"ah!!!!"
Under the bright moon in the bustling Yingze City, a heart-rending scream came from a quiet place.
Dong Qingqiu lay on the ground breathing heavily, sweat soaking his hair and seeping into his body.
He squeezed his broken left leg tightly with both hands, feeling extremely painful.
The pain of broken bones caused the young man to faint and fall to the ground several times. Finally, with Zhang Ge's permission, he was able to use the ancestral bones to heal his wounds.
Dong Qingqiu used the cut bones to gently wipe the broken bones and injured areas.
Under the miraculous effect of the ancestral bone cutting, the broken bone healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Dong Qingqiu wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands, knelt on the ground, raised the ancestral bones with respectful hands, and presented them in front of Zhang Ke.
"Dog, thank you for the bone."
Dong Qingqiu lowered his head and spoke calmly. His eyes were bright but filled with murderous intent, and his teeth were tightly closed.
"Dog? Are you telling the truth? Master, why do I feel like you have changed? Do you think so?"
Zhang Ge looked at Dong Qingqiu, who was trembling all over, and smiled secretly.
Dong Qingqiu's body trembled, and then his whole body began to tremble violently: "The dog is wholeheartedly grateful to the master, and does not dare to have the slightest thought of going beyond the limit. I hope the master will be merciful." After saying this, he kowtowed in a muffled voice until a pool of blood appeared on the ground.
Seeing his extremely humble appearance, Zhang Li was very happy and at the same time, he felt a little vigilance. "Get up and be smart outside the door tonight." After saying that, Zhang Li snorted coldly and threw down his sleeves. Leaving with rickets.
"Wish you all the best, sir~"
Dong Qingqiu raised his voice and deliberately slowed down his pace. His whole body's aura suddenly changed, like a poisonous snake, hiding in the dark and spitting out messages, waiting for the opportunity to take action.
The next day, the streets slowly became crowded.
Dong Qingqiu took the wash water sent by Xiao'er and knocked on Zhang Li's room.
"Master, it's time to get up and wash up."
Pushing open the last luxurious room on the second floor, he walked gently into the house.
Zhang Li slapped Dong Qingqiu in the face and asked sternly: "Bitch, who allowed you to come in?"
Dong Qingqiu licked away the blood that flowed from the corner of his mouth, and said with an attentive look: "Don't you miss me, dog? I hope you will be punished by me."
"Damn you, do you think you are a beautiful young girl? Bah! You are dirtying my eyes."
With a bang, the wooden basin in his hand was kicked to the ground.
Zhang Ge slammed his foot on Dong Qingqiu's head, half of his face stuck on the water-covered wooden board.
"How can a wild dog enter a room where someone lives?" Then he kicked the person and the basin over and flew to the door.
He took Dong Qingqiu's broken ancestral bone hanging from his waist, carefully put it in his arms, laughed and walked out of the room, spitting thick phlegm on the ground.
Dong Qingqiu eagerly climbed over and wiped it off with his sleeves. With Zhang Li's hoarse laugh, he watched him go downstairs.
Dong Qingqiu ignored the nosebleed and wiped it away with his hand, laughing maniacally: "Zhang Ge, I am getting more and more excited."
He combed his hair back with his hands, stood up straight, and came to the corridor with sinister eyes and clasped his hands: "Without saliva and eye rolls, there will be no success."
He punched the railing hard, smiled contemptuously, put one hand behind his back, and slowly walked downstairs with a complicated look on his face.
A bustling street is crowded with people, and there is an endless buzz of people.
On a neat and clean street, there is an endless stream of pedestrians, shoulder to shoulder, and shouts one after another.
Several young people were standing on the bank of the river. Some were commenting on the scenery here with their friends; some were playing with each other and knocking each other to the ground, showing their strength; and a few pretended to reach out and fiddle with the weeping willows on the bank. He was chanting related verses, but his eyes were looking honestly at the two women on the other side with red faces and quick steps.
The woman in emerald green clothes looked towards the other side from time to time, which made the young man on the other side even more elated, and his actions and shouts became more active.
On the other side of the street, there was a decent-sized inn. Pedestrians were coming in and out, and the shopkeeper was sweating profusely and saying hello in a hoarse voice.
