After the ancestor of Tianhua left, Bai Che finally let go of his hanging heart. He knew that the ancestor of Tianhua did not take action because of Master Hu's instruction, but he was the ancestor of Yingtianmen after all, and he wanted to protect the nearly 100,000 yuan. People are not difficult.
Especially when the spiritual power fluctuations revealed at the end, Bai Che realized that his cultivation level was higher than he thought. If the sword just struck him, he would be the one injured in the end.
Bai Che sighed and said to himself: "Master Hu, you saved me again."
Thinking of the last words of Patriarch Tianhua, Bai Che couldn't help but frown. The level that the bronze pot touched was far from enough with his current cultivation level.
Bai Che stopped thinking about it, and then looked at the exhausted people at Cangqiongmen. He slowly said: "We won the final battle of the Hundred Gates War. Now, everyone disperse and have a good rest. Tomorrow night, we will fight with the sacrificed brothers." Sisters, celebrate together!”
Hearing this, everyone in Cangqiongmen cheered and dragged their tired bodies away.
Bai Che stood alone on the top of the mountain, looking at the devastated ground and the corpses one after another without saying a word. His heart was full of heavyness.
Xuan Lei Dao Shen did not dare to provoke Bai Che at this moment. He stood silently behind Bai Che. Yue Hanshu, Li Shuang and others looked at Bai Che and hesitated to speak, but finally chose to remain silent.
Not long after, Bai Che smiled at a few people and jumped down. He came to the blood-red ground and looked at the corpses. Bai Che didn't speak. He looked at the elders he was familiar with. , disciple, is almost a cold corpse by now.
Many of the disciples had greeted him a few days ago. They were extremely happy to see Bai Che. At that time, Bai Che saw their trust in their eyes.
Bai Che also saw the disciple who was guarding the door and sleeping that day, and now he was also a cold corpse.
I saw countless disciples and elders making extremely tragic sacrifices to survive the Cang Qiong Sect.
Bai Che saw Wang Zheng. When they first met, this man was extremely arrogant towards him. But later, after a series of events, Wang Zheng became extremely loyal to him. But now, Wang Zheng's blood has dried and his blood has solidified. on the ground.
Bai Che sighed, rolled it up and took it into the "Bafang Immortal Mansion". He wanted to send Wang Zheng and Chu Hengyu back to Yujingmen.
Bai Che also saw two people. These two people shocked his heart, and the sadness in his heart reached the extreme. Among the two of them, one had no legs and the other had no hands, but in front of them lay one after another of the combined forces of the sects. people.
But these two people finally died of exhaustion. They did not live on their knees, but died standing, with a bright smile on their faces.
Bai Che didn't know these two people, but they gave him a huge impact. Later, Yue Hanshu told Bai Che their identities. After hearing this, Bai Che just nodded and said nothing. His mood became heavier and heavier, and his mind gradually Whirl around an idea.
Bai Che continued walking...
As the sun set in the west, Bai Che stepped on the blood-red ground, remembering the sacrifices of all the people, and wondered what he was thinking.
...
The next night in the back mountain, Cangqiongmen began to celebrate. They seemed very happy, eating large pieces of meat and drinking from large bowls, heartily.
Bai Che also personally cooked and cooked delicious food for everyone at Cangqiongmen, which was praised by everyone.
Bai Che smiled and leaned against a wall, facing the moonlight, drinking alone.
Late at night, the dark clouds covered the moon, and there was almost no light. Bai Che's body gradually merged into the black, and he came to the blood-red land.
Bai Che placed a large jar of wine and said to the sacrificed people on the ground: "Everyone, this jar of wine is dedicated to your contribution to the Cangqiong Sect. It is your sacrifice that the Cangqiong Sect can finally win. This You deserve the jar of wine!"
Bai Che placed another jar and said, "This jar of wine is the thoughts of everyone at Cangqiong Sect for you. I hope you will have a good journey and be an ordinary person in the next life!"
Bai Che put another jar of wine on the table and said, "This jar of wine is my debt to you all and my apology to you. If it weren't for my arrogance, maybe you would still have dozens or hundreds of wonderful years." Life, but it’s all because of me. I didn’t understand the situation clearly, so your life hit the end button..."
"I am not a qualified sect leader... Don't worry, I will step down and give you an explanation. This jar of wine should be regarded as my temporary apology..."
"Actually, I don't know why I promised Patriarch Tianhua to let these people go. But I know that I'm sorry for you. I don't ask for your forgiveness, and I'm not qualified to get your forgiveness. Cangqiongmen I am not worthy of the position of head of the sect..."
After that, Bai Che raised the wine jar and poured the wine into his mouth. This jar of wine had no fragrance, only endless bitterness and spiciness.
For a while, a gentle breeze rustled the leaves.
...
Gradually, Bai Che heard the sound of footsteps. He looked up and saw that it was the people from Cangqiongmen who came to this sad battlefield with lanterns. They looked at the sacrificed people one by one, communicated with them, and gave them a message. They toasted, talked about their concerns, and wiped the blood off their bodies...
It turned out that everyone had not forgotten to tell these sacrificed disciples the good news of victory.
Seeing this, Bai Che didn't speak, but his eyes were a little red.
Yue Hanshu walked towards Bai Che, her eyes moist, and she said: "Master...let them...let them rest in their graves."
Hearing this, Bai Che nodded, and the celebration banquet turned into a memorial service at this moment.
Throughout the night, everyone at Cangqiong Gate was busy. They buried all the sacrificed people in the back mountain. The scenery here is beautiful and you can see everything in Cangqiong Gate, which is equivalent to continuing to guard Cangqiong Gate.
After the sun rose, new tombs stood in a row, looking like a forest of steles. Everyone mourned with a heavy heart. Bai Che drank wine and smiled stupidly at the gentle tombstone. There seemed to be no light in his eyes.
