Chapter Ninety-Nine: Returning Home

"Treacherous boy!" scolded the skeleton unwillingly.

Xu Yunhe fell to the ground and didn't get up for a long time, the bones jumped down from the stone platform, and dragged Xu Yunhe with one hand.

Xu Yunhe's eyes were closed, his whole body was red, and he was already unconscious.

"The strength is not very good, but this perseverance, it is not bad to be my inheritor!Okay, it's you!" The skeleton reversed, holding Xu Yunhe's left foot with one hand, and turned him upside down.

The other paw slapped on the soles of Xu Yunhe's feet, and the red color of Xu Yunhe's whole body suddenly began to fade.

Xu Yunhe still didn't wake up, and the skeleton carried Xu Yunhe upside down, and jumped onto the stone platform.

Let go, Xu Yunhe was suspended in mid-air with his head and feet.

"It's over!" muttered the skeleton.

In the air, there was a hot breath rolling in, and the silvery-white light shot down from the stone stalactites in the sky, gathered on the surface of Xu Yunhe's body, and reflected Xu Yunhe's body into a translucent color.

The heat gradually subsided, and the skin on Xu Yunhe's body gradually returned to its normal complexion.

Xu Yunhe slowly opened his eyes.

"Thank you......" Xu Yunhe said weakly.

"This is also fate...... No thanks......" The skeleton smiled, the silver-white bony skeleton was much lighter in color.

"Do you have anything else to say? If you have any unfulfilled wishes, I can do my best to help you fulfill them!" Xu Yunhe said sincerely.

"Why, now that you know what I'm saying, don't you suspect me of a bad plan?" the skeleton still laughed.

"I never doubted it, but ...... I only have one master......," Xu Yunhe said.

"No need...... the skeleton shook his skull, "at least nearly a thousand years have passed now, and those people back then are no longer there...... She...... And walked ahead of me......"

The bones lost their usual laughter and impropriety, and there was more loneliness and heavy helplessness, as well as the hidden guilt.

Xu Yunhe closed his eyes, the original hot feeling had disappeared, and his body was warm, as if he was soaking in a hot spring, although it was on his head and feet, but there was no discomfort.

"If you can, when you go to the Holy Imperial City in the future, go to the tomb of Mo Lingxin in Huangqi Mountain in Dongcheng on my behalf, and tell her on my behalf...... I'm sorry...... Though...... It's too late......" the skeleton said suddenly.

Xu Yunhe opened his eyes and nodded heavily.

The skeleton shook its skull, and the translucent skeleton had gradually become transparent, getting lighter and lighter......

The silver in the sky is even brighter......

In the early morning, the morning light is faint.

On the eastern horizon, half of the fiery red sun was revealed. The bright sunlight shone over the land, turning half the sky with red clouds.

The night has disappeared, the grass and trees show their true bodies, the leaves, the branches and leaves, are scattered with a little dew, crystal clear, there are a few small flying insects, just stop between the grass stems, drink the coolness given by the heavens and the earth.

A new day has begun, and the grass, trees, fish and insects have all begun to wake up, and a new day of busyness has begun.

The surroundings were quiet, only on a stone next to it, and there was a person sitting.

It was a woman.

She was dressed in fiery red clothes, although there were many damages on them, and there was a lot of dirt on them, which did not affect her slender figure.

With one hand on her cheek, she stared silently ahead, like a statue, motionless.

The tips of her temples and eyebrows were stained with a little crystal dew. Apparently, she has been doing this here for a long time.

turned to her front, a snow-white face, delicate facial features, and a face that captivated the country and the city, but it couldn't hide the haggard of her face.

Look at her eyes, red, swollen and bloodshot, covered with bloodshots, obviously exhausted to the extreme, but stubbornly did not rest, still there staring ahead for a long time.

What's up ahead? It's just an unremarkable clearing, and it's no different from anywhere else, except that the weeds on it are more luxuriant.

But he was so focused, so distracted, that he fixed every qiē in this gaze.

On her lap stood a small bird. With fiery red feathers, a short beak, and a round body, it looks like a small quail, and a pair of small eyes are rolling around, and it looks very cute.

It is not as peaceful as its owner, with a small head dangling from side to side, and seems to be curious about all the qiē around it.

It's just that it didn't make any sound very interestingly, and although its little head was shaking around, it also stood quietly in place, keeping quiet.

In the silence, suddenly, there was a faint sound of footsteps behind him.

The beautiful girl was still staring at the ground in front of her, and her eyes didn't even change a bit.

The bird twisted its head, but was blocked by its master's body and saw nothing.

"What are you looking at?" a voice asked, as footsteps stopped behind him.

The girl still stared ahead, as if she hadn't heard at all.

The bird had jumped on the girl's shoulder, flapped its wings, and rushed towards the man behind her.

"Miss Duanmu, what's wrong with you?" said the voice closer, closer to the girl's ear.

Hearing this voice, the girl's delicate body suddenly trembled.