The store is gradually filling up. The river workers who were resting simply sat at the door, holding dry food and eating by themselves, without paying any attention to the urging of the waiters at the door.
As the shadow of the flagpole in front of the store changes, the whole street gradually becomes lively.
The shop assistant who was waiting for customers at the door was suddenly attracted by the bold laughter of a big man and looked into the store.
"It's from the shopkeeper! A pot of peach blossoms will make you drunk, and a pot of peach blossoms will pour in the wind."
The big man slapped the table and shouted towards the counter, making a burst of bold excitement.
"Hey! Jiu Mengzi only drinks wine and doesn't eat vegetables?"
This statement caused everyone to burst into laughter. The sturdy man who had been so arrogant just now was just scratching his head playfully, and said in a slightly embarrassed voice: "My family doesn't let me drink. But it's a man's business and a woman's business." Don’t worry, wait until I drink! Let him know how powerful I am.”
After the man said this, another burst of laughter arose.
The shopkeeper just smiled and shook his head, continued to write down the account with a brush, and waved his hand to the waiter to serve the stout man wine.
"Zhang Laoliu, you can be considered a man, why do you still drink to dare to be tough with your own mother-in-law?" The short man who just made fun of men picked up Zhang Laoliu's wine and poured it down, and continued: " Look at me, does my guy dare to fart?"
"Go, go, fuck your mother, I'm disgusted when I see you, look at your sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. Your monkey cubs are as hungry as dogs, and you, an old man, still have the nerve to talk nonsense here." Then. He took the wine from the other person's hand and drank heavily.
A sigh from the bottom of his heart can bring out the greed in the opponent's stomach.
While pouting, he shook his head intoxicatedly, shook the wine bottle, and deliberately made a sound: "Yeah! Good wine!"
Zhang Laoliu pouted and deliberately teased the other party. This made Zhao Shantian so greedy that he could not stop drooling.
Zhao Shantian pursed his lips, sat next to Zhang Laoliu with a smile, and said flatteringly: "Look, you are still angry after just saying a few words. How can a big man have the same belly as a little girl? He can't even drink a sip of your wine." "Hurry up and let me take a sip, I'll be so greedy for it. After I drink it, I can tell you a secret, a big secret." He stretched out his hands and gestured, not forgetting to pat his exposed belly, which was as thin as dry wood.
Zhang Laoliu looked at Zhao Shantian who was holding the wine in his hand, his eyes rolling, his lips pursed, impatient. Still closing his eyes and saying nothing, he slowly tasted the wine in his hand for the first time.
If this had happened before, how could Zhang Laoliu have been so elegant? He just drank heavily.
Zhao Shantian looked at the less and less wine in Zhang Laoliu's cup and became anxious: "Hey, don't you really don't believe it! The nephew in my Yamen said it himself, Mr. Gu who moved to us a few years ago Dead." Zhao Shantian patted his chest and gave a thumbs up to ensure that what he said was true.
Zhao Shantian said something through the loudspeaker, and the entire inn instantly fell silent, waiting for the next step.
Seeing that they couldn't wait for the next step, some impatient people shouted directly to Zhao Shantian: "Zhao Shantian, you can talk the fuck, but if you can't, just get out. Isn't it just a sip of wine? If everyone is as appetizing as you , everything that smells good has turned into something smelly.”
"That's right." Many people echoed.
Zhao Shantian sighed upon seeing this, shook his head, sat down on his own, took the wine beside Zhang Laoliu, poured himself a glass, and took a satisfied sip of the fresh peach blossom drunk to whet his appetite. Then he slowly said: "Good wine, fragrant!"
"Zhao Shantian, go to hell." Everyone yelled dissatisfied.
"Hey, why are you anxious? The emperor is not anxious and the eunuch is." Zhao Shantian stood up and said.
"Okay, okay, you've drank the wine too, so hurry up and say it." Zhang Laoliu, who was sitting next to him, took a sip of wine impatiently: "Ah! It smells so damn good!"
Zhao Shantian then said with a smile: "Oh, that's so miserable~~"
Everyone's eyes were wide open and their breathing was in unison. The river worker who came to rest at the door also put down the dry food in his hand and listened to the commotion in the store.
