old grace

After the carriage left Longcheng, it rushed directly to Hushui Palace.

Xie Qinghe had been deducing and pondering along the way, after meeting Lady Liu, how to persuade her to hand over Jiaoer to him to take away.

He took a fancy to Mrs. Liu's child.

That child was born with sword bones, and if he was lucky enough not to be spoiled by that bowl of calming soup, even if he was a little stupider than ordinary people, he would be able to pass on his unique skills and become the next head disciple of the Hanjiang Sword Sect.

After all, there are Li Nanfeng and Chen Yiwei in the mountains.Third Junior Brother and Fourth Junior Brother are both smart.

Mrs. Liu was hunted down and fled from her husband's house to her mother's house.The person she spoke of was "Yangshi", obviously a woman.Now Mrs. Liu and her son are living in her natal family temporarily, after all, it is not a long-term solution.These are Liu Niangzi's weaknesses and pain points.Xie Qinghe wanted to pursue the child born in ten months of pregnancy, and thought about these weaknesses over and over again, but he still felt that it was impossible.

He is looking for a successor.

Then you can't bully other people's mothers, there is no such reason.

At this time, Xie Qinghe understood Shangguan Shiyi's mentality.In ordinary sects, it is always the disciples begging the master to take them back under the sect.It's not the same for their Hanjiang Sword Sect to ask for a disciple who is the head of the sect. The seriousness of the Eight Classics is to ask the apprentice, so they dare not offend easily.

From Longcheng to Hushui Palace, the coachmen Lao Hu and Li Qian took shifts day and night, leaving the horses to rest and eat, and it took nearly six days.

Xie Qinghe was still thinking about what to say when he met Mrs. Liu, Li Qian exclaimed outside the car: "Master Immortal, where did you say..."

"What's wrong?" Xie Qinghe opened the curtain of the car, only to see the flames in front of him, burning half of the mountain red.

Hushui Palace is at the bottom of that mountain, with the mountain as its back and its face surrounded by water.Now that the mountain is on fire, is the Hushui Palace below safe?

"Quick! Go over!" Xie Qinghe said anxiously.

He only cared about the child he had only met once, and he dared to go all out to swallow the demons, betting that it was that child.

Now if that child is gone, who will inherit the Hanjiang Sword Sect? !

Lao Hu could hear his anxious tone, he whipped the whip, and the carriage sped forward quickly.The fire was really too big, and the road was blocked by the fire halfway, and the carriage couldn't pass at all--horses are living creatures, even if they are driven by whips, they will not get into the fire.

Li Qian was about to think of a way, when the curtain of the car lifted, Xie Qinghe flew into the wall of fire and disappeared in an instant.

"The Immortal Master!"

"Wait at a distance." Xie Qinghe's voice had gone far away.

Xie Qinghe never went to places where the fire was fierce.

He couldn't survive such a big fire, let alone Mrs. Liu and the little baby?

He had only met Liu Niangzi once, but he felt that Liu Niangzi had a quick mind, and the baby in the swaddle was not a sign of a short life—maybe, he couldn't accept that his only hope was in despair.For this reason, Xie Qinghe braced his tattered body and searched for a place near Hushui Palace where he could still bully Tibetans.

From time to time on the road, you can see the corpses of the disciples of Hushui Palace, all of which were beheaded by sharp knives, and their bodies are incomplete.After walking for a while, Xie Qinghe saw a corpse lying on the ground showing a fair and delicate face.He remembered that it was Liu Niangzi's female bodyguard, who also had a relationship with him once.

Xie Qinghe took off his cloak and covered the face of the female guard, sighing in his heart, what kind of hatred is it?It went so far as to destroy the door.

He searched in the thick smoke and hidden fire, and after a while, he found the bodies of more female guards he knew, and even the brothers with Mrs. Liu were hacked to death inside and outside the door. Among the dead, men and women had , the corpses of young and old were lying on the ground, it can be said that the whole family died.

Xie Qinghe only has one cloak, how can it cover so many people?After seeing a lot, I can only put it aside in a hurry and continue searching.

It's a pity that the flames are raging further inside, and there is no way to get in.

Xie Qinghe sighed and had no choice but to walk back.

He had to adjust his plans.

Without this child who was born with sword bones, he would have to find a new successor.

