MTL - Back Off, Let Me Come-Chapter 661 : Shaobai【Two in One】
Chapter 661 Chapter 661: Shaobai【Two in One】
I thought that I could pick off the flowers without anyone noticing, but when his fingers were about to touch the petals, the little red flowers moved away with the stick. Shao Chong seemed to have sensed it, and looked up, the owner of the wooden staff was looking at him with downcast eyes, and the two looked at each other.
The boy frowned delicately: "What are you doing?"
Shao Chong looked at the little red flower eagerly. Even though he was caught by the owner after he tried to steal the flower, he was not guilty and raised his eyebrows with a smile: "How much is this flower? How about selling it to me? How much is it?" Brother can afford it, so make a price!"
Chao Lian couldn't help tearing things down: "I can't afford it."
The young man's clear eyes paused for a few breaths on Shao Chong's face, moved away, and turned around, with an expression of not wanting to talk to strangers. He took out a small purse from his sleeve, and checked the price with the vendor in a low voice, looking restrained and shy. Probably because I seldom communicate with people, the whole process is that the vendor calculates how much it will cost, tells the boy the total price, and the boy then counts the money and delivers it.
"You look so poor." Shao Chong still couldn't take his eyes off the little red flower. Seeing that the boy's bill was mostly copper coins, he planned to use money to make the boy let go, "Just sell me this flower, one or two ? Two taels? If not, I’ll give you five taels..."
The teenager ignored it.
Received the packaged items from the vendors, which contained the necessities of life, such as salt blocks, corn, needles and threads, and cloth. This is the first time I have gone out shopping by myself since I grew up, and Fourth Uncle Lin is usually in charge. The teacher told him not to be nervous, he just needs to buy the things recorded on the slip of paper. With the rest of the money, you can buy yourself some candy bars...
"Thank you, does the store know where I can buy sugar?"
The boy was thinking about candy, but he didn't know where to buy it.
Seeing that he is being ignored, don’t rush to increase the price again.
"How about ten taels?"
Chao Lian broke the stage again while cooking: "Brother Thirteen, I don't have Shiliang with you. It's just a little red flower. If you want it, in the spring of next year, brother will take you out of the city to pick as much as you want. , don't disturb others."
The boy still ignored Shao Chong.
I only thought about how many pieces of candy I could buy with the remaining money.
"Hey! Look at me!"
Shao Chong didn't listen to Chao Lian's words, but shot like a thunder, grabbed the boy's left shoulder, swept away the boy's enthusiasm before, his voice became low and dark, and a series of small and strange grunts came out of his throat, like some kind of wild beast growl.
Looking at his eyes again, the pupils flashed an ominous red light.
Chao Lian is too familiar with Shao Chong in this state.
Who cares about eating the last bite of corn porridge?
He threw the pottery bowl, wanting to step forward to stop Shao Chong from going crazy.
"Thirteenth brother, you must calm down, this is not a place for you to go crazy! Big brother needs to know, you are careful to be beaten!"
Chao Lian also had doubts in his heart.
I didn't find the crux of the problem before, I only knew that Thirteenth Brother would go crazy when he saw blood, but after several years of recuperation and restraint, the influence of the Gu worm in Thirteenth Brother's body has gradually diminished, and even his stagnant mind It also begins to increase slowly with age. Except for the night of the full moon, the Gu worms are extraordinarily manic and will force Shao Chong to passively enter a state of madness, which is usually normal.
Less rushing but turning a deaf ear.
The hand pressing on the boy's shoulder kept tightening.
Chao Lian subconsciously held his breath, and didn't dare to disturb him any more, for fear that the stimulation would cause Shao Chong, and the young man's shoulders would be scrapped. Unexpectedly, the young man remained motionless, turned his head to look at Shao Chong: "That flower is not for sale, let go of your hand."
Shao Chong's throat overflowed with a strange smile: "What if not?"
The boy showed a perplexed expression.
said: "But I don't want to kill people."
The young man's calm voice came to Chao Lian's ears clearly, and Chao Lian was very anxious when he heard it. Of course he wasn't worried about his thirteenth brother, he was worried about the boy. The insane Shao Chong is a piece of firecracker that will explode at any time, and the provocation of the young man will add fuel to the fire. There is a high probability that he will be smashed to pieces with his bare hands, and blood will be spilled on the spot.
Junior repeat it again.
"I don't want to kill you." When he said this, there was no trace of murderous intent in the young man's body. His eyes were as clear as a spring, and the warmth between his brows and eyes was like a breeze in the world. "The teacher also said that it is better to do less than to kill. , but disposing of corpses is very troublesome, the teacher hates trouble the most."
The boy said again: "I hate it too."
Chao Lian couldn't help reminding in a low voice.
"Don't provoke Thirteen anymore..."
This kid doesn't know how bad his reputation is? Didn't you see the common people on the street running and hiding when they saw Shao Chong's posture?
