More than ten years have passed, which is enough for a bright-eyed teenager to grow into a silent youth.

It is enough to extinguish the light in the eyes of a young man who yearns for freedom, naïve and stubborn.

Judging from the figures, the two masked figures should be two adult men, Chang Ling did not hide his face, and the pale girl who suddenly appeared, her bright face bloomed on the gray and devastated land of Yanzhou.

This scene is very weird.

The man in front of him was holding a white 'thing' in his arms, presumably a small animal that was good at tracking.

That's it, I found Chang Ling.

Suddenly, the man holding the spirit beast had a pitch-black dagger in his hand and stabbed it violently at the person on his side.

The start is steady, accurate, and right to the point.

His companion hurriedly reached out and trembled to grasp the man's dagger-clutching arm.

By this time the dagger had been plunged into his throat.

There was a constant ho-ho sound in his throat, and through the mask, I could barely see the confusion and confusion in his eyes.

His question was never answered again.

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you come over and help?" said the young man who held the dagger tightly and said to Chang Ling.

Chang Ling paused for a moment and ran over in three steps and two steps.

The Yuan Sacrifice Sword in his hand nailed the signal for help released by the dying youth.

The man seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and the hand holding the 'murderer' was loosened little by little, and the whole person fell to the ground with a bang.

Blood gushed down the wound on his neck, and was soon absorbed by the gray earth.

The man, who was still standing, bent down and pulled the dagger from his neck, carefully wiped the blood from the dagger on him, and disappeared into his palm as soon as he flipped it.

He gently stroked the snow-white beast in his arms and looked at the woman in front of him fixedly.

They were only about half a head apart, and she didn't need to look up at him deliberately.

After a long time, there was a bang, breaking the peace between the two.

The mask on the face of the standing young man fell to the ground in one fell swoop.

"Gu Siyu. Chang Ling said in a choked voice.

Over and over again, she read his name.

Chang Ling gradually squatted down, his whole body shrunk into a ball, and he couldn't help crying.

Looking back on her life in just a few decades, drinking with Gu Siyu and Fu Ning in Qingzhou as a companion, it was her most tender old dream.

She originally thought that she would never see these two partners again in her life.

Heaven has mercy.

Gu Siyu took a few steps forward, squatted down, and gently patted Chang Ling's back.

I haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and they've all changed.

He asked tentatively, "Have you been banned in Yanzhou for more than ten years?"

Chang Ling nodded.

Gu Siyu gasped, hurriedly took a few steps back, bent down and took off the mask on the face of the corpse that had fallen to the ground.

After a cleaning technique, he handed it to Chang Ling in front of him.

"Hurry up and put on this mask, this can effectively isolate the demonic energy, if there is any discomfort in your body now, tell me quickly, don't explore, you change into his clothes, and I will take you out immediately." Gu Siyu said eagerly.

He pointed to the corpse beside him.

Looking at Chang Ling's gaze, Gu Siyu opened his mouth and explained: "If we can't let him see you, we didn't think that there would be someone in Yanzhou who would survive." We received an order from the family to kill any living creatures we encounter in Yanzhou, and as for the junction between Yanzhou and that side, there are Yuanying Realm monks stationed there, once your news leaks out......"

Gu Siyu's words were not finished, but both of them fully understood what he meant.

"Chang Ling, there are only a hundred places to enter Yanzhou this time, and the quota for leaving Yanzhou is naturally the same, if you want to go out, you must borrow an identity, don't think about the identity of those disciples of each sect, the best way is to borrow his identity to follow me. ”

"He is my brother, and he should call me brother. ”

Chang Ling was silent and put on the hideous mask and changed into the same robe as Gu Siyu, and it was a coincidence that her height was exactly the same as the corpse.

Gu Siyu watched Chang Ling's movements, she had already rehearsed them countless times in her mind, if she continued to question him or pointed her sword at him, how would he tell her to understand the truth.

As he grew older and more experienced, his world was no longer clean.

But no.

After Chang Ling finished all that, he looked at him who was still standing in place, although he couldn't see her face clearly, he knew that she must be expressing her doubts.

Why are you still standing there.

