Chapter 226: The Man Who Loves Killing Pigs

The Zhenwu Emperor became more and more proud as he spoke, and continued: "Hey, our pig butcher Chang Yuchun is really awesome in the slaughterhouse! Every time he swings his knife, it's like lightning across the sky, which is simply shocking. He is like the god of slaughter, absolutely dominating the life and death of pigs. His slaughtering skills are top-notch, like a shining medal, which makes people have to give a thumbs up. Having such a person by your side is like having a super bodyguard, and you are extremely safe. Think about it, those weak people who give up immediately when they encounter difficulties can't compare with our Chang Yuchun? His bravery is simply 'Oli Gei'!"

Mizukage waved his hands quickly, and said with horror: "Oh, father, Chang Yuchun is too obsessed with killing pigs, he is simply a butcher maniac. You see, he is like a wound-up butchering machine, he can't stop at all. Being with such a person, my life is just like a slaughterhouse, full of blood, it's too scary. As the saying goes, 'too much is as bad as too little', we can't find someone who loves to kill pigs so much, otherwise I will be drowned in pig blood one day. I, your daughter, want to find a gentle person who can grow flowers and raise birds with me and live a stable life, that's what we call happiness."

Mizukage frowned and continued, "Besides, he is so obsessed with killing pigs that he will definitely offend a lot of pig dealers. Then, we will be in trouble. I don't want to live a life where I am troubled by others all the time. That would be like 'sad mushroom'. I want someone who can live a peaceful life and enjoy a quiet life with me, instead of fighting and killing in the slaughterhouse all day long, making me restless. It's like I'm sitting on a pig transport truck that may overturn at any time, and I can't settle down no matter what. I'd better find someone who is more down-to-earth and can live an ordinary and happy life with me."

The Mizukage continued, "Look at those gentle people who do things in a soft voice, which makes people feel comfortable. But he is always shouting and killing in the slaughterhouse. Who knows when he will cause a big disaster. Isn't this asking for trouble? It's simply 'no zuo no die'. What I want is someone who can plan the future with me, not someone who makes me worry about the future all day long. He is so obsessed with killing pigs, he is not suitable for me at all. I'd better find someone who is more suitable for me and can live a warm life with me in this small home."

Mizukage said in a series of parallel sentences: "His obsession is like a raging fire, roasting me restless, it's simply 'hot to the bone'; his busyness is like a violent hurricane, blowing me tottering, that's called 'dizzy'; his persistence is like a raging torrent, rushing me overwhelmed, completely 'confused'. I don't want to be affected by his obsession, what I want is a life as gentle as the spring breeze, gently caressing my face, that's 'little fresh'; what I want is a day as quiet as the lake, reflecting my dreams, this is 'good and peaceful years'; what I want is an atmosphere as warm as the warm sun, warming my soul, this is 'warm to the heart'."

Emperor Zhenwu said proudly, "My daughter, this butcher Li Wenzhong is both loyal and brave. Look at him on the slaughtering battlefield, he is like a butcher god descended to earth, majestic and superb. His courage is like a blazing stove fire, burning more and more vigorously, no one can stop it, it is simply 'burning'. His loyalty is like a solid butcher knife, no matter how the fat pig struggles, he will not move. Such a person is responsible and worthy of trust. With him by your side, you have a solid food backing, and you don't have to worry about any food troubles. He can provide you with fresh pork and give you a stable food future, which is 'very stable'."

The Zhenwu Emperor became more and more excited as he spoke, and continued, "Li Wenzhong's status in the slaughtering world is also quite high. His achievements in slaughtering are like that glittering medal, making people admire him with all their might. His wisdom in slaughtering is like that bright stove flame, guiding everyone in the direction of delicious food, that's '666'. With such a man as your husband, your future days will definitely be full of glory and brilliance. You can just wait to be envied, jealous and hated by others, and that will definitely be 'envy, jealousy and no hatred'. He can stand up when diners need him and will do anything for delicious food. This kind of responsibility is not something that ordinary people can have, that's 'my brother is awesome'."

