On February 15, on Xihuang Mountain, the scenery of the past is no longer there, and it is full of bleak and empty nests. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Since Ji Yuan and Lan Chen decided to follow the advice of the Jade Tower and temporarily abandon Xihuang Mountain half a month ago, Ji Yuan officially ordered all the disciples of the Soul Sect to go down the mountain one after another. In order to cover that the disciples of the Soul Sect would have enough time to leave, Ji Yuan and Lan Chen worked day and night with a group of Soul Sect cronies to start a bloody battle with the masters of various sects who had been constantly attacking the mountain gate for half a month. In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and the eight thousand disciples of the Soul Sect are also fleeing in secret, and now there are less than 100 people left, including Ji Yuan and Lan Chen. It is reported that the Xuanzong men of Dongfang Su will arrive soon, so at noon today, Ji Yuan and Lan Chen will lead the core men and horses such as Lu Wencai, Mo Bai, Wu Mei, Su Yingying, Ah Chang, and Xiao Fluttershy to leave Xihuang Mountain in the last group. And the people who came to meet them today were Xie Yun and Yin Xi, who had already secretly settled in the Western Imperial City.

The main hall of the Soul Sect is now depressed, because no one has taken care of it for a long time, so at this moment, all parts of the hall are already full of dust, tables, chairs and benches are crooked, and the valuable decorations and gold, silver and jade in the hall have also been secretly taken away by some greedy Soul Sect disciples before going down the mountain, this kind of thing not only happens in the main hall of the Soul Sect, but happens in all corners of the West Emperor Mountain. Ji Yuan and Lan Chen just turned a blind eye to this, after all, they thought that they owed these Soul Sect disciples too much, and now they didn't even have the ability to protect them, so when they left, let them take away some valuable things, and being able to support their families in the future was also the last compensation that the Soul Sect could do for these disciples.

At noon, Ji Yuan and Lan Chen personally bid farewell to the last group of disciples who were about to leave in the hall, these more than 100 disciples are the core elite of the Soul Sect, they have escaped death on the battlefield for a long time, and they have sworn to follow Ji Yuan and Lan Chen back to life from the pile of dead people for more than a month, and the blood under the sword light and sword shadow does not know how much blood has flowed but has never said a word. When they were about to be separated today, these iron-clad Soul Sect men couldn't help but shed tears that they hadn't seen for a long time.

"Wolf King, I can't bear to ...... in Xihuang Mountain" A big man with a figure like an iron tower was holding a bloodstained big ring knife in his hand, standing in front of Ji Yuan with a sad face and crying bitterly, just an hour ago he had just carried this knife Although Ji Yuan repelled a group of Cangshan Sect people who came to provoke, these days he has always been the most brave and invincible one when he charges with Ji Yuan, and the scars on his body today are his most powerful achievements in this month.

Ji Yuan stared at the big man with red eyes, endured the tears in his eyes, squeezed out a free and easy smile at the corner of his mouth, reached out and smashed the big man's chest with a heavy fist, and said: "On the day when we meet again sooner or later, what does your nine-foot-tall man look like when he cries? Don't cry!" After that, Ji Yuan also reached out and wiped a handful of tears from the corner of the big man's eyes, but this action made the big man cry more and more.

"We fought with them, and the disciples of the Soul Sect are not afraid of death!"

"Yes, we are not afraid of death!"

"Wolf King, Dragon King, the Sect Master will definitely come back, we are willing to fight for the last breath and wait until the Sect Master returns!"

"We're not leaving, we're going to stay and die with the gang of thieves below. ”

......

For a while, the heroes in the hall were furious, and these wounded Soul Sect disciples were loyal one after another, and they couldn't wait to prove their heroism and fearlessness to Ji Yuan and Lan Chen.

"!" Today, Lan Chen is much more rational than Ji Yuan, there are no tears in his eyes, and there is no sadness on his face, I saw him suddenly snort coldly, glared at everyone in the hall, and said coldly, "You think that if you stay now, you are heroes? In fact, they are all bears! Do you know how many sects have gathered under the Xihuang Mountain at this moment? How many people and horses are there? Do you think you can defeat ten with one? In fact, even if you can defeat one against a thousand today, it is useless, and the result is still a dead end." The reason why those tiger wolves under the mountain still didn't rush up and kill us was not because they were afraid of us, but because they were waiting for someone, and that person was Dongfang Su, who was almost wiped out by us. ”

Lan Chen's words plunged the hall into silence, and everyone was silent with red eyes.

