The deserted city is still the same as before.

There was a crowd of figures up there, guarded as always.

"I'm back again......"

Gao Zhi sighed, when he left, he had made a promise to marry that lovely woman. However, fate has made people, and in just a few years, time has passed.

"Who's coming?"

Some of the people at the head of the city shouted loudly, and they were ready for battle. However, the deserted city is equipped with a powerful killing array, and even Dao Zun has to avoid it, so the guards are not very worried.

"I bothered to inform the city lord of Ye, and said that Gao Zhi was visiting. ”

Gao Zhi raised his voice and did not trespass.

"Then you wait. ”

Some people at the head of the city swept down quickly, and did not dare to slack off. They didn't know Gao Zhi, who had not been in the deserted city for a short time, and the deserted city was isolated from the world, so he rarely knew about the outside world. As long as Ye Batian and the others will deliberately accept the information from the outside, as for them, as long as they do their duty.

Gao Zhi stood quietly and patiently.

In less than half an hour, Ye Batian's figure appeared, very hurried, with a hint of surprise in his expression. Unexpectedly, he really came!

Ye Batian rushed out of the deserted city, stared at Gao Zhi for a long time, and only spoke for a long time, "You are here." ”

"I'm back. ”

Gao Zhi whispered, his expression could not hide his sadness. "I'm sorry, it's all because of me. ”

"Don't talk about it, everything is fate. ”

Ye Batian shook his head, stopped Gao Zhi from continuing, paused, and said, "Come in with me, if she can know that you are back, she may be very happy." ”

Gao Zhi was silent and followed Ye Batian into the deserted city. Nothing has changed here, only the people who used to be are no longer there.

"Xiaozhi!"

The monkey appeared in a hurry, and after a few years, he was already a monk of the Eight Heavens of the Domineering Realm, and his expression was much better than before. Grabbing Gao Zhi with one arm, his expression was excited, as if he had thought of something again, and his expression suddenly darkened, "Xiao Zhi, I'm sorry...... Miss Ye She ...... I can't do anything......"

"I understand. ”

Gao Zhi nodded heavily and patted the monkey, even Ye Batian couldn't do anything, what could he do?

Ye Batian's footsteps did not stop, and his mood was not good, maybe the arrival of the other party was just a wish that was almost useless. The monkey silently followed behind Gao Zhi, and no one wanted to see this day.

In a clearing on the south side of the deserted city, a tombstone stands, which is very prominent and obvious. There are hundreds of flowers all around, and there are pavilions and streams not far away. Everything is built very chic, with a suitable match, and it seems that the people who built it were very careful.

"Xiao Jiu likes to be quiet, and he also likes to be accompanied by flowers and plants. It's just that I don't want her to be lonely, so I buried her in a deserted city. That way, her mother and I can come and see her at any time and stay with her. ”

Ye Batianhu's eyes were full of tears, and his body was trembling slightly.

"Thank you. ”

Gao Zhi stared at the tombstone, 'The tomb of his beloved daughter Ye Xiaojiu, father, Ye Batianli'.

Ye Batian shook his head slightly, patted Gao Zhi on the shoulder, and motioned for the monkey to leave with him.

Gao Zhi just stood quietly, with a light breeze, as if he saw the quiet woman again, sitting in front of the guqin and playing one crisp and beautiful note after another.

"I'm back. ”

Gao Zhi whispered and put his hand on the tombstone, but he didn't get any response. Perhaps, this should be an encounter with joy and tears, but now it is separated by yin and yang.

Gao Zhi sat next to the tombstone, snuggling gently, wanting to catch her breath again.

"What? He's coming? How could it be! It doesn't make sense at all. ”

Li Yihu looked at Ye Batian in disbelief, his brows furrowed, "Could it be that there is something wrong with this?"

"Uncle Shi, what do you mean by that?"

Ye Batian frowned, only then did he realize that there were many things that he didn't know.

Li Yihu frowned, and it took a long time before he shook his head, "Forget it, isn't it a good thing to come?"

Then he left, with a stomach full of questions, Yu secretly observed Gao Zhi for a while. He then left again and appeared in another castle.

"Master, that's it. ”

Li Yihu said respectfully.

"Oh?" The old man's cloudy eyes, whose eyebrows reached his chin, flickered, and he muttered, "This shouldn't be, if you have suffered from the Soul Destroying Array set up by the overlord himself, even if you cultivate the Great Dao of Souls, you can't resist it." How could he still have such a mentality and approach? Could it be that there was something in the process that I had overlooked?"

"Then, in the opinion of the master, will there be any accidents? For example, will he hold a grudge against the deserted city?"

Li Yihu asked worriedly, "After all, he has long known that the deserted city has a great relationship with the overlord. If he gets angry, we can't do it, right?"

"There's nothing to worry about, even if it's against Ye Xiaojiu, he won't be angry with the deserted city. ”

The old man thought for a moment and said, "You can rest assured, don't leak too much." Even Ye Batian can't let him know the details, do you understand?"

