Volume 2: Red Dust Makes a Mess Chapter 126: Black Lives Matter
The clouds are like the moon, and the water is cool and the breeze is like autumn.
Lying quietly in the middle of the night, the insects are exhausted, and the clear moon rises out of the mountain and the light enters the door.
The moon rose quietly at night, casting a silvery light.
Barren mountains and mountains, lonely men and widows live together in the world, if the beautiful girl around you is afraid of the cold and lets you sleep with her in her arms, do you want to refuse?
It's a tough choice.
Xia Zhiming didn't know the dirty things in Zhao Zhiman's mind, and after eating and drinking, he said to Zhao Zhi: "Thank you." β
"It should. β
Zhao Jiao lay on the big stone on all fours, without any scruples about the image, and his hands and feet were paved with a "big" character.
Xia Zhiming sighed faintly: "When I was a child, I often lay down like this and watched the stars......"
"Well, me too. β
Zhao Tan agreed in a daze.
The moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time, I don't know if the people in the world in the previous life are the same moon as they see?
Xia Zhiming's eyes seem to be black pearls inlaid at night, translucent and moving. The upturned nose is slightly shrugged, showing some little playfulness.
Purple and black hair fluttering quietly in the breeze.
The cold wind blew the wilderness, and when I looked out from the stones, under the blue-black sky, there were several deserted villages in the distance and near, and there was no trace of life.
β...... Every time people and my brother perform martial arts, my father won't let me watch it, I read and read in the house, and listen to the fight outside......"
Tonight, the moonlight is shattered, and the past is quietly let fly, sprinkled between every dry grass.
As the pearl of the Xia family, Xia Zhiming also has her own troubles, she is like a canary in a cage, wanting to soar in the sky, but she is restricted everywhere - poor born in the emperor's family.
Xia Zhiming was full of emotion and whispered a lot of words.
β...... That's why I escaped, right, what about you?"
Xia Zhiming stood up, only to see Zhao Zhi lying on the big stone and actually snoring.
"You!"
Xia Zhiming was so happy that he grabbed Zhao Zhi's ears and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Zhao Cheng shouted in pain, and shouted, "What are you doing?"
Xia Zhiming crossed his hands on his hips and said angrily: "Are you listening to me!"
"Listened to it......"
"You're all snoring......"
"Isn't it the story of the eldest lady who wants to fight the sword rivers and lakes, hoe the strong and help the weak...... I know, I know, I said, Miss Xia, you don't want to practice in the family, you have to come here to endure hardships, isn't it idle?"
Xia Zhiming said: "What do you know! My generation of monks, they should be chivalrous and righteous and defend the people of Limin, how can they not save them when they die?"
After a pause, he said, "What about you? Don't you also leave other divisional tasks and pick this drudgery?"
Zhao Qian jumped off the rock, touched his nose and said, "I'm different from you, I have something to do in the south......
Xia Zhiming sighed: "It's a pity that I still couldn't save the missing people in Nanxiang Road. β
Zhao Xuan said: "Let's kill the old immortal, and we can be regarded as giving an explanation to those villagers." β
Xia Zhiming said indignantly: "It's all to blame for these disciples of the Four Seas Gang colluding with the tree demons, and when I succeed in my cultivation, I will kill one by one when I see this kind of evil cultivation, and I must kill the injustice of the world!"
Zhao Zhi looked at Xia Zhiming's resolute face, sneered, and shook his head.
"What are you laughing at? Isn't it ridiculous?"
Xia Zhiming glared at Zhao Zhi angrily, she also said this to her father, but Xia Zhengyang only shook his head and smiled, noncommittal.
Zhao Zhiming's reaction in front of him was the same as his father's, which made Xia Zhiming feel that his dignity had been insulted - he just wanted to seek justice, why did everyone laugh at him?
Zhao Qian smiled contemptuously: "I said, you think too simply-"
Without waiting for Xia Zhiming to refute, Zhao Zhi looked directly into her eyes: "Xia Zhiming, do you know that the world is unfair, the things of the people who fish and flesh, and even the murder and robbery of treasures, where is the root cause?"
"Where?"
Xia Zhiming was puzzled.
Zhao Zhi said disdainfully: "The bane grows in your big familiesββ"
As he spoke, Zhao Zhi pointed to Xia Zhiming's head and said, "And your Xia family, and my Lingxi faction, are all sinners of cholera in this Wenyang Mansion!"
"You talk nonsense!"
Xia Zhiming said angrily: "My Xia family is kind and charitable in Jibei, and the people are all attached to it, and they all praise my Xia family's kindness, how can you be allowed to slander it?"
Zhao Zhi laughed, Xia Zhiming was still too tender.
Although the eldest lady of the Xia family is precocious and has been in the rivers and lakes for "many years", she is still ignorant of the situation in the world, and only says that the sinister in the world is only because "the wicked are in charge", and she does not know the reason why the wicked are evil.
Zhao Qian said: "Two years ago, I went to Shuiyunfang City to ......"
Ignoring Xia Zhiming's willow eyebrows, Zhao Zhi said to himself.
"On the way back, I met a robber, his name was Shi Qi......"
Zhao Cheng talked about his experience of being killed and seized by Shi Qi, from setting up a phantom killing array to pretending to be dead and killing himself, it was extremely dangerous.
"You can't eat five tripods in life, and you can't cook five tripods in death, Shi Qi said such a thing before he died, which shows that his ambition is not small. β
Xia Zhiming frowned and said, "Even so, this Shi Qi also has a way to die, why are you telling me this?"
