Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Law of Begging for Food
Qiu Peng was dressed in plain white clothes, tied with a bone jade waist wear, his own face was brilliant, flying all the way from the mountain, like an immortal, attracting a lot of people's attention, fortunately, Ye Xiu has self-knowledge, dare not bother, the disciples in the store saw it, most of them just nodded in greeting, and then continued to guard the store.
Kou Shixiong and Jian Ziteng hugged their fists and arched their hands, greeting this immortal master in the door.
Qiu Peng replied with his head and said, "The two of you have to work, just leave the rest to me." ”
Qiu Peng saw that Chen Jing and Cui Ying were still with two children, smiled, and said sideways: "Two Taoist friends come with me." ”
After Jian Ziteng watched a few people walk away, he turned his head and saw that the stupid bear beside him was in a good mood, and said, "What's the matter, old bear, led the distinguished guest to open the way and walked back, and the fairy fate smashed you on the head?" ”
Koshi looked at him with a terrible look.
Jian Ziteng's eyes widened, "Is there really a play?" ”
Kou Shixiong said happily: "What do you want? Every day, this fairy fate, that chance, people like you and me have that blessing? ”
Jian Ziteng snorted, "Then your happy fart." ”
Kou Shixiong snorted twice, "That little immortal master has a rough appetite for dealing with me. Don't you know, when I took the two little immortal masters up the mountain, they asked me a few things, none of which were about our Spirit Control Sect, all of them were about the natural calamity in the northland. ”
Jian Ziteng rolled his eyes and said, "That's all?" ”
Kou Shixiong said strangely: "You Jian Ziteng is also a person from the past, you know that a mountain gate is like a national capital, the specifications seem to be thousands of miles apart, but the meaning inside is almost the same, those people from all walks of life who desperately want to make friends with the mountain gate, and those who want to be promoted and make a fortune in the worldly mortal world, what is the difference?" Same! ”
Kou Shixiong continued: "Even if the little immortal master is not capable enough, as long as he has the heart, this will be fine, at least he is not a ruthless monk who looks down on people. ”
Jian Ziteng didn't have a feeling in his heart, "Aren't you afraid that person is a guy who can be false and wronged, and likes to drill camps?" ”
Kou Shixiong glanced at him, "You civil officials who were born in school, you can be vicious, you have a black heart, and you also smear others, why didn't you die in the capital in the first place?" If you survive, you will harm others and cause trouble to others. ”
Jian Ziteng sighed, "The monarch is dead, the doctor is dead, and the soldier is dead." I was going to defend it, but unfortunately His Majesty the Emperor ran away early, and we scholars who were powerless were really unable to do it alone.
Moreover, they are all displaced refugees, and there are fewer killings and insufficient deterrence. Kill them all? Those are all people, not pigs, 10,000 steps back, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of pigs to kill and abuse, who can afford it? Many of your generals are known as 'butchers', old bear, how many homeless people have you chopped? ”
Kou Baixiong pondered for a moment and said: "At first, I didn't think too much about it, I just cared about killing and defending the country, and my heart was not excessive. But later, there was really no way, and after the famine, there were more displaced people, many of whom were still their own citizens, so they couldn't do it or lift a knife. ”
There are often some things that are unbearable to look back on, and it is better to continue to live after waking up than to die.
Kou Shixiong turned to normal, and said in good spirits: "In the past, my old bear was just a barnyard general, and there was a large list of generals sitting on my head. ”
Jian Zipi smiled and said: "You are you, don't use 'we' to set almost, the old man is a scholar in his bones, and he looks down on you soldiers the most." ”
Kou Shixiong smiled, pointed at him and said, "Jealousy, you are jealous." ”
Jian Ziteng flicked his sleeves and left, going to the office.
Qiu Peng led the way in front, walking slowly along the winding mountain road, the further back he went, the steeper the slope became, and he intended to take care of the two children, mainly because of Mo Lian's foot strength, Xiaohua was still held by Cui Ying on his neck.
Passing by the same door, he saluted first, and at the second glance, he saw two large and two small ones behind, as if he knew the severity, and hurried by without asking too much.
Chen Jing looked at the building of the Lingzong Sect, there is no sense of magnificence, white walls and green tiles, only simple, the victory is in the palace is vertical and tall, the momentum is strong, especially the highest hall, high above the top of the mountain, seems to be connected with the back of the peak.
Walk to a corner of the mountain road, where a cross pavilion sits, under which there is a stone round table, on which the wine and food are already placed.
Qiu Peng, as the host, sat down first after saying "please".
Chen Jingke sat down opposite him indifferently, Cui Ying saw that there were only four stone piers, and let Xiaohua sit on his lap after getting off the seat.
