Lin Xiaotian lay with his limbs spread out, his round body in a large shape, lying in an open space overgrown with weeds, staring blankly at the stars in the sky.
"well……"
Thinking back on everything that happened today, the young man couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
He had heard the word trash a lot since he was a child. After all, others had used this word to describe him more than once, but he had never cared too much about it.
It wasn't until his father said it without hesitation that he felt as if he had been stabbed hard in his heart.
"Trash, I don't want to be called that either..."
Putting his hand on the back of his head, Lin Xiaotian pursed his lips bitterly as he recalled his hard training experience day and night over the years.
No one wants to be a waste, but he has no talent for cultivation.
His ability to sense vitality is worse than others, and his ability to absorb vitality is also slower than others.
What others can achieve after one hour of practice, you need to practice for two to three days or more to achieve the results of others.
In fact, this qualification is not suitable for cultivation at all. Living an ordinary life as an ordinary person is your destiny.
But this path is completely opposite to my father's wishes.
Ever since he could remember, what his father said the most was to practice hard and not worry about other things.
As for him, although his father often drinks alcohol, he is still very caring about himself when he is not drinking. Otherwise, he would not let go of his arrogant self-esteem and do odd jobs in the town to earn money to support his cultivation.
Unfortunately, reality is cruel after all.
I tried my best, but in the end I still couldn't cross the gap formed by talent and qualifications, and fell deeply, miserably.
All the efforts made in the past have been ruthlessly denied and trampled on today.
For losers, no one cares about the process of their efforts. This is an eternal truth.
"Gu..."
An inappropriate sound came from his stomach, suddenly interrupting his thoughts.
The body's hunger will not disappear just because of a bad mood, let alone a person with his body shape.
He groaned, put his hands back on the ground and sat up.
Lin Xiaotian felt helpless as he patted his lower belly, which seemed to never shrink.
I was in such a hurry to go out in the morning that I didn't have time to eat, and now I was kicked out by my father. After all, I haven't eaten anything for a whole day.
Suddenly, the tip of his nose moved, and he vaguely seemed to smell an alluring aroma.
Immediately, a slender white jade hand holding a steaming oil paper bag suddenly dropped from above his head and appeared in his sight.
The aroma of food emanates faintly from the bag.
"Haha, dumb girl, you are here..."
Suddenly turning around and seeing the girl standing behind him, Lin Xiaotian had a smile on his fat face.
The girl has elegant eyebrows and wears a piece of crystal red jade on her chest, which shines softly under the moonlight, making the girl look like a blooming red lotus, touching people's hearts.
Nodding and smiling, the mute girl had two shallow dimples appearing on her fair and pretty face, and then handed the oiled paper bag in her hand to Lin Xiaotian.
Lin Xiaotian was about to take it, but his hand stopped in mid-air.
"Well, I didn't bring any money."
He scratched his head in embarrassment, but saw the mute girl put down the oil paper bag and made a few gestures with her slender fingers.
"Selling the rest today?"
Having been with the girl for many years, he already knew the meaning of the girl's gestures. When he saw the girl smiling and nodding, he took the oiled paper bag and opened it.
When he lowered his head and looked at it, he saw that the buns inside had bright and shiny skin. They had obviously been made half an hour ago.
At that time, it was also the time when he was kicked out of the cabin by his father.
"This..., thank you, Nizi."
After a pause of words, Lin Xiaotian was touched in his heart and knew what the girl meant. He immediately stopped being pretentious and took out the buns and started eating them hungrily.
During this period, I beat my chest several times and almost choked.
The mute girl reached out and pinched his fat face to signal him to eat slower, then took out a bamboo tube filled with water from her waist and handed it to him.
Gudu Gudu...
"belch……"
Taking the bamboo stick, Lin Xiaotian raised his head and drank the water in one gulp, then let out a long burp, which made the girl chuckle.
The girl's smile was silent, but refreshing, and made the gloom in Lin Xiaotian's heart dissipate a lot.
【are you OK?】
When Lin Xiaotian came to his senses, the mute girl sat opposite and made gestures with her hands.
"It's pretty much what I expected, except my dad..."
Lin Xiaotian smiled bitterly and shrugged.
The mute girl just had a broken voice and pulse and couldn't speak, it wasn't that she couldn't hear, so she didn't need to make gestures.
[Don’t worry, Uncle Lin will think of it. If you can’t practice in the future, you can also learn to make steamed buns from me.]
After making another gesture, the girl's delicate fingers pinched Lin Xiaotian's fat face again.
"Hey, I'm afraid I'll eat them all before I learn it."
Lin Xiaotian smiled calmly, and every time he "chatted" with the girl, no matter how disappointed he was, he would disappear inadvertently.
…
The two chatted for a long time. The girl stood up and made a gesture to help Grandma Wang make noodles.
After walking a few steps, he came back and pinched Lin Xiaotian's fat face, then turned around and left with a calm smile.
After watching the girl go down the mountain, Lin Xiaotian touched his fat face that still had the warmth of the girl's fingertips, looked up at the silver moon in the sky and smiled innocently.
"Well, at least it's not nothing."
But soon, his smile stopped abruptly, and then turned into... panic!
"Huh? Is there something wrong with my eyes?"
He rubbed his eyes and saw a tiny red dot appearing inexplicably on the silver moon hanging in the purple night sky, and the red dot was gradually getting bigger.
When I got closer, I realized that it was not a red dot, but a cluster of glowing red light.
But this is not important. What is important is that the light group seems to be heading towards the top of the mountain where he is!
Suddenly, he suddenly remembered a legend about "Red Demon Fetching Birds" that he heard from the old people in the town when he was a child.
It is said that every night when the moon is full, an evil spirit called the red demon will turn into a ball of red light and come out to hunt, specifically hunting men who are alone in the wild.
Those men would fall into a coma after being captured. When they woke up the next day and opened their pants, they would find that their "bird eggs" were completely missing!
Of course, this is just a way for old people to scare boys who are naughty and don't come home at night.
But Lin Xiaotian was already timid, and when he saw that the moon was so round tonight, his heart suddenly began to beat, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.
call out……
But as soon as he retreated, the red light in the sky suddenly erupted with a sharp sound of breaking wind, and rushed down violently.
It seems that Hongmang’s target is really him! This chapter has been completed!
