After walking out of the house and running away for a long distance, Zhong Min clutched his chest and stopped. There were faint signs of internal injuries, but they were no match for the pain in her soul at this moment. And so, the tears fell again. She decided not to endure it anymore, she wanted to vent to her heart's content, she had lost everything, and she didn't have to care about a little cheap dignity anymore. The growing tingling in her chest irritated her fragile nerves even more, so much so that she thought that if she died suddenly, wouldn't it be a hundred gone? She let out a few loud coughs, and a large mouthful of blood spat on the ground.

The bright red blood stung her eyes again. Zhong Min thought of the tragic situation of his master before he died, and his heart was stunned.

She can't die yet! She has the martial arts passed on to her by her master, and she has to go back to the Valley of Despair to support the overall situation. Thinking of this, Zhong Min hurriedly lifted his spirits to adjust his internal breath, and at the same time, the cold sweat of the vest trickled down.

Zhong Min looked up. The terrain of this small mountain village seems to be open, and as far as the eye can see, there are a few sparse and scattered houses, and there are always trees in the distance, thus blocking many things that would otherwise be in sight. Bai Xingpeng said to catch fish, where did he go.

After walking aimlessly for a while, I heard the sound of gurgling water, and then I saw that the sound was a winding river, and the waves of broken silver flowed all the way. Zhong Min was happy in his heart, hurriedly walked over, took a few handfuls of water and slapped it on his face. As soon as the cold water touched the skin, the pores of the whole body seemed to open up, and I felt much more comfortable.

There were a few fish swimming in the river, and Zhong Min watched from the shore, and he could almost count the scales on their bodies. She pulled a hairpin from her hair and threw it on the ground, the tip of the hairpin pointing across the river. Zhong Min could only smile and pick it up again. If Bai Xingpeng was really catching fish, she would have to go along the river to find it.

Finally she chose a direction and walked along the river. The grass on both sides grows very well, and the feet are soft on it. Zhong Min walked slowly, as if time had gone back in time, and she was taking a leisurely walk along a certain river bend in the Valley of Desperation.

There was laughter in front of her, and Zhong Min suddenly recognized Bai Xingpeng's voice from the many sound qualities, and couldn't help but feel warm and happy, but at the same time, a strange caution made her have to guard against light steps. Bai Xingpeng is not alone, and several of the voices mixed together are sweet and crisp, which means that the owner of the voice must be equally beautiful.

The river bent in front of me, and there were many people standing on the beach on the other side, all of them of youthful age, and they were making a lot of noise. Bai Xingpeng stood in the middle of everyone, surrounded by many teenagers of the same age, and faced the girl in red who was also surrounded by a group of girls with a playful face. Zhong Min hid behind the tree, and when he saw such a scene that suddenly appeared, his heart was like a heavy pestle and stayed on the spot.

Four or five girls picked up the river and poured it on Bai Xingpeng and a group of teenagers, but the result was naturally a more violent counterattack. The girl in red crossed her thin waist, pointed a finger at Bai Xingpeng and said loudly: "If you still bully me, I will go back and tell Uncle Bai immediately!" The young men on the side laughed in unison and said, "Who is afraid of whom?" Xingpeng, don't be afraid of her! ”

Bai Xingpeng interrupted loudly: "Don't make noise, what do you say I should do?" Immediately, a voice shouted in a strange way: "Kiss her!" Everyone immediately laughed and agreed. The girl in red blushed and chased after the person who sent the message, but the companion of the good thing pushed her in front of Bai Xingpeng again.

Zhong Min looked at the look of the girl in red from a distance and knew that her heart was actually overjoyed. Bai Xingpeng hugged the girl in red without pretentiousness or politeness, and lowered his head with a domineering kiss. A group of people cheered in unison, but Zhong Min was like being knocked on a dull stick, the image in front of him began to shake and blur, there was something sweet and fishy in his throat that surged upward, and the slapstick and laughter in his ears gradually faded away and finally could not be heard.

In the chaos, Bai Xingpeng suddenly saw someone on the other side of the river falling, and despite the beating of the girl in red, he hurriedly picked up his partner beside him. The girl in red grabbed his wet sleeve and pretended to be angry, "You can't go!" Bai Xingpeng shook off her hand and ran straight over there.

Jongmin had already passed out.

