Chapter 3: A Night to Remember
Well, incense, really fragrant.
The old man sniffed for a while before he removed his nose, and out of nowhere he found a set of white clothes, put them next to the water tank, and said, "Put on your clothes and come with me." ”
Qian Bufeng was ready to be eaten, but suddenly saw the old man come over with a set of clothes, and asked him to put them on, he was stunned, and then wondered: "Aren't you going to eat me? Why, don't you eat it?"
The old man turned his head suddenly, a sad smile appeared on his ugly face, a terrible look flashed in his eyes, and he said hoarsely: "Jiji, do you want me to eat you?"
His terrifying expression and penetrating eyes, coupled with this hoarse and gloomy tone, frightened Qian Bufeng into a moment, and hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, and said, "No, no, no!"
The old man restrained his terrifying expression, turned away, and said, "Then quickly put on your clothes and come with me." ”
Qian Bufeng dared to disobey the slightest, and quickly wanted to stand up and put on his clothes, but after using it to earn it, he found that he couldn't move. So I could only bite the bullet and say, "Hey, old ....... Old Demon Magician, I can't seem to move yet. ”
The old man paused, smiled, and said to himself, "I forgot, the fixation technique I gave you has not yet been solved." Saying that, he stretched out his thin and long right hand, stretched out his fingers towards Wang Fusheng, and shouted in a low voice: "Solution." Then he raised his feet and continued to walk slowly.
Qian was not free suddenly, but he was not used to it for a while, and his hands and feet suddenly stretched out, and a large splash of water was made, and the materials in the water fell all over the ground. He stuck out his tongue secretly, and when he saw that the old man had not looked back, he quickly put on the white suit that had been wetted a little, and then followed.
The old man turned forward a few times, walked a little longer, went up a low hill, and finally stood up halfway up the mountainside, with his hands behind his back, looking straight ahead, and silently.
At this time, the sun was setting, and the remnants of the sunset fell on his somewhat dumb and speechless back, which turned out to be a little desolate.
Qian Bufeng looked at him a little pitiful, and his heart was a little unbearable, so he couldn't help but take a few steps forward curiously, and looked around, only to see that there was a tomb standing alone in front of him.
His old and cloudy gaze fell firmly on the lonely grave, and his vicissitudes of life were full of longing and sorrow.
Under the afterglow of the sunset, in front of the lonely grave on the low hill, Qian Bufeng looked at the back of the silent rickety, and his heart suddenly swelled with infinite desolation.
At this moment, he was full of sympathy for this old man, he seemed to have forgotten that this old man was a "perverted magician who wants to eat people", he couldn't help but ask curiously: "I think what is buried here must be the most important person in your life." ”
The old man's body seemed to stiffen, and after a while, he raised his head to look at the sinking sun, sighed, and said in his hoarse voice, "Not bad." Buried here are my wife and son. ”
Qian Bufeng's heart sank and he didn't speak. Because he doesn't know what kind of language in this world can dissolve this grief that goes deep into the bone marrow. He looked at the pitiful and helpless back in front of him, his eyes turned red, and then he couldn't bear to look at it anymore, looked away, and quietly looked at the blood-red sunset in the distance.
I don't know how long it took, the old man suddenly turned around, glanced up and down at Qian Bufeng, and muttered: "If I hadn't met that animal that day, my little Thor would have grown so tall, and my favorite little Honghong wouldn't have ........" Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped, looked up at the sunset that was about to sink into the mountain, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and said: "That animal has been hungry for so many days, and it should come out to forage for food." ”
Saying this, he raised his feet and stepped down on the low hill, and said to Qian Bufeng, who was silently following him, without looking back: "Young man, what's your name?"
Qian Bufeng replied truthfully: "My name is Qian Bufeng." ”
The old man didn't speak, but walked for a while, then suddenly stopped, and said, "Can you do something for me?"
Qian Bufeng was a little puzzled, but still said: "Yes, as long as I can do it." ”
The old man smiled and said, "You can do it." After a while I died, he buried my bones with my wife and son. ”
Qian Bufeng was shocked in his heart, and said: "I see that you are strong and vigorous, how can you die?
The old man made no reply, but walked on.
Qian Bufeng didn't answer when he saw him, and he didn't ask questions, but only followed him.
After walking for about two hours, the sky gradually got dark, there was no moon or stars in the sky, the forest was so dark that there was no way to see the road, and the old man did not know where to find an oil lamp, and by the dim light of the fire, he still walked unhurriedly.
