Unscrupulous neighbors

Hang Rui has no parents since he was a child. Although he has envied and longed for it, family affection is still invisible to him. There was a moment when he was willing to give everything in exchange.

Of course, for Hang Rui now, this desire is not so urgent. On the one hand, it is because he has grown up and has the ability to live independently. He even thought about forming a family with others to make up for the lack of emotion. On the one hand, Ying Chen's appearance is just like the last piece of the puzzle, no more, no less, just enough to fill his world.

What Ying Chen gave to herself was not only love, but also affection like a family member.Let Hang Rui experience the warmth that he has never had for more than 20 years, and it is precisely because of this that Hang Rui feels precious.

So at this moment, when Hang Rui heard that someone would rather give up their blood relationship and choose to compete for power, it was completely incomprehensible.

Before, Hang Rui didn't know why Lingzhi and Chu Bai grew up together, why their relationship became so bad later, now in this memory, Hang Rui seems to understand a little bit.

The two once carefree teenagers both lost their relatives in this incident, and their mentality must have undergone drastic changes. From this moment on, they no longer have the right to be innocent, and the ups and downs forced them to grow up quickly. This kind of growth will inevitably prevent them from learning many things in the process.

"Then your father..." Lingzhi wanted to ask if he was still alive. After all, the life and death of the king was related to the safety of the entire tribe, but when he spoke, he felt that this question was too cruel. For them, it was just their leader. However, for Chu Bai, that is his only father, his irreplaceable family member, and his last family member in this world.

"Father was stabbed by the eldest brother, but fortunately the second brother was in time... so the injury did not hurt the heart." Chu Bai wiped away tears and said with a choked voice, "But the witch doctor said that trauma is easy to heal, but heart injury is hard to heal. Afraid of my father..."

Lingzhi understood what Chubai meant, so he didn't ask any more questions.

"Then... what about Lord Shenwu?" Lingzhi regretted asking, he wanted to know, but was afraid to hear it with his own ears, "My lord... I just heard the villagers say that Lord Shenwu... Said he..." Ling Zhi tightly tugged on Chu Bai's sleeve, tears were rolling in his eyes, but he tried not to cry, "Tell me, is it true..."

Chu Bai looked at Lingzhi, wanted to speak a few times and finally took it back, finally gritted his teeth and told Lingzhi the truth.

"The leader of the Ba tribe brought not only thousands of elite soldiers, but also a ferocious beast. If it wasn't for the Lord God and Witch...I'm afraid everyone would have become its food now."

"What about my lord?" Ling Zhi pushed Chu Bai away, didn't even notice that he had dropped the things in his hand, turned around and ran towards the ancestral temple.

"Lingzhi!" Chu Bai picked up the strangely shaped mushroom on the ground, but failed to grab Lingzhi's hand immediately, watching him run away.

When Chu Bai wanted to chase him, he was stopped by the guards who came from Wangcheng.

"Third Prince, the king has woken up and is anxious to see you, please hurry back with us!"

Chu Bai felt that his head and body had been separated, he wanted to go back to see his father quickly in his mind, but his body turned uncontrollably in the direction where Lingzhi ran away.

"I……"

"Third Prince! You are the only child in the king now, please... hurry back!"

One side is the only relative, the other side is the only friend.

In the end, family affection defeated friendship.

Chu Bai said to the guard: "I'll go back right away, you go to the ancestral temple to find Lingzhi, and you must bring him to see me!"

The guard immediately said: "I'm afraid there are spies from the Ba clan in the city. It's too dangerous for you to be alone. I'll escort you back first, and then go to the ancestral temple."

"No!" Chu Bai had a bad feeling in his heart, and without waiting for the guard to say anything, he said sharply, "Go right away!"

"……Yes."

When Lingzhi returned to the small courtyard where he usually lived, everything was as it was when he left, even the medicine boiled in the medicine pot was not missing.

"My lord! I'm back, where are you!"

Lingzhi came out of the small courtyard, shouting and searching all the way, but he couldn't find that handsome figure anywhere.

In the end, Lingzhi stopped in front of the ancestral temple. This is a place where only Lord Shenwu and himself can come, and even the noble king cannot be offended.

If not here, if not even here...

No, Lord God Witch must be here!

The ancestral temple was empty, only the totems on the wall shone faintly.

No, not even here.

Lingzhi recalled what the villagers said, that Lord Shenwu really exhausted his soul to suppress the monsters.

Lingzhi's legs went limp, as if all his strength had been emptied, and he slumped down in the middle of the hall, looking helplessly at his hands, such thin and small hands, unable to hold anything, not even the most precious thing can slip through your fingers.

At this moment, Ling Zhi hated himself for not being strong enough to help Lord Shenwu when he needed it. As the only heir of Lord Shenwu, he didn't even accompany him at a critical moment.

If he had known that this would be the case, he would not have forced the adults to drink those bitter medicines, but would have found the sweetest fruit for him.

But it's too late to say anything now.

There is no such thing as a sage witch in this world anymore...

The tears that have been holding on for a long time, collapsed at this moment.

Lingzhi knelt on the ground, huddled into a ball, and the cry echoed throughout the empty ancestral temple, as if even the pain was doubled.

