Yan Xiazi came here to arrest the traitor He Muqing in accordance with the sect's decree, and at the same time recovered a supreme secret treasure of the sect. But this treasure is really extraordinary. When Yan Xiazi took over the task, he already had the intention of killing people and stealing the treasure.
At this moment, He Muqing's body was dead, and all the people in the town were turned into wooden puppets by him, and no one survived. Yan Xiazi no longer had any scruples, and came to He Muqing's hidden treasure place obtained by the soul search, muttering something in his mouth, and with a tactic with his right hand, a crystal clear bead flew out from under the dilapidated house. The bead is half black and half white, and the two colors of energy inside are connected end to end, flowing slowly, which looks quite extraordinary.
"This is the secret bead..." Thinking that this bead is so mysterious that even the suzerain won't have time to investigate carefully after getting it, and now it fell into his hands, he felt extremely comfortable.
However, at this moment, Yan Xiazi suddenly frowned, and sighed softly: "It seems that there is still one alive...".
under the night sky.
A ten-year-old boy was walking on the streets of the small town. It was Liang Yan who came back from Wenliang Mountain. Liang Yan felt strange just now outside the town, Huaiyuan Town tonight was too quiet, this strange feeling became more intense after entering the town, and after walking for a while, Liang Yan already showed an unbelievable expression on his face.
I saw the surrounding houses, large and small, as if a hole had been punched by a sky thunder, the roofs were dilapidated, and there was no one in the house.
Liang Yan's heart tightened, and he hurriedly ran to his father's house, but when he got to his own house, his hands trembled, as if he didn't dare to push the door.
Finally, he took a deep breath and gently pushed the small wooden door open. His whole body was instantly stunned as if struck by lightning.
There was only one person in the room, wearing a green dress and a straw hat, sitting slumped on the ground, his whole body wilted, as if someone had taken away the essence of his flesh and blood, leaving only a piece of skin sticking to the bone, his eyes were wide open, it was obvious that he had been dead for a long time.
"Father!" Liang Yan's heart-piercing cry made him walk towards the corpse in a daze, as if he had lost his soul.
Ever since he could remember, Liang Xuan had been dependent on each other. When he was eight years old, Liang Xuan told him that he was not born, but picked up from a bamboo basket in the river.
But even so, Liang Xuan treated him as his own son, and Liang Yan already regarded him as his biological father. Liang Xuan never married in his life, and only this precious son was regarded as a treasure. Just wait for him to be brought up, to be admitted to fame, to marry a wife and have children, and there will be no regrets in this life.
But now, as luck would have it, he only went out for a trip, and his family has undergone such drastic changes. Recalling every detail of his life with his father, Liang Yan burst into tears. The pain of losing a loved one made him feel hopeless, as if the sky had collapsed.
At this time, a soft sigh came from behind,
"The world is impermanent, good and bad are unpredictable, and you don't need to worry too much."
Liang Yan turned around and saw a blind old man standing outside the door, it was him The one I met on the mountain road before.
At this moment, Liang Yan was in a daze. He didn't think about why the old man was here. He just asked, "What is the crime of the people in Huaiyuan Town? Everyone has lived here for generations, and they have never done anything harmful. Why is the sky so cruel that people in this small town have to suffer so much?"
Yan Xiazi was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Have you ever heard that a man is innocent, but pregnant is guilty? The residents of Huaiyuan Town are innocent, wrong It was the devil who stole the treasure and hid it."
Liang Yan was originally restless, but after hearing these words, he suddenly woke up. Looking at Yan Xiazi, he smiled wryly and said, "So that's how it is, so that's how it is. Compared with the treasure of the Xian family, the lives of our mere mortals are really nothing, so I don't know who killed my father?" Yan Xiazi heard the
words He seemed to be taken aback for a moment, then he looked at Liang Yan meaningfully and said,
"Hey, little baby is a big kid, don't worry, I've already taken care of the person who killed your father."
