Chapter 5 Uprooted

“...... Listen to me, my son is not awake now, everything is because of the inexplicable broken knife, I think it is a young and ignorant thing, unintentionally obtained, because of the bewitchment. But I won't know until my son wakes up. You go back for the time being, in the future, I, Lu Yanming, will definitely give you an explanation!"

When Lu Chen woke up, he heard his father's voice outside.

There are also many people who denounce and curse.

He shook his head, which was still a little chaotic, felt a tingling pain, and subconsciously covered his forehead. In a trance, he seemed to see himself holding a broken knife, slashing everyone in Qingshui Village, blood light and stumps and broken arms dancing wildly, and the terrible howl echoed, lingering like a magic sound.

A hoarse roar came out of Lu Chen's mouth, alarming everyone outside the door.

With a bang, the wooden door was pushed open, Gong Zhen and Lu Yanming rushed in first, and many people who didn't know each other followed.

The people I know are all neighbors in the village, and they are okay, but they are a little complicated. But those people who don't know each other must be from Qingshui Village, or other villages, all of them are fierce and vicious, their faces are full of anger, and they keep saying that Lu Chen is a murderer and a devil, and they want to seek justice from him.

Lu Chen was a little in a trance and a little frightened, still not knowing what he had done.

"Shut up!"

Lu Yanming suddenly shouted angrily and turned his gaze. He walked in front of Lu Chen in a few steps, reached out and snatched the broken knife from his hand, and then threw it aside.

Lu Chen was stunned, not understanding what was going on.

"Chen'er, tell me honestly, what the hell is going on with this knife?!Where did you get it?!"

Lu Yanming no longer has the boldness and spoiling of the past. His face was full of anger and gloom, and his voice was hoarse from overexertion.

Lu Chen opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer for a while.

This broken knife came with him from the abyss...

But he never told anyone.

When someone brought him back from the Demon Abyss, Gong Zhen and Lu Yanming had already asked. But at that time, Lu Chen's heart was palpitating, and he could only vaguely say a few words, and the two did not force him to ask. Later, he became more and more sober, and there was nothing unusual, and no one doubted it. And Lu Chen gradually understood that what he got was a precious treasure, and he couldn't bear to give it up, and because the magic abyss was taboo, he couldn't talk nonsense, and every time someone asked, he would deal with a few words casually. And this broken knife has not been seen for a long time after that, just like an ordinary thing.

After a long time, even Lu Yanming and Gong Zhen never asked about the origin of this broken knife. But I don't want to have these troubles because of this knife.

"I... I..."

The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and his face showed a struggle.

"Dust!"

Lu Yan suddenly screamed, reached out and grabbed Lu Chen's collar, and directly lifted him up.

Lu Chen was afraid in his heart, he clearly saw that his father's angry face was swollen and red, and the green tendons on his forehead and neck had burst out, and his expression was hideous and terrifying.

"It's... It's me from... Brought out of the Demon Abyss..."

After speaking, Lu Chen pursed his lips and cried.

He was completely awake, and he finally saw the chaotic scene in his mind, and knew what he had done. The corpse, a terrible howl, lingering...

Lu Yanming's pupils contracted, his body trembled, and the people around him were stunned.

The Demon Abyss is a taboo and a demonic land.

"Ah——!h

After a brief silence, the screams of terror tore it apart, and a large group of people hurriedly exited the room and fled away from the vicinity of the Lu family's courtyard.

The broken knife was in the house, and it was thrown aside by Lu Yanming before. It lay there, breathless, calm, natural, as ordinary as a sword everywhere in the village. But it came from the Demon Abyss, and that alone was enough to terrify everyone.

Gong Zhen's face turned pale suddenly, she couldn't get up in one breath, and fell to the ground with a pop.

Seeing this, Lu Chen couldn't even care about crying, and hurriedly struggled out of Lu Yanming's hands to hold his mother in his arms to investigate the situation.

"Dust... Dust... You, how could you do such a thing..."

Lu Yanming closed his eyes, his face full of grief and struggle.

"I told you earlier that the abyss must not be approached, and the things in it are all demons and demons! Yes, when you first entered the mountain, I also said that there was no ditch near where you got lost, so how could you suddenly disappear. When I found you, you had the broken knife in your hand, but it was too far from where you had lost it. With your ability at the time, you shouldn't have been able to go that far... It's just that you didn't say anything when you woke up, and your mother and I didn't force you..."

He crouched down and clutched his head in pain, full of regret.

Lu Chen cried again, a handful of snot and tears, but he still insisted on his blood and qi to communicate with his aura and help his mother straighten out her suffocating breath.

"But... But why are you so disobedient!"

Lu Yanming howled, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and cried out.

Lu Chen sniffled twice, gritted his teeth, and used his aura to straighten out his choked breath for his mother.

Gong Zhen gradually regained consciousness and opened her eyes, still a little weak.

"You... Dust, you go... You hurry up..."

The first thing she did when she woke up, she grabbed Lu Chen's clothes and shook her head again and again.

