Chapter 858 Human Greed
"There was an accident, it was an unexpected accident, that day, someone broke into the depths of the mountain..."

After saying the last sentence, the cup in her hand shook, and the wine in it spilled out at an angle, and fell on the ground, soaking a large area, but she continued to fill the glass of wine as if she hadn't noticed it. Squinting his eyes, he took a sip, his eyes were hazy and drunk, but the depths of his eyes were very clear.

Shaking the wine glass, he stopped talking, looked at Su Yun instead, and asked.

"Tell me, if you see someone dying in front of you, will you save it or not?"

"If it's not good for me to save, I won't save it. If it's just a little effort, it's okay to save..." Su Yun felt that she was selfish, she thought about it, she would indeed do this, she would not give selflessly To save others, to save a stranger, let alone put myself in crisis...

"Hehe...that's right, if it's not good for me to save her...but the little snake doesn't know, no, the little snake at that time has grown into a giant snake, half transformed into a dragon, she didn't After experiencing a thunder calamity, the snake skin on her body receded once, and a dragon scale would grow on her back. At that time, she looked very close to a dragon, with eighty scales on her body. In the last Thunder Tribulation, No.80 dragon scales grew out, and the fleshy bun turned into dragon horns, then... it could ascend to become a dragon, and it even gave itself a name, because it was born under a peach tree, So I took it as peach..."

"The sky...it seems to be really within reach..." Sister Tao stretched out her hand and grabbed at the void, but she didn't grab anything, and then said again.

"That day, a little girl stumbled into the depths of the mountain. It was already dark, and there were many wild beasts and ghosts in the mountain. Unfortunately, this little girl encountered a pack of wolves. Wolves live in packs. , They all acted together, they surrounded the little girl, it seems that they regarded her as a prey, and prepared to swallow it..."

"How can a prey that is being targeted by a pack of wolves escape? The little girl was a little confused, and stood there trembling, holding something tightly in her hand... and the peach that was trained to become a dragon in the mountains also looked at her. At this scene, it was hesitating whether to save humans, and in the end, she chose to save her..."

"Then if given the chance again, would you still choose to save?" Su Yun sat aside and suddenly said, she already knew something in her heart, probably because she saved the little girl...

Shaking her head, Sister Tao had a faint smile on her lips, her eyes were downcast, and shadows were cast on her face, making it difficult for people to tell what she was thinking. After a while, she spoke again.

"Perhaps it will... The heart of the old body is already old, and I can't guess how it will choose... Hehe..."

Sister Tao's voice was very old, revealing the vicissitudes of time, and then she opened her mouth to continue.

"Peach rescued the little girl, and the little girl naturally saw her appearance, saw Tao's huge body, and the transparent golden scales on her body, the little girl looked very well-behaved, looked at Tao carefully, not daring to After talking, it took a long time before I opened my mouth to say, are you a dragon?"

Having said that, Sister Tao had a faint smile on her lips, and then she spoke again.

"Probably because Tao has cultivated alone for thousands of years, and her relatives and friends around her have already died one by one, and she feels lonely, or it is something else, or she thinks that the little girl's eyes are too pure, She actually nodded and let the little girl sleep on her back. Just like that, the night passed, and the next day dawned...

People outside the village naturally mobilized people to start looking for the little girl, but they only dared to look outside, because they knew that there were many ferocious beasts in the depths of the dense forest. Zhu Tao said thank you...

Tao told the little girl not to talk about the things inside after she went out, and then taught the little girl how to go out, and the little girl obediently agreed, but what Tao didn't expect was that... the little girl picked it up when she was leaving. A piece of dragon scale that Tao faded and fell to the ground..."

Sister Tao's tone was extremely calm, but what Su Yun could feel was that her heart was not peaceful. The story she told was probably her own story...

"What happened later?" Su Yun'an quietly became a listener, and then asked again.

"After the little girl returned to the village, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They felt that there was no danger. Everything seemed to be peaceful. The little girl was sensible and didn't tell them about the Tao who practiced Jackie Chan in the mountains...but...some Things are full of twists and turns... The dragon scale picked up by the little girl aroused greed...

The value of dragon scales is limitless. Even people who don't know dragon scales will think that this is an extremely rare and beautiful jade. The little girl's father, seeing this dragon scale looks good, will take it out and sell it , who knows, it will be sold at a sky-high price... The whole village was overwhelmed when they heard the news, and everyone wanted to know where the "jade" came from. After learning that the jade was obtained by a little girl, everyone asked in every possible way, Finally, I finally found out the result and source, the dragon scale...the dragon's scale..."

"The temptation of money is so great. People, what can they sell for their own greed and desire for money? I don't know, but I only remember that on that day, people from the whole village went into the mountain in groups. The only thing... is to find the dragon, then get the dragon scale, and even other things on the dragon, all of which are treasures...

Probably fate, on that day, Tao’s last catastrophe came, as long as she survived this thunder catastrophe, she could really leap to the dragon gate to become a dragon, otherwise she would become a monster, a dragon, the little girl was very afraid that people would deal with her Tao, so she quietly followed the path Tao taught her, and wanted to inform Tao, but she didn't know that the villagers behind her had planned it long ago, and followed the little girl as an introduction, and entered the Deep in the jungle, where Peach is..."

Clenching the wine glass in her hand, Sister Tao's body trembled slightly. Looking at the mountain in front of the village, she calmed down and spoke again.

"It was as dark as splashing ink, and the surrounding scenery could not be seen clearly. The thunder in the clouds in the sky became louder and louder. At this time, the little girl came, and the villagers quietly followed the little girl. The villagers, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, their eyes full of greed, seem to want to sell off the peaches, cramps, skins, and treasures in front of them."
