Chapter 238: Back to the Old Place

Qing Ming lived in Gu Ji's mansion for a few more days, during which he also met Lin Aoqing, Luo Yunfei and Duan Jidao, of course Qing Ming didn't know them, but the three of them recognized Qing Ming, especially the white hair, which was no more obvious feature.

Duan Jidao watched Qing Ming pass by them, and he couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead. When he was at the gate of the Star Pavilion, Qing Ming was in a hurry to find the Qing Ming Sword, and accidentally bumped into Duan Jidao, who was in a very bad mood at that time and wanted to teach Qing Ming a lesson, but was later stopped by Lin Aoqing before giving up.

If he was reckless at that time and directly fought with Qing Ming, then the beam between them would have been concluded, judging from Qing Ming's behavior before, it was obvious that he was not a good type, he was ruthless to the enemy, and even Sheng Tianqi had not escaped in his hands, let alone himself.

Qing Ming felt a few eyes staring at him, so he stopped, turned his head and looked back, Lin Aoqing and the three of them were indeed staring straight at him, Qing Ming wondered in his heart, did they know themselves, or something on their bodies caught their attention.

He only saw Luo Yunfei smiling at him, Lin Aoqing didn't have any superfluous expressions on his face, and Duan Dao's eyes were looking around, but his eyes were not on him.

Qing Ming ignored them and walked away.

"Big brother, second brother, I don't think there's anything special about that kid!" Duan Jidao glanced at Qing Ming again, and it wasn't until he disappeared from his field of vision that he whispered to Lin Aoqing and Luo Yunfei.

"You'll find out next time you try him directly!" Lin Aoqing glanced at Duan Daodao and said lightly, obviously dissatisfied with the incident where Duan Daodao almost clashed with Qing Ming last time.

After Lin Aoqing finished speaking, he turned around and stopped looking at Duan a few words, and left first.

"Third brother, control your reckless personality in the future, don't make trouble for us again!" Luo Yunfei smiled and patted Duan Daodao's shoulder, and also walked in the direction of Lin Aoqing's departure.

Duan muttered a few times, scratched the back of his head, and watched Lin Aoqing and Luo Yunfei leave, and hurriedly followed.

Two days later, on the sea of the West Sea, more than ten kilometers away from Wuhuazhou, a sailboat carrying three people headed towards the depths of the sea.

There were no ships in sight here, there was only one ship on the vast sea, and the three people on board were Qingming, Xiaoluo, and Lingxi.

Han Piao left with Luo Qingyi and the others the day after Lingxi's injuries were healed, and they also needed to prepare for the Shengyuan Academy's exam in three months, and the enrollment of Shengyuan Academy was a big deal for the entire Shengyuan Empire.

Han Piao repeatedly asked Qing Ming if he would go, but Qing Ming didn't realize that he was not interested in Shengyuan Academy, so he made up an excuse that he still had something to do and might not be able to go. Han Piao has always known Qing Ming's character, as long as he believes in something, no one can convince him, so she no longer persuades.

Qing Ming said that he would go to see her when he had time in the future, and as soon as these words came out, Han Piao, who was still a little lonely, suddenly became excited, and kept telling Qing Ming to remember this agreement.

Qing Ming could only nod helplessly.

At this time, the boat that Qing Ming and the three of them were on was the kind of ordinary sailboat carrying passengers, they didn't need to control the boat by themselves, there were Xiaoluo and Lingxi, the two of them knew everything about the sea well, and the strength of the wind and the direction of the wind were not a problem at all.

So the three of them just stayed at the bow of the boat, and the ship would go as fast as it could.

The sea is so blue that the blue sea and the sky reflect each other, and it is impossible to tell which side is the sky and which side is the sea.

The sea breeze hit, with a slightly moist and slightly salty smell, and the sea surface rushed to the door of the green face, and a familiar breath suddenly surged into my heart.

Whenever summer came, he would lie on the beach with the little priest brother to bask in the sun, and the wind at that time seemed to smell like this, moist and slightly sweet, slightly warm, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

A smile appeared on the corner of Qing Ming's mouth, as if he had returned to that summer again, when he and the little priest were making a fuss on the beach, while their master Du Xue was reading a book in the long pavilion.

The bell in the corner of the pavilion rang in the sea breeze for a summer......

Some people will not come back once they leave, and some things will leave a mark in their hearts once they have happened, like a nail in a stake, even if the nail is pulled out again, there is a hole in the stake.

The past passed by with the wind, and the past scenes kept coming to Qingming's mind, and everything was vivid, as if it were yesterday.

A voice came from behind "Brother Qing Ming", Qing Ming was pulled back to reality by this voice, and when he turned around, the person who spoke was Ling Xi.

Lingxi's face was a little lonely, and she was still following Xiaoluo.

"It's almost there, isn't it?" Qing Ming smiled.

Lingxi didn't speak when she arrived, but Xiaoluo said it instead of Lingxi: "Yes, the way back to us is ahead!"

