Chapter 142 The Frustrated Man's Blank Paper and the Demon's Heart 2 in 1
"'You', who are you?"
When Zheng Xiu asked this question, his fists were clenched, his muscles were tense, and the traces of murderous intent that had surfaced were quietly suppressed.
When Ruchen heard this, his head tilted, his neck clicked, his face was full of disbelief, one eye widened, and he kept squinting, wondering with a strange expression: "Brother Zheng, were you shot in the head by Kui Lang?
"
"..."
Shoot your sister.
The corner of Zheng Xiu's mouth twitched, and the tense atmosphere that was finally created was dispelled by Ruchen's words.
"I see."
After a while, Ruchen scratched his bald head and suddenly understood.
Ruchen's expression suddenly changed, causing Zheng Xiu to take two steps back and look at Ruchen warily.
Why did Zheng Xiu ask that question?
When Zheng Xiu opened his eyes, they were full of bloodshot eyes and dark circles, which made Ruchen see the clues, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
The human heart is unpredictable, let alone the human heart of a serious patient, so we have to guard against it.
The smell of fish and the smell of fish wafted at the same time. Zheng Xiu followed the smell and saw that Ruchen had lit a bonfire at some point, with a small fish about three inches long stuck on each of the two wooden sticks.
"In fact, my adoptive father's son was killed in the army during the Northern Barbarian Rebellion more than 20 years ago, and his body was not found. In the past 20 years, my adoptive father was taciturn, and only forged iron. My adoptive father, he was in the town.
Horseshoeing is a specialty. The neighbors only knew that the adoptive father had a withdrawn personality. When he accepted the young monk as his adopted son, they even said that the adoptive father missed his son so much that he went crazy. They all turned a blind eye and took it as real.
They all came to express their congratulations."
"He is Ruchen's adoptive father, an ordinary blacksmith with a thousand years of life."
Sometimes she looks shy, like the young woman next door;
Sometimes fierce and fierce, like a bandit in the forest;
Sometimes innocent, like a child on the street;
The most common one is the current Ruchen, who is a serious ascetic who speaks one thing.
The old monk saw at a glance that Ruchen was a "frustrated person" with only an empty shell left, so he taught "Heart Zen"?
If this situation is understood to mean that Ruchen's original "personality" has been taken away, and now a new personality is born in Ruchen's body? It fills the vacancy of the original human soul?
Can you still... play like this?
"Well, Brother Zheng is so tired. The young monk went to catch fish in the river to see if he can satisfy his appetite today."
If Ruchen's "serious illness" is just a side effect of "Ascetic Monk Stranger", and Ruchen can control it freely, then Zheng Xiu can rest assured.
Ruchen patted his rolling belly and lay on the ground, burping: "Hiccup~ Brother Zheng is so handsome!"
The first time he met Monk Hua was the most ridiculous "underworld scene" that Zheng Xiu had ever seen in his life: a good-looking monk pretended to be a flower girl and sneaked into a brothel to pick up clients for men. Although the client did not accept him in the end.
Success, but the scene where Ruchen dressed up as a woman was unforgettable for Zheng Xiu.
Ruchen: "This matter started about three years ago. Three years ago, when the young monk opened his eyes, he fell in front of the door of a blacksmith named Hua in Jiangjun Town."
The reason why Zheng Xiu didn't do this was that he was worried about Ruchen's "inner demon" and that this place had not completely escaped Ye Weiyang's sphere of influence. Once he was no longer here and Ruchen was found by the raven, the consequences would be disastrous.
.
Zheng Xiu jumped into the sky, and after spinning, the ink shadow on the scimitar transformed into the phantom of a dragon's head.
This starts from the first time we met Ruchen.
Zheng Xiu was silent and looked up at the sky. The moon was shining brightly in his head. He originally just wanted to close his eyes and rest his mind, but he fell into a deep sleep.
This looks like a scar left when escaping.
"The master said that the name of the young monk Huahua will be the biggest obstacle for the young monk to find the past, so he named the young monk 'Ruchen'. The implication is to let the young monk understand that his adoptive father has returned to the earth like dust, and fallen leaves return to their roots.
Only by letting go of one part of the past can we find another part of the past. The young monk couldn't bear it, but he remembered his righteous father's instructions before his death, so he decided to change his name to Ruchen and hide his relationship with his righteous father deep in his heart."
Ruchen's face was full of nostalgia.
"After Haosheng buried his adoptive father, the young monk had nowhere to go. He remembered Master Deng's words and couldn't hold back for some reason. He went up the mountain to meet Master Deng and asked him to help the young monk find the past."
