The cloud curtain on the top of the eagle sorrowful cliff hangs low, and the night sky is like a huge black curtain, covering the four fields tightly, and the cliff top is pitch black.

Zhou Huaixuan's eyes are unusual and can see clearly in the dark.

He was hidden in the trees, his eyes like eagle falcons, and he was firmly watching Zhou Chengzong's every move on the top of the cliff in front of him.

Zhou Chengzong's attention was entirely focused on the shrubs on the edge of the cliff.

He crouched on the top of the cliff, propped up on the edge of the cliff with one hand, and slowly descended with the other. He tried to keep his eyes open, trying to see what was going on on the bush.

But the night was so thick and so dark that his eyes were so wide that he could see a little bit of the bush in vague detail.

It's March now, and the bush has sprouted new shoots, and it looks much smaller than it was a decade ago.

Zhou Chengzong pursed his lips and leaned forward again, so that he could go deeper.

Sure enough, there was nothing on the bushes.

After so many years, even if the child is held up by this shrub, will it still fall after so many years of wind and rain?

The kid ...... The kid ......

Zhou Chengzong slowly straightened up from the top of the cliff and pursed his lips, the expression on his face was extremely solemn and resolute. He sighed, took out an iron claw hat from his waist, threw it in the air, threw it at the bottom of the cliff, stuck to the cliff, tightened it, and then grabbed the rope of the iron claw hat himself, and jumped down violently.

Zhou Huaixuan, who was hidden in the woods, was shocked, ran a few steps ahead, cautiously came to the edge of the cliff, lay on the ground, and slowly moved forward. Look down the cliffs.

He saw Zhou Chengzong leaning against the iron claw. Walk straight up and down the cliff like flying. Fly down like a flight.

Soon Zhou Chengzong's figure was gone.

Zhou Huaixuan silently stepped back, returned to the jungle where he was hidden just now, leaned his back against a big tree as thick as two people, looked up at the starry night sky emerging from the branches and leaves of the trees, his long eyebrows frowned, and unspeakable pain flashed in his eyes that were always indifferent and indifferent.

Minutes and seconds passed, and there was silence on the top of the cliff. Even the mountain breeze seems to have stopped blowing, the forest leaves are quiet, and the years are silent.

Zhou Chengzong finally went down to the bottom of the cliff, and as soon as he stepped on the flat ground, he half-knelt down and fell on the ground to gasp.

Looking back, the cliff behind him was towering into the sky, and he actually jumped down with all his might!

Despite the help of Iron Claw, he was exhausted.

Finally rested, Zhou Chengzong took out a fire fold from his arms. Shook it in the wind.

The fire flipped and lit up, illuminating the bottom of the cliff that was so dark that it was impossible to see.

Zhou Chengzong's face was solemn. Slowly look from the place near the edge of the cliff, and measure the past step by step, for fear of missing any clues.

The bottom of the cliff seems to have not been visited for many years, and the ground is covered with thick fallen leaves and dead branches, and there are many animal corpses that have decomposed, emitting a strange smell.

Zhou Chengzong was busy holding his breath, holding up the fire fold, and carefully investigated.

It didn't take long for him to see the bones of some people.

There are adults, there are children, some can still see human form, and some have been scattered in all directions, as if they have been torn apart by some ferocious animal.

Zhou Chengzong held his breath and slowly rummaged through the pile of bones.

Finally he found the skeleton of a small baby, about the size of the child he remembered.

Looking at the small skeleton, an unspeakable sadness suddenly rose in Zhou Chengzong's heart.

Moving the small skeleton to a relatively flat stone not far away, Zhou Chengzong continued to search.

He had exhausted five fires before he had searched the entire bottom of the cliff, convinced that only this skeleton belonged to the baby.

Zhou Chengzong breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and walked back to the big stone where he had just placed the bones.

He stared at the baby's bones silently for a moment, then bent his legs, knelt down, and kowtowed to the baby's bones three times in succession, "Child...... Don't blame us...... If there is an afterlife, you find a good person to reincarnate ......"

Standing up from the ground, Zhou Chengzong slowly put his hand into his arms and took out a small jade-like thing.

If Zhou Huaixuan followed, he would see that this thing in Zhou Chengzong's hand was almost exactly the same as the bloodstone he had seen in the Sheng family at the beginning! It seems to be a small piece broken from the same stone......

Zhou Chengzong pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist with his other hand and stabbed it at the baby's leg bone.

He picked out a little bit of dried bone marrow from his leg bone and smeared it on the small piece of jade.

Then he held the jade in his right hand and looked at it with a nervous expression.

Time seemed to stand still around him, and it seemed to pass as fast as water.

