Xilu City is located in a key area, prosperous and prosperous, and there are many monks from all walks of life, which can be regarded as the center of gravity of the cultivation realm within 10,000 miles. However, just like the normal state in the world, geniuses are always a few, and mortals are everywhere, and in Xilu City, which has a population of hundreds of thousands, ordinary mortals still account for the majority after all.

For ordinary people, monks, even the most miserable casual cultivators in the cultivation realm, are like immortals with vast magical powers, and they are extremely awe-inspiring. It's just that people have different paths, and almost all monks treat mortals with a contemptuous attitude, and mortals often treat monks with respect and distance.

After all, it is said that it is a cultivation of true immortals, but there are often people who cultivate themselves into demons and demons while cultivating, and the tragedies of demons and evil ways slaughtering mortals in recent years have not happened uncommonly. It is in this Yinzhou territory, although it is a remote place in the vast territory of the Hongmeng main realm, one city and ninety states, but thirty years ago, there was also an evil thing that the evil demons slaughtered the city, slaughtering a small city of thousands of people in the northeast of Yinzhou.

Therefore, in a city, monks and mortals often maintain a situation where the well water does not interfere with the river water, but there are always some brave people who will want to do business with the powerful monks in the hope of gaining some benefits.

At this moment, Shen Shi walked through the long street, and saw some ordinary people who had no way to walk on the side of the road, casually placing a piece of cloth on the ground, and then putting a little goods from nowhere, and then forming a small stall by himself, and then daring to sell it to the casual cultivators in the past. Most of the things sold were some medicinal herbs they picked on the mountain, or old gadgets that they picked up from nowhere, with Shen Shi's unique vision that he had tempered himself in the first floor of the sky, he naturally saw that most of these people's things were useless things, or fakes and the like, so he also smiled.

Listening to the hawkers around him shouting that this is a few products and a few products of spiritual grass, what kind of strange stone is it, or the god mysteriously carried a broken incense burner and said that this is a magic weapon unearthed from the tomb of an ancient true immortal in a deep mountain, and it is also a strange scene in Xilu City.

Walking through Horseshoe Street, where the monks are most concentrated, and bypassing a few intersections, the hustle and bustle quietly disappeared behind him, and the surroundings seemed much quieter, after all, in the ordinary mortal world, living a peaceful life is the norm.

Shen Shi grew up in this Xilu City since he was a child, and he has long been familiar with this city, especially the street near Horseshoe Street, where his house is located, and he will not make a mistake with his eyes closed. At this moment, the warm sun is gradually rising, and all kinds of worldly conditions of the people on the side of the road are also in front of him, quietly staged in the streets and alleys here.

Shen Shi bypassed a few children who were laughing and playing on the road, and turned into an alley, the mouth of the alley is not big, there are a few families living in it, there are few voices, and it looks very secluded. It's just that Shen Shi seems to be very familiar with this place, and he walked all the way to the deepest part of the alley, and then he smelled a faint smell of blood.

A somewhat dilapidated door was hidden, and it was faintly visible that the first few huts were surrounded by a patio courtyard, and just as he was about to step forward, there was a sharp and rapid scream behind the door, but after a moment only two low voices were heard, and the cry stopped abruptly, and it seemed that all the sounds were forced back.

The bloody gas in the air seemed to be a little stronger.

Shen Shi smiled, pushed open the door, and saw that on the edge of the patio, a burly man was bare-chested, and the muscles on his iron-like body were like iron casting, just like those terrifying demon beasts in the wilderness outside the city.

At this moment, the big man was half-bent over, and under his feet was a fat pig with bound limbs, and in his hand he was holding a sharp butcher's knife, the blade was bleeding, and it was leaving between the pig's throat. The movement just now was obviously that this man who looked like a butcher was killing pigs.

Hearing the movement at the door, the butcher stood up straight, turned his head to look, and saw that it was Shen Shi standing at the door, he didn't have any unusual look, and it was no different for the bloody scene in front of him to be seen by this twelve-year-old boy, just nodded slightly.

Shen Shi glanced at the fat pig that was already dead on the ground, and there was no fear or disgust on his face, everything was as usual, he just greeted the butcher with a smile: "Uncle, you are killing pigs so early." ”

The butcher let out a "hmm", his voice sounded a little low and hoarse, and he said angrily, "Why are you here?"

Shen Shi walked up to him and said with a smile, "My father asked me to come over and buy some meat." ”

The butcher's face suddenly turned cold, he was silent for a moment, nodded, and said, "Just today?"

Shen Shi only felt that his throat suddenly interfered a little, and he didn't know whether he was nervous or stimulated by some strong bloody qi around him, and said in a low voice: "Yes." ”

The butcher looked at him and said, "Come in." ”

Shen Shi walked over, looking at the appearance between him and the butcher, although they didn't talk much, they seemed to be a little familiar with each other. The butcher was not idle, while signaling Shen Shi to come over, he grabbed the fat pig on the ground with one hand, and with a hey, he directly picked up the big fat pig weighing hundreds of catties and threw it aside.

