"A Slip of Smoke" took Ji Yuan all the way to the west, and rushed to the Lion Camel Country non-stop.

The farther west you go, the colder it gets, and the ground clatters when you step on it.

Ji Yuan thought that his feet were slow, so he carried the knife and gun on his back, lifted the "slip of smoke" with one hand, walked like a fly on the loess road on the ice floe, and walked hundreds of miles in one breath.

Along the way, Ji Yuan carried hundreds of pounds on his body, but not only did he not feel tired, but it made him feel unscrupulous and ventive in his strength.

Heavy snow suddenly fell in the sky, the cold was biting, Ji Yuan looked at it, and the heavy lead clouds in the distance pressed down like mountains, turning into a line with the boundless wilderness.

Heaven and earth are lonely, where to go?

The wind and snow became more and more violent, which in turn stimulated Ji Yuan's wildness.

His blood was boiling, and he walked faster and faster, and finally used his hands and feet together, like a fierce tiger, roaring and roaring, galloping between heaven and earth!

I don't know how long he ran, but he suddenly stopped, and his eyes passed through the overlapping wind and snow, and landed in the distant ravine.

In the darkness, a few dim fires outlined the outline of a ruined village.

Ji Yuan took a spear from his back and shook off the "puff of smoke" he was holding on it: "Is this also a place where birdmen keep people and animals in captivity?" ”

"A slip of smoke" hung on the spear, and followed Ji Yuan all the way in the wind and snow, and he was still swinging at this time.

He opened his eyes with difficulty, his lips turned purple, and he said tremblingly: "No...... That's right! There are some such villages one after another! ”

Although Ji Yuan knew the cruelty in it, when he saw it with his own eyes, it was still beyond imagination.

The two sneaked into the village at night, trying to find out some useful information, but they saw that every house had set up incense altars and worshipped a statue with a skull bird's head day and night.

These villagers have more or less obvious flaws. Perhaps it was because of the physical deformity that made them more religious, and even if they were skinny and skinny, the incense and candles used for sacrifice still continued all night.

Someone fell to the ground, losing limbs: "Dapeng God King is merciful, bless me to no longer suffer from the loss of siblings in the next life......"

There are two black holes in someone's face: "Dapeng God King is merciful, I want to have eyes in my next life......"

Someone cried bitterly: "Dapeng God King is merciful, I want to be a woman......"

There are even people who are obviously dumb, but they still kneel in front of the idol, and their mouths say "ahhhhhh

Ji Yuan frowned, even if he knew in his heart that this was all a means for the birdman to fool mortals, he could think of the thousands of mortals like himself outside, and he couldn't help but be confused in his heart: "Yesterday's everything, is it because of today's suffering, is that so?" ”

Suddenly, a childish voice sounded in my ears: "Mother! What did I do wrong in my last life? You're going to punish me for being like this. ”

Ji Yuan followed his prestige and was a little boy with albinism.

"Although I have hands and feet, other children say that I am a ghost!" The little boy looked at his mother, his clear eyes full of sadness: "I'd rather be disabled than be bullied by them!" ”

Ji Yuan was stunned, even in a place like this, would there be discrimination?

The mother took the child into her arms and touched his head in distress: "The pain we suffered today is all the sins we did yesterday. Pan'er, as long as you worship sincerely, the Dapeng God King will be merciful, and the next life will ...... It's going to be fine in the next life! ”

The boy raised his head and looked stubborn: "But isn't that what happened in the previous life?" If I really want to repent, shouldn't I be asked to remember the events of my last life? Moreover, if I don't remember anything in my next life, then what's the use of what I do in this life? ”

Ji Yuan's body shook, and the boy's immature voice echoed in his mind, like thunder.

Suddenly, I saw that the short man next to him was also trembling.

When the mother heard the boy's words, she was furious and pushed him away: "Kneel! Who taught you to say such things! Confess to the Dapeng God King! ”

The boy raised his head and looked directly at the idol, stubborn as a calf: "I don't! ”

The mother, trembling with rage, struggled to get up from the futon, and limped into the house to find a rattan.

She lifted the rattan and looked at the boy's almost transparent skin, her hands trembling in mid-air, unable to wave them for a long time.

Looking at the Dapeng God King on the eye niche again, she finally burst into tears and slapped the boy on the back.

Blood marks appeared on the boy's extremely white and thin back, which was angry and terrifying. The boy gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Ji Yuan couldn't stand it anymore, stepped into the house, and grabbed the crying mother: "Enough!" No matter what he suffers in the next life, you will no longer be his mother by then! ”

The mother froze suddenly, as if she understood something, and threw herself on the boy and hugged him tightly.