Many people have seen Shao Chong's face, and some have seen him murder with their own eyes. That scene once became a lingering nightmare. Even folk women scare children with words like "you cry again, and the red-eyed monster will come to eat you". This young man dressed in a foreign land is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, so he must stroke the tiger's beard?
"Bring it!"
Shao Chong's eyes have been replaced by scarlet, and the voice overflowing from his throat is not like a human voice. Raising his hands into claws, with lightning speed, he grabbed the boy's face. Among the brothers, Shao Chong has the strongest finger power. Even if he doesn't use a bit of martial energy, it is no more difficult for him to smash a stone than a piece of tofu with his bare hands. If caught right by him, the boy's skull could be split in half!
"Thirteen!"
Seeing Shao Chong really make a move, Chao Lian broke his voice in anxiety.
He didn't even have time to draw out his weapon, and was about to stop Shao Chong with his bare hands. Nai He was still a step too slow, the young man turned sideways to avoid the grabbing face at such a short distance, and then bent his elbow to fight back, waving a blue breeze with his right palm, forcing him to retreat and rush forward.
Although it was only a foot away, it was enough for Chao Lian to stare.
This boy...
Looking at his face, he is definitely younger than Shao Chong.
"You run away!"
Now is not the time to be shocked.
Chao Lian grabbed the empty weapon and stabbed Shao Chong with two guns, one left and one right, blocking the way and buying time for the boy to escape. Just because he can push back Shao Chong doesn't mean he can escape Shao Chong's attack. It is against the law of nature to mutilate the innocent and increase the number of killings.
The boy said to Chao Lian, "Thank you."
But did not turn and run away.
"I can spare his life!" With both palms in seals, he held out the wooden staff slanted behind his waist. The mysterious pattern and the Big Dipper of the Seven Stars spread from the feet to all directions. The young man's robe moved automatically without wind, and the little red flower on the top of the wooden staff also swayed from side to side.
Chao Lian: "..."
What kind of power is this?
It is not like Wen Qi, not like Wu Qi, but it can communicate with the Qi of heaven and earth. Intuition told Chao Lian that the boy was safe. The reality also confirmed his guess. The young man didn't greet Shao Chong's head with his wooden stick, but pointed to the ground, and a streak of blue energy pierced the sky like a shooting star, heading straight for Shao Chong's eyebrows. Chao Lian raised his hand to block it, but who knew that the object could pass through his palm.
"Thirteen!" Chao Lian turned his head just in time to see the scene of Qi Jin sinking into the center of Shao Chong's eyebrows, and he strode forward to catch him.
The boy stepped forward holding a wooden staff.
Half squatting, raised his finger and poked Shao Chong's eyebrows.
"There's something in him, he's disobedient."
Chao Lian was shocked.
"Who are you? What did you do to Thirteen?"
"Now I am obedient."
Chao Lian grabbed the boy's wrist to prevent him from leaving.
"Is it obedient? What do you mean by that? You said that the thing inside Thirteen... is obedient? How did you do it?"
"Let it fall asleep, and it will be obedient."
Isn't this kind of thing easy to do?
The young man straightened the little red flower on the crooked side, put the stick back into his waist, and kindly reminded Chao Lian: "Don't let your brother eat bugs indiscriminately. If people eat bugs indiscriminately, bugs will eat people. More than just If the stomach hurts, the brain also hurts. The teacher also said that people who eat bugs and the brain hurts will have a short life and will not live long."
"Do you have a way to get rid of bugs?"
The boy shook his head: "The teacher hasn't taught it yet."
The teacher only taught how to make the bugs sleep.
Chao Lian seemed to have grabbed hold of the driftwood, and hurriedly asked: "Your teacher? Does your teacher know? This is my thirteenth younger brother. As long as he can be cured, he will pay any price. Whatever your teacher wants, as long as it does not violate Daoyi, we brothers will do it for him!"
The boy shook his head again: "I don't know."
Chao Lian found that the boy's reaction was the same as that of Shao Chong back then, it seemed to be the mind of a child. He took a deep breath in secret, tried to calm himself down, and asked in a coaxing tone: "Then do you know where your teacher is? I want to visit."
The teenager refused to inform: "The teacher said that you can't say it."
"Then—" Chao Lian still wanted to ask, but the young man frowned impatiently, got up and wanted to leave, but he hurriedly changed his words, "Can Xiao Lang help to ask Master?"
"Why? He wants to steal my flowers, he's a bad guy."
Chao Lian made a strange mistake and said: "Xiao Lang will help you with this, and ask Shisan to buy a lot of candy to apologize to Xiao Lang later, how about it?"
The young man struggled, as if weighing whether it was worth it or not.
In the end, I fell under the temptation of sugar.
"Okay, I'll come back to you when I have a reply."
Chao Lian was overjoyed, and was about to coax the young man to meet him somewhere, and then followed the clues to find the young teacher, who knew that his right hand was empty in the next instant. He raised his head again, and a fallen leaf fell leisurely from mid-air on the boy's position, how could he be there?
