Fu Shifeng

Chapter 245: Being a fake
Sun Lingyin woke up faintly, and the unfamiliar beams and roofs came into view, and then a nightmare-like experience came to her mind, causing her to wake up suddenly.

Sitting up, I couldn't stop panting. Before I could wipe the cold sweat from my head, I saw myself lying on an old yellowed bamboo couch, covered with washed-white bedding, and the long crocodile silk dress produced in the East China Sea was also on my body. I was changed into linen clothes, which were dry, hard, and somewhat burred, making me feel slightly uncomfortable when wearing them.

Sun Lingyin seemed to feel that she was still in a dream. Looking around, she saw an ordinary house in front of her.It was dusk now, the sun was shining into the house from the window, and the smell of smoke could be faintly heard.

One moment he was experiencing life and death on Wengzhou Island, but now he was in a quiet and peaceful residential house. The situation was so different that Sun Lingyin was at a loss for a moment.

"Oh, it can't be done. This can't be done."

At this time, the old woman's voice came from outside the house, as if she was rejecting something, and another man said: "Mother-in-law, please don't come out. Just accept these pieces of cloth. I am a clumsy man who doesn't know how to take care of others. I have no choice but to entrust Miss Sun to you."

Seemingly unable to refuse, the old woman said: "Okay, I'll accept it... It's getting late. If Cheng Langjun doesn't mind, you can stay here for one night. I've already prepared food on the stove."

"Thank you for your hard work, mother-in-law." Cheng Langjun entered the room with a smile, just in time to meet Sun Lingyin's eyes as she poked her head out from the side.

The moment she saw this "Cheng Langjun", Sun Lingyin was so frightened that she backed away. She fell onto the bamboo couch, her limbs stiff and trembling slightly. She couldn't even escape, not to mention self-protection and counterattack.

Taotie opened the partition curtain and said, "Are you awake? It seems to be pretty much what I expected."

Sun Lingyin forced herself to hold on and kept shrinking back. She leaned against the corner and shivered, looking like a frightened baby animal. Her face was full of fear and she didn't dare to look at Taotie.

"Am I so scary?" Taotie laughed, then ducked, approached, grabbed Sun Lingyin's wrist, and sensed her pulse, which made her face pale with fear.

"You have good bones, and with the addition of Xia Shiqi, your body has been refined and refined." Taotie nodded: "It's a pity that you have an extreme temperament and are not suitable for cultivating immortals. The wishful thinking of that master led you to go astray. Yin, it is destined to have no good results."

When Sun Lingyin heard the other party talking about Wu Xiezi, she immediately reacted. She raised her head and looked directly at Taotie, and shouted angrily: "Stop! You are not allowed to insult the master!"

Taotie saw Sun Lingyin staring with red eyes, hiding great fear behind anger, gritting his silver teeth, as if he was ready to open his mouth to tear off a piece of flesh, and die with him at any time.

"Insult? How can you call this an insult?" Taotie let go of her hand and looked Sun Lingyin up and down. Her eyes, as if they were real, made her feel as if there were snakes crawling on her body. She immediately shuddered and instinctively curled up.

"It's been more than ten years since Cheng Sanwu wiped out your whole family, right?" Taotie sat on the edge of the bamboo couch, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "But after all these years, your cultivation is still shallow, and you can't even take revenge with your own hands. .Such a pure man has been trained to become a mediocre person. Doesn’t it just mean that your master’s abilities are mediocre?”

Sun Lingyin's body trembled slightly and she bit her lower lip tightly, almost causing it to bleed: "There is no need to humiliate me, just kill me!"

"Killing people? That's so boring." Taotie smiled and waved his hands: "Besides, I have no grievances with you, maybe I will thank you even more!"

Although Sun Lingyin did not speak, there was a hint of confusion in his resentful eyes. Seeing this, Taotie explained: "If you hadn't set up this murderous plot against Cheng Sanwu, I probably wouldn't have been able to reappear in the world so easily. Even though it was unintentional, But this is also a rare opportunity. I am not an ungrateful person, so I plan to return the opportunity to you."

"No!" Sun Lingyin said resolutely: "I will never surrender to you!"

Taotie was confused, raised his hands to rub his face, and then asked: "You people, do you have to be so imaginative? When did I tell you to kneel down and bow your head? I didn't ask you to kowtow, let alone What do you give in return?”

"Hypocritical!" Sun Lingyin shouted coldly.

Taotie not only didn't get angry when he heard this, but instead slapped his thigh and praised: "That's right! Your understanding is also quite high! Since you are a human being, how can you not be hypocritical?"

Sun Lingyin frowned, feeling that the man in front of him was full of heresies and unreasonable.

