Villager of Destiny

Chapter 101 Li Bowen's Second Lesson

At this time, Xu Er's home was still in a mess and had a strong smell of blood.

The stump on the ground is still where it started.

Li Bowen came all the way to Xu Er's wife's room. At this time, Xu Er's wife had already collapsed in a pool of blood, her chest was scarlet, and the bones could still be seen faintly. It was obvious that she had been dead for a long time.

Li Bowen sighed slightly, then took out a soul-calling talisman and pasted it on the forehead of Xu Er's wife's corpse.

Not long after, a figure appeared next to Xu Er's wife, which was the soul of Xu Er's wife.

The moment she appeared, there seemed to be mournful cries from all around.

It's just that Xu Er's wife's soul is not like the ghosts I saw before. Her eyes were dazed, as if she didn't know that she was dead. The moment she appeared, she walked slowly outside the house, as if she was still yelling. her daughter's name.

In one day, this family was ruined, and it would be unbearable for anyone to do it, right?

It's just me who was an orphan from birth, maybe I don't have such deep feelings.

But even so, watching this scene, I couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic.

Li Bowen also sighed in the same way: "They have this calamity in their fate, so they can't change it."

"All I can do as a teacher is to let him go away safely."

After saying that, Li Bowen waved his hand, and a golden light shot out and landed directly on Xu Er's wife's soul.

The soul of Xu Er's wife obviously paused, and the eyes that were originally a little dazed became clearer for a moment, but the clearness soon turned into pain, and the mournful cries around her became more and more obvious.

"Go."

Li Bowen slowly spit out two words.

The soul of Xu Er's wife began to dissipate at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a moment, the mournful cry disappeared.

Only then did Li Bowen walk out of the room, and when he got outside, he began to pick up the wreckage of Xu Er on the ground. Although I felt very uncomfortable, I still chose to help immediately.

After putting together Xu Er's bones, Li Bowen pasted another soul calling talisman on Xu Er's body, and Xu Er's soul also appeared in the house after a while.

It's just different from his wife's bewilderment, Xu Er's soul looked very painful, and when he came out, he cried in despair, and the whole room was even louder.

Li Bowen looked at his soul and said: "The poor one who killed you has been eliminated for you."

"Your wife's soul has also left."

Hearing Li Bowen's words, Xu Erhun's mood seemed to stabilize, and after bowing to Li Bowen, it completely dissipated.

Only then did Li Bowen look at me, but when I thought he was going to say something, he didn't say anything, he just looked into my eyes, and for some reason, I seemed to feel a little disappointed.

Then he started to clean up Xu Er's body and put his wife's body beside Xu Er. After lighting three sticks of incense for the two of them, he walked out of Xu Er's house.

I followed him until he walked out of Xu Er's house, and then he stopped. At the same time, the fire in the room lit up, as if a fire had ignited the whole room in an instant.

I was stunned for a while, and then Li Bowen looked at me again, with a more serious look on his face, and said: "I know that although you are a village guard, you have never experienced suffering in the world."

"And you have admitted this identity."

"But the identity of the village guard is a fate that you are destined to never escape in this life."

"You can't change it from the moment you were born."

"So even if you don't want to admit it, you have to accept this fact, and you have to understand the true meaning of the word 'keep'."

"Because from the moment you were selected as the village guard."

"Your life is destined not to be your own."

"It has nothing to do with Chenghuang."

"This is your destiny."

"God's destiny!"

After saying the last four words, Li Bowen left without turning his head, and only when his figure was about to disappear from my sight did he speak again: "This is the second lesson I will teach you as a teacher. "

"If you want to understand."

"Come to the ghost building again to find a teacher."

I stood there in a daze until his figure disappeared, and what he said was still echoing in my mind.

Is it destiny?
It took me a while to smile wryly.

So what should I do?
What should I do?
I couldn't help turning around and looking at the house that was already on fire. I vaguely saw the bodies of Xu Er and his wife being swallowed up bit by bit in the fire.

I thought of what Li Bowen had done before.

After killing Chenghuang, he didn't leave Xiawei Village directly, but chose to come here, and through his own means, Xu Er's family could leave safely.

It was also after doing all this that he said that.

When moving Xu Er's remains, I also realized that he seemed to be a little disappointed in me.

I suddenly understood the meaning of his words.

If it were me, what would I do after killing the city god of Xiawei Village?
Maybe they will leave Xiawei Village directly.

Because I don't really care about these innocent people, I always think about myself.

I left Niang'er Village and searched for the Zhenling Coffin for my own life.

In Fengling Village, seeing so many people die, my heart was only slightly touched, but I didn't feel too much emotion, because at that time, I was only for the township coffin, only the living fairy in the township coffin. So after I got what I wanted, I left Fengling Village directly, and I didn't care what happened to Fengling Village.

Because at that time, I was only thinking about myself.

Then in Tianmen Village.

I know that there are zombies in Tianmen Village, but I still think about not getting involved in those things. If I didn't feel that I couldn't get away, I might not even make a move.

Even when I got to that tomb, my original intention was not to relieve Tianmen Village from worries, but because Uncle Hu told me that it was the tomb of the village guard and there were treasures in it.

Even so, when I met Li Bowen later and found out that there was a flying zombie inside, I also wanted to leave there. If Li Bowen hadn't told me that there was a dragon-seeking map inside, I wouldn't even go in.

think carefully.

I seem to be such a person.

It's always been just me.

Even though I know that I am a villager, even if I know that a villager is destined to 'guard the village and keep the soul', I have never thought of doing what a villager should do.

Because I'm repelling.

But when I was repelling, I was taking advantage of some benefits brought to me by this layer of identity.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing at myself.

I understood it all at once.

Whether it was the first lesson Li Bowen gave me, telling me how to deal with ghosts, or the second lesson he gave me here, it was telling me how to be a village guard.

No wonder he was disappointed.

but……

I don't want to be a village guard.

I really don't want to.

What a destiny, no one has asked me if I am willing since I was born.

I just want to change my destiny.

Is it wrong?
I asked myself.

It was also at this time that I suddenly saw a vague red figure appearing in front of me. In the thunderstorm, she looked at me in a daze, and said timidly, "Big brother."

"I want to go home."
