Since he was separated from Ye Suiyun in Chang'an, Li Xiangqiu found Dihua Palace alone and secretly infiltrated to investigate. ｗ?ｗｗ?． r?a?n?w?ena'c?om She knew that this red-clothed sect was full of masters, and there were crises buried everywhere, so she acted extremely carefully, and never dared to make a big show until she got Nie Xiaotian's whereabouts. As a result, she has not gained much in a few years. Although she had secretly kidnapped a few believers and forced them to interrogate, what she asked happened more than 20 years ago, and those believers knew nothing. Afterwards, in order to prevent leakage of his whereabouts, Li Xiangqiu often killed the disciples and exterminated them, but fortunately, there were many people in the Cardinal Sect, and they were indifferent and numb to each other, even if they found that someone was missing, they would not be able to do so in the end. Three years have passed in a blink of an eye, just when Li Xiangqiu's patience is gradually losing time, he suddenly saw Ye Suiyun's figure from a distance on this day, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and was about to say hello, but he was surprised to find that Assasin was also walking with him. Li Xiangqiu was puzzled, so he secretly followed, until he came to Li Ducheng, hid in the dark and heard the conversation of several people, only to know that he finally found Nie Xiaotian, who was in his heart. Seeing Nie Xiaotian, who was now unrecognizable, Li Xiangqiu's tears fell like droplets of broken threads.

Nie Xiaotian only nodded and said, "Thank you." Turning around and looking at Ye Suiyun blankly for a moment, a smile finally appeared on his hideous face, patted Ye Suiyun on the back vigorously, and said continuously: "Okay. . . Good... Good boy... Attaboy. As he spoke, there were tears in his eyes, which were only half normal.

Nie Xiaotian slapped Dai Shi on the back of the shoulder a few times with a unique technique, and said: "This 'Original Sin Binding Acupoint Technique' is Assasin's unique martial arts, similar to our Central Plains point acupoints, and this trick was also on me back then. I saw that Dai Shi gradually regained consciousness and breathed a sigh of relief. Li Xiangqiu helped her up and gently fed her water.

Nie Xiaotian asked, "What about Guixiang's mother?" Ye Suiyun's expression darkened, and he told him about his grandmother's death. Nie Xiaotian let out a long sigh and was silent.

Ye Suiyun finally reunited with his father, and his heart was full of joy, which was difficult to express. In order not to make his father sad, he took the initiative to talk about his life with his grandmother when he was a child, and this talk went on endlessly, during which Nie Xiaotian listened very seriously and nodded from time to time. After talking about the experience after getting acquainted with Gu Lingling, Ye Suiyun remembered the encounter of almost killing two red-clothed disciples in Changshou Village, sighed, and said: "The child really never dreamed that it was his father who saved my life in danger back then. I've been looking for my dad all these years. Nie Xiaotian seemed to have forgotten, and his expression was blank.

Ye Suiyun described in detail what happened next, how he learned the internal skills of Qiuyu, and how he inadvertently saved Guo Yan, thus becoming the leader of the beggar gang. When talking about assisting Qixiufang to defeat the saltless water thief, he suddenly thought of the poor woman Chun Mei, he took out the wooden comb he had been carrying on his body, looked at it carefully, and said slowly: "It turns out that Chun Mei's life-saving benefactor is also Daddy." This doubt, which had been bothering him for many years, finally had an answer at this time. I only blame my elm head for being too unbright, otherwise I should have thought at that time, in addition to myself, if it weren't for my father Nie Xiaotian, where would I find a second person who would descend the dragon palm in this world. It won't be a waste of time later.

Nie Xiaotian didn't react to Chun Mei's matter, and seemed to be outside the gods, and said: "After Brother Tuoba reshaped the meridians, he cultivated the internal strength for the second time, and its power was indeed extraordinary. But after all, he is already a damaged body, and Qiu Yu's internal strength training to the point of eighty percent is already at the end. If, as you said, you have absorbed all the true qi of the autumn rain, why does your skill seem to be inferior to him? ”

Ye Suiyun said the cause and effect of the decline of his skills, and when he talked about what he encountered in the Valley of the Wicked, Nie Xiaotian interrupted: "You said that the Valley of the Wicked is going south with all its might? Ye Suiyun nodded, and Nie Xiaotian asked, "Why is this?" Ye Suiyun explained the dispute between the two alliances that is now in full swing, and then talked about Leng Xiaoxiao's worries about the imperial court, and finally said: "When the war between the two alliances starts, when Li Linfu, the traitor, will definitely take the army and start an incident, no matter whether he succeeds or not, it will be a situation in which the country will be shaken." The child only knows that the chaos in the world is just around the corner, and he only hates his own weak strength and is powerless to stop it. ”

