Chapter 380: The one who turned into a dragon might also be a loach
Fang Jie glanced at the corpse at his feet and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the madman was dead. He took a few steps back, and then saw two bugs coming out of the shattered eyes on Bo Chi's face. They looked like silkworms, but had the same long legs as a centipede. Fang Jie had never seen these before. Plant something.
He picked up a stone from the side and smashed the two insects into mud.
Then he walked slowly out of the woods.
"Find something easy to ignite and pile it up at the entrance of the cave Bochi is dead, and the wolf-faced apes inside become ownerless things. Once they go down the mountain, they will be a big disaster. Especially the biggest one, look It looks like even an armor-piercing awl might not be able to penetrate its fur. There shouldn't be any other exits from this cave, and if it's burned for a while, it will always be suffocated."
Big Dog and the others immediately took action and found a lot of wood to pile at the entrance of the cave. Chun Gu used a Damo knife to pick up Bo Chi's body and threw it on the firewood pile, then lit the firewood. Wet wood is not easy to ignite, so Fang Jie poured strong wine on Bo Chi's body and lit it, and the flame slowly began to rise.
When the thick smoke penetrated into the cave, you could clearly hear the howls of the wolf-faced apes in the cave. But these things are naturally afraid of fire and dare not venture outside. Ten people from the military camp stood guard outside with large swords to prevent anything from rushing out. The big dog kept adding firewood to the fire.
It smoked like this for more than an hour, and Fang Jie was not sure whether any of the disgusting things were dead. Everyone moved big rocks to block the entrance of the cave and then left.
Shen Qingshan looked at Fang Jie with questioning eyes, but Fang Jie just said in a low voice that he would talk about it later before going down the mountain first.
Everyone went down the mountain and left immediately after finding the horses.
It took two days to rush back to Yongzhou. Fang Jie asked people from the business camp to disguise themselves as a clerk and enter his residence. As long as your identity is not revealed, there is no need to hide the number of people around you. Yongzhou City is full of Luo Yao's spies, and it is almost impossible to hide it.
It was already the afternoon of the fifth day. If they didn't come back, Mu Xiaoyao might lose his temper and go find Luo Yao.
After returning home, he told them what Bo Chi had said. Both Shen Qingshan and Mu Xiaoyao saw a hint of relief on Fang Jie's face. Although this life experience was beyond everyone's imagination, Fang Jie seemed to feel much more comfortable accepting it than when he learned that he was Luo Yao's son.
Although the mind is no longer that child¡¯s, the body still is.
¡°I don¡¯t know if the couple in a small village near Yongzhou is still alive. Seventeen years ago, their child was stolen and never heard from again. They reported to the government in the hope of getting their children back, but who would have thought that the person who stole the children was Luo Yao, the left-wing general who was in the southwest and was known as the southern barrier of the Sui Dynasty?
The reason why the people from the Criminal Department and the Ouchi Guards Department couldn't find any clues after searching for half a year is that only Luo Yao has this ability.
Seventeen years have passed, and the biological parents may already be living in grief. In the dead of night, they would think of their children and murmur, "Baby, how are you now?" The couple held hands together, seeking the warmth that could comfort them from each other's coldness. The child is gone, but he is always in my heart. When I think of it, that innocent and childish smile always appears, so real.
How many nights have the couple hugged each other and cried.
Looking at the small quilt used to wrap the child more than ten years ago, I was speechless and choked up.
¡°Perhaps, after the people from the Criminal Department and Ouchi Guards Department withdrew, they had been killed and silenced by Luo Yao¡¯s men. Or maybe they have moved away from this sad place. The most depressing and ecstatic thing in this world is separation. What can be more sad and painful in separation than having a child taken away? The so-called love separation is not worth mentioning in front of this kind of sadness.
And Luo Yao actually plunged a hundred families into endless sorrow within a month.
"It's too much"
Mu Xiaoyao murmured: "I thought that the fact that he broke into my mountain gate and killed my sisters and teachers more than ten years ago was already a heinous crime. I didn't expect that he could do even more cruel things. This person's selfishness is too serious. It¡¯s so serious that people all over the world can die for him but he can remain indifferent.¡±
The big dog was silent for a while and then squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "He will bring retribution!"
Fang Jie shook his head: "I never believe in any karma and retribution in this world. They all say that God is fair In fact, God's fairness does not lie in giving justice to the world. Its fairness is just not to interfere in the affairs of the world. It is Watching the evil running rampant in this world, not paying attention or asking, this is its justice. It is the most senseless idea to expect God to punish the evildoers. It is the only medicine for the weak to comfort their souls. In fact, it is useless. usefulness."
"If the curse had worked, all the evil people in this world would have been killed long ago. If there was really retribution, Luo Yao would not still be dominant. There is actually not much difference between the human world and the animal world. The reason why tigers are called He is the king of beasts not because he is kind, but because he is ferocious.¡±
Shen Qingshan nodded slowly: "But I can be sure that this person will not end well in the future."
