In the corner of the town, there is a small farm yard. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the periphery of the courtyard was a circle of bamboo fences, and inside were several low, dilapidated houses, one of which had a faint yellow fire flickering, and the night wind blew through a few cracks in the old windows, and the fire was so bright that it seemed to be extinguished several times.

"Hurry out, there's a guest coming. The old man's tone was full of joy.

Hearing the old man's shout, the dilapidated wooden door creaked open from the inside, and then an old woman with a somewhat rickety back, gray hair, and a kind face, wearing a light blue coarse cloth, walked out: "Guest?"

The old woman's tone was full of questions, but when he saw Qi Xuan standing behind the old man, his eyes suddenly lit up: "There are really guests coming, come, come, hurry in, it's cold and windy outside, and you old man doesn't let guests in, let people blow cold wind outside." ”

Although the wife was scolding the old man, she could hear from her tone that she was as happy as the old man, and after the wife finished speaking, she walked in front of Qi Xuan and grabbed Qi Xuan with a pair of calloused hands: "Child, come in quickly, it's cold." ”

The old woman's seemingly ordinary words made Qi Xuan's heart flow through a warm current, the old woman's hands were very rough, but for Qi Xuan, at this moment, these hands were the warmest hands in the world.

Walking into the house, Qi Xuan raised his eyes and saw that the room was extremely empty, except for a table in the middle and a dilapidated angiosperm plant with exposed cotton in the corner, and the surrounding walls were full of large and small cracks. When the night breeze rises, like naughty children, they burrow into the house through cracks and run around with coldness.

At this time, there was not much oil left in the oil lamp, and the light gradually dimmed, and the old woman did not know where to take out a small oil pot, and carefully poured the lamp oil into the oil lamp, and with the injection of lamp oil, the lamp became bright again.

"Old woman, hurry up and get a few side dishes to greet our little brother. The old man put on a coat that also showed cotton everywhere, rubbed his hands vigorously, and said happily.

"This." Hearing the old man's words, the old woman's happy face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and her tone became slurred.

Seeing the old woman like this, the old man was a little unhappy: "Hurry up, do you want our guests to be hungry." ”

"Alas, there is no more rice in the rice bowl. The old woman said, and suddenly cried, crystal tears seeping out from her cloudy eyes, making Qi Xuan feel inexplicably worried when she looked at it.

"Mother-in-law, I'm not hungry!" Qi Xuan looked at the old woman and smiled slightly.

The old woman was silent for a while, then turned and walked out of the house, and after a while there was a rooster crow, and then she was dumb again, and when the old woman came in again, she already had a bloody hen in her hand.

"Why did you kill the only hen in the house, and we expect her to lay eggs every day, you?" The old man looked at the hen in the old woman's hand, which was already breathless, and was a little angry, but then he sighed: "Alas, go get it, you can't say anything to treat our guests slowly." ”

Looking at the two simple old men, Qi Xuan's heart suddenly ached, and he wanted to say something, but he found that his throat was choked, but he couldn't say anything, and for a while, the room fell into a deathly silence.

The old man took out a handful of dry tobacco pouches from his waist, lit the fire, and smoked vigorously.

After a long time, Qi Xuan's mood calmed down, and a gust of cold wind blew in, making Qi Xuan shiver coldly.

"Cold, boy, come and put this on. After the old man finished speaking, he took off the coat on his body and put it on Qi Xuan, and the faint body temperature left on the coat made Qi Xuan feel a lot warmer.

"Uncle, why is it so cold here?"

"You're from the South, aren't you?"

Qi Xuan nodded.

"It's already north, and it's close to a big snowy mountain, so it's okay before June, it won't be so cold, and you can grow some crops. But after June, it started to get cold, and at this time, we could survive the cold weather with the grain we had harvested, but now the food was all robbed by the bully, alas. ”

The old man sighed and continued: "There is no food, some young people in the town have to form a team to enter the snowy mountains to hunt some prey, but the fierce beasts in the snowy mountains are very powerful, and the prey that can be harvested every time is quite small. ”

Hunting? Qi Xuan's heart suddenly lit up, and when he was about to say something to the old man, a young but very tired voice came from outside the house: "Uncle, I brought you meat." ”

"You see, this is not coming, we have no children and no daughters, and at this time, they will send us some meat from time to time. After the old man finished speaking, he opened the door and happily welcomed the person in.

