In the middle of the night, there was a sudden knock on the door of Yisong Garden.

Lin Yan got up and went to open the door after the first door. The Lin family has been peaceful for a hundred years, and there has never been a knock on the door in the middle of the night.

The door opened, and a disciple of the Lin clan gave a salute outside the door, handed a letter to Lin Yan, and said softly: "Second son, the Zeng sect master of the Zeng clan in Yuzhou sent someone to send it overnight, saying that it must be delivered to the second son. ”

Lin Yan nodded, and the disciple bowed and left.

Lin Yan returned to the room with the letter, Wen Xuan lit the lamp in a daze, and asked, "Lin Yan, who is it, it's the middle of the night." ”

Lin Yan said: "You woke up, the Zeng clan of Yuzhou sent someone to send it overnight." ”

After hearing this, Wen Xuan sobered up a lot, "Zeng's Sect Master, open it and take a look!"

Lin Yan sat on the side, opened the letter, and read it with Wen Xuan.

"There are strange beasts today, now in the downtown area, hoping to help. Wen Xuan read out part of the letter, "Lin Yan, alien beasts, I haven't destroyed alien beasts for thousands of years, let's leave overnight, we can't let alien beasts hurt people." ”

Lin Yan nodded, "Get dressed." ”

Wen Xuan found that he was only wearing a middle coat and his hair was scattered, so he smiled and went back to the back room to dress and wear a crown. After Wen Xuan cleaned up and Lin Yan was ready to go, Lin Yan drew a shifting array on the spot in the courtyard, and the two jumped in together.

When he fell out of the formation, Wen Xuan's feet did not step on it steadily and fell. Lin Yan grabbed him. Wen Xuan smiled embarrassedly, "Where is this, how is it uneven." At a glance, it turned out to be the door of the Yuzhou Zeng family, Wen Xuan stepped on the steps, stepped on the air, and then fell.

Zeng's door was extremely quiet in the night, and even the moonlight became dazzling.

The two of them walked all the way from the door to the hall, and there was no one in them.

Lin Yan drew his sword, and Wen Xuan also took the iron sword in his hand. The two cautiously moved on.

At this time, a figure rushed in the shadows, and Wen Xuan's iron sword was about to be unsheathed, but it was pressed by Lin Yan, and the two of them dodged and dodged the attacking move. It was a child of nine or ten years old, with a few strands of hair scattered aside, eyes as big as brass bells, and a wooden stick in his hand, watching them warily.

Wen Xuan said: "Child, where is your Sect Master Zeng? This is the second son of Lin, we are here to help." ”

Hearing the words "Second Master Lin", the child was stunned for a moment, quickly put down the wooden stick, and saluted Lin Yan, "Second Master Lin, Sect Master Zeng asked me to wait for you here." ”

Lin Yan returned the salute and said, "Tell me more." ”

The fortitude and composure on the child's face were particularly clear in the moonlight. "Early this morning, someone came to report that a monster twice as big as a buffalo appeared on the bank of Yushui, not only not afraid of people, but also hurting and killing people. Sect Master Zeng got the letter and went to hunt and kill the strange beast, but found that the strange beast had spiritual power and was above Sect Master Zeng. Therefore, Sect Master Zeng mobilized all the Zeng monks to drive the strange beast to Yushan Shaoren with the combined force of the flames infused with spiritual power, and ordered me to wait for Lin Er Gongzi and Wen Gongzi here. ”

Lin Yan nodded. Wen Xuan said: "Has there ever been a strange beast in Yuzhou?"

"Nope. The kid affirmed.

"Where is Sect Master Zeng now?" Lin Yan asked.

"I'll take you there. The boy picked up the stick again and went out.

Wen Xuan touched his nose and said as he walked with Lin Yan: "Lin Yan, why do I think this is strange." There have never been any strange beasts in Yuzhou, where did the strange beasts with spiritual power come out?"

