Chapter 214: Just to Live
"Actually...... Murong Youzuo, this child, I still value it more!It's a pity, he was killed like this!" The monster sighed outside, as if he was sorry for Murong Youzuo's death.
But in fact, the first half of Murong Youzuo's life was calculated by him, just to cultivate a "flesh" for himself!
Murong Cheng listened to the free talk of "himself" outside, what could he do but be angry? At most, he blamed himself! He understood that maybe the Murong clan and the Xuanzhen Kingdom would be destroyed in his own hands!
"But he's dead, he's dead, it's just going to take another eighty years for the sequences to decide the winner...... I can't wait! Besides...... This one called Mo Wunian really has some meaning!" The monster completely sealed Murong Cheng in the coffin, including his voice!
......
In a city about 300,000 miles away from Liang Wu City, where mortals were located, in the lively market inside, Zheng Qian, the butcher of Zheng who had always sold meat and had a good voice, closed his stall in advance.
Because it was just over the New Year, and it was the Lantern Festival, a group of people were in a hurry to sell some meat here at him, and the family got together to live such a festival, so they also ran around the place!
So today, Zheng Qian's butcher stall business will only be better. Whether it was persuasion from peers or a few lady selling vegetables to keep him, he just smiled honestly, and then said: "Today is the festival, I want to have a dumpling with my family!"
When he said this, the outsiders were even more puzzled, for there was no one else in his family who had to go to other places except his wife and children, and he himself often bought and sold here, and he himself often met with them...... I closed the stall just to go back to accompany my wife? Outsiders really can't figure it out.
No one asked, but he took the meat that had been cut in the morning and kept it with mulberry paper, and carefully gave a pack to each of the people who had been on this street for more than ten years.
The crowd was holding the meat he had given for no reason, and they became more and more puzzled. It was as if he were going to part with them...... But the crowd did not believe it, but believed that he would come here early tomorrow morning to set up a stall
Everyone was really puzzled, so they had to look at each other one by one, and then shook their heads!
However, many people also miss him better, because although he was born tall and big, and his face is also a little fierce, but whoever has a little difficulty on weekdays will receive some favors from him!
Zheng Qian did not rush home first, but walked to another street, pulled a few feet of cloth, and then slowly walked towards the house, he wanted to make a dress for his son, who was just five years old! If in normal times, he would not have deliberately done so much again.
Then he saw that there was no one around, he looked down at his hand, and there was really an "eight" on it, and just now he received a message that the battle for the sequence was about to start in advance!
As a monk, he shouldn't have anything to do with mortals, but he married a woman from an ordinary family like a mortal, and also had a son, and their family of three lived an ordinary life.
Of course he ...... I also enjoy this kind of life, there is no dispute, there is no need to cheat me, just set up a meat stall every day to make a living!
It's just that this time, because of his identity as a sequence, he is afraid that he will have to leave them. Thinking about his five-year-old son, he smiled slightly.
It's just that when he was about to turn an alley and walk to his house, he met a person he wanted to see the most.
This man was wearing a tattered yellow robe, his hair was unkempt, and his beard was sparse and unkempt!
"Huangshanke, the last person I want to see right now is you! I know what you mean by coming to me...... But please allow me to spend this day with my family!I'll go with you again to stir up strife!" Zheng Qian's tone sounded a little tough and threatening at first, but in fact it was a little more pleading!
Huangshan Ke was a little surprised when he saw it, in his memory, when he was fighting in the sequence, it was Zheng Qian who killed people the most simply and ruthlessly, who would have thought that such a person would act and talk in front of him like this!
In fact, in secret, Huang Shanke observed him for several days, and there were a few scoundrels who played scoundrels on Zhengqian meat stall and paid more than a dozen catties of meat on credit, but he was accompanied by a smile during the whole process.
Thinking of this, Huang Shanke asked him: "In the past, you were the most ruthless in killing people! You can endure a few scoundrels in front of you? It's the first time I don't understand you. ”。
When he heard this, he smiled honestly and said, "People should know how to be grateful." No matter how bad a person is, if you help him three or four points, he will know how good you are!"
"It's hard to believe that these words will come out of your mouth!" Huang Shanke looked at the rough man in front of him who was scratching the back of his head, and he really couldn't connect the current with the past!
"That's right...... I'm going to have a dumpling meal with my family, so come with me!"
"Okay!"
Even Zheng Qianzhen was just a butcher who sold meat, and he was never a ruthless monk! Hearing that he invited him to his house to eat dumplings, Huang Shanke was a little surprised, but he hardly hesitated too much, he nodded in agreement.
As a butcher who sells meat, Zheng Qian's family background is quite solid and he lives in a rather leisurely courtyard, but as far as he is a monk who has survived the spiritual calamity, the residence he lives in now is still a bit shabby.
