"How, old man, since you said that it was an evil skill, then you burned it, why did you keep it, not for the eldest brother!" Xiaohuzi replied loudly.

"Oh, I don't burn it, I have a reason why I don't burn it, and if you touch it, it's against the rules! And you say it's a joke for him on that basis!"

There was silence in the room for a while, and the heavy atmosphere made people feel tightness in their chests, as if they were about to suffocate.

"Ding Yan, how have I treated you in the past fifteen years?" Shou Fang's tone slowed down and said to Ding Yan.

"In the fifteen years of Ding Yan's grandfather's care, Ding Yan suffered 19 minor illnesses and three major illnesses, and was cured by his grandfather of dialect once when he was in a coma when he was young; There are countless other big and small things, like a child's biological parents. 」

"And even if that incident is counted in the past fifteen years, have I once been too harsh on you?"

"Never. 」

"Alas..." Shou Fangyan sighed deeply, and then said slowly, "Ding boy, you are what I grew up watching, no one knows what you are like better than me! 」

"You have a knack for remembering, and you're gifted with intelligence. But your innate talent is the reason you have to get out of here!"

"This scroll is a hand-copied scroll, which records a mystical and extremely profound practice that Ding Siguo inadvertently created, even if it is placed in the heavens and land, it is also above the middle and the middle. But the biggest drawback of this exercise is that you swallow its body and eat its soul, and in the end you will become a walking corpse with only the instinct to kill!"

"Listening to Xiulin, you just recited the above verbal decision, and then you performed a ghostly body technique! Then do you know why you fainted again? The so-called longitudinal shadow is the technique performed by manipulating the shadow and replacing the body with the shadow, and you lost your shadow precisely because of that incident! The consequences of its performance are even more serious than the former! At the least, you will be unconscious, or at the worst, your soul will be scattered on the spot!"

"And if you have already come into contact with this skill, you will automatically practice, there is no possibility of stopping, even if you are strong enough, you will only become a man-devouring beast in the end, do you want to harm everyone?!"

"Are you trying to hurt everyone!!"

"Are you trying to hurt everyone!!"

「......」

The last sentence of the Shou dialect was like a silver mango sharp needle, a little, a little piercing Ding Yan's heart.

"Ding Yan... Perhaps there will be a glimmer of life in the outside world. That's it, you go..."

The words of the Shou dialect made Ding Yan stand in place in a daze, and his heart was full of mixed tastes.

"Old man, I don't care! Don't you claim to be excellent in medicine, and if you don't have a disease that you can't cure, you must have a way to keep your eldest brother from becoming what you say! If you drive your eldest brother away, I won't stay here!" Xiao Huzi was extremely emotional, his thin face was already red, and a few green tendons had burst out on his thin neck.

"Little Huzi!'s enough..."Ding Yan snorted, and then used his last strength to say softly, "I understand, I... Let's go..."

His eyes slowly looked at Xiulin, dialect, and Xiaohuzi, and his body didn't stop anymore and walked out of the door.

"Big brother!" Xiaohuzi shouted, and chased after him. Only Xiulin, Shou dialect, and the air that had been frozen for a long time were left in the room.

"Grandpa..." In response to her, there was only a long sigh that seemed to pass through the years, and for a moment, Xiulin felt that the back of the person in front of her had suddenly aged a lot.

In the depths of the bamboo forest, on a stone path, two figures, one large and one small, walked slowly one after the other, and no one spoke.

Gradually, the stone path has disappeared, and in front of it, there is only a cliff, and only a corner of the sun is left behind the cloud mountain.

"Big brother... You must be feeling very uncomfortable... Although I know that you have always longed for Tianlu and wanted to become a peerless hero like Ding Siguo, but leaving in this way is..."

"Little Huzi, leaving either way is not a reason to be sad and sad. Ding Yan turned around slightly, and although he lowered his head, he could still see that there was a crystal object in the corner of his eye, preventing it from falling.

"If there's a way, I really don't want to leave here... Don't leave everyone!"

"Big brother, what are you talking about?"