Mizukage pouted and said unhappily, "Father, please don't just see his good points. Li Wenzhong is obsessed with slaughtering people, and he only has the slaughterhouse in his eyes. Think about it, he is like a clockwork robot, working hard for customers all day long, how can he have time to take care of me? It's like I bought a beautiful tableware, but it can only be looked at but not used. Isn't it 'good looking but not practical'? I don't want to be ignored. I want someone who is more family-oriented, who can take care of me when I am sick and comfort me when I am sad. As the saying goes, 'A harmonious family brings prosperity', wouldn't it be better to find someone who values ​​family? That is the 'light of righteousness'."

The Mizukage paused, then continued, "Life is hard enough, I don't want to find someone who makes me more lonely. I want someone who can give me warmth, someone who can share life's joys and sorrows with me. Not someone as cold as an iceberg. It's like I'm walking in a dark food tunnel, and I can never see the light at the end. It's just 'extremely miserable'. I'd better find someone who is gentle and considerate, so that my life can be full of flavor, and that's a 'happy life'."

Mizukage continued to refute: "Look at those happy young couples, holding hands all day long, shopping, watching movies, and eating delicious food together. How sweet it is. But if I follow Li Wenzhong, I will probably have to do these things alone. It's like I'm singing a one-man show, so tiring. What I want is someone who can create beautiful memories with me, not someone who makes me always wait in memories. He doesn't care about his family, he is not suitable for me at all. I'd better find someone who is more suitable for me, who can live a warm life with me in this small home. That is 'my right choice'."

Mizukage said in a series of parallel sentences: "His indifference is like a gust of cold wind, which makes me shiver, just like 'freezing like a dog'; his neglect is like a rainstorm, which makes me frustrated, that's called 'cold'; his busyness is like a flash of lightning, which scares me into panic, that's completely 'scared'. I don't want to be affected by his indifference, neglect and busyness. What I want is a life as warm as spring, just like the blooming flowers full of vitality, that's 'full of vitality'; what I want is considerate days, just like the soft clouds that make people comfortable, that's 'comfortable'; what I want is a harmonious and happy atmosphere, just like the beautiful rainbow that makes people intoxicated, that's 'beautiful'."

Emperor Zhenwu frowned slightly and said, "Daughter, this butcher Fu Youde has made great achievements in battle. Look, on the slaughtering battlefield, he is like a tiger rushing down the mountain, unstoppable, and so domineering. His courage is like the surging hot oil, one wave after another, daunting, and simply awesome. His strength is like the surging flames of the stove, as fast as lightning, that is speed and passion. Wouldn't you be attracted to such a hero? With him by your side, you don't have to worry about encountering food problems, because he will be like a solid food fortress, protecting you from wind and rain, and that is a sense of security."

The more the Zhenwu Emperor spoke, the prouder he became. He continued, "Fu Youde's performance in the slaughter war was amazing. Every time he slaughtered, it was like lightning across the sky, shocking people, that is 'wow'. His slaughtering exploits were like the bright stars, shining, that is 'blinding'. With such a person by your side, it is like having a super food bodyguard, safe and worry-free, that is 'reassured and bold'. Think about it, those weak chefs who retreat when they encounter difficulties, how can they be as brave as Fu Youde? That is 'incomparable'."

Mizukage sighed, shook his head and said, "Father, Fu Youde has spent his entire life in a slaughterhouse, he is a slaughtering machine. Just think about it, he is like a loaded blowgun, ready to fire at any time. With such a person, my life is like a battlefield, full of blood and danger, it is simply 'too terrible'. My daughter does not want to live that kind of life, living in fear all day long. As the saying goes, 'Knives and guns have no eyes', we can't find such a dangerous person. My daughter hopes that my husband can stay by my side safely and watch the sunrise and sunset with me, that is 'Romance in the House'."

