Chapter 176: A son's life
After a night, Li Mu took Shuang'er and embarked on the journey to Qingliang Temple. Because Li Mu only bought one horse, he could only ride with Shuang'er. Originally, Shuang'er planned to let Li Mu ride a horse and use light skills to hurry up in the back, but Li Mu couldn't resist being directly hugged by Li Mu on the horse. Shuang'er blushed all the way.
At noon, the two came to a tea shed on the side of the road, Li Mu turned over and jumped off the horse, and then shouted to the shopkeeper, "The shopkeeper has two bowls of noodles, hurry up." With that, he found a clean table and sat down. Then beckoned Shuang'er to sit down together.
"Engong, I can't sit, how can anyone sit at the same table as the master, if someone sees it, he won't die of laughter." Shuang'er shook his head.
"Why can't you do it, how can people in the rivers and lakes have so many rules, if you don't eat at the same table with me, do you want me to wait for you after eating?" Li Mu pretended to be angry.
Shuang'er said, "I'll just buy a few steamed buns, and eat them while I'm in a hurry, I can't make a mistake." ”
"Let you sit and sit, the days will be long in the future, can't you still eat steamed buns every day?" Li Mu said as he pulled Shuang'er and sat down.
Shuang'er smiled, so she had to pull out a bench and sit diagonally on the corner of the table.
Soon Li Mu's noodles were served, and Li Mu picked up a bowl and ate it slowly. After a few bites, several big lamas walked in from outside, and when they entered the noodle restaurant, they said, "Bring the noodles, bring the noodles." ”
Suddenly, several lamas saw Shuang'er wearing a pair of white jade bracelets given by Li Mu on their hands, and their eyes couldn't help but shine, staring intently at the pair of bracelets.
Li Mu looked at a few people with his eyes and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, he had advanced the time so much, but he didn't expect to trigger this plot, and he couldn't help but guess which fantasy world this was created, wouldn't it be a game, as long as he led Shuang'er to the tea shed, the plot could be triggered.
Although he was suspicious in his heart, this was an opportunity for Shuang'er to know that people in the world were sinister. So, Li Mu didn't care about these people and still ate noodles.
At this time, a big lama stood up suddenly, strode towards Li Mu and the others, stretched out his hand to grab Shuang'er's wrist, and muttered, "The child stole grandpa's bracelet and didn't return it." ”
Li Mu sat next to him where would the Great Lama succeed, reached out and grabbed the Great Lama's wrist, and then kicked the Great Lama out with a kick.
Poof, the Grand Lama crashed into two tables before being picked up by his companions.
The big lama who landed on the ground rubbed his chest and said, "The little doll stole things and beat people, let's go together." ”
Shuang'er put down his chopsticks and frowned, "Engong, these monks are so rude, they take a fancy to other people's things, not to mention robbing them, and framing others." ”
"Hehe, Shuang'er, these people are just some thieves, more shameless and insidious than them are everywhere in this river and lake, so you must always be careful when walking in the rivers and lakes in the future." Li Mu pulled the last bite of noodles into his mouth, put down his chopsticks and said unsatisfied.
As he spoke, the big lamas shook their fists in a sand bowl and rushed towards Li Mu and the others.
Shuang'er just wanted to get up, but was held down by Li Mu, "You sit and watch how I clean them up." Saying that, Li Mu came to several people and knocked the big lama in front of him out with a punch, and kicked the second lama out with a flying kick, while the last lama was kicked to the ground by Li Mu's sweeping leg.
Li Mu stepped on the lama, "Do you wait or not." ”
"Convincing, convincing," the big lama smiled while suddenly pulling out a knife from his waist and stabbing at Li Mu.
"Eun Gong be careful." Shuang'er's eyes jumped over to stop the steel knife.
However, Li Mu stopped Shuang'er, only to see that he held the steel knife firmly with one hand, and the steel knife was sparkling in Li Mu's palm, but it couldn't hurt Li Mu at all.
