Cultivate the ruthless way for him

Candles flickered all over the hall, reflecting Lingshu's pale face.

"The magic power of that monster is profound, and the guards are not opponents at all. The chief guard made a few assaults, but failed to enter the cave. In desperation, he could only send a letter to the patriarch's wife to the Qilin Palace, and at the same time send a message to the young man who was stationed nearby. Elder He asked for help, Elder Qinghe heard the news, and immediately rushed over with the monks in the door..."

Sinan still has an impression of this matter.

"That's right, it was indeed Elder Qing He who rescued us."

"After I woke up, my father, queen, mother and concubine specifically mentioned this matter to me. The concubine made me remember the kindness of Elder Qinghe, and let me enter the elder's sect and follow him to practice."

"But, since we were rescued, how could Zhaozhao..."

"That's right, Elder Qinghe did overcome the monsters and rescued the young master."

Lingshu's voice choked up, and said: "It's just that he only saved the young master."

"After Elder Qing He rushed into the cave to rescue the young master, he quickly withdrew out, and—and ordered the guards to seal the cave entrance and completely seal the monster in the cave..."

Si Nan paled in shock, opened his mouth wide, and his brain buzzed, blank.

Big tears rolled down from his eyes.But he couldn't even cry, his whole body was trembling violently like a broken leaf in the wind, and he asked, "What about Zhaozhao? Where's Zhaozhao!"

Lingshu lamented: "Poor young master, he had already climbed to the entrance of the cave with his own strength. Under the eyes of the guards in the palace, he was forced back by the monster again. The young master shouted and cried frantically. , begging for help, begging, no one paid any attention to him. They were just like that, watching the little prince fall into the hands of the monster."

"No, no, this is impossible, how could the elder refuse to save him?"

"Yeah, maybe they had extra strength to rescue the young master, but at that time, the monsters were attacking fiercely and the cave was in danger of collapsing at any time. No one would take the risk to save a poor bloodline who had occupied the magpie's nest for so long. The blood of the snake tribe. What good will it do them to rescue the young master? Neither will they get the gratitude from the patriarch's wife, nor will they get gold, silver, jewelry and high officials' rich salary, but the young master is different. From Elder Qinghe to the head of the guard, and then to their monks and guards, they have all achieved great success with this "savior's miraculous work" and received generous rewards. They just chose the safest and most secure method."

Si Nan burst into tears, still unable to believe the bloody truth: "Even if Elder Qinghe has selfish desires, what about the father, queen, mother and concubine, they will not ignore Zhao Zhao."

Lingshu smiled wryly: "At that time, the young master was trapped in the cave for eight days and nights. When he was rescued, he was already unconscious and his life was in danger at any time. The patriarch's wife tied her whole heart to the young master, and she kept guarding him in her clothes. With the young master around, how could he think of the young master, and Elder Qinghe ordered all those who knew the matter to keep a tight lid on the matter, so no one mentioned the young master in front of the patriarch's wife."

"The little boy was sealed to death in the cave together with the big demon. Not long after, the cave collapsed, and the little boy didn't die. His body was covered in blood. He crawled out from the gap in the collapsed rock. No one knew what happened in the cave. What happened, and no one knows what the little boy went through. The subordinates only know that after he came back, the little boy had that wound on his back. At that time, the little boy's back was almost completely covered by the claws of the monster. Gouged it out, but the young master was afraid that people would know that he was injured by the big demon, so he didn't dare to ask the doctor, and he didn't dare to let other people see it. In the end, he swallowed all the pills that could be used in the other courtyard, and he It took seven days and seven nights to survive. At that time, all eyes in the whole palace were focused on the young master, but no one noticed the young master's situation. A small number of insiders only felt that the young master's fate was great. You actually have the ability to escape from the hands of the big devil."

"Now that I tell the truth, although I feel sorry for the Qilin Palace and the patriarch's wife, I have a clear conscience. I only regret that I was not brave enough to break into the palace and tell the patriarch's wife about it. Maybe, The little boy could have been rescued earlier, so he wouldn't have to suffer so much."

Si Nan closed his eyes, distraught.

No wonder, no wonder that after he woke up from the coma, the palace was full of people, but the little boy who usually liked to cling to him the most never showed up.

What a bastard he was, what a fool.

Why did he take it for granted that the younger brother, like him, was recuperating, so he couldn't visit him.

Even after seeing the pale and haggard complexion of the young man, he didn't even feel suspicious, and enjoyed his care with peace of mind.

after that.

