The painter did not stand up, but continued to paint the person in front of him.
The painting is a portrait.
The one being painted is a woman.
There is something pretty about women...
There is an indescribable tenderness between the eyebrows.
She either bowed her head and was shy.
Or a smile as bright as a flower.
Or looking at the painter affectionately.
The painter is calm, and the brush in his hand seems to be filled with energy.
Bailong stretched his head, looked at the painter's painting, and then looked at the woman.
He turned back to Chen Luo and said, "The painting looks very similar."
"It's very similar."
There is charm.
There is aura.
Perhaps if she looked more like her, this woman would have walked out of the painting.
"Can you draw?"
Chen Luo said: "I know a little bit."
"Then you can draw for me."
Chen Luo smiled but did not answer.
He...
I generally don’t paint.
Over the years, the Four Arts have become increasingly strange in his hands.
The way of chess is the way of formation.
But calligraphy has become Confucianism.
Follow your words.
The book was written in a storm.
The way of music and the way of painting are also different.
Therefore, Chen Luo doesn't like to use it.
Rather than stunning the world, it's better to be low-key.
I killed the dragon in the past, but I have already stirred up the wind and rain.
This is inconsistent with my own moral principles.
If we can avoid some trouble today, then it would be better to avoid some trouble.
In the conversation between Chen Luo and Xiao Bai.
Painted.
The people around were amazed.
The young lady took the painting lovingly.
Hand over the silver.
The slender jade fingers gently scraped across the painter's palm.
Then he left shyly.
Chen Luo looked at it... and his heart suddenly felt sour.
"Brother Wang is so lucky. Our family has never been treated like that in these years. That girl...is Brother Wang familiar with her?"
Wang Sheng said with a smile: "My father-in-law, please don't laugh at me... you are just asking for some life."
Wang Sheng smiled helplessly.
He turned around and said to the people that he would close the stall today and stop painting.
Then he looked at Chen Luo.
"Father-in-law, can we find a place to talk?"
"good!"
Several people took steps towards a nearby yard...
This courtyard is Wangsheng's courtyard.
environment of grace.
After asking, I found out that this Wang Sheng had been here for a long time, and all he was doing was writing his own book.
"I wonder if this Yanhu City has the story you want?"
"I don't know."
Wang Sheng said: "Stories in the world are rare. If they exist, it's fate. If they don't, it's just luck."
He smiled and suddenly said: "There is a story recently, but there is a lot less information in it. I wonder if my father-in-law can shed some light on it?"
Chen Luo was curious.
"what story?"
"Chen Luo kills the dragon!"
"..."
Seeing Chen Luo looking like he couldn't say a word, Wang Sheng laughed.
"I have never seen my father-in-law look so helpless."
"Yeah?"
Chen Luo asked, "I wonder if that girl's hand is easy to touch today?"
"..."
The two looked at each other.
Suddenly he laughed.
Fellow Taoist Bailong felt bored, stood up, walked out of the yard and went to the street.
She wanted to see Yanhu City.
Look at the people in this city.
Look at this mortal life,
It's just a little bit, but it always feels wrong.
In the past, when I was with Chen Luo, there were stories everywhere and nothing felt new.
I can see people clearly,
I also saw things clearly.
But if he really walked out by himself, everything in front of him became boring.
then.
Look back.
Back to the yard again.
The chat in the courtyard was still going on, but now it was Wang Sheng who was talking.
Chen Luo listened.
The wind picked up.
There are clouds covering it.
There is fog.
Sunny day.
A bolt from the blue.
Immediately, dark clouds gathered and the wind and rain began to sway.
The entire Yanhu City turned dark at this moment.
There were people pacing back and forth outside the courtyard, not daring to enter.
Someone appeared in the sky, turning into black mist and hovering, daring not to fall.
There is a lake in the city.
The water in the lake is rolling...
Something wants to come out, but it doesn't dare to come out.
There is also a wild goose.
It fell on the gate outside the courtyard.
He wanted to come in, but hesitated.
I wanted to knock on the door, but I didn't dare.
It was a waste of time.
Fellow Taoist Bailong stared blankly at the man in front of him, then at the changes around him, and finally at Chen Luo.
She didn't understand.
What, that’s it?
Chen Luo smiled.
"I wanted to hear your story, but it seems that our family is not the only one who wants to hear your story!"
Wang Sheng sighed softly.
"Do you mind, father-in-law?"
"It doesn't matter."
Chen Luo said: "We are destined to meet each other!"
Wang Sheng nodded.
So he said to the outside: "If you want to listen, then come in!"
"Thank you, sir."
"Sorry for bothering you."
"I'll just be quiet."
"Thanks."
There is a voice coming.
Then I saw the huge courtyard, which was suddenly crowded with people...
or a man,
Or a woman.
There are ghosts and evil spirits.
There are monsters.
They come in and salute...
Then he sat quietly aside.
