On the way back, Lie Yankong asked Shui Linglong, "Maybe something happened to the Huangquan Sect?" ”

Shui Linglong said, "No." Not only did they close the mountain, but they also set up a shielding barrier, so that my Xuanguang mirror couldn't see what was going on inside! ”

Lu Ming asked, "Do you need me to take a trip?" ”

After thinking for a while, Lie Yan said, "Since the Huangquan Sect dares to close the mountain and put itself out of the matter, it won't help to go now, I'm afraid that it's not so simple behind it." Judging from the drought situation here, it is estimated that the day of the birth of the drought is in these two days, rather than going to eat closed-door soup, it is better to go to Hongquan Mountain to see what is going on. ”

Lu Ming didn't continue to insist after hearing this, they didn't know what the city lord and Li Yu reminded them of, but as outstanding disciples of the Great Sword Qingshan, Huoyang Sect, and Shenshui Palace, they had the confidence and certainty to retreat when they couldn't eliminate the drought.

The three of them quickly returned to the town, and Lie Yan wanted Li Yu to take them to Hongquan Mountain, and by the way, to find out if there was anything more detailed. Before leaving, Li Yu said that he would let them wait and say that he was going to get something.

This town is not far from Hongquan Mountain, so it has become a dead town as early as the beginning, those who should have escaped have fled, and those who have not escaped have died, and in the face of life, things outside the body are not so important, which is why Li Yu can still find food to survive in these three months.

The three of them were not worried about his safety, but seeing that Li Yu was determined to go, they asked Lu Ming to accompany him, and Lie Yankong and Shui Linglong checked around the town again.

Lu Ming saw that every time Li Yu walked into a house, he put the broken silver in his arms on the table, and after walking through a dozen houses, Lu Ming finally couldn't help asking, "Didn't you say before that you came to the town to find food?" ”

"But didn't you give me four biscuits before!"

Lu Ming didn't expect to get such an answer, and he was a little sneering for a while, and it didn't take long for him to continue to ask, "Then what are you doing here to put money on the table?" ”

Li Yu replied, "I took their things before, and my grandmother told me that if you don't ask, you are stealing, but stealing is wrong, and now I give them money, it is not stealing." ”

Lu Ming said, "But have you ever thought that they may have died and will not come back, you put the money here, in case someone else takes it away?" ”

Li Yu said, "I know they may not come back, but I just want to have peace of mind by doing this." ”

After hearing this, Lu Ming no longer only sympathized with and cherished his talents, but also affirmed his character. In this troubled era, if you want to survive, you can't use any means, no one will have too high moral requirements for a person who wants to live, but Li Yu can abide by his own moral standards while ensuring that he lives, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

After thinking for a moment, he continued to ask, "Then you planned to return the money to them in the first place, so you brought this silver with you?" ”

Li Yu nodded, "I don't ask if I have taken it for so many days, and I should return it." Bringing the money over today is to give yourself an account. ”

Lu Ming felt strange when he heard this, but that strange feeling was fleeting, and he slipped away without grabbing it.

Finally, Li Yu finished all the people he should go to and finally entered a grocery store, Lu Ming was curious why the last one was a grocery store. I saw Li Yu rummaging around, and finally found some wine in a wine urn, poured some wine into the bamboo tube, and then rummaged around, found some white paper that had not been cut, and turned out some paper money and incense sticks from other people's rooms, and found some ropes one after another, and put all the last money on the counter.

"What are you doing with these things?" Lu Ming asked,

Li Yu didn't answer, and silently packed up his things.

Lu Ming saw his methodical appearance and knew that he had a plan and intention in his heart, since he didn't want to say it, Lu Ming didn't ask anymore.

Li Yu knew what he should do and what to do from beginning to end, judging from his performance, he didn't look like a five-year-old child at all, but he was really a five-year-old child. If nothing else, just looking at his composure shuttling between the dead and the broken house, it is hard to believe that this is what a five-year-old child can do, "Aren't you afraid at all?" Lu Ming asked as Li Yu was packing his things.

Li Yu said as he packed, "What is there to be afraid of." The living are much more terrifying than the dead. ”

Lu Ming was silent after hearing this, the child in front of him seemed to have suffered more than he thought.

Thinking of the grandma he had just revealed, Lu Ming asked, "Who is the grandma?" ”

Hearing Lu Ming ask him who Grandma was, Li Yu laughed for the first time, and he replied, "Grandma is the best person for me." ”

Seeing him answer with a smile, Lu Ming naturally understood that Grandma should be really good to him, and then asked, "I was very strange before, why don't you leave here?" ”

Li Yu's smile disappeared suddenly, and he replied in a deep voice, "Grandma can't go." She's dying. ”

Lu Ming was silent after hearing this, "Then why don't you leave?" ”

These words were just rhetorical questions, and there was no meaning in them, Li Yu could naturally hear that Lu Ming simply wanted to know the reason behind it, and there was no intention of probing.

