Chapter 63: The Church
Ouyang Yuting gently touched the wound on his face with his fingertips, and when he saw it, his fingers were already stained with blood, he put a finger on his tongue and licked it, and suddenly let out a strange laugh.
The laughter was dry, he was the only one laughing in the hall, and after a few moments, the laughter came to an abrupt end.
Ouyang Yuting stared at Zhou Jinyu with a pair of eagle-like eyes, and said with resentment: "Why is your life so good? I work harder than you, but why can't I beat you? Why is God so unfair to me?"
Zhou Jinyu was also a little unbearable when he saw Ouyang Yuting's bloodstained face, so he stopped making a move, he took back his sword, sighed and said, "It's that you want too much." ”
Ouyang Yuting's lips trembled slightly: "Do I want more, everyone looks down on me, God doesn't help me, I try my best to make others look up to me, what's wrong?"
Zhou Jinyu said: "You are not wrong, but no one looks down on you." ”
Ouyang Yuting sneered: "Do you know how bad the environment in which I grew up? I have been looked down upon since I was a child, and I still do today, including you. ”
Zhou Jinyu said: "I have never looked down on you. ”
Ouyang Yuting laughed and said, "Hahaha, do you really look up to me?" Are you pitying me?"
Zhou Jinyu said: "If you have to say this, what can I do, I don't want to kill you, you can leave quickly." ”
Ouyang Yuting said: "You will regret it!"
Zhou Jinyu said: "No!"
Zhou Jinyu continued: "But I hope you can repent in the future. ”
Ouyang Yuting said: "What do I need to repent?"
Zhou Jinyu said, "Go and ask your heart!" As he spoke, he turned around and no longer looked at Ouyang Yuting.
Ouyang Yuting didn't say anything more, snorted coldly, turned around and left. The fat-headed bandits and others did not dare to stop him.
When Ouyang Yuting came out of the hall, the fat-headed bandit stammered and asked Lan Yaqiu, "Just... Just let him go... Gone?"
Zhou Jinyu grabbed before Lan Yaqiu and said, "Give him another chance!"
The fat-headed bandit didn't dare to say much, scratched his head with his hand, and said stupidly: "After all, the stockade has finally been recaptured." After that, he thanked Lan Yaqiu again: "Fortunately, the woman... The female bodhisattva's great... The big apprentices help each other, and we will only be able to... to be able to re... See the light again. ”
Lan Yaqiu said: "It's just a gesture, but in the future, what you do must conform to the four words on the plaque in this hall, and do the right thing for heaven! ”
The fat-headed bandit said, "I... Our cottage brother... This has always been the case with the brothers, and even more so will be... I don't dare to disobey the female... The Hope of the Female Bodhisattva. ”
Lan Yaqiu said: "That's fine. ”
The fat-headed bandit's eyes rolled and he knelt down and said, "In... Under there are... There's a request. ”
Lan Yaqiu arrived: "You get up and talk about it, why bother?"
The fat-headed bandit slowly stood up and said, "The little one wants to serve a girl... The female Bodhisattva is the master of this cottage, and I don't know the female ... Is a female bodhisattva willing to condescend?"
Lan Yaqiu said: "The green forest and grass are not what I want, not to mention that I still have important things to do, so I can't stay here." ”
The fat-headed bandit scratched his head again and said, "So, little... It's also inconvenient to save the small ones... The female bodhisattva has been retained. The fat-headed bandit continued, "None... In any case, the female bodhisattva is great... The big grace and the big virtue are not... Toothless and unforgettable, female... If the female bodhisattva is... If it's useful, it's small... A place for the little ones, a small ... The little ones are thousand... Never give up!"
Lan Yaqiu smiled: "Haha, then I thanked you in advance, I see that you have a hard time talking, I think we will stop here, we are going down the mountain." ”
The bandits thanked them and sent them all the way down the mountain to say goodbye......
