Walking out of the blacksmith shop, Ye Qin's steps were a little heavy, and Uncle Wu's words made him feel a heavy sense of responsibility.

But Ye Qin did not intend not to accept this responsibility. Growing up in Qingshan Town, he has a very strong affection for this town.

And whether it was the oath he made at the gate of the town yesterday, or the wish he had always had in his heart, that is, to find out the whereabouts of his parents - no one had seen the bodies of his parents, so Ye Qin had always had a faint expectation in his heart, that is, his parents might not be dead, so he always wanted to find the traces of his parents, and these wishes prompted him to become stronger.

Walking on the road, Ye Qin kept pondering,

"Now I have two red star cores in my hand, if I can successfully absorb them, then I can reach 8 attributes, so I am not far from the peak of 9 attributes, but where can I find the blue broken tier star cores?"

Thinking of this, Ye Qin couldn't help but feel a little melancholy, how could the blue star core be found if you could find it? Many people have never seen what the blue star core looks like in their lives, let alone get it.

"Hey, let's take a step at a time, first get to the 9 attribute and then figure out a way. ”

Ye Qin shook his head, drove his thoughts out of his brain, and prepared to speed up his pace and return home to absorb the crystal nucleus.

At this moment, a heart-rending cry suddenly came from a corner of the street, "Old Zhou, you just left our mother and ...... gone."

"It's ......"

Ye Qin raised his head and looked in the direction where the voice came out with some surprise,

It seems to be Aunt Wang's voice. ”

Ye Qin hurriedly walked in the direction where the voice came from, turned a corner, and a wooden hut appeared in front of him.

The roof of the hut was covered with a thick layer of grass, the door was wide open, and on the floor lay a man wrapped in a straw mat, beside which knelt a woman and a child.

The woman was about forty years old, and the child was only eleven or twelve, and they were weeping bitterly. When Ye Qin saw this scene, he suddenly felt as if there was a thousand weights under his feet, and he couldn't take a step.

The owner of the hut is surnamed Zhou, the woman's surname is Wang, Ye Qin generally calls them Uncle Zhou and Aunt Wang, these are two good people, when Ye Qin was a child, because his parents were in trouble, he grew up eating hundreds of meals in the town, and Uncle Zhou's house is the home where he eats the most.

Everyone in the town is not wealthy, and it is already stretched to support their own family and at the same time provide for themselves or their family to practice martial arts, let alone afford another child. Therefore, even if the folk customs in the town are very simple, it is difficult for a Qiao woman to cook without rice, although she sympathizes with Ye Qin, it is not easy to ask him to eat one or two meals a week.

And Uncle Zhou was well-known in the town at that time, a strong man with 5 attributes, although he was not rich because he wanted to cultivate, but the family's food, clothing, housing and transportation could still be guaranteed, and when Ye Qin had no food to eat, it was Aunt Wang who took the young Ye Qin's hand and came to her home, so that he could have a steaming meal.

And that child is the child of Uncle Zhou and Aunt Wang, Ye Qin was born when he was 8 years old, and he has been called "Brother Qin, Brother Qin" behind Ye Qin's ass since he was a child. So when Ye Qin heard the cry as if it was Aunt Wang's voice, he very much hoped that he had heard it wrong, but unfortunately the reality was cruel.

He gently walked behind Aunt Wang and patted Aunt Wang's shoulder, Aunt Wang looked back and saw that it was Ye Qin, and cried even louder, and when the child saw Ye Qin coming, he directly jumped up and hugged Ye Qin's legs, crying,

"Brother Qin, Dad, Dad, he ............"

Ye Qin patted the child's head, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red, this operation was too big and too big, in the usual situation, the town encountered at most a few scattered zombies, but this time it was a rare situation in the town in a hundred years, although the harvest was huge, but the damage was also huge! How many familiar people were separated by yin and yang in one day, how many families were separated, and how many children had no parents since then.

Ye Qin knelt down, opened his arms and hugged Aunt Wang's mother and son, listening to their cries in his ears, the desire to become stronger in his heart became more and more firm.

In the evening, Ye Qin sat on a stool in the cabin and asked Aunt Wang, who was sitting next to him:

"Aunt Wang, Uncle Zhou is gone, do you and Xiao Zhou have any plans in the future?"

In the past few hours, Ye Qin and Aunt Wang took Uncle Zhou's children to find a place to bury Uncle Zhou's body, and set up a monument, and then helped Aunt Wang and them deal with a series of things after Uncle Zhou's death, and then returned to the cabin to sit down and rest.

Hearing Ye Qin's question, Aunt Wang couldn't help but sobbed in a low voice, and only spoke after a while:

"Xiao Ye, thank you so much today, the eldest mother has no other plans, just raise Xiao Zhou well, you also know that Xiao Zhou's qualifications are not good, I don't expect him to be able to fuse the star core to become a strong person, just be an ordinary person in peace." ”

Ye Qin listened to Aunt Wang's words, and was about to speak in a hurry, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed back.

He knew that Uncle Zhou's child Xiao Zhou was indeed not qualified, Uncle Zhou found him 3 star cores to fuse, but all failed, for ordinary people, after the failure of fusion star cores, the body will have a special induction, that is, it probably takes a few star cores to successfully fuse, but Xiao Zhou can only sense that there is no time to successfully fuse the star core, which is the embodiment of poor qualifications.

