A month passed, two months passed, and the boy who was immersed in the medicine tank still showed no signs of waking up. Half a year has passed, and a year has passed, and the icy and snowy land of Aoki Valley is overflowing with the fragrance of medicine.

"Grandpa, I've already changed the medicinal soup. In the busy day after day, the little girl's thin body gradually became slender, as if she had grown into a girl's appearance, and said softly: "I want to go deep into the mountains today, and I may come back later." ”

"Grandpa, look. Helping the old man to sit down in front of the medicine jar, the girl glanced at the young man in the medicine jar, and saw that his closed eyes moved, and hurriedly exclaimed, "He is awake." ”

"Get some clean clothes. The old man leaned forward and said with a smile: "Good boy, you are really fateful." ”

"What kind of place is this?" The young man who looked around took the clothes handed over by the girl, looked at the simple house full of medicinal herbs in front of it, and asked aloud, "Did you save me?"

"You're awake. The girl took the futon and put it on the stone bench, helped the stumbling boy to sit down, and said, "I thought you would smash grandpa's signboard." ”

"How do you feel now?" the old man at the foot of the slope circled around the boy and asked, "Do you remember how you were injured?"

"I just fell off the cliff, and I don't remember what happened after that. The young man slowly stood up, leaned over and hugged his fists and said, "For the rest of my life, thank you seniors for saving your life." ”

"You're naughty, you can't do anything in such a dangerous place. The girl pouted and said, "It's really a problem." ”

"Naughty?"

Looking at the sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl in front of him, the young man was stunned, and then he realized his abnormality. Not to mention the immature voice, the body seems to be as thin as a child, and the hanging hands secretly exert force, except for the red face, there is no fluctuation of breath in the body.

"You can save some effort. Seeing that the young man clenched his fists, the old man coughed slightly and said, "In the past two years, the old man has checked your body many times, and you are just an ordinary man." ”

The afterglow of the setting sun has not yet dissipated from the earth, and the Aoki Valley in the latter autumn is already golden. The thin figure in a coarse cloth robe sat in the open space in front of the house, whether it was the scarlet in his memory, or the earth-shattering explosion of the mountain peak, the ruins and broken walls, and the dusty scenes, lingering in his mind.

After a long time, the young man lowered his head, and in his deep eyes, he could no longer hide the loneliness and loneliness, as if in the depths of his beating heart, filled with grief and despair.

"What's wrong with me?"

He didn't understand why he had already set foot on the road to the Yellow Springs, but why he was lingering in the valley thousands of miles away.

He didn't understand how his pride in the cultivation of Xuanjun's three grades of his peers could disappear in just two years, as well as his age of more than ten years and his child-like body......

"I don't know what happened to you. The old man limped to the boy with the help of the girl with his cane: "But judging from your injuries, it seems that there are still things waiting for you." ”

"For the rest of your life, let's go into the house with my sister. The girl took out a coat, draped it over the young man's thin body, and said with concern: "Your condition has just begun to improve, how can you sit down without eating or drinking like this, how can you be right for those who care about you." ”

"I'm going back. "The boy is stubborn.

"Hmph, the old man spent two years to save you, are you in such a hurry to go back and send you to death?" The old man straightened his back, stroked the frost-dyed long beard in the autumn wind, and snorted coldly: "A waste man who has lost his mysteries, going back now will only involve more innocent people, is this the result you want?"

Hearing the word Xuanqi in the old man's mouth, the young man's footsteps suddenly stopped, and at this time he realized that the rickety old man in front of him was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

"For the rest of your life, listen to grandpa. Seeing that the boy stopped, the girl hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Grandpa is also worried about you, it's not too late for you to heal your injuries in the valley and go back." ”

"Thank you for the care of the old man for the rest of my life. The young man turned around, looked at the old man in front of him who seemed to be a master of the world, and said, "I hope you will bear with me for what I have offended before." ”

"That's it, I see that you are the same age as Shiling, so just call me Grandpa like her. The old man walked to the chair and sat down, waved his hand and said, "Don't be a senior on the left and an old gentleman on the right, if you really can't do it, just call me Ye Lao." ”

"Let's call you Ye Lao. The young man smiled and said: "You are bold and resolute, no matter how you look at it, you are only in the year of destiny." ”

"Hehe, tell me where you came from. The old man smiled, stared at the thin young man in front of him and said, "The old man has been traveling from south to north for many years, no matter how you look at it, you don't look like a nobody." ”

"Ye Lao praised, I am a yellow-mouthed child, how can I get into your eyes. ”

"You are really modest, how can the person who is targeted by that group of evil wolves be a general. ”

Interrupting the young man's words, the old man propped his hands on crutches in front of his chest, and said bluntly: "If you hadn't had the Soul Condensing Pill to protect your heart, I'm afraid that the medicinal power of this Reverse Xuan Bone Melting Pill would have made your soul fly away and expose your corpse to the wilderness." ”

"Reverse Xuan Bone Melting Pill?"

