Chapter 114 Before dawn, fate meeting(1/2)

Seeing that the sun was about to set again, the color of the clouds in the sky gradually changed to warm colors. Under the sky, a white eagle flew past, and the eagle hovered in the range of the Shuijian Mountain, and at the Shuijian Mountain, about fifty people camped by the river.

Although it seemed like a caravan on the surface, the atmosphere was surprisingly strange. Most of the people were expressionless and without saying a word. Most of them were resting around the fire. A soup pot was soaked with oil stains. The country was sprayed with scent of meat, the soup was rolling, and a stewed baby's arm floated up.

A "customer" was not afraid of being hot, but he reached into the pot to take out the palm of his hand, and bit off a piece of his little finger from it like a chicken's claws. He chewed it in his mouth, and made a giggle sound.

Apart from that, there was no sound, they were as quiet as a group of ghosts who couldn't speak.

Behind them were more than ten tents, and the sound of conversation came from the tent that looked the most spacious. The tent was much more luxurious than the other tents. There was a giant tiger skin in the tent, and Lu Chengming was half lying on the tiger skin at this time. Standing in front of him was Zhuang Youwei, who had been caught by Chen Tunan and the others before.

In Chen Tunan and the others' hearts, Zhuang Youwei was just a clown who knew some strange skills. Now he was standing in front of the tent, facing the smiling Lu Chengming, lowering his head and trembling. Although the temperature in the tent was as warm as spring, his back clothes had already been wet with sweat, and the cold sweat on his forehead was even more ruthless.

This reflection is exactly the same as when Liu Liuqiuqiu met Lu Chengming before.

If we say that Lu Chengming is just the third disciple of the old man Ku Vin, he is still behind Cang Dianpeng. But why are these people so afraid of him?

Lu Chengming squinted his eyes and looked at his fifth junior brothers, then smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? I won't eat you."

"Senior brother, please spare me!" Zhuang Youwei immediately knelt on his knees. Then he said in panic: "My little brother deserves to die. I underestimate those Taoist priests. Please ask your senior brother to be gentle, please ask your senior brother to be gentle!!"

After saying that, he kowtowed like pounding garlic, his forehead hitting the hard land, and soon he was bleeding.

But he still did not stop. The sound of bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang one after another.

Lu Chengming's face was still filled with a bright smile, as if a loving brother was watching his younger brother play. He smiled and said, "Unvalue? Haha. Is it an undervalue? I think you should be fascinated and want to grab credit, right?"

The Zhuang Youwei burst into tears unconsciously, and then he hurriedly cried, "No, no. Senior brother Mingjian. Senior brother Mingjian!!"

"Okay." Lu Chengming smiled and said, "No matter what, the second senior brother and you are here to find the 'Qiankun Stone Cliff', but you started a war with Doumiguan for your own selfish interests, and almost exposed the purpose of this mission. If I hadn't happened to feel nearby, you should know what the consequences would be. Let me ask you, have you told those Taoists that you shouldn't say?"

The reason why Zhuang Youwei is so afraid of Lu Chengming is precisely because of Lu Chengming's status and position in the Yinshan lineage.

The old man Ku Teng had three disciples at the beginning: Lian Kangyang, Cang Dianpeng and Lu Chengming. He first put his own cultivation aside. The three of them later held important positions in the Yinshan lineage. As a senior disciple, Lian Kangyang practiced the evil method of flying heads and was responsible for contacting junior brothers from all walks of life and collecting various kinds of information at the foot of the mountain. The second disciple Cang Dianpeng was born with a wealthy family and had a lot of industries in southern Fujian, so he was in charge of financial matters.

Among his three main disciples, Lu Chengming is not very famous in the world. That is because he has been staying in the sect and rarely goes down the mountain. As the saying goes, no rules cannot make a square and no order. Each force must have its own means of reward and punishment. Lu Chengming is the person in charge of punishment in the Yinshan lineage.

