Reborn Craftsman

Chapter 549
Sikong Lei wanted to stop him, but Liu Xing pulled him away.

He could tell that the beggar had no ill intentions towards Little Peanut.

It seems that what he just said touched something abandoned in the depths of the beggar's soul. Now that he picked it up, it feels like a world away.

"Hahaha... Since you call me grandpa, I can't let you call me for nothing, and I don't have any good things on me. You should take this thing first!" After the beggar walked up to Little Peanut, he smiled and took the jade The jade carving was stuffed into Little Peanut's hand.

"Grandpa, what about my gift?" Qianqian asked enviously.

"Is he your sister too?" The beggar looked at Liu Xing.

"Yes!" Liu Xing nodded.

Although it was not born to parents, but the relationship is closer than ordinary biological ones.

"Oh! I went out in a hurry, and I didn't bring any valuables with me!" After reaching out and pinching Qianqian's little face, the beggar ran towards the west on crutches: "Wait a minute, I Come and go."

"You don't need to do this!" Liu Xinglian shouted.

"You don't understand!" said the beggar, and disappeared into the darkness with all the water monkeys.

No one noticed that the beggar secretly wiped his tears in the dark.

Sikong Lei looked at Liu Xing in a daze: "This...what's the situation?"

"I don't know, but it's a good thing, Little Peanut called grandpa well!" Liu Xing sighed and shook his head.

"Brother, is this thing worth anything?" Little Peanut asked with his head tilted as he looked at the jade stone given by the beggar in his hand.

"It's not just valuable, it's priceless!" Sikong Lei smiled wryly.

"That's right, you put it away, it will be your dowry in the future, it will scare your future husband to death!" Liu Xing joked.

"I don't want to marry!" Little Peanut pouted.

While talking, the beggar ran back with a cane.

This time the water monkey never followed him, and he was the only one.

There is an extra string of pearl necklaces on her hand.

Judging by the size and color of the pearls, they are probably worth a lot.

After putting it on Qianqian's neck, he said kindly to Liu Xing: "You are now the descendant of the four sects of Bamboo God Bamboo Craftsman, Blacksmith, Organ, and Beast Royal. Why don't you go into the cave to accept the test and get the inheritance?" ah?"

"I'm worried that no one will take care of my sister." Liu Xing said truthfully.

"Oh!" The beggar suddenly realized.

This reason made him unable to refute.

If only he had two such lovely sisters.

That is, he does not change in a good inheritance.

"Before, I was wary of you secretly killing us!"

Sikong Lei added with a smile.

"Why should I kill you?"

asked the beggar suspiciously.

In order to guard the Bamboo God Cave, he has never married or had any children in his life. When he sees a child entering the Bamboo God Cave, let alone kill him, he will be too late to love him.

"Didn't you set up traps to kill the Lin family who entered the Bamboo God's Cave before? And those water monkeys, didn't you raise them to harm people?" Sikong Lei would not be polite to beggars, and said whatever came to his mind immediately. .

"I want to say that it is all done by Taoist Pufeng, do you believe it?" the beggar said in a low voice.

"I don't believe it!" Sikong Lei said repeatedly.

"I believe it!" Liu Xing smiled.

"Why?" Sikong Lei was puzzled.

The beggar smiled: "Because I have been controlled by Daoist Pufeng using voodoo since I met Daoist Pufeng. If I want to kill someone, can I do it without the consent of Daoist Pufeng?"

"Then, the killing mechanism in the Bamboo God Cave, as well as the water monkey, were all done by Daoist Pufeng?" Sikong Lei asked in a voice.

"The mechanism itself exists. They are not a killing mechanism, but to prevent outsiders from entering the Zhushen Cave. For the deaths of the Lin family and the archaeologists, you can't blame Master Pufeng or me. Don't forget, this Bamboo God Cave This is a taboo place!" The beggar looked towards the cave ahead with his hands behind his back, with a solemn expression: "As for the water monkey, it existed hundreds of years ago. For the descendants, I can control them and prevent them from leaving the Bamboo God Cave, which is already quite remarkable."

In this way, Daoist Pufeng and you are both good people? "Sikong Lei couldn't help complaining.

"Good people are not considered good people, but Daoist Pufeng and I have never thought of harming others in the past. We just want to protect the inheritance in the Bamboo God's cave!" The idea of ​​handing over all the inheritance of the cave to the country, after all, we are old, and no one will take over the protection of the bamboo god cave.

But helplessly, the Lin family, Lin Yaotian, and Lin Kuantan were too greedy and wanted to keep it for themselves, so uncontrollable things would happen later. "

"This..." Sikong Lei fell silent.

After all, what the beggar said was the truth, and the excavation of the Bamboo God Cave would not have come to this point if the Lin family hadn't committed suicide.

But to be honest, this truth made him somewhat unacceptable. After all, in his mind before, the descendants of Taoist Pufeng and the scum of the bamboo god and beast were not good people.