Bai Xingpeng was taken aback when he saw this. A group of people followed, and when they saw this situation, they couldn't help but look at me and I looked at you, and someone asked, "Xingpeng, who is this person?" Bai Xingpeng didn't care to answer him, he held Zhong Min in his arms, and called eagerly: "Xiao Min, Xiao Min, ......" Zhong Min was awakened by the water droplets dripping from his hair, slowly lifted his eyelashes, coughed lightly and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Blood fell on her front and frightened everyone around her. The girl in red walked in from the periphery, pulled Bai Xingpeng's clothes and said, "You go away, I'll help her." ”

But Zhong Min struggled out of Bai Xingpeng's arms and mercilessly pushed away the hand that the girl in red stretched out. She finally lost all hope. The scar on the mouth of the heart was once again torn into a bloody wound. And she was almost numb, and she couldn't really hear a word of what the people around her were talking about, and she couldn't even hear it slowly. The road under your feet doesn't know where it leads. All she knows is to get out of here quickly, and then find a shell that belongs only to her and put herself in, even if that shell is no longer light.

The master appeared again, and Zhong Min cried and pounced. There was pain all over her body, constantly tormenting and tormenting her, and the deepest sorrow in her heart ruthlessly destroyed what little spiritual strength she had left again and again. She's tired, tired, not strong enough to find a thousand reasons to stay alive. Life has always pushed her down from the beautiful clouds, making her bleed and unable to recover. Master, it is better for you to bear the disciple with one palm, let the disciple follow you to the Netherworld, and let the disciple go there to repay the kindness you gave to the disciple during your lifetime.

However, Master's image was blurring. He also hated, he didn't want to take Xiaomin away. Zhong Min cried and stretched out his arms in vain, finally unable to catch the shadow of his master. There was chaos in front of her, and all kinds of visions rushed towards her. Duan Jie, one of the four evildoers, was close to her face, and said with a crazy smile: "Do you think that killing me can vent the resentment in your heart? You're wrong, hahaha, you're wrong! Hahaha......"

Jongmin struggled to avoid resistance. That face changed again, and became young and good-looking. He stopped talking, but his eyes shone with ghostly fire, and as her heart stirred, a pair of cold lips pressed against her neck. The blood flowed out immediately, and it gushed more and more, and then the bright red substance began to fill the whole world. At this moment, there was a faint call from that distant place, so eager that it grabbed her soul and did not fly away. However, the viscous blood was overwhelming, and the stagnation pressure weighed down her breathlessly.

So, she still hesitated, not knowing whether to insist or give up. Although the hope of that life was small, it stimulated her physical instinct as a human being, but the future of life was so bleak that she was deeply timid......

Bai Xingpeng took Zhong Min, who was unconscious, home, and it was not clear that sweat and water were mixed together. Mr. Bai was really taken aback when he saw his son go home like this, and when he saw Zhong Min in danger. Bai Xingpeng shouted anxiously: "Dad, you are only watched, everyone is dying!" ”

Mr. Bai asked his son to put the person on the bed in the back room, and after checking Zhong Min's pulse, he said, "It doesn't matter, she just couldn't slow down her mental turmoil for a while, and her internal injuries didn't get worse." Bai Xingpeng said suspiciously: "But is it really okay if she looks like this?" ”

Mr. Bai was silent. Zhong Min's inner ups and downs are too obvious and violent, and at this time, people's thoughts often determine the whole overall situation. She may be able to live, but if she herself does not want to live, it is meaningless for others to try. However, Bai Xingpeng didn't know his father's mind very well. Lying in front of him was Zhong Min, who he had just met, but in an instant, Zhong Min transformed into another person-it was Wang Xiaoyue, a jade man who had died at the hands of the four evildoers.

Bai Xingpeng has lived with his father since he was a child, and he has no mother. This is undoubtedly a big flaw and regret in the process of a child's growth. Fortunately, Bai Xingpeng was meticulously cared for and taught by a person who broke in from the outside world, and that person was the jade man Wang Xiaoyue. Wang Xiaoyue came here to escape the madness caused by the secret book of the cold region, but the world made people, and in the end she did not escape the doom of a tragic death, and her life ended in the hands of the four evildoers.

Bai Xingpeng regarded Jade Xiaoyue as his mother. On the day Wang Xiaoyue died, Bai Xingpeng followed in the footsteps of the four evildoers and vowed to risk his life to kill the four enemies who did not share the sky. At that time, there were no words sufficient to describe the resentment in his heart, the emotion that stemmed from endless sorrow, as if there was nothing but revenge in heaven and earth for a while.

However, when he chased the four wicked people, the four great enemies were strewn in front of him one by one. Bai Xingpeng was first disappointed in the truth, and immediately became happy again. He decided that it was the retribution given by the old angel. Later, he found Zhong Min half a mile away, and at that time, Zhong Min was already delirious.