Among the juniors who were passed down from the three benefactors, in terms of aptitude, the second junior is naturally the best.pity……

Although Li Nanfeng is weaker, he can barely do it.I only hope that he can guard the mountain gate well, and in the future, he will be lucky enough to find another talented and talented junior for the master's gate, so that the sect's inheritance will not be cut off in half.

When he walked out of Hushui Palace, Xie Qinghe breathed out after holding on all the time, and there was a trace of tears in his eyes.

He thought, if the younger brother didn't do that.Mrs. Ruo Liu's child is alive and well.

At this time, he can hold the child born with sword bones to his junior brother, and entrust Gu to his junior brother, what else can he worry about?He also wanted to directly transport the Da Luo Mie Sheng Sutra, and take away that nest of demons.The group of demons crushed the body, and the muscles and bones were broken.Can barely live without pain?

pity.

Everything he expected was not available.

When he was feeling depressed and weary of the world, a call came from the burning boat floating on the water: "Hero! Hero!"

Xie Qinghe woke up in a jerk, and he recognized that it was Miss Liu's voice!Following the prestige, I saw that the small boat was hidden among the burning ships, floating half a mile away from the shore.

If in the past, Xie Qinghe could fly by with a single jump, but now he can't pass.

He was looking for the tools of the past on the shore, and Mrs. Liu also noticed his weakness, so she tried her best to row the boat to the shore.

Seeing that half of her body was soaked in blood, Xie Qinghe knew that she was seriously injured, so he waded forward all the way to meet the small boat.Seeing him face to face, Mrs. Liu almost cried out, but she didn't cry: "Heaven will not stop me!"

Xie Qinghe saw an arrow in her chest, and the arrow was wrapped with white feathers with golden threads, it was a very delicate and beautiful arrow.

Mrs. Liu has already moved her position with difficulty, using her small hands like green onions to grab the plank of the ship that she is protecting tightly under her body.Xie Qinghe hurriedly got on the boat and helped her open the two movable planks. Inside was a little baby who was sleeping peacefully without crying or fussing.

"...Again, did you feed the medicine?" Xie Qinghe was afraid that he would be fooled by giving medicine to his favorite head disciple.

However, in this situation, if the ignorant baby is not given medicine to keep him quiet from the beginning to the end, how can he survive?

Mrs. Liu hugged the child with trembling hands, touched the child with her face, and tears fell on the child's face: "The chivalrous man is Gao Yi. This child's father's family name is Fu, so there is no need to say more about his origin. I beg you to find a good home for him, or take him with you, and ask him to do errands for you as a servant...just let him survive."

Before Xie Qinghe had time to ask, Mrs. Liu handed over the child first.

He was silent for a moment, and said: "I will tell you my wife. My surname is Xie, my common name is Zhongmin, and my Taoist name is Qinghe. I studied under the master of the Hanjiang Sword Sect, Shangguan Shiyi Zhenren. I was originally a disciple who inherited the Taoist lineage. Longcheng subdue the demon, he was seriously injured and feared to die soon—"

Lady Liu looked at the child in his arms, with a trace of fear in her eyes.

The only person who can be trusted is about to die, what about the child?

"The young master of your family was born with sword bones. I am here to find the next successor for the sect." Xie Qinghe looked at the smooth and beautiful forehead of the sleeping baby in the swaddle, "I want to take him back to Hanshan. The sect will do its best Take care of him. However, my wife must also know that it is not so easy to be the head disciple of the Hanjiang Sword Sect. If there is another disaster in the future, I will die..."

Mrs. Liu could understand, tears streamed down her face, but she spoke simply: "Of course he is the top!"

"I understand this truth." She reached out to touch her child's face, with indescribable love and affection in her eyes: "I only hope that the world will be smooth, and my son can spend his life in peace. If not... , is also a gift from Xie Ye, and then he will be raised and educated by your sect. When he grows up, he will know what to do."

"Miss Gao Yi." Xie Qinghe began to think about how to treat Liu Niangzi.

Mrs. Liu lost a lot of blood, and the long arrow that passed through her chest was extremely difficult to treat. Not only did Xie Qinghe not bring medicine, but his cultivation was also dragged down by the group of demons, so he couldn't move at all.If Liu Niangzi is forced to continue her life, there will be troubles in the future that her skin will collapse.

