The Scenery of the North Chapter 15
The old man poured wine, grabbed a peanut and threw it into his mouth, then drank another glass of wine, smiled and said, "Let's talk about you first, boy."
Lu An nodded, stretched out three fingers and said, "Okay, then I'll talk first, Sebei City, the soldiers on the top of the city, Lu An."
The old man looked at Lu An and signaled to continue. Lu An shook his head.
"It's gone? That's it?" the old man rolled his eyes.
Lu An reached out to signal your turn. The old man touched his beard, stretched out his two fingers and said, "I understand, I understand."
When Lu An heard these two sentences, he was stunned and said, "You are cruel, you are even simpler than me."
The old man laughed and said, "You are a melon baby and you still want to trick me, so let's tell me honestly."
Lu An admitted his defeat and said, "My name is Lu An, I am an orphan. I am fourteen years old now. I was raised by my grandmother since I was young. I lived in this yard for eleven years. When I was eleven years old, I was taken to serve as a soldier and took over for three years in Saibei City. Now that the war is over, I will go home."
The old man nodded and said, "It's clear, it's okay, but you've been a soldier for three years at a young age and can survive. At your age, if you continue to be in the army, it shouldn't be difficult to be a general in ten years. Why don't you do it all right?"
Lu An stopped for a while and replied, "Maybe he's afraid of staying in that place. If you stay in that place, you may disappear one day."
The old man sneered and said, "Don't fool me, I'm not very capable, but I know some small skills, such as looking at photos."
Lu An looked at the old man in confusion.
"When I first met you, I realized that you are not an ordinary boy, with a vicious look on your face. You still have dozens of lives on your hands. This is also the reason why I want to kill you without saying a word, and the moves are fatal. For example, if you are at your age, people with so many lives on your hands are usually geniuses, and they may be geniuses like crazy. If you dare to hold back, I will suffer the loss, although you are very weak." The old man stared at Lu An and said.
After hearing this, Lu An asked back, "Oh, is that?"
The old man slammed the table and said, "That's not, I'm so careful. Look, you've just scratched a sword in the end. If it weren't for my clothes and ordinary swords, I would have suffered some losses that day, and it would be embarrassing to say it."
Lu An nodded and said, "Okay, I'll just treat this as a praise. Actually, you didn't use much force that day, did you?"
"Well? You kid are so evil. To be honest, how many people have fallen into your hands in the past three years?" the old man asked.
Lu An pondered for a moment and said, "There may be five hundred people."
When the old man heard this, he was a little surprised and pointed at Lu An and said, "You, you, you are so lucky."
Lu Anhan smiled and said, "I was forced."
The old man directly patted his thigh and said, "What a thrust, hahaha."
Lu An frowned and said, "There is nothing I can do. If I don't kill them, then I will die. I can only be sorry for them. In fact, whenever I think of them falling beside me, I am a little scared. Now, if you go down with one sword, you will lose your life. That feeling is actually very disgusting." After saying that, he sighed, picked up the wine glass and poured a glass of wine on the ground.
When the old man heard this, he nodded and said, "Yes, in this world, what is the least valuable thing, is that human life is the least valuable. A human life is just a number for those Taoist sects. No matter how many deaths they die, they will just listen, especially the lives of these ordinary people are the least valuable."
Lu An felt very strange when he heard this. Logically, this old man should also be a cultivator. For ordinary people, it is a high position. How could he care about the life and death of ordinary people?
The old man saw Lu An’s doubts and explained: “Are you born? You are the same when you are born, but the environment is different, and the results are different. Life is always equal. Even if you are a monk, you should be respected for every life. Although you can go to heaven and earth and compete with the sun and the moon, you must also understand the value of life.”
Lu An was stunned when he heard this, not knowing how to reply.
Regardless of Lu An's reaction, the old man continued to speak: "Everything that the monks enjoy now can be said to be based on the lives of ordinary people. The so-called great sects all look noble and extraordinary to the outside world. However, when they take a fancy to some treasures or touch their interests, they will have another face and instantly transform into sinister and cunning people."
