Lu Ping ran all the way again and ran back in the direction of the inn. Not long after, I returned to the inn. From a distance, I saw the fire rise in Zhangfuzhong, illuminating the surrounding land for several miles. Many people were busy fighting the fires around Zhangfu.

Lu Ping jumped onto the back wall of the inn again and entered the guest room through the window. But I saw Xiao Ling lying on the bed, still asleep. Occasionally, he whispered a few words, and he exhaled words like 'Dad, Mom, Ling'er is back'. Obviously, in the more than two years he has been away, Xiao Ling has been thinking about going home all the time. Lu Ping heard Lu Ping's dream words, and thought that he was finally going to be able to bring his brother home intact, and he felt extremely relieved.

Until dawn, Lu Ping and Xiao Ling woke up. I went out of the inn for breakfast, and I heard people around me talking about the destruction of Zhangfu.

"What a sin, hundreds of people in the whole house were killed. ”

"Early in the morning, the government surrounded the entire Zhangfu, and I don't know if anyone survived. ”

"It must have been done by a robber nearby, Zhang Fu doesn't have any enemies on weekdays, it must be a robber who came to rob money and kill people. ”

••••••

Xiao Ling listened to these discussions and was a little curious. I was going to ask someone about it. Lu Ping stopped it with his eyes in time. Then Lu Ping urged Xiao Ling to finish breakfast and hurry away early to prevent unintentional branches.

At that moment, after the two finished eating, they went back to the inn to collect their luggage, settled the bill, and went in the direction of Linyang Village.

The two traveled for another two days, and there was nothing to say all the way. On the third day, the two stepped into the Danxia Mountain boundary.

Xiao Ling saw the familiar scenery and recalled the difficult days of more than two years. When I thought of seeing my loved ones again day and night, a feeling of coming back to life suddenly rose. After more than two years, Xiao Ling seems to have understood a lot of truths. I almost never saw that familiar home again, and I almost died in a foreign country, unable to repay my parents' nurturing kindness. How much has everything changed in two years? At this time, Xiao Ling's heart was extremely excited and eager.

After walking for half a day, the two of them arrived at the inquiry house first. Ask the middle Lu Tianwu sat on a chair and looked up at the sky. Muttered inaudible words. In the space of two years, the once muscular man had lost a lot of weight, with a little gray hair on his sideburns and many wrinkles on his face. When Lu Ping saw his father's appearance, his heart was sour: "Dad, Ping'er and Brother Lingdi are back!"

Hearing Lu Ping's scream, Lu Tianwu was shocked, and then jumped up from the chair: "Ping'er, it's Ping'er! You're back, haha! I knew you would come back together." Lu Tianwu took three steps and ran to Lu Ping, in front of Xiao Ling. I looked around the two of them for a while. As if to make sure that the two children who had grown up with him came back intact. The joy looked like that of a happy child: "Ping'er, since Danxia sent the news that you had disappeared, I knew that you must have gone to find your spiritual brother." I knew that if you two brothers grew up rolling together, you would definitely appear in front of us together. Do you know how worried we are!" said the strong man, tears welling up in his eyes. It was tears of excitement, tears of joy.

Then Lu Tianwu grabbed Xiao Ling's hands again, carefully looked at the thick calluses and scars on Xiao Ling's hands, and looked at Xiao Ling's darkened skin: "Ling'er, how much have you suffered! Hurry, hurry! Go see your parents." They're all worried about you. It's all my fault that my uncle is not good, and he has caused you so much suffering!" After speaking, he pulled Xiao Ling and ran towards Xiao Ling's house.

The distance between the asking house and Xiao Ling's house was only a few hundred meters, Lu Tianwu took Lu Ping, Xiao Ling walked all the way, and shouted in his mouth: "Brother Shengyi, Ling'er is back, Ling'er is back!"

In the distance, the people in the village heard Lu Tianwu's shout. I could hear Xiao Shengyi's and his wife's shouting: "Ling'er is back!Where is it? My son is back, hurry!" The couple who ran out of the house also had much whiter temples and more wrinkles. The voice was excited and joyful.

When Xiao Ling saw his parents coming out, he couldn't help but run up and rushed into his parents' arms, and couldn't help but feel like a child for a while, tears flowed out: "Dad, Mom." Ling'er is back, Ling'er is fine. Ling'er is fine. "In the past two years, how many times have I dreamed of seeing my parents. How many times in my dreams, I saw my parents with tears streaming down my eyes outside my dreams. When I met today, I finally burst into tears, just like a child who has been greatly wronged. Although Xiao Ling was already a big boy at this time. But in front of his parents, in their eyes, he will always be a child.

Not long after, in front of Xiao Ling's house, people from the village gathered over. After Xiao Ling and Lu Ping met his family. all asked about the life of the two of them outside for two years.

Xiao Ling, after Lu Ping dealt with it simply. Lu Tianwu went home and prepared a banquet. In the crowd, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl was also in the crowd. looked at Lu Ping and Xiao Ling with eager eyes. This girl is Hu Yue, the daughter of Hu Yuan.

In the past two years, this Hu Yue has been constantly practicing martial arts in Qiuwenju. I am always looking forward to reuniting my parents. It's just that whenever he wants to go out to find his parents, Lu Tianwu will persuade him. Although this Hu Yue kept practicing martial arts, Lu Tianwu was self-aware after all, even if Hu Yue learned all his skills, going to the Dalu Huachi Mansion would be sent to death. Yes, I can only find various reasons to constantly persuade Hu Yue.

