Chapter 603: Another Catastrophe
The high walls of the city cannot be an obstacle to the small basin at this moment. He jumped up to the tower, jumped again to the moat, and crossed the moat with one more jump.
The little basin was running wildly on the road, he didn't know where his strength came from, and he didn't want to know! He couldn't even figure out why he was running away, he just wanted to get rid of something, and instinctively stepped forward.
He felt that this scene of running away was very familiar, as if he had escaped for thousands of years, as if this was his original normal life, and the ordinary days of nearly thirty years were dreams!
The vast night faded, the east was white, and the small basin stopped. He looked around and found himself running down a hill not far from his hometown.
He calmed down, walked forward slowly, and gradually remembered what had happened, and he wanted to go back to Lingtang to see.
Although it was not out of his own intention to kill Xiaowan's husband because of grief and madness, he killed people after all. He wanted to go to Lingtang and reminisce about the experience of nearly 30 years, and then he turned himself in.
Lingtang was already backfilling the soil, and the people who were working saw him coming, and they all greeted him with a smile.
He asked them when they would be able to fill in the pond and replant the lotus root. They said it would be soon, just three more days.
He let out a long breath and jumped into the mud to work with the migrant workers. He wanted to fill in the Lingtang as soon as possible, as long as he could plant a lotus root and a water chestnut with his own hands, he would be able to go to Xiaowan's husband without regrets.
The pond was full of mud, and the people were all concerned with doing things, so no one noticed that Xiao Basin's robe was stained with blood.
The royal guards searched for Xiaopan all over the city, and after the thugs brought by Xiaowan's husband wrote a letter to report Xiaowan's father-in-law, they also assisted the guards to search for Xiaopan.
But they didn't expect that after escaping, Xiaopan would be so stupid to pick up mud and fill the pit in his hometown, and they didn't find any trace of him.
The Taoist priest did not rely on manpower to search, but carefully observed, and on the second night, he noticed the whereabouts of the small basin.
The small basin led people to hurry up the work, and Lingtang was about to be filled, and he sat in the shack and looked at Lingtang and smiled.
Spring is coming, the night breeze sends the fragrance of grass, the fragrance of wild flowers, the horse lantern hanging at the entrance of the shed is shaking, the shadow is sufficient, the lotus leaves seem to have been in the pond such as the cover, the red water is full of ponds, and the song is fluttering......
The Taoist priest's eyes flashed with a greedy and fierce light, and he raised his hand to spread out a light shield to trap the small basin in it, and then raised his sword and stabbed him in the chest.
Xiao Basin blocked it with his hand, but he didn't block it, and watched as the long sword pierced into his heart.
"Hahaha......"
The Taoist priest's sword-holding hand stirred hard, and the small basin was so painful that his facial features were twisted into a ball, but he still hadn't lost his breath.
The Taoist priest's other hand exuded black qi and poured into the heart of the small basin, and his voice shouted with a sharp smile: "You are not dead yet? Are you unwilling to die like this? Haha, what about having the 'Desire Devouring Divine Skill' that can devour everything? Still have to die so aggrieved! ”
"Desire Devouring Divine Skill?" Xiao Basin's consciousness was drifting, but the word made him feel indescribably familiar, and his consciousness gradually revived.
The heart of the small basin was about to be taken out by the Taoist priest, and his heart was red and pale gold, and at this moment, the pale gold light was gathering towards the Taoist priest's palm.
Seeing that the pale golden light had condensed into a spot the size of a goose egg, and then condensed into a golden inner pill the size of a pigeon's egg, it would be inhaled by the Taoist priest into the palm full of black gas, and a muffled roar came out from the throat of the small basin!
The golden Neidan flew back, and his heart retracted into his socket, and the wounds on his body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Xiao Basin pulled out the long sword that pierced his chest, his eyes were as cold as ice, and he stabbed the Taoist priest back!
"Stupid and despicable, selfish and greedy mortals! An ant worthy of begging for mercy at my feet! You don't have extraordinary abilities, but you still have the desire to ascend to heaven, damn it! ”
The Taoist priest couldn't figure out why he died like this, he fell to the ground without seeing it. Because he fell too quickly, the sword pierced on him trembled a few times and let out a low hum.
Xiao Basin didn't know why he was saying those words, and his mind was in turmoil. He sat down beside the corpse, listened to the sword humming, and flicked the sword in boredom to make the humming louder.
The next morning, when the people who had come to work saw this, they were so frightened that they stood still. He greeted them with a smile, and they came back to their senses and ran away screaming.
Xiao Basin shook his head and smiled bitterly, they just ran away, he worked hard alone, and he could finish it quickly.
He didn't know how to think anymore, and he didn't think that the people would go to report to the officials, and there would be officers and soldiers to arrest him.
He shoveled soil and picked up mud by himself, and was busy in an orderly manner. When the officers and soldiers rushed to the edge of Lingtang and surrounded him, he still did not put down the tools in his hands.
"Will you help me? If you don't help, get out of the way! He said with a blank face.
The two men standing in front of him were enraged, and they lifted up their shackles and chains and threw them on him.
He dodged away, and his voice was a little colder: "Get out of the way, don't get in my way!" ”
"Damn! What crazy to say! Hurry up, catch him, the prince has a heavy reward! ”
The man with the chain stepped forward first to wrap around Xiao Basin's hand, and the others, whether they were fast catchers or royal guards, each took their weapons to attack Xiao Basin.
Xiao Basin became irritable in his heart, and forcefully broke the iron chain that covered his hand, grabbed the person closest to him, and raised his hand to break that person's neck!