After walking for another hour, I saw him stop and blow out the oil lamp, Qian Bufeng suddenly felt that it was dark in front of him, and he couldn't see anything, and it was boundless darkness as far as the eye could see.
In the darkness, it was as if thousands of flood beasts were lurking, ready to pounce on him and bite his neck at any moment.
Qian Bufeng was a little scared and called out. After a long time, I heard the old man's response: "Shhhhh ”
When Qian Bufeng heard the old man's voice, his heart settled a little, and he swallowed his saliva quietly.
I don't know how long it took, there was a sudden scream and roar in the darkness in the distance, if it wasn't for the old man reaching out to hold on, Qian Bufeng was afraid that he would have been paralyzed to the ground.
After that roar, there was a faint sound of rustling, louder and louder, more and more rapid, and nearer!
Qian Bufeng's legs began to play the pipa without obeying the call, and the cold sweat was like rain, even in the palms of his hands.
The old man seemed to smile and said, "Money is not windy, why are you so daring, what a big thing, you are afraid of being like this." ”
Qian Bufeng didn't speak, and said secretly in his heart: "Nonsense, can I not be afraid?!" Lao Tzu is a serious earthling, and there are not so many scary Raushs on the earth who are magical and demonic!"
Seeing that Qian Bufeng did not answer, the old man said, "It is estimated that in ten minutes, the animal will arrive." ”
Qian Bufeng's Adam's apple moved, and said, "The beast ..... Be..... What the hell. ”
The old man snorted coldly, and his tone was full of cold chills: "This beast is an adult swamp crocodile python, the snake body crocodile head is bloody and brutal, likes to eat human flesh, its strength is considered the top among the second-order demon pets, when it is ruthless, even a third-order magician is not its opponent." ”
Qian Bufeng didn't know anything about the second-order demon pet and third-order magician, and he was frightened enough when he heard the bloody and brutal words that he liked to eat human flesh, he swallowed his saliva and said, "Then what level magician are you? Have you beaten this animal?"
The old man smiled and said, "Well, I'm only a second-order magician at most now, and if I really want to fight, I definitely won't be able to beat this beast." ”
When Qian Bufeng heard this, his frightened voice trembled, and said, "That.... That I.... Let's go!"
The old man sneered and said, "Go, I have endured humiliation for twenty years, and I have studied magic for twenty years after a lot of hard work, just to one day slaughter this beast and avenge my dead wife and children!"
Qian Bufeng said: "You are now a second-order magician, how can you win it?" It's better to go back and continue to learn magic, and it's not too late to kill it when you become a third-order magician." I've endured it for twenty years, and I don't care about enduring it for a few more years. If you can't beat him now, won't you die in vain? ”
The old man sighed in the darkness and said, "Why don't I want to become a third-order magician and slaughter this beast safely........ It's just that my talent is dull, and I started late, even if I exhaust this life in this life, I'm afraid I won't be able to become a third-order magician. ”
He let out a long sigh and said, "You remember that you just agreed to my request. ”
Qian Bufeng had a trace of bitterness at the corner of his mouth at this time, and thought to himself: "Since you can't beat that beast, then how can I be spared after you die? How can I bury your bones with your wife and children?" Thinking like this in his heart, he said: "Don't worry, as long as I am alive, I will definitely do it." ”
The old man smiled with relief and said, "You won't die, don't worry." ”
Qian Bufeng was puzzled in his heart, and was about to ask: Why don't I die?
But at this moment, the old man suddenly let out a deep sigh and said, "Animal, take your life!"
As soon as the words fell, Qian Bufeng only felt a strong wind sweeping quickly, and his body shook and staggered backwards.
At this time, the sky and the earth were dark, and even if Qian Bufeng's eyes were wide open, he couldn't see anything. In the darkness, only a disgusting fishy smell could be heard, and several rumbling sounds were heard in the ears, and then an angry and painful beast roar was heard, and the heavens and the earth fell silent again.
I don't know how long it took, Qian Bufeng in the darkness only heard a faint old voice coming: "Young man, don't forget what you promised me......"
Qian Bufeng stood up straight in the dark, and said seriously: "Qian Bufeng is not windy, it must be done!"
At this moment, he only admires this old man, but has no sympathy and pity. Because this old man is a real magician, a magician worthy of respect.
He is tragic, and he does not need mercy. Any sympathy and pity is an insult to him.
Qian Bufeng will always remember this dark night, because it is a tragic and memorable night.
In this dark night, a persistent old man dealt a fatal blow to the animal that ruined his happiness and beauty.
He taught money not to be windy and that some things are inviolable. Some of them are inverse and untouchable.
There are some people who deserve your life for her.
