Xingyu had been very worried. When he saw Xiao He coming out, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "What did you say to the master?"
Xiao He smiled calmly and said: "It's nothing, I just experienced a life and death crisis. I told the master that I wanted to go home and see him, and the master has agreed."
"Shall I go with you?" Xingyu said with concern.
Xiao He smiled again and said: "I'm just going home, senior brother, don't worry, you should prepare well for the martial arts competition!"
Xingyu replied: "The disciples have long discussed that the top spot among the disciples this time should be between you and senior brother Tongran."
After Xingyu finished speaking, Xiao He looked slightly flattered and said humbly: "No way? How can senior brother Tongran's cultivation level be matched by mine?"
Xingyu smiled and replied: "You don't have to be too modest. After going through so many things, except for those scum disciples from Moyun Peak, all the disciples from other peaks admire you."
"Senior brother, it's a joke." Xiao He said.
Xingyu continued: "Junior brother, you must understand that excessive modesty is showing off, so prepare well and show off your skills in the martial arts competition!"
Xiao He said: "This puts me under a lot of pressure. What's more, senior brother, you are a master of magic. Last time we couldn't decide the winner."
"The last battle with my junior brother was very enjoyable, but unfortunately my master stopped me in time." Xingyu said with a smile, "This time, we must take advantage of the martial arts tournament to show off."
Xiao He smiled and said: "Just what I want!"
Seeing that he coincided with Xiao He, Xingyu smiled again and asked, "When are you leaving."
Xiao He replied: "I'll set off right now and try to leave early and come back early. There are outstanding disciples in each peak, so it's better to prepare early."
Xingyu nodded and said: "That's fine, then you can set off. We'll see you on the day of the martial arts competition!"
"Goodbye!" Farewell to Xingyu, Xiao He embarked on his way home.
Xuanyang City is located to the west of Guiyan Peak, thousands of miles away from Guiyan Peak. The last time I came from Xuanyang City to Guiyan Peak, I was seriously injured, and I walked step by step to the foot of Guiyan Peak with Kong on my back. Thinking about it now,
It still seems like yesterday.
Although they didn't get together for long, Xiao He's cultivation today has changed drastically compared to that day. At this time, he was stepping on the Dragon Valley Sword and turned into a shadow and flew towards his home.
On the way home, Xiao He was still thinking that he must go to Qian Buzheng's place to buy some meat and wine and share it with Senior Brother Xingyu when he went back. However, he had just flown over Xuanyang City and had not yet lowered his figure. He could only hear nothing.
There was a loud noise in the distance, Xiao He followed the sound, and a burst of red light flashed in the direction of his mansion. Although it was still a thousand meters away, Xiao He could still feel his face being hurt by the aftermath of the residual magic power.
He secretly thought that something was wrong, so he accelerated his body and flew away from home.
When Xiao He arrived, the scene in front of him shocked him. His huge house was now in ruins, and the passers-by who were watching around the door were all sighing.
Xiao He looked at the courtyard wall that had turned into powder in front of him, knowing in his heart that this was definitely not something that could be done by manpower. It must be the blessing of the magic circle that would have such destructive power. At the same time, he also understood that if it was really done by a cultivator, his parents
There was absolutely no chance for the clan members to survive. He quickened his pace to check the deep courtyard. At this moment, Xiao He just wanted to know if he could still find the bodies of his parents. However, in the ruins in front of him, there were nearly a hundred corpses of the Xiao family's servants scattered in the ruins.
, all were mutilated, none of them were complete, Xiao He was saddened by it, and couldn't figure out why he, an ordinary merchant among ordinary people, would get into trouble with the Immortal Cultivation Sect.
Just when Xiao He wanted to find the bodies of his parents, he saw a human hand under the courtyard wall not far away, making very weak movements. Xiao He quickly went over and moved away a few broken bluestones, but what he saw was
It was not her parents, but Ouyang Xin, who was engaged to her, who was dying at this moment. On Ouyang Xin's chest, the steel fracture fan that Xiao He gave her that day had been shattered into more than ten pieces by the magic power.
The steel fan with the handle had been blessed by the Mad Demon himself. It must have been because of this that it offset the mana shock just now, allowing Ouyang Xin to still survive.
When Ouyang Xin saw Xiao He, her eyes were filled with hope for a moment. She tried her best to speak and wanted to say something to Xiao He. However, at this moment, Ouyang Xin was so angry that she couldn't say a word.
Xiao He looked at Ouyang Xin with red eyes, trying to calm down his sadness. He slowly said, "Don't say anything, I will definitely save you."
After Xiao He finished speaking, he raised his hands and attached his luck energy to Ouyang Xin's chest. However, none other than Ouyang Xin, a top martial arts master in the world, could not survive this attack. No matter how hard Xiao He tried, Ouyang Xin could only vent his anger.
, there was no air intake, and there was no sound in the blink of an eye. Before she died, she still looked at Xiao He with hopeful eyes, and spoke hard, as if trying to say something, but in the end, she still did not leave even a last word.
Xiao He looked at Ouyang Xin. When they were separated last time, he promised to tell her stories when they meet again. Xiao He still remembers the last words Ouyang Xin said to him: Don't forget me!
I really feel too much guilt towards Ouyang Xin. Such an infatuated woman ended up like this in the end.
Ouyang Xin, whom he had grown up with since childhood, died tragically in front of him. His biological parents did not even leave the intact bodies, and none of his clan members and servants survived. For the first time in his life, Xiao He fell into great grief. However, in the midst of grief,
Xiao He still had a trace of reason left. He once again covered his ruined home with his spiritual consciousness, hoping to find even a trace of clues.
