I am a living immortal.
Chapter 230 Something is wrong
The roar, which sounded like a tiger's, did not last long.
Su Mu listened to someone discussing
"Is this the third time this week?"
"This isn't the third time, it's clearly the fourth time. I don't know what's going on lately, but it's getting more frequent. Do you think there really is a vicious tiger waiting to eat people?"
"Pfft, pfft, don't talk nonsense. Is that something you can actually say? Don't listen to those people's nonsense. If there really was a vicious tiger eating people, it would have jumped out and eaten them long ago. How come we haven't heard of it?"
"It's not that I haven't heard of it, it does exist, but it was... suppressed." The old man said softly, pointing to the sky.
"Just take care of yourself... It's not okay to do this so frequently every day."
"Who says it isn't?"
"I've also heard that this is the tiger becoming a god, and that this roar is a strange phenomenon. It's so real. I even heard the waiter at the restaurant say that a five-meter-tall tiger could swallow a human with one mouth."
"He's about to become a god, yet he's still eating people. What nonsense."
"Then who knows..."
The two of them left after talking. Su Mu had a strange look on his face. He had just heard it. It was not the roar of a tiger, but the sound of a gust of wind passing through the valley.
He shook his head and continued walking along the street without thinking too much. It was very unique. Because Su Mu was leading a sheep, several people wanted to ask the price, but they stopped when they saw Su Mu's Taoist robe.
Fortunately, they stopped, otherwise the old goat would be ready and poised to go. The Taoist robe was really conspicuous. Although Su Mu didn't care, everyone who passed by him would take a look. This made Su Mu feel like a rare animal. Haven't people here seen a Taoist priest before?
Su Mu finally decided to change her clothes.
So he walked into an alley, and when he came out again, his clothes were different.
With this change, not many people paid attention to him anymore. Su Mu found a restaurant and prepared to have a good meal. There were quite a lot of restaurants in Yinxiao Town. When Su Mu was thinking about which one to eat at, there was a commotion in front of the restaurant.
"Get out of here...you can't get in here either."
The waiter kicked out a man dressed in rags, looking like a beggar. "Anyone wants to come in here. If you want to eat, go there. Maybe you can find something hot if you look around."
The waiter pointed to an alley. There was a strange smell coming from the alley. It was not unpleasant, but a mixture of many smells. The alley was filled with the泔水 buckets that the restaurant used to process the leftover food of its customers.
The disheveled man stared at the restaurant.
This made the waiter even more impatient: "Look, look, what are you looking at? Is that something you can see... Get lost..."
The waiter's harsh words still made many customers frown.
Although he didn't help, he lifted his foot out again after just entering the hotel and prepared to eat at another place.
The waiter glared at the beggar fiercely and explained, "My dear guests, you may not know that it's not that we don't want him to come in and eat. Although our boss may not be very kind, he won't make things difficult for a beggar."
"Just a while ago, some old customers should know that he came here. Not only was he dirty, but our boss let him in. Of course, there was no good wine or food, but he did give him a few hot steamed buns and a few side dishes."
"But this guy, not only didn't appreciate it, he even went crazy in the restaurant, saying things like 'a tiger eating people' and 'run away!' He made it impossible for everyone to have a peaceful meal in the restaurant. We couldn't stop him. Even though he had a crippled leg, he still had a lot of strength and turned the restaurant upside down."
"In the end, it attracted the government officials. Tell me, is it unfair for us? Should we let him in?"
"If you ask me, this guy is here to cause trouble."
It seemed that the waiter's words touched the beggar's nerves. The beggar, who had been quiet just now, suddenly became crazy, shouting, pushing several people away and running to the end of the street.
"The tiger is devouring people... Run... Run... No one can escape... Not even one can escape..."
The waiter pointed at the beggar and said, "Look, I'm not talking nonsense."
Someone in the crowd of onlookers immediately recognized the person running away as a beggar.
“So it’s him…”
"Oh? Do you know him?"
"How could I not recognize him? Isn't this the idiot who brought the young master of the Zhang family back?"
"Young Master Zhang?"
"That's right, a poor unlucky fellow. The Zhang family's young master is destined to be unlucky. The Zhang family has tried countless methods but to no avail. Moreover, with this young master around, the Zhang family has not been destroyed. That's because the family has a strong financial foundation. There's nothing else they can do. They can't bear to kill him, but they can't keep him at home either. So what else can they do? Travel."
"Travel?" Many people were puzzled.
"I don't know where I heard this recipe, it's a trick to ward off evil spirits."
"No one who was fooled has ever come back alive. Seeing that they can't fool people nearby, they can only fool those who are far away."
"This time it's different. Both of them are back. But let me tell you, God sees what we do. Right after Young Master Zhang returned, the Zhang family ran into trouble. All the caravans out there lost contact, the goods were gone, and the money was gone. And that very night, all forty-three members of the same family died. They say it was an enemy, but I think it was retribution."
"This guy escaped, but his brain is not good, so he became like this. He is also a pitiful person..."
Many people lamented.
But when people ran away, the excitement disappeared, and people dispersed.
Those who were eating were eating, those who were passing by were passing by. Although they sighed, they just listened to it for fun and didn't take it seriously at all. What kind of evil was it? The whole family was wiped out...
If you lied to someone and died for your son, and you are still alive today, it would be a miracle. It doesn't seem so weird to others.
Su Mu also remembered that this was the person he met at the border. It had only been over a month since they last met, and he had become like this? He had always thought that this person was going to be unlucky, but he didn't expect that his end would be so miserable.
"Sir? Dinner?"
The waiter saw Su Mu standing in front of the store and asked.
Su Mu frowned and looked in the direction the man had just left. It was normal for the evil spirit to disappear after a person died, but a strange thought flashed through his mind just now, which meant that the matter was not as simple as he thought. For someone at his level, it was impossible for it to be an illusion, but he did not find anything unusual after observing the whole Yinxiao Town.
He heard the waiter's question and shook his head, "No."
Then he walked quickly in the direction the man had just left. The waiter didn't take it seriously. He patted his clothes and walked back to the inn.
At this moment, both the waiter who turned around and Su Mu who was walking quickly stopped.
