Chapter 168 The Little Girl in the Sunset After driving for half a month, Chen Huaian and Lao Niu were already close to Longchang County. It was not known whether it was because Lao Niu's strength had improved or he had become more familiar with the road, but they had not been lost for a long time. "Old Cow, I realize we haven't been lost for a long time." "Moo." (Of course, don't you see who is leading the way?) "I really miss the time when I was lost. I could still talk to you then." "Moo." (I see you are bored.) "How do you know?" Chen Huaian asked with a smile. Lao Niu said nothing and looked at Chen Huaian as if he was a fool. Chen Huaian smiled and said, "There is a small town ahead. Let's go in and buy some things before we go on." "Moo." (We're out of seasonings, so buy some more cinnamon, star anise, etc.) "it is good." Chen Huaian and Lao Niu walked into the town. The town was very prosperous, with people coming and going, talking and laughing. "Qin Yun is in power and governs very well." Chen Huaian said in his heart. He won't stay here for too long, he will leave after buying something.
After Chen Huaian bought what he wanted, Lao Niu refused to leave. Seeing this, Chen Huaian asked, "Lao Niu, what are you doing? We have finished shopping, it's time to leave." "Moo." (Did you forget something?) Chen Huaian was puzzled, "I've already bought it, what else could I forget?" "Moo." (Where's my second uncle?) "So this is it. Let's go buy it." Chen Huaian smiled and shook his head. Indeed, they hadn't eaten beef for a long time since they left Shushan. On the way to find a beef shop, Chen Huaian opened the system panel. He hadn't looked at it for a long time. [Name: Chen Huaian, Age: 54] [Lifespan: 1355, Bones: Ordinary] [Kung Fu: LV25 Phantom Sword Technique (98%)] [Skill: No Return] [Level: LV25 (16/100)] 【Current effects: increase life span, dredge meridians, Drive away the tide and warm the body, improve your understanding, seek divination, ink and color, trace the flower of origin, the eye of the soul. 】 [Today’s lifespan increase: two hours] [Disease: epileptic laughter disorder, which can be gradually treated by Bie Wugui. Current treatment progress: 50%] The Eye of Soul is only available after Chen Huaian's epileptic laughter disease treatment degree reaches 50% and his level of Wugui reaches 25. The effect is a bit strange. [Eye of Life and Soul: When powerful, it can determine life and death, and erase souls. Normally, it can observe human souls, and can also observe all things, judge good and evil, and distinguish right from wrong. Range of effect: half a meter.] He thought this skill was good, because it allowed him to kill a good person without mistake and not wrongly accuse a bad person. Chen Huaian and Lao Niu went to look for a beef shop, but he was not sure if there was one, after all, a small town was not as good as a county town.
Chen Huaian and Lao Niu were strolling on the street when they suddenly heard a group of children cursing. "Ugly, ugly." Chen Huaian looked over and asked Lao Niu, "What happened there?" "Moo." (Eight children, about seven years old, surrounded a little girl and called her ugly. The little girl had a large birthmark on her face that extended to her shoulder.) Chen Huaian frowned when he heard this and said, "This is not a good idea." He flashed to the side of the little girl, and only at this moment did Chen Huaian notice the birthmark on the little girl's body. He activated the Eye of Soul. This was the first time he used this skill. He saw that the little girl's soul was pure and innocent, and that she was a very kind person. Her soul was glowing faintly. How could such a person be ugly? The little girl tightly grasped the corner of her clothes with both hands, looking very uneasy. Xiaohong Qiaohong was so ashamed by what those eight children said. When she saw Chen Huaian's sudden discovery, she was startled at first, and then as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, she looked at Chen Huaian with tears in her eyes, and her body unconsciously leaned towards Chen Huaian and hid behind him. When the eight children saw Chen Huaian suddenly appear, they thought he was an immortal. Their eyes were full of curiosity, but there was no awe in their eyes for the so-called immortal. "Big brother, are you an immortal?" a child asked. "Big brother, can you fly?" "Big brother, can you ride the clouds?"... The children asked questions one after another, but Chen Huaian didn't answer any of them. However, this did not alleviate the children's curiosity. They still asked, as if they had an inexplicable obsession with whether Chen Huaian was an immortal. "I'm not an immortal." Chen Huaian said. The group of children didn't believe it because they saw with their own eyes that Chen Huaian suddenly appeared in front of them. If he wasn't an immortal, then what could he be? The corners of Chen Huaian's mouth rose slightly, he knew that his goal had been achieved. "Since you say I am an immortal, let me ask you, why do you say she is ugly?" "Because she's ugly." "Yeah, my parents even said she was a monster." "My parents did too. They said she was the reincarnation of a monster." …… Chen Huaian listened to their words, and a ball of anger burned in his heart. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "How can there be such parents..." He looked at the little girl, whose eyes were red, as if she would cry at the next moment. Chen Huaian calmed himself down, looked at the group of children, and asked, "Have you ever seen the sunset?" After Chen Huaian finished speaking, the group of children seemed very excited and said they had seen it one after another. "So do you think it's beautiful?" Chen Huaian asked again. The children answered in unison: "Beautiful!"
"But isn't the mark on her body like the sunset? Why do you think she is ugly? She just put the mark of the sunset on her body, so she is actually very beautiful." After Chen Huaian finished speaking, the children looked at the little girl seriously, and the little girl was at a loss what to do under their gazes. "Yes, it really is the sunset!" "My parents are lying!" "Yes, my parents are liars! I will never talk to them again!" …… The children were all saying that their parents were lying. Suddenly one of them said this, and Chen Huaian couldn't help but smile. "My sister is more beautiful than the sunset glow, because the sunset glow only appears in the evening, while my sister's sunset glow is always there." "Thank you, thank you." The little girl hadn't yet reacted to their transformation and she stuttered a little, but her complexion had improved a lot. "That's right. Remember, beauty is never a definition word, but an adjective." After Chen Huaian finished speaking, he couldn't help but shook his head, "Why should I tell them this? They are still young and may not understand." Chen Huaian felt that he had achieved his goal. When he was about to leave, another child spoke up, "Beauty is not just about appearance. Am I right? Brother Immortal." Chen Huaian smiled from the bottom of his heart, walked over and touched his head, and said, "Yes." "So what are you going to do next?" Chen Huaian asked with a smile. After Chen Huaian finished speaking, the group of children ran to the little girl and bent down. The little girl was overwhelmed by their sudden action and unconsciously grabbed Chen Huaian's clothes and held them in her hands. "Sister Wanxia, I'm sorry!" The children apologized one after another, and the little girl finally smiled, "It's okay." Seeing this, Chen Huaian took out a bottle and said, "Come on, those who admit their mistakes and correct them are good children. I'll give each of you a candy." "Thank you, Immortal Brother." The children happily took the so-called candies from Chen Huaian's hands. He walked to the little girl, patted her head gently, and then disappeared in an instant. "Wow, Brother Immortal is gone." …… (End of this chapter)
