Volume 1: Forsaken Land Chapter 7: Homesickness
"Ahem...... It's rare to have such a treacherous mind at a young age. In the battle just now, you threw the Purple Cloud Gourd to Lao Dao, I'm afraid you also had the idea of letting Lao Dao and this group of mountain bandits lose both, right? Hehe, with such a meticulous and vicious mind, even Lao Dao felt frightened. But today, Lao Dao has to warn you one last sentence, before the other party completely breathes, don't feel that you have won the game, otherwise you may die miserably!"
As the Taoist spoke, a strange and spicy color suddenly flashed on his face, and he bit the tip of his tongue fiercely, and a mouthful of rich essence blood sprayed towards the Yin Soul Banner in front of him, and immediately, his palm gently patted the Yin Soul Banner in front of him, and the banner was spread horizontally.
The grimace that was the size of a car lid is now only the size of a washbasin, but the grimace in front of me is like a black crystal, condensed into substance, and it is obvious that it has undergone a qualitative change.
"The Yin Soul Banner that Dao Ye spent seven years refining for, but unfortunately, he can only drive it for the last time. ”
The fierce Taoist said in a non-hurried tone, a trace of nostalgia flashed on his face, but then it was replaced by a ferocity, staring at Kong Laosan who retreated into the distance, a touch of madness flashed in his eyes, and his hands suddenly pinched out a strange magic trick, and with a light touch towards his eyebrows, a gray mist erupted from his mouth. At the same time, the grimace of Sombra hanging in front of him seemed to have received some order, and when he opened his mouth, he swallowed the gray mist into his mouth.
The next moment, the original empty eyes and dull grimace suddenly became vivid, first looked up and down the entire grimace, and then turned his eyes, and when his gaze fell on Kong Laosan, above the ghost face, the ghost was steaming, as if he was extremely angry, without saying a word, he flew in the direction of Kong Laosan.
Seeing this scene, Kong Laosan frowned, his eyes flickered, but he saw that the eyes of the vicious Taoist were slightly closed, and the whole person seemed to be seated, motionless, like a sculpture.
"Huh...... I didn't expect the master to hide a hand, is this called "borrowing ghosts to return souls"? Or is it "taking away and being reborn"?
Kong Laosan smiled, there was no panic on his immature little face, until the grimace was approaching, he unhurriedly took out a pale yellow rune paper from his waist pocket, and gently rubbed it, the rune paper spontaneously combusted without wind, turned into a hot fireball, and ejected in the direction of the grimace.
"Roar!"
The scene in front of him seemed to be as unpredictable as the grimace was expected, and a look of obvious shock flashed on the grimace that had been fierce just now.
"Hehe, the master must be curious, why can I urge this spirit rune, right? The master is very relieved of me, a stupid apprentice, even the "Yin Spirit Sutra" is kept here by the apprentice, although the apprentice is not talented, it is also the qualification of the three spirit roots, and it takes five years to reach the third level of qi refining, and it is no problem to urge a few spirit runes. ”
Kong Laosan said, as if he had lost his patience, and slowly shook his head, "Anyway, in the bandits' den, the master also saved my apprentice's life, and I will bury the master well later." The disciple of the master taught the disciple to keep it in mind, and the disciple also had something to say to the master: The master's heart is still not ruthless enough!"
After speaking, his eyes suddenly moved to the Yin Soul Banner inserted into the ground, and there was a trace of strangeness in his eyes, and a cold cry suddenly erupted, "Don't do it yet, but when!"
The sound fell, and the surface of the Yin Soul Banner suddenly flashed with black rays, and as soon as these black rays appeared, they surged rapidly, like swimming fish in a pond, but in a moment, they had condensed into a black whirlpool. At the same time as this whirlpool appeared, a frightened expression suddenly flashed on the face of the black crystal ghost, and he turned around and was about to flee frantically outside the lobby, but he had just escaped halfway, and his entire body seemed to be crushed by the grinding disc, turning into a black air mass the size of a finger cover, all of which converged towards the Yin Soul Banner.
"Poof......
At the same time, the Taoist who was originally sitting cross-legged on the side suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, barely opened a trace of his eyes, stared straight at Kong Laosan, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, his head tilted, and he completely lost his vitality.
"Thank you for saving your life. ”
At the same time that the Taoist was completely breathing, in the Yin Soul Banner, the figure of Miss Chen Family loomed, and between the fluctuations of the pitch-black banner, a delicate voice slowly came out, revealing incomparable weakness in the voice.
"It's just mutual benefit, I wonder what Miss Chen's plans are in the future?"
waved his hand indifferently, and Kong Laosan's voice changed.
In the Yin Soul Banner, Miss Chen's voice did not come for a long time, just when Kong Laosan was a little stunned and wanted to ask again, a somewhat hesitant voice quietly came out, but the words that were said made Kong Laosan frown slightly.
