Chapter 15 The Past of the Demon Lord There are nine sufferings in the world
Eighty years ago, a baby boy fell to the ground.
"Wait, you're eighty?" Qin Anyi asked Shi Xuanzhi.
"yes, I'm eighty, and my cheap dad is ninety-six." Shi Xuanzhi said. Martial arts cultivators, although they will grow older, their life expectancy will also increase, and the aging speed will also slow down, not to mention the elixir of rejuvenation exercises.
"And how old was your mother when she gave birth to you?" Qin Anyi asked Shi Xuanzhi in shock.
"My mother would have been ninety-three years old if she lived to this day." Shi Xuanzhi touched his chin and counted. How many years should Shi Xuanzhi's father be sentenced to prison?
Oh, he doesn't have to be sentenced, because he's underage.
"Tsk, you go on." Qin An recalled.
"Then my mother was spurned by the whole village because she didn't have a husband's family, so she took me and left her mother's house." Shi Xuanzhi said with a look of remembrance,
"And in order to keep me from living in the shadow of not having a father, my mother married a fool, although the fool is stupid, but the fool is very good to me, but I dislike him for being stupid, so I have not called him father, and later found out that he really shouldn't be called father."
"Your mother, she really found a good pick-up man." Qin An recalled.
"Hey, yes, my mother also ridiculed herself for being a pick-up man, are you from the same village as my mother, what does it mean to be a pick-up man?" Shi Xuanzhi asked Qin Anyi.
"Okay, another fellow." Qin Anyi began to think about whether there are many fellow villagers in this world,
"You go on."
"My mother, although she doesn't have much strength, but people are very diligent, she relies on buying tofu to feed our family, what about a fool, although people are stupid, but he is very good at playing chess, he often gambles with people, and he often buys some trinkets for my mother with the money from gambling, and often buys me sugar gourds to eat, although the fool is stupid, but the fool is particularly handsome when he plays chess, and it doesn't look like a stupid." Shi Xuanzhi reminisced and reminisced about the past and said.
Qin Anyi seemed to be able to think of that kind of life, although it was hard, but it was very happy. The young woman returned home to teach Shi Xuanzhi to read and write, and the fool who was very good at chess would bring a sugar gourd to Shi Xuanzhi to eat.
He would also buy ornaments for the woman, and perhaps praise his wife for her beauty. However, Qin Anyi could imagine what would happen later.
"And so, when I was eight years old, a group of men dressed in black came to our house." When Shi Xuanzhi said this, the killing intent and hatred in his eyes were intertwined.
"They are muttering that they will fulfill the queen's orders, and they will not be left alive." Shi Xuanzhi's hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
"My mother was pierced in the chest with a sword in order to protect me." Shi Xuanzhi paused.
"And the fool held me and ran all the way back, and he ran far away and took me to the river, and the fool kept laughing and laughing and told me that Xuan'er should not be afraid, Xuan'er should not be afraid." Shi Xuanzhi seemed to be crying.
That fool, will only say
"Xuan'er, don't be afraid"...
"Then Dad fell to the ground, and I saw Daddy's back, his legs were full of hidden weapons, but just like that, the fool still struggled to get up and run with me, but how could he run?" Shi Xuanzhi stopped talking.
The wounded fool holding Shi Xuanzhi was already the end of the crossbow itself, how far could he run with Shi Xuanzhi?
"Dad, he said that the biggest regret in his life is that he didn't hear me call him Dad." Maybe at that time, Shi Xuanzhi had already called his father.
"I kept shouting, 'Daddy, get up.'" But by the time I called him daddy, he didn't snort anymore. Shi Xuanzhi pretended to be bland and said.
“… And what about later? Qin Anyi asked, and he patted Shi Xuanzhi on the shoulder to show comfort.
"Then I met my master by the river, and the killers teased my father with the mentality of catching cats and rats, and when they arrived, my master floated down the river." Shi Xuanzhi said.
"Hmm." Qin Anyi nodded,
"And then your master killed them?"
"My master came down and saw me, and then he came up from the river and threw me a sword." Shi Xuanzhi shook his head now, and then said,
"After the master saw me holding the sword, he made poses for me to learn, and I killed those people by learning those postures." Shi Xuanzhi's martial arts talent was revealed at that time.
Perhaps Shi Xuanzhi didn't want to find out that he had a talent in martial arts. That way he can live with her beautiful mother and stupid father forever.
It's unremarkable, but it's happy.
"My master is a mute, but also a demon man, but he is different from other demon people, he will not kill people at will, nor will he torture others, he will also buy me sugar gourds, see someone poor will also give people silver, meet children will also give them sugar, he will also take me to drink and watch the moon, will also cook for me to eat, although we don't speak, he is very much like a fool, he can't say words of concern, but he pays silently, he is like a good person than many people, but in my opinion the best person except my father and mother, In the end, he died. Shi Xuanzhi tried his best to restrain his sadness and said.