Zhao Shantian saw that the atmosphere was almost over, so he stopped trying to sell things off, and sighed: "Alas! Actually, it's not that I don't want to say it? The main reason is that Mr. Gu's family died tragically. All the servants in the mansion died, Especially that Liu Er, who had a big hole in his chest, how miserable! And that family, the wife was missing, only a pile of clothes. Mr. Gu had no head, and the only child looked like a dried duck. That’s so miserable!”
Zhao Shantian spoke vividly, not forgetting to stand up and show signs to everyone.
With one person's efforts, the atmosphere in the store was pushed to a climax.
After everyone heard this, they all sighed and felt sorry for Gu Beidou, whom they had not met for a few times.
At this moment, someone suddenly asked: "Are all Mr. Gu's family dead?"
After hearing this, Zhao Shantian said dissatisfiedly: "You didn't listen to what I said at first glance, maybe you were frightened out of your courage, right? Hahaha, everyone who is not dead is dead, no one is alive."
Zhao Shantian, who was already drunk, spoke unabashedly and continued to talk in an embellished manner. Everyone's hearts continued to be affected by Zhao Shantian, and they all forgot what they were here to do.
The old shopkeeper who came to keep records carefully also stopped writing.
The man who just asked the question patted his companion and left quietly.
In a corner of the inn, there was an old man who was not very noticeable, his hands were greasy, and his gray beard was stained with wine.
Still minding his own business, he stretched out his hands to grab the meat and ate it, occasionally listening to the sounds on the side.
"Ordinary people, this is extremely ridiculous." The old man picked up his chopsticks, picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth. Then he drank another gulp of wine and continued to listen.
Dong Qingqiu was pushed around in the crowd, staggering, and was knocked to the ground several times, or bumped into other people's butts, and he came here with the flow of people.
Dong Qingqiu finally squeezed out of the crowd, but as soon as he stood firm, he was knocked to the ground by two people who came out of the store in a hurry.
Dong Qingqiu, whose anger had reached a certain point, got up and was about to scold the two of them, but found that the two of them had already disappeared without a trace.
In the end, I had no choice but to eat Coptis chinensis and became angry.
Then I looked up and saw the couplet at the door of the inn, which read: Drunken life and dreaming, now, hazy and hazy. There is no horizontal batch.
Just as Dong Qingqiu was about to go in, he was suddenly stopped by a hurried voice.
"Hey, hey, where did the beggar come from? You didn't even look at the place when you asked for food, hurry up!" When the shop assistant saw the young man with a big circle of flies around him entering the store, he hurried to the door and urged: "It stinks. Get out of here quickly, don’t disturb the guests inside eating.”
The shop assistant outside the door shouted, and the river workers all looked at the short man in front of them...? The child, whose thigh was about the same size as his own, couldn't help but laugh.
Dong Qingqiu just raised his head and glanced sideways, quickly ignoring the naked and snobbish guys.
Just a bunch of mayflies that live and die.
"I'm sorry! Thank you for your hard work. I am an eyesore to you, so I'm really sorry." Dong Qingqiu continued with an apologetic look on his face: "Look at the stench all over my body, it makes you feel like you've eaten shit, I'm really sorry."
The guy who was still feeling guilty suddenly reacted. The river worker lowered his head in shame and looked at the man who was yelling at him with a blank look on his face.
"Oh! How dare you talk to me like this?" The store clerk slapped Dong Qingqiu on the face, and then kicked him out: "Be careful when you reincarnate in the next life, and stop begging for food."
Dong Qingqiu, who was kicked out, felt that he hit something. Before he could react, a pain hit his arm.
"Ah! Damn that bitch, how dare you bite me!"
"Woof woof woof...!!!"
A wild dog stretched out its front legs, lowered its front body, turned its butt up to the sky, and barked wildly.
His hind legs suddenly exerted force, and he rushed forward, biting Dong Qingqiu's arm, and spitting saliva everywhere.
Dong Qingqiu punched the wild dog on the head that bit his arm, and looked at the wild dog on the roadside who was still grinning at him and about to attack.
