Chapter 1064 No Face to Go Back
Tangning shared a room with Mo Ye and Song Tianyou. After a brief rest, they went out to eat.
Maybe there was someone like Mo Ye who didn't look close to her. Even if Tangning resumed her women's clothing, no one dared to think about her. They ate on the second floor of a restaurant on the street. After they were full, they drank some tea and chatted for a while, then they heard the sound of shouting and cursing coming from the door of the restaurant opposite.
"Go, go! Why drink wine if you don't have money? Let's go! Don't stop me from doing business!" The shopkeeper of the restaurant waved an old man in shabby clothes.
The old man staggered and was pushed back a few steps. He fell to the ground and grinned. He smelled of alcohol, his eyes were dim, and his face was flushed after drinking. His gray hair was slightly messy. The clothes are full of patches, and the boots under the feet are also worn out, revealing a few toes.
He sat down on the ground and lay down on his side, holding a wine jar in one hand and grinning: "Isn't it just a jar of wine? Think, think about the old man, I can drink as much as I want, hiccup..."
The old man hiccupped and fell asleep there with his eyes closed, but because the place where he slept was in front of the business door of the restaurant, the shopkeeper saw the old man lying on the ground blocking him from doing business, so he stepped forward and kicked him with his toe.
"Get up! Get up! Sleep and go farther away, don't block my business."
However, the old man was drunk, and when the shopkeeper kicked him, he lay on his back in a big shape on the ground. The empty wine jar rolled out of his hands and rolled on the ground, making a crisp sound.
"I can't go back... hiccup... I have no face to go back... I have no face to go back..." The old man murmured, he was obviously drunk and his eyes were closed, but tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
The shopkeeper wanted to kick him hard, but he didn't expect to see the sad and painful expression on the old man's face. At such an age, he was crying when he was drunk, and sighed when he was about to kick.
"Come here, two people, carry this old man to the corner over there, don't hinder the business." As soon as the voice fell, the shopkeeper ignored him, but turned and walked inside.
When Mo Ye saw Tangning looking at the scene over there, his deep eyes paused on the old man, and said, "Ordinary people envy cultivators, but in fact, the realm of cultivating immortals is also extremely cruel. If he was in the mortal world, he would be a top existence among mortals, and even the royal family and nobles would have to look at him three points, but in this world of cultivating immortals, there are strong people like forests, and foundation-building monks abound. It is already good to be alive .”
His voice paused, and he looked at the old man who was carried to the corner, and said: "This old man has no long-term possessions, and he is not young, but he is only a sixth-level foundation-building monk, and he has old diseases. It seems that he should be a loose man Xiu, there is no family resources to help behind him, no pills to help him, he is already hopeless at this age, and the rest of his life is wasted and only waiting for the end of his life."
Tangning withdrew her gaze and said slowly, "This world is inherently cruel, and it respects the strong. For the world, isn't the purpose of cultivating immortals to become stronger?"
Song Tianyou, who was sitting next to him, listened to what they said, looked at Mo Ye, and then at his master, his little face was still ignorant.
They sat for a while, then settled their bills and went downstairs. When walking on the street, the old man who was carried to the corner stood up unsteadily, muttering: "Wine... wine..." With swaying steps, he walked towards the wine shop again.