Nie Xiaotian has lived in the Valley of Corpses for many years and has no knowledge of the outside world, so he doesn't know anything about what Ye Suiyun said. He was silent for a long time and asked, "Wang Yifeng shouldn't be such a confused person, what does he say?" Ye Suiyun said: "The child also tried to persuade the king's predecessors to stop fighting, but he said that he had no way out. I think I'm determined to fight this battle. ”

Nie Xiaotian looked up after hearing this, and said, "It's not early, those ghost things are about to come out, you come with me." Ye Suiyun glanced at the corpses not far away, and asked, "Daddy, you mean there are more corpses?" Nie Xiaotian picked up the black coffin on the ground and snorted, "I just killed a few." It's early. Ye Suiyun carried Wei Qiwu on his back, and Li Xiangqiu supported Dai Shi, who was still flexible in his legs and feet, and followed Nie Xiaotian to a manor in the abandoned city. The walls of the manor are intact and solid, and there are traces of restoration in many places, and this is Nie Xiaotian's residence. When I entered the inside, I saw that the courtyard was not cluttered, clean and tidy, and several people couldn't help but feel refreshed.

Nie Xiaotian said to Ye Suiyun: "Rest here for a night, tomorrow at dawn, Ah Yun, you go to a place with me, I hope it's still too late." Ye Suiyun wanted to ask again, but Nie Xiaotian had already walked away, staring at the sky in a daze. In the evening, I heard a terrifying howl in the city, Ye Suiyun knew that this must have been made by countless corpses, the cry was like a wolf not a wolf, like a ghost not a ghost, only a few people listened to the scalp numb, Dai Shi leaned closely against Ye Suiyun and did not dare to breathe. The screams were flickering and approaching, and it was conceivable that the corpses were wandering around, but fortunately, the gate of the courtyard where they were located was deep and the walls were intact, and the corpses could not break in.

As night fell, everyone noticed that Nie Xiaotian was different from the daytime, and it seemed that something was wrong. When he spoke, he always stopped suddenly, in a daze. Or Ye Suiyun and the others talked for a long time, but he didn't seem to hear a word, but muttered to himself. What frightened Dai Shi the most was that Nie Xiaotian's eyes widened from time to time, trembling all over, as if he was trying his best to suppress and resist something, and every time he arrived, he quickly meditated on his knees, and after a while, he calmed down.

Seeing that Ye Suiyun's face was full of worry, Li Xiangqiu stepped forward and comforted: "Your father has been poisoned by corpses for many years, and although he has saved his life, the poison will still attack from time to time. Listening to the voices of the corpses outside, I think that this poison is especially powerful at night. Ye Suiyun smiled reluctantly. He looked up and saw a bright moon hanging high in the night sky.

At this time, Nie Xiaotian outside the hall said: "What Qiu Mei said is good. I saw that his luck had been completed, and his breath seemed to be a little better. Ye Suiyun hurriedly went to support his father and asked the reason.

It turned out that after the battle of Tianzi Peak that year, Assasin brought the unconscious Nie Xiaotian back to Dihua Palace. Intend to refine it into a corpse. It must be known that if the person who is trained as a corpse is a higher martial arts, the stronger the power will be after refining, and a top master like Nie Xiaotian is the ultimate good material, which is hard to find.

What Assasin didn't expect was that Nie Xiaotian's skill was high enough to resist the corpse poison, and he was soaked in poisonous water for 7749 days, but there was no change at all. Assasin secretly wondered, and aggravated the medicinal properties. One day, Nie Xiaotian woke up and found that he was surrounded by victims who had been soaked in poisonous water, and what worried him the most was that his wife Li Zhiying was also among them. Nie Xiaotian had just woken up at that time, and his physical strength had not recovered, so he had to endure the grief in his heart and pretend to be still asleep. During this period, the corpses around him that had been refined were sent out one by one, and he was the only one who stayed in the dungeon. After a few more days, when Nie Xiaotian finally felt that his strength had recovered, he showed his might, tore off the iron locks, killed the guards, and broke out of the palace. After learning that all the corpses had been sent to Li Ducheng, he rushed straight here, and after three days and three nights of searching, he finally found his wife in the corpses.

