Chapter 37: The Prologue to the Thousand-Year Curse
Tao Yao raised her sleeves, tears instantly rushed out of her eyes, she grabbed the sleeve of Master Cen's coat, and cried helplessly and pitifully: "Master, the Arowana was caught by you, you only said that it was a good fish, but you didn't say that it was a fish raised by the senior brother."
As for the fact that I eat fish, it's all because you think the Arowana is unpalatable, but you don't want to throw it away, so you have to force me to eat it.
Master, if I knew that the Arowana was my brother's treasure, I would have let you cook me, and I would not have let you cook my brother's treasure. ”
"......" Master Cen's face also darkened, and the angry master asked the senior brother very arrogantly, "Danqiu, yes, I caught the Arowana, how can I drop it?" Could it be that you are going to cook me and avenge your fish? ”
The elder brother, whose face was black and red, began to turn white again. He didn't dare to do anything with the master, he could only stare at Tao Yao viciously, from his resentful eyes, it was not difficult for her to judge that after today, the senior brother would definitely make her look good.
But is she scared because of this?
How can it be?
"No, no, no." Tao Yao hurriedly pulled the sleeve of the master's coat again, "Master, you can't wronged the senior brother, the senior brother said, let alone three Arowana, even if the master wants to eat him, he can also cut off a piece of meat for the master." The elder brother's respect for his master is like a surging river, stretching endlessly. ”
As soon as these words came out, whether it was the black-faced Master Cen or the white-faced senior brother, their complexions warmed up a lot.
Although she is the least experienced in Kunlun Mountain, the cliff is the most eye-catching.
This huge Kunlun Mountain, the first in terms of cultivation, is naturally the immortal on the scene, but everyone worships the immortals, but they are not afraid of the immortals.
It is Master Cen, who cultivates to the unknown, who is the real ruthless character who is awe-inspiring, which can be glimpsed from the attitude of the four senior brothers towards Master Cen in the previous ring match.
It's a pity that the former head of the Li family, who was busy showing off his martial arts, offended the three mountains of Kunlun, Shangxian, Master Cen, and Senior Brother at once on such a good day today.
Tao Yao secretly sneered at Li Shaoheng, this guy was half at a loss, and he didn't know what a big mistake he had made.
Alas...... is such a stupid thing to the extreme, it turned out to be the former head of the Li family, so what jaw-dropping idiots did the Li family in Yumen raise?
"Master, my sincerity to my master, as Senior Sister Tao said, is definitely deeper than the sea and higher than the mountains." After that, Senior Brother looked at Li Shaoheng sideways, and his face turned gloomy, "Senior Brother Li thinks that he shouldn't go to Chongquan to catch fish?" ”
"Not bad."
Li Shaoheng replied dryly and coldly, which made Senior Brother laugh angrily: "Senior Brother Li is right, according to the rules of Kunlun, I should not punish you to go to Chongquan to catch fish, but should punish you to clean the Tu Xuan Palace for eight hundred years." ”
Tao Yao almost burst into laughter.
If it is really punished like this, it will be very happy.
After all, Li Shaoheng relied on the identity of the Li family and was rampant and domineering in Kunlun for many years, if he was asked to sweep the land for eight hundred years, from now on, how could he continue to show off his might, and what should the entire Li family do as the head of the six families?
At this point, the stupid Li Shaoheng finally saw that the senior brother was angry, and he hurriedly gave up his hand: "Senior brother, I didn't mean that, I ...... I can go to Chongquan. ”
"Good." Senior Brother bowed, "Senior Brother Li, as your Senior Brother, I have the obligation to remind you that Chongquan is dangerous, and Senior Brother Li needs to be more careful when he goes." ”
Li Shaoheng smiled and was about to say thank you, but he heard the senior brother add: "Don't rush to thank you, I haven't finished my words." Senior Brother Li was punished for going to Chongquan, although Chongquan was dangerous, but Senior Brother Li had to go alone. If you really can't catch the Arowana, Senior Brother Li can also go back to Kunlun to clean the Tu Yu Palace. ”
“……”
Hahahaha, laughed at her.
