't this revenge? And this slender man was really angry afterwards, and he didn't divorce his wife, don't you think he is a little ungrateful? Then a woman approached her and spoke.

The woman is wearing a windbreaker and black knight's leather armor inside, and her hair is the inch hair that men like to have, and her face is not powdered, giving people a very sharp feeling. That's right, it's sharp, and dressing a woman like this doesn't give people the feeling of being capable, nor is it heroic. There is no delicate woman should have. She was like a knight's spear in the hands of a fast-charging knight, full of a sharp penetrating ability that made people dare not stand in front of her, otherwise they would be pierced.

"Are you ......" Seeing the woman walking towards him, Wang Fusheng instinctively became vigilant in his heart, and he smelled a very dangerous feeling from the woman's body. However, if it weren't for the woman's sharpness, in fact, the woman would be good-looking, especially the pair of Danfeng eyes with a different kind of charm, but these were all suppressed by the woman's sharpness. No man could withstand such sharpness. Stand across from her and admire her hidden beauty.

"She's the owner of the Gammon and the Serpent bar, don't ask anyone else to answer her questions." Xingchenzi on the side spoke.

Wang Fusheng was stunned for a moment. Then he did not dwell on the truth of the story, and said: "I don't feel anything special about this story, nor do I feel that the slender man is ungrateful, and that the snake is very sad. ”

"For what?" The woman asked with some surprise, obviously there are many people who have heard this story, but it should be the first one to return like Wang Fusheng.

"Two men...... No, it's a contract signed by one person and one snake, and the content is not right. After they didn't fix the snake and saved the slender man's family, did the slender man need the food he needed to ensure that he molted once, or the food he needed for a lifetime of molting. That one...... Professional habits, accustomed to doing everything meticulously and meticulously, will avoid some avoidable risks. I felt that Xingchenzi's gaze was a little unkind. Wang Fusheng touched his nose a little embarrassed and said.

To be honest, Wang Fusheng really has no love for this kind of story full of loopholes, and such a story will deceive those young children who have not stepped into society and like soap operas, or housewives. For a scavenger who was once a professional soldier and a commander, such a story is not even as good as the strategic plan developed by a recruit. However, Xingchenzi and the woman seemed to be very concerned about this problem, and Wang Fusheng had to give up his rigorous logical analysis first.

"Putting aside the analysis just now, I still think that the slender man did nothing wrong. First of all, the slender man loved his wife and daughter very much, and when his wife and daughter were in danger, he was willing to give everything to save the lives of his wife and daughter. He was a good husband and a good father.

The slender man's mother was not wrong, she killed the snake with the intention of revenge. But the existence of the snake directly affects the survival of their family, in order for themselves not to go hungry, and their daughter not to go hungry. She had a reason why she had to kill the snake.

As for the reaction of the most stubborn and the most stubborn slender man, it is more normal. The serpent is dead, and he loves his wife and daughter dearly. You can't let him abandon his wife because of this, or just kill his wife to avenge the snake, right? Wang Fusheng said all his thoughts in one breath.

But after finishing speaking, seeing the woman's eyes looking at her more and more sharply, and Xingchenzi's face showed a thoughtful application, Wang Fusheng asked a little strangely, "Did we say something wrong?" ”

"It's a bit outrageous, but it's true." Xingchenzi glanced at Wang Fusheng in some surprise and said, "How could you come up with such an answer." As a young man standing in front of a beautiful woman, shouldn't you behave like a gentleman and then be morally supreme? ”

"There's nothing wrong with morality, but that's for saints. As an ordinary person, he is selfish, and sometimes he goes against morality for his own selfishness. Seems like a common thing, right? Besides, the story of the slender man does not seem to rise to the moral high ground, it is just an instinctive choice made by one person to survive. It's not moral, after all, if you have a choice, everyone wants to keep the good things for themselves and the bad things for others. Wang Fusheng shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Does a little kid know what life is? Wrong is wrong, right is right. To be ungrateful is to have no morality. It should be punished. And the old man, there is nothing to do, why are you running here with people? The woman, whose eyes became sharper and sharper, spoke, and looked at the scavenger unkindly, and then set her eyes on Xingchenzi.

