"Dad, are you awake?" Xing'er, who was changing Wang Orion's clothes, saw that Wang Orion opened his eyes, and shouted happily, Lao Qi walked quickly to the bed, Liu San reached out and pressed Lin Jiu's shoulder, signaling him to continue to sit and rest, and walked over himself.

Wang Orion looked at the few people standing in front of the bed, slowed down, and asked softly, "Am I still alive?"

"Daddy" Tao'er threw herself into Wang Orion's arms at once, cried out and cried, and could no longer speak. "Dad, you're scared me to death, you were almost caught by a ghost just now," Xing'er also said while wiping away tears.

Wang Orion gently patted Tao'er's back and said with a smile, "Where did the ghost come from, why didn't I see it, stupid kid, just kidding, I'm not good? By the way, why don't I feel a little bit when I'm seriously injured? And how long have I been asleep?"

"You still remember that you were seriously injured, when you first came back, I helped you take your pulse, you were already a dying person, and Xiaobai used a spell to cure your serious injury. ”

"Xiaobai actually knows how to spell, what kind of spell?" asked Wang Orion in surprise

"You don't care about what kind of spells, let's talk about this later, you first tell how you got hurt like this. ”

"Yes, let's get down to business first," Liu San also urged

Wang Orion got up slowly, turned over and knelt on the bed, and said to Lao Qi, "Lao Qi, I have caused a big disaster, I am sorry for the people in the village, I should die, I should die"

Lao Qi hurriedly helped up the kneeling Wang Orion, and said anxiously: "Lao Wang, don't be like this, you hurry up and tell me what's wrong." ”

"Sixteen years ago, Xiu'e rescued the third uncle that night, I stayed up all night, it was not my father who took me to the village, but my father's cronies and lieutenants, my father was the general of the Han State, because he did not send troops in time to rescue the besieged prince when he was at war with Lu, resulting in the death of the prince, the emperor was angry and condemned to my Wang family, but there are grievances in this, my father was framed by someone designed, and it was too late to receive the spy report, and finally my Wang family was beheaded all over the house. ”

The people in the room were shocked by these words, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

Wang Orion sighed and continued, " Sixty-three people left only I was rescued by the deputy general who led the troops, a group of cronies and soldiers were killed and wounded, the deputy general uncle took me all the way to escape here, every day I thought about how to go back to revenge, I worked hard to practice martial arts in order to have a day to kill back, every day in hatred, until I met Xiu'e, she is such a beautiful and kind woman, only she knows the secret of my body, and then she married me without hesitation, and gave birth to two such good daughters, slowly after a long time, I also forgot about revenge, I just want to accompany Xiu'e to be white-headed here, plus the road into the mountain was collapsed, has not found a way out, I slowly became more desperate, until the arrival of the third uncle and Xiao Jiu. ”

"No wonder you always ask me about the path in the Silver Dragon Mountain, intentionally or unintentionally," Liu Laohan said with a sudden realization.

Wang Orion nodded and continued, I knew there must be a way out, that night I tossed and turned my mind full of the scene of the tragic death of my father and mother and the family, I thought I forgot the hatred, it turned out that I didn't, I wanted to kill the emperor Lao'er, but I didn't go at the time, it was Xiu'e who was just pregnant with Peach, I really couldn't bear to leave them behind, and then Xiu'e died of dystocia, I felt that life was boring, but Tao'er was still young, I endured to raise Tao'er, until I felt that the time was ripe, after asking the third uncle the way out, I set off, I rushed all the way to the Imperial City of Han, with the memory of often entering the palace when I was a child, I quietly sneaked in, I caught a serving eunuch and wanted to ask which harem the emperor was resting in that night, but I didn't expect the eunuch to say that there was only the prince and no emperor in the palace today, and the royal family of the Han Kingdom was gone sixteen years ago, and it disappeared overnight, just like the world evaporated, all the people related to the royal family Zhao surname were gone, not even a corpse was left, even the prince's family was the same, and even rumored that the illegitimate children of the Zhao family of the folk also disappeared overnight, now the imperial city is the domain of a prince of Zhou"