Bai Xingpeng couldn't tell what mood he was in at that time, he just felt pity for this lonely and helpless girl. Later, when he knew that it was really her who killed the four villains, Bai Xingpeng was even more envious. He likes this girl who suddenly broke in like Aunt Satsuki, and he is afraid that she will suddenly disappear from his life like Aunt Satsuki.

Mr. Bai looked at his son's reaction and felt quite worried. As a father, of course he knew that there had always been a jade Xiaoyue, and he also knew that the death of that woman had hit Xingpeng hard. No matter who it is, there is always a limit to the grief that can be endured in the heart, can Xingpeng experience the process of his beloved leaving him again after just enduring the pain of life and death?

Mr. Bai called him his son, and Bai Xingpeng couldn't see or hear anything in his eyes except for the dying Zhong Min.

The partners who came back with Bai Xingpeng were huddled at the door, and the girl in red asked Mr. Bai, "Uncle Bai, what the hell is going on, and who is that woman?" Mr. Bai came out, motioned for everyone to leave the door and go to the outhouse, and then said, "It's a poor girl—" As he spoke, his gaze fell on the girl in red.

This girl is the daughter of the Luo family of the Jinzhuang family, her nickname is Xia'er, she was born beautiful and beautiful since she was a child, and she and Xingpeng were very incompatible when she was a child. It's just that when everyone grew up, when they reached the age where they were ignorant and knew the relationship between men and women, Luo Xia suddenly changed her sex, although her attitude was still domineering and tough, but her heart was gradually won over by Bai Xingpeng.

To be honest, Mr. Bai likes Luo Xia far more than Zhong Min. The former is a good girl who really belongs to nature, and having Xingpeng in her heart is a matter of her life, while Zhong Min and Mr. Bai are always at ease.

Luo Xia listened to him tell him about Zhong Min's origin, and her tone was immediately full of sympathy,—— this was not something she pretended to deliberately flatter. Luo Xia has been used to being cared for in the palm of her hand since she was a child, and she has always disdained to make a fake appearance to please people. However, the simple kindness of the mountain village made this simple girl involuntarily sad, and said, "Uncle Bai, will you take her in?" ”

Mr. Bai nodded. Luo Xia wanted to say something, but was pulled aside by the two teenagers. These two teenagers are the same age as Bai Xingpeng, the same size and figure, but they don't look as good as Bai Xingpeng, and they belong to a very rough type. One of them, Huzi, grabbed Luo Xia's left hand and said, "Xia'er, you have to think about this matter clearly." The other was called Donkey Dan, who took Luo Xia's right hand and said, "Xia'er, I can't think clearly, take a wrong step, and there will be days when you cry in the future." ”

Luo Xia slapped their hands away and said impatiently: "What, what are you, you are also secretive when you speak, so that people don't understand it." ”

Huzi said: "Don't pretend to be stupid, you didn't see Xingpeng's precious energy for that person named Min, you asked Mr. Bai to keep that woman down, isn't it equivalent to inserting a bar between you and Xingpeng, isn't it looking for troubles in vain?" The donkey said, "Not really." Mr. Bai usually likes you very much, let him drive the surname Zhong away, Xingpeng didn't dare not listen. ”

Luo Xia scolded: "What are you talking about? Look at your virtues, at first glance you are a seed without conscience. Why don't you let your mother drive you both away? Look at me and take care of you in the future-" When she said this, she also muttered in her heart, but it was not easy to say, and in a hurry, she only said to Mr. Bai and went out with a large group of partners.

Inside the house, Zhong Min's body was getting colder and colder. Bai Xingpeng couldn't help it, and suddenly burst into tears. Mr. Bai was seeing off a group of young people when he heard the sound and hurried into the house. Bai Xingpeng saw his father and said, "Why does she just refuse to turn back?" Am I not doing well enough? I begged her desperately, swore that I would take good care of her for the rest of her life, I only wished she would open her eyes, even if only a little move, but she kept ignoring me. I know she's messing with me, why does she have to do this......" He said incoherently, tears streaming down his face. Mr. Bai was afraid that he was also delirious, so he hurriedly said: "How can a person's life and death be decided by himself? Xingpeng, don't be too anxious, maybe what Miss Zhong needs most now is quiet recuperation, you will make her feel at ease. ”

Bai Xingpeng suddenly collapsed, and he said weakly: "Dad, will she die?" ”

"W-probably not......"

