Chapter 1381: Since Ancient Times
After arranging the Giant Clan, the rest of his life went back.
As he passed by the back kitchen, he checked Impermanence again and saw him chatting with the evil spirits on the sandbank.
"Human existence is a painful struggle, and every second of life is a struggle against death, and it is a struggle that is doomed to failure. Now that you've failed, why are you clinging?" Impermanence looked at the evil ghost in front of him.
The demon's skin is burned by lava.
He slowly raised his head, looked at impermanence, and said contemptuously, "You don't understand. ”
Impermanence smiled and pointed to the sandbar, "Life is when you circle around the sandbank, and from time to time you are burned by the magma on the sputter. During this time, you see the coolness of hiding in the sandbar as happiness. You cling to it, you look forward to it, but it's just a little comfort in the pain of your life. ”
The demon was stunned for a moment, looked at the sandbar, and clearly heard it.
"Come, drink this glass of wine, and you will have eternal happiness. Impermanence handed the demon a glass of wine.
For the rest of his life, he regained his spirit and ignored him again.
"This impermanence is in the Netherworld, and it can be regarded as showing its strengths. Yu Sheng sighed and entered the door at hand.
......
Central Plains, built on top of wood.
The sunset hangs behind the mountain, and the slanting sun dyes the surrounding flowers and plants red.
The probe looked down at the cliff below, Shennong City under the built trees, or the earth all day long, shrouded in darkness.
Another day passed, and the doctor sighed.
He looked back at the little monk who was sitting cross-legged on the grass with a lion ball lying next to him, and then looked at the old monk sitting cross-legged on the stone.
"It's not. He finally couldn't help it, "When are we going to go down the mountain?"
"Go, be quiet. The bamboo pole monster drove him aside, for fear of disturbing the little monks.
"The legs are on you, and we are not stopping you. The bamboo pole monster said in a low voice.
"But you haven't given me the money yet. "If you give me the money, I'll leave immediately." ”
The bamboo pole monster said angrily: "You didn't help much, we found this place by ourselves." ”
They went around and around on the building wood for nearly a month, and finally they went up to the surroundings, and Qiuqiu, who had been sleeping in the arms of the little monk since leaving the inn, smelled the scent of grass, woke up, jumped off the little monk, and led them to the grass.
"But I don't have any credit, I also have hard work, I don't take you to cross the river and tear down the bridge, unload the mill and kill the donkey. Doctor You said anxiously, "Also, you have come all the way, I have taken a lot of medicine, at least I have to pay for this." ”
"Well, don't say it, your medicine is really delicious. "The bamboo pole monster has one thing to say.
It's not that they're sick, it's that although the medicine of the traveling doctor is fake, most of them are harmless.
Most of his herbs are boiled with a black sugar juice, which smells strange, sweet, and greasy. The few medicinal herbs with medicinal fragrance added were identified by the little monk, and most of them were star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves and other things that he had seen in the inn.
Therefore, along the way, when barbecuing and cooking, they all used the medicine of the traveling doctor to crush it for seasoning, which was very delicious.
"yes, you pay. Doctor You said.
The bamboo pole monster was reluctant to pay, "You also ate that meat, do you have to pay me for food?" ”
"I..."The doctor wanted to cry, he was hunting geese all day long, but he didn't expect to be pecked by geese today.
The hard one can't work, he can only come to the soft one, "Big brother, big sister..."
"Huh?" the bamboo pole monster looked at him, "Whose big sister do you call, dog?"
"Uncle. ”
Doctor You reluctantly changed his words, "You can do it, I have an eighty-year-old mother and an eight-year-old son, and they are all waiting for me to go home and get rice for cooking." ”
The bamboo pole monster waved his hand, "Come less, how old are you, you are still an eighty-year-old mother, and your mother gave birth to you at the age of fifty?"
"That's not the point. Doctor You said, "The key is that I still have a daughter-in-law, what if she has an adulterous affair with the old king next door? ”
The bamboo pole monster groaned, this is a problem.
