Chapter 167: The Most Evil Person, the Poor Creature

Even though he was a passer-by and hadn't seen him for a long time, he still had quite a lot to talk about. After the leading escort noticed the swordsman, he invited the swordsman to come and have dinner with him that night.

Beside the bonfire, the swordsman had a look of emotion on his face. He glanced around and found that many people were much older than they were ten years ago, and the escort team also had many new members.

The escort who leads the team is a young man who followed the team at the back ten years ago. Now he has become more mature and has reached middle age. The beard and cheeks cover his once delicate face.

He and the white-clothed swordsman he met by chance on the roadside talked about the past. The master who once led the team was seriously injured during a dart walk, and finally died. He carried the banner and shouldered the heavy responsibility, and then he learned that the dart walker, How difficult it is.

To appease people's hearts, money expenses, food, clothing and clothing all need to be taken care of by him. After one trip, he was exhausted both physically and mentally.

Therefore, he also contracted the problem of the old team leader. After every dart, he liked to drink, and he had to get drunk and drunk.

He also became an old drunkard.

He sighed repeatedly, what a pity, he had to stay awake while escorting, otherwise he would have thought that this mysterious swordsman, who had only met once and had a drink with his old master, would become extremely drunk, and not just this kind of unreasonable thing. A drink that doesn't hurt.

The swordsman smiled heartily, held up the wine gourd, and wished him good luck in his escort. It was rare to meet someone who loved wine. He proudly introduced to the other party his experience in drinking for a long time.

He said that he had invented several ways to drink it, and while he was talking, he demonstrated. He first took the bowl and chopsticks, poured wine into the bowl, passed the chopsticks over the wine, put it in salt, added a little salt, and then dissolved it. In the wine, drink it all in one gulp, one word...happy.

The leading escort took notes carefully, feeling a little itchy and wanting to return to the county seat as soon as possible so he could drink and have fun.

The swordsman held no reservations and taught the leading bodyguard a new move.

First take out a chili pepper, preferably from the southwest. The chili peppers there are spicy enough and have a special spicy aroma. Put the chili pepper in a wine bowl and squeeze it with chopsticks. Li Changxiao asked seriously, saying this The pepper must be stirred to get the juice out, and the pepper seeds inside must be crushed as much as possible to let the spiciness inside bloom as much as possible.

When you smell the aroma of chili pepper, take your time and pour a fingernail-deep amount of mature vinegar and stir it evenly with chopsticks. Finally, pour in the wine, stirring quickly to one side while pouring.

The lead escort's mouth watered when he heard this. Seeing the swordsman drink it all in one gulp, he yelled again and said that the spiciness of chili pepper can better dissipate the smell of alcohol. With a hiss of alcohol, it went straight to his forehead and made him feel comfortable all over. , drink it like this in winter, and the chill will disappear in two sips. It just so happens that winter is coming soon, so you can try it when you have time.

The escort was shocked by the swordsman's drinking method and was very eager to give it a try.

A night of talking.

The next day.

Early in the morning.

The two parties came to a fork in the road.

On the day of separation again, the leader of the escort agency waved to the swordsman, and actually said something familiar. He smiled and said to the swordsman that if there was a chance in the future, he would go to a nearby county to find him, and he would treat Li Changxiao to a drink.

The swordsman smiled, waved goodbye, and continued northward on his donkey.

...

Life is like countless encounters and separations.

Left the escort team.

It worked for another month.

It was at the turn of autumn and winter that the swordsman suffered from lack of money and had no choice but to work in a small town for several days. They were all scattered jobs. A day's work was not worth a few dollars, and the money manager was unusual. He was mean and deducted money from workers for various reasons, but evil people have their own way. The manager walked at night one day, and was beaten up by a gangster who didn't know where he came from. He lay in bed for a few days and got a new one. The deducted wages can be paid to the account in full.

After working for about a week, Li Changxiao weighed the money in his hand. Although the money was not much, it was enough to live comfortably for a while, so he asked the manager to quit his job. The manager looked regretful, but did not stop him before leaving. At that time, he gave him some lucky money.

After replacing the food and wine, Li Changxiao rode the donkey again and left the small town. The big donkey became more and more calm, and a twilight gradually appeared in his eyes. The life span of ordinary livestock is short. The life span of ordinary donkeys is around 20, but "beautiful and charming" "Mother" is not an ordinary donkey. It is born with high intelligence and is smarter than ordinary people.

Sadly, there are gains but also losses. From the moment he saw "Mei Jiao Niang", Li Changxiao knew that it was born with intelligence, but it was born with a short life. If ignored, it would be ten years old. It is already the time of death.

No one knew at the time that the swordsman had a kind heart. He saw that the stable was too short and the donkey was already halfway through its lifespan. It was also too intelligent and could understand joy and sorrow, so he bought it and showed it outside. Heaven and Earth, along with it, passed on a few more hands, the skill of extending the breath and nourishing the Qi. This is the skill that allowed the little donkey to play freely in the Beiyuan River.

Coupled with the swordsman's occasional use of spiritual energy to nourish himself, he has been able to survive until now, but he has already entered old age.

Walk on the road.

When passing by a narrow place with two mountains.

Suddenly, a man rushed out from the side in panic. He looked horrified and looked around. When he saw a swordsman riding a donkey, his eyes lit up and he ran over quickly, "Knight, knight, please stay!!"

he said in horror.

Li Changxiao asked Lao Donkey to stop and looked at this person, a flash of meaning flashed in his heart casually.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

"Knight, you must help me!" The man cried and explained the reason in detail. It turned out that he was passing by with his family and his family, but he was robbed by a group of charlatans and taken to another place. He escaped by chance. , ran all the way until he met the swordsman in white.

"Oh?" the swordsman asked, "How could such evil happen? Just take me there and I will be able to save your family."

"No, no, no." The man shook his head repeatedly, "Those bandits have been doing evil here for many years, and you are definitely no match for me. I beg you, heroes, to take me to a nearby town. Then I will sell the iron and pawn the house. I will risk my life to save my poor wife and children."

The man burst into tears as he spoke.

"Why bother? Just take me there. I have my own way." The swordsman said calmly.

After hearing the words, the man hesitated again, and finally decided to lead the way. After walking for about an hour, he gradually reached the dark grassy and inaccessible place.

On the way, the swordsman said with a smile: "The evil bandit is hiding it secretly."

"You said that if I had enough money and gave it all to those gangsters so that they could live a life of ample food and clothing, would they still commit crimes here and attack people passing by?"

The man said: "My hero, you are wrong. There is a kind of villain who is indeed forced by money and the world, but there is another kind who is born to be extremely evil people."

The swordsman added: "But I didn't see the so-called extreme evil. I only saw a few... pitiful creatures."

"Hmm...?" The man was about to say something more, but he felt a chill pass through him.

He touched his neck.

Not a drop of blood was left, because the blood was already solidified by the cold.

The Qingping Sword washed with the ice crystal marrow of the Ten Divine Essences, wiped across his neck neatly at that moment.

Only then did the man see clearly, covered up by drunkenness, was a cold murderous intent. He wanted to use the spell, but due to the loss of vitality, he gradually became weak and fell down.

"Come out." The swordsman said calmly, "Poor creatures."
