Chapter Thirty

When I was still young, a man grabbed my arm and threw me to the end of the line..."

Although ten years have passed, the horrific scene of that day still lingers: amidst the hurried footsteps, the young female baby was thrown to the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face, and lay weakly on the ground, unable to move. Qiongqi issued

A horrifying howl was approaching her. At that moment, she suddenly saw a black shadow leaping over her small body and rushing towards Qiongqi. The man waved his arms and shouted loudly.

Saying "Monster, come here!", she ran in the opposite direction to the team, actually using herself to lure the monster away. At the same moment, a pair of warm hands picked her up, and vaguely, she felt

Her face felt cold, and a drop of cold water fell on her cheek. Seriously injured, she struggled to open her eyes wide, only to realize that it was her tearful mother who was hugging her tightly, and that the man who diverted the monster away was herself.

's daddy...

Seeing Yan Ruoshi, he was silent for a long time, his eyes were slightly red. Xiao Xingzhi reached out his hand and held his wife's slender fingers tightly in his palm. Warm heat came from his fingertips, and Yan Ruoshi came back to his senses from the past scene.

First he gave Xiao Xingzhi an "I'm fine" look, then he smiled apologetically to everyone and continued:

"The moment Qiongqi approached, my father lured the beast away, while my mother hugged me and ran away to the other side. At that moment, I suddenly heard Qiongqi let out a shrill howl. It turned out to be

Several masters of crossing the Sin Valley happened to pass by and worked together to subdue the ferocious beast. My mother hurriedly hugged me and turned back to find my father, but before I could reach Qiongqi, my mother covered my eyes. But... I

I saw from my mother's trembling fingers that my father was covered in blood and had been bitten into two pieces...

"Seeing that Qiongqi was killed, the townspeople rejoiced, especially the middle-aged men, who all celebrated loudly. My mother held me in her arms and did not go back to the group of fellow villagers. She handed me over to a ferryman.

Senior of Sin Valley, please take care of me. I remember the last words my mother said to me were: Shishi, promise mother, don’t look at it.

"I listened to my mother and closed my eyes tightly without looking. Soon after, I heard a scream from the townspeople. Later I found out that my mother hid a cutting knife in her sleeve and walked toward

The man who threw me out stabbed that person in the chest with a knife. Then, amidst everyone's terrified screams, she walked over to her father's body and committed suicide."

Hearing this, Mo Bai sighed softly, Bi Fei shook his head sadly, Gui Haiming's face was as cold as frost, and Xiaozhu lowered his eyes. She felt her heart sink. She wanted to say something to comfort her, but she couldn't. She could imagine that,

It was with such complicated emotions that the mother of the Yan family entrusted her daughter to the warriors from the Valley of Sins, and with what emotions she told her daughter to close her eyes, then kill her enemy alone, and kill herself as a husband...

But I heard Yan Ruoshi continue: "... After inquiring about the cause and effect, the seniors from the Sin Valley took me back to the Sin Valley when they saw that my parents were dead and I was all alone. But from that day on, my

My eyes were unable to see. As soon as I opened my eyes, what I saw was the bloody mist in the sky and the tragic scene of my father cutting me off. Only by closing my eyes tightly could I not be bothered by the bloody scene. The man who took me into the valley

Senior Sin Valley, he originally wanted to teach me martial arts, but seeing that I was blind and frail since childhood, he had no choice but to give up. Therefore, I grew up in Du Sin Valley and did some chores like washing and sweeping. Although I did not devote myself to crossing

I am a disciple of Sin Valley, but the disciples in the Valley are very good to me, especially Sister Lu, who often chats with me and tells me strange things in the world."

"I see," Bi Fei nodded and said, "No wonder Miss Yan is very familiar with the situation of the four factions of the Demon-Slaying Alliance."

Xiaozhu looked at Yan Ruoshi's rippling bright eyes and asked curiously: "Sister Yan, how did your eyes get better afterwards?"

Yan Ruoshi smiled tenderly and turned her gaze to the handsome young man beside her. Xiao Xingzhi, who had been paying attention to her condition, nodded gently to her, rubbed the back of her hand comfortingly, and continued on her behalf:

"Two years ago, the warriors from Dusui Valley talked about slaying demons and protecting the Tao. They bullied me into Bo Feng Mountain and burned my cave for no reason. In anger, I broke into Dusui Valley alone, intending to retaliate with a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye.

The fire burned their sect to the ground. But when I broke into the valley, I saw a blind girl busy sweeping away the dead branches and leaves."

Yan Ruoshi chuckled, and a bright and gentle smile appeared on her slightly pale face: "What's more, when you came, the strong wind blew up, flying sand and rocks, which made the dead leaves fly, which made me miserable.

