Chapter 4 People Are the Cruelest

Since the conversation with Wu Chen in the study, Wu Fangming never asked him a husband again.Instead, I bought a lot of books and accompanied and taught them in person.

Wu Chen just immersed himself in the sea of ​​books happily.Wu Fangming also asked Wu Chen to learn cooking skills while studying.The euphemistic name is: this is a handicraft handed down from family, and one must not forget one's roots.Wu Chen had no choice but to obey.

In fact, the reason why Wu Fangming asked Wu Chen to learn cooking is because Wu Chen has been asking him about cultivating immortals recently.

Wu Chen learned from a practice anecdote that there is such a thing as cultivating immortals in this world. It describes that cultivators can live the same life as the heavens and the earth, can fly to the sky and hide from the earth, turn rivers and seas, and move stars and moons. These things have caused a huge impact on his little heart. .He repeatedly questioned, but Wu Fangming never gave a positive answer.

Wu Fangming naturally knew about the existence of immortal cultivators.This Ziyunzhou is controlled by a cultivating sect called Lengyuemen.And Wu Fangming, as a small boss with some family property, could think of ways to let Wu Chen take the road of cultivating immortals.

But Wu Fangming didn't want Wu Chen to go that way.He has been running a restaurant for so many years, and he has received many guests from all over the world. From some of the guests, he knows that Xiuxian is just a nice word, but it is actually very dangerous.From time to time, there is the danger of destroying the family, and there is a disaster of killing oneself at every turn.How could Wu Fangming be willing to send Wu Chen to cultivate immortals?

For Wu Fangming, if life is at stake, what is the use of longevity?Then what's the use of honoring the ancestors?He just wanted Wu Chen to spread his branches and leaves, to spend his life safely and become a rich man, with no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.So he came up with the idea of ​​letting Wu Chen learn to be a chef.Hope to use this to divert Wu Chen's thoughts.

Two years later, Wu Chen was ten years old, and his height had grown to about 1.5 meters.Xiao Hei still looks like a puppy, with drooping ears, and he hasn't grown up at all.The family is not surprised by this.

As the county seat of Yunluo County, Minglin City has nearly a million permanent residents, so places for leisure and entertainment are naturally indispensable.

There is a zoo in the east of Minglin City, a lamp lake in the west, a waterfall in the south, and a sea of ​​flowers in the north.These places are all places for people to play in their leisure time, and of course it costs money to go to these places.

Hearing that the zoo had a new batch of exotic animals, Wu Chen clamored to see it after seeing the zoo's publicity.Wu Fangming thought about it and agreed.

Early this morning, the couple made arrangements for the restaurant and took Wu Chen out.Wu Chen turned his head and whistled, and Xiao Hei ran to Wu Chen's side like a cloud of black smoke and jumped up and down, as if it also knew that it wanted to go out to play, and looked extraordinarily cheerful.

Wu Fangming yelled, "Xiao Hei! You idiot! Go back, it's not convenient for us to take you to the zoo."

Wu Fangming is really annoyed by this black dog. No matter what Wu Chen does, it follows him. When Wu Chen sleeps, he lies under the bed. When Wu Chen eats, he lies under the table. Even when he teaches Wu Chen to read, this little black dog The dog also squatted there with its dog ears watching, as if it was also listening to his lecture seriously, and he couldn't even chase him away, which was really annoying.

Xiao Hei drooped his ears, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, while wagging his tail, rubbed his mouth against Wu Chen's body, and whined, as if a child had been wronged and asked for candy.

Wu Chen raised his head: "Father, take Xiao Hei with you."

Wu Fangming frowned and said, "Pets are not allowed in the zoo."

Wu Chen: "Father, you're lying. The brochure says that pets are allowed, but it's just an extra fee. Dad, you won't be so stingy that you can't bear 300 star coins!"

Xiao Hei also yelled "Wow, woof" a few times.

Chen Xiufang said softly: "Chen'er, you can't talk to your father like this, you know?" After saying that, she glanced at Wu Fangming: "Take Xiao Hei with you, at most it will cost 300 star coins."

