Chapter 333: Confucian Scholars Fill Hundred Plus Diamonds [60th Hundred]
When I heard the word rice, saliva came out of my mouth. I swallowed it hard and walked over to the pot of food.
I don't know what it is. It looks like porridge and smells like meat. I stared at them, and my eyes were about to fall out.
At this time, a girl next to me handed me a broken bowl. When I got to thank me, I filled myself a bowl.
When I put my mouth to the edge of the bowl and was about to drink, I suddenly heard a woman's voice: "Can you give it to me?" "Chada is still carrying.
The sound was so close to me that I was startled. Turning his head, he saw an old woman standing next to him. Greedily sniffing the bowl in my hand.
My heart twitched, when did this old woman come? Why did you stand next to me quietly?
The old woman didn't talk to me again. Instead, he snatched the rice bowl from my hand and drank it in one gulp. Then she smacked her lips: "Not bad, not bad." Very tender. ”
I was nervous, and I wanted to get the bowl back, but I didn't dare. I knew in my heart that something was wrong, and that none of the people around me were alive. But the aroma of rice in the pot kept wafting out, and I smelled the inside of my nose, and gradually became a little confused, and I only thought in my heart, first fill my stomach before talking.
I didn't have a bowl left, so I poked my head into the pot and wanted to take two sips directly into the pot.
At this time, I heard the old man say coldly, "My porridge is not for nothing. ”
I heard the voice cold, as if it was about to kill. I couldn't help but shudder. The brain is also clear. I crawled out of the pot. At this time, I realized that this was not said to me, but to the old woman.
The old woman suddenly reached out and grabbed my wrist tightly. I struggled twice, but I didn't break free.
After she grabbed me, she didn't talk to me, but said to the old man, "It doesn't seem that these meat porridges are yours either." I'm afraid I won't need to tell you in two sips. ”
The old man said angrily: "The meat porridge is boiled in my pot, why is it not mine?" ”
The old woman suddenly pointed at me and said, "But this meat." It's this little brother's. ”
The old man suddenly changed color, and said in a low voice, "This is not the place to speak. ”
Then he strode towards the hill. The old woman sneered, followed, and reached out to hold me tightly.
I had an empty stomach and another fright. I also began to stumble when I walked.
The old man walked to a leeward place and asked in a low voice, "Where are you coming from?" ”
The old woman said lightly: "Disaster victims." Then, she took out a few copper coins: "I naturally won't drink your porridge in vain......"
The old man looked at the copper coin and said angrily: "My meat porridge was exchanged for my most precious thing. You copper coins. Can you buy it? ”
The old woman played with the copper coins and said lightly: "This copper coin is not used to buy porridge, but for fortune telling." ”
When I heard this, I burst into a rage and cried out, "Blind mother-in-law." ”
A strange smile appeared on her face: "Everyone in the world calls me a half-immortal. It's just you, call me a blind mother-in-law. That's right, my eyes are indeed blind. ”
Then, she looked back at me. By the light of the fire not far away, I saw the whites of her eyes filling her pupils, unspeakable horror.
I thought uneasily, "Why do you meet a blind woman who can tell fortunes every life?" Who the hell is she? Are they the same person? ”
Before I could figure it out, the blind woman continued, "Old man. Your so-called most precious thing is worthless in this troubled world. So, I'll drink you a bowl of porridge, and it's nothing. ”
The old man said: "A gentleman is poor, even in troubled times, the teachings of the saint can be worth a thousand gold." ”
The old woman smiled disdainfully and said, "Since you handed over such a thing, you changed it for meat porridge." At that moment, it's not worth a penny. Now that it has been sold, it is really hypocritical to talk about it again. ”
The old man shook his head firmly: "I am here to let the students live, and I am here to let the people of the world no longer suffer from the collapse of etiquette." I have a clear conscience. He paused again and said, "Moreover, I did not take a sip of the porridge." ”
The old woman said coldly: "Of course. The dead do not need to drink porridge. ”
The old man took a sharp step back, and slammed his body against the mound. He pointed to the old woman and said, "Who are you and why do you know?" ”
The old woman said lightly: "I have already said it." The world calls me a half-immortal. Then she swept the copper coin in her hand.
I looked at the old man, his thin skin covered with bones, his eyes sunken into the bones, and he looked like he was starving to death. What's more, I saw that his body was blackened, his skin was chapped, and it was filled with blackened dirt. It's like it's just dug out of the dirt.
The old man suddenly became ruthless and shouted in a low voice: "Since you have already spied through my secrets, then I can't keep you." ”
I wanted to cry without tears, and cried out, "It's none of my business, this old woman took me in." ”
The old woman was not afraid, she said lightly: "As long as I shout before I die, your students will know what they have eaten for days." When the time comes, all your plans will be in vain. ”
The old man's momentum immediately stopped. He leaned against the mound and said as if pleading, "Please don't tell them, they are the last hope." ”
The old woman said lightly: "Since I didn't say anything about it just now, I just left you a little leeway." ”
The old man thanked him again and again.
And I couldn't help but ask the old woman, "What did he hand over?" In exchange for that pot of meat porridge? ”
The old man bowed his head and remained silent. And the old woman said: "The things he handed over are the ways of Confucius and Mencius that he learned from decades of hard study." It's also what he lives in. ”
The old woman said such a string, but I didn't understand much. But he didn't dare to ask, so he asked, "What about the pot?" What is boiled? ”
The old woman laughed gloomily: "Hehe, don't you know?" They cook your folks. Last night, it was the father of the plug, and today it is the plug. Tut-tut, their family is also reunited in these people's five internal organs temple. ”
I looked at the old man dumbfounded, and I felt really sick in my heart: Fortunately, fortunately, I didn't drink porridge just now.
I suddenly understood, pointed to the old man and said, "Those corpses, those corpses were stolen by you." How can you do such a thing, are you still a reader? What gentleman is poor, what sacrifices his life for righteousness......"
After I finished scolding these two sentences, I was suddenly afraid again, the other party is a terrible ghost who steals the corpse, in case I am angry and ashamed, I am afraid that I will eat tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, the old man looked depressed and looked desperate: "Yes, I don't deserve to be a reader." I handed over the teachings of the saints, the foundation of my life. I was brazen and frenzied to steal corpses and cook them into porridge. But...... But I'm here for my students. They are still young, and I want them to live, study hard, govern the world, and let this absurdity never happen again. They don't know what they're eating, and they should never let them know. ”
The old woman said lightly: "You are not guilty of doing this. One day when you enter the Netherworld, the king of Yama will settle the account, and I am afraid that he will send you to the eighteenth layer of hell. ”
The old man's body trembled violently, and then he said with some firmness: "Although there are ten thousand people, I will go." ”
The old woman laughed and said, "You old pedants, you don't have other skills, but you can put gold on your face." Immediately afterwards, she said with a straight face: "I can't drink your meat porridge for nothing, since the meat porridge has entered the stomach, then I will use a hexagram to repay it." Do you want me to help you calculate, what is the situation in the underworld? ”
The old man looked up sharply, and it was evident that he wanted to know too. However, he eventually shook his head: "Don't forget it for me. I don't have the guts to know. You can do the math for my students. ”
The old woman twisted the copper coin with her hand, flipped it back and forth a few times, and then said leisurely: "You students, after decades, are all pillars of talent. Their ability to govern the world is very clever, the world is peaceful, the wind and rain are smooth, and the life of the common people is very good. ”
The old man nodded with satisfaction: "That's good, that's good." ”
However, the old woman suddenly turned around: "However, at that time, they all took refuge in other races, and they were considered traitors." ”