However, watching Liu Niangzi die?He couldn't be so cruel just for the child in his arms.

Holding her last breath, Mrs. Liu took out a small seal from her purse and said, "This is the business I ran when I was a young girl. It is the Shuxiu I gave to my child to the teacher. Don't think about how to save me." I can't do it." Two lines of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, "If he has some skills in the future, teach him to avenge his uncles, aunts and cousins ​​who died innocently and tragically."

As he spoke, the golden seal in his hand fell to the ground softly, and he completely lost his breath.

Xie Qinghe looked at her pale face, lowered his head, picked up the small seal, and put it in his arms.

At the beginning, Mrs. Liu only wanted her child to live, and she would rather let her child live in the countryside, even if she lived as a slave.After Xie Qinghe confessed her identity, she was willing to hand over her property and ask her child to avenge her uncle's family.Although she didn't tell her background or who her enemy was, it's no secret that she got her golden seal, found her property, and found her "family".

Xie Qinghe put her on the small boat safely, arranged her body, lit the boat and burned the body together.

It wasn't until the fire covered the boat that Xie Qinghe picked up the baby and took away the long arrow that killed Lady Liu.

The uncle's revenge for killing the family must be avenged, but how can he not avenge the murder of his mother?Xie Qinghe looked down at the little baby who was breathing softly, and thought, don't be stupid, you still have a lot of things to do!

After Xie Qinghe walked out of the fire scene, Li Qian and the coachman had retreated half a mile away.

The fire in the mountains depends on the wind, once it burns, it cannot be stopped by manpower.Fortunately, there were not many farmhouses near Hushui Palace, and the casualties caused by the fire were very limited.Xie Qinghe looked at the fire and sighed after all.If his cultivation level is still there, he has the strength to put out the fire, but now that he is not in the fire, it will not be easy, he is really powerless.

Seeing that Xie Qinghe's cloak was gone, his clothes were crumpled, and he was holding a child in his arms, Li Qian was extremely shocked: "Then, we, we..."

"Go in the direction of Pangu Mountain Villa, find a town on the way, and buy some things for children to eat and drink." Xie Qinghe said.

There was only water and dried meat in the carriage. Of course, this unlucky child who was not yet full moon couldn't eat it.

Xie Qinghe is actually unable to take care of the children.Cutting the clean clothes prepared by Lu Yuan into swaddling diapers, and washing and washing the children were all handled by Li Qian tremblingly.I don't know what kind of medicine Mrs. Liu gave the child. The carriage stopped in the town at night, and the child was still sleeping.

Li Qian excitedly went to buy a small stone mill and two catties of japonica rice, and came back to ask Xie Qinghe for credit: "I heard from our old man that the mother of the child did not have enough milk, so she ground the rice to make rice milk for the child..."

Xie Qinghe went to the fire scene to find someone during the day, and used some of his cultivation, but failed to keep his skin safe, and now they rebelled one after another.

He only heard Li Qian buzzing, but he didn't know what he said, so he nodded indiscriminately.

After a while, the coachman Lao Hu also came back.He brought back a milk-producing ewe.Li Qian, who was looking for a small stove and asked the inn to sell some walnut charcoal for him, was suddenly speechless.Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy!

After days of exhaustion, Xie Qinghe, who had found the successor, finally let go and asked everyone to rest overnight at the inn in the town.

Both Lao Hu and Li Qian were snoring everywhere.Xie Qinghe was burnt inside, he couldn't fall asleep no matter what, he watched over the little baby nearby, sitting cross-legged on the bed, taking care of himself.In a trance, people can feel a little more comfortable.

At dawn, Xie Qinghe felt something in his heart, and slowly opened his eyes.

At this time, there was faint morning light coming in from the window, and the baby in swaddling could barely be seen clearly.The child was already awake, looking at him curiously with dark eyes.Both feet are restless.With the thumb of his left hand in his mouth, he spit out a lot of saliva.

Xie Qinghe was a little at a loss, and asked after a while: "Are you hungry?"

The child was still looking at him.

"Are you blind?" Xie Qinghe shook his hand in front of the child's eyes, and he was relieved when he saw the child's reaction.

