In the small city of Jiexi City, a small city in the Nuoqi Empire in Yaning Continent, there is no busy figure in a huge manor, which looks a little deserted.
It was spring, and the spring rain was flying in thin streams, which even cast a faint mist on the big manor. The air seemed to be filled with a faint aura of sorrow.
A young man who looked about fifteen years old, wearing a black training suit, strided from the outer courtyard of the manor through a large garden in the middle, and went straight to the inner courtyard.
The young man was named Lin Xi, and he was the young master of this family that had once been extremely glorious.
Under Lin Xi's long eyelashes, his blue eyes looked very deep and emitted a firm light. It seemed that after some hard practice, dense beads of sweat had already emerged from his forehead, mixed with drizzle, and his forehead was covered with the drizzle.
A strand of brown hair was wet. However, Lin Xi didn't care and just walked forward. Behind him, a fat dog with yellow curly hair was raising his round head and following happily.
"Mother, I'm back." Lin Xi shouted inside as soon as he stepped onto the bluestone steps in the inner courtyard.
The same sentence has been said for three years, and Lin Xi has not changed until now.
"Lin Xi, you are back. It must be hard to refine your body. I have already boiled the hot water. Go and wash it quickly." The person who responded was a tall and mighty man, not the gentle and maternal love three years ago.
sound.
"Father, have you forgotten? Every time I finish my body refining, I will see my mother before taking a shower." Lin Xi stopped his steps and said with a smile, but the smile came a little reluctantly.
Bird was silent for a while, but said nothing, but made way for a way, and then watched his son's somewhat lonely back pass through the corridor, stepping on the floor with a heavy muffled sound, disappearing behind a big house
.
"Mother, I'm here again. You won't think I'm disturbing you!"
Lin Xi smiled and said, looking at his extremely familiar face in front of him.
After a long time, no response was received in the room.
"Mother, you are asleep again." Lin Xi gently slid his fingers across his mother's face, trying to combed the slightly scattered cloudy temples on her head.
But all Lin Xi did seems so futile now!
"Mother, I dreamed of you again when I dreamed last night. You took me to the field full of sunflowers. How brilliant and comfortable the beautiful flowers blooming against the sunshine look!"
A crystal teardrop as big as a bean fell from Lin Xi's eye socket and made a "pop" sound, followed by a second, a third...
Tears fell like pearls with broken lines.
However, a layer of cold crystal rejected the tears. Even though the thickness of the crystal was very thin, it actually separated the two in two different worlds, allowing Lin Xi to look at his mother who was close to him.
It's out of reach!
That is the eternal separation between heaven and man!
A three-meter-long crystal coffin lies across the room, and the cold air emitted from it looks so abrupt and cold even in this warm and pleasant spring!
Lin Xi's mother, Shirley, was lying quietly in this huge crystal coffin, her eyes closed and her long green hair spread on the pillow, as if she was asleep. Her calm face could vaguely
I saw a faint smile.
The tears falling on the crystal coffin blurred Lin Xi's eyes. Lin Xi began to wipe it with his hands, hoping to see his mother more clearly. Lin Xi's hands were bent and rubbed against the smooth crystal.
It seems like I want to make this hateful crystal panel disappear.
At this moment, Lin Xi hoped that his mother could open her eyes, even if she just looked at her!
"Lin Xi, let's go back," a dull and painful voice rang in the room, "Don't disturb Shirley."
Lin Xi raised his head and looked at the person he was most familiar with in the world with red and swollen eyes. His father's face was also covered in tears. Just three years ago, his father's body was still so tall and so mighty, but now he is ruthless
The years only took a short time to change him into a dusk face.
Sadness permeates the hearts of the father and son.
"Father," Lin Xi sobbed for a moment, but she didn't say anything after all. After using her sleeves to wipe the tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, Lin Xi slid her hands reluctantly across her mother's face, and turned to follow Bird.
Behind him, he walked out of the room.
"Lin Xi, listen to my father, don't go to refine your body in the afternoon, okay?" Bird pressed his hand on Lin Xi's shoulder and said solemnly.
"No," Lin Xi said stubbornly with a firm look on his face, "There is still a whole afternoon left in the day. If I don't go to refine my body, I don't know what else I can do in this manor."
Bird sighed, shook his head, gently lowered Lin Xi's hands on his shoulders, and said nothing.
Three years ago, Bird made almost no careful arrangements. After dismissing all his servants, he hurriedly moved from the imperial capital Noqi to this strange and remote city of Jexi. At that time, Lin Xi, who had always liked to study.
Body refining began at Bird's suggestion.
Although he lost his previous wealthy life and was far less prosperous than the city of Noqi, Lin Xi still felt that life was very happy as long as the family could live happily together.
Unexpectedly, my mother suddenly became seriously ill a month ago. Even though my father tried his best, he could not stop his condition from worsening. His favorite mother went there forever.