Dong Qingqiu took advantage of the moment it pounced on him, dodged half way, and strangled his neck.
Looking at the wild dog that was still resisting desperately in his arms, he simply broke his neck, then picked up his neck and wiped the dog shit on his butt.
"Everyone, please make the decision for me, but it bit me first. I wanted to teach you a lesson, but unexpectedly it killed me. That's why I had no choice but to take its life." Dong Qingqiu picked up the tongue that was leaking out. Wild Dog, explained to the onlookers.
But the store clerk said: "Based on this dog's age, he is your father."
The store clerk's words aroused laughter from passers-by on the street.
Dong Qingqiu had a bulging vein on his forehead. He picked up the dead dog with one hand and dangled it in front of the store clerk. His face was gloomy, but his tone was calm: "Did you see it? The dead dog?"
"Hahaha"
Pedestrians on the street burst into laughter again.
"Hey! Damn you..." The store clerk angrily put the towel on his shoulders, rolled up his cuffs, and was about to step forward to teach this ignorant little beggar a lesson when he was suddenly pulled back.
In front of him was an old man who was richly dressed but very slovenly. The shop clerk felt that he was being stared at by the old man and his whole body was cold: "Hey! Sir, I'm disturbing your enjoyment! I'll get rid of this eyesore right now." The shop clerk lowered his head. He bowed and smiled apologetically, for fear of making this master angry. Then he had to step forward and drive that damn little beggar away.
After hearing what the store clerk said, Zhang Li burst out laughing from the bottom of his heart, which attracted cold looks and contempt from everyone in the store. However, when they saw the clothes he was wearing, everyone lowered their heads and shut up.
"Hahahahahaha! No need. This is just a dog I raised at home, and it made me laugh. Why don't the dog roll over and kneel down to apologize to this little brother?"
Dong Qingqiu had a dead expression on his face when he heard this, and looked at Zhang Ge motionlessly. He didn't know what he was thinking. Then he stared at the shop assistant beside him.
Seeing that his words fell on deaf ears, he used the power of Jiezugu to slap Dong Qingqiu in the face, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground.
The shop assistant hurriedly said: "Ouch! It turns out it's someone from the master's family. They really blinded me. It's because I looked down on others and didn't realize how high the sky is."
Seeing the old man knocking the little beggar to the ground with a slap from the air, he realized that the sloppy rich old man standing in front of him was clearly a carefree Taoist immortal.
I heard that those gods are moody beings. In order to survive, the man slapped his face hard, not daring to weaken at all, but he couldn't feel the pain.
Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the store clerk, and his back was wet. He couldn't help but feel trembling in his heart: These Taoist immortals really don't treat us as human beings, but treat us like dogs. But having said that, even though you are raising a human as a dog, you are still a Taoist Immortal’s dog! I don’t know how much better it is to be in this world than to be a human being? But he beat the Taoist Immortal's dog! It’s over! When beating a dog, it depends on the owner. Here I beat Dao Ye’s dog...
Thinking of this, the store clerk didn't dare to think any further, and the sweat on his forehead had wet his scalp, and he felt out of breath.
The shopkeeper thought to himself: Is this an immortal? Kill someone without doing anything?
"Hey, I was joking, it's just a dog." Zhang Ge broke the silence and said with a smile: "The dog can't come over yet?"
"Um?"
Zhang Li's cold eyes looked at the young man like a poisonous scorpion, but he frightened the shop assistant beside him to the point where he knelt down and cried bitterly, bleeding from his forehead.
"Master Tao, have mercy on me, Master Tao, have mercy on me!"
Seeing the guy kneeling down to him, Zhang Li looked happy. But when he heard the other party calling him Taoist, his heart sank again, his expression darkened, and he said weakly: "Dog, deal with it cleanly." Then, he took out the ancestral bones from his arms and threw them to the young man. He seemed to want to As if collapsed, he slowly left while holding on to the wall.
When leaving, I looked back and saw the man who was still kneeling there, crying and kowtowing, and left without looking back with a dull expression on his face.
The shop clerk followed the line of sight in front of him, suddenly started with fright, and fell backward.
The movement at the door also attracted the attention of people in the store.