Right under the mulberry tree in the courtyard, he
wife, a woman with an ordinary face, but rather a small jasper, was sewing and mending a piece of clothing. And next to her, a five-year-old boy was babbling and reciting the "Three Character Sutra", a book of learning enlightenment among mortals.
"Why are you back so early today?" The woman, who was wearing a simple green dress, got up and smiled at him when she saw him come back and said.
"I miss you, especially the dumplings you wrapped!"
"If you want to eat, I'll wrap it ......up for you every day in the future."
When the woman heard Zheng Qian say this, her eyes were full of gentle smiles and scolded him, and he also laughed when he heard it.
"Daddy, Daddy, I memorized several ancient poems today, and I want to recite them to you!"
"Really, I'm amazing!"
When the boy saw him return, he seemed very happy and busily showed him what he had learned, and he touched his head.
The woman also asked him when she saw the sloppy Huangshan guest again, but Zheng Qian smiled and said that she was a guest and she didn't ask again.
Soon Zheng Qian's family sat around and was busy making dumplings. There are vegetarian and meat fillings...... Even when Huangshanke ate it, he didn't think that the dumplings were delicious. But looking at the happy appearance of Zheng Qian's family, he felt that this dumpling was particularly fragrant.
So he ate four or five bowls in a row.
"Uncle Sloppy can really eat!" The child is always childish, seeing that he can eat like this, Zheng Qian's son smiled at him.
He wasn't angry, but remembered the candy man he bought for Zheng Quan's son when he came in his storage bag, and with a move of his hand, it appeared in his hand. The child was amazed and thought he was a trickster.
And he also smiled slightly, and smiled at him gently: "Uncle, I am a trickster! I will teach you ...... when I have time."
The heat made the children's faces happy, and they clapped their hands happily.
After eating dumplings like this, the woman took wine for Zheng Qian and Huangshanke very interestingly, and went to buy some snacks for them, and then walked out with the child.
The two of them also started drinking, like friends who had not seen each other for many years, chatting about which place was better and better and how to do it, and how to do it, as well as which local magistrate was a county lord and a confused official! How many confused cases were sentenced...... Let them talk about everything, but they just don't talk about spiritual matters!
It was not until it was getting late, and it was early in the morning of the second person, and the wine in the jug was empty, that the two stopped all their words.
They didn't speak anymore, they just looked at each other in silence! It wasn't until Zheng Qian's wife and children walked in that the dreary atmosphere was broken. It was Zheng Qiancai who slowly spoke: "I'm going to go to a distant business with my friend......! It's going to be a long time coming!".
The woman didn't speak, just nodded, although her husband was a rough man, but he treated her very well!
As if feeling that what he said was inappropriate, Zheng Qian continued: "That's right! Under the mulberry tree in our yard, I also buried a jar of gold, which will be enough for your son to study in the future, and it should be enough to support you for a lifetime." I should have been going for a long, long time ...... this long trip."
The woman sensed the contradiction in his words! First of all, as a butcher, he probably sold meat for five or six lifetimes, and he was afraid that he would not be able to save a pot of gold! Besides, if there was gold, then the family would not have to worry about food and clothing, so why did he still say that he wanted to go out to do business?
Before marrying him, she was also a woman from a scholarly family, although her family was in the middle of the road, but she had also read some books, and her vision was broad, and when he said this, she felt that he was lying.
But she didn't show it, but only said to him: "Then I hope that no matter where you are in the future, you will remember me and Liu'er." ”。
Liu'er was their son's name, and before they were married, he told her that he would not go to a far place one day, but that the day he would go would be more than eighty years later......
Hearing him say this, she thought he was telling jokes to make fun of him, but now that she thinks about it, the attitude he said at the beginning seems to be true.
"Didn't you say you'd leave in more than eighty years?"
"If only it were possible...... I wanted to too, but now I have to go!"
"So you're not in business?"
The woman looked at Zheng Quan with clear eyes, but he didn't dare to look at her eyes and lowered his head.
After a while, the woman said again: "I just hope that wherever you are going, you will remember me and Liu'er, and you must come back here too! I will wait for you!".
The woman's tone was a little more serious, and Zheng Quanqian didn't intend to pay attention to her, but walked outside without turning his head, but from time to time he would look back at the woman and the child! But in the end, when he turned back for the seventh time, because he was separated by an alley, he could no longer see them.
"Isn't this Zheng Da Butcher? I haven't touched the meat you gave me on credit that day...... Doesn't that stink and spoil? Or ...... Are you okay, give us some credit?"
"Yes, brother, I can support you!"
"Hahahaha......"
A few people came over with hippie smiling faces on the opposite side, and they were the same scoundrels who had been taking credit at Zheng Qian's meat stall.