He said seriously: "To be honest, brother, it's not that we don't give you money and don't let you go, it's mainly from this barren mountains and mountains, you also saw it when you came, there are many monsters, monsters, and spirits, if you are not careful, you will die, it is better to go down with us at that time to be safer." ”
This is their true intention, the old monk is merciful, and specially instructed the bamboo pole monster.
"But you—" The doctor pointed to the little monk and the old monk who were meditating, "when is this a head?" ”
The traveling doctor also knew that it was not safe for him to go down, but these people were going to live here.
The bamboo pole monster didn't know when the little monk was a head, so he could only pat the doctor on the shoulder and comforted: "It's soon, it's fast." ”
Under a tree not far away, the dogs and shit were making a fire, and Qiu Fan, the prisoners who came with them, were washing rice and cooking.
They roasted a fat head of prey on a shelf, while a small clay pot was hung next to it, in which white rice porridge was boiled.
These prey are either shot by the little monk or shot by the bamboo pole monster, which is their main ration.
As for the porridge made from the grain they brought, it was prepared for the old monk.
"You two burn a little bigger. Qiu Fan commanded the two little guys and sprinkled seasoning on their prey.
"Okay. ”
The shit shouted, lay on the ground and blew the fire, and after a while made himself a big face, causing everyone to laugh.
Although they live in the wilderness, in a desolate place, isolated from people, they live more freely than ever.
When Qiu Fan was laughing, he looked at the falling sunset in the distance, wishing that he could live here forever.
However, this is just a thought.
On top of the building, the farther away from the ground, the more monsters, monsters, and all kinds of man-eating spirits, the more dangerous they are, and it is difficult for ordinary people to survive.
A few of them didn't even dare to leave the little monk and the old monk twenty steps away.
Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will die in the mouth of the demon beast.
The one they roasted on the shelf was stabbed to death by the little monk last night when he bypassed the trees and was about to attack them from behind.
Retracting his gaze, Qiu Fan sighed, I don't know when they can live freely in the land below.
"Is the meat ready?" Dog Dan drooled, looking at the roast pig, sprinkled with seasonings such as ingredients, very fragrant.
The color of the medicine is also very good, and the caramel color looks very attractive.
Qiuqiu smelled the smell of meat, left the little monk, ran to the barbecue rack, opened his eyes wide, and stared straight at the barbecue.
It flicked its tail, although this barbecue meat was not as delicious as the inn's, but the Qiu family hadn't eaten meat for a long time before Shang Jianmu.
This craving, if you don't eat a few more meals, you can't get rid of it at all.
A prisoner next to him tore off a leg, tasted it, and nodded, "Okay." ”
With that, he handed the rest of the meat to Qiuqiu.
The ball took it and ran to the side to enjoy it.
When the other prisoner saw that the meat was ready, he used a bowl to serve the porridge.
They had to serve the old monk food first, otherwise under the temptation of the smell of meat, the old monk would feel that they were seducing him to break the precepts.
As for the little monk, he generally eats meat.
Qiu Fan cut off a piece of meat with a knife and walked behind the little monk, "Little Master, it's time to eat." ”
The little monk slowly opened his eyes and looked at the grass in front of him first.
The grass stem brought by the little monk, when he saw this grass, turned into a fluorescence and merged into this grass.
After that, the grass stems slowly wither, then dry and turn to ash, and the wind blows away.
The bamboo pole youkai watched from the side.
At first, the bamboo pole monster was very surprised to see this scene.
But after carefully measuring this grass, my heart was full of surprise, thinking that the little monk traveled from the Eastern Wilderness to the Central Plains for this plain grass?
Around this grass, not to mention the flowers that bloom, but only the grass, other grasses are not only fatter than it, but also taller than it.
In this pile of grass, it is the one who shiveres, and can only try to stretch out the branches and leaves, absorbing the sunlight in the cracks.
"Could it be some kind of amazing medicinal herb?" thought to himself, pulling the traveling doctor aside for advice.
The traveling doctor looked at it for a long time, and judging from the level of his half-hung traveling doctor, he couldn't see any precious place about the grass.
