"Actually, it's a kind of retribution."

Shi Lao said with a smile.

"And what is the purpose of telling me this now?"

Shi Xing asked suspiciously.

"I'm not long dying, I'm getting weaker, and there must be an heir to help these wild cats. Perhaps this thing seems boring and childish to you. But the little ones who appear outside my house every night look forward to the day when they can become goblins, or at least for them, maybe they will be able to control their own destiny. It's the same as the poor people always look forward to the day when they become rich, and the rich people always look forward to gaining power. My acre of land is where they are transformed. Like the dragon gate in the eyes of a carp. Ahem......"

Shi Lao coughed a few times, shook his head and said.

"You're doing the right thing, but I'm not interested."

Shi Xing understood that this was only part of the illusion, so there was a look of indifference in his words.

"Really? That's a pity, I thought you could inherit my mantle......" Seeing that Shi Lao was a little disappointed, Shi Xing stood up, and then said, "I will write down some Buddhist exercises, you can take them to practice to adjust your body a little, maybe you can live a few more years, I can't help you, to be precise, I can't protect myself." ”

"Then please do me a favor......

Just as Shi Xing turned around to walk out, he heard Shi Lao suddenly say in a loud voice behind him. Нёǐуапge.сОМ

"The old demon is coming soon. There are some rumors on the rivers and lakes, they should come to me for revenge, I will find a way to lure it out of the city, and I will carry a piece of fake demon pill on my body. I'll stay here for the real demon pill, please keep it. If you can't inherit my mantle, find someone who can inherit my will, and give him the demon pill and the notes I left behind. For these wild cats too. For the sake of a little love. Please pass on my last wishes. ”

Shi Lao stood up, stretched out his hand to clench his fists, and then slowly bent down and bowed deeply.

Shi Xing looked at him, knowing that this was an illusion, but he was still touched in his heart, and he did not agree or directly refuse. He turned and walked out of the house, only to see a flock of wild cats sitting quietly in the open doorway, looking inside.

Does the world care about these little creatures? In fact, they don't care, how many people will really cry over the death of a wild cat? Will there be a funeral for the death of a feral cat?

Because such a life is insignificant in the eyes of human beings, so small that it can be ignored.

It's just that when a pair of eyes under the dark night looked at Shi Xing, everything in Rao is illusion still deeply touched his heart, Shi Xing frowned, and said, "Don't look at me like that, I didn't say I wanted to help you!" ”

The wild cat looked at him quietly, but heard Shi Lao whisper, "They are also life, right?" ”

Shi Xing waved his hand and hurried back to his room, closing the door, everything outside was no longer audible. Just looking at the night sky outside the skylight, he couldn't sleep.

I still remember that when I first entered the temple when I was a child, the first thing Master Kong Jing said to him was: "When one day you understand the true meaning of the phrase equality of all beings, when you will make way for an ant and recite a sutra for the fallen leaves falling from the tree, that is when you really understand the meaning of the sutra." ”

Shi Xing put his hands behind his head, if he dies in the illusion, he will also die, is it worth it for a group of wild cats? The master said that all beings are equal, but it is so difficult to practice......

For several days, Shi Xing didn't talk to Shi Lao, and at night, through the skylight, he could see the wild cat lying on his stomach at the door outside.

When your life is threatened, maybe all you can do is protect yourself, after all, we are not saints, all we can do is to keep ourselves from dying.

"The rivers and lakes are uploaded, and the old demon will come to me tomorrow. You can't live here, I think the weather is pretty good today, you can go. ”

Shi Lao sat in the courtyard, looking at the sky outside, with a faint smile on his face, Shi Xing frowned and said, "Tomorrow?" So what do you do? ”

"I will hide the real demon pill in the courtyard, and then lure the old demon away alone. If you can kill it, it's good, but if you can't kill it, I hope it can't find the demon pill. It's just a pity that those little guys have no end in their lives from now on. ”

Shi Lao laughed rarely, and Shi Xing saw that he was holding the photo in his hand, and his eyes were closed and he was gradually falling asleep in the sun. At this time, the old man lost the yin qi before, but he was a little more calm and serene, and there seemed to be a power that made people feel warm.

"Then take care."

Shi Xing bowed to Shi Lao and then withdrew.

On the same day, Shi Xing left the house with the sack on his back, and walked all the way back in the direction of the village, now the world outside this phantom is still too chaotic, it is better to go back to the village for a while first, and find out if there is a way to restore his cultivation.

The night was very deep, the cold wind was gusting, the town was quiet, Shi Lao opened the door and saw the wild cats waiting at the door, as soon as he saw him, he immediately got out of the way, Shi Lao smiled and said: "Little guys, we will say goodbye as soon as today is over, you should run for your lives quickly." ”

He bent down, the flower cat jumped over and landed at his feet, rubbing lightly on his body, Shi Lao said with a smile: "In the future, don't be deceived by a guy like me." There are not many good people in the world, so remember them. This time, I owe it to you, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will also be reincarnated as a cat, haha......"

There was a large black cloud floating in the air in the distance, and it was getting closer and closer, something seemed to be surging in the black cloud, and a strange shout came from the air, Elder Shi sighed, and then said, "It's still coming." ”

At this time, Shi Xing had already arrived at home, and the village chief hurried over with people, and after entering the door, he asked, "Xiao Shi, is the money coming back?" ”

Shi Xing hugged the sack and shook his head and said, "No, there are no clues." ”

", you didn't ask for the money back, so what are you doing when you come back?"

"It's like, why are you coming back without money? This is a task assigned to you by the village, you don't think about how to complete it, what's the use of coming back stupidly? Let's go, let's go beg for money! ”

The shouts around came and went, but no one was helping Shi Xing speak, the world was hot and cold, and the faces of the world were unobstructed, Shi Xing raised his head and looked at the faces of everyone, shook his head and shouted: "Then why don't you go and ask for it yourself?" ”

This shout made everyone stunned, and the people who had been honest in the eyes of the village chief and others suddenly broke out, Shi Xing pushed away a few people in front of him, and then shouted: "You are greedy, you invested money in that project, and now you have been deceived and come to bully me?" What's the matter with me? I didn't do anything, you guys are stupid, what do you blame me for? What is the use of giving me more than a hundred dollars? You're going to bully! ”

When he shouted like this, the big guy was stunned for a moment, and then after a moment of silence, someone suddenly shouted: ", you're not happy to let you go to collect debts, are you?" What do you say with a scolding grin, hit me! ”

Then the people around came around, and Shi Xing, who had not cultivated in his body, even remembered some kung fu at this moment, but there were too many people around, so he didn't hold on for much time and was thrown to the ground, and after falling to the ground, he was kicked several times in a row, until the person next to him came out and shouted: "Don't fight, otherwise someone will die in a while." ”

"Fuck, what a fool, you can't fight it."

Several people pointed at Shi Xing and scolded, Shi Xing held his head, and was a little dazzled, but at this time, the person behind him picked up his sack, a green stone fell out of the sack, and the green light emitted shone on the faces of everyone around, and everyone's eyes were attracted at this moment.

"Jewels! This kid has gems on him! ”

Someone shouted.

"There really is!"

Hulala suddenly surrounded a lot of people, one after another surrounded Shi Xing's sack, Shi Xing shook his head, reluctantly stood up and said, "Hey, don't touch my things, that's not mine!" ”

"It's such a big piece, this is an emerald, it's worth the old nose's money!"

The group of people who saw Qian Xing's eyes were completely ignoring Shi Xing's shouting at the moment.
