Chapter 41: Demons and Humans, thatched hut in the mountains
Since leaving the Qian family's mansion, no one said a word.
The sunshine outside was still there. Shisheng walked out of the back building. After knocking down the monster hunters, Shisheng raised his head. The sky was blue, but his heart was in a daze.
For a moment, hell on earth, just in the kitchen that was still like hell, but now he has returned to the sun, Shisheng felt confused.
He subconsciously sniffed, feeling the stinky smell in the kitchen that made him feel extremely unhappy.
The reason why monsters are called monsters is because they eat people, and what about humans? What should people say about eating monsters?
Some monsters eat people just to survive, while some people eat monsters because of what?
In this chaotic world, who is the monster and who is the human being?
Shisheng can't tell the difference, at least it's like this now.
They didn't say anything, and just walked out of the wall in a daze. When Mr. Bao, who had been waiting outside the wall for a long time, saw that they had come out, he hurriedly met. He looked at the Hongmao whose face was completely destroyed, and then looked at the lonely people, as if he had already understood something.
He pulled off his sleeves and bandaged the wound on his face for the almost exhausted Red Lady, and then said to everyone: "You should have seen it. Sorry, I could have stopped you, but my mission does not allow it."
"So you've known that the Qian-sen monster had already been?" Among the four, Liu Bolun was stronger, but after seeing the hellish scene just now, he no longer had the time to laugh, so he asked Mr. Bao: "Since you know, why didn't you say it earlier? We participated in the farce a few days ago and were still used as a gun by this old boy? Who are you?"
Mr. Bao shook his head and said, "I said that when the time comes, I will tell you that although I know all this, I cannot change it because this is your fate. If fate makes you choose this path, you must face it."
"Don't tell me any shitty truths like fate!" Liu Bolun was furious, and he shouted at Mr. Bao: "Do you think this can kill us?"
"I understand." Mr. Bao sighed: "I want to take her to see the doctor now. I will not break my promise. I will take you to find the Liuli Baowu House. Tomorrow, at noon, on the hillside southwest outside Macheng, there is a thatched hut there, and I will wait for you there."
After saying that, Mr. Bao supported the weak Hongmao and turned around and left slowly, leaving behind four people who were equally lonely.
Because of his irritability, the four of them did not chase Mr. Bao, and they all felt extremely tired.
So when he returned to the inn, Xiaobai saw that Shisheng and the others had a surprisingly bad expression, so he asked, while Shisheng shook his head and told Xiaobai not to ask again.
No one wants to recall or mention that matter again.
Although Ma Shangqian's death has not been exposed yet, this incident has arisen because of them. After returning to Doumi Temple, you must have an explanation.
Ma Shang has a great power in money. If he loses his financial support, Dou Miguan's status may change, and even the restraint of all parties in the world will change.
But this is no longer what Shisheng thought. As he said, if the supporters of Doumi Temple are like Ma Shang's money, then he really doesn't want to be Doumi disciples!
All night, Liu Bolun was drinking a slutty wine, but Li Hanshan had insomnia, and Chen Tunan did not say a word since he came back. Shisheng lay on the bed and tossed and turned and thought about a sentence: Who is the real monster in this chaotic world?
He couldn't figure it out or understand it. When dawn was approaching, he remembered the duck-headed Taoist priest in the woods. Although the old Taoist was crazy, he was a wise man.
Maybe he can give me an answer. Shisheng thought.
When it was dawn, everyone had not slept all night. Xiaobai was very sensible, so he didn't ask, but just bought breakfast and everyone ate silently. When Liu Bolun saw that everyone was full of energy, he slapped his thighs and said to everyone: "Okay! Don't think about it, look at what you all look like?"
Everyone was stunned, and Li Hanshan sighed: "I have never been sleeping at night since I was born. I was just thinking about how to tell my master and the head after I returned to the mountain."
"Don't think about it if you can't figure it out." Liu Bolun stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Li Hanshan and Shisheng's shoulders, and then said to them: "How can we distinguish right from wrong in this world so clearly? Besides, I believe that our elders in Doumi Temple are not pedantic people. There must be roads before the car arrives at the mountain. If there is something, let's carry it together. What are the men who stand tall and upright fearing?"
