Above the market, a carriage drove slowly toward the main road. An old man sat in front of the carriage, like a sculpture. He was driving the carriage and was about to leave.
In the back of the car, there was a man and a woman sitting. The man was a human being. He was wearing commoner clothes and dressed like a village man. The little girl next to her is only four or five years old. She has bright eyes and white teeth, and is a little girl.
"Tie my hair!"
The little girl called out and turned her back to the people and trees. Rencaomu held up a pair of rough hands covered with calluses, but very skillfully tied up the little girl's hair.
In the past few years, he has pierced the little girl countless times and has long been very skilled. The little girl took the bronze mirror and looked at it, and said with a smile: "It's great. Uncle Caomu's hair is the most beautiful!"
Rencaomu said: "Little Haoyue also needs to learn how to tie her hair. All girls' families have to learn this."
"I don't want it!" Baili Haoyue brushed her off and said, "I want Uncle Caomu to tie my hair for the rest of my life!"
Rencaomu shook his head helplessly. In the past few years, he took Baili Haoyue and Ma Ma out of Taoyuan Villa. He did not rush to the Daqian Dynasty along the way, but traveled slowly.
For the sake of Baili Haoyue, Rencaomu announced his withdrawal from the underworld. He knew the price of exiting Hades, but he had no fear.
Chen Yanling of Taoyuan Villa also wanted to use Baili Haoyue to develop his family's power in the Daqian Dynasty, so he has been sending people to chase people and plants for so many years.
Ren Cao Mu has killed many people, but for Baili Haoyue, he would not hesitate to keep killing like this.
In order to deceive others, they did not stay in the city, but chose to spend the night in a village outside the city.
In the inn, Baili Haoyue was lying on the bed, listening to the stories told by Rencaomu, and slowly fell asleep. Rencaomu covered her with a quilt and walked out.
Outside the door, he immediately walked and sat in the corridor, saying nothing and making no sound.
Ren Cao Mu was about to go back to his room to rest when a sudden murderous aura shocked him. He turned around and looked, and in the darkness, a figure slowly walked over. He was dressed in black and covered with a cloak and a big hat, and his face was invisible.
The visitor smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for so many years. I thought you had lost your vigilance as a killer. Unexpectedly, I underestimated you."
Rencaomu said coldly: "You are really haunted!"
"You should know the rules and what price you have to pay if you want to betray Hades!"
Rencaomu said: "I told you that when I finish my work, I will naturally go to the underworld to accept the punishment. There is no need for you to come and die one after another!"
"What you said makes sense," the man nodded: "But that's not what I'm here for today. Someone wants to buy your life, and I'm here for the money."
"Chen family," Rencaomu sneered: "In that case, there is nothing more to say!"
As soon as the words fell, two murderous intentions intertwined in the void. In the night, two figures kept colliding. The last stream of blood spilled into the sky. The dead body of the man in black fell to the ground, and his body disappeared.
Ren Cao Mu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the inn, but Baili Haoyue was missing. He immediately walked and stood at the door, looking at the broken window. The cold wind blew into the room and chilled the hearts of people and plants.
"hateful!"
Rencaomu knew he had been tricked, so he didn't care to leave immediately and hurriedly chased him out.
Under the darkness of night, several people were walking in the air, and one of them held a hundred-mile bright moon in his arms. Baili Haoyue kept struggling, but couldn't break free. He had no choice but to pray for people and trees to come and save him as soon as possible.
As the sky grew brighter, several people took Baili Haoyue to a cliff, where several old men and a middle-aged man stood. The middle-aged man with a stern face was none other than Chen Yanling, the head of the Chen family. Behind them are the elders of the Chen family, but most of their cultivation levels are only at the Lingxu realm or the Yingchong realm.
Several people came closer, presented Baili Haoyue and said, "Master, we have brought this person back."
Chen Yanling looked at Baili Haoyue and seemed to see Chen Qian when she was a child. She nodded and said: "Very good, return to Taoyuan Villa immediately!"
"yes!"
Just then, a horse's cry came from afar, and a horse-drawn carriage came galloping towards them, which was surprising.
When the Chen family's attention was attracted by the immediate departure, a figure rushed towards him, the blade of his palm pierced a person's chest, stretched out his hand to grab Baili Haoyue, and retreated violently.
Baili Haoyue looked up at the familiar face and finally couldn't help crying: "Uncle Caomu!"
"Human grass and trees!"
Chen Yanling was furious, and the power in his palms condensed, and the Qingmu Avenue turned into a towering tree, shaking down people and trees.
Rencaomu made a backhand palm, and the force of his palm struck through the void, shattering the giant tree into pieces. Chen Yanling couldn't help but take several steps back and was almost seriously injured.
Behind him, five clan elders, each holding a Taoist weapon, rushed forward, surrounded the people and trees, and formed a formation to resist.
"Uncle Caomu..."
Baili Haoyue clutched Ren Caosu's clothes tightly, with a look of fear on her face. Ren Cao Mu lowered his head and said softly: "Haoyue, don't be afraid, as long as your uncle is here, no one can hurt you!"
As he spoke, the aura around Mancaomu surged, and invisible power spread around, and then he rushed toward one of the clan elders like a ghost.
The clan elder was unable to dodge, and a palm blade broke through the protective aura and pierced into the chest. The clan elder died immediately and the formation was broken.
The other four clan elders were also driven back, and as a result, people and vegetation rushed in, killing two more people.
The remaining two clan elders covered their chests and used Taoist weapons to fight, but they were no match for human beings. They were beaten back one after another and died from the sword.
