Chapter 31: Sentient Beings

"What kind of bullshit are you talking about?"

The old man had an inexplicable look on his face, and he directly said such vulgar words unceremoniously.

Zheng Xie smiled bitterly when he heard this, and shook his head, also feeling that he was really a little stupid to ask this old man a question.

However, the old man's next sentence made Zheng Xie stunned in front of the table.

"If you are a human being, you must have affection, and if you have affection, you will have desire, and if you have no desire, you will have a ghost, how can you be a human being? If there is really any ruthless person, then there will definitely be affection, but outsiders don't know it. ”

The old man scratched his messy hair impatiently:

"How could you ask such a brainless question in your later life? I don't look like a stupid person, isn't it because I'm always dizzy and misguided?"

When Bai Wushan heard that this bad old man was so squeezing Zheng Xie like this, his eyes immediately widened:

"How did you—"

Zheng Xie raised his hand and stopped Bai Wushan from continuing.

"Old man, what do you think...... What's the affair?"

Zheng Xie stared into the old man's eyes and said word by word.

The old man coughed a few times and spit out a mouthful of old phlegm:

"Hell knows!"

This time, Zheng Xie seriously thought about what the old man said.

"Those who have no desires and no desires are ghosts, not people. ”

"Hell knows. ”

Zheng Xie turned his head and glanced at Bai Wushan, who was puffing up, and remembered Liu Tong's old face full of shrewdness and calculation.

Suddenly, Zheng Xie spoke:

"He knows that I bought my life from the underworld......"

"He knows I'm from Taiyuan ......"

"He knows the reason why the soul of no goodness grows......"

Thinking of this, Zheng Xie paused, and then bowed respectfully to the sloppy old man with a casual look and thanked him:

"Thank you for your advice!"

At this moment, the sloppy old man's eyes revealed an incomprehensible meaning:

"Think twice about talking, I just scolded you a few words, old man, how can I give me any advice?"

Without waiting for Zheng Xie to answer, the old man stood up, picked up the wine that Zheng Xie had given him, and staggered out the door.

"What an inexplicable boy......"

Zheng Xie quietly watched the old man walk out of the door, but he no longer had the intention of continuing to eat.

Bai Wushan was on the side, so he didn't know:

"Childe, what did the old man say?"

Zheng Xie looked solemn:

"The truth. ”

......

Liu Tong sat at a wooden table, and across the table was an official in a government robe.

Liu Tong looked at each other with a smile:

"Official, I'm just a businessman, so I shouldn't have done anything hurtful, right?"

The official is a man in the prime of life, his makeup is meticulous, and his expression is very serious:

"Liu Tong, you shouldn't have said it. ”

The fat man who was lying on the recliner leisurely rubbed his fingers:

"Say what?"

The solemnity in the official's eyes became stronger:

"Creation. ”

Liu Tong's action paused:

"I don't know what I am, I'm just making a deal, what kind of creation are you talking about?"

The official said coldly:

"Who can make you willingly bear the damage of the Great Dao, and go to great lengths to erase the traces and cause and effect for him? I would like to know what kind of deal can make you do it to this extent!"

The smile on Liu Tong's face also dissipated a little:

"Official, I think the people of your official family should also recognize some things clearly. This world is not your family's, the so-called creation, everyone can get it, and what deal I want to make, IMHO...... You don't care. ”

The official's face became extremely bad:

"Liu Tong, don't be ignorant!"

When Liu Tong heard this, his smile completely turned cold:

"I don't know what to do?! Your official's hand is stretched out so long, who the hell doesn't know what to do? I can do the transactions of the Yin and Yang Realms of the Bafang Pavilion, how can I not do this transaction? Creation has always coexisted with crises, and it is secretly in line with the way of heaven, everyone can try it, is it wrong?"

This official looked at Liu Tong, whose momentum suddenly skyrocketed, and a sense of crisis came to his heart, and he also held back his anger:

"Huh...... I'm just kindly reminding you that the person you have worked so hard to help should not die in that creation!"

