"Hey, this kid is stuck in memories again." Ever since he followed Mu Jingyu to find the cave where he was hiding, Qin Yunchuan found that Mu Jingyu would fall into deep memories every time he walked a certain distance. Obviously, during the period when he was most helpless and dejected, the six years in the valley left a deep mark on his heart.
He originally thought that after coming out of the valley, his memory would come to an end. Who would have thought that as soon as he landed on the ground, he would have this expression again.
"Jingyu, did you...remember anything again?" Qin Yunchuan and Mu Jingyu stood side by side and asked softly.
"I remember that half a year ago, when I was pushed by the current and fell from the waterfall, I was startled by an old lady who was washing clothes on the river bank. At that time, she thought I was a monster in the mountains. Haha... "Recalling the scene at that time, Mu Jingyu laughed unconsciously.
"It's just that I never would have imagined. Just a few days later, my aunt and the entire village were killed by a man in black robe who suddenly appeared."
Having said this, Mu Jingyu's face, which had been smiling just now, instantly turned into a look of sadness.
"Are the graves of these villagers nearby? Since we have come here, why don't you... go over and pay your respects?"
"Huh?" Mu Jingyu's eyes lit up, he nodded vigorously and said, "That's fine. It's been more than half a year, and their graves must have been overgrown with weeds."
Mu Jingyu said, walking towards the small mountain village in his memory. Qin Yunchuan was left with a big mouth and was secretly annoyed. After rubbing his temples helplessly, he complained to himself: "Qin Yunchuan, Qin Yunchuan, you are so talkative! It's almost dawn now, and Yan'er and the others are still in danger all the time. You...hey Forget it, since Jingyu wants to pay homage, let him follow his wish."
The sky in the west is as dark as ink, while the sky in the east is bursting with rays of light. The two teenagers walked one behind the other towards the slightly glowing mountain village in the east. And further away, the peaks of Jiuhua Mountain have already been covered with morning glow, looking solemn and solemn.
The small village, which was not big in the first place, had long since become dilapidated because there were no villagers living there. Mu Jingyu just glanced at it from a distance, then turned and walked towards the open space at the head of the village, where he buried all the villagers in the mountain village.
Mu Jingyu first cleaned the graves of all the villagers, and finally came to the grave of the aunt's family. He asked Qin Yunchuan for the Qiankun bag given by Master Tianyang, poured out some dry food and placed it in front of and behind the tomb. He took off the wine gourd on his waist and poured out a lot of fine wine.
Seeing the wine seeping into the soil, as if someone had drank it down, Mu Jingyu squatted on the ground and whispered: "Auntie, uncle, Chunya, I'm here to see you. I know uncle loves you Drink, I brought some here specially, please try it quickly."
As Mu Jingyu spoke, his nose felt sore. Looking at the dozens of graves in front of me, the faces of my grandfather and parents came to my mind, as well as the smiling faces of the young and old in Mujia Village. There are also Long Tianxiao, Mo Yunshen, Drunkard, Medical Immortal, Qin Muzhi, and other figures who once helped him, but in the end the yin and yang were separated.
Qin Yunchuan knew that Mu Jingyu was feeling extremely sad at the moment. He stood aside silently, unwilling and daring not to disturb him. Quietly listening to him talk about the short, but extremely warm time he spent with his aunt and family.
Mu Jingyu looked at things and thought about emotions. After recounting everything he experienced in the mountain village, his mood obviously relaxed a lot. Qin Yunchuan took advantage of the situation to help him up and patted Mu Jingyu on the back.
"Jingyu, since you started from here and were framed step by step by the men in black robes. Let's start from here today.
Find out those who have framed you one by one. Not just to avenge myself. I also want to take revenge for my aunt’s family, for Miss Chunya, and for the seniors such as the Wine Fairy and the Medical Fairy! "
Mu Jingyu was awakened by Qin Yunchuan's powerful voice, and said with firm eyes: "Brother Qin is right, I have experienced enough life and death separations! After the death of Master, I, Mu Jingyu, am no longer the one who can be manipulated by others. I am a young man. Today, let me start from here to protect the people I want to protect and punish those who have hurt me or want to hurt me!"
