There's a Madman Sharpening His Knife at Night

Because Kong Kukai's speed was much faster than that of Lu Hu and the other two, and he had to rush back to the temple to take charge, in order to prevent the planner from having a back-up plan.

So they left first. Before leaving, Kong Kong made it clear to Lu Hu that he should go to Rudraksha Temple to find him. By then, he would have something important that needed to be handed over to him.

After saying that, he and Kukai walked away quickly.

Chunhui City is devastated, with broken walls and remnants everywhere you look. Most of the entire city has been reduced to ruins.

Only a circle of houses near the city wall is still standing, but it is also in danger and may collapse at any time.

As for the people in the city who survived the massacre, they were almost like ghosts wandering among the ruins of the city.

The whole person was in a stupid state, as if they were in a state of sleepwalking. Only a few of them found the location of their homes and saw that their homes no longer existed. Then they fell to their knees as if they had just woken up from a dream. Let out a shrill wail.

Tears could no longer flow from their dry eyes.

Although they survived the disaster, no one felt lucky.

In the days that followed, they all became homeless. As they lingered for the rest of their lives, it was already foreseeable that they would be followed by endless grief and suffering, tormenting them endlessly.

Lu Hu was walking in the city and saw such a tragic situation. For a moment, he felt that he was back in Dingbei City.

The journey along the way was shocking.

Having Lu Hu take care of people living and dying like this, a dark cloud could not help but fill his heart.

Everyone has a feeling of compassion, and everyone shares this feeling when things harm their own kind.

He originally thought that he had seen too many miserable situations like this, so he would just take it lightly.

But now he knows that this will never happen.

Lu Hu didn't know that such a change had happened in Chunhui City in the city before. He wanted to have a good meal and drink in the city first. At the same time, he also looked for the blacksmith in the city to see if he could recast his tiger blade, otherwise he would always use it. The bolas and the broadsword are cumbersome to carry around.

So he separated from Fazhao outside and agreed to go up the mountain after repairing tomorrow.

Who knew that the city had become like this?

Lu Hu randomly caught a wanderer on the road and asked about what was going on in the city.

But the man seemed to have lost his soul. His eyes were completely unfocused and terrifyingly empty. No matter how many questions Lu Hu asked, there was no response.

He could only give up. After taking two steps, he suddenly turned around and punched out.

The fierce wind blew a broken knife that the man had just picked up from the rubble in his hand and wiped it away from his neck.

Originally, Lu Hu didn't care that much about the life and death of others, but today, perhaps under the influence of the scene in the city, he made such a move without thinking.

Most people only have thoughts of seeking death for a moment. After a suicide attempt, it is difficult to have the courage to continue.

This person was like this. After the knife was broken in his hand and the strong wind blew him away, he didn't even think about looking back. He fell to his knees and started to cry heartbreakingly.

Seeing this, Lu Hu sighed deeply. He didn't know if he was doing the right thing.

Even though I have died a hundred times, I still have to face this tragic and cold reality while I am still alive.

Especially for a low-income person who has become completely destitute, this kind of misery will be magnified countless times.

"At least, don't die in front of me!" He found a convincing reason for his action.

Just when Lu Hu was about to turn around, he suddenly saw an old man with a gray beard emerging from the ruins on the left.

The old man looked gray and miserable, but he was obviously different from the others in the city and behaved much more normally.

Carrying a large bulging bundle on his back, he lowered his head and walked hurriedly towards the outside of the city.

Lu Hu originally thought that this was an old guy who took the opportunity to collect property and make a small fortune.

But his eyesight and memory were extremely strong, and he recognized it at a glance. The old man actually recognized it himself.

It was the storyteller when he was listening to books at the Baishui City teahouse!

"It's him. This little old man is very capable of doing things. Has he come to Chunhui City to tell us about the book? I don't know if this guy's luck is good or bad."

Lu Hu seemed to be conscious and knew how to take advantage of the opportunity to make money. As soon as his footsteps moved, he chased after him and appeared in front of him.

The old man just lowered his head and walked quickly. Suddenly he felt that he hit a wall, and there was still a force in the wall. He bounced himself and staggered back a few steps.

He hurriedly looked up and saw a burly man standing in front of him, holding a large sword and with a meteor hammer wrapped around his body. He had a fierce look and was looking at him with a half-smile.

"Sir, have mercy on me, please have mercy on me, this little person is all my own, I don't want these anymore, I'm all here to honor you!"

The old man fell to his knees very quickly, an instinctive reaction without thinking, and neatly held up the bundle behind him with both hands.

"I'm not interested in your baggage. I just want to ask you a few questions and answer them truthfully. If not... I won't do anything to you."

Lu Hu was used to being arrogant in the past. He would blurt out some words, but he would react mid-sentence and change his words.

The old man was surprised. When a person appeared in front of him, why did the sound come from the side?

Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw that person appearing next to him at some point.

He was about to kneel and turn over, but as soon as he moved, a huge force hit him and he stood up uncontrollably.

"Let me ask you, what happened in the city?"

Although the old man was puzzled by Lu Hu's behavior, he didn't dare to think too much when he heard the question, and he told him everything he saw and heard.

As expected of a storyteller, even at this moment, his words were clear and concise, and he described the scene at that time to Lu Hu.

"It's the Rebirth Teaching again, but the tragic situation in this city actually has a share in Master Kong's!"

Lu Hu couldn't help frowning when he heard it, and his heart was full of mixed feelings, and he couldn't tell what kind of emotion it was.

Seeing Lu Hu's silence, the old man didn't dare to look at Lu Hu, and didn't dare to move his body.

After a long while, he heard the man's faint voice.

"What do you feel after experiencing these things? What are your plans for the future?"

"Ah?"

The sudden irrelevant words made the old man a little confused.

"This... this... this can't be helped. I can only blame my bad luck. Fortunately, I am still alive. I will try my best to live on in the future."

At this point, the old man's voice suddenly became low.

"The old man is from Qingzhou. Today, I saw the survivors in the city seeking death. They have lived a good life too much. They don't understand a simple truth. In the end, people still live for the sake of living. Living is a good thing after all!"

The old man spoke from the heart. As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had said too much. He quickly raised his head to see Lu Hu's expression and see if he should make up a few words later.

Who knew that when he raised his head, there was nothing around him. Where was Lu Hu?
