Chapter 925: The Unexpected Truth
The east of Liuyun City was originally a continuous mountainous area, but it had already become a flat land because of the Divine Phoenix Army.
Although Yun Che grew up in Liuyun City since he was a child, he had never been to this place until he was sixteen years old. There are many low-level mysterious beasts in the back mountain area, accompanied by Xiao Lingxi or Xia Yuanba, Xiao Lie will not prohibit him too much from entering, but in the mountainous area east of the city, Xiao Lie will never allow him and Xiao Lingxi to go. Maybe it's because it's too far away from Liuyun City to be assured of their safety.
Yun Che came to the sky, and his spiritual sense was quickly released, enveloping this land that had been trampled by the Divine Phoenix Army.
Although it was very faint, Yun Che could still vaguely sense that this land had once been covered by a blockade array. Obviously, after the Phoenix Divine Sect discovered the amethyst ore here, it immediately set up an invisible isolation barrier, so as not to be detected by others.
But unexpectedly, his spiritual sense swept all the way to twenty miles away, and he didn't perceive any amethyst breath.
There is no doubt that the Phoenix Divine Sect is extremely cautious about this matter, and has cleaned up this place cleanly, leaving no trace. After all, for the Phoenix Divine Sect at that time, once something was detected by the four holy lands, the consequences would be extremely dangerous.
Descending from the sky and stepping on the ground that had become thick, Yun Che pondered deeply, still unable to figure out why there were as many as 100 catties of purple vein divine crystals here.
Before, he only shook this doubt in his mind, and after that, there were too many things, and the doubts about the Purple Vein Divine Crystal were left behind him. While dealing with Xuanyuan's question, he suddenly thought of something that was not normal - a hundred catties of purple vein divine crystal, even if it was buried deeply, it would definitely release an extraordinary Xuanjing aura. It was very abnormal that the Four Holy Lands had not been discovered, and twenty-four years ago, the people of the Tianwei Sword Domain and the Sun Moon Divine Palace had also visited Liuyun City because they had hunted down and killed his parents, Yun Qinghong and Mu Yurou...... Xiao Ying was also killed at that time.
If you just have been there, it is understandable that you have not found it. But after they arrived in Liuyun City, they clearly searched the surrounding area for several days, even if they didn't dig three feet into the ground. With the spiritual strength of the Holy Land level, why didn't he perceive such a huge and high-level amethyst mine in the slightest?
What's more, those who can be sent to hunt down Yun Qinghong and Mu Yurou must be emperor-level figures...... The Sword Domain was still led by Xuanyuan and asked the young master personally.
Could it be that at that time, this amethyst mine did not exist?
No...... No way. Such a huge amethyst ore must have gone through an incomparably long period of time, and how could it be generated in just over twenty years.
In addition, according to the depth of the ground under the feet that the spiritual sense detected, this amethyst mine is not deeply buried, on the contrary, it can even be called quite shallow, and the shallowest place is only less than 20 zhang deep from the ground - the Shenhuang Army sent 200,000 troops to station here, and through daily "exercises" to make huge movements, it is to cover up the sound of grabbing the shallow amethyst ore.
Yun Che stood for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out. If it is said that the four holy places have never been close to this land for thousands of years, so they have never been aware of it, it may be able to be barely explained, but to say that the people who came to the holy land of Liuyun City all have short circuits in their brains...... It's really unreasonable.
Just as Yun Che was hesitating whether to dive under the mountain to find out, a figure suddenly appeared in the west, walking slowly towards this side.
Yun Che turned his eyes and saw an old man of medium stature and a kind face, his eyes suddenly moved, he got up and flew over, and landed in front of the old man: "Master Hong, why are you suddenly interested in coming here?"
The old man stopped, then smiled: "It turned out to be the little master." Alas, it's Madame's birthday again, and the lord asked me to pick some of Madame's favorite turnips. Little master, why are you here?"
Among the Xiao Sect, Yun Che respects Xiao Lie the most, and besides that, there is Xiao Hong in front of him. Xiao Hong was not originally a member of Xiao Sect, but Xiao Lie's father was rescued by his travels back then, brought back to Xiao Men, changed his surname to Xiao, and has been taking care of Xiao Lie's daily life since he was a child, and he is loyal to Xiao Lie. When Yun Che and Xia Tianyue got married, he also escorted Yun Che to pick up his relatives.
Every year on the day of the deceased wife's sacrifice, Xiao Lie will bring a large handful of turnips. Because this is his deceased wife's favorite flower during her lifetime, Yun Che and Xiao Lingxi have known this since they were children.
