"Squeak!"

Outside a small wooden house at the junction of the Hundred Miles of Wasteland and the Falling Snow Mountains, the door slowly opened, and a young figure cautiously walked out of the house.

Gently clasping the door, the young man moved lightly, looking back from time to time, for fear of alarming the people in the house.

"Big brother, where are you going?"

Su'er suddenly appeared in front of Lu Yun like a ghost, scaring Lu Yun into a clever man, stumbling under his feet, and almost falling to the ground!

"Shh

Lu Yun gestured to Xu'er in some panic and said softly.

"Big brother, I have some things to deal with, I'll be back tomorrow, you can go back to sleep quickly." ”

Hearing this, Su'er blinked strangely.

"Big brother, is the place you are going to be fun?

Su'er said with a look of excitement.

"No, no, no, the place where the big brother is going is very dangerous, and you are too young to go!"

Lu Yun waved his hand at Xu'er and said softly.

Just when Lu Yun was panicked and explained to Xu'er, the wooden door behind him suddenly opened.

"Brother Yun, why don't you call me!

Qin Lie walked out of the house, looked at Lu Yun and said with some anger.

"Young man, where are you going?"

The old man in the other room was also awakened by the noise coming from outside, and slowly walked out of the house with his clothes on.

"It's... I..... ”

His whereabouts were discovered by everyone, and Lu Yun had no choice but to give up, and after explaining to everyone, he returned to the house together.

In the cabin late at night, the fire in the corner of the wall is blazing, bringing warmth to the cold night.

In front of the wooden table, three large and one small four figures sat around.

"Xiao Lu, now that the Extreme North Ice City is chasing you everywhere, why do you want to go back?"

The old man sat at the table, looked at Lu Yun and the others on the side and asked slowly.

"Alas~, Xu Lao, I.... ”

Lu Yun sighed lightly, and stopped talking a little.

"I want to go back and see her. ”

After a long time, Lu Yun spoke leisurely, with a little sentimentality in his expression.

"Then you can't go like that, and now there are notices all over the city to arrest you, if you go straight like that. I'm afraid that just a few steps into the city, I will be arrested by those officers and soldiers!"

Xu Lao said, his face flushed with a little worry.

"What should I do then?"

Qin Lie on the side rubbed his forehead and said with some anxiety.

When Xu Lao heard this, he lowered his head and thought for a while.

"If you're really determined to go, I've got a solution!"

Xu Lao slowly raised his head, and his eyes flashed.

"What's the solution?"

When Lu Yun and Qin Lie heard this, their brows furrowed, and they hurriedly approached Xu Lao.

"Well, that's how it works, that's ........ ”

Xu Lao approached the two and said slowly.

Hearing what Xu Lao said, Lu Yun frowned slightly, looking a little hesitant.

"No, what if we are discovered? The two of us can say that with our own cultivation, we can get entangled with the imperial soldiers in that city. But what do you do? No, I can't let you take such a big risk for your own selfish gain!"

Lu Yun shook his head violently and said with a resolute expression.

Hearing this, Xu Lao smiled lightly.

"Eh, have you forgotten that I don't still have a child?"

Xu Lao said with a smile, turning his head to look at the side who was lying on the big basin the size of the two people's heads, eating rice.

"Su'er?"

Lu Yunren turned his head to look at Xu'er on the side, slightly puzzled.

When she heard the movement, she raised her head and saw that everyone was looking straight at her. looked at the big basin in his hand, and then at the three people sitting on the table, his face was slightly red, and he looked a little embarrassed.

"Uh... Do you want to eat it?"

Su'er raised the large basin in her hand in front of the three of them, and said a little stunned.

The atmosphere that originally seemed a little dignified was instantly broken by Su'er's sentence.

"Poof~!"

Looking at the fluffy man with a slightly red face, a mouth covered with rice, and a stunned holding a large basin, Qin Lie couldn't help laughing for a while.

"Hmph, what are you laughing at? Don't eat and pull down!"

glanced at Qin Lie, and said angrily. He walked to the stove with a large basin, sat down on a stool and continued to eat.

"Haha~!"

Xu Lao Ye'er laughed amused at this expression, turned his head and continued to say to the two.

"Don't look at Su'er's young age, but compared to you cultivators, her strength is not bad at all. In my opinion, Xu'er's current strength should probably be equivalent to that of you cultivators who gather the spirit stage to the spirit Xuan stage. ”

Xu Lao said slowly with a calm face.

"What?Spirit Period?just her?"

When the two of them heard this, they looked at the Su'er who was sitting by the fireside and eating in amazement, with a face full of incredulity.

Time passed, and the next morning followed. A crisp bell rang, and a dilapidated beast cart carrying a full load of goods slowly drove towards the southern gate of the Far North Ice City.

"Jingle bells!"

"Yo, old man Xu, are you here so early today?"

A soldier from the Ice City stopped in front of the beast cart and greeted Xu Lao.

"Hey, I can't help it, it's all for my livelihood. ”

Xu Lao smiled at the soldier in front of the car, looking very familiar.

