Chapter 401: A Month Later
A month later.
The bitter cold mountains of the north. It snowed heavily again on this day, and it seems that the snow over this ancient forest has not stopped since the beginning of winter.
In the depths of the ancient forest, there are still nests of nightfish that have existed for thousands of years.
Sitting in a wooden wheelchair, the Abyss was parked on the highest floor of the Eternal Night Tower, looking through the window at his home. The houses that had been destroyed in the fighting had been renovated, and some of the old and crumbling buildings that had been uninhabited for too long were demolished.
The sky above the forest is closed, and when the snow outside falls through the dense forest, it turns into light snow. The clansmen are busy under this light snow, everyone is busy demolishing the old house and building a new house, everyone is busy and fulfilling, and most importantly, their faces have no hatred, no complaints, all show their yearning for a better life in the future.
It's been a long time since the lair has been so vibrant. Looking at the busy scene of the clansmen, he couldn't help but have red eyes.
Probably because he died once, he seemed to see it. After returning from the battlefield of Diqiu, he told the clansmen that the inn had been destroyed, and Xu Guan fought with him and was dragged to half death by him, and the revenge of the previous patriarch had been avenged. The clansmen immediately cheered, and Wu Yuan said that from now on, everyone will live a good life, and our Yelu clan will not be bullied again in the future. The clansmen cheered again, and they all believed that this man, who could destroy even the behemoth of the inn, would definitely lead them to a good life as the patriarch. So there is this scene in front of us, the first step of the devouring abyss to change the night demon clan is to renovate the night ray lair aside, so that everyone can live better and more comfortably, in order to have a higher sense of happiness.
The third uncle is at home with the eldest brother who has become an idiot and coaxes him to play. With the third uncle to take care of, Yu Yuan is very relieved. He also made a follow-up plan, planning to let the clansmen come out, participate in the lives of ordinary people, learn to live in the current city, and keep up with the pace of the times.
However, this also contains dangers, because after all, the night ray is a race that needs to suck human blood to survive, in order to prevent the night ray integrated into human society from secretly hunting living people, it is also necessary to formulate stricter rules, strengthen the constraints on the clan, and strictly prohibit the creation of new mixed-blood night rays;
The black cat returned to Rehe in the north, lying on the front steps of the old man's house, looking at Liaoyang who was practicing in the yard, the orange cat had already returned to Shanggu City, and the heavy responsibility of guiding Liaoyang's cultivation really fell back on its Moge's shoulders.
Think back to a month ago, when it had just returned to this small farmhouse, it was not yet fully light. Standing on the eaves of Cui Laoqi's house, the head of Cuijia Village, it glanced softly, and there was movement in the house immediately. Old man Cui hurriedly put on a cotton coat, didn't even bother to put on his shoes, and opened the door with a squeak, and sure enough, he saw the familiar little black cat standing on the eaves opposite: "Oops!" The old man clapped his hands and stomped his feet, and was so anxious that he was about to cry: "My black grandfather, why don't you say that you will disappear, but I am in a hurry." ”
The black cat smiled, didn't say anything, jumped into the yard, and asked, "Do you have anything to eat?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes. Old man Cui hurriedly turned around and went back to the house and took out a steamed bun that had just been steamed the night before.
The black cat couldn't help but smile when he thought about it, and when the sun set, Liaoyang's cultivation today would be completed. It happened that Liaofeng came over and shouted that Liaofeng came over and shouted Liaoyang to go home for dinner. Old man Cui hurriedly trotted out of the kitchen, saying that he would not let him go, and forced Liao Feng to leave a piece to eat.
At dusk, smoke rises from the chimneys of every house, and the small village is full of human fireworks.
Yannan City, Yuqing Palace.
Feng Chen's old Taoist is taking Zhang Danyun to preach in the main hall, I don't know what the reason is, there are many more visitors to the palace today than in the past.
Because the entrance and exit of the inn were sealed in the battle a month ago, his second disciple Yang Yu and third disciple Lin Yao, as well as Wang Shixin, who served the two, were locked in the inn together and have not been able to come out so far.
After the old man finished preaching, everyone retreated. He closed the scripture and sighed, Zhang Danyun hurriedly came over to comfort him, but saw him shake his head lightly, and said to Zhang Danyun: "Your senior brother died in the Jinguan City of Shu in order to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and the second senior brother and the third senior brother were trapped and died in the inn. The future of our Yuqing Palace will only depend on you, and the only one who can inherit the mantle of the teacher is you. You have to work hard. ”
"Master rest assured, disciple will do his best. Zhang Danyun hurriedly bowed down.
Dragon Tiger Mountain, Heavenly Master's Mansion.
The Heavenly Master is teaching a group of disciples, including Zhang Ziliang, the Five Thunder Righteous Method.
Emperor Hill City.
After the end of the war, the Emperor Hill was destroyed, and the entrance and exit of the inn disappeared. Ying Cang and the other guards decided to leave some people in Diqiu City to guard their former home.
Now that the city is already being rebuilt, if nothing else, after the restoration is completed, the ordinary people who originally lived in the city will return and continue to live here, and the part of the guards who have decided to stay will also hide their identities and move to the city to live with ordinary people.
