The sunset rolls in the sky, and the afterglow spills into the snow.

The hot meal at home has been served.

Lin Zhi stood in front of the door and wandered uneasily, his gray hair hanging down his forehead, and his cloudy eyes looked at Merlin in the distance from time to time.

Gradually, two figures appeared, it was Qi Xianglin's grandson.

She hurriedly greeted her and said anxiously: "What's the matter, I'm only coming back now!" ”

Looking at the anxious appearance of the old woman, Qi Xianglin smiled a little in his eyes, helped his white beard, and quipped: "Hahaha, old woman, seeing that you are in a hurry, I am afraid that we will get lost." There are a lot of mountain ginseng in the area of Qinhe Bay in the mountain, and I forgot the time after picking more. ”

Lin Zhi was disgusted: "It's really not worry-free!" ”

"Hahahaha~" Qi Xianglin laughed heartily, grabbed his wife's hand, his eyes were full of love, and Qi Yue on the side saw this, and his face was also happy. Crossing into this other world, without the intrigue of the family in the previous life, it is not a kind of happiness to be by the side of grandparents.

Lin Zhi smiled and lowered his head, saw a fluffy thing in his granddaughter's arms, and wondered: "Xiaoyue, why are you holding a fox in your arms?"

Sighing softly, Qi Yue touched the tip of the fox's exposed ear and said, "Grandma, I picked it up in Meilin, and it looked very pitiful when it was injured, so I brought it back." ”

Touching his granddaughter's head, Lin Zhi comforted: "Good boy, your grandfather is so powerful, he will definitely be able to save it." ”

Seeing that it was getting late, Qi Xianglin waved his hand and said, "Go into the house, I'll take a look at the fox's injury." ”

The three of them entered the side room, Qi Yue carefully put the fox on the soft couch, turned his head to look at the grandfather who was taking the medicine bag, looked worried, and shouted: "Grandpa, come and see!"

"What's the matter, this little thing doesn't work?" Qi Xianglin kept sorting out the medicine bag, and asked with his head down.

"Come and see it, you won't be able to save it later!" Lin Zhi also urged on the side.

Listening to the repeated urging of the two, he shook his head helplessly. He dropped the medicine bag and went over to open the fox wound around its neck, the blood on its body had stopped, but its wound was slowly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a light blue aura gradually appeared on its body to wrap it.

Several people were stunned, only to see Qi Xianglin's fingers condensed, silently reciting the incantation, and a yellow aura emerged from his fingertips, slowly crossing into the fox's mouth and nose.

"Grandpa!" Qi Yue exclaimed, wanting to step forward to stop it.

Qi Xianglin withdrew his hand, frowned, and said solemnly: "It's okay, I'll see if this fox is strange." ”

"So what's that?" The mother-in-law and grandson said in unison.

Brushing his beard, Qi Xianglin looked at his granddaughter with an anxious face on the side, and said helplessly: "Qi Yue, I'm afraid you've picked up a demon and come back." ”

Qi Yue was stunned, pointed at the fox, and said incredulously: "Grandpa, you said this little thing is a demon?" Demon Clan! ”

Qi Xianglin nodded.

How could he suddenly become a demon, Qi Yue was puzzled: "But grandpa, the demon clan lives in the realm of mixed yuan! It's 108,000 miles away. ”

Hearing this, the couple looked at each other, and their eyes were hesitant and complicated.

"You can tell Xiaoyue." Lin Zhi opened his mouth first, then turned around and went to the kitchen with the meal that had been cold.

Qi Xianglin sighed, took Qi Yue's hand, and motioned for her to sit down. And the fox on the side has been wrapped in blue aura, and he can't see what it looks like inside.

Pointing to the fox, he spoke:

"Look at its aura, no, it should be demonic aura. When it was injured, it had no demonic energy, and it couldn't sense that it was a demon, and now I don't know if it was the medicinal effect of your Hui Yuan Dan, it was gradually recovering. ”

Grandpa is afraid that he will look up to her pill, this time Yuan Dan does not have this ability, human beings can barely hang their lives, not to mention that it is still a demon.

