"The fire, the mansion, the corpse. But the palace? Liu Xiangfu?" Feeling the shaking of the head behind her, Liu Yanxue didn't know whether to be depressed or thankful, she continued to ask, "In the corpse...is there someone Qing'er is familiar with?" face?"

"... can't see clearly, except... you."

With so few leads, late-night discussions seemed pointless.

Liu Yanxue patted He Kunjin on the back of the head, and comforted her: "At least it is confirmed that this happened when we were separated, neither in the palace nor in Liu Xiangfu. If this is the case, if Qing'er Don't worry, just tie me to your belt in the future and stay with me every step of the way?"

"..."

"Qing'er is good, don't be afraid, dreams are reversed." He patted the back of He Kunjin's head again, "Go to bed earlier, you have to go to court tomorrow."

"..." When did I become a three-year-old child?

After a long while, the breathing of the two gradually calmed down, and they finally walked out of the shadow of the nightmare for a while, and fell into the sweet dreamland in each other's arms.Unfortunately, the nights elsewhere are not peaceful.

……

"Don't, don't, Daddy, Daddy..." The boy's cry faded away with the walking pace.

The man in the study looked sadly at the only son who was carried on the shoulders of the servant and walked out of the door.With the disappearance of the footsteps and cries, the tranquility when he was alone was restored in the room, and his heart was empty.Shaking his head, shaking off the reluctance for his son and the fear of the future in his heart, he turned around and came to the desk, from which he picked up a piece of letter paper with bloody patterns on it.What was drawn on that paper was a bright red circle surrounded by complex symbols and words, a blood circle that he knew the meaning of its existence although he didn't understand the specific meaning.

"Is it today? The god of death's forecast, is it today? I hope Zhuo'er can escape in time..." Muttering to himself was full of pain and powerlessness.

Kacha, a sound came from nowhere, and the man's body tensed instantly.He pulled out the long sword on the side of the table, took a deep breath, and said, "Don't be so mysterious, come out. My life is here, if you really can get it." The long sword raised With a seamless gesture, the orange-red glowing blue fire burned from the man's palm to the blade, which was truly terrifying.

"Yanling clan? Oh, what a coincidence." A voice could neither distinguish gender nor age, "I've always wanted to see what the Yanling clan looked like when they died in the sea of ​​fire."

Before the words fell, a black shadow rushed towards the man holding the sword.Clang!The sound of metal is not metal colliding, but metal falling to the ground.The man holding the sword fell to the ground without knowing when or how, unconscious.

"Stupid, one is stupider than the other." The black shadow bent forward and knelt down on one knee in front of the unconscious man.He took out a strange thing from his body, and pierced the needle point of the thing into the back of the man's neck.

The quiet night was burnt through by the sudden fire, leaving only the man in the study who had lost his breath in the empty mansion.Neighbors were choked out of sleep by the fire, and they moved out of their gates while cursing, and surrounded the sea of ​​flames.The sparks were jumping, the flames were raging, and the choking smoke and dazzling flames did not allow people to approach at all; the people on the sidelines whispered, murmured and pointed, but no one dared to approach for rescue.

The fire burned unrestrainedly for a whole night like this, turning the mansion, which was still quite grand during the day, into a pile of black ruins.People who waited outside the mansion overnight or woke up after returning to their cages, wandered slowly among the ruins, looking for survivors without any hope.They lamented the ill-fated fate of the people in the mansion, and lamented the warmth and coldness of the world and the impermanence of the world, but they didn't realize that they were also the ones who stood by and watched, even though they were really powerless at the time.

The fire was extinguished and the people left, leaving only the sword and the scorched objects in the ruins of the study.

Some people in the house are sighing, some are frowning, but some are rejoicing, some are rejoicing; outside the house, some are crying, some are running for their lives; but some are laughing and some are playing.The burning of a house, the passing of a father, seems to be not worth mentioning for the normal functioning of this world.

On the side of the neighborhood, in a corner, a boy in ragged clothes was eating steamed buns that he stole from nowhere, if he looked carefully, he might still see two tears flowing down his black cheeks Mark of.

The boy's head suddenly lifted, he looked around vigilantly, and then ran away.He ran and ran, into the dark, into the desert; he stopped abruptly, and found himself in a dead-end alley in despair.The sound of footsteps and metal rubbing gradually approached, and he couldn't help shaking.

"Run away, I have been fleeing for more than ten days, why don't you run away now?" Four figures appeared in the alley: two were blocking the exit, swinging their knives in their hands; wall.

"I don't even know what you want!" the boy yelled, tearing up, "You killed Daddy and now you're killing me...I...I don't know anything at all! Why? Why !! Daddy... Daddy is a good man, why did you kill him? Why?!"

"Hmph, before we do anything, the revenge for killing our father is all on us." The man on the top of the wall said to his companion.

"Isn't this scary? Thanks to such a brat, we have been searching for more than ten days." The four of them slowly approached the boy with their knives in hand.

The boy ignored him and cried by himself. He waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for the continuation of the incident.He shivered and rubbed his eyes, but the four people disappeared.He was about to run out of the alley in both astonishment and joy, but he was frightened by a voice behind him and his feet left the ground.

"You little boy, I saved you, and you plan to slap your ass and leave without even saying thank you?" In the innermost part of the alley stood a muscular white-haired old man.

"You... who are you... why did you save me? Could it be because of that thing that you saved me?"

"Hey, you little brat, you're so unreasonable!" The old man tugged at the beard that grew to his neck, "How can you tell grandpa to do such a thing of looting? I counted my fingers today and found that there was a bloody disaster here. This is how you came here to save your life with good intentions, and you repay me like this?"

"Grandfather of God's Fortune? Who is Grandpa of God's Fortune?"

"..." The corner of the old man's mouth twitched, "Who in this world doesn't know that I am an omniscient old man..."

"You know martial arts?" He mercilessly interrupted the long speech that the old man was about to start.

"...If not, how did I save you? Could it be that Grandpa scared the bad guys away with my breath of immortality?" Seeing the boy lift up the ragged corner of his robe and was about to kneel, he My heart skipped a beat, "Hey, don't kneel, don't kneel. But don't make any plans to let me accept you as a disciple. I swear to God that I will only accept one disciple in this life, and this disciple is in the capital. Just hang around, she's not you."

"..." The boy pouted, seeing that the tears were about to fall again.

"Don't cry, don't cry, I'll try my best to make a fortune for you, okay?" The old man pretended to play with his fingers and said, "Well... go to the capital, run to the capital. In the mountains on the outskirts of Beijing, you will meet See a young man with a sword and a noble lady in white, and they will be your nobles."

The boy still looked at the old man with burning eyes.

"What are you looking at, grandpa, I saved you just now, will I still hurt you now?" He took out his purse from his arms and threw it to the boy, "here, the travel expenses."
