At that time, I knew nothing about the sect that Uncle Li belonged to. In fact, if it hadn't been for the sudden appearance of the sect, I wouldn't have known that the sect still existed.
As for Uncle Li's sect that I know, currently, there is only one uncle.
But obviously, the man with the facial makeup in front of him is not his uncle. Just in terms of height, the two don't match up.
The man with the facial makeup was no more than 1.7 meters tall, but he still had to straighten his back and support himself.
But Uncle Master, I remember that even though he was stooped, he was still close to me who was 1.78 meters tall.
"A fellow disciple? No, no, no!" The man with the facial makeup shook his head and said with a contemptuous smile: "Li Jiangshui is just a lost dog that was kicked out by my master. He is not worthy of being my fellow disciple!"
"What!" I was shocked. I didn't expect that Uncle Li had such a past.
The man with the facial makeup didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack me. He walked up and sat on the stone bench in front of Wang Hu's house. He waved to the little boy behind me and said, "Boy, come here!"
The little boy ran over, and the man with facial makeup gently rubbed his head: "Good job."
"What about my reward?" The little boy smiled and stretched out his hand, waiting for the Facebook man's reward.
"Here it is." The man with the facial makeup let go of the hand that was rubbing the little boy's head. When his palm fell into the air, he suddenly reached forward with force, grabbed the little boy's neck tightly, and lifted him into the air.
The little boy kicked his feet wildly and struggled desperately, but he was unable to defeat the man with facial makeup.
boom!
The little boy's soul was shattered and exploded on the spot, his soul turning into wisps of smoke and scattering in all directions.
The man with the facial makeup took back his hand and patted it in disgust. Then he looked up with a smile and said to me.
"I asked him to cause trouble, but he played hide and seek with you. How can you be half-hearted when doing things for others? If you don't obey, you should be killed. Don't be nervous. Come, sit down. I have something to talk to you about!"
As he said that, the man with facial makeup patted the empty space next to him and smiled at me.
Smiling seems to be his fixed expression, but his smile gives people a chilling feeling, especially when paired with the oil-painted Peking Opera facial makeup.
Uncle Li once said that I am ruthless in my actions and stubborn in temper, just like him, but this is good or bad, it is a double-edged sword.
Uncle Li has suffered a lot in his life because of this personality. He wanted me to change this problem. Therefore, "A real man should be able to bend and stretch, and endure what ordinary people cannot tolerate" is what Uncle Li often warned me.
At the moment, the man with the facial makeup behaves so lightly and does not take me seriously. If it had been a few years ago, not even a few years ago, even half a month ago, I would not have been able to bear it.
I don’t know why, maybe it was the incident at Huangpizi Tomb that made my mind mature overnight.
Even though I had all kinds of reluctances in my heart at this moment, I still listened to the man with the facial makeup, got up from the ground, and sat next to him.
I thought that after I sat down, the man with the facial makeup would verbally insult me again, or that he would suddenly attack me and kill me just like he did to a little boy!
I never thought that he would actually tell me a story about Uncle Li and his school.
The story has to start fifty years ago.
At that time, the land of China was in turmoil.
The slogan of defeating the demons and demons resounded throughout the country.
Taoist priest Duangong and other metaphysicians were tortured in that turmoil.
At that time, Hongmen was just an inconspicuous sect in the world of metaphysics.
In the sect, including the big yellow dog who guards the home, there are only about ten people in the sect.
One day, there was a knock on the door, and outside the door were two children dressed as beggars.
The child wanted to beg for food. However, at that age, all the sects related to metaphysics and without official endorsement were short of food due to the catastrophe. Even their own people were not full, so how could they give free food to beggars?
The disciples wanted to drive them away, but the two were already too hungry to walk. When the disciples tried to drive them away, they found that they had fainted on the ground.
At this time, the master appeared. Seeing the tender faces of the two children, who were less than sixteen years old, he felt pity and admitted them into his sect.
Since then, the two brothers Chen and Li ended their wandering days and settled down in Hongmen.
But even though they grew up in the same village, their views on metaphysics are quite different.
Beggar Chen, who has been with the master for less than half a year, has reached the true level of entry into metaphysics.
But it took two years for the beggar named Li to reach the age of half a year old.
As time goes by, with the end of that catastrophe, Hongmen is back on track again.
Although the gap between the two brothers Chen and Li has not gradually widened due to Li's diligent study and training, there is still an insurmountable gap.
By the time Chen was twenty years old, he had become the disciple of the headmaster and had a bright future.
Among the losers in this election for top disciple was Li, who had joined the disciples together with Chen.
This is the case for some people. You and I are both down and out, so we can call ourselves brothers and have a good time over drinks.
But if one day, one of you achieves enlightenment and ascends to heaven, leaving me alone still in despair, I will not be able to balance my heart.
Therefore, Li and other fellow disciples in his sect set up a scheme to make him commit a huge mistake, even to the point of expelling him from the sect.
But after all, Chen is already the eldest disciple. In the master's sect, he is inferior to one person and above "ten thousand people".
The boss felt that Chen would not be so reckless, so he sent someone to investigate secretly. At the same time, Chen himself also found out the result of the matter.
That night, Chen confronted Li, who told him about the injustices he had suffered over the years.
All the reasons are attributed to his stupid talent. This is God's injustice to him.
"Why? Why would God do this to me!"
"I don't accept it! Over the years, I have worked ten times and a hundred times harder than you, but what can I do?"
"I still can't get the master's favor. From the beginning to the end, he only values you."
"No matter how hard I study and practice, I can only become your foil in the end!"
"So, I have to do this! Sorry, brother!"
Li is two years younger than Chen, so he always calls Chen: brother.
But the words "Brother" that night were the last words Li said to Chen in his life.
Early the next morning, Chen personally found the leader and took all the blame.
Between himself and Li, Chen chose to sacrifice himself to help Li!
But the leader has actually investigated the truth of the matter.
He deliberately concealed it because he just wanted to see Chen's reaction and regard this incident as a test for him.
The result was naturally that Chen passed the test, while Li was expelled from the school.
On the day he left the school, Li stared at Chen with red eyes.
He believed that it was Chen who betrayed him, who ruined his life and everything about him.
Chen, don’t argue with me.
At this point, the man with facial makeup laughed at himself and said.
"I thought I had done a good job."
"I always think about my brother, even at the expense of myself."
"But he stubbornly believed that everything was my fault and that I was the one who harmed him."
"It's also my fault. I was too young at the time and valued brotherhood more than anything else."
"Now that I think about it, what did I do for that? He harmed me, why should I take the blame for him? I should have slapped that evildoer to death!"
"So now, have you figured it out?" I asked, feeling the faintly ferocious aura emanating from the man with the facial makeup.
He nodded and said: "Yes! I have figured it out. I came out originally to take his life."
"I never thought that I was a step too late and actually let him die first. I can't whip the corpse, right? How boring would that be?"
"But fortunately, there is still you. This is his adopted son. I think he has gone through all the troubles to keep you alive. If I kill you, will it cause him more heartache than killing him?"
?”
As he finished speaking, a terrifying murderous intention erupted from the man with the facial makeup!
My scalp was numb, my hairs stood on end, and a feeling of imminent death enveloped my whole body!