With a slight look of guilt, it was in vain that Grandpa took such a fancy to her alchemy skills. He poured two cups of hot tea, handed them to his grandfather, and asked, "Grandpa, I'm afraid that my Yuan Dan is not so powerful." But it's a demon, far away in another world, why did it appear in this foggy spirit mountain? ”

Qi Xianglin was stunned when he took the teacup, took a sip, and said slowly:

"Qi Yue, do you know that this Wuling Mountain was originally called Wuling Mountain, thirteen years ago, there was no grass here, and it was in the ice polar region all day long. But it is one of the two major enchantments that protect the land of Youxing. ”

"Enchantment!" Qi Yue exclaimed.

He nodded, his expression sad, lost in memory, and said:

"yes, enchantment. The other enchantment is in the south of the land of Youxing, in the Xuankun Mountain. Thirteen years ago, Wuling Mountain was different, and the three major lock spirit stones left by the ancestors that sealed the remnant soul of the ancient fierce beast of the demon clan were used to suppress the enchantment, among which the lock spirit stone that sealed the remnant soul of Bai Jian was damaged, and the soul was lost, so far the demon clan had a gap to invade. My two sons were killed in that battle. So far, there is no one under my knees, and the white-haired man sends the black-haired man. ”

Tears glistened at the corners of his wrinkled eyes, and the hand holding the teacup trembled slightly. He was just a gray-haired old man after all.

"It was also that year that I found you in Merlin outside the Fog Spirit Mountain, maybe God had mercy on me and your grandmother and there was no one under their knees. And I have always called you the orphan of my eldest son, Qi Yu. ”

Hiding the pain of losing a child, presumably grandparents have not been as leisurely and happy as they seem on the surface over the years. Qi Yue felt bitter in her heart, got up and gently comforted: "Grandpa, granddaughter will definitely stay by your side and grandma and take good care of you." ”

Listening to his granddaughter's comfort, it didn't make him feel more comfortable, but he became worried, there are still two years left...... A wry smile appeared on the corner of Qi Xianglin's mouth, picked up the teacup, and drank it all.

"Qi Yue, grandparents understand your intentions. Sit down, and I'll continue to talk to you, grandpa. ”

Qi Yue nodded obediently and sat down.

Sorting out his thoughts, Qi Xianglin continued:

"In this land of Youxing, it is rumored that thousands of years ago it was dominated by several ancient families, but then I don't know what happened, and all the ancient families disappeared overnight. In the next few hundred years, the royal family and the four major families were great, and the royal family had great power, and since the first monarch came to the throne, he began to recruit talents, and there were countless people in the palace who were promising, whether they were cultivating, practicing martial arts or refining medicine. Ye Kuiyuan, who is known as the Holy Hand of Hundred Doctors in the rivers and lakes, is one of the three major medicine saints, and he is also under the command of the royal family. Even many cultivators in the rivers and lakes have returned to the royal family. And the royal children are also competitive, in the land of intrigue, all of them are desperately cultivating, and they are young and promising. Especially the current prince, at the age of his early twenties, he is a third-level senior sorcerer, and he has stepped into the threshold of the Dacheng realm with one foot. In addition, there are several princes led by the third prince, who are slightly inferior, and they have entered the threshold of senior magicians in their early twenties. ”

"Grandpa, is the senior sorcerer very powerful?" She couldn't cultivate, she could only concentrate on refining medicine, and she didn't know anything about cultivation and martial artists.