At this time, Assasin had also followed suit, and at that time, Nie Xiaotian had been injured and poisoned repeatedly, and his skills were only seventy percent left, and the two of them had a big battle, regardless of victory or defeat. Assasin saw the failure and remorse, he did not expect that there would be a corpse in the world, and secretly thought that he should have killed this person with a knife to prevent future troubles, but at that time there was nothing to be done. Before leaving, he said to Nie Xiaotian: "Although your skill is high, after all, you have been poisoned into your body, although the signs are not obvious in the short term, but if you come into contact with people, the other party will definitely be poisoned." There are not many people in this world who are as powerful as you. After leaving this sentence, he left.

Where would Nie Xiaotian believe it, only if this was Assasin's wild words after his defeat. He found a wooden coffin, locked his wife on his back, and planned to find his son Ye Suiyun. But on the way to meet a herd of cattle old man, after the two of them talked, used the same water bag to drink, the old man drank a few sips, his face changed, convulsions fell to the ground, not long before he died. Nie Xiaotian was shocked, and when he looked at it, he found that he had been poisoned by the corpse. Only then did he realize that what Assasin said was not deceiving himself.

In this way, Nie Xiaotian dispelled the idea of seeing his son again, thinking that he was highly poisonous, how could he live as an ordinary person, if he returned rashly, he was afraid that everyone around him would not escape the doom. In addition, his wife has become a corpse, and he is afraid that it will be difficult to be accepted by the world, so after thinking about it, he returned to Lidu City with a coffin on his back and lived for more than 20 years. During this period, he picked fruits and hunted every day, fed his wife with animal blood, and never allowed her to go out and harm people. When he saw someone in distress nearby, he came to the rescue.

Nie Xiaotian refused to leave Li Ducheng, and after investigating the reason, there was actually another reason. In the depths of his heart, he always holds a glimmer of hope, in line with the principle that all things are born and restrained, and the so-called poisonous snake must have antidote herbs within a hundred steps. Therefore, he hoped that in this place where corpses were infested, he would finally find an antidote and restore his wife to her former state.

As the corpse poison grew deeper and deeper in his body, Nie Xiaotian's physical appearance changed dramatically, and half of his body gradually turned into a corpse. Moreover, the corpse poison continued to consume his true qi, and his skills were long gone. Perhaps it is precisely because of the internal force and the corpse poison that the toxicity is gradually not suppressed, and in recent days, it has flare-up at night. But fortunately, as time goes by, the toxicity seems to have been locked in the body and no longer infects others.

When Ye Suiyun heard this, he couldn't cry anymore, he looked at the black coffin in the courtyard that shook from time to time, and stopped talking. Nie Xiaotian sighed and said, "I locked your mother, one is that I don't want her to hurt people, and the other is that I hope that one day I can find the antidote." ”

When Dai Shi heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Senior, can this poison have a cure?" ”

Nie Xiaotian said: "This corpse poison is from the secret transmission of the Yunnan Tianyi Sect "Corpse Curse", and the origin of the corpse curse comes from the mysterious Five Poisons Sect. A few years ago, I met two young Miaojiang women, they collected venom from corpses, I showed up and asked them what they were doing, the two girls said that they were members of the Five Poisons Sect, and they were collecting antidotes that could restrain corpse poison... Ye Suiyun's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "It's Ah Youduo and Feng Yao." Nie Xiaotian was even more curious: "You know them, it seems that these two names are called by them." ”

Ye Suiyun said: "The child remembered that he had seen these two women in White Emperor City, and they were collecting a strange snake venom at that time, which was said to be to develop a restraint for corpse venom. I vaguely remember their words, and it seemed that there was a great hope for a cure, but I don't know if it had succeeded so far. The more Ye Suiyun spoke, the more excited he became, and said to Nie Xiaotian: "Wait for the child to immediately set off to find the Yunnan Five Poisons Sect and bring back the corpse poison antidote." Dai Shi also said, "I will go with you." ”

Nie Xiaotian said: "Whether there is an antidote or not is still unknown, and it is not in a hurry." But now you have something more important. Seeing Ye Suiyun's inquiring look, Nie Xiaotian said, "You'll know with me tomorrow." ”

At dawn, the rooster in the distance reported the dawn, and the tide of corpses dispersed. Several people left Lidu City and hurried north. On the way, Dai Shi approached Ye Suiyun and asked, "Niu Wazi, how old did you say Assasin was?" Ye Suiyun thought for a while and said, "Extrapolating from the age of Elder Yi and Mr. Lu, plus the fact that he had participated in the Battle of the Son of Heaven Peak, there should be at least sixty or so now. Dai Shi nodded and said, "Yes, I said the same, but I can't figure out why he looks so young, like a thirty-year-old person." Ye Suiyun muttered: "Yesterday he said that he had penetrated the life and death of yin and yang, I think it may not be all crazy words, maybe the mystery is in it." Or maybe ... He wanted to say that it had something to do with Assasin's penchant for men, but he didn't think it was appropriate, so he stopped.

