"In ancient times, there were miners who were blind because of long-term underground work, and deaf people were also blind. When I was young, I couldn't enter the stone forest, so I used cotton cloth to plug my ears. When everyone talked to me, they first wrote down with pen and ink, and when I learned how to speak After a long period of time, my hearing has weakened, and I entered the chaotic stone forest again, and the stone sound is no longer a problem to me.” Mr. Heng drank his tea slowly, his voice was so calm that he seemed to be talking about someone else’s thing.

Gu Tianyue's indifferent expression finally changed. It was hard for anyone to believe these words, so he blurted out, "Why do you want to hurt yourself like this?"

Elder Heng sighed, "The ancestors set up a double formation in the mountains to prevent outsiders from entering. However, over the years, there are always people who enter the formation for various reasons. If someone is lucky enough to pass through the fog, the next one waiting for him is It is a deadly rock forest. Our family chose this mountain to live in because of avoiding the world, but we don’t have the power to kill people. The way of heaven has cause and effect, and the way of the world is impermanent. I am afraid that the people of our family will be responsible for killing too much, and one day they will be punished. If you can avoid the catastrophe of extermination, what's the harm in sacrificing my own ear?"

Because Gu Feimo followed Gu Tianyue, the two of them could almost be said to have seen the ugliest side of people's hearts, greed, indifference, selfishness, cruelty, and they had ways to deal with such people.Even though he saw an old man in this peaceful and simple village who was as noble as a saint, he didn't know what to do for a while.

"You...you didn't struggle a little bit?" Gu Feimo said at a loss for words.

"How could there be no struggle?" Old Heng shook his head, "Not to mention that when I was young, my heart was fluctuating and I was greedy for the good things in the world, but I will never walk out of this mountain in my life. All I see are simple and kind villagers. People will lie, no one will do evil things, if you want to protect such a beautiful thing, even if you hesitate, it will disappear immediately."

Gu Tianyue caressed the teacup with his fingers, thought for a while, and couldn't help but smile with relief, and said, "The most difficult thing in the world is to sacrifice. The nobleness of the king is worthy of my heart."

Old Heng said in a relaxed voice, "I only hope that the tribe can live in peace forever."

Gu Tianyue nodded, "This king promises that your clan will not worry about war in this life."

Gu Feimo understands that Gu Tianyue can be said to be No.1 in the world today, if he says there is no, then there really is no.

Li Ping's hands and feet were numb, and then his face turned red with excitement, and he ran away dancing.

The guards outside the door saw it and pretended not to, because they were also eavesdropping...

"Every day! I don't know what to say." Li Ping ran up to Su He, speaking incoherently.

Su He looked at him silently, "You don't need to say anything." Anyway, he could ask the other guards to know what happened.

"No, no, I must say it." Li Ping took a deep breath, finally calmed down, and said, "Do you know the reason why that old... man is deaf?"

Su He raised his eyebrows at Li Ping's sudden change of address, and asked, "Why?"

Li Ping's eyes lit up, and he said frightenedly, "Guess!"

"..." Su He silently turned his head away, not going to talk to him anymore.

"Don't be like this. If you don't listen to me, go tell someone." Li Ping held Su He's arm tightly, and said everything he heard.

After Su He listened, he stared at the ground in a daze.

Originally, Li Ping was thinking about Su He's surprised expression, but seeing his expression, he could only comfort him, "Are you out of shock?"

Su He stood up abruptly, looked at the bamboo house faintly visible in the distance, and suddenly smiled, "I'm really convinced."

He can imagine, in a small bamboo house, a standing guard, a sitting regent, and an old man opposite them, slowly stroking his long white beard, gently and gently solving a possible extermination danger.

Li Ping also stood up, patted Su He on the shoulder, and said, "Haha, I admire it too."

Although both of them admired each other, they didn't admire only one point. Su He stroked his forehead without a word, and drew away from Li Ping's hand on his shoulder, "Let's walk around and have a look."

Li Ping nodded in reconsideration.

The two didn't walk for a while, and a group of children surrounded them first.Some people held the melons and fruits sent by their parents, but most of them looked at Su He and Li Ping eagerly and curiously.

The two were very good at dealing with children. Li Ping changed his voice and told them cross talk, which made the children clap their hands.

Su He picked wild flowers and grasses on the roadside, and made garlands and grasshoppers for them. Every child had one, and no one was short of it.

"What are you doing?" A sudden roar broke the happy atmosphere, Heng Qingshan strode angrily, and yelled fiercely at the children as soon as he came, "Go home for me."

The children were frightened and ran away in a hurry.

It was quiet again around Su He and Li Ping.

Heng Qingshan glared at the two of them and said, "Restraint me, don't talk about anything."

"We didn't talk about anything outside the mountain." Su He shrugged, looked at Heng Qingshan, and doubted, "You can't be the most vicious person in this village, right? For example, children listen to you as a nighttime story?"

"What night story?" Heng Qingshan frowned, "You really didn't say anything? If the villagers want to go outside because of you, be careful of my fists." As he spoke, he compared his fists.

Su He said helplessly, "We didn't have any malicious intentions, and we didn't lie to you. Even if we had any malicious intentions, we dismissed them just now. Why did you take every precaution against us?"

Heng Qingshan said bluntly, "You can't trust the words of foreigners."

"..."

So you turn the words around and listen to them?

Heng Qingshan frowned again, "Also, what do you mean by what you said just now, what do you mean by being malicious just now?"

Su He shrugged and walked forward. Maybe the villagers who came into contact with the wire here would make him feel better.

Anyone with good intentions who is treated like a donkey will not be in a good mood, and Li Ping doesn't want to talk to him.

But Heng Qingshan became persistent, chasing after them and asked, "What do you mean by being malicious?"

Su He thought for a while, then said, "The people here are simple and kind-hearted."

Heng Qingshan doubted, "Are you complimenting?"

Su He glanced at him sideways and said, "Besides your strength, who can lift a huge boulder, is there anyone else in your village who has this ability?"

Heng Qingshan shook his head.

"Yes, this is the reason why your master accepted you as an apprentice, and also taught you that people are sinister." Su He nodded, "And the villagers here live comfortably, don't know what fighting is, and have never seen blood. We The lord risked his life and death, and walked all the way, feeling angry and uneasy. If you went to obstruct it, I'm afraid that the anger in his heart will already be aroused. Although there are nearly 200 villagers in your village, twice as many as us, none of us guards are martial arts Gao Qiang, one against a hundred? And your master, first showed weakness, and then comforted all of us with his own deafness."

Su He walked and talked, but felt something was wrong, turned around and saw that the two people behind him had already fallen into the distance, and opened their mouths together.

Heng Qingshan's face was pale.

Li Ping was incoherent again, "My lord is really planning to..."

Su He took a look at Heng Qingshan, "So, treat people with kindness, and treat things with peace. If you are as fierce as you, your family would have been wiped out a long time ago. Do you understand, Hengshan?"

Heng Qingshan was so surprised that he couldn't recover for a long time, until Su He walked a long way, he said angrily, "My name is not Hengshan!"
