"How could this be so..."
Shen Tang stopped in front of the woman.
The latter looked at the black-faced man held by Shen Tang in shock and fear.
She was afraid that a ferocious wild boar would rush up and trample her to death.
But she didn't dare to say anything to chase people away, so she could only shrink and tremble all over.
The woman closed her eyes in despair, but no matter how scared she was, she never let go of her son. This scene moved people and raised eyebrows. Of course, only Qi Shan and the two were moved. The other people were already hard-hearted and were not surprised by the strange things.
Either his eyes were numb and lost in thought, or his mouth curled up in gloating, waiting to see a good show and relieve the pressure.
"Don't be afraid, it won't hurt anyone."
"Can I see your child?"
Hearing this, the woman looked up hesitantly at the young girl in front of her. Although the girl's facial features are not open, it can be predicted that many years later, the word "beautiful" will be written on it. This girl and her companions are incompatible with this land.
The woman hesitated for a moment and slowly let go of her arms.
Shen Tang knelt down and touched the pulse point on the side of the child's wrist. But as soon as her fingertips touched that layer of skin, before she could take a closer look at the pulse, she felt a thump in her heart - because the skin touched by her fingertips was cold and stiff. There was no pulse.
Looking at the child who was quietly curled up and taking a nap in his mother's arms, Shen Tang's pupils trembled slightly. Despite the woman's expectant gaze, she couldn't even utter a single word. The child's head was facing the woman's arms. Because of her previous holding position, Shen Tang did not realize that the child had died.
Shen Tang lowered his head and retracted his hand.
The woman was completely unaware and asked, "Madam, do you want to buy my son?"
Zhai Le is sensitive to breath and saw that the child was out of breath early in the morning. After hearing the conversation between Shen Tang and Shen Tang, he was about to say something but Qi Shan raised his hand to stop him. He hesitated in place, the words he wanted to say mixed together and turned into a complex sigh.
Brother Shen looks like he is new to the world, and he is soft-hearted about everything.
He had seen too many similar scenes.
Sometimes he couldn't help but question himself, what's his use? Why can't acquiring martial arts help these people?
Powerless to change.
Brother Shen has a pure mind and is probably even more uncomfortable.
Shen Tang nodded: "Yes, buy it, how much?"
If an ordinary person called her "Ms.", Shen Tang would probably complain about someone's bad eyesight, but the woman's "Ms." made her feel unspeakably sour. She blinked, trying to push back the inexplicable sourness.
The woman's cloudy and tired eyes suddenly lit up.
"No, not much, four or forty coins."
Probably because he was too excited, his voice was thin and trembling, and his tongue was so anxious that he wanted to fight with his teeth, and he almost bit the tip of his tongue.
"Yes, I bought it."
The woman gulped down her thanks: "Okay...thank you, thank you!"
"Do you have any other requests, madam?"
The woman was confused for a moment when asked.
After a long while, the rusty and jammed parts in his brain began to function slowly and feebly, and he finally understood what Shen Tang was saying. She hesitated: "Mom, can you...can you let him eat more? He is very good, he doesn't eat much, he is obedient, sensible and filial..."
As he spoke, muddy tears fell from his eyes one by one.
Tick tick tick tick, dripping on the child's already blue side face.
The woman also murmured how well-behaved and obedient the child was.
Shen Tang said: "Well, that's no problem."
She counted forty coins and handed it to the woman, and also added a piece of cake. This transaction caused whispers from nearby "stalls".
Shen Tang heard it clearly and lowered his eyes and ignored it.
He just clenched his teeth secretly and tightened the flesh of his cheeks.
The man whispered: "Is this woman sick? The baby has been cold all day... This baby's mother is an adulterer, and she will be sold alive for a living price."
Another person leaned over and said, "Women are better than us men. Money will come when you cry. You can buy a dead body and take it back... Tsk, you prodigal bitch, but you are giving money to help others collect the body..."
The third person smacked his lips and rolled his eyes: "Humph, she was lucky enough to meet a stupid bitch. A dead one can be sold for five cents, which is good. It doesn't have a few taels of meat, and the bones are worth the firewood..."
Someone else smiled maliciously and said, "You're going to be fooled!"
In the past, there were many "sellers" who took advantage of the sympathy of stranger buyers to extort money from them. There were many scammers. They expected Shen Tang to be ashamed, embarrassed, angry and annoyed when he found out that he had been cheated. That look of helpless rage is quite a relief.
Shen Tang ignored these voices.
The woman gingerly accepted the money and caressed her son's cheek reluctantly, as if it was the most precious treasure in the world. Finally, he was determined and prepared to hand over the child. Unexpectedly, Shen Tang raised his hand and declined: "I have things to do now, so I don't have time to do anything. After I finish shopping, I can take your child away when I come back, okay?"
When the woman heard that she could still stay with the child for a while, she was so excited that she cried repeatedly. She knelt on the ground, held the child in her arms and kowtowed to Shen Tang several times. She kept saying: "Okay, okay... Thank you Bodhisattva, thank you Living Bodhisattva..."
Shen Tang led the black-faced man to get up and return to Qi Shan.
Qishan: "Aren't you worried that she will lie to you?"
Shen Tang was immersed in his own world, and it took a while for Qishan's words to be conveyed. She suddenly came back to her senses, pursed her dry lips, and replied: "It can't be a liar... If it is really a liar... Whoever cheats me of money, I will kill him half!"
Qishan: "..."
Zhai Le: "???"
Shouldn’t the point be to deceive feelings?
Qishan felt that Mr. Shen Xiaolang was too soft-hearted, and was about to give an explanation when he heard Shen Tang ask: "Yuanliang, everyone comes naked with tears and howls, and leaves naked with mourning. Since If you are destined to die at birth, what is the meaning of life?”
She asked: "Is living just to endure hardship?"
What is the difference between living in the present and going down to earth to experience calamity?
A tragedy similar to that of a woman can be seen within a few steps.
Is she really in the earthly world right now?
The underworld is no different, right?
Shen Tang's purchase of a corpse that had been suffocated by Guanyin soil for forty coins had long been noticed by interested people, and some people tried to do the same thing to impress this kind-hearted prodigal woman. As a result, Shen Tang never stopped, which was frustrating.
Praying for kindness moved in my heart.
Normally he wouldn't bother to answer such a question.
However, the person who asked the question was the always noisy Shen Xiaolangjun, which gave it a little more special meaning. He said: "I am alive just to leave a trace that belongs exclusively to the person 'Qi Shan'."
Shen Tang asked Zhai Le again: "Where is Xiaofang?"
Zhai Le touched his nose and felt a little embarrassed: "Me? My ideas are a bit big. Don't laugh when I say it. I want to lead my men and assist my brother in pacifying the southeast."
As expected, Shen Tang burst into laughter.
Zhai Le was furious: "I promised not to laugh!"
"I didn't promise not to laugh. Your idea is indeed good, but are you a little timid? Are you satisfied with just one piece of Southeast Asia? You should learn from me how to open up the pattern-"
Zhai Le asked: "How to open up the pattern?"
Shen Tang paused, squinting and thinking.
Made a demonstration——
"For example - I want to bring peace to the world!"
Qishan's hands trembled and he looked at the young man.
Under the sunlight, the young man's black pupils showed a little dark brown. For a moment, he even thought that the young man was not joking.
Zhai Le: "Are you dreaming?"
Shen Tang curled his lips: "Aren't you dreaming too? Since it's all a dream, why not get it right in one step? Don't you think so?"
