Chapter 90
For some reason, Chu Danfeng instinctively disliked this one-armed young man. After hearing this, he felt even more uncomfortable and couldn't help but retort at him: "Didn't you let the dog bite others first? Why call others monsters instead?"
The one-armed young man recalled with lingering fear: "You don't know, that kid was a monster back then. The way he bit people... really looked like a beast."
"He is a demon hybrid! But speaking of which, his mother was a demon beauty. She lived in the village for a while, but her husband didn't want her. Then she died..."
Chu Danfeng: "!!!"
The beauty of the demon clan was abandoned by her husband, but she was still in a small village not far from the demon world... How could it be such a coincidence? Isn't it Ji Hongling and Li Jing!?
So, that "little monster" is indeed Hua Tingxuan!
Chu Danfeng had read the original work and naturally knew Hua Tingxuan's life experience. Originally it was just a paragraph about "he was lonely and helpless as a child and was often bullied by the evil boys in the village". Now he heard the one-armed young man retelling the story of that year in such an understatement.
He committed evil deeds and had no intention of repenting. The thin words seemed to materialize into a sharp embroidery needle, which made Chu Danfeng's heart throb with pain.
The one-armed young man paused for a moment when he said this, winked at Chu Danfeng with a "do you understand?" look, and then said: "Demon mixed blood, nine out of ten are physically disabled, and the remaining one is mentally ill.
, he is the one with a sick mind, a little lunatic, no, a mad dog! As long as you offend him, you will definitely pay him back a thousand times, and he will be crazy regardless of the consequences."
Hua Tingxuan secretly clenched his fists, and the veins on the backs of his hands had already popped out. It was not because he was angry that this person insulted him as a mad dog, but... he was afraid that Chu Danfeng would guess that the "little mad dog" who would definitely retaliate was him.
In this life, he had pretended to be obedient and tolerant for many years before he finally got what he wanted. He coaxed his junior brother to nod. He knew that Dan Feng liked a well-behaved and sensible junior brother. If he let him know his true face...
‘I’m afraid it will scare him away.’ Hua Tingxuan thought to himself mockingly.
But Chu Danfeng said coldly: "Did you always bully him like that back then?"
One-armed young man: "Huh?"
Chu Danfeng: "Besides setting dogs to bite him, what else have you done?"
The one-armed young man hummed: "There are so many tricks. A group of us hit him with stones, snatched his food, and peed in his rice bowl... We are not bullying the children. What did you monks say?"
Bastards, everyone gets them and kills them, right?"
Before the last word "yes" could be uttered, the one-armed young man fell down flat on his face.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Danfeng stomped on his back, crushed him again, and then said "Oops" and apologized insincerely: "Why did you fall suddenly? I didn't see you. You're right."
Can’t stop!”
Chu Danfeng used some internal force when he stepped on people. The one-armed young man was almost vomited blood after being stepped on. After he got up, he covered his heart and with a pale face, he hid far away from Chu Danfeng and ran to the front to lead the way.
"..." Chu Danfeng touched his nose and muttered softly, "Why are you running so fast? I can't eat him."
Hua Tingxuan really couldn't hold back her smile this time.
My little senior brother is really not suitable for acting. With such a blunt performance, a fool can't understand what's going on. The one-armed young man was obviously frightened. Although he somehow offended the two "ghost cultivators", he is not a mortal.
He dared to fight against the monks, but he didn't say a word the rest of the way, just pretending to be a gourd.
Chu Danfeng couldn't pretend to be "White Lotus", so he stopped pretending at all. He cleared his throat and whispered: "Xuan'er, I have something to tell you."
Hua Tingxuan immediately made a gesture of listening attentively.
Chu Danfeng: "Do you know why I taught him a lesson?"
Hua Tingxuan had a habit of pretending to be good, and gave a very standard answer: "He bullies the weak." His junior brother taught him since he was a child to be friendly and respectful. Dan Feng has always been upright and upright, unlike him, who is dark and surly at heart.
After a brief silence, Chu Danfeng said something shocking: "Because I know that child is you."
Hua Tingxuan: "!!!"
Chu Danfeng didn't even raise his head: "I already knew that your mother was a demon, because..."
Over the past few days, Chu Danfeng has also been slowly building up his psychology, trying hard to forget that Hua Tingxuan was his son, trying to see him as a man and a Taoist companion.
