"We are outcasts. ”

Zhong Yao's eyes were red, she endured the sourness in her heart, and tried her best to say in a gentle tone, but the trembling and slight sobbing in her body made people feel her mood.

"The people in Nancheng, sister, you should know that it is a place where cultivators are everywhere, even the ordinary people on the periphery, they also have spiritual veins in their bodies, that is, they actually have the opportunity to become cultivators. Zhong Yao recalled the previous scenes, looked at An Sheng, and showed a pleading look in his eyes, "I want to go back, I don't want to stay here anymore......"

"I want to go back to the city......"

"Then you have to explain the situation to me first. An Sheng patted Zhong Yao's back, comforting softly, angry and funny, this little girl said why she jumped out of such a sentence coldly and then began to cry.

"The people who live in the southern city all have spiritual veins in their bodies, but we don't have any spiritual veins in our bodies, so we can't practice and become cultivators, so we are expelled by those people in the city. Zhong Xiao sighed, remembering those past events that he didn't want to look back on, when he was only a few years old, but the ugly faces of those people were deeply imprinted in his heart and could not be forgotten.

"We are actually the children of the nobility living in Zhongwei, and when we were young, we were also envied by those people in the periphery, but in the subsequent spiritual vein test, we were screened out, and those with spiritual veins continued to stay in Zhongwei to practice and become cultivators, while those without spiritual veins were exiled from this grassland. ”

"And we can't leave here, they send people to check on them regularly, and we all have the mark they left on our bodies, and the whole tribe is actually a screening of exiles. Zhong Xiao said calmly, unbuttoned the clothes on his body, turned around, his fists clenched, his nails sunk into his palms, and a trace of blood flowed out.

An Sheng looked over, under the light of the fire, the hideous scar on Zhong Xiao's back looked so terrifying, a big circle was drawn on the sturdy back, almost cut to the ribs, and in the circle, there was also a special symbol, like a bronze bell.

"It's the imprint of those people, and the more we go away, the more intense and painful we feel in our bodies. Zhong Xiao seemed to be narrating an ordinary trivial matter, his expression was indifferent, but the resentment in his eyes was turbulent.

"It's been more than ten years. An Sheng stood up, stepped forward, stroked the hideous scar, and looked at it carefully.

"Well, I was about five or six years old at the time, and after checking that there were no spiritual veins, I dragged our backs to the side with a sharp blade and a hot soldering iron. Zhong Xiao smiled, his voice became a little hoarse, and continued: "At that time, we were all so scared, standing in line there, watching one partner after another either smile after success and then be dragged to the inner courtyard, or there is no spiritual vein, being pulled aside to start this cruel torture, many people have died when they are branded with this mark, that day, the whole courtyard is full of bloody flesh and blood, that scene I really can't forget for the rest of my life." ”

"Then, were those friends also killed by the Inhumans?" An Sheng carefully looked at the hideous scar, and with a thought, an illusory and vague dim brilliance slowly drifted past.

"Almost, if our family was in the same period, there would only be four of us left, and the others would have been exiled from another period. We are grazing here, praying every day that we can live one more day, and we don't want to let the tribe die again, and today when I saw the birds circling, I felt like I had fallen into the bottomless abyss, fortunately, Yao was fine. ”

Zhong Xiao said with a smile, but the pain in that tone was really irrepressible, looking at Zhong Yao's eyes full of tenderness as an elder brother, but also a little reproachful.

"I'm sorry. Zhong Yao said timidly, wrapping her hands around herself.

"It hurts a little, bear with me. An Sheng patted Zhong Xiao's back and said.

"Hmm, what's the ......" Zhong Xiao was confused when he heard An Sheng's words, and was about to turn his head, but An Sheng's palm pressed his head and broke it back, and then there was a sharp pain in his back, as if the whole thing was torn apart, "Ah!"

Zhong Xiao screamed miserably, and the other two also reacted at this time, looking at the scene in front of them and couldn't help but be stunned, they didn't know what to do for a while.

An Sheng's palm penetrated into Zhong Xiao's back at this time, blood splashed, Zhong Xiao wanted to fall down, but he was really held down stiffly, unable to move for half a minute, even foaming at the mouth and rolling his eyes.

"Sister, what are you doing?" Zhong Yao looked at An Sheng and asked suspiciously, wanting to step forward and pull her arm, but was indeed glared at by An Sheng, not knowing what to do.

"What is a big man's chirping?" An Sheng saw Zhong Xiao constantly screaming, frowned, and slapped him on the forehead, Zhong Xiao immediately fell to the ground and passed out.

