Chapter 24: The Life of a Little Man
The big guys have the decisions of the big guys.
Little people have the lives of little people.
Since Dai Yunong mastered that set of breathing methods, he has been addicted to the realm of standing and boxing, but it has driven Tian Yi to be more diligent in the past few days.
With You Yanji helping Dai Yunong, it is indeed a lot easier, and with Song Qing'a staring at it, it is easy and comfortable.
Compared with the previous few days, there are many fewer outsiders in Caotou Village.
Paper has never been able to contain the fire, and the remaining eight caves have been smashed into pieces, which is no longer an airtight secret.
The ruins of the eight Great Caves are enough for a large group of people to rob for a while.
"Why is our village called Caotou Village and Caotou Cave Heaven?" Dai Yunong sat on the threshold of the old village chief's house and asked casually.
When he learned that the old village chief was the heavenly official of Caotou Village and even a god who had lived for a long, long time, Dai Yunong often ran here these days, and Liao Ge wanted to come, but he couldn't lift the powerful dark iron on his arms.
As for Song Qing'a, the old village chief is estimated to be small-minded, and every time Song Qing'a comes to look for him, he either closes the door or pretends to be asleep.
"The grass is a coward. The old village chief replied without hesitation.
Dai Yunong asked the general, "It's that simple?"
"What if that's not the case?" the old village chief knocked on the old cigarette stick, and looked at Dai Yunong with a smile, as if he was talking about a very ordinary little thing.
Dai Yunong didn't believe it, "The grass head and the grass are very different, okay." ”
The old village chief didn't say anything, and took a big gulp of clumsy dry tobacco, but he didn't actually suck out anything, but he was used to watching the smoke rings scatter from the circle into pieces, as if the knot of many years had been untied by itself.
"After living here for so many years, it's actually quite tiring, watching my peers multiply and die, and watching my juniors grow and die, which makes me want to die and afraid of death. ”
The old village chief was talking, but Dai Yunong's voice suddenly interrupted him: "Then why did Uncle Tian come so late when my parents were intercepted and killed by the demon clan?"
The old village chief was about to send a cigarette stick to his mouth, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his vicissitudes of life.
Finally, he took a puff of dry tobacco and said kindly: "Do you miss your father?"
Dai Yunong said to himself: "At that time, you were a heavenly official, Mr. Lao Private School was a heavenly monarch, Caotou Village or Caotou Cave Heaven, everything could not escape your perception, why did you wait until my parents had died tragically Uncle Tian to be late?"
The old village chief groaned, his face was embarrassed, he didn't expect Dai Yunong to sort things out so quickly.
In fact, Dai Yunong was able to detect clues, or because of Tian Shuhou's previous straightforward narration, Dai Yunong was not a fool, and he quickly knocked on Song Qing'a's side to know what kind of control the heavenly official and the heavenly monarch had over a cave sky.
Dai Yunong was facing the old village chief, his hands were clenched into fists, the second was a person, so he looked at this matter very rationally, if it wasn't for other secrets, Tian Shuhou wouldn't have had to bring him back to the village at that time, and there was no need for the hundred and ten households in Caotou Village to raise him as an adult, and the old gentleman would not lead him home to drink such a bowl of broth.
One old and one young were speechless.
"Because your parents deserve to die!" Tian Shuhou's voice came from behind Dai Yunong, and the shadow and voice pressed on Dai Yunong like a mountain, as if he was out of breath.
He couldn't have imagined that the answer he got was such an answer!
Damn it?
Tian Shuhou leaned over and touched his head, and said in a deep voice: "Some things have passed and have nothing to do with you, there is no need to pursue them." ”
Dai Yunong's head was pressed by Tian Shu's thick palm, and for a while, the whole person seemed to be deflated, a little aggrieved and sad.
"I just want to know why, that's all. ”
The old village chief sighed, and waved his hand holding the cigarette stick, "Let's talk about it, I didn't expect that there would be a Zhan Liancheng later, and I didn't expect Dai Yunong to step into cultivation in one step, who would have thought that there would be any more situations in the future? ”
Tian Shuhou sat on the threshold with his back to the two of them, and his eyes wandered and said: "The reason why gods are called gods is because they have divinity, which is the most fundamental difference between all things in the world and gods. ”
"Even if there is a cultivation to reach the sky, like the realm of the three patriarchs of the world in the firmament, he is just an ordinary man in the eyes of the gods. ”
The old village chief took over the conversation and said: "The gods are unattainable, and the years are eternal, and the remnants of the gods killed by Zhan Yancheng are just dying ants that have been consumed by the Great Dao. ”
The old village chief continued: "If it weren't for the earth-shattering reversal that occurred within the gods back then, today's Dome would have been the same as that overseas wild world. ”
The old village chief suddenly remembered something and said: "Oh, yes, at that time, the dome was still called the Dome Ancient Star, and it was not a world. ”
"Later, in the war of the gods, the original inhabitants of the Dome led by that person finally hit the ancient heavenly court with the assistance of the patriarch of the three sects, and because of this, an ancient star was shattered and became two worlds, and now Diaoyutai is the third. ”
The old village chief pointed to the soles of his feet: "This world is the shelter of the remnants of our gods, and we have become traitors to the gods, remnants of the mouths of the human race. We are not human inside and out. ”
"What does this have to do with my parents?" asked Dai Yunong.