Before Ruchen could wait for Zheng Xiu to agree, he took off his boots, rolled up his trouser legs, and walked to the river that ran through the valley to catch fish.
Ruchen thought Zheng Xiu understood, but he didn't know that Zheng Xiu was thinking about something else, so he smiled and continued.
The reason why Zheng Xiu chose this moment to show off his cards to Ruchen was because Zheng Xiu had to make a big gamble next.
Unexpectedly...just fishing.
Zheng Xiu didn't leave Chu Susu behind in the small village out of the blue. He always felt that this woman was untrustworthy, her behavior was too coquettish, and she even took advantage of a strong man. Bah! Of course he couldn't trust her.
Zheng Xiu fought all the way and gradually understood how to play this [Surprise Cage] challenge. Generally speaking, the Surprise Cage only has one or two fixed cells. That is, the "form" of the monster and the "characteristics" of the assembly.
", sometimes the moves are not limited. The challenge of limited moves will be a little higher than the suitability of unlimited improvements.
"Isn't it just staying up late? Who is afraid of whom?"
The three-inch-long fish is not enough to fill your stomach, but it can't even fit between your teeth.
[Wandering of the Gods], which should have been canceled early, has already exceeded its limit with just one breath of hard work.
"Oh, who knows."
In the blink of an eye, the trembling fish lurking at the bottom of the river seemed to go crazy, and the white scales all over the river rolled and boiled.
After the shock, Ruchen came to his senses, quickly took off his clothes and ran to the river to fish.
No, Zheng Xiu thought about it and laughed in surprise. He suddenly felt that Ruchen's mind-cultivation meditation had the same effect as his own "incarnation". Zheng Xiu could also walk through different paths in different incarnations, and if
Chen, however, takes different paths with different "personalities".
"The dragon wiggles its tail, the fish and the dragon play together!"
Qiao Jin shook his head, and the fish splashed like rain and landed on the river bank.
There were many scars on Ruchen's back, some looked like cuts from knives, some looked like arrow wounds, and some looked like burns from fire.
Now Fengbei's ghostly aura is getting weaker and weaker for some unknown reason, which makes Zheng Xiu feel that the connection between the two is gradually getting farther and farther. He must make sure that the new inn [Ascetic] is safe, and he must confirm Ruchen's "serious illness".
It will affect his next trip south.
Zheng Xiu stared at Ruchen's confused expression and was speechless for a moment.
At that moment, Zheng Xiu felt relieved and apologized to Ruchen: "I'm sorry, Zheng has encountered too many Qianmen generals recently and is always suspicious."
Zheng Xiu still remembers the couple at the stall opposite the noodle shop.
Zheng Xiu's pupils shrank suddenly, thinking of the ghosts in [Qixin Town].
I don't know how long it took.
But looking like this, Ruchen doesn't look like a "frustrated person" that Zheng Xiu has seen.
etc.
Ruchen was stunned.
Unfortunately not.
"Brother Zheng! Brother Zheng! Grilled fish, eat grilled fish quickly!"
"Brother Zheng, your thaumaturgy is really ugly."
Ruchen clasped his hands together and said with a smile: "It turns out that Brother Zheng saw how miserable the young monk was when he was having trouble with his inner demons."
However, this time, compared to when General Zhen faced Gu Qiutang and Jun Buxiao, the phantom of the dragon head was more solid, and the dragon's pupils were more piercing.
Before Zheng Xiu took action, he thought the macho man was going to do something.
Zheng Xiu looked at Ruchen's back, held the scroll in his arms, leaned against the stone wall and closed his eyes.
"Wait a minute." Zheng Xiu asked in surprise when he heard this: "The old monk said you are 'frustrated'?"
During the experience of going to Xiangu Temple, Zheng Xiu once took the form of Zheng Ya and walked with Fengbei, Douxie and Yueyan, and stopped briefly in Danlang Town.
"Later, for some reason, my adoptive father took it seriously. He sold all his belongings and entertained ten tables. At the reunion banquet, his adoptive father drank six bottles in a row and became drunk. He hid in the room and kept crying, crying, crying, and screaming.
Another name."
When Zheng Xiu thought of this outrageous possibility not long ago, he thought it was unbelievable at first. But then considering that the essence of the practice of "Menjing" is acting method, he wondered whether there might be a possibility that Ruchen was trying to pretend to be something different.
When playing a role, he loses himself while pretending, and a "new personality" is born.
After constantly challenging himself, Zheng Xiu's compatibility with strange things has improved a lot.
