Chapter 18: The Silent Village

"It's ......"

There was a hint of disbelief on Xiao Nan's face, he had already vaguely guessed something.

"Yes, it's yours, and it was with you when I met you in the snow that day. It's just because of my selfishness...... This is the only time the old man has lied to you. Li Tianlan rarely showed shame, and his already aging face looked even older.

Chao Xiaonan smiled: "Who is not selfish? Old man, you told us that there are no absolutely good people in this world, not to mention that I worshipped you as a teacher at the beginning, why was I not selfish?"

"The jade pendant is the thing of the imperial capital Qingshi Lane, and it is still only available to the direct family, as for how to do it, it is your own business. Li Tianlan is actually very relieved of Chao Xiaonan, although this kid may not be in tune on weekdays, but he is very calm when he really does things, and he has never let him worry too much.

"There are also these three flying swords, named Butterfly Flower, Bird Branch, and Fengwu, the three swords have been with the old man for many years, and they are also a little famous on the mainland, so you can explore the method of manipulation yourself. But what the old man wants to tell you is that even if you can't enter the martial arts, as the old man's disciple, you can also kill people in the red dust and support yourself in the white blade!" Li Tianlan suddenly became full of spirit, exuding an indescribable majesty.

At this moment, Chao Xiaonan seemed to see Li Tianlan when he came to rescue him, and Li Tianlan who swung out the sword that cut off the heaven and earth.

"You can't open the third box now, so you don't have to work in vain, and you'll be able to see it when it's time to be opened. ”

Li Tianlan's voice came again, and his expression was a little complicated.

"The old man won't say much, otherwise he will be scolded by you again. ”

Chao Xiaonan looked at the image that gradually dissipated in front of him, he didn't know what to do, this was just an image projected in advance, and Li Tianlan naturally couldn't hear what he said.

"By the way, if you encounter trouble that can't be solved in the future, you can report the name of the ghost saint, although the old man has not been out of the rivers and lakes for many years, but there should still be people on the rivers and lakes who remember the old man's ......"

Li Tianlan said suddenly, as if there were a lot of babbling words that had not yet been finished. The image gradually dissipated into stars, and Li Tianlan's breath could no longer be felt on the jade slip.

Chao Xiaonan stood up, and there was no emotion in his eyes.

"Alright, old man, I've listened to you talk for so long, and I should do my own thing. ”

Chao Xiaonan put the two wooden boxes left by Li Tianlan back into the storage ring, and Chao Xiaonan took out the third wooden box, obviously this wooden box was indeed different from the previous two.

"Hey, if you tell me not to open it, I won't open it?" Chao Xiaonan suddenly screamed, and then he got up with the third wooden box.

After a while, Chao Xiaonan sat on the ground sweating profusely, he tried the most primitive method - brute force, but this thing that seemed to be a wooden box was actually extremely hard, and I don't know what material it was. He had also tried his mental powers, but he was undoubtedly playing the piano to the cow.

"Okay, the road is one foot high, the magic is one foot high, I'm convinced. Chao Xiao Nan gasped, and then put the box into the storage ring.

"It's dawn, it's time to find Mu Chen. "Chao Xiaonan is really anxious to find Mu Chen at this time, the old man is gone, but the three of them are still there!

Chao Xiao Nan woke up Meng Qingwu, who was asleep in another wooden house, and the two walked down Nanshan together. On the way, Xiao Nan went to look for the mysterious forest, but unexpectedly found nothing.

A quarter of an hour later, Chao Xiaonan and Mengqingwu appeared at the foot of Nanshan.

Chao Xiao Nan raised his head and looked at the towering Nanshan Mountain.

"Girl, I'm going to leave the village, what about you?" Chao Xiaonan said suddenly, obviously to the girl beside him.

"Then where are you going?" Meng Qingwu raised her head and looked at Chao Xiaonan with big eyes.

"Go here. Chao Xiaonan raised his hand, and a sandalwood jade pendant appeared in his hand, which was the jade pendant engraved with the three words Chao Xiaonan on it.

