What is it like to be a saint?

Chapter 164 The story of the human race and the water race
Riding a big buffalo, I came to the willow tree.

Xu Ji sat under the willow tree, and Niu'er also lay down beside him.

Xu Ji patted the cow lightly, and the cow immediately cried out.

Moo!
The cow's cry echoed throughout the field.

The willow branches are yiyi, and countless clear lights fall down.

The children raised their heads one after another and temporarily put their homework aside.

A group of aquariums that were cruising along the river bank also stopped and came to the bank one after another.

"Tianzun has taught the Fa..." They were excited and climbed onto the embankment.

On the road, a caravan carrying goods also stopped.

Tianzun has taught the Fa!
Everyone is listening.

Although, the immortals in Shashui seldom talk about cultivation when they teach the Fa.

Occasionally, a little bit of Taoism will be passed down.

They are also very basic breathing techniques.

But everyone can understand and everyone can learn.

What's more, it just doesn't talk about the method of divine passage.

But the things about "mathematics" and "bacus calculation" are still very useful.

Especially useful for mortals.

At least, if you learn arithmetic, you can calculate your own salary without fear of being harsh.

Merchants do not object to their buddies and even guards learning arithmetic.

Because, in this way, he can get a group of workers who can settle accounts cheaply.

This is very important!
Therefore, as long as Tianzun lectures, nearby aquariums, merchants and even farmers will gather to listen to the lecture.

If you can hear the Tao, you will make a lot of money.

No loss.

At least, it is also a blessing.

So, it didn't take long for a lot of people to gather on the embankment and on the road.

Xu Ji also ignored.

When these people do not exist.

He just looked at the thousands of children in front of him and those lovely auspicious birds and auspicious beasts.

He knows everyone here.

Even know the family situation and past of each of them.

And know their minds.

In front of Daozu, everything is clear at a glance.

Nothing can be hidden from Daozu's eyes.

Therefore, he can know the thoughts of these children.

Be a bystander all the time, feel these kids.

Watching their panic, uneasiness, inferiority complex, fear, and curiosity from the very beginning.

Today's pride, self-confidence and even arrogance.

"Tao Ming!" Xu Ji suddenly said.

As soon as I opened my mouth, I ordered the oldest of these children.

That is, when Xu Ji first arrived in Shashui, the boy with a bare buttocks and a runny nose brought him into the village.

His original name was Goudan.

Later, after learning and recognizing characters, I gave myself a new name.

Tao Ming!

The sun and the moon are bright, so you can see far away!
Hearing Tianzun's roll call, a young man with delicate features and a calm complexion slowly stood up and bowed: "The student is here!"

Xu Ji looked at the 13-year-old child.

When we first met him, he had withered hair, thin body, bony body, and dull eyes. He was no different from the African refugee children Xu Ji had seen on modern TV.

But now, this child has grown tall, confident and proud, and many people praised him: "The real way!"

Xu Ji stared at the young man, and then slowly asked: "Do you remember your brother?"

Tao Ming trembled all over.

Reminds me of the darkest memory in my life.

Eight years ago, he was only five years old.

His elder brother, the elder brother who brought him up since he was a child, was sent to the Hebo Temple and never returned.

He clenched his fists tightly and bowed his head deeply: "Students remember!"

"Brother student, it was eaten by that He Bo..."

"Then why did you lead people to isolate Jiaolong Aoxiao?" Xu Ji asked.

The lonely little dragon who had been sitting in a corner all this time suddenly raised his head when he heard the words.

The so-called Jiaolong is the product of the combination of the Dragon Clan and other Aquarium Clans.

And the Dragon Clan is notorious for being ruthless in caring about life and not caring for it.

The most important thing is that the Dragon Clan never admits that they had children with other Aquarium Clans outside.

Unless, they can successfully transform into a dragon!

Therefore, this dragon named Ao Xiao has no father or mother.

I can only live with my two uncles.

And the uncles wanted to make a living, so they had no time to control him.

Only when it reaches this sandy water can it be considered stable.

But still didn't care about him.

Flood dragons are the same as the dragon clan, their hearts are hard to tame, when they get to this sandy water, they are all aquatic clan.

Those two flood dragons are very capable and earn a lot of incense.

I have been entangled by many clam girls for a long time, and I have built a new home on the river bed of the Shashui River. I have been indulging in the gentle village, and I have almost forgotten who I am. How can I still remember this nephew?
If it weren't for the willow god's favor in Shashui.

Little Jiaolong might have been knocked out long ago, and then taken somewhere to sell to those monks.

