In this small cave belonging to demons, although each human and animal kingdom is regarded as an important property of their respective demon forces, no demon came to patrol for three days after the horse demon was killed by warriors in each city.
In addition to a few monsters with not too high cultivation levels in some big cities they passed along the way, they also saw some monsters patrolling when Ji Yuan and the old beggar passed through the border of the so-called human and animal kingdom. From this it can be seen that the history of the kingdom of humans and animals must be very long, and a kind of running-in rule has been formed between them, which is also the so-called demons rarely appear in front of people.
Of course, there are also some things that will definitely make the people in the cave understand their situation. For example, when the people of Tianyuzhou were taken captive to form a new country, some aborigines would pull carts with food and be swept to certain places by the evil wind. At this time, those numb people can recall the fear deep in their souls, but they will anesthetize themselves again as soon as they return.
Ji Yuan and the old beggar came to Feidun for about an hour, and they had already arrived in a country that was originally a country of humans and animals. Looking down at the earth from the air, the people in each town were very depressed. It was not that the population was too small, but It feels like the flame is too small.
The two of them landed in what seemed to be the largest city on their way. This would be the busiest time in the morning. The streets in the city were full of people. There were shops doing business and vendors selling various small commodities. People’s faces were Everyone has an expression on his face, not as numb as when he went to deliver food to the new country. Instead, everyone is talking and laughing as he looks at them.
"Hmph, living in a false dream."
The old beggar mocked, Ji Yuan shook his head and sighed.
"Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, joy, anger, sorrow, and joy. This is normal."
The two fell down on the street, but people frequently paid attention to them as they walked. Not only the people in front of them looked at them, but even the people passing by kept looking back. Some people had curiosity on their faces, while others looked at them. People will show fear after regaining consciousness, but they will not dare to leave in a hurry. Instead, they will pretend to leave step by step.
"Interesting, Mr. Ji, what do you think?"
Of course the old beggar and Ji Yuan saw people's reactions. The former asked Ji Yuan quite playfully, while the latter thought for a while.
"Mr. Lu's clothes are not too obtrusive, but Ji's clothes are not too luxurious outside, but they stand out here. Here, dressed like Ji, do you think the common people What will come to mind after being curious?”
The old beggar also sighed.
"The man-eating monster."
Different from the millions of newly abducted people in Tianyuzhou, these aborigines here have almost all lived here for generations. Their clothes are very different from those outside, and many of them are even half-clothed. , the coarse linen clothes outside are several grades brighter than the ones here.
Ji Yuan and the old beggar turned a blind eye to the fear of the people. They just looked at the streets they passed and everything they could come into contact with, and they also discovered more and more situations that were different from the outside world.
Except for clothing, there is little etiquette here, and there is no literature and literature. Even the shops have no signboards. Only the shopkeepers will shout a few words. There is not a word in the book and there is almost no coin transaction. , but some "impractical" stones were exchanged in barter, and even gold appeared, but the real hard currency was medicinal materials.
It seems that there is not much shortage of food. I think the monsters will ensure that the weather is smooth here.
After walking for less than half of the city, Ji Yuan and the old beggar seemed a little tired from walking, so they sat down at an open-air shed. It didn't matter that they sat down, but they frightened the grandfather and grandson in charge of the shed, but I didn't dare to pretend that I couldn't see it, but the surrounding pedestrians subconsciously walked away from the stall, or simply didn't go this way.
The old man saw that Ji Yuan and the old beggar were numb. Even Ji Yuan's feeling of closeness that made ordinary people feel close to each other was useless. He grabbed his grandson who was playing beside him, lowered his head and whispered to him.
"Hide behind the car. Your parents will come looking for you when it gets dark. Remember to hide here and don't come out. Wait for your parents to come. Wuwu..."
The old man wiped his tears as he spoke. His grandson helped him wipe it blankly, and was hugged by the old man. After a while, he stood up, picked up the tray and walked to Ji Yuan and the teapot. In front of the old beggar's table, a pair of slightly trembling hands placed the teapot on the table.
"Two, please, two gentlemen, please have tea..."
The old man spoke with trembling. He looked up at him and could see that the other person was extremely scared. The old beggar frowned and then shook his head.
"Do you think we are here to eat your monsters? Also, at your age, according to the rules of this country of humans and animals, it is almost time for 'natural elimination'."
The old man's body suddenly trembled, and his face turned pale with fright. Of course, he has had his own ups and downs in life over the years, but there is always a reminder hanging in his heart. To be able to reach this point in his life safely, his luck cannot be considered bad. .
Seeing that the old man was frightened, Ji Yuan couldn't bear to scare him any more and comforted him softly with calm words.
