For more than two days, the heavy rain stopped, and it was rare to feel a little dampness in the North Wilderness when the rain was clear.

A breath of turbid breath exhaled, and the blood qi around Lu Chen's body gradually stopped, returning to calm, and then woke up from his cultivation. He opened his eyes and looked at the smiling Xia thief in front of him, and could only shake his head helplessly.

After cultivating for less than two hours, Xia Xiaothief, who was active by nature, couldn't hold back his loneliness and wanted to find him to go out for a walk. This demon city oasis should be walked everywhere, but the little thief Xia has never lost his interest, is it more interesting than cultivation, or playing in the mountains and rivers, even if he has seen a lot, almost tired, it is better than the boring and boring of cultivation.

As a last resort, Lu Chen could only go out with Xia Xiaothief.

After walking for a long time, I have seen the mountains and rivers, and the breeze is more gentle than in the past. There is no wind and sand outside the oasis, but the sun is still the same, and it may not be long before this muddy land will return to its original dry appearance.

However, when you travel in the mountains and rivers, you will not see this vast and desolate, and you have to climb high in the oasis and look into the distance.

Walking on the top of the mountain, looking at the four directions, the mountains are breezy and rare to be quiet.

"You always like to pinch those little time to cultivate, don't you feel bored?"

Xia Xiaothief turned his head to look, his face full of curiosity.

"Most of the monks I've seen are just like you, and they don't feel bored when they practice every day, I really don't understand that the so-called asking for immortals is really more tempting than this rolling red dust? ”

"I didn't ask for immortals. ”

Lu Chen shook his head slightly, then paused for a moment, and nodded with a wry smile.

It was also for the sake of asking for immortals. ”

"That's a bit of a contradiction. ”

Xia Xiaothief pouted, unable to understand.

However, his nature is like this, no one can force it, Xia Xiaothief is a restless master by nature, and letting him practice honestly should be more painful than peeling his skin. Relatively speaking, Lu Chen was able to calm down, or he had experienced the past, and the two were opposite in this regard.

"Everyone has a different reason for cultivating, but the essence is the same, and they are all constantly moving forward on the path of cultivation. It's just that some people want to pursue immortality, some people want to strengthen themselves, some people want to be at ease, and I want to be able to live, but I don't want to leave many regrets due to lack of strength. When I looked back when I died, I realized that I still had so many things that I hadn't done, and even if I went to the netherworld, I probably wouldn't be reconciled. ”

Hearing this, Xia Xiaothief still pouted.

"You have something to do, and it's so serious, if you don't do it, you won't be willing to go to the netherworld. ”

"Revenge. ”

His voice was calm, and his eyes were unwavering, as if he were just ordinary.

Xia Xiaothief was stunned, turned his head to look at Lu Chen, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

"Chen Daocai and Ling Caiwei of Liangyimen slaughtered more than 100 people in my village. As far as I'm concerned, even if I die, I have to bite off their flesh. On the other hand, there is also an elder of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, because of my fault, a friend was implicated in the death of me, and this revenge will also be avenged. But really, I can't die yet..."

There was a light in Lu Chen's eyes, and he stopped and looked at Xia Xiaothief.

"If I die, Twin Shadows will be alone, not to mention that I promised a friend a long time ago that I could not be sent to death. ”

"You guy..."

Xia Xiaothief opened his mouth and laughed out loud.

"I have seen many people like you who are not afraid of death and cannot die, and this is the first one. ”

"I don't know if it's the first one, but each family has its own pain and pain, don't you?"

Lu Chen meant something, but he was always calm.

He still remembered what Uncle Bai had entrusted him, and he had to find out if Xia Xiaothief knew about the changes in the Wu'an Mansion of the Dahua Dynasty. However, at this time, Lu Chen was a little disappointed, it was Xia Xiaothief's eyes that were still clear, and he only made a bitter appearance, and his whole face collapsed.

"Pain and pain are naturally there, my father who killed a thousand knives had to kick me out of the house, and directly threw me into the barren mountains and forests of Dongsheng, saying that it was for me to sharpen my temperament, and nothing was left, not even a master of self-protection. You don't know what kind of life I will live during the time when I will come out, the sky will be the quilt, the ground will be the bed, the thirsty will drink the dew, and the hungry will gnaw the bark, and it will only be better in the last two years. I felt ashamed to say those things, so I will tell you that when I go back to see my friends in the future, don't tell them how embarrassed I am. ”

As he spoke, Xia Xiaothief began to sigh again, constantly accusing the father who "killed a thousand knives" in his mouth.

"You said you were running away from home. ”

Lu Chen replied casually, but gradually became distracted.

Obviously, he didn't know that the Wu'an Prince's Mansion was gone.

Lu Chen's heart was also very complicated, and he didn't know how to tell him these things. After all, more than 1,000 people in the family were killed, chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs were not left, and the palace of the prince of Wu'an was burned, and the ashes were thrown into the river and sea, and the fish and shrimp were fed.

The Dahua Emperor is so vicious, as far as Xia Xiaothief is concerned, this feud should also be incompatible.

It's right to just want to come, after all, Xia Xiaothief left the Dahua Dynasty with nothing, and it is also because the prince of Wu'an is afraid of revealing his horse's feet, so he will be ruthless, otherwise he should at least bring a protective master, just like Uncle Bai next to Tiger Hunting, even if he has experienced, someone must secretly shelter him, otherwise he is accidentally in danger, and who can rescue him? However, because of this, Xia Xiaothief has no source of news, if he wants to know, he can only do it by hearsay.

