Chapter 2, Black Clouds and White Clouds
"Although I hate that old thing, after all, he is the head of the Nine Clans, and I can't interfere with it without reason."
"Egong, you have said so, Eye will definitely say the same."
"The ancestral system of the corpse clan cannot be changed, and the little girl is unwilling to give up, and she can only resign herself to fate, the corpse clan has been amazing and gorgeous for thousands of years, and she may not have the possibility of survival."
"But ......."
"Okay, I'm tired, you go!"
The stone slab clattered three times, and the soul Xiaotian left here lonely.
Although he had known that this was the result, he still couldn't hide his frustration when he got out of Chu Xiong's residence, so he had no choice but to ask for his own master.
Walking on the stone road of the dense forest, a depressed village in the mountain col faintly appeared, Soul Xiaotian stood on his heels and looked up, where the orphans of the Seven Clans were placed, and now in the barbarian domain, only the Bone Clan and the Soul Clan still have a little awe of Grandpa, and the rest of the Seven Clans are very hostile to themselves and Eye, Soul Xiaotian did not blame them, after all, it was under the leadership of Eye that the Seven Clans came to the point of imminent annihilation.
As he was in a trance, suddenly there was a sharp sound of breaking wind behind his head, and Soul Xiaotian turned around sharply, and the stone that shot left a bloody mark on his cheek.
Although he was annoyed, he didn't chase the fleeing black shadow, touched the bloody scars, Soul Xiaotian was afraid for a while, just this time to let himself hang the color, that stone ceremony is a pillar of incense time, dozens of people throw, how can Sister Ning'er persevere?
After strengthening her belief, Soul Xiaotian quickened her pace, and after the sun set tomorrow, she would be put on the altar.
In the stream, the two children are holding back the face of the red, really can't hold on to the water to stretch out the water for a few breaths, but as long as the two show their heads, a group of baby fist-sized tiger peaks on the water surface will surround them, the two can't stand the bite of the poisonous peak and have to dive into the water again, several times down the two have been bitten all over the head is full of bags, what is more terrible is that the toxin of the tiger peak began to attack, and the two began to faintly numb above the neck, and then go on like this I am afraid that it will be more auspicious.
Grunt, a shorter child began to be confused, drank a few mouthfuls of water, the taller child saw that the situation was not good, hurriedly grabbed his arm and bit it hard, the young man's whole body trembled in pain, and after regaining his senses, he put his head out of the water regardless of it, but only changed his breath and was pulled into the water by the young man.
Soon after, their eyes began to drift, and at the same time they showed a look of despair, and even the taller children let go of their clenched lips, and still poured white bubbles from the stream into their bellies.
With a bang, a white light flashed, and the hovering tiger peak was hit by a mysterious hidden weapon, and one fell into the stream.
Ahem, cough, cough, the two children had to be rescued from the water and coughed violently, and after the two of them calmed down, they realized that the black shadow standing on the shore was Soul Xiaotian.
The short boy gasped for breath and shouted happily to the shore: "Brother Xiaotian, you saved us!" ”
The other boy stooped down and dug out a muddy rock from the bottom of the water and threw it at him.
"Get out! You get out of here, even if I Ruan Yin is stung to death, I don't want you to save me. ”
Soul Xiaotian clenched his five fingers, his face was even colder, but he didn't say anything, turned around and left silently.
Ruan Yin seemed to be angry, turned to his younger brother and yelled, "You are not allowed to call him brother in the future." ”
Ruan Fangwa cried, "It's all your fault, you have to come to pick honey, if it's not Brother Xiaotian, we will all die here." ”
"Didn't you shout hungry? Now blame me, I repeat, you are not allowed to call him brother. ”
The younger brother Ruan Fang cried even more fiercely, "I won't listen to you, my mother said that I want to repay you, he saved us, I just want to call him brother." ”
Hearing him mention his mother, Ruan Yin's eyes instantly dimmed, wiped his nose, and went up the tree alone to dig honey, the hive of the tiger bee was huge, which was enough for the two brothers to eat for several days, and soon after, Ruan Yin held the hive that adults did not dare to pick easily, and pulled his younger brother to disappear into the night.
With Ruan Yin's hatred, Soul Xiaotian came to the outside of Soul Soul's room, and before he could push the door, he heard a sigh from inside the room. At this moment, Soul Xiaotian was a little relieved, he suddenly didn't hate Ruan Yin, the first of the seven clans to be killed by Binggu was the Ruan Yin brothers' raccoon tribe, when the raccoon tribe was encircled and suppressed in the Central Plains, more than 500 people were all killed, leaving only some old and young women and children, including Ruan Yin's father, after the scarred Eye came back, knelt in front of the statue and slapped himself all night.
Ruan Yin is a person of the Raccoon tribe, how could he not know the ferocity of Tiger Peak, adults are stung a few times, they are either dead or injured, if they are not hungry, who wants to provoke that poison.
"Come in!"