Bai Xingpeng cast a look at his father, then lowered his head and said, "I know she will leave me too, just like Aunt Xiaoyue." When it comes to Wang Xiaoyue, Mr. Bai can only feel a little pity more deeply than his son, but Bai Xingpeng said dreamily: "When Aunt Xiaoyue first told me that she might die one day, I cried and forced Aunt Xiaoyue to promise that day would never come. However, the day when I didn't admit it still came, and Aunt Xiaoyue left me forever despite the agreement between me and her. Now people are different, but things are the same. I'm destined to be an ominous person, as long as I want to be able to be together, in the end, all of them will leave me-"

When Mr. Bai heard his son's words, it was like being pierced in the heart by a sharp thorn, and he couldn't help but choke up: "That's not the case, Xingpeng, you're thinking too much." Bai Xingpeng cried: "As long as she can come back, I am willing to do anything for her." Dad, I can't stand it anymore, if she is like Aunt Xiaoyue, she walks away quietly, what is the meaning of me living in this world? Mr. Bai mourned, gently took his son into his arms, and was speechless for a long time.

Time passed slowly. The next day, Luo Xia and her general partners came to visit Zhong Min. On the way, I met Bai Xingpeng and his father who came out of the house, and I realized that the girl who appeared inexplicably yesterday looked like she was going to die, but she didn't die. Luo Xia and they didn't feel anything, Zhong Min was a stranger to them after all, and if he really died, he wouldn't make the people in the mountains cry and grieve. But Bai Xingpeng was very happy, Mr. Bai was unhappy, but he didn't let a group of juniors see it. Luo Xia and the others exchanged a few words and went to the Bai family with a small pot.

came to Bai's house, Bai Xingpeng waited for Zhong Min's house. Luo Xia and the others were originally chattering in, but they stopped talking at the door! Looking at Zhong Min, the person who survived from the brink of life and death will always have traits that ordinary people do not have. Zhong Min leaned on the head of the bed, glowing with the vitality of the second spring, although her face was pale, but she herself was full of charm that people could not ignore. Luo Xia stood beside Bai Xingpeng and looked at her, thinking of what Huzi and Donkey Dan said yesterday, she felt very uncomfortable.

Huzi and Donkey Dan were at ease, and brought the pot with the lid to Bai Xingpeng's eyes, and shouted: "Xingpeng, guess what is here?" Bai Xingpeng smiled: "What do you bring?" Isn't it just that I have a few hares, and I have already eaten them, and now they bring them to me, why, do you want me to compliment you a few words? Huzi picked up his hair and said with a smile: "I know I can't hide it from you, but in fact, we didn't deliberately give you back the pot meat." Isn't it because Xia'er was unhappy yesterday? ”

He only said this, and saw Luo Xia staring at him. Bai Xingpeng knew that his group of friends were not afraid of Luo Xia, so he said: "If she is unhappy, you tell me, otherwise you will look good." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Min coughed a few times on the bed, Bai Xingpeng hurriedly turned his head to look at her, and said urgently: "Xiaomin, have the internal injuries happened again?" ”

Donkey said: "Xingpeng, you really like the new and hate the old." We're all talking to you, Miss Zhong didn't call you, she is lying here well, are you still afraid that she will fly? He is the one who speaks with a yin and yang voice, Bai Xingpeng knows that they are all people who have something to say, plus Luo Xia is indeed a little hostile to Zhong Min, donkey eggs must be unfair for Luo Xia.

Luo Xia saw that Bai Xingpeng was not very moved, but just waved her fist as usual and pretended to beat the donkey's eggs, so she scolded: "You don't want to find a place to make trouble, don't you see Miss Zhong resting?" He pulled the donkey's eggs, and said to the tigers, "Let's go." ”

Bai Xingpeng said: "What's the hurry? It's also good to go back to the pot meat, so let's eat it here. Luo Xia pouted and said, "If you have something, I don't want to trouble you." She said to go, and the others looked at her. Bai Xingpeng said unhappily: "Okay, if you go out today, don't recognize me in the future, and don't step in the door of my house again." ”

This sentence was quite effective, Luo Xia ran back first, and scolded while beating him: "You are bad, who rarely wants to recognize you?" Huzi and Donkey Egg took turns to tease each other: "It's you, we are not rare!" Luo Xia was even more ashamed and had nowhere to hide, only to stomp her feet vigorously.

Zhong Min watched coldly, she was envious of the unrestrained jokes and fights between them, and at the same time she couldn't help but be jealous. Why is it that no one can get along with this like this without any intention like this? She had never had these seemingly most inconspicuous lives,—— even when Master was alive.