An Sheng's palm kept swinging in his back, as if he was groping for something, and three or four blood holes had been opened in his back, which was shocking.

"Really... Is that okay?"

Zhong Miao looked at Zhong Xiaohe, who was in a coma, and An Sheng, who was like a brutal butcher, said in a trembling voice, looking at Zhong Yao, who was sitting stunned on the side, who showed an expression of "how do I know", but still said in an extremely uncertain tone: "It should be... It's okay......"

His brother shouldn't be killed.

Just as the two looked at each other, anxious in their hearts, a "pop" sound came, and the two of them looked at the sound, and it was behind Zhong Xiao that there was a broken piece of flesh, clumped together, slowly squirming.

An Sheng shook his hand, "tsk", walked over, wiped the dirt on his hands with Zhong Yao's clothes, and said lightly: "Go get some water and wake up your brother." ”

"Oh, oh......"

Zhong Yao was stunned when he heard this, but then he quickly stood up, carried a wooden barrel in the corner of the room, and immediately threw the cold water inside on Zhong Xiao's body.

"Ahem......"

After coughing a few times in succession, Zhong Xiao slowly opened his eyes, looked at the things in front of him in confusion, and suddenly gasped from the sharp pain in his back.

"Brother, are you okay? Zhong Yao looked at Zhong Xiao with a painful expression and asked.

"It's fine. Zhong Xiao waved his hand, signaling his sister not to worry, gritting his teeth and holding on to the sharp pain.

"Bear with me a little longer. An Sheng walked over with a smile, Zhong Xiao's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his body involuntarily retreated, but he was suddenly restrained by an inexplicable force, and he couldn't move for half a minute again, watching the white palm stretch out to him, and his heart was extremely panicked.

I closed my eyes, but the pain I was thinking about did not appear, but a warm stream flowed from my forehead to all parts of my body like a thin stream, moisturizing the skin and muscles everywhere.

"Is this a supernatural power?" Zhong Yao was stunned by the scene in front of him for a while, and looked at it blankly, Zhong Miao also looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief at this time.

I saw that strange veins appeared on An Sheng's arm, runes flowed on it, starlight glowed out little by little, and a psychedelic faint colorful mist slowly swirled around Zhong Xiao's body, burrowing into the pores everywhere, and those few hideous blood holes were rapidly closing at a speed visible to the naked eye, counting the time, it was as good as ever.

An Sheng withdrew his arm, the starry dimming dissipated, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and slowly opened the eyes that were originally smart, but at this time they were a little tired.

Zhong Xiao also came back to his senses with that wonderful feeling, looked at his body in disbelief, stroked his back, the place where the blood holes were originally broken was completely healed at this time, and those hideous slightly raised scars Although they did not completely dissipate, they were also concave a lot, and the marks were no longer as obvious as before.

"What the hell is this ......"

Zhong Xiao looked at An Sheng's outstretched hand, holding a wriggling piece of flesh in the white palm, as if it had life.

"I don't know, but that's what keeps you bound. An Sheng's mind moved, the piece of meat slowly floated up and fell in the air, with a slight wave of his palm, a thin beam of dim light like silk thread drilled out of the piece of flesh, and the beams of light spiraled together, forming a smooth mirror about three inches long, and slowly emerged such a scene - on a stone carved altar, there was a statue of a child carved out of wood, holding a bronze bell in the child's arms, and the bronze bell was engraved with a delicate word "Xiao".

"It's... This is a childlike statue. ”

Zhong Xiao looked at the statue in front of him and said, shaking his head constantly, "It turns out... I see. ”

"Do you know what's going on?" An Sheng asked out loud when he saw Zhong Xiao showing a look of finally understanding.

Zhong Xiao looked gloomy, showing a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and said hoarsely: "No wonder my dear parents will 'have an accident' at that time, it turns out that I really blamed that little brother all along." ”

The light mirror in mid-air shattered, and the piece of meat slowly fell again, An Sheng caught it, and was about to ask questions, but was interrupted by a loud noise.

The wooden door was slammed open, and the four of them looked at it, Zhong Lin leaned against the door, panting heavily, and his whole body was wet with sweat.

"What's wrong?Is something wrong?" Zhong Miao noticed Zhong Lin's strange appearance and hurriedly asked.

Zhong Lin covered his chest, calmed down his breath, looked at the four of them, and said intermittently:

"Southside... Those people... It's coming!"