At this moment, Gu Siyu suddenly understood deeply and desperately that they had all grown up.

He let out a low chuckle, picked up the mask that had fallen to the ground, put it on, and turned to continue walking.

He had so much to say, but he didn't know how to say it.

There is no need to ask, he also knows that Chang Ling has not had a good time over the years.

The two walked forward for a while, and Gu Siyu turned around and said, "Your name is Gu Siping, you are at home for nine years, and you are in the concentrating realm." ”

Chang Ling nodded, and while they were talking, the white ball in Gu Siyu's arms poked his head out, and a pair of big black eyes looked directly at Chang Ling.

Probably because only Ah Bi was always by his side, Chang Ling had a lot of good feelings for this soft little animal, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud when he looked at this little guy.

"Chang Ling, this is Xiaobai. Gu Siyu said.

Chang Ling was stunned, in her memory, it was the majestic tiger who was called Xiaobai.

"Life and death are fateful, Xiaobai, it still can't accompany me to continue. Gu Siyu explained softly, as he spoke, his slender fingers kept running over Xiaobai's fur in his arms.

It seemed that because he heard his name, Xiaobai whined a few times in dissatisfaction.

Yes, Gu Siyu was called back to the family in a hurry that day, and Chang Ling occasionally heard some news about the Gu family, and they were inseparable from the 'chaos' and 'changes'.

Gu Siyu, who is in the middle of it, must have had an extremely difficult and hard time.

Chang Ling also patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.

Gu Siyu chuckled: "It's all over, I haven't asked you yet, what experience have you had over the years." ”

"Since you left, Fu Ning has entered Qingshan Academy. Chang Ling could clearly feel that as soon as the name Fu Ning came out, the young man in front of him couldn't help but shrink a little.

She continued: "Later, I chose to go to Youzhou to participate in the demon killing operation......

"Wait, that 'Chang Ling' that the Canglan Sword Sect offered a reward in Youzhou is really you?" Gu Siyu hurriedly asked.

Chang Ling nodded.

"Before you went to Qingzhou, were you from the Canglan Sword Sect?" Gu Siyu asked.

Chang Ling still nodded.

The young man did not ask any further.

Chang Ling couldn't help but sigh, people like Gu Siyu who didn't go to Youzhou know themselves, so now that he goes out, I'm afraid he still has to be careful.

Even when talking to her former friends, Chang Ling still involuntarily skipped some details, and even omitted all her encounters in Yuanhuamen, and soon talked about after she entered Yanzhou.

After hearing that Chang Ling barely escaped because he was hunted by trees, Gu Siyu couldn't help but be amazed.

The face under his mask was very solemn.

"I didn't expect that in this Yanzhou, even plants would become demon spirits. ”

Chang Ling nodded matter-of-factly.

He also told his survival experience over the years.

Gu Siyu is a qualified listener.

In addition to the constant troubles of Chang Ling in terms of survival over the years, there is also loneliness that has penetrated into the bone marrow.

Ah Bi couldn't avoid the infection of demonic energy, and Chang Ling would hardly release it from the storage artifact.

Before this group of disciples who entered Yanzhou to explore, Chang Ling didn't know how long it had been since he had seen living beings, and he didn't know how long he hadn't talked to others.

She had so much to say.

Only then did she know that her yearning for excitement in her bones was indelible.

She covets all warmth and prosperity.

After listening to Chang Ling's words, Gu Siyu supported his chin and analyzed, gave her some advice, and then continued: "Although most of the forces of the Gu family and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect in Yanzhou have been evacuated, some formations arranged according to the terrain have been abandoned, and on the whole, our losses are still immeasurable. ”

"In order to continue to have the right to speak on the mainland in the future, in the past ten years, the Gu family has continued to integrate with the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate, for example, I am now also a true disciple of the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate. ”

"This time, under the chaos of the forces under our control, the barrier was opened after consultation, and this time I returned to Yanzhou, but I really have a task. ”

As soon as he paused, Chang Ling hurriedly answered: "If there is anything that needs me, just say it directly." ”

Gu Siyu laughed a few times, and after a long time, his smile did not stop.