In addition to controlling rewards and punishments, he also serves as the purchase of babies in various places every year and is responsible for screening. Although this person has a smile on his face all year round, it is said that he is a person without any feelings. Once a person is ruthless, he is even more fierce than a monster. Lu Chengming's methods are extremely cruel and he likes to torture his brothers who make mistakes. Anyone who falls into his hands often ends up in a very miserable way. He really wants to survive and die.

Why did he come here? It is really considered a matter of God's will. It is said that a few years ago, the Yinshan lineage was attacked. At that time, someone secretly sneaked into Wuyin Mountain and killed many people, and also kidnapped a group of babies who had been "Apocalypse". When the old man Ku Vine found out, he ordered the investigation of the matter. You must know what the territory of Wuyin Mountain is? Even the disciples of Doumi Guan Yunlong Temple within a hundred miles did not dare to step in. Which guy who had eaten the courage of the bear heart and leopard dared to come here to be presumptuous?

As the responsible person for the care of the children, Lu Youwei was naturally unforgivable, so he punished himself for suffering from the suffering of thousands of ants. Then he volunteered to go out to find the five missing babies. He had been searching outside for two years before he received the news this year that it turned out that the sneak attack on Yinshan was caused by Peacock Village, so he came to Qishan.

This was really a coincidence, and the demon who appeared in the world also joined the battle.

Last night, Zhuang Youwei tried to escape while Li Hanshan was sleepy, but was shot by Li Hanshan. In fact, he ran away just to cover up. While he was jumping into the sky, he yelled and used his magic to control a nearby hare. He wanted the hare to ask for help and report the news, but he unexpectedly attracted such a big devil.

Although they are fellow disciples, Zhuang Youwei knew in his heart that Lu Chengming's personality was even more distorted than Cang Dianpeng. After all, Cang Dianpeng's interest was just to harm outsiders, but Lu Chengming didn't even want to let go of the brothers in the sect. Now it fell into his hands, and he could only pray that this devil with extremely distorted personality would be relieved of himself.

So he hurriedly cried, "I don't dare. Even if I have ten thousand courages, I dare not disclose the instructions given by my master to those thieves and Taoists."

After saying that, he started kowtowing again, and Lu Chengming smiled at him, "I don't have the courage, but even if you tell them, it's okay. Anyway, the Taoist priest has been arrested. You told me that Cang Dianpeng was missing? That's okay, hehe. After I flatten the Peacock Village tomorrow and catch the little girl Liuliu, I will go to find the 'Qiankun Stone Cliff' again."

Hearing what he said, he seemed to have forgiven Zhuang Youwei. Zhuang Youwei looked up and said, "Thank you, brother, for saving my life. I will be the leader of the horse in the future to serve my senior brother and his master! He said that if you want to catch Liuliu alone?"

"Haha." Lu Chengming said, "Who are you talking to? Why should I tell you? Who else asked you to stop and continue to kowtow. Knead the skull first."

Zhuang Youwei felt cold in his heart, but when he saw Lu Chengming staring at him, he knew in his heart that his life was still in his hands, in order to survive, he even claimed that he was, and then gritted his teeth and knocked his head to the ground again.

Lu Chengming seemed to enjoy this voice very much. He leaned back, stared at the top of the tent and smiled: "Get the Yangyan, grab the resentment of a hundred people, and then find the Qiankun Stone Cliff. Haha. Master will definitely be very happy."

There was a conspiracy brewing in the tent, and the expressionless people outside the tent seemed to be full now. The bones of the children were scattered all over the ground, and the smell of meat attracted the raccoons and wild dogs in the mountains, as if they wanted to get a piece of the pie, but they only dared to look at them from afar, because the instinct of the animals told them that these guys with a faint smell of fishy smell were definitely not good people.

As the sun sets west, the wind blows.

