Chapter 979: Mourning is like death
"Stop!"
A surging energy struck the sharp knife, causing the sharp knife to move outward slightly for half a minute, and finally only scratched Xiao Yun's clothes a little.
Ruoruo didn't look back, she was waiting for the geist's explanation.
She knew very well that there was very little that could make the Four Heavenly Realms change their minds right now. After all, for them, except for Tang Xiaozhi, the lives of the other three people didn't matter at all.
"Mu Zheping is here. "The geist seems to have gotten the news of the outside world in some special way.
After all, he was originally the head of Shifang Lou in charge of intelligence.
His words shocked everyone in the room, and even Xiao Yun, who was already pale and crying in fright, stopped crying.
Mu Zheping is one of her closest people, especially in Mingcheng in the past two years, she has spent almost most of her time playing with him.
The little girl didn't know how strong Mu Zheping was, but after hearing this name, she inexplicably had a sense of dependence and stability in her heart.
She felt that the big brother who played with her all day long would definitely be able to save her, protect her, and help her teach these bad guys a hard lesson.
So she regained her courage, and even dared to puff out her cheeks and glared fiercely at Ruo Ruo and the Four Heavenly Realms.
"Alone?" said Remnant incredulously.
"Alone. The geist nodded cautiously, the juniors who could only be cautious in front of them in the past have now made them have to face the enemy.
Even if it's just to hear his name.
"He's, really, going back? Doesn't he know, what's waiting for him here? Is he crazy?" the fat manager looked incredulous.
The frowning eyebrows of the wandering soul gradually relaxed: "Perhaps, it's time for us to reassess this little girl's status in Mu Zheping's mind."
There seems to be only one reason why he will come back. ”
Ruoruo suddenly understood: "What do you mean......"
"Yes, whether Lin Si is dead or alive is still a question after all. But Mu Zheping can now be sure that he is alive, and we may be able to make one more deal. ”
"Use this little girl in exchange for the heavenly seal on Mu Zheping's body?"
"Whether he has a heavenly seal, I'm not sure. But at least, he should know the Heavenly Seal cultivation method. The geist nodded, and then his face changed: "He's coming this way, he seems to know that we're here!"
"What about the masters in the city?" Evil Bone blurted out.
He was not very afraid of those sect masters, although they were extremely powerful. But Shifanglou is an organization that walks underground.
Those people, they don't even know who they are. What's more, those people were here for Lin Munie and the three of them, and Shifang Lou was not their target.
But Mu Zheping was different, he knew what they looked like, and knew the location of the Eight Branches and the headquarters of the Shifang Building.
At this moment, he finally felt extremely dangerous.
"Kill the two big ones, leave the two small ones, and get out of here. The geist said quickly.
Two bloody rays flashed, Tang's father and Tang's mother's chest were already red with blood, and the two fell down without a sound.
Ruoruo withdrew the sharp knife, and Tang Xiaozhi's mournful cry sounded in the cellar.
But then, she and Xiaoyun both fainted.
The wandering spirit and the others are still a step slower after all. When they carried Tang Xiaozhi and Xiaoyun out of the cellar, twenty zhang away, there was already a thin figure standing.
His not-so-long black hair had turned grayish-white, and his face was so thick with a 'dead air' that Ruoruo almost didn't recognize him.
Behind him was already full of people standing on the left and right, all of whom were foreign masters who had arrived in the city today.
The appearance of Lu Si of the Supreme Cloud Realm, Wuhua of Baiyun Dao, Xuanming, the master of the Infinite Palace, Qin Lie of the Bilan Empire, Shen Hong of the Shenyan Empire, and the later stages of the five Heavenly Realms made the Four Heavenly Realms gasp.
And in addition to these people, they also saw at least thirty-seven or eight Heavenly Realm masters, and as for the Breaking Realm, they had already filled the rooftops of the nearby houses.
He's finished......
If you yourself and others crash headlong into such an occasion, it may all become the same danger.
Finally, at a certain moment, the white-haired young man in the audience finally opened his mouth to break the peace.
"You guys are really capable......"
His voice was unhurried, but the ruthlessness revealed in the low voice could be heard by anyone.
And the wandering soul and the others understood that what he was referring to was the fact that the four of them held Fang Jiayun hostage.
Looking at the eyes that had lost their former luster but were full of will to die, at a certain moment, the Four Heavenly Realms even regretted being involved in this incident.
......
Mu Zheping only woke up from the scorched mountain forest today, and before that, he was sleeping deeply. At that time, the master who besieged him had already abandoned that area and chose Mingcheng as a breakthrough.
Mingcheng is their base camp, and sooner or later they will return here, this is the judgment of some.
Mu Zheping was awakened by the rumbling sound of horses' hooves and footsteps, and there were almost thousands of troops and horses passing by in the distance.
And when he floated up from the ground, what he saw was indeed a thousand troops.
The 300,000 army led by Ye Hong was marching towards Mingcheng, and Gu Yuda, Meng Zhen, Fan Xing, Jiang Qi and other generals of the Northern Army were also among them.
