Chapter 327: The Old Man Meets Again

Arashishu, Kurogi Castle.

Chen Zhong is an ordinary person born in Black Wood City, with an ordinary family background, ordinary appearance, and a very ordinary growth experience, not to mention that the world is famous and resounding in the Hongmeng world, even in just one Black Wood City, he can't seem to stand out. However, everyone, even ordinary people, will have a unique dream in their hearts, and they will feel that they are different, perhaps in order to get rid of this ordinariness, so Chen Zhong chose to cultivate.

Gaining great power to spy on the heavenly machine to seek the immortal path of immortality is, of course, the greatest extraordinary.

It's just that the world didn't favor him because of his dream, but slapped him coldly and mercilessly, he once again found that he still couldn't get rid of his ordinary fate, his roots, his qualifications, and still ordinary fate, plus his ordinary background was not supported by the huge cultivation resources of the children of the family at all, so after many years, he was still an ordinary and embarrassed casual cultivator.

Dreams are getting farther and farther away from him, and if there are no accidents, this life will be spent in the ordinary of despair.

Chen Zhong was reluctant to do this, so when an opportunity suddenly appeared in front of him, allowing him to see the slightest extraordinary opportunity, he almost immediately pounced, even if it came at the cost of doing disgusting filth.

He has done a lot of things for an old monster, ruined the lives of many people, maybe he still felt guilty in his heart at the beginning, but as time went on, he did more and more dirty things, and gradually he began to become numb. In fact, from another point of view, this man named Chen Zhong may not be a downright bad person, he is filial to his parents, for fear that his mother will be sad and dare not reveal what he has done outside, half of the money he earned is spent on his mother, including buying a very comfortable, spacious and good mansion.

He is like a black-and-white man, who is a filial son during the day and a wicked man at night; he is a good man at home, but he harms others when he goes out.

It's just that maybe for Chen Zhong himself, he should still be a little dissatisfied in his heart, the old monster promised to respond for a long time, Chen Zhong is a little afraid that maybe that kind of big man still can't look down on an ordinary ant like himself after all, so when the delicate and weak girl from a noble family showed a little joy and affection to him, Chen Zhong felt like he had suddenly found a life-saving straw.

He is a person who dares to gamble, an ordinary bottom, born with a person who seems destined to achieve nothing, in addition to gambling with his own life, what capital does he have? So he resolutely gambled, he bet that this beautiful lady of the family who seems to have never seen the world will really rely on herself in a desperate situation, and then involuntarily like herself.

He felt very sure.

He felt that the future was bright.

He feels that he has finally seen the dawn of hope in this life, and he can finally realize his dreams, he can fly to the dragon gate to realize his dreams, he can fly to become stronger and stronger, and he can also take his wife to live a good life in Haizhou, and find countless rare elixirs for his mother to eat Fuze and prolong his life, and his wife will live a long life of 100 years, so that he can do his filial piety.

It all seemed so beautiful, like a beautiful dream that was gorgeous and unreal.

Then the dream shattered, and he died.

His mother died before he did.

No one knows what Chen Zhong thought when he fell on the Yellow Phosphorus Mountain, shouting in a hoarse voice and exhaling his last breath?

Will you regret it? Or look back on this life, and finally let out a sigh, and smile bitterly to find that you died so ordinarily. It's just that no matter in the past or now, mortals like him will never have an end. He died in a barren mountain, with no place to be buried, and his filial mother was hastily buried by him, but on this night, even the grave was dug up.

If it is retribution, why is there actually a wicked person in the world who is more excessive and vicious than him, but he does not see the shadow of retribution?

When it got dark, Shen Tai sat alone in the room, an oil lamp on the table in front of him, shining on his calm face. There was no one in the house, and in the dark part of the courtyard outside the house, there were faint figures walking around, seemingly relaxed, but in fact they were closely guarding the room.

A sound of footsteps sounded from outside, and after a while, someone knocked lightly on the door, Shen Tai answered, and the person outside pushed the door and walked in, it was Xiao Qi.

Shen Tai turned his eyes to look at him, Xiao Qi walked up to him, and said in a low voice: "I found the grave of Chen Zhong's old mother, but after digging it up, only the ashes were left inside, which were cremated, and I can't find it." ”

Shen Tai frowned, and after a moment of silence, he said, "It's always a sin to disturb the deceased, let's bury her again." ”

Xiao Qi said: "It's been properly reburied." ”

Shen Tai nodded, no longer speaking, Xiao Qi glanced at his face, and said: "Shopkeeper, this mansion has been dug three feet into the ground by the brothers, but all the clues have been broken here, and the son doesn't know where he has gone now, what should we do now?"

Shen Tai put one hand on the tabletop, one of the fingers knocked on the table one by one, and after a while, he only heard him say lightly: "Chen Zhong's old mother died a little strangely, no matter whether this person is dead or alive now, let's wait here for a few days first." In my opinion, whether it is him, or his friend or adversary, he may have the opportunity to come here. After a pause, he said to Xiao Qi again, "On the side of his mother's grave, he also sent someone to keep an eye on it, and if that guy comes back, he will take it down directly to see me." ”

Xiao Qi nodded and agreed one by one, and was about to go out, but at this time, Shen Tai and Xiao Qi in this house, as well as a group of figures hidden in the shadows in the courtyard outside the house, suddenly heard a few faint insect chirpings from outside the high wall in this silent night.

Shen Tai and Xiao Qi's faces changed at the same time, and after a while, Xiao Qi stepped forward and directly blew out the candle flame, and then blocked in front of Shen Tai, and those shadows in the courtyard outside the house also quickly blended into the darkness in a very short period of time, and disappeared in an instant.

The courtyard was a dead place in the blink of an eye, and the treetops in the courtyard swayed and rustled like the soft weeping of ghosts in the middle of the night.

I don't know how long later, when the darkness was as thick as black ink, suddenly a black shadow appeared silently on the high wall of this courtyard, and after a glance around, his body fluttered like a fallen leaf, and fell in this courtyard.

With a glimmer of light, a dark figure walking in the darkness could be faintly seen, which seemed to be a masked man.

He took two steps in the courtyard, as if he was looking for something, but after a while, suddenly he paused slightly, and his steps suddenly stopped. As if in contrast to his actions, in the hall in front of him, where a large hole in the wall was broken, a fire was suddenly lit, and then a candle was lit again.

The flame trembled and fell into the eyes of the masked old man, reflecting the two figures in the room.

Xiao Qi's face was solemn, his eyes were as sharp as a fierce beast, and his body slowly took a step back to the side, revealing the person sitting behind him.

Shen Tai sat at the table, one hand on his knees, the other on the table, his face was like an ancient well, and he looked deeply at the shadows outside the station.

The candle flame was reflected in his eyes, flickering and burning.
