Chapter 53: Old Man Star

Xue Xuan had been sitting on the ridge until late at night, knowing that the moonlight was shining on his face, he had only come back to his senses, it was already late.

"Then here it is. ”

He thought about it a lot, thinking about the future of his parents, his own future, and his little sister Xuefu who was far away in Kunyuan Mountain.

He had promised Xuefu that he would protect her even if he gave his life, what if she was in danger now?

Headache!

Xue Xuan really felt a little headache, and at present, he could only settle his parents as soon as possible, and then make another plan.

Taking out his spear from the storage space, Xue Xuan was not used to putting the spear in the storage space, but it was not very convenient many times, so he changed the habit of holding the spear all the time.

Xue Xuan didn't wave it in a hurry, but put the spear horizontally in front of him, groping gently, and his eyes were very soft, as if he was looking at his lover.

"You've been with me for a long time, and it's my fault that I haven't named you yet......

What's it called? Seven kills, blood killings?

No, it's too violent, so let's just call it hot snow. ”

The hot snow in Xue Xuan's hand was neither hot, nor was it snowing now, and he didn't know why he had such a name, maybe he felt that the hot blood gun was too cold to the touch.

It was a biting chill, and since Xue Xuan had just obtained this hot snow, he could feel the eerie murderous aura on it.

And now, in Xue Xuan's adventures for so long, that murderous aura has become more and more intense, and it is about to seep out.

......

Gently waving the hot snow, the movements are sometimes slow, sometimes urgent, the body is like a remnant flower fluttering in the wind, it seems to be chaotic but it contains deep meaning, it seems to be crumbling, but in fact, it seems to be rooted under the feet.

Yi Ming had used the swordsmanship they had created when they were drinking last night when he was fighting against Ling Yongkang, and Xue Xuan had also created a move, but he didn't use it, because he felt that there had always been something unsatisfactory, and the marksmanship that was obviously a happy Jianghu now seemed to have a hint of stagnation.

Wrong!

That's not right either!

The hot snow danced more and more chaotically in his hands, and Xue Xuan's brain seemed to have countless ants crawling, and his mouth became very thirsty inexplicably, but he knew that what he wanted to drink was not water, but wine.

In the end, it was a cold wind in late autumn that calmed him down, put the hot snow into the storage space, and then lay on the ridges, his eyes closed, feeling the chill, his mind gradually cleared, but his thoughts drifted away.

......

Early the next morning, it was just dawning.

"Xiao Shi Tong obediently practices boxing, I'll go out!"

Xiao Shi Tong smiled at Xue Xuan very obediently, the first thing he did when he got up every morning was to practice the boxing techniques that Xue Xuan taught him, and it had never changed, following Xue Xuan for nearly half a year, the perseverance of practicing day and night, Xue Xuan could sigh to himself.

Not only boxing, but later Yiming taught him swordsmanship, he also practiced it tirelessly, and his small figure carried a sword that could be shoulder to shoulder with him every day.

Xue Xuan didn't go out too far this time, so he didn't bother Yiming, Yiming delayed a lot of practice in order to help him during this time, and his own practice could be delayed, but people couldn't, even if Yiming would never say these words, but Xue Xuan understood.

When he came to the city far away, the sergeant guarding the city was overjoyed when he saw that it was him, and he went straight to the barracks.

"Xue Shaoxia!"

Seeing that it was Xue Xuan, Zhou Peiquan, who was busy with the city defense construction map, immediately greeted him, but he didn't see Sima Yichen's figure.

"Have you thought about the migration?"

"Don't think about it, you can go at any time!"

Xue Xuan thought that he was already very straightforward, but Zhou Peiquan was more neat than him, and immediately responded.

This is probably due to his trust in Xue Xuan and his own judgment, seeing Xue Xuan coming over to ask this question in such a hurry, he must have thought everything through.

"It's really your blessing to meet me, you will live in Xuejia Village in the future, the construction of the city defense will be handed over to you, and the sowing and cultivation will be handed over to my father!"

Xue Xuan showed a wry smile and rubbed his eyebrows with his hands, even if he didn't sleep all night and thought about things all night, his brain hurt a little.

"May I ask who Ling Zun is?"

"Xue Li!"

Xue Xuan is very confident, no one in Zhenyuan City will know the name Xue Li, his father is very good at management, and he is also very benevolent and kind to the people.

With a wave of his hand, Xue Xuan directly ignored Zhou Peiquan's warm gaze, which was equivalent to preventing Zhou Peiquan's next praise for him, he didn't want to hear too much about what had a father and a son......

"It's done! It's done!"

Sima Yichen ran out of another barracks excitedly with a pair of dark eyes, holding an armor-like thing in his hand.

"What came out?"

When Xue Xuan saw his expression, he knew that he had stayed up all night, but he didn't know what this scholar could toss.

"My homemade armor is light and safe, and can withstand several corpse attacks!"

Seeing Sima Yichen's excited expression, Xue Xuan still had a cold face, stretched out a finger, and gently poked the so-called armor on his hand, tearing a hole in an instant.

"Manufacturing, not just imagination!

Your defense is not as good as ordinary armor, but it is lighter, so keep improving. ”

Xue Xuan was telling the truth, he didn't have much strength with his fingers, using such armor to defend against walking corpses?

Looking for death......

