Volume 1: The Wind Rises in the Wasteland Chapter 9 (9): The Puppet
The Menghe River originates in the Beihan Mountains, and its two tributaries run through the whole territory of Mengzhou and Huangzhou respectively. This river is the longest river in mainland Kyushu.
The time has come to June, and it has been a month since Zhao An left Ningling unconsciously. Although Zhao An leaned on the railing next to the boat to look at the faintly visible river town wharf in the distance, his thoughts had already drifted home. Xiaoyu, this girl doesn't know what she's doing, and her father's body doesn't know what's going on.
When this task is completed, I will tell the head of the dart to quit the game. After experiencing this life and death crisis, Zhao An no longer wants to live such a life of licking blood with a knife. It's not that Zhao An is greedy for life and afraid of death, but he is worried that he is dead and no one will take care of his father and Xiaoyu.
That dream gave Zhao An a lot of stimulation and let him know how important his relatives were to him.
With the strength of his current Secret Treasure Realm, it would only take about two days to rush from River Town to Ningling.
...
Approaching noon, the Zhao family house in Ningling.
Knock knock!
Zhao Yu, who was playing in the garden, heard a knock on the door outside the house and couldn't help but be a little puzzled. At this time, the big guys are going to eat, and no one should come to visit their homes. My father and mother should be preparing lunch, but I had no choice but to open the door myself.
Zhao Yu walked to the door and opened the door with the strength of milk. There was a young man standing outside the door, dressed in green clothes and wearing a blue belt on his head, and this person was Xue Lin. Xue Lin squatted down, right. Touching Zhao Yu's head, he said in a kind tone.
"You are the little sister of Zhao Yu that Zhao An often talks about, it's so cute. ”
Zhao Yu used his arm to block Xue Lin's hand touching his head, looked up and said to Xue Lin, "Are you my brother's friend?"
"I'm your brother's brother. ”
"But why haven't I seen you in the game?" Zhao Yu asked.
"I'm out on missions a lot, so it's normal that you haven't seen me. ”
"I see, so what's the matter with you?"
"Can I go in and say, your brother asked me to bring you something. ”
After speaking, Xue Lin got up and walked towards the house, while Zhao Yu followed.
......
On the street outside the Zhao family's house.
Xu Hao stood in the shadow of the street corner and watched Xue Lin walk into the Zhao family's house, and he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.
That person is a blue ribbon in Tsing Yi, and he should be a member of the Xue clan in Huangnan. But what are the people of the Xue family looking for Zhao An's family? Could it be that the death of Su Bo's junior brother is related to the Xue family. If there is a relationship, then the relationship may be complicated.
Maybe Zhao An is coming back soon, and it seems that everything will come to an end.
"Who?"
Sensing that there was someone behind him, Xu Hao immediately gathered his breath in his palm and slapped it behind him. The person behind Xu Hao was not panicked, his hands were on his chest, and he condensed his qi into a shield. After Xu Hao saw the person's appearance clearly, he wanted to take his palm, but it was too late.
The palm slammed into the air shield, and with a muffled sound, the man was forced to step back to unload his palm.
"Lianqing, can you stop playing this kind of game. What should I do if I accidentally hurt you?" Xu Hao said angrily.
"Senior Brother Xu, didn't I test your vigilance? Besides, this trick of mine was taught to me by Senior Uncle Gu, and it is said that I can hard-catch the Secret Treasure Realm with a full force of one heaven. The person behind Xu Hao was Lian Qing who had returned from the deserted city.
"Tell you the truth, brother. You said in the letter that Ningling has clues, it can't be the house in front. ”
"Let's go back to the inn first, and we'll talk about it later. ”
The two of them left the street together.
......
Night gradually covers the land of Kyushu, and the sun sets.
Ningling.
In the Zhao family's house, all the rooms were not lit, and the whole house was dark. Xue Lin stood in the courtyard and looked up at the full moon in the sky, his body was motionless, and his eyes flashed with a strange light.