"Brother, you shouldn't let Ouyang Yuting go. Lin Lei'er said to Zhou Jinyu with a pair of watery eyes, her emotions seemed to have recovered a lot, and her eyes were full of agility.
Zhou Jinyu smiled and asked, "Why?"
Lin Lei'er thought for a moment and said, "Ouyang Yuting won't get better, he'll only be worse than before!"
Zhou Jinyu asked, "How can you see it?"
Lin Lei'er said, "Didn't my brother notice the tattoo on his left arm?"
Zhou Jinyu recalled that Ouyang Yuting's muscular arm did indeed seem to have a purple flower tattooed, he shook his head and said, "Ouyang Yuting has always been very strange, and his tattoos are nothing new. ”
Lan Yaqiu interrupted Zhou Jinyu's words: "I also noticed it, but how could a man like him tattoo a flower on his arm?"
Lin Lei'er said: "If you know what that purple flower represents, you won't be surprised. ”
Zhou Jinyu and Lan Yaqiu asked almost in unison, "What's it called?"
Lin Leier said: "Hyacinth!"
It was the first time Lan Yaqiu had heard the name of Hyacinth, and she had to admire Lin Lei'er's knowledge of strange insects and plants that was indeed far beyond ordinary people, and she wanted to ask: "Sister Lei'er, does this Hyacinth have anything to say? Could the purple flower on Ouyang Yuting's arm be the mark or totem of a mysterious sect?"
Lin Lei'er's gaze moved to Lan Yaqiu, with a look of surprise and admiration: "How could my sister know?"
Lan Yaqiu was also a little surprised when she guessed: "I guessed casually, is that really the case?"
Lin Leier said: "That sister is really smart, no wonder my brother likes you so much!"
Lin Lei'er's words made Zhou Jinyu's face suddenly become hot, he secretly glanced at Lan Yaqiu, and found that Lan Yaqiu had already lowered his head shyly, he quickly changed the topic and said, "Sister Lei'er, let's tell us about this hyacinth!"
Lin Lei'er chuckled a few times and continued: "I heard my grandmother say that hyacinths are born in the west of the Western Regions and come in many colors, but purple hyacinths represent sadness and melancholy, and this flower poison can instantly make people's blood coagulate and be deadly. Legend has it that there is a Church of Light in the Western Regions, and the people in that church will tattoo a hyacinth on the arm of both men and women, with men tattooing their left arm and women tattooing their right arm. They have a very strange belief that poisoning one person with hyacinths will overtake one person, and they will also increase their own merits, and they will not suffer from samsara after death. ”
Zhou Jinyu said: "I was born in Saibei, but I have never heard anyone talk about the Church of Light. ”
Lin Leier said: "I only heard Grandma tell me, I only know so much, and I don't know the rest." ”
Lan Yaqiu suddenly remembered something: "As soon as you say this, I remembered, I read in a book that the Church of Light arose in the Tang Dynasty, but then the entire church was destroyed, why did it appear again now?"
Lin Leier said: "In short, the beliefs of this church are very strange, and it can even be said to be very evil!"
Lan Yaqiu said, "It seems that Ouyang Yuting is already a member of the Bright Church?"
Zhou Jinyu said: "In this way, it is very likely. ”
Lin Leier said: "I said that I couldn't let him go, did my brother start to regret it?"
Zhou Jinyu said: "I just hope that he can eliminate his resentment against the world and live well." ”
Lan Yaqiu said: "I hope he can understand your hard work." ”
The three of them were talking, and suddenly two black-clothed people flashed out of the woods on the left, Zhou Jinyu had seen their dress, that is, in the night of the night in Yanzhou, dressed in black, covering their faces with black cloth, holding two sharp two-strand steel forks in their hands, they stood in the middle of the road without saying a word.
Then, two black-clothed men also walked out of the woods on the right, and they stood in a row with the two companions before, blocking the way of Zhou Jinyu and the others.