"Don't worry, old man. Mr. Lu and I are not monsters. We are just sitting at your stall today to rest, and we don't want to eat from you. You can take your grandson home after closing the stall in the evening."
"Thank you, uncle, thank you, uncle. I kowtow to you, I kowtow to you, thank you, uncle!"
The old man was about to kneel down as he spoke, but the old beggar held him up with one hand.
"Hey, Mr. Ji has already said that we are not monsters, and you don't need to kneel down. Come over and make some food."
The old man wiped the sweat from his face, promised repeatedly, and hurriedly worked on the cart stove, looking for all the meat he could find. Anyway, he didn't dare to let Su's take the majority.
"If you live a life of deceiving yourself, you will eventually be awakened by nightmares one day."
Ji Yuan sighed and opened the tea cup to pour tea for the old beggar and himself. After taking a sip, Ji Yuan frowned slightly, but still chose to continue drinking. The old beggar did the same, but Ji Yuan did not fall. The old beggar also didn't want to refill the second cup.
"Mr. Ji, when you and I first met in Yunzhou, I had traveled all over the world and lamented that the world was not good. Today I have gained some experience. When it comes to hard times, there are many places more miserable than this. , but if you say that you are not a human being, then there is no one else. When the cave is shattered, how will humans, animals, and people see the light of day again? ”
"Of course there will be people who will educate them. The people here have been persecuted for hundreds of years and thousands of years. The deeper the oppression, the greater the rebound. Those who had previously sent food to the new country, after witnessing Zuo Wuji and three people killing demons in succession, Don’t you feel hot in your heart?”
When Ji Yuan spoke to the old beggar, he did not speak clearly, nor did he lower his voice. The old man at the stall was also listening when he was preparing to eat. His fear gradually decreased, and he looked at the two sitting people. People just feel that just looking at them makes their hearts calm down faster.
Soon, the old man heated and cooked the meat. The best seasoning here was salt and very few spices. He walked to Ji Yuan and the old beggar’s table with a tray. On the tray was There were two large basins, one filled with meat, the other with broth and vegetables, and a lot of steamed bun-like pasta stuffed in the gaps between the trays.
The old beggar looked at the rich food, shook his head and smiled.
"With so many dishes, I didn't expect that you and I would be blessed by monsters."
Ji Yuan raised his eyebrows and said lightly.
"You have to pay."
"I am a beggar, so of course I work for Mr. Ji."
The old beggar didn’t blush. He took the chopsticks out of the chopstick cage and ate a large piece of meat.
Ji Yuan was a little helpless, so he also took out chopsticks and started eating. Maybe it was because he hadn't eaten anything for a long time, so he thought the taste was okay.
"Old man, are you living a comfortable life in this life?"
The old beggar chewed pieces of meat and asked the old man with a smile. This question shocked the old man again, but he was not as exaggerated as his previous reaction and just nodded.
"I have children and grandchildren, so it's quite comfortable to look for Shuyuanｗｗｗ.zhaosｈhuyuan.com..."
"Then do you want your children and grandchildren, and your children and grandchildren's children and grandchildren, to continue to live like this?"
The old man didn’t know how to answer. He looked down at his grandson who was still hiding under the kitchen cart and said nothing for a long time. Ever since he was sensible, he often had nightmares. Growing up, some of his peers disappeared and some elders passed away. He also heard that He said a lot of "normal" things, some words he never dared to say, but this time, after being silent for a long time, he whispered something out of nowhere.
"This is our fate...what's the use of not wanting to think about it?"
The old beggar tapped the bowl with his chopsticks.
“Ding~”
“There are still people who can be saved.”
"If you can't help it, do you want thousands of people here to go to Yunzhou?"
Ji Yuan smiled at the old beggar, and then looked at the old man at the stall.
"Old man, we are not locals. We come here from a very far away place, and our money may not be suitable for circulation here..."
The old beggar will mutter something now.
"Mr. Ji must have gold..."
However, Ji Yuanquan pretended not to hear, but continued slowly and softly.
"If not, how about Ji telling you a story to offset the meal?"
How dare the old man say no? He agreed repeatedly, and Ji Yuan started talking.
“All things are born between heaven and earth, flowers, plants and trees grow towards the sun, birds and animals inhabit their respective places, and humans who live among them are the primates of all things in the world...”
Ji Yuan's narration was not loud, but it spread far. Slowly, more and more people gathered at the old man's stall to listen to Ji Yuan's bizarre and bizarre stories about the world.
In the story, people have their own joys and sorrows, there are harmony and happiness as well as natural and man-made disasters, life has ups and downs, joys and sorrows, poems, books, rituals and music, and people from all walks of life. Not everything is perfect, but it is a colorful story. The world...
