Chapter 343: The Middle-Aged Man Under the Tree

Liangxi City is a big city, if it is strictly divided, this city is a city under the command of Sanqiya, one of the five major factions, but Sanqiya is a group of scholars, and the discipline of the city under its command is not as strict as imagined, plus Liangxi City is located in a remote area, and it has reached the power boundary of Sanqiya, so no one will notice here.

Now it is a gate that is in charge of Liangxi City.

A door is not a Taoist inheritance, and it has nothing to do with Taoism, their Tao is the way of Hehuan, but there are very few people in this world who can apply the art of double cultivation to the right path after all, and there is no difference between a gate and the Five Pole Peaks fundamentally.

It's just that there are only two Five Realm Grandmasters in one gate, and their strength is only medium among the many first-class forces, which is not strong.

But in this Liangxi City, a gate is the force that can say that it is not the same.

The south of Liangxi City is a rich land, and the north of Liangxi City is a poor place, and the gap between the rich and the poor is very large.

At this moment, in a small courtyard in the north of Liangxi City, a teenage girl is carrying a lunch box in her hand and is cautiously walking under a tree in the courtyard.

Under that tree sat a man, a middle-aged man dressed in gray and pale as gold paper.

Ten days ago, the middle-aged man suddenly came to their house and sat down, without speaking or leaving, just sitting motionless under the tree, at first the girl was a little frightened, but as time went on she grew bolder.

Two meals a day would be prepared and handed to him in a food box.

At first, the middle-aged man didn't even look at it, and he didn't eat some until yesterday.

For some reason, the girl's heart felt a little happy, so she specially prepared some delicious food and sent it over today.

The food is very fragrant, and even the wooden lunch box on it cannot hide the faint aroma.

The middle-aged man opened his eyes and looked up, the girl didn't look stunning, just a small jasper, looking a little weak, and there seemed to be a kind of timidity in those eyes.

Ten days later, he also knew that she was the only one in the girl's house.

The middle-aged man reached out and took the lunch box, and after opening it, he found that the meal was very simple, two meat and one vegetable, and a soup.

Although the food is simple, he eats it with relish.

The two of them still didn't say a word, and after eating, the girl put away the lunch box and sat down carefully beside the middle-aged man, trying to ask some questions, but no matter what she asked, she would not get an answer, very cold.

The girl was a little disappointed, got up and returned to the house with the food box.

The next day, she continued to deliver food, and every day after that, over time, she didn't care about the middle-aged man's words, and got used to it, and she had to sit next to the man and say a lot of things every day.

He talked to himself, as if he wanted to tell all the loneliness and hope of all these years.

She didn't remember how much she had said these days, only that it was a lot, and she couldn't count it.

Although the middle-aged man has not spoken, his face has changed from disgust and coldness at the beginning to calm now, and he listens quietly.

He knew that the girl's parents died in the hands of a door, because this girl was the heavenly girl selected by a door, and the so-called heavenly girl actually had no status, to put it bluntly, she was the chosen furnace for people to play with.

When he is sixteen years old, a gate will come and take him away, and after a while, there will be an additional corpse in the Golden River outside the city.

There is still a month left before the girl turns sixteen.

The girl seemed to know her fate, and every time she said a lot of words, she would silently return to the house, and then the middle-aged man would see a figure by the window hugging his knees and crying silently.

She couldn't escape, because a door imprinted a special mark on each chosen Celestial Maiden, as long as a Celestial Maiden left Liangxi City thousands of kilometers away, she would be sensed, and if she was caught, she would only die.

Everyone in this world has their own destiny, some people are born emperors, and some people spend their lives just to become ordinary people.

Everyone shouts that fate must be changed by themselves, but there are very few people who can change their fate after all.

The middle-aged man is not a nosy person, and he doesn't care about the girl's life or death.

A few more days passed, and the girl did not come back in the afternoon, and the middle-aged man closed his eyes and didn't care.

In the evening, he still didn't come back, and the middle-aged man's brows furrowed slightly.

It wasn't until late at night that I saw the girl running back in embarrassment, crying into tears on her face, she just entered the door and threw herself into the arms of the middle-aged man and cried, intermittently saying that there was a son of an elder who took a fancy to her and wanted her to be his double cultivation furnace, if it wasn't for the critical moment someone called the son of the elder away, she might not be able to come back tonight.

The middle-aged man remained expressionless, his hands at his sides, as if he hadn't heard the words at all.

The girl was very timid, and soon fell asleep on him, and her thin body was curled up in a pitiful ball.

Before dawn, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and then I saw two young men walking in angrily, pushing open the door and scolding directly: "Little slut, Lao Tzu chose you to be the furnace because he likes you, anyway, there are not a thousand but eight hundred women in this day, and no one knows that Lao Tzu has enjoyed you in advance, do you dare to run?"

The middle-aged man pressed his hands on the girl's ears and looked up at the two people who pushed the door in.

The son of the elder obviously also saw his existence, and then a sneer appeared on his face: "I said how dare this little slut run, it turns out that he raised a wild man at home, Lao Tzu warns you that this is our heavenly daughter, and it is not something that any local chicken and tile dog can enjoy." ”

Their arrogance is very arrogant, because this Liangxi City is a gate and a hall, and he is the son of the elder of a gate, so he can cover the sky with one hand.

The middle-aged man looked at him, there was still no fluctuation in his eyes, and he didn't even say a word.

The two men standing in the doorway fell to the ground, silently losing their lives.

The middle-aged man looked down at the girl, was silent for a moment, picked her up and gently placed it on the ground, then got up and gathered the two corpses and left here.

It was as if it had never happened, until the sky was getting brighter and the sun was shining on her, and the girl woke up, and looked at the clearing beside her, and she looked a little dazed, and her face became extremely pale, and she did not look everywhere but went back to make a meal, and carefully returned to sit under the tree, and waited quietly.

Until day and night passed, the food in the food box was already cold, and the girl leaned against the tree with her knees crossed, looked at the paper umbrella on the ground, and kept crying.