Liu Tong's momentum slowly converged, and he changed to a smiling face:

"Then don't worry about the official. ”

The official's face was extremely ugly, and he knew that he couldn't help Liu Tong, so he could only leave a cold snort, and then disappeared without a trace.

Liu Tong sat alone at the table, tapping his knuckles on the table, as if he was in deep thought.

"Transaction...... Game ......"

............

"The truth, when did the old man tell the truth?"

Bai Wushan didn't understand what he meant.

Zheng Xie shook his head and didn't make a sound, just took Bai Wushan's hand and walked out of the restaurant.

Bai Wushan also immediately understood, there were many people in the restaurant, and the news that Zheng Xie learned was obviously not known to outsiders.

When Zheng Xie led Bai Wushan to a no-man's land outside, Zheng Xie squatted in front of Bai Wushan and said seriously:

"Wushan, let me tell you a few things, you must keep it in mind and do what I ask. ”

Bai Wushan is obviously a little unclear, so:

"Childe ......"

Zheng Xie continued:

"I'll go out for the next few days. During this time, you invite the old man on the corner to a pot of wine and a table of food every day, and if he asks you if you have anything to ask for, you have to deny it. ”

Although Bai Wushan was full of doubts, he still nodded.

"If you encounter difficulties in the future, you can ask the old man for help. And if the old man tells you that he is leaving, you must beg him to take you with him. ”

Zheng Xie said solemnly.

Bai Wushan was puzzled:

"Childe, why should I follow that old man?"

Zheng Xie smiled slightly:

"The place I'm going to is too dangerous, and the only place I can trust you with peace of mind is probably by the old man's side. ”

Bai Wushan nodded as if he didn't understand, and then hesitated:

"But...... Childe, are you going to be out for a long time?"

Zheng Xie paused, and then smiled:

"Don't worry, if I'm right, we'll be able to meet again soon. ”

Bai Wushan lowered his head, and Nuo Nuo said:

"Okay......"

Zheng Xie's eyes were full of tenderness, and he gently rubbed Bai Wushan's head:

"Well, I'll be fine. ”

Bai Wushan let out an "um", and then suddenly grabbed the corner of Zheng Xie's clothes.

Zheng Xie lowered his head, looked at Bai Wushan's slender little hand, and said in confusion:

"What are you?"

Bai Wushan lowered his head and said softly:

"My mother said that if you grab the corner of a person's clothes and say his name ten times, he will definitely come back. ”

Zheng Xie was silent.

After a long time, Bai Wushan let go of his hand, looked up and revealed slightly reddened eyes, and an unnatural smile:

"Childe, are you leaving?"

Zheng Xie looked at the well-behaved girl in front of him, and didn't know what to say for a while, just nodded slightly.

Bai Wushan bit his lip:

"Wushan will be very well-behaved. Childe has been very good to Wushan these days, and Wushan will listen to you and wait for you to come back. ”

Zheng Xie took a deep breath, then slowly stood up and helped Bai Wushan tidy up his clothes:

"The piece of jade I gave you must be put away. ”

Bai Wushan nodded solemnly:

"You can't lose it without goodness. ”

There was silence again.

Zheng Xie finally found that he had no suitable words, so he could only sigh and turn away.

And all Bai Wushan could do was watch Zheng Xie's figure disappear at the end of the street, nothing more.

The reason why Zheng Xie wanted to act like this was precisely because he probably guessed what Liu Tong's so-called "creation" had to do with it.

underworld

Everything about the Netherworld is taboo, and even some monks don't know about it. And Zheng Xie also learned many secrets about the underworld because of the classics that Bai Fu had asked him to read well.

The sloppy old man seemed to be just talking nonsense, but his words repeatedly guided Zheng Xie's thoughts in the direction of the underworld. Coupled with the speculation of Liu Tong's thoughts, he naturally thought of the world opposite to the yang.

If it is about the creation of the underworld...... Zheng Xie would never dare to bring Bai Wushan. Therefore, he chose the safest way, and handed over Bai Wushan to the sloppy old man in an almost rogue way.

It's just that if you can see Bai Wushan again......

Zheng Xie is not sure.