Nie Xiaotian heard what the two of them said, and said, "This guy is indeed much younger, and he doesn't know what evil skills he has practiced. Li Xiangqiu was stunned, not knowing what she was thinking.

At noon, Ye Suiyun only felt that the objects in front of him were becoming more and more familiar, and when he was confused, he suddenly heard someone ask, "Who are you?" The one who spoke was a girl with a sickle in her hand and a bamboo basket on her back, looking at everyone vigilantly. Ye Suiyun saw that the girl was a little familiar, and when she was trying to remember, she heard someone else: "Xiumei, who are you talking to." I saw a blind woman walking with a bamboo cane.

When Ye Suiyun saw the blind girl, he immediately remembered that this was Jiangjin Village, no wonder the surroundings were familiar, and he shouted: "Aunt Yue, is it you?" The blind girl was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who are you?" "It turned out to be Bao Yueniang.

Ye Suiyun said: "I'm Ye Suiyun, Aunt Yue, I haven't forgotten the yellow-faced dumplings you made." As he spoke, he turned his head to the girl and said, "Xiumei, have you forgotten me?" Xiumei was also stunned, and said happily: "Brother Suiyun, it's you." "If Ye Suiyun hadn't taken back Qingxue Dan back then, Xiumei would have been unable to survive. Although many years have passed, she still remembers the name of this life-saving benefactor.

Nie Xiaotian said at this time: "It turns out that you all know each other. As soon as he spoke, Bao Yueniang immediately recognized the person who spoke, and said happily: "Murong Daxia, you are here too." Nie Xiaotian said: "Let's go, let's go back to the village." ”

When the group came to Jiangjin Village, Ye Suiyun returned to his hometown, thinking of the ragged young man back then, it was like a world away.

Bao Muxia and others also rushed over when they heard the news, and when they saw Ye Suiyun, they all smiled happily, and they all talked about the events of the year. Orion Liu Hu said: "This kid was only a teenager back then, but he already looked like a hero, and he had to fight with me and Lao Bao. The crowd laughed.

Seeing that everyone was elated, Ye Suiyun quietly pulled Xiu Mei aside, took out Chun Mei's wooden comb and handed it to her, and said, "This is what your sister left for you, it's just that I didn't send it back to you earlier." Xiumei's face was full of surprise and surprise, and she gently held the wooden comb, and her tears couldn't stop flowing. Ye Suiyun comforted: "She died of illness in the end, and I was by her side." He thought that the Si people had passed away, and he really didn't have to tell the truth about Chunmei's tragic situation.

After dinner, the villagers chatted and laughed in the courtyard. Nie Xiaotian took Ye Suiyun to Bao Muxia's house and said to Bao Muxia: "You, a Mingjiao Sanren, have also been comfortable for many years, it's time to move." Bao Muxia smiled and said, "I also thought of it in the next, otherwise Nie Daxia would not have come to me." Say, what's the matter? Ye Suiyun was surprised, he didn't expect Bao Muxia to be a member of the Ming Sect. But now is not the time to ask questions.

Nie Xiaotian said: "If it weren't for the stakes, how could I bear to let you, a person who is used to living a peaceful life, get involved in the disputes of the rivers and lakes again." ”

Bao Muxia said: "Your life was saved by you, so why don't you say more." Nie Xiaotian nodded and said, "Tomorrow, you will go on the road with my son and Suiyun, and take Yueniang to Nanping Mountain to see Wang Yifeng." This matter is related to the common people in the world and should not be neglected. After speaking, he looked at Ye Suiyun again and sighed: "I hope it's not too late." Ye Suiyun didn't know what his father meant, and was about to open his mouth full of questions, but he saw Nie Xiaotian's face change and rushed out of the house.

Ye Suiyun didn't know what was going on, and followed him to the outside of the house, and suddenly saw Assasin, who was dressed in a black robe, standing quietly in the empty place, looking at the night sky. I can't help but be secretly vigilant.

Nie Xiaotian said in a deep voice: "Assasin, what do you want to do with your ghost? ”

Assasin said softly: "It's a pity, old friend. No one can leave today. ”