"Shuang'er, see it, like this kind of person, even if you spare them once, they won't know that repentance will continue to harm others, so the best way to deal with this kind of person is to kill them." After speaking, Li Mu used a force under his feet, and immediately stepped on the sternum of the great lama. The great lama struggled a few times before he lost his life.
Li Mu did the same and killed the remaining two lamas together. A fire ensued and burned the three bodies.
"Gone." Li Mu looked at the mess around him and felt that he couldn't stay here, so he turned around and walked out of the tea shed, and saw the owner of the tea shed shrunk aside, Li Mu sighed and threw out a letter of silver to the boss, "Boss, you better open a store in another place, these silver are considered compensation for you." With that, he flew on his horse.
Shuang'er looked at the half-eaten noodle bowl with some pity. It's just that she also knew that she couldn't stay here for a long time, so she flew and jumped on the horse, and gently grabbed Li Mu's clothes with both hands.
"Drive!" As soon as Li Mu snorted the stirrups with his feet, the horse led the two of them to run forward.
Li Mu lived all the way to Xiaoxing and stayed overnight, and finally spent three days coming to Wutai Mountain.
"Engong, what are we doing here? Do you burn incense and make a vow? Shuang'er looked at the golden temples on Wutai Mountain and asked Li Mu suspiciously.
"No, let's kill someone." Li Mu looked at the lush mountains and said with his hands behind his back.
"Oh, is it Eungong's enemy?" Shuang'er asked with wide eyes.
"Enemies? Not really, but he is the first emperor in the Great Qing Pass, Fulin, that is, the Shizu Shunzhi Emperor you are talking about. Now that he is a monk, he is an idiot. ”
"Monk? Isn't a monk a good person? Shuang'er asked with a wink.
"Huh, good man? There are no real good and bad people in this world, and the so-called good and bad are just codes of conduct based on moral benchmarks that safeguard the interests of the vast majority of groups. The so-called self-interest is good, and self-harm is bad, and it is also an absolute truth in the theory of evolution. In other words, if a person kills hundreds or thousands of people, then in the end, as long as he puts down the butcher's knife and sincerely worships the Buddha, then he is good? So, who will tell the grievances of the souls of the dead that he killed? Therefore, there is no absolute good or evil in this world, as long as you follow your heart. Li Mu walked towards the mountain with his hands behind his back.
Shuang'er blinked her big flickering eyes, Li Mu's words were mixed with a lot of nouns that she had never heard, and she didn't understand what she said, but this did not prevent her from continuing to ask. "Then Engong, are you a good person?"
"Me?" Li Mu stopped and looked at Shuang'er, "I'm not a good person, I will kill many people for my own interests, and I will kill many people for the sake of profit, I'm just an executioner who crawls in the red dust and has blood on his hands." ”
"However, Engong avenged the third young master and the third young grandmother, and avenged dozens of families who were killed by the traitors of Aobai, for me, you are a very good person."
"The world is very dangerous, and what I have to do is also dangerous, and I have to suffer a lot of suffering, suffer a lot of crimes, and face all kinds of enemies to hunt down and challenge. These enemies will be far more powerful than you think, and this is destined to be a path of thorns and death, and you may die one day if you follow me. To tell you the truth, if this life is not predestined, I will not choose, I will give you a chance now, if you don't want this life, I can send you back, or find a stable place to settle you. Would you like to? Li Mu looked at Shuang'er's beautiful big eyes, and for the first time felt that it was a mistake to bring this little girl out.
"No, Engong is the great benefactor of the Zhuang family, Grandma Zhuang said, to the benefactor to know the kindness of the retribution. Moreover, I have worshipped thee, and thou art my master, and I will follow him wherever he goes, even to the ends of the earth. ”
"Then what if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire ahead?"
"If the master goes up the knife mountain, Shuang'er will climb with him, and if the master goes down to the sea of fire, Shuang'er will also jump."
Li Mu looked at Shuang'er's resolute face and sighed, "That's it, from today on, you will call me Gongzi." Don't call the master, I'm not used to listening to it. After this world, change the name. ”
"Got it, Childe." Shuang'er replied with a smile.