At this moment, Lingxi walked over and hugged Qing Ming, Qing Ming couldn't help but be stunned, and then patted her head.

"Xiao Lingxi, don't forget our agreement, when your strength is strong enough, it's not too late to help me again!"

Ling Xi didn't speak, just nodded, and her whole body trembled slightly, and a whimper came from Qing Ming's arms.

After a quarter of an hour of silence, the boat sailed quickly on the boundless sea, and when they reached their destination, Xiaoluo and Lingxi turned into two mermaids and jumped into the water, the sea was their real home.

Lingxi was still reluctant to give up, floating on the water and looking at Qing Ming, her eyes were hazy with tears.

Qing Ming stood at the bow of the boat, a smile on his face, and clapped his hands at her.

It wasn't until Xiaoluo's urging that Lingxi followed her to swim into the depths of the sea, watching them gradually disappear on the sea level, Qing Ming couldn't help but sigh, parting is always the theme of life, there is no banquet in the world, it is always he himself who has gone through too much life and death, but every time he can't be calm in his heart.

Qing Ming stood quietly at the bow of the boat, the wind seemed to stop, the ship did not move, and all things in heaven and earth seemed to respond to Qing Ming, and they all fell into thought.

In half a moment, the sea breeze blew again, but this time it was not the southeast wind, but the northeast wind, everything was just as Xiaoluo said, soon after, the wind on the sea will change from southeast to northeast, and at that time, Qing Ming can follow this wind back to the mainland.

Sure enough, Qing Ming took advantage of the ship and returned to the southern waters of the Shengyuan Empire along the northeast wind.

It's just that he returned to the sea area where Changting Island is located.

The sea area is still there, but the figure of Changting Zhou is gone, looking at the empty sea, Qing Ming can't help but feel a sense of melancholy in his heart. One night in Changtingzhou

disappeared as if it had never been in this world.

If Chang Tingzhou is an illusion, then he has lived there for more than ten years, is he also an illusion?

Qing Ming felt a moment of confusion, he had heard what the bull riding shepherd boy Cang Bin said, it might be related to the people of the Central Realm.

What is the Central Realm? Where will it be? Qing Ming wondered in his heart, but no one could answer his question.

Nowadays, there are many boats fishing on the sea, and the once formidable Lingjiang River, which has endless legends, seems to have lost its legendary color at this moment with the disappearance of Changting Zhou.

Without Changtingzhou, there is naturally no Lingjiang.

In the past, the sea area where Changting Island was located has become a harvest paradise for fishermen, and looking at the smiles on their faces, you can know that they have also harvested quite a lot today.

The small boat that Qing Ming was standing on was gradually approaching from the far sea, and many fishermen couldn't help but show a look of surprise on their faces when they saw Qing Ming, and they stopped their movements and looked at him with inquiring eyes.

Qing Ming just smiled at them, and when he cast a phantom step, he suddenly crossed the sea and came to the shore.

The fishermen were horrified when they saw this.

It wasn't until Qing Ming disappeared at the end of the path that they began to whisper......

Qing Ming walked forward along the familiar road, and after walking for about half an hour, he came to Los Angeles, where everything that happened is still vivid, the Soul Eater turned this place into a dead city, and now the entire city is in ruins, broken walls, and long grass grows everywhere.

Since that incident, people have been afraid to come here, and even if they pass by, they have avoided it from a distance, as if it would become ominous when they get here.

Qing Ming didn't think so much, he stepped on the gravel all the way to the square where the Soul Eater appeared at that time, the current square was already cracked, if he wasn't there at the time, Qing Ming would never think that this area in front of him would have been a square.

After nearly a quarter of an hour in Los Angeles, just as he was about to leave, a sudden gust of wind blew from behind him, and he instinctively felt a chill, and turned his head to look, but did not find anything unusual.

Thinking that this place should not stay for long, he left here.

At the moment when he left, in the darkness of a ruin in Los Angeles, a black shadow appeared, looking at the direction of Qing Ming's departure, he laughed a few times, and then disappeared in the darkness again......

In addition to Los Angeles, along the avenue all the way to the north, there is gradually a flow of people, large and small carriages walking in the middle of the road, carriages carrying heavy goods, and there are many people sitting on the top of the goods, look at their dress, obviously ordinary people.

Qing Ming was surprised in his heart, seeing them like this, as if he was fleeing.

The further north you go, the more common this becomes, and the way they look, it looks like they're walking towards the east.

Qing Ming casually asked a farmer-looking big brother what was going on.

The eldest brother is also very honest, saying that they fled to escape the war, and now the entire southern Xinjiang has fallen into a state of stormy and devastating cities, and they are all in chaos, and if they don't leave, their lives may be gone.

Qing Ming still wanted to ask, but the eldest brother waved his hand again and again and said that he still had to hurry, and told him to ask the others again.

Seeing him like that, he was obviously afraid of something, and he didn't want to say any more!