Liang Yan nodded after listening . : "So I can go on the road with peace of mind now?"
Yan Xiazi didn't speak, but just smiled with his hands behind his back.
Without another word, Liang Yan turned his head away, knelt down towards his father's body, and silently kowtowed three times.
A gust of wind whizzed from behind, and suddenly a scorching hot breath penetrated into his body, as if his muscles, bones, and flesh had been evaporated dry.
"Did you just die like this..."
These were the last words Liang Yan thought of. At the last moment when he closed his eyes, Liang Yan seemed to hear a compassionate Buddha's chant outside the room, and then a golden light flashed in front of his eyes, and he lost consciousness again. up.
...
After an unknown amount of time, Liang Yan felt himself in darkness. His whole body felt like it was tearing apart, but then a warm current flowed through his limbs, calming the pain. Suddenly a gust of cool wind blew, Liang Yan leisurely opened his eyes.
What caught the eye was a simple room with a square table missing a corner and a set of ceramic teapots and cups on it. There is a picture scroll hanging on the wall, which seems to be a picture of a traveler in the deep mountains. The whole room is a bit worn out, many places are covered with dust, it is obvious that it has not been cleaned for a long time.
Another gust of cool wind blew by, it was late autumn at this time, Liang Yan turned his head to look, the window was wide open, and the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, it was the time of autumn, but the scene of his father's tragic death appeared before his eyes again, and he couldn't help but Heart like a knife.
"Oh, the sky is so big, and I don't know where to go in the future."
Liang Yan sighed softly, got out of bed and walked outside the house.
When I got out of the room, I realized that it was a teahouse, which opened on the official road in the field, and I was in the first floor room just now.
"Why is there no one in this teahouse, not to mention tea customers, even the waiters have not seen it, it's really strange!"
He muttered in his heart as he walked out of the gate. When I went out of the gate, I saw an old monk sitting cross-legged on a huge rock at the gate. The old monk's face was haggard, his body shriveled like dead wood, and his gray monk clothes seemed to have not been washed for many years. If it weren't for his slowly opening eyes, he would really look like a dead man.
The old monk seemed to know what Liang Yan was thinking, and said calmly, "In the first half of the year, there was a plague of locusts here, and the nearby villagers had no crops, and the bandits came to do evil again, so this teahouse can't continue to open, and the shopkeeper and his staff all ran away "
Liang Yan was silent for a while, and tentatively asked: "The boy has encountered a catastrophe. He should be in the underworld at this time, but the master saved him out of righteousness?
" Reveal the color of pity.
Liang Yan knew that what he had expected was right, so he took big strides, walked up to the old monk, knelt down on the ground with a thud, and kowtowed three times in a row.
The old monk's complexion changed, and he hurriedly said: "You don't have to be like this, little benefactor."
Liang Yan knocked his head three times and said loudly: "Master can save the boy from that monster, he must be a fairy monk, please accept me as a monk." Disciple, teach me the way of immortality."
The old monk sighed, and said, "You want to cultivate immortality, what is the so-called?
" Blood feud!"
"The person who killed your father is dead."
"The chief culprit is dead, and the rest of the crime has not been punished!"
The old monk frowned and said, "The rest of the crime?"
"Hmph, the reason why my father and the townspeople died tragically is because Because the immortal family seized the treasure, although the blind man did not directly kill my father, but he also facilitated this matter. Moreover, if the immortal family seized the treasure and mortals suffered, even if my father did not die, as long as the blind man successfully seized the treasure, He will definitely kill people, and my father still has no way out."
After hearing this, the old monk looked at Liang Yan again, and said inwardly, "This little baby looks like he is only in his early ten years old, why does he have such an extreme personality? ? But he is thoughtful, not much worse than an adult!"
What the old monk didn't know was that Liang Yan had been eccentric since he was a child, and even said that he was a little too clever. When I was in Huaiyuan Town, I made troubles for the surrounding residents. The townspeople are simple and simple.
