Chapter 14: Awakening from a Nightmare
Looking up, I saw that the man was handsome and handsome, and his spirit was high. A woman stood beside her, with a curvaceous hairpin in her hair, a jade bracelet on her delicate wrist, a wet pink brocade dress, and wine beads falling from the corners of her flower skirt.
The woman's eyebrows were tightly locked, and she sighed: "Senior Brother Wu Yue, forget it......"
But the man didn't stop, glared angrily, and continued: "Look at the black iron on your waist, you should be a cultivator. The lower plate is unstable, you don't look down, your clothes are untidy, and you are confused, I am afraid that your teacher must be the three religions and nine streams and so on. The man's mouth was like a poisonous snake, and his words were like a knife, and he was stunned to depreciate him worthless, and the pig-killing knife on his waist was also compared to scrap copper and black iron. It's really hard to draw the skin of a tiger and paint the bones, knowing the face but not the heart, and being born in vain is handsome.
Zhao Dongsheng was on fire in his heart and clenched his fists tightly. Carefully placing the iron bowl in his hand on the table, he looked directly at the man.
Seeing that the two of them don't look right, I'm afraid that if they say a few more words, they will fight. The woman frowned and said angrily, "Okay, okay, Senior Brother Wu Yue, you just don't say a word." It's my fault for being careless, it's none of his business. ”
The man snorted coldly again, then turned around, changed his normal behavior, and said with a smile: "Senior Sister Yue, don't get in the way......" said, squatting down to help wipe the wine on the corner of his skirt.
It was already dark outside the door, and Zhao Dongsheng picked up the iron bowl and walked out. Walking to the door, he stopped, turned his head sideways behind him and said, "Girl, I'm really sorry ......"
The night sky was full of stars, and the insects in the grass were singing, but his mood was extremely bad. I encountered such a thing just now, and I was angry and depressed. stepped up his steps back to Xiaofeng Mountain, and in the wing room, Zhao Dongsheng put the bowl down and fell on the bed, only feeling that his legs and feet were sore, numb and tired.
At this time, Shen Liang saw that the lights in the room were bright, and pushed the door in.
"Senior Brother Shen Liang. Zhao Dongsheng quickly got up and moved the bench to let him sit down.
Shen Liang looked at his tattered clothes, frowned, and said, "Why did you only go back at this time, and you still look like this?"
Zhao Dongsheng told everything that happened today, but did not mention the golden centipede. The people of the righteous path are quite tired of these wet eggs, and it is not an exaggeration to kill them. They are ugly, but if they don't harm the world, what's wrong? The heart is not afraid of crooked faces, but it is much better than those human-faced beasts. Although he thought so in his heart, he still didn't dare to let Shen Liang know, otherwise it would definitely be another scolding.
"You, you, let me say something. After only a few days of cultivation, I have to fight against that treacherous person, and I don't know the depths...... Don't be the first bird, be careful. In Shen Liang's heart, the little skill he learned in Tongmu Mountain was not in the eyes of the law at all, so he said so.
There was no subtlety in his words, and Zhao Dongsheng, who only listened, was silent, and he was depressed for a while.
"That's it, I'll report this matter to the master. Tomorrow morning, you can bring your wine to the Winding Cave and feed the Wind Beast. Shen Liang saw that he was listless and didn't want to say more.
"Senior brother, where is the Winding Wind Mountain?"
"You've been to the road to heaven on the back of the mountain, and there is a small mountain road that leads straight up, and if you continue to walk along it, you can see the sound cave. Shen Liang said as he depicted.
"Dongsheng, rest early. Oh, by the way, tomorrow you go to the backyard and get a new dress to change into, what is this......" Shen Liang also felt that there was something wrong with the words just now, and walked out of the room slowly.
After he left, Zhao Dongsheng fell on the bed, and it was not easy to be reprimanded by him, and remembered the incident of the restaurant, slapped the quilt a few times, and said to himself: "That girl is not bad, but how can there be a fierce senior brother." Ay...... If it weren't for the girl's sake, I would have beaten you. ”
The night was getting deeper, perhaps because he was too tired, Zhao Dongsheng wore this outfit, held the jade on his neck tightly in his hand, and fell asleep.
"Second uncle, second uncle......" A toothless boy shouted at the man with a smile on his face, standing by the clear lake.
The man fiddled with the tattered fishing nets, looked back and smiled, "Be careful not to fall in...... Hehe...... I got my clothes dirty and I didn't give you anything to eat when I got home. ”
"Go home and tell the second aunt that she won't give you food. The boy grinned and threw his hands on the man.
At this time, a tiger-headed boy ran over, grabbed a stone in his hand, and said with a smile: "How about we play in the water?"
"Okay, good, good......"
The water of the lake turned bright red and bloody. Suddenly, the tiger-headed boy and the man beside him were stabbed through the chest by a black shadow, and a large amount of blood gushed out and sprayed on the surface of the lake. The toothless boy glared and cried out heartbreakingly, "Second uncle...... Second Uncle...... Kaiyu ......"
"Second Uncle...... Kaiyu ......" Zhao Dongsheng muttered in his mouth, suddenly woke up and sat up, looking at the flickering lights in the room, panting heavily.
wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, only to find that his whole body was soaked with sweat. Sitting on the bench in shock, he took a sip of tea and gradually calmed down. It's been five years, and in the dead of night, I've often been woken up by this nightmare. The loss of relatives and the experience of Xiaohu Village will never be extinguished.
Looking at the oil lamp on the table, he was stunned, and the light flickered on and off. Life is like this, swinging, joyful and joyful. As long as the wick is not extinguished, the perseverance is shaken, and the light is still covered with pupils to illuminate the four directions.
The placket of the garment swerved a few times, and the golden centipede in his arms slowly crawled out and climbed onto the wooden table around his arms. Running back and forth forgot about it, this centipede was strange and terrifying, but honest, and had been quietly hiding in his arms and not moving. It's strange to say, it doesn't hide on the right side, but attaches it to the left chest, which makes Zhao Dongsheng puzzled, but it is very picky. Alone and boring, but with a living thing to accompany me, I can't help but feel a little more fond of it.
The centipede stood up halfway, climbed up to the mouth of the bowl, and its long tentacles touched the bowl a few times, lingering for a moment, its oval-shaped head lying on the surface of the wine.
Zhao Dongsheng watched with his hands on his cheeks, but saw that the wine surface moved slightly, and said in surprise: "You still drink? Could it be that all living beings love to drink, except for me?"
I saw that its body turned over and fell into the bowl with a "poof". The shiny body is up and down in the wine, so that he can live freely. Shaking his head, he stretched out two fingers and pulled it out and put it on the ground, saying, "This wine is not for you...... Look at it, if you are a human being, you must be a drunkard, and you will be directly soaked in medicinal wine......" As he spoke, he took a white cloth and put the bowl on the mask.
The centipede lay motionless for a moment, then began to wander around, hitting the legs, hitting the wall, headless and brainless. Zhao Dongsheng looked stunned for a moment, and laughed: "Drink too much, drink too much, you don't ...... this amount of alcohol" was teased by it like this, and the depression in my heart was much more comfortable.