"You want to stay in this shadow banner?"
Kong Laosan said with some uncertainty.
"My current state, as long as I leave the Yin Soul Banner, I will immediately be gone, and I hope that the little Taoist can be considerate. ”
Miss Chen said with some pleading, and the appearance on her face looked pitiful. Kong Laosan thought about it seriously, and finally nodded indispensably.
"I'm not one to be wiped out, you can stay in this ghost banner for the time being, but only for a year at most, and then you'll be gone. ”
"Thank you, little wayman, thank you!"
Miss Chen Jialong breathed a sigh of relief, and her originally pale cheeks also had two more shades of red, coupled with that peerless jade face, which made Kong Laosan shake his mind a little. Even in the era of the developed Internet in the previous life, all kinds of top Internet beauties are a little dwarfed by the women in front of them, especially the delicate temperament that I see pity on the woman's body, which adds a bit of unique charm.
Seeing that there were no more fluctuations on the banner surface, Kong Laosan thought about it, took out four or five rune papers from his waist, and under the urging, directly pasted them on the banner surface, completely imprisoning the breath of the Yin Soul Banner, and then moved his gaze to the surrounding white bone hall, and his eyes revealed a bit of fiery ......
======================================
The floods five years ago hit Pingzhou like never before. Natural disasters and man-made disasters, countless people have been displaced, corpses are everywhere, Yi Zi eats, and now after several years of recuperation, the land of Pingzhou is considered to have recovered some vitality, but the shadow of the disaster does not seem to have passed, most of the people here live in difficulty, many villages do not see people, understand this situation, Kong Laosan also has no heart to travel all the way to the mountains and rivers, want to go back quickly to see the impression of the home, so many years have passed, I don't know that the two old houses are still there, maybe they have been washed away by the torrent is not necessarily.
Pingzhou Shigu Village is just an inconspicuous small village, there are only more than 100 people in the whole village, but now back to this place again, Kong Laosan's expression is dark, at the entrance of the village, a stone that has been worn out and cannot be seen clearly stands quietly, on which the three big characters of "Shigu Village" have been blurred, Kong Lao's father once said that this stone tablet has existed when his father, that is, Kong Laosan's grandfather was young, and I don't know who engraved it at the beginning.
Hanging this huge gray pocket around his waist, carrying a flat Nansi package, and holding a black banner in one hand, Kong Laosan walked into the village with some embarrassment, and every step he took, there was a clanging sound of bottles and cans colliding in the waist bag, but it set off the loneliness of the surrounding environment more and more.
At this moment, it is noon, and at this time, some women, children, and old men in the village will squat in the corner of the wall with rice bowls, squatting in the corner and drinking hot noodle soup together, chatting about trivial and interesting things, like a family, but now, it is ......
There is the old man's house of Qi, the house has collapsed, it seems that no one has lived in it for a long time, there is the house of the fat sister-in-law, "hey" is still a trace of smoke, I don't know if Huzi is still there? This should be the house of the widow Wang, the husband died early, there are no children, a lonely person, it seems that this house has long been empty......
Kong Laosan walked all the way, looking at the many empty courtyards and grass houses around him, and suddenly had a feeling that things were not human. After a while, Kong Laosan's footsteps stopped in front of a dilapidated looking grass house, surrounded by a courtyard surrounded by hard emerald bamboo, but now many of these bamboo fences were rotten, and even many holes were arched by some wild beasts.
Kong Laosan pushed open the fence and walked towards the grass house, touching the dilapidated houses around him, his heart was suddenly suffocated, and the corners of his eyes were already a little moist.
In the courtyard, except for a dry well, there was only one old locust tree left, touching the bare trunk, Kong Laosan's heart moved, his eyes fixed on a few crooked handwriting, and the memories like a tide poured into his heart, "Kong Shan, Xu Cuiping, Kong Da, Kong Xiuni, Kong Laosan, Kong Ya ......"
"Father, mother, eldest brother, second sister, fourth sister......"
Kong Laosan muttered in his mouth, unable to suppress his inner emotions any longer, and big tears rolled down from his eyes.
For the eldest brother of Kong Da, Kong Laosan has a very vague impression, and he remembers that the eldest brother followed a blacksmith master in Yuer City, Hanzhou as an apprentice, and only came back once in three years.
The second sister, Kong Xiuni, is married to a showman from a neighboring village, and has never come back since she got married, but her mother has visited her twice. As for the fourth sister Kong Ya, who was still in infancy five years ago, if it weren't for the fact that her father saved her life from the flood, I am afraid that she would have ...... long ago
Kong Laosan thought about it, and unconsciously the sky had darkened, at this moment, Kong Laosan suddenly felt some movement outside the courtyard, turned his head and swept it, and happened to encounter a head sticking out of the wall, when Kong Laosan turned around, this little head seemed to be frightened, and hurriedly retracted.