"Haha!"

The soldier smiled happily, walked slowly to the front of the car, and tried to reach out and lift the tarpaulin covering the car to inspect it.

"Eh~, don't check it. Old man Xu has been pulling goods in this city for so many years, can there be any problems?

A tall figure came from the side, it was Xu Hu who took them to the barracks to sign up when Lu Yun and the others first came to the city.

The soldier who was about to lift the tarpaulin heard Xu Hu's words and smiled.

"Let's go, let's go!"

The soldier withdrew his outstretched hand, beckoned at Xu Lao, and said with a smile.

Seeing this, Xu Lao's originally nervous heart calmed down slightly.

"Hahaha, then I'll go first! When I have time one day, I'll invite you two to dinner." ”

Xu Lao forcibly suppressed the tension in his heart and said with a smile at the two.

"Hahaha, okay!"

A burst of hearty laughter came, and Xu Lao drove the creaking beast cart slowly into the city from the city gate.

"Jingle bell!"

Outside a somewhat secluded alley, the dilapidated beast cart slowly stopped. The tarpaulin behind the car was lifted slightly, and two teenagers jumped out of the car.

"Old Xu, thank you!"

Lu Yun slowly walked in front of Xu Lao and waved slightly towards him.

Seeing this, Elder Xu hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Lu Yun.

"Oh, yes, this can't be done, hurry up!"

"Go and stay safe, I'll be waiting for you here in the evening!"

Xu Lao waved his hand at Lu Yun and the others and said.

"Okay, Mr. Xu, then we'll go first. ”

Lu Yun didn't hesitate anymore, said to Xu Laodao, and ran towards the alley with Qin Lie.

"Wait!"

Behind him, Xu Lao suddenly made a sound and drank the two of them.

"Old Xu, what's wrong?"

Lu Yun turned around and asked with some confusion.

"Let Su'er go with you! If she's there, you'll be a little more secure. ”

Xu Lao glanced at Xu'er, who was sitting beside him, and said slowly.

"Grandpa, what should you do when I go?"

Su'er stared at Xu Lao with big eyes, and said with a hesitant expression.

"Yes, Xu Lao, you ....."

Lu Yun also spoke slowly, with some hesitation between his words.

"Hey, it's okay!"

Xu Lao waved his hand.

"I don't have many orders today, I can do it myself, go, go!"

"Grandpa. ”

Su'er looked up at Xu Lao and said softly.

"Alas, all right, you go quickly! Don't worry, my old bones are not yet to the point where I can't do anything. ”

Xu Lao said, and casually hugged Xu'er from the car. After admonishing the two, he drove away.

In the early morning, bursts of cooking smoke rose from the people's homes in the city, and the spacious avenues in the city seemed to be alienated because of the severe cold of the early morning.

In the alleys on the side of the street, three figures, two tall and one short, are sneakily walking slowly along the shadows of the wall.

Soon after, outside the General's Palace.

"Brother Yun, don't be too sad. ”

Looking at Lu Yun, who looked at the general's mansion full of white silk in the distance, looking extremely painful, Qin Lie snorted lightly with a little sadness.

"Uh~, I'm fine. ”

Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, Lu Yun turned around and said softly.

At this moment, the closed door of the General's Mansion suddenly and slowly opened, and a group of servants dressed in sackcloth walked out of the mansion with General Yin and his wife.

"Alas~, let's go. ”

General Yin glanced at the lady beside him and said with a sad expression. Then, he walked in the direction of the north of the city with the group behind him.

"Let's go, let's follow them. ”

Lu Yun turned his head and said hello to the two people behind him, got up and followed General Yin and his party. Qin Lie and Su'er also followed behind them.

But the three of them didn't see it, and not long after they left, a figure dressed in black slowly emerged from the depths of the alley where the three of them had just been.

"Humph!"

Looking at Lu Yun and his entourage, who were getting farther and farther away, the man in black snorted coldly, and his expression looked a little hideous.

Then, I saw that the man casually took out a piece of jade slip the size of a fingernail from his arms, and a yellowish aura gushed out, slowly blending into the jade slip.

"Those two boys are here!"

The man in black casually put the jade slip to his mouth and whispered, and then his fingers pressed slightly. Only a crisp sound was heard, and the jade slip was instantly pinched into powder.

"Whew~!"

Bursts of light emanated from the jade powder, and with it, the powder slowly floated from the black-clothed man's hand. Turned into a streamer of light and flew from the sky towards the south!

At the top of a hill in the north of the city, a mound of loess rises slightly.

On the snow-covered hills, there was no snow on the mound. The loess piled up on the grave was slightly moist and looked like a new grave.

"Click!

A group of figures dressed in sackcloth slowly walked slowly from a distance, and it was General Yin and his party who walked out of the General's Mansion not long ago.

Piles of tributes were neatly placed in front of the tomb, and a few green smoke rose from the incense candles and drifted into the air, gradually dissipating with the breeze.

"Plop!"

General Yin and his wife, who were walking in front of the crowd, knelt down in front of the grave in unison.
