Douluo: Demon King from Another World

Chapter 128: The old beggar asks for help.

After passing through a dense forest outside the city, Tang Fan saw a dilapidated thatched house in the distance.

There are several big holes in the entire roof, and there are overgrown weeds all around. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a place where people can live?

When he walked near the thatched house, Tang Fan smelled a sour smell, which was so pungent that it made people sick. Even Tang Fan couldn't bear it anymore. He turned around to look at the little beggar and found that he didn't feel any discomfort and didn't even frown.

"Old beggar, I'm back." ”

The little beggar shouted and ran back quickly.

But there was no response from the room, so Tang Fan walked in to take a look. I saw a haggard old man lying on a piece of bluestone, dressed in ragged clothes. The huge rancid smell also emanated from him, and he didn't know how many days he hadn't taken a shower.

There were four or five holes in a pair of cloth shoes, and the exposed soles were covered with calluses. His hands naturally drooped to the edge of the bluestone, and there was no trace of blood on his weather-beaten old cheeks.

The little beggar thought that the old beggar was asleep, so he nudged him a few times: "Old beggar, wake up, I'm back." ”

But the old beggar still didn't move at all, and a touch of uneasiness suddenly arose in his heart. The little beggar's eyes were shining with tears, and his voice was choked: "Old beggar, wuwu... wake up, it's me, I Come back...

Tang Fan just watched quietly. The little guy who had just been beaten by two big men without even crying was now so sad!

He stretched out his hand to feel the old beggar's breath and found that the old man was not dead yet and still had a glimmer of life.

The little beggar noticed his actions and quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Tang Fan: "Benefactor, please save the old beggar!" ”

Looking at the little beggar with blood oozing from his forehead, Tang Fan felt moved in his heart. In his previous life, he had begged people like this before, but God was unfair and no one was willing to help.

"Get up first. If you stand in front of me, I can't save him." "Seeing the little beggar still kneeling stubbornly in front of Tang Fan, he said helplessly.

The little beggar looked happy and quickly made room for Tang Fan.

Tang Fan grabbed one of the old beggar's hands. At this time, there were not many signs of life left in his body. And this is not caused by any injury, but by natural birth, aging, illness and death.

It is not difficult to bring people back from the brink of death. The problem is that this old beggar is an ordinary person without any soul power!

Even if the old beggar had a trace of soul power in his body, Tang Fan could immediately use the elixir and use his own soul power to pull the other person's soul power for refining.

Unfortunately, it backfired. Tang Fan's elixir was of no use. Although the Bodhi Jade Liquid was mild and contained life energy, the energy was too huge and was beyond what the old beggar could bear now. It would only make him die immediately.

In desperation, Tang Fan injected a bit of his soul power into the old beggar's body. He wants to use this soul power to forcibly activate the old beggar's last vitality, which is what people often say, the resurrection!

After a long time, the old beggar's complexion changed. The originally pale cheeks gradually became rosy, and his breathing became much more steady than before.

“Me, where is this? ”

As soon as he opened his eyes slightly, the little beggar couldn't wait to run to him, grabbed his hand and asked with concern: "Old beggar, are you awake?" Very good. ”

With the help of the little beggar, the old beggar slowly sat up straight. When he saw the scars on the little beggar's body and the vegetables under his feet, his face turned serious, and he said with both distress and disappointment: "You kid, Why did you steal other people's things again? Didn’t everyone tell you that it’s wrong to do that? ”

As he said that, the old big hand gestured to strike. The little beggar suddenly got smart and hurriedly knelt down and put his hands on his head. It can be seen that he is still very afraid of this old beggar.

Tang Fan had quick eyesight and quick hands. He quickly pressed the old beggar's hand and explained: "Old man, you misunderstood. These vegetables were not stolen. I bought them for this child." ”

Only then did the old beggar see that besides the two beggars, there was another person here.

“I wonder who you are...…”

"Junior Tang Fan is an outsider who just arrived in Spiritual Medicine Town today. When he entered the city, he saw the child fainting from hunger on the street, so he couldn't bear it, so he rescued him. ”

As he spoke, Tang Fan glanced at the little beggar. The little beggar understood and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, old beggar, it was your benefactor who rescued you just now." ”

The old beggar was stunned for a while when he heard this, but when he thought that Tang Fan in front of him had saved him, he stood up slowly and tremblingly knelt down towards Tang Fan.

Tang Fan quickly supported him and asked him to sit down again, and then said in an apologetic tone: "Old man, you don't have to be polite to me. It was fate that I saved this child." If you kowtow to me, this junior will lose his life. ”

"Old man, thank you sir for saving my life." The old beggar nodded his thanks, and then looked at the little beggar: "Child, go and make some good food. Don't neglect your benefactor." ”

“Got it. ”The little beggar stood up, picked up the vegetables on the floor and ran out. Tang Fan and the old beggar were the only ones left in the entire thatched hut.