He couldn't remember how much time had passed, but he couldn't see anything out of the ordinary.

The jade lay quietly in the palm of his hand, and there was nothing wrong with it......

Zhou Chengzong's face changed from calm and solemn, slowly became surprised and confused, and gradually became frightened again, his brain stopped thinking, and the whole person was as cold as falling into an ice cellar!

His whole body trembled, and his upper and lower teeth rattled.

Whew!

Finally, a wolf howl came from the mountain, waking up the two people who were deep in thought at the top of the cliff and at the bottom of the cliff.

Zhou Chengzong looked up at the cliff, threw his right hand forward, this time threw out the iron claw hat, tied it tightly on the cliff, climbed the rope of the iron claw hat with both hands, and quickly climbed to the cliff.

Xu was holding his breath, and the time it took him to go up was faster than when he went down the cliff.

Returning to the top of the cliff again, he stood on the highest point in a daze, listening to the sound of the wind slowly passing by his ears, looking at the world in front of him, but there was no place for him!

The mountain wind gradually rose, and it seemed to blow away the floating clouds in the sky.

The curved moon rings were revealed, and thousands of moonlight sprinkled on the top of the cliff of the eagle's sorrowful stream.

Zhou Huaixuan poked his head out from behind the big tree, silently looked at the tall figure in front of him, and slowly raised the crossbow in his hand.

His eyes were full of tears, reflecting the moonlight in the sky, but he held back so strongly that the tears did not fall.

Zhou Chengzong tilted his head slightly at the top of the cliff, revealing half of his cheeks under the moonlight.

Zhou Huaixuan was stunned.

He saw that Zhou Chengzong's face was full of tears.

Zhou Chengzong, who has always been a strict father in front of him, actually had tears on his face!

Zhou Chengzong took a deep breath. Trembling and raising his hands. Cover your face. Slowly knelt down at the top of the cliff.

He didn't cry, but his shoulders shook uncontrollably, revealing his pain and sorrow.

Zhou Huaixuan saw this scene, squinted his eyes, pursed his lips, and lowered the crossbow in his hand again, without aiming at Zhou Chengzong again.

Whew!

Another wolf howl came.

There are many wolves on the eagle stream, Zhou Chengzong knows, and Zhou Huaixuan also knows. But none of them moved. No one paid any attention.

Sou!

A wild wolf rushed over from the other side of the cliff and pounced on Zhou Chengzong, who was kneeling down on the top of the cliff.

Zhou Huaixuan was taken aback, and was about to rush out regardless of a qiē, when he saw Zhou Chengzong not looking back, his right hand was raised like lightning, and the cold light in his hand flashed, cutting the wild wolf in half.

In the end, it is a god general, even if the mind does not belong, it is not something that a wild wolf can deal with.

Zhou Huaixuan, who was behind the woods, once again slowly raised the crossbow in his hand and aimed it at Zhou Chengzong.

After Zhou Chengzong killed the wolf. Still haven't looked back.

He knelt on the top of the cliff and looked up at the half moonlight in the sky. I cried heartbreakingly.

He was so desperate, so painful, that his voice was like a cuckoo crying blood, and the mountain ape was wailing, and he heard all the birds that stayed in the forest all flying.

The wind grew stronger and stronger as the eagle went up the stream, whistling and carrying his cry into the distance......

Zhou Huaixuan quietly looked at the back of Zhou Chengzong kneeling on the cliff, listened to his uncontrollable cry in pain, and finally lowered his eyes, and once again put down the crossbow in his hand.

He hung the crossbow on his waist, turned around and bowed down, taking advantage of the whistling mountain wind and the pain of Zhou Chengzong in front of him, he quietly left the cliff of the eagle's sorrowful stream and went to the family temple of the Divine General's Mansion.

……

In the family temple of the Shenjiang Mansion, Zhou Yanli finally saw a person from outside, and pulled Aunt Yue to talk all night, until it was almost dawn, and then she said unsatisfied: "Auntie, where is Dad?" I still want to talk to my dad. Auntie, I miss you, I miss you so much......"

Aunt Yue was worried all night, and when she saw that Zhou Yanli was fine, her tense spirit relaxed, and her sleepiness struck, and she drooped her eyelids and said, "...... Your father is talking to the host, let's call him tomorrow. As he spoke, he wanted to lie on the side of Zhou Yanli's bed and fall asleep.

Zhou Yanli smiled, pushed Aunt Yue, and said, "Auntie, don't sleep like this." Let's go over there and sleep on the couch. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the oil lamp in her room suddenly went out.

Zhou Yanli's heart tightened, and she secretly screamed that it was not good, so she quickly bent down, hugged Aunt Yue, and quickly rolled off the bed.