"I was twenty-three years old that year, and Master died at the hands of the Heavenly Demon Gate, and they took me to the Heavenly Demon Gate, and no one has been so kind to me since then." Shi Xuanzhi said.
"Since then, I have become a demon lord, and after that, I have become a demon lord." Shi Xuanzhi said lightly.
"Before I became the Demon Lord, I went to the palace and saw the woman called the queen, she was indeed beautiful, but she was an ugly snake old woman, and I also knew why she wanted to kill her, because most of the daughters born to my father were daughters, and only that queen had a son, and she wanted to kill me to ensure that her son could inherit the throne." Shi Xuanzhi said lightly.
"Then I killed her and the prince." Speaking of this, Shi Xuanzhi laughed.
"Damn it!" Qin Anyi nodded.
"Then my father began to want me, royal masters, sect masters, folk masters, many, many masters want to kill me." Shi Xuanzhi's tone was very flat, as if he had only killed pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep.
For Shi Xuanzhi, killing people is just as plain as eating and drinking. It's like how Shi Xuanzhi could remember how many steamed buns he ate, how could he remember how many people he killed?
"In this way, I became the world-famous demon lord, and then I reached the first in the world, drew with Taixuanzi, and became the first in the world, and then, I began to cultivate you." Shi Xuanzhi looked at Qin Anyi and said.
"Although I buried a lot of corpses, I didn't bury the bodies of my father and my mother." Shi Xuanzhi said, his eyes were very calm and sober.
Yes, although he obeyed his mother's words and buried those he killed, he did not bury his father.
Even on the Qingming Festival, he couldn't find his father's grave and go to pay respects.
"It's gone, it's all gone." Shi Xuanzhi wiped his tears and said flatly.
"Well, it's all gone." Qin Anyi also nodded. Many times, things that cannot be remembered can only be let pass, because there is no power to change, so they can only let it pass.
"I fell in love with a woman." Shi Xuanzhi said coldly.
"Well, then you can't like men." Qin Anyi teased,
"Where's she? Take me to see it. ”
"Okay." As Shi Xuanzhi spoke, he grabbed Qin Anyi's collar. The martial domain unfolded, and in an instant, Qin Anyi and Shi Xuanzhi came to a small town on the border of the Gobi Desert.
Although it is weathered here, there is a tofu shop. The proprietress of the tofu shop is very young, and she is accompanied by a little girl eating lollipops.
Shi Xuanzhi didn't step forward, but just hid in the dark and observed secretly.
"Why don't you go up?" Qin Anyi asked Shi Xuanzhi.
"What are you doing up there? Buy tofu? Shi Xuanzhi asked Qin Anyi.
"Buy it, how can you talk to her if you don't buy tofu." Qin Anyi said angrily to Shi Xuanzhi.
"Mother, there are two people watching us over there." The little girl eating the sugar gourd pulled the corner of the young woman's clothes and pointed at Shi Xuanzhi and Qin Anyi and said.
"Qing Xuan, they're just looking at us, don't make such a fuss." The woman said softly to her daughter, and then smiled at Shi Xuanzhi and Qin Anyi.
Visible to the naked eye, Shi Xuanzhi's face was red, all the way to the root of his ears.
"You're so innocent?" Qin Anyi smiled at Shi Xuanzhi.
"What qualifications do you have to say about me, don't you have a girl you like?" Shi Xuanzhi sneered at Qin Anyi angrily.
"Actually, I have." Qin Anyi smiled bitterly,
"It's just that I don't know if I'll ever see her again."
"If you like it, go and confess your heart to her." Shi Xuanzhi said angrily.
"She and I are no longer from the same world, she is over there, I'm on this end." Qin Anyi said vaguely.
The person he liked was in the world before he crossed over, and he liked her, it was his previous life before he lost his roots, and this body had roots.
“… Condolences change. Shi Xuanzhi understood the wrong meaning, he thought that the girl had died.
"She's not dead, forget it, it's no different from being dead." Qin Anyi said with a sigh. She didn't die, she didn't like him, so Qin Anyi treated her as dead, because only in this way could Qin Anyi break her mind.
There are eight sufferings in the world, birth, old age, sickness and death, resentment and hatred, unbelievable, love and separation, and five yin are blazing. In fact, Qin An recalled that there is still a ninth suffering in this world.
The ninth suffering is that you can't let go. Thinking of this, Qin An remembered the martial arts method and kicked Shi Xuanzhi out.
"What are you kicking me for!" Caught off guard, Shi Xuanzhi was kicked in front of the tofu shop by Qin Anyi.
"Excuse me, what do you need?" The young woman asked Shi Xuanzhi.
"I... I want to eat your tofu. Shi Xuanzhi said hesitantly.