It's okay to be stupid, but it's too bad if it's stupid and blind.

Lao Hu is a decent person, he milked the ewe once he brought it back, boiled it in a small pot and put it in a porcelain urn before going to sleep.

Xie Qinghe heated up the prepared goat milk, and fed it to the child through a bamboo tube after it cooled down.The child was obviously very hungry, and he ate more than half a bowl of goat milk before vomiting.Xie Qinghe wiped his saliva and milk-stained cheeks and chin, and changed his diaper. Xie Qinghe, who is naturally clean, felt a sense of hardship and hardship.

The next day when Li Qian got up, Xie Qinghe handed over the child to him.Li Qian was confused, what do you mean by this?

On the next day when he went to Pangu Mountain Villa, Li Qian found that Xie Qinghe's health had become worse (?), and he could still sit on the carriage to practice martial arts before, but these days he got on the carriage crookedly, as if he was very weak (?), and could only lie down sleep.So Li Qian consciously took the child with him day and night, urinated and excreted the child, milked and warmed the milk, and was worried about Xie Qinghe's body by the way.

The closer he was to Pangu Villa, the worse Xie Qinghe's mood would be.

He attached great importance to Shangguan Shiyi's death, so he dragged his sick body to personally collect the remains of his teacher.In fact, if he returned to Hanshan first and sent Li Nanfeng to bring his outer disciples to Pangu Villa to deal with the funeral, no one would accuse him of not being dedicated.

——In order to relieve the evil trouble, he was seriously injured to this point. No one can blame him for the righteousness.

However, he also has a bottom line in his heart.No matter how important the funeral is, it is not as important as the living.

Therefore, he first went to Hushui Palace to find the successor, and then set off to Pangu Villa to collect Shangguan Shiyi's remains.

He thought of many possibilities.

Perhaps, he will see two corpses.

Perhaps, the younger brother had already fled, leaving only the master's body in place.

……

As soon as the carriage entered the range of Pangu Mountain Villa, young disciples came to ask about the origin and purpose.

Xie Qinghe showed his identity, and was warmly welcomed into Pangu Mountain Villa immediately, and even his disciples rushed back to the village to report the situation.

In the middle of the journey, Zhou Ying, the new owner of Pangu Villa, and Yuan Yanshan, Yunhuang's disciple, rushed out to welcome them.Yuan Yanshan and Xie Qinghe were old friends, standing in front of the carriage, his tone was very relaxed and cheerful: "Brother, I'll pick you up! Why are you still in the carriage?"

Li Qian helped Xie Qinghe open the car curtain.

Seeing that Xie Qinghe's jade face was chapped and his body was haggard with scars, Yuan Yanshan's expression froze immediately, and Zhou Ying was also taken aback.

"I'm here to welcome back my mentor," Xie Qinghe said.

Almost all the older generation in Pangu Villa died, and the younger generation of masters also died before Shangguan Shiyi rushed to help. Even Yun Huang, who came to the rescue, also died a lot of masters.Although Zhou Ying is young, he is a landlord after all. When Xie Qinghe came to pick him up, he had to take the initiative to answer: "Yes. Yes... Big Brother, please come with me, I will lead the way."

On the way, it was not easy to ask what happened to Xie Qinghe, Zhou Ying and Yuan Yanshan got on the horse again, and Li Qian put down the curtain of the car.

In front of the gate of Pangu Mountain Villa, Xie Qinghe got out of the carriage, only to see nothing.Many people died in Pangu Villa and Yunhuang who came to help, and now is the time for all the families to wear mourning.This harsh plain white made Xie Qinghe feel more and more heavy.

Zhou Ying led the way, and walked towards the side courtyard.

Xie Qinghe was suddenly a little angry!

My mentor is No. 1 in the world. He died on the battlefield of your family out of righteousness, and your family wears mourning for the funeral. How dare you not enshrine my mentor's remains in the hall, but put them in the side hall?Who is in the main hall?Is it more honorable than my mentor? !

You have such a big face in Pangu Villa!

Before he could turn his face, Shu Hanyun pushed the wheelchair and walked out quickly.

Xie Qinghe opened his eyes wide, and suddenly realized that the person in the wheelchair was actually Shangguan Shiyi? !

"Master?!"