"I see. ”

Sima Yichen was not a person who was easily attacked, so he turned around and ran back to the barracks to continue his research, as can be seen from the fact that after being stabbed by Xue Xuan yesterday, he can still maintain such enthusiasm to find a way to defend against the walking corpse.

After that, he was a little smacked by the execution of the people in Zhenyuan City, and in just one morning, he loaded the things he needed onto the cart or carriage, without quarrels and noise, and did not ask where to go, this kind of execution is amazing.

Yes, the carriage, there are still a few surviving horses in Zhenyuan City, and these horses have become important coolies for pulling goods.

Of course, Xue Xuan didn't stand by coldly, he had left all the food in the two storage rings at home before he came, and now there was just room to place the grain in Zhenyuan City, saving a bunch of manpower to transport the grain.

In this way, with 500 soldiers and 400 people, the migration began.

Along the way, he occasionally encountered three or two wandering walking corpses, and he was directly killed by those soldiers without Xue Xuan's action, without causing any casualties.

Because they were all mortals, they were very slow to hurry, and the group walked for an afternoon and a night, and did not arrive at Xuejia Village until the early morning of the next day.

All the people began to look for a place to live on their own, and when there were not enough houses to live in, they used their own tools to cut down and build wood, and everything was in such order.

The army also began to look for a place to station, and Xue Xuan returned home to explain to his father, and he also expressed great support for Xue Xuan's decision.

When Xue Li came down the mountain, most of the people and soldiers recognized him, and then the meeting began.

As for Xue Li's whereabouts, basically no one in Zhenyuan City knew about it, so Zhou Peiquan would be so surprised when he heard that Xue Xuan's father was Xue Li.

"When you were a centurion, how did you become the lord of the city?"

Xue Li has the same version of the smile on his face as Xue Xuan, no, it should be said that Xue Xuan's smile is the same version as Xue Li.

However, there is still a slight difference between the smiles of the two people, Xue Li's smile is a warm spring breeze, and Xue Xuan's smile is sunny.

"I don't know if the old city lord is here, otherwise this city lord will definitely let you be the one!"

Zhou Peiquan was already a big soldier, and he was not very familiar with management, and even had the idea of stepping down to Xue Li as the city lord.

"Don't think about it, I finally resigned, I'm only responsible for farming!

Xue Li was so smart that he directly extinguished the little thought in Zhou Peiquan's heart.

......

After a few days, Xue Xuan was relaxed, and Zhou Peiquan had been working diligently, building houses and some simple defense facilities.

And because of the abundant manpower, Xue Li led the people of Zhenyuan City to expand the scale of cultivated land, and it was not limited to terraced fields.

Of course, those soldiers were not idle, there was no war, they were now ordinary people, and they would also follow to build houses or farm, and only 100 of the 500 men were left to patrol and defend in various places.

In the past few days, Zhou Peiquan has also sent two teams of death squads to the surrounding small villages or small towns far or near, looking for surviving humans and residual food, but the harvest is quite small.

Xue Xuan rarely has free time, teaching Xiao Shi Tong to box, practice Yue Yuan Sutra, dance spear and hot snow, anyway, it is very easy.

And Yiming has been closed, and he hasn't been out of the house since he came back last time.

......

Yuezhu Mountain.

Yuezhu Mountain is not a mountain, Yuezhu Mountain is a pavilion, there are nine floors in total, this small building of Yuezhu Mountain is located in the continuous mountains of Huangzhou, no one can find this place, and no one can find the people who live here.

No one has set foot here since the old man parted twenty years ago.

And today, an uninvited guest quietly came to the ninth floor and sat opposite the old man of the star machine.

"The legendary star machine, that's what it looks like?"

A voice like iron grinding sounded, sounding dry and hoarse, and finally the word appearance became sharp and harsh.

"I'm just like this, the world has never praised me for how I look, and I have never been presumptuous, but you ......"

The old man of the star machine closed his eyes, his tone did not have the slightest mood fluctuation, and his two hands gently stroked an extremely large star map, and that extremely ordinary face showed a mysterious smile.

"What's wrong with me?"

The owner of the voice was dressed in a black robe, which was covered from top to bottom, and his face could not be seen clearly.

"You should be a faceless, faceless person, and qualified to judge the appearance of others?"

The old man didn't open his eyes at all, but the black-robed man directly threw the star map in front of him away, and it seemed that he was really right.

"Not only do you have no face, you don't have a heart, no stomach, no liver, no kidneys, am I right?"

The old man didn't pretend to caress his beard deeply, because he didn't have a beard, he just kept smiling faintly, still with his eyes closed.

"Yes, of course, absolutely!

It's not a loss to be the first person to count stars, and it's much smarter than the pavilion master of the Star Pavilion, which also proves that I didn't find the wrong person. ”

The black-robed man clenched his fists, not only did he not show his face, but even his hands and feet were shrouded in the black robe, which looked extremely weird.

"That kid has a good talent, but his heart is too poor, and it is not surprising that he can't avoid the thunder robbery. ”

His mood still didn't fluctuate, but his smile was hidden.

"The world only knows the Star Pavilion, but how can the world know about your star machine? It is also a nine-story building, but your cultivation is dozens of stories higher than his! Why have you been living in seclusion here?"

"That's what you're asking?"

The old man smiled, everyone who found him, he could answer a question for him, no matter ancient or modern, no matter heaven and earth, there was nothing he couldn't answer.