As soon as she rolled out of bed, she heard a few swishing sounds like the release of a crossbow, and nailed it to the place where Aunt Yue was lying just now!

"Who?! There are assassins! There are assassins! Zhou Yanli lay on the ground tightly, pressed on Aunt Yue, hid her under herself, and grabbed a chair to block her head while screaming.

Sure enough, the sneak attackers outside heard her voice, and there were several more swishing sounds, and Zheng Zheng stabbed them all to the place where they were hiding.

"Ahh Aunt Yue suddenly let out a short and sharp scream, rolled her eyes up, and fainted in pain.

"Auntie? Aunt? What's wrong with you?! ”

Zhou Yanli's scream was so sharp and sharp that it suddenly woke up the secret guard Mingwei in the family temple.

Countless complicated footsteps rushed towards this side.

As soon as Zhou Chengzong returned to the family temple, he heard the strangeness inside, and immediately rushed over, but before he could see the figure of a man in black flickering in front of him and disappearing.

The secret guards of the family temple chased them out.

"Stop!" Zhou Chengzong said in a deep voice, "No need to chase. ”

"My lord! That person just tried to sneak attack the third girl and Aunt Yue! The guards of the family temple hurriedly came over and saluted, "We can catch up!" There was only one man! ”

"I said no, I just don't need it!" Zhou Chengzong shouted angrily, "Don't you even listen to me?!" ”

"Don't dare!" The guards hurriedly bowed their heads and retreated.

"Aren't you afraid of falling for someone else's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain?" Zhou Chengzong said majestically, "Go back!" Get back to your place! ”

The guards hurriedly bowed down and retreated like flowing water.

Zhou Chengzong strode towards Zhou Yanli's house.

"Yanli, are you alright?" Zhou Chengzong patted the door at the door.

Hearing that it was Zhou Chengzong's voice, Zhou Yanli cried out loud, got up from the ground, leaned against the wall, trembled to the door, and opened the door.

"Daddy!" Zhou Yanli threw herself into Zhou Chengzong's arms and cried bitterly, "Auntie...... My aunt is hurt! ”

Zhou Chengzong pursed his lips, gently pushed Zhou Yanli away, and strode into the house, "Let me see." ”

Zhou Yanli wiped her tears, followed in, and turned the oil lamp back on.

The mess in the house surprised Zhou Yanli.

The edge of her bed, and the ground where they were hiding just now, were full of thinly cut branches!

Those weapons flying in the air were not crossbow arrows, but thin branches!

Zhou Yanli's face changed.

The man obviously had a crossbow, but instead of crossbow arrows, he used improvised sharpened branches, which shows that the man was meticulous and meticulous, and refused to leave any clues! It also shows that the person's force value is terrifyingly high, and it has reached the point where flying flowers and picking leaves can hurt people!

"Dad, my aunt seems to be hurt." Zhou Yanli walked to Aunt Yue who fainted with tears.

I saw that Aunt Yue's calf was nailed to the ground by a thin branch and pierced through it!

"Auntie!" Zhou Yanli's face changed drastically, and she knelt down beside Aunt Yue all of a sudden, stretched out her hand, trembling and trying to pull the branch out of Aunt Yue's calf.

As soon as she exerted a little force, she found that it was not good, the branch went straight through Aunt Yue's calf bone and was firmly nailed to the ground!

"Daddy! Auntie's legs! Auntie's legs! Zhou Yanli cried all of a sudden, can't her aunt's leg be saved?

Zhou Chengzong also walked over, half-squatted down, looked at the branch, pursed his lips, stretched out his hand, and pulled out the branch with a little luck.

"Ahh Aunt Yue screamed and woke up in pain, and the piercing pain in her legs made her really unbearable, so she rolled her eyes up again and fainted again.

A large black hole appeared in her calf, and the blood was pouring down, and soon the blue and blue dress of Aunt Yue turned dark red.

Zhou Chengzong tore off a piece of the edge of the robe, bandaged Aunt Yue's calf, and then held her up: "I'll take her back to see Langzhong." ”

"Daddy! Take me back with you! I'm going to take care of my aunt! Zhou Yanli grabbed Zhou Chengzong's arm, "Dad! Someone is going to kill me! You can't put me here anymore! ”

Zhou Chengzong pursed his lips and said in a deep voice: "Your grandfather said that you can't go back until your sister-in-law gives birth to you." You're still staying here for a few more months. ”

"But...... But...... What if the Assassin returns? Zhou Yanli's eyes widened in fear, "I'm afraid...... Dad, I'm scared! ”

"No, it won't. I will send more guards here to protect you, that person will not dare to come again......" Zhou Chengzong said with a pale face.
