Zhang Yi listened very carefully and tried his best to write down every word Zhang Lingyun said.

Zhang Lingyun was very satisfied with Zhang Yi's attitude, and then said to him: "Now the situation on the mainland is surging, and there are crises everywhere, so you should be extra careful when you go to the Sea Soul Academy this time." Although the Sea Soul Academy is located in the center of the continent, it is the farthest away from our Huaye Empire, starting from Huaye, you must first pass through the two small vassal states of Jinming and Mingyue, and then pass through the Dongyou Swamp, one of the five fierce places on the mainland. I've been to the Eastern Swamp back then, and more than once, and it's definitely a Jedi.

On one occasion I led a small army to try to go deep into the heart of the Eastern Swamp to find the Snake Fruit, but we were just close to the edge of the core when we found the Snake Fruit. It was there that we encountered a seventh-level high-level demonic beast, the Purple Gold Giant Dragon, and it was not difficult to defeat a seventh-level high-level demonic beast with the strength of our squad. But the Eastern Swamp is the world of snakes and monsters. The Purple Gold Giant Snake relied on the favorable environment to entangle with us, and it was only about ten minutes before we were surrounded by all kinds of snake demonic beasts that heard the sound, although there were no seventh-level demonic beasts, there were dozens of fifth-level and sixth-level demonic beasts alone, and there were countless third- and fourth-level demonic beasts. In the end, although we obtained the Youlan Snake Fruit, it was a painful victory at the cost of all the sacrifices of our team except for me and your Uncle Xiao. Your Uncle Xiao and I are also seriously injured, and it is our lives to escape back. It's just that I'm sorry for the brothers who were born and died with me, I couldn't even bring out their corpses and be in that place of death forever. Speaking of this, Zhang Lingyun couldn't help but feel a little sad.

On the side, Zhang Yi listened attentively, what five forbidden places, what purple gold giant dragons, don't say to see it, he has never heard of it, and now it is rising, Zhang Lingyun is depressed because he remembered the sad past, and he no longer talked about it, although Zhang Yi was eager to learn, he did not dare to urge Zhang Lingyun, so he could only sit aside and wait quietly.

Zhang Lingyun didn't wait too long for Zhang Yi, sorted out his emotions a little and then said to Zhang Yi: "Although you have to pass through the Dongyou Swamp this time, you won't pass through the area I have been to, I have chosen a safe route for you, as long as you don't deviate too far from the route, you won't encounter any danger, even if you encounter some trouble, your current strength is enough to solve it." But in case you encounter some more powerful magical beasts, you can dodge them, try not to clash with them, if you really encounter a situation that you can't avoid, then you must fight quickly, and you must not drag the mud and water. ”

Zhang Yi hurriedly nodded yes, and when Zhang Yi wanted to continue, Zhang Yi finally couldn't help but ask Zhang Lingyun curiously: "Father, how did you and Uncle Xiao escape from the Dongyou Swamp back then?

You can't blame Zhang Yi for being curious, after all, Zhang Yi is still young, and besides, what boy doesn't like those bloody legendary adventure stories. What's more, the Zhang family is a martial family, and Zhang Yi, who is the queen of the generals, has a soft spot for this.

Zhang Lingyun didn't want to mention the sad past again, but since he had already said something, it didn't matter if Zhang Yi was curious to tell him.

"We didn't kill the Purple Gold Giant Beast, as a seventh-level high-level Demonic Beast, the Purple Gold Giant Python is also the top existence among the seventh-level Demonic Beasts. Not only does it have great power, but it also has agile speed. The attack of the water attribute combined with the poison of the worm would not dare to fight it even if it was at the peak of the seventh level, and the advantage of the terrain he also occupied could almost exert the strength of the eighth level of the demonic beast on its main battlefield. Otherwise, we wouldn't be entangled in it and unable to get out. ”

"Since it's not dead, how can it let you and my Uncle Xiao escape?"

Zhang Lingyun fell into memories again at this time, and did not directly answer Zhang Yi's question, as if talking to himself: "Of course it was not so easy to get out, we were deeply trapped by the beasts back then, but if we broke through and escaped immediately, at least a large part of the people would survive, but I didn't choose to evacuate, so ......" Zhang Lingyun was a little choked up when he mentioned the sadness.

What's going on? How can those people's deaths still have something to do with their fathers? Thinking of this, regardless of whether Zhang Lingyun was sad or not, he asked: "Then why didn't you withdraw at that time, the Youlan Snake Fruit is so heavy, or is it worth sacrificing so many lives? Why on earth?"

Zhang Yi was also a little excited at this time, he couldn't understand that knowing that many people would die, his father would insist on forcibly taking the Youlan Snake Fruit. He knew that his father was not the kind of person who exchanged the lives of his subordinates for his own interests, Zhang Lingyun loved soldiers like a son, and treated his subordinate officers as brothers in the army, and everyone knew that Zhang Yi had always regarded his father as an idol, so he believed that his father would never do such a thing that disregarded the lives of his subordinates.

