The Urban Legends of Monsters: The End of the World (3)
Brother Liu woke up suddenly, lifted the quilt and sat up, sweat dripping from his face.
Just now, he had another dream that he had more than 20 years ago: Ruo Shi was running away, running away, running in the woods on the ground, suddenly Jing Shi appeared, a sharp sword... Then, stay I saw a baby...
"That child...Ning Ge'er..." Brother Liu muttered while sitting on the edge of the bed, "Why do I dream of that child?" He is the same size, if he is still alive and grown up, don't know if he should call him cousin or cousin? "But he was already dead. He died when he was less than two months old. Although the uncle exchanged his own life, he couldn't make the child survive." And he died in his mother's arms. , then did he and he also sucked his mother's milk and lay in the same cot together?
"Poor uncle, poor brother Ning..." Brother Liu's tears fell, "poor mother without injury... poor family of three..."
Although he didn't sleep well all night and his eyes were red from crying (his eyes were already red anyway, he couldn't tell if they were red), Brother Liu came to Hu Lisheng on time.
Hu Lisheng looked at him up and down. Although he was a little strange to him, he didn't say anything and indifferently ordered: "Let's start."
"Yes." Brother Liu agreed, but his eyes swept around the hole. Hu Lisheng obviously did not live here in the past few days. The simple utensils in the cave, the utensils used by Ren Shang Tian to cook tea and the stone couch on which he meditated were covered with a slight layer of dust. He knew that Ren Shang would not Coming back so soon, Brother Liu is still secretly looking forward to seeing him sooner. For more than ten years, seeing each other every day and accepting his Chunchun teaching, Brother Liu unknowingly became more dependent on Renshang than he felt. After learning about the uncle yesterday, he had a lot of things he wanted to talk to. He couldn't tell his parents, he couldn't tell his friends, and he didn't dare to tell him in front of his clan. The first person he thought of to talk to was Ren Shang. For him, this human being is like a teacher, an elder, and a friend.
"Brother Liu!" Hu Lisheng's voice became very stern, and he summoned Brother Liu's soul that flew to Jiuzhongtian.
"Mr. Hu, yes, I'm sorry!" Brother Liu immediately stood up straight and confessed his mistake aloud.
"You are unsure, how can you keep learning." Hu Lisheng waved his hand, "Come back tomorrow."
"No, Mr. Hu, I must learn today!" Brother Liu said loudly, "Please teach me! I can learn!"
"You can learn it? In a big tone, Brother Ren keeps saying that you are smart. I want to see how smart you are."
Hu Lisheng led Brother Liu to the outside of the cave and began to explain to him the basics of the illusions of the nine-tailed foxes.
The illusion of the nine-tailed fox is very different from the illusion of other spells. The luck in adjusting the inner breath and using it is very different from what Brother Liu has learned before. Brother Liu listened and memorized, the only thing I felt after the whole morning was dizziness, and the original self-confidence disappeared completely.
After cooking tea and rice, serving Hu Lisheng first, brother Liu sat under the tree outside the cave with a bowl and ate every bite. Because there were only five days left, Brother Liu had already agreed with his family that he would not go back for the next five days and would live on the ground to practice seriously. Although Jing Shi and Gengniang didn't agree, but the clansmen all supported him, so they had to let him come.
"If you don't learn it after five days, but you don't have the face to go back..." Brother Liu thought with a bitter face.
Hu Lisheng, who was sitting cross-legged in the cave, kept looking at him and nodded secretly. This morning, rather than saying that he was teaching Brother Liu, he was deliberately making things difficult for him. He gave Brother Liu all the most profound things in illusion, instead of teaching them in an order from simple to easy, from shallow to deep. He really wanted to see Brother Liu retreating in embarrassment. , rote memorization, actually learned everything he taught. Although I don't know how much he can understand, but this child may really be able to learn illusion... Just being so smart, I am afraid that he will be jealous of creation.
Brother Liu, who was sitting under the tree, was a little dejected. Sitting under the tree, he was pulling grass and leaves. A grasshopper jumped on his finger and sat for a long time, stared at him for a while, and then stepped on his knee. jumped away.
"Huh..." He let out a long breath and lay down on the ground. When he looked up, he saw the clear blue sky and the fluttering white clouds, which still made him unaccustomed. After watching it for a while, he felt dizzy and closed his eyes. Only the words "What if I can't learn?" were circling in his mind.
"Are you going to give up?" Hu Lisheng's voice came from the top coldly.
Brother Liu opened his eyes, and Hu Lisheng was looking down at him.
"You just gave up after studying for a long time?"
"Who said that!" Brother Liu jumped up from the ground. "I'm just closing my eyes."
"You're young, close your eyes, keep your spirits up, and practice again when you get up."
"Yes!" Brother Liu agreed with all his strength. Grandpa took a lot of thought to win this opportunity for himself, how can he retreat halfway, how can he make this old nine-tailed fox look down on him in vain. "Practice!" Brother Liu gritted his teeth, "I'm not convinced! Isn't the nine-tailed fox much smarter than the earth wolf!"
The setting sun was half gone, the glow was like blood, and flocks of birds were thrown into the forest. A small village could be seen at the foot of the forest. Brother Liu was sitting on a tree, staring at the sudden changes on the earth in a daze. Different from the constant silence of the earth as imagined by ordinary people, the earth is also changing, creeping slightly and slowly. It may take decades and hundreds of years to see a single obvious trace. But it's so fast that every second is different. It was the first time that Brother Liu stayed on the ground for so long, and it was also the first time that he saw the sunset and the change from day to night.
I don't know why, when the setting sun completely sank below the horizon and the earth fell into darkness, Liu Ge shivered, and an indescribable fear grew in his heart - the earth is bright in the dark night. It was brighter than any time underground, and he often came to the ground at night, but at the moment when the sunset fell, his heart tightened as if something caught him, and he jumped down from the tree, Even running and jumping into the cave.
Little by little, the light faded from each object, and the world was quickly plunged into complete darkness.
"Phew..." Brother Liu heaved a sigh of relief.
The darkness was nothing to him, but the fast-changing light made him uneasy. After seeing everything in the cave, he tugged at the straw mat on the stone bed, "Oh, sleep..."
The stone bed was cold and hard, and the straw mat had been piercing the skin. The wind outside the cave, the roar of beasts, the sound of birds flying and hooves...
"Ah... how does this make people sleep!" Brother Liu covered his ears and jumped up.
For Brother Liu, who is accustomed to sleeping in a warm and quiet underground, this is like sleeping in a cage full of noise, how could he close his eyes.
He sat frowning and pouting for a long time. Suddenly, he had an idea and twisted into the ground, only his head was exposed on the ground, and he put on an empty jar to sleep.
Sure enough, not only is it warmer, and the ear is not so noisy, but this is also a practice of what I said about spending the night on the ground - is your head still on the ground? After finding a solution, Brother Liu, who had worked hard all day and turned upside down for half a night, finally fell asleep.
It was almost midnight, as if footsteps gently entered the entrance of the cave.
When Brother Liu was half asleep, he couldn't open his eyes to take a look, but in his sleep he seemed to hear Hu Lisheng's surprised voice: "Why are you back?"
"Who's back?" Brother Liu thought in a daze.
"You are lucky this time, in case it happens again..." Hu Lisheng's voice was very stern, as if he was reprimanding someone.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuy"" Liu Ge groaned in the dream, "Mr. Hu, I know I'm wrong~~"——Although I can't be sure of my mistake during the dream, I admit my mistake first. talk later.
"It's really good for him, just stay away from him! I will keep my promise to take care of him for the rest of my life..."
“…”
"Aren't you going to live in the human world? Go earlier..."
"Who? Who is going to the human world? Are you crazy?" Brother Liu stuck out his tongue in his dream.
"Alas..." After a long time, another person let out a long sigh.
"Grandpa! Grandpa is back!" Brother Liu woke up suddenly, he lifted the jar on his head and jumped out of the ground.
"Nobody..."
The cave is empty, the wind outside is still the same, and there is no trace of anyone coming.
"Grandpa, are you back? Grandpa...Mr. Hu...is that you? I was under the jar just now...Grandpa..." Brother Liu ran outside the cave and yelled for a while, except for Lin Tao Nothing else answered him. "Did I hear it wrong?" He scratched his head, "Obviously I heard Mr. Hu talking and grandpa's voice... Could it be... I had a weird dream the first day I slept on the ground... Did I say, grandpa is so open-minded How can people sigh..." He said to himself, shaking his hands and going back to sleep.
The boy of the earth wolf walked back to the cave, two old men appeared under a tree in the woods, they looked at each other and sighed in unison. When it was dark, the two old men disappeared without a trace...
The second day, the third day... Day by day, Brother Liu studied harder and harder, and Hu Lisheng's attitude became much more kind and serious. When the instructor stopped trying to make things difficult, Brother Liu quickly absorbed the knowledge he had learned with his own mind and understanding.
"Sir..."
When Hu Lisheng finished teaching for a day and was about to leave as usual, Brother Liu stopped him. Hu Lisheng has always been unsmiling and asked indifferently, "What?"
"Sir," Brother Liu gathered up his courage and asked, "Do you know when my grandfather will be back?"
"What is this for?"
"No, it's nothing, I dreamed about my grandfather the day before yesterday, so I just asked." Brother Liu was afraid of Hu Lisheng, so he hurriedly lowered his head.
"I don't know, I'll come back when it's time to come back." Hu Lisheng said coldly, turned around and left.
"...for nothing..." Brother Liu stuck out his tongue and pouted in the direction of Hu Lisheng's disappearance. "And he said that he was a friend of Grandpa, and he didn't even have half the kindness of Grandpa." He sat on the grass. Counting pebbles is so boring... "Why isn't grandpa coming back soon, I want to learn illusion and show him off..."
There was a sound of "crashing" and "crashing" in the bushes. Brother Liu thought that some beast was coming, so he jumped up and prepared.
"Moo..." With a long cry, a huge animal came out.
"Cow!" Brother Liu pointed at the other party excitedly and called, "I know you, you are a cow!"
"What happened to the cow?" A strange questioning voice came from the direction of the cow.
"Talking bull! Bull demon!" Brother Liu corrected his answer.
"Who is the monster? You are the monster!" The voice became angry, and a child emerged from the bushes behind the cow. He was dark-skinned, with a hat on his head and a whip in his hand.
"One person!" Brother Liu continued to call.
"You're the only one!" The child saw that Brother Liu was a monster, so he didn't dare to come over for a while, and screamed while pulling his neck.
"Let's be alone," Brother Liu corrected. He asked curiously, "Man, what are you doing? Is this head your prey? Give me some to eat, and I'll give you a pheasant, okay?" He licked his lips as he spoke—there was a The big advantage is that the variety of food is a thousand times richer than the underground, I really want to taste the taste of the beef that is slaughtered.
"Don't want to eat our cows!" The child shouted and flashed his whip, "Don't come here, or I will teach you a lesson!" In the land of Qingqiu, humans and monsters are used to living together, and they are not afraid of each other. , This kid is not very afraid of Liu Ge, and he is going to fight this monster who just wants to eat his cow for 300 rounds.
"People are really stingy." Brother Liu pouted, sitting under the tree, cooking chicken, cooking tea and roasting hares, but reluctantly glanced at the cow again.
The child led the cow for a few laps in the woods, although he didn't know where to go, he heard a few tiger roars in the distance, shivered, and leaned towards Brother Liu involuntarily, "Hey, monster Brother, do you know how to go down the mountain?"
"I don't know, I haven't gone down the mountain," Brother Liu replied honestly, "Why don't you fly down?"
"Flying?"
Brother Liu made a flapping motion to demonstrate.
"I'm not a monster how can I fly?" The child scratched his head, "We humans can't fly."
"Whoever said that, my grandfather will fly."
"Your grandfather is a monster!"
"He's human."
"Liar, you are obviously a monster." The child looked at Brother Liu's paws, tail and red eyes and said, "I know you are a dog!"
"My name is Earth Wolf! Who is Earth Dog!"
"Your ears and tail are the same as mine!"
"What is a **** wang?"
"Dog!"
Although he doesn't know much about the species on the ground, Brother Liu still knows that "dog" is a kind of animal used to scold people. What an aloof, intelligent, united race that dares to confuse wolves with dogs! (He must be the one who has never seen a wolf or a dog~~~~) How dare this person call me a dog? He scolded him back, people, people, people like what, "You are a harmless! You look like harmless!" Brother Liu responded with the most "vicious" adjective.
"Woundless... is also a kind of monster, right? I've seen it before. It's very beautiful and powerful. If only I could be like them." Human children are full of longing for the power of monsters.
"You imagine Wushang!" Brother Liu swallowed, "Wushang is the most shameless, vile, cruel, despicable monster... (5000 words omitted), what are you doing like them?"
"Who said that?" The child rolled his eyes at him, "The Wushang I've seen are obviously very kind, and they help Aunt Zhou to heal her injuries, and they are also very fair when doing business. People in our village like them very much! "
"You deal with Wushang! You will be deceived, stolen, and robbed!" Brother Liu was worried about their kindness and ignorance.
"I don't believe you!" The child looked at Brother Liu, "Wu Shang has always treated us well, but you want to eat my cow!"
"I didn't eat it again." Brother Liu grabbed the roasted rabbit and stuffed it in his hand, "Come on, let me eat it for you, I'll treat you well too, right? Don't believe it's harmless in the future."
The child generously ate Brother Liu's roasted rabbit and boiled chicken soup. After drinking his tea, he wiped his mouth and said, "I still believe that there is no injury, and you will not take me down the mountain."
"Cheat food and drink!" Brother Liu's eyes widened. Humans are really cunning. Fortunately, my grandfather wasn't like that. But speaking of it...he remembered what he was sniffing hard, and suddenly pointed at the child and jumped up: "You're not human! Your smell is completely different from your grandfather's!" What has changed!"
"What are you doing!" the child cried and opened his hand in pain.
"You're not human!" Brother Liu stared at him.
"You're not human!" The child intuitively took this sentence as a curse.
"Of course I'm not!" Brother left to show him his paws, "But what are you? Tell me now."
"I am human!"
"No!"
"Where not!"
"Taste!"
With a bang, the child rushed out a few feet and hid behind the cow, "What do you want to do? What are your intentions! I tell you, my mother won't let you go if you eat me!"
"Who's going to eat you! I mean the smell--much to my husband! You're not human at all!"
"Your grandfather is not human! He is a dog like you!"
"My grandfather is a human!"
"No! He must look just like you."
"No! He's human!"
“…”
When Brother Liu and the human child were arguing inconclusively, there was a little fire on the hillside, and people's voices were also called: "Little calf, calf..."
"Cow...where are you?"
"Cow..."
"I'm calling you." Brother Liu pushed the nonchalant cow.
"It's calling me!" The human child stomped angrily, "I'm called a calf, it's called a rhubarb!"
Brother Liu scratched his head in confusion.
"Father, mother! Fifth uncle, sixth aunt, seventh brother... I am here!"
Brother Liu waved his hand and used a spell, so that the voice of the calf was sent out with the wind, directly to the ears of those holding torches.
"The calf... my son..."
A large group of people came here and surrounded Xiao Niu and Rhubarb, and some of the women even cried. Xiao Niu pointed and talked about chasing Jing Niu and running into the forest in the crowd. I got lost, how did I meet the dog, "He even gave me rabbits and chickens, but he said he was not a dog!" He introduced Brother Liu to everyone.
"Mr. Earth Wolf, thank you for taking care of the children in our village." A man who looked like a leader came over and saluted Brother Liu.
Brother Liu hurriedly returned the gift - being called "Mr." was the first time in his life - he was dealing with so many humans for the first time, and he really wanted to make a good impression on him. "You're too polite, everyone is a citizen of this land, and mutual assistance is deserved." Brother Liu politely returned a salute to the other party.
Everyone came forward and said a lot of words of gratitude to Brother Liu. One of the men insisted on inviting Brother Liu to the village to entertain him. After Brother Liu refused, he insisted on taking a man named Da Huang. The cow is given to Brother Liu. Although Brother Liu was drooling over this cow just now, he is embarrassed to ask for it now. After repeatedly pushing it away, the humans took the cow and left.
"That's right," Brother Liu remembered another thing, and shouted to the humans, "Does your village usually trade with Wushang right?"
The atmosphere in the crowd suddenly became solemn, and it took a long while for a human to answer: "Yes."
"I think you are all good people, so I want to remind you that Wushang is a very scary and cruel monster. You must not be deceived by them!" Brother Liu reminded kindly.
Humans, look at me, I look at you, and laugh together.
"By the way, you belong to the wolf clan..." The man who looked like a leader said, "Thank you for your reminder, but for us, Wushang is a good friend and trading partner. If the earth wolves are good friends for races other than the harmless, please forgive us for not participating in your two races' comments on each other." After speaking, he saluted Brother Liu again, and walked away with the clan. .