Dong Qingqiu squatted in front of the store clerk, waved the ancestral bone gently, clapped his palms, and patted the store clerk on the shoulder with a serious look: "In the next life, be sure to be reborn."
Before the store clerk could react, an indescribable feeling disappeared instantly.
Debris from the exploded head flew around.
In an instant, a piercing scream could no longer be suppressed and burst out.
"Ah! Killed..."
Outside the street, chaos instantly broke out inside the inn. Some people took advantage of the chaos and ran out of the inn. There were many grains at the door.
Dong Qingqiu wiped the blood on Jiezu's bones with the corner of his clothes as if nothing had happened, turning a deaf ear to the chaotic crowd.
There is a feeling of being ethereal and standing out from the crowd.
Seeing the short boy killing someone, no one in the inn dared to go out and stop him.
Zhao Shantian, who had been bragging just now that he would bring the murderer to justice, was now huddled in a corner like everyone else, indifferent, waiting for the butcher's knife like a lamb to be slaughtered.
Dong Qingqiu glanced at the timid people in the inn and the scattered people on the street, who were extremely sad.
Humans are really magical animals. They like to be lively, but they always act like they have nothing to do with themselves.
When you meet someone who is superior, someone who just a moment ago was preaching equality, in the blink of an eye, they show their servility in their bones, holding the other person's smelly feet, kneeling and licking them.
Dong Qingqiu looked at those timid people, smiled lightly, and walked in the direction where Zhang Li left.
It wasn't until Dong Qingqiu's figure disappeared that a circle of people formed around the door of the inn. Only then did the people in the store dare to slowly walk out to see the arrogant guy.
At this time, the people who had just pretended not to see them suddenly gathered around and started talking in a few words: "Damn it, how dare you kill someone! If it weren't for me..."
Before the other party could finish speaking, he was interrupted by others: "Okay, just brag. Why didn't you come forward just now? I only thought about filial piety after my mother died."
Seeing that the two were about to fight again, the people on the side quickly stopped them.
"Okay, okay, report it to the police quickly, don't let the murderer escape." said an old man.
After hearing this, the shopkeeper just shook his head, sighed and said, "Didn't you see? That kid smashed Mrs. Zhou's head with one punch, does that mean he's not an ordinary person? The government doesn't dare to take care of it, even if it's someone else. Even if the emperor comes, it won't work. Only the emperors of those big dynasties can do it. We, the people of weak countries, don't think about it."
Hearing what the shopkeeper said, some young people were unhappy: "Isn't he just a child? Some people really become less useful the longer they live."
Some people also answered and said: "That's right, shopkeeper, you just let others' arrogance destroy your own prestige. Why don't the government dare to take care of it, not even His Majesty the Emperor?"
The shopkeeper sneered: "Just because he is a Taoist immortal."
"What? Uncle Liang, are you kidding me? That kid is no bigger than a palm, but he is actually the legendary Taoist Immortal?"
The few people who were clamoring just now fell silent like eggplants beaten by frost when they heard that it was Taoist Immortal.
"Don't you know that Taoist immortals can rejuvenate themselves? Maybe the children in your eyes are just old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years."
"Okay, okay, let's all disperse. We ordinary people can't afford to offend those Taoist immortals. Alas! I just pity the poor old lady in Mrs. Zhou's family. Now that her son is gone, I don't know if she can survive this winter. .”
Everyone felt a little sorry for Mrs. Zhou, but none of them dared to speak out.
Finally, when the officials came, they explained the situation and nothing more happened.
Shopkeeper Liang felt a lot of pain in his body, and his busy day's work was in vain.
Seeing that there was no excitement to join in, everyone left like birds and beasts.
Dong Qingqiu found Zhang Li in front of a vendor's stall.
Zhang Ge saw Dong Qingqiu coming and waved with a smile, signaling the young man to come over.
"Come on, Xiao Qiuzi, let's see if this suit fits you."
Seeing Zhang Ge changing from his normal state, Dong Qingqiu froze on the spot, not daring to go over. He didn't know what kind of medicine he bought in the gourd?