Gu Ren learned of this and immediately closed the city to find someone.
The boy who made the noise appeared at a roadside tea shop outside the city with his things in his arms. In the corner, a man dressed as a commoner lowered his bamboo hat and quietly sipped tea. The boy called him: "Uncle Lin."
"Bought?"
The man called "Uncle Lin" raised his head.
asked again: "Did you fight with someone?"
"He robbed me..."
Uncle Lin asked: "You didn't kill anyone, did you?"
The boy shook his head: "I didn't kill it, let the bug sleep."
Uncle Lin didn't ask what "letting bugs sleep" was. Anyway, after the boy's usual practice, he likes to squat in the corner and toss toads, centipedes, scorpions, ants and the like. Playing with bugs is quite normal for a young mind.
"Have you bought everything?"
The young man nodded apprehensively: "Well..."
The fingers unnaturally want to cover up something.
Fourth Uncle Lin checked and confirmed that it was correct, got up and paid for the tea, and said, "Let's go, your teacher is still waiting for you."
Halfway there, remind me in a low voice.
"Don't look at you as a teenager, but you are still grinding your teeth. Eat less sugar. If you are caught by your teacher, don't implicate me in suffering."
The boy let out a cry.
Actively admit mistakes and refuse to correct after repeated admonitions.
The young man's teacher is an old man with white beard and hair. He has aged very fast in the past few years, and a wave of stagnation is flowing from the inside to the outside. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that his life is not long.
Seeing the young man and Uncle Lin come back, his face like dead wood came alive. The three of them had a brief meal, and the old man said: "Everything is ready, let's continue going south..."
Uncle Lin: "Leaving again?"
This seclusion is like a war, hiding in Tibet, but he didn't see anyone chasing him, and he didn't understand why the old man was moving around like crazy.
The old man said: "Well, for Shaobai's practice."
The young man was stunned for a while before he realized that it was himself who Shaobai called out, and said distressedly: "Teacher, I am A Yan."
He doesn't like the strange name Shaobai.
Uncle Lin just wanted to roll his eyes.
"Where does he stay to practice differently?"
The old man said: "Of course it's different. The countries in the Northwest are busy fighting wars, so they have no intention of organizing selections. Even if there are, foreign scholars are refused to participate. Shaobai needs to go to the holy land of mountains and seas. At that time, my old bones will be completely relieved. "
Uncle Lin didn't say anything after hearing the words.
But the young man was restless: "Teacher..."
"What is it?"
"Does the teacher know **** bugs?"
"Bugs?"
"Today I met a man with worms in his head, and his brother promised that if I help them kill the worms, then, just..."
The last words are slurred.
The old man understood instantly, and said with a sneer, "It's not a pity to die for a person who abuses you. As a teacher, you know the way, but you can't do it. You can do it, but your strength is not enough. Of course, if that person's life is big enough, it will drag you down until your strength is enough." also…"
"Well, Ah Yan knows."
"Also, less white, less sugar."
The young man covered his mouth with both hands: "A Yan didn't eat!"
The old man pointed to the candy-sticking tooth in the boy's bowl with his chopsticks, and said, "You have lost all your teeth, why are you still stubborn?"
Youth: "..."
Those eyes, like those painted in landscape ink, were stained with mist.
What fell out was a front tooth
A few days later.
Gu Ren and his brothers dug three feet but did not find the boy, as if there was no such person in the world, even Chao Lian couldn't help wondering if he had made a mistake. On this day, he returned empty-handed again. Chao Lian was very anxious, but saw a familiar face.
He was overjoyed and stepped forward to stop the person.
"Xiao Lang can make me feel good..." After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Chao Lian almost coughed and said in surprise, "Gong Xiqiu, why are you—"
"Oh, it's you, Gu Ziyi's younger brother, what's the matter?" This person is Gong Xiqiu who left from Xiaocheng. Gong Xiqiu greeted him plainly, as if he wasn't the one who almost killed Shao Chong back then.
He reacted frankly, but Chao Lian was dumbfounded.
"you…"
Gong Xiqiu said: "I'm passing by."
A few days ago, the family pattern on the shoulder blade became inexplicably hot.
He ran all the way in the direction indicated by the clan pattern.
As a result, there was no movement halfway.
Chao Lian hesitated and asked: "Then... have you ever seen a boy who looks five points like you? His outfit..."
As he spoke, he paused.
His eyes were completely glued to the lines on Gong Xichou's collar.
This pattern is similar to the style of teenagers.
Obviously come from the same source.
Gong Xiqiu was impatient. Seeing that Chao Lian hadn't said anything, he planned to pay the money and leave, but Chao Lian grabbed his arm. Gong Xiqiu sneered and threatened: "You don't want this hand anymore?"
"That man is very similar to you." Fearing that Gong Xichou would not believe it, Chao Lian took out the lines he drew from his memory from his bosom, and almost patted Gong Xichou on the face, "Have you seen it?"
_(:з」∠)_
Let Ah Yan come out to breathe and continue diving.
