Chapter 1355 Prisoners on the Road
"The strongman should be Lietian Jingang Shi Xiong. He has the strength to tear tigers and leopards apart. But he's a righteous man, forthright and well-connected."
"If it came to killing, he wouldn't even need to lift a finger. A mere cough from him, and countless people would be willing to do it for him."
When Feng Ruoxing's gaze fell on the last person, he shook his head slightly. "I've never seen that old man before. Should we get Xiao Chengzi to check his background?"
I nodded. "Tell Xiao Chengzi to hurry. We need to know before we enter Guimen Mountain. I have a very bad feeling about that old man."
Feng Ruoxing agreed, "I feel the same way."
"The girl from the Reincarnation Division is called Zhu Xiaoyu, Zhu Zining's adopted daughter. She has received Zhu Zining's true teachings and is said to have been internally designated as the next Holy Maiden of the Reincarnation Division."
"Wen Yile, most likely, was sent by Zhu Zining specifically to support Zhu Xiaoyu."
I nodded slightly, and led the Painting Immortal towards Shi Fei Daoren.
Someone from the Beiyan Yungui faction sneered, "Does Liangjie Tang not even have a torture device? What's the point of coming out here looking so pathetic?"
I thought Beiyan Yungui was having another episode, but when I turned my head, I saw that it was actually someone from the Reincarnation Division who had spoken.
That person had a toad-like face with bulging eyes and an unusually large mouth. I couldn't tell if it was a man or a woman.
Seeing me looking him up and down, he raised his chin and said, "Don't you know who your grandpa is? Let me tell you, I'm Qi Luling, known as the Little Flood Dragon. Now do you know who I am?"
I stared at him for a long time, then turned to Feng Ruoxing and asked, "Who is this person? Have you heard of him?"
Feng Ruoxing said, "His nickname is Toad Mouth. He has no other skills, just a big mouth. He acts like he has a vendetta against everyone, as if they killed his father or stole his wife. As soon as he sees someone, he starts croaking. He's not dangerous, just disgusting."
"He also has another nickname, Lalagou."
"There's a saying: 'Just because the Lalagou is chirping, doesn't mean we'll stop farming, right?' That's where his nickname comes from."
"People in the art world treat him like a Lalagou. The meaning is: An ant-like thing that insists on thinking of itself as a flood dragon. Thinks that a few croaks from him can summon wind and rain, or turn beans into soldiers. In reality, he's just spitting on the ground."
Feng Ruoxing didn't bother to lower his voice.
Not only was Toad Mouth not angry, but he even said proudly, "That's right! To tell you the truth, I came here today specifically to disgust you."
"You can say I'm useless, you can say I'm nothing. But in my heart, I'm higher than you. Not just a little higher, but a hundred times, a thousand times higher."
"Your grandpa's long mouth is just to point out the world to you. You don't need to say, 'If you're so capable, then you come do it.'"
"Grandpa doesn't listen! Grandpa can't do anything, that's okay. What's important is that I can pick out your faults."
"To tell you the truth, I've been studying your Liangjie Tang for more than a day or two, just to find fault with you."
"Let me tell you, your grandpa has the knowledge, I think none of you are good enough!"
I glanced at Feng Ruoxing and shook my head. "If it were a normal person, I'd be in the mood to argue with him. But let's just forget it! There's no need to get angry with a mental patient!"
I was being sincere.
I can understand harming others to benefit oneself. After all, throwing away your dignity can be exchanged for some benefit. Even if it's just earning a few extra coppers, you can still buy a little more wine.
Harming others without benefiting oneself, even without elevating one's own status, and still tirelessly disgusting people, that's a disease. Sooner or later, someone will have to cure it.
This Toad Mouth is a severe case. He even knows he's sick and treats his illness as cultivation. I really can't muster any interest in fighting him.
"I think so too!" Feng Ruoxing said to Wang Xiaohuan, "Huanzi, pay attention to that Toad Mouth."
"He tried to eat swan meat a few times before and failed, and now he can't stand seeing women anymore."
"If a woman is beautiful, he'll yell. If a woman isn't beautiful, he'll still yell. If a man has many women around him, he'll yell. If a man has no women around him, he can still yell a few times."
"The most bizarre time was when he ran to the Shaolin Temple gate to mock the monks for not being able to get wives."
Just as Wang Xiaohuan was listening in stunned silence, Toad Mouth took a few steps forward and put his left cheek in front of me. "Doesn't sound good, does it? If it doesn't sound good, then hit me! Hit me here!"
Seeing that I didn't move, Toad Mouth put his right cheek forward and patted his own cheek, "Or, you can hit me here."
"If you don't hit me, I'll look down on you!"
I raised my hand and slapped him. I used hidden force in my hand, and the slap sent the other party's face flying with blood and flesh.
The other party stumbled back a meter or two, but was still able to speak, "Divine Arrest, Arrest Divine... Shi Fei Daoren... Their Liangjie Tang is breaking the rules, Liangjie Tang is breaking the rules! Come and see! They're really breaking the rules!"
