A meandering river divides the capital in half.

The river leads to the moat outside the city, the water is crystal clear, during the day, people often come to the river to enjoy the scenery, and there are even poets who have no ambition to come here to sing their own poems with the river.

Since it is not a coastal city, it is also a comfort to express your feelings here.

There is a long stone chair at intervals by the river, which is a resting place for the viewers, and it is already night, so naturally few people sit here so sour and melancholy.

However, by the river, not far from the Kuanyi Pavilion, a woman in a blue dress was in a daze at the flowing river, not admiring the long-lost scenery, but waiting for someone, someone she had wanted to stab to death with a sword.

The evening breeze is not too big, blowing up the woman's clothes, it seems just right, the blue silk clothes dance with the wind, taking advantage of the moonlight, taking advantage of the brilliant lights not far away, there is a feeling of dusting.

At this moment, Hua Suiye took Xu Chen and walked out slowly from an intersection, they didn't talk, but walked straight to the woman who was dusting.

Maybe she heard the footsteps, or maybe she felt that the time was almost up, the woman in blue turned around slowly, and looked at Xu Chen who was walking slowly.

"Cold snow?"

Xu Chen called out that name in his heart, I don't know why, he should be alert when he saw the people of the Dushan Sect at this time, but he didn't have a trace of instinctive reaction, so he followed Hua Suiye and walked over in the cold snow's gaze.

It's normal to go out for a walk in such weather, but it's a bit strange for cold snow, especially at night.

With doubts in his head, Xu Chen came to Leng Xue, glanced at him awkwardly, but did not speak.

Maybe it was because he felt that he was a little old and shouldn't listen to the children's conversation, or maybe it was to avoid suspicion, so Hua Suiye didn't stop and walked not far away, and also looked at the night view of the capital.

"Liu Xia is dead?"

Leng Xue suddenly spoke, but her expression was indifferent for thousands of years, as if she was talking to a stranger.

"Dead!"

Xu Chen replied calmly, as if he didn't want to hide anything.

But obviously, Leng Xue's question was not important, it was more like a foreshadowing, her red lips trembled slightly, and she said softly: "You don't want to ask me why I came to you?"

This sentence is very cliché, but for Xu Chen, it is a little emotional, what can the goddess recognized by the Dushan Sect in front of him do to find herself?

"I suppose you're going to say it yourself, right? In this situation, you're not here to arrest me, you're trying to see if I'm dead, right?"

Xu Chen's cheeks stiffened, of course he knew that Leng Xue was not here to arrest him, otherwise Hua Suiye would not have brought him here, and Leng Xue would not have bothered to speak so much. There is only one reason why he said this, and that is that he doesn't know what to say.

"Huh!"

Leng Xue smiled coldly, just like her cold name, the voice was cold like flowing river water, soft but tasteless.

"I thought about it for a long time, and finally I felt like I should tell you something. ”

After speaking, Leng Xue seemed to be waiting for Xu Chen to answer, such as saying something like "what's the matter" in a slightly surprised way.

However, Xu Chen seemed to be as indifferent as her.

The cool riverside was silent for a long time, looking at each other, and the two didn't say a word for a long time.

I don't know how many moments passed, Leng Xue shook her head slightly, "To be honest, I wanted to kill you before, no, not thinking, but should." ”

Xu Chen nodded slightly, indicating that he knew.

"Don't you want to know why?"

Leng Xue was very surprised by Xu Chen's silence, as silent as a wooden man.

"It doesn't matter, the important thing is that you didn't kill me. ”

Immediately, Xu Chen actually smiled slightly, like a broken knight who was used to licking blood on the tip of a knife, "There are many people who want to kill me, but they don't necessarily have a reason." ”

Hearing Xu Chen's answer, Leng Xue was a little helpless, the kind of helplessness that she clearly wanted to tell people something, but it seemed that people were not interested.

She didn't say this nonsense, but said directly: "I am the granddaughter of Bai Qitian." ”

Leng Xue thought that when he said this, Xu Chen would be shocked, and even glared at him angrily, but he didn't expect that Xu Chen just nodded slightly, and still didn't speak.

"You know?"

Leng Xue looked at Xu Chen in surprise, as if she was looking at a monster.

"Of course, I knew it from the time you asked me if I knew something called Oni Five. ”

Xu Chen explained calmly, "It's just, what do you want to explain?"

What does it mean?

Leng Xue's thinking suddenly began to mess up, and she seemed to be a little unable to understand the young man in front of her.

On the second day after Xu Chen came to the Dushan Sect, Leng Xue knew Xu Chen's identity, which was what Ghost Wu told her about finding her late at night, and she naturally knew about Xu Chen's ten years of being trapped in the Bai family, and also knew about the Bai family's pursuit and killing of him later.

According to common sense, Bai Qiantian is Xu Chen's enemy, and Leng Xue is the granddaughter of his enemy, why is he so calm?

"Don't you want to kill me?"

Leng Xue looked at Xu Chen incomprehensibly, as if she could see a flower.

