Xu Zijie's face was embarrassed, he hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke: "Chen'er! I heard what you just said, my Xu family is sorry for you, you can record all the hatred on me alone! However, I only have Xu Yang as a son, you can let him go, okay?"

"A son?"

Xu Chen stared at his red eyes and looked at Xu Zijie directly, with mixed feelings in his heart, "You...... He even said...... So what am I?"

Maybe it was the extreme sadness, Xu Chen's cry was almost roaring, he didn't know why Xu Zijie was so ruthless, "Then what am I! I didn't do anything wrong, but you don't recognize me now?"

Xu Zijie's eyes were lowered, his heart was churning, he knew that he shouldn't say it, but now he was no longer allowed to be a woman's kindness, "Chen'er! It's not that I'm ruthless, it's just that there are some things I should tell you, but, let Yang'er go first, I beg you." ”

Xu Chen knew that with Xu Zijie's cultivation, there was no need to beg for himself at all, although his short sword had been raised, but with Xu Zijie's cultivation, it was enough to instantly repel him, or even kill him.

"Don't go away yet, see how I clean you up in the future!"

Xu Zijie suddenly shouted at Xu Yang, but in fact, there was endless distress in his heart.

Although he had just learned the truth about the incident a month earlier, it was his own son after all, although he himself felt ashamed.

As soon as Xu Yang heard this, he quickly ran away, but because of the pain, his body was extremely twisted.

Xu Chen, who reacted, just wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Xu Zijie, "Chen'er, if you want to vent the anger in your heart, then you can kill me!"

Xu Chen gritted his teeth and watched Xu Yang slowly disappear from his sight, "Father, you ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Chen suddenly looked up to the sky and smiled, and threw the short sword in his hand on the ground, "Father, are you here to arrest me?"

Xu Zijie shook his head, "Chen'er, if I wanted to arrest you, would you still be able to run away at that time?"

"Oh?"

Xu Chen turned his head and looked at Xu Zijie suspiciously, "You deliberately let me go?"

"Alas!"

Xu Zijie let out a long sigh, and gently grabbed Xu Chen's shoulders with both hands, "Chen'er, you have grown up! Let's sit down and talk. ”

Saying that, Xu Zijie took Xu Chen to sit on the ground, and the father and son sat side by side.

In fact, since he was a child, Xu Chen has never sat down and chatted with his father like this, although he wants to do it himself, but he has no chance. If it weren't for the current state, I don't know how happy Xu Chen would be.

"Chen'er, you came back today to see if Lao Wu left anything behind, right?"

Xu Zijie tilted his head and looked at the hazy moon.

"Yes!"

Xu Chen nodded, "Xu Yang said that you have also looked for it here." So you guessed the meaning of Uncle Wu's symbol, right?"

"Haha!"

Xu Zijie smiled softly, but there was no sense of relaxation on his face, "Chen'er! don't look for it, the symbol that Lao Wu left before he died didn't mean that he was hiding something at all." Originally, I was the same as you thought, but I searched the whole square and couldn't find it. I can now conclude that the symbol that Lao Wu left before he died is talking about the murderer who killed him!"

"Father, do you still think I killed Uncle Wu?" Xu Chen looked at Xu Zijie helplessly, with disappointment in his eyes, he didn't know why he didn't believe in himself as his father.

After a while, I saw Xu Zijie shake his head, smiled bitterly and said, "How could it be?" Of course I know that Lao Wu was not killed by you, he is a servant brought by your mother, and he taught you to cultivate, how could you kill him?"

Xu Chen looked at Xu Zijie in astonishment, "You...... You even know that?"

"I didn't know, but with your amazing performance, I guessed it! It's just that I still don't know anything about this old man!"

Speaking of this, Xu Zijie paused, and his voice became a little trembling and said, "Chen'er! There is something I have to tell you! But you have to be prepared. ”

Xu Chen nodded stiffly, "Say it!"

"Okay!" Xu Zijie glanced at it stupidly, and stroked Xu Chen's back with his left hand, "Chen'er! Actually...... Actually, you're not my own son!"

"Huh?"

Xu Chen was surprised, looking at the "father" timidly, from what Xu Zijie said at the beginning, Xu Chen had actually guessed a rough idea, but when he really heard this sentence, the churning pain in his heart was difficult to explain. He didn't say anything, just looked at Xu Zijie like this, and listened carefully to what he said.