But after thinking about it for a while, he was relieved, because many complicated things in this world were originally made by people. If there were no people, I'm afraid it would be much simpler.

Just like what happened in the Zhushen Cave, without the intervention of the Lin family, so many people would not have died.

This really confirmed the saying, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are grievances, and it is impossible to be alone in it.

Liu Xing looked at Sikong Lei's expression and smiled: "By the way, I'm asking you something, I hope you can clarify my doubts."

"Ask!" Knowing that Liu Xing had no intention of harming him, the beggar nodded slowly.

"On the way here, I found that many perpetual machines in the bodies of the beasts have been dug out. Did you do this?" Liu Xing looked at the beggar.

"No!" the beggar replied.

"Who did that?" Liu Xing was surprised.

"I don't know." The beggar shook his head helplessly.

"You really don't know?" Sikong Lei expressed some doubts.

"This is not the core secret of the Bamboo God Cave, do I have to lie to you?" The beggar sighed softly: "Let me tell you the truth! I have been in this Bamboo God Cave for hundreds of years, but there are some things I don't know. So far, I haven’t figured it out. For example, the perpetual mechanism in the body of the beast that you said was dug, and what is in the third floor of the Zhushen Cave, and where these inheritances in the cave come from. It is still a mystery until now. .”

"Then according to your guess, who did it to dig out the perpetual motion machine from the organ beast?" Liu Xing knew that the beggar didn't need to lie to him, so he continued to ask in a daze.

"It shouldn't be a human being, because human beings don't have such abilities!" After thinking for a while, the beggar spoke out what was in his heart.

"What is that?" Sikong Lei was startled.

"It may be some kind of terrifying creature, or it may be a mechanism beast. In short, it rarely appears on the third floor outside the Bamboo God Cave." The beggar replied.

"Okay!" Liu Xing didn't want to dwell on this problem, and after smiling embarrassingly, he said, "Before I was in the cave where Daoist Pufeng died, I found that he sacrificed you and let him live. Come down, but how are you still alive now?"

"Am I living well?" The beggar pointed helplessly at his crippled right leg.

Seeing that Liu Xing was a little embarrassed, he waved his hands and smiled and said, "It's actually my fate. I was rescued by three water monkeys in the end. Otherwise, I would have died hundreds of times if I were someone else."

"That's right! You said that Daoist Pu Feng died in that cave, take me to see him later, at least put him in the ground!" The beggar added with a sigh.

"It's in the cave in the ancient city. If you're in a hurry, I can take you there right now!" Liu Xing said.

"No hurry, no hurry!" The beggar waved his hand.

"Then I'll ask you another question!" Liu Xing said curiously.

"Ask! I knew you had a lot of questions!" Seeing that there was no one else around, the beggar immediately sat on the stone sculpture beside him.

"Since Daoist Pufeng has cast a spell on you, under normal circumstances, once Daoist Pufeng dies, you must not live alone, but in the current situation..." Liu Xing looked at the beggar suspiciously.

"Hahaha...that's a good question!" The beggar raised his head and laughed loudly: "Actually, when I was bewitched by Daoist Pufeng back then, I only had disagreements on the suggestion of guarding the Bamboo God's cave, and it was not an enemy. On the contrary, in the next hundred years, Taoist Pufeng and I got along well in the Bamboo God Cave, and even became confidants. Under such circumstances, Taoist Pufen suggested several times that the Gu worms in my body Take it out and restore my free body, but I refused, because it would do great harm to Daoist Pu Feng.

In the end, Lin Yaotian brutally pushed him down the reincarnation wall mechanism. Maybe he felt that he was going to die. At the last moment, he forcibly released the Gu worm's control over me, or maybe... Before this, the Gu worm in my body had already was taken out. "

"This is the only explanation!" Liu Xing sighed.

In fact, the first time he met Taoist Pufeng, he knew that Taoist Pufeng was not a bad person. Later, when he entered the Bamboo God Cave, although many doubts pointed to Taoist Pufeng, in his mind, I still don't want to believe that Taoist Pufeng is a murderous person.

Now I really want to pay the water surface, although there is a sense of relief.

But what's more, I feel very unworthy of the death of Taoist Pu Feng.

Sikong Lei saw what Liu Xing was thinking, and he said with a sneer: "Lin Yaotian probably escaped from Xiangxi now, and it would be difficult to find him, I think... let's let him live for three more months !"

Liu Xing didn't make a sound, he knew that Si Konglei meant to protect Lin Yaotian.

After all, Lin Yaotian is Sikong Lei's father-in-law no matter what.

The beggar didn't know the inside story, so he said angrily: "Lin Yaotian, did he escape from Xiangxi just because everything will be fine? Let me tell you, if the head-hanging mechanism in his body is not removed for a day, life will be worse than death. Looking at the whole world, no one can undo Longshi and Xuelingzhi."