I'm in such a mess. What's even funnier is that he thought I was kidnapped by the Valley of Sins to be a servant - you don't even think about it, if you really want to kidnap people for work, who would kidnap a blind man?"

The second half of the sentence was directed at Xiao Xingzhi. Compared with the poetic smile, Xiao Xingzhi's handsome face showed a red cloud of embarrassment. I saw this magical beast with the power to call the wind and clouds.

The demon spirit lowered his voice unnaturally at this time: "How can you blame me? I have lived in Befeng Mountain for six hundred years and have never been involved in the world. If I hadn't been bullied by Du Sin Valley, I wouldn't have

Go down the mountain to take revenge. I can only act so arrogantly when I think that Naoshizi's Dusin Valley is a robber's village robbing families and homes."

Listening to his explanation, not to mention Yan Ruoshi, even Xiaozhu couldn't help but chuckle: "Pfft, Mr. Xiao is right! That Dusin Valley acted arrogantly, and used his martial arts skills to make mischief everywhere, and even bullied others.

Isn't my master's residence a place for robbers and bandits? Then, after that, it must be a hero meeting a beauty, falling in love at first sight, or something like that, and this fight won't end."

Listening to Xiaozhu's direct words, Yan Ruoshi looked shy and said softly: "At that time, I couldn't see anything. I only heard a strange voice, saying angrily: 'What a good person to cross the sin valley, but I gave up to this person.

The blind girl is so shameless at work. Come on, I'll take you down the mountain.' I thought he was a new disciple who had misunderstood the master, so he started to complain. So I explained to him, and said...

The master of Dusui Valley killed the man-eating beast Qiongqi and brought me back to the valley to raise me as an adult. When I finished speaking, I couldn't hear his response for a long time. I was thinking about how strange this new disciple was.

, suddenly I felt that the violent evil wind gradually calmed down."

Xiao Xingzhi said sternly: "I originally thought that the people in Dusin Valley who burned my cave for no reason must be a heinous crime. Who knew that these arrogant and arrogant warriors were not evil people who deserved to die. A person's life only lasts a few years.

After ten years, it is inevitable to have a narrow vision. I have been practicing for six hundred years, why bother to be like a junior? The anger that originally came from seeking revenge has dissipated."

"Master Xiao is very sensible," Bi Fei couldn't help but sigh. "As for crossing the Sin Valley, it is actually not provoking trouble for no reason. In fact, in the past two years, the seal on the shore of the East China Sea has become increasingly unstable. In order to prevent Yinglong and Xiang Liu from breaking the seal,

Only then will the Demon-Slaying Alliance run around. On the one hand, they are looking for the fairy treasure Yunsheng Mirror to reshape the seal. On the other hand, they hunt the demons and beasts in the world and use the demon spirit inner elixir to strengthen the seal of the East China Sea."

Bi Fei's explanation immediately chilled the atmosphere: Gui Haiming's face was as cold as frost, and his eyes were as sharp as icy blades. Mo Bai's eyebrows were slightly frowned, showing that he had wandered too far. When Xiaozhu saw this, he knew Gui Hai

Ming thought of her parents' blood feud again, but she didn't know what Master Mo Bai was thinking about. She was slightly suspicious, and changed the topic while saying something, and then asked Yan Ruoshi: "What happened next? It was Mr. Xiao who cured your eye disease.

?”

"That's right," Yan Ruoshi nodded lightly and said, "At that time, Sister Lu often went out to do business and rarely had time to talk to me. And I didn't understand martial arts, and I rarely resonated with other disciples. Xiao Lang often saw me alone.

He would come and chat with me while he was sitting sullenly in the back hill. I didn’t know what he looked like, let alone that he was a mythical beast and demon. I only knew that he was a good man with a sharp mouth and a heartless heart. Although his words were sharp and merciless,

He has a good face, but he is a very good person. In order to let me see the light again, he would send medicine into the valley every evening, and the blood mist in front of my eyes gradually dissipated little by little. Every time I asked him what he was using

He always avoided answering what kind of medicine it was. Once, I hid a small sip of the medicine and showed it to the doctor in the valley. The doctor was shocked when he saw it. He told me that it was the scales of the red turtle...

…”

"Huh? Red turtle?" Xiaozhu said in surprise, "I have seen it in Master's collection of books. It is a strange fish in the "Nanshan Sutra". Eating it can cure all kinds of diseases. But it lives in Jiyi Lake, and the terrain of this lake is

It is steep, accompanied by strange beasts, and extremely dangerous. Even if Mr. Xiao is the Feilian beast, he will have to fight a battle, and he may not be able to escape unscathed..."

