Chapter 53 Chen Duo: Who dares to touch my dog?
Afternoon, at the entrance of Biyou Village.
The sunlight was a bit too bright, making people drowsy.
Chen Duo squatted in the roadside bushes, holding half a leftover meat bun in her hand.
In front of her lay a skinny, filthy mangy dog.
This dog is very ugly. Half of its fur is bald, and there are several festering wounds on its body. Just looking at it makes you want to stay away.
But Chen Duo did not dodge.
Her dark green eyes stared silently at the dog, as if she were looking at herself in a mirror.
"Eat."
Chen Duo broke the meat bun into pieces and placed them on the ground in front of the puppy.
The dog sniffed warily.
Perhaps they were extremely hungry, or perhaps they didn't sense any malice.
It cautiously approached, stuck out its tongue, and swiped away the bits of meat on the ground.
The warm touch made Chen Duo's fingers tremble slightly.
"Sister Bao said that this is called a stray dog."
Chen Duo reached out a hand, wanting to pet the dog's head, but hesitated, afraid that the poison in her body would harm it. Her hand hovered in mid-air.
Just then, a cacophony of footsteps and curses erupted.
"Get out of here! What a lousy dog! What bad luck!"
"I was wondering why there had been a persistent stench in the village lately; it's because of this beast!"
Three villagers dressed in martial arts uniforms walked over.
They were originally just ordinary people, but after entering the cultivation furnace, they gained Qi within their bodies and became "extraordinary people".
Their sudden surge in power made them extremely arrogant, and they walked with their noses in the air.
They thought they were already superior to others, so how could they tolerate such filthy things being an eyesore in the village?
"Woof!"
The mangy dog was startled and hid behind Chen Duo with its tail between its legs, trembling.
Chen Duo stood up and stood in front of the dog.
"Get out of the way!"
The villager in charge was bald, with a fierce-looking face, and carrying a stick.
"Young lady, mind your own business! This dog is sick, and it's contagious! We need to kill it and throw it out!"
"It's not sick."
Chen Duo's voice was soft, but very earnest:
"It's just hungry!!"
"Hey! Why can't you understand human language, girl?"
The bald man grew impatient and waved the stick in his hand:
"This is Biyou Village! A sacred place for cultivation! How can we tolerate the existence of such filth? Get out of here! Or we'll beat you up too!"
In their view, maintaining the village's "cleanliness" and "perfection" is to protect Master Ma's face.
Chen Duo did not move.
She held the dog behind her tightly, a stubborn glint in her eyes:
"I won't allow it."
"I want to keep it."
"Keep it? Ha! What a joke!"
The bald man sneered, relying on his current cultivation level, and directly reached out to push Chen Duo:
"Don't you even know where you are! Get out of here!"
The rough, large hand reached out to Chen Duo's shoulder.
This moment.
Countless images suddenly flashed through Chen Duo's mind.
Inside the cages of the Medicine Immortal Society, those companions who were dragged away and disposed of because they weren't strong enough...
Inside the bunker, the experimental animals that were executed because of "danger"...
And there was the look of disappointment in Uncle Liao's eyes before he died...
Why?
Why should the weak be bullied?
Why is it that just wanting to live is something that gets you rejected?
An unprecedented emotion erupted like a volcano in Chen Duo's heart, which had been dormant for more than a decade.
That was... anger.
"Don't touch me!!"
boom!!!!
With a scream from Chen Duo, her originally clear, dark green eyes were instantly filled with black energy!
A primal poison, visible to the naked eye and exhibiting an eerie purplish-black color, erupted instantly from her center!
"ah!!"
The moment the bald man's hand touched Chen Duo's clothes, it was as if it had been plunged into strong acid, instantly turning black and rotting, with the flesh melting away at a visible speed!
"My hand! My hand!!"
The bald man screamed and fell to the ground, rolling around.
The other two villagers were also affected by the spreading toxic gas and felt difficulty breathing.
Black spots began to appear on his face, which terrified him so much that he scrambled backward.
"A...a monster! This girl is a monster!!"
Chen Duo stood there, trembling all over.
She didn't want to hurt anyone.
But... she couldn't control herself.
As if sensing their master's anger, the poisonous insects surged out in a frenzy, eager to devour any threat that approached.
The mangy dog behind them was also terrified, whimpering and trying to run away.
"No...don't run away..."
Chen Duo reached out to grab the dog, but found that her hand was also shrouded in black energy.
She froze.
That familiar feeling of despair welled up in my heart again.
I am a monster...
