Chapter 2: A Night of Shock

Sun Yi sat quietly in front of the earthen stove, one hand casually stuffing firewood into the stove, the other hand supporting his chin, his eyes staring directly at the flames jumping in the stove, still thinking about the scene half an hour ago.

At that time, he was standing aside to listen to what the old man Yang and the middle-aged man said about "His Majesty the Emperor" and "glazed colored tiles", but he was really scared enough by the young man to look at him.

Now I think back to the strange things that happened at the moment when I met the handsome young man's eyes, and I still feel chills all over my body.

He vaguely remembered that at the moment when the black vortex in the handsome young man's eyes receded, he seemed to see some pale cyan points of light in the young man's eyes, and those points of light were extremely familiar to him, which were one of the multicolored points of light that appeared above his head on time every night for more than four years.

Could it be that the handsome young man was suffering from the same strange illness as himself?

Time passed in Sun Yi'an's cranky thoughts.

Two hours later, Yang Laodong's party slowly walked from the mountain behind the brick kiln.

Just looking at the uncontrollable smile on the face of Mr. Yang's family, you can know that eighty percent of this deal has been negotiated.

After the three of them descended the mountain, they only drank a bowl of tea and drove back to the town.

During this period, Sun Yi'an also secretly glanced at the handsome young man a few times, but the other party did not say anything as before, and there was nothing unusual.

For a period of time after that, Sun Yi'an was busy with the kiln every day as usual, and experienced the onset of the "strange disease" on time every night, and gradually, he left the handsome young man behind.

One day after January, a team of hundreds of people walked in the direction of Yangjiayao.

Just finished helping the potters out the bricks, Sun Yi'an, who was covered in ash, was about to carry a bucket of water back to his residence to wipe his body, and happened to meet Yang Laodong's family leading a large group of people towards the kiln, and the middle-aged and handsome young people who had come last time were also impressively listed.

Before he got closer, he heard Yang Laodong's family say: "Yi'an, go!" Call out all the people in the kiln, I have something to explain to you! ”

After speaking, he led the group of people towards the simple wooden shed in front of the stove where the potters usually rested.

Sun Yi'an, who was confused, had no choice but to say hello, and trotted all the way over to gather the other potters.

After everyone arrived, the old man Yang cleared his throat and said: "Today, the old man has a big event to tell you, from now on, the top priority of our Yang family kiln will be to burn the glazed colored tiles on the top of the palace for His Majesty the Emperor today!"

In the future, the firing of glazed colored tiles will be subject to the arrangements of Lord Liu and Liu Gongzi from the county town. The first thing to do now is to repair a few temporary residences for Lord Liu's father and son and you to live in temporarily......"

After a full hour, Mr. Liu's family finished explaining the big and small matters.

At this time, the potters below had already exploded, and they were talking to each other with excitement on their faces.

If there is a word "emperor" in the world, it is a great event!

Ordinary people, dozens of generations may not be able to produce a single emperor. Even if there was an ancestor who brushed the pot overnight in the palace, it was enough for future generations to brag about it from time to time, not to mention burning bricks and tiles for the emperor!

After listening to the words of the old Yang family, Sun Yi'an, who was standing on the side, combined with the words of the old Yang family and the middle-aged man last time, thought silently for a while, and then showed a sudden look on his face.

He didn't have any excitement, the emperor was not the emperor, it had nothing to do with him, anyway, he would do whatever the old Yang family asked him to do, and the old Yang family had a great favor to him.

As he thought, he looked up in the direction where Old Yang's house was standing.

Old Yang was talking to the middle-aged man in a low voice, while the handsome young man standing behind the middle-aged man was looking at him with interest for some time.

He was suddenly startled, and his eyes dodged.

When the young man saw him like this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and then he turned his head to look away as if nothing had happened.

From the second day, Yangjiayao was completely lively.

There are more than 100 people who repair walls, cut wood, chisel stones, and make molds, a scene in full swing, and Sun Yi'an is also busy inside and out.

It's dog days, it's hot, and even at night, it's a bit hot.

After Sun Yi'an, who had been busy all day, scrubbed his body, he didn't even close the door, and lay on the bed shirtless.

When he arrived, the strange illness struck on time as usual, and he lay quietly on the bed and looked at the points of light flying around him, hoping that the strange illness that he hated so much would soon end, and that he would sleep beautifully.

For a while, the entire small cave was silent, only Sun Yi'an's thin chest rose and fell slightly.

Two hours passed slowly, and when all the five-colored points of light had dispersed, he sat up, twisted his waist from side to side, and turned around to get out of bed.

But when he just stretched his feet to the ground and was about to put on his shoes, when he looked up and saw the scene at the door, he was scared to the bone, and his mouth was "Ah~!" With a loud scream, he stumbled, kicked his legs together, and quickly retreated to the bed!

By the moonlight, he saw a figure dressed in white and with a long figure standing at the door, looking at him steadily!

"Who?!"

He curled up on the bed, his back pressed against the wall, and drank with a look of horror in his eyes.

"No wonder I can sense the fluctuation of spiritual power from you, and can block my spiritual eyes from peeping, you are indeed a cultivator!" The figure did not answer who he was, but opened his mouth to say something that made him feel inexplicable.

As soon as the figure spoke, he heard who it was

"Liu Yu, you don't sleep in the middle of the night. Why are you running to me? Frightened and a little annoyed, he asked angrily.

Through a short period of contact, Sun Yi'an also knew that this handsome young man was named Liu Yu.

