Chapter 620: Blackstone County
The person who came was a middle-aged man, coarse linen, covered in dust, seemingly ordinary, but his eyes were as deep as a galaxy, and he stared at the two black shadows not far away with a sharp gaze.
Creak......
The two black shadows did not move, but the monster that was shocked away was fierce, turning into a black mist in mid-air, and a strange cry came out, rushing towards the middle-aged man.
"Black!"
The middle-aged man snorted coldly, didn't even look at it, waved his big hand and struck, and a red flame shrouded away, and suddenly, a terrible scream sounded, and the black mist was instantly burned by the flames and ashes, sprinkled all over the ground.
"Damn it!"
The two black shadows in the distance let out angry curses, and in an instant, the strange small flag hanging above their heads waved in the wind, and the flag surface gushed out thick black gas, enveloping countless ghosts and ghosts howling violently, opening their teeth and dancing claws.
"It's just a ghost trick, and you dare to show it off in front of me!"
The middle-aged man snorted lightly, stretched out his right hand and pointed it far away, and suddenly, an invisible force surged out, and the ghost ghost seemed to have encountered a nemesis, frightened and inexplicable, and turned his head and screamed loudly, frantically drilled back into the flag, and never dared to show his head again.
As for the two black shadows, they were also shrouded by this invisible force, and the black qi on the surface dissipated, revealing two pale-faced men, both of whom looked at the middle-aged man opposite in horror, wanting to escape, but found that their bodies had been firmly imprisoned and could not move.
"Seniors spare their lives! seniors spare their lives......"
These two knew that they had kicked the iron plate this time, and they couldn't say anything about their suffering, so they could only keep begging for mercy.
The middle-aged man made a move with his right hand. The strange little flag flew and landed in his palm, and after a glance at it, his face immediately became gloomy, and said, "Use evil methods to detain living souls, you are so bold!"
The two of them were shocked when they heard this, only to feel that an endless murderous aura was surging, and they were cold and fierce, as if they would be broken into thousands of pieces in a moment.
"We are just doing what we are told, and we can't help ourselves. Please spare your life!"
Face life and death. One of them took care of a lot and begged for mercy loudly, absolving himself of responsibility. Seeing this, there was only one person left, not to be outdone. is also desperately begging for mercy. Tell the real culprit behind the scenes. "We are all disciples of the Chenzhou Yan family, and it is not our intention to collect living souls in the name of the elders. Please forgive your sins!"
"Chenzhou Yanjia!"
The middle-aged man frowned and said, "I heard that the Yan family cultivates the corpse path method, how can they change to the Netherworld Ghost Path?"
"This ......"
The two Yan disciples glanced at each other, and they all looked at each other, as if they didn't know the details. One of them thought for a moment and said, "The large number of living souls we were ordered to collect, I heard that they were newly hired by the family to be needed by the worship lord, and we don't know the specific situation!"
"Exorcising corpses and refining corpses is inhumane, and now the souls of the dead are still detained, and your Yan family is not afraid of the wrath of heaven and people, and will be punished!"
The middle-aged man said this coldly, and with a wave of his big hand, the two Yan disciples in front of him disappeared strangely without a trace. A little strange color flashed on his face, and he thought for a while, and said to himself: "This matter is a little strange, I must find out, if it is really evil, I must not spare ......"
This middle-aged man is Huo Xuan. He went all the way north and entered the territory of Fengdu, a hundred miles away, and he noticed the bloody and tragic scene here, and immediately escaped to find out.
Today's Fengdu State is the largest force in Chenzhou, and its predecessor is the oldest and most mysterious Xuanmen family in Chenzhou, and it belongs to the top big family power in the entire Kyushu.
The Yan family cultivates the secret solution of the corpse path, and is good at all kinds of corpse refining and exorcism techniques, which is supernatural and unpredictable. The secret solution of the corpse path originally belonged to the evil sect, but because the Yan family acted in a low-key manner, the family rules were very strict, and it had a close relationship with the Qin family back then, so when the Qin family ruled Kyushu, it did not attract suppression, but got along very well with the Qin family.
At the Xuanwu Conference that year, the Yan family had strong support, and also sent disciples from the clan to participate. One of the disciples named Yan Yin had a lot of intersections with Huo Xuan, and later this person worshiped under the Twelve Veins of Tiandu Black-faced Jun, and his cultivation was extremely good.
Recalling the past, I always sigh with embarrassment. Huo Xuan froze down, turned his head to look at the seriously injured and dying young soldier, and said to himself: "Fortunately, I came in time, otherwise, you would have become the blood food of that mutant black fish, not to mention that your life is not alive, and even your soul cannot be saved......
As he spoke, he examined the person's injuries, and then with a finger of his right hand, a wisp of turquoise air flowed straight out and drilled into the person's body.
............
The Yan family established the Fengdu Kingdom, but let it go, handed it over to the three subordinate forces, and let them compete fiercely, and the winning side was elected as the monarch and ruled the Fengdu Kingdom. Because of this, in most of the Chenzhou region occupied by Fengdu State, there are endless battles, wars, and the people are struggling to make a living.
Blackstone County.
This is the station of the three major forces affiliated to the Yan family.
Outside the huge county, a large settlement was formed around the city due to the influx of refugees from the north, with a population of as many as one million. They were under the jurisdiction of Blackstone County, but they were not allowed to enter the city, and could only inhabit settlements outside the city, where they did not have enough food, and their lives were very difficult.
