Chapter 219 Ugly God
It paused, slowed down its pace, and jumped lightly to a high place, looking down from above.
This is the school that Yuan Hao built for Wu Gui, which is specifically used for the princes and princesses in the palace to learn alchemy and practice.
As for the emperor himself, Wu Gui would come to teach him personally.
Today is the day when the princes and princesses come to school, but now these little ancestors are not staying in the school to listen to the class quietly. It seems that it is their break time. They are gathered in a group, scolding and beating someone in the crowd.
Bullying the weak...
It was already accustomed to this kind of phenomenon, but it was attracted by the child's words just now.
"Throw it into the alchemy furnace and boil it into a pot of water!"
It only knows that humans eat the meat of some animals, and some homeless people even eat cat meat.
But it doesn't know that humans also cook and eat their own kind.
Just thinking about it... makes me sick.
It was hesitating whether to dodge or not, when suddenly at this moment, there was a commotion among the crowd, and it seemed that the child who was surrounded began to resist and finally rushed out.
Under the glaring sunlight, a man with deformed limbs crawled out of the crowd with strange movements.
The child was so skinny that his bones were visible, and one of his legs seemed to be extremely deformed, making it difficult for him to walk. If he wanted to escape quickly, he had to use all four limbs to run.
It stood on the high wall, staring blankly at the strange and deformed figure running away, as if it was looking at a little monster running out of the woods.
Is this... a person?
"The ugly princess... the youngest daughter of the current emperor, killed her mother at birth. The emperor... although everyone says that the emperor neglected the child because he was too sad and didn't even want to give her a name. But I, my dear, have my own opinion."
When I went back and told this to my dear, he looked very serious.
It followed the starling's question and asked, "What's your opinion?"
"Just think about it, he wanted to become an immortal so much, he must have felt that his bloodline was superior to others, but in the end he gave birth to such a... such a child who is neither human nor ghost, he must have felt extremely disappointed."
Myna winked and said, "Just like the concubines in the palace who claim to love the emperor during the day but secretly have affairs with eunuchs and guards at night, many relationships in the palace cannot be counted. If the concubines are like this, the emperor is no different."
It nodded, as if it understood something.
I used to think that humans are superior to animals, but now I suddenly feel that it is just like that.
Later, it gradually figured out the way to Wugui, found a hiding place, and learned from him day after day.
During this period, he saw the ugly princess being bullied countless times and he would run away quickly.
It's just a cat and has no ability to interfere in human affairs.
Even if it has the ability, it won't meddle in other people's affairs.
Experience tells it that meddling in other people's affairs will lead to bad consequences. If it can't even take care of itself, how can it take care of other cats?
Apart from this little episode, most of the main themes that were stolen were very fulfilling.
Wu Gui has several disciples.
Wu Gui himself taught the emperor the cultivation courses.
It is these disciples who usually teach the princes and princesses.
It didn't dare to go to Wugui's place to listen easily. The only things it could eavesdrop on were the classes of these disciples.
The more you listen to it, the more you can hear the differences.
The teaching abilities of these disciples varied in depth, and it liked listening to the lessons of a female disciple named Ling Shan the most.
Ling Shan's voice was pleasant and gentle when she explained, and her explanations were very thorough and easy to understand.
But the princes and princesses in the school did not think so.
Because the ugly princess only appears in Lingshan's class.
In the classes of the other disciples, the ugly princess was locked up somewhere unknown.
Ling Shan would always loudly rebuke the princes and princesses for such behavior, completely ignoring the advice of other disciples.
The other disciples had always believed that the emperor did not value this little daughter at all, and even hated her. So the princes should just turn a blind eye to her actions, and there was no need to offend those powerful people for a discarded child.
But Lingshan just wouldn't listen and would bring the ugly princess in every time.
It always felt that Ling Shan had a kind of energy, which made her look very different.
I can't really tell what the specific difference is.
However, because of this energy, it prefers to listen to Lingshan's class.
Every time it understood something and saw the puzzled expressions of the princes and princesses in the school, it would think that it was extremely powerful and would definitely become an immortal in the future.
But it was really unbearable when it couldn't understand what was being said. In addition, it was often hungry and full. When it was too hungry to bear it, the only thing in its brain was dried fish, and it had no intention of listening at all.
Every time this happens, I feel how good it is to be a human being.
Look at those princes and princesses, who are presented with delicious meals every day. Unlike it, they have to run up and down and rush around for a bite of food, and the time for cultivation is greatly compressed.
When I really couldn't find anything to eat, I would inevitably go hungry for a day or two. Once I was so hungry that I couldn't help but run to the small kitchen to steal some food. Unexpectedly, I was seen by someone. Not only did I not get to eat, I was also chased and beaten and scolded for a long time.
When I finally got away, it was night and a rainy day, so it was pitch black everywhere. There was a strong wind and I had no idea where I was. I only smelled a faint scent of incense and judged that it seemed to be a place for sacrifices in the palace.
It was covered with wounds and had been caught in the rain. The next day, it had a high fever and was hiding in the shadow of a corner, dying.
Once upon a time, a cat was wandering around and had experienced many life-threatening situations. Perhaps it was lucky, and was able to escape danger with its clever brain.
But now, several days of hunger, injuries all over the body, and a confused mind caused by a fever did not allow it to think much.
It lay in the shadow and could only hear voices of people laughing in the distance. The sun's dazzling light in the sky made it feel as if the whole world was shrouded in colorful lights, which seemed so unreal.
There is always sunshine after the rain, but there is not always a happy ending after a tragedy.
It thought to itself with self-mockery.
This was the first time it felt so unlikely.
It's unlikely to survive.
What would it be like to die?
Those princes and princesses who practiced every day were always searching for the way to immortality.
Human beings are greedy.
Even though their lifespan is much longer than that of other animals, they are still not satisfied.
Thinking of this, it tried its best to repeat the cultivation formula it had learned, but its health did not show any improvement.
It was obviously faster than what humans understood at that time, so why did it have no effect?
This time, it finally lost the confidence it had in its cultivation talent at the beginning.
Faced with illness and death, it is bound to feel despair.
"Creak" sound.
It seemed that the door next to me was opened.
No one knew who was in the door. If they found it at this moment and wanted to beat and scold it again, it would not have the strength to run away.
Aren’t stray cats really either starving to death, dying of disease, or being beaten to death?
No matter which one it is, it’s not pleasant.
I heard footsteps behind me, and in the interval before death, my thoughts began to run wild.
People in the palace often come here to worship the gods. Can it also pray for blessings from the gods?
God, my birth was already so tragic, could you please bless me this time and let me continue to live?
A large shadow enveloped it, and it felt like someone was blocking the sunlight around it. The world suddenly fell into darkness, but it was finally no longer surrounded by the colorful halo and seemed no longer so illusory.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was still somewhat sober, it was able to take a good look at the person's appearance.
A face as thin as a skeleton, a pair of eyes with mostly white reflecting its extreme weakness, with a hint of water flickering in them, and cracked lips opened to reveal a mouthful of uneven teeth, which opened and closed without anyone knowing what was being said.
It couldn't hear clearly anymore, its mind was in a fuzzy mess, and it was still thinking with its eyes closed, this god looks really scary...