The only thing that is commendable is, "This grass grows in such a tall place, I estimate that it should be a spirit grass." Doctor You said.
Since then, the little monk has been sitting beside the grass every day, meditating, chanting scriptures, and participating in meditation.
When the old monk saw him like this, he also meditated on the side.
In a blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
At this time, the grass still did not move, and the little monk was not discouraged.
He took the meat handed over by Qiu Fan, and was just about to eat, when he saw that the grass was windless, and the leaves trembled.
The little monk was stunned, and after a slight groan, he took the meat away and saw that the blades of grass were quiet.
When he moved the meat closer, the grass shook violently again.
The little monk became happy, tore off a piece of meat and put it next to the grass, and said with a smile: "You can't eat it again, what are you excited about?"
The grass couldn't answer, but her branches and leaves gradually bent over the flesh, and her body trembled with joy.
"You want to eat? You've got to become a demon quickly. The little monk said.
As he spoke, he slowly put it in his mouth and looked at the sky in the distance.
He remembered that not long ago, the sky was suddenly dark, and he didn't know if it had something to do with the inn.
......
Peony City, Demon Inn.
"Hey, I've found out, those people are now active in the south, and they make a living by robbing houses. Lao Huang lowered his voice and said happily to Bai.
He took a sip of wine and spit it out, "Why is this wine sour?"
"Sour?" Bai Xing took a sip, "Well, it's indeed sour, I guess it's not hot, I'll give you another hot one." ”
"No, forget it, I'll have something to do later. The Peach Demon Lao Huang stopped him.
"However, your signboard is really a smear for our shopkeeper, don't smash his signboard at that time. Lao Huang said.
Bai was happy, "Don't worry, you can't smash it, you didn't see that my signboard is called 'Demon Inn', there is no word." ”
Lao Huang pursed his lips, "By the way, let me tell you that now, he has successfully become the king of the middle wilderness." ”
"What! really?" Bai was happy, and his voice was not suppressed, attracting the youkai next to him to look back at him.
Lao Huang hurriedly motioned to him to be quiet, "Don't spread this news." ”
"Why?" Bai was puzzled, "This is not the style of the shopkeeper." ”
"What is the style of the shopkeeper?" Lao Huang had little contact with the rest of his life, and he didn't know much.
"When introducing himself, he must hang a large list in front of his name, for fear that others will not know his identity as the son of the king of the Eastern Wilderness. There's a sheep's head and he can sell dog meat, and there's a donkey's head and he can sell you dragon meat. Such a person, you say he can keep a low profile?"
Bai happily took a sip of wine, "fluttered" and vomited, which was really a little sour.
"Yes. Lao Huang nodded, "However, he didn't let it go this time because he had a hard time." ”
"What's the problem?"
"The Book of Life and Death. Lao Huang said that when Yu Sheng asked him to convey them through the system, Yu Sheng told him, "The shopkeeper has agreed with the King of the Northern Wilderness, once he becomes the King of the Middle Wilderness, he must return the book of life and death to him." ”
Bai Xing suddenly said, "No wonder the shopkeeper has to keep a low profile, and the treasure that has entered his hand has no one to come back." ”
But it's not the same thing to drag it like this, what if the King of the Northern Wilderness knows about it?
"So, the decent giant who is in charge of the shopkeeper has been on his way to the Western Wilderness lately. Lao Huang said.
Bai Xing was surprised, "What are you doing in the wilderness?"
"Bury a piece of animal bone on the side of the Western Wilderness, with words like 'Middle Wilderness' written on it, and then dig it out, saying that that land has been the Middle Wilderness Land since ancient times. In this way, the territory of the Middle Wilderness has expanded, and he can fight with the King of the Northern Wilderness, and there is no need to return the book of life and death to him. Lao Huang said.
"That's not. Bai Xingxing couldn't help but say.
"Fool around, what if you can really fool it? There are dates or no dates to beat a few poles, it's always right to try. Lao Huang said.