Ding Yan raised his head suddenly, and saw the little tiger with his eyes narrowed lightly and the corners of his mouth raised in a fist gesture to himself.

"Big brother, go ahead. Become a hero like Ding Siguo and come back!"

In an instant, Ding Yan seemed to hear his own heartbeat, and Xiaohuzi's words made him no longer able to hang on to that heavy thing in the corner of his eyes. In the blink of an eye, Ding Yan also stretched out his arm and touched Xiaohuzi's fist.

Under the afterglow of the red clouds, the faces of both of them were bent and smiling.

......

"Little Huzi, the one on the back of your hand..." Ding Yan suddenly noticed that there was a blazing circular pattern on the back of Xiao Huzi's hand, and he couldn't help but be a little stunned, "When..."

"Hehe, big brother, I took your blazing powder the other day, sorry I didn't tell you. Xiaohuzi's apologetic words did not indicate the slightest sense of apology.

"Blazing powder" is the powder of a strange ore found by Ding Yan in the mountains. The ore is about the size of a baby's fist, shaped like a flame, slightly hot in the hand, and the hardness is average, and it can be pinched by a fraction. However, the number is extremely scarce, for more than ten years, even Ding Yan, who has been immersed in the bamboo forest for a long time, has only found a few three, two of which have been ground into powder by Ding Yan, and the remaining one is intact in Ding Yan's home.

And an unintentional move made Ding Yan discover a mystery of blazing powder. If there is a blazing powder attached to the skin, after being exposed to the sun, a flame will rise in the area of the application, accompanied by a burning sensation that pierces the heart, and after about three days, the burned area will appear with a distinctly abnormal scar. The little finger of Ding Yan's right hand was accidentally stained with a trace of powder and not cleaned up during grinding, leaving a burning scar.

"Big brother, I know that this kind of powder is very precious, maybe it is the kind of ore material you said that can be used to forge spirit swords, but I still use it! And I don't have a drop left! hehe!"

Listening to Xiao Huzi's words that seemed to be full of confidence, he couldn't help but cry and laugh, and said, "Little Huzi, if you want to have fun, you only need a little bit to make a pattern of this size. And no matter how rare those powders are, if you like them, I will never be stingy. It's just that it's been left to you because it's too dangerous, and the pain is really extraordinary!"

"Wait, you said you used it all?" Ding Yan grabbed Xiaohuzi's hand, and then asked, "All of it was used here?"

"Hehe!" Ding Yan replied with the laughter that was a little annoying.

"Bang!" Ding Yan punched Xiaohuzi in the left shoulder without warning, as if using some strength, and let out a muffled sound.

"Does it hurt! Little Huzi, you really live up to your name... You're not afraid to burn your hands! If Sister Xiulin sees it, I'm afraid it's going to be a beating!"

"Hehe, I'm worried that if I use it less, it will disappear after a long time..."

Only then did Ding Yan take a closer look at the scar mark on the back of Xiaohuzi's hand, compared to the one on Ding Yan's little finger, this circular pattern was already so red that it was golden! Ding Yan couldn't help but feel a turmoil in his heart, it was really hard to imagine what kind of pain the child in front of him had endured!

"Little Huzi, what is this pattern that you would rather endure the pain I can't imagine?" Ding Yan wondered.

"Sun!" With that, Little Tiger stretched out his hand and pointed to the golden red that only had a gap left in the sky. "It's also you, big brother. 」

"Me?"

"That's right! When I see this pattern on the back of my hand, it will be like seeing your back, big brother, and one day, I will also leave here to pursue you, big brother. When the time comes, I will be the eldest brother, your true little brother!"

......

The last touch of red glow on the edge of the sky also faded, and in the gaze of Xiaohuzi, Ding Yan waved his hand with his back and finally left.

After walking along the stone path for half an hour, Ding Yan's heart suddenly moved, and he said to himself, "I ran all over the vicinity of this village many years ago, and there are either cliffs or bamboo forests around it, and there is no way out at all, so why do I think I can leave if I keep walking...!"

Ding Yan patted his head and said in his heart, do you want to go back and ask the old man, but there was a hint of concern that made him unable to make a decision immediately, and after hesitating, a calm and hearty voice sounded.