Tao Yao gritted her teeth and told herself not to laugh.
This Li Shaoheng is really a talent, and it is not known whether he will go to Chongquan or not, but this guy rushed to the front of the person and forced the senior brother to settle the matter.
If that's all it is, it's just that, but he was not satisfied, and forced the senior brother to offend Master Cen, so he could find someone to help with the punishment of catching fish, but the senior brother was instantly upgraded in difficulty, and he was allowed to go alone.
If this guy has some ability, it's not a problem, but if he has average ability, then he will have to suffer a lot of sins.
"Senior brother, I ......" Li Shaoheng wanted to speak and stopped.
Senior Brother hooked his lips and sneered at Li Shaoheng: "What, Senior Brother Li thinks that he can't go to Chongquan alone?" If so, Senior Brother Li can speak bluntly. ”
"......" Li Shaoheng was discouraged, and he could not hide his resentment and left.
Looking at the wind and gloom, as if the lonely back that would never return, Tao Yao felt that the nine points and nine resentments in his heart were three or five points lighter.
It's only three or five points.
After all, Li Shaoheng is the former head of the Li family, and he has a different meaning to Kunlun, and the senior brother at this moment may seem ruthless to him because he is angry for a while.
It's too angry, as the senior brother in charge of Kunlun, he will do what he should do, so Li Shaoheng will not die.
When Li Shaoheng walked away and couldn't see anyone, the senior brother went to talk to the master with a smile and begged the master for forgiveness.
However, the master, who was generous just now, staggered away in an instant, and replied coldly: "I'm just a little teacher, and I really don't deserve the great gift of Kunlun." I don't care if Li Shaoheng can catch the fish or not, but I will definitely compensate you for three Arowana! “
“…… Master, that's not what I meant. ”
"Hmph."
The senior brother wanted to cry without tears, and wanted to ask the immortal to help him speak, but what kind of character and status was the immortal, how could he help him talk to the master?
So, the senior brother turned his attention to Tao Yao for help.
"Huh?"
The senior brother said pitifully: "Senior Sister Tao, they are all the same family, are you embarrassed to see the senior brother in trouble?" ”
Heh, what's embarrassing about her?
Looking at the senior brother who didn't know how to be a good senior brother, and then looking at the arrogant and unquenchable Master Cen, Tao Yao knew that this good show was more or less a reason why the master couldn't get off the stage.
Anyway, he is the master of Kunlun, how can he let a little disciple surnamed Li know that he stole the fish of the senior brother in order to eat?
"Senior brother wants Master Cen to dissipate his anger?"
"Nonsense."
...... "Kunlun immortals don't eat fireworks in the world, and they don't even know how to ask for people, it's just that she is generous and doesn't care." Senior brother, as long as you eat the Arowana in your hand, Master Cen will definitely be angry. ”
"—" The elder brother was stunned, "What? ”
"Senior brother, in the master's opinion, the reason why you hold on to the Arowana is because the Arowana is not a dish for you, but a treasure.
If you are willing to eat fish, you are telling the master that you have raised Arowana for 800 years, just to eat it in your stomach. ”
“……”
Let you help Li Shaoheng, hum!
The senior brother looked at the immortal with a bad face, then at the unscrupulous Master Cen, and then at the Tao Yao who was hanging high and had nothing to do with himself, and finally ate the Arowana with tears.
After eating, he forced himself to be happy again, and said to Master Cen: "Master, the arowana is really the most suitable to be grilled and eaten, and when Senior Brother Li comes back from catching fish, I will also invite Master to eat fish." ”
Tao Yao lowered her eyes and pressed the burst of laughter that she couldn't hold.
Master Cen's face warmed up slightly: "Okay, I know you are reluctant, I won't eat it in the future." ”
The senior brother bowed his hand and hurriedly thanked Ling: "Thank you, Master." ”
The matter is over, and it stands to reason that everyone should be gone, but the strange thing is that the immortals, the master, and the senior brother are all standing under the towering ancient trees, with solemn expressions.