"I came over on a whim. Yun Che glanced around and said, "There don't seem to be any turnips around here, or I will go to another place with Hongye to look for them." ”
"No need," Xiao Hong shook his head with a smile: "The little young master is now a golden body, how can he accompany me to do such a rough thing." In previous years, you can see turnips everywhere here at this time, but since the Divine Phoenix Army came, this place has been razed to the ground, and turnips seem to be difficult to find, alas. ”
"It turns out that those turnips in previous years were all picked here. Yun Che said with emotion: "Speaking of which, since I was a child, my grandfather never allowed me and my little aunt to come here to play, and I didn't even know what this place was like before." ”
"Hehe, that's of course," Xiao Hong smiled and said with feeling: "After all, this is the sad place of the master, and even he himself rarely comes here after that." ”
"Sad?" Yun Che was slightly stunned: "What happened here, why is this grandpa's sad place." ”
"Oh?" Xiao Hong was surprised: "Hasn't the old man told the little master so far?" Oh...... Hehe, it's no wonder that the master really won't take the initiative to mention that kind of thing to you. After all, that is also the most painful place in the master's heart. ”
"......" Yun Che felt that something was unusual, and asked: "Master Hong, what happened here? Why is it the most painful place in Grandpa's heart? If you know, please tell me in detail, after all, I am no longer the child I used to be." After I find out, maybe I can still find a way to help my grandfather get out of the shadows here. ”
Xiao Hong shook his head: "I can't help, after all, the dead are gone." However, it doesn't hurt to tell the little young master about this, after all, the little young master is such a great person now. ”
"Little Master, do you know how the lady passed away back then?" Xiao Hong suddenly asked.
Yun Che said: "Uncle Xiao Ying died of a murderous hand, his wife was martyred, and their children did not know whether they were alive or dead. The grandmother was hit so hard that she became depressed, and died of depression shortly after giving birth to her little aunt...... Although this was not what my grandfather told me, it was said in Xiaomen and Liuyun City. Could it be that there is something hidden in this?"
Xiao Lie's wife died of depression after giving birth to Xiao Lingxi due to the pain of losing her son, which Yun Che never doubted before the age of sixteen. And after the age of sixteen, he had more memories of the Cangyun Continent, and when he thought about this incident again, the medical skills he had learned naturally made him have doubts in his mind.
The so-called woman is weak, and the mother is strong. Although the pain of losing a child is heartbreaking, Xiao Lie's wife will shift all her attention and love to her newborn daughter after giving birth to Ling Xi. No matter how much pain in my heart, I will try to become strong - this is a mother's instinct, and it is also the greatest thing about mothers.
I will never give birth to my daughter and leave it behind, "ending up depressed".
What's more, she was by no means alone at that time, and Xiao Lie, who had a deep relationship with her.
Therefore, whether it is from medicine or human nature, Xiao Lie's wife should not "die of depression", there must be other reasons. Like what...... Died of illness?
Xiao Hong looked at the flattened mountains in the east, and slowly narrated: "Back then, Young Master Xiao Ying was tragically murdered, and the little young master was nowhere to be found, and the fierce was more auspicious...... Alas, the old man was heartbroken at that time, but his feelings for his wife were indeed deep. ”
Yun Che: "......"
"When Madame was pregnant with Miss Lingxi for about six months, it was when the orchids were blooming here. The turnips are the favorite flowers of the lady, so the lord took the lady here to enjoy the blossoming of the turnips, in order to soothe the pain of the loss of her son in her heart, and I followed and waited by the side. ”
From morning to evening, Madame's mood was indeed rarely better. And just when the old man was about to return to Liuyun City with his wife, an unexpected accident suddenly happened. ”
"What accident?" Yun Che immediately asked.
"Madame...... Suddenly, there was a thunderbolt. More than 20 years have passed since the scene at that time, but Xiao Hong still has a look of horror when he thinks about it at this time.
"Hit...... A thunderbolt?" Yun Che was stunned, and his brain couldn't turn for a while: "What do you mean? How can it be good...... Thunder?"
"My lord and I are also puzzled. Xiao Hong sighed and said: "The orchid blossoms, the sky is clear, the sky is cloudy, there is not even a thin cloud." But suddenly a thunderbolt fell from the sky, and it happened to split on the lady's body...... And that thunder is still strangely black. ”
“...... Black!?"
"That's right, my lord and I can see it clearly. It was indeed a black thunderbolt, and my lord and I had only seen it in our lives. Its color, as well as its appearance are extremely weird, the old man thought that someone was plotting, it was the wicked man who killed Young Master Xiao Ying who came back to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, he was furious and searched, but in the whole mountain, except for the three of us, there was no other figure, and after that, there were no other accidents. ”
"And what happened after that, Grandma, what happened to her after she was hit by the black lightning?" Yun Che asked urgently, his brows furrowed.
Thunder falling in the clear sky is extremely abnormal, and if he encounters it, his first reaction must be that someone else will do it. And the black thunderbolt ...... The basic color of the thunder and lightning power is purple, and after the purple cloud skill of his Yun family reaches an extremely high level, it will turn into red thunder and lightning, but whether it is the Tianxuan Continent or the Phantom Demon Realm, or the Cangyun Continent back then, he has never seen or heard of any person or sect whose thunder and lightning power can be pitch black.
However, when Burning Dust and Xuanyuan Wentian released the Dark Mysterious Force, the extremely compressed Dark Mysterious Force sometimes formed a lightning-like lightning, which looked like black thunder and lightning...... However, more than twenty years ago, there was no dark power in the Tianxuan Continent at all, and the only Moon Killer Demon Lord who could use the dark power was firmly locked in the Moon Killing Demon Cave outside the continent.
The lady who was in the thunder and lightning fell unconscious on the spot, and then she was in a coma for three whole days before finally waking up, but the strange thing is that the lady did not have any traces of being injured by the lightning at all. But after that, the lady's body became extremely weak, she often had convulsions during the day, and nightmares at night. Later, the lady was pregnant for thirteen months before finally giving birth to Miss Lingxi, and after that, her health deteriorated, and it didn't take long for her to die......"
