Chapter 83: The Cycle of Cause and Effect

"Why are you here?!"

The village chief saw that the people who were supposed to leave did not leave, but appeared here, and found out the secret they were desperately hiding, and he was angry and panicked.

"Why can't I be here?" Lian Hua approached the two of them in a joking tone.

"You...... You...... You ......" The village chief pointed at Lian Hua, not knowing what to say for a while.

Lian Hua said, "I...... I...... I...... It is to see what should not be seen, and find people who should not be found. ”

"So what?" the village chief came up angrily and glared at Lian Hua angrily. "You untrustworthy people, go back on your word. ”

Lian Hua looked at the village chief and smiled, "Didn't the village chief remember wrong? Did you find someone to pretend to be crazy and desperately drive us out of the village, but now you say that we are going back on our word? The village chief is really the village chief, so bold and scheming." ”

The village chief retorted, "So what? I just don't want to keep you, I just want to kick you out." Now in this village, it's still up to me, if you're not convinced, you'll kill us all!"

"Hey. Don't be so angry. Lian Hua sat down by the fire very naturally as he spoke, facing Xu Weng. "What do I want the lives of all your villagers? I can't eat them, I want the people in front of me from beginning to end. ”

"Childe, you are not a mortal. Xu Weng took a sip of wine and said slowly.

"Yes. Xu Weng is not an ordinary person, is he?"

The village chief next to him didn't know when the spell was cast, and he stood in place with an angry face, motionless.

Xu Weng sighed, "What if it's a mortal? What if it's not a mortal? It's not the same life, the same life." ”

Lian Hua moved his position and leaned closer to Xu Weng, avoiding the fierce gaze of the village chief before slowly speaking.

"I'll admit that this time we were wrong. But if you don't leave without pretense, how can the village chief take us to find you? In fact, with Xu Weng's ability, leaving here is just a matter of thinking and not wanting to. Forgive me for my bold speculation, in fact, Xu Weng has been waiting for us, because you don't want the villagers to be implicated by you, and you can't bear to see the people of the world die due to the cannibalistic epidemic. ”

Xu Weng took the flask and smiled, "Why don't I remember that I had this thought?"

The fragrance of roast chicken wafted in, and Lian Hua, who had not eaten fireworks in the world for many years, couldn't help but be hungry. Staring at the roast chicken, my thoughts are long gone.

"I said Xu Weng, is your chicken burnt?"

"Really?" Xu Weng lifted the chicken up and looked up and down, "It's not scorched! Are you dazzled?"

"Scorched, look. Lianhua was in a relatively scorched place, "There is still wine, and this chicken is almost cooked, why don't we eat it first, and then talk about business after eating, Xu Weng, what do you think?"

Xu Weng looked Lian Hua up and down, "Immortals are not Bigu, but they don't eat grains?"

Lian Hua waved his hand, "I only said that it was inedible, but I didn't say that it was not edible." And I have never followed those mortal etiquette, we still eat chicken, and then talk about other things after eating. ”

Xu Weng now understood that he understood Lian Hua's intentions, and silently moved to the side, "This chicken is only enough for one person to eat." ”

"As the saying goes, meeting is fate, isn't it a blessing that you and I have met here today for a few lifetimes......? Xu Weng, it's not difficult to drink together, right?"

Xu Weng still wanted to refuse, but Lian Hua immediately came up and looked at the roast chicken. Xu Weng turned his head to look at Lian Hua, and then at the roast chicken, so he had no choice but to divide half of the chicken to Lian Hua.

The cool breeze blew, the bonfire made a crackling sound, Lian Hua ate chicken and drank not too strong rice wine, his heart was warm and satisfied for a long time, as if he had found something.

"How is this chicken?, isn't it?" Xu Weng took a sip of wine and looked at Lian Hua proudly.

"I can't put it into words, this chicken reminds me of some things in the past, those memories that have been hidden in my heart for a long time. ”

Xu Weng said, "Immortals, they can't escape the pollution of the world...... Everyone said that cultivating the Tao and becoming an immortal should be far away from all the troubles and sufferings of the world, and that they would be at ease, so happy. But who knew that immortals were also made of mortal ascension, and how could the seven emotions and six desires in them be so easy to cut off? ”

Lian Hua looked at Xu Weng frowning, and said with a smile, "I said Xu Weng, it's really not wrong that they call you Xu Weng, I think you are more like an immortal than me?"

"Yes, it's just that I've experienced more things and realized more. Xu Weng handed the wine in his hand to Lian Hua. "It is also my honor to be able to talk to the immortals in the sky. ”

Lian Hua took the wine's hand and paused, "Xu Weng really has a way to cure the cannibal plague?"

