camouflage salted fish

The lunch was extremely sumptuous, everyone ate to their hearts content, and Shen Budu ate until he was full.

After all, he had quietly added a bowl of fish balls in advance.

After dinner, Song Yifan and Qiu Wanran found Zhongbo and told him about leaving Beihuang together.

Uncle Zhong nodded calmly after hearing this: "Go away. Young people shouldn't be stuck in this place. After so many years, you should go out."

Song Yifan was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Bo Zhong had misunderstood: "Bo Zhong, we all want to leave together, so do you and Ruan Ruan."

Uncle Zhong shook his head, "I'm not leaving. I'm old, I've been here for 40 years, and I don't want to go anywhere now, so don't worry about me."

"How can that work?" Qiu Wanran frowned, "You are so old and in poor health, how can we leave you here alone?"

He thought that the old man was old-fashioned in thinking and relocating, and he was unwilling to leave the home he had lived in for decades, so he patiently persuaded him: "Our Northern Wilderness is too remote, and a giant monster happened a while ago, it is really unsafe. You If you don’t like the excitement and are willing to live in the mountains, there are mountains in Jingping, wouldn’t it be the same for our family to move there?”

But no matter how hard he and Song Yifan tried to persuade him, Zhong Bo remained indifferent, and directly closed his old eyelids, saying: "Needless to say, I have made up my mind, and I will not leave Beihuang."

Qiu Wanran and Song Yifan looked at each other, anxious and helpless for a moment, completely unable to understand what happened to Zhongbo's sudden stubbornness.

Zhongbo is the oldest in the Zhenshan Sect. He is already in his 70s. At first he brought Nie Weiyu, who was only a few years old, to live in this wild cloud mountain. Later, he took in the downcast Song Yifan, and then the homeless Li Xingyu , Ruan Ruan, Gu Yanyu, Qiu Wanran...

In the beginning, there was no sect, but later, when more people joined in the fun, it was named "True Shan Sect".

Although Zhong Bo doesn't like to be lively and doesn't usually appear in front of young people, he is indeed a generous and loving elder. It can be said that without him, there would be no Zhenshanzong today.

How did they manage to leave such an octogenarian alone in the deep mountains and old forests?

Song Yifan was thinking that it would be more effective to let Nie Weiyu and a few clever children persuade him, but before he took any action, Zhong Bo said: "There is no need to go to Weiyu and the others. If you can, please help me to invite Mr. Shen over here."

Song Yifan and Qiu Wanran were both taken aback.

Why did Zhong Bo suddenly want to see Shen Du?

Although full of doubts, Song Yifan found Shen Du and told Zhong Bo what he said.

At that time, Shen Budu was surrounded by several children from the Zhen Shan Sect, Ruan Ruan was lying in his arms and acting like a baby, Li Xingyu, Nie Weiyu and Gu Yanyu each held a small notebook, chirping and reporting to him the results of their cultivation during this period, And inquire about the various problems encountered.

The three brothers Xie Jianhuan, Fang Shaojun and Lu Danxu were sitting far away opposite them, looking rather miserable and concerned, looking at each other with tears in their eyes.

Lu Danxu looked at the opposite side, and then at himself: "Is it an illusion? Why do I think they are master's apprentices, and we are little cabbages that no one wants in the field??"

It's alright that he, Lu Danxu, can't compete with the big brother of the jealous vat, but he can't even compare with these little devils who came out of nowhere! ?

Fang Shaojun also felt a little uncomfortable: "Are they all new apprentices of Master?"

Although the talents are good, and the personality is also very good, but Fang Shaojun can't help but feel a little sour when he thinks that his master suddenly has so many young and smart apprentices.

He seemed to understand how the senior brother felt when he saw him who had just started...

"No." Xie Jianhuan said, "It's just a temporary guide."

Lu Danxu heaved a sigh of relief, and then looked at him suspiciously: "There's something wrong with you—you're not jealous?"

Xie Jianhuan said indifferently: "They are all children, so why bother."

Lu Danxu had an expression of "I believe you are the only ghost".

He didn't forget that once in the upper spirit world, the master met a little white stray dog ​​outside. The dog had some spirituality and insisted on following the master home. The master saw that he was cute, so he took him back.

As a result, after three days of raising it, the dog was gone.