The white eagle was in the air for a long time. Then she flew towards the Peacock Village, and saw its wings gliding. It landed lightly on Xiaobai's shoulders, looked at Xiaobai with its eagle eyes, and cooed a few times.

In fact, Shisheng didn't understand how an eagle could make a chicken cry, but at this time he had no strength to think about this problem. After a while, Xiaobai sighed to them: "There is no trace of them by the lake. The group of people camped by the river at the foot of the mountain. They were very fierce, and Bai Guang dared not fly low, so he didn't know where they were locked up."

"Oh." Shisheng and Liu Bolun sighed. Now they have reached such a turmoil. What methods does that guy named Lu Chengming have to arrest Li Hanshan, who is capable.

You should know that after Lu Chengming went up the mountain and went down the war letter, the entire Peacock Village was in full state. The three and four village masters were organizing people to strengthen various defenses to deal with tomorrow's challenges. They did not seem to want to take the initiative. After all, they still couldn't figure out what Lu Chengming had in his conspiracy. Moreover, the Peacock Village relied on the top of the mountain with the terrain that was easy to defend but difficult to attack, so blind attacking would only be detrimental to them.

Speaking of which, Liu Liuqiuqiu and his two children were violently frightened. At this time, Zhiyuan took them to rest. Although the village prepared meals for them, all of them were unfair, including Shisheng.

For the first time, he found that he couldn't eat anything. It might be related to the fatigue of the past few days and the things he encountered, but he couldn't express it in front of Liu Bolun and Xiaobai, so he forced himself to eat a little, and the atmosphere was tightly suppressed, so Shisheng walked out on the grounds of convenience.

He was wandering around the village, exploring those clueless things in his heart. The bandits around him were all busy. They passed by him. Shisheng felt like transparent air. The sunset stretched his shadow. Shisheng lowered his head and looked at his shadow. He thought of his monk master again. The longing brought loneliness. Under the pressure, loneliness and irrationality began to breed again.

For some reason, he was afraid to see the white-haired old man. Although the old man was in the village at this moment, Shisheng began to fear. He was afraid that the old man would not have what they wanted. At the same time, he was afraid that Chen Tunan and Li Hanshan would encounter an accident. He was alone at this time, and he was walking alone, not knowing what to do.

However, at this moment, he suddenly felt something flying towards him behind him, so the teacher and student subconsciously turned their heads and reached out to pick it up. The thing was grabbed by him, and it turned out to be a yellow and orange pear.

Shisheng was stunned for a moment. He looked up and saw that on the thatched roof in the distance, the young man surnamed Shi who had shot arrows before was grabbing the slingshot and nodding at him, smiling slightly to signal him to go over.

Shisheng took a bite of the pear and then jumped onto the hut. The roof was really a garbage team, from the rattle played by children to the golden hammers used by strong men. There were also a pile of fruits next to the young man. He said to Shisheng, "Eat."

Shisheng was not full just now. At this time, the young man who saw him seemed to have something to say to him, so he nodded and sat down. The scenery he saw was indeed different. The view opposite the hut was wide open, and the sunset was only seen. In the distance, Cui Wei surrounded the mountains, the sea of ​​clouds rushing in the sky, and the cool breeze hit, making people sigh at the magnificent beauty of nature.

The young man surnamed Shi finished eating the pear, looked at the sunset and said lightly: "Tomorrow will be a good weather."

Shisheng responded, and then neither of them spoke again. After a while, the young man surnamed Shi said softly: "I was also rescued by the second leader in Wuyin Mountain. Five of us, only three of us survived. Do you know how those two people died?"

His tone was plain and he stuttered a little. After hearing this, Shisheng looked at him in surprise. The young man's expression was still very calm. He continued, "They were all scared to death because they could not pass this level of fear."

After saying that, he told Shisheng about this in a tone that seemed to be describing others.

