The news that Gu Du was injured was sent to Liu Nian by Ye Wuyou using Liuyun Crane. Looking at the news sent by his apprentice, Liu Nian shook his head in admiration.
"Haoran, take a look, this is your junior brother's handiwork."
Li Haoran took the letter and smiled in surprise after reading it, "Disciple was worried that Junior Brother was beyond his power, but he didn't expect that he could seriously injure Ou Du? But what did Junior Brother say with the help of the great god's Dharma?"
Liu Nian sighed and said, "It should be the god that the Shark Clan believes in. Your junior brother had an old relationship with the current leader of the Shark Clan, so he probably borrowed his strength from her. I originally thought that the way of Kyushu Incense was already shallow, but I didn't want to be in this overseas place." There is actually a legacy.”
"It's also junior brother's destiny." Li Haoran smiled and said, "Can we withdraw the disciples from Shengxian Manor this time?"
Liu Nian shook his head, "Not only can't we withdraw, but we also need to increase the manpower for the search. You may not know the secrets of Liao Du. This Liao is the best at hiding and developing. If you are not careful, it will bring disaster to Kyushu."
"This is when he is at his weakest. If he can't kill him with one blow, the consequences will be unbearable for you and me. The owl is alone in the Sky Demon Realm and eats monsters. If it is in Kyushu and feeds on humans, it will cause three disasters and nine disasters. When they arrive together, they will bring Kyushu with them. This time he was seriously injured, he will inevitably lose his true body and return to his original form, and even his mind will return to the state of a baby. Although he is not strong, he can count the radius and radius just by relying on instinct. The land here turns into a poisonous pool, and it can also live in the human body and live with people."
"If we encounter help from humans who don't know the details again, it will be even more harmful."
"When the time comes, Supervisor Tiansi's magic circle will be ineffective and he will not be able to see or trap him, but he will still have all the magic talents of Qi Du... What will be left to the world will be a catastrophe."
Hearing this, Li Haoran's expression changed slightly, "Why can this owl still coexist with humans?"
"Because this Liao baby is neither good nor evil, tangible and insubstantial. When ordinary people see it, they will not take the initiative to contact it because of their snake instinct. But if a child who does not know the details but has pure Qi comes into contact with it, , due to mutual attraction, the cub's mind becomes the same as that of a child. What the child is like, he will be like."
"But... Oudu is an evil spirit. He is born with special powers. Children's hearts are like blank sheets of paper and are most easily contaminated by them."
"In the end, this kid will not be able to tell whether he is an oto or a human being, and oto is also like this..."
"In other words, in the end, Oudoku can be this child, and the child can also be Oudoku."
Liu Nian sighed and said, "I'm afraid of meeting a little baby with resentment. The power of resentment and evil will add up..."
"When two owls appear alone in Kyushu... the country will not be the country."
...
"Xiao Zi, are you hungry?" Jiang Cailian took two pieces of black and hard dough and handed a large piece to the little purple snake in front of her. Seeing its dull eyes, I thought it couldn't eat it, so I broke it into pieces thoughtfully.
A hint of complexity flashed through the little purple snake's eyes, and then turned dull again.
At this time, a man and a snake were hiding from the rain in a secluded place in the forest. The little girl, who was originally wearing thin clothes, was even more desolate in the cold wind and rain. But even so, there was no trace of despair in Jiang Cailian's eyes.
Holding the jar in her arms, she murmured, "Mother...Mother..." It was as if the rain so far away was no longer so harsh...
The sky cleared up, and Jiang Cailian continued on her way. She heard that there were many wild beasts in the forest, but she didn't see any during her entire journey, which made the little girl worry a lot.
Although he was hungry and his clothes were ragged, he finally saw people.
At the gate of the city, the soldiers guarding the city looked at the little girl in front of them who was as big as her waist. She was dressed in ragged clothes and had a dark face.
"Go, go, you little beggar! You need money to enter the city! Can you take it out?"
Jiang Cailian said stubbornly, "I'm not a beggar!"
"Then do you have money?"
"I..."
The sergeant who was guarding the city shook his head and was about to be driven away when a tall man walked up behind him and threw a few coins to the official who entered the city. "Okay, I will pay these coins. Do you have any children at home? Or do you mean you don't have any now or in the future?" No? Gather some virtue for your children."
The sergeant's face darkened and he was about to be scolded when he was kicked.
The chief officer said respectfully, "Pei Dutou taught me a lesson!"
The guarding soldier's heart skipped a beat and he was timid and silent.
Pei Yunji didn't say much, and walked straight out of the city without even looking at Jiang Cailian.
Jiang Cailian bowed towards him respectfully, and then followed the people into the city.
"My mother said, find a pawn shop... pawn the silver hairpin... in exchange for some travel expenses... then go to the inn and take a boat to the south of the Yangtze River..."
In fact, Lotus Pier is not far away. It only takes half a day to get there by boat. After all, it is also a large sea port in Dazhou.
It's just that now the Great Zhou Dynasty is under attack from the north and south, and the roads for transporting goods are occupied by the army.
Sincerely, the shopkeeper looked at the little girl in front of him, a hint of deep meaning flashed in his eyes. The silver hairpin in his hand was exquisitely made, and the materials used were extremely solid. One silver hairpin was enough for three taels.
It's such a small thing, it's worth five taels
"Little baby, do you want to die or live?" the shopkeeper said pleasantly, "Oh, death means giving me the things, and you can't take them back. Living means money you can take away now, and the things will be waiting for you. You can get the money back when it’s time.”
"Grandpa, I want to be a part of it! This is my mother's relic," Jiang Cailian whispered.
"Okay, if you pawn live, you'll get 80 coins. If you pawn dead, you'll get one tael of silver. Little girl, do you want to think about your choice?" the old shopkeeper said warmly.
Jiang Cailian was silent. After a moment, she held her head high and said firmly, "I still want to live!"
"Okay! A crude silver hairpin! No regrets, little girl, this is 80 yuan, you have to keep it. This is the pawn ticket. You will need to use the ticket to pick up the goods. Don't lose it."
Jiang Cailian took it carefully and put it into her arms solemnly.
"Thank you grandpa"
Watching the dark and ragged little girl walk out of the pawn shop
The shopkeeper sighed to himself, "Hey, poor little guy. Dasheng, go give some steamed buns to the little beggars. Let them touch and tear up the pawn tickets. If you get the money, let them deal with it."
"Okay"
Jiang Cailian was looking for the inn step by step, when suddenly three or five beggars about the same size as herself walked towards her eyes.
He squeezed towards himself without any explanation.
Jiang Cailian hugged the jar and quickly gave in.
But she didn't expect that these people were just coming for her. They surrounded her and laughed for a moment. A little beggar proudly raised the small piece of paper in his hand and walked away. Seeing that their purpose had been achieved, the others decisively let go of Jiang Cailian and ran away laughing. .
Touching her empty pocket, Jiang Cailian hurriedly caught up and "Pawn the tickets back to me!!"
The familiar group of little beggars were walking through the streets. Jiang Cailian followed one of them tightly, pursed her lips, and refused to stop even if she felt weak from hunger.
"That's my mother's relic, give it back to me!"
As she was chasing, a little beggar suddenly tripped her.
Collapse...the sound of breaking porcelain was heard
Jiang Cailian was stunned, and then three or five little beggars swarmed up and snatched away all the belongings from the little girl.
Jiang Cailian showed no resistance
Just murmuring "Mother...Mother..."
