Chapter Twenty-Three: The Flames
Fluttershy notices that the faces of several of the Bai family's servants are getting more nervous.
Especially the cook, who is always panicked, and at dinner, Fluttershy goes to the kitchen to serve the food herself, and when the cook sees her, her eyes flash, and she says with a smile, "The master is too lenient with them these days, and he dares to bother the girl to serve the food by herself, what is this like." ”
His eyes are still wandering out when he speaks.
Fluttershy sighed, "Hey, it's a matter of taking care of the individual now, everyone doesn't know what's wrong with the master, I'm afraid that if you don't eat or drink, you're going to become an immortal, I heard that the old lady in our early years came out of the palace, maybe there is some medicine to become an immortal." ”
The cook was startled: "Could it be that the master really hasn't eaten anything these days?" ”
"No, I don't eat or drink, and my spirit is fine." In fact, how can a normal person not eat or drink for several days, not to mention that Master Bai is an old man in his fifties, and his physical strength can't keep up at all, he is intoxicated by the comfort brought by the jade, and is not very interested in eating, and Fluttershy persuades him to cultivate the valley, because his diet is reduced these days, and he hides in his room every day and only eats some of the so-called vegetarian snacks that Fluttershy bought for him. Mr. White is so pleased with his body that he believes all of Fluttershy's words.
Chengxian cultivation is naturally carried out in secret, for fear that the surrounding laypeople will know that their cultivation has been ruined, because the servants of the Bai family are completely ignorant, and they are all like great enemies, thinking that Master Bai is silent before madness, and once it breaks out, the entire Bai family is afraid that it will be a catastrophe.
"This ...... It's kind of scary. ”
The cook lowered her voice, and Fluttershy nodded, whispering in the cook's ear, "You said, our old man and the old lady did so many things together when they were young, and now they are so short-tempered, I am afraid that there are many children who die in their hands, how can such a person become an immortal, I think he wants to become a demon." ”
"Become a demon?"
The cook gasped.
In folklore, the demon is independent of the fairy and the demon thing, the demon king is bloodthirsty and indiscriminate, in the past has always been those robber warlords who have killed countless people called the devil, for example, Zhang Xianzhong, who killed countless people in Sichuan, was called the murderous demon king. Demons want to kill people and eat human flesh, and Master Bai has too many lives on his hands and has a tyrannical temperament, which is really like a demon. Just as they were saying this, there was a bang in the gasoline stove, which startled the two of them.
"What's going on? What's going on with this stove? ”
Fluttershy takes a closer look and can't tell what's going on with the stove.
"It's okay, it's okay, this stove has been a bit hot lately, and it's not a big deal if it finishes with a few sounds."
"That's it, it scared me, I thought this stove was going to explode, such a big stove, it's really going to explode, our house is going to be destroyed, let's find a worker tomorrow to take a look, it's not a way to make such a noise."
The cook agreed, and then Fluttershy said, "Master is now dedicated to cultivation, we have to worry about other things, take care of this family, in case the master cultivates and becomes a demon, we can also buy a good one in front of him, otherwise, you can't take us first?" I've heard people say that the demon king will be bloody in the world. Ah, the big devil was assassinated by a Miss Qin a few days ago, you know? ”
"I know, I heard that person turned out to be a big warlord, killed countless people, killed Miss Qin's father during the war, this Miss Qin is also a capable person, and after enduring so many years, she finally succeeded."
The servants always go to the grocery store in the vegetable market, and although they are illiterate and do not read newspapers, they are the most well-informed.
"The one who was killed said to be the reincarnation of the Great Demon King, who killed 99,000 people to go to heaven, old and scary, I'm really afraid that our master will also become like this, and he will take our lives first when he comes out. Alas, I hope the lord will still recognize us at that time. ”
These words are tantamount to the last drop of grass that overwhelms the camel.
The cook and the others had long been afraid of it, and they couldn't escape, and they were worried that Master Bai would go berserk, and now I heard Fluttershy confirm that Master Bai was indeed cultivating into a demon without eating or drinking, and if this was really cultivated, it would not be impossible to celebrate with human lives.
Fluttershy finally said worriedly, "Auntie, we also know each other, I am the master's side, once the master wakes up, he will definitely cut me first, if I am killed by him, please help me bury me in the past, I don't want to be in the wilderness, well, I have saved a few dollars over the years, all under the dresser in my room, and I will go there to get the money when the time comes." ”
The cook's eyes were red: "Butterfly girl, don't think like this, let's all be good." Someone like this man...... Alas. ”
The cook sighed, thinking to herself what's wrong with this world, good people don't live long, and disasters live for thousands of years.
In the middle of the night, there was a loud bang on the first floor of the Bai family's mansion, and with a bang, thick smoke and fire poured out at once.
The cook coughed and ran out of the room, shouting, "The gasoline stove has exploded!" ”
Several servants ran out of the room, looked at each other, and ran out together.
The cook and the servants ran to the back garden, seeing that the small building in front of them had been surrounded by flames, and when they ran out, they had already hung the door of the small building from the outside with a lock, and the Bai family used to imprison the children, and all the windows of the rooms were equipped with iron fences, and people could not escape by jumping out of the windows.
"Hmph, whether it's an immortal or a demon, such a big fire is useless."
"Amitabha, this is a divine fire from heaven to eliminate harm for the people."
Some people keep chanting the Buddha's name.
"Oh, Butterfly Girl is still inside, Butterfly Girl hasn't come out." The cook reacted, turned around and was about to run forward, and the two of them grabbed her arm together: "What are you going to do?" ”
"No, Butterfly Girl is still inside." The cook jumped to her feet in a hurry, "Let's go and save the butterfly girl." ”
"You're crazy, the old guy has to come out when the door is opened, and we're completely dead."
"However, Miss Butterfly is a good person, and we can't die without help." The cook begged, "Let's only save the butterfly girl, regardless of the master, isn't this okay?" ”
"I said, when did you become so kind, in the past, those children were only left to play, starving to death, and I didn't see you give them a bite to eat, which will make me feel sorry for the butterfly girl, but I usually received the benefits of the butterfly girl?"
Someone sarcastically said.
"This is different, Miss Butterfly is a good person, after all, it has been two years with us."
"There are many good people in this world, haven't you heard that good people don't live long, disasters live for thousands of years, we have old and young, only the Bai family gives more wages, but when you come, you can't leave, this Bai family is the Yama Palace, and now it's hard to get rid of the Bai family, you actually want to open the door and release the devil?"
"Do you want to kill everyone?"
The cook asked with tears in her eyes, "Then, what do you say when the police come?" ”
"How so? The old man and his aunt and his wife were overindulged in the room, and they didn't come out when they caught fire, why can't you understand such a simple thing? ”
