Chapter Twenty-Three: Asking the Way Forward
The three of them worked together to bury Ah Si hastily.
To avoid trouble, the tombstone is a wooden board without any words.
The spiritual cultivator spread out his palm, and a crystal spirit butterfly slowly flew up and landed on the corner of the tombstone.
Lingxiu stared blankly at the spirit butterfly, and the scene of the past also came to mind.
"Little girl, why are you alone on the mountain at such a late hour? What about your family? ”
"Woooooooooo......oo They said that there was a kind of flower on the mountain, and my father liked it the most, and I wanted to come to the mountain to find some flowers for my father, but I couldn't find it, and I couldn't go home......"
"Don't be afraid. Now that the mountains are full of monsters, you should go home with your brother first, and your brother will send you back tomorrow morning, okay? ”
"I'm not going with you! My mother-in-law said that you can't go with strangers! ”
"Mother-in-law? Who is it? ”
"That's our mother-in-law, and her cooking is delicious!"
"I see. Then let me ask you, do you like that cooking mother-in-law? ”
"I like it!"
"Then you have to go with your brother, otherwise you will be eaten by the monsters on this mountain, and you will never see her again!"
"Hmm...... That...... All right. ”
……
"Little girl, why did you come to the mountain again?"
"Uh...... Doesn't my little brother welcome me? ”
"Oops! Don't cry! I can't help you, you see! What is it? ”
"Wow! What a beautiful little butterfly. ”
"Do you want it?"
"Yes!"
"Then you must not be angry with your brother, and you are not allowed to cry again!"
"Hmm!"
……
"Little brother...... Are you leaving......"
"Hmm."
"Are you coming back?"
"I ...... Probably won't be coming back. ”
"Woooooooooooo Little brother, don't go! I don't want you to go! ”
"Silly boy, I have important things to do."
"Please, don't go!"
"So be it! I swear, I'll be back as soon as I can, and I'll teach you how to conjure more good-looking critters, okay? ”
"Then let's pull the hook! The hook hangs for a hundred years! ”
"It's a puppy to deceive!"
"It's time for me to go, Ashu."
"Then you must come back quickly!"
"Hmmm......"
"By the way, your spiritual power is too weak, remember to take medicine on time, and be sure to take it in a place where you can see your father, he will ensure that your spiritual power will not be disordered."
"yes, I know!"
……
Devotional smiled wryly.
"You won't understand that that time was a rare beautiful time in my life, as warm as the light cast by the forest."
"So I don't hate you for using me, and I can't hate you."
"Little brother...... Ashu is leaving......"
"Thank you for remembering our agreement."
"I didn't understand why you wouldn't tell me where you were going?"
"I now understand that you left with such a heart."
"You know what? In the days you left, I would go back to the mountains every day to see if you had come back, and gradually I had forgotten about it. ”
"It's like a dream."
"But now you're back...... So really...... It's so nice......"
Tears slipped down the devotional cheeks again.
"Devotional Sister ......"
Chu Haotian saw that the spiritual cultivator was so sad, and wanted to say comfort, but he didn't know where to start.
The spiritual cultivator shook his head.
"I'm fine, don't worry about me."
Shui Linghan kept frowning.
"I didn't expect the truth of the destruction of the Beast God Palace back then to be like this."
"If one day I can take back the position of the immortal lord, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and wash away the grievances for the Beast God Palace!"
At this time, Shui Linghan found that Chu Haotian's face was solemn.
"What's wrong? Haotian? ”
Chu Haotian said anxiously.
"Right now we've escaped, but my parents are still in the county capital!"
"I don't know if this incident will involve them......
"No! I'll have to go back and see! ”
Shui Linghan was shocked.
"Oh no, I ignored that!"
Then he said solemnly to Chu Haotian.
"The matter started because of me, Haotian, I will accompany you to the county capital!"
Chu Haotian shook his head.
"Thank you, Brother Ling Han, but that's too risky! As soon as Xie Yi set up an ambush here, we will all be annihilated, and none of us will be able to escape! I am the left protector of the future, and I must not let you have any accidents! ”
"Although you are my left protector, you are also my best brother, if I leave my brother behind for my life, how can I be worthy of the position of immortal master!"