Master thought it was the puppy who ran away by himself, and it was a pity that only Lu Danxu accidentally witnessed the murderous act of Xie Jianhuan, the mastermind behind the scenes——

Do you think Xie Jianhuan captured the dog and peeled it to make soup?No!A hundred times more cruel than this!

He hugged a little bitch to lure the little white dog out, the little white dog thought he had found a wife, and happily ran after the little bitch, but later it was shocked to find that the little bitch was already a dog wife The mother of the three milk dogs!

It was a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and it was so painful that it didn't want to live, and it left silently crying, and never believed in these sinister and cunning human beings again!

In summary, Xie Jianhuan is jealous of dogs, how could he let these children go? ?

Of course Lu Danxu couldn't guess what Xie Jianhuan was thinking.

When Shen Budu just came back to life, he thought that he had betrayed his relatives and almost lost his thoughts of life.Thanks to Zhenshanzong for saving him, and thanks to these lively and cheerful children haunting him, Shen Budu regained his energy.Therefore, Xie Jianhuan is very grateful to them.

Besides, they can't be entangled for a few days. After leaving the Northern Wilderness, Shen Budu will probably put them in a safe place, and then they won't be able to see each other often.

Lu Danxu looked at the calm expression of his elder brother, always felt that there was something wrong, and when he wanted to ask again, Song Yifan and Qiu Wanran came and told Shen Budu that Zhongbo wanted to see him.

Shen Budu was also a little surprised, but he still went to Zhongbo's residence as promised.

"Mr. Shen is here." Uncle Zhong stood up leaning on his crutches, "Thanks to you for taking care of the giant monster, otherwise these children would be in danger. You have a great kindness to the Zhenshan Sect, please be respected by this old man... "

As he spoke, he bent down with great effort, trying to bow to Shen Budu, but was stopped by the other party and helped him up.

"I said before, you don't have to be so polite. Everyone in the Zhenshan Sect is my friend, so it's no big deal to help." Shen Budu said, "I heard Brother Song said that you don't want to leave Beihuang with us. Why?"

Zhong Bo glanced at it, and said slowly in a low voice, "Because I am a sinner."

Shen Budu was a little surprised.

"Beihuang was originally a place of exile, and I am a person who committed a big mistake. I only deserve to stay here to repent for the rest of my life." Zhongbo sighed, "Yi Fan and the others are soft-hearted, thinking that I stay here to endure hardship, but they don't know that I have only If you stay here, you won't feel so uncomfortable in your heart."

Yi Fan persuaded him that the upper spirit world is so prosperous, it would be a pity if he didn't take a look.

However, he has seen the prosperity of the upper spirit world.

He saw more blood and crimes in the upper spirit world... so much so that he didn't dare to step into that place for the rest of his life, otherwise those sins deliberately covered in dust would roar in, and blood debts would scream in his ears Crying, no matter how many decades of his confession, he can't get rid of it...

Shen Budu looked at the gray and trembling face of the old man, frowned and asked, "Are you okay?"

Zhong Boqiang braced himself up and said with a wry smile: "Young Master Shen can also see that my old bones should have been buried in the ground long ago, but I can't let go of a few children... This time they can leave the Northern Wilderness with you , I am very happy, with you protecting them, I can rest assured... After all, Mr. Shen, you are not an ordinary person."

Zhongbo's eyes were yellow, and indeed he had the characteristics of an elderly person, but there was a shrewd and transparent light in his pupils, which made Shen Budu feel that the old man seemed to have guessed something.

But Zhong Bo didn't say it clearly, he just leaned on his cane and turned around to get a letter, and handed it to Shen Budu.

"……This is?"

The letter felt very thin. It seemed that there was only one piece of paper inside. The cover was already yellowed. There was no word on it, and it was unknown who it was addressed to.

Zhong Bo: "It's my confession, and it's also... the truth of some past events."

Shen Budu was startled slightly.

"I wrote this letter many years ago, but I never knew who to give it to. Now that I have met Mr. Shen, I have fulfilled a wish..." Uncle Zhong said bitterly, "I have no face or courage. This is the only way to tell you the past in person. If possible, I would also like to ask you not to open it immediately, and if you encounter any unsolvable confusion one day in the future, read this letter again..."