Chen Yanling looked at the corpses on the ground with a gloomy face and shouted: "Ren Cao Mu, I, Taoyuan Villa, will fight with you until death!"
Rencaomu hugged Baili Haoyue and replied calmly: "You are Chen Qian's father, I will not kill you. It's just that Chen Qian left a last word and cannot hand over this child to you. Please don't blame me, Mr. Chen." .”
After saying that, Rencaomu turned around and left, and immediately came to the carriage. Rencaomu hugged Baili Haoyue and got into the carriage, and left Juechen.
After he left, Chen Yanling was shaky and almost collapsed. Fortunately, someone on the side supported him and asked: "Master, what should we do now?"
Chen Yanling looked at the corpses of the five clan elders and sighed: "Go back. After all, our Taoyuan Villa is no match for others. It's just that our Chen family must avenge this!"
…………
In the blink of an eye, another three years have passed. Rencaomu helped Baili Haoyue practice and successfully entered the Huiling Realm. They finally arrived at Taiyue City, the capital of the Daqian Dynasty.
Walking on the bustling streets, the bright moon is like an oriole, singing happily around people and trees. She was curious about everything, and finally bought a cartload of things and took them back to the inn.
Rencaomu knew that this was the last time he would go shopping with Baili Haoyue, and he would satisfy all the demands.
As early as when Rencaomu and Baili Haoyue went shopping, they immediately took the letter to the imperial city.
Not long after the two returned to the inn, the royal driver came to the door. Gao He, the eunuch and eunuch, smiled and said to Baili Haoyue: "Your Highness, my servant has been ordered to take you back to the palace!"
Baili Haoyue had long known that she was the princess of Daqian, but she didn't feel the slightest bit happy. She knew that becoming a princess meant being separated from people and trees. Therefore, she asked the three of them not to walk too fast, and it took many years before they arrived at Taiyue City.
Baili Haoyue looked at the people and trees and said, "Why are you so anxious to send me out?"
Rencaomu said: "I promised your mother that I would protect you. You are the princess of the Daqian Dynasty, and no one will harm you. If you continue to follow me, I'm afraid it will harm you."
"My mother?" Baili Haoyue smiled sadly: "You only mention her in front of me. Am I still not as good as her? I just ask you, what do you think of me?"
"this……"
Rencaomu stared at the bright moon for a long time, and finally fell into silence.
Seeing that he was silent, Baili Haoyue nodded clearly, sat down and said, "Make me a cup of tea."
Rencaomu said: "Don't you like tea the most?"
"But I want to drink now."
Hearing this, Rencaomu took a cup from the inn and made tea for Baili Haoyue. Baili Haoyue looked at the cup of tea, but did not drink it. Instead, he said, "What should I do if I can't find you when I want to drink tea in the future?"
Before anyone could answer, Baili Haoyue said: "You stay in Taiyue City. Since my mother wants you to protect me, you haven't completed your task yet. In Taiyue City, I can find you at any time. , make me tea!”
After saying that, Baili Haoyue got up and got on the Luan Jia, following Gao He into the imperial city.
The man sat dumbly looking at the tea cup on the table, his expression unclear whether he was happy or worried, full of complexity...
…………
Having said this, He Zudao took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.
Ye Ling asked: "What happened next?"
He Zudaoyan said: "Later? Later, Ren Cao Mu set up the signboard of the Nine Dynasties Tea Shop in the town and started selling tea. The eldest princess also came to taste it every day. It's a pity that Ren Cao Mu is so hard-hearted. , I haven’t kept him warm for so many years. That’s why the scene you know happened!”
After hearing this, Ye Ling sighed. Speaking of which, this man's heart was all about the deceased Chen Qian. How could he accept Chen Qian's daughter?
"Good fortune plays tricks on people, God plays tricks on people!"
Ye Ling stood up, said goodbye to He Zudao, and left for the Xu Kingdom.
After pushing the door open, Qing Yi and Song Ming came out to greet them, took the gifts from Ye Ling's hands, and ran over to share them with each other with a smile. After all, it is the nature of a child, always naive and interesting.
Hua Xinfeng also walked out of the house and asked with a smile: "Ye Zi, is everything going well?"
Ye Ling nodded and said to Hua Xinfeng: "The Qishan matter is over. Next, I will take Qingyi and Song Ming to Liangzhou to say goodbye to several friends there. I will leave Taizhou on the way. It’s Yuecheng.”
Hua Xinfeng nodded and said: "Ye Zi, there is one more thing. My father wants to see you."
When Ye Ling heard this, he couldn't help but frowned and asked, "What does this mean?"
Before he finished speaking, two figures, one purple and one green, appeared above the void, it was Lei Rong and Feng Qing.
The two landed in the yard, Feng Qing smiled and said: "Little friend Ye, we meet again."
Ye Ling didn't have a good impression of either of them. He just politely raised his hand and asked, "If I don't go, will the two elders use force?"
Lei Rong snorted coldly, and Feng Qing said with a smile: "Actually, it's not President Hua who wants to see you, but someone else. That person said there is news about your third brother Wu Qing, so you won't refuse to go. .”
"Third brother!"
Ye Ling heard this and said to Hua Xinfeng: "Now that you and I are gone, what will happen to Qing Yi and Song Ming?"
Hua Xinfeng said: "I will let senior Feng Qing stay here to take care of the two of them. You don't have to worry about Ye Zi."
Ye Ling nodded, went over to explain to Qing Yi and Song Ming, and then left with Hua Xinfeng and Lei Rong.