"Miss Duanmu, are you alright?" the footsteps sounded again, and one of them turned in front of her, blocking her view from looking ahead. In his arms, he was still holding the fiery red bird from before, and he was probing his head to his master for joy, looking very excited.

The girl looked up little by little, and her bloodshot eyes saw a familiar face.

"Duanmu girl?" the face moved closer, looked at the haggard look on her pretty face, and frowned slightly.

Looking at that familiar face, the girl's red eyes suddenly welled up with surging tears, and tears flowed with tears.

"What's going on? You're not going to be waiting here all the time, are you?" the man wondered.

The girl didn't say a word, but suddenly got up suddenly, opened her arms and hugged the person in front of her in her arms.

"What's wrong?, Duanmu girl?" the man asked, his body stiffening slightly.

The girl shook her head vigorously, but did not speak.

He didn't ask anymore, and he already felt a little wetness and coldness on his shoulder.

Crying, hugging, as long as that's it, that's enough.

"You won't be sitting here all the time, will you?" After calming Duanmu Feixue, Xu Yunhe exclaimed again.

Duanmu Feixue nodded, this was the third time she had nodded.

"You ......" Xu Yunhe looked at Duanmu Feixue in front of him helplessly, looking at her red and swollen eyes, not knowing what else he could say.

"I know you're not going to die, you're going to come out to see me......! I know ......" As she spoke, Duanmu Feixue had the intention of crying again.

Xu Yunhe hurriedly diverted the topic: "Now that I have come out, you should also leave here quickly and go home!"

"Don't you want to see me so much?" Duanmu Feixue looked at him aggrievedly, "Don't forget, you promised to be my brother!

Xu Yunhe smiled bitterly: "How can I mean that? It's just that I think that such a big thing has happened, and you haven't gone back for so long, your family must be worried about you! I hope you can go back as soon as possible to let your family rest assured!"

"I don't have a family, only my brother......! He's dead......" As he spoke, Duanmu Feixue's eyes turned red and he began to cry again.

Xu Yunhe had a big headache, it's too easy for the River of Tears to burst its banks, right?

He suddenly misses the frost beauty who was as cold as ice at the beginning, although cold, but at least it will not be as fragile as now, and he will drown himself with tears at every turn, right?

Xu Yunhe suddenly thought of what he had brought out this time, turned around, and ran back.

As soon as he ran away, Duanmu Feixue also stopped crying. She turned around curiously and watched Xu Yunhe running quickly alone.

It didn't take long for Xu Yunhe to run back again. It's just that when he came back, there was one more person on his back.

Xu Yunhe put down the person behind him, and when Duanmu Feixue looked at it, his eyes suddenly turned red again.

That's Duanmu Feiyu, to be exact, Duanmu Feiyu's corpse.

Seeing his brother's corpse again, even though it had been many days, Duanmu Feixue still couldn't control his feelings.

"You take him back! Your brother should also hope that Ye Luo will return to his roots!" Xu Yunhe looked at Duanmu Feixue, who was crying, and patted her on the shoulder.

"But you're a girl, you can't carry his ...... This is a bit difficult......" Xu Yunhe rubbed his chin, embarrassed.

"I can carry it, my brother, I can take him home!" Duanmu Feixue said categorically.

After saying that, she seemed to realize something again: "Can't you come with me?

"If you want to send your brother home, I want to, send my friend home!" Xu Yunhe said in a deep voice.

Duanmu Feixue understood, nodded, and didn't say anything more.

"But you're a girl after all, otherwise I'll ......" Xu Yunhe hadn't finished his sentence when a strong airflow fluctuation suddenly came from behind him.

Xu Yunhe turned around abruptly and saw a big fiery red bird.

The whole body is full of fiery red feathers, the red light is shining, there is still a distance away, and a blazing breath has already hit the face.

The huge wings, even if they are folded at the sides of the body, still show its might. Coupled with the high neck that is dozens of meters high, and the colorful crown is all showing the momentum of its divine beast.

This is the phoenix, the phoenix that Xu Yunhe saw for the first time that day.

This is the real phoenix, not the stubborn little quail who fights with Xu Yunhe.

Looking at the mighty phoenix in front of him, Xu Yunhe smiled: "I forgot about you! With you, I am relieved!"

The phoenix lowered his head and winked at Xu Yunhe, very proud.

Xu Yunhe picked up Duanmu Feiyu on his back, put it on the back of the phoenix and fixed it, and watched Duanmu Feixue sit on the back of the phoenix, and instructed him carefully: "Be careful on the road!"

"Well, you too!" Duanmu Feixue nodded, her expression a little gloomy.

"Don't be too sad, your brother will only want his sister to be happy forever, instead of crying every day!" Xu Yunhe comforted her.

"I understand, don't be too sad, you lost a friend, you still have my sister!" Duanmu Feixue comforted Xu Yunhe in turn.

Xu Yunhe was a little ridiculous, nodded, and said to her: "You set off! Go back early, don't delay on the road any longer!"

"Hmm!" Duanmu Feixue nodded yes, and tapped the smooth wings of the phoenix, and the wide wings of the phoenix fluttered, and it flew up into the sky.

