Chapter 456 When People Are In The Upper World, All They Have Left Is Face.
The next morning, it was just dawn, and the light blue sky was still dotted with a few sparse remaining stars.
There is a big sun rising from the sky. In an instant, thousands of golden lights are like sharp blades splitting the green curtain. The rising sun shines on all things, bringing infinite brilliance and vitality.
In a remote village, the crowing of cocks and the barking of dogs made the whole village lively, and Yu Shiba slowly woke up at this time.
"I haven't experienced such a peaceful life for a long time, but it's quite interesting."
A smile appeared on the corner of Yu Shiba's mouth. Listening to the crowing of chickens and dogs outside the house, he felt that his mind was clear, and he had a feeling of being washed away.
I sensed the condition of my body and found that it had improved a lot after a night's rest. However, my body was still full of devastation, and nine out of ten of its powerful energy had been lost. If you want to activate the rest, you can naturally do it, but it will definitely happen. Bringing secondary harm to the body is not worth the gain.
Yu Shiba propped himself up on the bed and sat up. His movements were as slow as an old man's, but after all, he relied on his own mobility.
He got out of bed, put on his boots, opened the door and walked out.
The first thing that comes into view is an ordinary farmyard. The low fence is made of mud. It looks a bit dilapidated, but the yard is clean. It is obvious that the owner takes care of it regularly.
"Father, are you awake?"
A familiar voice came into my ears. Xiao Ku's voice was very clear, even a little deliberately loud, as if he was proving something to outsiders.
"Well!"
Yu Shiba responded softly, looked at the stone pier in the yard, and walked over.
Xiao Ku quickly wiped his hands on his body randomly, and then ran over to help him.
Yu Shiba did not refuse. After being helped to sit down under the stone pier, he suddenly heard a slight discussion.
The sound came from outside the wall, and it was several women talking.
"This stinky girl is really blessed. I thought she was a bastard who has a mother but no father, but I didn't expect that her father actually came to find her."
"I saw it from a distance when I was rescuing people yesterday. That man's appearance is really extraordinary. No wonder Ku'er Niang was able to remain a widow for him for so long."
"Yes, judging by his clothes, he might be a high-ranking official. That boy Zhang San has been bullying this helpless child for many years. I don't know if he will be liquidated in the future."
"Goudan, your family seems to be occupying other people's land. I told you not to be greedy for petty gains. Dr. Chen was such a good person when he was alive. You are so embarrassed."
"Bah, that's my family's land. Besides, if I don't take it, do you think the Gao family will let go of this big piece of fat?"
"Yes, the second eldest son of the Gao family is the chief bookkeeper of the county. This family seems to be gentle and harmless on weekdays, but the evil things they do in private are nothing like Zhang Sanshao..."
"..."
The discussion gradually faded away, and the people who spoke seemed to go to work in the fields together.
Yu Shiba looked at Xiao Ku, who was wearing patched clothes, and said: "People in the world always bully the poor and love the rich. I think that although you are optimistic on the surface, there is a lingering depression between your eyebrows. I want to deal with those who bullied you in the past." The people are quite resentful, what are you going to do?"
In the air in the yard, there was the smoke of burning firewood, mixed with a faint fragrance. Yu Shiba didn't recognize this smell, but it gave him the feeling that it was similar to some kind of poisonous weed on the earth, so he asked this question. .
Hearing this, the innocent smile on Xiaoku's face froze slightly, "Father, don't you think I should be resentful?"
Yu Shiba shook his head slightly: "Don't persuade others to be kind if you haven't suffered from them. If I have suffered from you, I may not be as kind as you... I have no intention of stopping you, I am just curious."
Yu Shiba did not think that Xiao Ku was a simple and kind-hearted person as he appeared on the surface.
Her mother has been dead for a few years. If she was really naive, she would have been eaten up to nothing by the malicious villagers. Even Li Qiang, who sent the rabbit here yesterday, looked at Xiao Ku They are also full of calculations.
Although that kind of calculation was well concealed, it could not be hidden from Yu Shiba.
Xiao Ku breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Yu Shiba didn't intend to go into details. She looked at Yu Shiba's face and felt that that charming face seemed to be embedded with two black holes that could swallow people's will, making her unconsciously He looked away, his face slightly red.
Yu Shiba's gaze was so profound, with wisdom that seemed to penetrate everything, and warmth like the warm sun, that she almost revealed all her secrets and plans.
But in fact, it is inappropriate for the second person to know about that kind of thing.
Xiao Ku turned around and walked to the kitchen in a panic. Soon there was the sound of cooking, and then the smell of meat spread throughout the yard.
She was frying the rabbit that Li Qiang sent last night.
"The little guy has quite a strong willpower!"
Yu Shiba looked at the kitchen in surprise. He knew what he was capable of.
In his heyday, he was not only able to hear the voices of others, he was also able to override the laws. He could almost create things out of thin air, and for ordinary people, he could control their thoughts at will.
There are many things that ordinary people simply cannot refuse as long as they want to know or ask others to do something, even if it is just a casual inquiry without any spiritual guidance.
That was absolute crushing at the soul level.
Even though he has lost his cultivation now, that "power" is still there. Let's not talk about anything else. Just talking about yesterday, if he had scolded Li Qiang with anger, I am afraid that the other party would be split into pieces and die on the spot.
Now he is the owner of the "Face Fruit". As long as he is an ordinary person, he will rarely refuse to give face to his request, even if he wants the other party to die.
But the girl named Xiaoku resisted telling his secret when he asked her, which made him feel quite interesting.
"In the final analysis, it's just a mortal's calculation..."
He murmured softly, not paying too much attention to it, but closed his eyes and began to adjust his body.
After a night's window, the absorbed spiritual energy returned to the vacated area. He took a deep breath, and in an instant, spiritual energy from several miles around swept over and was swallowed into his body by the whale.
Along with the spiritual energy, there was also the nascent energy contained in the morning glow, which was full of endless vitality. He absorbed all of it and turned it into the material for his own recovery.
"If this continues, within a month, I will be back to my prime."
Yu Shiba opened his eyes, his pupils turned scarlet, and three magatama emerged, but they quickly disappeared, and his pupils returned to ink color, leaving only a deep color.
As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. It is normal to have difficulty recovering at the beginning. Once the body's self-repair mechanism is fully activated, everything will be solved easily.
He thought again, and countless invisible Uzumaki seemed to be generated outside his body, but this time what he absorbed was the spiritual energy and Chuyang vitality within dozens of miles.
After drinking some tea, Yu Shiba stood up from the stone pier. At this moment, he looked extremely healthy, without the weakness he had just before.
At this moment, the door to the yard was suddenly kicked open.
"Chen Kuhe, you pay for Laozi's chicken!"
A man with a hooked nose and inverted triangular eyes walked into the courtyard with a sinister look on his face, smelling of alcohol all over his body.
When he saw the frowning Yu Shiba, his expression was slightly startled.