Although they were extremely far away, Mu Zheping couldn't see their faces clearly, but he recognized the huge moon flag, so he quickly ran towards them.
But he had only rushed two miles before he suddenly stopped.
On the charred ground lay a scarred corpse.
When he saw the full head of white hair, his heart jumped involuntarily, and he trembled and gently straightened the corpse with both hands, and then he saw Rong Yu's dead face.
The army in the distance seemed to have spotted him, and some people began to ride in this direction, but they were no longer able to impress him in the slightest.
He sat on the ground and hugged his already cooled body, and suddenly realized that he couldn't even cry bitterly. His own body trembled unconsciously......
In this world, among the people he cares about the most, in addition to Lin Si, they are Rong Yu and Fang Jiayun.
Fang Yu had the grace of recreation for him, if it weren't for him, Mu Zheping would not only not be able to cultivate, but would have died long ago. Lin Si didn't have any feelings for Fang Yu, but Mu Zheping was extremely grateful to him.
Therefore, for his daughter, Mu Zheping regarded him as his own from the beginning. In the past few years, getting along has deepened this relationship. Although she calls herself Brother Mu, in Mu Zheping's heart, she is no different from her daughter.
And Rong Yu, who is inseparable from Fang Jiayun, is the one who treats Mu Zhe as if he were his own.
He experienced a strong sense of love in Rong Yu, although he was not a father and son, he was better than a father and son.
His laughter, his rebuke, and his praise are still vivid in his eyes and in his ears......
And right now, Rong Yu's body is right in front of him. He didn't even know when he died or who he died in.
What he knew was that Rong Yu must be worried about himself, otherwise he wouldn't have come here for no reason. And the murderer must be the group of people who hunted down him.
There was a strong sense of remorse in his heart, why did he keep hiding here?
Uncle Rong, at that time, he was actually fighting not far from his side!
Ah, yes, forbearance, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, plan and then think twice before acting......
That's what I thought from the beginning, and a lot of times, that's what I did.
So now, Uncle Rong was killed.
If he hadn't hidden here, there wouldn't be so many people here, there wouldn't have been this fire, and Uncle Rong wouldn't have been attracted.
He was desperate to kill himself, and he hugged him tightly, as if he wanted to wake him up, as if he wanted to be one with him.
I don't know how long it took, but there were many people around him.
Ye Hong, Gu Yuda, Fan Xing and others all appeared beside him. After seeing this scene, everyone could only be silent.
Holding Rong Yu's body, he slowly stood up and walked towards the place where he had been sleeping before.
"Zheping......" Ye Hong called softly behind him.
He was very worried about Mu Zheping's state at this time, and he knew that he was immersed in grief. This is Mu Zheping he has never seen before, although he is not crazy, but he also does not have the calmness and sanity of the past.
Yes, it's just a twilight like a walking corpse.
His call went unanswered.
Soon, Mu Zheping came to the outside of the pit. He hugged the cold body one last time, and finally gently let him in.
This is the place where I have slept, and it has its own breath. Uncle Rong, shouldn't you be reluctant to 'sleep' here, right?" he thought silently.
A moment later, a lonely tomb without a monument quietly stood on top of this barren scorched earth.
He knelt down in front of the tomb and didn't make a sound for a long time, until Ye Hong's big hand behind him gently pressed his shoulder.
"Third brother, the deceased is gone, don't be too sad. Senior Rong Yu will definitely live well in another world, and he doesn't want to see you so sad......"
Mu Zhe got up slowly, and there seemed to be some color in his godless eyes.
"Did Ah Si ask you to come?" he asked softly.
Seeing that he finally spoke up, Ye Hong hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, he saw that the enemy had a conspiracy, let me come back to Mingcheng to guard it, and take the eldest sister back by the way." ”
"Ah...... What's going on?" he suddenly felt tired.
"Zhouxi City came to Shaoying's challenge, and Ah Si went to fight. ”
In the past, Mu Zheping would definitely ask about the cause and effect, as well as the specific details, and infer the joints. But now, he seems to have lost all his mind.
He just nodded slightly, and gently patted Ye Hong's broad shoulder: "I know, don't worry, second brother, he will bring Shaoying back alive." ”
"Oh......" Ye Hong nodded silently.
He has always been extremely convinced of Mu Zheping's judgment. But he knew that now was not the time to discuss the situation with him.
"I'll go back first, you have to be good later. He suddenly opened his arms, hugged Ye Hong, and said something that he didn't understand.
Isn't he going to go with the army?
To be honest, when he saw Mu Zheping's scene just now, his first reaction in his heart was ecstasy.
One is that he is still alive, and the other is that with him, he has someone to rely on.
But now, he found that Mu Zheping didn't seem to have any intention of going with him at all.
"Where are you going?" he instinctively blurted out.
Mu Zheping's figure in front of him had already taken a few steps, perhaps it was an illusion, Ye Hong found that his hair was slowly changing color.
"Go pick up the individual and collect some debts. Tell Ah Si that you don't have to wait for me. ”
