Chapter 21: Bad News

A huge fireball streaked across the sky, falling inside the Qianyuan Valley and bursting in vain, the raging flames pushed in all directions, the air waves rolled like a tide, blowing away the thick layers of soil on the earth, the air was filled with the smell of scorching heat, and from time to time someone let out a scream, burned to death by the flames, or torn in half by the air waves.

In the middle of this valley, which seemed to be leveled at any time, a thin light spread out from inside the carriage, probably forming a light shield about ten zhang of defense, dozens of knights clenched their swords, looking at the waves of flames splashing on the light mask with solemn expressions, but their eyes were not as calm as they imagined.

Outside the light shield, a battle formation of more than a hundred people blocked the attack of the Walli people in the narrow valley mouth, and the screams and shouts of killing had already been connected.

In fact, from the time of the attack, this battle destined to be a trap has long since turned into a brutal war of attrition.

In this attack, the Wali gathered a large number of warriors, the number of which was as many as thousands, and many of the guards in it had fought with the Wali many years ago, at that time, they were still the elite monks of the Yin family, and the Wali people were just a group of barbarians with backward equipment and loose Taoism in their eyes.

However, time has passed, and the former group of barbarians have put on solid armor, although the Dao method has not made much progress, but relying on the warlock camp hidden behind the opponent, they still firmly suppressed the impact of many Yin clan disciples, and they fought and retreated, and retreated into the Qianyuan Valley, relying on the narrow terrain of the Qianyuan Valley to resist the enemy who was twenty or thirty times their own.

Outside the valley, there was a rumbling sound from time to time, as if a thunderbolt had suddenly exploded on the earth, and this terrifying momentum seemed to be even more powerful than inside the valley.

Yin Heng looked out of the valley and frowned slightly, he walked to the side of the carriage and said to the inside of the carriage.."Family Master, there are signs of using large-scale Dao methods outside the valley, it seems that the manpower of that group of people is not only these, it seems that there are other goals, I am afraid that their calculations are not just us." ”

The curtain inside the carriage was lifted, revealing Yin Lihua's expressionless face, and she stepped out of the carriage, holding a golden scepter more than three feet long in her right hand, and a hazy light rippled in all directions, and the defensive light shield in the center of the valley emanated from the inside of this scepter.

This golden scepter is the treasure of the Yin clan, named Jin Zhiwu. In the entire Yin family, this Jin Zhiwu is not only an infinitely powerful weapon, but also a symbol of the inheritance and exercise of rights by the Yin clan, which has always been held by the head of the family. Twenty-five years ago, the previous head of the family did not know the life and death of Yin, and the Yin clan plummeted, and their group of wandering fires concealed their identities, until a few years later, they received a summoning name printed with Jin Zhiwu, and they changed their appearance and gathered under Yin Lihua's hands.

Since she has Jin Zhiwu in her hands, then she is naturally the head of the Yin family of this generation.

As for the choices, from the day the Yin family declined, they already had very few choices.

"Whoever they're targeting, we're going to die, aren't we?" she said, squinting at the flames in the sky.

"Ugh!"

Yin Heng was stunned for a moment, and finally sighed.

In fact, with her means, the only surviving fire of this group of Yin clan does not know much about what happened back then, because after the decline of the entire Yin family, the original intelligence system has been hit almost devastatingly, and many problems cannot be used as a basis for judging both sides of things, plus the family's business has been devoured by the major clans in Baiyun City, and there are almost only some bones left, just want to survive, and these people do not have too many choices.

For so many years, she knew that the old man in the backyard of the Chu clan ancestral hall was not very good to her senses, or rather, because of some grudges between the two families, if she could, the old man didn't mind killing her at all, she once racked her brains to increase her right to speak, gathered a group of her own strength, and even used all means to have sex with him while the man was drunk, and finally conceived his child as she wished, at that time she thought, even for the sake of the child, the old man should not have pierced all the truth, and then leaked in broad daylight, and in the years that followedAnd things really went in the way she had imagined.

After all, it was the man's own grandson, even if the old man's attitude was not good, he didn't touch her because he had scruples.

Originally, she could continue to endure and work hard to maintain the image of a good wife and mother, as long as all the dusty memories were not opened, she could still justifiably be her Mrs. Chu, the nominal hostess of the Chu family.

