Chapter 140: Once Upon a Time in the Town

Bai Shengtian still remembered that the first time he saw Wan Yueqing was more than twenty years ago, in a dilapidated and old town.

The town has an old street with intermittent bluestone slabs, lined with adobe and blue-tiled houses, the beams under the eaves are rotten and broken, and the tiles are played by the wind and rain or passing wild cats.

On the long stone threshold polished by the years, an old man sits curiously, watching the crew from the big city busy.

I heard that it was a TV series, and soon the neighbors, old and young masters, aunts and sisters-in-law in the town gathered around to watch, three floors inside and three floors outside.

Wan Yueqing was in the midst of this crowd, she followed the crew to this strange town, it is said that because the author of the original TV series lives here, and the prototypes of the story scenes in many works can be found here.

Wan Yueqing is the age of a young girl, and it is very suitable to play a junior high school girl who loves to sing.

She has a beautiful singing voice, bright eyes, and even more seductive when she smiles, and the people in the town see Wan Yueqing and talk about some of the works that Wan Yueqing performed when she was a child star.

In fact, she is not very old now, but she is also an old qualification in the entertainment industry, and at this time, Bai Shengtian has just been divorced, disheartened, and is ready to go out to work.

He squatted on the flat roof of a small two-story building, overlooking the filming scene of the TV series from a high place, and it was difficult to take his eyes off Wan Yueqing's face.

But he also knew that this was a person from another world, she was like a fairy on top, and he was just an ordinary man, or the sick kind.

A real fairy will not inexplicably run to a pool in the wilderness to bathe, let alone be unsuspectingly picked up by ordinary people and then carried home by him.

Whether it is Dong Yong or the Cowherd, after all, they are just scoundrels and hooligans, no different from those old men who want to buy female college students as wives in remote mountain villages...... One thing, the old man in the mountain village still paid for it.

Bai Shengtian, like other idlers in the town, went to watch the crew filming every day, until the day before he was ready to go south to Guangzhou, he still came to the flat roof of the small building with a train ticket in his pocket.

It was here that he met another woman who had controlled him until now and changed his life.

If Wan Yueqing is a fairy, then the woman in front of her is a goddess.

The fairy always wears beautiful clothes and brilliant ornaments, and shows her dancing posture in the mist-shrouded heavenly palace, so that other gods who are high above can admire it, pointing her dancing, beauty and figure.

The goddess is different, she is chaste and clean, lofty, self-controlled, awe-inspiring, and upright, so she suppresses the evil heart of wandering.

"What are you doing here?" The woman took her eyes away from Wan Yueqing's face, and her light gaze fell on Bai Shengtian.

It was a bit cold on this day, the clouds and ashes were fluttering, the two-story building on the high ground could overlook most of the town, the branches and leaves of the plane trees in the yard were decaying, and there were chirping sparrows on a few dead branches, Bai Shengtian stood there in a daze, as if he had been fixed.

"I ask you, what are you doing here?" The woman smiled, and it turned out to be a poor person.

"This is my uncle's house." Only then did Bai Shengtian pluck up the courage and said that it was natural for him to come here, and this woman climbed to the roof of someone else's house inexplicably.

"Uncle Ling opened a rice noodle shop at the intersection over there? The business is very good, no wonder the houses built are newer and bigger than others. "There are other three-story buildings in the town, but that's Xinhua Bookstore, and the other two-story buildings are not as tall or big as this one.

It is inlaid with tiles on all sides, and it is not like other people's homes that have a little bit on the front.

"My uncle's rice noodle shop has been open for many years, and it's delicious, have you tried it?" Although the woman in front of him has a cold temperament, which is the unprecedented elegance of a young man in a small town like Bai Shengtian, Bai Shengtian's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, not to mention that he is dead to women, but he will not give birth to some inferiority complex and cowardice, so that he does not dare to talk to her casually.

"Actually, the soup made without poppy husks is also delicious."

"Who's going to let it go?"

"The soup base is indeed the soul of a bowl of noodles, the big bones and the old hen boil the soup, the pork belly is marinated and then fried, and then stewed with the soup, the rice noodles are blanched for one minute, and finally sprinkled with green onions, add a lard fried egg, all kinds of aromas are mixed together, the aroma is overflowing, making people salivate, such rice noodles, why use crooked ways?"

The woman said and sighed softly, "There is no salvation in this world, and there are too many more than five billion people, I feel that it is enough to leave tens of thousands of people." ”

Bai Shengtian couldn't help but be stunned again, just because there are poppy husks in the rice noodle soup of your uncle's house, do you think people all over the world deserve to die?

He didn't even go to see Wan Yueqing and the crew, he was completely attracted by the beautiful and arrogant woman in front of him.

"You're not convinced?"

Bai Shengtian shook his head, "The bad guys should die, the good guys shouldn't, if you have a way to let more than five billion people die and there are tens of thousands of people left, then you should have a way to let only the bad guys die, and then leave the good guys." ”

"Why do bad guys deserve to die?" The woman scoffed as if it were the biggest joke in the world.