Lu An was confused when he heard this. This old man was probably stimulated. He had either suffered a great loss and must have a deep hatred with those people, otherwise he would not have complained so much here. When Lu An thought of this, he suddenly felt that the old man and Zhao Le were a bit similar, and he couldn't help but laugh.
When the old man saw Lu An laughing secretly, he cursed: "Boy, what are you laughing at? You will encounter these things sooner or later."
Lu An also smiled and said, "I am an ordinary person, but I want others to pay attention to me. People are too lazy to pay attention to me, an ordinary person. I am not a person in your circle."
The old man calmed down a little, drank a glass of wine and said, "Don't say it too early. I used to be the same as you, no, I should be worse than you. When I was thirty, I was still an ordinary person, who was a farmer. This kind of thing is a legendary thing for me, but now you look at it, I am also a person in that circle, and I can kill you with one punch. Maybe you will also enter this circle in the future. Although you have no choice but to come into contact with it, you have to fight to survive. You always know this principle if you have hundreds of lives in your hands."
When Lu An heard what the old man said, he suddenly became silent. He thought for a while, looked up at the old man and found that the old man was looking at him with a smile.
Lu An asked, "Are you planning to lead me to practice?"
The old man shook his head and said, "No, why do you need to practice? This world is not entirely a cultivator. Martial arts are also very status. I mean, you are an ordinary person, and you have been exposed to things on this mountain at a young age. Whether you are in this industry in the future is just a matter of time. If you are much better than me, you are a little stupid."
Lu An asked back: "Will I become a person like you in the future?"
The old man nodded and said, "You can have such an opportunity at such a young age. Sooner or later, you will become a person like me in the future. Of course, you can go any step you can do is your own ability."
Lu An was stunned by the words. Did he already have such potential without realizing it? I wonder if Su Mu would be happy after hearing this?
"I said so many strange things to me when I first met. Do you have any intention?" Lu An asked with a smile.
The old man suddenly felt embarrassed, as if his thoughts were exposed, and the one who didn't come on his face turned red.
"Just, what purpose can I have for you? Am I like this?" the old man said viciously, "Besides, who knows if you, a stinky brat, is a piece sent by my enemy? Do you think I am such a stupid person?"
When Lu An heard this answer, he smiled and said, "You are as old as you, and have said so many messy things. I thought you wanted to accept me as your disciple. You haven't said who you are yet, but I just said it."
"Hmph." The old man poured himself another glass of wine, picked up the steamed bun and took a bite.
"You'd better tell me why are you here?" Lu An asked.
"Actually, I have been here for almost a month. Some of the guesses you had been right. I was indeed injured, and I was seriously injured. My strength was indeed damaged, but it was still more than enough to grasp you." The old man looked at Lu An and said.
Lu An nodded umm, signaling the old man to continue.
"About two months ago, I had just traveled to the vicinity of Ningguo, and then I heard about Ningguo Ling Mine from a friend. It is said that someone was planning a big deal, and then I planned to come and see the fun. Not long after I set off, I met several of my old opponents. They came to watch the fun, just like me. Then we started fighting after a disagreement. As a result, I was seriously injured by them, but they were not feeling well. One died and two injured." The old man said.
Lu An responded after drinking two glasses of wine, "The hero is amazing."
"Hehe, but their injuries are not as serious as me. After so long, their injuries should be healed almost the same, so I have been on guard against them during this period." The old man said to Lu An.
After drinking several glasses of wine, Lu An's face turned flushed and his head was a little dizzy. He almost couldn't hear what the old man said.
He asked in a daze: "Oh, it's so awesome, but your wine seems to be a little more powerful. By the way, what exactly are you calling, old man?"
The old man looked at Lu An who was a little drunk and said to him: "I understand, the surname Ming is Ming, the name Bai, and the spirit is carried, and can be free from separation, and can be gentle, and can be like a baby, cleanse the mysterious mirror, and be flawless, love the people and govern the country, and be inaction. The gate of heaven opens and closes, and be female, and understand the Sida, and can not know, and live in it, and live without having it, do not rely on it, and be born without slaughtering it. This is called Xuande. It is the Sida who understands it, do you understand?" Lu An was confused and replied: "What? You understand, your name is Sida." After that, he fell directly on the table and fell asleep.