Lin Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Let's talk about it when we see it." “

The three of them traveled very fast, and they walked more and more into the deep mountains and valleys, and the sky was slightly dark at this time, and the sky was as bright as it was bright.

The boy took Wen Xuan and Lin Yan all the way to a huge valley, where the flames were blazing, and the Zeng monks with red hair bands on their foreheads were standing scattered with torches.

"Sect Master!" the child's voice was very loud.

Zeng Huaipu saw Lin Yan and Wen Xuan, and hurriedly ran over and gave a salute, "I was tired that Lin Ergongzi and Wen Gongzi came overnight, but it was really that the spiritual power of this strange beast was not under me, so I asked for help from the two sons." ”

Lin Yan nodded. Wen Xuan said: "Sect Master Zeng doesn't have to be polite. What about the beasts?"

Zeng Huaizeng pointed to the side of the fire and said, "We poured spiritual power into the fire and set up a barrier here, and the strange beast could not come over, so it could only hover in the valley." But my generation's spiritual power is limited, and at most it will burn for another hour, and then it will be exhausted. ”

Wen Xuan looked at it, but didn't find the strange beast. Then he said to Zeng Huaipu: "You put out the torch, burn the spiritual power like this, when will you be able to cultivate it back." ”

Zeng Huaipu was overjoyed and ordered the child to inform everyone to extinguish the torch, and everyone was also relieved.

Wen Xuan waved his hand again, "You all go back, leave it to us here." ”

Zeng Huaipu hesitated for a moment, "Do you need my help?"

Wen Xuan shook his head and prepared to walk deeper into the valley.

Zeng Huaipu beckoned everyone to leave, and everyone breathed a long sigh of relief. Only the child who led the way just now followed Wen Xuan one step by one, "I'm not leaving, I'll kill the strange beast with you." ”

Wen Xuan smiled, "Child, you're too young, go back." I'll talk about it when I'm older. ”

The child stubbornly said, "No, I'm not young, I want to be with you!"

Zeng Huaipu hurriedly pulled the child and said, "This is my adopted child, and his personality is a little stubborn, so don't be surprised by the two sons." ”

Wen Xuan looked at the kid and said jokingly: "Are you sure you want to go with us?

The child's clear gaze met Wen Xuan, "I'm not afraid! That strange beast hurts people, and it must be eliminated today!"

Wen Xuan smiled and said to Zeng Huaipu: "Since he has made up his mind, let him follow us, and I will ensure his safety." ”

Zeng Huaipu looked at Wen Xuan, then at the child, gave a salute and left.

"What's your name?" Wen Xuan asked, walking towards the depths of the valley with the child, while Lin Yan had already walked in the front and explored the way.

"My name is Ash. Wen Xuan couldn't help but laugh, "What?

"Yes, I was adopted by the sect master since I was a child, and said that I was found out from the ashes, so I was called ashes. Wen Xuan stopped, touched the child's head, and said in a soft voice, "For a while, you will follow behind me, don't run around." The beast can't hurt you. ”

Lin Yan stopped in front of him and called in a low voice, "Wen Xuan." ”

Wen Xuan hid the child behind him and walked over quickly. And he drew the iron sword from his waist and took it in his hand.

Wen Xuan's arrival obviously startled the strange beast, and the strange beast lying in the bushes stood up.

Through the faint morning light, Wen Xuan saw the strange beast clearly, "Lin Yan, it's a cave." ”

"Kiln?" Lin Yan frowned.

"Yes, the kiln is also an ancient beast, but this one has survived to the present for some reason. Wen Xuandao.

The furnace ash poked his head out from behind Wen Xuan, and when he saw the strange beast carefully, he couldn't help but grasp the hem of Wen Xuan's clothes. The slender body was much larger than that of a cow, naked, human-faced, horse-footed, and his eyes showed a fierce light, especially when he looked at Wen Xuan.
