At this moment, a ripple suddenly appeared in a space not far away, cracking a pitch-black opening, and several figures strode out of the void, but it was Xiong Baming and the others.

"Father... Father. Saburo was shocked when he saw this, and struggled to stand up, but he was so weak that he couldn't stand up.

Hearing this, Shichiro and the others remembered that there was such a thing, and they struggled to get up.

"Lie down and don't move!"

At this time, Xiong Baying and the others had come closer.

Xiong Baming half-squatted in front of San Lang and the eldest sister, took a cursory look, there was both relief and distress in his eyes, and said in a harmonious voice: "I'll take a look at your injuries first." ”。

Hearing this, the smiles on the faces of San Lang and the eldest sister resurfaced, and this time they finally did not disappoint their father.

After a careful investigation, Xiong Ba saw that most of the two children had flesh wounds, but did not hurt their muscles and bones, and his heart was also a little calm, so he turned over his hand and took out a jade bottle, and said softly: "Help you deal with the wound first, it will be a little painful, bear with it." ”

"Hmm. San Lang and the eldest sister nodded obediently.

Seeing this, Xiong Baming didn't say much, stretched out his hand and pulled the eldest sister's arm, tore open a torn part of the robe, revealing a hideous wound, a touch of distress flashed in his eyes again, opened the jade bottle, and sprinkled the medicine powder carefully.

A burst of pain hit her heart again, the eldest sister frowned slightly, pursed her lips, and said nothing, showing extreme tenacity.

After a short time, Xiong Baming had already carefully treated all the large and small wounds on the eldest sister's body, and turned to look at San Lang.

"Not bad. Xiong Ba said expressionlessly.

Hearing this, San Lang couldn't help but smile, like a second fool.

"Sizzle......"

The powder was sprinkled on the wound, and a tingling pain struck, Saburo was unprepared for a while, his face twitched, and he couldn't help but take a light breath.

"Does it hurt?" Xiong Ba Ming paused, looked up at San Lang, and asked softly.

"It doesn't hurt. When San Lang heard this, a bright smile appeared on his face, and he shook his head slightly.

Xiong Baming hummed softly, and his heart was also distressed, but he didn't say anything, lowered his head and continued to treat Saburo's wounds, and his hands became more and more careful and gentle.

In fact, they have been secretly following San Lang and them, and when San Lang encountered the wolves, they could have directly helped, but they didn't, because these wolves are neither strong nor weak, and they are a good whetstone for San Lang!

And San Lang's performance also made them experience the feeling of riding a roller coaster, sometimes relieved and sometimes angry, and their faces changed like Sichuan opera actors, which was extremely exciting.

Fortunately, the final result still made Xiong Baming and them more satisfied, at least this first step was to step out. As for the wounds all over the body, although Xiong Baming and the others looked distressed, which cultivator would not be injured at all? What's more, to grow, you always have to pay something.

After another moment, Xiong Baming finished treating all the wounds on San Lang's body, got up and stood up slowly.

By this time, the other brothers had already finished treating their children's wounds.

A majestic aura gushed out from Xiong Ba's underworld, lingering around San Lang and the eldest sister, gently holding them up.

The group ascended to the sky and flew towards the mansion area.

"Father, the dragon foal is still under the holy mountain!" San Lang reminded.

"Well, I'll pick it up later. Xiong Ba replied.

Seeing this, San Lang didn't say anything more, and his body was floated by Xiong Ba Ming with aura, which was extremely comfortable.

The siblings looked at each other and smiled.

Not long after, Xiong Baming flew straight into the backyard with San Lang and his eldest sister.

Xiahou Xue and Lu Yuqi sensed it and greeted them from the apse.

"What's going on?" As soon as they came out, they saw San Lang and the eldest sister who looked miserable, and the sisters lost their faces and hurriedly stepped forward.

"I'll talk about the details later, and help them take care of their wounds first. Xiong Baming put the two children down and said.

Xiahou Xue and Lu Yuqi took San Lang and the eldest sister, and carefully examined them before and after, left and right, and saw that they were all flesh wounds, and their hearts were a little relieved.

picked up the child, and the two hurriedly walked to the apse, but they directly left Xiong Baming aside......

Xiahou Xue hugged Saburo and went straight to his room, put Saburo on his bed, and gently took off his dirty robe, revealing hideous wounds.

