Chapter 144: All Living Beings Are Suffering
(Thank you 'Tenmu' for your great support.) )
In the evening, Zhang Orion, who looked tired, looked at the deed of sale documents on the ground, and then looked at the gradually empty streets, and put away the deed of sale on the ground with numb eyes, planning to leave.
Although this rock city is a big city, the Zhang family has been selling themselves as servants here for several days, and although there are many people who come and go, few people care about it.
Now is the time of war and chaos, so there are not a few people who are ruined and ruined in Rock City, even if they want to sell themselves as servants, it is not easy to drag their families with them.
Zhang Orion wants to take his family back to the humble residence set up outside the city for the time being, and then come back tomorrow to try his luck.
He looked at his daughter, who had not eaten for a day and was already a little pale, put his hand into his pocket, took out some copper coins that were given by well-wishers today, and was about to buy some food, when he finally felt something abnormal.
Zhang Orion took out all kinds of bits and pieces from his pocket, and found a large piece of silver wrapped in gray paper.
When he saw this, his face first showed a look of confusion for a moment, and then he was suddenly startled and looked around cautiously.
By this time, it was getting late, and there were no more people on the streets. It was only after Zhang Orion realized that no one had discovered what he had in his hand that he breathed a sigh of relief.
That night, in the humble hut he had set up, Zhang Orion looked at the piece of paper wrapped in silver nuggets with the words 'good for yourself' written on it, and his face was puzzled.
"Could it be that God has opened his eyes...... I don't know which kind person it is...... , but with this silver, the whole family is like this...... It's finally saved. ”
When Zhang Orion found the silver nugget in his pocket, brought it back, and saw the four words written on the paper, he realized that he had met a good Samaritan today. In a way that he didn't notice, someone quietly put this piece of silver that could save the lives of his three members of the Zhang family into the pocket on the inside of his clothes.
......
Ding Qi returned to the Qingyun Sect, thinking about the Zhang Orion family he had seen in Rock City, and shook his head.
The experience of the three members of Zhang's family made him sigh quite a lot, and he felt that fate was impermanent for a while. Before this, a family living in Zhangjiaao originally got the silver that sold a half-hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, as long as they made good use of the money, put it into use, or bought some fields, they could have relied on this unexpected harvest to become rich, at least without worrying about food and clothing.
But who knows, soon after, a catastrophe fell from heaven, and just because of a military service, this windfall was lost.
Such blessings and misfortunes are impermanent, and people have to sigh that the world is changing and unpredictable.
Later, the Zhang family was even more serious because of a serious illness, and finally ended up in the miserable situation of the family to be sold to others as servants.
If it hadn't been for Ding Qi to come to the rescue this time, they don't know what would have happened in the end.
What happened to this family not long ago made Ding Qi's heart touch slightly.
"In this life, old age, sickness and death, and many sufferings in this world, it is so appropriate to show this family!" Thinking of this, Ding Dingqi frowned slightly.
Even with Ding Qi's tenacity, he can't help but feel that this life for a hundred years, in the face of birth, old age, sickness and death, fate and fortune, is just a vain dream.
Although he can now use his own strength to defeat the huge force of the Qingyun faction that dominates a state, but after a hundred years, he will also turn into loess, and all the fame here will eventually be in vain one day.
Ding Qi squinted his eyes, stood in front of the window, and remembered the matter of the Zhang family he met today, and the depressed thought that all living beings were sinking and undulating in the sea of red dust and bitterness rose in Ding Qi's heart, lingering, and always lingering.
Ding Qi's eyes rolled slightly at this time, thinking about something.
At this moment, a sound of pushing the door sounded in the room. Although Ding Qi was facing out of the window at this time, he couldn't see the figure of the person coming, but just by listening to the footsteps, he knew who the person was coming.
"Brother Ding, how about it, this place, I have been here for many years, but I have always stayed for you. Among the sects, there are also people who come here every day to clean, so they should still be in the habit of living. After the visitor entered the house, he said to Ding Qi with a smile.
Ding Qi turned his head, looked at this person, grinned, and then gave this person a rather speechless glance and said, "Hmph, it's not that you don't know, if it wasn't necessary, I wouldn't come to your Qingyun Sect." If you hadn't deadpulled me here this time, I would have gone back to the medicine garden in Qixia Town a long time ago. ”
When this person heard Ding Qi say this, he snorted and didn't pay attention to it at all, it seems that this kind of thing has happened many times, and he looks like an old fritter, and he touched his head and laughed twice.
This person is Wei Zhuo, who is already the deputy head of the Qingyun faction. However, Wei Zhuo, who is now the deputy head of the sect, has a flamboyant appearance in front of Ding Qi, and does not have the sense of majesty in front of ordinary disciples of the sect.
"Brother Ding, you can't blame me this time. Before this fight, Uncle Taishi, an old man, reminded me that once the sect returns triumphantly, the first thing I want to do is to invite you to the sect to participate in this celebration banquet of the sect. If he knew that I was by the river, and obviously met Brother Ding, but he couldn't invite you over, I would really be scolded to death. ”
Wei Zhuo touched his head, shook his head and said with a wry smile.
Since Ding Qi pushed Wei Zhuo to become the head candidate two years ago, the relationship between the two has gradually become familiar. Especially in the contact with Ding Qi, Wei Zhuo was surprised to find that Ding Qi was not a terrible person as he thought before, not only that, but even more so after he found out that Ding Qi himself was also an extremely good talker.
Even, after finally getting acquainted with Ding Qi, Wei Zhuo often put on a flamboyant face that made Ding Qi speechless, and in the end, the two unknowingly became friends who talked about everything.
This made Ding Qi think back, and still feel a little weird, and feel that this world is extremely strange.
This time, Ding Qi was invited to the Qingyun faction to participate in the celebration, and it was Wei Zhuo who relied on his relationship with Ding Qi to pull him over, otherwise, with Ding Qi's dislike of lively temperament, he might not necessarily appear on Qingyun Mountain.
Ding Qi looked at Wei Zhuo on the other side speechlessly, and suddenly said with a smile: "I remember that someone was invited to Qingyun Mountain for sightseeing and playing, relying on his cheekiness, and I don't know how many pills were taken away from me. ”
When Wei Zhuo heard Ding Qi mention the events of the year, he immediately snorted again, giving full play to his cheeky expertise, and suddenly in a few words, he confused the topic mentioned by Ding Qi, which made Ding Qi roll his eyes at this person again.
