After everyone left, Grandma Li took him into the house and gave him water to eat. Li Yu looked at the food in front of him and couldn't believe that he had really settled down.

Grandma Li held his hand and asked gently, "Little baby, where is your parents?"

After hearing this, Li Yu did not answer immediately, but lowered his head and said nothing. Grandma Li guessed it when she saw this. Just as she was about to reveal it, Li Yu said weakly, "They are dead."

Grandma Li guessed that his parents might be dead, but she still couldn't bear it when she heard him say it. But some things should be asked, not doubting his origin, but trying to see if she could help him find his family back.

Grandma Li asked again, "Then are there any other people in your family?"

Now, Li Yu did not hesitate and immediately shook his head and said, "No."

After hearing Li Yu's answer, Grandma Li couldn't help but cry. She didn't dare to think about how such a young child survived the army of fleeing, and how much suffering he suffered during those days.

Grandma Li took his hand, pulled him into her arms, wiped away the mud on her face, and said kindly, "Then you will live with me in the future, okay?"

He raised his head rarely, looked at Grandma Li, and said a little disbelief, "Why do you want to take me in?"

Grandma Li smiled gently and said, "Did you forget it? Did you save an old lady in the west of the village two days ago?"

The child is very smart. It can be seen from the fact that he could survive in such a world at the age of three. Of course, he did not forget what happened two days ago, but he didn't know what had to do with taking him in.

"I remember, and I also knew that the old lady was you, but what does it matter?"

Grandma Li didn't expect that he would be so organized in his conversation. She continued, "I fainted under a tree when I returned to the village. Before I fainted, I thought that this time I might die. The people in the village wanted me to die earlier, so how could I save me, but later I felt someone feed me some water. I saw that it was probably a child in a vague way, and then I saw that his eyes looked gray. I thought who would help me, but I didn't expect that I would meet you so soon." After a pause, I continued, "So, you have kindness to me, why don't I repay you!"

The child understood a little after hearing this, but he didn't understand it very much. At that time, he just felt that someone was lying on the side of the road. When he saw it, he couldn't ignore it. If it was no matter what the difference was from those who bullied him before, this was the first time someone told him this.

Then, Grandma Li thought of something, and continued with red eyes, "Actually, I am not leaving you behind just because you have kindness to me. When I saw you saluting, I thought of the way my child came back to school for the first time."

The child looked at the old lady who was willing to take him in front of him and cried. He wanted to reach out to wipe her tears, but he thought that his hands were dirty, so he wiped his body hard, then wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Don't cry, you will get better and better in the future."

Grandma Li looked at the little man in front of her to comfort her, and her heart was soft and the smile on her face became more and more gentle.

Grandma Li said, "It's us, we will get better and better together."

From then on, the child settled in the village. Grandma Li sent him to school, tailored clothes and cooked for him, and provided him with a place to settle down. He also took care of Grandma Li and did things within his ability, which would make her happy. The two of them lived on each other's life. Although it was a bit hard, it was obvious that they were both very happy.

The Taoist continued to look at the time painting, accelerating the flow of the scene. From the age of three to the age of five, his days flashed in front of the Taoist's eyes. Although the days were still hard, compared to children, it was also a home for shelter from the wind and rain. Similarly, for the old woman, life was no longer so lonely and deserted, and there was also the warmth and care between the two of them at home.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Not long after such a life, they were taken away by the drought and mountain spirits two years later.

The Taoist took action to let the picture stop at the time he wanted to see. This time was six months before the Taoist's time. At that time, the people in the village were already leaving. The old woman was so weak that she closed the door, then went to the stove hole in the kitchen, and reached out to dig it in. The child was right beside her, a little worried, as if she was afraid of something coming.

The woman finally took it out, and it was a few taels of silver wrapped in a piece of broken steps.

The woman pulled the child aside and gasped in a low voice, "Xiao Yu, this is the money that the grandma has saved over the years. Although it is not much, she has some confidence in holding it on her. Remember to hide it well, don't let others know, otherwise it will be a problem whether she can keep it or not."

After saying that, he stuffed the money into the child's hands, and the child hid back with his hands, refusing to take it if he wanted to.