Just thinking about it, a familiar voice came from the room, and Soul Xiaotian pushed the door in, and saw that Eye was carrying himself on his back, and the seven spotless spiritual positions he faced were stunned.
"Eye......"
"I've heard everything."
Soul Xiaotian's lips were half-opened and he didn't make a sound, and after a while, he only heard the figure say slowly: "Don't say that the doll voluntarily accepted the stone ceremony, even if she doesn't want to, I can't let the Feng family cut off the incense." ”
Soul Xiaotian's eyes instantly widened, his lips opened wider, he guessed that his grandfather would not help him, but he didn't expect that his grandfather's idea was even more absolute, and he knelt down with a poof.
"I'm sorry for the Barbarian Domain, and I'm even more sorry for the Wu Clan and the Corpse Clan, I can't let them lose this last trace of blood."
Soul Xiaotian choked up instantly: "But Sister Ning'er will die, you know, she doesn't have the secret method of the corpse clan to protect her body, she is not even as good as Ruan Yin Ruan Fang, there is no one weaker than her in the Nine Clans, she will really die!" ”
Soul Shen didn't turn around, but said something that made Soul Xiaotian even more chilled: "You don't know the corpse clan, the real avenue of the corpse clan is to enter the corpse after death, the corpse clan has not been powerful for many years, it is no one who has done this, maybe that doll can ......"
"No, Eye, I don't want Ning'er to be in the body after death, I just want my sister to live."
Soul Xiaotian supported the ground with his palms, and his arms began to tremble slightly, he knew the temperament of Eye, since he said so, he was afraid that he would not change, and sure enough, the figure did not move.
Soul Xiaotian slowly put his head close to the ground, knocked hard a few times, and said pleadingly:
"Eye, I haven't had a father and mother since I was a child, only Sister Ning'er accompanies me, even if she is not my own sister, she is closer than my own sister, I have never begged you, this time I beg you to save Ning'er."
Not only did the figure not relax, but said sharply: "Soul Xiaotian, what is the seventh article of the Soul Clan's ancestral training?" ”
Soul Xiaotian wept and replied with a whimper: "The seventh article of the Soul Clan's ancestral teaching, the Soul Clan's men can die or be destroyed, and they must not pray for mercy from others. ”
"So what are you looking at now?"
"No, Eye, I know the secret method of the corpse clan, it is very difficult to enter the corpse after death, Sister Ning'er will really die, I can't let her accept the stone ceremony."
"Eye, you are the Soul Venerable, the head of the Nine Clans, they all have to listen to you, as long as you say a word, Sister Ning'er will definitely give up, please, let her give up!" In the future, you can punish me however you want, and I am willing to practice no matter how hard I practice, I just ask you to save her......"
But no matter how Soul Xiaotian broke his heart and intestines, how he kowtowed and prayed, the person in the high hall did not move as if he was petrified, and after Soul Xiaotian said the words of prayer that he could think of, he was completely dead, and finally he suddenly got up and said angrily: "Aren't you just afraid of being infamous?" Have you carried less over the years? Why can't you think about me once, if Ning'er dies, I will never forgive you for the rest of my life. ”
Soul Xiaotian slammed the door and walked out, holding his knees and gasping without running a few steps, "Big deal....... Big deal, I'll run away with her, and even then, I can't let her die. ”
However, a loud voice came from behind him, cutting off the last trace of his thoughts.
"Tomorrow the sun sets, the corpse clan Feng Ning'er accepts the stone ceremony, if the soul Xiaotian dares to interfere, the clan rules will be punished."
Long after Soul Xiaotian left, the old man sat down on the ground and said to himself bitterly, "Infamy? What kind of thing is that, I'm afraid that these nine clans can't even keep the last trace of integrity. ”
Wandering all the way, Soul Xiaotian's mind was full of Feng Ning'er's shadow when she was a child, when she first came to the cottage, she didn't dare to speak, she didn't dare to see people, no one played with him, other children threw her with mud when they saw her, saying that she was mute, saying that she was a little zombie, only herself protected her, and from then on, there was no one else in her eyes, only her Xiaotian brother.
Stumbling back, the figure was already waiting for him on the steps, it seemed that he had been waiting for a long time, Soul Xiaotian pretended to be calm and walked in front of her, a cold wind blew, and the drizzle drifted away. Feng Ning'er took his hand and sat down, and the two looked up at the sky together, after a long time, Feng Ning'er smiled brightly and asked suspiciously: "Brother Xiaotian, you say, why are there dark clouds?" ”
Soul Xiaotian swallowed his throat and said in a low voice: "When I was a child, my mother told me that when the white clouds are unhappy, they will turn black, and when they become black, it will rain. ”
"Oh!"
Feng Ning'er snorted and said loudly: "Then you can't turn into a black cloud in the future, okay?" ”
Soul Xiaotian gradually clenched her palm, squeezing out a 'um' word that he couldn't even hear clearly between his teeth, and the rain fell on his face little by little until it was blurred.