The old monk kept silent and put his hand on Liang Yan's head.
"This kid has immortal roots, but his aptitude is mediocre. However, my supernatural powers don't necessarily require aptitude against geniuses to practice. Moreover, this kid is smart and has a lot of wisdom roots, so he can pass on my mantle. His background Miserable, if no one takes care of him, I'm afraid he will die soon..." Thinking of his tragic experience, he felt pity for a moment.
"No! I don't know how to accept disciples. I have already taught a monster in the world. What qualifications do I have to accept disciples again? Moreover, this kid is extremely hostile, and he will kill many evils in the future." Thinking of his own villain
, The old monk couldn't help feeling disheartened again.
So he said lightly: "If I accept you as an apprentice, I need to have three chapters of the law, and follow me to the sect to cultivate for a hundred years, and I will not seek revenge from that person in the future." "Then what is the use of my cultivation?" "Cultivation is
for
gain Dao Changsheng, you should cut off the cause and effect of the world."
Liang Yanhu stared at him and said: "You must avenge the murder of your father, and I will forgive you. I thank the monk for saving my life today. If there is a chance in the future, I will be smashed to pieces. I thought it would be a good report! Farewell!"
After saying that, he bowed deeply to him, and turned his head towards the east of the main road.
"This kid..."
The old monk clasped his hands together, smiled wryly, and didn't hold back, but watched his back go away.
...
Liang Yan walked alone on the official road, thinking of the tragic death of his adoptive father, he felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.
"Hey, the sky and the earth are vast, and there are no traces of immortality. How can I, a mortal boy, find this trace of immortality? Let alone revenge in the future. I didn't believe it when I heard that wandering old man bragging about the immortals in the world. I saw it with my own eyes, but I never thought it would be such a tragic event..."
Thinking about it, there was a growling sound in my stomach, it turned out that I had been walking for a long time, and before I knew it, it was noon.
"Looks like we should solve the stomach problem first."
Liang Yan learned kung fu from the martial arts instructor in the town since he was a child.
Not long after, somewhere in the forest, a steaming hare was driving on top of a bonfire. A young man in gray was hugging a rabbit leg and chewing and swallowing. This person was Liang Yan.
Liang Yan was feeling satisfied after eating half a hare, when he suddenly heard a small sound. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he knew that this was the sound of weapons being handed over, that someone was fighting nearby. Ignoring the hare at the moment, I hurriedly extinguished the bonfire, covered it with soil, and then tiptoed towards the direction where the sound came from.
Not far away, he heard a faint sound of scolding, Liang Yan pushed aside a corner of the bushes and looked into the middle.
I saw a swordsman in blue shirt holding a long sword with dragon pattern in his hand, fighting four bandits in black alone. Although the blue-shirted swordsman fought four against one, he did not lose the wind at all. A long sword fluttered up and down, and afterimages were drawn in the air. The left arm of one of the bandits was dripping with blood, which was obviously injured. Not a minor injury.
Liang Yan was secretly startled, with this swordsman's skills, he was considered a first-class master in the Jianghu, but for some reason he was chased and killed. At this time, the blue-shirted swordsman swung the four of them away with a sword, turned back, and said indifferently
: "Is that all you bastards have this strength? You also want to plot against my lady?"
You know something you shouldn't know, and you will definitely die this time!"
It was not the four bandits who said this, but two more people who came out of the forest, one tall and one short, and it was the one who spoke. tall. And the four bandits before were faintly headed by these two.
Seeing that there were two more masters, the blue-shirted swordsman couldn't help secretly impatient. Without waiting for everyone's reaction, Lightning shot straight at the tall man.
The tall bandit snorted coldly, and pulled out a long knife to meet him, while the short bandit also pulled out a copper hammer to join the battle group.