"Mu Jingyu, you have really grown up!" Qin Yunchuan looked at Mu Jingyu and said seriously: "With my elder brother helping me, we will be able to break diamonds and jade, and embrace the sun and the moon across all nine states! There is no way to go in the world, and there is no disadvantage!”
Mu Jingyu grasped Qin Yunchuan's outstretched palm, laughed loudly and said, "Brother Qin is right, we brothers will definitely be successful if we work together."
After laughing, Mu Jingyu felt much more relaxed. He blinked his eyes and said teasingly: "Brother Qin, I'm afraid that one day, you will fall out with me because of something. If that day comes, I'm afraid. We can’t even be brothers.”
"Bah, bah, bah, Jingyu, what did you say! Would I, Qin Yunchuan, be that kind of person?" Qin Yunchuan pretended to be angry and scolded with a straight face.
Mu Jingyu quickly laughed and said, "What Brother Qin said is true. I take it all as nonsense. Even if the sky falls and the earth falls, and the rivers and lakes turn upside down, we two brothers will not fall out and become enemies."
"Hahaha~~~"
After Mu Jingyu finished speaking, the two of them laughed out loud at the same time. Facing the rising sun, we walked towards the east direction of Xihan Yuanzhou.
————————————————
Thousands of miles away in the Netherworld Ghost State, the bright sun has already risen into the sky.
The entire Netherworld Ghost State is extremely cold because its terrain is more than a thousand feet higher than the other eight states. Fortunately, it has arrived in spring when the larks are recovering and the cold wind is getting warmer, so this vast grassland has a somewhat warm atmosphere.
At the end of the vast grassland, two peaks stand on the horizon, one on the left and one on the right. A lone eagle galloped across the horizon, its cold whistle filling the sky.
Looking down with the eagle's eyes, I saw a large tribe made of black stones between the two peaks, forming a circular array and distributed on the grassland at the foot of the mountain.
No matter how cold wind blows on the plateau, because of the obstruction of these two mountain peaks, this tribal land maintains a spring-like scenery all year round. From the two peaks, the melted ice and snow formed two rivers, which converged near the tribe.
It was long past morning, and in the huge field in the middle of the clan, huge black trees were nailed to the ground. In the direction due east, countless giant black trees were used to build a high platform.
In the center of the high platform, a girl wearing a long black dress and covered with silver ornaments was sitting on a chair, watching hundreds of strong men practicing in the middle of the martial arts field.
Despite the small number of sons and daughters in these tribes, most of them are only in the middle stage of Qi Transformation. But the momentum displayed by each of them was so courageous that no one could match it. Especially after hundreds of people shouted together, their momentum soared to the sky, which was simply more shocking than the average innate powerhouse.
On the seats on both sides of the girl were the old Ba Ming men. Wearing the unique costumes of the Jiuli tribe, they all had serious expressions on their faces. They looked at the drills of the men on the field, sometimes appreciating them, sometimes frowning and shaking their heads.
"Holy aunt, look at the sons and daughters of our clan. They are all strong and capable. They are really brave enough to be invincible." An old man sitting on the left side of the girl, in the upper position, gently stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"The son of the clan has such momentum, all thanks to your teachings, Elder Wuluo. On behalf of the elders of the clan, Yingzi would like to thank you in advance." Needless to say, the girl in front of him, who is called the Holy Aunt, is none other than Chu Li The current generation leader of the tribe is Jin Yingzi.
Faced with Jin Yingzi's praise, Elder Wuluo was obviously very impressed. He stood up slightly and saluted and said with a smile: "Aunt Saint, you are too polite. Since the death of the old patriarch, our Chu Li lineage has been handed over to Saint Aunt before she died. Ji Ji has asked us old guys to do our best to assist Saint Aunt and ensure that our Chu Li family can pass on the inheritance. Naturally, several elders and I will work together to assist you, Saint Aunt."