Seeing this, Xiahou Xue felt a pain in her heart, and her slender hand stroked San Lang lightly, and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore. Saburo grinned and shook his head.

At this time, Xue Rou walked in with a pot of water lotus and said softly, "Madam, the water is here." ”

Xiahou Xue nodded and motioned for him to put it down, stretched out her white jade-like palm to wring out a towel, and carefully wiped Saburo's body.

Then, Xiahou Xue took out various tools and ointments from her wrist guards, carefully treated the wound for San Lang, applied good medicine, and gently bandaged it.

After all this, Xiahou Xue sat on the edge of the bed and looked at San Lang quietly, her eyes full of love. But San Lang was sleepy, tired, mentally and physically exhausted, and had already fallen asleep.

After a long time, Xiahou Xue gently covered the quilt for San Lang, packed up the things, and retreated lightly.

......

"Hmm~"

The next morning, San Lang slowly opened his eyes, the bright and dazzling sunlight shone in through the window, and he subconsciously raised his hand to block it.

"Huh?" After a while, San Lang gradually adapted to the sun, and gradually came back to his senses, moved his arms slightly, saw that it was not very painful, and his spirit was greatly lifted, and he lifted the quilt violently, sat up with a swish, and saw that the wounds all over his body had been bandaged, and moved slightly, and there was no discomfort.

"It's ...... Already?"

Saburo couldn't help but be overjoyed, and reached out and gently pinched an injury......

"Sizzle......"

Suddenly, Saburo's face was distorted, and he gasped with grinning teeth.

"Damn! it hurts!" Saburo couldn't help but scold.

After relieving himself, Saburo carefully got out of bed and got dressed, pushed the door and went out.

"Is my sister up, do you want to call her?" In the corridor, Saburo looked at his eldest sister's room and thought.

"Forget it. ”

In the end, San Lang was afraid that the eldest sister was still resting, so he closed the door of his room with his backhand and walked towards the hall.

After breakfast, Saburo wandered around alone.

"San Lang!" Xiahou Xue was sitting in a pavilion and was playing the qin, and saw San Lang wandering in the corridor from a distance, waving his hand and shouting.

"Mother. Seeing that it was Xiahou Xue, San Lang was overjoyed, shouted and ran quickly towards Xiahou Xue.

"Slow down, there are still injuries!" Seeing this, Xiahou Xue said with a little blame.

"It doesn't hurt anymore, it's fine. San Lang came to Xiahou Xue and sat down, and said nonchalantly.

"Then be careful, it's not good yet. Xiahou Xue pulled San Lang, carefully tidied up his robe, and then asked, "Have you had breakfast?" ”

"Well, I did. Saburo nodded obediently and replied.

Hearing this, Xiahou Xue nodded, and continued: "By the way, your father still has something to look for you, and he didn't bother you just now when he saw that you hadn't woken up yet." Let's go find him in the study. ”

"Oh. When Saburo heard this, he wanted to get up and go to the study.

"Hey. Xiahou Xue stretched out her hand to hold San Lang and said, "Come to my room and find me when you're done, and change the medicine for you." ”

"yes, I see. San Lang nodded in response, said goodbye to Xiahou Xue, and walked quickly towards the study.

Along the way, San Lang used his brain, thinking about what Xiong Baming would do to find him? After thinking about it, he guessed that it should be related to yesterday's events.

When he came to the door of the study, he saw that the door was open, and Saburo poked his head out and looked inside.

"Come in. Xiong Ba seemed to feel something, put down the ancient book in his hand, and looked up at the door.

Hearing this, San Lang no longer hid, walked into the study with a smile, and said, "Father." ”

With a gentle smile on his face, Xiong Baming beckoned San Lang to come to his side and asked, "Is the injury better?"

"It's much better, it doesn't hurt anymore. Saburo patted his chest and said.

"Hmm. Xiong Baming nodded, got up and waved his robe, a strong wind swept through, slammed the door shut, turned around and walked towards the back room, and said, "Follow me." ”。

Hearing this, Saburo hurriedly followed, and walked into the back room, which had a row of bookshelves and a large bed, which was very simple.

At this moment, there are two more tall shelves in the room, which are covered by a black cloth, and you can't see what is inside, San Lang turned his head and thought for a moment, but he still couldn't figure it out, so he had to look at Xiong Baming with a puzzled face.

"I'll show you two paintings. Xiong Baming motioned to Saburo to close the door, and then pulled up the curtains, and the room suddenly became dark.