Star coin is a common currency in Star Luo Continent.The color is like silver, and the thickness is like copper coins.There are also stars and bars on the star coins. The stars and bars are like long bars, about eight centimeters long and two centimeters wide.

Stars and stripes are divided into three grades, one-star, two-star, and five-star.The length of the stars and stripes is the same, but the thickness is increased.Ten pennies are equal to one star bar.Twenty star coins are equal to two star bars.Fifty star coins are equal to five star bars.

There are also other names for stars and stripes, and those with one star and stripe are called door panels.The one with two stars is called small white fish, and the one with five stars is called big white fish.

Wu Fangming said helplessly: "What can a dog see? Why waste money?"

But Wu Fangming didn't worry too much about it, after all, 300 star coins was just a trivial matter to him.So the family of three got into their own carriage and went to the zoo.

The zoo is very large, divided into the outer layer, the middle layer, and the inner layer.The outer layer is full of common beasts and birds, such as some common lions and tigers.

The couple took Wu Chen and Xiao Hei to look at it from the outside first. Wu Chen was pulled by his father with his left hand, and his mother with his right hand. Xiao Hei had an iron mask on his mouth, and the iron chain was followed by Wu's father with his right hand. .

Wu Chen looked at the tiger and lion in the cage, raised his head and said to Chen Xiufang: "Mother, these animals are so pitiful."

Chen Xiufang smiled and asked, "Where are they pitiful?"

Wu Chen: "It is said in the book that the greatest happiness is freedom. If they lose their freedom, they are naturally very pitiful."

Chen Xiufang was stunned and didn't know how to answer Wu Chen's question. Fortunately, Wu Chen didn't delve into this question, so he went to see other animals with great interest.

Chen Xiufang and Wu Fangming looked at each other, and both heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that Wu Chen had asked many such seemingly simple and profound questions.Sometimes the couple are speechless when they are asked. They are helpless and have a headache, but at the same time they are very relieved, which can be regarded as painful and happy.

Wu Chen looked at it and then turned his head and asked, "Father, what did you say is the cruelest?"

Wu Fangming replied casually: "Lion and tiger!"

Wu Chen tilted his head: "No."

Wu Fangming asked: "Then what do you say is the cruelest?"

Wu Chen said without hesitation: "People are the cruelest!"

The couple stopped and looked at Wu Chen together when they heard the words, Wu Fangming asked, "Why do you say that?"

Wu Chen: "Look at the cruelest lions and tigers who have been imprisoned in iron cages. Isn't that person the cruelest?"

The couple looked at each other and stared blankly at Wu Chen, both of them were thinking in their hearts: What is this child thinking in his head?

A gentle voice exclaimed: "This child has a lot of roots of wisdom!"

Wu Fangming and his wife turned their heads and saw a middle-aged man in white standing behind the three of them with his hands behind his back and a smile.Just the right figure, with a simple bun, and a face with sharp edges and corners.When the breeze blew, the sleeves of the clothes swung lightly, giving off an aura of floating away from the dust.

Wu Fangming came back to his senses, cupped his fists and saluted: "Mr. Miao Zan. Children's lies, it can't be true."

The man in white smiled and said: "At a young age, you can think what others can't think, and think what others can't think, which shows his wisdom. This child is destined for me. I want to take this child as a disciple and follow me up the mountain to practice. The two of you agree how?"

Wu Fangming's heart tightened, he naturally understood what the other party meant by going up the mountain to practice.

Without waiting for the couple to answer, Wu Chen's eyes lit up and he asked urgently, "Mister is a fairy? Can you fly?"

The man in white smiled and nodded, his body slowly rose and floated in front of the three of them, then he stretched out his figure and went away in an instant, then made a beautiful turn in the air, and "shua" hovered in front of the three of them again.

Wu Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at him with admiration: "I am willing to worship you as my teacher."

After finishing speaking, he simply knelt down and bowed.
