Yan Ling sat sideways on the sloping stage, with a smile on her face. The ghost lady paused for a moment, then continued to speed up. Before he could get far, he heard the stage 'rumble' down, followed by the collapse of the surrounding wooden buildings.

The ghost lady's eyes were red and tears rained down, but she still didn't look back. Perhaps, she didn't want to see Yan Ling's tragic condition. She hasn't cried for many years, she hasn't felt the warmth of family affection, even if she has a ghost baby as a companion, but it is not human after all. called Yan Ling the little sister at the beginning, but it was just to cope with Qiao Youqing's jokes, and Yan Ling's life changed dramatically because of her.

Facing this 'thief' ghost lady again, Yan Ling did not choose to continue to hate. For a kind person, God may not give special care, but she will win the sincere respect of others, and even after death, she will be deeply remembered.

Kindness is always nobler than viciousness. The chivalrous and benevolent Qiao Youqing is, the honest and pure Yan Ling is, perhaps because of the reality compelled the ghost lady who went astray.

When Qiao You came to his senses, they were already in the gathering place of the townspeople who had been transferred. He felt tired, mentally weakened, and even his vision was blurry. This is a makeshift shack, Zhao Huiyi is also injured, and is resting on the wooden bed on the other side, Yuexiu takes care of her while chattering with her.

Zhao Huiyi paid attention to Qiao Youqing's situation from time to time, and when he saw Qiao Youqing open his eyelids and roll his eyes to look around, he almost jumped up with joy. Yuexiu hurriedly helped her sit up, Qiao Youqing tried to get up, and with just a slight movement, she felt terrible pain all over her body, from the inside out.

Zhao Huiyi immediately ordered Yuexiu to call someone, and she came to Qiao Youqing's side by herself, her eyes were red, and she almost cried again. Qiao Youqing smiled slightly, took her hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm ...... How long have you been in a coma? ”

Zhao Huiyi said with red eyes: "It's been two days, so people don't have to worry about it......"

Qiao Youqing said, "Give me a hand and let me sit up." ”

Qiao Youqing's head was dizzy, and he felt a thousand pounds of weight on his head, so he asked Zhao Huiyi: "Do you have anything to eat?" I'm so hungry! ”

Zhao Huiyi hurriedly brought over a bowl of gruel, suddenly thought of something again, and said, "I'll go serve another bowl!" ”

Qiao Youqing hurriedly said, "Don't be so troublesome. ”

"But ......"

Qiao Youqing said again: "It's really okay! ”

Zhao Huiyi's cheeks were flushed, she stirred a few times with a spoon, scooped up a spoonful and sent it to Qiao Youqing, after Qiao Youqing took a sip, the corners of his mouth were full of smiles. Originally, this porridge was served to Zhao Huiyi by Yuexiu, but after Zhao Huiyi drank two sips, she really had no appetite, so she put it aside.

Not long after, Yuexiu led Yu Cuiwei and Yuan Jie to walk in from outside.

The core members of the five major families were almost wiped out, and Wanjia Wharf completely fell, including the gang headquarters. The mayor of the Yu family withdrew early, but there was nothing to do. Zhao Xiang of the Zhao family led several Zhao family members and insisted on staying to make a difference, but none of them came back. As for the old man of the Wang family who left by boat, it is said that after encountering the black-clothed man who attacked Wanjia Wharf on the waterway, all his companions sank to the bottom of the river. Part of the armed forces left by the Fan family were also wiped out in the bloody battle.

Not to mention the rest of the townspeople who were reluctant to evacuate, very few escaped, and even if they were lucky enough to escape, they were extremely mentally abnormal because they saw unclean things.

After Qiao Youqing learned that Zhao Xiang was also killed, he lamented with regret, and Zhao Huiyi and Yuexiu burst into tears. Yuan Jie's heart is also very sad, for Yuan Jie, Zhao Xiang is his great benefactor.

At the beginning, Yu Cuiwei learned of Zhao Xiang's bad news, and after crying, she became stupid and stunned, and it seemed that her spirit was stimulated a lot.

When he asked about what happened, Yuan Jie said: "Later, many houses and buildings collapsed, and there were ghosts and fires everywhere, and ghosts cried and howled. On the side of Guanma Road, there was another skirmish, and the three strange people invited by the Qing soldiers fled by themselves, so the Qing soldiers were forced into the mountains and did not know where to go. ”

Qiao Youqing remembered what happened before he fainted, and asked, "What about the ghost lady and the girl who sang?" ”

Yuan Jie said: "After the ghost lady handed you over to us, she found a horse and left, saying that she asked a master to help. He came back early the next morning, and brought back four high-ranking people, according to the high-ranking people, they were entangled in some minor troubles on the way, so they came a little late. I haven't seen Miss Yan singing, maybe she has left by herself......"

Speaking of this, Yuan Jie touched the brocade bag on his waist, and after looking at the few people next to him, he stopped his movements and continued: "After several masters saw the tragic situation in the ancient town, they were so angry that they almost lost control of their emotions...... They fought a great battle with the remaining lama monks, and the lama master was eaten back by the incomplete formation, resulting in injuries. In a fierce battle with several hermit masters, he was killed by several masters. The rest, except for a younger lama who escaped, were all ambushed, and only two of the several masters were slightly injured. ”

It seems that there are indeed many hidden masters in this world, and they have seen the power of the lama master at that time, and they can collapse half of the building with an understatement. Although he was slightly injured, it should not be a problem to escape, but he was killed.

