Chapter 32: Warning
In the early morning of this day, the sky was just white, and the morning glow was red in every corner of Banju City.
The Li family's house, although not as magnificent as the palace, is a pavilion, the eaves are high, the courtyard is in the city but not noisy, the environment is quiet and elegant, the layout is full of style, it can be regarded as a rare quiet place in the entire Liang Dynasty.
Outside the Tongxiang Pavilion, the faint moss climbed the stairs, a bright and handsome young man in a black robe stood by himself, the Russian breeze rose, the fragrant wind next to him, and the soft woman in a red dress smiled like a flower, which made the young man's heartbeat accelerate suddenly.
"You finally came to me, I saw you so imposing in the proving ground that day!"
The delicate voice that makes people feel numb to death, lazy and pleasant, and the ears are full of irresistible charm.
"I'm here to thank you!"
The black-clothed young man tried his best to keep his eyes open and said, "During the time I was away, I was taken care of by the Zhou family!"
Zhou Ling rested for a day, then said goodbye to Binglan, granted a five-day holiday, and decided to go home to visit his parents.
Before leaving Banzhou, he came to Li Tong's residence to thank him for taking care of the Zhou family for a year.
"This is what a sister should do, and my sister will definitely agree to anything else my brother has!"
Li Tong lay lazily on the antique chair, and the voice full of charm made Zhou Ling's heartbeat speed up a little.
"Just for this matter!" Zhou Ling's gaze avoided the two long legs that made people infinitely reverie, "I, Zhou Ling, owe Sister Li Tong a favor, and I will do my best to help with all the needs in the future." ”
"Hehe, okay, then hug my sister again!"
Li Tong got up slowly, his full chest seemed to be about to burst, and he twisted his slender waist and slowly walked towards Zhou Ling.
Smelling the increasingly strong aroma of women, Zhou Ling, who was less and less careless, couldn't help but take two steps back in a hurry, and almost hit the pillar next to him.
"Sister Li Tong, don't tease me, Zhou Ling doesn't dare to think about my sister at all. ”
Seeing Zhou Ling's anxious and incoherent face, Li Tong couldn't help but laugh.
"You just need to remember that you owe me a favor to the Li family, and I hope you can fulfill your promise. ”
"Nature does what it says!"
Zhou Ling saw that Li Tong finally stopped bothering, so he stood up straight and said solemnly.
"According to the information I got, Zeng Yuecheng has secretly sent someone to target your family, you better go back as soon as possible to take a look!"
"What?"
Zhou Ling never thought that Zeng Yuecheng would be so calculating, and his son couldn't do anything about him, so Lao Tzu threatened his family.
"Thank you!"
After hearing the news, Zhou Ling hurriedly said goodbye and left!
"If there is a day, I hope you will be on my side!"
The morning sun is rising, the daylight is hazy, looking at Zhou Ling who disappeared into the depths of the courtyard, Li Tong stroked Dai with both hands and muttered to himself.
Zhou Ling took Shi Yao and ran quickly all the way in the direction of Qingyan Town.
"Brother, you're walking too fast!" Shi Yao asked with a gasp.
"It's important to go home to see your parents!"
In order to avoid Shiyao's worry, Zhou Ling did not tell her the truth.
Qingyan Town, located in the northernmost part of the Liang Dynasty, here is steep mountains, sparsely populated, although the scenery is beautiful, but the road is closed, the slightly better family background is relocated to the city, only some poor and lonely people are settled here.
Surrounded by mountains, in a simple house surrounded by bamboo forests, a middle-aged man with half-white hair is hunched up, holding a broom made of bamboo strips tied together, sweeping the fallen leaves on the ground with some difficulty, holding one hand on his waist, enduring the body pain caused by bowing his head and bending over.
Behind the bamboo forest, two figures lie in the depths of the jungle, observing the every move of the middle-aged man sweeping the floor.
"I really don't know, let's stare at him for what he is doing, how to say that it is also the strength of a military general, how can he become a bad old man now, what is the threat to the Zeng family!" one of them said impatiently.
"Don't underestimate him, there was a martial king in his family, this guy was a martial arts wizard of the Great Liang Dynasty back then, but I heard that after the failure of the attack on the martial king, his strength plummeted, and since then he has been in a slump. Another said.
"It's better to just do it, so as not to waste our time wandering around, I know there's a good place in town." A man with a sharp beak said evilly.
"you! Just know how to play! The master must not kill indiscriminately if he doesn't speak, besides, this person is also a martial arts cultivator, how can he be so easy to provoke. ”
"Huh!
