Liu Nian relaxed when he saw He Ling's nodding, his tone became calm, and he said: "Everyone, the matter is over, do you still want to stay here?"
Everyone was still in shock. After hearing Liu Nian's words, many monks quickly suppressed the magic power exerted on Liu Nian.
No one seemed to have expected that things would change so quickly. Liu Nian, who had been stubbornly refusing to admit his guilt, suddenly confessed!
Is it possible...
Is it because of her?
Everyone turned their attention to He Ling in unison.
Liu Nian's physical condition was not good at this time. His clothes were in great damage and his whole body was covered with scorch marks caused by lightning. Even if he didn't use magic, there was pain in his body. Liu Nian struggled to stand up, and his posture was obviously shaking. .
Liu Nian dragged a half-unzipped charred robe, walked slowly to Liangran who was lying on the ground crying, and bent down to carry the coffin onto his shoulders.
Liu Nian didn't stop for a moment, then walked to He Ling's side, picked up another coffin, and walked slowly towards the main entrance of the hall.
In the eyes of He Ling and Liangran, Liu Nian was carrying not only the coffin, but also the responsibility.
He Ling and Liangran knew very well that they had unshirkable responsibilities for incurring divine punishment in their sect. If they had not asked Liu Nian for help, Liu Nian would not have been punished at all.
He Ling looked at Liu Nian's embarrassed back and stood there for a long time.
Did he bear all the blame alone so as not to implicate me?
With so many injuries on his body, does it still hurt?
He Ling's eyes couldn't help but get a little moist. This feeling of protection made her little heart beat wildly. She felt that what attracted her to Liu Nian was not only the wizard's weird pharmacological knowledge, but also some other things. thing.
Liu Nian turned around and smiled, his tone as calm as water: "Please discuss the solution and pass it on to me. I will wait for notification on Haoqi Mountain. Whether it is life or death, imprisonment or expulsion, I, Liu Nian, will never defend myself. .”
Looking at Liu Nian's leaving figure, all the monks present felt a little lonely. They obviously won, so why do they feel that the person who took all the blame was the real winner?
Bai Qiuming looked at Liu Nian with more appreciation.
Looking at his previous rogue behavior, it is hard to imagine that he would take all the responsibility.
Bai Qiuming turned his gaze to his daughter, feeling a little more sad.
It seems that He Ling and Heavenly Punishment are also involved.
main peak hall
Bai Xingqie dismissed a group of elders. Many of the elders wanted to ask He Ling why the incident of heavenly punishment started, but they were too embarrassed to speak. After all, Liu Nian's confession was very obvious.
Liu Nian took the initiative to plead guilty without making any rebuttal because he didn't want anyone to question He Ling.
Outside the main hall, Liu Nian walked away slowly carrying two coffins. Although he could not use all his magic power, as a golden elixir monk, Liu Nian's physical fitness was also incomparable. He carried two coffins and walked effortlessly.
"Da Nian, what should we do next?"
"You don't have to ask, I must go home, pack my things, and run away! Otherwise, why would I bear so much debt by myself? This debt cannot be paid off by one person!"
Under the words of the leader Bai Xingque, everyone in the main peak hall dispersed, leaving only three people, namely the leader Bai Xingque, the punishment elder Bai Qiuming, and the good boy He Ling.
Bai Xingqie already had a kind smile on his face, while Bai Qiuming had a fierce look on his face. On the other hand, He Ling's expression was angry and a little sad.
"Why do you all bully him? He obviously did nothing wrong at all. He is covered in injuries. How can you treat him like this..." He Ling defended Liu Nian and shed tears as he spoke. down.
Bai Qiuming and Bai Xingqie, who were preparing to play the red face and the bad face, saw He Ling, who had always been well-behaved and sensible, crying, and suddenly panicked.
In the center of the hall, He Ling was sitting on the ground, looking up to the sky and crying, so pitifully that the pear blossoms were raining with rain.
The same scene happened once in Haoqi Mountain, but the culprit at that time, Liu Ernian, looked proud!
And now, the two people who made He Ling cry, Bai Xingqie and Bai Qiuming, were half-kneeling on the ground, repeatedly comforting them!
"Xiao Heling, please don't cry. Daddy has been speaking for Liu Nian. It's your uncle who keeps bullying Liu Nian. Let's ignore him!"
"Uncle is bad...wuwu(இωஇ)"
"Junior brother, you are not being kind. Before today, you have been telling me bad things about Junior Nephew Liu Nian every day. You said that he has a demonic experience and cannot be reused, and that he should be punished for not performing his sect duties for a long time... wait wait wait"
"Daddy is also bad... Wuwu(ಥ﹏ಥ)"
Bai Xingjie and Bai Qiuming were taught by the same master, and their talents were quite different. When Bai Xingjie was promoted to Nascent Soul and became a sect elder, Bai Qiuming had just touched the threshold of the golden elixir and was used to being called senior brother. The two people called Liu Nian a little confusingly.
Bai Xingqie called Liu Nian his nephew and Bai Qiuming his younger brother.
Bai Qiuming calls Liu Nian his senior brother, and Bai Xingqie his senior brother.
As far as relationships are concerned, everyone has their own opinion.
Bai Qiuming felt that his seniority should be above Liu Nian, but he found inappropriate excuses to change his mind.