Yes, Chao Xiaonan is preparing to go to the imperial capital, he knows very well that if he wants to gain a foothold in this world, and if he wants to rescue Li Tianlan from Moyun Valley, he must have his own backing, and the imperial capital Chaojia may be a good choice.

In fact, there is another reason, because Chao Xiaonan's soul came from 10,000 years ago, and he always felt that his consciousness and this body had no run-in, and the source of solving this problem was naturally the place where this body lived before. Or...... Will there be anyone in the imperial capital who can know the beginning and end of 10,000 years ago?

"Oh~ Then I'm going to a place too. Meng Qingwu said with a smile.

"Hmm, where do you want to go!" Chao Xiaonan sighed a little angry.

"your heart. The girl couldn't help but laugh.

"Wow, you're disgusting......" Chao Nan pushed Mengqingwu's head away in disgust, then turned around and walked towards the village.

Mengqing followed Chao Xiaonan like a rabbit, and the two kept laughing.

Behind the two of them is the towering Nanshan, which is rare today without the white clouds, and looks like a giant sword that pierces Xiaohan.

Chao Xiaonan and the two did not find Mu Chen's existence after arriving at the courtyard where they lived, and then the two headed towards the place where the villagers gathered, after all, they had lived together for many years, and they naturally needed to say goodbye before leaving.

Chao Xiaonan carried Mengqing Wu on his back, after all, the little girl was just an ordinary person who had not practiced, and it had taken a lot of effort to go up the mountain from the south.

Meng Qingwu buried her head on Chao Xiaonan's back, she still had a big sword on her back, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in the girl's big eyes, because she was forcibly carried by Chao Xiaonan, and she also had to carry this ugly big sword...... Thankfully, the sword wasn't as heavy as it looked.

Suddenly, Mengqing Wu on his back raised his head a little dazedly, because Chao Xiaonan suddenly stopped. After the little head looked around, she also realized that something was wrong, and her hands wrapped her arms around Chao Xiaonan's neck slightly.

Chao Xiaonan patted Mengqingwu's little hand to signal her not to be afraid, and then looked at the village not far away, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

There is only one reason for the stop.

Quiet!

Deathly silence!

This is definitely not what this lively village was originally looking like.

Spiritual power covered the surroundings and carefully guarded the surroundings, Chao Xiaonan guessed something, but he didn't want to believe it.

"The old man can't let these villagers live and die regardless of it, he must have left a back hand or transferred the villagers to other places, yes, it must be like this, it has been transferred to other places, the spirit array laid by the old man can make me appear on the top of Nanshan in an instant, so naturally I can transfer the villagers......"

Chao Xiaonan kept chattering with a fluke tone.

Walking into the village, there was still no sound in the entire village, and he couldn't even feel a trace of anger in Chao Xiaonan's spiritual perception.

Chao Xiaonan's fists were clenched, and his body trembled a little due to the excessive force.

Meng Qingwu's little hand on his back touched Chao Xiaonan's cheek, and the little face looked at him with some concern, turned back and smiled at Xiao Nan, signaling that he was fine.

Chao Xiaonan was very sober at the moment, almost coldly sober, and for a moment he even felt that he had become Chao Xiaonan who cultivated ruthless swordsmanship in his previous life, but the warmth from the girl on his back was like a stream of heat, pulling him back from the edge.

In Chao Xiaonan's spiritual perception, there was no longer a living creature in the entire small village, and all the villagers were lifeless and fell into their homes one by one.

The young man who looked like a scholar was lying on the desk with blood, and the blood stained his gray robe bright red;

Sun Erniang's young daughter's delicate face was lying on the bed without a trace of blood, and there were still undried blood stains on the corners of her mouth;

Second Uncle Li fell beside his wife and daughter with angry eyes, he still held the dark sledgehammer in his hand, maybe he had found the enemy and wanted to protect his wife and daughter desperately, but the result was only this dark sledgehammer stained with the blood of his family of three......
