The terrain of Qixing Town is long and narrow, and it was built along the trend of mountains and rivers. It was originally a good place surrounded by mountains and rivers, but now the streets and alleys are full of dead bones, desolate and desolate.

In order to finish what Zhu Xuan told him as soon as possible, Yu Sheng used his inner breath to probe all the way, and finally found a few sporadic people in the southernmost courtyard. After he informed Zhu Xuan, several people hurried over.

When they arrived at the place, they found out that the rest of the dozen or so people in the town had gathered here. At a glance, only the little girl, Ah Huan, was able to move freely.

Yu Sheng saw that Zhu Xuan's expression was a little off, so he stepped forward and asked in a low voice if it was because of the curse seal.It was only after mentioning this that he remembered that there was still such a thing, but after feeling it carefully, he felt that there was nothing unusual, so he shook his head slightly.

Jing Tunan first stepped into a house in the courtyard. Most of the people inside were old and weak women and children. When he opened the last door, he saw a few young but seriously injured men.

Ah Huan has not been idle since he came in, he ran in and out like a spinning top, and a grandma came out of a room and said tremblingly:

"Don't run away, my grandma will do it, why did you go out for so long today?"

A Huan stopped abruptly, and pointed to the few people standing in the courtyard.Grandma squinted her eyes and watched for a long time, her voice was hoarse for a long time, but she couldn't say a word, she knelt down slowly along the door frame, and then covered her eyes with a pair of dead wood hands:

"What are you doing here, people here are going to die, hurry up and go..."

Zhu Xuan sighed softly, stepped forward and held Grandma's hand and said softly:

"You get up first..."

Zhu Xuan squatted down, unable to say a word of comfort.For ordinary people, life and death may be the two most dramatic things in this life, but once they become as common as trampling an ant to death, it will be a catastrophe for any living person.

Ah Huan dropped the earthen pot in his hand, and ran over to help Grandma up after pulling and tugging.Zhu Xuan said:

"Don't worry, we will find a way." After speaking, I felt empty and mixed.

After A Huan told the dozen or so people one by one, they dared to take a look.At the side, Jing Tunan had sneaked into the kitchen at some point, and A Huan, who didn't know how to coax him, followed him laughing and laughing for a long time. Zhu Xuan almost looked at this man with admiration.

Yu Sheng remained silent as usual, only when those people asked cautiously, would he struggle to pull out a stiff and unnatural smile.

After tossing and tossing for a long time, the sky darkened. After these people drank some porridge with few grains of rice, they all retreated into the room and kept silent.

Ah Huan followed Jing Tunan to make trouble all afternoon, and was taken to wash her face clean, so she looked like a beautiful woman and was buried in ashes every day.At night, a few of them randomly found a room to enter, but none of them lay down to rest.

Yu Sheng took advantage of the bright moonlight to look at the two of them for a moment, then said softly and slowly:

"These people were all injured, with varying degrees of severity, but it can be seen that they were not fatal at first..." He took a deep look at Jing Tunan tentatively and cautiously, "And that child...Senior Brother Jing... ..."

"It's okay, be blunt."

"They should all be injured by the monsters who escaped from the Northern Wilderness, and they are the few survivors, but those monsters are full of resentment, and once they are injured, they are no different from death.

When resentment enters the body, one cannot feel any pain, but the anger will gradually fade away, and finally..."

The long silence in the room made everyone a little suffocated, and there would be a few shrill birdsong from time to time outside the window.After a while, Zhu Xuan cleared his throat and asked:

"No way at all?"

"Um……"

The room fell into silence for a while, and a needle could be heard.

Jing Tunan took out the black jade gourd, and when he brought it to his mouth, he realized that there was no more wine in it. After taking it back embarrassingly, he said in a deep voice:

"Junior brother is right. There is indeed no remedy. Life and death are destiny. Although it sounds absurd, it is not unreasonable. It is just a speck of dust in the sea of ​​suffering. You don't need to worry too much."

