The best building in Shangye Village is of course the village ancestral hall.
Although it was not the day to worship ancestors, hundreds of people in the village, except those who went into the mountains to hunt, all came to the ancestral hall, and they were surrounded by people coming and going.
They welcomed Qin Yun home with simple enthusiasm.
Qin Yun also prepared gifts for everyone. The candies and rouge gouache he brought back from Yanjing were luxuries that no one in the village had ever seen. Every household also received a big red envelope, which contained enough money for their comfort.
Live a comfortable and subsistence life for a few years.
All the villagers happily accepted Qin Yun's generosity, and no one refused with any pretense. The villagers in this remote mountain village were very simple and honest. When Qin Yang and Qin Yun wandered here in desolation,
I also received care and help from the villagers.
The village was as lively as the Chinese New Year.
Seeing everyone's happy faces, Qin Yun also felt peaceful and joyful in his heart. He felt that his adventurous battle from death to life was completely worth it, and he felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction in his heart.
He asked the old village chief about the current situation in the village, and also talked about many things with Mu Tieyi.
That night, Qin Yun stayed in his old house.
Although it has been away for several years, this old house is still intact. It can even be seen that it is regularly cleaned. The small yard is clean without any dead leaves or branches, and the simple furniture in the room is also there.
Qin Yun knew in his heart that this should be the meaning of the old village chief, thinking that he would come back.
The cold moonlight shone in through the bars of the window. Qin Yun was lying on the wooden bed. He couldn't help but think of his grandfather Qin Yang's voice and smile, and what he said to himself before he died.
"Your real grandfather has passed away a long time ago. Your father's name is Qin Yuanfeng, and he is a descendant of the Qin family of Dayan. Your mother, Yan Mingyue, is a member of the Yan family of the Dayan royal family!"
"Your father died in a bloody battle to stop the killer. Your mother was injured and captured. I took you to escape desperately. I hid and settled here to escape the Yan killer."
"I have inquired in many ways. Your mother should still be imprisoned in the Imperial Palace of Emperor Yan. She gave everything for you back then. You must rescue her no matter what, and reunite mother and son!"
…
Nowadays, things have changed, and he is no longer the rural boy he was back then. But he has not yet fulfilled Qin Yang's last wish.
That night, Qin Yun thought a lot and tossed and turned in bed until very late before falling asleep.
The next morning, he got up very early without eating breakfast. He went directly to the cemetery at the foot of the mountain outside the village.
In front of Qin Yang's tomb, Qin Yun placed the sacrifices he had prepared in advance, lit three sticks of earthen incense, knelt down and knelt in his heart and said silently: "Grandpa, please wait. I will definitely save my mother!"
After the worship was completed, he felt much calmer and slowly walked along the foot of the mountain to Han Tan. It was at the bottom of Han Tan that Qiu discovered the Heaven-Mending Stone, which completely changed his destiny.
Seeing the familiar waterfall and familiar pool, Qin Yun couldn't help but feel excited.
He took off his shirt like he did before, and jumped into the cold water with a sudden leap!
The whole person was suddenly immersed in the bone-cold Tan water, and all the pores in Qin Yun's body suddenly shrank and closed. The powerful innate Nine Yang Qi circulated in the body at an accelerated rate, and immediately resisted the invasion of cold power.
For Qin Yun now, the Hantan that once tortured him was almost the same as an ordinary pool. He easily dived down dozens of feet, and the pool became dark and deep.
Suddenly, a huge black shadow rushed towards him, bringing with it a surging undercurrent!
Qin Yun turned around calmly, opened his arms and held him tightly in his arms.
This shadow is of course the red carp that lives in the cold pond and is Qin Yun's childhood friend. If it hadn't saved him in time, Qin Yun would have sunk to the bottom of the pond when he obtained the Heaven-Mending Stone.
Qin Yun was very happy to see that his friend was safe and sound.
Just like when he was a child, one person and one fish were playing and chasing each other in the water. Now Qin Yun has the strength of the innate realm. He can stay at the bottom of the water for a long time by relying on the circulation of Qi, without the need to float up for breath from time to time.
He seemed to have returned to the carefree days of the past, completely forgetting the passage of time.
After playing for a while, the red carp suddenly turned around and swam quickly in another direction.
Qin Yun thought it was leaving, so he waved to it to say goodbye.
Unexpectedly, the red carp swam a certain distance and then turned back and then turned around again.
Qin Yun's heart moved and he immediately swam with it.
This Hantan was very deep but not particularly large. Qin Yun knew it well, but after following the red carp and swimming downwards for a certain distance, the latter suddenly got into a black shadow.
Qin Yun hesitated for a moment, then followed suit and got in.