"In the next year, the young monk learned to forge with his adoptive father in the blacksmith shop. But in winter, the adoptive father contracted tuberculosis, and the good doctors in the town were unable to treat it. The young monk heard that there was an eminent monk in Yunliu Temple, so he memorized
He went up the mountain with his adoptive father. When he arrived at Yunliu Temple, the young monk met the master. The master said that I was destined to Yunliu Temple and wanted to accept the young monk as his disciple. As for his adoptive father's illness, it was God's will. He said that his adoptive father only had ten days left.
His fate turned out to be true, and ten days later, my adoptive father passed away."
[Wandering Mind] consumes Zheng Xiu's energy. The current situation is like a normal person who has not slept for more than ten days and is exhausted. Now, even if Zheng Xiu sleeps for a while and his mental fatigue is relieved, this is just "
"Some" is all.
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
Zheng Xiu had a vague feeling that when the time was right, under certain circumstances, he would be able to unlock the fourth form of the monster.
At the last moment, Zheng Xiu collided with his two swords and then flicked them upwards.
"The adoptive father felt sorry for the young monk who was helpless and lonely. He was even more worried about his enemies chasing him, so he asked him to hide his name anonymously. He accepted him as his adopted son and announced to the people in the town that his long-lost son was back."
This sentence may have been held in Ruchen's heart for a long time. He had wanted to say it for a long time. Now, while there was no one else around, Ruchen muttered and complained softly.
Zheng Xiu looked strange and didn't know how to discuss this with Ruchen.
"Later, the adoptive father told the young monk that when he found Ruchen, Ruchen was covered in scars and his life was hanging by a thread, so he kindly took her in, applied herbs to Ruchen and fed her porridge and water to heal her injuries. Under the careful care of her adoptive father, Ruchen
Survived."
Then, while walking with Ruchen, Ruchen showed all kinds of strange things.
Could it be...that Qixin Town is really in Ruchen's mind?
Grass! Isn’t it?
Zheng Xiu's expression changed slightly and he remained silent.
Ruchen hurriedly went down to the river to catch fish, scraped the scales, and removed the dirt. He worked for a long time until his face was covered in blood, which looked a bit funny.
When someone discovers a secret, it is no longer a secret, and Ruchen immediately feels relieved.
In an instant, more than a dozen water columns as high as ten feet rose into the sky.
If it happened once or twice, Zheng Xiu might think it was Ruchen going crazy, but if it happened often, Zheng Xiu felt that this situation could not be described as "going crazy".
Zheng Xiu ignored Ruchen. What he shook this time was [Form One]. Two large scimitars burning with black flames appeared in his left and right hands respectively.
Does everyone have a certain probability of playing this way, or are only "ascetics and strangers" able to be so promiscuous?
Have a serious illness.
Zheng Xiu was stunned and sat down.
The dazed Zheng Xiu was awakened by a shaking. His first reaction was to hug him. When he found that the scroll was still in his arms, he breathed a sigh of relief. When he raised his eyes, he saw that Ruchen was as happy as a child.
The dirty face is right in front of you.
Could it be that...
At this time, Ruchen opened his clothes and turned his back to Zheng Xiu.
Boom boom boom boom!
In other words, without limiting the moves, Zheng Xiu can make certain adjustments to the ultimate move, and even derive different moves under the same conditions.
"The young monk didn't know what happened to him at that time. He forgot about the past and his past life."
[Form 1] [Provocation] [Unspecified].
The valley is quiet and the terrain is hidden, making it suitable for hiding.
"Zheng just thinks it's weird and doesn't know the details."
He is too tired.
The "new personalities" are walking in different paths, each going his own way and drifting away.
The two scimitars collided violently, hitting the river bed downwards.
"Brother Zheng has a sharp eye, and he has discovered that the little monk is haunted by inner demons."
Zheng Xiu, who was picking his teeth with a straw, asked: "Is it still ugly?"
So weird.
Zheng Xiu had been carefully observing Ruchen's expression from the moment he started speaking. From the beginning, Ruchen's expression was frank and did not seem to be fake. If Ruchen could really lie so flawlessly, even his expression could be so natural,
Zheng Xiu also had nothing to say.
The sky is clear and cloudless, like washing with water, which is particularly pleasant. The most important thing is that there are no annoying crows flying around.
Ruchen was puzzled: "Brother Zheng is talking about Sister Susu? She is not a Qianmen general."
If you insist on saying "you are not yourself" or "you were yourself but now you are not yourself" in front of Ruchen, this will undoubtedly elevate a good topic to the level of idealistic philosophy.
Ruchen smiled casually: "Later, the adoptive father named the young monk 'Huahua' because the adoptive father said that when he found the young monk at the door, the young monk vaguely repeated the word '花', which may be the name of the young monk."