Listening to the obscure name of the medicine in Ye Lao's mouth, the young man tried his best to suppress the throbbing in his heart, and asked out loud: "Is it the kind of Xuan Qi that can dissipate the Xuan Qi in the body until the flesh withers?"

"Why? I don't remember it so soon?" the old man turned his head, looked at the young man's surprised face, and said with a smile: "Isn't the way you look now, just because of this half-finished medicine pill?"

"According to what Ye Lao said, this Reverse Xuan Melting Bone Pill is just a remnant?" Thinking of the pain of losing all the muscles and bones, the young man said with palpitations: "If you hadn't encountered it in person, who would have believed that there was such a vicious pill in this world." ”

"Hmph, isn't this bullshit the Reverse Xuan Melting Bone Pill, and it also deserves to be called an elixir?" The old man snorted coldly and said, "Don't look at it as a medicinal herb taken from the water and fire that resolves people, it is nothing more than a poisonous pill that kills living beings." ”

"The prescription of this Reverse Xuan Bone Melting Pill was tried by that group of people more than 20 years ago. Seeing the young man looking at him in a daze, the old man let out a long sigh and said bitterly: "But until now, there is still no effective method of restraint. ”

"Dare to ask the group of people in Ye Lao's mouth, but the black mist is filled with cold breath?" The young man straightened up, and the figures of the Wind Rakshasa and the Deacon Eagle appeared in his mind, and said excitedly: "Do you know where they come from?"

"Boy. Staring at the young man who was looking for the roots, a trace of coldness flashed on the old man's pleasant face: "The old man advises you not to inquire too much, with the way you are now, I am afraid that your life will be lost if you know too much." ”

"Grandpa, just tell me. Seeing that the young man next to her stopped talking, the girl hurriedly shook the old man's arm and said, "Shiling also wants to hear it." ”

"Girl, don't join in the fun. Looking at the ring between the young man's fingers, the old man said unhappily: "To make it clear, the power behind him can't enter the eyes of that group of people." ”

"Isn't the entire Muyun Sect their opponent?"

Although the young man's Xuan Qi was lost, the memories that seemed to be engraved in his mind did not dissipate. Listening to the old man's loud words, the scenes began to rise in the young man's gradually calm heart, lifting a veil of mystery.

Wind Rakshasa and Deacon Yu, although they both have not weak cultivation, they are not very powerful characters in the eyes of the Senate Hall of Hidden Cultivators. However, the Senate turned a deaf ear to the two of them breaking into the back mountain, which is enough to show that the forces behind these two people are afraid that gambling on the century-old inheritance of Mu Yunzong is tantamount to using the mantis arm as a drop in the bucket.

"I still hope that Ye Lao is not strange. The young man wrapped the velvet shirt on his body tightly and smiled awkwardly: "The name of Yu Sheng is indeed made up by me." ”

"At such a young age, how can you be so cunning. Hearing this, the girl pursed her lips and complained: "Grandpa and I worked hard to save your life, but in the end we didn't even know your name, which really me off." ”

"Shiling, don't talk yet. The old man waved his hand, looked at the red-faced young man and said, "He doesn't want to bother us." ”

"Ye Lao, Shiling, you two have a life-saving grace for me, but I don't dare to tell me by my real name, it's really helpless, please don't blame you. The young man looked at the angry girl in front of him, and then turned his gaze to Ye Lao and said: "My real name is Xu Sheng, and I am the personal disciple of Mu Yanqing, the sect leader of Muyun Sect, and I only ended up here because I was plotted against in Cangyou Mountain two years ago. ”

"Hehe, it's better to see than to hear. The old man propped up the table with his right arm, leaned against the back of the chair and coughed lightly: "No wonder they want to get rid of you with all their intentions, as far as you have the potential to step into the monarch realm at the age of twenty-five, how many people are not afraid." ”

Ye Lao said with a smile. The young man raised the corners of his mouth slightly, but he couldn't hide the loss in his eyes, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "The way I look now, I am really an ordinary man." ”

"It's fine if you do die on the cliff. Looking at the gloomy expression of the young man in the past, a trace of unbearability flashed in the old man's eyes, but he still said categorically: "But now, it's just the beginning of a nightmare." ”

"Now that I've fallen to this step, is there still a threat to them?" Looking at his unfamiliar body, the young man woke up like a dream and said, "Could it be that they will kill them all?"

"Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots is their style. The old man said: "What's more, you are talented, if I don't completely wipe you out, I will not be relieved." ”

"Please also ask Ye Lao to speak bluntly. ”

"Mu Yunzong, you can't go back, you might as well start over incognito. Looking at the dim night, the old man stood up, threw out a scroll with his hand, threw it over, and said, "Now only by meditating on cultivation and improving yourself can you spend the rest of your life protecting the people around you, and the rest of your life to eradicate that group of evil wolves that are eyeing you." ”
