Chapter 4655
After half a cup of tea's time, the Chen family's granny finally calmed down. She very naturally turned her head and looked towards the central room.
There was also a reclining chair at the entrance of the central room. That was where Chen Ming was reading. However, when the Chen family's granny's gaze fell on Chen Ming, she saw that he was holding an ancient book in his hand. He was squinting his eyes as he strenuously read it. Beside him, there was also a young page boy serving him.
However, at this moment, the two of them were like clay sculptures. They couldn't even move. One was flipping through the book while the other was holding a bamboo fan to light the stove.
Not to mention them, even the flame in the small stove was still under the kettle.
"Great … Great Master?" The Chen family's granny seemed to understand something. She hurriedly struggled to get up from the reclining chair.
That reclining chair could be swayed. Normally, the Chen family's granny would have to rely on the support of the younger generation to get up. At this moment, how could she get up in a panic?
The man slightly smiled. He stepped forward and carefully helped the Chen family's granny up. When the Chen family's granny saw that the man was personally helping her, she was even more terrified. She hurriedly wanted to salute.
The man waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't be so polite. Although you are young, you are already senile. If you salute this old man, this old man will feel apologetic in his heart!"
The Chen family's granny felt a huge force stopping her. She simply stopped saluting and carefully asked, "Great Master is looking for me … Is there a reason?"
"En …" The man nodded, "This old man's name is Xiao Hua. You can call me Daoist Xiao.
This old man came here today to verify something with you! "
At this point, Xiao Hua paused for a moment. The smile on his face disappeared. He asked, "Presumably, you already know what it is?"
"Daoist Xiao?"
The Chen family's granny was already old. She didn't hear Xiao Hua's last sentence clearly. Instead, she cried out in surprise, "You … You are that Daoist Xiao?"
Xiao Hua was stunned. He seemed to have thought of something. He glanced at Xin Xin and asked, "This old man doesn't know the Daoist Xiao you are talking about … Who is it?"
"Daoist Xiao, I am talking about that immortal rice!" The Chen family's granny's face was filled with excitement. She said, "Daoist Xiao's rice!
Oh, I should say … it's the immortal rice bestowed by Daoist Master Xiao! "
Chen Family's Granny's words were a bit unclear, and even a bit incoherent. However, Xiao Hua heard it clearly. He rubbed his nose in embarrassment, nodded and said, "En, you're right. I am that Daoist Xiao!"
"Daoist Master Xiao, Daoist Master Xiao, you are truly a living Bodhisattva!"
Granny Chen takes two steps forward, grabs Xiao Hua's Daoist robe and says, "Thirty years ago, our Jiangshui Town met with a disaster. All of our rice withered. If not for Daoist Xiao's immortal seed, my children would have starved to death!
You are the real Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering. You are more merciful than Amitabha … "
After hearing the Chen Family's Granny say a few words, Xiao Hua's mood calmed down. He smiled and said, "Since you know this old man, then this matter will be easy to handle!
Take a look and see if you know him. "
As he spoke, Xiao Hua waved his hand, and the imprisoned Six-Eared Macaque was pulled out. However, the Six-Eared Macaque had transformed into Zhen Kong's appearance!
"Ah?"
When Granny Chen saw the Six-Eared Macaque, she was shocked. Her eyes flashed with ruthlessness. However, in a moment, she hurriedly retreated, and in a hurry, her body fell backward.
Xiao Hua did not need to raise his hand, as Xin Xin had already supported Granny Chen from the side!
Granny Chen had just stabilized herself when she immediately turned her head and looked towards the direction of the central room. The hatred in her eyes disappeared, and instead, it was replaced by fear.
"Cao Cao, don't be afraid!" Xiao Hua said warmly, "This beast has already been imprisoned by this old man. It can no longer harm others!
Today, this old man came to tell you the truth and avenge your parents! "
"Avenge … avenge my parents?"
When Granny Chen heard this, her originally stooped figure began to tremble. Her slightly fearful eyes lit up again, and her lips trembled as she said, "But … but my parents' revenge … has already been avenged!"
Xiao Hua frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, he pointed at the Six-Eared Macaque and said, "Do you think this is the real Zhen Kong or the fake Zhen Kong?"
"This …" Granny Chen hesitated for a moment, then looked at Xiao Hua and Xin Xin. She gritted her teeth and said, "This is the fake Zhen Kong!"
"But when Chunzang asked you, why did you say it was the real Zhen Kong?" Xiao Hua naturally knew that Granny Chen would say this, but he still asked the same question.
"No, Master Chunzang did not ask me!"
Granny Chen seemed to remember the situation clearly. She replied, "It was that big pig called Zhen Jie who asked me!"
Xiao Hua naturally did not care about this detail. He waved his hand and said, "No matter who asked, this old man wants to ask you. You knew that this was not the real Zhen Kong, so why did you say he was the real Zhen Kong?"
"Hahaha …" At this point, Granny Chen seemed to have understood. She laughed loudly and said, "Zhenren Xiao, you are an immortal. You don't know what this little girl was thinking!