"The winner is the king, the loser is Kou, the mountains and rivers take turns, you have forgotten how our Soul Sect suppressed Xuanzong when it was in full swing? And how did Dongfang Su choose to fight us at that time?" Lan Chen continued, "Dongfang Su chose to fight with us? No! Because Dongfang Su knows the truth that the green mountains are not afraid of no firewood, how can Dongfang Su understand the truth? Even the old dog of Dongfang Su has made a comeback one day, what are you afraid of? What are you afraid of? Do you think that if you leave Xihuang Mountain today, everything will be over? No, when he waits for the sect master to return, he will order all of you people to come back to serve me, and no one will be allowed to coax me at that time!"

"That's good!" Ji Yuan echoed, "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, if we all die here today, then when the sect master comes back, who will help him make a comeback?"

Lan Chen glanced at everyone in the hall and said faintly: "Now that our Soul Sect has become the target of everyone, if we abandon it, we will abandon it, it is just a name and a West Emperor Mountain, is it so important? As long as the people are still there, the Soul Sect will never fall!"

"We're not afraid of death!" someone in the crowd interjected, "we dare ......"

"I know you're not afraid of death, but it's far more difficult to find a way to survive today than to die without knowing it. ”

Suddenly, a cold voice suddenly sounded outside the hall gate, and then I saw Xie Yun walking in quickly with Yin Xi. As soon as Yin Xi entered the door, he quickly said to Ji Yuan and Lan Chen: "The city is ready, you can leave at any time!" I see that the group of dog offal below has begun to move a little, we need to move faster. ”

Ji Yuan nodded slightly, and then looked at Xie Yun, whose face was full of vicissitudes, and the two looked at each other with a faint grief in their eyes. Xie Yun said to the Soul Sect disciple in the hall, Zhengse: "I escaped back from the junction of the ice fields, but this does not mean that I am afraid of death, if I am afraid of death, then I will not appear here today! At this time, it is easy to want to die, rush down the mountain and die in an instant, the more we must live, because only if we live, our enemies will toss and turn and stay awake all night, we have to stare at them in the dark, as long as they have the slightest flaw, we will immediately rush up and break them into pieces, we let them never sleep peacefully from today, and only alive can they have a chance for revenge. ”

Hearing Xie Yun's reprimand, all the Soul Sect disciples in the hall slowly lowered their heads with their fists clenched.

"Okay, there are enough coils for each of you outside the hall, let's sneak down from the back mountain with them!" Ji Yuan said lightly, "Remember to live well in the future, no matter what, you must not be rash." ”

Then, under the urging of Lan Chen and Yin Xi, the disciples of the Soul Sect in the hall said goodbye to Ji Yuan one by one with a depressed face, and then left the main hall of the Soul Sect one after another.

As soon as these Soul Sect disciples left, the huge Xihuang Mountain was completely empty. Ji Yuan and Xie Yun stood in the hall and looked at everything in the hall stupidly, their eyes vaguely reminiscent of the scene of Lu Yifan talking and laughing with the elders of the Soul Sect, the Dharma Protector and all the disciples in this hall in the past, and their ears seemed to reverberate with their laughter and laughter again. All this was fleeting, and when Ji Yuan and Xie Yun gradually woke up from their memories, their eyes were involuntarily moist.

The once prosperous has become today's bleak and lonely, the once bustling has become today's emptiness, everything seems to have happened yesterday, and the memory is still vivid.

"Sooner or later, one day we will be back!" Xie Yun's sad eyes were mixed with anger, he clutched the cloud piercing gun tightly, and said word by word, "Sooner or later!"

"Sect Master, doesn't he have any news yet?" asked Ji Yuan softly without looking back, his voice sounding extremely tired.

Ji Yuan's words made Xie Yun's expression darken suddenly, and he silently shook his head and said, "Since we were separated at the junction of the ice fields, I have never heard from the sect master. Then Xie Yun changed his words and asked, "Ji Yuan, what are you going to do next?"

"I want to go to the northern frontier to find the suzerain. Ji Yuan said hesitantly.

"No!" Xie Yun shook his head resolutely, "Now in the northern frontier, not only are the emperor's soldiers and horses and the sect masters of the Holy Domain looking for the whereabouts of the sect master, but also a large number of masters from the beast domain are also chasing and killing the sect master everywhere, it seems that the beast domain has counted Feng Chenghuang's death on the head of the sect master, all of this is Su Xie's conspiracy......"

"Xie Yun. Ji Yuan suddenly interrupted Xie Yun's words, he turned around slowly, his eyes were filled with tears, Xie Yun couldn't help but be stunned, and before Xie Yun could open his mouth to ask Ji Yuan, he suddenly asked, "What do you think...... A Fanta...... Are you still alive?"

