Chapter 371: His Time
Chapter 371: His Time
A few months ago, there was an epidemic in Qingfeng County, and countless people were sick.
There was an old Taoist priest who traveled through this place, and he couldn't bear the suffering of the people, so he pinched his fingers and pointed out to them, saying: "There is fairy grass in the mountains, and you can solve the suffering of asking for it." ”
The old Taoist priest pointed with his hand, pointing to the back mountain of Qingfeng County. According to Chu Lan, there are indeed a lot of herbs in the mountains, but it is winter, the grass is withering, the flowers and plants are all gray, and there is no fairy spirit to be seen.
Only a little green in the mountains behind him was immediately recognized by people as fairy grass and brought back.
Most of the people in this era were superstitious, but now they see that there is indeed a different grass on the mountain, and they believe in the words of the old Taoist priest.
It's just that Lao Dao has left, and there is no way to verify which fairy grass he is talking about. However, this did not prevent the people from offering Chu Lan up, and smoked three incense sticks in the morning, noon and evening, begging him to cure his illness.
However, for a plant that likes to be quiet and water-loving, being exposed to incense all day long is almost the same as coercion.
There are tens of thousands of sick people in the city, and there is only one grass, so everyone just wants to eat Chu Lan to cure the disease, and it is uneven for a while, so they can only worship.
Of course, the main reason is that the first man who found the "fairy grass" on the mountain couldn't wait to take a bite, and immediately died with a whimper, which led to the truth that the people only dared to worship, but did not dare to put Chu Lan into medicine.
At this time, the epidemic in Aomine County is not deadly, so everyone will not take the risk of trying.
Chu Lan really didn't like the people who were sneezing while offering incense to him, and he was very disgusted, seeing that a seasonal flu had made the people in the city panic, and the incense that came to smoke him was thriving day by day, so he took action to solve their illness.
Even the rest of the diseases that came to him for the big and small, he could help.
Su Yin was very emotional about this, she said, although Big Brother Chu is a poisonous weed that has flares up and causes the grass and trees within a radius of 100 miles to die, people and animals are dead, but he is very gentle.
In the body of the poisonous weed, there is a good heart to help the world and save the people.
This undoubtedly made the people more convinced that Chu Lan was a fairy grass. Soon, the reputation of immortal grass curing all diseases spread, I don't know when it started, the rumors that he could live forever after eating him, and even became an immortal were rampant, and the people's hearts were floating, and the eyes that looked at Chu Lan were different.
People hid their greed and lust, and the whole city became silent.
It's not that no one thinks of the man who was poisoned at the beginning, but compared with the great benefits, there will always be people who can't help but think: How can the fairy grass be coveted by ordinary people, it must be that kid who is blessed, and he can't bear the gift of this immortal family, if it were me, it would definitely be different!
Dignitaries and nobles think they are superior, different from mud legs, and should enjoy privileges, and the same is true of fairy grass; The merchants thought that money could buy everything, including the correct way to eat fairy grass; The civilians in the city said disdainfully that the immortal family was merciful to all sentient beings, and they must prefer to be more pious......
People of all walks of life have drawn the belonging of the fairy grass in their hearts.
During this period, Chu Lan looked like a grass from beginning to end. He didn't take the rumors to heart, and he didn't meddle with them anymore.
Until one day, he was stolen by a family. The fanatical immortal grass believers, who have not yet become immortal, have already taken the lead in meeting the king of Hades.
With the first one, there will be a second one, and then more and more people will try, die, and never stop the determination of those who come after.
Until Chu Lan couldn't bear it anymore, he turned into a human form and told them: The grass is poisonous, don't touch it again, you will die.
The news of the fairy grass's true identity immediately spread throughout the city and county, and the people were in an uproar. They looked up at Chu Lan, who was in the posture of an immortal, and there was exclamation, praise, greed and madness in their hot eyes.
The successive deaths failed to stop them, how could Chu Lan's simple sentence make them give up?
So one of them asked, "Can the grass fairy give the villain a leaf of yours?" My wife is sick at home, and I hope I can get your blessing......"
As soon as this head opened, the others immediately followed suit, for fear that they would not be able to tell the difference after a while, and this one shouted, "My old mother is also sick!" Ask Daisen to save my mother! ”
The other cried again, "...... My family is also sick, and I beg the grass fairy to save the leaves ......"
"Please be generous!"
"Please have mercy on the Great Immortals!"
After a while, many people knelt down at Chu Lan's feet, all of them opened their mouths to ask him for fairy grass.
Chu Lan refused.
The dissatisfied people questioned him: "Cao Daxian is an immortal, and the immortals are merciful and careful for the common people, why don't they even want to remove the pain for us?" We just want to ask for a few blades, are you stingy? ”
"You are a fairy grass, you must want to grow as many leaves as you want! What's wrong with giving us some? ”
"That's right, without Ye Zi Daxian and he won't die, why can't you fulfill us? Pity us? ”
“…… He also lied to us that poison would kill people, I see, he is an immortal himself, and he doesn't know the suffering of the people, and he doesn't want us to become immortals...... Maybe he just killed those people on purpose, deliberately misunderstood us......"
Countless accusations were mixed with invective, and none of them believed Chu Lan's words. One by one, he stiffened his neck and insisted: "It is the duty of Xiancao to cure diseases and save people, and if you don't agree to our request, it is against the way of heaven and is hard-hearted." ”
Some people even suggested: "If we eat him, will it have the same effect as fairy grass?" ”
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a brief silence in the crowd. Countless people stared at Chu Lan, who could no longer hide the beast in their hearts, revealing a covetous look.
The mental preparation required to eat grass and eat people is completely different.
If Chu Lan didn't mind the former, then the latter, he completely lost his patience. No one can continue to be kind to such evil deeds. Even if they just think about it and don't put it into practice.
"Who told you I was a fairy grass?" Chu Lan asked in a light tone.
"The Plague ...... in the Former City"
"I cured it, but I'm not a fairy grass, but a life-breaking grass." Chu Lan's attitude changed and said, "I've lived for a long time, I haven't become an immortal, but it's very toxic, are you sure you want to try?" ”
The rest of the story can be roughly summed up in a tragic way.
There were people who didn't want to give up and wanted to try, but they died within ten steps of Chu Lan. Then the people who went to dispose of the corpse went to their deaths one after another, and the people were afraid to move again, so they let the corpse be left there, and after a long time, the corpse decomposed, the smell spread, and those who smelled it died......
Chu Lan slept on the edge of the well for a few days, and when he woke up, there were no living people in the city.
Time is forced back more than 200 years ago, and the trajectory of events is not static.
If it were according to the normal timeline, Chu Lan in this world at this moment should be in a state where his consciousness had not yet awakened, and now he was Chu Lan from more than two hundred years later.
His time, even the executor of time, cannot be changed.
