The stone lamps on both sides of the courtyard flickered on and off.

The wind howled in the forest, and the stilted building made an overwhelming creaking sound.

Boom~

Once again, the dead leaves that had gathered on the ground were blown away.

Yan Jiujiu held a broom in his right hand, and lifted the skirt dragged on the ground in his left hand.

Over and over again, tirelessly, sweeping the leaves and dead vines on the ground into a pile.

The wind does not stop,

Gather and blow apart......

After a long time, there was a very small human voice in the stilted building.

"The furnace is already burning, can it be added?"

The sound is subtle, but it is still captured.

Yan Jiujiu got up and walked up.

He went into the building and into the house.

The room was very dark, but I still found the location of the incense burner based on my impression.

Call!

The fire was kindled and stretched into the censer.

Immediately, smoke wafted up.

The expression of the man on the mural seems to change slightly, as if he is smiling.

Yan Jiujiu's expression was the same as before, and his face remained indifferent.

Out of the house, to the trellises,

Holding the knife, he began to take care of the intricate branches and leaves again.

Her pupils were not in focus, and it seemed that all of these actions and movements were habitual and unconscious.

The western sky was becoming more and more blindingly red, as thick as a layer of dried blood.

Through the cracks in the leaves of the dense forest, dappled spots of light are sprinkled.

No one noticed that there was already one more person in the courtyard.

Without warning, it seemed to appear out of nowhere.

The figure was wearing a red palace dress, with lotus hair and a half-black and half-white phoenix-patterned mask on his face, and he could tell from his slender figure that it was a woman.

Silence.

She didn't make a sound, but locked her gaze on the stilted building, her eyes peeking out of the holes in her mask, and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes could be seen.

Yan Jiujiu didn't notice her either, but continued to numbly repeat the movements of her hands.

Until the jackdaw flies by, and cries out wailing.

The two of them woke up like a dream.

"Mother......

After seeing the woman in the courtyard, Yan Jiujiu's body trembled, and his face was suddenly dull.

"Yan'er, you've grown up!" the woman's voice was clean and had an indescribable taste.

As she spoke, she pressed her hand to her cheek and gently lifted it.

Smack!

The phoenix mask fell to the ground.

A delicate face came into view.

"Giggle.......

The voice choked in his throat, and a layer of mist quickly appeared in Yan Jiujiu's eyes, sobbing silently, and his whole body stiffened.

"September. ”

The contours of the woman's facial features are very delicate, but there are some seeping eyes, and on the white skin, there are thin red lines that are not bulging, which are intertwined in series and cover the entire face.

A flick of the wide sleeves.

Click......

There was a cracking sound, and the space around it cracked like a mirror.

With thorough crushing.

The surrounding scenery began to reappear.

Yan Jiuyue, who was originally standing on the stilted building, stood in front of the woman out of thin air.

The two stood in the courtyard, looking at each other.

"Mother......

A thousand words finally turned into tears that broke the embankment, and the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time completely exploded.

Yan Jiujiu cried, and the image of the past instantly dissipated, and she threw herself into the woman's arms.

On the woman's red cheeks, there was no expression fluctuation, very indifferent, very indifferent.

It's a strange contrast.

"Come back to Makuya with me, they're all looking forward to you. ”

Yan Jiujiu's crying stopped.

As if waking up from a dream, the whole person immediately woke up, pushed away the woman in front of him, and took two steps back.

"You're not, you're not ......"

"You're her!"

"You're a shadow killer. ”

Her face was terrified, and the tears on her cheeks were not dry, but she forced herself to appear calm.

The woman flicked her sleeves lightly and put her hands behind her back: "What's the difference between me and her, you are also my child after all." ”

"How did you come up?" The disordered breathing gradually calmed down, Yan Jiujiu's eyes returned to clarity, and he didn't answer the woman's words, but asked in a cold voice.

Hiss~

The woman took a long breath, looked around, glanced around, and muttered to herself: "Four years, every scene and thing on this mountain, I have long remembered clearly, why is it difficult to go up the mountain." ”

"What are you doing here?" Yan Jiujiu distanced herself from her, very guarded.

"Take him away. The woman's eyes were clear, like midnight, and she looked into the house.

"No way!"

Yan Jiujiu's brows furrowed, his fists clenched, and his nails unconsciously sank deep into the flesh.

She blocked her body at the entrance of the small building, secretly mobilizing the true qi in the sea of qi.

The woman glanced at Yan Jiujiu and saw what she was thinking, but she just snorted lightly and made a move with one hand.

Wow.

Inside the building and in the house, a hanging painting flew out.

Yan Jiujiu's face changed greatly when he saw this, and he was about to reach out to grab it, but he immediately felt a heavy pressure coming over.

As soon as his legs were weak, he crawled directly to the ground.

The painting fell straight into the woman's hand, and it was a portrait.

In the painting, a man dressed in white sits on the ground, with a golden furnace of animal horns in front of him.

"I do have some ability, I can trap him in the painting, Ning Qiuhe has grown a lot over the years. ”

After glancing at it, the woman rolled up the canvas.

"Give me back ......"

Yan Jiujiu's pupils were bloody, and her voice was faintly pleading.

"Come back to Makuya with me, you don't have to accompany that old guy to death. ”

"Give me back ......"

"That's fine. ”

The woman sighed, saw the awe-inspiring killing intent flashing in Yan Jiujiu's eyes, and gradually turned around.

"Give me back ......"

Yan Jiujiu's hands slammed into the ground, his knuckles turned white, but he couldn't move at all.

The woman gradually walked away, and the voice in her mouth could only turn into a silent roar.

Completely heartbroken.

"Brother......

.......

Return to your accommodation.

Fang Yang found that at this time, the sky had changed from fiery red to dry blood.

The true qi between heaven and earth became thinner and thinner, and along the way, he tried, but it was already difficult to communicate with the bridge between heaven and earth, and the release of secret methods and spells was extremely difficult.

His mood gradually calmed down, and he calmed down a lot.

After calling the miscellaneous disciples and making two buckets of hot water for himself, Fang Yang got into the wooden basin.

Because of the breakthrough into the form, coupled with the peeling of the embryo shell, there is a lot of black filth on his body.

Pick up a wet wipe and wipe it carefully.

This was the first time he had observed this new body.

The skin is very white and tender, especially the lower limbs, because it has just grown, and there is a little blood that has not been shed.

The hair was a little messy because it was too long, and a few strands of hair had fallen to the waist.

Fang Yang had a headache about this.

I'm almost the same as an ordinary person now, but only my hair, nails, and eyebrows seem to have grown too fast, and I don't know if it's the characteristics of this body.

After wiping his body clean, he stood up and trimmed his hair and nails slightly.

Seeing his unfamiliar face in the mirror again, Fang Yang still felt a little unreal.

Refreshing and clean, when you put on white clothes, you suddenly have a smell of dust.

After a quarter of an hour, he sat down on the bed with a proud face, and breathed intently.

Now we have to rush to restore ourselves to our full state before the true qi between heaven and earth completely dissipates.

In just two minutes, Fang Yang successfully entered the decision.

Rustle rustle.......

The hourglass on the table, a little seeping, the sound made was clearly audible in the quiet room.
