Chapter 1546: Dark Place
In the early morning, the town slowly revived after a night of silence, the darkness was expelled to small corners, and the morning light swayed obliquely on the eaves and street corners with a warm temperature.
A figure lingered in front of a small courtyard repeatedly, stepping on the steps several times, but then stopped, like a funny puppet being dragged back and forth.
It wasn't until the wooden door creaked open and a cloth-clothed woman strode out with a vegetable basket that the figure outside the door suddenly froze.
"You ......" The woman, who was dressed plainly to the point of shabby, froze, her eyes wide as she looked at the man at the bottom of the steps, her lips moving, and for a moment she seemed to be a little distracted, so that she did not react in any way.
But it was these two seconds of staring at each other that reawakened Li's soul, he stepped forward in two steps, suddenly grabbed the woman's hand, took the vegetable basket, and called softly in a low voice: "Ya'er......"
The woman seemed to have finally reacted, and coldly wanted to withdraw her hand, but it was in vain for a long time, so she could only stare at Li and said, "What are you still doing here?"
"Ya'er, it was me ...... before" Li seemed to have finished speaking, when he suddenly heard a crisp children's voice from the courtyard: "Mother, mother, I'll go with you!"
I only heard a sound of light footsteps, and a little Lori suddenly poked her head out from behind the door, blinked her big eyes and said, "Mother, I'll help you get it...... Huh, Dad?"
Her expression became a little timid, and she kneaded the corners of her clothes uneasily and said, "Dad, are you here?"
"Oguri, Daddy is back. Li seemed to crouch down and reached out to touch her daughter's head, but the latter shrank back and hid behind the woman in fear.
Li's hand couldn't help but freeze in mid-air, he slowly straightened up, watching his wife protect Xiao Li behind him like an old hen guarding her cubs, and couldn't help but show an astringent wry smile.
"Ya'er, I won't leave this time. Li seemed to say softly.
"How do you make me believe you?" the woman still looked cold.
"My ...... Sick and cured. Li said.
"So what?"
"So I'm not going to go again. Lee repeated awkwardly.
The woman was silent for a while, and then looked at Li Yi deeply: "Do you think that I am angry that you drove me, Xiao Li, and Xiao Feng away, and were ridiculed by the whole town?"
"I'm ......," Li seemed to open his mouth.
"Do you think I hate you for ignoring the two children at home and insisting on going to the deepest part of the Xiling Mountains to adventure?"
“……”
"Or do you think that I complain that you are so ruthless, and you have never seen Xiao Li and Xiao Feng in the past six months?"
The woman's voice rose higher and higher, and tears glistened faintly in her eyes, so that she did not dare to blink at all.
"You're so stupid!" the woman turned and walked away.
"Mother, mother......" Oguri was at a loss, and wanted to catch up in a panic.
Li Ruyi picked up Xiao Li and stepped into the courtyard, not forgetting to close the wooden door.
He realized that he had made a big mistake, ten years of husband and wife, didn't Ya'er still know him?
In fact, he didn't need to explain anything at all, Ya'er understood from the beginning, and her only resentment was that he excluded her like an outsider, and didn't want her to accompany him through the last part of his life.
"Ya'er. ”
Li seemed to find his wife by the well in the small courtyard, Xiao Li hurriedly jumped off the ground, grabbed her sleeve, shook it, and said, "Mother, don't think about it!"
"Hmph, your father dug the well himself, the mouth of the well is so small, I can't open it and I can't jump in. The woman hugged her daughter, but still didn't give Li a good face.
Li Yi smiled and said: "Isn't this the first time I've been inexperienced, people always make mistakes, so you have to give me a chance to repent and reform, right?"
The woman did not speak.
Li seemed to step forward, didn't give her a chance to resist, put his arms around her shoulders, and said seriously: "The last last chance, okay?"
The woman glared at him fiercely: "Let go, you have suffocated Xiao Li in the middle!"
Xiao Li squeezed out of the waists of the two of them bitterly, rubbed his head and said, "Painful ......"