There is only the last seat left, Mo Lian is like sitting on pins and needles, how can a wild child He De sit next to the gods? grabbed Chen Jing's sleeve with his hand, didn't speak, and stared at him with a pair of small beast eyes.
Chen Jing was also helpless, so he had to change places with him, Mo Lian happily changed the past, as soon as he looked up, his heart was bitter, it was not right to sit opposite the fairy master, it seemed even more inappropriate, but if he changed back, he didn't dare, he simply drooped his head and played with his fingers.
Chen Jing saw it in his eyes, stroked the child's head with his hand, and did not reveal his careful thoughts, everyone had to have a process of adaptation.
Cui Ying's hands were quick and anxious, so he poured three glasses of wine with a wine jug first, but poured it for himself first, and then gave it to the other two, as for Mo Lian, he must have been ignored.
Let's have a cup first, Cui Ying smacked her lips and said, "That's it, I thought it was some kind of immortal wine." ”
Chen Jing sighed helplessly, and apologized to Qiu Peng: "She is like this, don't be surprised by fellow Daoists." After speaking, he was punished with a glass of wine.
Qiu Peng has no intention of blaming, "Haojie is frank, the villain hides his secrets, Cui Daoyou is a person of temperament, and he must belong to Haojie, how can I blame." ”
Cui Ying served a few dishes on a plate, and asked Xiaohua to try to eat them with chopsticks, no one grabbed them at this time, so she was not in a hurry, and asked Qiu Peng casually, "On the way I just came, everyone I met was the first to bow to you, you are not small in the sect, right?" ”
Chen Jing gave Mo Lian a few chopsticks and dishes, this boy is as timid as a mouse at this time, and he has long lost the courage to spill in the past, and when he heard Cui Ying's words, they all looked at Qiu Peng.
Qiu Peng generously admitted, "The mountain of our Lingling Sect is not big, at most it is a second-class sect in Nanyuzhou, the cultivation faction is thin, it can be regarded as a lineage and multiple transmissions, I am the second in the descendant discipleship, and I started a few years earlier, taking advantage of my junior brothers and sisters." ”
Hearing that it was only second, Cui Ying said with a little regret: "Second, your luck is still a little worse, if you are ranked first, you will be the chief and you will be majestic when you listen to it." ”
Qiu Peng said with a bitter face: "Senior brother, he ...... has died in battle, and the future division has picked up the burden of the beam, and now it is on a few of us. ”
For the first time, Cui Ying felt that she really had a crow's mouth, "Drinking, drinking, no alcohol, everything is worried, and there is no worries about the wine world." ”
Chen Jing tried to ask, "Blood Soul Cave?" ”
Qiu Peng drank a glass of wine and said, "It must have been done by the Blood Soul Cave." ”
Chen Jing said regretfully: "If you can solve the Blood Soul Cave once and for all......"
Then he shook his head and said, "It's too difficult." ”
Qiu Peng nodded and said, "That's true." But ......."
Chen Jing said unexpectedly: "Is there really a way? ”
Qiu Peng sat as usual, looking down the mountain, "If you look at it in the long run, the current Blood Soul Cave will inevitably disappear." ”
Cui Ying fed a small flower with her hand, took another bite of the dish herself, and teased Mo Lian, who was a little ashamed, but she didn't listen to what Qiu Peng said.
Chen Jing took a sip of wine, waiting for Qiu Peng's insight.
"Why did the Blood Soul Cave choose to establish a sect on the edge of the ancient battlefield?" Qiu Peng asked.
"The ancient battlefield breeds many Yin Souls, which is what the Blood Soul Cave needs, and even necessary." Chen Jing replied.
"Yes, yes." Qiu Peng continued: "Now that the natural disasters in the north have caused a human disaster, it has given a lot of convenience to the Blood Soul Cave, and there is still the possibility of growth, but it won't take too long, it will only take a hundred and ten years, and the land of thousands of miles will no longer be uninhabited, and naturally it will not be able to restore the mountains and rivers of the family and country. ...... then"
Chen nodded and said, "At that time, it will be impossible for the Blood Soul Cave to guard a wasteland that is useless to them and wait for death. It's just that in that case, will the demon cult demons in the Blood Soul Cave go south to plague the world unscrupulously in order to continue their survival? ”
Qiu Peng shook his head and said, "It's unlikely that that kind of situation will happen." ”
Qiu Peng said with a smile again: "I just said that my own sect is second-class, and I am somewhat humble, since I can stabilize the Blood Soul Cave from beginning to end, it is conceivable that the Blood Soul Cave is even more influential.
