Chapter 15: Follow Me into the House
Familiar sensations came like a tidal wave.
Just when he thought he was about to break through.
The aura in the body flowed to the meridians again, leaving the body as if fleeing.
Blew!
"Failed again."
It's been two years.
Ren Pingsheng once again realized what despair is.
"Could it be...... Am I not good by nature? ”
At this moment, Ren Pingsheng had doubts about his body.
Jiupin ...... For others, as long as there are enough resources, it can be broken, but for him, it seems like an insurmountable chasm.
Maybe he was born unsuitable for cultivation.
Besides, there was no way to explain why his cultivation talent was so poor.
"Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven, and let it be how you go after that."
Ren Pingsheng sighed in his heart, slowly got up, bent down to pick up the long sword on the ground, and walked into the courtyard to hone his martial arts skills as usual.
It's approaching dusk.
In the courtyard.
Ren Pingsheng waved the long sword in his hand, moving around, the sword light flashed, sometimes light as a swallow, sometimes as sudden as lightning.
It's April, and the begonia flowers are blooming, and the fragrance is overflowing.
A sword, dancing in the breeze, drove the branches to shake gently.
The petals flew in the air, fluttering like snowflakes, and fell on Ren Pingsheng's body.
I don't know how long it took.
Ren Pingsheng put down the long sword in his hand, sat on the ground, looked at the pink petals everywhere, and a poem suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Falling red is not a ruthless thing, turning into spring mud is more protective of flowers."
Not afraid of setbacks, unwilling to sink.
This is what a high school Chinese teacher said about the poet.
I didn't think about it at the time, but now I feel a little more touched when I read it.
Just eight words.
It's not easy to do it well.
I don't know why.
This moment.
Ren Pingsheng thought of his lady who had not yet passed the door - Princess Chang'an Liu Ruyan.
The higher you climb, the more scenery you see, and the more painful it is when you fall.
Compared with her, she was lucky, at least she didn't experience the despair of plummeting.
However, in the final analysis, the two have different paths, the same martial arts are blocked, and it is equally difficult to climb the peak.
"Freemasonry ......"
Ren Pingsheng laughed to himself and got up from the ground.
I won't practice the knife tonight.
He's going to drink......
In the blink of an eye, night fell, and the moon and stars were scarce.
Ren Pingsheng sat in the courtyard and raised a glass to drink alone.
It's rare to empty yourself.
Nothing to think about, nothing to do, just drink.
Dazhou is rich in rice wine, the degree is low, with the amount of wine in Ren Pingsheng, it is difficult to get drunk.
The second glass of wine was drunk in one gulp.
Ren Pingsheng picked up the wine jug and planned to pour another glass, but before the wine glass fell, he suddenly heard the movement of Suo Suo in the side room.
Turning his head, he could see by the moonlight that there was a thin figure in the room, hunched over, not knowing what he was doing.
"Ghosts?"
Ren Pingsheng was startled, grabbed the long sword that was placed aside, and was about to retreat slowly.
"Wow!"
At this moment, with a strange sound, the figure in the room disappeared with a whizz.
The voice...... Somewhat familiar.
Ren Pingsheng was slightly stunned, and after recalling for a while, he suddenly said, "Is that little black man?" ”
There are demons in this world.
Animals are cultivated into refinement and turn into human form, not to mention common, but it is not rare.
Of course.
The possibility of a rat cultivating to perfection with just one Waste Pill is extremely low!
…… But it's not for nothing.
"If it's as I guessed, doesn't it mean that my talent is not as good as that of a little black mouse?"
Ren Pingsheng felt the critical damage again.
After a moment of silence, he looked at the side room and said slowly, "Come out, I won't kill you." ”
“......”
There was not a single movement.
Can't understand people?
Still reluctant to come out?
Just when Ren Pingsheng was thinking about whether to call the guards.
Strange voices rang out again.
"Wow!"
A black mouse tiptoed to the door, eyes the size of mung beans showing deep fear, not daring to look directly at the human in front of him.
"You ......"
Ren Pingsheng wanted to ask it if it understood human language.
Before he could speak, he saw the rat and rat plopping on his knees, kowtowing vigorously, and making a "chirping" sound in his mouth, as if begging the human in front of him to spare his life.
“......”
At this moment, Ren Pingsheng suddenly understood what it meant to be cowardly as a mouse.
"That's it, if you don't have that waste pill, you don't have to worry about the transformation."
Ren Pingsheng looked at the rat and mouse who kept kowtowing, hoping to escape the catastrophe, sighed in his heart, picked up a piece of pastry on the table, and threw it over: "Leave Ren's Mansion after eating, and the past is not to blame." ”
The pastry landed in front of the rat, its mung bean-sized eyes showing longing, but it was afraid of Ren Pingsheng and did not dare to step forward.
After a while, I saw Ren Pingsheng turn around and ignore it anymore.
It was just then that it showed a look of joy, and its two little paws held the pastry, and devoured it.
In a few moments, a piece of pastry fell into the stomach.
Miraculously, after eating the pastry larger than its body, its lower abdomen did not change in the slightest.
"Wow!"
The rat stood in place, looked at the pastry on the table in the distance, pursed his lips, and subconsciously stretched out his little paws.
But when it saw the behemoth sitting next to it, its hungry mind quickly sobered up.
The four little paws gently ploughed the ground and ran away.
Rat Mouse knows exactly what he wants.
alive
Then go to the human house and eat all the time.
"What exactly do I want?"
Facing the bright moonlight, Ren Pingsheng rarely thought about it.
Picnic fishing in the suburbs, teaching the workshop to play chess and listen to music...... It's a good day, but I always feel like something is missing.
Of course, this is not the point, the point is that because of the existence of the emperor, he cannot spend his life so comfortably.
Now the north is calm and the years are quiet, because of the support of his father, the king of the north.
When one day, his father is gone, how will he hold up a piece of the sky in the north?
"Wow!"
The strange voice sounded again, pulling the cranky Ren Pingsheng back to reality.
When I turned my head to look, I saw the rat go and return.
The little claw points to the left, and the movement is rapid.
Ren Pingsheng looked in the direction and there was nothing abnormal.
"Why did you come back?"
Faced with the strange behavior of the rat, Ren Pingsheng questioned.
"Chirp chirp!"
In a hurried voice.
Ren Pingsheng suddenly felt a chill in his neck.
Meanwhile.
An unfamiliar voice rang in my ears.
"Don't move!"
It was a woman who spoke, and she didn't sound very old.
At this moment, Ren Pingsheng finally understood that the rat was reporting to him, and subconsciously looked at it, and saw that the rat had run away as if he had escaped.
With its guts, ventilating the signal is the limit of what it can do.
"I don't know who sent this woman, what her intentions are, and whether there is room for maneuver."
Ren Pingsheng's brain was running rapidly, thinking about how to get out, and before he could think of it, he heard a commotion outside.
Then I heard the woman behind me say:
"Help me get out, and I will be grateful in the future!"
Ren Pingsheng was stunned when he heard this.
Listening to the meaning of her words, she was chased and killed, and she happened to escape here?
The capital is an important place, and it is a heavily guarded inner city.
The knights of the rivers and lakes did not dare to make a mistake, and it was the people of the court who chased and killed her.
I just don't know what she has done, so that the officials can hunt down here.
"Harbouring fugitives is a felony, and it is best not to be involved, but in the current situation, there seems to be no other choice."
After thinking about it, Ren Pingsheng had already made a decision, and said in a deep voice: "Follow me into the house." ”