When Huo Xuan arrived, he saw the hundreds of miles of settlements, the dirty and dilapidated scene, and the people with yellow faces and thin muscles, and his heart was full of feelings.
"Immortal Master, my house is in front!"
A young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes stood behind Huo Xuan, pointing to a certain place in the settlement in front of him, his face full of joy, and said loudly.
This person's name is Zong Houdao, as his name suggests, honest and kind, it is the young soldier that Huo Xuan rescued on the battlefield.
escaped death, and his injuries healed in a few breaths, all of which came from the immortal master in front of him. After regaining consciousness, Zong Houdao had already worshiped Huo Xuan as a god, accompanied him all the way, waited carefully, and came to the county seat of Heishi County.
"Let's go and have a look at your house. ”
Huo Xuan said with a smile. From the bottom of his heart, he has a good impression of this young man with a simple nature, and when he meets, he doesn't mind helping the other party if he is in trouble.
Zong Houdao was very happy to hear this, and immediately led the way in front and walked into the settlement with Huo Xuan.
"Brother Kind!"
"Kind, I'm so happy to see you come back alive!"
Zong Houdao is very popular, and when he walked into the settlement, someone greeted him with a smile from time to time. The settlement here is slightly better than the settlement of the disaster victims in Qiyun Kingdom, although it is difficult to have a full stomach without three meals, but it can barely survive. Although the people living here are yellow and thin, their mentality is still optimistic, and they have not gone to extremes.
Soon, Huo Xuan followed Zong Houdao to a broken wooden house and stopped.
"Mother, little sister, I'm back!"
Zong Houdao shouted loudly while knocking on the door, his expression extremely happy.
The wooden door 'squeaked' opened, and a girl with a yellow face but not losing her beauty appeared, she saw Zong Houdao, and immediately cheered, hugged Zong Houdao and said loudly: "Brother, you can come back, my mother and I are dying these days!"
This girl is Zong Houdao's little sister, Zong Yuxiang.
Then, an old woman with a cane also walked out tremblingly, with tears in her old eyes, hugging Zong Houdao and saying 'son', the scene was touching and burst into tears.
In these troubled times, it is a great blessing for the family to be reunited. Huo Xuan stood beside him, silently watching the family gather together, and the thoughts in his heart were mixed and indescribable.
"Mother, little sister, let me introduce you, this is a fairy ...... Mr. Xuan, if he hadn't saved the child, I would have died on the battlefield!" Zong Houdao just wanted to call out the title of 'Immortal Master', but was stopped by Huo Xuan's voice, this kid was also quick to react, and immediately called him 'Mr. Xuan'.
"Thank you, sir, thank you for saving my son......"
After hearing this, the old woman's face was full of gratitude, and she was about to kneel down and thank Huo Xuan for his son's life-saving kindness. The girl Yuxiang on the side was also very well-behaved, and her mother knelt on the ground with her.
"Auntie can't help it, please get up!"
Huo Xuan hurriedly helped them up. He had nothing but pity and guilt in his heart for these suffering people.
"Sir, please come in...... Yuxiang, get ready to eat, Mr. Entertain. ”
At the invitation of the old woman, Huo Xuan walked into this small and damp wooden house, and the girl Yuxiang hurriedly went to Zhang Luo, took out the delicacies that the family was reluctant to eat on weekdays, and entertained her eldest brother's life-saving benefactor.
Sitting down on the simple wooden bench, Huo Xuan looked around, the four walls of the house were as clean as washing, there were only three beds covered with straw, and then a miscellaneous wooden table. When Yuxiang served the dishes, a few pancakes, and a small pot of wild vegetable and multigrain porridge, it was a delicacy that they were reluctant to eat on weekdays.
"First, sir, that's all for the house, you'll have something to eat!"
Zong Houdao Nuo Nuo said, looking apologetic.
"You're welcome, I still have some food here, let's use it together!"
Huo Xuan smiled slightly, reached out and took out a package of oiled paper from his arms, and after opening it, it was filled with fragrant braised pork.
"By the way, there's a chicken, and wine ......"
Then, as if by juggling, he pulled out several delicacies from his bosom one after another, plus a jug of wine. The old woman and the girl of the Zong family, Yuxiang, were stunned when they saw it, and as for Zong Houdao, his face was full of heat, and he believed in his heart that these delicacies were all conjured by the immortal master's spell.
"Come, you're welcome, everyone, let's eat. ”
Huo Xuan greeted with a smile.
Zong Houdao thought about it for a while, and he was not polite, he tore a piece of chicken leg and put it in his mother's bowl, "Mother, Mr. is not an outsider, he asked us to eat, let's let go of our belly and eat today!"
With that, he tore off another chicken leg and handed it to his little sister.
This meal, for the Zong family, has not enjoyed such a meal for many years, and it is extremely happy.
Huo Xuan saw it in his eyes and sighed in his heart, he had already made a decision to do something for these suffering people.
After eating, he got up and took his leave. Seeing that he was leaving, Zong Houdao gritted his teeth, stepped forward and knelt down, and said loudly: "Immortal Master, the kid wants to worship you as a teacher, please accept me!"
The opportunity to change your destiny is fleeting. Zong is kind-hearted, but he is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very shrewd. At this moment, he mustered up the courage and asked Huo Xuan for apprenticeship. (To be continued......)
