Zhu Xian

Chapter 5 decadent

Hundreds of thousands of mountains, the ancient cave of Zhenmo.

After the resurrection of the beast demon, the scene of the ancient cave has been very different from the previous black clouds and the wind roaring. Although the sky is still dark, the black gas gathered at the mouth of the cave has dissipated, and not only the gloomy wind blowing from the ancient cave has disappeared all year round.

In addition to the still desolate mountains, only the stone woman standing at the mouth of the ancient cave in the town still stands there. And in front of it, dressed in bright silk clothes, he turned out to be an extremely handsome teenager, even with a trace of glamour.

The face is whiter than that of an ordinary woman, with thin eyebrows and eyes, thin lips and a pointed jaw. Looking carefully, this face is slightly similar to that of the stone woman.

It's just that the temperament on the faces of the two people is completely different!

This teenager is the beast demon resurrected from the ancient cave of the demon town. No one expected that the demon who scared countless people in southern Xinjiang was such a handsome teenager.

From the day of resurrection, somehow, he did nothing. He did not kill or roar with ecstasy, but just stood so silently in front of the stone statue of the exquisite witch, staring silently.

The shadow flashed, and the lich floated silently from the distance and came behind the teenager.

"Lord Beast God."

The teenager didn't move and didn't look back. He said, "How's it going?"

The lich stared at his back and said, "The Thirteen Demon Kings have subdued all the remnants of the 100,000 barbarians in the mountains and obeyed the orders of the beast god together."

The teenager's body moved. He slowly turned around and said lightly, "How many races are left?"

The lich said, "Now there are only thirty-seven races. In the past hundred years, the dragons in the mountains have no heads, many barbarians have killed each other, and many tribes have been destroyed.

The teenager smiled coldly, and there was no expression of disappointment on his face. On the contrary, he had a rexious feeling faintly emanating from his heart. His eyes were like electricity, and he turned around on the face of the lich lich covered with black gauze.

The lich suddenly felt that his face was almost like being burned by a flame.

"Actually, it should be from the 38th clan," the teenager said leisurely, "Isn't there the last descendant of the black witch clan!"

The lich lowered his head and was silent.

The teenager slowly turned his head, and his eyes fell on the face of the exquisite witch stone statue again. After staring for a long time, he suddenly shouted, "Black wood."

The lich's body was shocked. For him, the name was like a wound engraved in his heart. Every time he called, he would be hurt once.

Only the teenager stared at the Linglong stone statue, and suddenly there were a few more vicissitudes in his tone. He said, "For so many years, have you ever regretted it in front of Linglong?"

The lich was silent, and it took a long time to whisper, "Yes."

The teenager did not look back. His eyes flashed with strange light, which flowed non-stop. He said quietly, "In this world, in addition to your eldest brother who has become a fierce spirit, only you know my relationship with Linglong. In those years, eight of you chased me through thousands of mountains and rivers. Now when I think about it, it seems like yesterday.

The body under the lich black veil suddenly began to tremble slightly. It seemed that the past was also vivid in his mind.

It was just the teenager, but he didn't pay attention to the lich's reaction at all. What he said was not so much to the lich lich , but to whisper to the stone statue. In his eyes, there is only the exquisite witch's stone statue at this moment.

"You," his voice slowly filled with sadness, sadness and indignation, "What on earth are you for?"

The stone statue is speechless and stands in silence.

"In your heart, what kind of life in the world, what kind of destiny, is it so heavy?" The teenager's voice suddenly became a little excited and slowly became louder.

"If you take those more seriously than me, so you have to leave me, right?" The expression on the teenager's face appeared with a strange and charming cold smile, "But you know, I don't care at all!"

"What kind of bullshit, what kind of all sentient beings in the world, what is that?" His expression became more and more sad. Strangely, although his eyes were extremely terrible, his appearance became more and more enchanting and beautiful, almost like ordinary people.

"If you want me to die, it's enough to say a word, you know? Do you know that?" He roared harshly, facing the stone woman, and then, slowly, his voice fell down,

"But why... you regard those things as more important than yourself and your own life..."

Slowly, he stretched out his hand, gently stroked his face that had experienced countless years of frost erosion and gradually roughness, and brushed the once gentle face in his deep memory!

