Chapter 14: Chongsheng's Weakness
"I don't know, but the most incredible person everyone talks about these days is Mr. Tianhuo, and these wines are not ordinary things, so I made a bold guess. Shopkeeper Li smiled, "I used to drink this wine, it was a monkey brew that I accidentally drank in the depths of the jungle when I was young, this is a rare thing, bad luck, even if you are strong, you may not be able to get it." It's really a hero out of a teenager, and the old man has a request. ”
"What request?" the other party lowered his posture so much, Chongsheng naturally reached out and didn't hit the smiling person.
"Can you give this pot of monkey brew to the old man?" said Shopkeeper Li expectantly, his hands couldn't help but tremble a little.
"Okay, take it. "It's just such a small thing, I thought it was a big deal. Chongsheng really doesn't care about this bit of wine, but he can't give it to Shopkeeper Li for nothing. "I've heard Ling'er say a lot about this town, but I haven't heard much about her, you just said that he is the righteous daughter of the mayor, I want to know more about her, let's talk about it. ”
"Okay," the matter is very simple, and Shopkeeper Li doesn't plan to procrastinate, "Cheng Ling's father's name is Cheng Hao, and he is the right-hand man of the old town mayor before we Dianluo Town received the title of Tie Town. More than ten years ago, the Undead Sunset Empire launched an attack on the northern part of our Luoluo Kingdom, and our Dianluo Town is one of the key targets, because our town is not only rich and populous, but also the fortifications are also very strong, they gathered 30,000 puppets to launch an attack on our town, even if all of us are soldiers, we have not been able to withstand the crazy attacks of these puppets, and the city has been destroyed. Led by the mayor, we engage in street fighting, but the puppets have very keen senses, and the places where we are hiding will soon be discovered. Cheng Hao led more than a dozen people to manipulate the town's organs, and stubbornly resisted Wuxi. Buying time for us to hide deeper, and at this time in the forest, I don't know what happened, all the beasts were dispatched, and half of our entire town was flattened, and those puppets couldn't block the impact of the beasts, and all of them died in the mouths of the beasts, and Cheng Hao and a dozen of them were not spared. After the battle. The town was preserved, but Cheng Ling became an orphan without a father or mother, and the mayor naturally would not treat his brother's children badly. Cheng Hao's children of more than a dozen of them were recognized by the mayor as righteous sons and daughters. ”
"I didn't expect her to have such a miserable background. Hearing this, Chongsheng felt more sympathy for Cheng Ling.
These things are a wound in Ling'er's heart, and it's best not to mention it to her again. Shopkeeper Li reminded him and began to continue. "Ling'er grew up in a private school since she was a child, and she is recognized as a lady and has always been very well-behaved. But no one bullied her, because the mayor's daughter, Ying Yao, has always protected her like a calf......"
"Ying Yao is the daughter of the mayor!" Chongsheng understood how the weapon came from. I made a big fuss about my feelings.
"That's right. Mayor didn't tell you?"
"No," Chongsheng shook his head. "Go on. ”
"Ling'er is very smart in addition to being well-behaved, she knows the most about the development of Luo Xuanguo in the town, and she is also one of the ten people in the town who are most familiar with these institutions. ”
"I didn't expect her to be so powerful. Chongsheng touched Cheng Ling's head with pity, and at the same time was also curious about the remaining nine people, "Who are the other nine people?"
"Old mayor, Miss Ying Yao, Young Master Ying Le. Mr. Wu Ting, the master of Lu Feng Pavilion. Nakai, the head of Jiakang Village, the old stonemason Lu Yu, and the old carpenter Li Xiaoguang. ”
"Sounds so old, is Ling'er the youngest?" Listening to the others either have high positions or add old words in front, except for Ying Yao, none of Ying Le and Cheng Ling are young, Chongsheng asked casually.
"No, the youngest is Win Le Gongzi," replied the shopkeeper Li. "Ling'er is seventeen years old, and Yingle Gongzi is only fourteen years old. ”
"Where does Ling'er live?" Chongsheng threw out another question, he slept for more than ten hours after drinking for the first time, and Cheng Ling would definitely wake up longer. Chongsheng glanced at Shopkeeper Li again, "Shopkeeper Li seems to be hidden deeply." ”
"I don't know what Mr. Tianhuo means by that?"
"I drank this wine for the first time and slept for more than ten hours, and Mr. Li also drank these wines without any problems, isn't Mr. Li deeply hidden?"