Fellow Taoist Bailong opened his mouth to ask.
Chen Luo whispered: "Listen quietly, everything will become clear in a moment... You and I are very lucky today. We met Brother Wang, which is rare."
Bailong nodded.
If others say it, she doesn't believe it.
But Chen Luo said that she believed it.
Just like Chen Luo said, she quickly understood what was going on.
This man named Wang Sheng is telling a story.
She heard many stories.
But I have never heard such a magical and weird story...
It is different from the stories told by storytellers in inns and restaurants.
His story has penetrated the heart and the Tao.
Flowers appear at your feet.
For the lotus.
There is dead wood and spring comes.
More talents gathered.
There are many stories about him...
one by one……
Then another.
Chen Luo had never heard of these stories.
I was going to tell Chen Luo.
So I chose to talk about something that Chen Luo had never heard before.
There are scholars and female ghosts.
There are demons and humans.
There are also stories about monks.
There are also stories about Taoist priests and nuns.
Among them, Chen Luo also heard a very familiar story. Even fellow Taoist Bailong was a little surprised when he heard it.
"It's the story of Xin Sanniang and Zhang Weizhi!"
Fellow Taoist Bailong whispered: "These stories are all true..."
Chen Luo smiled slightly.
Wang Sheng's story has never been a story...
It is a story that is both tragic and tragic, but it is true in this world.
This story was told late into the night.
I think it's enough.
So Wang Sheng stopped...
"Everyone, it's almost done!"
he said.
then……
The people in the courtyard dispersed as quickly as possible.
But only one person didn't go.
In other words, it shouldn't be one person...
But a demon.
A wild goose turned into a spirit.
Wang Sheng looked at the demon and finally looked at Chen Luo.
"Father...this is your business."
He tells the story.
That's all.
As for everything else.
It's just not something he can understand...
No such ability,
He doesn't have the ability either.
If the sky falls, there will still be tall people holding it up.
I'm just a monster.
There's really nothing you can do to change it.
When the wild goose heard Wang Sheng's words, it turned into a human form.
Wearing official uniform.
The smell of incense is quite strong.
He knelt down.
Kneel down in front of Chen Luo.
kowtow.
"Please, father-in-law, save the little god's life..."
…
He calls him a little god.
The smell of incense is strong.
And it is the body of a wild goose.
Thinking of the monster I saw today at the Yanling True Monarch Temple...
certainly.
It's not right to call him a demon, he should be the city god of Yanhu City.
But even the city god Chen Luo had no intention of telling him to get up.
Entering the city today.
Just passing by, he wanted to seek something for himself.
It’s just that I don’t know the foundation.
So I chose to ignore it.
Tonight, Wang Sheng is telling stories. The Yanhu City God comes again and kneels down here.
This is a bit embarrassing for myself.
If it were the past.
Chen Luo would definitely not pay attention to him.
It's just maybe fate.
Without Wang Sheng's teaching, he would have lost this opportunity.
No chance,
How to kneel in front of yourself?
Thinking of this, Chen Luo said calmly: "If you have something to ask for, then tell me when it was. We are just ordinary people. Can we help you? I dare not say yes!"
Yanling City God hurriedly spoke out.
It's not a private matter.
Between emotion and reason, it is a matter of merit.
There is a mansion in the city.
There is a demon in the house,
Occupied for a long time.
Hurtful.
kill.
Harm people.
True Lord Yan Ling is the City God of Yanhu City, and he has always had the responsibility to protect the residents of the city... but his strength is not as good as that.
I have fought several times over the years, but every time I came back defeated.
Over the years, not only have I not been able to get rid of the evil spirit, but I have also lost a lot of incense.
It happened that Chen Luo came in.
He recognized Chen Luo at a glance.
So I asked Chen Luo for help.
"Our family has never been to Yanhu City, how do you know about our family?"
"This place is not far from Thunder City. My father-in-law slayed the dragon, and everyone in the world knew about it... The city god near Thunder City is the little god's friend. In the past, my father-in-law slayed the dragon, and the little god's friend saw him!"
Chen Luo nodded.
So, it makes sense.
Lord Yan Ling said: "Over the years, experts have occasionally come in, and the little god has also asked for help, but every time they go, there has been no news from those experts.
Little God doesn't have the ability to invite those people from famous families.
The father-in-law is kind-hearted.
Do not fight for the world.
The little god knew that it was inappropriate to ask his father-in-law to take action, but the little god had no other choice.
If the demon is not eliminated for one day.
The more people are afraid of death..."
Chen Luoshang didn't answer.
Then Wang Sheng asked: "That demon, is it the Wang family in the city?"
Yanling City God was stunned.
He nodded quickly: "Sir, do you know?"
Chen Luo also looked at Wang Sheng.
"You know?"
"Some, not many. I came here originally for the story of the Wang family, but later I felt that this story could not be included in that book.