As for the other guards, they will be scattered in inn branches throughout Kyushu and continue to fulfill the important task of supervising Kyushu and maintaining order.
Shudi, small cave.
The Lich warriors waited for a long time, but in the end they couldn't wait for their leader and protector to come out. The entrance to the inn couldn't even be found by the guards, let alone those who didn't know them well. Under the persuasion of the night watchmen Xu Guan and Ouyang Qi, the innkeepers finally decided to let them come back, and they finally decided to come back, and the Hui continued to wait for the leader and the Dharma protectors. They believe that the adults will come back.
Upper Valley City.
After Xiao Ai's many strong requests, Bo Jun finally moved to live with her, and decided to protect Xiao Ai's second half of his life, the two of them were together, quite comfortable, Bo Jun found a night shift job, and went to work at night, during the day, after coming back to take a nap for half a day, he accompanied Xiao Ai and quietly watched her draw sketches.
Originally, they also invited the orange cat to live together, but the orange cat was used to being wild outside, so he politely refused the suggestion of the two of them, but they would come here every once in a while to eat and drink.
When it was just getting dark, Li Dazhuang and Wushuang walked to the same intersection from different streets and directions, and talked to each other in a low voice.
It turned out that Li Dazhuang and Wushuang decided to use their abilities to take on the responsibility of protecting the people, so the two of them began to patrol at night.
Tanuki Er sat on the sofa at home, turned her head to look out at the lights of the thousands of homes in the city, which couldn't help but make her heart even more sentimental, she was stunned by Wushuang that day, and when she woke up again, it was already a day later, he had been taken back to Shanggu City by Li Dazhuang, and arranged for her to live in Ouyang Qi's house. Fortunately, Ouyang Qi's home is big enough, with three bedrooms, she and Ouyang Qi each live in one, and Li Dazhuang and Wushuang share one, which is also good.
Originally, she wanted to go back to find the young lady, but when she heard that several Dharma protectors and leaders, as well as the three masters of the inn, had never appeared since the entrance and exit by the Yellow River disappeared, her heart was half cold;
When she didn't know where to go, Li Dazhuang tried his best to keep her, begging her to stay, and Ouyang Qi also welcomed her stay. So after some hesitation, she thanked Ouyang Qi and Li Dazhuang, and finally chose to stay.
As for Ouyang Qi, the night watchman of this term, he was not at home, nor was he patrolling the streets like Li Dazhuang and Wushuang, but went to Shunde City to visit Xu Guan.
Xu Guan was originally a native of Shunde City, and it was in Shunde City that he met Wu Yan four hundred years ago. After the end of the Diqiu War, he guarded the Yellow River for half a month, but no miracle happened, the big stone was still not restored, and the entrance and exit still did not appear. In fact, he also knew in his heart that once the two dimensions lost their bond, even if he guarded there for a hundred years, no one would be able to come back from the other dimension.
When he was disheartened, he had to return to Shunde City.
The location of his home 400 years ago has now become a park, in which there is an artificial lake, several small stone bridges, this night it snowed, the artificial lake was frozen with a thick and solid layer of ice, and the small stone bridge was also paved with a white layer; there is a pavilion in the middle of the lake, and in other places outside the lake, there are a number of various flowers and plants, but the relationship between winter is dry, and if you want to see the beautiful scenery of a hundred flowers blooming, I am afraid that you will have to wait until the spring of the next year.
On Park East Street, there is a noodle restaurant, and the clear soup and somen noodles are very authentic.
Ouyang Qi and Xu Guan were sitting at a small wooden table in the noodle restaurant, the inside of the noodle restaurant was brightly lit, and it was snowing heavily on the street outside.
"It's the middle of winter. Ouyang Qi looked at the falling snow outside the window.
"yes. Xu Guan looked out of the glass drunkenly, how similar this heavy snow was to the snow when he and Sister Lin first met four hundred years ago.
He raised his wine glass, clinked glasses with Ouyang Qi and drank again, getting more and more drunk. Ouyang Qi persuaded: "Senior, don't drink it." I want to discuss a serious matter with you, this time, I want to pick you up and live with me, the complete Qiankun recipe and jade pendant juniors you passed to me are not very subtle, and I still need your guidance. ”
"You have a very good talent, even if you don't have guidance by your side in the future, you can still cultivate to great success. Xu Guan refused, waved his hand, and raised his wine glass again.
"Senior, you better go back to Shanggu with me, everyone is there. Ouyang Qi snatched the wine glass and finally said what was in his heart, he really couldn't bear to leave Xu Guan alone here, four hundred years have passed, and this Shunde City has long been different.
"No, I won't go. Xu Guan shook his head. In a trance, he vaguely saw a familiar woman coming in at the door, Xu was so drunk that he couldn't see the woman's appearance clearly.
The woman smiled and said, "Who is going to take away my family's floating boy?"
"Sister Lin?" Xu Guan stood up suddenly, as if a ball of cotton had been blocked in his throat.
I saw the woman stretch out a hand: "Xiaoguan, let's go home." ”
"Good. Xu Guan choked up, stretched out his hand to shake the woman's hand, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