Xu Chen smiled slightly, pulled the placket and said: "Why did you kill you, it was your grandfather who locked me up, not you, besides, I now know that it wasn't your grandfather who killed my mother, just from the fact that he locked me up for ten years, he shouldn't die." ”

The cheeks of all men in sackcloth were fascinated by all men, but at this time they trembled slightly, to be honest, she had no ill will towards Xu Chen, the reason why she wanted to kill Xu Chen in the first place was all family affairs, perhaps mixed with the emotion of revenge for the ghost five.

However, it is obvious that the death of Ghost Five cannot be blamed on Xu Chen, after all, it was the Bai family who first provoked the incident.

What's more, Leng Xue was left in the Dushan Sect at the age of six, not only did she have no impression of her mother, but she even forgot what they looked like a little bit about her father and grandfather.

Don't talk that blood is thicker than water, as long as you are in a different place, any emotion will fade, maybe you still think that you love them, it is just your illusion, or you love those people in your imagination or memory.

Perhaps seeing Leng Xue's helplessness and some imperceptible sadness, Xu Chen asked softly, "You came to me today to tell me these things?"

Leng Xue nodded, and shook her head again, "There is one more thing, that is, you'd better not leave the capital and stay in the National Teacher's Mansion, otherwise, you will be in danger." ”

"Why?"

This was the first time Xu Chen asked the other party a question, although he knew that he was in danger at this time, but if Leng Xue could say such a thing, naturally there should be something new wrong.

The night breeze blew and ruffled Leng Xue's hair, and a strand of hair on her sideburns hung gently on her fair Lianjia, hanging down from the corners of her mouth.

She gently brushed the strand of hair to the side, and said softly: "Because, the Dushan Sect has been looking for you everywhere, and I heard from Senior Hua about you, so I think, I think you don't deserve to die." ”

"Humph!"

Xu Chen was quite helpless, and snorted self-deprecatingly, "I know this." ”

What he said about knowing, naturally, refers to the matter of looking for him everywhere in the Dushan Sect, of course, including the sentence that Leng Xue said that he shouldn't die.

I saw Leng Xue shaking her head slightly, "You don't know, this is the news that was only sent out tonight today, and even the seniors of the flower don't know, the Gathering Spirit Courtyard is going to send a few people to Yong'an Town to your house." I think you know what that's trying to do?"

"Huh?"

Xu Chen looked at Leng Xue in surprise, no longer looking so calm.

But Leng Xue didn't finish speaking, "This is an order personally given by the head of Xuanwei, and it was also conveyed by Xiao Leng, listening to his tone, it should be said that the people of the Gathering Spirit Courtyard should go to the Gathering Spirit Academy by themselves, and this time he will personally lead the team." ”

After a slight pause, she said with a rather complicated expression: "Among them, there is also me." ”

After listening, Xu Chen's eyes closed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

The Xu family, the place where he was born, although he has not been away from there for a long time, but at this time, I don't know why, it is so strange.

The people of the Dushan Sect want to go to the Xu family, which means that the monks can't run away from the temple, and more importantly, they want to threaten themselves with their families.

Thinking of this, Xu Chen showed a wry smile, is there anyone else worth saving there?

At this time, I saw him slowly open his eyes and look at his left hand, which was almost all the memories left to him by the Xu family.

Suddenly, a person's cheeks appeared in front of Xu Chen's eyes, Xu Zijie.

Even though the younger brother and the so-called Erniang treated him badly, the "father" who had raised him for so many years should not be affected by himself.

Thinking about his father's cultivation at this time, Xu Chen's face was distorted.

In the third realm, this can naturally go sideways in Yong'an Town, but the disciples of the Dushan Sect are by no means ordinary people, even if they are from the Gathering Spirit Courtyard, they are not easy to mess with.

Coupled with Xiao Leng's unfathomable guy, I think that the "father" is more than lucky.

However, Leng Xue on the other side was still looking at him, and his beautiful face had changed from indifference at the beginning to quite peaceful at this time.

"Thank you!"

Xu Chen said in a deep voice, "This time, you can go home by the way." ”

"Home?"

Leng Xue's expression was extremely complicated, "That home, I don't know if it's still not mine now, I don't know if they can recognize me." ”

If it was normal, Leng Xue would never say such a thing to anyone, and at this time she felt the biggest pain in her heart, but at this moment, she actually exposed her helplessness to another person's eyes.

"Don't recognize?"

Xu Chen asked rhetorically, "Even if they recognize you, but you still know them, at least they are better than me, I don't even know who my biological father is." ”

He did not mourn, for he was used to it.

After speaking, Xu Chen smiled and said, "If it's okay, then I'll go, help me say goodbye to Senior Hua, I think I should still be in a bit of a hurry." ”

There should be a bit of a hurry.

At this time, what an unreliable person would say, but this came from Xu Chen's mouth, so it was naturally not so ridiculous.

Because, Yong'an Town is located in the southwest of the empire, and the northwest camp of Wuxian Town is located in the west of the empire, but there is a distance between the two, but it is not too far, so he has to return to the National Teacher's Mansion to consider this matter carefully.
