At the beginning of the lanterns, night falls, and in the ancient Laifeng City, little lights shine through the restaurants and inn doors and windows on the street, adding a bit of tranquility to the city and a sense of mystery.【26nbsp;】
On the long street paved with blue bricks, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians. Chen Feng followed Jin Wen and strolled down the quiet long street. Several elongated figures were reflected in the dim light.
Walking slowly, a few people followed Jin Wen, twisting and turning on the street. After walking for about an hour, the bustling street gradually disappeared, replaced by low houses, some muddy.
Dirt roads, and sometimes the unpleasant smell of rotting food.
Looking sideways at the surrounding scenery, Wang Simiao frowned and looked at Jin Wen in confusion. He didn't understand that Jin Wen was just a mortal, why did the boss allow him to follow everyone, and he had just detected it with his spiritual mind.
, Jin Wen does not have spiritual roots at all, which means that it is impossible for him to practice powerful immortal magic.
Also puzzled were Qingqing and Feiyu. They didn't know what Chen Feng wanted to do, so they could only look at Chen Feng inquiringly.
With his hands behind his back, Chen Feng had an incomprehensible smile on his face. Facing the questioning looks from several people, he had no intention of explaining, which made them even more confused.
"Hero, the place where I live is just ahead. It's a bit shabby here. I'm so... I'm so sorry!" Since Chen Feng agreed to Jin Wen's joining, Jin Wen's face was full of excitement and ecstasy. He was almost home at this time.
Only then did he notice that it seemed a little inappropriate for Chen Feng and others to come to this slum-like place, so his face turned red and he said awkwardly.
"It's okay!" Sensing the ### on Jin Wen's face, Chen Feng smiled lightly, as if he didn't seem to care too much about the harsh environment around him, which made Jin Wen feel a little moved.
After walking for about a cup of tea, Jin Wen stopped outside a dilapidated wooden door. Through the simple door wall surrounded by low wooden sticks, Chen Feng and others keenly discovered that there were five or six people sitting in the yard.
Slightly younger than Jin Wen, these teenagers were both male and female, with simple clothes, thin bodies, and yellowish complexions, which were obviously caused by long-term malnutrition.
Hearing the noise, several people who were sitting in the yard chatting turned their heads alertly and looked towards the wooden door. When they saw the golden inscriptions, they were happy at first, and then their eyes fell on Chen Feng and others, and they all
He frowned, with a complex look on his face that was as alert and questioning as a frightened guinea pig.
In the courtyard, there is an old building on display. The surroundings are messy and the dim light coming from the windows all illustrates the poverty and hardship here.
His eyes swept over the crowd in the courtyard. The old clothes and trembling bodies in the darkness seemed to reflect the fear and uneasiness in the hearts of these children. Perhaps the arrival of Chen Feng and others suddenly broke the original tranquility here.
, adding a few ripples to the peaceful hearts of these children!
Feiyu, Wenqing and Wang Simiao stood at the entrance of the courtyard, looking at the people in the courtyard strangely. They didn't know why there were such vigilant looks on their young faces! But Chen Feng was different. After the development of the 21st century,
After consultation and extensive knowledge, Chen Feng keenly saw some clues in their eyes.
Poverty, suffering, hesitation and helplessness in life have become like shackles, deeply trapping these children's bodies and minds. This kind of confused and timid eyes can only be seen when they have lived on the edge of life and death since childhood, hungry and unwilling to eat every day.
Appears in the eyes of humble living people.
It's just that Chen Feng doesn't understand what kind of living environment it is that would make a group of teenage children show such terrifying and heartbreaking expressions!
"Great...hero, these...these are all my brothers and sisters, you...please come in!" Jin Wen seemed to feel the heaviness in the air, and there was an unexplained soreness in his heart, and he grabbed it with his hands in embarrassment.
He grabbed his thigh, then gave a relieved look to his brothers and sisters in the courtyard, and then turned to Chen Feng and said.
"Yeah!" Chen Feng couldn't help but feel a little sentimental in his heart. Years of cultivating immortals had made some microcosms in the mortal world fade in his mind, but the scene in front of him evoked his vague memory. Maybe this is what immortality means.
, once you enter the path of cultivating immortality, too many things in the world will really become blurred as time goes by. However, if you can’t see or hear, does that really prove that nothing happened? What is the purpose of cultivating immortality?
Do you want to live a happy life, or do you want to escape from the true emotions of the world?
Trying to squeeze out a smile, Chen Feng stepped into the small courtyard. Under the surprised eyes of a group of people, he walked directly to the simple stone pier, lifted up his white gown, and sat directly on it.
The bright white robe was extremely eye-catching in the night, and it was incompatible with the muddy courtyard and the stone piers covered with yellow mud. However, Chen Feng sat on it calmly, and he sat so naturally and casually that the eyes of the young people immediately changed.
It's a bit softer.