It's just that...... But when the man's son appeared, everything became different.

Maybe he wanted to take this opportunity to almost eliminate all the remaining strength of the Yin family, or maybe he wanted to give an explanation of what happened back then, in short, the old man finally made a move and became aggressive.

At this moment, the old man was so resolute that he didn't give her any choice at all.

Thinking of a series of things that happened before, she suddenly smiled: "I've endured it for so many years, why don't you, now, you don't want to endure it, I do it, and you have a reason to do it, it's just ...... You're pushing me, you know?"

She looked at Baiyun City in the distance, and suddenly laughed weirdly.

......

......

Outside Tsing Yi Alley, two unicorns stopped in front of the ancestral hall.

Chu Wenyuan turned over and jumped down, and hurriedly rushed to the backyard of the ancestral hall.

He is not a demented and stupid person, many things cannot be completely unnoticed, since that incident happened back then, Su Su has been silent, and then there is news of an accident, he has always thought that someone has done something wrong with it. For so many years, he and his mother and the nominal wife who lived in seclusion in the backyard of the ancestral hall have been in a state of cold war, and they may not be without suspicion of these two people in their hearts.

When he saw Chu Xuan at the ancestral hall that day, it was really not necessarily indifferent emotions that were at fault, but the situation of the Chu family was really a bit complicated, with scattered power and many branches, and he didn't want Su Su's son to fall into the endless whirlpool of the Chu family again, to involve something that was almost disgusting. He deliberately suppressed everything, but unexpectedly, some people still couldn't help it, he didn't know who led him out this time, but he knew that his mother, who lived in seclusion in the backyard of the ancestral hall, must know the truth of everything,

With that in mind, he rushed into the courtyard and slammed open the wooden door.

"Mother, mother!" he looked at the appearance in the room, even if he fantasized about many scenes, he was still stunned.

In the room, the old man leaned on the soft couch with his eyes closed, his expression was calm, but the color on his face was as pale as paper, and when he heard the sound of him pushing the door in, the old man opened his eyes slightly, looked at him and smiled...... It's back. ”

"Huh", when she opened her mouth to speak, bright red blood suddenly flowed from the corner of her mouth, Chu Wenyuan was stunned, stepped forward in disbelief, and hugged ......the old man... What's wrong with you?"

He stretched out a hand, and the power of the Dao worked, reaching into the old man's body.

"Your meridians ......" he was startled, and looked at the old man with blood-red eyes wide.

No matter what this person is wrong or what he has done, it is always his mother, the one who gave birth to him and raised him.

He can be cruel to her, or he can blame her, but he can't bear to be hurt by someone.

"Nobody. The old man shook his head, "It's me, my own hand." ”

"You?" he felt as if his neck had been choked.

"For the sake of ...... Atonement!"

"Ransom...... Atonement?" Chu Wenyuan opened his mouth, his eyes moist and complicated.

"Yes, there are some sins, and they always have to be repaid...... she blinked weakly, looking at Chu Wenyuan with a depressed expression.."Don't blame me...... Back then, I listened to slander, and in the end, I made a big mistake, and this kind of fate ...... Ahem......" She suddenly let out a rapid coughing sound.

"You...... You don't want to talk about it...... I ......" He suddenly cried out like a child, and at this moment, the estrangement of the past disappeared without a trace, and even if there was a deep resentment, it became less important at this time.

"I've been thinking that if ...... Back then, I didn't imprison you in the clan and let you and Su Su leave, but now the result will be completely different...... Maybe...... It's much better than it is now...... "The old man's words were very slow, and his breath was extremely weak.." It's just ...... It's wrong, it's wrong, I ......"

"-poof!" She suddenly spurted out a large mouthful of blood, and the light in her eyes began to fade.

"Mother!

Chu Wenyuan hugged her and hugged her fiercely, the tears on his face mixed with snot, looking very sloppy.

"Ahem...... I...... I have something to say to you......"

The old man's voice was hoarse, and he leaned over, his ears close to the old man's lips.

......

......

A quarter of an hour later, the death knell of the Chu clan ancestral hall rang and spread in all directions......