"Hey, whose beautiful girl do you want?"

Xia Xiaothief patted Lu Chen on the shoulder and screamed again, and Lu Chen, who was stunned, woke up.

"Nope..."

He only shook his head slightly, laughed dryly, and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

However, the little thief suddenly showed an ambiguous smile, and pulled a long speech meaningfully.

"I miss your two-shadow girl, right! Hey, we men don't need to be so mother-in-law, you just have to say it. After a while, when the Tiger Hunt Prince and Luo Shen'er come back, the matter here will be solved for the time being, and when you have time, you can go back to Dongsheng directly to see and come back. Although it's a little far away, it doesn't matter, that Tiger Hunt Prince is a powerful guy, just ask him for a spirit spirit or something, it's definitely enough for you to run a few back and forth. ”

"It's... Quite right. ”

Lu Chen could only nod his head, which could be regarded as a response.

After walking for a while, going up to the top of the mountain, watching for a long time, and chatting a lot, Lu Chen gradually returned to his normal state, and was no longer as distracted as before. Xia Xiaothief didn't seem to pay attention to anything else, and talked about the anecdotes he had seen in Zhongzhou with great interest, and Lu Chen was like a listener as in the past, occasionally responding. At the end, he mentioned that Xia Xiaothief really thought he was a little prince, and it was already close to evening when he laughed, and he went back to the village.

Late at night, the moon sinks like water, and the stars fill the sky.

Xia Xiaothief did not chatter as before, and lay down on the bed early to rest, saying that there was no fun to be found, so he could only meet Hongchen in a dream, and then left Lu Chen to sleep alone.

Hearing that his breathing gradually stabilized, Lu Chen also recovered from his cultivation and got up to the door.

In the dark shadow under the moon, Uncle Bai quietly appeared and came to Lu Chen.

"He probably really didn't know about the incident in the Wu'an Palace. ”

Lu Chen sighed, his heart was complicated and indescribable.

"I saw it. ”

Uncle Bai nodded slightly, and smiled bitterly.

"The prince of Wu'an must have seen that something was going to happen, so he left the Dahua Dynasty far away, and even threw it directly to Dongsheng. Everything after that can be guessed, the prince of Wu'an found a puppet stand-in, waited for him to die, and publicized his death, which was regarded as preserving his bloodline, and in order to avoid the suspicion of the Dahua Emperor, pretending not to know everything, it was equivalent to burying himself in the abyss of death with his own hands. ”

His chest heaved deeply, and his eyes were full of bitterness.

The prince of Wu'an of the Dahua Dynasty, the hero of the pacification of the rebellion, is no worse than the expansion of the territory and even the establishment of the country, and it is a great contribution to the stability of the Dahua Dynasty. It is precisely because of this that Uncle Bai has been friends with him for a long time, but he never thought that the dignified Prince Wu'an, a general who made hundreds of schools in Dahua surrender to the rebellion, would end up like this.

I spit out a mouthful of boredom, but I still feel bored.

He didn't know that, but he had to know. ”

Lu Chen also closed his eyes, his heart was complicated and uncomfortable.

"Prince Wu'an let Xia Xiaothief train outside for five years, and now it's only one year. At most, he will know these things after all, and he can't hide it, so it is better to let him know it as soon as possible, so as not to be reckless a year later, go back to the Dahua Dynasty, expose himself, and cause death. But I'm having a hard time telling him..."

"Anyone can make a mistake. ”

Uncle Bai nodded slightly, and pondered.

The two stopped talking, but they were thinking about the same thing.

After a long time, Lu Chen shook his head with a wry smile and broke the silence.

"Xia Xiaothief said that his father was a 'killer of a thousand knives', but it was just lip service, and he must still be close in his heart. However, now the prince of Wu'an has fallen to death, and more than 1,000 people in the entire Wu'an prince's mansion have been slaughtered, not even the bones have been left, and the ashes have also been fed to fish and shrimp. The Great Bloom Emperor is so cruel, how can he..."

Boom ——!

The gas engine stirred, the waves suddenly appeared, and the violent cyclone collapsed half of the village, and the sky was full of smoke and dust!

Lu Chen swallowed back before he finished speaking, and Uncle Bai was also stunned in his eyes.

When the two of them turned their heads, they saw that Xia Xiaothief woke up at some point, because the two of them were too distracted to pay attention before. And between the agitation of the qi machine, Xia Xiaothief's face was cold, hunting in red, his eyes were full of ferocity and hideousness, and the disordered Dao marks continued to grow and destroy around his body, cutting the earth out of the hideous ravines.

As soon as he fell, the ground shook, and the cobweb-like cracks spread out abruptly.

Lu Chen and Uncle Bai couldn't help but suffocate, it wasn't that Xia Xiaothief was too aggressive, but that his terrifying eyes made people chill.

However, he did not say a word, but walked slowly, and when he came closer, there was no trace left under his feet. The stirring qi gradually returned to normal, and the boiling Dao marks also became tranquil and all dissipated. However, his body was trembling, especially his red eyes, which were full of water.

The moon is soft and beautiful, reflecting two lines of tears.

He stared at Lu Chen, looked at it for a long time, and gradually calmed down, swept his red sleeves to wipe the water stains on his face, but his mouth was difficult and hoarse and low.

"That's... The one who killed a thousand knives... How long have you been dead..."