He often took him with him to Elder Qinghe's mansion to listen to lectures and practice.No wonder the young man stood far away outside the practice room waiting for him every time, never refusing to follow him in... All the past, like running water paintings, flashed through his mind one by one, leaving only endless remorse and remorse.

Si Nan didn't even dare to think deeply about those years in the Qilin Palace, what he thought were the peaceful and joyous scenes of those years.That was just the beauty of him alone, but the other little boy had been enduring boundless pain and torment.

Sanskrit could not bear to listen any longer, sighed, and clenched his fists hard.

I thought to myself, this Qilin Palace is one of the Twelve Aristocratic Families, and the deeds of the patriarch and the elders are no different from those of the demon clan and the demon clan.

In the bleak silence, Wei Zhangyuan asked: "That little thing, did I tell you what that big demon is?"

Lingshu nodded.

"Said."

"Young master said that what was trapped in the cave was a huge dragon. The wound on the young master's back was injured by the claws of the evil dragon."

Zhang Yuan's expression was shocked.

Stand up abruptly. "Dragon?"

"Yes."

"A huge, insubstantial, resentful dragon."

"The reason why the little prince was able to escape from death is also because the magic dragon wanted to find a suitable sacrifice, and the sacrifice went to..."

"Where is the sacrifice?"

"Those who sacrificed to... the Ten Thousand Devils' Nest shall be in the Pond of No Regret."

As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was shocked.

Even Zhang Yuan didn't recover for a long time.

Zhang Yuan suddenly remembered that in Fenghui town, he had seen the magic dragon in Zhaozhaohuan territory.In the illusion, he was fighting with the dragon with a sword.Could it be that this little thing subconsciously returned to the cave in the Kirin Palace back then, hoping to save him by himself.

The Sanskrit voice couldn't believe it: "The magic dragon... has something to do with the demon king Wentian?"

This secret was originally refused to be revealed even if Lingshu was killed, but now that the young master is dead, and Mr. Zhang Yuan does not seem to be a cold and heartless person, Lingshu suddenly felt sour, nodded, and said: "That's right, according to the demon dragon, it is the last clone of the demon king Wentian remaining in time. In order to avoid the tracking of the heavenly soldiers, it escaped into the Qilin Palace and hid in that hidden cave to recuperate. Its only The task is to find a suitable 'sacrifice', and use the method of sacrifice to recall Wentian's soul and resurrect Wentian. His favorite candidate is actually Young Master Sinan, because Young Master Sinan is weak and easy to be manipulated. And there is pure immortal energy in his body. After the young master Sinan was rescued, he made a retreat and chose the young master. At first, this monster hid in the dark, and it has been hidden. It didn't do anything, because it went out a few days ago When I was looking for the 'sacrifice', I was injured by the Qilin Palace magic circle, and my mana was damaged."

Zhang Yuan frowned.

Wentian asked why there was a clone left in the world, why he didn't realize it.

After the first battle between immortals and demons, he clearly suppressed all the souls of Wentian in the Western Wuwanghai.

Without a soul as a carrier, where does the avatar come from.

"Zhaozhao once told me that he had gouged out a bone and sealed the wound with a forbidden technique, so he hid the matter and was not further swallowed by the devilish energy. What forbidden technique did he use?"

Lingshu was taken aback.

"Eliminate bones?"

"Subordinate, I have never heard the young master mention this matter."

"You don't know?"

"Yes. I don't dare to lie to your majesty. I really don't know. The young master clearly said that he met an expert by chance and helped him to seal it with fairy art."

"You followed him every step of the way, how could you not know?"

"Subordinates—" Lingshu shook his head: "Subordinates, they are not always by the young master's side. According to what your majesty said, the so-called forbidden technique is very likely, very likely, done by the young master when he was in the Ba Snake Clan. "

"Ba, ba snake?"

Si Nan's expression froze. "When did Zhao Zhao go to Ba Snake?"

"That's right, even the young master thought that the young master despises his origin from the demon clan, and has never returned to Bashe, nor has he ever recognized a relative of Bashe. In fact... the young master has gone back."

"After narrowly escaping from the cave that time, the young master became disheartened. For the first time, he wanted to leave the Qilin Palace and look for his own clan. When the young master was in a coma, he kept calling his father, mother, and It hurts, the subordinate thought, young master, he must be missing his parents and family. After waking up, the young master told his subordinates that he didn't want to be a god, nor did he want to cultivate. When he returned to his clan, no one would dislike him Because of his background, no one drove him away, and no one spoke ill of him. His relatives will definitely take good care of him."

Si Nan suddenly thought of something.

"Could it be my birthday that year?"