"The first time the cannibal plague appeared was in front of the three hundred, I was not here at that time, I was playing in a border town in the country of Munan. When the epidemic first broke out, countless people in Lexu lost their humanity and lived by cannibalism and blood sucking. But Mu Nanguo didn't see a trace of blood, I sat in the teahouse and drank tea, and I could hear them talk about the tragic situation of Le Xu every day. Some people say that this is the day to die, and Mu Nan will soon unify the Three Kingdoms, and then the world will be Mu Nan's world. ”

Lian Hua said, "This is obviously wrong, even if God wants to punish him, he will not let the innocent people in the world suffer." This epidemic, as long as you think about it carefully, you will know that it is done by people with intentions. ”

Xu Weng laughed twice self-deprecatingly, "It's a pity that I can't see through someone with a heart...... I stood outside the teahouse, looking at the people who had fled from Lexu, sad or happy, alive or dead. obviously wanted to return to Lexu, but in the way of his life, he changed his surname and lived in the world in another way that they hated. In fact, I have no concept of good and evil in the world, I only know that those people are pitiful and want to help them. I went to the capital of Munan and told them that I could cure the cannibal plague, and hoped that they would negotiate with Le Xu and save the innocent people. ”

Lian Hua was silent for a long time when he heard this, this ordinary person knows that this matter is inseparable from Mu Nanguo, this Xu Weng is still in a hurry to jump into the pit, it seems that Xu Weng three hundred years ago was really stupid enough. But even Hua didn't dare to say it directly, so he continued pretendically. "So...... You've been caught?"

Xu Weng snorted, "They put me in prison." ”

Lian Hua said, "No, you are not a mortal, you should have some self-defense techniques on your body, can't you just get a stealth technique?"

"When they heard that I could cure the cannibal plague, they found a Taoist priest with a bit of cultivation out of nowhere, and they saw through my identity on the spot. ”

Then you don't have to think about it to know what happened, Lian Hua silently sighed a few words in his heart. "So...... When did you come out?"

"I can't remember exactly, it seems that Le Xu killed Mu Nan in the year, the Taoist priest's talisman that imprisoned me failed, and I escaped from prison. Only after he came out did he know that the cannibal plague had been resolved, and the monarch of Mu Nan had accepted the punishment he deserved. ”

"Later, you came to Daohua Village?" Lian Hua said suspiciously.

"The world is peaceful, the epidemic is solved, and there is no place for me. Find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers and a happy life is suitable for me. ”

"No wonder the rice in Daohua Village is different from other places, and the reason why you dare to love is because of you?"

Xu Weng drank the last sip of wine, and his face was reluctant to hide it. The same can be said. ”

"For the sake of the story you told, there is still a little bit of meaning, I invite you for this wine!" After Yun Zhu finished speaking, he looked into the ruins, took out two jars of Baihua Brew from it, and threw one to Xu Weng.

Baihua Brew deserves to be the best in the wine, based on Baihua, and the cold water of the Tianshan Mountains is the guide. Hundred flowers absorb the essence of heaven and earth, condense pure gas, and the extremely cold water of Tianshui completely preserves and refines the fragrance of hundreds of flowers, and ferments in the ground for decades. The fragrance is instantly intoxicating, as if in early spring, a hundred flowers are in full bloom and you are fascinated by it.

"Good wine. Xu Weng took the wine jug, "I haven't seen its face, but I have smelled its fragrance." The aroma of the wine is not strong or bright, just to the heart. ”

"Well, I'm very knowledgeable. Lian Hua nodded approvingly, "Can my family's own wine taste bad?"

"Brewed yourself?"

"That's the best in the world. How many people can't drink if they want to, today you are old and I have a fate, so I invite you to drink. ”

Xu Weng couldn't resist the seduction of the aroma of wine, and opened it and took a sip.

"How's it going?

"The entrance is crisp, but without losing the dark fragrance of a hundred flowers, the wine and aroma are perfectly integrated. It is a good wine that enters the throat and leaves a fragrance on the teeth and cheeks. It's just this wine, I always feel like I've drunk it somewhere. ”

"Have you drunk?" Lian Hua wondered, "Could it be that you drank it hundreds of years ago?"

"Forgot. Xu Weng said.

"Forget it, if you can't remember, you don't want to. By the way, the mouth of cannibalism is soft, and the hands of cannibalism are short, have you heard this sentence? Now that you have drunk my wine, the matter of cannibalism will be handed over to you!" Lian Hua changed the topic smoothly.

When Xu Weng heard this, he paused his drinking hands and had a complicated look in his eyes.

"No, you still wanted to save people three hundred years ago, why is God letting you choose again, but you hesitate. If you want me to say, not all regrets have a chance to make amends. ”

Xu Weng reluctantly drank a sip of Baihua Brew, "Yes, everything is destiny, and it is not up to anyone." lived for three hundred years, traveled all over the land of China, and met so many people, Xu Weng earned it. ”

"No, I just want you to tell you how to save people, how do you make life and death like parting?" Lian Hua felt strange when he heard what Xu Weng said.

"I promised, save people. But I can go with you tomorrow. ”

"Uh-huh, you agreed?" Lian Hua, who had prepared a lot of rhetoric, heard Xu Weng agree so readily, he didn't know what to say for a while, and poured a big sip of wine into his mouth.

The wine is down, and the courage rises. "Okay, they're waiting in the mountains, and I'll send a letter informing you that it's done, and we'll leave tomorrow. ”

After Lian Hua finished speaking, he raised his hand and turned into a crane to spread the news.

It's extremely cold at night in the mountains, and even if the fire is burning, you can still feel the chill coming from behind.

General Zhang and a few soldiers who came with him had to wrap their clothes tightly to make themselves feel less difficult.