Li seemed to laugh, gently rubbed Xiao Li's head, exhaled a few breaths and said, "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt." ”
"Huh, it works, it really doesn't hurt. Oguri said with a serious face.
"Don't give him face like that!" the woman snorted, but a smile quietly appeared on her lips.
……
Two hours later, the family of four had lunch and came to the courtyard where Li seemed to live alone.
Li seems to be pulling a pair of children from left to right, his heart is full of tranquility and peace, although the origin chaos qi in his body has not been completely eliminated, he has already felt that the whole person is like a new life.
And all these changes came from the Lord of the Commander's Mansion who suddenly appeared, no, I heard that it has now been changed to the Commander's Palace.
Although the other party looks young, whether it is cultivation or status, he should be in the forefront of this Bu Shan Xing, it stands to reason that he does not need to spend such a big price to win over his little Vajra warrior, but he has consumed a lot of heavenly and earthly treasures to help him recover his vitality.
Even if according to this adult, he had other uses for the Origin Chaos Qi that was extracted at the end, Li didn't seem to be a person who didn't know how to be grateful, and he knew very well that he already owed the other party a life.
After Ya'er heard about this, she also insisted on thanking Yuling in person with Li Yi, although a few words of thanks were too pale and weak, but if she didn't say anything, it would be even more cold and ruthless.
It's just that to Li Xiang's surprise, the quiet room was empty, and it was clear that Yu Ling was still in meditation when he left.
Li seemed to return to the ground suspiciously, and heard the voice of an uninvited guest: "Don't look, just now a few people who looked like masters came to look for him, and they left together half an hour ago...... Why are you suddenly rejuvenated again?"
"Then did they say when they would be back?" Li seemed to ignore the last two sentences.
The leader of the Aotian Gang lazily leaned against the tree and said, "No, I guess they want to explore the Burial Poison Valley, maybe they won't be able to come back." Obviously, he still has a lot of resentment about being thrown down as bait before.
"What nonsense, the Burial Poison Valley is a forbidden area for us and others, and I'm afraid it's like a flat ground for them. Li said.
"I don't care, the protection fee! forget about yours, pay the three of them first. "The leader of the Aotian Gang said confidently.
He was already ready to be rejected and beaten up, but he didn't expect Li to throw him a shabby money bag with a casual hand.
"For the sake of no one harassing Ya'er in the past six months...... The 30,000 should be used as a thank you fee. Li said.
The leader of the Aotian Gang widened his eyes in shock: "You actually ...... Ahem, 30,000, it's only 30,000, your thanks are too cheap, right?"
He turned his mouth around stiffly, and then stuffed the money bag into the spatial ring with great numbness.
"Later, if I have money, I'll talk about it. Li seemed to wave his hand, not caring about the authentic words.
"You said, don't forget!" The Aotian Gang leader's eyes lit up, and he whistled out of the courtyard in a good mood, and took steps that his six relatives did not recognize, feeling that he had finally reached the peak of his life.
"I actually picked up the money from Li Yi's hand, tsk, how long is this enough to blow?"
The leader of the Aotian Gang fluttered behind his back, completely ignoring the road, intoxicated with the beautiful vision of the future, so that when a dark shadow suddenly appeared in front of him, he didn't react at all, and almost hit the man headfirst.
"Who are you, don't have long eyes?" said the leader of the Aotian Gang, who hurriedly came to a wicked person to sue first, and said with a tiger face.
However, the mysterious man in the black robe just stared at him quietly, his eyes smiling rather than smiling.
The leader of the Aotian Gang realized that something was wrong, and couldn't help but shudder, and said with a dry smile: "Aha, I'm sorry, I'll go, I'll leave immediately." ”
As he spoke, he retreated back in small steps, and after retreating to a position of about ten meters, he turned around and ran.
"Do you think you're still going to be able to go?"
These were the last words the Aotian gang leader heard before he lost consciousness, and then the boundless darkness enveloped him.
The man in black carried him in one hand, looked at the direction where Li Bi was, and whispered, "Li Bi...... Forget it, it's a little hard to deal with, just one person is enough. ”
He carried the leader of the Aotian Gang, and his figure disappeared into the shadows again......