Most of them were discarded or sold by their parents since childhood, and then resold by human traffickers to Lu Chengming. There were several special caves in Wuyin Mountain. I heard from the young man surnamed Shi that he had lived a livestock-like life since they could remember. In fact, since they arrived at this Peacock Village, they realized how terrifying hell they had lived in before.

They are all people who have suffered from the "little apocalypse". However, since most children are young and have no enlightenment, most of them cannot use their abilities freely. In order to refine their abilities in the shortest time and brainwash them for their own use, Lu Chengming sets rules for them. If the daily goal is not achieved, not only will they not have food to eat, but they will also have to cut a knife on the back. There is also a parallel every month. If no one has reached their expected goal at the end of the month, then this person will be killed by Lu Chengming on the spot, and they will be boiled into soup in front of them, and they will be forced to eat it.

When the young man surnamed Shi talked about this, he took off his coat casually. There were dozens of convex scars on his sturdy back, which were shocking.

He said lightly: "I used to have a brother who was sold there with me. He was not lucky... I didn't know how I ate his meat at that time."

I didn't expect that there was such a miserable thing in the world.

Shisheng looked at the archer blankly, and the scene of meeting Liu Liuqiu today appeared in his mind. It was unimaginable that they had such a tragic past.

Shisheng wanted to say something, but found that he didn't know how to speak at all. He could only continue to listen to the young man surnamed Shi: "I only remember that he had been looking at me before he died. I will never forget the look of his eyes in my life..."

When he talked about this, his tone finally began to fluctuate. He sighed lightly and said, "Later, the second head saved us, so that we understood what freedom is and what 'people' is. However, two of the five of us have been imprisoned for a long time. Although they yearn for a new life, they still cannot get rid of the shadow of those evil people. Liu Liu and Qiuqiu are the same. They were afraid when they first arrived here. Once they hurt Sister Zhiyuan, but Sister Zhiyuan never blamed them. Instead, they took care of themselves more carefully. They hugged them and fell asleep every day. Gradually, they became cheerful."

Speaking of this, the young man stood up, took a deep breath and said, "I am the same. I have no relatives until I meet them, they are my relatives. So, no matter what happens, I will never allow anyone to hurt them."

In the setting sun, the wind blew his hair, and the young man surnamed Shi shone with a firm look in his eyes. His words had a great feeling for Shisheng. Shisheng felt that although he did not have his experience, he could fully understand his feelings.

Because of what he said, I have said.

I don’t have brothers, they are my brothers, and I absolutely do not allow anyone to hurt them!

When Shisheng thought of this, he punched himself hard. Yes, why is he depressed here? Isn’t there some difficulties in front of him? Who would have no problems in living in this world?

What are you afraid of when you have difficulties? Just face it and find a way to solve it. Didn’t I just keep walking like this before?

Why didn’t I understand such a simple question just now?

It's very wonderful. Sometimes things that we all know are still knots in our hearts under different circumstances.

Fortunately, after hearing the young man surnamed Shi, Shisheng finally figured it out again, so he felt a relaxed body and mind, and was very grateful to the young man surnamed Shi. Shisheng said to him: "We don't know each other, why do you... say these to me?"

The young man smiled embarrassedly, then sat down cross-legged, picked up a pear and handed it to Shisheng and said, "I don't know why. Maybe I always heard Sister Zhiyuan talk about you before. He said you are a great hero, but I saw your eyes just now... I was very familiar with it. It seemed like this before. By the way, you were worried just now, did you have any problems?"

"No more." Shisheng grinned. Then he bit the pineapple in his hand. The pear was very crisp and sweet. At this time, Shisheng's heart was already open, so he smiled at the young man and said, "There is no problem. But it's just a common ditches. Just step over it. Do you think, a drunk?"

Liu Bolun and Xiaobai nodded under the hut. Although you cannot enlighten you pretentiously when you are sad, you will accompany you from beginning to end.

Liu Bolun and Xiaobai had already seen the clues when they went out of Shisheng, so they quietly went out and followed silently. Shisheng's conversation with the young man on the hut was naturally heard in their ears, and they felt sad about the life experience of the young man and the twin sisters.