"Of course it's amazing, our human race cultivates, and what we practice is the Five Elements Technique contained in all things in heaven and earth. Those who have roots and bones can perceive the five elements through the center of the eyebrows. The most basic level is the junior spirit realm, who has entered the threshold of cultivation, can sense the qi of the five elements between heaven and earth, gather the law into a spirit, and basically transfigulate. Then there are the intermediate spirits, divided into five levels, who can summon spirits and transform spirits, and enter the threshold of being able to practice magic according to ancient spiritual texts. In addition, there are high-level magicians, divided into three levels, and they are used to refine and control the spirit, and then there is the realm of Dacheng, Great Power, Venerable, and Spirit Venerable. The further back you go, the more difficult it becomes, the land of your star is no longer as good as it was a thousand years ago, the five spirits are impure, and the refining is thin. Now the cultivators are not as good as those old ancestors hundreds of years ago, and there is not even a venerable one now. Qi Xianglin shook his head and sighed as he spoke, now that he is cultivating, everyone who knows is sad about his power. However, today's high priests of the royal family should not be underestimated......

"Is the cultivation environment so harsh now? The princes of the royal family are also very powerful. Qi Yue said thoughtfully.

"The royal family is big, and the four major families should not be underestimated, all of them are families inherited from their ancestors, and they have a profound heritage. The Qi family, the Feng family, the Situ family, and the Tang family have always restrained each other, but in that battle, several powerful people fell, the four elders of the Situ family, the previous head of the Feng family, the great elder of the Tang family, and countless other powerful people who cultivated great power all fell here. The people of the demon clan, the world says that they are brutal and unkind, and the method of cultivation is incomparable to us human beings after all. ”

Closing his eyes, Qi Xianglin was immersed in grief, looking at his body, which was originally strong and tough, but at this time, he was just an old man who was burdened with the pain of losing his son and was in his last years.

"I was originally the second son of the Qi family, one of the four major families, and the younger brother of the current head of the family. But in that battle, my two sons died here, and the three powerful elders of the Qi family all fell. Later, the royal family sent the high priest to unite the four major families and many powerful people in the rivers and lakes to go to the Wuhuang Ghost Clan to make a deal and summon the souls of those who sacrificed. Refining the soul and transforming the soul, and making up the lock spirit stone, this repaired the barrier of the spiritless mountain. I don't know if it was because it absorbed countless yin spirits or if God had eyes, and overnight, the spiritless mountain had vitality, and everything was clustered. Your grandmother and I couldn't afford to leave our two children, and there was nothing to worry about in the family, so we moved here to be a guardian and accompanied my two fallen sons......"

Between the words, Qi Xianglin turned his head to look at the demon fox wrapped in blue light next to him, his right palm was slightly raised, the aura in his hand was gathered, the killing intent in his eyes was long, and he said ruthlessly: "As for where this demon fox came from, there is nothing abnormal in the lock spirit stone of Wuling Mountain, only cut the grass and eradicate the roots first." ”

Qi Yue exclaimed, got up and spread his arms in front of the fox.

"Grandpa, don't, whether it's a person or a demon, there are good and bad, we can't kill innocents indiscriminately. Besides, it is injured now, and it can't set off the wind and waves. If you have bad intentions, it's not too late for you to do it again. ”

Qi Xianglin's eyes were full of grief and indignation, his right hand waved his aura to dissipate, and the hand holding the teacup suddenly contracted, shattered in an instant, and said sadly: "Silly child, do you know the evil nature of demons. After all, it's the beast nature that doesn't change! ”

Looking anxious, Qi Yue cried slightly: "Grandpa, please!" ”

It's just that she's just a child, she doesn't understand how sinister he says, and he is determined to save this demon fox, and he has nothing to do. Then he got up and walked out, with some rickety figures, looking extremely desolate, and said quietly: "That's it, that's it, let it be, if this demon fox has a bad heart, I will crush it to ashes." ”

Seeing her grandfather leave and her back lonely, Qi Yue felt guilty in her heart, she didn't want to hurt her grandfather's heart because of a demon fox, but there was always a voice in her heart calling for her, she must save this fox. Fascinated, it tugged at her thoughts......
