Chapter 320: It's been a long time and I don't know how to return to the year
Wu Gen is finally leaving, in this winter when the first snow is gone. Ji Junlin was in a hurry to return to the Holy Mountain, and he had already urged him to set off several times.
Before leaving, at the insistence of Wu Qian, he and Zhu Qianhua went back to Xishan again.
The two of them walked among the mountains, climbing the steps, the snow rustling under their feet. In the distance, a few lonely birds in the sky roared and swept through the bleak mountains and forests. Looking up, the sun is faint and gloomy, the haze is on the top of the mountain, and it is unspeakable to be bleak all around.
A dead leaf accompanied by a cold wind fell on Wu Gan's face. Feeling the coldness on the leaves, I couldn't help but feel melancholy.
Every grass and tree, brick and tile here, all pour their own efforts, and now they will eventually go away, and they don't know when the day is the return. Perhaps he was not born with a life that could live in peace, and he was destined to toss and turn in the whirlpools and torrents like falling flowers.
"Come back well." Walking to the edge of a cliff, Zhu Qianhua suddenly stopped, his eyes were red, and he looked at Wu Yan in a daze.
"Yes, I will, no matter how far I go, I'll be back." Wu Gen smiled and helped Zhu Qianhua tie his coat tightly, and gently stroked his clean and quiet face.
A teardrop rolled down the back of his hand, feeling the warmth in it, Wu Jian reached out and hugged Zhu Qianhua in his arms, gently kissed her hair, and whispered in her delicate and clear ear, "Take care of our home, you are my destiny, no matter where I swim, I will eventually go to destiny."
I won't die, and I don't want to live alone for the rest of my life. Sooner or later, your man will come to greet you with thousands of sons and let you sit on the high throne of the village. My heart, you have to wait for me to put it back in my chest. ”
"Uh-huh......"
The shallow painting couldn't cry, and the suppressed sobs were wrapped in the cold wind, rushing out of the woods and running to the top of the mountain, and finally turned into a clear howl, echoing between heaven and earth.
Wu Gen went to the capital and joined Zhao Guo's return visit mission, and there was an extra Yang Zheng by his side. This person somehow got the news and wanted to take the opportunity to return to Tianyuan Continent with Wu Gan.
Although Baoxiang tried his best to ask to go along, Wu Gen asked him to stay and guard Xishan, after all, this trip is long, the future is uncertain, there is no need to take risks together, he still has to come back.
When he arrived at Taichang Temple, Wu Ling couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, Zhao Ling was already sitting in it.
"Wu Gan, meet again." Zhao Ling's face had an unusually red flush, and he was wearing a loose fox fur collar on his body, which covered his delicate figure.
"It's good to meet again, it's good that you didn't die in prison." The corners of Wu Gan's mouth pulled up, revealing his white teeth.
"It's really sad that you didn't get what you wanted." Zhao Ling stood up, took an elegant posture, and walked in front of Wu Gan.
"Why are you here?" Wu Yan tilted his head and asked.
"Thanks to the emperor's trust, I will be the chief envoy for this return visit to the Divine Cult. The people sent by various countries are all children of the royal family, and for Zhao Guo, it is me, the lord who has lost his fiefdom and is as panicked as a lost dog, is the most suitable, and there is no loss in dying outside. Zhao Ling lazily stroked his sideburns.
"Whoever can betray his father, whoever stays by his side is not afraid, it is better to send it out and harm others." Wu Gen couldn't help but sneer.
"Each other, they are all people who are disgusted by God and abandoned by ghosts, and they are far away and quiet." Zhao Ling was not annoyed or angry, and poked a finger into Wu Gan's chest, "I still need you to take care of you all the way, Wu Guiren." ”
"Say it well, I'll take good care of you." Wu Yan looked at the fingers on his chest, took a step back, smiled lightly, turned his head to leave, and turned his head after walking a few steps, "I wish you a good night's sleep every day."
Zhao Ling remained motionless, watching his people leave, his red lips moved, and he silently spit out two words, looking for death.
