Chapter Twenty-Eight: This Fire Will Be Burning Now
The night is like water, deep and quiet.
Occasionally, a bird crossed the night sky, and the distant birdsong seemed unusually bleak in today's night.
Outside the White Elephant City.
In a low hill, Chu Yun and Wang Zhan stood quietly.
The moonlight fell softly on their bodies, like dead clansmen, caressing their slightly trembling bodies.
In front of him were many bulging dirt bags, each with a wooden plaque inserted in front of it, on which some handwriting was crookedly engraved.
Wang Zhan sighed and said softly: "There are too many dead people, and thanks to the help of the Yang family, it can only be like this, these inscriptions are engraved by me piece by piece, but they are a little ugly......"
"That's good!" Chu Yun's face was dark, "At least I have a place to worship!"
Then he knelt on the ground with a "bump", kept kowtowing to the dirt bag in front of him, and when he raised his head again, tears were already raining down.
"Dad, mother, uncles, and big brothers and sisters, thank you for your love, thank you for taking care of me, let me realize that having relatives is so warm, you are good to go, I will send some people down to you soon!"
"In this life, because of you, I live very happily, and I have also made a lot of trouble for you, so you have to worry about it, now, you can rest well, and next, I will live by myself, live well!"
"Between this heaven and earth, only the strong are not afraid, only the strong are immortal, then the child will become the strong, become the strongest person in this heaven and earth, such a thing as today, after the child, it will never happen again!"
"People of the Chu family, the spirit of the nine heavens, help me move forward!"
"Bang!" Chu Yun slammed his head on the ground one last time, smelling the fresh earthy scent, his silver teeth clenched together, tears dripped down his cheeks and fell to the ground, his face was a little hideous.
In the dark, he seemed to feel a trace of warm and soft power, gently caressing his cheeks, just like when he was young, the gentleness of his mother's hands could smooth out all the grievances, make everything peaceful, and let Chu Yun's hideous complexion gradually ease.
"My son...... You're finally back, my mother misses you so much, don't be too sad, live well......"
"Brother Chu, come on, Lou'er raised his hands to support you!"
"Alas, I think I'm chic and bohemian in my life, but in the end, I want my brother to go alone, it's really embarrassing!"
"Brother Chu, Xiao Zhao likes you the most, big brother, they all bully me, only you love me the most, hehe......"
"Yun'er, don't worry too much, go to the eagle to strike the sky, go to the dragon and the sea, don't embarrass Lao Tzu!"
Familiar voices sounded in his ears, and Chu Yun even saw their faces clearly, but he knew that these were all illusions, and they were the voices in his heart.
But this voice made his gaze become more and more determined, and one after another amazing divine light, as if it was about to bloom out of his eyes, which was breathtaking.
Slowly stood up, turned his eyes to look at Wang Zhan, who was already crying silently, and said, "The more than 100 taels of gold, is it enough to go to your relatives' house in the countryside?"
"Enough, enough, it's just two of us, and it won't cost much, there will be a lot left!"
Wang Zhan wiped a handful of tears and nodded again and again.
"Alright, you can go now!"
"Okay, let's go!"
Wang Zhan took one last look at the mound in front of him, gritted his teeth, and walked towards the bottom of the mountain.
"Chu ...... Young Master Chu?" Wang Zhan had a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Chu Yun exhaled lightly and said in a low voice: "Let's say goodbye here, you can leave quickly!"
"I ...... Aren't you leaving? Why? Didn't you say that you would go together? The Wu family won't let you go!" Wang Zhan became a little anxious.
"The Wu family will naturally not let me go, but when did I say that I would let the Wu family go!"
A trace of horror appeared on Wang Zhan's face, "You...... Let's go, I know you have hatred in your heart, but the Wu family is not something we can deal with, stay in the green mountains, and there will be no firewood if you don't shoot!"
Chu Yun smiled, and said in a cold voice: "This fire...... I'm going to burn it now!"
Wang Zhan's eyes flickered, and then his face became dark, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, then we will stay and work with the Wu family!"
"If you stay, I'll kill you now!" Chu Yun's eyes were cold.
"You...... Young Master Chu!"
Wang Zhan roared, took a step forward suddenly, tears welled up in his eyes, he knew that Chu Yun would not be able to kill him, but he didn't want to be involved!
Chu Yun lowered his eyes slightly, Wang Zhan didn't know any martial arts, and he couldn't protect him at all times, if something happened to him, he would probably be killed, and the road he was about to take was full of dangers, every step was terrifying, life and death were only in a thought, with his current ability, he couldn't protect himself, how could he take Wang Zhan with him.
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Chu Yun pulled out the purple knife behind his back with a "bang", and said coldly: "Okay, since you have to die sooner or later, then I will kill you now, and it is better to die in my hands than if you were hacked to death with a knife!"
"Brother Chu, why do you want to be like this?" Wang Zhan roared with a distorted face.
"What so much nonsense, don't get out of here!" Chu Yun held a long knife and approached step by step.
Wang Zhan's chest rose and fell violently, his expression was extremely painful, he knew in his heart that he didn't know martial arts, and if he followed Chu Yun's words, it would probably drag him down, and after hesitating for a long time, he suddenly let out a long howl.
"Brother Chu, take care of yourself!"
Then he turned around suddenly, tears burst out instantly, and he ran all the way down the mountain, fell down several times on the way, got up again, wiped a handful of tears, and continued to run.
"Treasure it!"
Chu Yun looked at Wang Zhan's figure with his teeth and claws, and sighed leisurely.
Immediately, his face became gloomy again, he looked in the direction of White Elephant City, and muttered, "Wu family, your nightmare is about to begin!"
......
On a mountain road.
The moonlight was as deep as water, Chu Yun walked alone on the road, sometimes stepping on a dead branch under his feet, and the sharp crisp sound looked a little weird in the silent night.
The direction in which he was heading was the cliff where he found the white jade coffin.
He had to solve the problem of heat poison in his body first, otherwise, when he was fighting with the Chu family, the heat poison suddenly attacked, wouldn't it be slaughtered by others.
"Passing through this forest, it should be fast!" Chu Yun muttered to himself.
Suddenly......
The corners of Chu Yun's eyebrows raised, and he suddenly felt a sharp cold light, locking him from the darkness on his right, accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking the air, shooting towards him.
The target was his neck.
"It's really fast!"
Chu Yun snorted coldly, and the wind under his feet was exerted, and his body leaped deftly forward, easily avoiding the cold light that shot from this jet.
I saw that cold light, drawing a cold light in the dark night, shot three feet away from Chu Yun, and pierced into the trunk of a big tree next to it with a pop.
It was a feathered arrow, the body of which pierced a third of the trunk of a tree, and the tail of the arrow continued to tremble and buzz.
"Tsk, as Que Er said, you have made great progress, you have avoided it, it's a pity, you can't survive tonight!"
A slightly hoarse dark laugh came from the darkness on the right, and then, a group of more than a dozen people slowly walked out of the darkness with fierce eyes.
One of them, a tall young man, was holding a large black bow and carrying a quiver on his back, and it was this person who shot the feathered arrows before.
However, Chu Yun's gaze fell on one of the purple-robed figures, a sneer hooked up at the corner of his mouth, and he said in a deep voice:
"Elder Li, you dog who betrayed your master, the master didn't look for you, but you came to find death by wagging your tail!"