"It's not right to come and have a look at the idle today. I'm bringing a kid with me today to open my eyes, but it's a little early, so I'm here to sit down. It just so happens that you have some contacts with that side, so let's go there together today. Regarding the woman's attitude, Xingchenzi didn't seem to care about opening her mouth.

"He's an ancient warrior?" The woman glanced at Wang Fusheng in surprise, and the sharp light in her eyes was even better, as if she wanted to see Wang Fusheng through. Wang Fusheng and the woman looked at each other. Although his eyes were pierced by the other party's sharp light as if they were pricked by a needle, Wang Fusheng's face was still unwavering.

"It's a bit determined." The woman saw Wang Fusheng's eyes and herself, her face did not change in the slightest, and she said after looking at Wang Fusheng for a while.

"He's not an ancient warrior, but he will soon be. He is already in the game. At this time, Xingchenzi opened his mouth and said, this answer made Wang Fusheng unable to find a clue for a while, and he didn't know what Xingchenzi meant.

"It turned out that he was just a little kid who hadn't stepped into the ancient martial arts realm yet, no wonder his thoughts were so deviant. Old man, you brought him, he should be your student, right? Not before he became an ancient warrior. You'd better let him have the heart of an upright warrior. Otherwise, if you cultivate a big devil, or a villain who will take revenge. Beware of ruining your reputation for half your life. ”

"He is only half of my disciple now, and he is still accepted for the sake of favors. If he does anything to ruin my reputation in the future, I can blame the master before him. Xingchenzi shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently. Wang Fusheng couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, although he didn't believe that Xingchenzi's words were true. But Li Lao handed himself over to Xingchenzi, and Wang Fusheng always felt a little unreliable.

"He's not your student?" The woman couldn't help but show a hint of surprise on her face.

"Not yet, it may be later. Or maybe not. ”

"The person who can make an exception for you, an old drunkard, to take apprentices through the back door, must have this kid's background is extraordinary, right? Is this the illegitimate son of the head of that big family, or is it a rich second generation, an official second generation or something? Or maybe old man, you suddenly found that you are ready to do good deeds and accumulate yin virtues? However, if you accept such an apprentice with deviant thoughts, be careful that your yin virtue has not been accumulated. On the contrary, it damaged Yangshou. ”

The woman seemed to be extremely unhappy with Wang Fusheng because of Wang Fusheng's answer just now. So the words were a little sour, which made Wang Fusheng feel a little angry in his heart. However, as soon as this anger appeared, it was suppressed by Wang Fusheng. Because he found that the reason why the woman was so open and clawed, although there was a certain reason for his previous answer to that story.

But a larger part of it is going to Xingchenzi, plus Xingchenzi's attitude. made Wang Fusheng more convinced of this, because Xingchenzi was a little unreliable. But the person who dared to say that he had beheaded himself in front of Elder Li could not be sarcastically pointed at by a little girl, and she still loved to smile on her face. There are only two possibilities for this situation, one is that Xingchenzi is too cheap and has this hobby. The second is that the relationship between the woman and Xingchenzi is extraordinary.

"Could it be that Xingchenzi is a negative man, and he did something sorry for the woman back then. Otherwise, how could a woman be so angry with an ungrateful person? It's just that the age gap between these two ......"

"What is the boy thinking. This is my daughter, and if you think about the mess, even if the old stubborn comes, I will beat you up. Xingchenzi, who was originally sarcastically ridiculed by the woman and still smiled, and was really a little cheap, seemed to see what Wang Fusheng was thinking again. His eyes widened at Wang Fusheng and he was full of warnings, but such an action. How do you look at it, how does it seem that she was wronged on the woman's side and went to Wang Fusheng's side to find a balance.

"Boy, don't you dare to be cranky again, be careful that I let your head move, and the old man, who is your daughter. If you confess your relatives like this, be careful that I drive you out. Xingchenzi's words undoubtedly turned the woman into an enraged cat, revealing her sharp claws and wanting to give Wang Fusheng and Xingchenzi a bite. However, I don't know if Lu Dao is an illusion or what, Wang Fusheng always feels that if a woman really wants to bite, then it must be herself who is hurt, but Xingchenzi who angers him has nothing to do. It's a bit absurd, but it's getting stronger and clearer from the initial blur. (To be continued......)