At that time, this little girl was just a child. I did not know who was good and who was bad. How could this little girl dare to speak blindly?
Besides, the real Zhen Kong killed my parents, and I'm powerless to avenge them. This fake Zhen Kong killed the real Zhen Kong, and I can't even thank him enough. Why should I expose him? "
"Ai, why is hatred so deep in your bones?" Xiao Hua sighed. "It's been almost fifty years, but you still haven't let it go!"
"How can I let it go?
I originally had a father and mother who loved me. Although my home was shabby, with my father and mother, I had everything!
It was also that afternoon that I met that Zhen Kong. In the morning, my mother kindly went to deliver food to them, but instead … instead, she was killed by them. My father merely asked them a few questions before he was killed by them. My entire life has changed because of this matter. How can I let it go? "
Granny Chen seemed to have buried this matter in her stomach her whole life. Today, she happily said it out loud. Tears fell from her eyes. "Do you know?
Daoist Xiao, I was still dreaming just now!
In the dream, I was eating the small fish my mother fried, and that damned Zhen Kong rushed in and beat my mother to death with a stick!
Although I can't remember Mother's appearance, I still remember Mother's bloodied clothes very clearly!
Even now, I can still dream of this nightmare. How can you let it go? "
"Namo Maitreya Buddha …" Xiao Hua chanted the name of Buddha and said, "Actually, what you saw was only the surface!"
Then, Xiao Hua told her the truth about Mao Cao's parents being controlled by the control bug. Finally, he said, "Actually, it was this Six Ear Macaque who did this. He controlled your parents to harm Chunzang. That Zhen Kong … he had no choice but to act in order to protect Chunzang!"
"I know!"
Out of Xiao Hua's expectation, Granny Chen replied without hesitation. "When I was young, I didn't know. When I grew up, I understood!
My parents must have been used by the fake Zhen Kong. That's why they were killed by the real Zhen Kong! "
"Mm, it's good that you know!"
Xiao Hua nodded. "The real Zhen Kong was sent by this old man to protect Chunzang. But he was killed by this Six Ear Macaque.
Now that the Sutra Seeking Extreme Bliss is over, this bastard's scheme has been exposed. This old man wants to kill him to avenge Zhen Kong. But he said that this old man doesn't have the right to kill him. In this world, the only one who has the right to decide whether he lives or dies is you. So, this old man brought him here.
Should I kill Zhen Kong and let him go? "
Granny Chen was stunned. She stared at the Six Ear Macaque for a moment. The Six Ear Macaque's eyes didn't seem to be pleading. There wasn't even a trace of emotion. Granny Chen raised her head and looked at Xiao Hua. "Of course I should let him go. Why should I kill him?
He helped me take revenge for my parents! "
"Ah?"
Xiao Hua was surprised. When he knew that the Six Ear Macaque was looking for Mao Cao, he already knew what the Six Ear Macaque meant!
The Six Ear Macaque thought that Mao Cao didn't know that it was the Six Ear Macaque who used the control bug to control her parents. So, Mao Cao thought that the Six Ear Macaque was the one who helped her avenge her parents.
But what Xiao Hua didn't understand was that Mao Cao already knew that the Six Ear Macaque was the one who killed her parents. Why would he let the Six Ear Macaque go?
"Sigh, Zhenren Xiao!" Granny Chen sighed. "Don't you think it's strange?
Why is it that I know that this Six … Six Ear Macaque used my parents to kill them, but I still feel grateful to him and don't want him to die? "
"Indeed!" Xiao Hua nodded and rubbed his nose.
Granny Chen raised her head and looked in the direction of the East Sea. She said in a low voice, "This place is not far from where I lived when I was young. But I never went back!
Although the Qing Yu Hall that Master Chunzang sent me to was very good, and I had good food and drink, and I even lived a good life in the Chen family. But all of this … it can't be compared to that broken house by the sea!
Because I don't have parents in this world, even if I go back, I won't be able to see them!
So I'm afraid that if I go back … "
Seeing that Granny Chen was reminiscing, Xiao Hua smiled bitterly. But he didn't interrupt her. After all, a tragic childhood had already affected this old woman's whole life!
Fortunately, after a while, Granny Chen said again, "Zhenren Xiao, although I'm old, I'm not stupid. Although the Six Ear Macaque used my parents, I don't hate him!
Because there are too many people in this world who are scheming against each other, deceiving each other and using each other. Compared to these people, the Six Ear Macaque's methods are nothing!
"Daoist Master Xiao, in my entire life, I have only been to Liangqi County. Most of my time has been spent in Jiangshui Town. My third son is a businessman. I have only followed him for three years in this small Jiangshui Town. In those three short years, I have seen all kinds of strange ways of using people."
If this small town is like this, then what about the whole Liangqi County?
What about the whole Jing Province?
What about the whole Hidden Immortal Continent?
I often tell my son that other people … can be used because they have value to be used. If a person has no value to be used, then there's no meaning to their existence!
But after you use them, you must repay them. Even if you're scheming against them, don't be unscrupulous, and don't be ruthless. Because it's normal to use people, but unscrupulous means can take people's lives! "