Closing the door, Saburo couldn't help but muttered to himself when he saw this formation, "What kind of painting is this? ”

At this time, Xiong Baming had already lifted the black cloth on the wooden frame on the left side.

Saburo naturally looked sideways, and what caught his eye was a soft and peaceful picture, which was colorful and exuded a soft light, and there was a strange energy lingering on it, making the picture slightly blurry, and people couldn't help but pour their hearts and minds to take a closer look.

Saburo just glanced at it and couldn't take his eyes off it, his heart was attracted by it, and the whole person seemed to have entered a wonderful world.

The world is full of beautiful scenery, birds and flowers, and a sense of tranquility and tranquility that makes people feel extremely comfortable and comfortable.

The picture gradually changes, many scenes retreat one by one, houses emerge, and the surroundings gradually become lively, and Saburo is already in a city. There are young people talking and laughing with wine, there are old people stroking their beards and playing the piano, and there are children playing carefully, and people come and go, which is particularly lively. Each of them had a happy smile on their faces, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Saburo was in it, and he was also infected by the happy and harmonious atmosphere, and he also had a smile on his face, happy from the bottom of his heart.

The picture gradually changed again, the city gradually went away, a big river appeared in front of San Lang's eyes, on the riverside is a green meadow, and the temples stand in the distance, but it is the scenery of the Spirit River.

Laughter sounded in his ears, several figures appeared, and they were playing happily, but it was their family and Da Lang who were called by them, and San Lang also joined in with laughter and enjoyed their fun......

The scenes in the painting were deeply attracted to Saburo, and he was addicted to them and couldn't extricate himself.

"Cough..."Xiong Baming coughed lightly, pulling Saburo's thoughts back.

Saburo's body trembled, came back to his senses, and couldn't help but glance at the painting again, the picture was so peaceful but slightly confused, people couldn't help but want to take a closer look.

Seeing this, San Lang hurriedly shook his head, not daring to look at the painting, looking at Xiong Baming with a puzzled face, not knowing what this meant.

"Look at this painting again. Xiong Baming didn't explain anything, and lifted the cover on another elevated shelf with his backhand.

San Lang looked at it curiously, and the whole person suddenly trembled, and what came into view was a gray, deep, and extremely depressing picture.

An inexplicable suction pulled Saburo's mind into it.

The surroundings were gloomy, and Saburo looked around, feeling depressed in his heart. The sky is gray, the earth is scorched, the mountains and rivers are broken, and there is no life in the sky! Gray and dead silence are the only themes under this sky.

Then, the scenery around him gradually changed, and Saburo was once again in a familiar and unfamiliar city, full of ruins and broken walls, everything withered, and from time to time there were bursts of crows of wails, and the people in the city were yellow and ragged, like walking corpses. Killing and violence are all over the place, and the strong contrast makes Saburo shiver in his heart.

The city gradually went away, San Lang gradually walked to the bank of the Ling River, the sky here is still so gray, the land is scorched, the war is flying, the bridge has been broken, the palace has been destroyed, a powerful beast in the sky, constantly attacking the people on the ground, some people fled in a panic, among which San Lang saw the eldest sister, saw the big lang them, they were so helpless, so desperate, and finally disappeared in the raging fire; Xiong Bayou and others, they roared, they roared, they ascended to the sky, fought to the death, but in the end they were bleeding in the sky and fell under the giant palm of the giant beast!

He couldn't help but have red eyes, his face was hideous, he gritted his teeth and struggled, trying to lean over, but there was an invisible force that restrained him, and he couldn't move at all; he shouted loudly, but he couldn't make a sound; he could only watch and watch this happen. Tears rolled down, but nothing changed.

Once again, Saburo felt powerlessness and helplessness.

"Don't!" Saburo shouted, slumping to the ground weakly, and his consciousness gradually came to his senses.

"It's okay, it's not true, it's okay. Saburo's chest heaved, gasping for air, trying to forget it all, but the image seemed to be imprinted in his mind, so clear, so real, as if it would happen one day.

"Escape?" Saburo's first thought was to run away, but then he shook his head again, secretly thinking to himself, "No, you can't escape, you can't escape." ”

"Do you want to stop this?" At this moment, a solemn voice sounded in Saburo's ears.

"Yes. Saburo's face was painful, and his mind was full of the depressing images just now.

"Do you want to protect the beauty around you?"

