Volume 3: The People of the Year Wild Land: Chang Le
The wind, without direction and purpose, blows gently over the streets like auspicious clouds, bringing a touch of coolness to people.
More than just the coolness, the wind carried a very strange smell into people's nostrils, like the smell of feces carrying rotting corpses and stirring together with blood.
Chang Le, a thin girl with a gray head and a dirty face, was blown by this wisp of breeze, and she couldn't help frowning, but Liu Chuang, a rough man on the ladder, couldn't help yelling at her below,
"Nails, what are you stunned about?"
Chang Le moved at this time, she looked around, then bent down to pick up the nail at her feet, and handed the nail tip to Liu Chuang, who was standing on the ladder.
Liu Chuang looked at the tip of the nail handed by Chang Le, and his face couldn't help but turn cold, but he didn't have a seizure, but deliberately pinched Chang Le's finger when he took the nail, and Chang Le reacted now, and a wisp of blush couldn't help but appear under his dusty face.
"I'm really embarrassed, this person in my family can't speak, and his brain is stupid, Young Master Zhao, you should be more responsible. The man took the nail and smiled at the fat man standing under the ladder.
The man just shook his head, then straightened his bulging belly, leaned towards Chang Le's side, and squeezed out a smile on his fat face that made his eyes see, he took Chang Le's hand, rubbed it gently, and then smiled at Liu Chuang on the ladder and said, "It's okay, it's okay, anyway, it's not just our family that repairs, Lao Liu, you continue." โ
"Alas. Liu Chuang's waist on the ladder bent slightly, and then turned his face with a smile, as if he hadn't noticed this scene at all, a green light appeared in his palm, and then he pressed this green light on the house he was repairing, and then he pressed the nail with his bare hands along the traction of the green light.
Chang Le didn't withdraw her hand, she let the fat man surnamed Zhao touch his hand, and then just buried his head a little, the light in his eyes was slightly dim, but more indifferently.
"It's raining on the blood clouds!Go and take shelter from the rain!!Otherwise, you'll be killed by that evil ghost!" Suddenly a bald head yelled, and then he hurriedly ran towards the place where he was sheltering from the rain with his head in his hands, and the fat man panicked when he heard it, and he hurriedly let go of the hand that grabbed the girl, and then took off his clothes and rolled towards the house.
The girl looked up, and there was no white cloud overhead, as the bald man shouted, it was a blood-colored cloud, and now it was raining.
The people on the street began to take off their clothes like the fat man and hurriedly ran towards a place where they could shelter from the rain, while Changle just stared blankly at the blood cloud in the sky until a piece of clothing obscured her vision.
Liu Chuang jumped down the ladder and anxiously blocked Chang Le's head with his plastered vest, "Gua Wazi, what are you stunned about?" โ
Liu Chuang said that, and ran into the room where the fat man had just entered, with the thin Chang Le in his arms.
The rain fell, and the rain under the blood cloud looked normal from the outside, and the transparent raindrops fell to the ground, squeezed, and then exploded in all directions, turning into a flower of water.
This is Bai Yujing, regardless of the inner and outer layers, this is Bai Yujing, the real Bai Yujing.
There was a lot of noise in the streets, and it was obvious that people didn't want to get caught in the rain, but they had no choice but to huddle with the rest of the people, because it was full of ruins.
The people here have lived here since a long, long time ago, so long that they don't know how long ago they lived here, there has never been any crisis here, they have been living in peace, gifted people can enter the place called "Neijing" to cultivate, to pursue immortality, and those people are called "immortals", the people in the white jade capital are proud of Neijing, and they are proud of the appearance of immortals in their families, in their eyes, the days will pass little by little, but yesterday, an accident happened.
A terrifying natural disaster suddenly appeared, and a huge door appeared in the sky, in the sea of clouds that would never dissipate, and at first, everyone thought it was the manifestation of the gods, but until the door, the black flames flew into the inner capital like a natural disaster that destroyed the world with the laughter of evil spirits, and people's hearts were shocked at that time.
Shocked by fear.
No one thinks that it is an existence in the inner capital, the inner capital is sacred, and that thing is ominous, how can such a thing be something in the white jade capital!
Sure enough, I don't know when, I don't know what the reason is, the black flame suddenly appeared in the place where people lived, instantly turning the surrounding houses into ashes, fortunately, the immortals in the inner capital also appeared, they protected the people, and under the gaze of the people, the evil ghost that summoned the black flame was in the air.
But the matter did not end, at the moment when the head of the evil ghost was beheaded by the sword-wielding great sword immortal, before the people had time to cheer, they saw the blood splashing out of the demon's body into the clouds, and at that moment, the clouds covering the sky above Bai Yujing all turned blood red.