Now Xiao Ling and Lu Ping are back. This Hu Yue was anxious to ask about her parents. But seeing Xiao Ling's family reunited, he didn't have a chance to ask questions for a while, so he had to wait in the crowd.

When the villagers dispersed, Xiao Ling and Lu Ping looked at Hu Yue, who was full of anxiety. The two thought of the life of hard labor, and then thought of the possible fate of Hu Yue's parents, and faced Hu Yue for a while, they couldn't speak.

Hu Yue stepped forward: "Brother Lu Ping, Brother Xiao Lingxian, do you have any news of my parents?"

Xiao Ling replied: "I was arrested in the imperial examination room that day, and then I was put in prison, and then I was used as hard labor. Until my eldest brother came and rescued me. I didn't see Ling Zun and his wife during this period, so I really don't know where they are now?"

Lu Ping also replied: "In order to find my spiritual brother, I wandered around the places where the hard labor was active during the period. I have never heard of the Lingzun couple, and I am afraid that the Lingzun couple will have other opportunities. Sister Hu Yue, you don't have to worry too much. ”

Hu Yue heard the answers of the two, and there was no news of her parents. Although I was in a hurry, I couldn't do anything for a while.

In the afternoon, this Lu Tianwu happily prepared a large table of sumptuous dishes. The Lu family and the Xiao family, as well as Hu Yue, gathered for dinner. Except for Hu Yue, everyone was happy to reunite after a long absence. The Lu family couple and the Xiao family couple inquired vigorously about the lives of Lu Ping and Xiao Ling in the past two years. Lu Ping and Xiao Ling took turns to talk about their experiences. In order to avoid the worries of their parents, the two of them checked some interesting and simple things to talk about. There is no mention of the suffering suffered in these two years.

After Lu Tianwu finished telling the two of them about their experiences, he told him that he had asked people to inquire about the whereabouts of the two many times, but he found nothing. During the two years, the Danxia faction also came many times to inquire about the news of Lu Ping and Xiao Ling.

One of the people sent by Danxia was Long Ding, who came to ask Ju twice, and each time he came to inquire about Xiao Ling's news. There is also a person who is Lu Shao, who has come to inquire about Lu Ping's news many times.

Lu Tianwu was full of smiles when he talked about Lu Shao. He praised Lu Shao and said that he was smart and could work. Every time I come, I have to perform the stunts I have learned, and I often discuss some martial arts formation knowledge with Lu Tianwu. And every time he came, he helped Lu Tianwu do some farm work, and often changed some tricks to make his old man happy.

Xiao Ling and Lu Ping each heard that Long Ding and Lu Shao cared about him, and they were also grateful in their hearts.

When the meal was over, it was late at night, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Xiao Ling and Lu Ping lived in Linyang Village for several days. The two experienced the preciousness of family affection and nostalgia between neighbors. After two years of life in the outside world, both of them enjoyed such days immensely.

In the evening of this day, after dinner. Lu Ping, Xiao Ling came to the country road where he often played when he was a child, surrounded by rice fields that the two were very familiar with, and the rice seedlings in the rice fields grew very luxuriantly. At this time, it was June and July, and the seedlings in the rice field had been hung with rice ears, but the rice ears had not yet grown fruit, and they were all green ears.

The two sat on the ridges, smelling the familiar mix of country dirt and weeds. Lu Ping looked up at the sky. At this time, a round of sunset was hanging halfway up the mountain: "What a beautiful view, Brother Ling." I still remember when I was a child, we used to look at the clouds in the sky like this. ”

Xiao Ling also looked up at the sky: "Yes, time is really fast." We're all about to grow up. ”

Lu Ping continued: "I plan to go back to Yangyuan Mountain tomorrow, my Danxia Mind Method has been cultivated to the fourth layer, and I must learn the next few layers of Mind Method formulas." Ben Lei Mind Method and Danxia Heart Method are one strong and one soft, and they can complement each other when they practice, and now I also feel that the true qi in my body is becoming more and more abundant. You can also go to the library to pick up some more advanced kung fu to practice. Brother Ling, I don't know what your plan is? Why don't you go up to Danxia Mountain with me, and then let's go and talk to Uncle Longding, how about letting you go to the library to manage the collection again?"

Xiao Ling replied: "Big brother, in these two years of life. I'm scared of one thing, and that's death. Actually, if it's me. I don't think there's anything to be afraid of dying. But whenever I think about how my parents will be deprived of support after I die, I think of how sad and painful they will be. My heart was so painful and I was so afraid. I hadn't thought about these things before, but in the past two years of my life, I have been close to the brink of death too many times, and I have seen death happen all around me. It was only then that I understood this simple truth. Therefore, if possible, I will stay in Linyang Village, stay by their side, and do some filial piety. ”

Lu Ping turned his head and looked at Xiao Ling with a strange look: "Brother Ling, you have grown up." We've all grown up. Hahahaha!"

The two brothers laughed as they leaned shoulder-to-shoulder.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day arrived. Lu Ping said goodbye to everyone, although Lu Tianwu and his wife were reluctant, but seeing that their son's ability was getting better and better, and he should also have his own pursuits, they didn't stay longer. It's just a reminder all the way to take care of your body and be careful in everything. Lu Ping walked towards Yangyuan Mountain on his own. Lu Tianwu led everyone to see them off. You don't return until you've sent it far away.