The more the blue-shirted swordsman fights, the more frightened he becomes. Just one-on-one, the martial arts of the two of them are no longer inferior to him. At this moment, they are one against two, and they have been defeated in less than thirty moves.
"When did such a powerful bandit appear in the rivers and lakes?" He wondered in his heart, but he didn't dare to think too much, thinking of countermeasures in a hurry to find a way out.
At this moment, a small blue knife shot out from the forest, with a dazzling blue light, it cut off all the trees it passed, and went straight to the blue-shirted swordsman without losing momentum.
The swordsman was startled, and hurriedly swung his sword to block it, but the dragon-patterned long sword was cut in two by the blue knife like paper paste.
With a puff, the blue knife plunged into the swordsman's throat, leaving only the hilt outside. The blue-shirted swordsman stared at the hilt in front of his throat with an expression of disbelief, and slowly fell down.
At this time, a young man came out of the forest, dressed in a purple robe and gold and silver, like a member of the city.
Seeing him, the rest of the gangsters immediately showed respect, bowed their heads and clasped their fists, shouting: "The gang leader is mighty, no one can beat him!"
The purple-clothed youth seemed to enjoy it very much, squinting his eyes and snorting:
"You trash, let me You can't do anything well, this person is the enshrinement of their house, this trip is dedicated to scouting the way ahead, and by chance, we learned of our plan, how can we let him escape?" Those bandits were
full His face was sweating profusely: "This subordinate is ineffective, please forgive me and let me atone for my sins!"
The young man in purple waved his hand and said: "Forget it, the important thing is, if you do this job well, I don't know how much real money is waiting for us ."
He paused, then asked again: "Have you found out everything around you?"
The tall bandit immediately replied: "I have found out everything. There is a teahouse not far ahead. It has been abandoned for a long time. We can pretend to be buddies according to the plan and ambush them." "Well, the teahouse is empty now
. If there are people, kill them all, and don't leak any news about us, Cheng Laoer, go gather the horses, set off immediately after eating, and follow the plan when you arrive there." "Your subordinates understand!" The tall bandit responded, and
hurried Then he showed a lewd expression, and said with a hey smile: "Boss, there are a few chicks in that group who are not bad, and we brothers will have to enjoy it.
" Xuan nodded.
The short bandit seemed suspicious, and asked: "Boss, I'm actually very puzzled. Why bother to design an ambush? With your immortal methods, just let them come and go." "Hmph,
Shi Third son, how lenient are you now?"
"Your subordinates dare not." Shi Laosan hastily lowered his head.
The purple-clothed youth snorted and said, "Among them is a master, whose martial arts are so strong that he has reached the level of letting his internal strength out, even with immortals like us, he has the power to fight. You must not be careless." In fact, this purple-clothed
youth He is the concubine of a Xiuxian family, named Chen Lin. His spiritual roots are extremely poor, and he has no intention of cultivating since he was a child. Instead, he is greedy for worldly enjoyment, especially gold and silver women. He was kicked out of the house after he became an adult, so he became a bandit here. With his first-level cultivation of Qi refining, he is also very interesting. Except for some inner masters, it is difficult to pose a threat to him in the world.
Seeing these bandits take out their bags and start a fire to cook here. Liang Yan stepped back cautiously.
"No, these people are going to the teahouse later. I wonder if the old monk will be okay there?"
Although he knew that the old monk was not an ordinary person, Liang Yan had never seen a fairy fight, let alone an old monk. Wait for someone to make a move.
In his opinion, the blue-shirted swordsman just now was already a top-notch master, but he couldn't even move in front of this purple-clothed youth.
"Well, although the old monk refused to accept me as an apprentice, he saved my life after all. If I don't report the knowledge now, wouldn't I be watching him die?" "Although this group has horses, they are cooking
now I might not be able to arrive before them, and if I persuade the monk to leave, it will be regarded as saving his life, and there will be no debts from now on." Liang Yan made up his mind, and immediately ran towards the teahouse with all his strength