"What do you mean?" Brother Liu didn't understand, and he sniffed the smell left by the human beings again - it's strange, how can they not smell like humans? Grandpa came back and asked him? Maybe a special breed of people, "one day, two days, three days," he began to snap his fingers, "why isn't grandpa coming back?"
Brother Liu held his breath and watched Hu Lisheng stab at the place where he was standing with his sword. Hu Lisheng's sword was fast and ruthless, with the sound of wind hanging from the sword, and took Brother Liu's chest straight - not to mention that Brother Liu couldn't use "dodge" to deal with this attack. He couldn't dodge this trick either - Brother Liu closed his eyes, the long sword passed through his chest, and his body trembled involuntarily.
Of course, Hu Lisheng couldn't see all this. He put away his sword and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, you did it."
Brother Liu's body grew out of nothing and gradually appeared in front of Hu Lisheng, still with a frightened look on his face.
"According to the agreement, you have learned illusion within five days. I can teach you another spell. What do you want to learn?" Hu Lisheng asked.
"Learn..." Brother Liu hadn't come out of the surprise just now and the fact that he had already learned illusion, and he couldn't think of what he wanted to learn for a while.
"Tell me when you think about it."
"I..." Brother Liu gritted his teeth, "I don't study anymore, but in exchange, please tell me where my grandfather went? When will he come back?"
Hu Lisheng didn't expect Brother Liu to say this at all. He was stunned and said, "He will be back in a few days. Why should you give up a chance to learn spells from me?"
Brother Liu shook his head: "Even if my grandfather comes back tomorrow, I would like to know, I don't regret it! Also, and... I don't think my grandfather will come back... So, so..."
"I don't know where he went? When will he come back? The promise to teach you spells is still valid. Come to me when you think about it." After Hu Lisheng said coldly, he turned and walked into the jungle. .
He obviously knew and didn't tell me! Brother Liu clenched his fist. For some reason, the feeling in his heart that his grandfather would not come back became stronger and stronger, which cast a haze on his elated mood that he should have learned the illusion.
Three months passed before I knew it, Brother Liu would sneak to the ground every day to have a look, but Ren Shang never came back. Hu Lisheng promised that he could go to the residence of the Nine-Tailed Fox to find him after he thought about what spell he wanted to learn, and he never came back. The items in the cave were left to accumulate dust, and no matter how Brother Liu cleaned up, it still looked desolate.
"Liar! My grandfather is a liar!" Brother Liu rubbed the grass on the ground with both hands, throwing the roots and soil everywhere, "It was clearly said that he would come back in three or five days, but it turned out that thirty to fifty days have passed! Big liar !!”
If only I had paid attention to inquiring where my grandfather lived, at least I could find him myself.
"Liu Ge'er, Liu Ge'er!" Shen Zhu shouted and got out of the ground. He followed Leifeng closely behind him, looking very strange.
"Why..." Brother Liu agreed weakly.
"Why are you on the ground again?" Shen Zhu carefully jumped over a clump of plants and ran to Brother Liu.
"That's a thorn, if you don't touch it, it won't bite..." Brother Liu told Shen Zhu not to be afraid of that thing. Leifeng, however, did not believe in evil, and insisted on reaching out to the clump of plants, and then shouted, "Brother Liu is a liar, this thing won't bite, it stabs people!"
Brother Liu smiled smugly, he knew that when he heard something biting, Leifeng had to touch it.
Shen Zhu shrugged. He is not very interested in the things on the ground. Although he is allowed to come on the ground as an adult wolf, unless he follows the caravan to trade with the ground species, he is never willing to come on the ground. The sun was shining, the wind was blowing, and I was frightened by unknown animals and plants. Brother Liu didn't know what was wrong, but he liked coming to the ground so much. "Why do you come here every day? Don't you know where the Tianhu lives? Just go see him, why are you waiting here?"
"You don't understand at all..." Brother Liu sighed, resting his head on his paws. If you can find Ren Shang in the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, it would be fine, but unfortunately it is impossible...
"Brother Liu, do you know that we are going to fight Wushang?" Leifeng pulled the thorns out by the roots, and then he remembered his purpose.
"What?" Brother Liu sat up all of a sudden, "War? I didn't hear about it!"
"Isn't there a mining area in the west of our clan? We have been mining there for a long time, but recently there have been frequent occurrences of no injuries. Not only did they steal the ore, but also injured several clan members!" Shen Zhu clenched his hands, " Shameless!"
"Where is the jade mine..." Brother Liu remembered, "Isn't there a human on the ground mining it?"
"Humans gave up that mine more than ten years ago. The vein is too deep for them to mine." Shen Zhu gave Brother Liu a white look, "Why don't you know anything!"
"I'm not interested in being a miner. I want to be a hunter in the future, just like my father." Brother Liu said confidently.
"I heard from the elders and gentlemen that they want you to become a teacher in the clan in the future, but you don't ask about anything except martial arts and magic. How can you be a teacher like this." Shen Zhu said regretfully.
"I will be a hunter."
Leifeng immediately echoed loudly: "Yes, it's very interesting to be a hunter!"
"That would be a waste of Liu Ge'er's skillful magic."
"What is waste, is hunting very wasteful? Next time I catch the prey, I won't give it to you again!" Lei Feng shouted.
"Okay, okay, you can hunt with spells, and you can also use spells for hunting." Brother Liu hurriedly smoothed things out. One of Shen Zhu and Leifeng believed that being a hunter was the best career, while the other believed that a hunter was better, and they would quarrel non-stop when they talked about this. At this time, a hare ran into their sight, and Brother Liu cast a spell to kill the rabbit and said to the two of them: "This is prey on the ground, it can be roasted and eaten."
"Look, let's make materials for hunters!" Lei Feng exclaimed happily.
"It would be better to be a teacher and teach more people."
The two were bickering there again, until Brother Liu really started a fire and started roasting meat and stewing soup, and they were attracted to it.
"It's delicious, right? We can't eat something like this underground, do you want to drink tea?"
"What is tea?"
"Try it." Brother Liu squinted and poured tea for them.
A few seconds later, both Shen Zhu and Lei Feng let out a strange cry and spit out the drink in their mouths. "Brother Liu, you are poisoning!"
"Hahahahaha..." Brother Liu laughed smugly, but under the sight of Shen Zhu and Leifeng killing people, he quickly changed to an innocent look, "This is tea, from the ground. All races drink this."
Shen Zhu and Lei Feng didn't speak, they looked at each other and rushed towards Brother Liu while holding their knuckles together.
The three teenagers were full. Shen Zhu and Leifeng watched Brother Liu drink tea from left to right after dinner, and shook their heads. Seeing his leisurely appearance, Shen Zhu finally couldn't help it: " Brother Liu, can you really drink that kind of thing?"
"It's delicious, Mr. Hu gave it to me, I heard it's a famous tea!"
"...I really don't know you more and more..." Shen Zhu shook her head, "What exactly is in your head?"
"Brain." Brother Liu answered truthfully.
Shen Zhu gave him a white look, and after a while she asked, "Do you think the elders will allow us to go to war?"
"Is it safe?"
"It's just no damage!" Leifeng shouted, "I asked my father, but he wouldn't say anything! We're not children anymore! Let's go to war."
"Brother Liu, go back and ask Uncle Jing Shi to see if he knows who he will send."
"It turned out to be looking for me to inquire about the news." Brother Liu understood their intention, "but I think so?" Brother Liu said thoughtfully, "If there is a war recently, there will be two in the clan. If the caravan did not come back, there are not enough manpower, so most likely they will ask us to help.”
"I'm nervous and excited!" Lei Feng smashed his palm with his fist, "I really want to try the kung fu spell I learned on Wu Shuang as soon as possible!"
Brother Liu looked at him with a puzzled look: "Why are you afraid that the world will not be in chaos! Why are you looking forward to war."
"No injuries! Don't you want to?" Shen Zhu patted his hand and asked cheerfully.
"Think!" Brother Liu shot back his hand, "I also want to show my skills to let the innocents know how powerful the Earth Wolf is! But... I always don't want us to start the trouble... because ..."
"Because of what?"
"Because Wuhu has a good reputation in the eyes of the terrestrial species, I am afraid that if we start the provocation first, it will affect the reputation of the terrestrial species in the earth wolf land."
"Impossible, how could the type of Wushang have a good reputation in the minds of other types, you have too much heart! Who told you!" Leifeng laughed loudly.
"Humans, humans told me." Brother Liu frowned worriedly, pointed to the small village that could be seen through the tree gap and said, "Humans there, they are making deals with harmless, they Said that he likes Wushuang and also likes our wolves, so he doesn't want to be involved in the disputes between our two clans."
"That village?" Shen Zhu pointed at the village and stammered, "They, they are also trading with us, they, us, I went to my father's caravan once..."
"I know." Brother Liu said with his hands on his cheeks, "I often watch them here and know a lot about them."
"They even have a deal with us without injury at the same time! I have to go back and tell the elders! Despicable!" Lei Feng called.
"The elders all know." Brother Liu said.
"What?" Shen Zhu grabbed Brother Liu and shook her anxiously and incomprehensibly, "Why this! Those humans, they, they..."
"They never mention Wushang in front of us, right? Similarly, I think they must never mention us in front of Wushang. The elders also understand, Wushang must understand— -It's like a routine...Shen Zhu, I've never figured it out, is the grievance between us and Wushang ridiculous in their eyes?"
"How... can they not tell right from wrong?"
"Right or wrong..." This is what Brother Liu can't figure out the most, "The battle between the earth wolf and Wu Huo, in the eyes of a third party, who is right and wrong..."
The three teenagers stood there without speaking for a while, each thinking about something they couldn't understand...
"Brother Liu, you have to follow your father firmly, do you know that?" Geng Niang ordered for the 200th time while arranging the armor for Brother Liu.
"I know, I know." Brother Liu replied impatiently, "Don't worry, mother, I will bring you back with an uninjured head."
"What I want is for you to bring yourself back!"
"Know."
"Xiang Gong, my son has been handed over to you. If he loses a hair, I will try my best to come back with you!" Geng Niang said and began to wipe her tears.
"We're going to fight, so don't cry like this, okay?" Jing Shi coaxed his wife, "Brother Liu is very capable, it will be fine!"
"But the other party is innocent. Who knows what those innocents will do!"
"Mom, I'm not afraid!"
"I'd rather you be afraid, and only know how to be careful. It's better than just rushing forward without knowing what's going on!" Gengniang immediately refuted it.
Jing Shi and Brother Liu looked at each other, and both obediently shut their mouths, because Brother Liu is going to accompany the team to fight Wushang, and Gengniang has been restless since early in the morning. As long as she was either reprimanded or cried, the father and son were so frightened that they had to stop talking, and after a long time, they hurried out of the house.
After walking a long way, looking back and seeing her mother still looking at the door, Brother Liu waved to her, turned the corner quickly, walked to a place she couldn't see, reached out and wiped his face, wet, it turned out that he was also cried.
"No promise!" Jing Shi slapped him **** the shoulder.
"Who is worthless! I can't bear to see my mother cry! I am filial!"
"Yes, yes, my son is so filial!"
"Father."
"Why?"
"Have you killed a lot without taking any damage?"
"...a lot."
"What do they...do?"
"It's not hurt, what else can I do!"
"...Father, I have a family, parents and children. Is it the same as us? Or is it another way?"
"Probably similar to me?"
"They also have parents and children, as well as brothers and friends. They also cry in pain. Why do they kill other people's relatives for no reason! Dad, I must find those murderers to avenge Uncle Gao and the others!" He clenched his fists, his body trembling slightly.
A few days ago, a group of wolves attacked a group of wolves that were mining in the mining area without any damage or warning. First, these wolves had no defense. Second, most of them were miners with no combat experience. After fighting each other, only one earth wolf was seriously injured and returned to the clan at the last breath. When he finished describing what happened, he also died because of his severe injuries - this earth wolf was Liu Ge's good friend Kui'er. Father is tall. If Brother Liu was once shaken for a moment by the attitude of the race on the ground, now he has made up his mind to fight Wuhu until the race is wiped out.
Among the large group of fighters, Brother Liu and his group of little brothers looked very immature. This would be their first confrontation with Wuhu, and it was an opportunity they desperately won. Now their hearts will be filled with hatred and blood, and they will completely forget the panic of their first battle.
"We're all by your side." Leifeng put his hand on Ku'er's shoulder, and beside them stood fully-armed teenagers: Brother Liu, Shen Zhu, Yu... and those who had been with them for a while People who didn't get along well, but now the hatred for Wu Huo unites them, and the small unhappiness between them has long been thrown out of Jiuxiaoyun.
"We want revenge!" Brother Liu raised his glass and drank it and fell heavily on the ground.
"Yes, together with Gao'er, we will advance and retreat together with life and death!"
"Avenge Uncle Gao!"
"We are not afraid of anything!"
The boys shouted loudly as they clasped their hands together and made their vows. The parents watched them quietly, recalling their youth, and growing up like this, becoming more united and closer to each other, and taking the family more important.
This time, apart from Brother Liu and his group of little brothers, there are also two teenagers - brothers Zhi and Zhike.
They are always incompatible with Brother Liu and the others, sitting alone on the side with a few elders standing beside them.
Because their father once "colluded" with the Wuhu people, as the sons of traitors, they would not have been easily allowed to fight and kill without injury. It was Jingshi's efforts to fight for them that they could stand right here. But they obviously didn't feel grateful to Jing Shi for this, instead they kept looking at Brother Liu and the others with uncomfortable eyes.
"I really hate them. Why did Uncle Jingshi let them participate? If they were to have contact with Wushang, maybe they would be like their father again!" Yu whispered to Brother Liu.
"My uncle is not a traitor!" Brother Liu blurted out this sentence without knowing why, "He has never betrayed my clan!"
"But he..."
Shen Zhu pulled La Yu, not letting him go on.
Brother Liu saw that the eyes of his friends and the elders around him were all focused on him, he took a breath and said, "They don't know about their father, they just want to find an opportunity to be recognized by everyone, why not give them a chance Do they have to be forced to follow their father's path?"
His remarks caused many elders to nod their heads again and again, showing approval to him, but some people frowned.
"Why help them?" Shen Zhu whispered, "Don't you hate them too?"
"But they are my cousins after all..." Brother Liu has unknowingly changed his attitude towards Brother Zhi since he learned the truth about the uncle Ruoshi. They are Brother Ning'er, With Ning Ge'er, who once lay in her mother's arms, Ning Ge'er who died less than two months old, poor Ning Ge'er...
"You guys!" Kui He suddenly walked over to Brother Zhi, he drew his saber with a "swoosh", pointed at the two brothers and said, "If I see anything wrong with you on the battlefield, I will stab me with a sword. My father died tragically under Wushang, and now I will kill anyone who has anything to do with Wushang, I don't care if you are Liu Ge'er's cousin! Do you hear me! Be careful!"
"Gu'er, don't do this."
"Gao'er."
Friends rushed to persuade him.
"Brother Liu, you want to avenge me!" With tears in his eyes, Gao'er grabbed Brother Liu's shoulder, "I know that I have a dull talent and will never make a big battle, but Brother Liu, you are different. You are a genius that has never been seen in a thousand years, you are the hope in the hearts of the whole clan, are you willing to avenge me for killing my father?"
"Of course!" Brother Liu put his hand on his hand, "one day he will be killed without injury! Avenge Uncle Gao!"
"We follow you!"
"Follow Brother Liu and kill them all without injury!"
The little brethren shouted in awe. The elders looked at them with some gratification, some applauded, but when Jing Shi's eyes fell on his son, there was a touch of melancholy.
The fighting on the battlefield is always a hundred times crueler than what they imagined for the teenagers. The blood splattered and the screams of the enemy or one's own people, the tactile sensation when the claws were inserted into the flesh, the feeling of the teeth crunching the bones...
Brother Liu's excitement and courage at the beginning of the battle was about to be washed away into unknown corners by all this.
He scratched and wounded a total of four fighters from the other side, wounded two with magic, and rescued two wolves from the battlefield who were injured and unable to move with illusion. When he held a wolves in his arms, he came to When we put the opponent down at a place far away from the battlefield, there was a feeling in our hearts that we wanted to escape from this place. Facing the **** scene, he was not afraid, but extremely disgusted, so disgusted that he wanted to run away.
"Brother Liu, don't worry about us..." said a wolf who was rescued by him weakly, "Go help your father and them, don't let us hurt you..."
