Song Xin's great revenge was avenged. After everyone dispersed, he knelt down and bowed three times to the east alone. Wei Tong took a jug of wine from his entourage and worshiped eastward with him.
But the strange thing is that Song Xin didn't feel any pleasure in revenge at this time. On the contrary, after he completed this task, he actually felt a little empty inside, a little overwhelmed, and seemed to have lost his goal.
Wei Tong saw Song Xin in a daze and asked, "Brother Xian, what's wrong?"
Song Xin shook his head in confusion and said, "Brother, why don't I feel the satisfaction of revenge? I thought I would be very happy if my father's grievances were cleared."
Wei Tong smiled and said: "Brother, revenge is not everything you have. Maybe it can push you to do things you once dared not do, but hatred will eventually pass. We cannot always rely on hatred to motivate ourselves. That is only for the weak. Things that will be done.”
Song Xin seemed to realize something, "What the elder brother said is that I just can't figure it out for a moment. And I have never felt this way before." Song Xin thought of Zhai Qianqian. If he were to send him back to his original world now, he would kill Zhai Qianqian himself. It was as easy as squeezing an ant to death with Young Master Gu, but he didn't even have the slightest interest in killing them.
Wei Tong smiled and comforted: "Although my name is 'Tong', I still can't understand the complexity of this world. I have a clear character, but I still don't know anything about the world. It's really funny to say."
Wei Tong paused and then said: "Brother, you are a cultivator, so you will definitely live longer than me. You have enough time to figure this problem out. If you figure it out in the future, remember to tell me in front of my eldest brother's grave. "
Song Xin was a little excited, tears welling up in her eyes, "Brother Wei... If I can live forever, I will also let you live forever!"
Unexpectedly, Wei Tong shook his head and said: "Thank you, dear brother. If I live forever, knowing the answer may be cruel and painful to me. I, Wei Tong, still hope that living to the end of this life is enough. I only hope that when I die, You can also work hard day and night."
Taoist ancestors said that the length of life is only between breaths. Mortals and Taoists are like meteors to heaven and earth. Even if you can live for hundreds or thousands of years, it is still very short for heaven and earth.
Wei Tong took a sip from the wine bottle and asked, "Xian brother, it's a good thing to get revenge. What are your recent plans?"
"I want to relax near the Mianshui River." Song Xin planned to go to the Water Mansion again to see if there was any way to open it.
Wei Tong asked: "That's okay, do you need someone to accompany you?"
"No, I can be alone. I'm just relaxing, brother, don't worry."
While they were talking, a group of horses galloped in the distance. It turned out to be Song Ya coming in a hurry. He said breathlessly: "Lu Ying ran away!"
Wei Tong and Song Xin were both shocked, "Isn't there someone always watching him? How could he run away?"
"I don't know who leaked the news. Lu Ying is really cunning and let people pretend to be herself. She has already escaped!"
Song Xin punched the ground, "Damn it! When did you escape?"
Song Ya said: "When we were catching Song Chou, he had already taken the opportunity to leave. Maybe..."
Song Xin frowned, "Maybe... Lu Ze and Song Chou are the bait for him to seize the opportunity!"
Song Ya nodded, "Yes, that's right, that's it."
"Now, I'm afraid many people in the Dian School Office will be purged." Wei Tong sighed.
Song Ya asked: "Cousin, what are your plans?"
"I plan to cross the river alone and find Lu Ying. If Lin Danda's revenge is not avenged, I will have no shame in going back to see his brothers."
Wei Tong and Song Ya were both shocked, "You want to cross the river? That is enemy territory."
"So I have to go there alone, so I won't be noticed. I guess Lu Ying must have escaped across the river."
"Now that my brother has made up his mind, I have nothing to say. If you have made up your mind, just go ahead and do it! Brother is waiting for you to come back with Lu Ying's head! I will tell Mr. Hua Xin your decision. "Wei Tong patted Song Xin on the shoulder.
"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you to come back in Xiangyang!" Song Ya came over and hugged Song Xin.
"I will send the documents of your father's case back to your hometown. By the way, I will leave some traveling expenses for you." Wei Tong took out a bag of money from his arms and gave it to Song Xin. Although he is a practitioner, Song Xin still needs to eat every day, so he accepted it without any politeness.
Wei Tong patted Song Xin's shoulder. At this time, Song Ya inadvertently raised his head, his eyes narrowed, and he touched Song Xin with his arm.
On a hill not far away, Tuoye was leading a horse and looking towards this side. Ever since she learned that Tuo Shan was dead that day, Song Xin had never seen her again.
"Did you know? He married Wei Xuan and became a concubine." Song Ya whispered.
Song Xin smiled lightly and said, "So that's it."
Song Ya sighed and said: "I didn't expect that she is a woman who is greedy for wealth, and the Wei family treated her like that, and she actually..."
"Cousin, there are some things you don't know." Song Xin knew Tuoye's intentions. He wanted to take revenge in the Xianbei way, which was to take the Wei family into his own hands.
Walking up to Tuoye alone, Song Xin smiled and said, "Congratulations, Mrs. Wei. Unfortunately, I don't have any gifts to give you."
Tuoye turned pale and said, "Thank you for helping me avenge you. You killed Song Chou and avenged the people of my tribe. This is a gift."