"Ding boy, go on. 」

Shou Fangyan didn't know when he was already standing three feet in front of Ding Yan, and threw the light gray burden in his hand towards Ding Yan.

"Village Chief!"

"It doesn't have to be so formal. Shou Fangyan shook his head, and then threw another thing at Ding Yan, a small wine jar half a foot high, which was falling into Ding Yan's hands.

"You haven't been to a bar yet. Ding Yan, there is a pair of medicines I made for you in the wine, and from now on, you can return to ordinary life, but this is only the power of the medicine to forcibly change your condition, and it can't last for a few years, your own situation should be clearer than mine..."

"The last of the three prohibitions is that minors are not allowed to drink alcohol! Ding Yan, be an adult!"

With the words of Shou dialect, Ding Yan lifted the lid without the slightest pause, raised his head and poured the liquor in the jar into his throat, but the feeling of entering the mouth was like clear water, slightly surprised, and seemed to be expected.

"Sure enough... The only person in the world who can drink this wine, except for the brewer, is you..." Shou Fangyan sighed in his heart, and when Ding Yan drank it cleanly, he turned around and left.

......

"The old man asked me to find Huang Po... These two people have long felt a little suspicious, a god chattering every day, but he has good medical skills, and he may have been a disciple of any sect in the heavenly land. The other looks like a child, but she is called a mother-in-law, and I don't know if she has grown tall over the years..."

Ding Yan muttered as he walked towards the south of the village.

Looking at the spring pond around me, the past in my heart was flooding, and I couldn't help but feel a little emotional. It's just that he didn't feel a huge force in his chest for long, knocking him a few feet away.

Ding Yan, who was lying on his back, only saw a willow-yellow skirt floating in front of him, and then a slender palm pulled the placket of his chest and pulled him up.

"Little Dingzi, just now I taught you a lesson that you once peeked at a woman taking a bath!"

Before the crisp sound fell, Ding Yan only felt another sharp pain in his abdomen, and his body was floating in the air again.

"This time, I didn't play well just now!"

"It seems like I'm using a lot of strength this time... Well, do it all over again!"

"Well, this is a smooth punch. 」

Ding Yan only felt the rolling of his internal organs being beaten, and a hot burning pain came from the inside out of his abdomen, spreading continuously, stinging every nerve little by little.

But strange thoughts poured out of my mind inexplicably.

This should be that Huang Po, her strength is actually greater than that of a cow, and she is more powerful than the old man... Suspicious... Ding Yan felt that his heartbeat was getting slower and slower, and it seemed that it would stop at any time, his heart was horizontal, no, he had to see what you looked like when he died!

I didn't know where the strength came from, so I grabbed the white cloth boot beside me and looked up.

"Sister Xiulin?!"

"Little Dingzi, why are you lying here! The village is on fire, and it will burn before you run!"

Xiulin said hurriedly while pulling Ding Yan up.

After running a few steps with Xiulin, Ding Yan hurriedly said, "How can it catch fire! Everyone, what's wrong! No, I'm going back to fight the fire with everyone, the village can't be burned!"

"Don't! Little Dingzi! The fire is so big that there is no way to put it out! It's all gone... You're the only one left... Promise me... Don't look back!"

Ding Yan only felt that Sister Xiulin's figure was getting more and more blurred, and suddenly disappeared.

"Sister Xiulin!"

"No, I'm going back! You're going to be fine! You're waiting for me!"

"My legs, why can't I move!"

"Move, move!"

......

"Huh!", Ding Yan sat up suddenly, panting constantly, only to feel that his whole body was soaked with sweat, his vest and trousers were all stuck to his skin, and he gently shook his legs that were a little numb, and after a short while, he squinted his eyes and skimmed the wine jar that rolled down not far away.

"I, asleep? Was it a dream? It's okay, it's okay..."

Between words, Ding Yan looked at the sky, it was already hazy.

The cold wind was faint, and a faint smoke and bloody gas drifted by, Ding Yan's heart was suddenly startled, fire!