Several other people who were listening agreed.
Seeing Elder Wuluo mentioning her father, Jin Yingzi's eyes became moist. After taking a deep breath, he stood up and faced the elders present. After bowing and saluting, he sat down again.
Although he was chatting with them indifferently, in fact, thousands of thoughts were flooding in his heart.
Originally, her father was still in good health and would be fine even if he lived for twenty or thirty years. But five years ago, he suddenly contracted a serious illness, and died in just over a month.
At that time, the Jiuli tribe, led by the high priest and the holy aunt, finally found the underground palace where Chi You's body was. Then he called on the hundreds of tribes in Jiuli to try their best to summon Chi You's body, fight out of the ghost state, and restore the glory of the Jiuli tribe.
After hearing this, Jin Yingzi's father, the previous patriarch of the Chu Li tribe, knew that this would not only bring ruin to the entire Jiuzhou, but also possibly cause the Jiuli tribe, which had been peaceful for thousands of years and finally recovered, to suffer another genocide. danger!
Ignoring the dissuasion of the elders of the clan, he went to see the high priest and the holy aunt alone, explaining the powerful relationship between them, in an attempt to persuade them to give up the plan of awakening Chi You's physical body and returning to the Netherworld Ghost State.
He had never thought that Jin Yingzi's father suddenly became seriously ill shortly after returning from Jiuli Temple. Even if the Chu Li tribe tried their best, they could not find out what disease he was suffering from, let alone prescribe the right medicine.
Within three months, the old clan leader fell seriously ill and left Chu Li in the hands of Jin Yingzi, who had just turned eighteen, and told the eight elders of the clan to assist him carefully.
After settling her father's funeral affairs, Jin Yingzi suspected that her father had given advice to the high priest and the holy aunt, and encouraged several tribes with large members in the Jiuli tribe to jointly persuade him, which would lead to murder.
After all, when the high priest and the holy aunt summoned all the chiefs of the Jiuli tribe to announce the matter, they were not only admonished by the Chuli tribe, but also by the chiefs of many other tribes.
Considering that the Chu Li tribe is now one of the most powerful tribes among the Jiuli tribe. It would be reasonable if he would be killed because of this.
It's just that these are purely Jin Yingzi's speculations without any evidence. All in all, after the death of her father, Jin Yingzi, on the advice of Elder Wu Jiu, ostensibly obeyed the high priest. While summoning the clan's sons to prepare for awakening Chi You's true form, she secretly investigated the truth behind her father's death.
After five years, we finally have some clues. The eight elders entrusted to her by her father seemed to be helping her wholeheartedly, but in fact they were divided into three factions.
This first faction is naturally headed by Elder Wu Jiu, who follows the old patriarch's instructions and fully assists him. The second faction, headed by Elder Wuluo, constantly put pressure on her and cooperated with the high priest and the holy aunt to implement the plan to awaken Chi You's true form and return to Kyushu.
The three elders who were between the two factions were wavering. Not only did he want the Chu Li tribe to stand firm in Kyushu again, but he was worried that if it failed, the entire tribe would be in danger of extinction again. For five years, it has been on the sidelines.
After Jin Yingzi's secret investigation, she felt that her father's sudden serious illness was related to the faction headed by Elder Wuluo.
When Jin Yingzi was in a dilemma, the high priest and the holy aunt had already completed the deployment and ordered Elder Guli to lead the elite of the clan to design in Kyushu first.
Jin Yingzi, who was recognized by the holy aunt as the aunt of the entire Jiuli tribe, had no choice but to obey the orders and follow Elder Guli to travel around the Kyushu. By chance, he met Mu Jingyu, the man predicted in the clan's ancient book who could save the fate of the entire clan!