When you see that people who are more bumpy than your fate can still live optimistically, what reason do you have to continue to complain about the pressure on yourself?

"Opportune." Liu Bolun laughed, then turned over and went into the room. He held the young man's shoulder. This was his way to make friends. He smiled at the young man and said, "Little brother, you're a man, come and have a drink and let's be friends."

After saying that, he took the wine and poured it on. The young man seemed not good at dealing with people. After a sip of wine, his face turned red. Liu Bolun laughed, and Shisheng turned to look at Xiaobai. Xiaobai also nodded to her, his eyes full of gentleness.

At this time, the sun finally set.

In the evening, Zhiyuan found them, and the twin sisters finally stabilized their emotions and had already fallen asleep. So Zhiyuan was free and found this place. Seeing that the few people were already chatting with Shi Xiaoda, and the unusual smile appeared on Shi Xiaoda's face, Zhiyuan felt much more relaxed.

This is how Shisheng is. Although sometimes he can cause trouble in his head, he can always bring warmth to the people around him invisibly. Although he himself doesn't know why.

At this time, the Milky Way and the Starry Sky above their heads were flashing. When Shisheng and the others saw that Zhiyuan was coming, they called her to come up to take a break for a while, but Zhiyuan shook her head and refused. She said to the people that she had time now and wanted to take a few people to see the old man they were looking for first.

Although the old man has not yet woken up, since Peacock Village will face a great enemy tomorrow, Zhiyuan, as the leader of the five villages, naturally has no time to have free time, so he can only take advantage of this opportunity to take Shisheng and others to do their business.

Now that Shisheng's confidence has returned, he nodded. After the three of them bid farewell to Shi Xiaoda, they walked towards the backyard with Zhiyuan. The huts in that area were all the residences of brothers in the village. Zhiyuan and Xiaobai walked side by side. He said to Shisheng and the others: "This old man has a weak constitution and seems to have not had a rest for a long time. He was hit in his head before. He has been unconscious for nearly two days. I don't know when he will wake up... You will know after you look."

The three nodded, and while they were talking, several people came to an outside of a hut. The kiln gently pushed open the door, took out the fire and lit the oil lamp. Shi Sheng looked at it, but saw that there was only a small bed in the simple thatched hut with an oil lamp, and the strange old man they had seen was lying on the bed.

I remember the morning I saw him a few days ago. The old man looked so lively, and how could he look like he was about to die now?

Finally found him, Shisheng sighed in his heart: May the heaven open his eyes and bless the Dongluo people to survive this disaster.

After saying that, several people went up to take a look. The old man was covered with white cloth on his head, his face was pale, and his cheeks were trampling in. Although his breathing was even, he was weak, and he was indeed seriously injured.

After seeing the old man, Liu Bolun said to Shisheng: "It's this old man, Shisheng, do you think we need to wake him up? I heard that no matter how dead a person sleeps, he will wake up as long as he pours wine into his nose and eyes. Why don't we try it?"

After saying that, he picked up the wine gourd and shook it. Shisheng hurriedly shook his head. The old man was so weak, he was really afraid that Liu Bolun would pour him into Yin City with one sip of wine.

And at this moment, the sharp-eyed Xiaobai suddenly said, "Ah, Brother Shisheng, knock this uncle in the ear!"

Shisheng was stunned for a moment, then stroked his body and looked at it. He saw that the old man had a small piece of ears exposed under his white hair, which was a circle smaller than that of ordinary people.

Suddenly he thought of something, so he hurriedly reached out and pulled away his clothes. He saw two dry fish-sized broken skins on both sides of the old man's neck. Seeing this scene. Shisheng turned around and looked at Xiaobai, who nodded to him, and Shisheng's joy was beyond words.

Sure enough, this old man has something to do with the conch!
To be continued...