And Taoist couples have to live a lifetime, so naturally they can't deceive.
However, he spent half a day "because" and couldn't say anything, as if there was some kind of force stopping him.
Chu Danfeng worked hard for a while and finally gave up.
He had reason to suspect that it was the power of the system. Although he was now untied from the system, he still couldn't say anything about "book crossing" or "plot". This was probably some kind of sophisticated and mysterious "confidentiality".
in principle".
Seeing his troubled expression, Hua Tingxuan reminded him empathetically: "Did Master tell you?" It was Meng Cangyu who rescued him from that village back then, so of course Master knew the inside story.
Chu Danfeng shook his head: "No."
Even if he couldn't tell it, he didn't want to deceive Hua Tingxuan. Isn't the most important thing between Taoists and Taoists to be honest with each other?
"I can't tell you how I learned it," Chu Danfeng said, "but I want to tell you that all mixed-blood bastards are just farts. It is extremely ridiculous to distinguish people's good and evil based on blood, no matter how good they are.
, whether it’s a demon or not, as long as you have a clear conscience, you don’t need to care about other people’s opinions.”
"……Um."
Hua Tingxuan agreed, but he was thinking in his heart: The younger senior brother kept saying "no need to care", but just now he lowered himself to teach a mortal, all for his sake.
Just as he was thinking about it, he felt Chu Danfeng hold his hand: "It's over now, I will love you from now on... If anyone dares to bully you again, senior brother will make the decision for you."
The little senior brother's hand was soft and slender, smaller than his, but warm and reliable. The heat spread from the palm of his hand, and Hua Tingxuan's chest became hot.
In fact, there was no need for Chu Danfeng to make the decision for him. Hua Tingxuan had already avenged himself in the previous life. He did not let go of any of the evil boys from the deserted villages who bullied him in the past, and paid them back tenfold and a hundredfold.
At that time, he kept company with Chu Danfeng's corpse all day long. He had already developed inner demons, behaved surly, and relied on killing people for fun. He tortured the entire village to death, not only leaving no one alive, but also his soul.
Get into the flying smoke bottle and slowly "play" until your soul is gone.
Now that he has his little senior brother, when he sees these 'old friends' again, he doesn't feel so violent anymore - they love them to death, so he has no time to pay attention to them, since he already has Dan Feng anyway.
Hua Tingxuan held Chu Danfeng's hand with satisfaction and followed the one-armed young man's house.
Although One-Armed is not very old, he is only in his mid-twenties, but he already has a son who is seven or eight years old. The child does not recognize children, sniffs, and stares at the two guests curiously, but "One-Armed"
Very unwilling to let his son follow him, he slapped the child on the back of the head and said, "Go out and play!"
He also cursed at the child's mother and asked her to take the child away. The one-armed wife was also a pregnant woman with a big belly. Chu Danfeng noticed that there was also a willow branch tied to the threshold of his house and couldn't help but frown.
But in the end, he suppressed it and said nothing.
But One Arm noticed Chu Danfeng's gaze, "Taoist Priest, my baby is already five months pregnant, and she is crossing the willow branches every day. Can you accept the baby?"
Chu Danfeng: "!"
Hua Tingxuan calmly answered: "What's the price?"
"It's not expensive," One Arm gestured, "If you want a high-grade spiritual stone, you can convert it into silver!"
Hua Tingxuan: "It's not expensive. Is this the price of the willow branches, or does it include the baby's body?"
Many ghost cultivators use infant corpses to refine corpse oil, which is convenient for driving infant spirits. It is also a good raw material for refining evil magic weapons. The one-armed man listened to his expert questions and became more and more convinced that this was a 'receiver sincerely'
The ghost cultivator couldn't help but be more attentive: "Counting all of them together, we do business with integrity!"
"Take us to see 'Pizi' first."
"No problem, no problem."
One-armed lit an oil lamp and led the two of them into the semi-underground warehouse. With the light of the oil lamp, Chu Danfeng could see clearly what was in the room.
That’s a room filled with wind! Fuck! Human! Skin!
These are complete enough, but the facial features can barely be seen.
Chu Danfeng: “!!!!!!”