"Hehe, after I finished meditating tonight, I came out for a casual walk, and I noticed that the aura of heaven and earth on your side fluctuated abnormally, so I came over to take a look, but I didn't expect to bump into you who were spitting and cultivating." Liu Yu said with a chuckle.

"Humph! Stealthy! Sun Yi'an pulled the cardigan beside him and said while putting it on his body.

Seeing this, Liu Yu was not angry, and asked again and again: "Anyway, why are you living in seclusion here as a cultivator?" What sect are you from? Why is your method of breathing so peculiar that you actually lie down and cultivate? ”

Sun Yi'an said angrily while putting on his shoes on the ground: "I'm afraid you're not dazed, right?" Stop talking nonsense, I'm going to sleep, you go back quickly! ”

"Yo! I've bumped into it, and I don't admit it! Aren't you an outcast of a sect who broke the precepts and was expelled from the sect? Whether it's a practitioner or not, I'll find out if I try it! ”

After Liu Yu said this, the five fingers of one hand were bent and stretched forward, and a thumb-sized fireball suddenly appeared out of thin air in the palm of his hand!

As soon as the fireball appeared, it made a sound of burning air, so that Liu Yu's handsome face behind the fireball was distorted.

Juggle?

Sun Yi'an, who had just put the shoes on his feet, was stunned by the other party's hand.

Immediately, I saw Liu Yu wave his hand, and the fireball seemed to float towards Sun Yi'an slowly!

Before he reached him, a scorching heat swept in his face, and his cheeks hurt!

Sun Yi'an was taken aback, woke up from his sluggishness, and hurriedly dodged to the side, and the fireball grazed his head and landed on the corner of the wooden bed, and the bedding on the bed suddenly burned!

Able to dodge the fireball, he was so frightened by the scene in front of him that his skin contracted for a while!

"Humph! Also loaded! ”

Liu Yu snorted coldly, and then a fireball that was one point bigger than Fang just appeared in his palm.

Seeing this, Sun Yi'an, who was frightened, had a sharp turn of thought, knowing that there was nowhere to hide in the narrow cave, so he gritted his teeth and rushed towards the door of the cave, intending to seize the door and escape!

Liu Yu saw that the other party didn't fight back at all, his face was slightly stunned, and then he flicked it with one hand, and the fireball disappeared in an instant.

"Hey! Don't you run......"

Just when Sun Yi'an rushed to the door and was about to bypass Liu Yu in front of him, Liu Yu suddenly turned to one side and grabbed Sun Yi'an's shoulder.

An even weirder scene has appeared!

Sun Yi'an suddenly seemed to be immobilized, maintaining a strange posture of holding the door frame with his left hand and stepping over the threshold with his right foot, and remained motionless.

But Liu Yu began to tremble violently, and then, two mysterious gases, blue and white, appeared on his body, and the arm that grabbed Sun Yi'an's shoulder kept surging into Sun Yi'an's body.

Liu Yu, who was originally as plump as jade, rapidly aged and shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his exposed skin became wrinkled and abnormal.

His mouth was wide open, and he struggled with horror, but he couldn't withdraw the hand that grabbed Sun Yi'an's shoulder!

Sun Yi'an's eyes were red, and his face was full of bruises.

At this moment, he only felt as if the flesh and bones of his body were being stripped away, the blood vessels and meridians seemed to be about to explode, and the pain in his head was unbearable as if he had been pierced into countless needles!

The intense pain plunged his consciousness into darkness for a moment.

"Hiss~~"

Half an hour later, Sun Yi'an slowly woke up. Feeling the sharp pain coming from his body, he gasped.

But when he opened his eyes and swept away the shriveled corpse beside him that reflected the miserable white moonlight, he suddenly screamed in fright and fainted again!

I don't know when, Liu Yu beside him has turned into a hideous-looking corpse with a shriveled body that seems to have been dead for a hundred or ten years, lying upright on the ground.

It's a weird scene!

When Sun Yi'an woke up again, the sky was already slightly white.

He crouched on the threshold with his hands folded on his knees, staring blankly at the wooden bed and bedding that had long since turned into a pile of black ash in the small kiln, and the terrifying dried corpse on the ground. My mind went blank, and I just sat motionless with a numb expression.

"Boy, if you don't leave, the sky will be bright!" An old voice suddenly appeared in Sun Yi'an's mind.

Sun Yi'an asked in a flat tone, "Who are you?" ”

After a strange night, he had forgotten his fear and surprise in the face of the voice that suddenly appeared in his head.

"Hehe~ Who am I? Brat! If you weren't an old man, you would have died in Huangquan as early as the year you stopped taking medicine at the age of twelve, how could you live to this day! The voice replied.

He said weakly: "I don't know you, whether you are a human or a ghost, if you want to kill or chop it!" ”

"Boy, gossip aside, it's about to dawn. This time, you killed this young man who seems to have some background, I advise you to pack up and flee as soon as possible. The voice said with a slight urgency.

"Run? Escape there? I don't have a long life, even if the government wants to ask me for guilt, it's okay! He said with a look of resignation.

"You kid is so stupid! I want your mother to be sucked dry by you and die, and your father did not hesitate to go bankrupt in order to renew your life, and finally died of hard work!

"If you don't want to die early, why bother your poor father? If you are really beheaded by the government, what kind of face do you have......

"Enough!" Before the old voice could finish speaking, Sun Yi'an's eyes were slightly red and he stopped drinking!