Brother Liu put all the wound medicine he had on him in his hand, and turned around to look at the battlefield: the number of wolves in the battle was similar to that of the uninjured, each with more than 50 people, and nearly half of them were already in the heat of the battle. They were injured in the fight, and three or four members of each tribe died at the hands of the other. Now that both sides have been red-eyed, the battle is getting more and more intense. Brother Liu searched for a familiar figure in the battle group: Jing Shi was standing at the front of the Earth Wolf Clan, and he still had the upper hand with one enemy against three, only to see his big sword swing. One without injury screamed and fell down, and he cut off one arm; on the other side, Shen Zhu and Yu fought back to back against Wu injury. Although there was no advantage, the party, government and army could handle it; In the distance, the situation of Zhizhike's brothers was the same, and Gu'er was eager to avenge his father, so he rushed forward with a fierce force at the beginning, and fell into the enemy's line at this time, and was unexpectedly caught by Leifeng, who was closely following him. They were separated, and they were fighting with several people without injury. With his martial arts, he couldn't stand it any longer. Leifeng and several other clansmen were trying their best to lean towards him.
"Gu'er! I'm here!"
Seeing the cake covered in blood, Brother Liu's original hesitation disappeared immediately, and he rushed forward screaming.
In the battle group layer by layer, it's easier said than done to get close to Gao'er. Brother Liu is eager to save his friends, but instead he has fallen into a hard battle. several wounds. Seeing that the scars on Ku'er's body were getting more and more serious, Brother Liu couldn't take a step forward no matter what, and couldn't help shouting anxiously.
An unhurt person pressed into the cake from the back. After the long battle, the cake was drowsy and did not notice it at all. He heard Brother Liu shouting to him to be careful, but instead looked up in the direction of Brother Liu. The gap is bigger.
"Gu'er, behind!" Brother Liu rushed forward and was hit at the same time by two uninjured people, one left and one right. He rolled on the ground several times before he could stabilize his body. His ribs suffered a sharp pain, and he even stood up for a while. If you can't get up, Gu'er is about to suffer the harmless sword.
"Duh!" Jing Shi shouted loudly, and threw the sword in his hand at the innocent who attacked the cake, then jumped up and jumped over the heads of several innocent people, hugging him with one hand. Zhu Gu'er waved his palm with one hand, pushed Wushang away from the blocks in front of him, and returned to the camp of the wolves. Jingshi handed the badly injured cake to Shen Zhu and Yu, who were also injured. After they left the battlefield together, they turned back to look for their son.
Brother Liu breathed a sigh of relief at Gao'er's safe escape. He gave his father a thumbs up and concentrated on dealing with the enemy in front of him.
As the two sides fought hard, the battle gradually came to an end. Perhaps it was really the blood and courage of Brother Liu and his group of little brothers who had just entered the battlefield.
Brother Liu raised his claws and knocked down another Wuhu, but when the Wuhu who was scratched by him on the shoulder fled, Brother Liu stopped and did not chase after him. He was tired.
Compared to Liu Ge's boredom, there are people on the other side who are deeply depressed.
The two brothers Zhigui and Zhike were fighting with Wushang in front of them, while looking at Brother Liu, with dejected expressions on their faces: They have been calculating silently, Brother Liu has seriously injured seven of the other party this time. They killed one soldier and rescued three of their own. It can be said that they are not inferior to the older soldiers, but the two brothers have nothing but their own body and scars. There are no elders and The preference of Mr. is all based on his own ability.
The two brothers looked at each other and fought forward to attack, hoping to kill at least one enemy before the battle was over, and never let Brother Liu stand alone after returning.
At this time, Wu Huo had already started to retreat, and the ones who stayed behind were two or three experienced Wu Huan warriors. One of them met the two young wolves who were eager for success.
"Zhigui, Zhike, go back!"
The cry of his father and several elders made Brother Liu look up and see the situation of Brother Zhi: they were retreating in embarrassment under the attack of a tall, innocent man with a long-handled sword. , However, when they realized that they were not the opponent's opponent, they were already entangled in the opponent's tricks, and there was no room to escape.
Wushang was angry and angry at the failure in front of him today, and obviously wanted to take the lives of the two young wolves at the end as compensation.
Brother Liu stood the closest to Brother Zhi among the wolves. He rushed towards them before he could think of anything. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that his father was also fighting hard in their direction.
"Zhigui Zhike hold on! We're here!" Jingshi shouted as he slashed.
When Zhi heard Jing Shi's shout, he immediately changed his tactics and defended with all his strength, while Zhi Ke glanced at Brother Liu angrily, but instead attacked the opponent even more desperately. Their opponents are experienced, how could they miss such an opportunity? In an instant, except for a few tricks used to stymie Zhi, most of Ling Li's attacks rushed towards Zhike.
"Zhike!" Zhigui first noticed all of this, and when he saw his brother hit three times in a row, blood spattered, he couldn't help crying.
The Wushuang used nine long handles to force Zhike away from him and slashed at Zhike again, only to hear Zhike scream, roll over and fall down, blood on his thighs, and he fell on the ground. Unable to stand up. Wushuangdao made a mistake, took Zhike down, walked to and from get off work, and slashed at Zhike.
"Zhike!" Brother Liu suddenly jumped to Zhike's side, hugged him and rolled on the spot, slashing the air without injury, followed by another slash. Brother Liu and Zhike couldn't escape. Brother Liu pressed Zhike against himself, and before he could do anything else, the knife had already cut him.
This Wushangxiang was in a hurry with this knife. He originally thought he would cut the two wolves in front of him into two pieces together. Who knew that the moment the knife fell on Brother Liu, Brother Liu and him hugged him tightly. Zhike, who was wearing it, faded away, and disappeared under his knife. He stood upright without injury, and saw only a few bloodstains on the blade of the knife, and half a piece of clothes flew on the ground.
"Liu Ge'er, Zhike!" Jing Shi rushed over, brandishing his long sword.
The innocents had no intention of fighting, they retreated while resisting, and slowly withdrew from the battlefield.
"Liu Ge'er! Zhike! Liu Ge'er..." Although he knew that his son had used an illusion, Jingshi was still heartbroken when he saw the blood spilled on the ground - he had clearly seen the uninjured That knife had indeed been cut on Brother Liu.
"Father... we're all fine." Following Brother Liu's voice, the figures of him and Zhike gradually appeared in front of everyone.
Zhike was protected by Brother Liu, her eyes were a little dull due to the shock, but she did not suffer more damage, but Brother Liu was very embarrassed. Half of his clothes had been taken away by the knife, revealing a **** wound on his waist. The knife that slashed him diagonally even exposed his ribs.
"Keep your brother, keep your brother!"
"Oh my God! Stay brother!"
"Brother stay..."
The wolves who cared about Brother Liu rushed up, and even Kui'er, who was seriously injured, struggled to pounce on him, carried Brother Liu away from the battlefield, and hurriedly bandaged him.
Jing Shi followed behind everyone with Zhi Ke in his arms. His eyes were also fixed on his son. Only Zhi Gui had all his thoughts on Zhi Ke. Wiped in cold sweat.
Zhike kept looking at Brother Liu without blinking.
"Zhike, how are you? Zhike, does it hurt..." Zhi asked anxiously.
Instead, Zhike pressed the front of his shirt and motioned him to see Brother Liu. Consistently following his gaze, he was dazed for a while, then showed a clear expression, and the two brothers smiled knowingly at each other.
Brother Liu reluctantly stood up, looked at his father, patted Ku'er's hand, and looked at Brother Zhi. He saw that the two brothers were smiling at him, so he smiled as well. He saved Zhike's life this time, probably making them understand that he really has no ill will towards him. In any case, they are connected by blood, and Brother Liu still hopes to reconcile with them.
The wolves carried the bodies of the wounded and the dead, and after counting the unwounded bodies, they also left this abandoned mining area, leaving only bloodstains and stumps on the ground to prove what happened just now. **** battle.
Brother Liu lay on the stretcher that two friends insisted to carry for him, and gradually fell asleep with the rhythm of walking and shaking, but there was a lingering smell of blood in his dream, which made him fall asleep. frowned...
Lying in bed all day due to injury, life will naturally pass slowly.
Brother Liu had to sit sideways against the pillow because of the wound on his waist, flipping through a book in his hand and pouting in a bored manner. When he came back from a serious injury, Geng Niang must have cried a lot, swept her anger on Jing Shi, and locked Brother Liu in the room forbid him to move around. In the first few days, due to his injury, Brother Liu couldn't move even if he wanted to, and he was still safe. When his injury was a little less severe, he couldn't lie down. He wanted to go for a walk on the ground. In a word, if you are not allowed to go to the ground, Brother Liu was tightly surrounded by this mother's heart on the bed for more than ten days.
"I'm bored!" Brother Liu threw the book in his hand to the ground forcefully. After a while, he realized that he would be even more bored without the book, so he stretched out his hand, took the book back into his hand, and turned He started to sigh again.
"It's really disrespectful and doesn't come to see me..." Brother Liu began to complain about his friends.
Although several of his friends were also injured, the injuries were not serious. They recovered after a few days of recuperation. At first, they came to visit Brother Liu every day, but after Brother Liu's injury gradually improved, they each had something to do. Made it thin.
"Hey, I can't go to the ground either. I don't know if my grandfather is back?" He thought of Renshang and began to sigh. ?
Lying down thinking wildly, the door opened and a few people walked in.
"Sir, Dad, Zhi, Zhike..." Brother Liu hurriedly sat up to greet him.
Jing Shi walked in first, Su Xin followed his hand, and Brother Zhi stopped at the door and did not move forward. Su Xin would come to visit Brother Liu every three times, but although Brother Liu saved Zhike's life, the two Zhigui brothers never showed up in front of his sickbed. I don't know why they came today. It was just that the four of them all had a sullen face, not because they came to visit the doctor. Brother Liu sensitively realized that something was wrong, he just smiled and said hello and stopped talking. He sat on the edge of the bed and watched everyone.
"What's wrong?" Gengniang came in from outside, looked at Jing Shi, and then at Su Xin, "Mr. Su Xin is also here, why didn't he ask him to sit down." He complained about Jing Shi, and went to help himself. Su Xin moved the chair.
"Don't bother my sister-in-law," Su Xin hurriedly stopped her, and then looked at Zhigui and Zhike sternly, "You can say what you said here in front of your uncles and aunts, and when it's time to stay brother! "
Zhigui and Zhike bowed their heads and said nothing.
They originally went to Su Xin in private to talk about things. Unexpectedly, Su Xin found Jing Shi immediately after hearing it, and brought them to Brother Liu to confront him. Although the two brothers had always resented Brother Liu, Jingshi and Gengniang really had nothing to say about them, and Brother Liu had just saved Zhike's life, so it was a bit embarrassing for them to say those words in person.
"What's going on?" Brother Liu couldn't help but ask, looking at this posture, he guessed that something happened to the two brothers to embarrass him, and he couldn't help but get angry, "What else are you going to do? Don't you know how to write the word 'Anfen'?" They thought their attitude towards him would change after he rescued Zhike, but he didn't expect them to be so boring telling stories, so he couldn't help but keep his brother from getting angry.
"Humph, let's talk!" Su Xin glanced at Brother Liu with something that Brother Liu couldn't tell, then stared at Brother Zhi, forcing them to speak.
"He!" Zhike gritted his teeth and made up his mind, stepped forward and pointed at Brother Liu and said, "He is not 'Brother Liu' at all, but 'Brother Ning'!"
The room suddenly fell silent.
For a long time, Brother Liu also blinked and asked, "What are you talking about? Who am I not Brother Liu?"
"You are Ning Ge'er, the **** innocent bastard! It was the second uncle and second aunt who replaced their own son's name with you after his death!"
"What nonsense are you talking about! Brother Ning is already dead!"
"It wasn't him who died, it was Brother Liu. I've been wondering for a long time, how could Brother Ning, who is healthy and strong, get sick and die overnight, and how could Brother Liu, who was born sick and crooked? Maybe it's getting so healthy every day? - Don't look at me when I was young, but I'm not stupid, I remember everything clearly, I thought it was the second uncle who killed the relatives and quietly killed the **** bastard, but the former I saw this so-called 'Brother Liu' wound a few days ago, and I know that's not the case!" He pointed to Brother Liu and said word by word, "There are scales under his hair!"
Brother Liu couldn't help touching his wound. After the injury, he did see a few scales near his wound, but like the Dr. Earth Wolf who healed him, he thought it was splashed by the enemy and didn't go at all. He has taken care of it, and usually the wound dressing and dressing are done by his mother, and he will not care about it. Have scales on yourself? He hurriedly looked at his arms and upper body, the black fur was soft and thick, and the skin underneath was where there were scales? Don't you know that you have scales on your body?
"On his lower back, there is a wound there! We all saw it!" Zhi Ye said.
Brother Liu took off the bandage a few times, but he couldn't see his lower back and looked to his parents for help.
Su Xin took a step, but Gengniang opened her arms to block him: "Sir, how can you listen to their nonsense! Brother Liu is my biological son, could I be mistaken? He was so badly injured, How can I take off the bandage, how can..." Then he stepped forward and hurriedly bandaged Brother Liu.
"Sir, do you still remember what color Liu Ge'er was when he was born? It was brown, but now he is black, don't you think it's strange?"
"That was when he was ill when he was a child, and then..." Gengniang was busy explaining.
Su Xin can't remember what kind of brother Liu was like when she was a child, and she is a little puzzled.
"Sir, do you still remember that Brother Liu was born with insufficiency when he was a child and was always sick, but Brother Ning is very strong, how could it have all changed overnight?"
Brother Liu couldn't help shivering when he heard these words. He clearly remembered that his mother said that "Ning Ge'er" was the child who was born with insufficiency and was sickly.
"If what we said wasn't true, why didn't he let us see it!" Zhike said, looking at Brother Liu defiantly.
"Look! I'm not afraid!" Brother Liu reached out and pulled the bandage on his body again.
"No, stay brother, no!" Gengniang quickly held his hand, "I can't take off the bandage, I can't show them..."
"Mother, I haven't done anything wrong, what am I afraid of?"
"No, you don't understand! No!" Gengniang pressed his hand tightly, preventing him from removing the bandage.
"Are they telling the truth? Mother! Let me see! Mother!"
"You are my biological son! How could my mother be wrong? How could my mother be wrong..."
"Then don't be afraid to let them see!" Brother Liu couldn't help shouting at his mother.
"Brother Liu, why don't you understand, you are my mother's baby... why don't you understand..." Gengniang started crying as she spoke.
"Brother Jing Shi..." Su Xin turned to Jing Shi.
"Don't look at it." Jing Shi's face was pale, and he wanted to wave his hand, but he lifted it halfway and dropped it. "I tell you the truth."
"The dead child is really Liu brother?"
Shizuoka nodded silently.
"No, Xianggong, that's not the case, don't talk nonsense!" Gengniang cried, and the queen hugged Brother Liu tightly, as if she was afraid that he would escape.
"Don't tell me the truth until you leave your brother naked and embarrassed?" Jing Shi asked in a deep voice.
"Plop!" Brother Liu shook his body and fell to the ground. Gengniang hurried to hug him, and finally let him sit back on the bed. Brother Liu looked at Gengniang and Jingshi, the family of three stared at each other, silent.
"I...really not my parents' child?" Brother Liu asked this sentence after his lips twitched for a long time.
"...It's time to tell the truth!" Shizuishi let out a long sigh.
In those days, although Jingshi and Gengniang were married at the behest of their parents, the husband and wife were harmonious and they felt deeply. Soon after, Gengniang became pregnant. At that time, it was Ruoshi who lived on the ground, no longer When returning home, one day Wakaishi's wife, Zhigui Zhike's mother, came to the house to fight with her mother-in-law because of Wakaishi's long absence. ), as a concubine, Geng Niang naturally stepped forward to dissuade her. Under the pull, she was heavily pushed to the ground by Zhigui's mother (Zhigui brothers' dry and narrow personality is inherited from their mother, which is also the free and easy follow-up. The biggest reason why the sexual Wakaishi can't get along with this hairy wife anyway). Gengniang's fall caused the fetal qi to move, so that the fetus came to the world prematurely after only seven months, and then the elder sister-in-law revealed that the uncle was colluding with Wushang, the mother-in-law was seriously ill, and a series of family accidents made Gengniang seriously ill. In one scene, when she was finally rescued by the doctor, she was told that she could no longer have children. The thing that hit her harder was her son, the little life who came to the world too early. She didn't even have the strength to breastfeed. The mother immediately understood that she would lose her only child at any time. She hugged him every day, prayed that he would survive, and spent her days in torment. She named the child Brother Liu, hoping that the child could "stay" and grow up safely...
While Gengniang was in so much pain, Wakaishi died, and Jingshi returned home with a child.
This is the exact opposite of Brother Liu, a healthy and energetic child, crying loudly, waving his little hands vigorously, and kicking his calves. Seeing him makes Gengniang realize that her child cannot be owned by her for a long time. of.
"Let Brother Ning, let my grandson live..." Jing Shi's mother was already seriously ill in bed. When she learned of the death of her eldest son, she confronted Xiang Jing, the child with innocent blood. After Shi ordered such a sentence, he sighed and died.
Less than two hours after my grandmother died, Brother Liu also stopped breathing, ending his short fifty-two days of life.
Bereavement of brother, mother, child...
A series of blows knocked Shizuoka down, and his hair was more than half white overnight.