"Chen'er!Actually, your mother and I are a fake couple, you are seventeen years old this year, that is, seventeen years ago, your mother and Lao Wu came to Yong'an Town, I could see that they were taking refuge at that time, she said that she was going to marry to Xufu, in fact, I also knew that they were just trying to hide their identity, because your mother was already pregnant at that time, that is, you. ”

"Although your mother is indeed beautiful, I was actually 10,000 unwilling at the time, after all...... However, in the end, your mother convinced me, because in exchange for a book that contained the cultivation exercises from the first realm to the ninth realm, you know, for an ordinary practitioner who is not in the sect, that is more precious than anything else. ”

Xu Chen nodded understandingly, "So, I have never seen you and your mother sleep in the same room since I was a child." ”

Xu Zijie nodded, "We both understand people, and we don't need to break anything, but after a long time, how can we have no feelings, just like to you, I watched you grow up, although you are not my own, but how can I not love it." In the battle with the Bai family ten years ago, I lost to Bai Qiantian, and it was you who saved the Xu family, but you should know that I was just as reluctant at that time. ”

Xu Chen also smiled bitterly when he heard this, and choked up: "I didn't say I regretted it!"

"I know, but I've always felt like I owe you!"

Xu Zijie tilted his head, tears had already flowed out wantonly, "Okay, that's all." Now I'll tell you who killed Lao Wu. ”

Xu Chen looked at Xu Zijie in surprise, "Father...... Do you know Uncle Wu's killer?"

"No! but I can already guess it!"

Xu Zijie stretched out his right hand and wiped it on his face indiscriminately, and continued: "Chen'er! Isn't it because of the symbol left by Lao Wu here? Actually, it is because Lao Wu has not finished painting. ”

"Oh?"

Xu Zijie nodded, glanced at the surprised Xu Chen, and said, "At the beginning, I was already a hexagram, so I am also like you...... But then I carefully examined Lao Wu's body, and the wound on his chest was actually wounded by two swords. Of course, this is not accurate, to be precise, it is a sword stab with two wounds. ”

"Huh?" Xu Chen probably didn't understand, "Can there be two wounds under a sword stab?"

Xu Zijie nodded, "As far as I know, there are many strange and profound sword duels in this world, but there is only one sword duel that can achieve such an effect, the sword duel against the mountain." ”

"Ahh

Xu Chen suddenly realized, "So Uncle Wu drew a hexagram, telling others that the person who killed him was using the sword to kill him......?" What does the vertical on the hexagram mean?"

"As I said, Lao Wu didn't finish the painting!" Xu Zijie explained, "Actually, Lao Wu wanted to paint a pattern like this." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and drew on the ground, although there were no traces left on the marble, Xu Chen could see it clearly.

It should be a hexagram, and then it goes straight to heaven and earth, and if you think about it, it is actually more like a "half" word, but the two points are flat.

After Xu Zijie finished painting, he continued: "Lao Wu wants to say that the person who killed him not only used the 'Dushan Sword Duel', but also the person of the Dushan Sect! ”

"Dushan Sect?" Xu Chen shook his head, "Why have I never heard this name?"

Xu Zijie smiled, "Yes, you have never heard of this name, we are extremely remote here, and naturally we know very little about the outside world." ”

Although the Dushan Sect is not the largest sect in the Chaoyang Kingdom, it is the most mysterious sect in the Chaoyang Kingdom, and some people say that the Dushan Sect is actually the uncrowned king of the cultivation world of the Chaoyang Kingdom, because it has an inseparable connection with the imperial court.

No one knows when it originated, and no one knows its original name, until the Chu family seized this power hundreds of years ago, and the Dushan Sect opened a mountain on a mountain outside the capital Boyan City, in fact, everyone knows that this sect has existed for a long time.

And there are countless masters among them. Because the mountain where it is located has two peaks, and the height of the two peaks is almost the same, just like the shape of a hexagram, it is named the Hexagram Mountain, and this sect is also named the Hexagram Sect. ”

Xu Chen couldn't help nodding, but suddenly he asked, "Since the Dushan Sect is so mysterious, why does it have anything to do with Uncle Wu?"

"It's not about Lao Wu, it's about you, or your mother's original family. Xu Zijie paused and said, "Actually, there is a disciple of the Dushan Sect in this area of Danyang City, and besides, you have lived with him for ten years!"

"Huh, you mean the poor day?"

Of course Xu Chen is not stupid, hearing this, of course he has already guessed.

Xu Zijie nodded silently, "Exactly, Bai Qitian used to be a disciple of the Dushan Sect, and I also experienced his strength and his Dushan Sword Duel in that battle ten years ago, and I was really convinced!"

Speaking of this, Xu Zijie let out a long sigh, mixed with infinite emotion, "Chen'er! This is why I pushed Lao Wu's death on your head, the Bai family is not something that my Xu family can afford to provoke, and it is obvious that he is not here for the Xu family at all, but for you, but you are nominally my son, and now only I know about it." So he couldn't tell who you really are, so ......"

Xu Zijie let out another long sigh.