Therefore, today is the first time in Xiao Jiaolong's life that someone cares about him.

Moreover, it is still Tianzun!
The real master of this sand and water!

The supernatural emperor of the upper realm!

As soon as Xiao Jiaolong's head became hot, he shed tears.

Tao Ming lowered his head.

Although Tianzun has never admitted it, in Tao Ming's heart, Tianzun is a teacher, and also a great benefactor.

The benefactor of the whole sand and water.

The benefactor of the entire Luxinan!

Even Cao Guo, Chen Guo, Cai Guo, Ju Guo...the benefactors of countless refugees.

Therefore, he didn't dare to lie at all, so he could only say truthfully: "The students are afraid..."

"Afraid?" Xu Ji smiled: "Why are you afraid?"

Tao Ming raised his head: "It's ugly! And it's fierce!"

This is a fact!

The mother of the little Jiaolong Aoxiao was originally the product of the combination of the dragon clan and the crocodile.

Then, another dragon clan met the little dragon's mother one day and gave birth to the little dragon.

Therefore, the appearance of the little dragon, Ao Xiao, is ugly even among the dragons.

Its head is like a crocodile and a snake, with a mouth full of sharp teeth.

The skin is covered with nail plates.

So, upon hearing Tao Ming's words, Ao Xiao, who already had feelings of beauty and ugliness, curled up her head deeply in inferiority, like a tortoise, trying to curl up into a ball.

"Ugly?" Xu Ji smiled.

He stretched out his hand lightly, and the palm appeared clear.

The light reflects the scene of the past.

Under the willow tree at the entrance of the village, there is a puppy with bare buttocks.

His hair was withered and yellow, his eye sockets were sunken, his body was fleshless, his whole body was dirty, his belly was sunken, his two rows of ribs were sunken, his nose was running, and his lips were cracked.

The shape is haggard, and the appearance is like a yaksha!
"Look...are you ugly?" Xu Ji asked.

Tao Ming looked at the reflection of his own past.

Although he has forgotten.

But in the clear light, the Taoist who came riding a bull was very clear.

He bowed his head deeply and whispered, "Ugly!"

In previous years, he was more than ugly.

It's just dust, it's weeds.

Not even Hebo!

Even if it fell into the sandy water, those aquariums would not chew it.

Too thin, no meat, and dirty!
"The students know they are wrong!" Tao Ming said with his head down.

"No!" Xu Ji looked at him: "You haven't realized your mistake yet!"

Tao Ming didn't understand.

The other kids didn't understand either.

Those aquariums listening on the embankment and people stopping on the road listened quietly.

"Come!" Tianzun stretched out his hand gently.

The little black and ugly dragon floated up automatically and landed in front of the Heavenly Venerable Seat.

Ao Xiao fell before Tianzun, only felt Tianzun's figure, as vast as heaven and earth, as ethereal as stars, as towering as mountains, as mighty as the sea.

Countless clear lights linger, and countless auspiciousness and blessings surround it.

But he remembered Tianzun's teachings, so he couldn't help but worship instinctively, but said with a trembling voice: "Jiaolong Aoxiao, thank Tianzun for his care..."

"Jiaolong is the body of sin...the harm of rivers..."

"Really... I really can't bear the love of Tianzun!"

Every dragon has been known since the day they were born.

Heaven and earth are rejecting them.

The world is rejecting them.

because……

They are the sons of the dragon!
But it is not favored by the merits of the Dragon Clan.

Therefore, they bear the sins of the dragon clan, but they cannot get the blessing of the dragon clan's merits and virtues of flying clouds and rain and guarding the sea eye.

As a result, the dragons in the rivers, lakes and seas simply broke the jars and smashed them.

This, in turn, made them a scourge in the eyes of the human race.

If found, they may be caught, killed, and wiped out.

Xu Ji looked at the little dragon in front of him.

His past, under the eyes of Taoist ancestors, formed lines.

Along these lines, you can see his life.

From birth to now.

After his mother died, he shivered and curled up in the puddle, fearful and trembling.

Until the two uncles found him.

Then follow my uncle's ass and eat some leftovers.

Occasionally, I can eat a little incense.

It was some human races in the swamp who were afraid of being attacked, so they came here to worship, but intermittently.

There is very little incense, and it can barely digest a little fish and shrimp, and increase a little strength.

When we got to this sandy water, relying on the size of the uncles, we could finally eat enough incense.

And finally started to grow.

From a few inches long to the current body shape.

Almost half a foot long.