"Save my child!"
"Let my grandson live!"
When the clansmen found out that he was taking in Wakaishi and the innocent bastard, they came to the door one after another, only these two words were left in his mind. He took the baby's body from his wife and handed it over to the tribe, saying "Ning Ge'er is dead."
Yes, it was Ning Ge'er who died, and the other child will grow up safely and healthy as a stay brother.
At first, Geng Niang couldn't accept this. She cried and wanted to get her child's body back. She would never take a look at the child named Ning Ge'er. She would not hold him, feed him, and would not forget herself. The tragedy was caused by the child's father.
Until one day, she was worried about the child's crying, and went to the bed to give a few words of reprimand, but as soon as she entered the child's grandmother, she saw that the child suddenly stopped crying and smiled sweetly After being left out for a long time, he cleverly stretched out his small paws towards this mother-like person, and stuck out his small tongue to please him, trying to attract the other person's attention to him.
"Liu Ge'er..." Geng Niang cried and took the child into her arms...
In this way, the one who survived the two children became Liu Ge'er. Fortunately, this child who was bleeding without injury did not have any characteristics of no injury. No clansman remembered Liu Ge's child. No matter what, he grew up smoothly, smart and clever, and was even hailed as a genius by the clan. Just when Jingshi and Gengniang thought he could live a peaceful life, Brother Zhi revealed the mystery based on his childhood memories. the truth of the matter.
"I don't believe it, I'm Brother Liu, I'm not an uninjured child! I'm Brother Liu!" Brother Liu shouted, and suddenly broke the wound with too much force, and the bandage was soaked with blood immediately.
"Of course you are Brother Liu! You are my child, who dares to harm you, I will be the first to forgive him!" Jing Shi stepped in front of Brother Liu and patted him on the shoulder, "Son , I'm already as tall as my father before I know it. But no matter how old you are, I'll always be my son. I'm your father, and the sky won't change! You know what!"
"Yeah." Brother Liu choked and nodded vigorously. At this time, all kinds of feelings were tumbling in his heart, and he couldn't tell what he felt.
"Ms. Geng," Jing Shi pulled his wife, the three of them stood side by side, facing Su Xin, Jing Shi said: "Su Xin, what do you want to do, we are a family of three, we have to be together in life and death. .”
Su Xin did not speak, looked at them quietly, and asked, "Brother Liu, what do you think about yourself?"
"I don't care! I'm not someone else, I'm brother Liu! No matter who asks, it's the same! I hate Wushang, I don't believe that I have innocent blood! What do you want me to say! Let me admit myself and that Does it matter?" Brother Liu snarled slyly.
"I think so too." Su Xin said slowly, "My clan raised you, and I don't believe that you will betray the clan because of those past events."
"Of course I won't! I have no reason to betray the clan!" Brother Liu was angry and anxious, "I am an earth wolf, and I will always be an earth wolf!"
"Yes, Earth Wolf," Su Xin nodded, "Brother Liu, you are Mr.'s most proud student, can you promise Mr.? No matter what, don't let Mr. down!"
"How often have I let you down!"
"Yes, you have never let your husband down, and you will never let him down." Su Xin showed a loving smile, "Brother Liu is a genius of the earth wolf clan and will never disappoint my clan."
Jing Shi was slightly relieved to hear what he said.
"Brother Jing Shi, who else but the six of us knows about this?"
Shizuoka shook his head.
"Okay!" Su Xin clapped his palms together, "Everyone remember, this matter is never allowed to be said again, let him rot in our stomachs all his life! Brother Liu is an earth wolf, always! Remember! "His eyes fell on Brother Liu for a long time, Brother Liu couldn't help feeling warm, and tears fell.
"But..." Brother Zhi couldn't help but say something after hearing Su Xin's unexpected words.
"You two!" Su Xin also turned his eyes to them, "Brother Jing Shi has always treated you well, and Brother Liu has just saved Zhike's life, yet you can turn your face ruthlessly and avenge your revenge here. It's so obvious! From now on, give me a little peace of mind. If any rumors about Brother Liu reach my ears in the future, I will be the first to kill you!"
"Sir..." Brother Liu never imagined that Su Xin, who has always been strict, would say such a thing, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
"Brother Liu, no matter what, this time Mr. is on your side. Even if you are Wakaishi and the innocent child, Mr. will regard you as the pride of our clan."
"Sir... I was angry with you because you were too strict... and said bad things about you..." Brother Liu burst into tears, "You are so kind to me..."
"Silly boy, how can you be a gentleman without being angry or scolded by students." Su Xin patted his head, bowed to Jing Shi and his wife, and left with brother Zhi. I have to reprimand the two brothers.
Only the family of three were left in the house.
Geng Niang still hugged Brother Liu tightly and refused to let go, while Jing Shi and Brother Liu looked at each other with tears in their eyes. "..." Before he could say anything, he suddenly slanted and fell down.
"Brother Liu..." No matter what Gengniang and Jingshi called, Brother Liu still fell into a drowsiness due to the wound and the excessive mental blow.
"...Dad..."
"Don't!"
Brother Liu sat up from the bed at once, and fell back to the bed because of the severe pain from the wound.
"It's that dream again..."
Brother Liu now knows that it was not a dream. All that was what he saw with his own eyes when he was held by his biological father as a baby. He also knew why in his "dream" Wakaishi had Shizuishi's face, it was because he subconsciously I know, that is my "father."
"Father..." Brother Liu covered his face and sobbed silently.
Five or six days have passed, but to Brother Liu, it still feels like a dream.
On the surface, everything in life is the same as before, nothing has changed. But Brother Liu knew very well that he could no longer live the same life as before.
Jing Shi and Geng Niang love him as much, holding him in the palm of their hand, but they have an unspeakable sadness between them.
When friends came to visit him, he could no longer talk and laugh like he used to, especially when facing Gao Er, he felt a sense of guilt and apology - half of the innocents who killed Gao'er's father flowed from his body. Blood!
Brother Liu, who had always thought that hiding was too stuffy in bed, began to be afraid of facing his clan. Whether he was facing friends, elders, or neighbors and relatives who cared about him, he had an unspeakable inferiority complex.
And what he is most afraid to face is Gengniang. When he mentioned the death of "Ning Ge'er" last time, his mother's sorrowful cry remained in Brother Liu's heart, "That child... Poor child, I Holding him, he's getting cold a little bit, and he's still grabbing my fingers when he's dead, my poor child..."
Brother Liu already understands why the mother is so sad, because the dead child is Brother Liu, her own flesh and blood, her only child...
"Why not me! If only I died at that time and let 'Brother Liu' live... Why not me... Then mother won't be so sad..." wounded blood.
This fact weighed heavily on Brother Liu's chest, making him almost breathless.
"Brother Liu?" When Brother Liu came to the door, Gengniang stopped him and opened her mouth to ask, but she didn't.
"Mother, I want to go out for a walk." Brother Liu thought that his mother was going to drive him back to bed on the grounds that his injuries were not healed, but Gengniang said, "Go back early, don't delay eating. "
"Yeah." Brother Liu agreed and walked out. After a few steps, he turned around and said, "Mother, I just went to the ground to take a breath, and I'll be right back. Dad knows where I'm going, you Don't worry."
"Go to the ground... Take a breath..." Gengniang looked at her son Go's back, she knew that Brother Liu said this to reassure herself, but for some reason her heart tightened, "Go to the ground. Take a breath..." She repeated this sentence repeatedly, and remembered clearly that this was what the earth wolf man once said. At that time, she had just married into the house, and when she went to the hall when she met her husband's brother respectfully saluting him, he just smiled and waved his hand and said that.
"Go to the ground to take a breath..." Gengniang turned her head to Jing Shi with tears in her eyes and said, "Xiang Gong, Brother Liu, why did he say the same thing as the uncle... Is it him, he also..."
"You have too many hearts. Staying brother is different from eldest brother." Jing Shi reassured his wife, "These days are enough for him, maybe he just wants to find a place to be quiet." Having said that, in his eyes, the back of Brother Liu looked more and more like before, the figure of the older brother who always ran ahead of him in studying, fighting, and playing games.
"Xianggong, I always feel that we are about to lose Liu Geer." Gengniang sobbed and snuggled into her husband's arms.
Jing Shi hugged his wife tightly: "No, no matter what, Brother Liu will always be our son...forever..."
A drizzle is falling on the ground.
Brother Liu shook his head, looking up on his face, the rain of the gossamer was blown onto the skin by the wind. The air and rain had a cool feeling, gradually washing away the depression that had been pressing on his heart these days. . Taking a few deep breaths, he walked to the cave where Ren Shang lived. He hadn't been here for so long, and he didn't know how dirty it was. Did any beast run in and make trouble? Clean up first, and then make yourself a pot of tea. In this weather, drinking a cup of tea is best... He tried his best to think about these trivial matters, so as not to return to those troubles in his heart.
Crossing the creek and turning the corner of the forest, a wisp of clear smoke came into view.
"Could it be..." Brother Liu's heart thumped a few times, he walked forward, faster and faster, and before he got close to the cave, he shouted loudly: "Grandpa! Grandpa! Are you back? "
The old man in green robe who was fanning the fire slowly turned his head around Gu Panasonic by the cave.
"Grandpa, you're finally back..." Brother Liu opened his hands and rushed up. The moment he hugged Ren Shang's shoulders, he couldn't help crying aloud, "Grandpa, grandpa..." /
"Silly boy, what's wrong? Have you been wronged? Come, tell Grandpa!"
"Grandpa..." The grievances, incomprehension, self-pity, and fear that had been suppressed in Brother Liu's heart for several days... all surged up, crying desperately like a child, because only the old man in front of him can really Knowing all his feelings, he can talk to someone who can't even talk to his parents and friends...
"That's right..." Ren Shang used magic to heal Brother Liu's wounds, and listened to Brother Liu after finishing his experience in the past few days, nodded and said, "It's no wonder you feel so uncomfortable when this happens ."
"I really didn't expect that I was an innocent child!" Brother Liu pounded the tree hard, "I am an innocent child...Grandpa, I have no face to see my clan now, although they I don't know anything, but I don't dare to look at them directly. When I think of Wushang...I think that Wushang has done so many hurtful things! I just...I..." Brother Liu bit his lip hard, "I I feel like I don't deserve to stand with them, laugh and play together..."
"Why do you think so? You are still brother Liu. You know best yourself that you have not become another person."
"But that's unwounded! I have unwounded blood!"
"Alas..." Ren Shang Yangtian sighed, "Brother Liu, I want to ask you, why do you always hate Wushang so much?"
"For..." Brother Liu immediately counted the innocent crimes like ten, "...just last month, they also killed Qiao'er's father!" He said bitterly.
"Brother Liu, what you said all happened after your two clans formed a grudge. Do you know how the two clans forged grudges?"
"How did you get revenge?" Brother Liu shook his head. Ever since he could remember, Wushang was evil, cruel, shameless... All these words are synonymous with such words, and it is every place to fight against a race of this quality. It is a matter of course in the wolf's mind, who would ask "why".
"It's just hatred because of hatred, and fighting because of fighting, don't you need any reason?" Ren Shang said with a sad expression, "The hatred between your two races has become a habit, a tradition, and a tradition. It's a part of the child..."
Brother Liu looked at him, not understanding what he meant.
"Liu Ge'er, it is because of this that you take your own bloodlines as a shame, right?"
"Of course it's a shame! Such a race! Such a bloodline..." Brother Liu frowned, showing an unbearable look.
Ren Shang's expression of pain became more obvious, and he asked: "If Wu Shang was a kind and respectable race, would you still be so unbearable?"
"Of course not. I think it's still hard for me to accept that I'm not the biological son of my parents, but at least I won't be ashamed of my clan, at least I... But how could Wushang be such a race!" Brother was amused by Grandpa's naive idea.
"Innocence is such a race."
Brother Liu showed a chin about to drop.
"The earth wolf is also, as is the injury-free, both are the most kind, peaceful, strong and polite races that deserve everyone's respect - Brother Liu, you are the child born from the fusion of their blood, you It is not necessary to be inferior to your own blood, because what you have is blood that can stand up in front of any race."
"Have you always thought that if you hate each other, one party must be right and the other wrong?"
Brother Liu nodded.
"No one is wrong, Brother Liu, none of you are wrong. You kill without injury or without injury, and hate each other, but that's not your fault..."
"Who is that?"
"I don't know either..." Ren Shang looked into the distance, "Not only Wushang and Earthwolves, but also humans, gods, and other monsters. Two different races, countries, nationalities, The family, the two individuals, they are both kind and sensible and worthy of respect, but they hate each other. Wrong, no one can say why! No one can stop...why, why, why?!" He turned his back to the sky, his hoarse voice getting louder and louder, as if he wanted to ask the sky what happened. A dull thunder rolled through the clouds, and the rain suddenly increased, as if none of the creatures in the dark could answer his question.
"Why..." Brother Liu murmured these three words. He had had similar thoughts in his mind before, but it had never been so clear. Of course, there is nothing wrong with the wolf clan. If there is nothing wrong with no injuries, who is at fault? What's wrong again? Who is messing with all this?
"No!" Brother Liu suddenly shouted and shook his head vigorously, "Outsiders, I can't think about it anymore! I'm afraid that if I think about it again, I will become an uncle... like my biological father, I will become an earth wolf clan. Sinner!" He breathed quickly, "I just want to live the life of an earth wolf, I just want to be like other earth wolves! I don't want these different ideas anymore! Grandpa, you're right Right?" His voice became smaller and smaller, and finally became a tone of pleading for approval, looking at Ren Shang pitifully.
"Brother Liu..." Ren Shang closed his eyes and sighed, "Yes, you are right, you just live like a famous wolf, you must not become me, change Be like your father, don't learn our apostasy thoughts, don't..."
Grandpa put himself and uncle, no, and my biological father Ruo Shi together and said, could he be too... Brother Liu has always felt that Ren Shang has a lot of things on his mind, and this feeling is even more obvious now, although he himself has Endless troubles, still can't help but care about each other.
"Brother stay..."
"Yes, grandpa."
"Go back, you have been out for too long today, your parents will be worried."
It's still early to see the sky.
"Now they have more pain in their hearts than you, don't let them worry about you, go back to them, listen to their words carefully, don't let them worry about you, you know?"
"Yeah!" Brother Liu nodded sensible and asked again, "Grandpa, shall I see you again tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow?" Ren Shang's heart trembled, "No..." If he refused, he was about to say it, and looking at Brother Liu's attachment, he turned back, "Okay, tomorrow."
When Brother Liu did not go underground, Ren Shang put his hand on his chest and prayed to the sky: "God, I swear this is the last time, tomorrow, I will see this child tomorrow and leave, and I will never come back! God! If you have eyes, let all unfortunate things come to me, this old man, and don't hurt Liu Ge again..."
Brother Liu walked underground, deliberately avoiding the clan, and dodged home.
"Stay brother."
"Sir." Brother Liu turned his head and saw Su Xin standing behind him.
"You went to the ground again?" Su Xin walked side by side with him.
"Yes." Brother Liu nodded silently.
"There are still many dangers in this world that you don't know about, just like you can bite back when you save someone else..." He said after a while, "So you have to be careful about everything."
"Yes sir." Brother Liu replied respectfully.
"Brother Liu, I don't mean to interfere with your freedom, it's just that if the Tiantie doesn't come to guide you, don't stay in that kind of place on the ground for a long time. In that kind of unfamiliar place, there are many things that can't be prevented. ." He looked at Brother Liu as he spoke, worried that his concerns would be misunderstood by him.
"I know Mr. cares about me." Brother Liu fully understands Su Xin's concern for himself.
"Mr. may be a bit wordy, but I really want to stay for the good of my brother. It would be great if you can understand." Su Xin sighed, "Mr. still expects you to contribute to the earth wolf clan."
"Sir... I will definitely not let you down." After that incident, Brother Liu became close to Su Xin in his heart, he knew that Su Xin was an elder who could depend on him as much as his parents.
"...That time, I had this scar on my body." While telling Brother Liu about his previous dangerous experience on the ground, Su Xin showed him a scar on his body, although it was many years later , but the scar left by the spell still looks very hideous.
"This is... the five thunder spells." Brother Liu looked at the scar and said the name of the spell.
"Yes! Brother Liu has good eyesight." Su Xin praised, "Humans are very good at this kind of spell, and I was hit without even a chance to dodge. Alas, human beings only have a few hundred and ten Years of life, but there are often some magic spells that are surprisingly powerful and unimaginable."
"Yes, there are some unique ways of cultivation for human beings." Brother Liu recalled the spells Ren Shang taught him, "It's a shortcut that I never thought of."
