Chapter 6: The Past Passes Away
The summer of the five hundred and thirty years of the Celestial Chronicle
"Boom"
A silver snake with a writhing body suddenly appeared in the dark sky, connecting heaven and earth, and the electric light continued to flow in the body of the silver snake, like a beating pulse, and only gradually disappeared into the dark night sky after a few moments.
At the same time as the silver serpent came the silver light that shone like the white sun, and at the same time was the roar of the silver serpent that resounded through the sky.
The sudden thunder woke Cheng Miao up from his past memories, and the silver-white electric light passed through the broken roof of the temple and shone on Cheng Miao's body.
Cheng Miao sat dumbfounded, his eyes out of focus, as if through the dark night, he saw the broken statue with his hands folded and in the shape of a prayer, but unfortunately the clay statue had been eroded by wind and rain, and it was already dilapidated, and it was impossible to see the original appearance.
Cheng Miao muttered to herself: "Who built this temple for you, and did you have a time when incense was at its peak?
It's like talking about the clay statue that has been broken and broken, and it's like talking about yourself.
After Cheng Miao finished speaking, a heart-rending feeling rose in his heart, as if he was constantly roasting back and forth on the fire, recalling Cheng Xi's figure, recalling the scene of burying his parents' heads with his own hands, and two words kept echoing in his heart: betrayal!
After the thunder and lightning, the rain poured like a downpour, and he had to quickly get up and huddle in a corner with his knees hugged.
The late spring night was still very cold, and the air was even more damp and cold under the shower, and even though he huddled in the corner with his knees clenched, he was still wet from the shower, and shivered with cold, like a homeless stray dog, and it had been nearly a year since such days.
Cheng Miao fainted in the mansion and woke up again, it was in a corner, and he figured it out afterwards, Guan Pingle just saw that he had lost his power, so he ignored his father's kindness to him, and handed over the city given to him by his father to the formation system.
No one in the city knew him, and no one cared about him, it was just another thin figure in the streets and alleys.
Perhaps a person's character cannot be changed throughout his life, or it may only take a moment to change.
Everyone has animal desire and human nature in their hearts, human nature is artificially cultivated, and animal desire is innate, but it will be bound by etiquette, morality, laws and regulations.
At the moment when Cheng Miao's family was destroyed, he had already lost the protection of his family, and fell into the mud from the clouds high above.
The hunger in his stomach made him almost mad, and he could understand why people in the famine even ate dirt.
The icy cold made Cheng Miao shiver, and in the cold night of winter, there would be a few more nameless corpses frozen to death every day.
Even among the beggars, there is this serious mutual exclusion, and Cheng Miao, a new beggar, is naturally the target of their play and bullying, and the law will not protect them at all.
In the eyes of the residents of the city, their group of beggars is just a group of wild dogs in human skin, every day they are fighting hard for a "territory" to shelter and a meal of food to fill their stomachs, and what these wild dogs have in their eyes is only the most cruel rules of survival!
The cold reality has shown Cheng Miao the most cruel scene in this world, those kindness and perseverance of human nature can't bring him a little food, nor can they bring a trace of warmth!
In just one year, Cheng Miao's appearance has not changed much, but his personality has already completely changed to another appearance, his illusions are completely shattered, and he has completely recognized the cruel reality, if he wants to live and take revenge, he must work hard.
In the cruel world, there is no choice but to adapt or die!
What supports Cheng Miao's survival is the strong desire to survive and revenge.
Cheng Miao hugged her knees and curled up in the corner, her eyes staring closely at the dark night sky ahead, her ears filled with the crackling sound of raindrops crashing against the broken roof.
"Boom"
Another thunderbolt shone on the heavens and the earth, and the only thing left at the entrance of the temple, which was already broken, finally came to the end of its mission, and flew upside down in the temple's not spacious main hall.
The dilapidated temple, even the main hall was filled with a large pool of stagnant water, and the broken wooden planks splashed the stagnant water and scattered Cheng Miao's body.
,
He didn't pay attention to the night when he couldn't see his five fingers, and the broken door panel flew almost upside down a foot away.
Cheng Miao muttered: "I don't have to listen to the annoying crunch of the broken door panel anymore..."
There was the crackling sound of rain in his ears, and Cheng Miao didn't hear the screams mixed with the rainy night, until someone flew upside down and rolled down in front of him, he realized that something was wrong.
The rich smell of blood came to my nose at once, and the memory of this smell was so profound, and it was this feeling that I had wandered in my dreams countless times!
Cheng Miao hurriedly got up, unconsciously wanting to escape, as if he would die on the spot if he was slow for a moment!
Cheng Miao had just escaped from the temple, and at the right time, there was another shining white light.
"Boom!"
As soon as the white light flashed, Cheng Miao discovered a scene that made him extremely shocked and frightened, and the moment the lightning flashed, he found that the temple had already been surrounded by people for some time.
Cheng Miao had no choice but to retreat into the temple again, hiding in the corner, hoping that in this dark night when he couldn't see his fingers, the group of people would not find him.
