Fish only seek revenge, not leap over the Dragon Gate

Chapter 260 The Taoist priest who predicts fate comes to Zhang Hao's house

After Ba Ge left, Xie Huanzhu arrived the next day.

After seeing Xie Huanzhu, Lu Jingmo's mental state improved a lot.

"Bage was here yesterday, why are you here too?"

Xie Huanzhu looked at her grandfather with her bright eyes. He seemed to be in good spirits, which made her feel relieved.

"Grandfather, I just came to see you and try out the speed of my semi-flying."

She touched her head and chuckled, "Now that I've tried it, it's still much slower than Eight Pigeons."

When Lu Jingmo heard her first sentence, he was still a little confused, but when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Lu Jingmo smiled, and Xie Huanzhu was also very happy. She ran to his side, pulled his sleeve and said:

"Grandfather, my sister misses you. How about I take you back with me?"

Lu Jingmo smiled and touched her head, "How do I take it?"

Xie Huanzhu hesitated for a while and said, "Should I carry my grandfather on my back or in his arms?"

Lu Jingmo laughed again and looked down at her small arms and thin back. It was hard to imagine how she could lift him or carry him on her back.

"Huanzhu, you should wait until you grow up before taking your grandfather flying!"

Xie Huanzhu also remembered that she had a small body, and it seemed difficult for her to carry her grandfather, whether she was lifting him or carrying him on her back.

"So, Grandfather, when do you plan to return to Gunzhou?"

Lu Jingmo scratched her nose and said, "Soon, I'll go back once everything is arranged."

"Then Grandfather, please hurry up. I miss you so much. And..."

Xie Huanzhu paused, his expression becoming serious, "Grandfather, you must take good care of yourself, and nothing must happen to you."

Why does this sound familiar?

Lu Jingmo thought about it and realized that it was Ba Ge who also said that. He couldn't help but be curious, why were they so worried that something might happen to him?

If it's just concern between family members, just a word of advice would be enough.

But it was obvious that both the tone and attitude of Ba Ge and the tone and attitude of Huan Zhu in front of him seemed too serious.

Thinking about this, he asked tentatively: "Huanzhu, grandpa is getting old, and one day he will leave you."

"No! No!" Xie Huanzhu was anxious, grabbing his sleeve and shaking him, "Grandfather, you must take good care of yourself and not die early."

Lu Jingmo became more and more curious. Why couldn't he have died earlier?

Although he didn't really want to die early, life was unpredictable and no one could be sure that they would live to be a hundred years old.

Looking at his granddaughter who was so anxious that tears were about to fall, Lu Jingmo felt that there was probably something serious that he didn't know about.

"Huanzhu, tell the truth to your grandfather, why couldn't your grandfather die earlier?"

Xie Huanzhu frowned, scratched his head, and said after a moment of deliberation: "Grandfather, if something happens to you, my sister will be very sad. Once she is sad, she will probably lose her mind, and once she loses her mind, she will probably..."

"Destroy the world?" Lu Jingmo continued her words. He was just teasing her, but who would have thought that she would actually nod seriously.

"Yes, so, Grandfather, you must live well and not make my sister sad and upset, making her feel that no one loves her."

Lu Jingmo was shocked. If Ba Ge said this, he would have just thought it was a joke.

But Huanzhu is a cultivator, and she knows much more than other people. So when she says this, we have to take it seriously.

"Huanzhu, tell grandpa how Xiaoyuer will destroy the world?"

Xie Huanzhu didn't want to hide it, so she told him that land fish can absorb various gases.

Lu Jingmo was shocked. He already knew that Xiao Yuer could absorb some kind of resentment, but he didn't think much about it at that time. He just thought it was a kind of her practice.

Who would have thought that the little fish could even absorb the vitality of humans and plants? This is too unbelievable.

The ability is against the will of heaven, I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse.

Forget it, just try to live! It would be better to live as an old monster and spend more time with the child who lacks love.

He looked at Huanzhu and assured her, "Grandfather understands. I will take good care of myself and strive to live a long life."

Hearing this, Xie Huanzhu smiled happily.

In the evening, in a tattered and miserable state, the limping Taoist priest walked towards the village with a cane.

He walked and muttered as if he were talking madly.

"Something is wrong. It's so wrong. Something is wrong with this world. I need to confirm it again."

"We're here. It's the room in front. Many years ago, a girl's fate was determined here. It was a phoenix fate, but it was a fake phoenix fate that only lasted for one day."

He threw away his crutches and staggered towards the house. When he reached the door, he looked around carefully and counted quickly with his fingers.

Then a smile appeared on his face, followed by an unreadable expression.

"how could this be?"

"Many years ago, this was clearly the home of a girl who was only destined to be a phoenix in one day. How come this place now shows a star general?"

"Could it be that the little girl changed her fate and became a female general?"

Thinking of this, he shook his head vigorously, "Impossible, although that girl has a life of a phoenix, she is a selfish person. She will never go to the battlefield and put herself in danger."

He pushed aside the messy beggar's hair, took a deep breath, and wanted to find out what was going on. He had to see the man in person.

"Tuk, Tuk, Tuk."

There was a knock on the door. The old woman who was washing dishes by the well in the yard heard the sound and called into the house, "Sister Liu, someone is here. Please open the door."

"Hey, here we come!"

An old woman came out of the house, muttering, "It's almost dark, why are you still visiting?"

The moment she opened the door, a pig-headed face came into view. She was startled and took a few steps back.

After she recovered from the shock, she patted her chest in fear and glared at the person who came. "Wait, there are still some leftovers. I'll get them for you."

Without waiting for the person outside to speak, the door slammed shut again.

"Who is it?" the dishwasher asked casually.

"He's an old beggar. His face has been beaten like a pig's head. He looks quite pitiful. The leftovers in the kitchen are just right for him to eat."

The old woman said this as she walked towards the kitchen.

Inside the room, Zhang Hao heard the conversation outside, laughed disdainfully, and muttered in a low voice, "Evil woman, do you still have such a conscience?"

Looking at the legs tied with chains, Zhang Hao kicked them hard a few times and the table was overturned.

The old woman who was carrying the washed dishes to the kitchen heard the voice and shook her head helplessly, "You really don't know how to appreciate your blessings, and you are doing stupid things!"

The old woman who had just opened the door walked out carrying a bowl of corn porridge and two steamed buns.

"This is for you to eat. Once you're done, leave quickly."

The Taoist priest did not take the bowl, but looked inside for a few seconds, and the old woman's face turned cold.

"Don't be so stupid, you beggar. You can't offend this family."

When the Taoist heard this, he knew that she had misunderstood, so he quickly took the bowl, said thank you, and then explained.

"Old lady, I am not actually a beggar, but a Taoist priest. Many years ago, I once read the fortune for a girl from this family."

Old woman?

Mrs. Liu looked at the beggar in front of her and became furious. He was so old, but he dared to call her old woman.

Just as he was about to lose his temper, a voice came from behind him, "You said you are a Taoist priest, and you have read the fortune of this family's little girl before?"

The old woman who had just washed the dishes came out with a strange expression on her face. When Mrs. Liu heard her question, her expression also changed.

After looking at each other, the two men invited the Taoist priest in.