"In this village, if you can't stay, the people of Qingshui Village will not spare you, and the people in other villages will definitely not let you go after hearing about it. You hurry up, today, leave now, I'll go and pack your things for you, don't stay here any longer!"

Gong Zhen struggled to get up, and Lu Chen couldn't stop him.

She hurriedly packed up all the clothes that Lu Chen wore on weekdays, wrapped them into packages, took some dried meat, and stuffed them all into Lu Chen's hands.

"Hurry up, no... No, you can't go through the front door, go out through the window, don't come back, everyone will treat you as a monster and kill you!

Lu Yanming also reacted and wiped a handful of tears, but he could still see his eyes red.

"You take this knife too, and you must not stay in the village and harm others again. But you must not continue to carry it in the future, and you can find a random ravine on the road and throw it away. As for later... Then find a city for yourselves to stay in, and if you settle down, give your mother and me a letter, and we will come to you in the future. ”

He picked up the broken knife and instructed cautiously.

But Lu Chen shook his head again and again, unwilling to leave no matter how his mother pushed him.

"They took me for a monster, but I'm gone, what are you going to do... They can't find me, they will..."

"We're fine, just go. If you don't leave, the people outside..."

Before Gong Zhen could finish speaking, the wooden door was pushed open again.

Man'er rushed in while crying, and Uncle Liu, who was still injured, also rushed in.

"Brother Lu Chen, they say that you are a devil and a demon, and they want to burn you, you should run quickly!"

She began to shout when she entered the door, and Uncle Liu was also full of anxiety.

A few people turned around, and after opening the door, they could also hear someone outside in the room denouncing, as if they had regarded Lu Chen as a devil and demon. Through the door, you can even see that someone has begun to set up a pyre, and someone is coming towards this side with a sword.

Gong Zhen and Lu Yanming panicked, and turned around to push Lu Chen out of the window.

"Dust, you go quickly, they won't do anything to us. If you don't leave, it'll be too late!"

"Brother Lu Chen, go quickly, the uncles and aunts in the village will really burn you!"

Man'er and Uncle Liu also began to push him, telling him to leave quickly through the window at the back of the house.

"Chen'er, you save your life first, Lao Lu and your mother will not have an accident, your Uncle Liu guarantees with his life, and no one will hurt them. You just hurry up, don't stay here, no matter how powerful you are, you are no match for so many people, they will burn you!

"I..."

Lu Chen's heart was for a while, gritted his teeth, and glanced at his mother and father, and then at Uncle Liu and Man'er. When he looked up again, the people outside the door had already rushed to the front, and they were about to enter the door to catch him and burn him to death.

"Let's go!"

Lu Yanming also saw it, his face changed immediately, and he and Uncle Liu threw Lu Chen directly out of the window. When someone rushed in from outside the door, the two of them made a gesture of reaching out to grab the air, pretending to be regretful and angry on their faces.

"Where is the devil?!"

Some people shouted and shouted, their swords swaying, and others rushed in with torches.

"Ran through the window, we didn't catch it, hurry up and chase it!

Uncle Liu gritted his teeth and scolded angrily, pulled Lu Yanming to rush out first, and led everyone in another direction. After the person was cleaned, Gong Zhen felt sad for a while, and cried out again, and Man'er also cried and comforted her on the side.

Outside the window, Lu Chen rolled around a few times after being thrown out, and his face was covered with tears and a lot of mud. He got up and looked back at the room, then gritted his teeth and turned away.

There were a lot of miscellaneous items in the village, Lu Chen hid himself in the corner of the village, and saw that Uncle Liu and his father had taken the group of people away, so he hurriedly ran out and ran towards the back of the village, and then climbed over the perimeter wall of the wooden stakes, entered the mountain forest, and went around to the main road from the inside.

Flee along the trail to the ridge, it was already dark.

Looking back, there was still a large area of fire in the village in the distance. It is the surrounding mountains and forests, and you can see the sparkling fires flickering in them, and there are people everywhere.

Lu Chen glanced at the broken knife in his hand and smashed it to the ground.

All of this is because of it!

Lu Chen wanted to throw it away directly, but he remembered his father's words, he had to take it to a place where no one was there and throw it away, so as not to continue to harm others. This road is a common route used by several villages in the mountains to enter and exit and sell fur goods, and if you lose it here, you may be picked up.

The corners of his mouth flickered, his heart was sad, and he wanted to cry.

But now there is no room for him to be hypocritical here.

Lu Chen wiped his eyes, picked up the broken knife, and looked back at the village that was already far away. The dotted torches were getting closer and closer, and some people had even seen Lu Chen on the ridge, and with a greeting, a large area of firelight lit up, and it was clearly not far from the mountainside.

Seeing this, Lu Chen was suddenly startled, and he couldn't care about losing the broken knife anymore, so he turned around and fled.

If he was caught, he would definitely be burned to death, and his father and mother would be very sad.

Lu Chen didn't want to do this, so he could only run desperately and escape desperately. Fortunately, the strength of the people in the village is not strong, and they are not comparable to Lu Chen in all aspects. When they caught up, Lu Chen had already disappeared on the other side of the mountain, completely gone.