Wang Orion paused and slowly walked to the head of the bed and continued, I was going to take revenge, but I didn't expect the revenge to be avenged by others, and the revenge was so thorough, one was not left, I was shocked by this when the little eunuch suddenly broke free from my control, while running away too much shouting for help, soon I was found by the soldiers, I fought all the way out of the imperial city, but the soldiers behind have been chasing me, two times I was caught up with me are desperate to kill, the leader is a young master of internal strength, if he tries his best to kill me, but he may want to live eloquence without using all his strength, I wanted to lead them elsewhere, but unconsciously ran towards Bailong Mountain, I wanted to lead them into the cave to the fork hole to trap them, but for some reason they seem to be very good at tracking, I will always be caught up by them when I walk in the cave for a few days, I can get away with the terrain every time, but the injuries on my body are getting worse and worse, I think I'm going to die, so I want to come back to see Apricot and Peach, but it turned out to cause a big disaster to the village, hurt the villagers, I really deserve to die"

Lao Qiyi sighed when he heard it, "Forget it, it's so far, what's the use of saying this, you didn't mean it, third uncle, you and Jiu'er hurry up and pack up your things, I'll go and gather the big guys, let's hurry up and hide in the mountains first"

Liu San thought for a while and said, "If the leader of the team has such a high tracking skill according to what Zhenshan said, it is not possible to hide in the mountains, and besides, it has been delayed for so long since Zhenshan came back, and the pursuers are afraid that they are about to reach the village, and it will definitely be too late to run now." ”

"Oh, third uncle, let's hide in the mountains first, maybe they will go back when they enter the village and see that there is no one, and they can't find anything and turn back, no matter, I'll gather the big guys first, and then talk about it in the mountains, unless you have any good way." ”

"How can I think of any good way at this time, forget it, let's go to the mountain first, Jiu'er, hurry up and pack up your things" Liu San turned around and urged Lin Jiu after speaking

"Xing'er, although your father-in-law went home to pack his things, I will go to our father's to see if there is anyone who needs help" As soon as Qian Li finished speaking, he ran out of the door, and Lao Qi hurriedly followed out.

"Peach, you stay here, I'll go home and pack some luggage, and stay here with my father"

"I know, sister, you hurry back"

"Tao'er, you go and help Xiao Jiu pack up some dry food, dad will somehow be a little sleepy and want to lie down"

"Dad, why are you still sleeping?"

"It's okay, dad will lie down"

"Peach, there are still some pancakes in the kitchen, you go and put them up, and you will eat them in the mountains in a while," Liu San confessed

"Okay, third master, I'll go."

Liu San looked at Wang Orion Wang Zhenshan, who was already lying down, he knew that the last breath that Xiaobai supported him was almost time, he didn't want Tao'er to watch his father leave, so he took her away first, he thought that Wang Orion would live longer, but he didn't expect to leave in such a short time, and after a while, a faint white light emerged from the tip of Wang Orion's nose, scattered and turned into a little white light, and disappeared into the air after a flash, Wang Orion was completely out of breath.

Lin Jiu came out of the back room, hugged Xiao Bai, carried a package behind him, looked at Liu San and said, "Why is Uncle Wang sleeping now, isn't he going into the mountain?"

"Your Uncle Wang is dead"

"What? impossible, wasn't it okay just now?" Lin Jiu said loudly, threw Xiao Bai on the ground and ran to the bed, "Uncle Wang, wake up, you said that you would take me into the mountains to hunt, and you would find me a daughter-in-law." ”

Tao'er may have heard movement in the kitchen, and ran over quickly, and when she saw Lin Jiu lying in front of the bed, she immediately understood what was going on, and ran to the bed and knelt on the ground and cried loudly, "Brother Jiu, my father was fine just now, why did he say that he would die after sleeping, what should I do in the future?"

