Chapter 90: Like a Dead Man

Hearing this, the little Taoist priest's eyes lit up, and the corners of his eyes were clearly and clearly bent into a good-looking range.

"But let's not help here, go out of Zhuangzi and look around, find a place to wait, after all, they don't welcome us."

The corners of the little Taoist's eyes bent a little more.

Cao An took his little hand and walked out of Wang Zhuang in Zhuang Min's slightly lost eyes, "Isn't it very in line with the rivers and lakes in your mind?" ”

"Are all heroes like this? Uncle Cao. ”

"What kind?"

"It's like Uncle Cao, punishing the strong and helping the weak, helping the world and saving the people, and being indifferent to fame and fortune, and hiding his fame!"

"Where did you learn these words? Don't tell me it's in the Tao. ”

The little Taoist priest smiled, "No, these are all things that I heard from the old man in the teahouse every time I followed Shizun into the city, I thought it was very interesting, so I remembered it." ”

"In the future, we must remember that if there are no taboos, we must only uphold the morality in our hearts, be brave and unforged, and go all the way; If you ......" Cao An stopped when he said this, and did not continue.

"Uncle Cao?"

"Forget it, don't listen to it, you're still too young, your master will teach you in the future."

He thought of himself, in fact, his own path seemed to be free and easy, but only he understood how big the rules and constraints were, which is why he has always been cautious and tries not to mix with other people's cause and effect.

In short: either you don't believe and act on your own terms, or you don't cross the distance at all. The most taboo is to swing in the middle, not having the pleasure of the former, but also carrying the cause and effect of the latter.

He himself sometimes wants to be happy, but the habits he has developed for decades, as well as what he has learned, have not given him the opportunity to walk this road, and his behavior can deceive others. But he can't deceive his heart, and if he can't pass the level of conscience, his heart is full of demons and he can't live in peace.

The two of them came out of Zhuangzi with a dog.

"Master, where are you going?"

"Find a place that is not too far away, where you can see Zhuangzi, but not so that the people of Zhuangzi will find it."

Old Huang's nose sniffed violently, "When I came, I noticed that there was a small hill nearby, I can see this side, it's not far away, do you want to go there?" ”

"Then what are you waiting for, take the wind."

The breeze swept the two of them through the mountains and forests, and the breeze passed through the stream, not alarming the living beings.

When settled, Cao An found that the scenery here is unique, the mountain is in the shape of a wolf roaring moon, on the top of the single peak, the entire Wangzhuang is in full view, and the distance from the Wangzhuang below is hundreds of zhang, with Cao An's eyesight, this distance is not a problem, under the full operation, everyone in Wangzhuang can be seen.

It's just that after all, it's too far away, and the details still can't be seen, but it's enough to observe the situation in Zhuangzi.

"The village chief of Wangzhuang obviously knows your master, do you have any impression of him?"

"No, I've never met him, it should be a friend of the tutor I knew before, the knife mouth view is originally remote, few people visit, and the people who come are basically the tutor's own friends, so I remember it very clearly."

Cao An nodded, "Also, he didn't recognize you either, it should have been a friendship a long time ago." ”

"It's in a hurry, only a few cakes left before, let's deal with a few bites."

Sitting in the open space of the 'wolf's head', Cao An took out two cakes and handed one to Daoqing, no one expected such a thing to happen, although he came, he was driven out again.

Facing the Zhuangzi at the foot of the mountain, Cao An chewed the cake one by one, took out a straw made of reed poles from the strap tied to the big gourd, swallowed it with water, and sat beside him with a sad eye, seeing that his thoughts were wandering, he didn't dare to disturb, so he could only look at his own cake and look at Cao An's cake.

After a few bites, I held it in my hand and didn't eat it again.

By the time Cao An came back to his senses, almost a quarter of an hour had passed, and he found that the cake in Daoqing's hand had only eaten a few bites, and he was stunned for a moment, "Doesn't it suit your appetite?" Small children are not picky eaters. ”

"I, I'll eat water."

"Ahh Look at my brain, come on, come and sit here, there's another tube here. He picked up the Daoqing, put it on the other side of himself, and took out a reed pipe from the strap and handed it to the Daoqing.

After the gourd became bigger, this drinking water became a problem, Cao An, who had no choice, could only do this, according to the characteristics of the treasure soldier, the gourd behind him could be as big as he wanted, at least when it grew to the tenth grade treasure soldier.

Cao An felt a little hanging, if it was placed in the past, when would the yellow gourd see the treasure soldiers and still be able to divide the peace, it would be hated to swallow the other treasure soldiers immediately, but it is not the first time that it has been together with the year sword, there is no reaction at all, that can only show a problem, the yellow skin gourd is still far from reaching the level of devouring the year sword.

"Can you feel something? Lao Huang. ”

"Except for making the little demon uncomfortable, there doesn't seem to be any other feeling, it's just that these people in the Zhuangzi don't feel like a living person to the little demon." Lao Huang squatted beside Cao An, and when he heard Cao An ask, his face wrinkled together, and after thinking for a while, he said such a feeling.

These words startled Cao An and Daoqing.

Suddenly, a chill welled up in my heart.

"What do you mean not to be like a living person? It can't be that the whole Zhuangzi is a dead man, right? What do you feel is wrong? ”

"No, no, no, it's not that the little demon is all dead, it's that they give the little demon the feeling of being dead." Lao Huang shook his head and said.

"What's the difference?"

"The feeling of a dying person to a little demon is also like a dead person."

Cao An understood what it meant, "I don't understand, what is it that is doing it, there is no demonic energy, no ghost energy, demon?" I don't seem to have come into contact with demons so far, if only your master Chiyangzi was here, he is well-informed, even if he doesn't recognize it, he can probably guess a thing or two based on this. ”

Cao An fell down, the gourd cushioned behind him, leaning on it so comfortably, the sun was slanting westward, and there was still a little time before it got dark, and this thing was weird from beginning to end.

……

In Zhuangzi, everyone had dinner early, and according to usual, at this point, the people who went to the ground have not yet returned.

It's just that this time is different from the past, in the ancestral hall, Wang Quanan looked at less than half of the people who came, with a gloomy and terrible face, and sent Wang Shi and a group of people from the escort team to urge them from house to house.

This old man, who used to speak well in the Zhuangzi, has had his authority challenged after repeated defeats.

"Uncle Genzi, why haven't you gone to the ancestral hall yet? It's getting dark? ”

"Don't go to my funeral, you go and call something else, our family won't go, what can we do if we go? Will they be put together so that the monster can pick it up and eat it? Get out, we're going to go to bed with the door closed. The man had a cold face, and he didn't have a good face for these guards, and he still had a large guillotine in his hand, which was used to make pigweed on weekdays.

rushed out to Wang Shi and others of the escort team.

"Everyone still has a chance to survive when they get together, but Uncle Genzi, your family is alone outside, what will you do if the monster finds you?"

"Go back and tell Old Man Wang that he doesn't have to worry about the life or death of our family, who said that the monster will definitely come back to us? There are a lot of you, maybe I'll go to your place to find you, anyway, I will be picked to eat, and you can't do anything about it, hurry up, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind. ”

With a bang, the door slammed shut.

"Uncle Genzi, Uncle Genzi ......"