After a long time, Master Cen asked, "Danqiu, what are you doing?" ”
"Dare to ask Master, do you remember what the Demon King said a thousand years ago before his death?"
Master Cen hooked his lips, and his eyes silently brushed over Shangxian: "How can you forget?" For any cultivator who had witnessed the fall of the Demon King, that day would never be forgotten. ”
"Hmm." The elder brother bowed his head.
Demon King?
She seems to have heard the Phoenix Girl mention that thousands of years ago, when the Demon King was still alive, he was a truly beautiful woman in the Three Realms and Six Clans, and even the immortals could not be defeated.
At that time, she just listened to it, and it was just a boastful statement from the lonely demon. Now listening to what Master Cen said, I realize that this is not entirely the case.
Senior Brother's eyes were gloomy, and his worried gaze fell on the corpse of a little demon on a hillside: "Master, recently, dying demon beasts have often appeared in Kunlun Mountain, and the frequency of their appearance has become more and more dense, and the number of dead demon beasts has also increased. I wondered, could this have something to do with the millennium? ”
The senior brother asked the master, but his eyes fell directly on the immortal.
It's a pity that his eyes are hot, but the immortal turns into a piece of wood.
The helpless senior brother could only say bluntly: "Shangxian, you haven't gone down the mountain for a thousand years, but recently you suddenly went down the mountain, is it because the heaven and the earth will welcome variables?" ”
Shangxian shook his head and did not speak.
Master Cen stroked his beard and said happily: "Danqiu, it's just a few little demon beasts, and I can't make you a Kunlun in charge and worried." ”
"Master, why are they just a few little demon beasts? Over the years, how could Kunlun Wonderland have called so many little demon beasts in? ”
The master raised his eyebrows: "They came in, but they all died as soon as they came in, didn't they?" Do you think that the monsters have spirits after death and can seek revenge on us? ”
"I ...... That was not what I meant. "Senior Brother Nuonuo," I just think that this kind of mutation is not a good thing, and the demon king said before he died that the demon clan will be avenged for a thousand years. ”
"Report your head!" Master Cen was furious, "Danqiu, aren't you old and confused? The demon king is about to die, and he is full of unwillingness, so what's so strange about saying a few cruel words? You said that the demon clan wants revenge, then you tell me, how can the demon clan take revenge? The current demon clan, is there a big demon that can fight? ”
“……”
"Alright." Master Cen flicked his sleeves, "Shangxian has just come back, and the dust on his body has not been washed yet, but he wants to listen to you here to say something that he has or not, and it is boring." If you're really fine, help collect the corpses of the little monsters and bury them properly. ”
"Huh?" The senior brother was dumbfounded, "Master, I sincerely apologize to you for the matter of the Arowana, and I want you to feel that if you don't lose your anger, you can punish me at will, but the matter of the little demon's body is ......."
"Grievance?"
The senior brother bowed his head pitifully: "They are demons, let them burn it, that is." ”
"You-" Master Cen glared angrily and wanted to say something, but saw Shangxian raise his sleeves and put the remains of a demon beast into his sleeve, "Master, leave this matter to me." ”
Seeing this, the senior brother looked anxious: "Shangxian, how can such a trivial matter work you, or call me to do it." ”
"Sending a demon is like giving it away, if you are not sincere, it is better not to send it."
“……”
The senior brother was stunned, probably he didn't expect that the immortal, who had always been cold and silent, would give him such a sentence that was nothing on the surface, but in fact it was secretly sarcastic.
The immortals have come out of the way.
Tao Yao walked up to chase after people, and heard the senior brother behind him praise the immortal compassion to Master Cen vigorously, even for the demon of all evils, he was also willing to give three points of mercy.
However, Master Cen didn't think so, and only replied with two specious "ums".
Tao Yao felt that the behavior of the immortals didn't seem to have anything to do with compassion, but she couldn't say what it had to do with it. She just felt that the back of the immortal was heartbreaking.
Whose heart is broken?
Tao Yao refused to answer.