"That has to be done by someone"
Fang Jie stretched his body and said: "Now he still firmly believes that I am Luo Wu's resurrection. If you want to make Luo Yao fall from the top of a high mountain, my identity seems to be of some use."
"What are you going to do?"
Shen Qingshan asked after being stunned for a moment.
"He said he owed me."
Fang Jie smiled and said, "Then should I take back what he owes me as a matter of course?"
¡¡
¡¡
Sitting opposite Luo Yao, Fang Jie's face remained calm and calm.
When Fang Jie was having a talk in front of Luo Yao and Luo Qiu, the governor of Heping Commercial Road, he thought of himself singing Baimenlou with a group of old men in a small park during his spare time in his previous life. If that corner of the park was regarded as a small theater, then Fang Jie would be able to play anyone with ease. In comparison, the world is a big stage. From the small theater to the big stage, during the change of roles, the initial discomfort, confusion and hesitation, as well as the fear that once touched the soul, were gone. Only nine words were left in the seventeen years of life.
Young people can also be cunning and cunning.
¡°But Fang Jie also knew that the guy sitting opposite him was also a character, and on this big stage, the role seemed to have always been bigger than his own. But it doesn't matter. It's great to play opposite an old actor, isn't it?
"This is Nanyan's Pu'er."
Luo Yao pointed to the tea in front of Fang Jie and said: "The best tea in the world is Jiangdu Longjing, Wuyi Hongpao, Dali Pu'er Yongzhou was once the capital of the Shang Kingdom, so business has been developed over the years. Although Nanyan's Merchants fear me like a tiger, but they are even more reluctant to part with money. The Sui Dynasty was rich and powerful, and the people had plenty of money and food, so every big city was bustling. "
"I have a favorable location in Yongzhou, so I always drink new tea earlier than others. But the heavier the Pu'er, the better. I am a martial artist. I heard these words from the tea merchants."
Fang Jie took a sip and nodded slightly: "I heard that Pu'er is divided into raw and cooked. Raw Pu'er should not be drunk after three years. The older the ripe Pu'er is, the more valuable it is."
Luo Yao hummed and said: "What you are drinking now is something that has been preserved in the Shang Palace. It is said to be nearly a hundred years old. Peeling the tea and extracting the silk is a delicate job. Someone told me that the price of this cup of tea can be Changing Yongzhou to a small shop is a bit excessive, but it makes sense."
¡°Ordinary people may not be able to drink this kind of tea in one, five, or ten lifetimes.¡±
When Fang Jie heard this, his heart moved slightly, but his face remained calm.
Luo Yao looked at Fang Jie's face. After being silent for a while, he stood up and walked to the window. He pointed outside and said, "People in the world live in the same world and are in the same world. But when it comes to it, there are no differences between people at all. I don¡¯t live in the same world. I can drink a cup of good tea in a different shop, but the people in the shop are still struggling to make a living. Good luck also requires generations of hard work. "
"Can you believe this?"
he asks.
Fang Jie nodded: "Without a doubt."
"Some people are born with rich clothes and good food, and some people are born with insufficient food. These are two worlds under one world. To climb from the world of ordinary people to another world requires more than a firm will and hard work. Action. Although you have not been in Chang'an City for a long time, you should have seen many such people, just like loaches trying their best to squeeze into a pond and finally succeed in turning into koi. Yes, how many are there?¡±
Luo Yao shook his head: "Not one, because a loach is a loach and can never turn into a koi."
"You are now a first-class country boy, and your title is not high. But ordinary people regard you as a big shot, and the powerful regard you as a big shot.Like grass and mustard. You are already the luckiest among those who strive to climb, but you cannot succeed without relying on your own efforts for ten or twenty years. You also need to ensure that you survive the open and covert attacks, and survive the rejection of those koi fish. "
"Do you know the only way for the loach to convince the koi?"
"What?"
Fang explained the question.
"Make yourself stronger, bigger than any koi, and more ferocious. You can swallow ten or eight koi in one bite. Will those koi still exclude you? No they will only be afraid and hide. The farther away you are, the bigger the pool you occupy."
Luo Yao raised his chin slightly and said, "I'm just a loach, but I'm very big now."
Fang Jie frowned: "What do you want the general to tell me?"
Luo Yaodao: "What I mean is, if you want to go from that world to this world, there is a shortcut that is me. You are my son, if I give you a hand, you can easily stand on a high place."
Fang Jie fell silent.
¡°There are only legends about koi leaping across the dragon gate, but there is no story about a loach leaping into a dragon.¡±
Luo Yao said calmly: "But you should know that the reason why people say that it is carps that cross the dragon gate instead of loaches. It is because in the eyes of the world, everything that is high and high is beautiful. And how to define beauty? The powerful will define it! Now I stand On the street, if you say that loach is more beautiful than koi, there will be countless literati who will say that I am right and then find all the beautiful words and quotations to support me. "
"When the loach grows so big that it can't fit in the entire East China Sea Dragon, is it really scary?"
"Just stay."
Luo Yao said calmly: "Although I can't give you a justifiable identity, I can give you a beautiful and prosperous place!"
