Shangrao Village is a small village built at the foot of the mountain. According to Ling Xiao's visual inspection, the village is estimated to only have about a hundred households, which is very small.
But for Xiao Mo at this time, this is the most intimate and beautiful place, because here are her childhood memories and the parents she misses.
Can't wait, Xiao Mo rushed into the village like a child in an amusement park, shouting happily: "I'm back!!!"
However, everyone in this village looked at Xiao Mo like a stranger, which made Xiao Mo feel a chill in her heart.
No, what's in these eyes is a coldness that's even stranger than looking at a stranger!
"What...what's going on?" Xiao Mo felt a hint of uneasiness, and an ominous premonition enveloped Xiao Mo's mind, which made Xiao Mo immediately want to rush back to her home to take a look.
own parents.
Ling Xiao walked to Xiao Mo, looked at the surrounding villagers with a strange expression, and frowned: "They seem to have been poisoned. Let's go over and take a look."
The two of them walked towards an aunt in her fifties. Xiao Mo cautiously said to the aunt, "Auntie, can you tell me what's wrong with you?"
The aunt still looked at Xiao Mo with her uncomfortable eyes and murmured: "Xiao Mo, the master wants you to go back..."
This sentence was like the first piece of dominoes, quickly causing a chain reaction. Immediately afterwards, an old man next to him also said in a dry voice, extremely formatted: "Xiao Mo, the master wants you to go back..."
"Xiao Mo, the master wants you to go back..."
"Xiao Mo, the master wants you to go back..."
This sentence echoed everywhere at the same time, and the whole village was tightly surrounded by the continuous echo of this sentence.
"No!" Xiao Mo covered her ears tightly and ran frantically towards the north of the village.
"Xiao Mo, calm down!" Ling Xiao followed Xiao Mo closely until he ran to a dilapidated thatched house.
A man and a woman in their fifties were sitting at the door of the thatched house. Beside them were two teenage boys who looked very similar, sitting in front of their knees.
This scene looked extremely warm, but the eyes of the four of them were just like the other villagers, cold, weird, and dull.
"Dad, mother..." Xiao Mo called out in a trembling voice. The two of them seemed to hear Xiao Mo's voice. They slowly raised their heads to look at Xiao Mo and murmured: "Daughter, the master calls you.
go back……"
The two little boys also said to Xiao Mo: "Sister... the master asked you to go back..."
"Ah--" Xiao Mo screamed wildly and fell to the ground with a plop on her knees, tears rolling down her face.
"It's me...it's me who hurt you..." Xiao Mo's heart felt as if countless knives had been stabbed at this moment, and she was in pain.
With a straight face, Ling Xiao casually grabbed an old villager in his seventies and gave him a full-body diagnosis.
The result of the diagnosis was that the old villager's brain had been invaded by a toxin, and his brain function had completely degraded. As long as others taught him what to say, he only knew how to say this sentence.
"Erosion Nao Powder!" Ling Xiao's mind immediately recalled the description of this drug in the Tiancao Compendium. Its symptoms were exactly the same as those of these people.
As for the solution to the drug Einao Powder, there are only four words in the Tiancao Compendium: There is no solution!
Because the raw materials of this medicine are not synthesized from poison, it cannot be said to be poison at all, and naturally there is no cure.
The only way is to start from scratch and train these people's brains step by step, which is equivalent to retraining a person.
This will take at least ten to twenty years, not to mention, the memories of these people have been completely erased by Nao-Yo San. Even if they are re-cultivated, they will be completely different strangers!
"Xiao Mo, my condolences." Ling Xiao said calmly: "If you have the patience, take them away and support them well. Maybe one day, I will find a way to retrieve their lost memories."
Ling Xiao said this to not completely comfort Xiao Mo. The complexity of the human brain is far beyond what Ling Xiao can understand at this stage. When the Earth Soul Realm and the Heavenly Soul Realm arrive, there may be a skill that can restore people's memories.
So, everything is possible.
Xiao Mo cried for a long time, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying. Then she stood up from the ground and looked at Ling Xiao expectantly: "Is it true?"
Ling Xiao nodded firmly: "Even if my physical body is destroyed, I can quickly rebuild it. What else is impossible?"
Ling Xiao is so sure, naturally, to give Xiao Mo confidence. If you are not even sure about the person you are trying to persuade, how can you persuade someone?
"Thank you..." Xiao Mo wiped her tears: "But where is it safer to place them?"
Ling Xiao thought for a while and then said: "Maybe we can leave them in the Beimin faction."
Since Ling Xiao left, Cheng Yu has been secretly paying attention to the news about Ling Xiao. When she learned that Ling Xiao was trapped in the battlefield between gods and demons, her heart suddenly tightened.
Afterwards, Cheng Yu handed over all matters in the sect to the brothers Da Zhu and Xiao Zhu. He stopped talking to anyone in the sect and practiced hard day and night.
Everyone knew why Cheng Yu did this, and they had no other choice but to sigh secretly.
Many people may not know what Ling Xiao means to Cheng Yu, but everyone knows what Ling Xiao means to the Beimin Sect.
Even though there were rumors outside that Ling Xiao had fallen into the devil's path, people from the Beimin Sect still firmly believed that Ling Xiao was innocent.
This is a kind of belief that is almost worshipful. No one can change the belief of the Beimin sect disciples, even the two boys at the gate feel the same way.
"Is it really going to take ten years for Senior Brother Ling Xiao to come out?"
"Who knows? Anyway, I believe that Senior Brother Ling Xiao will not die, and as soon as he comes out, he will make those guys look good!"
The two boys were talking about Ling Xiao, when a young man and woman, a middle-aged man and woman and a pair of children appeared in their sight.
"Who are you looking for?" the two boys asked curiously.
The young man said gently to the two boys: "Please inform the head of Cheng that her brother who has been traveling is back."
The two boys looked puzzled, the head senior sister also has a brother? Why haven't they heard of it?
The young man knew that the two boys were curious, so he handed the two boys an orange crystal stone each: "As long as you pass on a message, isn't it just a word from the leader?"
"This..." The two men hesitated for a moment, and finally could not resist the temptation of the spar. One of them quickly ran towards the door, and the other politely said to the young man: "Your Excellency, please wait a moment.
"
"Brother...who is traveling abroad?" Cheng Yu didn't speak for a long time, and even his voice became a little hoarse.
She did not refuse outright and let the doormen chase the man away, but she did not immediately say that she wanted to see the man.
The boy looked at the leader who was undecided and didn't dare to say a word, for fear of disturbing the leader's thinking about something important.
"It's better...let him come in alone first, come to my room." After a long while, Cheng Yu finally made a decision.
The person who walked up to Cheng Yu was a completely unfamiliar young man.
But as soon as Cheng Yu saw those clear eyes and the faint smile on the corner of his mouth, the familiar feeling that he had not seen for a long time suddenly emerged.
"Ling... Xiao?" Cheng Yu asked bitterly.
She didn't know what she was feeling at this time. Facing this strange yet familiar man, she had a lot to say, but she didn't know what to say at the moment.
The young man showed a standard smile that only Ling Xiao had: "What do you think?"
The human skin mask was taken off, and the young man Ling Xiao changed back to Ling Xiao's appearance.
Yes, it was him. The man who made himself cry and laugh countless times in his dreams.
Without any more words, Cheng Yu at this moment only hoped that this moment could become eternal. And the man in front of him would stay here forever and never travel far...