I understood that I put down the wine glass, picked up the wine pot and poured it into my mouth, murmured: "It's great to drink 6 glasses at a young age. When I grow up, I'm probably a drunkard like me. Hehe, the old bull's nose, I hope the calculation is accurate this time, hahaha."
The next day, Lu An suddenly opened his eyes and found that he was still lying on the table. He actually slept on the table all night.
I touched my head, which was a little dizzy, and recalled what happened yesterday. There were only a few words in my mind. What is this called? Sida understands? What is the strange name.
"Are you awake?" The old man's voice sounded in Lu An's ears.
Lu An turned his head and saw that the old man was still sitting, and it seemed that he had been sitting all night.
"Is your wine fake? I've just drunk a few drinks, and I'm so drunk now that I'm so troubled." Lu An asked.
"You know, do you know how expensive this wine is? One pot is worth hundreds of taels of gold. You drank six cups of at least twenty taels of gold yesterday. Remember to pay it back to me." The old man said lightly.
When Lu An heard about this golden 100 taels, his face turned green. All he drank was money. Why didn’t he save the money and go to buy wine to drink? This old man is crazy.
"Mr. Sida? Since your wine is so expensive, what effect will it have? Otherwise, it will hurt you so much?" Lu An asked timidly.
Latou cursed with a green face: "I'm sure I understand, what Mr. Sida?"
Lu An said twice and said dryly: "This wine is a bit powerful. I didn't remember anything after saying so much yesterday. Hehe, understand, understand."
The old man blanched at Lu An and ignored him.
Lu An shook his hand and found that it was really intact. Just like he was not injured, Lu An clenched his fists and felt that his strength had become bigger.
Go out and go to the yard.
He clenched his fist and directly slaughtered a set of military fists, and exhaled a breath of turbid air. He felt refreshed and warm all over, as if even some of the hidden injuries left over the past three years had disappeared, and he seemed to have been reborn.
Lu An was so happy that he kept giggling, turned around and came to Mingbai, bowed deeply and said, "Mr. Ming, thank you for your life-saving grace."
Mingdai slowly opened his eyes and looked at Lu An and said, "I didn't react slowly. I know I'm here to thank me. I've checked your body before and found that even if I don't hurt you, you will only live to your thirties at most, and there are hidden injuries everywhere on your body. Now you are young, and those hidden injuries have not yet been reflected, and your body cannot feel them. In another three or four years, at that time, it will probably hurt half of your life when it rains."
When Lu An heard this, his heart trembled. As soon as the old man said this, Lu An knew it was true. When it rained, Lu An saw Hu Yong often grinning there and his hands and feet were often trembling.
And sometimes I feel this feeling, especially my hands and feet that have been seriously injured, and the feelings are very obvious. Maybe in a few years, it will really become what the old man said.
I went on to say: "The wine I drank yesterday was worth 100 taels of gold. The wine was made of the tailbone of the thousand-year-old tiger demon. The biggest effect is to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, eliminate hidden injuries, and have a good therapeutic effect on fractures. However, if you can drink six cups, I am a little impressed. Generally, people with your strength can pour at most two cups."
Lu An smiled, touched his head and said, "I would have had two more drinks if I had known it, so I couldn't waste it."
I understood and smiled, looked at Lu An with a strange expression, and then smiled bitterly: "This wine is indeed a good wine, and its effect is very obvious. We drink it as a normal to make wine, but for ordinary people like you, this wine will have another additional function, which can replenish the body. Don't you think it's a bit strange?"
Lu An didn't react at first, and was stunned for a moment, then as if he understood something, he grew up and said, "Is this aphrodisiac?"
"Normal you can only drink two cups, but you drank six cups yesterday and your body shouldn't have been eliminated yet. Do you really have no feelings? You have to reduce the fire, otherwise something will happen sooner or later." Asked with concern.
Lu An immediately said something, looked at it with a resentful look, ran directly to the river in the distance, and pierced it.
"Old bastard." Lu An's curse came from a distance.