I'm still hesitant, but it's hard to get into trouble and I can't take action..."
"Why?"
"The Wang family has some friendship with someone, so it's not easy to take action."
then.
Wang Sheng then talked about the Wang family and his story.
When I entered Yanhu Lake in the past.
Wang Sheng met a scholar.
For Wang Hao.
talk.
Very happy!
Later became friends.
However, not long after, Wang Hao became seriously ill and lost his three souls and seven souls.
Like a living corpse.
But it was Wang Hao who fell in love with a demon king.
Later, in order to save Wang Hao, the demon sucked the souls of the people in the city, hoping to use the souls of the people to continue his life.
Wang Sheng once wanted to stop him.
But the demon just said a few words and made Wang unable to escape.
"He once regarded you as a sibling. Today, all I want is to save his life. You want to stop me? You are killing him!"
"Somewhat similar to Xin Sanniang!"
Bailong said.
Chen Luo shook his head.
"Maybe it looks like it, maybe it doesn't!"
Xin Sanniang took out all her golden elixirs to save her husband.
It's for true love.
And that demon from the Wang family...
Maybe it's love.
But in order to save Wang Hao, he used the souls of the people in the city as a guide.
Not to save people.
It's just a cover to cover up the fact that he killed someone, sucked their essence and blood, and put away his soul.
"Isn't this right?"
Wang Sheng said.
She loves him...
It should be so.
"There is indeed love in the world, but not all love is pure. Sometimes this love is even heavy and filthy!"
Chen Luo spoke lightly,
"It's okay, just take a look!"
Chen Luo said.
then……
A Yaksha appeared before him.
Yaksha three meters.
Green face and fangs.
"Please come on over!"
Yaksha flew away through the air.
After a short while, a woman was captured...
The woman has a graceful figure.
delicate and charming.
The moment he saw Wang Sheng, he was stunned for a moment, and then started to curse.
They were probably talking about Wang Sheng actually asking someone to arrest her.
As for the city god beside her, she seemed to have ignored him.
Wang Sheng said nothing,
Until the woman got tired of scolding.
Chen Luo then asked: "Are you Xiaorou?"
The woman didn't want to answer.
But for some reason, in front of Chen Luo, this woman answered honestly.
"yes!"
"What enlightenment?"
"Shankui."
"Why kill people and take their souls?"
"Of course it's for cultivation, what? Is it really because of Wang Hao?"
The woman smiles.
As if he remembered something, he looked at Wang Sheng: "Oh, he actually believes it!"
Wang Sheng:......
Silence fell.
The city god also fell silent.
Fellow Taoist Bailong frowned slightly with disgust.
Chen Luo nodded.
"It's true, everything in this world happens for a reason, and there is a cause and effect... The reason for killing people and taking souls is just for cultivation, this reason is established!"
"pity!"
Chen Luo said.
That Yaksha took out the sword in his hand.
The skin on the woman's body was peeled off... The entire skin was peeled off in front of everyone's eyes, revealing the stinky, dirty and muddy body inside.
Disgusting.
It's chilling!
"It's a pity...it's hard to draw people's hearts when it comes to painting people's bones!"
…
True Lord Yan Ling left.
Bow your head and bow.
Salute and withdraw.
Wang Sheng fell into silence...
Went back to the room.
But he didn't come out anymore.
Bai Long said to Chen Luo: "Is this the human heart?"
Chen Luo thought for a moment.
"yes……"
Bai Long said: "Is it true that you can't trust anyone?"
"Not really."
Chen Luo smiled: "Some people are really good at pretending, but in fact it's not difficult to spot them as long as you look carefully."
"I may not."
This is still true.
Fellow Taoist Bailong is good at everything...
It's just that her control over people's hearts is far inferior to that of Cat Lady.
"That's what you have to learn. Fortunately, you can always learn it if you live long."
"That's true."
Bailong looked at the room: "What happened to him?"
"I feel something in my heart... I think I'm going to break through."
"That's great. What about you, are you about to break through?"
Chen Luo smiled.
"How can this breakthrough be so simple? If you say you can break through, then isn't it the same as drinking water?"
he said.
The lounge chairs were moved out.
Lying down.
Within the divine sea, golden light flows from the divine platform's lines.
That Nascent Soul Soul has solidified a bit again.
On this day...
this moment……
Chen fell into the seventh realm of fetal movement.
Chen Luo:......
Bailong:? ? ?
…
Thirty-eight years of service.
Yanhu City.
Spring is everywhere in the city.
Wang Sheng is still in retreat.
Chen Luo got up.
Practice boxing in the courtyard.
The white dragon swallowed it like the sun was refining it in the courtyard.
It was at this time.
The heaven and earth buzzed...a sad and desolate late autumn air appeared in my heart.
Chen Luo looked up.
Looking at Xianyang...
…
PS: August ended, and a total of 310,000 words were updated this month... I tried my best.