Zhang Lingyun's voice trembled a little, "The Youlan Snake Fruit is very important, because it is used to save your mother's life. ”

Zhang Yi, who was shocked, stood up directly and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with my mother? Why does it still have anything to do with her? What the hell is going on? Tell me quickly." Zhang Yi grabbed Zhang Lingyun's shoulder, very eager to know what happened.

Zhang Lingyun waved his hand, signaling Zhang Yi to be calm. Zhang Yi put down his hands and waited for Zhang Lingyun to speak.

"Don't be in a hurry to listen to me tell you slowly, your mother was poisoned by a worm back then, and she had to use the Orchid Snake Fruit that was associated with the Purple Gold Giant Snake to save her life, so I took my elite to go deep into the Dongyou Swamp to find it. When we encountered the siege of the beasts, I knew that this Youlan snake fruit could not be obtained, although I was unwilling, but still ordered to retreat. But at that time, Uncle Xiao refused, because he was already lucky to be able to find the Youlan Snake Fruit on the periphery of the center, and if he gave up this opportunity, he had to enter the core area to find it. In that case, we can say that there is no chance at all, and your mother will have to wait for the poison to die. And at that time, my brother also expressed his willingness to fight, and at that time, I also agreed to save your mother. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Lingyun paused, adjusted his breathing, and continued: "If I could have insisted on the decision to retreat at that time, those people would not have died, until now I regret it, although I love your mother deeply, but in exchange for so many young and fresh lives, I would rather give up your mother." Your mother still doesn't know what happened back then, and you don't tell her, otherwise I'm not afraid she won't accept it, you know!"

Zhang Yi nodded in understanding.

"As for how you and I came back alive, Uncle Xiao and I also managed to get the Youlan Snake Fruit. It's because you entangled the Purple Gold Giant Snake at the cost of Uncle Xiao's burning Origin Fighting Qi, and stabbed the Purple Gold Giant Snake's right eye. I took the opportunity to obtain the Orchid Snake Fruit. At that time, your Uncle Xiao was already a middle-level Dou Sheng, and his cultivation was one level higher than mine, and it was precisely because he burned the Origin Dou Qi and injured the power of the Origin that your Uncle Xiao could only stop at the Dou Sect in this life. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yi's face was also full of gloom, he knew that for a cultivator, pursuing the Fighting God was every cultivator's ultimate dream, and he was even willing to pay the price of his life for such a dream. And Xiao Jin is still so talented, it is only a matter of time before he becomes a fighting god. Now he can only stop at Dou Zong, and it is hard to imagine how big the blow will be to him.

Zhang Lingyun sighed again, today may be the day he has sighed the most in his life so far.

"Your Uncle Xiao has paid a lot to me and our Zhang family, I have always felt very ashamed of him, I hope you can help my father repay this kindness in the future. ”

Zhang Lingyun said this, which made Zhang Yi feel very surprised, and couldn't help asking: "I really want to repay Uncle Xiao, he was so good to me when I was young, but how can I repay it? I can't help at all. ”

Zhang Lingyun shook his head, "What you said is not right, you can't help now, but you may be able to help in the future, I heard that there is a kind of strange fruit on the mainland called "Nine Turns and Returning to Life Fruit", which has the effect of life and death, flesh and bones, and no longer talks about treating the wounds of the origin." If you can achieve something in the future, I want you to go to the mainland and look for it. Originally, I wanted to go by myself, but I didn't have enough strength before, but now that I have the strength, it's true that the empire is going to war, and I can't get out at all. So in the future, if you have the opportunity, you must help me find the ninth turn and return the fruit. You just treat him as an agreement between men......"

As soon as Zhang Yi heard that it was an agreement between men, he immediately nodded his head in agreement, but asked Zhang Lingyun with some doubts: "But why don't you ask your grandfather and second grandfather for help, they are all strong people at the level of fighting gods! ”

"If I could use them, I would have gone a long time ago, your second grandfather is free and easy by nature, and I haven't seen him for more than ten years. Your grandfather has been sitting in the Zhang family and can't leave easily, and he doesn't know how long it will take to find the fruit of the ninth turn, so he can't go to the old man's house either. ”

Zhang Yi understood the reason for the matter, and immediately patted his chest and said: "Then leave this matter to me, if I can Zhang Yi is willing to gamble his life to complete it, this is an agreement between our men." ”

Zhang Lingyun patted Zhang Yi on the shoulder and said happily: "It is worthy of being my Zhang Lingyun's son, to do things is to be responsible, our Zhang family has always had clear grievances, and you will repay Uncle Xiao's kindness to our Zhang family." But don't rush for quick success, it's not easy to get such magical things, unless you are absolutely sure, you must not rush to find it, you know?"

Seeing Zhang Lingyun so happy, Zhang Yi was also very happy, so he nodded in agreement, he also knew that with his current strength, he would not be able to get it even if he knew where the Nine Turns Fruit was.

However, he suddenly remembered that there was another very important question that he didn't ask, so he said to Zhang Lingyun: "How could my mother get poisoned by a worm back then? You haven't told me yet......