His temperament has always been like this. After hearing Liu Bolun's words, Shisheng felt a little relieved. Yes, no matter what, he still has these friends to trust.
Li Hanshan looked at Chen Tunan pitifully, and Chen Tunan, who looked a little haggard, nodded and nodded.
At this point, everyone is happy again.
Although they have experienced so many incredible things and seen all kinds of dark things, they still have to go on their way. Just as Liu Bolun said, don’t think about things that cannot be thought of.
No matter what, the matter has been resolved this time. Although it is disgusting, after Ma Shangqian dies, no one will hire monster hunters to kill monsters to eat.
They cannot save sentient beings in troubled times because they are part of sentient beings, and they can only do what they can, maybe this is enough.
It was just a pain for Mr. Xiao. The reason why his father never went home was probably because he was obsessed with the flesh and blood of demons in the cellar of the back building, and he had a dream of immortality.
Finally, they were regained their spirits, so everyone cleaned up and prepared to go to the appointment of Mr. Bao Bao. Because they went down the mountain this time to find the "Lilac Treasure House". Although they didn't know what Mr. Bao Che came from, after these contacts, they felt that this person was unfathomable and was quite reliable in doing things.
So since he said this, he should be able to lead everyone to find the treasure of heaven and earth.
What kind of magic weapon is the Glazed Treasure House? Why is it the key to ascending to immortality? Everyone thought of this and felt a little expectant.
At noon, the four of them left the door, and Xiaobai stayed in the inn and waited as usual, while the four of them left Macheng as instructed by Mr. Bao and walked towards the northwest.
There were several small hills in the northwest. Sure enough, the four of them found a small thatched hut on the hillside. Since Mr. Bao asked them to wait for him inside, the four of them entered the house.
There is no dust in this small house, unlike if I haven't lived in a long time. The decorations in the house are quite exquisite. A desk is leaning against the window, and a two-story desk is placed beside the desk, with some bamboo slips on it, two landscape paintings on the wall, and a sword is hung beside the painting, and the rest is a small bamboo bed, with a box under the bamboo bed.
Everyone was waiting for Mr. Bao in the room, but Mr. Bao had not arrived for a long time. Everyone was a little annoyed and rested. Li Hanshan did not sleep all night and lay directly on the bamboo bed. Chen Tunan took off the sword on the wall and looked at it. He found that he had just put the iron thing next to him.
At this moment, the sky outside was covered with dark clouds and raining again. When Shisheng saw that it was raining, he walked to the bed, took the long iron bar that opened the window and closed the window. As soon as he closed the window, Liu Bolun was overjoyed and said, "Hey, this gourd is good."
It turned out that Liu Bolun found a wine gourd on the table, so he held it in his hand and played with it for a while, then he felt bored and flipped through the books on the case. One of the books about wine was very much for his appetite, so he started reading it.
Just as everyone was bored, they heard a thunderclap outside the room without any warning! A bang! Everyone was stunned. Then, they felt that the whole hut was shaking violently, as if it was about to collapse. Everyone was shocked, so they could not care about anything. Shisheng grabbed Li Hanshan, who was still sleeping, and followed everyone to rush out of the house with one step.
But as soon as they left the house, they were stunned again.
I saw the sunny outside the house and the sky was cloudless. How could it be so rainy just now?
What's going on?
Just when they were surprised, Mr. Bao suddenly heard from behind them: "You have already chosen it."
Everyone turned around when they heard the sound, but saw that the hut was gone at this time, while the young master Bao looked at them with helpless look. Shisheng saw this scene and couldn't figure out what had happened just now. So he asked, "Why are you here?"
"I've been there all the time." Mr. Bao said.
"Then, then are you..." Shisheng suddenly felt that he had figured out something. He looked at this 'Young Master Bao', but he couldn't say what he was thinking.
And Mr. Bao nodded and sighed: "Yes, I am that hut, which is the 'glazed treasure house' you have been looking for."
(The two updates are completed and will continue tomorrow.)