"Da... hero, you... this is, this place is too dirty, Xiao Wu, why are you still standing there, go and take out the stool in the room!" Jin Wen was greatly moved. Maybe in the eyes of many people, people like them are
People who live at the bottom of the world do not deserve any dignity at all, but the fact is exactly the opposite. The more unsatisfactory a person's life is, the less their dignity is allowed to be trampled by anyone, because in their view, dignity is their last possession.
, and it is also something that can be defended with life.
"No, it's very nice here. Come and sit together!" Chen Feng shook his head and said that Jin Wen didn't need to bother him. The smile on his face did not diminish at all, and he said to Qingqing, Feiyu and others.
Asking questions, her eyes swept over these children. Although Bingxue was smart, she didn't know why Chen Feng did this, but she obviously wanted to get closer to these children, so without hesitation, she slowly stepped forward and asked
There was a stone pier close to Chen Feng and he sat on it directly.
Looking at each other, Feiyu and Wang Simiao didn't care when they saw Chen Feng and Wenqing. They were not troublesome people either, so they stepped forward one after another and sat down one after another.
Jin Wen saw the actions of several people, his eyes were red, he was pickpocketing the other party, but the other party did not pursue the case and instead treated him with no disdain. How could he repay such a great favor?
"Brother Wen, who...are they?" At this time, the vigilance in the eyes of several young people in the courtyard weakened a lot. A dark-faced young man who looked dark and thin whispered in Jin Wen's ear.
Bian asked.
"They..." Jin Wen looked at Chen Feng, and then told his brothers and sisters what happened today. When several people heard that Jin Wen was caught pickpocketing, they couldn't help but exclaimed, showing worry.
Afterwards, when they heard that the other party not only did not pursue the case, but instead gave Jin Wen a gold brick, they all showed expressions of disbelief and shock.
After listening to Jin Wen's narration, Jin Wen told Chen Feng about the affairs of his brothers one by one.
It turns out that Jin Wen and others were orphans, adopted by an old man named Jin since they were young. However, the old man was weak and died of illness when Jin Wen and others were very young!
After the old man passed away, the brothers had no ability to make ends meet, so Jin Wen had no choice but to take the only three boys in the family and start a life of begging.
However, for the four brothers and two younger sisters, begging alone could not satisfy their growing bodies. In the end, the young and ignorant Jin Wen began to take his brothers and pickpocket around the city in order to support his brothers and sisters.
Daily needs.
Jin Wen's narration is simple and unpretentious, but it contains too much helplessness and bitterness. Chen Feng has been listening quietly, while Wenqing and Feiyu have long been secretly sad and lamenting the unfairness of life.
After being silent for a long time, Chen Feng sighed softly, glanced at several people again, and said softly: "I came here mainly because of the bronze inscriptions. There are too many sufferings in the world, and I, Chen, have no way to save them one by one.
, but meeting each other is fate. Since you and I are destined, now I have two paths for you to choose. But don’t worry, no matter which path you take, you can get rid of your current situation and no longer have to live a humble life! "
Upon hearing this, several teenagers had confused and suspicious looks on their faces. It seemed that they didn't know why Chen Feng wanted to help them and what Chen Feng wanted to get from them.
"Hero, tell me, I believe you must be a good person!" The thin, black boy, whom Jin Wen called Xiao Wu, spoke first before Jin Wen could speak.
With a faint smile, Chen Feng looked directly at a few people and said: "To be honest, I am not the hero you call me, I am a cultivator of immortality!"
"Cultivation... Cultivation of immortality?" Several people opened their mouths and looked at each other in astonishment. They were speechless for a long time. The last little girl of fourteen or fifteen years old suddenly screamed and said excitedly: "Is it possible to be like Huang Banxian?
Are you doing the magic dance to cure other people's illnesses?"
Mentioning Huang Banxian, the eyes of several young men suddenly showed gleams of admiration, and they were astonished to Chen Feng for a moment! But Chen Feng only felt a black cloud passing above his head, and countless black lines appeared on his head, and Qing Qing was even more stunned.
After a moment, he then pursed his lips and giggled!
"Ahem..." Chen Feng hurriedly coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment, but Xiao Wu strode forward ignorantly, grabbed Chen Feng's white sleeves, and said with a trembling voice full of longing.
: "Great Immortal, please teach me. I also want to be like you, perform the magic dance and help people read their fortunes. If I can learn how to do it, my brothers and sisters will not have to go hungry and cold. I beg you, Immortal."
!”
Uh! Chen Feng's face became darker and darker. At the same time, he lowered his head and looked at the small black hands on his sleeves. He wanted to cry but had no tears. Did he really look like the liar on the roadside?
Hahaha laughter has already spread from the mouths of Wenqing and others. Wang Simiao laughed without any scruples, while Wenqing and Feiyu also suppressed their faces until their faces were red, and there were a few tears in their eyes. Unexpectedly, Chen
A monk in the late period of Emperor Feng Tangtang was actually regarded as a charlatan performing on the street. If word spread about this, I am afraid that Chen Feng would immediately become a laughing stock in the mouths of his inner circle and immortal cultivators...
