Chapter 357: Clan Annihilation

The next day, a piece of news exploded in Yin'an.

The Xun clan was wiped out overnight, in a very tragic and strange way.

Xun Mansion up and down, the tongue of fire is all over the sky, it was extinguished in the morning, only a black piece of broken wall remains, dilapidated and desolate, the newly appointed court captain of Dali Temple, Lord Yan, personally led the troops to investigate, ordered people to carry out dozens of corpses that had been burned black, and could not distinguish who was who.

The onlookers gathered in the distance, pointing and pointing, their faces full of embarrassment and regret.

This is a poetry and book heirloom, a big family of honesty and integrity, who would have thought that it would be gone in one night.

"Did the ghosts do it? The Midyear Festival is coming soon, and the ghosts in this city have been extremely restless lately. Some people whispered.

"No, what kind of ghost will use fire to burn the house, isn't it easier to eat people directly?"

"It's so miserable, I don't know if there is still a mouth...... "One sighed.

"The door of this house is not locked, how can it all be burned to death? It's so strange......

Everyone was discussing, and suddenly the officers and soldiers came over and bombarded people: "It's all scattered, scattered, don't surround it!"

The crowd dispersed unsatisfied, and was about to leave, when suddenly a person walked out of the scorched darkness.

The man's clothes were burned to rags, dirty, stained from head to toe, his whole body was dusty, and on one face, only a pair of whites of the eyes could be seen.

The spectators stopped and looked at him in astonishment, and saw that he was not very tall, and if you looked closely, you could see that the clothes were of great value, not those handed down by the servants.

After a few more serious glances, you can still recognize the round outline of his face, which is a little childish.

"Could he be the little boy of the Xun clan?" exclaimed one of the people in the crowd.

Everyone whispered.

Lord Yan walked quickly to the man, looked at it carefully, and asked, "But Xiao Gongzi Xun?"

Xun Guangyan was silent, there was no trace of brilliance in his eyes, and his face was full of Mu Ran.

Lord Yan glanced at a guard beside him, the guard immediately ran away, and soon took a clean coat, Lord Yan handed the clothes to Xun Guangyan, and said: "Little Master Xun, you will do it first, and wait for the official to send you there......"

"Where are you going?" Xun Guangyan's voice suddenly sounded, he slowly looked at Lord Yan, there was a dead silence in his eyes, and there was still no sparkle, "Where else can I go?"

"The Xun Mansion is gone, and the Xun clan is gone!" he said in a hoarse voice with a cry in his voice.

The side branches of the Xun clan are still there, but for the Yin'an clan, all the descendants have been wiped out, which is equivalent to the dead clan.

"My lord!" a guard trotted over quickly, kneeling down and said, "The corpses of the Xun Mansion have been counted, and the identities of the Xun Patriarch, the Xun Second Patriarch, and the housekeeper of a small servant have all been confirmed one by one, but only Miss Xun Er has not been found." ”

The sorrow in Xun Guangyan's eyes just swelled up, and when he heard the guard say the last sentence, his eyes suddenly froze, he suddenly looked up at the guard, stepped forward in a few steps, grabbed his wrist with one hand, and said eagerly: "Is Xun Yuse still alive?"

The guard didn't react, he looked at Xun Guangyan in a daze, he shook his head a little sluggishly, and then changed to nodding again.

"Is she dead or alive?! Live to see people, dead to see corpses!" Xun Guangyan was particularly emotional.

The guards let Xun Guangyan pull his wrist, but he didn't break free, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Xiao Gongzi Xun, among all the corpses, no corpse was found in Miss Xun Er, and the villain guessed that she was still alive." ”

Xun Guangyan, who heard the answer, slowly let go of his hand, with a hint of hope in his eyes, and something in his mouth, suddenly he ran up and went straight towards the Sheng Mansion.

He hadn't taken a few steps when he saw a horse-drawn carriage coming this way, with a white paper lantern with the word "Sheng" written on it hanging on one side of the front of the carriage.

Xun Guangyan was like a fierce beast facing the attack of natural enemies, the hair on his body exploded in an instant, his eyes flashed with fierce light, and he stared at the carriage that was getting closer and closer to him.

The person on the other end of the carriage obviously also saw Xun Guangyan, and a small servant on the side of the carriage glanced at Xun Guangyan a few times, and immediately approached the carriage that was still moving, and his mouth moved slightly, obviously telling the people in the car about the situation outside.

Just about ten steps away from Xun Guangyan, the carriage stopped.

Xun Guangyan's whole body became more and more tense, his eyes became more and more fierce, his eyes were fixed on the curtain in front of the carriage, as if he was waiting for the curtain to be opened, as soon as the people in the carriage came, he was about to pounce on the other party and tear the other party to pieces.

The curtain of the carriage moved at this time, and it was lifted by the people in the carriage, revealing the face of a little maidservant, and the little maid looked in the direction of Xun Guangyan through the half-opened curtain, with a look of surprise on her face, and then quickly turned her head and said something to the other person inside.

Then the little maid turned back again and jumped out of the carriage first, and she lifted the curtain all the way and helped the other man in the carriage to get down.

The fierce light in Xun Guangyan's eyes had slowly faded.

It's not Sheng Zhuohuai, it's not Sheng Shuiyu, it's not Sheng Wuyu.

It's Xun Yunliu.

Xun Yunliu straightened her clothes and walked towards Xun Guangyan quickly, every time she took a step, the expression on her face changed a point, looking at Xun Guangyan, who was almost unrecognizable in a scorched black body, she felt distressed, self-blame, sadness, despair, and pain......

All emotions came to my heart in an instant.

As soon as he approached, before Xun Guangyan could speak, Xun Yunliu hugged him tightly: "Looking for it, don't be afraid, and I ......"

Her words were soft and weak, but they were like a cool spring water, instantly watering Xun Guangyan's scorched and dried heart.

Swiftly and powerfully, it instantly hit a wall that Xun Guangyan had temporarily erected in his heart in order to avoid his grief.

The walls collapsed and the army collapsed.

Xun Guangyan finally shed his first tears after waking up from the fire.

He hugged Xun Yunliu with both hands, buried his head in Xun Yunliu's shoulder, and whimpered.

After both of them calmed down a little, Xun Yunliu said, "How about you go back to Sheng Mansion with me?"

Xun Guangyan's face froze, and the next moment, he suddenly shook off Xun Yunliu's hand on his sleeve, gritted his teeth and sneered: "Sheng Mansion?

Xun Yunliu's eyes flashed with pain, her voice lowered a little, and said, "You know?"

"Of course I know!" Xun Guangyan's emotions became excited again, "It was they who set fire to me viciously in an attempt to destroy my Xun clan's lineage! Kill your father, kill my parents, and ......"

and Xun Yuse, but her life and death are uncertain now, and he doesn't know what happened to her.

"I know it all. The tears that Xun Yuse had endured just now overflowed in his eyes again, "But what's the use of knowing, things have already happened." ”

"I'm going to find Xun Yuse. Xun Guangyan bypassed Xun Yunliu and walked forward, he walked a few steps, stopped again, and turned his head to look at Xun Yunliu, "In the future, do you want to be the third young lady of the Sheng clan, or the eldest lady of the Xun clan?"

Xun Yunliu replied without thinking about it: "Miss Xun." ”

"Okay, remember your words today!" Xun Guangyan turned around and continued to walk forward, and soon, his figure disappeared into the corner of the street.