The fate with the adoptive father. The adoptive father thought that the young monk’s name must have a flower character in it, so he chose the name, hoping that one day the young monk could recover his memory and find himself.”
Zheng Xiu was slightly stunned and asked: "What is the inner demon?"
The fish in the river were attracted by the provocation, and angrily jumped over the faucet and out of the water.
What started out as a meal that barely satiated my hunger turned into an all-fish family feast.
Zheng Xiu rubbed his eyes, laughed at himself, and tied the ancient painting tightly behind his back again.
The human soul is divided into four parts: intention, form, movement, and direction. If the soul is lost, it is called "frustration." "Frustration" is different from the "amnesia" in Zheng Xiu's usual cognition. Frustration is equivalent to the loss of "heart".
There is only a body left. Just like the timid husband in Danglang Town, his behavior is like an empty shell, lifeless at all.
"That night, the young monk called Daddy through the door, and his foster father suddenly stopped crying."
Zheng Xiu took a good nap. Although he did not recover much, it was equivalent to a small knock, which was better than not knocking on the ground. The fatigue disappeared a little. He walked to the river, shook his right hand, and the bones pierced out from the palm, and the flesh and blood squirmed.
"When practicing mind meditation, the young monk needs to enter the world and experience all kinds of life, experience joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, and taste jealousy, love, and hate. During this process, various inner demons will be born in the young monk's heart. These inner demons will affect the young monk's behavior.
It will look a bit weird. This is what the young monk calls the 'heart demon'."
Ruchen paused for a moment, then smiled and comforted Zheng Xiu: "Brother Zheng, don't worry, the young monk has long been accustomed to criticism and is not afraid of rumors. Over the years, the young monk has been able to stick to his true heart and not be deceived by his inner demons. If Brother Zheng is really worried,
Young monk, once you discover that the young monk has inner demons, you can just knock him out, and the young monk will not complain at all. No, maybe the resentment in the young monk's heart due to being beaten is also the ultimate calamity in the journey of cultivating the mind. The young monk can do it afterwards
Deal with it calmly."
He had known that there were all kinds of weird ways to see the door in the world, and the path that the monk took might not be that weird, but Zheng Xiu couldn't understand it now.
Combined with the fact that Ruchen can perform different kinds of magic, Zheng Xiu reasonably suspected that several "personalities" appeared in Ruchen's body.
"Master once said that people have obsessions, and if they have many obsessions, they become demons. Demons are born from the heart, and the heart is born from demons. Without inner demons, people are useless. Although all kinds of obsessions are inferior, it is precisely these obsessions
Thoughts make a person live a true life, and living is who I am." Ruchen smiled and played a riddle. Then he saw Zheng Xiu's unhappy face. Thinking of the strong man's fierceness and fear of being beaten, he quickly explained: "Master said, if the young monk
If you want to find your true heart, you need to train your mind first, so you teach the young monk how to practice mind meditation. The master said that the young monk has lost his past, is a 'frustrated person', and has become a blank piece of paper, so he is the most suitable candidate for practicing mind meditation."
It's called "sick".
Zheng Xiu's way of controlling strange objects, from the beginning of mindless blasting, is evolving in the direction of coarse and fine.
Ruchen's face was filled with a free and easy smile at this moment. When Zheng Xiu revealed this matter, it seemed that some kind of heavy burden was instantly lifted.
Suddenly he looked at Ruchen's lonely expression and wanted to warm a pot of wine.
Zheng Xiu decided to rest here until sunset and continue southward after dark.
After hearing this, most of Zheng Xiu's doubts disappeared.
Hearing this, Zheng Xiu frowned and finally couldn't help but intervene and asked: "What does this have to do with your 'inner demon'?"
The best way to solve Zheng Xiu's current predicament is to hand the ancient paintings into Ruchen's hands, then Zheng Xiu cancels his [fugue], returns his consciousness to his true body, and sleeps well for a few days and nights to regain his energy.
Maybe this is the characteristic of "Ascetic Stranger"?
After meal.
After saying that, Ruchen's face turned red and he glanced at Zheng Xiu secretly. His expression was completely different from that of serious Ruchen, and he looked slightly enchanting.
"Brother Zheng~" Ruchen suddenly crossed his fingers uneasily in front of him and whispered: "Can we..."
When Zheng Xiu saw that Ruchen was having trouble with his demons again and was making such outrageous noises, his face turned blue and he raised his fists.
Ruchen instantly returned to his original state, closed his mouth tightly, quickly clasped his hands together, silently recited the Zen, drove away the inner demons and evil thoughts, and called out his sins.