In the blink of an eye, the main hall of the small temple was densely packed with a large group of people.
If Cheng Miao had the ability to see at night, he could see this group of people avoiding left and right, giving way to a passage, and a person walked out of the passage without hurrying.
Quietly crouched beside the corpse lying in the main hall, groped up and down, and then took a wrench-shaped object from his index finger.
Everything happened in the dark night, and Cheng Miao didn't know what was going on.
The man put the wrench in his arms, looked around, and then locked his eyes on Cheng Miao in the corner, and smiled lightly.
Whispered: "The task is completed, disbanded on the spot"
Although the voice was soft, it accurately reached the ears of everyone except Cheng Miao, as if someone was whispering softly in their ears.
As soon as the words landed, they withdrew from the temple at a great speed, and disappeared as if they had never appeared from beginning to end.
The man walked in front of Cheng Miao, a familiar fragrance came, he was just about to remember who the owner of this fragrance was, the man stretched out his hand and patted the back of Cheng Miao's head, his thoughts were also blocked by something, no matter how he couldn't remember who the owner of this fragrance was, he just faintly felt very familiar.
She didn't care about the smell emanating from Cheng Miao's body, she reached out and grabbed the collar at the back of Cheng Miao's neck and lifted him out of the corner.
The ordeal of the past year has already completely activated the beast instinct in his body, that is, the judgment of a hunter to "fight or flee", even if the smell of this person in front of him is familiar, he has not let down any defense at all.
The moment she grabbed the clothes behind Cheng Miao's back, Cheng Miao's scalp tightened, and a bad feeling rose in her heart, so she unconsciously struggled to turn around, and bit on the slender jade hand in one bite.
After this mouthful, Cheng Miao's teeth were almost broken, and they were as hard as solid iron bumps, not human hands at all!
In just an instant, the iron-like hard hand returned to normal, and it could even be said that it was far more delicate than ordinary people's skin, and it could be broken like tofu when it was blown.
Cheng Miao's teeth quickly penetrated the thin layer of skin and submerged into the veins under the skin, and blood quickly gushed out from the wound, and his mouth was full of blood.
Since the person in front of him can accurately find Cheng Miao's location from the night when he can't see his fingers, it must be night vision, her hand was as hard as iron at first, almost shattering his teeth, but I don't know why it suddenly returned to normal, and there was a large group of people outside the temple...
Cheng Miao knew that this person was definitely a cultivator with strange abilities, and he was afraid that he would not be able to escape death!
But even if she dies, Cheng Miao will bite off a piece of her flesh!
Maybe this is the change, that night, Cheng Miao quietly watched the waiter die in front of his eyes, and quietly watched the person who killed the waiter stretch out his hand to him, and he was so frightened that he didn't even dare to move.
Cheng Miao used all her strength to bite, and finally tore off a piece of meat from her hand.
After Cheng Miao chewed a few bites, he swallowed it and laughed loudly, looking like crazy.
The maniacal laughter may be a bluff to disguise the intense fear of death.
Cheng Miao knew that this person was definitely a monk, and it was just a matter of turning his hand to take his life, which was extremely easy, but tearing off a piece of meat was enough for him, and he was satisfied.
The man said, "It stinks, it dirties my hands, and I will take your life after you have washed them."
Although the voice trembled slightly, as if the uncontrollable feelings were about to erupt, these voices were mixed with the crackling rain, and Cheng Miao could only barely hear a rough idea, and he couldn't hear the trembling voice at all.
After saying that, he threw Cheng Miao in the rain curtain, he also closed his eyes, completely accepted his fate, and lay on the ground in a large shape, letting the heavy rain wash over his body.
About a quarter of an hour had passed, and the scene he had expected did not appear, and the man had thrown him into the rain without any further movement.
Cheng Miao's heart, which sank to the bottom, rose with a glimmer of hope: "Was that person led away by someone? Is there something else? Let me wash it is just an excuse?"
Thinking of this, he struggled to his feet, using his hands and feet, but before he could run a few steps, he was grabbed by the collar again.
Cheng Miao wanted to struggle again, but after being hit with a knife, he passed out unconscious.
She carried Cheng Miao, the rain seemed to be blocked by an invisible umbrella, and when it fell a foot above her head, it scattered and separated, and Cheng Miao, who was already soaking wet, was covered in white smoke, and the water was completely evaporated in a blink of an eye.
She frowned and muttered, "Why is it still so stinky?"
The tone is calm, not superfluous emotional fluctuations.
A breeze blew lightly, and the smell on Cheng Miao's body was taken away, which was obviously her credit.
Since she has this ability, for some reason, she still let Cheng Miao rain for nearly a quarter of an hour, and I don't know why, and with her skills, as long as she is willing, even if Cheng Miao breaks her teeth, there is no possibility of hurting her.
Cheng Miao didn't know what the reason for everything was, he was already in a complete deep coma at this moment
The man carried Cheng Miao like a kitten, and he had disappeared from the dilapidated temple in the middle of the day.