Before leaving, Zhu Buzhan found Wu Gan, returned the arm and soul crystal, and gave him a strangely shaped mirror. Wu Yan couldn't help but be a little surprised, this jujube red mirror was obviously used by women.
"This is the legacy of the shallow painting mother, and it is a magic weapon of the gods. This time to a foreign continent, the road is dangerous and long, and Mr. has nothing to give you, so stay by your side to defend yourself. Zhu Buzhan looked warm and tied his arm for Wu Gan.
Wu Yan was a little distracted for a while, this should be the few things left by the master, not even Zhu Qianhua, I think it is Zhu Buzhan's beloved thing, and today I actually gave it to myself, "Sir, there is no big risk in going here, it is better to stay in your hands." ”
"You take it, staying with me can only increase the sorrow, I want to come to ask Yun Zaitian's spirit, and I also hope that you can return safely, so I will give you a gift on her behalf." Zhu Buzhan didn't take it back, and the cold wind blew a few strands of white hair on his sideburns, which made Wu Gen's heart a little sour.
"Mr. Xie and Mrs. Shi." Wu Gen took a step back and reached the ground for a long time.
Zhu Buzhan nodded with satisfaction, "The road ahead is far away, people's hearts are in danger, your temperament is already jumping, you still have to be more stable." If there are ups and downs, when the utensils are hidden, wait for the time to move, and do not let it go. Don't forget, where home is. ”
Wu Gen nodded heavily, this gentleman, who is usually a little stubborn and bookish, really treats himself as a family member. For a moment, the sorrow was a little lighter.
The delegation and his party left the capital, and Li Zhenglu did not come forward because of the cold, but was fully managed by the subordinate officials, and the send-off seemed sloppy.
There is an extra familiar face of Wu Yan in the team, Li Chong. This big man, as always, was inseparable in front of Zhao Ling's car.
At the beginning, because of Huang Li's matter, Wu Gen once played with this fierce-looking, but actually honest man. Seeing Wu Gen again, Li Chong did not have the slightest barrier, and greeted Wu Gen from afar.
The team went all the way to the south, and this trip was to go to the border between Zhao and Great Xia to meet the people of the Great Xia mission. Sitting in the car, watching Fuli City gradually disappear and melt into the dust, snow and fog, Wu Gen felt an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness rise in his heart.
"It's cold, let's have a cup of tea." Yang Zheng handed over a cup of hot tea. These days, Yang Zheng has become more and more silent, far from the excitement of returning to his homeland.
After taking a sip of hot tea, Wu Gen found that there were some ginger slices and other things added to it, and he couldn't help frowning, "Yang Zheng, tea is tea, why put so many bells and whistles, it dilutes the taste of tea." ”
Yang Zhengmei took a sip, "Wu Gan, you have to adapt, when you arrive in Tianyuanzhou, tea is this way to drink, and you have to boil it thoroughly with water." And the drinking method of Beizhou should be called making tea. ”
"Yang Zheng, why did you leave Tianyuan Continent?" Wu Gan reluctantly took another sip and put the teacup on the table.
"Kill someone, just run for your life." Yang Zheng replied casually.
"No wonder you are not eager to return, it is not ordinary people who want to kill, otherwise you wouldn't have to flee all the way to the Great Relic Continent." Wu Yan laughed.
Yang Zheng lifted his somewhat sagging abdomen, his expression was a little complicated, and after thinking about it, he said: "Wu Gan, I always feel that it is right for you to leave Zhao Kingdom, here you are just an ordinary member of the noble people in the end, it is better to go out and break through, I can't say that I will find another world." Come, drink more tea, and get used to the number of roads in other continents earlier. ”
Wu Gen sneered and said: "Peace of mind prescription is home, homeless is just floating duckweed, even if you travel all over the world, what is the benefit." ”
"Let's see, I've seen the sea, and I don't want to go back to the pond." Yang Zheng smiled lightly at Wu Gen and took a sip of ginger tea comfortably.
