"Are you all right?" Lian Jue asked when he saw Xiao Yun and Xiao Ruo approaching.

The two girls had their sideburns scattered, their clothes were neat, their cheeks were stained with white stone powder, their eyes were full of tears, but the corners of their mouths were full of bitter smiles, and they asked in a low voice: "The two of us, are you all right? Will Master Du bully us again?"

"I believe it won't. At this moment, Lian Duel's eyes were like ice, and he immediately recovered his temperature, and said in a low voice: "You two go and freshen up and rest, if you want to go back to Hangchuan, I will help you." ”

"Back to Hangchuan?" Xiao Yun and Xiao Ruo were like frightened deer, "Can we still go back?"

"He can't control you anymore. Lian Duel said slowly.

"But!" Among the two girls, Xiao Ruo, who was a little more resolute, gritted her teeth and said: "Even if we go back to Hangchuan, aren't we the same as being slaves and maids in the homeless family!"

"You can go home!" Yun Geyao said suspiciously.

"Home?" Xiao Ruo sneered, then shook his head with a wry smile, and said mournfully: "We don't have a home anymore, Brother Liandu, Brother Shunyun, Sister Ge Yao, you are so good to us, I won't hide it from you, my father and mother were poisoned by Master Du ten years ago!"

"What!" Not only did Lei Shunyun and Yun Geyao look shocked, but they didn't even expect the duel.

"Our father and mother are all servants of the Du family, ten years ago, the old man came here and wanted to buy us from his father, some people are willing to sell, some people are unwilling to sell their children, but the old man insists on taking away some boys and girls, one night, he gathered the house slaves, made the last deal, dismissed the people who were willing to receive the money, and the unwilling ones were poisoned by him and by him!"

Xiao Ruo's face gradually turned pale as she spoke, she buried her head and sobbed in a low voice.

"Except for the two of us, no one knows, that night, the two of us went with their respective fathers and mothers, and when our fathers and mothers entered the house, we waited in the garden, and waited until midnight, until the middle of the night, and listened to the crying and howling inside, in the middle of the night, the old man and some house slaves with money bags came out, but our fathers and mothers did not come out, until the lights were turned off, and some people in black clothes came out with bamboo shelves, and we guessed that something was wrong, and quietly followed. Xiao Ruo couldn't cry anymore, it was Xiao Yun who lowered her head and said with tears in her eyes.

"It was raining that day, the ground was very slippery, and the people who carried the bamboo frame did not walk steadily, the shelf fell, and the white cloth on it fell off, and one arm was exposed, and my mother's silver bracelet was put on it....."

Xiao Ruo raised his head suddenly, and continued, "Among us people, only the two of us are most afraid of Master Du, and we don't dare to tell others about these things, and Master Du can also see that we are both afraid of him, so he picks up the two of us to bully ...... first."

The green tendons on Lei Shunyun's neck twitched, "This old capital, it should have been killed a long time ago!"

"Hey!" Yun Geyao lowered her head, unable to digest the shock and bitterness in her heart for a while, and asked softly: "Liandu, find most of them, you designed it?"

"Hmm. Lian decided.

"Master Du is innocent of death, I just didn't expect that most of them are quite chivalrous, and the disaster will not affect the children and grandchildren, I always feel that this trick is a bit ruthless. Yun Geyao said bluntly.

"I have no choice, this kind of person is the old man, his nature is difficult to change, he abandoned his family and business, and guarded the Hanging River Post House for ten years, and there is no credit to the Hanging River, even if we get him away from the Holy River Basin, he returns to the Hanging River, the Holy Monarch can't give him too heavy a hat to take care of the hearts of the people, he is bound to get up again, if he doesn't use this trick, if he doesn't stab a knife in his heart, there will be other girls, who will be folded in the hands of the old capital!"

"Hey! Ge Yao is right, although most of them follow Yan Jie, they are not as ruthless as Yan Jie, today's incident - hey!" Shun Yun also shook his head, looked at Lian Du and said, "However, when it comes to making trade-offs, I still think Lian Du is right." ”

Lian Du snorted coldly, "Who has no parents, who is not a child? When Master Du did these girls and did these beasts, he forgot about them a long time ago, and the Holy Monarch would not kill him, so I will punish his heart first!"

Suddenly, Xiao Yun and Xiao Ruo Shi Shi Ran bowed and said softly: "Brother Lian, Brother Shunyun, Sister Ge Yao, no matter where you go, take us with you!"

"Huh?" Lei Shunyun was startled, scratched his ears and said, "This, it's not very convenient, right.......?"

"You don't have to go anywhere, just stay at the Hanging River Inn. Lian Du said in a loud voice, and walked into the stone room just now, and saw that the cups and plates in the room were in a mess, the tables and chairs were overturned, and the fragments of the wooden box were scattered on the ground.

"Lian Duel, what are you looking for?" Shun Yun and Ge Yao also followed, choking on the dust inside and coughing twice.

On the back of the wooden board in Lian Duel's hand, there was a cowhide-colored scroll glued, and Lian Duel pulled it hard, ripped off the scroll, threw it into Shun Yun's hand, and said: "After I contacted the Holy Monarch with the sound transmission jade, he explained that he would write the holy oracle on it, stick it in the mezzanine of the wooden box and bring it over. ”

Shun Yun quickly untied the binding thread on the scroll, and Lian Du walked out slowly, saying: "Shun Yun, you are from Hangchuan, and you are more suitable than me to read the Holy Monarch's message, let's go out!"

Lei Shunyun took the scroll, curled up in the palms of his hands and wiped the dust, and wanted to disassemble it, but his eyes were quite complicated.

"Shunyun, what's wrong?" Ge Yao asked when she saw that Shunyun looked like she wanted to speak and stopped.

"That..."Shun Yun clenched the oracle scroll tightly, and the sweat in his palm left a small spot of water on the dark yellow silk cloth. Shun Yun gritted his teeth and asked embarrassedly: "Liandu, did you ask.... How's my dad?"

Originally, it was common for Shunyun to ask his father about Lei Lijun's safety, but when Lei Shunyun and his father were separated, Lei Lijun was leading his troops to pursue the remnants of the Yan Demon Clan and his party, and personally killed the enemy Panhong, which was a long-cherished wish accumulated for ten years.

Lian Du smiled a little tiredly, patted Shun Yun's shoulder and said, "Of course I asked, Lei Bo is well, and he is recuperating in Lei Mansion." ”

"Recuperate?" Lei Shunyun raised his eyebrows with joy, "So, it's okay? The Flame Demon Clan is gone!"

"......" Lian Du smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Uncle Lei wiped out most of the remnants of Panhong when he retreated, but he didn't find the bodies of Panhong and Bai Qiuhuan, so he should have run away." ”

Lei Shunyun opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say, he just said "um", opened the scroll of the holy oracle, browsed it at a glance, his face darkened, and handed it to Lian Duel.

After witnessing the duel, his face was also quite ugly, and he handed back the holy oracle to Lei Shunyun, and several people walked out of the rockery together and arrived in the corridor.

The starry sky hangs low, illuminates the courtyard of the Hanging River Post House faintly shining, the majestic mountain scenery is like a crouching tiger, the zigzag verandah is shaped like a snake, the courtyard is full of people, but it is motionless in the dark, and it is terrifyingly quiet.

A bloated figure, sitting on the talisman at the foot of the mountain view, leaning against a crooked pine tree on his back, was the old capital, he bent his waist, buried his face in the crook of his arm, motionless, silent.

On the side of the empty verandah, most of them were silently independent with their backs to the crowd.