"Oh, brother Liu is also studying human spells just like Mr. Su?" Su Xin asked unexpectedly. Because of the great difference in living environment, the Earth Wolf people don't like to contact the spells of foreign races. If it wasn't for the fierce battle with the human monks a hundred years ago, he would not have the idea of studying human spells. Over the years, he has become more and more aware of the vastness and profoundness of human spells. It is no wonder that there are so many successful human beings. It's just that there is no teacher who knows how to use it, and there is no partner who can study and communicate together, so there is very little progress. He was very happy to hear that Brother Liu also knew the magic of human beings. If he had the same goal, he would be willing to cooperate with him on an equal footing even if he was his own student.
"I think people often practice a kind of unique human being while cultivating. The magic they call inner breath or inner force has a lot to do with their practice." Brother Liu expressed his opinion.
"I think so too. Unfortunately, human cultivation is different from ours. It is not passed down selflessly among clansmen, but taught from master to apprentice or from father to son to grandson, from generation to generation. They all hide their secrets and stingy with each other , it's too hard for us aliens to learn from them."
"Ah, sir, haven't formally learned human spells?" Brother Liu realized then why Su Xin had never taught the students the human spells that were obviously valuable to learn in his class—because he himself knew little about it.
"Brother Liu, listen to you, do you know the magic of human beings?" Su Xin suddenly stopped and looked at Brother Liu eagerly.
"Yeah." Brother Liu nodded, "I have learned something for ten years, and I have learned something."
"Really!" Su Xin grabbed Brother Liu's shoulder, "You really know it! Teach me sir! No, you teach me, I'll call you sir!"
"Sir!" Brother Liu was taken aback, "Stop joking."
"No, brother Liu, you don't know, I've wanted to learn human spells for a hundred years, and now I have the opportunity, I must not miss it, even if you ask me to do the apprenticeship in the way of human beings. "
"Sir..." At this time, the enthusiasm on Su Xin's face was completely different from that of the old-fashioned and strict teacher. He was completely immersed in the desire for knowledge, and Brother Liu couldn't help but feel a kind of confidant.
"Sir, how am I qualified to teach you...but...but I think my grandfather, no, my teacher can teach you."
"Your teacher?"
Brother Liu licked his lips, and explained the magic that Ren Shang had been instructing him for a long time. Although my grandfather told me not to tell me about him, it shouldn't matter, sir. Like father, mother, and grandfather, he is the one who cares about himself the most and will stand by his side no matter what happens. Brother Liu has always had such a wish in his heart, that one day he would introduce his grandfather to Jingshi and Gengniang, and take this opportunity to let these dearest people get to know each other.
"...Sir, I'll tell you tomorrow, I don't think Grandpa will refuse!"
"The human monk..."
"Mr. Really, I think he will agree. I'll bring you a reply tomorrow." Brother Liu saw that the house was in front of him, said goodbye to Su Xin, and said, "Sir, don't say anything. Go out, grandpa won't let me talk about him." After saying that, he ran to the door happily.
"Human..." Su Xin looked at Brother Liu's back with a complicated expression and muttered to herself...
"Crack."
One of the thick stainless steel guardrails on the top of the tall building was broken by Liu Di's hand.
"That was the first time I broke my promise...and the last time. In this life, I will never break my promise again! Never again!"
Liu Di's eyes were looking at the buildings that overlapped in the distance, extending all the way to the horizon. His body trembled slightly, his hands became tighter and tighter, and the whole section of the guardrail made a "click" sound under his hands.
Zhou Ying put his hand on his shoulder. With the warmth from his hand, Liu Di's breathing gradually calmed down, lit another cigarette, and began to talk about the past... /
"Okay? Grandpa, Mr. Su Xin really wants to learn magic from you." Brother Liu begged Ren Shang's arm.
"What..." After hearing Brother Liu's plea, Ren Shang's face sank, "You told me about my family!"
"No, I only told Mr. alone, don't worry, he will keep it a secret!" Brother Liu hurriedly explained.
"You kid!" Ren Shang was very angry and hit Shiji hard, "Have you forgotten what you promised me?"
"Grandpa," Brother Liu called out half begging and half coquettish, "I really want you and my family to get to know you. My father, mother and husband will definitely welcome you."
"Alas..." Ren Shang secretly sighed. At this point, he doesn't want to blame Brother Liu anymore, and he originally planned to say goodbye to Brother Liu today and leave the country. Even if Brother Liu tells others about him, it doesn't really matter.
"Grandpa, sit down." Brother Liu diligently moved a stool for him and set out a tea set, "I'll fetch water to make tea for you."
Ren Shang watched Brother Liu busy, until he held a cup of fragrant tea in front of Ren Shang with both hands, then Ren Shang beckoned him to come to him, held his arm and said, "Brother Liu, In fact, grandpa came to bid you farewell today."
"What?" Brother Liu called out unhappily, "You're going to leave for so long and not come back?"
Ren Shang shook his head speechlessly.
"Then you'll be back soon this time?"
Ren Shang shook his head and said, "I'm leaving this time, and I won't come back."
"Why?" Brother Liu grabbed Ren Shang's shoulders with both hands and asked anxiously, "Where are you going? Why didn't you come back?"
"I am going to the human world, and I will live there in the future. I will never return to the land of Qingqiu again." Ren Shang said shyly.
"Then...then..." Brother Liu muttered, things were so sudden, he didn't know how to keep Ren Shang, "If you leave, I will never see you again... …”
"Gathering, separation and reunion, things have always been like this. If there is fate, we will meet in the future." Ren Shang endured the reluctance in his heart to comfort Brother Liu.
"The world is so far away..." Brother Liu's eyes reddened and tears rolled down his cheeks. He knew that it was impossible for him to go to such a far place in the world in this life. If we don't come back, we will never see each other again today. "Grandpa, if you are angry and want to leave because I told you about you, I..."
"Silly boy," Ren Shang interrupted him, "how could my grandfather leave the hometown where he has lived most of his life for such a trivial matter. It's really impossible to leave... In fact, I have lived in the human world for some time. Now, I came back this time just to say goodbye to you, I'm afraid I'll leave silently, I'm just worrying about you."
Brother Liu just cried, but couldn't say anything.
"I don't want you to visit me in the human world in the future, so I won't tell you my address in the human world - the earth wolf will not leave the earth and hometown easily, and I hope that my brother will stay in the future Like an ordinary wolf, he lives an ordinary and happy life." He fondled Brother Liu lovingly, "You've grown up, you're taller and stronger than when I first saw you, and live your life well, Don't waste your knowledge, grandpa will be relieved."
"Grandpa..." Brother Liu burst into tears.
"Man, man, don't cry, come and have a cup of tea with your grandpa."
Brother Liu wiped away his tears, tried his best to squeeze a smile, held up a teacup for Ren Shang, and poured another cup for himself.
"Brother Liu didn't even dare to drink tea in the past, but now he can make good tea." Ren Shang sighed with a smile, held the cup to his lips, and took a sip.
"Dang clang." The cup in Ren Shang's hand fell to the ground and shattered.
"What did you put in the tea?" Ren Shang grabbed Brother Liu's wrist and asked sharply.
"What?" Brother Liu blinked in confusion.
Before Brother Liu could finish speaking, Ren Shang released his hands, and his body slowly collapsed. Brother Liu hugged him and called anxiously, "Grandpa! Grandpa! What's wrong with you?" Closed, teeth clenched, has passed out. "Grandpa! Grandpa!" Brother Liu was completely panicked and kept calling, but Ren Shang didn't respond at all.
"Tea?" Brother Liu thought of what Ren Shang had said before he passed out, and quickly grabbed the teapot. There was still more than half of the teapot in it. He boiled the water and put the tea leaves, so he couldn't see anything unusual. Brother Liu put the tea to his nose to smell it, and then stuck out his tongue to lick it.
"Crack!"
Someone knocked out the teapot with one palm.
"Mr. Su Xin?" Brother Liu saw Su Xin standing behind him, he couldn't think about it, he pulled Su Xin and said, "Sir, take a look, my grandfather..." "Mr. Su Xin?" /
"I brought the poison in the water."
"What?!"
Su Xin reached out to grab Ren Shang, who was holding Brother Liu, but Brother Liu stretched out his arm to block him. Brother Liu looked at Su Xin with wide eyes: "Sir, what are you doing? Hurry up and give me the antidote!"
"You call him grandpa?" Su Xin asked with a frown.
"Yes!"
"Hey, I thought you were completely in the dark, but I didn't expect you to know it! You are so cunning!"
"What the **** are you talking about! Hurry up and give me the antidote to save my grandpa!" Brother Liu said angrily, a little anxious.
"Take it!" Su Xin stopped talking to him, waved his hand, seven or eight wolves came in from outside the cave and surrounded Brother Liu and Ren Shang, Su Xin instructed: "Take this innocent and peaceful Stay with me and take it back with you!"
"What are you talking about! My grandfather is a human!" With a wave of Liu Ge's claws, the wolves took a few steps back.
"Human!" Su Xin raised her eyebrows, "See for yourself what he is!"
Brother Liu looked down at Ren Shang in his arms, and saw an old man who was completely different from the Ren Shang in his memory: lilac hair, pale dark skin, scales on the back of his hands... …
"No injury!!" Brother Liu jumped up with an exclamation and threw Ren Shang heavily on the ground, "Where is my grandfather? Where is my grandfather? Why is he here without injury?"
"You really don't know that he is harmless?" Su Xin asked, squinting.
"Why? Why is he uninjured? My grandfather..." Brother Zhang Huang didn't know what to do, so he spun around.
"Brother Liu..." Ren Shang whispered. Although the poison he drank was very strong, with his profound mana, he could wake up after just a short while.
Brother Liu walked carefully to him step by step: "You, you..."
"Brother Liu, Grandpa is sorry for you..." In this short moment, Ren Shang saw that it was not the poison that Brother Liu gave him, and showed a relieved smile, "Grandpa, you shouldn't come back to Qingqiu. The country's..." Before he could finish speaking, an earth wolf hit him **** the head with the hilt of his sword, and he fainted again.
"Take him away!" Su Xin waved her hand decisively.
"Ah..." Brother Liu looked at the wolves dragging Renshang away, and he stretched out his hand to stop him, but he still didn't say anything, he turned around and looked at Su Xin for help: "Sir, this is , this is..."
"Oh...it seems that you really don't know anything." Su Xin sighed, "How long have you been with him?"
"Ten, ten years."
"Always thought he was human?"
Brother Liu nodded vigorously.
"Oh, it seems that you really don't know anything." Su Xin sighed, "After hearing what you said yesterday, I secretly went up to the ground to see it by myself. Of course he is not a human, but a One is harmless, can you really not tell the difference?"
Brother Liu wanted to shake his head, but he remembered the humans he met that time. Their scents were so different from grandpa. "I thought, I thought..."
"This is a powerful mana with no damage, if I hadn't put the poison in the spring and you tricked him into drinking it, we wouldn't have been able to catch him. Why did he deliberately approach you like this? ?"
"I don't know..." Brother Liu said blankly, feeling dizzy and unable to think.
"Oh...it seems that you really don't know anything." Su Xin sighed, "Go back, go back and talk about it." She patted Brother Liu on the shoulder, and got into the ground first.
"No injury... Grandpa is innocent..." Brother Liu repeated, his face and palms were covered in sweat, "Why is this happening? Why?" Suddenly a fragment of memory flashed through his mind: It was his first time to go hunting, and he met an innocent man on the road... After so many years, he had forgotten about it, but now everything came to his mind again, it was him, that was Ren business! Brother Liu clearly remembered that innocent appearance. "What the **** is going on!" he began to shout, "what the **** is going on!! What is going on!"
A hand rests on his shoulder.
"Father." Brother Liu saw Jingshi standing behind him, "What's wrong? Father, tell me what's wrong?" He fell into his father's arms and cried.
Jing Shi slapped him on the back, and two lines of turbid tears fell silently.
"Brother Liu is really amazing!" Friends gathered around Brother Liu and raised their fingers to praise him.
Brother Liu sat blankly, not feeling happy at all, because Su Xin told the clan that the Wushuang was caught alive because Brother Liu worked hard to catch him, so Brother Liu became one of the clansmen. little hero. You must know that it is easy to kill someone without injury, but it is difficult to capture them alive. This race often prefers to die.
"Liu Ge'er made a move, and of course he was caught without injury!" Yu Shen was proud of his friend and brag with his chest out.
"I'm going to catch it..." Brother Liu gave a wry smile and gave the poisoned tea to Ren Shang, who had no precautions at all. Of course, it was easy to catch.
"Brother Liu, you caught Wu Shang; you go and beg Mr. and elders, and let them allow me to cut off his head with my own hands to sacrifice to my father?" Gu'er begged to Brother Liu.
"But your father didn't kill him!" Brother Liu couldn't bear to interpret it as any business discrimination.
"It's the same without injury, which one shouldn't die!" Gu'er said fiercely, "I really want to dig out his heart and eat it alive!"
Brother Liu shuddered and lowered his head.
"Brother Liu, you look ugly." The careful Shen Zhu asked with concern.
"It's fine." Brother Liu forced a smile.
"Yeah, if you don't say I haven't noticed yet, Brother Liu looks so bad!"
"Aren't you sick?"
"Did you eat a bad stomach?"
"Brother Liu, have you healed from your last injury?"
"Brother stay..."
Friends immediately began to ask questions.
"I'm really fine." The concern of friends has never made Brother Liu feel so sad.
"Also said it's okay, look in the mirror yourself."
"Yeah, let's go see a doctor?"
"Let me give you the pulse."
"Don't, be careful to let him die!"
“…”
"I'm fine, you guys are over-hearted." Brother Liu parried his friends who wanted to take him to see a doctor.
"Stay brother."
Jing Shi's voice interrupted the frolicking of the boys.
"Uncle Jingshi."
"Hello, uncle."
"Uncle Jingshi, you are back."
The boys greeted each other warmly. With a heavy face, Jing Shi forced a smile to greet them, and said to Brother Liu: "Brother Liu, come in, I have something to tell you. - You sit, sit, you're welcome."
"No, we should go back too."
"Yeah, we're leaving."
"Uncle Jingshi, we are leaving. Next time, come to my father for a drink."
“…”
When the teenagers saw that their father and son had something to say, they stood up one after another to say goodbye, clapped hands with Brother Liu, took a shoulder, and left one after another. Watching the friends go out, Brother Liu turned to his father, "Dad, what's the matter with you?"
"I went to see him," Jingshi said.
"Who?"
Jing Shi looked at him.
"Outside... No, is that one harmless?" Brother Liu lowered his head and didn't look at his father.
"Did he let you call him grandpa?"
"No, I want to call him that myself." Even if he knew that the other party was harmless. Brother Liu was still reluctant to lie to cover up the once intimacy between himself and him.
Jing Shi sighed and muttered to himself: "The nature of blood is really hard to cover..."
Jing Shi quietly waited for his father to speak. He didn't know why his father went to Ren Shang or what Ren Shang would say to him. In fact, from the moment Ren Shang was caught, he couldn't do anything. , can only wait...
"Stay brother."
"Yes, Dad."
"He...is really your grandfather..." Jingshi used all his strength to say this sentence.
Although I already had all kinds of guesses in my heart, and I expected a little bit of it, but now this sentence came out of Jingshi's mouth. Brother Liu opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound. Tears fell to the ground unknowingly when she was wet.
"Go and see him," said Shizuoka before shaking his head and walking out.
Brother Liu's heart suddenly tightened. He seemed to hear his father's implication. His father wanted to hurry up and see Ren Shang for the last time.
Because I knew that the poisoned and bound Wushuang could not escape in the earth wolf clan, the guards were all the earth wolf teenagers. Among the teenagers who were replaced in the afternoon, there happened to be Brother Liu's good friend. Shen Zhu. So when Brother Liu proposed to go in, he agreed without thinking.
In the cell, Ren Shang was tied to a post, with several spells affixed to his body. His body was covered with whiplash scars. He lowered his head and closed his eyes until he heard footsteps approaching him. He just glanced at it slightly, and what caught his eye was the person he wanted to see the most.
"Brother Liu..." Ren Shang suddenly raised his head.
Brother Liu looked at Ren Shang's injuries in a trance. He knew how great Ren Shang's ability was. If he hadn't been poisoned, how could he be slaughtered like this, and he was poisoned by his own hands. for him.
"They asked me about the Wushang clan..." Ren Shang saw that he was looking at his injury and said with a wry smile, "But I don't know anything. I haven't been back for many years - since I took you After my mother left there, she never went back."
"Are you really my grandfather?"
"Are you really my grandfather?" Brother Liu asked standing in front of Ren Shang.
Ren Shang stared at Brother Liu before saying, "I said it was a child, do you believe it?"
Brother Liu took a breath and asked, "Why are you approaching me deliberately? What do you want to do to the earth wolf clan?"