He was shocked to find that there was a secret passage hidden deep in the rock wall, which was winding and leading to nowhere. The dark stone wall was dotted with scattered ores that could glow, allowing him to barely see the passage clearly.
The whole picture.
When Qin Yun was a child, he once heard the villagers say that Hantan could reach the sea. Now he knows that although it is impossible, there are still underground rivers and underground passages.
He swam behind Red Lip for almost half an hour, and felt that he should be deep under the mountain. There was an undercurrent but it was not intense, and the chill was heavier than in the original pool.
Just as I was thinking about it, the front suddenly became clear.
Wow!
The red carp suddenly floated up, flicked its tail vigorously and jumped out of the water. Its graceful figure drew long arcs in the air, and then fell heavily back into the water, stirring up countless water droplets and splashes.
Qin Yun also emerged from the water, and the scene in front of him stunned him.
What appeared in front of Qin Yun was a huge claustrophobic space, which should be a cave hidden deep underground.
There are black stone walls all around, but just like the passage in the water, the rock walls are inlaid with countless luminous crystals, densely packed like stars in the night sky, and the light emitted makes it no longer dark here.
The location where Qin Yun is located is also a shabby building, its area is larger and wider than the one outside.
But none of these were enough to surprise him. What really surprised Qin Yun was that a huge white skeleton was displayed in the open space on the shore a few feet away in front of him!
Looking at it, this skeleton is more than ten feet long. It is entangled on the ground and towering like a hill. Although it has no flesh, muscles, bones, skin, membranes and scales, it can still vaguely see the strength it had before birth.
Especially its huge head, with the long horns inlaid on the top that pierce the dome, and the eyes that turned into two big holes are dark, as if it will wake up at any time and let out an earth-shattering roar!
dragon!
A legendary name flashed in Qin Yun's mind instantly.
The dragon is the most powerful spiritual beast. According to legend, from ancient times to the ancient times, the dragon's figure often appeared on the vast continent. It was known as the vehicle of the gods and an invincible powerful existence. Many tribes regarded the dragon as a totem beast.
worship.
But this kind of powerful spiritual beast suddenly disappeared one day. From then on, they were no longer seen in the vast nine states, leaving only countless legends and various spiritual beasts and monsters with a trace of their blood.
Qin Yun has only read descriptions of dragons in classic books and knows that dragons can be divided into more than a dozen types, including golden dragons, flame dragons, frost dragons, storm dragons, blue dragons, red dragons, etc., and there are also different levels.
High and low.
There is no doubt that, except for a dragon, no creature has such huge remains!
Could this place where Chi Li brought him in be a dragon's cave?
Qin Yun suddenly discovered that there was a layer of dark golden gravel underneath the dragon's skeleton. He could vaguely see something buried there, emitting a light that made him feel familiar.
Ice Chi Pearl!
He immediately realized that it was definitely an ice bead!
The dozen or so Ice Chi Pearls that Qin Yun once owned were all playthings given to him by Red Carp. Only now did he understand the true source of these precious orbs, and also knew that this skeleton belonged to the Ice Chi Dragon.
The Ice Chi Dragon belongs to the water dragon clan. It can be promoted and transformed into a frost dragon. It is also considered a high-level dragon clan. It usually only lives in the world of ice and snow. How it came to settle here and die will always be a mystery.
Now that he saw the ice bead, he would be sorry if he didn't come back. Qin Yun immediately swam towards the shore quickly.
Wow!
A few feet away from the shore, he suddenly jumped up into the water and landed next to the dragon carcass.
But at this time, a sudden change occurred!
Tsk tsk tsk!
Only three sharp sounds of breaking through the air were heard suddenly, and three golden lights shot toward Qin Yun in the sky almost simultaneously. The speed was unbelievable, and they shot in front of him in an instant.
Qin Yunren had not yet landed in the air. He had no time to dodge and immediately drew out the Nu Cang Sword. He shouted loudly, swung the sword and shook out three sword flowers to face the flying hidden weapon.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
With three crisp sounds of metal impact, the three points of golden light were all knocked away by Qin Yun's breaking arrow style.
However, the force of the impact also caused Qin Yun to fall ahead of schedule and land next to the dragon's head skeleton. The tiger's mouth of his right hand holding the Nu Cang Sword was slightly numb, which showed how strong the power contained in the golden light was.
He saw about twenty or thirty steps in front of him, and he didn't know when three golden giant bees the size of a fist had appeared. They were hovering in the air with their wings flickering, and their red bee eyes were dead.
Staring at Qin Yun, he exuded an almost demonic light that made people shudder.
Buzz!
Qin Yun's eyes moved forward and he saw black cave entrances evenly distributed on the surface of the rock wall dozens of steps away, and identical golden bees were flying out of the caves!