Lingshu nodded.

"That's right. The patriarch's wife was really happy when the young master narrowly escaped death. In order to celebrate the young master's recovery and also to drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters, she hosted a grand birthday banquet for the young master in the Qilin Palace. The young master was there that night. , took his personal belongings, and quietly left the Qilin Palace."

"The young master dragged his sick body back to Bashu full of hope. After asking around, he finally found the cave of the Basnake clan. He looked for it excitedly. He thought that his clan would be very happy to accept him and welcome him. Going home and giving him shelter, he thought that his days of living under the fence would finally be over, but he never imagined that those Ba snake people were cold-blooded, selfish, and didn't care about family ties at all. They surrounded the young master like hungry wolves, They snatched the young master's baggage and all the valuables on his body, stripped the young master's clothes, blocked the young master in a foul-smelling ditch, and forced the young master to continue to go back to the Qilin Palace to get them money and spiritual treasures. He also scolded the young master for being useless and coquettish, unable to establish a firm foothold in the Qilin Palace, and being easily seen through his identity, wasting the hard work and ingenuity of the Ba Snake Clan. The young master refused to return to the Qilin Palace, so they put the hardest and most tiring work Give it to the young master, let the young master wear tattered clothes, eat the most inferior meals, and serve the elders. The young master did not find his relatives, but only encountered a group of wolves who ate people without spitting out their bones. The elder of Heipeng felt a little compassion and told the young master that his parents had passed away many years ago. The only person in the clan who is related to the young master by blood is a cousin named Liansheng."

"The young master was completely disheartened, and while the elders were not paying attention, he escaped from the Ba Snake Clan and returned to the Qilin Palace. After returning, the young master's temperament changed drastically. , learn to cook food, learn to brew wine, learn various skills, to please the patriarch's wife, to please the young master. Although the little son was arrogant and self-willed when he was young, he has always been a warm-hearted child. If the little unicorn of the same age encounters difficulties, he will definitely He will give money to help, and when he meets the sick and weak old people on the side of the road, he will feel sympathy. However, after that time, the little son became selfish and indifferent, and no longer cared about other people's affairs."

"The young master also told his subordinates that on the way back, he met a celestial being with superb celestial arts, who used celestial arts to help him seal the wound. But the celestial arts couldn't last long, so he still had to think of other ways. Later, when the fourteen states opened mountains to accept disciples, the young master became soft-spoken and begged the young master to bring him here with him."

"The subordinates know that the young master came to Fourteen States not only to learn from a teacher, but more importantly, to find a place for himself that can protect him, so that he doesn't have to live under the fence. The young master encountered many problems when he was young. Poverty, although it is a bit selfish, but in the end, it is all for survival."

After finishing speaking, Lingshu bowed his head to the ground.

Weeping uncontrollably, he said: "Now that the young master has gone, this subordinate has no face to go back to the Qilin Palace. This subordinate has been with the young master since he was a child, and is called master servant, but in fact, his subordinates have always regarded the young master as his own brother. The subordinates have nothing to worry about now, the only one who is ashamed is the young master, and this subordinate begs the emperor for permission to let Lingshu stay in Xuexiao Palace and guard the tomb for the young master."

**

On this day, it snowed in Fourteen States without warning.

Chang Yuan was sitting in the hall, drinking wine one cup after another, watching the heavy snow falling outside the hall, his thoughts agitated, and he stayed up all night.

"Your Majesty."

Sanskrit came in, holding a small sapphire jug in his hand.

"This is what Lingshu found in the cold pool of the Hall of Thoughts when he sorted out the young master's belongings. It should be given to the king by the young master."

Chang Yuan was startled.

After taking a look, a faint fragrance of lotus flower wine diffused into the tip of the nose.

Two lines of words were crookedly written on the jug: For Master, 30-year-old lotus flower nectar.One year to go.

The next day, Mr. Nanshan came to Xuexiao Palace and looked at his friend who was standing with his sleeves in the heavy snow: "I heard from Sanskrit that you want to close the gate of Xuexiao Palace? Have you made up your mind?"

Chang Yuan nodded.

"From then on, Xuexiao Mountain will never be opened."

"My lord, I will not accept any more disciples."

Nanshan Jun sighed.

"Since you've made up your mind, I won't force you. Zhang Yuan, you can't be resurrected after death. I know you feel ashamed of that little guy. However, you will continue to live this day, so you have to think about it. In the future If anyone comes to apprentice in your name, I will block it for you."

"Thanks."

Zhang Yuan picked up the wine cup and took another sip of the strong wine.