And now that Uncle Zhou has died, it is not easy for Aunt Wang's family to just maintain food and clothing, let alone provide Xiao Zhou with cultivation resources.

Thinking of this, Ye Qin could only sigh in his heart, and then said: "Aunt Wang, if you need any help in the future, just come to me, you and Uncle Zhou will never forget your kindness to me!"

Aunt Wang listened to Ye Qin's words, glanced at Ye Qin with some emotion, and said:

"Xiao Ye, if you have this heart, the eldest mother will be content, but you will need a lot of money to cultivate by yourself, and the eldest lady has no problem raising Xiao Zhou's child, so there is no need to trouble you. ”

Speaking of this, Aunt Wang paused:

"However, if it is convenient for you now, Xiaoye, Auntie really has something I want to ask you for a favor. ”

After hearing this, Ye Qin hurriedly said:

"Aunt Wang, if it weren't for you and Uncle Zhou, Ye Qin might have starved to death, if you say anything directly, Ye Qin will never refuse. ”

After listening to Ye Qin's answer, Aunt Wang nodded, took out something wrapped in cloth, and continued:

"Although your Uncle Zhou went to this operation, he also got a zombie head......

Speaking of this, Aunt Wang's voice was a little choked again, and she paused before continuing:

"But there is a lot of risk in opening a zombie head, so the eldest lady wants to ask Xiao Ye if you know someone who collects zombie heads? “

Ye Qin listened to Aunt Wang's words, thought for a while and said:

"There are people like Aunt Wang, after all, if you open a star core, it is a sure deal, and if you bet on a rare star core, it will take longer to make a big profit, but after all, it is a gamble, and their bid is generally not high. “

Aunt Wang listened to Ye Qin and said:

"Low bids aren't a problem, how many can there be?"

Ye Qin replied:

"It's usually 3 gold coins and a zombie head, so let's do it, Aunt Wang, you can sell it to me directly, and you don't have to run again." ”

In fact, there are indeed zombie heads in the town to gamble on luck, but the price is generally not more than 1 gold coin, or even lower, after all, the probability of the red star core is only one tenth, and the other colors are even lower than negligible, if you really want 3 gold coins, it is better to spend 5 gold coins directly to buy a red star core.

However, Ye Qin knew that with Aunt Wang's character, he would never accept his help in vain, and he was still having a headache about how to help Aunt Wang's family, but it turned out that Aunt Wang actually asked him such a question, and he just took this opportunity to falsely report a wave of prices to help Aunt Wang.

"That's not low!"

Aunt Wang was taken aback when she heard Ye Qin's answer.

"Aunt Wang, although this is a gamble, it is also an opportunity, and if you open a star core of other colors, it will make a lot of money, and the opportunity is still very valuable. “

Ye Qin saw that Aunt Wang was a little distrustful, and knew that his price might be a bit high, so he was busy thinking of some lines to remedy it.

"This ......"

Aunt Wang was a little hesitant, she instinctively felt that something was wrong, but now was the time to urgently use money, plus what Ye Qin said did make some sense, she was originally just an ordinary person, and she didn't know much about the world of cultivators, and Uncle Zhou didn't tell her this when he was alive, so after thinking about it, he still nodded:

"Okay, Xiaoye, then I'll give it to you. “

After hearing this, Ye Qin hurriedly took out three gold coins and put them on the table, then picked up the wrapped zombie head, stood up and said goodbye to Aunt Wang:

"Aunt Wang, you must be very tired today, just rest early with Xiao Zhou, I won't bother. “

After speaking, he turned around and left, he was afraid that Aunt Wang would come back to her senses and regret it, so he didn't stop leaving at all.

"Hey, Xiaoye ......"

Aunt Wang screamed, but saw Ye Qin leave without looking back,

"This kid ......"

Aunt Wang muttered to herself in a low voice, she also vaguely understood that Ye Qin might be helping them, but she did need these three gold coins, whether it was for this family or for the children, so she could only silently accept Ye Qin's kindness.

On the other side, Ye Qin walked quickly towards his home. When he got home, he put all the things on the ground.

"Alas, Uncle Zhou's departure, Aunt Wang's life will be sad. ”

Ye Qin sighed in a low voice in his heart, but people can't be resurrected after death, so he can only decide to pay attention to Aunt Wang's family silently, and help as soon as he finds anything that needs help.

After making up his mind, Ye Qin also felt a little tired, after all, he had been busy for a day, and he had experienced the ups and downs of Uncle Zhou's sacrificial feelings, so he was ready to rest for a good day today and start absorbing the star core tomorrow, after all, absorbing the star core requires a very complete state.

"But let's split this head first, and we'll be able to deal with it tomorrow. ”

Ye Qin thought that he just wanted to help Aunt Wang's family, and he didn't think about what kind of star core he could open, and even today Ye Qin looked at the hideous expression of the zombie head and felt a little disgusted in his heart, Uncle Zhou was sacrificed at their hands.

So Ye Qin took out the knife and slashed directly at the zombie's head cleanly, with a bit of hatred in the movements of his hands.

"Pop" The head opened in response, but this time with the opening of the skull, what came out was no longer Ye Qin's familiar red light, in the middle of the hideous zombie head, a star core emitting a soft orange light was lying there quietly, looking at this star core with flashing orange light, Ye Qin's whole person was completely stunned.