"What happened next?" Qiao Youqing asked.

"Later, the four masters sealed the formation, but they didn't find the source of the modified feng shui pattern...... They say that their seal can keep the ancient town safe for a hundred years, unless the source is found and rectified. They also expressed their willingness to accept a disciple to follow them to practice the way of public opinion and the way of punishing evil and subduing demons, so that they could stay in the ancient town for a long time. Originally, I ......," said Yuan Jie and looked sideways at the few people beside him.

Qiao Youqing immediately understood what he meant, Zhao Xiang donated his life, Yu Cuiwei was deeply shocked, the Zhao family needed his care now, and he couldn't leave. On the other hand, she must not be able to give up Yuexiu, she grew up in the Zhao family since she was a child, and the Zhao family is her home, and she will definitely not leave.

The ghost lady said that she was willing to follow them to practice, and then return to the ancient town to teach the descendants of the Zhao family. I listened to one of the masters talking to her and she said, "Are you finally willing to let go of your obsession?" When you turned around, what did you say, 'Evil thoughts are difficult to correct, but righteous thoughts are not evil'. The ghost lady said, it turns out that what she said is not wrong, isn't the devil this time a decent person? In the end, when they left, the ghost lady also followed them to practice. ”

The choice of the ghost lady can be regarded as good news. Yuan Jie finally waited for the opportunity when everyone was gone, and after struggling for a while, he asked, "How do you feel about your physical condition?" ”

Qiao Youqing smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, it's not good, it's already a miracle to be alive." ”

Yuan Jie said: "Several masters are proficient in medical skills, and they have helped you check when you were in a coma, and he also said the same thing!" Merely...... He also said in private......"

Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, Qiao Youqing guessed that it was definitely not good news, and he was still mentally prepared for this. So he said: "Please say it's okay, life and death are reincarnated, but the destiny returns!" ”

Yuan Jie sighed and said, "He said that your longevity is approaching, and you only have a few days to ......."

Qiao Youqing chuckled in his heart, even if he had expected it, he could not avoid instinctively fearing death, which was something hidden deep in the bones of human beings. After a long time, he exhaled a breath of turbidity and said with a calm face: "Is there a few more days?" Enough is enough! ”

Yuan Jie handed him a small bag and said, "This is left by the master, he said that he can restore your mobility in the remaining time, which is similar to the state of 'returning to the light'......"

Qiao Youqing took the bag, said 'thank you', and opened it to see that it was a ball wrapped in a wax shell. Pinching open the shell, inside was a black pill the size of a dragon's eye, he asked Yuan Jie to pour a bowl of water, and immediately took the pill.

After Yuan Jie left, Qiao Youqing lay quietly and waited for the effect of the medicine to melt. He first felt that his body was cold, whether it was muscles, muscles and bones, or internal organs, he gradually began to numb. Once he was numb, of course, he didn't feel pain, but this numbness also made him unable to move even if he wanted to.

He clearly heard the footsteps of someone walking in from outside, followed by another voice, which should be Zhao Huiyi and Yuexiu. Yuexiu seemed to be about to speak, but Zhao Huiyi gently stopped her, probably seeing Qiao Youqing's quiet motionlessness, thinking that he was asleep.

After a while, the cold feeling slowly disappeared, a stream of heat spread from the inside out, and the heart resumed its powerful beating as before. The heat flow flowed through all corners of the body with the blood, from cold to hot, from static to moving, because of the conditioned reflex of the nervous system, Qiao Youqing involuntarily trembled a little.

This cold and hot impact made Qiao Youqing suddenly sober up a lot.

Seeing Qiao Youqing's strange appearance, Zhao Huiyi was startled, and hurriedly came over to check, first touched her forehead, and felt so hot. Yuexiu also reached out and touched it, and hurriedly ran out to ask Yuan Jie for help, whenever something happened, Yuexiu seemed to be the first to arrive at Yuan Jie, maybe at this time in her heart, Yuan Jie was her backbone. Especially now, the Zhao family has no male protagonist.

Zhao Huiyi took the handkerchief and kept helping Qiao Youqing wipe the sweat, while touching him east and west, completely at a loss. When the body regains momentum, the organs in the body naturally react. After Zhao Huiyi inadvertently touched a certain 'tent', her little face turned crimson, and she quickly retracted like an electric shock, her chest was tense and undulating, and her heart was pounding like a muffled drum.

Qiao Youqing was also embarrassed, and in order to avoid further embarrassment, he had to pretend that he hadn't woken up yet. After calming down for a while, Zhao Huiyi squinted and peeked at Qiao Youqing, and saw that he closed his eyes tightly and did not move, so she tentatively touched Qiao Youqing again. She blushed and continued to gently wipe a cold sweat for Qiao Youqing, unintentionally touching the sensitive itchy flesh, Qiao Youqing really couldn't pretend to be it.

He squinted his eyes and peeked at Zhao Huiyi's embarrassment, grabbed her wrist, and caused her to scream. Qiao Youqing only pulled slightly, and Zhao Huiyi pounced on Qiao Youqing defenselessly.