Seeing this, the grandma knew what the child was thinking. She was moved and couldn't bear it. She continued, "Xiao Yu, please follow them. Grandma is old and can't walk anymore. You are different. You are still so young, so you shouldn't have died here. Listen to the grandma, go out, and go out and you may still be able to survive."

The child still hid back, lowered his head, and shook his head desperately.

Seeing this, the grandma did not continue to force him, but pulled him into her arms, hugged him gently, and said softly, "Grandma knows that you don't want to leave me, and grandma doesn't want to leave you, but there is no way. Grandma is old, and going with you will drag you down."

The child finally spoke, and he said firmly, "I am very powerful, grandma. I have also been wandering around before. I know what to eat and who to hide, so don't be afraid, I will take care of you, grandma. Don't be afraid."

The old woman felt very uncomfortable after hearing this, but she still held back the tears in her eyes and said, "Of course grandma knows that you will take care of me, but you are still so young and older. When you walk with you, you will drag you to death." After that, she asked him with a smile, "Do you know what death is?"

The child said with a slightly sad look, "I know. I have seen many people fall down as they walk, and I have seen people lying on the roadside being eaten by wild dogs and crows. Those who died, they don't know the pain."

This is the first time an old woman has heard a child talk about these things. In the past, she was afraid that the child would feel pain and sad when she mentioned the child's past, so she tried to avoid mentioning these things. But today she realized that the child had experienced much more than she had imagined, and she didn't know how he survived it before.

The old woman was confused and thought. When the child saw that the old woman didn't say anything, she touched her face with her hands. The old woman came to her senses and looked at the child's gray eyes and said, "Aren't Xiao Yu afraid?"

After hearing this, the child said softly, "I was afraid before." As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't know what he thought of, and his face regained his spirit and increased his voice, "But now I'm not afraid." At the end, he added, "Now there is a grandma, and I'm no longer alone, so I'm not afraid."

Later, the grandma stopped forcing the child to leave. The two of them stayed in a simple house and went on day by day.

Often, only when it comes to life and death can people's hearts be seen, whether it is family or relatives. Those with consciences have to take away the elderly at home, and those who are unscrupulous and can take away all the people at home, except for their older parents.

In the end, the old man who was still alive in the village watched the child guarding the old woman and never left her, and felt uncomfortable. They did not expect that in the end, they were abandoned by the child they raised. Instead, the child picked up by Li Wangshi never left her and took care of her every day.

Finally, only the alive were old women and children, and the village became a deserted village.

The old woman became a living dead man, lying in bed every day, waiting to die. The child became a lonely ghost, shuttled between various paths every day, hiding food she found from somewhere, and eating it with the grandma. In fact, when the grandma was still sane, she forced the child again, but the child was stubbornly guarding her bed and refused to leave.

"Why don't you leave?"

"I don't want to leave Grandma."

......

After reading the Taoist, he thought quietly for a long time. He was thinking, is the world he really wanted to see after escaping the world? And does that person know about these things? If his escaping the world brings such a result, then what is the meaning of his concession?

What he saw was not the scenery of the same place, but there were more or less the same situation in other places. However, due to his current situation, he could not do more to change the world. He had to turn into a long sigh.

He thought maybe it was time to make a change.

The people in Changlin City have a hard time. The wealthy families arranged for their children to escape to other places with some of their property, in order to have the worst result and leave their own incense heritage.

Don’t the city lord want to leave? He really wants to. It’s a pity that he can’t leave.

On the one hand, because he was in his position, he had to guard the city. Even if all the people left, he could not leave his post without hesitation. At least Changlin City still had a large city protection formation. This formation connected to the four mountains and formed a siege against Hongquan Mountain, which could just block the disaster. On the other hand, he could not leave naturally because someone did not allow him to leave.

This is a two-way siege. The disaster traps him and prevents him from leaving. He is also trapping the disaster and prevents the disaster from spreading outward.

But how long can this method last? Wu Shouzhong thought about this question, but he was powerless. Some things cannot be done by human resources, or there is, they are just not at a high position.

When he was in a state of boredom, he didn't know that the disaster in Changlin City had attracted others.

Changlin City is surrounded by mountains, and Hongquan Mountain only occupies one corner of it. The disaster spreads outward with Hongquan Mountain as the center. Then, Changlin City is the hub of the city-shaking formation, connecting the four mountains to form an invisible cover, so that the disaster cannot spread outward.