Liu San walked to the side of the bed and gently patted the two of them on the back and said, "Tao'er, you also saw Xiaobai use a spell to save your father, but Xiaobai may still be young and failed to completely cure your father, life and death are fate, so don't be too sad." ”

"Third uncle, Xiao Jiu, let's go, they have entered the village from the east, and they will kill people when they see them" There was a shout from Xing'er in the yard, Liu San didn't care about the two children who were still crying at the head of the bed, so he pulled them up and ran out, and saw that Xing'er was already lying at the gate, with a feather arrow on her back, and a long knife edge, Tao'er saw it and hurriedly ran over, "Sister, why are you hurt, sister, do you hurt?" Tao'er was already crying into tears.

Liu San hurriedly stepped forward to pick up Xing'er and said, "What's the matter?"

Xing'er slowly woke up again, and said anxiously, "Let's go, they have already killed the seventh brother, go quickly, Tao'er will listen to the words of the third grandfather in the future, my sister can't see you get married, you have to live well" After speaking, she lost her breath.

Tao'er was already crying and speechless, and Liu San couldn't care about what to say to Lin Jiu when he saw that the matter was urgent, so he ran towards the west entrance of the village with one hand.

I didn't expect to arrive at the head of the bridge at the entrance of the village, there were three soldiers standing at the head of the bridge, there was a young man in a robe standing in the middle of the bridge, there were already more than a dozen young people who ran here first, lying motionless on the ground and already dead, the four people looked at the old and the young and did not hurry over, with a playful expression on their faces, and the three people were worried about what to do, when they heard movement behind them.

Turning his head, he saw that there were more than a dozen people in the same outfit as the bridge, each with blood, and slowly walked over to surround the three of them, the young man in the bridge didn't speak, just waved his hand, and the two people in the crowd raised their knives and slashed at Lin Jiu, and suddenly a white shadow flashed in front of the two soldiers, Xiaobai stood beside Lin Jiu, the two soldiers knelt on the ground with their knees, red blood flowed out of their necks, Xiaobai scratched the necks of the two with his claws, a group of people were stunned for a moment, and pulled out the knife with a bang, the young man frowned and snorted coldly, jumped three feet away lightly, and grabbed Xiaobai on tiptoe, Xiaobai didn't hesitate to swoop at the young man, and the others gathered in a circle outside and were frightened by Xiaobai's sudden.

This young man's internal strength is strong, and Xiaobai's clothes bulge when he moves, and the top of his head gradually bubbles with white water, Xiaobai is small and flexible, and has been advancing and retreating rapidly, but the sharp claws will be bounced off or as weak as hitting cotton, but the young man can hit Xiaobai from time to time when Xiaobai is close to Xiaobai, and after more than ten rounds, the young man smiled and looked at Xiaobai that there was nothing at all, and Xiaobai's limbs standing on the ground after a few palms were faintly trembling, and it had just finished saving Wang Orion with beads when his vitality was seriously injured。

Although the little white dragon made up a white light to its beads, but after all, it would not take effect so quickly, a group of people around showed expectant eyes, Xiaobai took two steps back, looked up at Lin Jiu, at this time Lin Jiu's eyes just looked, his eyes were full of anxiety and distress, Lin Jiu looked at Xiaobai and said, "Xiaobai, run away, don't worry about us, you can't beat him, you be careful alone in the future, don't be caught by hunters again." ”

Xiaobai lowered his head and did not move.

"You go, leave us alone, I'll tell you to go" Lin Jiu shouted loudly at Xiao Bai, and kicked his foot into the air, trying to get rid of it.

Xiao Bai looked up at the young man in front of him, only hesitated for a short time, then firmed his eyes, followed it slowly opened his mouth, endured the pain and slowly spit out the white light bead that was almost transparent, the surrounding group of people were stunned, where had they seen such a scene, and the young man standing not far from the opposite side didn't seem to be very surprised by all this, just looked at Xiao Bai blankly and didn't know what it was going to do, after the bead spit out of his mouth, it stopped in front of Xiao Bai's mouth, Xiao Bai was already at the end of the strong crossbow at this time, and his trembling body was almost unstable。

Xiao Bai glanced up at the young man, the young man seemed to remember something, and suddenly shouted "Retreat" with a pale face, and he turned around and jumped forward to run out, at this time Xiao Bai bit the bead with a mouth, and the bead was the center, and suddenly lit up a spherical light cluster, which was more than ten zhang in size, in this light group, except for the three people around Xiao Bai, everyone else disappeared in an instant, none of them were left, all disappeared, only the weapon fell to the ground, and the bead in Xiao Bai's mouth had been bitten and disappeared.