"Mr. Tianhuo seems to have some misunderstanding, the reason why Mr. Tianhuo is in a coma because he has not drunk alcohol before, so his resistance is not so strong, and he is old and good at drinking, if he is really unconscious because of this glass of wine, then all these years will not be in vain. Shopkeeper Li smiled, and then said to Chongsheng thoughtfully. "As for Miss Cheng Ling's residence, Mr. Chongsheng is better not to go over, Miss Cheng Ling is familiar with all the defense organs in the town, and has also set up a lot of traps outside her house, if you rush in, Mr. Tianhuo's skills may not be life-threatening, but it is also likely to be as unconscious as the first time you drink. ”
"Uh, that's terrifying. Chongsheng also felt a little uncertain when he heard this, he was not afraid of the real Longtan Tiger's Den, but if he couldn't control his energy and destroyed her home, it would be a big deal. "Then let's take her somewhere else. It's not good to lie here and catch a cold. Chongsheng picked up Cheng Ling's soft body and left the inn.
"Is Mr. Tianhuo interested in Miss Cheng Ling?" Looking at their distant figures, Shopkeeper Li guessed, and suddenly Shopkeeper Li remembered a very strict question, that is, the problem that he was least worried about at the beginning actually happened, and they didn't pay! "Hey......" The person has already gone away, even this little wine is worth the money, so don't worry about it. "Hey, what's the smell? It's broken, and the fire is still burning. The shopkeeper Li immediately saw green smoke coming out of the back of the kitchen, and he just lit the fire and came out, and no one looked at the fire and didn't burn the kitchen. "It's on fire, put out the fire!" Shopkeeper Li didn't go to the kitchen to look at it again, he was not young, and good spirits did not mean that his legs and feet were sharp, so he wisely left the house and asked the neighbors for help.
Chongsheng didn't hear Shopkeeper Li's voice, and his speed of action was not as fast as his voice, but Shopkeeper Li's voice didn't track him. The warm fragrant nephrite jade in his arms made Chongsheng feel a little dry, and Chongsheng didn't know what was wrong with him, but he just told him to leave Cheng Ling as much as he could. When Chongsheng put Cheng Ling on the bed, he found that the girl's hands were clasped together and tightly wrapped around her neck. Chongsheng broke her fingers hard, but the little girl was not discouraged, and kept holding her fingers and not letting go. At this time, Cheng Ling was immersed in a sweet dream, which was before Cheng Hao died. They didn't know that a brutal battle was coming soon, the family laughed and laughed, and Cheng Ling and her brother played and frolicked in the yard. The laughter of her parents lingered in her ears, and the reason why Cheng Ling refused to let go of Chongsheng was that her sweet dream turned into a nightmare. His mother and brother died under the attack of the puppet army, and the young Cheng Ling cried bitterly and did not let his father leave him, but his father broke Cheng Ling's hands again and again, he still had a home to protect, and he had to keep his neighbors and relatives behind. In the end, Cheng Hao ruthlessly threw Cheng Ling to the neighbors and left alone.
"Don't, Daddy, don't go! Don't leave me. Cheng Ling's tears flowed out unconsciously, and when she saw the beauty crying, Chongsheng's heart softened, "Good, I won't go." Chongsheng swallowed his saliva and told the lie with difficulty. lovingly stroked Cheng Ling's head. Cheng Ling smiled, smiled sweetly, and then easily kissed herself. Chongsheng was stunned, but fortunately, Cheng Ling let go of his fragrant lips, let go of the hands that were only holding Chongsheng's neck, Chongsheng endured the nameless evil fire that came out of his abdomen, covered Cheng Ling's Miaoman's body with a quilt, and then rushed out of the inn without looking back, he really needed to calm down now.
A fiery red figure rushed into the cold river in the southwest of Dianluo Town, it was Chongsheng who incarnated as the phoenix body, Chongsheng wanted to calm himself down, so he didn't care how long the river was and how cold the water was. The cold liquid soaked his head, and Chongsheng felt that his breathing was much calmer. But the creatures around him were not as comfortable as Chongsheng, and the originally cold and calm water was suddenly hot and churning up and down. Although the temperature of the whole river was not high, the creatures around it were almost cooked. Chongsheng finally calmed down, what's wrong with me today, I just got closer to Cheng Ling, how could I just want to hold Cheng Ling in my arms, what is it like? Recalling the feeling of holding Cheng Ling in his arms, Chongsheng felt that his blood was boiling again. And under the influence of his own thoughts, the surrounding water boiled again.
"Ahh Because his heart couldn't bear it, as for the reason? The dream in which he fainted from pain told him the answer, and in the dream he returned to the place where he had been reborn from the fire. People often use rebirth to describe a person as stronger, but for the real phoenix, they can have better talent and physique in this life with the accumulation of their previous life after being reborn from the fire, but the premise is that the ashes after the fire must be absorbed, and they were chased by a few powerful guys just after they made a move, and later although there was a master to help them escape a difficulty, but those ashes of rebirth were not obtained in the end, although Chongsheng practiced Fan Xiao's improved Divine Ape Fire Method, he was like a fish in water, and it was possible to cultivate to a more powerful point, but the weakness of congenital deficiency has not been changed until now。
"Hey," Chongsheng let out a long breath, let's let the wind slowly calm himself down. (To be continued......)
