Chapter 43: A Beggar?
Early morning.
Wang Lusheng got up early in the morning with his daughter-in-law, probably just after the middle of the day, when the fish belly on the horizon was slightly yellow.
His daughter-in-law wants to get up every day to practice, saying that she has been working hard for more than ten years and can't be left behind.
He also practiced with Crane Xi, but unfortunately he learned to swallow and breathe, but he didn't learn martial arts moves, and then he meditated and breathed every day.
However, this breathing is useless in his senses, and his body is a little better than ordinary people, he usually doesn't catch a cold, he will still get drunk after drinking too much, and he is still out of breath when running.
But Crane Xi didn't let him stop practicing, and he couldn't fight Crane Xi's stick, so he could only accept the task assigned by Crane Xi.
After swallowing and breathing, after breakfast, Wang Lusheng immediately went out.
He always remembered what he met at the City God Temple last night.
Wang Lusheng went directly to the North Street of Gutong.
North Street is a place where mountain people from outside the city enter the city to set up stalls, and there are also a lot of juggling places, and recently the war has been broken again, most of the people in the north of Jinling County have suffered from the military disaster, so they all run to the south, so there are many victims in North Street, and there are many people begging for food.
Wang Lusheng soon arrived at North Street, and he Gu Ren, who was anxious, thought of a mistake, that is, he forgot to ask the time, or rather, the city god did not tell him the time.
It's a big deal, I don't know the time, I only know the location, do you want to stay here all day?
"All day, all day. Wang Lusheng thought about the old and young in the family, and then thought about the horror of the monster, and he accepted his fate.
Wang Lusheng slowly walked through the North Street, looking left and right, looking east and west, no different from those civilians who came to buy vegetables, but he was dressed a little better than those civilians, although the color of the clothes was blue-gray, but its texture looked three points better.
However, how can the people in the mountains and wilderness see that Wang Lusheng is extraordinary, they only think that Wang Lusheng is full of anger and is a cultural person.
So no one came to sell him mountain goods, and no one sold his daughter to him.
All the vulgar things in the strange novels did not happen, which made Wang Lusheng strange, he heard his friends say more than once that he received a bright little girl to warm the bed on North Street, although there are people who sell their sons and daughters on the street, but they really won't pounce on people to ask for them, most of these people are victims of the disaster in the north of Jinling County.
I don't know how the city guards guarded the door, but let a lot of people in.
However, these have nothing to do with him, his top priority now is the Taoist priest, and he now wants the Taoist priest to stick to him.
But where did the Taoist priests come from, at most a few black-faced Taoist priests who sell dog skin plasters, and they can't be fake at first glance.
After walking to the end of North Street, Wang Lusheng still didn't see the Taoist priest, so he had to find a roadside noodle stall, ordered a wonton and sat there, he planned to walk around North Street after a cup of tea.
Syllable!
One person sat in front of him: "Young man, I see that you have evil spirits in your eyebrows, and there will be demons around you, but be careful." ”
Wang Lusheng listened to the voice and looked over expectantly.
How do you know that what you see is a middle-aged beggar dressed in red, green and green, although his face is clean and even his beard is shaved, but the clothes he is wearing are tattered, which is not difficult to think of his identity as a beggar.
"Are you ......," Wang Lusheng asked with a little tentativeness.
"I am Zhujiang Weng, a cultivator in the red dust. The beggar said with a smile.
"Cultivator, are you a Taoist priest?" asked Wang Lusheng excitedly.
"I've learned a lot of things, Jing Chu's witch Gu Zhu Youzhi has learned a little, the shaman method of the northern barbarians has also learned a little, and the monks in the mountains in the west have also learned a little bit, and our Taoist priests here...... Naturally, I won't miss it, so it doesn't hurt you to call me a Taoist priest. Zhujiang Weng smiled and said his skills.
When Wang Lusheng heard this, he was overjoyed, this may be a capable person, maybe the person who the city god asked him to find is him.
Wang Lusheng's thought made Gu Renqing, who was hiding aside and preparing to appear, embarrassed.
"I was the first to get there. Gu Ren watched Zhujiang Weng and Wang Lusheng talk happily, and slowly retreated.
That Zhujiang Weng's cultivation was also refining and refining qi, but Gu Ren always felt that there was another breath covering that stall just now, so he temporarily retreated.
The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and there is a villain holding a slingshot at the yellow finch.
So now you have to be careful with everything in Gutong, especially when the tentacles of the old demon of Montenegro have also reached here.
The person who wanted to release that breath had discovered Gu Ren, so he especially made Gu Ren feel it and gave him a warning.
For Wang Lusheng, Gu Ren also had a guess in his heart.
Wang Lusheng may be a hidden dragon, and he has the support of the Zhenwu Temple (in the eyes of outsiders, it is the support of the Zhenwu Temple), which is even more incredible.
Although cultivators generally do not get involved in the mundane world, sometimes when they can obtain the qualifications for promotion, when they are blinded by the great calamity, they have to be involved.
In fact, many cultivators are self-aware, but sometimes they are dominated by the calamity, and how many of the people in it can clearly know?
Even if the heavenly immortals fall into it, they can only be driven by the calamity and do all kinds of irrational things.
That's why Gu Rencai has always been careful, otherwise he will die unexplained.
In fact, many cultivators felt that the current era was a good time, a good time to obtain promotion qualifications, after all, it was difficult for the hand of the Heavenly Court to reach the mortal world this time.
This kind of thing also happened once in the past, that is, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when there was chaos for more than 500 years, and it was difficult for the Heavenly Court to meddle in the mortal world for more than 500 years, and then the Qi State, which had clearly obtained the Mandate of Heaven, did not achieve the great cause of unification, but let the Qin State sweep the world and unify the world, although after the catastrophe was dispersed, the Heavenly Court intervened in the world again.
The Terran Ancestral Dragon disobeyed the Heavenly Court, and then Qin Shi Huang died in the sand dunes, and the Qin State collapsed within a few years, and the new Son of Destiny, Liu Bang, competed with Xiang Yu, the favored of the Taiyi God, for hegemony in the world.
After that, the foundation of the god of Taiyi was not as good as that of the Emperor of Heaven, so the God of Taiyi was killed by the Emperor of Heaven.
The current situation is quite similar to the Spring and Autumn Warring States period in front of the two thousand, so many cultivators feel that they can reap the benefits of the Great Tribulation.
You must know that back then, there were many cultivators who became true immortals in that catastrophe, and they did not belong to the heavenly court, and opened up their own cave world between heaven and earth, and became free immortals.
In the face of such temptations, it is false to say that you don't want it, isn't it true that cultivators practice in order to become immortals, live forever from now on, and live with heaven and earth?
Every cultivator is a person who has seen himself, and naturally he knows his true thoughts, and although he will be affected by the calamity, he will also follow this true thoughts.
Gu Ren is no exception, he has also thought about longevity, but he is lazy, too lazy to intrigue with others anymore.
He wanted to be an observer.
