Chapter 424: Not the Inner Demon

"I wish you all a happy journey.

One person suddenly stood up, smiling as if a spring breeze had just passed by, leaving a hint of brightness. He bowed repeatedly, saying auspicious words, and devoured the rockfish in his hand.

"I wish you all the best..."

Everyone ate the rockfish meat sweetly, and it was the happiest meal in many years. The ultimate taste enjoyment seemed to finally pull them out of the muddled land of fire.

They had left long ago. That piece of land in the center of the fire that was suppressed by the law of nature, but the despair and helplessness along the way always enveloped them.

They became sensitive and hysterical, easily angered by a word, and even more afraid of the inner demons they would encounter as soon as they came out.

But near the exit.

This meal of rock fish, if you want to trace it strictly, is just a very rare delicacy, just to satisfy the desire of the mouth.

Eating it is a pleasure, and not eating it is not a loss.

But at this moment, in the eyes of everyone, it is more like the end of suffering, the beginning of a completely bright future. The greatest comfort.

Those who have not experienced it find it difficult to understand this feeling. They endured hundreds of thousands of years of suffering, sinking in sleep, awakening, and pain.

Long-term loss and depression.

At the moment when they finally began to gain.

What kind of mood is it, happy, joyful? These are obviously not enough to describe, or rather, this feeling is colorful.

In addition...

It also triggered infinite reverie and expectations for the future.

Gamblers have been losing all the time, but suddenly they won once, and felt that they had discovered the secrets that others had not discovered, and mastered the means of winning money. So before the next gambling, they had already imagined themselves, getting a beautiful wife, having endless wealth, and dealing with dignitaries.

Aren't they gamblers?

They cheered, as if everything had been forgotten, and they felt that the real self was about to come back.

Inexplicably, they reconciled with the inner demon that they had feared before.

Someone shouted.

"Inner demon, if you can hear it, why don't you come and taste this rock fish. "

Wu Changkong shouted. Before he left the fire land, he had always been close to the inner demon.

But later, the inner demon showed its power. One word caused everyone's heart to tremble, and they had grudges in their hearts, and they walked further and further away.

In the end, it even caused hatred.

Just heard his voice fall.

A white-clothed person really came from the distance. This person was naturally Li Changxiao. He had no intention of following, but they met again.

"Look, it's really the inner demon. It can appear as soon as you shout."

"Is this inner demon real or fake? To be honest, sometimes I think he is the inner demon, but sometimes I think he is clearly the same person. It's so strange. "

...

In the eyes of everyone.

Li Changxiao walked straight over, Qing Nishang stared at him. When he came closer, everyone who was laughing all the time shut up again.

Their moods were changeable, sometimes they were extremely happy, and sometimes they were full of resentment.

It was hard to understand.

Qing Nishang handed a roasted rock fish to Li Changxiao. She was the only one who did this. Li Changxiao wanted to leave, but after seeing the rock fish handed over, he hesitated for a while before sitting with everyone.

He took a bite and the taste was naturally very good, better than what he cooked.

"I'm not a demon." Li Changxiao said when he had time.

Unexpectedly, he laughed.

"You are a demon. You like fish, but you still want to seduce me. "The ancestor picked up a piece of red-hot charcoal and threw it at Li Changxiao.

His own hand was burned red, but this kind of pain was nothing to them.

"Ancestor, calm down, calm down, anyway, you can leave tomorrow." Chao Mei persuaded.

Li Changxiao stopped talking and ate the grilled fish silently. Unfortunately, Zhang Mo and others did not have such a good fortune.

At this time.

Wu Changkong came over and sat directly beside Li Changxiao.

"Brother Wu is really brave and dares to face the inner demon!"

"We will leave tomorrow, what are you afraid of? In fact, now think about it, we are a little frightened."

The Hua Miao said one after another.

Wu Changkong ignored it, looked at Li Changxiao, smiled slightly, and slowly had the past style.

"Brother Li, drink a glass?" Wu Changkong asked.

"There is no wine. "Li Changxiao unscrewed the lid of the wine gourd and poured it vertically.

Not a drop was left.

Seeing this, Wu Changkong felt a little sorry and couldn't help but sighed.

"I'm quite interested in Li Xundao's story. I remember you didn't finish telling me last time. I wonder if you can continue? "Wu Changkong asked.

We met in front of the ruins of Wanbao Academy.

After the ancestor asked everyone to make friends with Li Changxiao, the inner demon.

Several people got close to Li Changxiao, drinking, chatting and bragging together, which was like-minded.

Wu Changkong was particularly interested in stories from the outside world, and often asked Li Changxiao to tell them while drinking.

In fact, most people did not believe what Li Changxiao said. They thought it was made up by the inner demon himself.

How could Li Changxiao not know it himself, but he didn't care. They wanted to hear it, so he told it.

Wu Changkong was very interested in Li Xundao's story. At that time, Li Changxiao didn't know much about this person, and only heard about some of his deeds.

He then added some spice to the story, telling about how he was born to be a calamity child, how he killed his desires and reached the path of sainthood, and then he bravely seized the fragments of the Heavenly Dao, started a reform era, and sought equality for the future generations.

Li Changxiao always had a vivid sense of picture when telling stories. He thought in his heart that if he became a storyteller, he would definitely be very popular.

Next time if he ran out of money, he could try it. Always being a thug or a laborer would make him look uneducated.

The story was told vividly.

"If there really is such a person, it would be great to meet him." Wu Changkong sighed softly.

He changed his tone and looked at Li Changxiao, "What about you, Brother Li?"

"Me? I'm just a person in the secular world, and my story is not so magnificent."

"If you want to hear about the common people, want to hear what kind of villagers Aunt Wang did last night, who stole the copper coins of Tofu Zhang on West Street the day before yesterday, and those who are skeptical want to hear which wife of the county master is the most beautiful, I may be able to tell you everything."

Li Changxiao laughed at himself.

"But I think you are not ordinary." Wu Changkong's expression suddenly became serious. He looked at Li Changxiao and lowered his voice: "Brother Li, you said you are not a demon, but I believe you."

"Hmm?" Li Changxiao's pupils shrank.

"So...is there any more wine?" Wu Changkong asked.

"..." Li Changxiao sighed and said: "Yes, it is top-notch wine."

"But it can't be known to others. We drink it secretly."

Wu Changkong laughed heartily, "Hahaha, Brother Li, you are also a wonderful person."