"Where's the Wei family's feud? If you want help, come to me at any time." Song Xin asked.
"Thank you. I'll give you news if necessary." Tuoye smiled a little bit when he heard about the Wei family.
Tuoye continued: "I'm here to tell you something."
"What's the matter?"
"Wei Qi is awake."

Tuoye shook his head and said, "Although I'm awake, I seem to have forgotten everything before."
"Have you forgotten?" Song Xin was even more stunned.
Tuoye nodded: "I didn't believe it at the beginning of the period. I tested him several times, and found that he had really forgotten that he didn't even know his parents. But his temperament is a little different."
"Why is it different?" Song Xin asked.
"Wei Qi used to have a trace of compassion, but after waking up this time, he was like an inhuman beast. That day in the garden, just because a maid glanced at him, he strangled her to death. Wei Xuan was angry and locked him in a separate courtyard, unable to get out at all. Later Liu Jing said that this was a short-term amnesia after recovery, and it would get better after a while. But I felt that he was not telling the truth."
Song Xin frowned: "Then you have to be careful, don't let him hurt you, be careful of this old guy Liu Jing."
Tuoye didn't answer, "Don't worry, Wei Xuan can't live without me now. As long as he is here, I will not be in danger."
"What about Liu Jing, is he also in Xiangyang?"
Tuoye shook his head and said: "He said he was going to look for some medicinal materials. He said that the reason why Wei Qi was like this was because his soul was damaged, so he wanted to help Wei Qi recover his memory. He has been away for a few days. You have to be careful, I heard Liu Before Jing left, he said he had found someone to deal with you."
Song Xin was secretly surprised. He knew that Liu Jing was afraid of Yu Ji behind him and did not dare to do it himself, so he secretly found helpers to deal with him. He thanked him and said, "Well, thank you for your message. I will be careful."
Tuoye nodded, then mounted his horse and left without any regrets. Song Xin looked at her back with mixed feelings. Between the vast sky and the earth, a lonely figure gradually fades away. The bulging cloak behind her blooms like a black mandala...
She was unwilling to use her own power, but was willing to marry her enemy as a concubine just for revenge.
After sighing, Song Xin said goodbye to Song Ya and Wei Tong, and embarked on his journey south alone.
This time he was also prepared to find a way to open the water palace. Maybe people in the surrounding villages would know something.
After riding for dozens of miles, I felt that my enthusiasm was waning. I couldn't say that I was in a good mood after taking revenge. I always felt empty for some reason. Letting the horse find its own path, he gradually deviated from the wide official road and took a road with fewer pedestrians.
When the sky was getting dark, he saw dots of torches in the distance. He stared at them and immediately stopped the reins and stopped the horses.
"Robber! The robber is coming!" Exclaims came from the ears at the same time.
I saw a group of people dressed in different costumes and holding swords surrounding a group of people and robbing them. These defenseless people were trembling with fear.
"We only seek wealth, not murder. You should hand over all your belongings soon. If you dare to hide them secretly, look at them." The robber leader shouted loudly, and pointed the bleeding knife tip at the ground that was still bleeding. Several corpses.
"Hey, brother, look!" Someone next to the bandit leader pointed at the crowd. There was a trembling young woman holding two girls tightly in her arms.
The bandit leader's eyes lit up, he walked forward with a smile, and grabbed the woman, "Brothers, look at these two chicks, they are so tender!"
These words attracted the attention of other robbers, and immediately several more people came over with grinning faces.
There is a young man beside the woman, who is obviously her husband. When he saw that his wife and daughter were about to be humiliated, he cried loudly and begged: "Brothers, please let them go."
"Hey, are these your wife and daughter? Not bad." The robbers were not in a hurry to rob property, and they all gathered around here.
"Uncle, please, I'll give you whatever you want." The young man knelt on the ground and begged.
The bandit leader laughed ferociously, "Hey, do you want everything? I think your wife and daughter are both good, so we want them."
The young man trembled, knelt down and cried loudly. He grabbed the robber's sleeve and begged: "Uncle, they are all children under ten years old. Please let them go."
The bandit leader said: "Hey, why are you so ignorant? They followed us, they want to eat and wear, and they don't have to starve and freeze here with you." He kicked the young man away. , grabbed the frightened woman on the ground, and the two girls cried and were also caught by the two robbers.
The young man tried to stop him, but the robber stepped on his chest. The young man struggled on the ground and begged for mercy. In exchange, he received a heavy kick in the face, as well as endless ridicule and insults.
There were many women among this group of people. The robbers gathered all the pretty ones, tied them up with ropes, and prepared to take them back together.
The bandit leader looked at the remaining people and said with a sneer: "I'm in a good mood today, so I won't kill you. But I took these women and money away."
Song Xin watched them commit the crime from a distance, and secretly clenched his palms into fists. "These beasts!" he cursed.
Those who had lost their wives begged and cried desperately, but this crying made the bandit leader very tired.
The bandit leader seemed to think it was too bad for these people to cry. He grabbed the young man who had lost his wife and two daughters, put a knife to his neck, and said with a sneer: "You are too noisy. I have changed my mind today." I’ll kill you all.”
At this moment, a stone the size of a chestnut came through the wind and hit the bandit leader on the back of the head.