"I don't want to do anything to the wolves, I just want to see you - my only relative, my only flesh and blood, my poor daughter's only child... I'm not a wounded family long ago. One member, I was tired of those unreasonable fights a hundred years ago. I left the Wushuang family with my daughter. Later, I met your father. ...now my children are gone, and my only relative is you, brother Liu, although the earth wolf clan said you died, but I have a hunch, I think you are still alive, I am in the earth wolf clan I wandered around for forty years before I saw you. I knew you were my grandson just by looking at it, because you looked exactly like my daughter... Brother Liu, grandpa knew that he had caused you trouble, but grandpa I really can't help not to see you... I heard what Brother Hu said, I had already gone to the human world, but I miss you... Brother Liu, grandpa wants to see you, you blame grandpa now, if I don't come back That's it!"
"Why do you want to come? I live well, why do you want to come!" Brother Liu shouted, "My grandfather is at home, you are not my grandfather at all! You said, you are lying!"
Ren Shang shook his head slightly, his eyes fixed on him.
Brother Liu raised his hand, but stopped when he hit Ren Shang, gritted his teeth and said, "Come on, you are lying!"
"I'll tell you..." Ren Shang looked away, "I'll tell your clansmen that I wanted to use you to inquire about the secrets of the wolf clan, but you were just used by me without knowing it... ...If they still don't believe it, go to Brother Hu, he once promised me to take care of you, and if the nine-tailed fox comes forward, it is estimated that your clan will not be difficult for you."
"I don't want you to say this, I want to hear the truth!"
Ren Shangyou looked at him with a wry smile and asked, "My child, what truth do you want to hear?"
"You!" Brother Liu raised his hand again, but put it down again helplessly, turned around and walked out.
"Brother Liu, don't forget what I taught you, don't forget to have your own opinion on everything, don't forget, if you have anything in the future, go to Brother Hu!" Ren Shang urged loudly from behind, He knew he might be seeing the child for the last time.
Brother Liu turned around abruptly, waved his hand sharply, and tore off the spell that bound Ren Shang. Once these spells were gone, Ren Shang broke the rope with one hand and stood up. He opened his hands to Brother Liu: "Brother Liu..."
"Don't come here!" Brother Liu stepped back and shouted loudly, "I won't admit that you are my grandfather. But you haven't hurt me, I can't watch you die, you go quickly, sirs It's too late to come back!"
"If you let me go, he will not let you go."
"They are my clan, they won't do anything to me!"
Ren Shang shook his head. Based on his knowledge of the Earth Wolf Clan, he knew that things would not be as simple as Brother Liu thought, so he smiled lightly and said, "No, I can't leave. If I leave, you will suffer. ."
"If you are told to go, just go!" Brother Liu was anxious, grabbed Ren Shang's hand, and dragged him towards the wall, intending to go up through the wall and onto the ground - he firmly believed that his clan would not No matter what you will do to yourself, you will punish yourself with a few slaps at most, and you will just endure it by gritting your teeth.
When they got to the wall, they were shot.
"Brother Liu, you really came to save him!"
Following the voice, Su Xin, Shen Zhu and several earth wolves walked out of the other side wall.
"Brother Liu, you lied to me in order to save Wushuang!" Shen Zhu stared at Brother Liu and said bitterly, "It's a shame I treat you as my best friend!"
"No, Shen Zhu, listen to me!" Brother Liu said in panic, "Sir, listen to me!"
"Brother Liu, I always thought that since you were raised by our clan, you should naturally be as famous as our wolves, but I didn't expect you to... I don't allow Brother Zhi to reveal your background. In order to pity your rough life, in order to cherish your talent, in order to think that you will betray the family! It seems that I was wrong, I am still too naive!" Su Xin said sadly, "I am so naive. Treat a harmless **** like a son! If I hadn't been more attentive today, you and this harmless **** would have gone to them by now!"
"No, sir, you're right, I'm still staying brother, I won't betray the clan!"
Su Xin looked at him coldly and said, "Okay, I'll give you one more chance. If you kill this innocent with a single sword, today's events will be regarded as not happening!" elder brother.
Ren Shang was poisoned and banned by a spell for several days. In addition to the injuries on his body, he was completely shaky. Not to mention Brother Liu, now even a child can take his life lightly.
Leave buddy look at Ren Shang, look at the sword in front of him, and shake his head.
Su Xin took a step and handed the sword forward again.
"No!" Brother Liu shook his head, "I can't do it!"
"I'm coming!" Although Shen Zhu couldn't understand the whole story, he could see that the key lies in this innocent body. He intentionally made a clearance for Brother Liu, and stabbed Ren Shang with his sword, intending to kill Brother Liu on his behalf. It was an explanation for Su Xin.
"When!"
Shen Zhu's sword was blocked by Brother Liu's outstretched arm.
"Brother Liu, you are crazy!"
"No! No!" Brother Liu stood in front of Ren Shang and opened his arms to protect him, "He is really my grandfather, I can't kill him!"
"He is harmless!"
"I am his grandson, I am his daughter's child!" Brother Liu shouted the truth himself.
"What..." Shen Zhu and the other wolves present looked at Su Xin together.
"I am the son of Wakaishi and Wushang! He is my grandfather, and I gave him the poison! I also broke the oath I made! I must never watch him die again!" Brother Liu decided Determined, he said loudly, "Earth Wolf also has bad people, villains, Wushang also has good people. He has been away from Wushang for a long time, and he should not be counted as our enemy! No matter how much we hate Wushang, we can't be like this. Mr. Indiscriminate, please let him go!"
"You really want to protect this name from harm!"
"Sir, he is my grandfather..."
"Humph! It's not my race, its heart must be special! It's true! It took my wolf race to raise you for decades, but you are still a harmless bastard!" Su Xin ordered mercilessly: " Kill!"
"Don't, sir, listen to me, don't kill him, he's been away from the harmless for a long time!"
Ren Shang grabbed Brother Liu's shirt, so that he escaped the attack of an earth wolf, and shouted, "You are the one they are going to kill!"
"Why? Uncle Qing, Uncle Shankong, I'm Brother Liu! Why are you..." Once again, Brother Liu's arm was scratched with a **** opening. Brother Liu looked over and shot. It is Shen Zhu. "Shen Zhu, you too..."
"Why did you betray!" Shen Zhu made another move mercilessly.
"I didn't! I've never done anything wrong to my family!"
"You are clearly dating Wushang!"
"I didn't betray, I didn't!" Brother Liu returned a hand, knocking Shen Zhu to the ground, and shouting sharply: "Anyone can doubt me, you are not allowed! Don't even you believe me! You don't know How am I? Shen Zhu! I swore to you that I would never betray the wolf clan! Have you forgotten? Don't you know that I never break my promise?"
Shen Zhu looked at Brother Liu's resentment, and couldn't help but stop.
"You are my friend, and you don't believe me!
"I..." Shen Zhu hesitated for a while.
"If there is a person who is very, very kind to you, because you know there is danger and you come back from the world, even if he is uninjured, can you kill him? You can watch him die. Not to mention that he has already betrayed the Wushang Clan, does it mean that just being close to him is a betrayal of our clan?" Brother Liu shouted hoarsely while protecting himself and Ren.
Shen Zhu looked at this friend who had been playing since childhood. The attack in his hand gradually slowed down. He gradually withdrew from the battle group. He gritted his teeth and thought for a long time before throwing a sentence: "I'll call Uncle Jingshi!" Turning and running out.
Brother Liu's words moved Shen Zhu, but he couldn't shake Su Xin and the others' murderous intentions. Although he is highly skilled, how could he both protect Ren Shang and resist so many opponents, and he was afraid of hurting his clansmen and clansmen during the fight. However, he was merciless, and in a short while, countless wounds were added to his body.
Ren Shang was distressed and anxious, but he couldn't help himself at all, so he lowered his voice and said to Brother Liu, "Illusion."
Following his voice, he reacted and hugged his body, and the two disappeared together.
"It's an illusion!" Su Xin stomped her foot—I originally thought that my brother Liu would use the illusion for the Earth Wolf, but he didn't expect it to be used in a place like today.
"Back!"
"Don't let them run away!"
"Slow!" Su Xin stopped everyone: "They have only one place to go - the ground! We just aimlessly caught up with their plans, and everyone recruited people to go up to the ground." He pondered for a while, then said: "Call Jing Shi..."
Brother Liu held Renshang in his arms and watched everyone leave nervously. He couldn't move when using illusions—he was glad he never told his clansmen this.
"Let's go!" Ren Shang grabbed his hand, "Get out of here!"
"Where to go?" Brother Liu has no masters.
"Go to Brother Hu's house, forgive your clansmen who dare not go to him!"
"I want to go home first, my mother will worry about me." Brother Liu withdrew the spell and dragged Ren Shangxiang to run home.
A wolf came in from the door and stopped them.
"Father!" After Brother Liu saw the other party clearly, tears welled up, "I didn't do anything bad, but Mr. they..."
"Stop talking, let's go!" Jing Shi grabbed Brother Liu and Ren Shang with one hand, and ran to the ground.
The three of them reached the ground and happened to be near the cave where Ren Shang lived.
Jing Shi let go of Ren Shang and bowed his hands to him: "It's not far from here to the residence of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, I won't send you far, you go there for a while, and no one can help you. ."
"Thank you." Ren Shang also surrendered to Jing Shi, and he couldn't help but look at Brother Liu again.
Brother Liu stood behind his father, looked at Ren Shang with a complicated expression, and said after a while, "Take care."
"Brother Liu..." Ren Shang was about to say something, but Jingshi reached out his hand to stop him. Jingshi understood what Ren Shang wanted to say, and before he could speak, he said, "Brother Liu said he was my son, No matter when he is a famous person, you can leave with confidence, my father will not let him suffer a little bit of grievance."
Ren Shang Chang sighed, then looked at Brother Liu reluctantly, cupped his hands at Jing Shi, turned and walked towards the depths of the jungle. Brother Liu looked at his green shirt hidden in the bushes, and then looked away. He looked at the mountain forest, the stream, the pine tree and the pine tree with which he had been traveling for more than ten years with attachment. The bluestone in the cave, the cave where Ren Shang lived... He knew that from now on, it would be as if he would never see Ren Shang again. Live like an earth wolf, and never come to the ground casually again.
"Let's go back." Brother Liu looked back and said to his father.
"Okay, go back." Jing Shi patted his shoulder, "Are you afraid?"
Brother Liu shook his head: "Don't be afraid!"
"Okay, as expected of my son! Go, even if the ground collapses when you go back, your father will carry it for you."
The father and son smiled at each other and walked back arm in arm. Even though he knew that there was a storm waiting for him when he went back, but with his father by his side, Brother Liu was not afraid of anything.
"Brother Liu! Uncle Jingshi!" Before the father and son were submerged, they heard Shen Zhu's cry, and then Shen Zhu came out of the ground out of breath, followed by Geng Niang.
"Brother Liu, Uncle Jingshi, you really are here." Shen Zhu gasped, "No, Brother Zhi went around saying that Brother Liu was a harmless bastard, and Mr. Su Xin said he would let him go. After leaving the innocent prisoner, the clan has been quarreling, and they are discussing together to come and arrest Brother Liu and go back. You should go back and explain clearly. What about the innocent?" He looked around.
"We let it go." Brother Liu said calmly.
"Let him go!" Shen Zhu said anxiously, "How do you explain it clearly?"
"I didn't do anything bad, I'm afraid of anything, right, mother." Brother Liu said to Gengniang with a smile.
Geng Niang came over and touched his face, smiled and nodded.
Brother Liu held his father in one hand and his mother in the other, and walked back.
Ren Shang stumbled through the forest, the poison that had not been removed from his body, the injuries on his body and the temporarily irrecoverable mana made his limbs numb, and he barely dragged his body forward. To reach the residence of the Nine-Tailed Wat people, one has to climb over a mountain. For the beasts and monsters in the forest, this unhurt walking is undoubtedly a good target for attack. Ren Shang knows this very well in his heart. So after taking ten times more care, he now doesn't even have the strength to ask the Yufu to ask Hu Lisheng for help, so he has no choice but to walk forward.
"Any business."
Ren Shang raised his head, and there were several uninjured people in front of him.
"You too have today." The innocents said coldly.
Ren Shang stopped and leaned against a tree.
He knew that since he left the Woundless Clan, the clan had always regarded him as a traitor, and he never gave up his plan to hunt him down. In the past, he was worried about Ren Shang's high-level skills, and he was a loner. His whereabouts were uncertain, and it was difficult for Wushangxin to find him. However, in order to teach Liu Ge for more than ten years, Ren Shang stayed in one place for a long time, and finally he was nowhere to be found. The wounded were traced.
Now that Ren Shang is injured, for Wu Huan, it is the best time to get rid of him.
"I didn't expect that I didn't die in the hands of the earth wolves, but in the end I will die in the hands of my own clan." Ren Shang looked at the woundless people who were approaching step by step, and smiled bitterly. He had no intention of resisting at all, leaning back against the tree, his eyes looking at the blue sky and white clouds through the gaps between the branches and leaves, let Brother Liu think that he went to the human world, but he will stay in this country forever. (Perhaps this is the best ending), otherwise, what would you do in a distant world by yourself? Wife, daughter, son-in-law... are gone, only brother Liu... I will never see that child again...
"Ah..."
With a scream, he raised his knife and flew towards Ren Shang's innocent arm.
"Grandpa." Brother Liu jumped out of the tree, followed by Jing Shi and Geng Niang, "My father said that he smelled a lot of harmless odors, let's come and have a look."
Jing Shi and Geng Niang open the frame, ready to be harmless.
"Brother Liu, you shouldn't have come!" Ren Shang stomped his feet, "You are a wolf, don't care about the harmless things."
"But you are my grandfather..."
"Brother Liu, stop gossiping!" Jing Shi said sharply, "Be careful!"
Twenty people on the other side were uninjured, and on their side, only Jing Shi and Brother Liu could fight. Geng Niang might be able to protect herself, but Ren Shang was almost unable to stand. Undoubtedly, it is more fortunate and less fortunate. Brother Liu and his parents think so, but the big deal is that the whole family will die together. What's so scary.
"Ren Shang, you really are colluding with the earth wolf." The leader without injury asserted, "Don't get rid of you traitor today!"
"Damn no injuries, who is afraid of you!" Jing Shi drew out his long sword and protected his wife behind him.
"No damage!"
"Is there any harm here?"
"Everyone be careful!"
"Call, be alert!"
"Be careful!"
"Whether there is any injury, whether there is any injury."
“…”
There was a noise and footsteps, and a group of wolves appeared in the woods. As soon as they saw this group of uninjured, they immediately drew their swords, and they were on full alert. Brother Liu's face suddenly showed joy and heaved a sigh of relief, but he didn't Seeing that, Jing Shi and Ren Shang's expressions became more solemn.
"Brother Liu, you really are dealing with Wushang!" Kui'er, who was standing in the line, shouted.
"No, they are enemies, everyone is here just in time to deal with them together!"
"What about him?" Gao Er pointed at Ren Shang.
"He..." Brother Liu was at a loss for words, "He's not... he has long deserted the Wushang family, he is, he is my grandfather."
"Sure enough, what Zhi said is true, you are a Wushang bastard!" Gu'er shouted angrily, "You have been dealing with Wushang, and my father's death was also betrayed by you, right? Reveal it to the harmless!"
"What..." Brother Liu widened his eyes blankly: "Me? At that time, I didn't know my background at all, how could it be possible... Even if I knew, I would still be a wolf! How could I harm you! You are my friend."
"Shu" Gu'er drew out his sword, cut off his shirt and threw it on the ground. At the same time as him, several other teenagers made the same move.
"Gu'er, I...you misunderstood."
"Mr. Jingshi..." Ren Shang whispered.
"..." Jing Shi looked at the angry faces of the people in front of him, then at Brother Liu, and then at Ren Shang.
"This child can't survive here, let me take him away..." Ren Shang said.
"Brother Liu..." Jingshi raised his hand and seemed to want to touch Brother Liu's head, but he gritted his teeth and shoved Brother Liu in Renshang's direction: "Go away! You ungrateful bastard! "
"Father!" Brother Liu staggered forward and looked at his father in disbelief.
"Go away! Don't let me see you again!" Jing Shi scolded excitedly, "It took me 50 years to raise you in vain; you still eat inside and out! Go to your harmless nest and don't let me see you!"
Brother Liu shook his body like he was struck by lightning and almost fell.
"Brother stay." Ren Shang grabbed his arm, "Follow me."
"No!" Brother Liu turned around, raised his hand to throw him away, and ran towards his father, "Dad, you can't drive me away! I haven't done anything bad! Dad, let me go back with you, I am willing Accept any punishment!" As soon as his hand touched Jing Shi, he was slapped in the face by the other side's face. "Beast! Hurry up!" Brother Liu just saw the tears in his father's eyes, when Jing Shi caught his clothes and threw him out. Brother Liu turned somersaults in the air and landed right in front of Ren Shang. Jing Shi used just the right amount of force, which seemed to be heavy. In fact, Brother Liu landed gently and was unscathed.
Ren Shang hurriedly grabbed Brother Liu to prevent him from rushing forward. Brother Liu seemed to understand something and didn't try to rush forward again.