It was a young man in his early twenties, dressed as a hunter, with a few scratches on his face, and blood stains all over his body, and he didn't know whose it was, and when he came in, he put a large piece of meat that had been cut up on the table, and rubbed his hands vigorously.

"What we encountered this time was so powerful that we managed to hunt it, but several people were injured. "The young man looked tired.

The old man brought a bowl of hot water and said with concern: "Hurry up and drink to warm up, you are fine." ”

"Hey, it's okay, it's just that I was scratched a few times by that brute in the face. The young man said indifferently on his simple face.

"Who is this?" After the young man drank the hot water, he found Qi Xuan sitting on the side.

"Oh, this is a guest from outside. The old man enthusiastically introduced.

"Great, brother, my name is Xiao Shan, what's your name?" the young man's tired face was excited at the moment.

"My name is Qi Xuan!" Qi Xuan smiled back in the face of the young man's enthusiasm.

"Brother, I have to go first, I have several places to deliver meat, you must tell me about the outside when you have time. I've never been out of here. Xiao Shan tightened the clothes on his body, smiled at Qi Xuan honestly, and then walked outside.

"Xiaoshanzi, it's cold outside, remember to go home quickly after delivery. Looking at Xiao Shan's distant back, the old man said loudly.

"Okay, uncle!" When Xiao Shan's voice came, he couldn't see his figure anymore, and there was only endless darkness in sight.

"Uncle, when is the next time they hunt, I want to help. ”

"No, kid, that's too dangerous. When the old man heard this, he shook his head again and again.

"It's okay, uncle. I'll take care of myself. ”

"No, resolutely no, how can you let a child take risks. The old man's attitude was very resolute.

Faced with the old man's attitude, Qi Xuan didn't say anything more, but quietly made up an idea in his heart.

The old woman quickly stewed the hen into a pot of soup, because there were no other condiments to add, so this pot of chicken soup had some fishy smell in addition to the salty taste, but Qi Xuan drank it in his mouth, but he felt that this was the best chicken soup he had ever drunk in his life.

Looking at the kind and kind eyes of the two old men, Qi Xuan finally couldn't help shedding tears, but he lowered his head too low and didn't let the two old men see it.

"Son, you're staying here tonight. After drinking the chicken soup, the old woman led Qi Xuan to another room, which was also very dilapidated, but a thick new quilt was unexpectedly placed on the bed.

"This is my son's room, and this new quilt was originally intended for him to use when he got married, but." By this time, the old woman had stopped crying.

"Mother-in-law, what's going on. Feeling the old woman's sadness, Qi Xuan couldn't help but ask with concern.

"A year ago, when a bully came to steal food, my son got angry and got into an argument with him, and was beaten to death by him. ”

The old woman was in tears, but quickly wiped away her tears: "Look at what I said, child, you should rest quickly." With that, he turned and walked out.

Looking at the lonely back of the old woman, Qi Xuan made a decision in his heart: "Old woman, don't worry, your hatred, your hatred, I will help you avenge it." ”

"Boy, you are seriously injured now, and I advise you to leave your mind alone. Yan Ruchen's voice sounded abruptly in Qi Xuan's mind.

"Some people have to be killed. Some people deserve to be guarded with their lives. ”

The short words made Yan Ruchen silent for a long time.

"Boy, I didn't misread you. I have observed the true qi in your body, and there will be no rejection for the time being, and you can just take care of your internal injuries here. That being said, don't use your True Qi until you find a solution, or you'll probably explode and die. ”

"However, you can cultivate your spiritual power during this time. In order to save your life, I pity you and teach you some spiritual secret skills. ”

Qi Xuan just wanted to ask a question, but suddenly felt a pain in his brain, a feeling of bloating, and then there were a lot of words about the use of spiritual power in his mind.

"I just used my spiritual power to imprint the Shocking Thorn and the Chaos Array in your brain, you'd better practice diligently, and when the time comes, maybe you can save your life in adversity." ”

Yan Ruchen didn't move anymore after saying this, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep again.

After the initial shock, Qi Xuan roughly browsed the Shocking Thorn and the Chaotic God Array in his mind, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he muttered: "Shocking Divine Thorn, Chaotic God Array, it's really exciting." ”