"Old man, you should know that your end is approaching, right?" ”

Seeing the reluctance in the old beggar's eyes, Tang Fan couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, this feeling of wandering into the world comes really unconsciously." If it weren't for my benefactor, I'm afraid I would have died long ago. ”

Tang Fan hesitated for a moment, then said: "Actually, I just used my soul power to stimulate your last vitality. In other words, you are just returning to the light now." You will still die in an hour at most. There's nothing I can do about it then. ”

Unexpectedly, the old beggar suddenly laughed and said: "Hahaha... so what, birth, old age, illness and death are the cycles of heaven, and they are nothing but normal things." Old man, I have already looked away. To be honest, I would also like to thank my benefactor for allowing me to live for one more hour and to see this child again. ”

Looking at the little beggar who was cooking seriously outside, the old beggar had an indescribable feeling in his eyes.

"Benefactor." The old beggar suddenly became excited and said, "I hope sir will show mercy. For the sake of the little old man's imminent death, please grant me a request." ”

As he spoke, the old beggar knelt on the ground with a snap, almost falling to the ground with his whole body.

Tang Fan quickly supported him and said, "Old man, don't be like this. If you have any requests, just ask. I'll listen first." ”

"No, you have to promise me, otherwise I won't be able to kneel down!" ” After saying that, the old beggar also kowtowed heavily to Tang Fan.

"Okay, okay, what's your request first?" "Tang Fan was really speechless. How come the old man and the young man are always like this, kneeling down at every turn?"

Hearing Tang Fan's promise, the old beggar trembled, pointed to the little beggar outside and said, "Please benefactor, please take in this poor child!" At this point, I don’t want to hide it anymore. ”

"My dear friend, you don't know. This child is actually a child that Lao Chan picked up in a wilderness five years ago." When I picked him up, I wanted to leave him with a family. I am a beggar, and this child will not be lucky if he stays with me. However, no family was willing to raise him. ”

"As time went by, I became more and more reluctant to let him go. I kept him by my side and taught him how to behave. Now, my end is approaching, and I really can't bear to see a child like him going out to beg. He should have a life of his own. Begging is not his future! ”

As he spoke, the old beggar suddenly started crying. He hated himself for being a beggar, and he hated himself for not being able to give the little beggar a good childhood. He was always filled with guilt towards the little beggar.

Just like a little beggar who steals and is often chased, beaten and insulted, how can he not know? Of course he knows. But he also knew that the little beggar did this for him, so he was never willing to beat him, because he knew that the little beggar had always been a good boy!

“Old sir, don't belittle yourself. You are indispensable to the fact that the little beggar can live to this day. ”

"It's just that I, Tang Fan, am not a good person. I have killed many people before, and I may kill more people in the future. Letting the little beggar follow me may not be a good choice. ”

I wanted the old beggar to retreat when he saw the difficulty, but unexpectedly he said something like this: "Sir, as the saying goes, the eyes are the windows to the soul. Through a person's eyes, you can know what he is thinking." Now, my husband has been able to save us twice and is willing to talk to me, a beggar, for a long time. It can be seen that the gentleman's heart is not bad. ”

"I have lived and begged all my life, old beggar. I have met all kinds of people." But this is the first time I have seen such a pure beggar like Mr. I believe that Mr. Wang only kills those who deserve to be killed and will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. ”

"Let the little beggar follow you. Even if he is your servant, it is better than going out to beg." ”

The old beggar's sincere gaze made Tang Fan feel a little guilty. How can he be as good as the old beggar said? He just doesn't feel any guilt when killing people.

"Okay, since you said so, I will reluctantly accept this child." "After all was said and done, Tang Fan couldn't find any reason to refuse." Anyway, this little beggar is pleasing to the eye, and maybe he can be of use if you stay with him.

"Old man, thank you so much! "He gave Tang Fan another heavy ring on his head. 7K妏揩

After getting up, the old beggar took out a shabby baggage from somewhere. When he opened it, there were only two things inside.

One is a round thing, similar to a compass, and the whole thing is engraved with strange patterns. The overall look is very period.

The other one is more ordinary, a red bead as big as a fist. I touched it lightly with my fingers and found that the beads were actually warm? ! It's not like ordinary beads that come in cold.

"Sir," the old beggar saw the confusion in Tang Fan's eyes and explained, "This bead was placed next to the little beggar when he picked it up." I guess this was a token left by the little beggar’s parents, so it has been kept until now. ”

"This disc was accidentally obtained when I was digging through garbage in my early years. I thought it was quite good, so I kept it with me and was reluctant to sell it." Now, as a thank you gift, I will give it to Mr. This is the most valuable thing in my body. You must accept it. ”

Tang Fan couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to reach out and take it. I don't know if it was his misunderstanding, but the bead became a little warmer as soon as he took it.

Before he could think about it, the little beggar came in from outside with a pot of vegetable soup. It looks like it tastes good.

This may be the old beggar’s last meal in this world!