Chu Danfeng's legs weakened and she almost fell to her knees. Fortunately, Hua Tingxuan held her firmly.
He held up an oil lamp with one arm to illuminate it. He didn't notice their little movements and continued to introduce to himself: "Look, this one is fifty years old, this one is forty-six years old, and this one is the best, but also the most expensive. It's my grandfather, who is seventy years old."
Three years old! Seventy years are rare in life, and there is no one older than this one in the whole village!"
Chu Danfeng used the greatest perseverance to finally control his voice from trembling, "Are these your relatives?"
One Arm said matter-of-factly: "Yes, we have rules for killing our own people. Don't worry, they are all skinned alive. They all meet the requirements and can be inspected."
Whenever Chu Danfeng dared to inspect the goods, he wanted to use the "Escape Technique" and ran away. Fortunately, Hua Tingxuan squeezed his palm, took over the conversation considerately, and pretended to inspect it.
The final decision was made on the seventy-year-old human skin, and a lot of words were made using this human skin.
It turned out that these villagers did not make any "price difference" at all. They sold the first seriously ill old man using the method they heard from somewhere. After tasting the sweetness, they also forced to sell even the healthy old man. Later, they even sold the old man who was seriously ill.
He went even further and actually peeled the skin himself, dried it in the sun the way the ghost cultivators did, saved it, and sold it for a price.
As time went by, the villagers stopped producing, all the cultivated land was abandoned, and the human skins would always be sold out. They were unwilling to sit back and have nothing to do, so every household began to think of selling infant souls again.
No wonder there are neither old people nor young children in this village. The youngest child is probably the one-armed seven or eight-year-old son.
"Those ghost cultivators collect old men's skins and newly-formed babies at high prices," One Arm happily counted the spirit stones, thinking that Chu Danfeng and the two were ghost cultivators from out of town doing business for the first time, so he enthusiastically introduced them, "and then they introduced them
You can also do the same thing by growing small purple bottles and selling them to those demons, and you should be able to make a lot of money."
Chu Danfeng and Hua Tingxuan looked at each other: It turns out that the ghost cultivator is the so-called middleman.
But this makes sense. The villagers are just fragile mortals. How can they be so good at dancing among vicious monsters?
The villagers are not 'middlemen', but meat on the knife, yet they still foolishly compete for these petty profits, even selling their relatives...
One-arm carefully packed the old man's skin for them, but Hua Tingxuan noticed that Chu Danfeng's face was getting more and more ugly. He couldn't stand it any longer, so he took him up to get some air on the pretext of looking at the fetus.
One-Armed didn't care, and just warned: "You two Taoist priests think it's okay, but you must not carry my son behind your back. I am still counting on that boy to provide for me in my old age. Don't let him know about these dirty things."
Chu Danfeng wondered: "The whole village is doing this, how can you hide it from the children?"
One-armed took down his grandfather without raising his head: "Everyone hides it, they don't know!"
"..."
Chu Danfeng came out of the underground warehouse, calmed down for a long time, and clarified his thoughts: "So the ghost cultivator collected human skin, made a spiritual weapon, collected the soul, put it into a flying smoke bottle, and then handed it over to the demons."
"That's right," Hua Tingxuan also whispered, "Now that we have completed our mission, we can immediately set off back to the sect - who?!"
Hua Tingxuan suddenly said sternly, and fired a stream of spiritual power towards the weeds in the backyard. The grass parted, and a trembling little boy with a runny nose stood up. It was his one-armed son.
"I, I didn't mean it, I just wanted to see my grandpa again...Did you buy my grandpa away?"
Both of them were focused on the boy, but they didn't see a small "firefly"-like thing behind him fall into the grass, flap its wings, turn into a puff of black smoke, and disappear.
"..." Chu Danfeng, "Do you know what's inside?"
"Of course I know. Dad didn't ask me to see it, but no matter how sneaky he is, he can't hide it from me!" The kid asked, "There are my grandpa, grandma, and great-grandfather in it. Who did you buy?"
...This kind of conversation is so weird! Chu Danfeng felt goosebumps all over after hearing it, but Hua Tingxuan replied with interest: "It should be your great-grandfather."
The child breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "It's great, grandpa is still here! Grandpa is the best to me. Huh, my dad skinned grandpa alive and looked at me... When I grow up, he will