Seeing that the other party was not interested, the man had no choice but to give up, holding a bamboo stick in his mouth and playing with it.
This middle-aged man is naturally Zhou Ling's father, Zhou Zhen, after a year, he has become more old and frail, and his body has more and more diseases.
Compared with the original, not only has his cultivation strength declined now, but his physical condition has also deteriorated, and his nearly fifty-year-old age looks like he is in his last years.
"Stop sweeping, it's time to eat!"
In the haze, Zhou Zhen seemed to hear a familiar shout, and he turned his head to look at it, with a bright smile on his face.
I saw Zhou Ling's mother, Xiao Qin, but she was still as gentle and peaceful as before, she had never cultivated martial arts, she still had black hair, and the wrinkles on her face were hidden deep in anxiety and sorrow.
She leaned against the door and called out to Zhou Zhen, while patting the wood ash on her body when cooking with her hand.
Zhou Zhen was still silent, and he didn't know if he heard it or not, he looked up and made sure that it had been cleaned thoroughly, so he gently put the broom outside the door and walked slowly into the house along a few steps.
"Xiao Qin, where are you?"
Guarding the empty room in front of him, Zhou Zhen and his line of tears slipped from the corners of their eyes.
Let's say that Zhou Ling took Shi Yao all the way to hurry, and hired a horse to gallop in the middle, and finally arrived in Qingyan Town, which made Shi Yao so tired that she couldn't complain.
At this time, it was only a few miles away from home, and most of the acquaintances in the town avoided him as if they had seen a killing god, and no one was willing to approach him and talk, so they avoided Zhou Ling when they saw him.
"Brother Zhou Ling, why are they so afraid of you?" Shi Yao asked puzzled.
"I feel weird, too! But it's definitely not a good thing!"
Zhou Ling was also confused by this strange scene, but his intuition told him that there must be something at home!
Getting closer and closer to home, the undulating mountains, the lush dense bamboo forest, everything is familiar.
"Well, someone?"
Zhou Ling's vigilant soul power told him that there were two people's breaths hidden nearby.
He immediately motioned to Shi Yao not to make a sound, and once again used his soul power to lock on to the other party's precise location.
"I've found you! Two four-star samurai dared to come and make a mistake. Zhou Ling sneered.
"It's too sealed!"
When they were very close, Zhou Ling directly used this martial art to temporarily seal their Force power, and before they could react, they were swept up by Zhou Ling's Force force.
"Who are you, dare to peep into my Zhou family?"
Zhou Ling put the heavy Chixiao Giant Sword on the necks of the two and asked.
"Childe spares his life! We are also at the mercy of others. ”
The two of them were already at a loss when they suddenly lost their Force, but when they saw Zhou Ling holding a red giant sword across his neck, he knelt on the ground in fright and begged for mercy.
"Don't you say it yet?"
Zhou Ling didn't realize that he had used a little force in his hand, the red light of the Chixiao Sword flickered and the sword aura was overwhelming, and the Force oppression of the seven-star warrior made the two of them break out in a cold sweat.
"Presumably you are the young master of the Zhou family! We don't say that you should also know, it was the Martial King who sent the two of us, but we definitely didn't do anything to hurt your family, and we ask the young master to let it go." ”
The monkey-looking man looked at the other man and begged for mercy.
"What does he want you to do?"
"King Wu asked us to keep an eye on your father, keep track of his whereabouts, and then follow his orders. Another man, seeing that the matter had come to this point, also spoke out in a consolidated manner.
"He's going to kill my father?" Zhou Ling's eyes burst out with a cold light.
"He didn't say ......"
The two of them were so frightened by Zhou Ling's actions that they were afraid that they would be killed.
Zhou Ling didn't ask any more, but the Chixiao Sword began to tremble, the red and purple brilliance became more and more vivid, and the red sword body made the two of them feel very depressed, and their faces were covered with beads of sweat the size of beans.
"Red Flame!"
With Zhou Ling's soft drink, the Chixiao Sword was on the spot, and the red and purple flames suddenly burst into flames on the spot, and the huge Chixiao flames and force fluctuations shook the two of them dozens of feet away, and the clothes on their bodies were all set on point.
"I won't kill you today, go back and tell Zeng Yuecheng, if he dares to harm my Zhou family again, I, Zhou Ling, will definitely chop Zeng Tai with my own hands!"
Looking at the two people who were holding their heads and scurrying, Zhou Ling's voice wrapped in the Force was clearly transmitted behind them, only to see the two of them rolling on the ground with fire, and they couldn't stop wailing for a while.