"Wen Liang, we won, but I can't bear the price. I would rather die than let you sacrifice..."
"I think I'm not suitable to be the sect leader, so..." Bai Che smiled: "I originally planned to officially give up the position of sect leader to you after the war, because compared to me , you are more suitable, but...you kid..."
"Actually, I also understand that when you gave up your position as sect leader to me, it was for the sake of the disciples of the Blood Puppet Sect. You would rather give up your position as sect leader and your life to keep your disciples safe. From this point alone, you That’s more than me.”
"From now on, you will be the one arranging all the affairs within the sect. As for me, I am just a fisherman. I am not qualified to be the sect leader."
"I have already planned to pass on the position of sect leader to Han Shu. I think she will do a better job than me."
"I respect you for this glass of wine, brother." Bai Che smiled, but there were tears in his eyes.
...
After the funeral, Cangqiong Sect quickly entered into the reconstruction work and the aftermath work of the Great Wilderness Hundred Sects. Bai Che left everything to Yue Hanshu, Li Shuang and others to arrange.
Bai Che himself took a wine bottle to the Forest of Steles and sat there all day long. He looked at the tombstones one after another with dull eyes. He was always mumbling to himself, intoxicated, which seemed to be Bai Che's means of escaping sadness.
He drank all day long and looked haggard.
Time flies, like a white horse passing by, suddenly, gradually, half a year has passed, the Forest of Steles is covered with grass, it is late autumn, the surrounding leaves have all fallen, and the scenery is desolate.
On this day, Bai Che came to the Forest of Steles again with a wine bottle. As always, he sat in front of Wen Liang's tombstone, drinking and murmuring.
"The wild grass is so vast, and the poplar trees are swaying... Wen Liang, it's really cold at this time of year."
In the past six months, Cangqiong Sect has taken on a new look, and has obtained most of the sect's resources. It has become the strongest sect in the wilderness in one fell swoop. It is much stronger than the three giants at the beginning. The other sects have gradually been established, but , compared to the Cangqiongmen, one sky and one earth.
In the wilderness, I am proud to invest in the Cangqiongmen.
Granny Hua is back, but she is seriously injured and has lost all her cultivation. From now on, she can only live out her days at Cangqiongmen.
Bai Che's state has finally been adjusted. He is not as indulging in sadness as he was at first, but he still comes to the Forest of Steles every day to talk to Wen Liang and drink. It seems to have become his habit.
During this period, Bai Che sent Chu Hengyu and Wang Zheng back to Yujingmen. The disciples in the "Shadow Pavilion", the original disciples of Yujingmen, told Bai Che that the most beautiful place in Yujingmen was "Yuliu Fufeng". Che nodded and buried Chu Hengyu and Wang Zheng in "Yu Liu Fufeng".
Bai Che found Yue Hanshu again, arranged a lot of things, and kept making insinuations, meaning that he planned to give her the position of door leader, but Yue Hanshu refused, and said that the Cangqiong Gate would always belong to Bai Che, and she would be his. Loyal subordinates are willing to be by your side.
Bai Che shook his head and sighed, saying that he was not here to test her, but that he wanted to leave.
Yue Hanshu also shook her head. She understood that Bai Che was not here to beat her, but that she just wanted to stay by Bai Che's side.
Bai Che had no choice but to persuade Yue Hanshu to agree to be the acting sect leader and guard the Cangqiong Sect while Bai Che was away.
However, she didn't know that once Bai Che passed away, she would never have a chance to be with him again in this life.
...
Bai Che asked Li Shuang and Lu Lin to return to Zi Ji with the guards from the Dahuang Chamber of Commerce, and asked them to protect Zi Ji.
The two of them did not refuse. They were members of the Dahuang Chamber of Commerce, and it was their original responsibility to protect Zi Ji.
Saint Zhou Tong did not know when she left the "Bafang Immortal Mansion". Bai Che knew that Saint Zhou Tong had successfully refined the cold yin energy. Without the suppression of the cold yin energy, she could now adapt to this world and go wherever she wanted. Where did it go?
The three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang also urged Bai Che many times that the trial in Shuofeng Village was about to begin. If he wanted to be recognized by the "Tian Fu Ren", he should set off.
Bai Che nodded, but he said he would wait for someone to come.
...
A few days later, a man came and told Bai Che that he had come to fulfill the agreement. The man who came was a drunkard. At this moment, the drunkard was wearing light blue clothes and looked full of energy.
Bai Che smiled and asked him what he told the Zhibei family. The drunkard answered seriously that he wanted to find his lost memory.
The head of the Zhibei family did not speak, but just nodded.
...
A few days later, Bai Che came to Wen Liang's tombstone again. At this moment, the wind was even more bleak and the grass was turning yellow.
Bai Che said with a smile: "Wen Liang, I think it's time for me to leave. I'd like to toast you to this jug of wine. Please drink it sparingly."
With that said, Bai Che took off the wine bottle and placed it in front of Wen Liang's grave.
Bai Che left the Forest of Steles and walked to the mountain gate, but the mountain gate was crowded with Cangqiong Sect disciples. Under the leadership of Yue Hanshu, they all spoke: "Master, all of us are waiting for you to come back. I wish you all the best... "
Bai Che's eyes were moist. He held back his tears, nodded, and then left a lot of spirit stones, materials, and even heaven-level magic weapons.
Later, Bai Che jumped on the drunkard's jug, and the drunkard, Liu Yu and others were waiting for Bai Che.
"Where to go?" asked the drunkard.
"Shuofeng Village." Bai Che said with a smile.
"You just left like this?" The drunkard looked calm, "You didn't stay much?"
"No." Bai Che shook his head, and then said: "Leaving is a new journey!"
