Chapter 84: Ye Fan and Ye Shiyun
The person who followed him was obviously a master of concealment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf it weren't for Haotian's strong perception, he might not have been able to find any trace of this person.
With his tracking skills, if he didn't have the intention to investigate, even a monk in the early stage of Gathering Spirits might not have felt it.
It is precisely because of this that the anger in Haotian's heart is also getting stronger and stronger, just such a small matter, Zhou Yichen actually sent someone to follow them, obviously to catch them all. From this, you can imagine how narrow and ruthless this person's heart is.
Escorted the girl and her young brother to the northern city of Xuanxing City.
What catches your eye is not the prosperity of the dazzling streets, but the devastation and disorderly houses. Compared to other places, it is a slum. Not even a slum, just a garbage dump.
Seeing such a scene, Haotian couldn't help but sigh. This desolation hidden behind the prosperity is a portrayal of the self-deception of those in power.
Despite this, Haotian saw a lot of warmth from this desolation.
A few ragged children were playing in the distance, and a few lonely old people were leaning in front of the door basking in the sun. Pedestrians who came and went in a hurry, although they were dressed plainly, had a faint smile on their faces.
Although these people are hard, those people outside who are dressed in splendid clothes and have fat brains are deceitful. They are truly alive and living for themselves.
When the people on the road saw the girls and teenagers who led them, they all smiled. But when he saw Haotian behind them, he was surprised.
I never thought that such a person would appear in the slums. And it seems that he is still a Danshi.
Everyone pointed at Haotian curiously, but no one dared to come forward to ask.
A few children in the distance boldly ran forward and looked at Haotian with curiosity.
As the girl and boy came to the innermost house, they saw the dilapidated house. The girl looked at Haotian behind her with some bumpiness.
"Big brother, come in. But the young man excitedly pulled Haotian into the house. The girl immediately followed.
When the three of them entered the room, the warrior who was following him in the distance turned to leave the slum, apparently informing his master.
"My lord, please drink water. The girl took a fairly complete water cup and handed it to Haotian.
Haotian smiled slightly, took the quilt in the girl's hand, and drank all the water in the cup.
The girl took a deep breath and was finally relieved.
Haotian looked around. The outside is dilapidated, but the inside is clean. They just didn't see their parents, "Where did your parents go?"
Haotian's inquiry made the girl bow her head sadly. He also faintly saw a crystal tear dripping down the girl's clenched right hand.
Apparently his question reminded the girl of some sad past.
"My father and mother were killed by bad guys. The boy walked out of the room and said with a look of resentment.
The girl looked up and recounted her experience.
It turned out that the girl was born in a big family, and her father was also an important minister of the Great Zhou Empire. It's a pity that he was framed by a traitor and ended up in prison.
And his mother returned to the imperial capital with her sister and brother, wanting to find someone to ask. But when their father was imprisoned, the people who had been in contact with them before seemed to have seen ghosts, desperately avoiding them.
In the end, his father was beheaded for public display. And the mother can only take them to the streets. Finally came to the slums here in Xuanxing City.
Fortunately, his father's subordinates remembered the old love and continued to help them, so they didn't starve to death.
But the good times didn't last long, and a few years later, because of her beauty, her mother was favored by an adult in Xuanxing City. I want to be taken as a concubine. The mother was desperate and finally beat to death with a stick.
Speaking of this, the girl's tears could no longer be held back, and the words kept falling.
Haotian was angry in his heart, and he felt a sense of sympathy.
The girl sobbed for a moment and continued. After the death of his mother, the adult turned his eyes to himself. Always send someone to harass me from time to time. He even said that in a few days, someone would be sent to give a dowry. This time, my brother was injured, and it may not be these people who did it.
The girl's face was helpless, but the boy's eyes flashed with anger.
Knowing what happened to the two, Haotian finally knew the cause and effect.
"Shiyun, are you saying that they will come back in a few days?" Haotian said lightly.
"Well, count the time, those bad guys are here today and tomorrow. Before the girl could speak, the boy had already taken the lead. The girl's name is Ye Shiyun, and the boy's name is Ye Fan.
"Please, sir, save us. Ye Shiyun knelt on the ground and looked at Haotian sincerely. The pleading in his tone could be heard by anyone.
Haotian sighed helplessly, he had enough things to do, but he didn't expect to be implicated in other things.
Haotian didn't know what to do for a while.
"Please, sir. You must help my sister. As long as you help my sister, I will repay you even if I am a cow and a horse. Ye Fan knelt down in front of Haotian.
Looking at the two people who fell to the ground, Haotian sighed slightly in his heart. Maybe it's because of the sympathy, but in the end I nodded and agreed.
Haotian kept comforting himself, anyway, he saved it once, and he didn't care about saving it again. What's more, Zhou Yichen's matter has not been resolved. After all, Zhou Yichen's matter also has something to do with him.
Ye Shiyun and Ye Fan immediately kowtowed with a thousand thanks.
Haotian shook his head and reached out to help the two of them up.
At this moment, there was a commotion in the direction of the gate.
"Sister of the Ye family. A middle-aged woman ran in. glanced at Haotian in surprise, then took Ye Shiyun's hand, and said anxiously, "Sister of the Ye family, run away, those people are here again." ”
Ye Shiyun looked frightened, and then looked at Haotian pleadingly.
Haotian nodded lightly, gave Shiyun a comforting look, and then sat down.
"Auntie, I know, go back quickly. If they see you and tell the news, they won't let you go. Shiyun said to the middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman wanted to say a few words of comfort, but the door was slammed open. More than a dozen big men walked in under the leadership of an obese young man in a brocade suit.
Haotian probed and found that these people were not masters. That young man was at most the appearance of the early stage of condensation, and the big man behind him was an ordinary acquired martial artist.
"Little lady of the Ye family, I'm here. I don't know if you've figured it out. The voice of the young man came.
Hearing this voice, the middle-aged woman and Shiyun immediately took a few steps back in horror. Instead, Xiao Yefan stepped forward and pulled the two of them down.
When he saw Ye Fan, a trace of strangeness flashed in the young man's eyes. Although others didn't notice it, Haotian saw it clearly.
"Who are you, why are you here?" the young man discovers Haotian's existence. Obviously, Haotian's appearance was not expected by him.
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that what you want to do today can't be done. Give you a chance to get out of here right away with your people. Haotian said coldly.
A powerful momentum emanated from Haotian's body. Haotian looked at the young man in front of him coldly, since he decided to save Ye Fan and Ye Shiyun, he couldn't let these people do anything to them. Just a monk in the early stage of condensation and a dozen martial artists in the acquired stage, he still doesn't care about it.