The old man couldn't go on.His face, as dry as old bark, showed deep self-hatred, cowardice, remorse and shrinking, and deep pain was hidden in every furrow-like wrinkle on the skin.

Shen Budu didn't know the secret that could torture an old man like this.

He didn't show any other expressions, but calmly put the letter away, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't read it right away, and I won't tell anyone else about it."

After a pause, he continued: "Although I don't know what the 'fault' you mentioned is, but you have lived here in seclusion for so many years and saved so many people. It may not be worth the merits and demerits, but you have accumulated good deeds."

"I hope..." Uncle Zhong showed a half-smiling and sad expression on his face, he turned around slowly, and returned to the depths of the gray hut with his cane.

-

Knowing that Uncle Zhong didn't want to leave, several children also tried to persuade him in turn, but they all returned in vain.Nie Weiyu was raised by Uncle Zhong, and she always treated him like her own grandfather. At first, she had the most intense reaction, even bluntly saying that if Uncle Zhong did not leave, she would not leave either.

Zhong Bo didn't blame her this time, but just asked: "Do you still remember what you told me when you were young, what is the thing you yearn for the most?"

"You said, it's a phoenix. You want to be like the legendary phoenix, flying freely in the sky and seeing different scenery in the world. Are you really willing to stay on this small mountain for the rest of your life?"

"Come on, kid. You don't belong here. The road you want...is ahead."

Yeyun Mountain fell behind, getting farther and farther away, gradually turning into a black spot.

Nie Weiyu looked back from the window of the carriage, and didn't look back for a long time.

Shen Budu looked at the little girl with red eyes, and said: "After leaving Beihuang this time, this piece of land will no longer be a forbidden area. When you grow up a bit, you can come back to visit him at any time."

Nie Weiyu rubbed her eyes and nodded firmly.

she will.

-

A few days later, the main city of the Northern Wilderness.

This is the largest and most prosperous city in the entire Northern Wilderness, and it is also the closest place to the Northern Wilderness exit.

At this time, in the largest inn in the city, a group of monks gathered around a picture stone, slapped their thighs fiercely while watching, and let out messy exclamations from time to time:

"It's changed... It's changed again! My God, what kind of weapon is this, I've never seen it before!"

"This reaction speed is amazing...Ah! Dead! This giant monster is actually dead like this!"

"One-on-one plus instant kill, it's too strong!! Who is this person, why haven't I seen it on the combat power list?!"

"You don't even know him yet? His name is Shen Du, but in the past six months, there have been so many deeds of the man of the Northern Wilderness! First, he sparked a fire in Pingyuan County, and became a sweet pastry for everyone to loot. When they arrived in Huzhou City, they overthrew the city lord and destroyed Jade Fairy, and also slaughtered three killers from the Blood Mist Building; then they arrived at Zhaojiabao, thinking that he was going to be planted in Zhao Ting's hands, but they didn't expect that they would directly demolish the whole castle. In the end, he killed the giant spider monster with his own strength, and I heard that even Fang Shaojun and Lu Danxu who came from the spirit world became sworn brothers with him!"

"Bah, what nonsense are you talking about?" In an inconspicuous place in the corner, a young man wearing a cloak whispered, "It's a big deal to be inferior."

The group of monks didn't hear it, and continued to discuss excitedly: "So powerful! Isn't he also a top player?"

"Of course, and I guess he can break into the top fifty! It's a pity that we can't see the combat power list with our own eyes. It may take a while for the news to come in."

"Don't care about the battle list, just looking at the picture stone, don't you know how powerful Shen Du is? The key is that he looks so young! Sigh, I am really envious of such talent!"

Praise and exclamation were heard endlessly, but some people sneered and expressed disdain for this: "How could it be as exaggerated as you brag? If Shen Du is really that powerful, why don't you come and try to challenge City Lord Han?"

"I must not dare." The other person sneered, "Han Cheng is a master of the [-]th in the Tianbang, and he has been looking down on Beihuang for many years, so how could Shen Du be his opponent? I, Jin, am here to make a bet with you all. , if that Shen Du can really beat Han Cheng, I will immediately cut off his head and give him a kick!"

"That's a good idea." A gentle voice suddenly sounded from behind the crowd, sounding smiling, "I bet."

The author has something to say:

Han Cheng (panic.jpg): Don't come here!

After playing Xiaohan, go to the next map!