"Think!" Saburo suddenly appeared in front of his eyes the previous peaceful picture, but then gradually shattered, into that depressed appearance, his heart was filled with a sense of weakness, but there was a certain thought that became more and more firm, he replied loudly.

"Then, let's get stronger!"

Like a huge thunder ringing in his ears, San Lang suddenly raised his head and looked at the solemn Xiong Baming in front of him, and his heart was bright.

"That's right, I want to be stronger, I want to be stronger!

Saburo looked at the oppressive picture again, and the whole person was like a strong man who died generously.

"San Lang, are you willing to use everything you have to protect the people around you?" Xiong Baming said again.

"I do!" the voice was still childish, but sonorous.

"San Lang, please take the sword!" Xiong Ba Ming turned his hand and took out a long sword, holding his hands on his chest.

Seeing this, Saburo fell to his knees and raised his hands above his head.

"This is your sword, but also your responsibility! Now that you are equipped with a sword, you are an adult, from now on, the road will be you yourself! I hope you can use the sword in your hand to cut through the difficulties and dangers ahead, and protect the peace behind you!" Xiong Baming paused, took a deep breath, and became more and more solemn, "No matter the mountains of corpses and blood in front of you, no matter the heinous crimes on your body, I hope you can protect the auspicious clouds behind you!"

When San Lang heard this, a soft and peaceful picture appeared in front of him, in the painting, the eldest sister, the eldest lang, and many other people are living happily, everything is so harmonious. But at this moment, Saburo looked at it so fragile, as if there were countless sinful eyes staring at it, wanting to destroy it and drag it into endless darkness.

His eyes became more and more determined, and he shouted, "No!"

Seeing this, Xiong Baming slowly stepped forward and slowly handed the sword into San Lang's hand.

Taking the sword, San Lang's hand suddenly sank, the sword is not heavy, but the responsibility it represents, the promise he just made, is as heavy as a mountain!

Saburo clenched the sword with both hands and carefully examined the sword that belonged to him, the scabbard was cyan and the sword body was slender.

"Shhhhh

San Lang slowly pulled out the sword, and the sword body was glowing with a trace of cold light, and the whole body was full of a sharp aura.

San Lang stood up with a sword in his right hand, and the whole person became like a sharp sword, with a sharp edge, wanting to break through the heavy barrier and pierce the nine heavens!

San Lang held his sword and looked at the picture scroll on the right, the picture was still so depressing, but there was an extra colored area inside, and a touch of peace was revealed, it was so obvious, and it was so fragile, as if it would disappear in the next second.

When Saburo looked closely, it seemed that there was a figure blocking the endless darkness and guarding the peaceful sky.

Gradually, the figure became clearer and clearer, he was full of resentment, like a man who had committed the most heinous crimes, he was murderous and wanted to slaughter all living beings in the world, and his long sword was stained with blood, like a great wall of steel, blocking all darkness and guarding the sky behind him!

San Lang's eyes widened suddenly, a cold gaze fell on him, and a familiar and unfamiliar face appeared, that was himself!

Saburo slowly closed his eyes, as if an invisible pressure was surging from all around, trying to crush him severely!

"San Lang, don't be afraid, there is me, and everyone, let's guard this sky together!" At this time, Xiong Baming's gentle but firm voice sounded in San Lang's ears.

San Lang took a few deep breaths, and his body slowly relaxed.

"Even if there is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood in front of me, and the charges on my body are gushing, the auspicious clouds behind me are still there!" San Lang slowly opened his eyes, and the whole person seemed particularly calm.

"Go back and get some rest. Seeing this, Xiong Baming also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand and said slowly.

"No. San Lang put away his sword and returned it to its sheath, saluted Xiong Ba, and slowly retreated.

"Huh~" After San Lang left, Xiong Baming relaxed, and his clenched palms were released, which were already covered with sweat. He was also highly nervous and under tremendous pressure.

The sword is usually held after the Saburo is fifteen years old and their minds are gradually mature. This kind of "ripening" method is extremely dangerous, and the slightest mistake will leave an eternal wound in the child's heart, and even if it is successful, it will take a long time to fade these negative effects to erase these negative effects. If it weren't for the urgency of time, San Lang and the others would have to grow as soon as possible, and Xiong Ba Ming would never use such a method.

"Fortunately, nothing went wrong, fortunately ......," Xiong Baming thought.