Zhao Qian said impatiently: "Miss Xia, have you ever thought about why Shi Qi didn't do a good disciple of the Fuguang Sect, but instead wanted to do a casual cultivation and do the business of robbing the house?"
"Why?"
Zhao Qian sneered and said, "Miss Xia, have you ever had the experience of being detained by a law enforcement disciple for failing to complete a sect task? Have you experienced the past of cultivating the True Pavilion to rub the jade slip and being asked for a bribe by the senior brother guarding the door? Have you ever been in and out of the Spirit Plantation Garden, and everything you get has to be exploited by your brothers and sisters?"
Seeing Xia Zhiming stunned on the spot, Zhao Zhi said in a fierce voice: "No! You Xia Zhiming can't have a sect task, even if you can't complete the family task, no one will deduct your Miss Xia's spirit stone!"
"Your Xia Jiayu is as vast as a sea of smoke, and if you want to learn any exercise, you will have an old servant in the family to serve you!"
"Your Xia family regards you as the pearl of your palm, as long as you are the eldest lady of the Xia family for one day, there will be countless people who flatter you and pray!"
"How could you possibly understand Shi Qi's little loose cultivator?"
"How can you possibly understand this grass mustard who is struggling to live and die for a mixed meal?"
"How can you possibly understand this heinous, murderous and treasure-robbing scoundrel in your mouth?"
Xia Zhiming was speechless after saying this, and Zhao Zhi continued: "Shi Qi just went to the medicine garden to pick two fifty-year-old Lingxiao flowers, and he was extorted from ten spirit stones, and Shi Qi was expelled from the sect for the crime of disrespecting the teacher and beating each other. Miss Xia, if you are Shi Qi and you are blackmailed for a spirit stone for no reason, will you agree?"
Xia Zhiming said dumbfoundedly: "I don't agree." β
Zhao Qian said: "If you are Shi Qi and you were expelled from the sect because you couldn't get a bribe, but the senior brother who asked for a bribe is safe and sound, will you think it's unfair?"
"Unfair ......"
Zhao Zhi Zhengse said: "In this case, what else is there not to understand? The ants are still stealing their lives, Shi Qi has been expelled from the disciples of the small sect, and he has seen too many injustices in the world, he is penniless, and he needs spirit stones everywhere, what other choice is there at this time? Sell yourself as a slave? Miss Xia, sell yourself to a big family as a slave, do you say you want to do it?"
Loose cultivation is a very pitiful existence in the cultivation world, many people think, loose cultivation, unrestrained, neither the discipline of the sect, nor the task of the sect, but also the four seas, how happy?
It would be a mistake to think so.
For the monks, the sect is not just a shackle to action, on the contrary, it is the backing for life.
The existence of famous factions is like the establishment of a previous life, in popular parlance, also called "people in the system".
As a disciple of the Lingxi faction, if Zhao Xuan is killed and robbed of the treasure, showing the Lingxi nameplate can even play a certain deterrent role, even if the disciple of the Lingxi faction is unfortunately killed, there will be a disciple of the battle hall to avenge him, as long as the enemy is in Qizhou for a day, he will not die.
Secondly, the general sect will distribute spirit stone pills to disciples every month, although it is not much, but it is also a lot of income for poor students.
Scattered cultivators are alone, and if they want to obtain resources, there is no other way than to sell their lives. Either rob the house like Shi Qi, or sell yourself into a big family as a slave for hundreds of years, or go to the Demon Beast Valley to hunt and obtain resources. And most of the Demon Beast Mountain Range is controlled by various sects - if you want to enter it, it will cost you another amount of money.
Again, taking Qizhou as an example, there are checkpoints between the various prefectures, if there is no passage hall, or if you are not walking with the sect master, the tolls that want to flow between the mansions will require a lot of spirit stones-a big sect disciple like Zhao Yuan, because of the identity of Lingxi students, there is no problem at all in entering and leaving the mansions. But when it comes to Sanxiu, all kinds of tricks and tricks are absolutely indispensable.
Not to mention going in and out of various provinces, that is, between the same provinces, if you want to enter Wenyang City, or even a trading place like Shuiyunfang City, it is difficult to move an inch without spirit stones.
Even if you spend a lot of effort to get a bunch of animal skins and beast meat in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and you want to enter the Fang Market to trade, there is no spirit stone?
Finally, and most importantly, without the guidance of a master in casual cultivation, it is inevitable that self-cultivation will not go wrong, and it is rare for disciples of the big sect to go crazy, but it is not uncommon for casual cultivation.
In addition to this, the casual cultivators are also facing an even more terrible thing - filling the ravines.
There are countless unexplored secret realms in the cultivation realm, and in order to be safe, the famous factions will always recruit some poor casual cultivators to take the lead in the secret realm, or coercion and temptation, or pit and abduction, and those who enter the secret realm are often swallowed by evil spirits, and in the end, there is not one in ten.
This is the dilemma faced by casual meditation.
This is the fate of most of the scattered cultivators in the Huaxia Cultivation Realm.
Miserable, desolate, helpless.
There are only a handful of loose cultivators like Xie Ting'an who come and go freely and kill all directions.
Seeing that Xia Zhiming didn't answer, Zhao Zhi asked, "You say, is the tragedy of Shi Qi's life caused by the Fuguang Sect?"
"Count...... Right. β
Zhao Qian said coldly: "Is it because of the Fuguang Sect? Could it be that the atmosphere of the small sect asking for bribes and chaotic order was formed by himself?"