Therefore, if the person inside wants to hide the truth, he only needs to ensure that the protective cover does not break and the person inside should not go out to report it, so that the weather in Changlin City can be guaranteed to be a good scene.

But there are always things that people can't calculate. Middle-aged Taoist counts one, and three young people counts one.

Lie Yankong and the other two were originally passing by the forest in Changlin City. However, the spiritual pet of Shui Linglong among the three heard that there would be spiritual objects here, so they ran in first. After entering the jurisdiction of Changlin City, the more they walked in, they felt the unusualness of the place and their expressions became more and more cold. There was a barrier in the entire Changlin City, which formed a siege and shielding of everything that happened inside.

When they arrived at a village and saw the abandoned and withered scene in front of them, one of them could not help but ask.

"Senior Brother Lie, this place is so abnormal. Have you heard the people mentioned it above?" Shui Linglong asked coldly after using the method of exploring the ground.

Lie Yankong probably knew what Shui Linglong meant. According to what they saw along the way, the village was withered, the wilderness was born, and the population was not a single person. It can be imagined that this situation did not happen overnight. But if the incident had happened long ago, then why didn’t anyone report it? The Tianjian people didn’t come down to investigate? If you think about it carefully, you can find many problems.

Although the three of them were temporary investigation teams, their personalities were almost revealed in the last mission.

Although Shui Linglong's appearance is cold, he hates evil in his bones; the other person, Lu Ming, doesn't talk much, but he is like his sword, with his sharpness hidden in the sheath. Lie Yankong may be because his growth environment is different from them, so he thinks more, so his personality is more round and calm.

Lu Ming didn't say anything, but he could think of his expression as he probably had the same idea as Shui Linglong, so after Shui Linglong asked, he turned his head and looked at Lie Yankong.

Lieyan's hollow heart was heavy, but he did not hear the person mentioned above mentioned this. But his identity was destined to not give more opinions before the matter was clear, so he did not answer directly.

Lie Yankong checked the jade slips with his divine thoughts and found that this place was not far from Changlin City, so he said to the two, "This place is not far from Changlin City. Let's go to the lord's mansion here to see it."

When the two of them heard him say this, they thought he had some concerns, but they thought of Lie Yankong's repeated care for them in the previous mission. Although they had opinions, they held back and didn't say anything, and just waited to see the city lord and ask carefully.

The three of them decided to delay their return to Tianjing and head straight to the city lord's mansion.

Just as the three of them were flying in the sky with their swords, Lu Ming suddenly felt something. He looked in one direction on the ground and felt that there was another person below. This seemed very incredible in their eyes. From the moment they entered the country, the more they walked towards Changlin City, the less they could see the living people. But who knew that they could still see mortals in the center of the disaster.

After Lu Ming explained his perception to the other two, the other two felt incredible. After thinking for a while, they flew to the ground to check what was going on.

Li Yu was originally hiding in the weeds, but suddenly he felt a gaze staring at him. He didn't think much, but could only let go of his steps and run forward. He didn't know what that gaze was. He only knew that it wouldn't be happy to be stared at for no reason. In order to live, he could only run. But how could he run than a practitioner flying with a sword?

Just as the three of them were about to chase him, he fell down due to lack of physical strength and staggering. When he struggled to raise his head, he saw three young men in extraordinary clothes standing in front of him.

When Li Yu looked up at them, they also looked at Li Yu's eyes. After seeing this, the three of them paused in their hearts. The child's eyes were actually gray.

Shui Linglong immediately used the method of detecting evil spirits in the Shenshui Palace - Shui Xinghen. In fact, each sect has its own way of detecting, but if you have the intention to hide, some methods cannot be used. The water traces in the Shenshui Palace take their marks and trace their traces. Even if you hide your true identity, there will be traces. Then, you can peel off the thread and find his true origin.

After investigation, the two looked at Shui Linglong. Shui Linglong shook her head, and the three of them felt a little relieved. Lu Ming was originally attracted, but he felt suspicious. After seeing the child and carefully examining the child, he exclaimed a shock, "Hey!"

Lie Yankong thought he had discovered something, so he asked, "What did Junior Brother Lu find?"

Lu Ming calmed his expression and said lightly, "It's nothing, it's just that he has the resources of a sword embryo."