The cold feeling, without a trace of warmth, came slowly from the palm of the hand.

He opened his arms, hugged gently, and held the stone statue in his arms. The teenager's expression gradually turned into strange tenderness. The lich stood behind him and silently watched the strange scene.

"I know that it's the people in the world who have harmed you." The teenager half closed his eyes and whispered like a dream, "Don't worry, I will let everything be buried for you, and then I'll come to you again..."

"You're waiting for me..."

The low voice quietly lowered and finally disappeared. The enchanting teenager hugged the cold stone statue, the lich in black stood up, the dark clouds in the sky thundered, and raindrops fell from the sky.

The heavy rain fell in the wind, making the world hazy. In the loom, the lich looked stunned, and the raindrops fell on the stone woman's face and slipped silently--

It's like tears!

※※※

Three thousand miles east of Qingyun Mountain, the edge of the ancient road extending from Kongsang Mountain to the southeast, the silent wilderness is the time when the grass grows and the warbler flies.

Hejia's shop, one day away from Xiaochi Town, is also the same as in the past, standing alone by the ancient road to welcome the travelers passing by. Naturally, Boss He, the owner of the shop, can't remember how many guests he has welcomed, the passers-by, and naturally what it looks like. But in these three days, he gradually affirmed that although he was getting older, he must remember such a guest.

In fact, it is not very accurate to say that he is a guest. In fact, he should be a guest with a strange monkey. And for Boss He, what impressed him was that the strange-looking monkey with three eyes was even more powerful.

Three days ago, Boss He, who was standing outside the store next to the ancient road, saw the dusty and blank-faced man coming from the ancient road with a three-eyed monkey on his shoulder, he somehow felt a little familiar. At that time, he came forward. He wanted to say that he would pull the guest into the store to rest for a while, but unexpectedly, he only said one sentence:

"Customer, we have hot tea and wine in our store. It's better to rest inside..."

Before the words behind this came out, the man who looked very haggard suddenly disappeared from his eyes. The next moment, when Boss He came to his senses, the man was already sitting at the wooden table in his shop. And on the table, there is an ingot left to eat and drink money in this small shop for three days.

Boss He was naturally very happy and hurriedly brought wine and vegetables, but to his surprise, the guest and the monkey really stayed in his shop for three days and nights. Until today, it seemed that he had no intention to go on the road.

The man's spirit was obviously very bad. In three days, Boss He didn't see him say a word or laugh once. Every time he brought wine and vegetables to the table, the man just looked at the wine pot silently and drank slowly.

It's just that the guest official's drinking capacity seems to be extremely poor. Every time he drinks a little, Boss He estimated in his heart that it was less than half a pot, and his whole body fell on the wine table and unconscious. Contrary to the owner, the three-eyed monkey brought by this man surprised Boss He.

To be honest, Boss He opened a shop here. Although the place is remote, because there are many merchants in the past, he is also a bit of insightful. In these three days, he has sworn countless times in his heart that he has really seen the monkey that can drink and drink the most in his life.

It was just a day and night. All the wine in stock in Mr. He's shop, including his daughter's red wine hidden under the old locust tree behind the store, were all drunk by the monkey.

And this monkey, obviously still has an inexhaustible appearance. It scratched its ears and cheeks, looked around, jumped for a long time, and kept "squeaking" at Boss He. Although Boss He didn't understand the monkey language, the fool could also see the meaning of the monkey. He didn't want to ignore it, but the monkey was as clever as a ghost. He secretly stole the silver that Boss He put away and swayed around in front of Boss He.

Boss He had no choice, not to mention that others had paid enough money, so he had to send a clerk to deliver wine here from Xiaochi Town overnight. At first, he was quite annoyed, but after a while, he gradually fell in love with the monkey. Moreover, in addition to drinking, this three-eyed monkey has no other bad place. Instead, it often plays in the store. When he is in a good mood, he actually plays a few jugglings. For example, he can produce a clump of flames from his hand out of thin air. Not only does Boss He's eyes go straight, but other merchants who Not in high spirits, he stayed in Boss He's store for a long time, which made him earn more money.