"Take it."
Su Xin, who led the earth wolves, waved his hand, and the earth wolves pressed forward. A group of youngsters such as Zhi, Zhike, Gu'er took the lead and drew their weapons.
"Let's go! Brother Liu, come with me." Renshang pulled Brother Liu with all his might.
"Father, mother..." Brother Liu couldn't help shedding tears and reached out to Jingshi and Gengniang, hoping that their parents could be with him,
"Brother Liu, hurry back with mother! You are mother's own flesh and blood, don't be deceived by others!" Gengniang shouted hoarsely, while stopping the clansmen and calling: "He is my son, Not a harmless bastard! You have to trust me!"
"Mother..." Brother Liu's eyes were red and he took a few steps towards her.
"Don't come here! You little bastard!" Jing Shi shouted, "I don't have a son like you!"
Brother Liu suddenly stopped and murmured, "Father..."
"Xianggong, why do you say that, brother Liu is our son!" Gengniang grabbed her husband's collar and shook it vigorously.
"He's not our son! He's a harmless bastard! Now that we don't remember our parenting grace and associate with them, how could we tolerate such a son! How could our clan tolerate such a son? Bitch!" He said, glaring at Brother Liu fiercely.
"Father..." Brother Liu has fully understood what his father meant - the fact that he has half of his bloodlines is now well known to the whole family, and even if he returns to the clan, he will not have a good end. Rather than let himself die at the hands of his clan after returning home, his father would rather go with the one he hated most in his life without injury. "Father, mother..." But he was reluctant to leave, calling his parents sadly.
"Let's go, let's go!" Ren Shang took Brother Liu's arm.
"You can't let them go!" Several men from the Earth Wolf clan shouted, "I saw no injury and no mercy!" They rushed over and surrounded Ren Shang and Brother Liu in the middle. "He is my son, not harmless!" Gengniang was still entangled with the clan. On the Wushang side, some men showed their weapons and surrounded Xiang Renshang and Brother Liu. The two races cannot tolerate their own people interacting with each other. The handling of such traitors is exactly the same for these two incompatible races. Jing Shi blocked an innocent knife, while Gengniang hugged the clan closest to Brother Liu tightly, preventing him from going any further.
"Shoot out these innocents and traitors!"
"Catch all these wolves and traitors!"
The chiefs of both clans gave orders almost simultaneously.
Brother Liu watched helplessly as his parents and grandfather were caught in the center of this battle. Weapons and minions from both sides attacked them, and they were all covered with scars in a short while. "Don't hurt my parents!" Brother Liu roared, his arms stretched out, his claws popped out of his skin, and he knocked the nearest earth wolf to the ground. Now he doesn't care who is his own and who is the feudal race - and does he have any? Don't both races see him as an enemy? ——Wrestling with all the opponents around him desperately. The screams around him reached his ears, and the blood splashed on him. He couldn't tell who he was hurting: a relative, an earth wolf, Wushuang, or himself... Why did things become so? Why did the clansmen who loved him so much before suddenly turn into vicious gods? Why does he have to pay with death when he recognizes him even though he is a relative? I did nothing wrong! I haven't hurt any of you, why are you killing me! Brother Liu shouted in his heart as he fought: Just die! Whether it's an earth wolf or no injuries, you're all dead!
When a figure fell in front of Brother Liu from the sky, he grabbed it with a single claw without even thinking about it.
A "human" old man held Brother Liu's hand and shouted in a calm voice, "All hands!" The other side turned slightly, reached out and patted Brother Liu on the arm, and easily stopped Brother Liu. .
"Stop it all for me!" The person who came came shouted again.
The Earth Wolf and the innocents raised their heads together and looked at the old man who subdued Brother Liu with one hand.
"Nine-tailed fox." Su Xin recognized the old man as Hu Lisheng, the nine-tailed fox.
"Everyone stopped, did you hear me!" Hu Lisheng coldly shouted to the few wolves and Wushang who were still fighting.
Once the identity of his nine-tailed fox was clarified, the audience suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on him, not knowing why he came.
"Oh, I persuaded you a long time ago, why didn't you listen." Hu Lisheng turned to Renshang and said with a long sigh.
Ren Shang was speechless.
"Are you all right?" Hu Lisheng let go of Brother Liu, and at the same time asked the two of them to be number one, looked them up and down, and then said, "It seems that the injury is not serious, but it should not be a serious problem."
"Tianhu," Su Xin looked at Hu Lisheng and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Humph!" Hu Lisheng snorted coldly, holding Ren Shang with one hand and Brother Liu with the other, and walked into the woods.
"Wait a minute!" Su Xin and the leader of the Woundless Clan shouted almost at the same time, "Leave the traitors of my clan behind!"
"You want to stop me?" Hu Lisheng asked with narrowed eyes.
"Tianhu Mingjian, I just ask you to keep the traitors of your own clan, and dare not stop your big drive." Su Xin said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"What if I say no?"
The Innocents and the Earth Wolves didn't say a word, but neither of them wanted to step aside. Although the nine-tailed fox is powerful, he can't just watch him take away the two traitors. Both Wushang and Dilang were numerous, and Hu Lisheng did not dare to despise them.
Wushang and Earth Wolf had a very tacit understanding at this time, and pressed towards Hu Lisheng step by step.
"Wow" and "Wow", several human figures jumped down from the treetops and landed around Hu Lisheng. The seven or eight people who came were all young men with strong expressions. They all looked human, but behind each of them were nine snow-white tails with a circle of black hair at the end. As soon as they landed, they each showed their weapons and stared at Wushang and Earth Wolf with a somewhat dismissive expression.
These nine-tailed children obviously belong to the same clan, most likely Hu Lisheng's nephew.
"As we all know, my nine-tailed fox family never asks about foreign affairs, but today is about my friends, so I have to stand up and say a few words." Hu Lisheng waved his hand and asked two nine-tailed fox youths to protect him Ren Shang and Brother Liu walked slowly forward with their hands behind their backs, "I wonder if the Earth Wolf and the Wushang people will listen to me?"
As soon as the new force of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan appeared, it meant that they had already controlled the audience. Who would dare not listen to what he said?
"Earth Wolf and Wushang have been fighting for a long time, and this is known to everyone in the country of Qingqiu. Originally, your two clans lived underground, and any grudges between them had nothing to do with the races on the ground, but... ..." He lengthened his voice, looked at Wushang, and then at Dilang, "Ren Shang has been with me for many years, I know his character well, and I know that he is already tired of the disputes between your two clans, and has long been Move to the ground and stop interfering in the affairs of the two of you, so why are you still fighting each other?"
"We can ignore this harmless matter. Brother Liu is a member of our clan. He violated the rules of the clan and must be taken back by us to deal with." For the earth wolf clan, traitors are more terrifying than enemies, and More unforgivable.
"Brother Liu is my student!" Hu Lisheng raised his eyebrows, "I will give him to you, I will save face!"
"If we don't deal with him, how will our earth wolf clan manage our clan in the future?" Su Xin still refused to give in.
"Alas," Hu Lisheng sighed and turned to Ren Shang, "Brother Ren, it seems we are going to part ways."
Ren Shang grabbed his hands and choked for a while: "Brother Hu...it's my great fortune to know you in this life! I've caused you trouble again and again, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to repay in this life."
"This breakup is boundless, you have to take care."
"Treasure."
The two old men bid farewell to each other, and the surrounding Wushang and Earthwolves did not understand what they meant.
Relatively sighing for a long time, Hu Lisheng patted Ren Shang's arm: "Go, I'll send it away soon."
Ren Shang nodded, pulled Brother Liu backhand and left.
"Stop!" The earth wolves and the innocents stopped at the same time, they kicked forward, and the nine-tailed fox youths are now pushing them a step, and the temperament of both sides suddenly makes people breathless Come.
"They will leave the country of Qingqiu and go to the human world, and they will come back quietly in this life. If you still stop them, don't blame me for asking you to try the methods of the nine-tailed fox!" Hu Lisheng said sharply.
"Leaving the country of Qingqiu?" There was a voice of discussion among Wushang and the earth wolves. If Renshang and Liuge were not in the country of Qingqiu, never came back, and had nothing to do with the Earth Wolf Wushang clan, although the two clans still regret not being able to deal with them, they were reluctantly acceptable, and It can also avoid the situation of grievances with the nine-tailed fox. After discussing for a while, the innocents put away their weapons and quietly withdrew from here.
"Okay, that's it." The wolves discussed it for a while and then said, "For the sake of the celestial foxes, we will spare them from dying, but never appear in the country of Qingqiu in the future!"
"No!" Brother Liu shouted, "I'm not going!" He struggled to break free of the nine-tailed fox who stopped him, "Father, mother, I'm not going! I'm willing to stay and be subject to clan rules. Treat! Don't let him take me away, I want to accompany you home! Let me go, let go..."
"Liu Ge'er, Liu Ge'er..." Gengniang stretched out her hand desperately under the obstruction of Jing Shi, "Liu Ge'er, my mother will go with you... How can I live without you..."
"Mother, mother... let me go... mother..."
"Brother stay..."
The nine-tailed fox who stopped Brother Liu stretched out his hand and hit him on the back of the neck. Brother Liu suddenly fainted. The moment he fell down, the last thing that caught his eye was the heartbroken face of his mother, who was almost identical with his father. The two lines of tears falling from the already numb face, this picture will be imprinted in his mind for a lifetime, and it will torture him for a lifetime...
"Take him away!" Hu Lisheng waved his hand decisively.
A nine-tailed fox youth carried Brother Liu, Yi Shi was devoted to business, and two others protected them one after the other, and flew to Chaoyang Valley in the north of the country of Qingqiu. From there, they will cross the ladder and send Ren Shang and Brother Liu to the human world.
"Leave brother...stay brother..."
The wolves also retreated underground, with Gengniang's miserable cries in the middle.
"Alas..." Hu Lisheng sighed again, he watched Ren Shang's figure disappear into the sky, knowing that he would never see this old friend in this life, he turned his back to his sons and nephews, and secretly wiped his face. Tears...
The human world.
In the early spring, when hundreds of flowers bloom and green grasses are like fungi, the mountains and forests are full of vitality. Not only the animals are happy, but even the monsters invite their friends and companions, and the whole mountain forest is lively.
Brother Liu lay listlessly at the entrance of the cave where he and Ren Shang lived, with his eyes half-open and half-closed, ignoring the beauty in front of him.
It has been more than a month since he was taken to the human world in a coma. At first he cried and wanted to go back, but was stopped by Ren Shang. Later, he wanted to slip away when Ren Shang was not paying attention, but Ren Shang tried His eyes, ears, and spirit are far above him, and every time he moves, he is caught on the way back, living in a completely unfamiliar world, and living on unfamiliar ground. The bitterness in his heart can be imagined, and even if he wants to break his head, he can't figure out why things have turned out like this, why he has come this far, why he has been forced to leave his hometown even though he has done nothing bad.
"Brother Liu." Ren Shang walked out of the cave, crouched beside him and said gently, "Are you hungry? Let's go in to eat."
Brother Liu turned his head away and closed his eyes.
"Brother Liu, if you want to hate your grandfather, just hate it. Grandpa knows I'm sorry for you."
"Let me go back to see my parents and I won't hate you." Brother Liu said without opening his eyes.
"How could I watch you go back to die..."
"They are my clan, they won't really kill me, I'd rather be punished than go in!"
"Naive child." Ren Shang stroked Brother Liu's fur with his hands, Brother Liu shook his body and shook him off, showing him his fangs.
"Silly child, do you really think they know your background and will admit that you are a clan?"
“…”
"Your father, I mean Wakaishi, do you know how he died?"
"I know..." Brother Liu talked about the death of his biological father Ruo Shi, and his nose was sore.
"He hasn't done anything sorry for the wolf clan, and he is still a pure-blooded wolf. Your clan is unwilling to let him go. Will they let you go?"
"It's all because of you!" Brother Liu jumped up, opened his mouth and bit Ren Shang, "If you don't show up, I can live a quiet life, and I can live a peaceful life! It's all about you. Wrong! Why am I here to disrupt my life! I don't want to see you at all! I don't want to see you at all!"
Ren Shang didn't dodge or fight back, he let him bite his arm, and when Brother Liu exerted force, his sharp teeth fell into Ren Shang's flesh and blood, and blood dripped down his arm. "Brother Liu, grandpa is sorry for you..."
"Grandpa..." Liu Gesong said, throwing himself into Ren Shang's arms and crying, "Grandpa, I want to go home, I miss my parents..." Ren Shang hugged him tightly, and tears fell. , he knew that the distant hometown of Qingqiu, he and Liu Ge would never go back.
"Ah..."
With an abrupt scream, the monkey demon's throat was bitten off by an earth wolf. Brother Liu licked the blood on his lips and stood up, carried the monkey demon's body on his shoulders and walked back. A few frightened hares ran past his feet, and he didn't even look at them.
In the blink of an eye, Brother Liu and Shang Ren have been in the human world for seven years. Brother Liu gradually became accustomed to the current life, and no longer wanted to return to the country of Qingqiu, but concentrated on training, practicing martial arts, and also began to learn the essence of the sun and the moon, harvesting and nourishing, which the wolves never learned. Alchemy and pharmaceuticals... In short, as long as it is a way to increase Dao Xing, he will spare no effort to do it. So over the years, he has made rapid progress, and he can almost tie with Ren Shang. He also created a small world for himself in this forest.
The branches and leaves rustled, and Brother Liu saw that between the branches above his head, another monkey spirit was following him not far or near.
"Take it!" Brother Liu, too lazy to fight with other monsters, tore off one of the monkey's legs in his hand and threw it into the tree. The monkey demon on the tree took it and nimbly jumped to the withered tree of the other tree and devoured it.
Brother Liu shook his head, he still couldn't fully accept the "eating of the same kind".
The biggest difference between the monsters run by the human world and the country of Qingqiu is that they hardly have the concept of "same clan". , the same clan live together, support each other, and share the same enemy Kai. But the monsters in the human world are different. Some of them also have families, but more of them live alone in the forest or among the human beings. Most of them are alone, and they have no concept of comfortable racial differences. It is common, in short, cats and mice who get along well can also be friends, and if there is a conflict of interest, the same kind will meet each other. Ren Shang called this kind of life "independence" and "freedom", and told Brother Liu that no matter what creatures are, they should learn to think about their own problems to decide problems, instead of thinking about it under the cover of "race".
Brother Liu doesn't understand.
"If Wushang and the Earthwolves understood that the world could still survive like this, maybe they would not be enemies from generation to generation." Ren Shang once said.
Although Brother Liu doesn't quite understand what he said, he feels that something has changed in his heart since he came to live in the human world.
"Grandpa, I'm back." Brother Liu shouted back. After he came to the human world, there were only two people, Ren Shang and Ren Shang, and Ren Shang was tolerant and arrogant towards him. Before he knew it, he also forgot the strict division of the old and the young and the comprehensive etiquette that he had cultivated in the clan. back.
Along the way, on the grass in front of the cave where they lived, Brother Liu was stunned for a while, because he saw a "person" and Ren Shang sitting next to each other and drinking tea under a tree.
Ren Shang opened up a small vegetable garden in front of the cave, and also planted flowers and trees for the four seasons. After seven years, the flowers and branches have been flourishing. At this time, Ren Shang was sitting on the bluestone tasting new tea, while the opposite of him was sitting A man in Tsing Yi, chatting and laughing with him.
This is a man in his early twenties who looks like a human, with handsome features and a dusty temperament. He saw his buddy come in, his body was covered in blood, and he was holding a corpse in his hand. He frowned slightly, but The smile on the corner of his mouth still didn't disappear, he stood up and cupped his hands to Ren Shang and said, "I beg your pardon." With a wave of his robe sleeves, he walked into the forest, but disappeared after a few steps.
Brother Liu couldn't help but wince when he was looking at him. He didn't ask until he left, "Grandpa, who is he?"
"Mu Tingtao." Ren Shang put down the teacup and replied, he seemed a little nervous, "He is one of the best monsters in this forest, thanks to his permission, I was able to settle here and stay here. Brother, you must not offend him."
"One of the best... Is he the master here?" Brother Liu couldn't help asking.
"No, but it's about the same." Ren Shang smiled, "He is a tree demon with a thousand years of experience. All the monsters here must obey him and another tree demon. No one dares to go against them."
"How good is he?"
"Unfathomable."
"Isn't he more powerful than Mr. Hu?" Among the monsters Brother Liu has seen, the most powerful one is Hu Lisheng of the Nine-Tailed Fox.
"Compared with Brother Hu, he should be a bit inferior." Ren Shang sighed, thinking of his unimaginable friend in the country of Qingqiu.
Brother Liu didn't notice his sadness, looked at Mu Tingtao's disappearing direction and said with infinite longing, "When will I be like him?"
