Chapter 319: The Man Who Can't Afford Steamed Buns

The second master probably didn't expect me to have this kind of attitude, he first stared at me in surprise for a while, and then frowned, as if he was pondering what I was thinking.

I do have some ideas, just a few days ago, I discussed with Liang Houzai a routine to deal with the Outer Heavenly Master, in this routine, Liu Wenhui, who was most suspected by Liang Houzai, was the key, and we discussed how to contact him before, and came up with more than a dozen plans for this, but I didn't expect him to come to the door by himself.

The two of us have developed a complex routine, but in general, it can be summed up in four words: want to catch and indulge.

To be honest, Liang Houzai and I couldn't tell if this routine would work, and we didn't know how the real Outer Heavenly Master would react if we wanted to capture and indulge in it. But as it stands, it's better to have a little routine than no idea at all.

No one around spoke, Liu Wenhui kept staring at me, and after a long time, he smiled a little awkwardly: "How can you doubt me...... Is it an Outer Heavenly Master? ”

I first replied to him very simply, "intuition", and then explained to him: "It's not that I am biased against you, I just think you are strange, you were all present when the three 'Outer Heavenly Masters' lost their souls, and Li Hu and Mao Chi were specially wanted to meet by yourself, so I always felt that you were the one who made them lose their souls." ”

As I spoke, I kept staring into Liu Wenhui's eyes, and there was a hint of uneasiness and trepidation in his eyes, as well as a hint of disbelief. This seems to be the look of a person who has been mistakenly suspected.

He didn't speak, and I continued, "Because you're suspicious, I won't have any separate contact with you, which would make me suspicious too." I don't know what you're trying to say, but whatever you say to me, I'll tell the people around me as it is, so you don't have to think about the walls having ears, and everyone will know anyway in the end. But...... If you really can't let down that little bit of guard in your heart, then forget it, I'm not interested in that funeral cult anyway. ”

After that, I pushed the car and walked in the opposite direction to the playground.

Unexpectedly, Liu Wenhui grabbed my arm and said to me anxiously, "But haven't you been investigating the funeral religion?" ”

His reaction made me feel abnormal.

I turned my head to look at him and said, "yes, so what? I'm just saying I'm not interested in the Burial Cult, but I'm not denying that we're looking into it. It's not my business to investigate it anyway, people in our vein, just take action when it's time to make a move. ”

Liu Wenhui's body was so weak that he didn't pretend to be fake, when he grabbed me, he had almost no strength in his hands, but I didn't break free from him, just stood in place, while talking, carefully observing his expression, and he kept staring at me.

From beginning to end, his face was filled with the kind of aggrieved expression that he had been mistaken, and other than that, there was only anxiety.

I wondered what he was anxious about.

He was silent for a long time before he said to me, "The people in the organization will come back to me." ”

I frowned, "What do you mean?" ”

Liu Wenhui was silent for a while, and it took a long time before he spoke: "I have been ...... since I was a child I was raised as a sacrifice to the organization, but now that the sacrifice has failed, I am still alive, and this kind of thing is absolutely impossible for the organization to tolerate. They will come back and take my life. Now, you are the only ones who can save me. ”

The implication is that what he is going to say today may directly affect whether we can save his life. That's why he's anxious.

I sighed and said to him, "You also said that the one who can save you is 'us', not 'me'. Therefore, it is better to say your words in front of everyone. ”

Liu Wenhui was still silent, silent for a long time.

It wasn't until I was a little tired of waiting that he made a great determination, gritted his teeth, and then said, "All right, but you have to promise that no matter what I say later, you won't hit me." ”

Liang Houzai and I glanced at each other, and then looked at the second master, who also had a puzzled expression on the second monk.

But I still nodded at Liu Wenhui: "Don't worry, we won't do anything to you." ”

Liu Wenhui was a little relieved and exhaled briefly.

Then we took him into the playground, and he seemed to be really worried that his words would be heard, and after entering the playground, he deliberately walked to an open space that no one approached.

This open space is the training place of the school's martial arts team, and there are two very mixed people in the martial arts team of our two senior years, who are considered powerful figures in the school's hippie gangsters, and they have threatened that this land is the territory of their martial arts team, and others can't use it, so that no one usually comes to this place.

In fact, I can understand that they do this, after all, those who practice their kind of competitive routines generally need a large practice field, and the sports space in the school is relatively tight, so it is understandable for them to occupy the field like this.

But I heard that some time ago, there was a junior sports student who was beaten by the martial arts team because he practiced powerlifting on the territory of the martial arts team. I heard that it was the martial arts team that couldn't help but say that they would beat people when they came up, and the sports student on our temporary shift was put down before he could react.