In the main hall, after half an hour of teasing, hurting each other, and kneeling down to beg for mercy, Bai Xingqie and Bai Qiuming finally made He Ling stop crying.
Bai Xingqie said in a serious tone: "He Ling, you have to tell the uncle what Liu Nian did, so that the uncle can help Liu Nian!"
Bai Qiuming also nodded seriously: "Yes! If we want to help Liu Nian, we must know what he did. If he really did not do anything wrong, dad can guarantee that he will not be wronged in the slightest!"
He Ling rubbed the corners of her clothes, her pretty eyebrows curled up, and she was very confused: "But, he didn't let me say it."
Bai Qiu Ming gave Bai Xingqie a look and said in a slightly frivolous tone: "Then there is nothing we can do. Liu Nian's punishment will definitely not be light."
Bai Xingqie naturally understood his junior brother's eyes and put on a look of gloating: "Since Xiao Heling doesn't want to say anything, Liu Nian is in trouble! According to the sect's rules, he may not be able to see the sun tomorrow.
Sigh...it's pitiful just thinking about it! "
The tears that He Ling had just stopped were about to come back again. Liu Nian's miserable back appeared in He Ling's mind, like an injured kitten, helpless and pitiful!
Seeing He Ling who was about to cry, Bai Xingqie and Bai Qiuming quickly averted their eyes and said sideways: "There is only one person who can help Liu Nian. Unfortunately, that person is not willing to say anything. There is nothing we can do." ”
He Ling held back her tears and said seriously: "As long as I answer your questions, he will be fine."
Bai Xingqie and Bai Qiuming looked at each other for a moment, adult smirks appeared on their faces.
Haoqi Mountain
Liu Nian gently placed the two coffins, one large and one small, in the center of the courtyard. The courtyard was full of fruity fragrance and the leaves were swaying gently, as if to welcome Liu Nian home.
Liu Nian looked around the entire Yuan Pavilion, then looked at his charred appearance, and smiled helplessly.
Haoqi Mountain was the prison that had imprisoned him for hundreds of years, and it was also his home for hundreds of years. Now it looked like home, but he was leaving.
Liu Nian opened a wooden house, which contained many stone paintings and statues. These were the products of Liu Ernian and Liu Danian's practice of mana manipulation for a year. It is said that it is practicing, but in fact it is more to pass the time and is one of the few recreational activities.
Some stones depict things in the courtyard, including flowers, fruits, and trees.
Some stones are carved with personal portraits, some standing and some lying down.
Some of them were strangely shaped. It was Liu Ernian's first time carving, and they looked very funny.
Some are quite satisfactory, and some are lifelike, which are all manifestations of Liu Ernian's progress in sculpture.
Liu Nian walked around Yuange and put many items into the storage bag. The originally small storage bag was obviously a little fat.
Liu Nian put on a new Taoist robe and washed the scorch marks on his body with water. His face was still very weak, but he was no longer embarrassed.
Liu Nian stood in the courtyard and said goodbye...and didn't move for a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, Liu Nian said: "Da Nian... I don't want to leave!"
"Er Nian, do you know what you will face if you stay?" Liu Danian's tone was a little serious, because this was the first time in more than three hundred years that Liu Danian had not listened to Liu Danian's words.
"I know, but...I just don't want to leave."
"reason?"
"I remember you once said that since you came to this world, you have never stopped missing your hometown.
Let me ask you, the hometown you miss all the time must be beautiful, right?
You said to me with a smile, you can’t remember clearly!
When you said this, I was puzzled. Why can't you remember the hometown you miss all the time?
What puzzles me even more is that although you were smiling at that time, you were smiling so sadly.
Since my master brought me to the sect, I have almost never left here.
This place feels like home to me.
I don't want to leave...
I know something bad will happen if I stay, but I still don't want to leave.
Da Nian, am I stupid? "
Liu Danian's tone was obviously angry: "Liu Ernian, you...you...you idiot.
If you don’t want to leave, you should have told me earlier!
I won’t take all the responsibility for this time on myself!
It’s not like we have to leave! "
Liu Nian thought that the inner demon would reject his idea and then scold him. This was the first time he had an opinion of his own, and he was glad his inner demon agreed.
Liu Nian let out a long and melodious call: "Brother Dayan..."
Hearing the call in this tone, Liu Danian in the consciousness space felt goosebumps all over the floor, and he cursed repeatedly: "Brother, your grandma has a leg, don't disgust me. I agreed to stay because I didn't want to leave in the first place. It has nothing to do with you!"
Obviously Liu Ernian was still moved, and was not affected by Da Nian's explanation at all. His gaze remained on the flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard.
In the consciousness space, Liu Danian received visual information from the outside world.
Inexplicable emotions emerged in my heart:
Nostalgia, reluctance, sadness, sadness, worship, admiration, entrustment for life...
Entrusted for life? ...What a mess! Why do I have this emotion?
Liu Nian looked down and saw a pair of arms hugging his ankles. The owner of the arms was a bald man with a striking cross scar on his forehead, none other than Liangran.
Liangran burst into tears and looked up at Liu Nian: "Senior Liu Nian, please let me take responsibility with you, otherwise I will never let you go!"
You bastard actually dares to come here!
...You just stole my words!
