CHAPTER XXIII. 6
The remains of the hundred-legged earth dragon were not of much value.
It took a night of hard work on the rat assembly line of the fifth master of the fire, and finally dismantled the train-like corpse. He put the wreckage in his pocket and promised to send some to Boss Zhu and Boss Gao to use as materials.
Si Chen sat on the ground with a vacant look in his eyes. Huo Wuye, Zhu and Gao, the two bosses, didn't do much about his state, but they didn't care very much.
Youkai are always youkai and look at human grief in the same way that humans look at animals.
I couldn't bear it, but I didn't bother with it.
The dawn sun shone on Si Chen's body, and the original plain monk's uniform was already tattered and stained.
Embarrassed like a mourning dog.
Zuo Kui looked at Si Chen for a long time, he picked up Si Chen's sword and handed it to him.
In the surprised eyes of several people, Zuo Kui said lightly: "You should kill yourself." ”
Si Chen looked at him, a little confused.
"Hopefully, only what you see is what you really see. Even if we tell you that you are already a good human being, and you have the opportunity to surpass me in the future, it is in vain if you don't believe it. ”
Zuo Kui pushed the sword in front of Si Chen again.
"Escape, escape is also a way, admitting defeat is also a result, and a dead end is also a way. If you can't stand and cross a hurdle, then it's okay to turn into a corpse and pass sideways. ”
Si Chen's hand reached for the sword, and the speed was slow, as if it had been filled with lead.
His hands hovered in the air, unable to move forward.
Most of the things like seeking death are determined by impulse.
If you don't die, it will be more and more difficult to do it again.
Zuo Kui looked at him, threw his sword, and plunged it into the ground.
"Waste." Zuo Kui said lightly.
Si Chen's body trembled, and his hand fell weakly.
Huo Wuye said: "The left shopkeeper, when did you think of the matter of the earth dragon?" When I go to Liufangzhai to discuss with you, if you say it directly, I will ask the shopkeeper to go out of the mountain together. ”
Zuo Kui said: "I had a vague impression at the time, but because I didn't remember it deeply, I didn't think about it for a while." It wasn't until I saw the broken corpses and realized that it was caused by the venom of the multi-eyed centipede. ”
Zuo Kui said, and then turned to Boss Zhu: "There are Boss Zhu's birds running around to deliver messages, thank you for me." ”
Boss Zhu snorted happily twice and nodded again and again.
The remains of the hundred-legged earth dragon were finally dismembered. Boss Gao said to a few people: "It's so big, mortals must have to toss." It's not a good place to stay for long, so let's go. ”
Huo Wuye, Zhu and Gao walked out of the valley. Zuo Kui glanced at Si Chen, who was distracted, and carried him up without saying anything.
Si Chen did not resist, and silently lay on Zuo Kui's back, closing his eyes and saying nothing.
The scorching sun finally broke through the clouds completely, and he looked at a messy valley in silence.
What will happen to the real estate project, these people don't care at all.
Money is not important to them. This kind of inhumane incident can only make the developer suffer a dumb loss.
For the industry, they solve the incident, but they don't ask for compensation.
Don't break the rules, don't damage your reputation.
In the cycle of cause and effect, God is always just.
Si Chen was carried back to Boss Gao's shop by Zuo Kui. Boss Gao has a lot of magical herbs, which are enough to treat Si Chen.
The young man in Boss Gao's shop was short in stature and had a wooden face, like a wooden man. Zuo Kui put Si Chen in the courtyard, and the young man gave him some medicine to stop bleeding and bruising.
Boss Gao asked the young man to boil some internal medicine for Si Chen to regulate his body, and the young man took the prescription into the house.
In the middle of the courtyard is the coffin of the multi-eyed centipede monarch, the coffin is closed, exuding a faint earthy and metallic smell.
Zuo Kui looked at it and said, "It's not rusty at all." ”
Boss Gao said: "It will not rot for thousands of years, and it will not be rusty for 10,000 years." ”
"What's the use of this thing?"