Whether they go south in the future or go to Yujinzhou in the east, as long as they leave, it is inevitable that they will fall apart, and it will be difficult to become a big trouble in various places. ”
Chen Jing remembered what he had seen and heard in the landscape chronicles, and said: "The Spirit Sect has a lot of roots with the ancient battlefield, if the ancient battlefield is no longer a fierce place in the future, then ......"
Qiu Peng said gloomily: "The 'spirit' in the three words of the Spirit Sect refers to the heroic spirit, from the beginning of the founding of the sect, the disciples in the door called the heroic spirit, eight or nine times out of ten are taken from the ancient battlefield, people change the time and place, the blood soul cave will disappear, and my Lingzong will inevitably decline in the future." ”
Chen Jing was speechless, he can foresee the future now, which is not necessarily a good thing, at least he is not in a good mood.
Qiu Peng smiled lightly and said: "It's not in the way, the master once warned me and other disciples that cultivation is to act against the sky, and changing the method is not a major event compared to the collapse of the sky. ”
Chen Jing knew that Qiu Peng's words were relaxed and comfortable, his own suffering was only swallowed by his own family, and outsiders heard more sympathy, but now saying it in person can be regarded as a kind of face-to-face.
Chen Jing changed the topic and talked about the cause and effect of him and Cui Ying killing the demon sect demons, which naturally gave up the matter of Zhao Fuhua and Cangye, and the person who died was naturally replaced by Jiang An, who was as timid as a mouse.
"Good!"
Qiu Peng heard the sword that killed the demon at the end, and clapped his hands and applauded, "The two Taoist friends are working together, then Jiang An defected outside, I don't know that there are mountain people outside the mountain, relying on cultivation to underestimate the two, it is reasonable to be killed in a different place, and he deserves to die." ”
Chen Jing recalled the scene at that time, and was somewhat glad, "That Jiang An is still a little too big in the end, if he is not blinded by the fairy money and leaves decisively, there is almost nothing I can do." ”
Cui Ying chewed on the seasonal mountain treasures, and had already drunk a few pots of wine, she was a little drunk at this time, and said with a big tongue: "Brother Qiu is right, that Jiang An is a waste Jindan, kill him before and after for less than half an hour, like this kind of evil cultivator, kill it, there is nothing to praise." ”
Qiu Peng laughed a few times, and praised without hesitation: "Daoyou is really heroic. After speaking, he poured Cui Ying a glass of wine.
Chen Jing knew Qiu Peng's thoughts, as long as he dared to kill and could kill the demons of the Demon Sect, especially the evil cultivators of the Blood Soul Cave, he would be a fellow practitioner, and it was so simple.
They have been hostile to each other for at least two hundred years, and the blood feud during this period is not enough for outsiders, and outsiders can conclude by guessing only that they can kill a Blood Soul Cave monk who condenses the golden pill, even if it is a waste of golden pills, it is enough to make Qiu Peng salute one or two.
Qiu Peng took out two more white porcelain pill bottles in his hand and handed them to the two of them respectively, "Five Qingqing Pills, two Daoists only need to take one, at most two or three days, they can eliminate hidden dangers, even if the Blood Soul Cave is in person, they can't find out the details." ”
Chen Jing got up and said, "Thank you for your help." ”
Qiu Peng pressed his hands falsely, "Among fellow Daoists, there is no need to say these empty words. ”
At this time, the three of them heard the sound of children shouting from the bottom of the mountain, and it must be Mo Lian and Xiaohua who had just gone down the mountain to wander together.
Mo Lian sat opposite the fairy master, trembling all the time, and finally couldn't help but beg Chen Jing, he wanted to go to the shop at the foot of the mountain to have a look, and he wanted to take Xiaohua with him.
Qiu Peng said with a smile that it was enough to go, in the Spirit Control Sect, no one would deliberately bully the two children.
Chen Jing warned Mo Lian to go down and hang out, see more, talk less, and don't do anything, so the two of them went down the mountain.
Hearing the child's shouting at this time, Chen Jing said earnestly: "Let's go and have a look first." ”
Qiu Peng bowed his head, "Let's go." ”
Cui Ying was in a hurry, came to the fault of the mountain road, shot down with a foot, smashed on the stone pavement below, bent his knees and sank to gain momentum, and jumped up again.
Chen Jing was relatively ingenious, the soles of his feet exerted force, got up and flew down, and the many light works in the rivers and lakes were a few ways, and when he encountered a rocky place, his toes touched, made a dragonfly point of water posture, and continued to rush down the mountain.