I knew it...
They don't deserve anything.
Just then.
A warm, golden hand, without warning, passed through the layer of poisonous black mist and landed firmly on her head.
"Silly girl, why are you so angry?"
The hand emanated a faint golden light. Upon encountering the golden light, the terrifying primal poisons seemed to have met their natural enemy, obediently retreating back into Chen Duo's body.
Chen Duo suddenly looked up.
Su Wuxian, wearing slippers and carrying two bottles of iced cola, stood behind her, smiling at her.
There was no fear, no disgust, only the unwavering pampering.
"Master...Master..."
Chen Duo's tears streamed down her face instantly.
"I...I lost control...I hurt someone...Am I a really bad person?"
"bad?"
Su Wuxian took out a tissue from his pocket and wiped away her tears:
"Who said you're bad?"
"If others are about to beat your dog, and you're still not angry, then you're a fool."
After saying that, Su Wuxian turned around and looked at the bald man on the ground who was still screaming in pain, as well as the other two villagers who were terrified.
The smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a suffocating coldness.
"Shut up."
Su Wuxian uttered two words calmly.
The bald man instantly stopped screaming like a chicken being choked, and could only look at Su Wuxian in terror.
"Just because you've gained some power, you think you're someone important?"
Su Wuxian walked up to the bald man, stepped on his rotten hand, and ground it slightly:
"You can't even tolerate a dog? Is this the kind of spiritual practice Ma Xianhong taught you?"
"Those who are forcibly elevated by external means cannot even cultivate their own character. Giving them power will only turn them into beasts."
Su Wuxian pressed down slightly with his feet.
"Click."
The protective magic artifact on the burly man shattered instantly.
Immediately afterwards, a flash of blue light appeared in Su Wuxian's hand.
Dual-wielding hand, blue hand, strip!
"Since you cannot control this power, then I will take it back for you."
"ah--!!"
The burly man let out a scream as he felt the vital energy he was so proud of being instantly drained from his body.
The feeling of weakness, like falling from the clouds back into the mud, was worse than death.
The other two people, seeing this, turned and ran away in fright.
"Trying to run away?"
Su Wuxian waved his hand casually.
Two streams of energy flew out, precisely shattering the dantian of the two men.
"roll!"
"Go back and tell the others that if anyone dares to bully others in the village again..."
"This is what happens."
After dealing with the trash, Su Wuxian transformed back into the kind old man he once was.
Su Wuxian turned around and looked at Chen Duo, who was still somewhat at a loss.
"Master...I..."
Chen Duo lowered her head, not daring to look Su Wuxian in the eye.
"well done."
Su Wuxian suddenly spoke.
"what?"
Chen Duo was stunned.
I said, "Well done."
Su Wuxian crouched down, picked up the mangy dog that was already terrified, and put it in Chen Duo's arms:
"Girl, remember that."
"Anger is not a sin; it is a weapon given to you by God to protect what you care about."
"No one taught you before, so all you know how to do is endure."
"But now, you are my granddaughter."
"If you want to keep a dog, then keep one; if you want to get angry, then get angry."
"If you believe it's right, you can do whatever it takes, even if it means tearing a hole in the sky..."
Su Wuxian pointed to Zhang Zhiwei, who was secretly watching them from a distance:
"That tall old man over there will help you fix it."
Zhang Zhiwei: "..."
Junior brother, could you please not involve me when you're teaching the kids?
Am I, with my old bones, meant to mend the sky?
Chen Duo hugged the dirty dog, feeling the warmth emanating from her arms.
Then he looked at the advisor in front of him, who was so protective of his own that he was unreasonable.
The ice in her heart melted completely.
"Um."
Chen Duo nodded vigorously, a bright smile spreading across her face.
"Do you like this dog?"
Chen Duo nodded: "Yes, it hurts a lot, but it didn't cry out."
"Then let's keep it."
Su Wuxian waved his hand:
"Take it back and wash it clean. We happen to need someone to guard our yard."
"Should we give it a name?"
Chen Duo thought about it; it was the first time she had ever owned her own "private property".
She looked into the puppy's wet eyes and said earnestly:
"His name is... Chen Junyan."
Su Wuxian's lips twitched slightly.
Well, this name is definitely not going to work out.
One day, all the dogs in this village will have to call him Chen Junyan.
However, seeing Chen Duo's determined gaze, he still smiled:
"Okay, let's call him Chen Junyan No. 2."
"Come on, let's go home! I'll set its bones and buy you two steamed buns while I'm at it."