The Immortals ignored the cloud, and they flew into the Inner Capital with the corpse of the demon, and the cloud stayed above them, and the sword-wielding immortal only said a word.
"It's okay, it's just a change of color, and it will come back after a rain, and you're quite healthy after drinking this rain." โ
It's just that this kind of frivolous tone, even if he is an immortal, this is unacceptable to the people in Bai Yujing, except for some crazy people who are almost fanatical to the level of immortality, the rest of the people choose not to touch, and after the rain is over, it is best for the clouds to change back.
"Grandma's! That damn thing is dead, and it won't stop! Destroyed so much of our family's property, if it weren't for the Immortal, I would have taken it in by now! It's so fucking disgusting now that they're all dead!"
The fat man looked at the sky dissatisfied, the anger in his small eyes, and he crossed his non-existent waist and cursed at the blood-colored clouds.
And those people around him bent down to flatter this man, and when the fat man heard this, his face bloomed with joy, and he pointed to the clouds, "You all scold me! Whoever scolds well, Young Master Ben will be rewarded!"
So, these people who hide from the rain under the same roof as the man surnamed Zhao are even more powerful, they point to the blood cloud and scold, all kinds of ugly words almost appear in their mouths, and they are the servants of the Zhao family, the richest family in Bai Yujing, they usually wear dog-like people in Bai Yujing, but now they are scolded for the money in the fat man's waist, and their hideous faces are still so "human-like dogs"
Chang Le's eyes were just open, looking ahead blankly, in the rain outside the house, several people were kneeling on the ground with tears on their faces, they were not crying, but laughing, they were laughing I didn't expect it to rain so soon.
They are the famous madmen in Bai Yujing who worship the immortals as if they were gods, and some of them face the sky and drink rain; Some of them kiss the earth and lick the rain from the ground with their mouths, and in their eyes, the immortal speaks the truth of the world, so these are very normal behaviors.
"You dogs!" "One of the people drinking outside suddenly raised his head, and he stared at Changle like a hungry wolf, "The immortals have said that this is the rain that can bring health! You dare not listen! I must let the immortals in the inner capital know about the existence of your group of dogs who are protected but don't trust the adults!"
"Grandma's!" the fat man scolded secretly, but he didn't intend to let the guy who pointed here and scolded, that kind of thing was really deadly, in their hearts, they were the messengers who maintained the identity of the immortals, insulting them and insulting the immortals was a concept, if there were fewer such madmen, he would have sent someone to clean up these guys, but the blame was that there were a lot of such guys, and there was also a guy at the level of the Yuan Infant who gathered them, which was the most troublesome.
"We just don't want to catch a cold, my son is usually pampered, he can't eat the cold, you know a fart!" the fat man replied impatiently, and then he angrily threw a piece of jade to a man next to him, and the man immediately smiled and lay down after receiving the jade, and the fat man sat down like this.
"And what about them? Are they pampered too?" the man scolded again, his tone even more aggressive.
"Childe, do you want to?" a man next to the fat man bent down and whispered beside the fat man, and made a gesture to his neck, the fat man glanced at him, and then waved his hand,
"It's okay, this young master hasn't reached the time to meet this kind of self-satisfied waste in general, the plan will go as originally planned, I will find a way to solve the loss, this time it's not just my Zhao family, those old foxes have their own losses, you continue to put pressure, this time is a big opportunity, we have to take the opportunity to pay tribute to Neijing, understand?"
"Well, the young master deserves to be the young master. โ
"That's natural, by the way, Zhaocai, go back and find me a few girls to send to my room. The fat man's eyes in his small eye sockets glanced at Chang Le who was squatting by the pillar, he looked at Chang Le's legs under his half-rotten pants because of poverty, and then looked at Chang Le's undeveloped chest, he licked his lips, "Don't be too old, it's better to be fifteen or sixteen years old, understand?"
The man named Zhaocai noticed the fat man's gaze, and then looked at Chang Le, he smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, young master." โ
And Chang Le didn't know that she was being remembered, she just looked at those fanatics who were scolding and drinking water in different directions, she was a little envious of these people, of course, she maintained the so-called trust in the immortals, on the contrary, for them, the girl had only one emotion in her heart, disgust.
For Chang Le, the so-called immortals are just moths on the ground.
Chang Le's hand quietly reached into the sleeve, the sleeve was two layers, this is Chang Le tore off the cloth on his pants and quietly sewed it into his sleeve, this is the secret place where she quietly hid things.
Chang Le's hand groped inside, and there were several copper plates, a very old rag doll, and a blood-colored stone covered with flame patterns.
Chang Le was secretly happy in her heart, she liked the cloud, she liked the cloud to create him, it was he who cared about himself, he was not a person, by the way, he let himself remember that he was ...... Qiu Suming.
Qiu Suming, hehe, Chang Le remembers.