And the owner of the gray-haired three-eyed monkey is completely opposite to the lively monkey. Most of the time, he sleeps with drunken servants. When he wakes up once in an interval, he just looks around blindly. Occasionally, the monkey runs back to his side, and there is a little brilliance in his eyes. He la Later, he seemed to think of something sad. He picked up the wine pot and drank it again. After a while, he fell asleep again.

Sometimes Boss He secretly thought that this man should not be a madman. However, although he is just an ordinary shopkeeper, he still feels that this man is different from other passers-by. Among other things, the man stayed in this shop for three days, and the most mosquitoes in the past night suddenly disappeared. What's more, in the past, in the middle of the night, the ghost crying that often echoed in the wilderness of the ancient road outside the shop seemed to be scared by something, and all disappeared. So much so that Boss He was used to hearing these ghosts and howls. Suddenly, he was so quiet for three days that he couldn't sleep.

At dusk this day, Boss He stood behind the counter of the small shop, closed the account book that had just been calculated, and sighed. Then he looked into his shop.

There is still a faint afterglow in the sun falling in the west of the window. While shining red in the sunset in the sky, it also shines in from the window of the shop, elongated the tables and chairs here and the shadows on the ground, as if time was also quietly passing by here.

Boss He's mood suddenly felt a little different, and he was stunned for a while. He was already over fifty. Although the helper always said that he looked only about forty, he knew that his body was still getting worse.

If you don't forgive people for years, will you live your whole life like this?

He looked at the shadows of the gradually growing tables and chairs on the ground. When he looked up, he saw the traces of mottled falling off on the four walls of the shop.

The silent sun shone on his face, and there were some inexplicable vicissitudes of life.

He sighed and shook his head. Don't think about these things. Boss He smiled bitterly, picked up the account book and walked towards the only guest and his monkey in the store at this moment.

The guest always sits at the innermost table. At this moment, as usual, he is drunk and sitting on the table motionless. His monkey squatted on the table, holding a wine pot in his left hand, and grabbing delicious food from several plates containing dishes on the table with his right hand. He took a sip of wine and ate a mouthful of food.

Boss He walked to the guest, coughed and cleared his throat, but his eyes couldn't help looking at the monkey first. The three-eyed monkey obviously didn't care about his arrival. He only looked at him and then focused on the wine pot in his hand. Boss He sighed. This monkey is really the only alcoholic animal he has seen in his life, and there is a big wine bag behind it. Although it has dried up, you can imagine what it is in the past.

Boss He withdrew his eyes. Somehow, he was a little nervous. Even he couldn't explain it himself. He coughed a few more times before he carefully said, "This... guest officer."

The man in front of him remained motionless.

Boss He was a little embarrassed, but he went on: "Well, guest officer, it's like this. The ingot of silver you paid three days ago has been used up now. Our store has a small profit, isn't it..."

I don't know if the man was really drunk. He lay there, but there was still no movement.

Boss He sighed and said, "Actually, the guest officer, you paid a lot of money. Not to mention eating in a small shop for three days, it's enough to eat for five days. It's just... It's just that your livestock are too powerful. They drink too much. In just three days, they have drunk all the wine stored in the store, not to mention the four-cylinder of wine sent by someone in two, were actually drunk by it..."

Boss He said this and looked at the three-eyed monkey again, but the monkey stared at him and made a grimace.

Boss He whispered, "Can you pay some more silver? Er, by the way, the ingot you paid three days ago was stolen by your livestock. It hasn't been returned yet. I..."

Before he finished speaking, he only heard a "ding" sound, and an ingot of silver jumped twice on the table and appeared in front of Boss He. Boss He fixed his eyes, but the monkey didn't know where he took out the stolen silver from there and threw it in his face.

Boss He quickly put it away and received it in his arms, but he hesitated for a moment, took a look at the monkey, took out the silver, opened his clothes, and put it in his close-fitting clothes.

Just as he collected the money and planned to talk to the man again, a voice suddenly came from the door of the shop:

"Is anyone there?"

Boss He was stunned and looked back. There were three people standing at the door, two men and one woman, led by an old man, holding a bamboo pole in his hand, a piece of white cloth hanging on it, with the words "fairy guide" on it. Next to him, there was a girl who looked like seventeen or eight years old, with a beautiful

The old and the young are immortal and beautiful. After these two people, there is a middle-aged man standing behind them, holding all the packages, but he is strange. He is taller than the first two, but his face looks like a wild dog, and he is tired of it.