Shui Linghan retorted.
"But ......"
Chu Haotian wanted to say something, but was stopped by Shui Linghan.
"Time is pressing, we need to hurry to the county capital."
Seeing this situation, Chu Haotian no longer shirked.
"Good! So let's wrap it up! ”
"Hmm!"
Seeing that the two were going to the county capital, the spiritual cultivator hurriedly proposed.
"That'...... I'll go with you! ”
Chu Haotian hurriedly refused.
"No, I can't. Sister Lingxiu, we went this time to make a break with Xie Yi. It's a dangerous trip, and I don't want to bother you with my business again! ”
"I know it's dangerous, that's why I'm going! I'm not as good as you, but I can help more or less and won't drag you down! ”
Shui Linghan also helped on the side.
"That's true. Haotian, didn't the spiritual cultivator just break the siege for us in the Imperial Immortal City? If it weren't for her timely help, we might have been captured by Xie Yi. And when you were poisoned, it was with the help of spiritual practice that you were able to get the antidote. ”
"What! Even the antidote was obtained with the help of my spiritual sister? ”
Chu Haotian looked at the smiling spiritual cultivator with a look of disbelief.
"Your antidote, Dragon Flame Zhi, is the blood of the Wind God Beast. I didn't tell you before because of the forbidden arts. ”
Shui Linghan explained.
Chu Haotian thought about it and agreed to the proposal of spiritual cultivation.
"I see."
"If Sister Spiritual is in danger, you must protect yourself first, don't worry about us."
"Good!"
Devotional yes.
"Without further ado! Let's go! ”
After several days of trekking, the three finally arrived in the county capital.
Outside the Chu Mansion, Chu Haotian anxiously patted the door.
"Open the door!"
Bang bang!
"I'm Chu Haotian! Open the door! ”
The door creaked open.
When the old housekeeper saw that it was Chu Haotian, his face showed a look of surprise.
"It's the young master! You're back! How do you look so tired! Who are these two? ”
"They're my buddies."
Shui Linghan and Ling Xiu nodded at the housekeeper.
Seeing this, the housekeeper also bowed his head in return.
"It's the young master's honored guest! Come in! Come in! ”
The three of them followed the housekeeper into the Chu Mansion.
"Fauber, where is my father? Take me to them, I have something to tell them now!" ”
"Back to the young master. It's really unfortunate that the lord and the lady have just gone out, and it is estimated that it will be dark before they can come back. ”
"Going out at this point? Aren't you going to enjoy the overnight flowers again? ”
"Yes, young master, Mrs. loves to stay at night with flowers, and these days are just the flowering period of night flowers, so in recent days, I often go with my lord to enjoy the flowers."
Chu Haotian snorted dissatisfied.
"We're anxious here, but they're leisurely and happy!"
"I don't know why the young master got angry? Maybe Fu Bo can share some of the burden for the young master? ”
"It's fine. So recently, there are people from Yuxian City who have come to find their parents? ”
Fauber shook his head.
"I haven't heard of it."
Chu Haotian was thoughtful.
"That's ......"
"Young master, don't worry, please rest first, when the old lady comes back, Fu Bo will definitely inform the young master as soon as possible!"
"There's no time...... Where exactly did they go? I'll go find them now! ”
"Back to the young master, they went to Fengxi Mountain."
"Got it."
Chu Haotian looked at Shui Linghan and Lingxiu.
"Let's hurry to Fengxi Mountain!"
"Hmm."
The two agreed.
Seeing this, Fauber hurriedly dissuaded.
Young master, you and the guests have been in the dust all the way, if you don't take a break and look for it again, Fu Bo will order you to go down and entertain the two distinguished guests. ”
"No, thank you, we still have important things to do, and we can't delay."
Shui Linghan said.
Seeing that the three of them had made up their minds, Fu Bo no longer dissuaded them.
"Since this is the case, then Fu Bo will not delay the young master's important business. Young master, distinguished guest, please be careful all the way. ”