"I said it, don't stand in my way, don't stand in my way! Don't you understand? ”
He threw the corpse in his hand at them, his eyes red and roaring.
It just so happened that someone caught the corpse, and when he saw the head of his comrade in his arms twisted back and stared at him, he was so frightened that he hurriedly threw away the corpse! Then, his legs ran uncontrollably into the distance!
One person starts running, and everyone else follows suit.
They were gone, and the little basin clapped his hands and went on with his business.
The lingtang was filled, and he planted the lingling seedlings and lotus roots alone. The smile on his face was hopeful, and he carefully treated the sprouts like a baby.
Finally planted, the small pot walked around the pond in mud-stained clogs, and felt satisfied when he looked at the pond.
Suddenly, with a "boom", an arrow was shot at his feet. The arrow was wrapped around a strip of cloth that read:
"Basin monster, hand over Neidan, or your whole family will die!"
He looked at the strip of cloth and was slightly stunned, remembering that outsiders didn't call him "Little Basin", saying that he was a monster, and referred to him as "Basin Monster".
This strip of cloth is covered with the golden seal of the prince, which is the prince using his family to blackmail him.
His life has been ruined, but his parents are still alive, Xiaoke still has a wife and children, Xiaowan is still young and can remarry, he can't ruin their lives.
Didn't the prince just want this, I don't know where I came from? Anyway, the wish has been fulfilled, and he is going to die, so what if the prince takes Neidan? As long as his family can spend the rest of his life safely, he is not afraid of death.
Xiao Basin galloped back to the city wearing clogs, and the sound of "bang" sounded along the way, because he was rumored to be a man-eating monster, so that many years later, people along the road were still afraid when they heard it.
In the big mansion in the city, he saw that the royal guards surrounded the mansion impenetrable.
A contemptuous smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, and he jumped to his feet and leaped into the hospital.
When he landed, he saw that the prince was protected by many masters, and his face turned pale with fright, and he asked himself: My little basin is already such a terrible existence?
After all, the prince had seen a lot of big scenes, so he quickly calmed down and waved to the soldiers in front of him: "Bring people up!" ”
The sound of chaotic footsteps sounded, and Xiao Basin saw that his relatives were tied up with five flowers, and the soldiers pushed them forward.
After seeing him, the relatives rushed to him excitedly, eager to say something, but they were grabbed and their mouths were gagged, and they could not express their hearts.
"Let my family go, I'll be at your disposal!" Xiao Basin stretched out his hands and offered the soldiers to tie him up.
The prince refused to do so, and he pointed to a large iron cabinet and said, "You go in!" ”
The iron cabinet was covered with runes, which the Taoist priest had prepared to use to close the small basin.
But then there was an unforeseen change, and the Taoist priest became selfish and wanted to swallow Neidan alone. So he didn't act according to the plan, and wanted to kill him alone to take Dan while Xiao Basin couldn't really use his strength, but he was killed by him.
The prince was frightened because of this, and wanted to give up taking the Divine Beast Neidan, but Ling Mei offered a plan to act according to the original plan. She said that it is difficult to kill Xiao Basin by hard fighting, and she can outwit it and let Xiao Basin "kill herself".
She knew where the weakness of the small basin was, and the small basin was really pinched by her again.
After Xiaopan obediently walked into the iron cabinet, the prince ordered Xiaopan to lock his hands and feet. There was a lock in the cabinet, and the small basin listened to the screams of his relatives outside the cabinet, and quickly put his left wrist and ankle into the lock.
The prince let a bold soldier go to the cabinet and lock the wrist of the right hand that the small basin could not lock itself. Then, quickly close the cabinet door.
The cabinet door closed, and a strange mantra sound came from the small basin's ears, and the sound waves shook his eardrums.
He felt that he was about to pass out, and while he still had a trace of consciousness, he shouted eagerly: "Father, mother...... Big brother and third sister, you will live a good life in the future, forget me, forget those things! Forgot about ......."
I thought I would die like this, and I didn't know grief or joy anymore, but I woke up again.
Cold, cold to the bone marrow! The cold made his teeth tremble, and he tried to curl up to ward off the cold, but his limbs couldn't move.
He groaned in pain a few times, alarming the princes who were guarding the sidelines.
"Hear that pretty much?"
"Well, you can open the cabinet and take Dan, you can't wait for him to die, if he dies, Neidan will disappear."
After they finished speaking, they opened the cabinet, and the faint light penetrated the eyes of the small basin, and he saw many monks and Taoists standing behind the prince.
He took his gaze off their faces and moved them to Ling Mei's face, fixed on her!
"Presumptuous! Dare to look at this princess like this? Come on, gouge out his eyes first! Ling Mei glared back at him viciously.
Princess? He was a little confused.
Seeing his expression, Ling Mei smiled at him charmingly, "I am able to do my job, of course the prince will marry my princess." Giggles, do you hear me? It's a concubine with a jade rune and a golden book......"
Xiao Basin raised his eyes and looked up, muttering to himself: "Is it women's vanity that makes the world only flashy, or is it the flashy world that makes women greedy for vanity?" “
"Hmph, hypocrisy!" Ling Mei's beautiful eyes were full of cold light, and she said to the prince: "Why don't you hurry up?" ”
Xiao Basin didn't look at them squarely, which also made the prince angry, and he asked Xiao Basin to gouge out Xiao Basin's eyes first, and then gouge out his heart.
When his eyes were pulled out, Xiaopan was covered in cold sweat, but he gritted his teeth and endured without screaming.
The sharp knife slashed through his chest, his heart still beating vividly, but he didn't see the pale golden light shining.
The prince was a little puzzled, could it be that the Taoist priest had deceived them, and the Nedan had been taken away?