Behind the patio, the sound of "whirring" suddenly sounded, one after another.

The butcher turned around and stood in front of Shen Shi, in terms of body shape alone, he was so strong that he didn't know where to go, at least three heads taller than him, and his arms were thicker than Shen Shi's thighs, especially now that he was holding a bloody pig-killing knife in his hand, coupled with his figure, it was really a murderous aura.

However, Shen Shi looked calm, his eyes swept over the blood-stained pig-killing knife in the butcher's hand, but his expression was still quite close to this fierce and vicious butcher.

The butcher looked Shen Shi up and down, and suddenly said, "Take off your clothes." ”

Shen Shi was stunned and said, "What?"

The butcher's palm trembled, and the sharp and shiny pig-killing knife spun smoothly between his fingers, turned around, and the handle of the knife was facing Shen Shi, only to hear his deep voice say lightly: "Kill two?"

Shen Shi raised his head and looked at the butcher, the butcher looked at him expressionlessly, after a while, Shen Shi suddenly smiled, reached out to take the bloody butcher's knife, and at the same time reached out to undress, and said with a smile:

"Okay. ”

The spring breeze blows across Xilu City, blowing into the streets and alleys of the city, and the sun shines warmly on this quiet place. The alley was as calm as usual, the dilapidated doors were still hidden, but after a while, a sudden hissing sounded again, followed by a low and strange noise, with a hint of cold determination, ruthlessly cut off the scream.

The wind blew, and the smell of blood in the alley seemed to be a little stronger.

"I've also thought about living in secret, guarding small stones, and living my life like this. In the light smoke, Shen Tai didn't know when he returned to the quiet room where the spiritual seat of his deceased wife was enshrined, standing alone in front of the incense table, looking at the three fine incense sticks that were about to be burned, and said softly, "Really, I really used to think like this." ”

Shen Tai glanced at the spirit card, a trace of sadness and bitterness flashed across his face, and he said in a low voice: "Am I useless, don't I look like a man at all?" Obviously, it was Li Xinghuai who coveted your beauty back then, and his intentions were ill-intentioned, and you didn't escape from death, but after all, a serious injury fell to the root of the blood collapse, and he died after producing a small stone. I know all this from beginning to end, but I just can't avenge you, I can't do anything, and I have to work hard for Xuanyin Gate, and take care of the first floor in full swing that day......"

The residual fragrance is fine, and a few ashes fall, like a woman's teardrops.

"He is a child of a family, he has good talents, he has cultivated to the Ning Yuan realm at a young age, and there is an immortal-like Yuan Dan Realm ancestor Li Lao Wei, looking at the entire Yin Prefecture, he is a big man who calls for wind and rain, but the two of us are just mortals who can't even pass the lowest Qi refining realm, what should I do, what should I do...... After you left, I often couldn't sleep all night, and every time I woke up, I thought about you as you were. ”

"I want revenge, I want to think about it very much, I want to go crazy when I think about it, but every time after dawn, I have to pretend to be smiling, walk on the first floor of the sky, and smile to others......"

"I know, when you left, you advised me not to think about revenge, they are heaven, we are ants, and we have a small stone, as long as we take care of our son. ”

"Xiaoshi is very well-behaved and sensible, I didn't hide anything from him, I told him everything, from childhood to adulthood, I scolded and urged him so harshly, always let him do some hard things that other children's children can't do, and he never complained. Xiaobai, will you blame me? I know that I am actually very useless, but I can't protect him, so in order to make him more self-reliant in the future, I have to be ruthless. ”

Unconsciously, a drop of water fell on the incense case, Shen Tai looked down, and gently reached out to wipe the water marks.

"I wanted to work the first floor on this day, and try my best to lay a foundation for Xiaoshi's family business, I thought there was really hope, and they even agreed to let Xiaoshi go up the mountain. But...... Let's still be ants after all, a word from the Li family's side took away the name of Xiaoshi's disciple, I know, they have also been here for a long time, this cornucopia of countless spirit crystals earned every day, they are afraid that they will not be able to bear it for a long time, and the catastrophe is only in the palm of their hand, right?"

"We are both ants, but I thought in my heart, even if it is an ant, but they force me like this and don't give me and Xiaoshi a way to live, then I have to bite them hard to the death, so that I don't come to this world in vain, right?"

"Xiaobai, you have knowledge under the spring, you want to bless me and Xiaoshi. ”

The stocky man wiped his eyes, then reappeared with his usual gentle smile and smiled at the spirit card.

The residual smoke drifted away, and a little red light quietly disappeared, that is, the three sticks of incense in the incense burner were finally burned out.

Shen Tai took a step forward, took three more sticks from the box of fine incense placed on the other side of the incense table, re-lit them, and inserted them into the incense burner again. Through the light smoke that slowly floated again, he took a deep look at the spirit card, and then turned around and walked out, never looking back.

In the palm of his hand, clenched into a fist, it was a small white and old hourglass, and the fine sand flowed silently, as if it had gone away from the past years.
