Dao of the Bizarre Immortal

Chapter 311 - Lunatic

After departing from the Cowheart Village, Li Huowang silently walked down a muddy path.

As he walked through the rain, the paper clothes and skin became damp from the rain and slowly fell onto the ground in a mush.

Currently, Li Huowang has buds of fleshy growth growing from his burnt skin. As the rain fell onto these buds, it caused Li Huowang intense pain. Even so, he did not try to avoid it. He just took it all.

Soon, the rain stopped and the skies gradually grew brighter.

Finally, Li Huowang stopped when he saw an abandoned temple. He hadn’t slept for a few days and was really tired.

Standing in front of the temple, he looked at the broken sign and the couplets covered in moss. Even though the couplets were faded, he could faintly read the words inscribed on it.

“Nothing is set in stone, everything is done by another man; your state of mind is within your control, take a step back and feel it expand.”

After reading the couplet, Li Huowang entered without a word. The temple wasn’t all that large. Other than a clay statue that was cut in half, everything else had been taken away from inside it.

The roof was leaking and there was water everywhere. Li Huowang stood at the only corner without a leak and stared at the rain that was dripping into the temple.

“See, you didn’t listen to me and now you are alone. You should have just listened to me,” said Hong Zhong as he circled around Li Huowang with a face full of glee.

On the other hand, Monk walked over and consoled Li Huowang. “Don’t be too sad. This was not your fault. You didn’t want to kill them. You can just do more good deeds and pray to Amitabha. Buddha will not blame you.”

However, Li Huowang completely ignored the two illusions. He kept thinking about how he had become a beggar within the hallucination as well as Bai Lingmiao’s cold eyes.

Not only did his family abandon him, but he was also the one who caused Bai Lingmiao to no longer have a family. He was nothing but a walking disaster.

After a while, he unsheathed his sword and stared at his reflection.

At that moment, a question popped within his mind.

Why do people live? Since my life is already so miserable, what use is it for me to remain alive?

In an instant, everything turned quiet as Jin Shanzhao, Peng Longteng, Monk, and Hong Zhong all surrounded Li Huowang.

“Hey hey hey, what are you thinking? Li, calm down,” said Hong Zhong as he tried to calm Li Huowang down in a panic.

“Yeah. Daoist, why are you doing this? If you really think that there’s no meaning to life anymore, then you can become a monk instead. Why do you seek death?” said Monk.

Meanwhile, the silent Peng Longteng moved as she gestured at him with her headless body, trying to show that she really looked down on him.

On the other hand, Jin Shanzhao, who always had his mouth open but couldn’t speak, had shut his mouth as he stared at Li Huowang worriedly.

However, Li Huowang ignored all of them and examined the blade of his sword. He had never looked back on his life as intensely as he had right now.

“Aiya, it’s just a girl. There’s no need to worry about anything; even if you don’t have all of them, you still have us!” Hong Zhong smiled and pointed at himself.

Hearing this, Li Huowang finally snapped. He snarled and slashed Hong Zhong’s body, causing the clay statue behind Hong Zhong to be split in half.

Cold steel flashed within the abandoned temple as Li Huowang sliced mercilessly and wildly at the faceless Hong Zhong, the headless Peng Longteng, the bodiless Jin Shanzhao, and the merciful Monk.

But no matter how sharp the blade was and no matter how hard Li Huowang swung it, he still couldn’t hurt them.

“You guys! It’s because of you! What are you!? Why do you keep following me!?” Li Huowang roared in anger.

“WHY AM I A STRAYED ONE?! WHY AM I THE ONE WHO IS ILL?! WHY ME?! WHAT DID I DO WRONG? WHY COULDN’T IT BE THE OTHERS? I JUST WANT TO LIVE PEACEFULLY! WHY IS THIS SO HARD?!!”

He swung his sword again and again until he stumbled, sending the sword flying away.

He fell onto the ground and stopped moving. He was tired, too tired.

He was sleepy, but he couldn’t fall asleep. His head kept pulsing nonstop.

At that moment, Hong Zhong slowly approached and consoled him, “Don’t worry. All you need to do is listen to me and I will be able to trick many women for you.”

However, Li Huowang did not react to him. All he did was lay on the ground without even blinking his eyes.

Soon, his surroundings started to distort and shift. When Li Huowang snapped back to reality, he saw that he was lying face down underneath the bridge. It was extremely humid and cold.

When he realized what was happening, Li Huowang chuckled bitterly. “Hehe... Heh.”

He chuckled and laughed until he felt very thirsty. At that point, he stood up and started walking toward the river.

Due to the rain, the water level had risen. After reaching the river bank, he lay down on the ground and dunked his head into the water to drink some of it. When he had drunk his fill, he felt very hungry. He stood up, wiped his face, and walked out from under the bridge.

After the rain, the sky was clear and the air was crisp. There were many people walking around on the streets too. contemporary romance

However, when Li Huowang appeared on the streets, no one walked within a radius of five meters around him. His clothes were in tatters and he was very dirty.

“It’s that lunatic again. What are the urban management officers doing?”

“Shh. Don’t let him hear you. His ears are very sharp.”

“He’s also someone pitiable.”

Li Huowang just ignored all of them as he continued to search for something on the streets. After a while, he stopped beside a trash can. Then, he opened the lid and looked inside, trying to find some food.

People nowadays were quite wasteful. Soon, Li Huowang found two cups of unfinished boba tea and a single vegetarian bun with a chunk bitten off from it.

Snap!

At that moment, a sudden flash of light occurred as a man put his phone down from beside Li Huowang. The man was smoking as he uploaded the photo he had just taken. “Hey, look! It’s the new beggar model.”

Meanwhile, Li Huowang, after finding several cold skewers in the trash can, started walking back toward the area underneath the bridge while eating them.

Several youths ran past him. All of them were laughing and pointing at him when suddenly one of them threw a pebble and shouted, “Hahaha! Hey you crazy bastard. Do you want a smoke?”

Seeing this, Li Huowang suddenly grinned and started laughing. “Hahaha! You are right! I’m indeed crazy! I’m just a lunatic!”
