Arrogant little peasant

Chapter 208 Reasoning With The Old Man

In the past few days, Zhang Shu has not lived comfortably. One is that there are so many things outside that he needs to solve it by himself, and the other is that Tang Chunyuan took action.

But Zhang Shu didn't know who Tang Chunyuan was, and he didn't even know who she was. The only thing he could know was that the black hands hidden behind the scenes finally started to move.

Zhang Shu was distraught, and it was the first time he encountered a headache caused by too much accumulation of mental power, which made Zhang Shu speechless, and couldn't explain what was going on.

But he still decided to go out for a walk. The night in Haicheng is very beautiful. Although the sky is still covered with a thin layer of fog, it does not seem to hinder the beauty of the city, just like the shadows covered by the face of a beautiful woman. The veil, no matter how you look at it, is refreshing.

Zhang Shu couldn't help exhaling, and then yelled loudly towards the empty space ahead. Unexpectedly, there was an old man on the bridge where Zhang Shu was standing, to be precise, he was an old beggar.

The old beggar yelled impatiently: "Why are ghosts crying and howling wolves at night!"

However, when the eyes of the old beggar focused on Zhang Shu, he couldn't help being taken aback, and Zhang Shu was also taken aback: "It's you..."

As if seeing a savior, the old beggar stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Shu's sleeve: "The old man said, you and the old man are really destined. You still don't believe it, you should believe it now, right?"

Zhang Shu blushed, remembering that day at the market, that bad old man insisted on telling his fortune.

"You don't always tell your fortune at the vegetable market, why do you come here to beg?"

Unexpectedly, the old beggar's eyes were bright: "Fortune-telling? That's not what I should do. If you do the calculation, the cause and effect will be on me. If you don't calculate it well, the karma will be repaid on me. Boy, tell me, I will Should it be counted? Or should it not be counted?"

Zhang Shu smacked his lips: "According to what you said, it really shouldn't be counted."

The old beggar smiled slyly: "Since I met you, I might kill you too. I haven't eaten for two and a half days. How about you, boy, invite me to eat a bowl of wonton noodles?"

Zhang Shu nodded. To such an old man, he actually had no resistance. Since the old beggar opened his mouth and he had known him before, Zhang Shu naturally would not say anything, and brought the old man to the road. At the side stall, "Boss, here you are..."

Before Zhang Shu could finish speaking, he heard the old man yelling: "If there is any good thing, just go up! There is a fat pig today!"

Zhang Shu said angrily, "You are the fat pig!"

The old man chuckled and didn't make excuses. He just bit open a bottle of beer with his teeth, then poured out a glass, drank it in one gulp, and then wiped his mouth: "Boy, I know why this old man Follow you all the time?"

Zhang Shu was confused: "That's right, why are you always following me?"

I just heard the old man chuckle: "Hey, since you appeared in the market, I have been paying attention to you, but I found out that I can't see through your fate!"

Zhang Shu was very surprised: "So you will follow me?"

Before he had that special ability, Zhang Shu believed in fate, but when he got the Black Iron Ring, Zhang Shu no longer believed in fate.

The gears of fate are changing. From the birth of Zhang Shu to the upheaval of Haicheng City, it can be said that everything has an absolute relationship with Zhang Shu. If this is the case, why does Zhang Shu believe in the illusory fate?
However, the old man's next words made Zhang Shu wake up like a dream: "Da Yan's number is 49, but one is the only one. Zhang Shu, you are the last variable. No matter what, the old man can't see clearly."

Immediately, seeing Zhang Shu looking into the distance, looking at the roadside stalls and the people living under the lights and feasting, he couldn't help feeling a burst of sadness and joy in his heart.

"Old man, is it because of this that you have been with me for so long?"

The old man chuckled: "What you said is absolutely right, this old man has been with you for so long because of this, boy, I think you are also a cultivator, but your progress is too slow now, if not, this old man will help you how are you?"

Zhang Shu never imagined that the old man who looked like a beggar in front of him had such great ability, so he couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "What did you say?"

Seeing the old man's beef buns stuffed into his mouth thoroughly, chewing it full of flavor, he looked at Zhang Shu with a half-smile and said: "Boy, you only have a destiny, but your foundation is not yet firm, the old man knows The thing in your hand is a treasure, and this old man will not covet this kind of treasure, lest it is not worthwhile to be contaminated with karma."

"But the old man still wants to tell you something, the foundation is not solid, and it cannot support your ambition to turn the world upside down!"

Zhang Shu also didn't care about arguing with the old man at this moment, and stood up abruptly: "Mr., please forgive Zhang Shu for being blind!"

The old man waved his hand and bared his big yellow teeth, "You boy, you could pee in the same pot with the old man before, why are you so restrained now?"

Zhang Shu scratched his head in embarrassment, and couldn't help but smile: "Senior, you can follow me from today on."

Unexpectedly, the old man stretched out three fingers.

Zhang Shu didn't understand what it meant, "Old man, what's the meaning?"

Just look at the old man's sly smile: "This old man has been contaminated with the three in the number of Dayan in his life, and he is only close to three, so what the old man wants is three pots of wine and three catties of meat per day, how about it?"