In fact, after being taught by Epilepsy Demon, Xiao He already knew a lot about magic formations. He had dabbled in magic formations from various sects. He could almost tell from the traces of his own magic formation that this magic formation was from the sect of Liuguang Blessed Land.
Door!
Xiao He carefully explored the entire house, unwilling to give up a corner. Finally, under the ruins of the main hall, Xiao He found a piece of talisman paper, which further proved that his house must have been attacked by the magic circle of the Xiuxian sect, and he had just been attacked by
Judging from the mana shock, this person's cultivation level should be very strong.
Xiao He put away the talisman and prepared to return to Guiyan Peak immediately to ask his master, Taoist Priest Tianyanzi, for clarification. However, at this moment, no matter how sad he was, there was still one thing that Xiao He had to complete with his own hands.
He picked up Ouyang Xin's body and flew out of the city. He didn't know how long he flew. He was already in the deep mountains and old forests in front of him. Not far away, he could hear the tinkling sound of spring water.
Xiao He looked around and decided to choose here.
He raised his hands and pushed forward. Under the bombardment of magic power, two square pits appeared on the flat ground in front of him. Xiao He first placed Ouyang Xin's body flatly into one of the pits, and then held it with his own hands.
He buried it with handfuls of earth and buried it. In the pit next to it, there was not even a corpse. Similarly, Xiao He also filled the pit with handfuls of earth.
In front of the empty tomb, Xiao He erected a stone tablet for his parents. On the inscription of the stone tablet, Xiao He carved seven words one by one: Xiao Heli, the unfilial son. And on the tombstone in front of the tomb next to where Ouyang Xin was buried.
, Xiao He didn’t write a word, he just hung the copper bell that Ouyang Xin gave him that day on Ouyang Xin’s tombstone.
Xiao He left, and two new tombs were built in the deep mountains and forests outside Xuanyang City. On the tombstone in front of one of the tombs, there was a copper bell, swaying gently in the wind, making a crisp sound, as if it was telling something about the past.
.
Since then, the Ouyang family has become the dominant family and has expanded its huge commercial territory in human society. The Xiao family in Jiangnan died in such an unexplained explosion. Naturally, the government also sent people to find out the truth. However, the truth has long been beyond
According to ordinary people's knowledge, this matter became nothing in the end. It is really sad that the Xiao family, which was originally a wealthy family, disappeared overnight, but history is like this. In addition to becoming a gossip for people after dinner,
Apart from the conversation, it didn't cause any more waves. After two or three years, no one mentioned it.
The dead are dead, and more things have to be done by the living.
After this incident, Xiao He naturally found it difficult to calm down, but he still tried his best to calm down. After taking care of his parents and Ouyang Xin's funeral, he hurried back to Yanfeng with the talisman paper.
At the top of the Alchemy Peak in the Guiyan Mountains, there is a young man in blue playing with a steel gun by the mountain spring. The steel gun is like a tiger, and the whistling sound almost covers the entire mountain peak. The fallen leaves around him move with the direction of the young man's magic power.
Gradually, it was blocking the sky and the sun. However, at this moment, the boy stopped, and the fallen leaves that had just blocked the sky also fell vertically to the ground, forming a huge circular distribution with the boy as the center.
The young man raised his head slightly and stared not far away. There was another young man in white coming with a sword. These two people were Xing Yu and Xiao He.
Xiao He lowered his body and fell to the ground, and Xingyu also stepped forward to meet him. In just one encounter, Xingyu could already see Xiao He's lost expression, so he asked with concern: "Junior brother, what happened? What happened?
Come back so soon."
"Is Master here? I want to see him." Xiao He said in reply to the question.
Xingyu nodded and said: "He is here, I will accompany you to see the master."
Xiao He nodded slightly, and the two walked side by side towards the Xian Pavilion at the foot of the mountain.
In the main hall of Xian Pavilion, Tianyanzi was still sitting upright. Listening to Xiao He explain the whole story, he did not say any words of condolences, but just stared at the talisman in his hand that Xiao He brought back, and said: "This talisman
I am sure that the paper must be the talisman used by Beiluomen to activate the formation."
"Beiluomen?" Xiao He answered doubtfully.
Xingyu thought Xiao He was puzzled and continued: "Beiluo Sect is under the jurisdiction of Liuguang Blessed Land. It is a sect on the same level as me at Guiyan Peak. It is extremely good at using formations."
After hearing Xingyu's introduction, Xiao He nodded thoughtfully. In fact, he was not unaware of the existence of Beiluomen. In fact, based on the classic book that the old man passed on to him and recorded by the old man himself, Xiao He also deduced that
This matter seems to be related to Beiluomen, but there is one thing that Xiao He is very confused about, and Tianyanzi explains this confusion: "But, why does Beiluomen want to attack a mortal family like yours?"
Xiao He couldn't understand this question. At first, his father knew about Guiyan Peak, which puzzled him. But at that time, he only vaguely felt that his father might have some relationship with the Immortal Cultivation Sect, but before he could ask clearly, he
What happened now.
After a long while, Xiao He said: "It seems that I can only find out this matter by going to Beiluomen in person."
After Xiao He finished speaking, he turned around to leave. Just when Xingyu was about to stop him, Taoist Master Tianyanzi said unhurriedly: "With your current strength, going alone will not help at all. It is just an egg striking a stone."
The words of Taoist Priest Tianyanzi made Xiao He, who was burning with anger, quickly calm down. The master was right. His current strength was indeed far behind.