Qiu Peng muttered: "One seeks strength and strength, and the other takes subtleties. The momentum is as strong as a landslide, and the weight is as light as a flying. There are indeed many talented people in the cultivation world. ”
Cui Ying came to the foot of the mountain first, Chen Jing arrived a step late, but he saw the two children first, not in the store, but in a place on the edge, Mo Lian was talking to a person who was obviously not a disciple of the Spirit Control Sect, and Xiaohua was pulling Mo Lian hard at this time, obviously wanting him to leave together.
After getting along for a few days, Chen Jing knew that Mo Lian was either extremely hungry, or he was a coward, and he might occasionally say some big things, and some ...... It's too lazy to eat, and he doesn't dare to take the initiative to cause trouble, even if he was eating at the same table with the fairy in his mind just now.
Chen Jing was afraid that his unintentional actions would cause a big disaster, but fortunately, this kid knew how much to measure, and he didn't have many tricks, even if he caused trouble, he was the size of him, so Chen Jing let him go down the mountain alone.
Chen Jing hid behind the wall of a shop, stopped Cui Ying, who was about to rush over, and said: "That person is not like a monk of the Spirit Control Sect, it doesn't hurt to take a look first, if the child can cope with it, we won't help, after all, we can only help for a while, and it will last a long time." ”
Cui Ying shook her head and woke up drunk, "Okay, anyway, in this kind of place, I don't believe that anyone will embarrass two children." ”
Xiaohua pulled Mo Lian's arm, anxious and angry, "Don't think about it, let's go, people can't give it to us for nothing." ”
Mo Lian staggered two steps after being pulled, turned back to Xiaohua and said, "You go to the two big brothers first, I'll try again, anyway, I don't have anything, I don't have to lose money." ”
Xiaohua stomped her foot and complained: "Leave you alone!" ”
Mo Lian pointed to the little flower that walked away, and said to the person in front of him dressed in green scarf and linen: "Little girl, hypocrisy." ”
The man smiled softly, "I have rations transported thousands of miles away, and you don't have any of them, so you want to empty the gloves of the white wolf?"
Boy, get acquainted, leave with your sister, and be less of an eyesore in front of me. ”
Mo Lian smiled as honestly as he could, "If I take out one or two big bucks, you will sell them to me?" ”
The man's eyebrows were raised, what he said just now was too full, so that this wild child got into the air, but even so, this dirty and smelly wild child must not have seen enough, and said with a smile: "If you can really take out one or two big money, I, a trader, will naturally sell it to you. ”
After speaking, he shook his hand, "Don't worry, you have to take the fairy money out to buy it, do you?" ”
Mo Lian was stunned, and Han Han asked, "Immortal money?" ”
The man sneered, "Oh, the fairy money doesn't know ......"
Mo Lian's eyebrows and mouse eyes whispered: "Or, I'll kowtow to you a few times?" ”
The man laughed and said, "Give me a confession to Lao Tzu?" I have sons and daughters, and there is no shortage of you wild son, and I am not so cheap as to let a wild child kowtow and grow his ambition. ”
Mo Lian opened his mouth, rolled his eyes a few times, and said unrelentingly: "A few are not good, knock dozens of ...... Hundreds, what's up? ”
The man gasped, pointed at him and said, "Okay, you knock, until Lao Tzu is satisfied, until Lao Tzu is in a good mood, Lao Tzu will reward you with some food." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Mo Lian kneeling on the ground with his legs, the man was finally a little anxious, he didn't expect that when he encountered such a small splash, he hurriedly said: "It has to be a loud head, the kind that I have to hear every time, one less sound, one pound less, no, ten pounds less grain." ”
"Order, listen up."
said that it was a ringing head, Mo Lian was not ambiguous at all, and poked his head on the ground every time, and the muffled sound was endless, and it was really not a bad sound.
A few steps away from the inn, I heard a continuous sound, walked out of a few wild repairs, and when I came out, I saw this slightly funny scene, the corners of my mouth were smiling, and no one asked the reason, but when I looked at the person opposite the child, I was a little disdainful.
After Xiaohua walked away, she was called by Chen Jing, and at this time, she saw that Mo Lian's guy actually kowtowed to someone, and it seemed that he was still sincere, Xiaohua's eyebrows and eyes were twisted into a flower.
Qiu Peng was behind them and said softly: "I'll go, a businessman, you shouldn't be a child like this." ”
Cui Ying wanted to go over and teach the guy who held food and self-respect, but was stopped by Chen Jing.
Chen Jing shook his head and said, "No." The things that we people value are worthless in Mo Lian's heart today. ”
A wandering wild child, for a bite to eat, in order to survive, willing to kowtow to others, there is no pain in his heart, but full of enthusiasm, careful thinking to place little hope, practice himself, trying to win some sympathy.
The way of the dog's day.