"In this world, only Grandma is good to me, and I will not leave her."

Lu Ming saw him answer with his head down, he kept packing everything in his hands, and he didn't feel good in his heart, there are many last resorts in life, and there are many difficulties, it is not difficult to live, as long as he is ruthless enough, the most difficult thing is to still maintain his own heart and kindness to others.

After a while, Li Yu packed all the things on his body, Lu Ming wanted to help him get it, but Li Yu refused, and then Li Yu took out something from his arms and handed it to him, Lu Ming glanced at it It was a jade pendant, or rather, a high-ranking self-defense jade pendant. Lu Ming knew in his heart why the demons would turn a blind eye to him.

Li Yu looked at the jade pendant in the palm of his hand and said with some seriousness, "You asked me if I knew why those monsters would let me go, and I didn't answer directly, but I guess it should be because of it." Now I'll give him to you, I know you're going to Hongquan Mountain, and I know you're supposed to be very powerful, but it's the only thing I can take out of me that might help you. ”

Lu Ming glanced at the jade pendant, but didn't take it, he looked at Li Yu and looked up at him, his eyes were full of sincerity, and he asked Li Yu, "Are you really willing to give it to me?" ”

Li Yu nodded.

Lu Ming laughed and continued, "You may not know that this jade pendant is a high-ranking self-defense jade pendant, if it is described as worldly finance, it can buy this town. ”

After hearing this, Li Yu did not hesitate, or had the intention of withdrawing his hand, he still stretched out his hand and nodded.

Lu Ming saw that Li Yu was so serious, and he also became serious, and he asked Li Yu, "Is it my reward for baking cakes?" ”

Li Yu looked at him sincerely and replied, "Yes." Grandma said that you can't take the kindness of others for granted. ”

Lu Ming said with emotion, "Your grandma is really an amazing person. ”

Li Yu responded proudly, "Grandma has always been such a person. ”

After a pause, Lu Ming knew that Li Yu didn't want to owe him, but how could he be a person who liked to take advantage of others, so he said seriously, "I know you don't want to owe me, but I also don't like to owe others." If you asked me to exchange a few biscuits for such a precious jade pendant, I can't take it. What's more, we also get the information we want from you, and you don't owe anything to each other, so don't feel indebted. ”

Li Yu was a little reluctant after hearing this, Lu Ming looked at him, and continued, "It's a good thing that you don't like to owe others, but you also have to understand that the husband is not guilty of his crimes, you casually show such a precious thing to others, in case others have bad intentions towards you and want to take it for yourself regardless of morality, what can you do?" ”

After Li Yu heard this, he looked at him silently, Lu Ming knew that with Li Yu's intelligence, he would definitely be able to understand what he meant, but he couldn't accept it for a while, he smiled gently at Li Yu, then touched his head, and said, "It's okay if you can't accept it now, I will teach you slowly in the future." ”

Lu Ming asked him to take back the jade pendant, and then the two went back together, but the difference was that when they went, they were one in front and one behind, Li Yu was in front and Lu Ming was behind; When he came back, Lu Ming took Li Yu's hand and walked slowly.

This made Li Yu a little cramped, when he was sensible, except for his grandmother who would hold his hand like this, Lu Ming was the second, he was a little dazed, a little trance, and a little moved, but he still wanted to pull his hand out subconsciously, Lu Ming held it tightly, which made Li Yu have a sense of security that he hadn't had for a long time. Since Grandma fell ill, Li Yu had to live carefully, because he could only keep Grandma alive if he ensured that he was alive.

When Lie Yankong and Shui Linglong saw this picture, they suddenly knew in their hearts that Lu Ming was recognizing Li Yu, as long as Li Yu agreed, the Great Sword Qingshan would usher in the second sword embryo they knew. Both of them tacitly glanced at each other, once Li Yu entered the Great Sword Qingshan, the position of the Great Sword Qingshan in the next ten years will be more stable, as long as these two people grow up in front of them, then they are the two sharpest swords on the face of the Great Sword Qingshan.

Shui Linglong certainly wants to get Li Yu, and Lie Yankong is even more so, there has always been competition between sects, and there are also corresponding competitions between different factions within the sect, if anyone can get Li Yu, it is equivalent to getting a sharp sword, and what the sword points to is not disadvantageous.

But there is also a fate for the matter of accepting apprentices, it was originally Lu Ming who sensed Li Yu, through a short period of getting along, it is not difficult to see that Li Yu is a very vigilant child, but since he is close to Lu Ming, it is naturally the fate between them, although the two are unwilling, but they are also powerless, at least for now, but before the end, who dares to say that it will develop as they expected!