When the convoy was resting, Ji Junlin came to Wu Gan's carriage. In this procession, Wu Gan's car was sandwiched in the middle, and there were people from the Divine Sect watching from front and back, for fear that something would go wrong with this living holy relic.
Yang Zheng got out of the car with interest and left the carriage to the two.
Ji Junlin and Wu Yan sat in the car, looking at each other, this was the first time that the two had sat at such a close distance, and the atmosphere in the carriage was a little dull.
After hesitating for a long time, Ji Junlin spoke, "Wu Gan, how did you get the Heart of Light?" ”
Wu Yan curled up one leg and leaned lazily on the carriage, "I don't know if it's in the body when I was born, or if I was hit on the head by a meteor when I was sleeping one day." ”
"The Heart of Light contains a powerful light of light, and if it weren't for its innate indecibility and great tolerance to the power of light, I'm afraid that those who possess it would have been burned to ashes long ago.
Or if someone has taught the secret method, it can also accommodate this holy relic, but this secret method is too harmful to the person who casts the spell, and few people are willing to pay such a price. Ji Junlin accepted the arrogance that he had always had, and explained sincerely.
"I inquired with Zhao Ling, you are an orphan with an unknown background. Back then, my father Ji Jue led a team to Beizhou, but he was killed by someone, and the Heart of Bright was in his hands at that time.
I'm thinking, is it possible, you are my father's ......" Speaking of this, Ji Junlin paused and said with difficulty: "It's my father's widow." ”
Plopped, Wu Yan was startled, his head hit the roof of the carriage hard, knocking out a big hole, and his whole head was exposed. Sensing his own gaffe, Wu Gan struggled to pull his head back from outside the carriage.
"Don't be kidding, Ji Junlin, don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing." It was the first time that Wu Gen was recognized as a brother, and he felt extremely ridiculous for a while, and he was really frightened by the other party's ideas.
Ji Junlin's face turned imperceptibly red, "Of course, this is my blind guess, or it may be that my father hid the holy relic on you in a hurry when he saw that you were very qualified." Can I borrow a drop of blood from you, there is an ancient beast bloodline in my Ji clan, and you will know it at a glance. ”
Wu Gen saw that the more the other party thought about it, the more crooked it became, but he didn't bother to explain, as long as all his eyes were focused on himself, Zhu Qianhua would be safe and worry-free.
A touch of red appeared on Ji Junlin's fingertips, and with a flick of it, this drop of blood floated in the air out of thin air, and a powerful aura emanated from it. Immediately afterward, an egg-sized ball of light appeared in the palm of his hand. The ball of light slowly floated into the air, enveloping the droplets of blood.
Blood droplets rolled rapidly, and a small alien beast appeared in the ball of light, antlers, sheep's hooves, snake scales, and oxtails, with strange shapes, extremely ferocious, and roaring in the ball of light.
"Look, this is the bloodline of the Ji family." Ji Junlin's eyes were scorching, staring at the ball of light in front of him, "Only a clansman with pure blood can have such a vision. With a flick of his fingers, the ball of light disappeared, and he looked at Wu Yan expectantly, "A drop of blood is enough." ”
Wu Yan knew that he couldn't hide, but why not try, anyway, he knew what he was doing.
Squeezed out a drop of blood from his fingertips, but he couldn't float in the air without fireworks like the other party, so he had to smile awkwardly. Ji Junlin didn't care, smiled slightly, and the ball of light flew out again.
Blood drips into the ball, where it floats and sinks, but nothing changes.
Ji Junlin glanced at Wu Yan in disappointment, and was about to withdraw the spell, when suddenly a red light flashed in the ball of light, the entire white ball turned blood red, and the body of the ball suddenly increased by more than two times, and the red mist rolled in it, like a crater.
With a bang, the blood ball burst open, and the blood foam splashed everywhere, killing Ji Junlin.
Glancing at Wu Yan suspiciously, Ji Junlin's eyes gradually became indifferent, bowed slightly, and got up and got out of the carriage.
Wu Yan wiped the blood foam on his face, not understanding what the other party meant.