Zhu Xuan was not an ignorant person, he felt a little sad in his heart, but he also understood what Jing Tunan meant.

This is the suffering of the common people...

Life and death are in the hands of the heavens, not oneself, and one can only seek peace and happiness in one's life, and believe in the way of heaven all one's life, and one can follow the way of heaven.

"I've seen it today. Youyi is not here. I'm afraid that after leaving this place, they will flee everywhere. I will inform Qianqiu Temple and ask them to send more people to investigate. Therefore, I can't stay here for long, and I have to leave soon. .”

The night was silent, and the three of them did not close their eyes. When the morning light broke, they heard a slight knock on the door.

"Brother, grandma made some cakes and asked you to come and eat some."

Jing Tunan stepped forward to open the door, bent down to pick up Ah Huan, and walked out, asking as he walked:

"Oh, there are cakes to eat, did Ah Huan make them?"

"Yes, Ah Huan specially made it."

Zhu Xuan didn't go out the door directly, he looked down at his blood-stained clothes, feeling a little embarrassed.Yu Sheng immediately handed over a black cloak, turned it to the front and tied it tightly, then opened the door and walked out together.

When they arrived yesterday, it was sunny in winter, but recently it was a sunny day. A dozen or so people crowded together around two small wooden tables, holding steaming porridge in their hands. It is a happy breakfast for the whole family to get up early.

With just one glance, Zhu Xuan knew what Yu Sheng's words meant.Most of these people suffered injuries of varying degrees, some were on the legs, some were on the back of the neck, and the younger-looking men were the most seriously injured, with blood constantly oozing from their chests.

"What are you two doing standing there? Come here."

"Okay, here we come."

The cake is hard and teeth-breaking, and the porridge is like clear water.It was rare to have such a happy meal with a clear soup and little water, and those people whose faces were gradually dying all grinned cheerfully.

After this meal, Zhu Xuan stood in the courtyard and looked carefully at the bricks and tiles here, as well as the smear of green sprouting desperately in the cracks of the bricks. For a moment, he suddenly thought that winter had passed.

That afternoon, Jing Tunan received a letter saying:

Xuanyang wars broke out everywhere, thousands of refugees, the imperial city was destroyed, and there was great chaos.

Zhu Xuan took a glance and turned around, already understanding what to do next.

"There is Qianqiu Temple in the East China Sea, and they also went directly to Shuzhong to investigate the Yaoyi. Don't worry about Nanjiang, with the ancestor and master here, Shuzhong is now a mess."

"Can you find out who it is?" Zhu Xuan asked.

"It's like looking for a needle in a haystack... It's true that I have no skills to separate myself. I can take a step at a time. I will go to Qianqiu for a visit in the near future. You stay in Shuzhong and wait for me."

This afternoon, several people had already decided to leave here and go their separate ways.

When he got under the city wall, Zhu Xuan turned his head and glanced at Ah Huan who was standing not far away, feeling sad for a moment that he couldn't do anything.He remembered that he had asked many people: What is the practice?

For ascension?For the world?

I thought it was difficult to ascend, but now I feel that the world is difficult.

"Brother - remember to come back!"

"It's too late, Ah Huan won't be able to see you guys!"

This sound echoed in the empty alley, and the three finally stopped talking.When he walked far away, he could still see Ah Huan's figure on the city wall when he turned his head. After knowing that he could no longer see clearly after walking for a long time, Jing Tunan bid farewell to the two and went directly to the East China Sea.

Zhu Xuan and Yu Sheng didn't stay long, and after getting a general understanding, they directly set their destination on the former imperial city——Jingfeng.

Zhu Xuan didn't ask Yu Sheng, but he could roughly guess that this person was actually the same as himself, and he was very unfamiliar with Xuanyang Kingdom.No matter how he and his family came to the Northern Wilderness 15 years ago, how hard they survived.No matter why Zhu Xuan was abandoned in the ice and snow.

Now that the flames of war have ignited the Golden Palace, everything will be annihilated.