Xiaobai became thin and small, and his white hair was faintly yellow, this scene made the three of them unable to close their mouths in surprise, but they had also seen Xiaobai's strength before, although they were surprised and quickly relieved, at this time Xiaobai was already lying on the ground motionless, Lin Jiu hurriedly bent down and picked up Xiaobai on the ground and asked Liu San, "Grandpa, what should we do now, where are we going? or go back to the village?" Xiaobai seems to be seriously injured."

"Get out of here first, it's not safe here, let's leave quickly while the thieves on the east side of the village haven't come yet. Liu San pulled Lin Jiu and Tao'er across the bridge and began to walk towards the dense forest, the three of them walked all the way north towards the main peak of Bailong Mountain, originally according to Liu San's plan was to walk along the karst cave to the sheep intestine trail on the cliff, and then turn back to the Han Kingdom, but as long as the three of them changed their direction slightly to go elsewhere, it would make Xiao Bai in Lin Jiu's arms whine, but when they were towards Bailong Mountain, they didn't move, Liu San and Lin Jiu felt that this matter was strange, but after all, Xiao Bai saved their lives, and no matter how dangerous the place was, maybe Xiao Bai just wanted to go home。

"Grandpa, Xiaobai hasn't moved much today, it won't die, right?" Lin Jiu suddenly asked

The three of them have been walking for two days since they came out of the village, and although Xiaobai was very weak on the first day, he still could move, but on the second day, he didn't move at all.

Liu San and Lin Jiu both thought that Xiao Bai had been insisting on letting them go to Bailong Mountain, and they must have wanted them to send it home, so the two of them unconsciously accelerated the pace under their feet.

In the evening, the three of them finally walked to the foot of Bailong Mountain, the entrance of the perennial flowing water cave has been open like a giant beast's mouth, the sun is about to set, and it seems even more dark in the cave, from time to time from the inside of a gust of cold wind, and like the entrance of the Netherworld, Lin Jiu slowly put Xiaobai on the ground, and said softly, "Xiaobai, wake up, see if you are home?"

Xiao Bai slowly opened his eyes and looked at everything in front of him, they were now standing in front of the entrance of the cave, Xiao Bai didn't even have the strength to stand up, it slowly turned its head to look at Lin Jiu behind him, with a trace of doubt in his eyes, more of gratitude, it turned around and bit Lin Jiu's trouser leg and pulled it in the direction of the hole.

"Are you going to let me send you in? But it's a little scary to look at in the black hole."

Xiao Bai nodded lightly, Lin Jiu turned his head to look at Liu San, "Grandpa, Xiao Bai wants us to send it in, are we going to enter this big cave?"

Liu San looked up at the tall cave, his face was full of sadness, and he lowered his head and said, "Xiao Jiu, let's send Xiaobai here, although Xiaobai saved our lives, but we don't know what dangers are in this cave, besides, no one has entered the village for so many years, and Xiaobai has no ability to protect us, if we encounter danger, we are afraid that we will all die here."

"But Xiaobai can't walk on the road now, how can it walk in by itself, or let's take it with us."

"I also want to take it away, but you can also see it, every time we change directions, it wakes up and finds that it is not going right, it will struggle with all its strength, pull your clothes in the direction of this White Dragon Mountain, and now we send it to the entrance of the cave to live up to its kindness, and then we have to find a new place to live."

Lin Jiu turned around and stroked Xiaobai again and said, "Xiaobai, do you have a family? Will they come to pick you up? I and my grandfather are really leaving, the village is gone, we still have to live, this cave grandpa said that it is dangerous, we won't go in with you, you take care of yourself, when I am an adult, if you are still alive, I will come to see you."