"What is put in, time will stand still and will not deteriorate; And with a strong spell blessing, it is a high-grade psychic baby. ”
Zuo Kui was silent for a moment and said, "That Chang Baicao ......"
"His soul was taken away by the Fifth Master of Fire, and it was just a corpse inside."
Boss Gao said, folded his hands, and lowered his head.
Many vines grew in the ground beneath the coffin, and they dug through the dirt beneath the coffin and sank it in.
Eventually, the land was filled in. Except for the ground that has been turned up, it seems that there has never been such a coffin in the world.
"Isn't it a pity?" Si Chen, who was lying on the side, said suddenly.
For a monk, the appeal of these things speaks for itself. He forgot his emotions for a moment and blurted out.
Zuo Kui and Boss Gao looked at him. Si Chen blushed and lowered his head.
Boss Gao casually stepped on the land a few times and tamped the land a little.
"No matter how good the baby is, it's also used to make it. Since you want to use it, why don't you use it all the same? ”
Boss Gao walked into the house with a smile: "I'll go and see how the medicine is." ”
Only Zuo Kui and Si Chen were left in the courtyard, and they were silent.
Zuo Kui always ignored Si Chen, looked at the place where the Wujun official was buried, and thought about it.
Si Chen's hatred was still there, but he couldn't come out.
These people from the demon street made him feel the gap. An inexplicable awe loomed in his heart, making him unable to be arrogant.
Si Chen thought for a long time, and finally said:
"Even if you save me, I won't thank you."
"Hmm."
Zuo Kui didn't even look back, just nodded mechanically.
"I live and will always be your opponent! Your trouble! Si Chen raised his voice.
Zuo Kui repeated the last action and still didn't look back.
Si Chen couldn't help it, and finally yelled: "Can't you just look at me once?" I'm not worth mentioning?! ”
After Si Chen finished shouting, he lacked confidence and coughed violently.
Zuo Kui turned his head, glanced at him, and turned back again.
"I'm done." Zuo Kui said.
Si Chen's qi and blood surged, and he roared again: "You ......"
"You're always thinking about too many things that don't make sense." Zuo Kui turned around and interrupted him: "What about looking at you?" What if you don't have you in sight? Could it be that if all the eyes of all the people in the world are on you, can you have the power to control the universe? ”
Si Chen looked at Zuo Kui and couldn't refute a word.
"Frustration, humiliation, failure, these are the same things that help you surpass others and yourself, just like talent and hard work. If you can't accept them, you'll be defeated by them. ”
Si Chen's pupils slowly left Zuo Kui's body, swaying aimlessly. His mouth was furrowed, his brow twitching.
The young man brought out a bowl of medicinal soup, and Si Chen drank it mechanically, with a wooden expression.
Zuo Kui watched him drink the medicine, motionless like a statue.
Si Chen drank all the medicine and felt that his body had recovered a lot immediately.
It's incredible. Si Chen thought.
He gently put the bowl aside, stood up, and said to Zuo Kui:
"I'll win you."
After Si Chen finished speaking, he didn't wait for Zuo Kui to answer. He dragged his body and stumbled out of Boss Gao's shop.
Si Chen looked at the place where he had disappeared, still not moving.
Boss Gao walked out with a smile and said, "Unraveled?" ”
"Probably." Zuo Kui said.
Boss Gao laughed for a while, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
"Boss Zuo, you lost too much money this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to settle the account."
Zuo Kui was silent for a while, and said, "May I ask Boss Gao, did I do anything wrong?" ”
Boss Gao shook his head and said, "It's reasonable, but it defies the time." ”
"Reasonable, but ...... against the sky"
Zuo Kui sighed heavily and said, "So, this is a 'catastrophe', and there is no way to avoid it." ”
After Zuo Kui finished speaking, he also left Boss Gao's shop.
Boss Gao looked at the direction Zuo Kui left and said nothing.
A leaf in the courtyard fell off its branches, rolled in the air for a long time, and finally fell to the ground.