It's just that this time, Zheng Qian didn't say anything grateful, but directly stretched out his hand, and then grabbed it in the air, and one of them exploded
It turned into a blood mist, and when the other few people saw it, they were so frightened that they were about to flee without possessing their bodies! They intuitively felt that the evil ghost in front of them was not Zheng Butcher at all.
The Zheng butcher they know is a "good person", he likes everything, he is honest, but he is also very easy to bully!
In the end, these people didn't take a step, and they followed in the footsteps of the first person in a few steps.
Huang Shanke said to Zheng Qian: "This is like your style!"
After Zheng Qian killed these people, the cruel gaze in his eyes was replaced by a little gentleness, and he said: "It's not my style of acting! It's that I give them a year to rehabilitate themselves...... But on weekdays, they are used to fish and meat in the country, and they probably can't change anything! I'm leaving, so I can't keep them to continue to do evil!".
After hearing this, Huangshanke had a little more surprise in his eyes. Indeed, he has also seen the actions of these scoundrels in the past few days, they are either stealing chickens and dogs, or bullying the weak and afraid of bullying the township, and even killed an old beggar begging along the street the day before yesterday.
"You're really different from what you used to be......"
"Yes, maybe. What about Lan Changge, in fact, with your relationship, you should go to him to deal with me together!"
"No, it's enough to kill you and me!"
Speaking of Lan Changge, Huang Shanke's expression became complicated, and the changes in his mood were all under Zheng Qian's eyes, but he didn't ask again.
But he added, "Then you can try, but for the sake of my wife and children, I must kill you, because there is a word in my son's name, and my wife wants me to stay with them forever!"
"Then I hope it's you who wins!" After Huang Shanke finished speaking, he brazenly slapped a palm at Zheng Qian.
This palm looks very ordinary, and the palm wind that comes out is only a few stones, and he doesn't want to make a palm from a monk of his level at all!
But soon, he also came out of the spell in his palm, and a big knife appeared in his hand, and suddenly slashed at him!
The power of this sword alone seemed to be that even this mortal city would be instantly wiped out, but the power was concentrated and controlled by him very well, and it was only aimed at Huangshan Ke alone!
Clang!
The palm print was in contact with the knife, but the blade was broken, and Zheng Qian himself was beaten and spit out a mouthful of blood and was seriously injured.
"You're slacking! Actually, I've seen you...... You're still a monk of the Second Tribulation of the Soul, I'm just you slacking off! Among the original few people, you are one of the more threatening to me!"
"Hahahaha...... There are only a dozen of them! Don't look at some people who are in a low realm, but which one of them is good at stubble? I am indeed slack, and I have not even practiced in the past 50 years! By the way, after I die, if you really don't die, take care of one or two of my wives and children for me!"
Hearing Zheng Qian's words, Huang Shanke nodded solemnly, and then ended up with his life
It's just that before and after killing Zheng, he can't feel happy at all in his heart. He only got along with him for one day before Zheng Qian, and he had everything in plain and dull eyes, not for anything else...... also because he can eat such fragrant dumplings, he is a little envious of him.
He prefers to really be an ordinary friend with Zheng Qian, and then eat and drink and chat every day......
But it's a pity, that's their fate, and all the blind means are just for a better life.
And in order to live, he naturally can't slack off for a moment! And what is Zheng Qian? He is naturally slack, from the moment he decides to be an ordinary mortal, it must not be him who is destined to live to the end.
But Huangshanke was a little envious of him, envious of his dull and free life in the first fifty years.
Boom! boom......
A few thunderbolts suddenly appeared in the sky and reflected the face of Huangshanke, he was still sloppy, but he was a little more sad and bleak in his eyes than when he first came to Zheng Qian.
Looking at Zheng Qian's corpse, he said again: "Who doesn't want to live well...... It's just that our fate is like that of Gu worms, and everything is just for survival! If anyone is tired of killing and cheating, in fact, he will lose!"
Speaking of this, he closed his eyes again, he thought of Lan Changge, and also remembered the other Lu Banxian who he had visited and raised orphans, Chen Guanxin, who had accepted his apprentice, and Chen Quan in front of him, and he sighed three times in a row.
"You killed Zheng Qian, right?" It's just that at some point, Zheng Qian's wife, a woman in a simple green Luo dress, stood behind him with Liu'er.
Huangshanke naturally wanted to talk to her about the answer, or simply nodded. But in the end, under the woman's unusually calm gaze, he panicked, and he deliberately turned his head away from looking at him.
But the woman said word by word: "You are immortals, right? Actually, Zheng Qian is an immortal, and I also know that I am not stupid at all!
For some reason, when Huang Shanke heard this, he felt a little sad in his heart, and he said to her seriously: "Do you want him to come and kill me if he is successful in cultivation?"
He looked at Liu'er again and said, "Remember my uncle's name, my name is Huangshanke!"
And Liu'er, a pair of eyes that belong to the child should be clear, some are just resentful!