Taotie was about to explain when an old woman arrived with a pot of hot porridge. Although she was old, she was kind and approachable: "Miss Sun, you finally woke up. Is there anything wrong with you?"

The sound of the two arguing and arguing didn't seem to reach outside. Taotie stepped forward to take the porridge from the old woman and put it on the tables aside. He said politely and thoughtfully: "Don't worry, mother-in-law, I checked her pulse. What?" There’s nothing wrong with it.”

The old woman looked at Sun Lingyin and saw that her brows were furrowed and her body was curled up. She couldn't help complaining: "Cheng Langjun, this little lady's face is pale. It seems that she is not well-educated. Don't bully her."

Taotie laughed and said, "Don't worry, mother-in-law, I promised her elders that I will take good care of her."

"Mr. Cheng, you must keep your word, otherwise don't blame the old woman for being cruel. I will drive you out of the house to blow in the cold wind." The old woman pretended to be an elder and begged for mercy.

"Okay, I won't disturb you two." The old woman said with a smile before leaving: "I only have this bedding left. If it gets wet, I'm afraid it won't dry during the day."

When Sun Lingyin heard this, she couldn't help but feel disgusted.After the old woman left, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Where is this place?"

Taotie replied calmly: "Xiaojia Village near Xilingdu in Yuezhou is an ordinary place in the entire Jiangnan."

"Why did you bring me here?" Sun Lingyin refused.

Taotie scooped up the porridge, looking like an ordinary person: "You were in a coma before, because your mind was so confused that it caused your true energy to go wrong. You almost collapsed and died on the spot. It was me who took action in time to pull you away from the gate of hell. Come back. Although you can save your life, you still need to rest for a while, so I will place you here temporarily.

"But when it comes to other people, you can't tell me where you and I are coming from, right? I made up a reason casually, and I thought they were newlyweds who were visiting relatives but encountered a thief... Don't look at me like that, I don't like you. Yes, she always looks like she doesn’t want to cry, and even if she gets married, she will be jealous.”

When Sun Lingyin heard these words, she felt unbelievable.Shen Mo looked inside attentively and found that the injuries he suffered on Wengzhou Island were almost healed, but his Qi was slightly weak and he really needed to rest and recover.

But she didn't understand why the person in front of her wanted to save her?Is it to make him lower his guard and then humiliate and torture him severely?

Taotie scooped up a bowl of porridge and blew the heat away. Xilihulu took a few bites and praised: "This fish soup really needs fresh fish. If you add some pepper, it will be more flavorful."

Pepper is produced in Tianzhu and is very valuable. There has always been a saying of "one ounce of gold and one ounce of pepper".Even though there were many wealthy merchants in the south of the Yangtze River who were trading with overseas countries, pepper was still unimaginably expensive and was by no means a spice that country women could afford.

But Taotie was seen holding the bowl in one hand, flexing his fingers with the other hand to make secrets, and mumbling words as if he was performing a ritual.

After a while, a small handful of pepper appeared out of thin air and landed firmly in Taotie's palm.Sun Lingyin's eyes twitched when she saw this. This was clearly a moving thing, and it was a very clever spell. "Hey, we have it!" Taotie clenched his fingers tightly, rubbed and kneaded it, crushed the pepper into fine pieces, sprinkled it into the porridge, scooped it up and stirred it, took another bite, and said with a big brow, "It's so fresh! This is the taste! "

Taotie didn't just eat for himself, he filled another bowl and handed it to Sun Lingyin, but she just stared at him and refused to reach out to take it.

"If I want to harm you, I won't resort to poisoning, right?" Taotie smiled and said, "If you have any grudges, let's wait until you're full."

Sun Lingyin thought hard, took the bowl of porridge and started eating.Seeing this, Taotie nodded and said, "That's right. You should eat and drink. Only by taking good care of yourself can you work."

The two of them each had a few bowls, and quickly finished the pot of porridge and soup. It seemed that because of the spicy pepper, Sun Lingyin's face was much rosier, not as pale as before.

"What on earth are you going to do?" Sun Lingyin did not let down her guard. She had heard about the Taotie disaster when she was in Penglai, and knew that Fu Shifeng's masters of all generations had made countless sacrifices in order to fight against the Taotie.

Knowing that the person in front of him was transformed by Taotie, Sun Lingyin did not dare to take it lightly.She just didn't understand why the legendary glutton, who was ferocious, greedy and insatiable, behaved like this, just like an ordinary person.

"Do you want revenge?" Taotie asked with interest.

Sun Lingyin's eyebrows narrowed and she was about to answer, but in an instant she fell into confusion again.

"You don't know who to seek revenge from, right?" Taotie understood her thoughts at a glance and smiled delicately: "Cheng Sanwu killed your whole family, you don't plan to take revenge?"

