Chapter 6: Separation

"Is there such a thing?" Xu Chuan stood up from his seat, seemingly unconvinced.

"Boom—" The terrifying thunder sounded again in the sky.

The soldier pushed open the door and looked up wistfully at the deserted street. The rain dripped mercilessly down on his messy hair, and his armor became wet.

Soon, the stormy storm began to slowly subside, and the people in the street poked their heads out, one, two...... They are carrying bags, or holding children, or supporting the elderly, ready to leave this former bustling city.

Everything has changed.

"This time, the loss of Bianjing City is a foregone conclusion. The soldier was reluctant and turned back to pick up the tassel gun on his seat.

"Thank you for the advice, you should take care. Yan Tianchen's last words made his heart tremble.

The soldier may have been relieved, or he had accepted the decision with ease.

The soldier left in a hurry, disappearing into the streetscape, and even the back was gone.

"Tianchen, what are you going to do now?" Xu Chuan came back to his senses and realized that he had been flustered for a long time.

"Finally, I want to go back and see my lord first, he is my only remaining relative. Yan Tianchen looked directly at Xu Chuan, "I have a bad premonition, I'm afraid it will happen." ”

Confused and weak answer.

"If you want to go back together, you have only recovered from your injuries, I can't leave you behind, right?" Xu Chuan stretched out his right hand and gestured to shake his palm.

"Fat Xu......" Yan Tianchen reached out and held his palm.

It's not a long way to get home, but it's still going to take a while.

The crowd of people who had turned their backs rushed in, making the sound of messy footsteps, and they were more interested in their lives than their captives.

Suddenly the streets were in shambles.

Yan Tianchen was worried when he saw this, and continued to rush towards the mansion with all his strength, Xu Chuan followed closely behind.

Time is ticking, and worries are slowly accumulating.

"The gate of Yanfu has arrived!" Xu Chuan's voice came from behind.

Outside the gate of Yan's mansion was already flooded, all kinds of branches, leaves, mud and stones were mixed together, trees were toppled, and roof tiles were all over the ground, and the scene was no different from the situation after the disaster.

With a "bang", the door of Yan's mansion was pushed open heavily, Yan Tianchen did not stay to rest, but continued to run towards the main room, the sound of shortness of breath was no less than the sound of footsteps.

I saw that the door of the main room of the Yan Mansion was open, but the room was extremely dark, and the darkness it exuded was intimidating, making people dare not stop for a second.

Yan Tianchen looked around roughly, no one lived in the room, and with a flash of thunder, he could briefly see the messy tables and stools.

Suddenly, Yan Tianchen's lips trembled slightly.

"Heavenly ...... Morning, yes...... It's you back...... Is it so?" the voice was soft, coming from the floor.

Then, Yan Tianchen lowered his head and looked at an old man sitting against the wall.

Yan Tianchen stepped forward to touch it, and found that the old man's eyes had been blinded, and his hands could not escape the fate of being broken. What's even more excessive is that the old man also has a sharp dagger stuck in his waist.

Indignation immediately swept through Yan Tianchen's body.

"Ha, it's the old man......" Xu Chuan finished speaking with joy, but the smile on his face slowly froze.

"Xu Chuan, too...... You're back......" Old Man Yan said softly again, unexpectedly coughing up blood.

Large mouthfuls of blood poured to the ground, scattering into a pool of blood. Xu Chuan stepped forward in surprise to support the old man.

"What's going on?" Xu Chuan wanted to cover the blood on Old Man Yan's waist with his hand to stop it from flowing out, but it was still to no avail.

"I'm running out of time...... Morning, you must ...... Get that ...... back Sabre, that's ...... Your father's relics, that's why I'm hiding...... This matter is over......"

"My Father's Relic ......"

Sabre...... It's me...... The last wish. ”

Yan Tianchen held back the tears that flowed out, knelt down on his knees, and didn't know what to say.

"With you two excellent guys, I haven't lived most of my life in vain, an old man. Old Man Yan gasped, "Finally, I ask you two to ...... well Live well ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Old Man Yan choked up, his head naturally hung to one side, and the hands that were clutching the two of them also lost their remaining strength.

"Whoaaaaa

There was a burst of men's mournful wails from the main hall of the Yan Mansion, which moved the heavens and the earth, and they could not disperse for a long time.

"Hmm-" Yan Tianchen sobbed and smashed the ground into two obvious dents.

Xu Chuan also shed tears to his own eyes and couldn't stop wiping them.

When emotions erupt, they can be as powerful as a ferocious flood.

Even if you recapture the sword and jade, it will be meaningless, Yan Tianchen thought sadly.

Xu Chuan is a person who knows how to understand, so he didn't choose to talk too much to comfort others, just stared blankly, and that was enough.

"I was born without extraordinary talent and talent, and as a handyman, I have never complained. Yan Tianchen came to the old man's side, half-squatted, stretched out his hand to close the old man's eyes, and said, "Master, I can have me because of you, and Yan Tianchen is here to thank you for your great kindness." ”

Thousands of thoughts flashed through their hearts, but regret never spoke. Yan Tianchen gently picked up the old man and walked out of the door of the main room.

Xu Chuan turned around and ran back to the utility room to pull out the shovel, staggered back to the place, and resolutely shoveled up the dirt.

Then, Yan Tianchen slowly placed the old man in the new pit, and filled the soil again with a shovel, not forgetting to glance at it a few more times.

Da Da Da –

Someone hurried towards the main hall from outside the door, making no small footsteps.

"Oops, it's the rebels, the east of the city is falling faster than expected!" Xu Chuan grabbed the corner of his clothes, and it seemed that there was no time left to escape.

The rebels have surrounded the entire Yan Mansion and are bound to capture everyone alive.

"Damn, how can you let them be captured alive, you run first, and I will be behind." Yan Tianchen recovered his spirit and said bluntly.

"No, Brother Tianchen, I've decided ......"

"Decide what?"

"I'm here to attract the rebels, you quickly escape through the secret passage behind the bookshelf in the master's study!"

"Now is not the time to joke! ”

"Brother Tianchen, I'm serious, the actions of the two are too eye-catching, if it's me, I can easily detect Ni Duan. ”

"I can't. ”

"Did you hear me when I told you to run away?" Xu Chuan scolded him angrily for the first time, and it didn't look like him at all.

"But ......"

"No, do you want us both to be buried here? It's better to have one alive than two to die miserably. ”

Yan Tianchen closed his mouth and gave up the idea of arguing with him.

Facing the pressing of the rebels step by step, Yan Tianchen had no choice but to follow Xu Chuan to the door of the old man's study.

"Quick, get in now, there's no time!"

"Fat Xu, this time I'm being willful, I'm sorry. ”

"Brother Tianchen, what are you talking about? We have never had anyone owe anyone. Without further ado, hurry inside!"

The mechanism of the secret passage in the study is close at hand, and Xu Chuan can reach it with his hand.

"I ......"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry!"

The rebels crowded into the backyard of the study, just one door away from them.

"I'm sorry, brother, you owe me this time. Yan Tianchen exerted his strength, and then hammered down the secret path mechanism with a fist.

The bookshelves in the study were instantly withdrawn, Xu Chuan did not stabilize his center of gravity, and rolled into the dark passage.