Bai Xingpeng saw her unnaturalness, so he asked everyone to be quiet, and then said: "Xiaomin, you can also eat a little together, the hare that was just brought back yesterday should taste good when it returns to the pot for the first time today." Zhong Min turned his face away and said, "I've been lying down for too long, and now I'm going out to breathe." As he spoke, he walked down to the ground and walked out of the door again.

Luo Xia and the others all quieted down all of a sudden, and they all turned their eyes to look at Bai Xingpeng. Bai Xingpeng thought for a while, but still chased out the door.

Zhong Min walked very fast, Bai Xingpeng kept chasing, and finally caught her on the bank of the river where Zhong Min fainted yesterday. But Zhong Min violently threw him away again, and said angrily: "What are you doing here?" They are all your friends who have played since childhood, and you are carefree with them, why did you run out to find me again? ”

Bai Xingpeng laughed, grabbed her arm and made her face himself and said, "Are you jealous, I'm not just good to you?" Zhong Min couldn't shake it off, so he said in surprise: "I didn't let you be good to me, you can be good to whoever you want!" Bai Xingpeng sighed, and suddenly said, "Xiaomin, didn't I already swear to you?" There is heaven to testify, and there are ten halls of Yan Jun watching, I will never fail you in this life. Yesterday, if you really didn't respond to me, I don't think I would be standing here today. ”

"And what will happen to you?"

"Do you have to say it?" Bai Xingpeng looked straight into her eyes, his eyes were fanatical and eager. Zhong Min suddenly covered his mouth a little frightened, and said in a low voice: "Don't say it, I believe you are." She knew what Bai Xingpeng wanted to say, and faintly, she realized that it was a bad sign.

Bai Xingpeng hugged her gently and said in a low voice, "Don't you remember what you said the moment you woke up?" You say......" Zhong Min covered his mouth again in disgust, and said shyly: "You still say?" I was unconscious, I didn't know what I was talking about. ”

Although this is the case, how could Zhong Min not know what he said at that time? At that time, her heart was really cold, but there was a stream of heat that invaded her. It was at that moment that she decided that as long as there was one person in the world who cared about her and hoped that she would survive, her heart could beat again. Yes, she can't die so easily, the precarious Valley of Despair, and Master's revenge, these are all strong and urgent needs for her to preside. She is so grateful to those who love her, and she must let her persecutors taste that life is worse than death......

At this time, she couldn't tell Bai Xingpeng that she actually had such complicated thoughts. At that time, what she said after waking up was: "Xingpeng, Xingpeng, I hope you will never leave me in this life...... Don't leave me, don't ...... I can't live without you, I can't lose you again......"

Zhong Min looked over the river, where layers of trees grew, covering the farther places, so that there was no future in sight.

Bai Xingpeng saw that her face was not very good, thinking that her internal injuries had not healed and her body was weak, and he was afraid that she would not be able to stand the cool breeze by the water, so he took off his coat and put it on for her: "Go back, Luo Xia and they have no bad intentions, and when the days are longer, you can get along well." ”

Zhong Min's heart tightened, and he turned his face to see a black thing flickering under his eyes. At first, she didn't take it to heart, but when she looked at it again, all of a sudden, Zhong Min found that she could hear the sound of her heart "thumping".

It's just a longevity lock or something. It's just that other people's longevity locks are generally made of gold or silver, and poor families also use copper. But Bai Xingpeng's piece is completely black, and it emits a strange brilliance like black jade. The shape is rectangular, and the surrounding area is carved with animal totems, which looks like a dragon, and then looks like a tiger. A round blank space is clustered in the center, supporting a "Xuan" character seal.

Zhong Min was stunned for a long time, involuntarily fell out of Bai Xingpeng's arms two steps, took two deep breaths, and then said to himself: "Impossible, this is impossible." ”

Bai Xingpeng was infected by her surprise, and also said in surprise: "What did you see?" He also looked down at the black sign hanging from his chest, but he didn't see anything wrong. Zhong Min barely suppressed the excitement in his heart, and straightened up his chaotic emotions and said, "I won't tell you, because you won't understand if you say it." She ignored Bai Xingpeng's unconsciously frowning brows, closed her eyes, and reviewed in her mind a little bit of the people surnamed Bai who had established a reputation in the rivers and lakes, and finally said: "Xingpeng, in addition to your father's name 'Mr. Bai', does he have an official name?" ”

"Absolutely." Bai Xingpeng reluctantly let himself not care about the shallow unhappiness in his heart, and replied honestly: "My father never tells outsiders, even me, and it only looks from his study. My father's name is a 'wind' word, and he calls himself 'Lotte'. ”