Tian Shuhou glared at him: "What's the hurry?"
The old village chief took a puff of dry smoke and was silent for a long time before he said: "Later, a large number of gods were divided into several tribes and took root in this land, but the patriarch of the three sects prevented us from causing trouble, and let us strip ourselves of our divinity and become mortals. We had no choice but to do so, so we had Caotou Village and the other eight caves, and each cave had a heavenly official, who was actually the warden who was responsible for guarding the prisoners. ”
"Later, it was such a situation, after thousands of years, the descendants of you gods have gradually become mortals, no different from normal human races, but they still don't worry about the need to completely erase the divinity, so there are people in the three sects who sit in the cave sky, and the remnants of the gods are drawn out to fight the cave heaven is shattered, the heavenly officials are all dead, and the heavenly officials are dead, and the divinity in their hands is naturally gone. ”
Saying that, dozens of halos suddenly appeared in the old village chief's hands, and the old village chief explained, "These are the divinities that have been stripped away, and they are also the foundation of the grass head cave sky, and now there are only these left." ”
"Back then, your parents learned about the existence of these divinities, and they managed to find the divinity that belonged to your family, in a vain attempt to regain the way of heaven, this matter naturally did not escape the eyes of the old gentleman, and the old gentleman only appeared the result of the year in order not to disturb the patriarch of the three sects. ”
Tian Shuhou added at this time, "Don't underestimate your parents' behavior, his initiative can make Caotou Cave disappear at any time." In all matters involving the gods, the patriarchs of the three sects have always been ruthlessly erased. Zhan Xiaocheng returned to the world this time, and the end may not be good. ”
The old village chief pointed at Dai Yunong and said: "You have become the key, the key to the existence of Confucianism in Zhan Qiaocheng, and the key to whether Caotou Village can continue to exist." ”
"In fact, if Zhan Xiaocheng did not choose you temporarily, but as always, he appointed Du Yufu to become a preacher, maybe it would be convincing. Because Du Yufu was a local resident of the world from the beginning. ”
Dai Yunong asked, "Why does Mr. Zhan disobey the patriarch of the Three Sects?"
The old village chief replied: "This may be related to his academic lineage, in the dome of the world, the rules are too heavy and strict, and the rules and regulations are more like a cage. ”
Tian Shuhou patted Dai Yunong's thigh and comforted: "Your parents' death is deserved, but it has nothing to do with you. ”
"You can hate me, very village chief, hate everyone, it's okay, but the starting point is wrong, no matter what, it's wrong, even if you want to escape with the rest of the divinity now, I will kill you quietly. Tian Shuhou's face suddenly gloomy and said.
The old village chief coughed and scolded, "What do you do to scare a child?"
Dai Yunong was a little overwhelmed for a while, because he was not sure whether it was true or not, he just bowed his head and said nothing, he had a lot of questions, but he couldn't say it.
Tian Shuhou patted Dai Yunong on the shoulder and pulled him up. "Believe it or not, anyway, Uncle is here, Caotou Village is here, your parents are dead, or the old saying they deserve to die. Tian Shuhou doesn't know what to say, but this simple sentence is every word.
Dai Yunong clenched his fists, angry, unwilling, and wronged.
Tian Shuhou slapped out with a palm, Dai Yunong smashed into the grass mound, Tian Shuhou said indifferently: "I dare to teach you to practice boxing, and I dare to tell you the truth, because I, Tian Shuhou, stand upright, and I am not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door if I don't do anything wrong. ”
The old village chief shook his head helplessly, got up and pulled Dai Yunong out of the grass mound, and scolded Tian Shuhou: "What kind of cruel words do you put with a child? Yunong is an ignorant child? He doesn't understand reason? Need you talk more here?"
Dai Yunong took a deep breath and said nothing, there was anger but nowhere to vent, and there was unwillingness but unable to express it.
Looking at Dai Yunong's back, Tian Shuhou was even more angry, inexplicably a little annoyed, he was angry not that Dai Yunong had an estrangement from him since then, and that he had a mustard with Caotou Village, but that he was angry at his powerless decadence.
Without waiting for the old village chief to stop him, Tian Shuhou trotted a few steps and dragged Dai Yunong to swim away from the wind.
"It is said that sword cultivation is suave, so the warrior martial artist who practices boxing can be aggrieved?
How can you be afraid to punch?"
As soon as Tian Shuhou's voice fell, Dai Yunong had already appeared behind Sanshan before he knew it, Dai Yunong was no stranger to this position, and his parents died like this back then.