Isn't that a matter of course? For thousands of years, everyone has felt this way, Bai Shengtian feels that she has met a madman today, maybe she climbed to the top of the building, she is crazy or something, and maybe she will jump off the building later.

"Bad people are because of good people. If you want all the bad guys to die, you should first destroy the good guys, and only when the good guys die, then there won't be any bad guys. ”

The woman looked up at the sky, as if she was talking to someone across time and space.

Bai Shengtian felt novel, and he was a little frightened, because he actually felt that what she said seemed to have a little bit of truth.

"Now there are 5.7 billion people on the earth, and if we kill 2.85 billion bad people, then there will be no bad people? No, of the remaining 2.85 billion people, 1425 million people will consider themselves good people, and the other 1425 million people will become the new bad people. ”

The woman stretched out a few fingers like white bamboo shoots, pinching and calculating, as if such a simple calculation made her feel a little embarrassed, and her brows furrowed.

Bai Shengtian, a young man in a small town, had never heard such a statement, he was novel, and he was frightened, and he felt that the woman in front of him was a little dangerous, just like a madman in the town, no different from ordinary people, and he would greet Bai Shengtian with a grin, but Bai Shengtian was very afraid of him, because he tied his son to the ladder as a pig and killed him.

"If this situation continues, and in the end there are only two people left in this world, you and me, and one person must become a bad person and die, then who do you say it will be?" The woman's pinching and calculating fingers were put away, clenched into a small fist, tapped her own chest, and stretched out an index finger to point at Bai Shengtian.

Bai Shengtian couldn't help but be a little confused, of course he didn't want to die, but if he wanted others to die because he didn't want to die, was this still a good person?

If you're not a good person anymore, then you're a damn bad person?

Are you a bad person? Bai Shengtian didn't think it either, because he had never done anything hurtful.

"Hahaha-" Seeing Bai Shengtian's sluggish appearance, the woman turned around and laughed at the alley ahead.

Bai Shengtian saw that someone in the old alley seemed to hear the movement here, they looked up twice, and it seemed that they didn't see either the woman nor Bai Shengtian, and continued to be busy.

Hearing the woman's laughter, Bai Shengtian came back to his senses and smiled along, the woman should just be joking, but she is seriously thinking about it here, but it is more like a neurotic.

"You're not from our town, are you?" Bai Shengtian chatted with her.

"Hmm."

"Are you here to make a TV series too?"

"No, I'm just passing by...... Can you do me a favor? ”

"Just say." Bai Shengtian still has the enthusiasm of a young man, especially in the face of such a beautiful woman, he has some physical problems, but there is no psychological problem.

"Then I'll take you as a promise."

"You haven't said anything yet!"

"Do you believe in immortals?" With a slight jump, the woman stood on the fence on the edge of the roof, and walked up and down no more than the width of a palm.

"Be careful." Bai Shengtian was taken aback, when he was a teenager, Bai Shengtian, like many township teenagers, liked to test his courage, and often did some dangerous actions, such as what the woman in front of him did.

Young people regard face and self-esteem as greater than life, and they are most afraid of being laughed at - until something really happens, someone is disabled or dies because of it, they will withdraw from these dangerous competitions, and the township teenagers in the eighties and nineties basically have some such experiences, and Bai Shengtian is no exception.

"I ask you, do you believe in immortals?" The woman stood on the railing, the white skirt fluttering, revealing a short calf under the skirt, slender and light, round heel and soft instep, in the gloomy weather, like white jade, with dazzling brilliance.

"I don't believe it."

After Bai Shengtian finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he was at eye level with the woman in front of him, and the woman was standing on the railing, what about himself?

He lowered his head and found himself floating in the air a meter above the ground, he slowly rotated, as if the world was spinning, and the feeling of not touching the ground made him panic.

Bai Shengtian was short of breath, and he didn't lose control to scream, but he couldn't help but dance and struggle, trying to jump back to the ground from the air, but he hit the plane tree next to him with a vertical leap.

The sparrows flew up one after another, chirping non-stop, as if complaining about this guy who bumped into him headlong and pulled all the bird on Bai Shengtian.

Smelling the stench of bird feces, Bai Shengtian sneezed, and the branch he had just grabbed snapped with a "click", and his body fell down.

At this time, Bai Shengtian finally couldn't help but scream, and the woman beckoned, and Bai Shengtian was suddenly caught by her like a marionette.

Bai Shengtian didn't float in the air anymore, he fell to the top of the building, his hands pressed on the ground, and looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief and a little surprise, did he really meet the immortals?

"I will give you untold riches in the years to come...... When you finish the task I have given you, I will help you cure the hidden disease. The woman said lightly.

Hidden disease?

Bai Shengtian clenched his teeth, he couldn't help but blush, the young man's most unspeakable secret was directly exposed, and his nails almost blurred the flesh and blood dug out of his palm.