In another ten years, he will be independent.

I can have the shape of my uncles!
But this size also made him feared by others.

How about a little Jiaolong more than one meter long!

Stand up taller than most kids.

The claws are sharp, the mouth is full of sharp teeth, the skin is covered with nails, and there are countless wrinkles on the forehead.

The most important thing is to be able to speak.

For the human race, fear of the real bodies of the monster race and witch race is something engraved in their blood.

After all, after the birth of the Human Race, they were often eaten by the Witch Race and the Monster Race.

Xu Ji looked at this low self-abased little dragon, he smiled lightly: "Did you do anything wrong?"

"Eat people? Or hurt people?"

Ao Xiao shook his head.

Before coming to Shashui, he even ran away when he saw a human child!

"Then what are you guilty of?"

"Come on!" Xu Ji said, "Jiaolong Aoxiao, stand up and tell everyone and your classmates about your past!"

Ao Xiao lowered his head, his two bright yellow pupils turned back and forth like snake pupils.

All kinds of memories emerged in my mind.

He would have buried these pasts in his heart forever and would not tell others.

But now, with Tianzun's encouragement, he has the courage.

Slowly turned around and looked at the children of the human race.

There are also those auspicious birds and auspicious animals.

Those noble auspicious signs made him envious and jealous.

The auspicious object that made him dare not even get close to it, the darling of heaven and earth.

He mustered up his courage, opened his mouth slowly, with sharp teeth all over his mouth, "My name is Ao Xiao..."

"My mother is a Jiaolong in Hongzeli, two thousand miles away from the sand and water..."

"My mom is the best mom in the world..."

In the memory, the appearance of my mother appeared in my mind.

His mother is almost ready to take form.

Therefore, the human form has been basically trained, otherwise it would be impossible for the Dragon Clan to fancy it.

In Xiao Jiaolong's eyes, his mother is usually beautiful, graceful and calm.

"Mom always leaves all the delicious food for me..."

"My mother always told me to stay in the cave and not go out to cause trouble..."

"But...that day..."

"A fairy from Qi Kingdom is here!"

"Immortal, I want to refine a treasure, but I need good dragon skin and dragon oil..."

"I found my mother..."

While talking, the little Jiaolong burst into tears.

His voice, through the willow leaves, spread far away.

The aquariums on the embankment listened, and countless of them sobbed too.

This world...

Powerful human monks and immortals, invincible in Taoism.

aquarium...

In front of them, they are only a little better than the mortals of the human race - they can have the strength to resist.

But this little effort of resistance can only increase their fun in front of monks and even immortals.

"My mother could have escaped..."

"It's all for me... it's all for me..."

"She will stay and fight that fairy..."

"Mother's blood is flowing on me..."

"I'm terrified..."

Little Jiaolong narrated intermittently.

The aquariums on the embankment have already cried together.

So do they!
exactly the same!
The aquarium is just food and raw materials for human monks and gods.

If you want it, grab it!
Rivers, lakes and seas are everywhere!
And the mortals of the human race are the monks and gods, the fodder for the aquarium!

Usually, casually.

When the time comes, the river is full of sin-ridden aquariums.

Killed, even innocent, but meritorious!
However, to the ears of the human race, Xiao Jiaolong's narration was just pitiful and sympathetic.

Far from being able to empathize.

After all, they are aliens!

Moreover, not long ago, he was still the enemy of life and death!
The mortals of the human race are afraid of the aquarium, and the aquarium is afraid of the monks of the human race.

Infinite loops, connected to each other like ouroboros, the chain of hatred has long been established.

Xu Ji naturally knew this.

Therefore, he calmly looked at Tao Ming and said, "Tao Ming..."

"You tell Ao Xiao your story too!"

"Tell me about your brother, and tell me about your mother!"

Tao Ming trembled when he heard this.

That was the last thing he wanted to recall.

but……

In front of Tianzun, he dared not hide it.

Taking a deep breath, Tao Ming turned around and looked at his classmates.

He lowered his head and looked at his own shadow.

The bare-bottomed and ignorant child in the past has grown up now.

What's more, he is smart and capable, and he is praised by others, even a "Tao seed" and "Xianmiao" in many people's mouths.

but……

If my brother is still alive...

"He must be smarter than me!" Tao Ming sighed in his heart.

His elder brother was smarter and more sensible than him since he was a child.

"My brother's name is Tao Jiming..."

"Because it was born when the rooster crowed..."

He spoke slowly, and his voice was carried far away by the willow leaves, echoing in the heaven and earth.