Boss He hurriedly greeted him. After all, it is obviously impossible for the guests with monkeys to sneak away. It's better to greet the new guests first. He greeted him with a smile and said, "Yes, yes, three guests, do you want to eat or stay in the hotel?"

The old man led by

smiled, squinted his eyes and said, "What, Boss He, don't you know us?"

Boss He was stunned and looked at the old man carefully for a while, but he couldn't remember it anyway. He was doing business on this ancient road. How could he remember it one by one? He had to shake his head in embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, guest, I'm old and have a bad memory."

The old man's face was sad, and he shook his head and sighed, "Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity. Most of the mortals in the world are like this. There is a fairy fate in the front, and there is no wise eye to know."

Boss He was shocked and immediately felt a little in awe. He looked at the old man carefully and saw that his white beard was fluttering, and the crane bone fairy wind was mostly a master. Although he didn't know why the master looked like a Jianghu scholar, and the girl beside the old man seemed to be disapproving, but since he was a master, it was naturally something that mortals like him could not understand. If he understood, wouldn't he also become a master?

Thinking of this, Boss He had already had a little more respect on his face and said respectfully, "Yes, yes, this guest officer... No, please from the master."

The old man agreed, and the bamboo pole holding the fairy's guide swaggered in first. The girl behind him shook her head with a wry smile and turned to the man with the package behind him and said:

"Wild Dog Taoist priest, let's go in and have a rest for a while."

The man answered and followed in. The three of them sat at a table. The dog-faced man wrapped himself on the chair next to him and made a "bamp", which seemed to be heavy.

These three people are naturally Zhou Yixian and Xiaohuan's grandson. As for the dog-faced man, he is the only remaining wild dog Taoist in the Blood Refining Hall. Since the end of the battle of death, the wild dog Taoist followed Zhou Yixian and Xiaohuan, wandering around the world and making his home all over the world.

At the beginning, Zhou Yixian really didn't like the wild dog. He picked the wild dog two times in three days, and he said sarcasm from time to time. However, the wild dog Taoist somehow seemed to change his mind and changed his personality again. Unexpectedly, he didn't listen to it, but he still followed all the way, and There is a statement of maintenance.

Although she is young, she has sharp teeth. Even if Zhou Yixian is an old man, she is often speechless, and finally has to accept this fact. Fortunately, after a long time, he gradually found that wild dogs were not useless. For example, the heavy packages that he used to carry could now be thrown to this "crot", and the "crot" did not have any disgust in the slightly apologetic eyes of the small ring, but looked very happy.

As for other benefits, such as walking in the wild to meet beasts, walking to see ghosts on the road, crossing the mountain to meet a strong man, etc., etc., of course, it is also to send this wild dog "ghost" to deal with it. Along the way, Zhou Yixian only feels extremely comfortable. Tianya Road has walked I met the wild dog earlier.

During this period of time, the three of them revisited their hometown. Anyway, they were wandering around the world, and they could go anywhere. They walked and walked back to this ancient road. Fortunately, Zhou Yixian, like a ghost, even remembered that Boss He, a person who opened a small shop on the roadside, came up and dressed up as a master. Boss He was shocked.

Seeing that Boss He must be respectful to himself, Zhou Yixian was proud and ordered a few dishes. When Boss He quickly walked away to prepare, he turned around and was about to brag about Xiaohuan and the wild dog Taoist, but suddenly he saw Xiaohuan and the wild dog Taoist's face for somehow, and something incredible suddenly appeared. The expression and eyes are straight.

Zhou Xianqi said, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"

The wild dog Taoist raised his arm, which seemed to have become a little heavy, and pointed to the depths of the small store: "Look at it yourself."

Zhou Yixian stared at him and turned his head to look. Suddenly, his body was also shocked.

In the remaining sun at dusk, the last ray of light fell from the window. In the dark corner of the shop, there was a man figure, and above the table, in the shadow, a three-eyed monkey was looking at them.

Xiao Huan was stunned and shouted in a low voice:

"Little Hui?"