This time Xiaobai looked at Lin Jiu and didn't say anything, just looked at this young man, his little fox didn't know what to think in his head, Lin Jiu hugged Xiaobai again, got up and walked towards Liu San, suddenly Xiaobai stood up, ran two steps to catch up with Lin Jiu, bit Lin Jiu's trouser leg, pulled it back hard, whimpering in his mouth, the two slender eyes were filled with tears, it was already weak and had no strength at all, and now it didn't know where the strength came from, so it kept stalemate with Lin Jiu, this short period of strength really didn't last long, Xiaobai fainted, lying on the ground and didn't move, Lin Jiu quickly bent down and hugged Xiaobai into his arms, looked at Liu San's "grandfather" and shouted stubbornly.

Liu San sighed and said, "Okay, just send it in, it is so disregarding the retention of the body, there may be a reason for us to follow in, it's just that this white-haired beast can't speak, Tao'er, you are looking at Xiaobai here, I'll go and cut a few big branches with Xiao Jiu to make torches, and we'll go into the cave to have a look, are you afraid?"

Wang Tao'er stepped forward and took Xiao Bai in Lin Jiu's arms and said with a smile, "As long as Brother Nine and the third grandfather are by your side, Tao'er is not afraid of anything." ”

Not far into the cave fell into a pitch black, the light outside seemed to be swallowed by this dark beast and could not shine in a bit, Liu San looked back at the entrance of the cave, although it was the evening sun is not very poisonous, but it should not only shine in not far away directly into the dark, this cave is really weird, but still give yourself the courage to lead the two little ghosts to continue to walk in, the bottom of the cave is very smooth, there has been live water flowing out on one side of the cave wall, and on the other side of the cave wall, you will see a pair of animal bones at intervals, at the beginning it is still the size of a wolf dog, and the more you go inside, the bigger you will find, The three of them have walked about three or five miles, but they still haven't seen their heads, and the scene around them has always been exactly the same, and they almost all have the illusion that they have been walking in place, if it weren't for the occasional bones that appear around them from time to time, a few people would have collapsed early after walking in the dark for so long.

The three of them sat down against the cave wall to rest for a while, ate some dry food, and walked for most of the day without movement, and several people became bolder, Lin Jiu drank the water taken from the stream under the cave wall on the other side and said, "Xiaobai, do you live so close to the inside?"

Xiao Bai tilted his head to look at him and blinked, "I'm afraid this is not its home, the fox shouldn't live in such a deep cave, and Xiao Bai didn't show the joy of going home, but anyway, we have already come in, it depends on where Xiao Bai will take us, if this white-haired beast wants to harm us, it will be harmed a long time ago, don't wait until this time" Liu San beat his legs and said

"Third grandpa, how do I feel that we have been going downhill, my two thighs hurt," Tao'er also pinched her legs and said

"I've noticed this since the last big turn, it's just that it's not obvious that we've been going down, and this will start to feel it, but it's not just how far we have to go, Jiu'er, change the torch and let's go on. ”

"Okay Grandpa"

Liu San secretly kept remembering the time with his steps, and walked for another hour, according to the pace of their old and young, they must have walked more than five miles, and the surroundings slowly became damp, and they actually felt cold, Liu San was secretly frightened, as long as he stood beside Lin Jiu in this range of White Dragon Mountain, he couldn't feel the cold, but now he actually felt it, if it wasn't for Lin Jiu's body, then Lin Jiu couldn't imagine how cold it could be outside the range that Lin Jiu could protect.

Liu San has been following Lin Jiu closely, and he has been pulling Tao'er in his hand, he is afraid that Lin Jiu will suddenly run a few steps, and he and Tao'er will not be able to keep up, and it is estimated that he will freeze to death in an instant, Liu San thought about it and turned his head to look at the stream that has been flowing out under the cave wall, it has not frozen in such a cold situation, and the most strange thing is that they have been going down in a big circle, and the water is flowing out, all of which makes Liu San completely stunned.