Hang Rui felt the wetness on his face, as if he felt the same feeling as Lingzhi. It was obviously like watching a movie looking back at other people's memories, but his emotions were uncontrollable.

Because Hang Rui knows that this is completely different from the movie. When history is not the straightforward words in the textbook, but all the feelings of a person, the understatement of life and death is unforgettable.

Ying Chen held Hang Rui's hand tightly and hugged him in his arms. Although they were indifferent by nature, the natural growth environment made him unable to understand why these short-lived and sentimental mortals were happy, for what? He was sad for something, but he could feel Hang Rui's feelings, and the bitterness made Ying Chen feel heavy.

"Let's go find Yubi?" Ying Chen couldn't bear to let Hang Rui continue watching, "These things have already happened, and looking at them will only add to the sadness. The most important thing right now is to find Yubi, and we can't let Wuwu snatch it away." ahead of us."

Hang Rui woke up suddenly after hearing Ying Chen's words.

That's right, now is not the time to look back on the past, the most important thing now is that they have to find the six weapons, completely open the Taiping formation, let Ying Chen rescue the sister-in-law, and then re-arrange the Taiping formation.

Thinking of this, Hang Rui wanted to punch himself, and almost fell into the illusion.

"Let's find a way to get out!" After Hang Rui finished speaking, he glanced at Lingzhi nostalgicly. This glance was terrible. He saw Lingzhi who didn't know when he stood up, and drew a long gash on his arm with a knife , The bright red blood stained his pure white sleeves red, it looked shocking, and the steps he was about to take just froze like that.

"What is he going to do?" Hang Rui looked at the small body, as if he was about to fall every step he took, and couldn't help worrying, turning his head to ask Ying Chen, "What is Lingzhi going to do?"

Ying Chen took a look and understood it, and said: "This is a forbidden technique that only gods and witches can do. He wants to exchange his life for that person."

"What?" Hang Rui's eyes widened. If he hadn't been grabbed by Ying Chen tightly, he would have rushed to stop him.

"Don't worry, it's definitely not successful." Ying Chen's expression was indifferent. In fact, this is the most common expression on Ying Chen's face. He only has a vivid expression when facing Hang Rui. "If he succeeds, he won't There is now you."

Hang Rui was stunned for a moment before realizing that this was a story that had been spoiled a long time ago.

Even though Hang Rui wanted to continue watching, he didn't forget what was the most important thing in front of him. Knowing that Lingzhi would be fine at the moment, Hang Rui could feel a little relieved.

"Let's go!" Hang Rui tugged at Ying Chen's hand, "Let's find a way to get out."

Ying Chen nodded, changed a piece of dragon scale from his hand, and threw it towards the place where Lingzhi was. Since this is the memory left by Lingzhi on the six weapons, the breakthrough point is the Lingzhi in the environment. If you open the way, you will naturally find the way out.

However, when the pale golden dragon scale was close to Lingzhi, it bounced back in an instant. If it wasn't for Ying Chen's quick eyes and quick hands, Hang Rui might have a big bump on his head.

"What's going on?" Hang Rui had also seen Ying Chen ask Di Po to use dragon scales to open the way for the undead before. As long as he saw that scene with his own eyes, he would never forget it. It was definitely not the reaction in front of him, so he turned his head and looked at Ying Chen asked in confusion, "Why did it bounce back?"

Ying Chen glanced at the dragon scale that bounced back with scratches, and then at Lingzhi, which was gradually becoming blurred, and said clearly, "Because this is not Lingzhi's memory."

"Whose is that?"

"Chu cypress."

"what?"

Ying Chen pointed at Lingzhi, looked at Hang Rui and said, "Look carefully, Lingzhi's movements are very unnatural, not like the way of the gods and witches, which means that this part of the content is likely to be known by Chu Bai later. After this incident, it was a process imagined, not that Lingzhi really did it at the time."

indeed.

The more Hang Rui looked at it, the more awkward he felt. Although he still couldn't fully grasp the blessing rituals of the Lingzhi Society, he was sure that among all the spells, there would never be such stiff and weird movements that were close to the same hands and feet.

Surely Ying Chen guessed that at the same time, Hang Rui suddenly thought of something, held Ying Chen's hand tightly, and told Ying Chen all the things that came to mind.

"You said that the one who instigated the eldest prince to rebel...could it be Wu Wu? He is the best at deceiving ordinary people to confuse people's hearts, that's why the eldest prince will collude with outsiders to rebel! Otherwise, it is completely unreasonable. Who would choose to cooperate with outsiders? Aren’t you afraid of attracting wolves into the house in the end? Only Chu Wu, he doesn’t care who wins or loses at all, as long as mortals are unlucky, it is the greatest happiness for him, whether the Ba tribe wiped out Chu Bai’s tribe, or vice versa, it doesn’t make any difference to him !"

The more Hang Rui talked, the more he felt that his guess was correct, and excitedly said to Ying Chen: "That's why Chu Bai was able to get the stone that closed the 梼杌 later, he believed his lies, was bewitched by him, and finally sold his soul to 梼杌!"

The author has something to say: I didn't buy that bottle of color ink, it looks so annoying, so I don't want to buy it!