Ji Yuan's words made Xie Yun's face change suddenly, although they had always believed in front of others that Lu Yifan would come back sooner or later, and they did not allow anyone to spread the news of Lu Yifan's death. But in fact, they didn't think so in their own hearts, after all, two and a half months have passed now, because of the matter at the junction of the ice fields, the pattern of the entire Five Domains has undergone great changes, and the Holy Domain is even more upside down because of this incident, and Lu Yifan, who is the target of everyone, has never seen anyone alive or dead for such a long time, and no one will believe this kind of thing.

"I ...... I don't know......" Xie Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The situation that day was really chaotic, at first I rushed out with Liu Meng and the fifth master among the tens of thousands of troops, and then the three of us were also broken up, now I know that Chu Ding and Luo Xiu died in battle, Yulou returned to the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, Mu Dan returned to the spiritual domain, Lu Wencai and A Chang returned to Xihuang Mountain, Brother Liu, Qin Qingyu and Miss Han went to Jinling City, and I didn't know anything about the news of the sect master, the fifth master, and Liu Meng. ”

"Brother Liu escaped from Jinling City. Ji Yuan said, "This was nearly a month ago, and if Brother Liu wants to return to Xihuang Mountain, it will be almost there." ”

"Brother Liu escaped?" Xie Yun asked in surprise, "What about Miss Han and Qin Qingyu?"

"Ling'er is still imprisoned in the Han Mansion, as for Qin Qingyu......" Ji Yuan's words couldn't help but darken his face at this point, and then two tears quietly slipped down the corners of his eyes, he didn't say any more, but Xie Yun had already understood everything from his two lines of clear tears.

"I didn't expect so many people to die on this trip to the Ice Field......" Xie Yun muttered to himself, "Su Xie's game really made the Soul Sect defeated, with heavy casualties......

"Let's not talk about it, let's go and hide in Yin Xi's tavern for a while. Ji Yuan took a deep breath and tried to calm his mood, "The more dangerous the place, the safer it is, now that our wanted notices are posted everywhere in the Holy Domain, it is not safe to go anywhere, not to mention that we have to take weak women like Yi'er and Yingying with us." Hearing Ji Yuan's words, Xie Yun couldn't help but nodded slightly, wanting to open his mouth to say something, but in the end, he only let out a helpless sigh.

"Ji Yuan, it's not good!"

Just as Ji Yuan and Xie Yun were about to turn around and leave the main hall of the Soul Sect, Wu Mei ran in in with a panicked face, looking at her pale face and frightened eyes, Ji Yuan and Xie Yun's hearts sank at the same time. Xie Yun asked in a condensed voice, "But Dongfang Su has arrived?"

"It's not ......" Wu Mei forcibly suppressed the panic in her heart, grabbed Ji Yuan's arm and hurriedly said, "Ji Yuan, come with me, Lu ...... Lu Wencai ......"

"What's wrong with Wencai?" Looking at Wu Mei, who was getting more and more panicked and busy, Ji Yuan also became anxious, "You say it slowly!"

"Lu Wencai committed suicide by hanging the beam!"

"What?"

As soon as Wu Mei's words came out, Ji Yuan and Xie Yun's faces changed at the same time, and then the two of them didn't wait for Wu Mei to explain, and they raised their feet and rushed towards the outside of the hall.

In the blink of an eye, Ji Yuan, Xie Yun, Wu Mei, and Lan Chen and Yin Xi, who rushed to Lu Wencai's room, rushed out of Lu Wencai's room, and before they could enter, the heartbroken cries of Yan Lingxuan, Ah Chang, and Fluttershy were the first to come out of the room. Hearing Yan Lingxuan's heart-rending cry, Ji Yuan, Xie Yun and the others were already dead in an instant, and they knew that they were still too late.

"Lu Wencai, you get up for me...... Open your eyes for me......" In the room, Yan Lingxuan sat on the ground and her tears flowed uncontrollably down like a long flood bursting the embankment, while beside her, Ah Chang and Xiao Fluttershy, whose faces were full of tears, were carefully supporting her, while Lu Sijun, who was still babbling, stood aside with a tense little face, his eyes were red but he didn't cry. And among these people with broken liver and intestines, it was Lu Wencai, who was bloodless and lifeless, who was lying down. At this moment, on the beam of the room, there is still a five-foot white silk that has just been cut off, and there is a round stool below that has just been kicked over by Lu Wencai.