"The disciple understands. ”

Li Yihu bowed his head, and then said: "That disciple will go over first, in case there is really something wrong with him, I will also take action to suppress one or two first." ”

"Go ahead. ”

The old man bowed his head and looked quite tired. These things made him feel very tired, more tired than having fought a life-and-death battle. After all, there is an innocent girl who was caught up in it and was supposed to have a good life of her own.

Li Yihu monitored all of Gao Zhi's movements from a distance with an inexplicable mood, not wanting anything to happen. But nothing happened as he imagined, Gao Zhi just sat quietly, not moving.

During this period, Ye Batian, the monkey and Ye Xiaojiu's mother also kept going to the cemetery, but Gao Zhi didn't seem to be aware of this, and he didn't even open his eyes.

At sunrise and sunset, the sky and the earth are bleak, and there are snowflakes falling very abruptly.

Now it is a cold season, but snow is not often the weather, but today it rained, snowflakes like goose feathers, fluttering and sprinkling, covering the earth, for this deserted city clothed in silver.

At this moment, it was as if there was no end. The deserted city was soon filled with a foot of snow. But Gao Zhi still didn't make any movement, and let Xuehua bury him.

The monkey sighed lightly, and Song Yude had already received the information of Gao Zhi's arrival, so he could only sigh at this. Once upon a time, these people knew how exclusive Gao Zhi's identity was. Now from the current point of view, the other party is also a sad person.

For nine days and nine nights, the snow fell heavily, without a break. The whole deserted city was covered with snow, and it had to be cleaned continuously, otherwise you wouldn't even be able to get out of the house.

In that place, there was almost no cemetery in sight, and it was completely buried.

Finally, the snowflakes quietly melted, and Gao Zhi stood up from them silently.

"I'm leaving. ”

Gao Zhi whispered, he only said two sentences from beginning to end, but the meaning of each sentence was different, containing great sadness, but it was hidden in the bottom of his heart, tightly. Gao Zhi stretched out his hand to sweep away the snow from the tombstone, stopped for a moment, and turned to walk into the distance.

"Whew!"

There was a whistling sound behind him, and a strong wind blew up countless snowflakes that swirled and swirled.

Gao Zhi looked back, his eyes were in a trance. It was as if the snowflakes had turned into Ye Xiaojiu and were smiling at him. The little daughter-in-law, who was waiting for her husband's return, watched so quietly, with a smile of relief in her eyes.

Gao Zhi felt as if his heart had been rubbed hard, his eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he looked ahead stupidly.

Then the wind swept into the distance, and everything was gone.

Gao Zhi stood for a moment longer, and finally sighed lightly, "I'll come to see you again." ”

The snow, I don't know when it stopped, and soon the sun appeared again.

Gao Zhi walked into the City Lord's Mansion and met Ye Batian and the City Lord's wife and the monkey who had been worried about him.

"Xiaozhi, you ...... Are you alright?" asked the monkey with concern.

"I'm fine. ”

Gao Zhi shook his head, turned to look at Ye Batian and the city lord's wife, and suddenly bowed down and made a big salute.

The city lord's wife's eyes suddenly turned red, she once held a grudge against this young man in her heart, but now, what's the use of talking about that?

"It's gone. ”

Ye Batian rushed to Gao Zhi and stretched out his hand to help Gao Zhi up, "We won't hate you, and we can't blame you for everything." ”

Gao Zhi pursed his lips tightly, and he had nothing to say for a while. After a long time, he said: "I'm leaving, there is something I need to do." ”

"I understand, you go ahead and do it, you will always be welcome here, and I hope you will have time to come back and see more. Ye Batian nodded, and could only say so.

"I will. ”

Gao Zhi whispered, his eyes fell on the monkey's body, and took out a spiritual object from the Dao ring, which was one of the fifteen plants obtained in the Star Valley, this is a kind of 'Amber Poria Cocos', the biggest effect is that it can heal the residual limbs, and the broken arms like the monkeys can be completely restored and regrown. At that time, although Gao Zhi seemed to be plundering at random, with Ming Ming on the side opening some pointers, he was very interested in this thing, and got a total of three.

However, this kind of thing is very precious, and the price difference between it and the Seven Star Life Renewal Ginseng is not much different. And it is also very rare, the three elders of Tianmen were cut off their left arms back then, if it weren't for his extraordinary strength, I'm afraid Tianmen wouldn't have used that kind of resource at all.

Plus some of the ones he consumed before, except for this one, there is actually not much.

"With this thing, your arm will heal. ”

Gao Zhi stuffed things into the monkey's hands, "City Lord Ye, I'm tired." ”

Ye Batian nodded, although he was shocked by this thing, but he thought that Gao Zhi had also entered the Taichu Dojo after all, so he didn't continue to say anything. The conversation between the two was very blunt, and they didn't mention anything about the Taichu Dojo to each other.

When Gao Zhi got together with Liang Kuai and the others, he understood that there were also geniuses and strong people in the deserted city who entered here. But when he went out, he went out alone. Because they are in the vein of the hegemon, they have that kind of privilege and means.

"Goodbye. ”

Gao Zhi and the monkey fist-hugging bumps, and then without a trace of hesitation, turned to leave.