Ren Shang looked at Brother Liu worriedly. Brother Liu practiced so desperately, which has completely surpassed his past practice out of curiosity. Ren Shang could guess what was going on in his heart, but he could neither stop nor stop it. It's better to be powerless to help him, or to let him do so, than to watch him sink.
Since I met Mu Tingtao once, Brother Liu has always been envious of him, but it's just that such a fickle and erratic monster like him is not easy to meet, Brother Liu thought he wanted to see him One side must be difficult, but I never thought that within a month, I would have the opportunity to see him again.
There is a deep pool of water in the mountain forest where they live. It is located in the depths of the dense forest and does not see the light of the sun all year round. According to legend, there is a Chilong living among the monsters, and they often go to the edge of the pool to capture living beings for food. I have never seen this Chilong, but the monsters don't go there easily.
Brother Liu has never believed this rumor. Since it is a dragon, why not soar into the sky and curl up in this small pool? If it wants to feed, the mountains and forests are so big and there are so many creatures, why should it be limited to the pool?
However, on this day, Brother Liu saw the dragon with his own eyes.
Brother Liu was sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain cultivating when suddenly the mountain shook, the ground shook slightly, and a muffled thunder-like sound came into his ears. Brother Liu jumped up in the air at once, and when he looked from a distance, he saw a flock of birds flying in the depths of the forest, and countless monsters also flew away from there. . Then there were several thunderstorms, the sky was overcast, and the whole sky was shrouded, and the black air covering the forest was even thicker, and there was a faint smell of fish in the wind. There was something huge churning in the air, and scales and claws loomed.
"Dragon?" Brother Liu muttered to himself.
The monsters were all fleeing from this place, but Brother Liu cautiously leaned on it. He fell from the sky far away, dodging closer and closer. The closer he got to the pool, the demonic energy swept his face, and the air was wet and wet. Brother Liu never imagined that there would be such an aura in the world with such a slight movement. By the pool, Brother Liu sneaked into the ground in the shape of a dog, leaving only a pair of eyes on the ground to check secretly.
Just in time to see a black dragon dancing with its teeth and claws shrank, it turned into a middle-aged man and stood by the pool.
"Haha, finally there is a day to see the sun again!" Heilong opened his hands to the sky and laughed wildly, shaking the branches and leaves of the tree to the point of shivering.
Brother Liu closed his eyes, felt the air suck, and laughed wildly in his ears, making him feel like he wanted to escape.
"Today I'm going to start a big killing ring, haha, Ye Ling, Mu Tingtao, get out of here! I'm going to use your two pieces of wood to beat the tooth sacrifice!" Heilong shouted so loudly, his voice repeating in the mountains and forests Echoing, Brother Liu's eardrums were "buzzed" by the shock.
"What a big breath!"
With a long laugh, Mu Tingtao and another monster flew from the treetops and landed in front of the black dragon. Mu Tingtao was still wearing a blue shirt, with a calm demeanor and a smile on his face, while the other monster was a woman. She looks about the same age as Mu Tingtao on the outside, wearing a long snow-white dress, her cheeks and skin are surprisingly fair, her five outlooks are exquisite, and her figure is graceful. Standing beside Mu Tingtao, he looked at the black dragon with a lazy demeanor.
"This is probably Ye Ling from Heilong's mouth." Brother Liu felt astonished when he saw this woman, but his heart beat even more violently.
As soon as Ye Ling and Mu Tingtao arrived, a faint rosin and the sweetness of locust blossoms permeated the forest, which washed away the disgusting fishy smell.
When Heilong saw them, he clenched his teeth, "Ye Ling, you have trapped Lao Tzu for five hundred years. I can't imagine that there will be another day when I will meet Lao Tzu face to face! I won't eat you today, I will I promise not to be human!"
"You're not human!" Mu Tingtao laughed "chichi", "Having lived under the lake for five hundred years, has your brain been stupid?"
"Ugh... oh~~" Heilong roared loudly and pointed at Ye Ling, "I don't want to argue with you, say, you are your concubine!"
Ye Ling had always looked at all this with a lazy and indifferent expression. Hearing his words, his face sank, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "Kill him!" Shaking his sleeves, he walked to the tree and sat down, tucked his knees with his hands and glared at the black dragon. Mu Tingtao folded his palms and walked towards the black dragon.
"Ling'er has never liked killing, you are out of luck," Mu Tingtao said as he walked, "It's a pity that you made her angry today - her beloved orchid has died, and she is worried."
"Ting Tao!" Ye Ling frowned in anger.
"Okay, let's not talk anymore." Mu Tingtao waved his hand and said, "It would only take you five hundred years at most, but today it will kill you. If you hate it, you will hate stepping on it this morning. Let's go to the monster with the foot of the orchid."
Brother Liu couldn't help shrinking his neck when he heard this. He clearly remembered that when he went up the mountain this morning, he flattened an orchid in the mountain stream with one foot. Could it be...
Heilong shook his body, and suddenly there was a great storm, and in the dance of lightning, he transformed into his original form and rushed towards Mu Tingtao with his teeth and claws. Mu Tingtao waved his sleeves, and the leaves swept away by the strong wind were sucked up from the ground. With his gestures, he gathered into a long green dragon with all scales and claws, rolling and flying in the air, fighting against the black dragon. Stand in place, hands behind your back, just laughing at the point of view.
The two dragons, the real and the fake, fought for a long time. The situation in the mountains and forests changed color. Wherever the two dragons went, the trees were destroyed, and the rocks rolled and the sand flew. Brother Liu was horrified. Ye Ling, who was sitting on his knees, stretched out his hand and flicked off a leaf hanging by the mane, covering his mouth and yawning.
Mu Tingtao had seen her boredom and knew that she was too lazy to waste time here, so she smiled and said, "I won't make fun of you, I'll send you on your way now!"
"Not sure who will be on the road!" the black dragon roared.
"Duh!" Mu Tingtao stretched out his hand a little, and the green dragon disintegrated immediately, recovering into more than ten thousand leaves, each of which shot at the black dragon like a sharp blade. Heilong tried his best to dodge, but a lot of them were still shot in its body, blood-drenched all over his body, and fell from the air. Mu Tingtao soared into the air, tapped his forehead and shouted: "Ji!" Heilong screamed. , his head burst open all of a sudden, Mu Tingtao was afraid that the flesh and brain would get on his body, so he flew backwards, landed on a treetop, looked at Ye Ling with a smile, and said, "Hmph, I can't even beat me. Dare to challenge Linger. Linger, are you in a better mood now?"
Ye Ling patted the dust and stood up and asked, "I want to see the azaleas by the waterfall, are you coming?"
"Come, of course." Mu Tingtao jumped down from the tree and spread out his hands. A shiny bead flew out of the black dragon's flesh and blood and landed in his palm. Brother Liu knew that it must be that The inner alchemy of the black dragon. Sure enough, Mu Tingtao weighed it in his palm a few times, then threw it into his mouth and swallowed it.
"Puppy, have you seen enough?" Mu Tingtao suddenly asked in Brother Liu's direction, and at the same time said to Ye Ling, "This little guy is very courageous."
"Hmph," Ye Ling snorted inexplicably, it seems that her mood has not improved at all because of Heilong's death.
Brother Liu got out of the ground and stood beside him embarrassedly. It turned out that Ye Ling and Mu Tingtao had already discovered him.
"The one who dares to look at this time, you are the only one on this mountain." Mu Tingtao walked over to him and looked him up and down and said, "I can't see that an earth wolf has such courage. "
"I..." Brother Liu heard the contempt in his words and wanted to say something to refute him, but couldn't think of anything to say.
Mu Tingtao took a breath after approaching him, leaned into his ear and said, "Do you smell orchids on your feet?"
Brother Liu took a big step back in fright and looked at him nervously.
Mu Tingtao put a finger to his mouth, winked at him, then patted his shoulder and said, "You are lucky, eating that dragon corpse can also increase your cultivation for a hundred years. , I'll give it to you." After speaking, he walked back to Ye Ling's side and walked into the forest together.
I heard Ye Ling's voice, vaguely resenting Mu Tingtao: "Why are you talking to that dirty puppy?"
"Don't you think he's funny? I'm not afraid to see Hei Chi and us."
"I think he's too scared to walk. I don't like this race."
"I am very interested in him."
"You dare to associate with him, I won't talk to you for three days..."
"Haha... not so much..."
“…”
As they drifted further apart, the voice finally ceased to be heard.
Brother Liu looked at the direction they were leaving, looked at the dragon corpse beside his feet, and turned his head hard, but the fresh smell of plants left by Mu Tingtao and Ye Ling in the air made him stop. , a person started to stare at the pool.
"You didn't eat that dragon?"
Brother Liu was meditating cross-legged as usual when Mu Tingtao appeared behind him at some point and sat down to ask.
"Why should I eat?"
"Haha, what a stubborn tone!" Mu Tingtao asked, "What did I say offend you?"
Brother Liu looked at him strangely.
"It's not bad to cultivate so hard but not to be scolded, it's not bad, it's like when I was young."
"When you were young? Are you very old?"
"Haha," Mu Tingtao burst into laughter for a long time before he stopped laughing and said, "Even what I said was the same as what I said to Ye Ling back then. When Ye Ling picked me up, she told me that I was very happy. Like her young study, I also said that to her."
Brother Liu kept looking at him.
"Don't like me?"
"I don't like it."
"To be honest, I really like you." Mu Tingtao patted his head like a child, "I heard Ren Shang talk about you, how do you get used to living in the world?" /
“…”
"Why do you need to cultivate hard? I have been watching you recently. Your behavior has exceeded the scope of hard work, and it should be called desperate."
"To go home!"
"Return to the country of Qingqiu? Haha, do I think I can go back once my mana is strong?"
"Of course!"
Mu Tingtao covered his ears: "I'm not deaf, you don't need to be so loud, hello, puppy, do you want me to teach you?"
"You, why are you willing to teach me?" Brother Liu asked in disbelief.
"Because I like you, doesn't it mean that you are quite like me before, but don't let Ye Ling know that she doesn't like monsters such as earth wolves and Wushang-because the roots of her body were once captured by them. She has a very small temper and is very vengeful." When he mentioned Ye Ling, the smile on his face became very gentle, "Let her know that you stepped on the orchid she likes. If you don't, you will be miserable!"
"I didn't mean to." Brother Liu muttered softly.
"You think she still cares about this, maybe she uses you as fertilizer to grow flowers."
"Are you really going to teach me?"
"Why did I lie to you? It's been quite boring recently. I'll teach a disciple to play."
"Then, thank you so much..." Brother Liu didn't know if he should get up and salute him, but Mu Tingtao stretched out his arms and legs on the stone, without any pretense to be a teacher, he suddenly asked: " That dragon is still there, I said it was given to you, other monsters dare not move, do you still want to eat it?" After a while, he said, "But it's already stinky." Then he laughed. . Brother Liu looked at him and couldn't help but laugh.
"Mu Tingtao," Zhou Ying repeated the name, "it sounds like he looks a little like you."
"I'm like him." Speaking of Mu Tingtao, Liu Di finally showed a smile on his face, "I've been following him for so long, and before I know it, I'm like him."
"He taught you spells later?"
"Yes, I have taught for many years. He is a good teacher and a good brother..." Liu Di's eyes dimmed again, "He not only taught me spells, but also took me to heaven and earth, broadening my horizons until That year, my grandfather..."
Mu Tingtao walked into the cave, leaned over and said to Brother Liu, "I'm here to guard Mr. Ren, go and rest, you haven't closed your eyes for a few days."
Brother Liu shook his head.
Mu Tingtao knew that he couldn't force him, so he sat down beside him and put a bowl of soup and medicine on Ren Shang's bedside. The herbs are fried, but it seems to have no effect on Renshang.
Half a month ago, Ren Shang suddenly fell ill. At first, he and Brother Liu thought it was just an occasional cold, but they didn't take it seriously. Who knew that the disease would become more and more serious, and he finally fell on the bed and couldn't get up. . Liu brother Zhang Huang was at a loss, afraid and anxious. He stayed by the bed every day to take care of him, and also asked Mu Tingtao to look for medicine, but Ren Shang's condition was still getting worse and worse, and he has not woken up for five days until today.
Brother Liu stayed in front of the bed without eating or drinking for five days. He was about to be overwhelmed by the ominous premonition in his heart. Mu Tingtao sat cross-legged on the futon next to him. He had given up his plan to persuade Brother Liu to rest, because he knew very well that Renshang had been ups and downs for most of his life. , At this point, whether it is spells or medicine stones, it is difficult to treat, so let Liu Ge stay with him for a moment.
Time passed little by little, during which Brother Liu tried to feed the medicine a few times, but Ren Shang coughed out immediately after drinking it, "Grandpa..." Brother Liu grabbed Ren Shang's bony hand and choked. Hard to say.
Mu Tingtao sighed deeply and walked over resolutely. He spat out a bead with a dazzling blue light from his mouth, stretched out his hand, and the bead spun and slowly entered Ren Shang's body.
"Big Brother Mu..." Brother Liu looked at him puzzled.
Mu Tingtao waved his hand, motioning him to pay attention to Ren Shang. At this time, Ren Shang groaned a few times and slowly opened his eyes. Mu Tingtao knew that there must be something to say between their grandparents and grandchildren, so he walked out of the cave with his hands behind.
"Brother Liu," Ren Shang knew his own situation well, he stretched out his hand to Brother Liu tremblingly and coughed. Tears rolled down before he could say anything.
"Grandpa, you'll be awake! It's alright, it's alright, Big Brother Mu saved you with his inner elixir!" Brother Liu said, holding Ren Shang's trembling hand tightly. In fact, he and Ren Shang knew very well that Mu Tingtao's inner alchemy was only helping Ren Shang to support his final spirit, and it could not cure his illness, let alone save his life.
"Brother Liu, what are you going to do when grandpa is gone?" Ren Shang reluctantly replied and fondled Brother Liu, "From now on, you are the only one left in the human world, why can't God give me another fifty years, no? , even if it's only 20 years, let me see that you can be independent from the world, then even if you let me go to the nine secluded and eighteen prisons, I will be good enough. Stay brother, after I die, you have to take good care of yourself , discuss everything with your big brother Mu, you know?"
"Grandpa, don't say such things, we will always live together."
"Liu Ge'er, grandpa is sorry for you, if grandpa didn't go to you back then, you can still live happily in the country of Qingqiu, maybe you would marry a wife and have children long ago, and enjoy family happiness. It's your grandfather who has caused you to leave your hometown. Grandpa regrets it so much! As long as he thinks of this all these years, grandpa's heart is like a knife cutting..." Ren Shang said, beating his chest hard, he rarely mentioned this. Brother Liu didn't dare to ask about this matter, he didn't expect to have such a big regret in his heart. Brother Liu grabbed his hand, shook his head vigorously and said, "No, I have never regretted meeting my grandfather. If I could go back in time, I would still choose to be with my grandfather! Even if I knew I was going to leave my hometown, I would not regret it! I know I did nothing wrong, nor did I violate my conscience!"
"You are a good boy, brother Liu, you must live happily in the future, you will be happier than any monster... It's a pity that grandpa can't see it, can't see it..." /
"Grandpa..." Brother Liu hugged him and wept uncontrollably. Their grandparents and grandchildren wandered together in a foreign land. They have been with each other for more than 20 years. Now that Ren Shang is about to die, it is like the world is about to collapse to Brother Liu. He was in so much pain that he would rather die with his grandfather.
Ren Shang coughed violently again~IndoMTL.com~ Brother Liu hurriedly rubbed his chest. It took a while for him to breathe. That moment was right in front of him. Brother Liu, with tears in his eyes, suddenly let out a long sigh: "Brother Liu, Brother Liu, as long as you live a carefree life in the future, you can change anything for your grandfather!" He said it twice with only his neck. , his eyes were slack, his head was slightly turned to one side, his lips twitched as if he had something to say, but he finally didn't say it, he slowly closed his eyes, the last tear fell on the pillow, and his hand was still tightly holding Brother Liu's hand. release.
In a cloud of light and shadow, the cyan bead rose out of his body and threw it towards the outside of the cave. Mu Tingtao, who was leaning against the tree, opened his mouth and the bead flew straight into his mouth. The mournful cry of Brother Liu had already been heard.
"Alas..." Mu Tingtao sighed and sat down slowly against the tree. Although it was only for a moment, using the inner alchemy to support Ren Shang's broken Yuanshen still hurt Mu Tingtao's vitality.
"You're still hanging out with that puppy." A soft voice came from behind him.
Mu Tingtao didn't look back, just stretched out his hand behind him.
"Let me see," Ye Ling went around in front of him, cupped his face with both hands, frowned and said, "I made my face look so ugly." She opened her mouth and spit out a white gas into Mu Ting. Tao's eyebrows.
Mu Tingtao smiled at her. But Brother Liu's cry came one after another, Mu Tingtao withdrew his smile and looked at the cave worriedly. Ye Ling sat down beside him and put his head on his shoulder. Live this gut-wrenching day.