Seeing that Dong Qingqiu was unwilling to come over, he disobeyed himself. For the first time, Zhang Ge did not beat or scold him, but took out a piece of silver from his arms and handed it to the merchant: "Wrap up this gray suit and that pair of shoes."
When the merchant saw this, he looked embarrassed: "Master, even if you buy me this money, I can't give you any change!"
"No need to look for it, just bring out your best clothes and shoes."
"Come on!"
The merchant wrapped up the best clothes, and Zhang Ge just smiled and said nothing.
After taking the packed clothes, Zhang Ge took Dong Qingqiu to the forest outside the city and stopped in front of a small river.
He handed the clothes to Dong Qingqiu with a smile.
Dong Qingqiu was confused by Zhang Er's outrageous behavior.
Conscience discovery? Or do you have other plans?
"Try it on quickly, does it fit you?"
Looking at Zhang Ge with a warm and kind face, Dong Qingqiu thought quickly in his heart, trying to figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd?
"Xiao Qiuzi, has the master treated you well over the years?"
When Zhang Ke asked this question, Dong Qingqiu was obviously taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Of course the master has been kind to the dog. The dog is not reduced to a slave, but can still have an identity as a human being. The dog is already grateful. So no How dare you ask for anything?"
"Really?" Zhang Ge squinted at the young man who was holding the clothes and was lost in thought.
Dong Qingqiu cursed in his heart: Don’t you know if it’s true or false?
Dong Qingqiu knelt down in panic, ignoring the clothes that fell on the ground, and said hurriedly: "If the dog tells a lie, his body will be exposed in the wilderness and be torn apart by wild dogs."
Seeing that Zhang Li still had no reaction, Dong Qingqiu could only grit his teeth and said: "If the dog tells a lie, he will be struck by lightning, burned by fire, and die without a complete body."
However, Zhang Li still had a sad look on his face and said earnestly: "Xiao Qiuzi, don't blame me for being harsh on you these years. Master is afraid that time is running out, and those people still don't want to let me go. That person just now is their spy." .Ah! Do you know?"
Dong Qingqiu frowned and looked at Zhang Ge, who was suddenly unconscious. He was too wary to let himself have any flaws.
"Master Hongfu, heaven and man have their own blessings."
Zhang Li just smiled bitterly and said: "Master, I'm afraid I won't be able to reach Hongye Village, and I can't let you go back to your hometown again." After saying that, a drop of tears flowed from the corner of his old eyes.
"Don't worry, Master, the dog will definitely help you find the fairy grass and refine the elixir. The dog will follow the master for the rest of his life." Dong Qingqiu sneered in his heart: "Zhang Ge, if I didn't know everything, Maybe I was really deceived by you. The ancestral bone is mine."
"A lifetime? Human life is so short! Why can those high-ranking Taoist immortals live for hundreds or thousands of years? Why can they decide the life and death of others at will? Why can they imprison people for decades?"
Dong Qingqiu was confused as he heard very little about Zhang Li's experience in his previous life.
All I know is that he escaped from a very powerful place and was being hunted for stealing the ancestor's bones.
As for where this ancestral bone was stolen, I am afraid only Zhang Ge knows.
"The pain I have suffered, one day the dog will beg for it for me."
Zhang Ge was filled with tears. He looked at Dong Qingqiu who was kneeling down and couldn't get up. He stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from the corner of his eyes and revealed an imperceptible smile.
Zhang Ke asked Dong Qingqiu to help him up: "Go and try it on, dog. Does the clothes I bought you fit? Tomorrow we will leave this place of right and wrong and go to Shiwanda Mountain."
"Dog, obey!"
Dong Qingqiu looked calm after hearing this. No matter where he goes, as long as he lets Zhang Ge know that there is a way to become an immortal and extend his life in the north, I won't be afraid that you won't go.
Zhang Li suddenly said: "Stop pretending, I know who you are."
Dong Qingqiu's heart trembled, and he was about to take action, but he remembered that Jiezu Bone was still in his hand, and he immediately realized it and sneered in his heart: Zhang Ge, I almost got into trouble with you.
"Ah?" Dong Qingqiu raised his head and looked at Zhang Li in front of him in confusion.
Zhang Ge just said calmly: "It's okay."