The four of them didn't stay any longer, the matter was important, and it wasn't long before they returned to the small village. When the three of them were in mid-air, they could feel the sense of oppression brought by Hongquan Mountain, and when they fell to the ground and saw Hongquan Mountain in front of them with their own eyes, the disgust and eagerness to draw their swords against each other became even stronger.

The little beast that Shui Linglong was carrying with her was also howling, and the three of them understood that Hongquan Mountain was the place where a strange treasure was born, and it was more likely that the disaster in this place was related to the strange treasure.

At this time, the middle-aged Taoist had disappeared, and after the four of them returned to Li Yu's home, Li Yu still went first to offer the baked cakes in his arms to the land to enjoy as always.

The land was sensed when the four of them entered the village, so they waited on the sidelines, and when the three of them saw that Li Yu was busy with their own business, they didn't pay much attention to him, and called the land over for questioning.

"The land of this village greets the three immortals!" The land saluted forward.

Lie Yankong waved his hand and said, "The situation is urgent, let's ask you directly, do you know the origin of the monsters in Hongquan Mountain?" ”

The land shook his head and said, "Little old man doesn't know. To tell the truth, Xiao Lao'er has only been in charge of the land in this village for more than 50 years, and he doesn't know what happened before Hongquan Mountain. Judging from this disaster, the source of this disaster is a drought that has been cultivated for a hundred years. ”

Shui Linglong asked, "The Drought Fish Cultivation will absorb the water qi of the four directions, and you are not even aware of the land here?" ”

Land Road. "Little Lao'er really doesn't know. Since Xiao Lao'er took charge of the land, this place has been smooth and rainy, and the water is abundant, but I really don't know that there is a drought fish hidden in Hongquan Mountain. ”

Lie Yankong asked, "According to the custom, the land gods are shared by the mountain spirits who have achieved cultivation or the virtuous old men who have died in the local area, and seeing your transformation, it should be the second type, so you don't know if anything unusual happened to Hongquan Mountain during your lifetime?" ”

The land replied, "Xiao Lao'er did live here before his death, but from birth to death, I never heard the elders in the village say that there are demons in Hongquan Mountain!" After the disaster, I vaguely guessed that it was a drought, and I went to check the local village chronicle, but I didn't find anything abnormal. ”

"Where's the village? Bring it to us. ”

The land hurriedly took out the village chronicle and handed it to the three people, and after the three of them read it carefully, they found that a hundred years ago, this small village had been ransacked by a gang of thieves, in addition to burning, killing and looting, they also committed atrocities against a family, and the thieves tortured the owner of the family to death in front of the daughter of the family, and then took turns to commit violence against the woman, and finally the woman hanged herself because of this catastrophe. The villagers were afraid that the family would be very angry, so they invited a priest to burn down the family.

After reading this village chronicle, the three of them all realized in their hearts that according to the conditions, that woman was the best person who could be used to refine the corpse, but also according to the village chronicle, it was also the most unlikely, because the corpse had been burned and turned into ashes.

But what if, all this is intentional? If the corpse was not burned, but was buried in the depths of Hongquan Mountain, and a formation shield was also set up, then no one would know about this rebellion.

They can guess that there are too many extraordinary people here, and they are also the ghosts behind the last words of the city lord.

All the evidence is hidden in the body of the monster in Hongquan Mountain, to solve this trouble, the ghost behind it will surface, and the hundred-year plan will be completed in one day, and no one will watch it be destroyed by others.

The three of them thought of the pictures they had seen along the way, and when they thought of someone acting like this, they felt bad in their hearts, cultivation was naturally a matter of heaven and creation, but no matter how against the sky, they couldn't disregard human life in vain.

Lie Yankong was a little deeper than they thought, and he was more worried about whether there was a deeper force behind this matter. A mere Huangquan Sect didn't dare to make such a big move, and what big people were manipulating behind it, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was afraid that he had encountered an extremely tricky thing this time.

Lu Ming glanced at Li Yu in front of the statue of the land, and said to the land, "Do you know that child? ”

The land glanced at Lu Ming, then hurriedly lowered his head, thinking that Li Yu had come back with Lu Ming and them before, so he guessed that it might be something good for Li Yu, so he told everything he knew.

After the three of them listened, Shui Linglong said, "It's kind and righteous, it's good." ”

Lie Yankong said, "Don't forget your heart, it's of great use." ”

Lu Ming didn't say anything, he silently looked at Li Yu who was sitting in front of the statue of the land god, and didn't say a word, Shui Linglong asked strangely, "Doesn't Senior Brother Lu think this son is good?" ”

Lu Ming shook his head and said, "I was thinking that he had experienced so much at such a young age, and it might be a bad thing to be too premature." ”

Shui Linglong didn't understand what he meant, and asked, "How can you talk about this?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a feeling." Lu Ming obviously didn't want to talk about this topic, in fact, just now he thought of Li Yu's previous sentence to explain, and suddenly felt that he was afraid that this kid's heart was already 。。。。。。