"How...... How...... What's going on?" At this moment, Ji Yuan couldn't tell whether it was shock or pain, sadness or anger, he rushed to Lu Wencai's corpse with an arrow, his whole body was trembling violently, just last night Lu Wencai made a special trip to him for a long talk, and in the night talk between the two of them, Lu Wencai showed unprecedented calmness and solemnity, without the usual banter, There was no cowardice, no incoherentness, no words that did not reach the meaning, everything about Lu Wencai last night was extremely mature and dignified, and Lu Wencai did not even have a smile in their conversation. The words were full of self-blame and guilt, Lu Wencai repeatedly told Ji Yuan that he was a burden, not only harmed the Lu family, harmed Lu Yifan, but also harmed many innocent people to die in vain, he blamed all the evil consequences today on himself for Jiang Tianbao's conspiracy, if it wasn't for his greed to sign a cooperation contract with Jiang Tianbao, then Su Xie's conspiracy would not have succeeded smoothly at all, and it would not have been possible for so many things to happen later, there would be no negotiations at the junction of the ice fields, so many people would not have died, the people of the Lu family would not become sinners in the Holy Domain, Lu Yifan would not have life and death unknown, and the Han family would not have been implicated, the Soul Sect will not fall into the field that is about to overturn...... Although everything was not caused by Lu Wencai, it all started with his greed. In last night's long conversation, Ji Yuan repeatedly persuaded him with kind words, and sighed in his heart that Lu Wencai had indeed grown a lot through this incident, but he never thought that Lu Wencai, who had always been cheerful, would be so serious, and what he didn't expect was that Lu Wencai would choose to die to apologize for the world.

If it weren't for Lu Wencai being driven to a dead end, with his cynical and timid nature, he would never have chosen such a cruel ending of suicide. Who can imagine what kind of torture and hesitation Lu Wencai experienced in his heart before he died?

"This is a suicide note left by Wencai Gongzi. In the shock and grief of everyone, Su Yingying slowly walked up to Xie Yun with a letter and handed Lu Wencai's suicide note to Xie Yun who was at a loss. When Xie Yun opened the letter in front of everyone, there was self-blame and guilt between the lines, and until the moment he died, Lu Wen prayed for someone who could live to say "I'm sorry" to him when he saw Lu Yifan's descendants in the future. Lu Wencai didn't have the ability to find Jiang Tianbao to take revenge, he didn't have the face to face the living or dead people of the Soul Sect, and he had no shame to continue to live, so he chose to die to anger the grievances in his heart. And Lu Wencai's last request in the suicide note was to leave the body in Xihuang Mountain, and he wanted to use his undead soul as the dead brother of the Soul Sect to garrison Xihuang Mountain for Lu Yifan.

"Wencai is too stupid...... Ji Yuan silently shed tears and said weakly, "It's too stupid...... During this time, we have lost too many brothers and friends, and our enemies are all at large, but he chose to end his life early...... It's silly......"

"Xuanzong's people have arrived, and if we don't go down the mountain, we will really follow in the footsteps of Wencai. Yin Xi stared at a pair of red eyes, and said urgently with tears on his face, "We ......"

"Bury Wencai and the Lu family together, and we'll go down the mountain now!"

Ji Yuan had mixed feelings but he couldn't care about sadness at the moment, he ordered Yan Lingxuan, who was crying almost fainting, on his back to Wu Mei, and ordered Ah Chang and Yin Xi to go to the room to take away Ji Yi'er, who couldn't get out of bed, and he personally picked up Lu Wencai's corpse, and under the opening of Lan Chen and Xie Yun, the group hurriedly left Xihuang Mountain and headed towards the back mountain.

"Boom, click!"

The original bright sun was surging suddenly, with a shocking thunder, the dark clouds quickly gathered in the sky above Xihuang Mountain, and in the blink of an eye, the sky was dark and the rain was pouring, and in the sudden storm, the mountain gate of the Soul Sect was also broken by countless people from all walks of life, and the golden plaque of the Soul Sect was split into several sections by Dongfang Su's palm, and fell to the ground for thousands of people and horses to trample on. In the midst of the torrential wind and rain, the Xihuang Mountain was full of excited shouts and greedy snatching.

And also in the torrential rain, while Xihuang Mountain was being smashed, looted, and burned, Ji Yuandai, Xie Yun, Lan Chen and others were burying Lu Wencai's body at the foot of the back mountain. Listening to the cheers of the Xuanzong people on the mountain, they were standing in front of Lu Wencai's grave at this moment, everyone's eyes were filled with 10,000 indescribable feelings, the torrential rain drenched their bodies, and their faces had long been unable to distinguish where there were tears and where was rain.

"We ...... Let's go!" Xie Yun said tremblingly, and at his suggestion, Ji Yuan and the others stepped on the muddy mountain road under the torrential rain, and gradually moved away from the Xihuang Mountain, which had been completely overturned.

In the crowd that was gradually moving away, following Mo Bai, who was solemn and silent at the end, a bone-chilling cold light flashed in his red eyes, and then he turned around sharply while everyone was unprepared, and his thin figure quickly disappeared into the dense forest next to the mountain road.

......