Having said this, Xiaozhu looked at Xiao Xingzhi clearly and said with a smile: "But, for the beauty's bright eyes, no matter how difficult and dangerous it is, Mr. Xiao must not care about it."

Yan Ruoshi's face turned red and he said softly: "From then on, I realized that he was not a disciple of Dusin Valley. I wonder which disciple has such ability to get the Red Rooster from the Jiyi Lake?"

Where are the scales? That day, he gave me medicine again, but I refused to take it anymore. I didn’t want him to spend all his energy and risk seeking medicine for me. But he thought that I noticed that he was not an ordinary person, so he was afraid of him.

, so he became furious and left angrily..."

The scene of that day was still fresh in Yan Ruoshi's memory: she could not see anything, and she could only feel the cold wind around her, almost freezing into her bones. That familiar voice was filled with anger that she had never experienced before. She heard him

He said coldly:

"Yes, Xiao is indeed a demon. Unexpectedly, the affection we have shared over the past six months can no longer compete with the word 'alien'. In this case, I have no intention of making things difficult for you. From then on, the love has ceased, and Xiao will not appear again."

That’s it. Farewell.”

The ordinary word "goodbye" was like a cold cone piercing her heart. She wanted to open her mouth to defend, but Xiao Xingzhi came and went like the wind and disappeared in an instant. She shouted bitterly

, but could not find the voice of a friend. At that moment, the loneliness and loneliness she had never experienced before made her feel helpless and helpless. She felt as if she had returned to that day when she was a child, when her mother ordered her to shut up tightly.

Eyes, so, in the deep darkness, the person closest to her in the world quietly left her and never saw each other again...

To this day, recalling the helpless feeling at that time, Yan Ruoshi still felt a little cold in her heart. She couldn't help but tighten her fingers, squeezed her husband's warm palm, and then continued:

"I didn't want to be misunderstood by Xiao Lang, and I didn't want to end our friendship with him, so I decided to go down the mountain to find him. I asked Sister Lu if she had ever heard of the demon spirit of the wind. Sister Lu then told me,

It turned out that they had burned down Fei Lian's cave, and wanted to capture him alive, but they couldn't find it. It was only then that I understood why Xiao Lang appeared in the Dusin Valley, which also made me more convinced that Xiao Lang was absolutely dead.

He is not a villain. Even if he came to seek revenge in anger, after finding out the reason, he did not pursue the grudge of burning down the cave, but instead spent all his efforts on me, a mortal..."

"Although I am blind, my heart is not blind. I can feel the sincerity and sincerity of anyone who treats me. From then on, I made up my mind, even if the road was difficult and dangerous, I must find Xiao Lang and show him

Tell him that I have never had the slightest grudge against him because he is not an ordinary person."

Speaking of this, Yan Ruoshi smiled lightly, turned her gaze to the young man beside her, and said softly: "I secretly went down the mountain, thinking that I would encounter countless difficulties, but I never expected that the next evening, he would come with the wind again.

, and silently handed the decoction made from red clam scales into my hand..."

"Pfft!" Xiaozhu couldn't help laughing. Seeing Xiao Xingzhi's face showing embarrassment, Xiaozhu quickly covered his lips with his left hand, shook his right hand, and said with a smile: "Ahem! Even though Master Fei Lian said, 'No more.

Appeared', but since you can't see Miss Yan, he naturally doesn't appear in front of your eyes, which doesn't violate the preamble."

Everyone smiled, but Xiao Xingzhi looked embarrassed, and said with a smile like a poem: "Mr. Xiao, he has always been hard-spoken and soft-hearted, and he speaks mercilessly, but he still kept my eyes in mind and brought the decoction.

I was afraid that he would come and go like the wind, turn around and leave again, so in a hurry, I grabbed his wrist and begged him to stay and listen to my explanation. But in fact, my mind was in a mess at that time.

I don’t know how to express it, I just said randomly that I am willing to accompany him for the rest of my life.”

"Aiya..." Xiaozhu responded with a smile. Mo Bai also raised the corners of his lips, and a soft smile was outlined on his lips. Bi Fei smiled and teased: "There is a saying in the Book of Songs: 'A graceful lady, a gentleman is so arrogant.

', I didn't expect Miss Yan to sing a song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix"."

All three of them were smiling, but Gui Haiming frowned, his face was gloomy, and he remained silent. But at this moment, Xiaozhu's attention was focused on Yan Ruoshi, listening to her story with interest.

He secretly talked to Xiao Xingzhi, so Xiaozhu did not notice Gui Haiming's strange behavior.