"Chang Ling, Chang Ling. ”

"I'm going to go to the old site of the original Yanzhou Gu clan to find something that was left inside in a hurry that day that was evacuated that day. ”

Gu's Former Site...... Chang Ling crossed the distribution map of Yanzhou in his mind, and soon had a plan.

"I'll walk you there. She spoke.

"After all, I have also been in Yanzhou for more than ten years, and after all these years, Yanzhou has actually changed a little. Chang Ling explained.

For example, the once prosperous and beautiful forests have become today's ghost forests, and there are indeed a few 'dead places' in the huge Yanzhou.

Gu Siyu didn't shirk it, and took out some bottles and jars from the storage artifact and threw them on Chang Ling.

"I feel that your breath is still a little unstable, I'm not in a hurry, you can rest and recuperate first. ”

"Although you have some things that are against the sky, you shouldn't be able to use these pills, but this is all my heart, as a friend, I can only do so much for you. Gu Siyu said softly.

Chang Ling couldn't help but clench the porcelain bottle in his hand.

After taking a few pills according to the words on it, Chang Ling sat aside and began to breathe.

Gu Siyu stood beside her, scouting the situation around her.

Suddenly, Chang Ling thought that he had returned to the time when they were still roaming in Lingzhou.

With someone trustworthy guarding him, Chang Ling's cultivation was distracted, and his recovery from his injuries was a little faster.

It's been a long time since I've experienced the feeling of being guarded like this.

............

Three days later, Gu Siyu and Chang Ling, who were ready to go, embarked on a journey to the Gu family's old site.

The Gu family of Yanzhou, as the largest Xiuzhen family in Yanzhou in the past, was able to sit together with the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect as the Nine Great Sects in its heyday, and the location was naturally in the center of Yanzhou.

It's not far from where they are, and it only takes about a day and a night to run at full speed.

Chang Ling was okay, but the demonic qi brought a lot of trouble to Gu Siyu.

His Xiaobai didn't know when he had been taken back into the spirit beast bag, and he couldn't bear the air of Yanzhou when he thought about it.

Since the death of his former partner, Gu Siyu has been depressed for a long time.

However, as the future heir of the Gu family who won in the end, he couldn't do without a contract spirit beast.

After walking around his own cave, he finally brought out this delicate little one.

It's a juvenile wind chaser.

If it weren't for the fact that its bloodline was really pure, no one in the Gu family would be willing to take a second look at it.

They didn't expect that the young talent in their family would form a bond with such a stubborn spirit beast.

The Wind Chaser's only ability is tracking, and its nose can distinguish any scent in the air with incredible accuracy, and it has a wide range.

After watching Xiaobai die in front of him, Gu Siyu made up his mind that in the future, there was no reason to let his partner rush forward to die for him in any case.

He never chose the Wind Chaser to fight, and in the following ten years, he practiced all kinds of spells.

When he was a teenager, he desperately wanted to escape from the family's 'contract spirit beast' and practice according to the characteristics of the spirit beast, but now he tried his best and barely broke free.

He became the most beautiful one of the spirit beast masters in the Gu family.

............

Coincidentally, Gu Siyu had just released Xiao Bai from the spirit beast bag to breathe, and let it capture Chang Ling's breath.

After listening to Gu Siyu's flat tone, Chang Ling could only be silent.

Previously, when he talked about his past, most of them were picking some interesting things, and he thought it was also to tease Chang Ling.

Whose life is so easy.

Because it would be disturbed by demonic energy, Gu Siyu also stepped on the Yuan Sacrifice Sword, and Chang Ling commanded the flying sword in mid-air, and the speed of moving forward was not very fast.

The gray vine in the ghost forest will not be the only surviving demon spirit in Yanzhou.

Especially Chang Ling, who has been dealing with demon spirits for so many years, is even more cautious.

A hundred monks is still too insignificant for the entire Yanzhou, and they haven't seen a single figure along the way.

Time flew by, and the next day, when the sun rose, they stood side by side beside the ruined building.

Just by looking at the ruins on the ground, you can see what a magnificent landscape it once was.

The plaque was shattered into an unknown number of pieces, and the word 'Gu' could still be seen on it if it was barely pieced together.
