Chapter 45: Misfortune Leads to the East
Willow Poplar Slope, Skull Village.
In just three days, the village has undergone earth-shaking changes. The festive red silk has been removed, and the happy words posted everywhere are no longer visible.
There was a gloomy and dead air in the whole village. The auditorium of the former worship hall has also become a mourning hall. The mourning music is slow and low, with an endless chill.
The heavy coffin was placed in the hall, and the little minions dressed in linen and filial piety pretended to greet the condolences of the guests. Today, Wan Tianhai's corpse will be buried. Looking at the man lying in the coffin, whether it was a mountain bandit or an outsider, he couldn't help but sigh and sigh.
Three days ago, he was still a high-spirited bridegroom with a full face of spring. Today, he is just a dead man. Can't breathe, can't speak, and can only be with the earth for the rest of your life.
The second leader lowered his head, glanced at his brothers in the field, and began to cry hoarsely. His voice startled everyone.
The third brother hurriedly persuaded him: "Second brother, the eldest brother has already gone, don't be sad." ”
"Yes, second brother, revenge for the eldest brother is the most important thing now. ”
The crowd persuaded each other.
The second leader wiped away his tears, looked at the brothers sadly, and said, "It's better to let the eldest brother enter the ground as soon as possible." It's better to be reincarnated as soon as possible and have a new home. ”
"Yes, it is right to go into the ground. ”
The second leader set the tone, and everyone hurriedly arranged for people to do it. In the dense forest outside the Skull Village, a clearing was vacated. There was a brook beside the clearing, and a crooked pine tree grew beside the stream.
This is the place where the sea of ten thousand heavens rests.
The coffin has been buried, and the grave is sharp. The second leader took the brothers to say goodbye for the last time.
"Big brother, you can go in peace. Brothers, leave it to me, you can rest assured, I will let everyone eat and drink well, and not be bullied by the outside world. The second leader said in a deep voice.
"Bye!" shouted the third one. The crowd bowed.
At this moment, an angry roar came from outside the forest: "Tan Yu'an, you brute, you come out for Lao Tzu!"
When they heard this, their faces changed. Everyone subconsciously looked at the second leader. Tan Yu'an is the real name of the second leader, and no one has mentioned it for many years.
Tan Yu'an narrowed his eyes, and a cold light shot out of his eyes. He looked sideways at Lin Wai, and he had already moved to kill. The person outside the forest, he knew, was Wan Tianhai's former friend Sun Chengtong, nicknamed the fast knife man.
Tan Yu'an hesitated for a moment, his expression instantly disappeared, and he turned into a sad appearance. He walked briskly out of the woods, and the others hurried to follow.
Outside the forest, Sun Chengtong held a big knife and stared coldly at the mountain bandits who came over.
Tan Yu'an didn't step forward too much, stopped from a distance, stared at Sun Chengtong, and said angrily: "Brother Sun, this place is the habitat of the eldest brother, you are so noisy, do you really want the eldest brother to die?"
"Don't * nonsense!" Sun Chengtong lifted his sleeves, glared at Tan Yu'an angrily, and asked: "On the day Brother Wan was killed, everything was planned by you. There is no such coincidence in the world, you must have designed it to be framed. ”
"Less blood!" Tan Yu'an roared angrily: "If I kill my eldest brother, why do I want to let Tao Shuting go? Only the eldest brother was kept in the dark. ”
"She's already on good terms?!"
It is said that Sun Chengtong was taken aback, and even those mountain bandits were stunned.
Tan Yu'an took a deep breath and said with great heartache: "That's right, that cheap * thing has already made a private agreement with someone for life, and he has lost his virginity." Alas, I want my eldest brother to be a hero, but I lost my life for such a watery poplar woman, and it hurts to be a brother. ”
In the end, Tan Yu'an was already beating his chest and heartbroken.
When Sun Chengtong heard this, he suddenly remembered someone. He asked tentatively, "Who is she like?"
Tan Yu'an shook his head: "I can't say that we are not his opponents." ”
"Second brother, who the hell is it?"
"Second brother, we have many brothers, so I'm not afraid of that. ”
"Second brother, say it quickly. ”
The mountain bandits kept urging. Tan Yu'an didn't speak, but looked at Sun Chengtong and said, "Brother Sun, on the day of Brother Wan's wedding, do you still remember that tea shed?"
"Tea shed?!"
"Clouds in the sky?"
"It's him!"
Everyone finally remembered this detail.
Tan Yu'an continued: "Why is this person here? Has this person finally appeared, and where has he gone?"
This series of questions finally cleared everyone's mind. This 'cloud in the sky' must know Tao Shuting, otherwise he would not have come. Brother Wan's death must be related to him, or even his hand.
Clouds in the sky?
Cloud Nine?
Tao Shuting?
Sun Chengtong thought back to these three names, and became more and more convinced that Wan Tianhai's death must be related to the pair of adulterers.
After thinking about it, he hugged his fists at everyone and said, "Brother Tan was wrongly blamed before, but it was I who made me dizzy, and I ask for your forgiveness." Let's say goodbye to the sky. After speaking, Sun Chengtong turned around, jumped out, and disappeared into the dense forest.
"Second brother, let's go and avenge the eldest brother. The mountain bandits suggested.
Tan Yu'an shook his head: "No, that thief's cultivation is extremely high, and it's not something we can compete with." This matter should be considered in the long run. ”
"However, the revenge of the eldest brother cannot be avenged. ”
"Big brother has knowledge under the spring, and he can't turn a blind eye when he dies. "There are leaders who are still unwilling, and they are so noisy.
Tan Yu'an didn't reply again, but looked into the distance. Biluo Lake is in that direction. He believes that Biluohu will definitely make a move.
On the east side of the Kunqi Mountains, in the northwest of the Daxing Empire, stands an ancient city, the Demon City. Thousands of years ago, it already existed.
Once demon beasts roamed the continent, this city was the first line of defense. To this day, the city is still bustling with people coming and going.
On the west side of the town demon city, five hundred and thirty miles, there are three low peaks, forming the trend of the horns, and are called the three mountains of the furnace. The world jokes that a big pot on these three mountains can cook rice.
A joke must be a joke, and naturally there is no such a big pot. Even if there were, no one dared to do it. Just because, this is the site of Biluo Lake. The depression in the middle of the three mountains is Biluo Lake.
Since Biluohu opened its door, the three mountains on the top of the furnace have gradually faded out of everyone's sight and become an existence in memory. Looking at it now, the three mountains on the top of the furnace are a lingering cloud. The white fog rolled all day, and the scenery inside was not visible at all.
Some people speculate that there are powerful formations in these three mountains. The specific details of Biluo Lake were not disclosed to the public.
At this moment, ten people came out of the white mist, all of them men. The first was a middle-aged man, carrying a long sword and a white robe, while the others were dressed in cyan shorts. On their cuffs are decorated with water lines.
The middle-aged swordsman looked at the sky and asked, "Xiong Kui, have you ever found out where the cloud lives in the sky?"
A young man stood up and pointed in one direction: "It's in the village of Hanging Pot." ”
"Let's go!" everyone walked in unison, and in a moment they were already in the distance.