Zhu Xuan took Yu Sheng with him and didn't set off immediately. Although Yu Sheng didn't know, he just let him come in silence.After seeing Zhu Xuan set up formations in succession, he probably got a clue.

A moment later, a bit of ink flashed by the gray-white sky, it was Lingyu Crane.

Lingyu Crane only passed slowly from the low sky, Zhu Xuan got up and jumped on it, and when he looked back, Yu Sheng followed him up, staring at him intently.

Zhu Xuan waved his hands and sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, and Yu Sheng also poked to the side like the other idiots.After a while, Zhu Xuan couldn't sit still, raised his eyelids and gritted his teeth, saying:

"Yu Pingwan, tell me honestly, did you learn medicine refining from Senior Brother Zhuqing?"

Yu Sheng suddenly heard Zhu Xuan call his name, and there was a little hidden resistance in his heart, he leaned forward, put on an innocent expression and frowned and said:

"Huh? I was discovered by my brother."

"How long?"

"Not long ago, since you were injured three years ago."

Well, Zhu Xuan couldn't go on talking anymore.

In the end, people are all for themselves. He thought carefully about the past three years, Yu Sheng practiced sword every day, and he never failed. He even found time to follow Zhu Qing to memorize a lot of medicine books, which was really hard work.Although I have been tortured enough by those poisonous medicines, in the end, it is for myself.

Zhu Xuan closed his eyes again, and said in a muffled voice:

"No wonder you are so aware of their injuries and symptoms in Seven Star Town these few days."

Yu Sheng moved a little closer to Zhu Xuan, and lightly pressed a palm on the curse seal on Zhu Xuan's back. Zhu Xuan was concentrating on this, and almost jumped off the Lingyu Crane, only to be pressed by Yu Sheng's other hand. back.

"What are you doing..."

"The scorching heat of the curse seal is the first symptom, if you don't relieve it, you will burn up, brother."

Zhu Xuan's evil flame was caught off guard and pinched fiercely again.He couldn't relieve the curse seal by himself, it would only cause the spiritual power to collide and mess up in his body.

"Senior brother, we don't know what's going on in Jingfeng City. Is it okay to go directly?"

In Yu Sheng's words, Zhu Xuan sighed silently:

"Since Jingfeng City is an imperial city, it must have a large population. Coupled with the turmoil of the war, the city must be strictly guarded. Brother Zhuqing said that due to too many deaths and injuries, plagues frequently occur in the past. gone."

The temperature of Yu Sheng's palm easily penetrated through the layers of Zhu Xuan's clothes, and the spiritual power easily relieved the unbearable burning sensation on the curse mark. Zhu Xuan didn't have to tense all over his body, and for a moment he forgot that Yu Sheng's hand was still there. Behind his back, he spoke to himself.

"If you are in one corner, you only have one corner of your heart. No matter how wide the Tianmen is, it is not as good as this world. Now that I think about it, I have been pursuing soaring all my life. Why?"

Yu Sheng pursed his lips, turned his head and said seriously:

"Hmm...why? Senior brother once taught me the principle of 'Heaven has no relatives', I still remember it in my heart, so it seems that I can't control the common people, just pick one person and take it to heart?"

Zhu Xuan nodded, and then he slapped him with a backhand in a daze:

"It's a big deal, put yourself at ease before talking about others."

Yu Sheng lowered his head and smiled, withdrew his hand and rubbed his nose without answering, thinking:

"The person who doesn't care about yourself the most is you, you are not ashamed to speak out."

When he thought of this, his heart suddenly felt warm, and then this warm current flowed along the meridians, warming every drop of blood in his body.Unable to hold back this feeling at all, he turned his head and took a deep breath, murmuring in his heart:

"With such a small heart, it's not just right to let someone alone..."

Zhu Xuan was arranged for a long time without knowing it, and they rowed all the way through the central and western parts of Sichuan, heading straight for Jingfeng City in the central part.