Xu Yunhe stood below and waved at her, his wings flapping and blowing his hair up.

"Brother, you remember! After sending off your friends, you must come to the capital to see me!" Duanmu Feixue shouted in the air.

"I will definitely go!" Xu Yunhe waved below and responded loudly.

The phoenix carried Duanmu Feixue and left in the air at a gallop, and after a moment's work, Xu Yunhe could only see a small black dot.

"Goodbye......"

Xu Yunhe stood quietly in place, staring at the direction where Duanmu Feixue was going for a long time.

After standing for a long time, Xu Yunhe turned around, carried Xu Chengfang on the ground, walked forward with heavy steps, and disappeared into the endless wilderness step by step.

Falling Rock Valley, Xu's family.

Today's Xu family has a more unusual atmosphere than in the past.

Probably from more than ten days ago, the Xu family has seen many people come one after another, in a hurry, and there are all kinds of people, but they have not entered the city, but have directly entered the Xu family.

On the periphery of Xu's house, there are many more vigilantes, and no one is allowed to enter within ten miles of the rockfall valley.

No one knew what had happened to the Xu family, but everyone vaguely felt that something must have happened to the Xu family, and it was not an ordinary trivial matter.

All kinds of speculations are quietly circulating in the market, but on the bright side, no one dares to enter the scope of the Xu family to watch one or two.

But curiosity can kill cats, and on the periphery of the Xu family, many idlers with curiosity enough to kill themselves are secretly peeping outside, watching more and more outsiders gathered in the Xu family.

At this time, from a distant road, a teenager came.

The young man's steps were heavy, leaving deep footprints on the road.

In front of the footprints is the Falling Rock Valley, the entrance of the Xu family.

The idlers around him focused their eyes on him. No one dared to blatantly pay attention, but from time to time, there would be a lot of curious eyes on him.

Especially when he got closer and saw what he was carrying on his back, his curious gaze became more and more dense.

For he was carrying a man and a dead man on his back.

The person on his back had a stiff body, his hands and feet were stiff into a straight plank, and his bare hands and half of his face were all dark and blue, revealing a miserable white color.

And as we got closer, there was a very unpleasant stench coming from the wind that blew in.

Blood has never been indispensable in the world of martial artists, and this smell is no stranger to many people.

This is the stench of corpses, the stench of decay after a corpse has been left for several days.

In the past few days, there have been more people coming and going, and everyone has seen a lot of all kinds of strange people. But like today, no one has ever seen a strange man carrying a dead man on his back.

Watched by a bunch of strange eyes, the young man did not feel uncomfortable at all, and moved forward step by step with heavy steps.

Walking into the warning area set up by the Xu family, the young man stopped.

Because in front, someone stopped him.

"Who is it?" asked the guard set up by the Xu family, looking at him with vigilant eyes.

The boy looked up, revealing a pair of cold eyes.

"Sixth son, are you back?" the one in the back recognized the young man's appearance and said in surprise.

The boy nodded, not speaking.

"Get out of the way, this is the sixth son! The person the head of the family has been looking for is the sixth son!" the man said to the others, and when he turned his head to face the young man, he changed his face to flattery.

A few people got out of the way, and the young man nodded, carrying the corpse behind him, and walked inside step by step.

"Sixth son, this kind of heavy work, let's let the villain come!" Seeing that the young man's footsteps were very heavy, the man observed his words and wanted to take the dead body behind the young man.

The boy turned, shook his head, and turned back again, continuing to move forward step by step.

The man shook his head strangely, glanced at the young man, then rolled his eyes, changed directions, and ran inside.

The boy ignored it, and still walked forward with his head buried in it.

Deeper and deeper, in front, another person rushed out, blocking the young man's way.

"Yunhe!" shouted in surprise, and the middle-aged man in front rushed over.

The boy looked up, and the person in front of him had already come to him.

Hugging the young man, the middle-aged man said excitedly: "Yunhe! I knew! I knew that you wouldn't die so easily! You really came back! You came back alive!"

The middle-aged man's voice was very excited, surprised and delighted, but the young man's response was very indifferent.

"Master, I'm back. The young man opened his mouth and said indifferently.

This young man is Xu Yunhe. The person on his back is Xu Chengfang's corpse.

And the middle-aged man in front of him, who held him tightly in his arms, was Xu Guofan, the head of the Xu clan in Yuancheng.

After hugging him, Xu Guofan let go of Xu Yunhe, and only then did he notice the person behind Xu Yunhe, and said in surprise: "Yunhe, who is the person behind you?"

"It's Cheng Fang, he's dead. Xu Yunhe said indifferently, as if he was talking about something that others had nothing to do with himself.

"Chengfang, he's dead, how can this be?" Xu Guofan's face was full of grief, and his voice was choked, "Then Chengye Gongzi ...... They ......"

"They're all dead, they're all dying together. Xu Yunhe continued indifferently.

Xu Guofan's expression was a little fake, he thought he was well disguised, but Xu Yunhe saw it all. However, he didn't want to break it.