Without the selfless care and careful care of his mother, he could not see his mother's kind and familiar smile or her gentle and beautiful face, Lin Xi only felt that his world collapsed silently overnight.
When my mother was alive, Lin Xi, who was not interested in the path of cultivation, usually only spent two hours a day to refine her body, and only treated it as exercise. But now, Bird has hardly seen Lin Xi appear in the study again.
In the middle, he spent most of his time on body refining.
Sitting in the study will only increase sadness. Lin Xi simply forced himself to work hard by constantly refining his body, making his body and nerves numb, so that he could temporarily forget this heartbreaking injury.
Sure enough, in the afternoon, Bird saw Lin Xi change into a white training suit, and walked towards the open space on the west wall with his head silenced.
"Master, if this continues, it will be bad for Young Master Lin Xi!" Bird, who was leaning at the door, turned around and found that the old man with white hair and beards, Ji Kato was staring at Lin Xi's leaving back.
"What else can I do to make Lin Xi forget this pain? For him, losing Shirley is like losing the whole world! His sadness and his heartache, how could a father not know and not understand?
?Hey! I just hope Lin Xi can get out of his sadness as soon as possible. I have no other extravagant hope in this life, I hope everyone can be safe and sound."
Jikato sighed and said, "Yes, Ping An is better than anything else. Perhaps it is a good thing for Young Master Lin Xi to not be a warrior. It is better not to let Young Master Lin Xi know other things about the family.
”
Bird nodded first, then changed the subject, "It's you, Jikato, you know that the family will face great danger, why don't you just listen to my advice to leave this manor? You have also seen it, since three years
Before, I was forced to move my family to this remote place, and the danger was pressing step by step. You and Reina are my relatives, and Reina is your only grandson! How can you make you have the original ambition?
What about the future Reiner in this dangerous situation?”
Jikato smiled, his rough big hands gently stroked his snow-white beard, "Honor, the Uk family is my home and Reina. Where will we go if we are not at home? Let me leave alone and watch you and Lin
Master Xi is in danger, I really can't do it."
"You are such a stubborn person! Think about it, when I dismissed my family's servants, although I couldn't bear to leave them, they had a peaceful and undisturbed life from now on, and they didn't have to be worried day and night, if it were the year
How great it would be that you and Reiner did this!"
However, Jikato did not talk about himself anymore, but said: "Head of the family, let Reina and I live here. If you take the young master away, will you still pester us?"
Bird shook his head helplessly, "Escape? What's the use? You underestimate these people too much. Even if Lin Xi and I hide at the end of the world, they will chase them. Moreover, Shirley is here
, I won't leave her."
Jikato sighed again, sighing endlessly.
Bird held Jikato's callous hands tightly, looked at Jikato's eyes and said word by word: "Jicato, promise me that if danger comes, you must take Renner to leave early
!”
"Where is Young Master Lin Xi?"
"Hmph! Even if I try my best to avoid this, I will never let Lin Xi be hurt, otherwise how can I be worthy of Shirley in heaven?" Bird said resolutely.
"Yes, I understand the head of the family." Jikato nodded, but another belief was in his heart.
"Okay, let's not say this anymore. Three years ago, I just secretly learned about their people's secret activities in the imperial capital. At that time, they probably hadn't noticed us yet. Moreover, this Jiexi City is not as prosperous as Nuoqi
It is probably not that easy to find us."
"What the head of the family said."
"Let's go! Let's go to the Western Wall to see the two children! Renner's fighting spirit has reached the first level in the late stage for a while, and there should be a breakthrough soon!"
When the two of them arrived at the open space, they heard a loud voice making a "hi" sound from afar. Bird didn't need to look carefully and knew that it must be Reiner who was igniting the fighting spirit.
Sure enough, when Bird walked in, he suddenly found Reina squatting in horse stance, and his hands kept pushing out, and black fighting spirits visible to the naked eye were constantly coming out of Reina's hands.
After the black dou energy is emitted, it is thin filaments. Although it is not long in length, it makes a "crackling" sound as soon as it comes into contact with the air and is accompanied by a flash of light. After it falls on the ground, it can actually smash the grass into a diameter of about
A small pit with an inch thickness is also half an inch, and the momentum is terrifying.
"Renner, your lightning attribute fighting qi is becoming more and more powerful." Bird said with a smile. There is no doubt that the lightning attribute fighting qi is the most aggressive of all types of fighting qi.
Seventeen-year-old Reiner stopped his movements, wiped off the sweat from his forehead with his hands, and stroked his brown hair back, and then said with a little embarrassedly: "Compared to my uncle and grandpa's.
The light of the sun and the moon comes, and my little trick is as different as that light."
"You little brat, if you don't know how to use words, you still have to force yourself. You're not afraid of the head of the family laughing?"
Reiner stuck out his tongue at his grandfather, and then said to Bird: "Uncle, look, Lin Xi is playing hard to refine his body again." Reiner also seemed helpless as he spoke.