To be honest, it's a bit too much to do this, you can protect the field, make it clear, let people move a place for you, just do it for such a piece of land, this kind of behavior is not only dishonorable, but also seems to be very mentally retarded.

However, Master didn't let me care about this kind of thing, saying that the poor person must have something to hate, and if the person who was beaten felt aggrieved, he had to learn to resist.

When we got to the clearing, a few people spotted us and approached us, and asked us what we were doing.

At this moment, the second master turned his head and gave them a look, and then the group didn't say a second word, turned around and left.

Seeing that there was no one around, Liu Wenhui straightened out his thoughts and chattered.

At first, he didn't say anything serious, only said that after his parents died, his life was embarrassing, hungry and full, it was very good to be able to eat a mouthful of hot wotou, in the seventies and eighties, there were not so many welfare homes now, no one took him in at that time, and in winter, there was no warm place to stay.

According to Liu Wenhui himself, it is already a miracle that he survived. His hometown is one of the poorest villages in the Dongxiang generation, because the terrain of the village is too low, one year it rained heavily, and it rained for a long time, flooding all the land in the village, the crops were waterlogged, the chickens and ducks were also infected with the plague, and the people in the village had no food to eat, let alone take care of him. It was also in that year that an old woman who bought sweet potatoes often came on the dirt road outside Dongxiang, who was a kind person, seeing Liu Wenhui pitiful, every time he saw him, he would give him some sweet potatoes to satisfy his hunger.

During that time, he relied on these mouthfuls of sweet potatoes to survive with difficulty.

I asked Liu Wenhui if they had nothing to eat in their village, so couldn't they go to the neighboring village to ask for some?

Liu Wenhui sighed and said: "In the thirties, there was a cannibalism in our village, and in the seventies and eighties, the people in the nearby villages still regarded the people in our village as monsters, and the situation gradually improved after ninety-seven years. ”

The second master asked him beside him: "People eat people?" Is there a famine? ”

"No," Liu Wenhui shook his head: "I heard the older generation say that the person who eats people is the god man in the village, I don't know what evil exercises he has practiced, and he must eat human flesh to continue his life, and then the god man died, but he left an apprentice, everyone in Dongxiang knows that he has an apprentice in the same village, but no one knows who his apprentice is." Probably because of this, after Shenhan died, the people in our village became the object of suspicion. In '97, the reputation of our village was good, and it was also because in that year, the village's grandmother Liu Si died, and she was the last one among the villagers born before the thirties. ”

After finishing it, Liu Wenhui shifted the topic to the main topic and talked about the things in the funeral religion.

He said that in fact, as early as ten years ago, a funeral priest approached him, saying that he wanted to pull him into an organization, and he didn't have to do anything, just sign up and follow the process.

Liu Wenhui was a relatively smart person, but he suspected that the other party was a cult organization, so he didn't go.

But at the end of '97, the funeral people went to him again, saying that as long as he could join the organization, he didn't have to do anything, and he could get a living allowance of 2,000 yuan a month.

For our small place, in ninety-seven years, two thousand yuan is already a lot of money, and Liu Wenhui has not been able to find a serious job because he has no diploma, and he finally fell into the eyes of money and entered the funeral religion.

Regarding the matter of joining the church, Liu Wenhui's explanation is also very simple: I am afraid of poverty. Since he was a child, he was really poor.

He said that people like me can't understand the feeling of watching others buy steamed buns, so he can only squat next to the steamed bun shop and smell the heat and fragrance. But for him, this humble embarrassment has always accompanied his growth, until ninety-seven years later, the two thousand yuan made him a man who has money to buy steamed buns.

At that time, he didn't have too high ideals, he just wanted to be like others, to be able to live in a sheltered place and eat enough at every meal. For him at that time, there were only two types of people in this world, one was those who could afford steamed buns, and the other was those who couldn't afford them.

But he, a person with such a simple outlook on life and worldview, suspected that the other party might be a cult when he was recruited by the Burial Sect for the first time. I guess that doesn't make sense.

Liu Wenhui said that the person who recruited him into the funeral sect was Li Hu, and the person who really introduced him to the sect was Cui Lao, who had never heard of the name of the Outer Heavenly Master, Li Hu was Li Hu, and Cui Lao was only Cui Lao. It wasn't until a year ago that he heard that Li Hu and Cui Lao were both Outer Heavenly Masters who could save people from suffering and make people's souls immortal, and that was in the same year that he learned that his parents were also members of the Funeral Sect.

Cui Lao told Liu Wenhui that his parents did not die, but sacrificed their bodies to the true God, and their souls received eternal life from the gods. At first, Liu Wenhui didn't believe these nonsense, but in the following year or so, Cui Lao and Li Hu completely brainwashed him.