Mizukage frowned and continued, "Besides, he is so bellicosous (enthusiastic about slaughtering), he will definitely offend many diners. Then, we will suffer as well. I don't want to live a life where I am hunted by others (picky about the quality of pork) all day long. That is a 'miserable life'. I want someone who can live in peace, someone who can enjoy a quiet life with me. Not someone who fights and kills all day long and makes me restless. It's like I'm sitting on a slaughter chariot that could explode at any time, and I can't settle down at all. That's 'nervous'. I'd better find someone who is more down-to-earth, who can live an ordinary and happy life with me. That is 'stable happiness'."

The Mizukage continued, "Look at those gentle people. They do things in a soft voice and make people feel comfortable. But he shouts and calls for war all day long. You never know when he will cause a big disaster. Isn't this asking for trouble? That's 'asking for trouble'. What I want is someone who can plan the future with me, not someone who makes me worry about the future all the time. He is so belligerent and is not suitable for me at all. I'd better find someone who is more suitable for me and can live a warm life with me in this small home. That is the 'right way'."

The Mizukage said in a series of parallel sentences: "His bellicosity is like a raging fire, roasting me restless, like an ant on a hot pot; his violence (the force with which he handled the pork) is like a violent hurricane, blowing me tottering, like a mess in the wind; his ferocity is like a raging torrent, rushing me overwhelmed, completely bewildered. I don't want to be affected by his bellicosity, I want a life as gentle as the spring breeze, brushing my face, that is 'gentle treatment'; I want days as tranquil as the lake, reflecting my dreams, that is 'dreamland'; I want an atmosphere as warm as the warm sun, warming my soul, that is 'heartwarming'."

Emperor Zhenwu seemed to be thinking about something, and then said, "My daughter, this butcher Deng Yu is a famous butcher of the founding of the country. Just think about it, his prestige is like a towering mountain, making people look up, that is, 'unattainable'. His butchering military exploits are like the bright sunshine, shining on the earth, that is, 'radiant'. His wisdom is like the deep ocean, unfathomable, that is, 'mysterious'. Such a person has prestige and can bring you glory. With him by your side, you are like owning a bright pearl, radiant, that is, 'sparkling'."

The Emperor Zhenwu became more and more excited as he spoke, and continued: "Deng Yu's position in the history of slaughter is extremely important. His name is like the loud bell, echoing in people's hearts, that is, 'the lingering sound'. His deeds are like the legendary stories, passed down by people, that is, 'word of mouth'. With such a person as your husband, your future life will definitely be full of glory and splendor. You can just wait to be envied, jealous and hated by others, that is definitely 'the envy of everyone'. He can stand up when the diners need him, and he will do anything for the greater good (delicious food). This kind of prestige is not something that ordinary people can have, that is, 'an extraordinary person'."

Mizukage shook his head and said helplessly, "Father, Deng Yu has been fighting (slaughtering) all year round, and all he has in his eyes is the slaughterhouse. Think about it, he is like a wild horse that has broken free from its reins, no one can stop him, that is 'uncontrollable'. Being with such a person, my life is like a journey with no end, full of fatigue and loneliness, that is simply 'tired of love'. I, your daughter, don't want to be a widow (live alone without delicious food). I, your daughter, hope that my husband can spend more time with me, and not always be fighting (slaughtering) outside. As the saying goes, 'a short separation is better than a new marriage, a long separation creates distance', wouldn't it be better for us to find someone who can be with me often? That is the 'right choice'."

The Mizukage paused, then continued, "Life is hard enough, I don't want to find someone who makes me more lonely. I want someone who can accompany me, someone who can spend a long time with me. Not someone who is fleeting like a shooting star. It's like I'm walking in a long desert, and I can never see an oasis at the end. That's the 'road of despair'. I'd better find a gentle and considerate person, so that my life can be full of flavor, that's the 'happy life'."
