Chapter 173: Bad News
"If you don't avenge this, you won't be a man. Su Feihong pointed to the void and swore an oath.
In one night, three parents and children were killed, and this blood debt was paid for by blood.
More than a dozen bamboo boats along the Yuanchun River, a tributary of the Anjiang River, go upstream, most of the bamboo boats are two people, the man holds the bamboo boat, the woman holds a long rod rough fishing net, stretches out to the left and right river water from time to time, scoops up a tail of fat fish, these people are the name of the downstream Changze Village.
In the early morning, the village name of Nagasawa Village was surprised to find that the river was flowing downstream, floating with fish corpses of various sizes, all of which had died for some reason, but it was not for a long time, and it did not smell and stink.
The names of the villages have supported bamboo boats to catch up the big fish that are still fresh. The name of the village looked for the fish carcass, and went upstream, and the bamboo boat was already full of fat big fish, which could be sold to the town for a lot of money.
"Daddy, look. A woman shouted in a panic.
Everyone looked up and saw a group of black eagles hovering in the air on the collapsed wooden houses on the river bank in the distance.
"It's Xiaoyu Village, how did it become like this?" said an elder in surprise.
Everyone hurriedly rowed a bamboo boat to Xiaoyu Village to see what it was, Xiaoyu Village was upstream of them, and had a friendly relationship with Changze Village, and the two villages had married each other.
"Ah!" the man who had come ashore first cried out in horror and jumped back onto the bamboo boat.
The village was littered with corpses, the entire house had collapsed, and one had been burned to ashes. Everyone didn't dare to approach, so they first sent a sturdy man to support the bamboo boat and go to Daze County downstream to report to the official.
After a while, seeing that there was no other movement in the village, some black eagles fell from time to time, pecking at the corpses of the villagers, and the old man could not stand it, so he took the lead and drove away the hateful black eagles. Only then did everyone get older, and under the leadership of the old man, they began to search for survivors.
An hour later, the first to arrive was a few catchers, they came on horseback, the leader was Daze County Liu Zhutou, a careful investigation, found that the whole village nearly 100 people did not have a single alive, the villagers were all shattered internal organs and died, but also in the burned wooden house, found eight charred corpses.
Liu Zhutou has passed the age of knowing his fate and has rich experience, he speculates that the number of murderers is small, but his skills are unfathomable, and in a very short time, he killed the whole village, because there is no trace of a fight in the whole village.
Most of the villagers died around the charred wooden houses, and they were dressed in single clothes, and the crime should have been in the middle of the night, very hastily, ruling out the possibility of robbers entering the village to rob, and the villagers' money and property were not lost.
Seeing that there were some dead fish floating on the bank of the river, and some bamboo boats docked were also full of big fish, Liu Zhutou's heart sank suddenly, and Liu Zhutou looked at the village in ruins with a solemn face, and fell into deep thought.
Sujiabao suffered such a change, the atmosphere became very sad, Liu Yu and Tang Zhi stayed for more than ten days, and after attending the funeral, they said goodbye to Su Lao and set off back to Huangsheng Mountain. On the way back, Tang Zhi became a lot quieter, and also changed the eldest lady's temperament, eating, living, and traveling, and was not too picky, which made Liu Yu a lot easier.
"Dad, mother. Tang Zhi returned to the lobby of the cave mansion and shouted excitedly. It's been almost three months since he left Huang Shengzong, and Tang Zhi has never been away from his parents for so long, so he is very excited to get together.
"Master, master, it seems that you are not in the house. Seeing that there was no echo, Liu Yu spoke.
"Where did you go, senior brother, drink tea!" Tang Zhi muttered, came to the table and poured himself a cup of herbal tea, and poured a cup for Liu Yu by the way.
"Zhi'er, you're back, come in and meet your mother!" Suddenly, Tang Hao's deep voice came from a stone room.
"Dad, I didn't make a sound. Tang Zhi stood up in surprise, took the teacup, and walked into the stone room.
With a "snap", the Tangzhi teacup fell and shattered into several halves.
I don't know what happened, Liu Yu hurriedly walked into the stone room, only to see Tang Zhi stunned at the door, tears flowing down his cheeks, Tang Hao standing next to a spirit platform, his face was full of pain, his hair was messy, unkempt, like a drunkard.
Liu Yu turned his eyes and saw that there was a spirit card on the spirit platform, and the word "Su Hui" was engraved in the middle of the spirit card, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath and widen his eyes, this was actually Shi Niang's spirit card.
"Dad, how can this be, mother, what's wrong with her?" Tang Zhi rushed to Tang Hao's side and cried.
Tang Hao stretched out his hand and hugged the crying Tang Zhi into his arms, letting Tang Zhi cry.
"Zhi'er, your mother failed to build the foundation, left us, and went first. Tang Hao choked up and said.
"Dad, it's not true, it's not true. Tang Zhi has already cried into tears.
"Zhi'er, put incense on your mother!" Tang Hao said softly.
Tang Zhi stopped crying, took a pillar of incense with red eyes, and after saluting, he stepped forward and told the spirit card for a while, and then inserted it into the incense burner of the spirit card, and Liu Yu also followed a pillar of incense. then said goodbye to Tang Hao and left the cave, leaving space for their father and daughter to talk alone.
Walking on the forest path, the afterglow of the setting sun, through the leaves, shone on Liu Yu's tense face, he didn't expect the master to pass away like this, which was unbelievable. I felt an inexplicable chill in my heart, is Zhuji so dangerous?
Back to the bamboo house in Muyuan Courtyard, Liu Yu wanted to practice his skills, but he couldn't calm down, Liu Yu took out a crumpled letter and slowly unfolded it, it was the last letter left by his grandfather, between the lines, full of love and expectations for Liu Yu, as if taking Liu Yu back to the backyard of the dart game when he was a child, his grandfather hugged him and said something he didn't understand.
This letter has accompanied Liu Yu through countless lonely nights, and just reading a few lines can bring endless courage.
After a pillar of incense, Liu Yu put away the letter, calmed down, poured out a Melting Tibetan Pill, and began to concentrate on cultivation. Life is like a dream, white clouds and dogs, only to move forward, do not worry about the sky.
Huang Shengzong's life was like a pool of stagnant water, the surface of the water was calm without a single ripple. Liu Yu has been in the bamboo house for nearly ten days, most of the time has been in the bamboo house, I don't want to, I don't ask, I don't want to go anywhere, there are still two months before the next mission of the sect, Liu Yu decided to take a pill of Rongzang Pill for half a month to speed up the speed of ablation of qi and reservoir veins.
"Yu'er, the teacher has come in. Tang Hao came to Liu Yu's bamboo house, and said when he saw Liu Yu inside through the window.
"Master, why are you here? Liu Yu couldn't help asking.
Liu Yu opened his eyes from the meditation, extremely surprised, jumped out of bed and wanted to open the door, but Tang Hao had already pushed the door in.
"Yu'er, you're quiet enough. Tang Hao sat down, looked around and said.
The bamboo house is extremely simple, with a few wooden furniture, a single bed, and a small incense burner on the only wooden table in the middle of the house, which makes the room linger with a fresh fragrance.
These made Tang Hao feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity, recalling that in the past, he also came over like this, and his grieving heart after losing his wife unconsciously got a trace of relaxation.