Zhang Shu said with a cheerful smile, "Since the old man said it, why not? With three pots of wine and three catties of meat, no matter what, I, Zhang Shu, can support the old man."

The old man looked at Zhang Shu and smiled: "Boy, this time you made a lot of money!"

But Zhang Shu looked at the old man, but he sneered slightly in his heart. Come to me, you old man still think about not teaching me?
The old man seemed to understand Zhang Shu's meaning, and he couldn't help sighing slightly: "There is only so much I can teach you. The old man is very skilled in mystical skills, but I don't know where to use it. , I have spent my entire life and have not been able to find an opportunity.”

Zhang Shu looked at the old man who started to put on an air of superiority just after wolfing down his food, and couldn't help feeling contemptuous: "When you're full, you start talking nonsense."

The old man was very interested, he couldn't help looking at Zhang Shu and said, "Zhang Shu, do you know where your biggest dilemma is?"

Zhang Shu's eyes were fixed, and then he said, "Someone should be eyeing my black iron ring."

"Then do you know why those people stared at your black iron ring? Those people suffered heavy casualties in the past two days. What do you think their purpose is for staring at your black iron ring?"

Zhang Shu said lightly: "Maybe it is to communicate with the Void God Realm? Or maybe you want to use the resources in the Black Iron Ring to do something?"

The old man smiled at Zhang Shu: "Boy, you are wrong. They use the black iron ring to change the world. Boy, have you heard of Bai Yujing?"

Bai Yujing!Zhang Shu's heart trembled suddenly, how many legends have been said about Bai Yujing since ancient times?As long as it is contaminated with the words Bai Yujing, it also represents the destruction and dilapidation of the world. Such detached things are not allowed to exist in the world.

Throughout history, no matter whether it is Xanadu, Baiyujing, or the snow-capped mountains and flowers that have been formed in the Tang Dynasty, without exception, there is no trace left in history, which is the key to explaining the problem .

People don't want such a magical and mysterious place to exist in the world, and Bai Yujing has become a synonym.

That is where the sages or deities live.

"Bai Yujing? Old man, are you right?" Zhang Shu couldn't help but said to the old man with hesitation on his face.

The old man chuckled: "Why, brat, don't you believe it?"

Zhang Shu rolled his eyes: "If you didn't tell me these words, I would probably believe them, but since you told me so much, I don't believe them anymore."

The old man looked at Zhang Shu and didn't try to defend himself, he just smiled and said, "You brat, there will be a day when you believe in it. What I want to tell you today is precisely this Bai Yujing. Not only that, but I also want to tell you that your The black iron ring is inextricably linked with Bai Yujing."

Zhang Shu gave the old man an angry look, "Isn't it Chiyou's Lord of the Rings? You pretend I don't know?"

The old man shook his head faintly: "Chiyou's Lord of the Rings is just a title, but in fact this thing has another name, it is called the Shennong Ring."

"Shen Nong Jie?" Zhang Shu was taken aback, "What's going on here?"

"In the past, before the war between the Yellow Emperor and Chi You, the Chi You clan was extremely fierce and possessed the talents of humans and demons, but there was one thing they would never get, that is, the perception and utilization of all things in the world. There is often no grass growing in the places, and it is very desolate, which is why Chi You is determined to take the Shennong ring."

"And the ring in your hand is the Shennong Ring, which is also the Chi You Ring in your mouth. It has the magical power to revive all things, and it is endless and full of vitality."

After the old man finished speaking, Zhang Shu was taken aback for a moment: "So it turned out to be like this?"

The old man nodded: "Yeah, who would have thought that the predecessor of the Lord of the Rings would be the Shennong Ring? Brat, your cultivation is already at a bottleneck, and the mere aura of the Five Elements is probably enough to make you a master." Queue, you have to feel life and understand some truths from the vitality, so that this ring can play its role!"

Zhang Shu nodded ignorantly, looking at the old man, he couldn't help but have reverence in his eyes, "I don't know what kind of profound art the old man is practicing?"

The old man got up lightly, pulled Zhang Shu away from the small stall, and then got into the car, only to see that the old man really looked like an outsider at this moment, with a faint white breath in his hands.

"In my life, this old man has many and complicated skills, and I don't specialize in them. Only this insight into the wonders of the world is still a glimpse of the door."

After the old man finished speaking, Zhang Shu said "Oh", and then saw a strange look on the old man's face, "Boy, tell me, why do you still lie dormant in your hands with such a great ability?" here?"

Zhang Shu smiled bitterly: "What's wrong here?"

The old man smiled lightly: "It is true that you are considered a person in Haicheng now, but that is not enough. Don't disappoint the black iron ring in your hand. Sometimes people are dominated by fate, but more often In fact, people want to be in a high position and look down on the world, but it is not because of their own destiny, but because of a kind of help to promote it.”

Zhang Shu nodded, and listened to the old man's words: "The black iron ring is your destiny. What you have to do is to protect the comprehension clan! Even if you can't let him see the light of day again, don't let it be dusted." !"
