Chapter 40 Send me to the Nine Demon Slayer Domain
After a month of recuperation, Zuo Lan's wound was basically healed. During this time, Zuo Jingtian never came to see him, and even handed over all the business of the City Lord's Mansion to another son to take care of. In the past, when my father was not there, the city lord's mansion was his final say, and he had always been high, as if he was the deputy city lord, and his ears were about to become calloused when he listened to the flattering words every day. But now, everyone except his mother saw him hiding far away, as if he had the plague on him.
He is now a disabled person and should be cared for more than normal people, but the attitude of everyone pushing the wall, not only does not care, but also destroys it vigorously, adding another layer of frost to his injured heart.
Now that his arms are gone, his front teeth are gone, his father's love is gone, and his status is gone, he feels that he is a wasted person, a wasted person who is struggling to survive.
He didn't want to spend the rest of his life without dignity like this, so he decided to talk to his father.
Early that morning, he went to the palace outside the city, and when he arrived at the door of his father's room, he was stopped by the guards. Before he could explain the reason, the guards told him that the lord did not want to see him and asked him to go back.
Zuo Lan suddenly felt five thunderbolts, his head was blank, and he couldn't respond for a long time. It seems that the father has completely abandoned him. If it were in the past, he would definitely rush in to find his father's theory, but now he can't muster up the courage, he is afraid that his father will beat him to death, and he will really kill him.
He was like a frosted eggplant, drooping his head and walking down the mountain, but he didn't expect to meet Meng Degang on the way. Meng Degang had the same illness as him, so he didn't avoid him, and said hello to him.
Zuo Lan looked lonely and said, "How are you doing lately?"
Meng Degang let out a long sigh and said, "It's already my fate to be alive." What about you?"
Zuo Lan took a long breath and said, "I'd rather not be alive." ”
Meng Degang said in his heart, then you can die now!
Zuo Lan shook his head and said, "It's not an estrangement, it's a chasm." ”
Meng Degang said: "It'll be fine." After all, you are the son of the city lord, and when he is angry, he will forgive you. ”
Zuo Lan shook his head again and said, "It's useless, I know my father too well, he really despaired of me this time, and he will never forgive me in this life." ”
Meng Degang has also been injured recently and needs to be comforted, so he didn't bother to comfort him anymore, so he said, "Then what are you going to do?"
Zuo Lan looked up into the distance, his eyes were half-narrowed, his gaze became vicious, and he said coldly: "I have figured it out now, it is better to ask for others than for yourself." The reason why I have fallen here is all thanks to the little monkey, and I will repay him a thousand times the suffering I have suffered today, and I will be ashamed!"
Meng Degang was tired of hearing this, some time ago when he was constipated on the top of the mountain, he recited this sentence every day, but the shame was not washed away, but became thicker and thicker. He laughed secretly in his heart, and said, "He has now opened the void and revealed the seal, and you are not his opponent at all!"
Zuo Lan gritted his teeth and said: "As long as I am willing, there is nothing in this world that I can't do, and I also want to become a monk." ”
Meng Degang thought he was insane. I actually chatted with a madman for a long time, and I chatted deliciously, and I couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said, "You must be ashamed of blood." ”
Zuo Lan said: "Are you sarcastic about me?"
Meng Degang said: "No, where there is a will, there is a way, maybe you will succeed." ”
Zuo Lan said: "Not maybe, but certainly." I'm going to the Nine Demon Slayers. ”
Meng Degang felt that he was really crazy, and exclaimed, "You want to fall into the devil's path?"
Zuo Lan sneered and said, "The current Qingliang City annoys me more than the Demon Dao to me. The right path is the way, and the devil's path is also the way, as long as I live happily, I care about the right way and the devil's way. ”
Meng Degang said: "The point is that you will not live happily. Although it is said that the practice of Nine Slaughter Magic is basically not limited by qualifications, but to experience nine steaming and nine boiling, the pain of ten thousand insects devouring the heart, and repeated every year, it is not that I scare you, it is really more terrible than a thousand cuts, and those who can endure the past are really not people, they are animals, and they may not be able to pick out one in ten thousand. ”
Zuo Lan said: "You think I'm a soft bone?"
Meng Degang said in his heart, it's not that I think, but I see it. He said: "I see that you have fine skin and tender meat, you have been pampered since you were a child, and you have food and drink in Qingliang City, so why bother to practice yourself?"
Zuo Lan snorted coldly and said, "Let me tell you, although I have fine skin and tender meat, my bones are very hard, I am just afraid of death, but I am not afraid of pain." What is that pain? It's just a drop in the bucket for my heartache. ”
Meng Degang looked at his iron-clad appearance, if he hadn't seen him crying wolf with his own eyes, he would have almost believed it. He licked his lips and said, "Good luck then." ”
Zuo Lan said: "I want to ask you to do me a favor!"
Meng Degang was stunned: "What's the hurry?"
Zuo Lan said: "Send me to the Nine Demon Slayer Domain." ”
Meng Degang was startled and said, "My Young Master Zuo, you can practice yourself, but don't come to practice me." It doesn't matter if a mortal goes to the Nine Slaughter Demon Domain, a monk like me goes, if he is discovered by the people of the Nine Slaughter Palace, it will be to see one and kill another, although I have not had a good time during this time, but I still want to live for two more years. ”
Zuo Lan said: "Just send me to the edge of the Demon Domain, you don't need to go in." ”
Meng Degang said: "That's not good, the risk is too great, and you can't close your eyes when you die." ”
Zuo Lan smiled, slowly took out a brocade box from his arms, opened the lid, and there were two pearl-like white beads inside. "When I was young, I was playing in my father's room, and I found something like this under his bed, and I remember that my father found that he had lost something, and he was going crazy, and even the doorkeeper was beheaded by him, but I just didn't tell him. Later I learned that this is a guide bead, which is of no use to me, but for you, it may be different. As long as you send me over, I will give it to you. ”
Meng Degang's eyes lit up suddenly, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said, "Is it okay to send it to the edge of the Demon Domain?"
Zuo Lan nodded and said, "That's right!"
Meng Degang grabbed the brocade box, put it in his arms, and said, "Deal!" Your father is preparing to break through the golden bucket these days, and I will send you over when he retreats." ”
Zuo Lan said: "Then it's decided." ”
The Nine Slaughter Demon Domain is tens of thousands of miles away from Qingliang City, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.
Four days later, Zuo Jingtian was really in retreat, and Meng Degang set off with Zuo Lan with a dragon lin horse. After trekking through mountains and rivers all the way, about eight or nine days, it suddenly became clear in front of me, it was an endless grassland, with withered grass swaying, thousands of miles.