Zhao An, the back hand of the master's resurrection. The master went to great lengths to send me out, just to take good care of him.
Zhao An is not mature enough now, and he must change the trajectory of his life to change his temperament. In this way, you can follow the master's original spirit.
Behind Xue Lin, Zhao An's father and sister stood stupidly as if they had lost their minds, and kept muttering some words in their mouths.
Xue Lin looked back at the three people who were demented: "I don't know, what kind of expression he will have when he comes back and sees such a scene." ”
"Truly, awrely. Xue Lin couldn't help but laugh out loud when he thought of this. It's exciting!
......
The night is coming to an end.
The light of the full moon had faded, but the sky was still only cloudy, and the sun had not yet come out.
Zhao An looked at the gate of the Zhao family in front of him, and his heart was full of emotion. I traveled overnight, and I didn't even go to the dart game, just to see my family as soon as possible.
Zhao An knocked on the door, and then quietly waited for the door to be opened. At this time, my father and mother should have just woken up, and Xiaoyu's girl is probably still asleep.
With a creak, the door opened. It turned out to be Zhao Yu who opened the door, and Zhao An couldn't believe it. This girl is so abnormal!
"Why did you open the door, Daddy?" Zhao An asked.
"Come on in! Daddy is having breakfast. Let's eat together. ”
It's strange how you can eat breakfast so early?
"Good. ”
Zhao An followed Zhao Yu into the house. Xiaoyu, what's wrong, shouldn't you give me a loving hug? Is it because I've been away for too long and I'm angry with me.
on the dining table.
Zhao An's father and mother, Zhao Yu didn't talk to Zhao An, drinking white porridge quietly, his movements were a little stiff, like a soulless puppet.
Zhao An sat in a familiar chair, but he didn't have the familiar feeling before. Daddy and Xiaoyu have become weird, what the hell is going on. The atmosphere was a little weird.
Zhao An said uneasily: "What's wrong with all of you?." ”
After Zhao An said this, something even weirder happened. At the dining table, except for Zhao An, everyone else suddenly stopped.
Zhao An was taken aback, what the hell was going on?
"Zhao An, how is this situation?" A voice came from the gate.
Zhao An looked at the door in response, it was Xue Lin, and after being surprised, he asked angrily: "Xue Lin, what did you do to them!"
"It's nothing, it's just that it turns them into puppets. Rest assured, they're not dead, it's just that it's no different from death. ”
"You, you, you. ”
These words exploded in Zhao An's brain like a thunderbolt, and his reason was burned to ashes by the sudden rise of anger.
Zhao An's eyes were bloodshot, and his heart was full of anger. The black and red energy of the whole body exploded, the toes touched the ground, the ground cracked slightly, and Zhao An's figure rushed out of the house, smashing his fist into Xue Lin's chest.
Zhao An's fists were entangled with black and red energy, and his momentum was amazing. This is Zhao An's original black flame qi power with his own Chiyang palm strength combined with the evil qi in the "Suppressing Evil Dao Sutra", and its power far exceeds ordinary qi.
Xue Lin couldn't help frowning when he saw Zhao An's black flame strength so violent. How could this kid get so much stronger. However, he didn't panic, and took out the ancient long sword that had killed Su Bo, and a light blue sword light sword qi slashed out.
"Open it for me. ”
Zhao An smashed forward with both fists, and the black flame qi came out of his fists, and the violent qi directly dispersed the sword light. The air wave swept through the courtyard, and suddenly the wind was fierce.
"What a surprise you boy!"
Xue Lin rushed towards Zhao An with his sword, and the long sword in his hand was blue and blue, and he directly took Zhao An's head. The two fought together, and they were even indistinguishable.
"Don't think you've broken through the Vault Realm to fight me. Subo's death is your best example. ”
Xue Lin said while parrying Zhao An's fist.
Zhao An couldn't hear anything at this time, and his anger made him lose his mind. At this moment, he just wants to take Xue Lin's life and help his father and mother and Xiaoyu avenge it.
"Kill!"
