Chapter 102: Kill, Save
The moment I saw her clearly, I subconsciously took a step back.
It wasn't until she slowly walked in front of me and looked up at me that the nervousness in my heart slowly subsided.
"Big brother."
"Can you take me home?"
I was silent for a moment before I nodded.
"Okay."
She reached out and took my hand, and I didn't feel any touch, just a hint of coldness.
She is none other than Xu Er's daughter, the child who is still restless after death.
I took her hand and went back to the still burning house, and she looked at the room, but she didn't have any emotional fluctuations, just looked up at me.
"Big brother."
"I'm home."
"I want to go to my mom and dad."
As soon as she finished speaking, before I could react, she was already walking towards the firelight.
She was only a soul, but when she stepped into the fire, her body began to become illusory, and she disappeared from my sight for a moment, as if it had never appeared.
And the fire was still burning.
Watching this scene, I was completely stunned, and it took me a while before I felt a little sour in the corners of my eyes, and I admit that this was the first time I felt the urge to cry.
I seem to understand a little bit of what Lieberg Win taught me.
Whether it's the first lesson, or the second lesson.
Actually, it's just two words.
Mercy.
It can also be said that there is only one word.
Guard.
I don't have to admit that I'm a village keeper.
It is also possible to reject this identity in your heart.
But I can't help but care about the people who have helped me and care about me.
I can be indifferent to the world, but I also need to be discerning between good and evil, and have compassion in my heart.
If all I'm thinking about is myself, what's the difference between me and the walking dead?
It's like the city god.
I hated everything he did.
How could I be like him?
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt that the previous depression dissipated at once, and after bowing to Xu Er's house, I turned around and left here.
At the same time, footsteps were heard.
It was the villagers of Shimoo Village who came.
Even if because of Xu Er's daughter's matter, the villagers of Xiawei Village, Duo Xu Er's family, had a lot of opinions, but at this moment, they all came.
Isn't that compassion?
It was already early in the morning when I returned to the ghost building.
I thought Li Bowen should not be here, but when I walked into the ghost building, I saw him sitting upright in a chair in the dark, as if waiting for something.
Seeing that I was back, he said lightly: "Have you figured it out?" ”
I nodded and knelt down towards him.
This time I didn't have any other thoughts in my mind, but simply thought that I owed him this kneeling.
Because before, even if I recognized him as a master, I just felt that he had taught me something, and it was not a shame for me to call him Master.
I knocked my head heavily and shouted from the bottom of my heart, "Master! ”
However, Li Bowen didn't have any emotional changes because of my voice, just looked at me calmly and said, "What do you understand?" ”
I thought for a moment and said, "Compassion." ”
"I shouldn't be so selfish."
Li Bowen stared at me.
"Then the teacher asked you, how do you feel about killing the city god for the teacher?"
I was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied, "He should be killed." ”
"Since you also think that he deserves to be killed, then where do you have mercy?" Li Bowen looked at me with a sneer.
I fell silent.
Li Bowen stood up and walked over to me.
"Compassion? That's just a ridiculous excuse for a bunch of sanctimonious people to find for themselves. ”
I was stunned again.
Li Bowen suddenly pointed at me with a hatred of iron and steel, and scolded: "There are only eight words for the teacher to teach you!" ”
"Kill what should be killed, save what should be saved!"
"Got it?"
After speaking, Li Bowen angrily threw up his sleeves and went to the second floor.
"Kneel there and reflect."
"When did you get it?"
"When will you go upstairs again?"
It wasn't until his figure disappeared from my sight that I came back to my senses, and it took a while for a while to smile bitterly, he always seemed so unreliable.
But I understood it all at once.
It's true that I'm thinking too much.
Kill the deserved.
Save what should be saved.
That's enough!
It is also wrong to only kill and not to save, and it is also wrong to only save and not kill.
After thinking about it, I didn't kneel on the ground anymore and walked straight to the third floor.
As he passed by the second floor, Li Bowen's voice came again.
"Reflect on it so quickly?"
I smiled and said, "I'm not that stupid." ”
"I think you're pretty stupid." Li Bowen's voice was a little disgusted.
I couldn't help twitching the corners of my mouth slightly: "What do you want to say next time, just say it directly, there's no need to be so verbose." ”
"You're serious."
"Weird and scary."
After saying that, I didn't pay any more attention to Li Bowen and went directly to the third floor.
I didn't read any more, but just lay down in bed and quickly fell asleep.
After waking up the next day, I followed Li Bowen's instructions and went to find Liu Shan.
Liu Shan was surprised that I asked him to move to Xiawei Village, but after I explained to him that this matter was not easy for Liu Buyi, Liu Shan gladly accepted it.
With that out of the way, I continued back to the Ghost Building.
And the next few days, everything was peaceful.
Except for the occasional visit to teach me how to draw talismans, Li Bowen didn't take me anywhere, but he often went out, but every time he went out, he came back quickly.
Maybe it's because I didn't have as many things as in the first few days, but in the past few days, I have completely calmed down, and I have mastered a third of the entire talisman book.
I am already very good at drawing the most commonly used talismans.
Although it is still not as good as Li Bowen, who can fabricate talismans out of thin air, it is also a great improvement for me.
It's just that Li Bowen never taught me the Tao anymore.
Even if I saw him use the Dao method before, he only asked me to memorize the golden light mantra, as for the rest, he said that it would be bad to learn too much.
It wasn't until the seventh day that he asked me to stop drawing the talisman and let me take out the "Channeling God".
He said my heart had calmed down.
I can learn what works best for me.
And the most suitable is naturally the secret technique that belongs to the village guards, "Tongshen"
Li Bowen said that "Tongshen" was actually a secret technique created by a living immortal for the village guards, and it was not given by the city god.
Being able to control the invitation to the gods is the threshold to become an immortal in the world.
And if you can cultivate "Tongshen", you will definitely become a living immortal.
This secret art has long been gone.
The last time it appeared, it was obtained by the living earth immortal a hundred years ago.
And I'm number two.