The boy hugged his mother and finally burst into tears.

Ji Yuan looked at this scene, and his heart was full of sorrow, and he also realized.

"The past is not important, the future is not important, the present is important! If there is karma, then now! ”

People in the world are often entangled in the suffering of this life and superstitious about reincarnation. But have they ever thought that only this life belongs to "themselves"?

May the people of the world have no regrets in this life and do not have to pray for the next life.

The mother and son, who calmed down, realized the stranger in front of them.

"Big brother! Who are you? The boy had a detached temperament, looked at Ji Yuan's might, and asked curiously, "Why don't you have any disabilities?" ”

The boy's mother patted him on the head: "Fool! How can you ask people that! ”

Immediately, he whispered to the boy: "Have you forgotten your brother Huowang?" He's a good hand, but he's gone......"

The boy exclaimed "oh" and covered his crotch with his hand.

Ji Yuan had a black line in his head, but he couldn't attack, so he hurriedly changed the topic: "I'm from outside." ”

"Another village?"

"It's further afield."

"Are the people there also incomplete?"

"Yes and no."

"That's it!" The mother reluctantly interrupted the conversation between the boy and Ji Yuan: "This little brother is here here, is he passing by or doing something?" ”

Ji Yuan glanced at the statue of the skeletal bird's head, and wanted to say that he was going to kill the birdman, but after thinking about it, he felt that the mother and son were already too bitter in their lives, so why bother to destroy some things.

Anyway, they seem to have understood the principle of cherishing the present, and it is not a good thing to have some beautiful illusions about the next life.

He couldn't bear to disturb the warmth of the mother and son, and when he turned to leave, he hesitated for a moment and then said, "I'm just passing by!" ”

Not long after Ji Yuan left, there was a fire outside the door, and a noisy voice appeared.

"Pan'er Mom! Let's pick up the plate and hit the road, hurry up and get out, don't miss the auspicious time of the Dapeng God King! ”

A group of people pushed open the door and saw Nie Pan's mother and son hugging each other, and the tears on their faces had not yet dried.

The leader was a bearded camel with a white beard, a face full of wrinkles, and a grim smile: "Pan'er Mom, the time has come!" ”

Nie Pan was so anxious that he shouted: "Mother! I don't want to go! After the children went, none of them returned. But I don't want to be separated from my mother! ”

Although Nie Pan's mother still had beautiful fantasies about the afterlife in her heart, she fantasized that her son would be able to live a good life in the next life when he came to the God King.

But she immediately hesitated again, and her son was always the meat that fell from her. How can a mother not pity her child, if she lets him go today, she will never see him again in this life.

She mustered up her courage: "Village chief! According to the generation, you are also Pan'er's grandfather, can you ...... Can you let go of the plate! ”

The camel's eyes widened, and with a slap, Nie Pan's mother's face immediately became red and swollen.

"Great rebellion! Being able to worship the God King is a blessing that your family has cultivated for eight lifetimes! ”

He waved his hand, and four or five strong men with crooked eyes and slanted mouths rushed out from behind, and they were about to come up and rob people.

The woman held her son in her arms and refused to let go of the men who punched and kicked her.

Nie Pan was in his mother's arms, his eyes were red in a hurry, his teeth were dancing, like an angry little leopard: "Get out!" Don't hit my mother! ”

But how powerful a woman can be, even if she is a mother, this identity will only deepen her pain.

She was beaten all over her body, and Nie Pan was also carried in her hands like a chick.

But she still didn't give up, pounced on it, and bit it on the hand of one of them.

The man was in pain and punched her hard in the temple: "Vixen! I'll kill you! ”

Blood flowed out of the woman's seven orifices, and her eyes were blood-red, and she still refused to close her eyes, because she knew that this closure would be forever!

Nie Pan watched his mother lie on the ground with her eyes open, and felt that the whole world had collapsed.

He cried out to his mother in tears, and the woman smiled and couldn't make a sound, as if she was responding to him.

On the hillside in the distance, Ji Yuan suddenly stopped.

It was the dwarf who grabbed him: "That child will be taken away from that mother!" ”

Ji Yuan was stunned, and scolded in his heart why didn't he say it earlier, but he was asking, "What does this have to do with you?" ”

"Save them, I'll take you to King Peng!"

Ji Yuan saw two lines of tears flowing down the ugly face of the short man.