Sun Lingyin's breathing became a little rapid, and she clenched her fists with both hands. It was obvious that her hatred could not be eliminated, but she could not say a word at this moment.

"Since you have a grudge, you must avenge it." Taotie said: "So what if your father and brother are scum? Those who kill will always be killed. This is a common principle in the world."

"The same goes for you." Sun Lingyin's voice trembled, and she stared into Taotie's eyes with tears streaming down her face. She didn't know whether it was hatred or fear.

Taotie nodded matter-of-factly: "That's right. After all, I have caused great harm to your master. As a disciple, it cannot be justified for you not to take revenge. But if you think about it carefully, who caused this situation today?"

Sun Lingyin lowered her head, thinking along Taotie's words without realizing it, her face solemn and silent.

"You must know that Fu Shifeng has mainly used seals to deal with me in the past thousands of years." Taotie said: "This is not because Fu Shifeng is unwilling to adapt, but it is the safest. I don't need to explain the reason. , the appearance of Cheng Sanwu and all the subsequent disturbances are enough to prove that Taotie's act of transforming into a human being is an out-and-out foolish act!"

Sun Lingyin raised her head and looked at Taotie: "Isn't it all because of this that you broke the seal now?"

Taotie looked at his hands and couldn't help but laugh: "Do you think I am happy with this? Thousands of years ago, I could uplift mountains and move land just by shaking my body, but now I am bound to my body. Yes, it's so fragile that ordinary swords can pierce the flesh."

Sun Lingyin frowned slightly when he heard this, but didn't say much else.

"It's not wrong to have hatred in your heart and want revenge." Taotie reminded: "I won't talk about vulgar nonsense like when will retribution be repaid, but revenge, if you can't trace the source and completely uproot it, That’s not revenge, it’s just venting resentment.”

"You want me to... take revenge on Fu Shifeng?" Sun Lingyin has an extreme temperament, but she is not stupid or ignorant.

"Smart!" Taotie complimented him. Seeing that her face was still wary, he said, "Don't worry, I'm not asking you to kill your master. Rather, if it weren't for Fu Shifeng, how would your master be?" If we are involved in these things, wouldn’t it be better to practice Qingxiu in the East China Sea?”

Sun Lingyin sneered and said: "Fu Shifeng is a master like a cloud, you think too highly of me."

Taotie suddenly became serious: "I can give you a chance to have a glimpse of the profound realm."

Sun Lingyin did not agree: "In the final analysis, you put on this hypocritical face just to take advantage of me!"

"Yes, that's right." Taotie did not deny it at all: "Now that I have become a human being, of course I have to act hypocritically. This is the way to go in the world."

"Absurd!" Sun Lingyin immediately refuted: "If you don't have sincerity and don't see your true nature, what's the right way to talk about it?"

"Is this what your master taught you?" Taotie smiled faintly: "True heart and true nature, these words are too vague. In this world, who can guarantee that they can see their true true nature? Everyone has the desire for food and sex. It is the creation of heaven and earth and the basis for the reproduction of species. Is this considered the true nature of the heart? Is it true that practicing Taoism, chanting Buddha's name, eating fasting and meditating all day long can be regarded as revealing the true nature of the heart?"

"A bunch of fallacies." Sun Lingyin didn't want to hear it anymore.

"I don't like reasoning either. It's all nonsense." Taotie said, "How about it? Why don't you consider my proposal?"

Sun Lingyin was silent for a long time. There seemed to be a fire of hatred burning deep in her heart, causing every inch of her body and mind to suffer.

"You just said that I can take revenge on you?" Sun Lingyin asked tentatively: "Is this true?"

"Indeed, I allow you to take revenge." Taotie said generously, "But I also want to give you a piece of advice. With your current level of cultivation, taking action rashly will only lead to a dead end. You can't let me sit and chop you down, right?"

Sun Lingyin thought for a moment and made up her mind with almost no effort: "Okay! I promise you. How can I get a glimpse of the profound realm?"

Taotie raised his hand and turned his palm, using a little black shadow as a guide, he summoned the essence of heaven and earth, the five directions and the five qi, and suddenly turned it into a pill.He looked at Sun Lingyin with unfathomable depth in his eyes, and asked: "I wonder if you dare to take this pill and be reborn?"

Sun Lingyin blinked rapidly. She knew very well that once she took this step, she might not be able to look back.

However, his family members were killed tragically, his teacher's respect could not be saved, and his past life became a joke. Numerous flashbacks appeared before his eyes, like a silent torture-does he really need to look back?

With a thought, Sun Lingyin raised his hand, took the mysterious elixir, and put it into his mouth.
