The rain shattered the earth and merged into circles of ripples, making it difficult to see clearly, because the creatures of this earth originally existed in each ripple...
Su Ming looked at the two cold figures walking in the distance. In the past dusk and now in the darkness, they were getting closer and closer. As they came, a cold air hit his face and spread.
, making the cold rain even cooler.《》.
The thunder in the sky disappeared at this time, as if it had retreated in the cold, hiding in the dark night and unwilling to come out.
Only the sound of rain falling to the ground and the sound of footsteps gradually became clearer in the rainy night, and gradually reached the ears of the clown's father, causing the middle-aged man to subconsciously raise his head.
What he saw was the two thin figures walking in the rain and arriving in front of the house, in front of Su Ming and himself.
"You are..." The clown's father trembled, and his body trembled a little when he stood up. Su Ming quickly stood up to support him, and looked at the two approaching people coldly.
He could see that there was no murderous intention in the arrival of these two people. Otherwise, it would be easy for these two immortals to destroy the village.
"Kneel down and listen to the announcement!" The one on the left of the two people had a sharp voice. When he suddenly spoke, the temperature around him suddenly became cold again. After all, the clown's father was just a mortal. His face was shocked by this voice.
He immediately turned pale, and he suddenly remembered that eight years ago, his eldest son was also taken away by someone dressed like this on a rainy night.
At the same time, Xu's voice was so sharp that it caused the surrounding temperature to drop and spread into the room, causing the sleeping clown and his mother to wake up from their sleep.
Su Ming's eyes flashed invisibly. If he had been at the peak of his cultivation, these two immortals would have been killed with just one finger. But now, his cultivation is still slowly recovering, and he doesn't know how long it will take.
Only then can he completely reach the peak, but even so. With his cultivation level now restored to 10%, it is not difficult to kill these two people.
"Junior Brother Zuo!" Of the two thin men in black, the one on the right spoke in a deep voice and glanced at the companion on the left, as if he was a little displeased with what he had just said.
"This old man, Chen Daxi, is your eldest son?" The man in black on the right turned to look at the clown's father who was being supported by Su Ming. He also glanced at Su Ming from the corner of his eye, but didn't pay attention.
As he spoke, he took off the black robe on his head, revealing a pale face that looked about forty years old. He had an ordinary appearance, except for the faint blue light in his eyes.
The clown's father was trembling. If he hadn't been supported by Su Ming, he would have collapsed due to the cold air at this moment. But when he heard the name Chen Daxi, he seemed to gain strength all of a sudden.
"Yes... Xi'er is my eldest son, he... he..." Joker's father's voice trembled. He didn't know what happened, but from the other party's tone, he felt an indescribable sting.
.
"Chen Daxi is dead!" The one who answered the clown's father was the sharp voice on the left. The moment these words were spoken, the moment they fell into the ears of the clown's father, the middle-aged man froze there, seemingly confused.
A stream of vitality dissipated from his body, making him look as if he had suddenly aged a lot. Two lines of tears fell from his eyes and fell into the ripples on the ground, making them indistinguishable.
It was at this time that the sound of falling was heard in the house. It was the clown's mother who heard these words when she walked out of the room and passed out.
The clown was standing aside, staring blankly at the two thin men in black outside the room. The previous voice was still echoing in her ears. This weak body seemed to have lost its soul at this moment. As his face turned pale, it seemed like her
Everything turned pale.
"Old man, Junior Brother Chen has excellent talents and is loved by Elder Zhao of the sect. He personally accepted him as a disciple. However, a few days ago, Junior Brother Chen died unexpectedly. The two of us were ordered by Elder Zhao to remember Junior Brother Chen's past friendship and come here.
Notice." The man in black on the right said in a deep voice. After speaking, he took out a package from his arms and placed it under the eaves.
"This is the property that Junior Brother Chen has accumulated over the years. It is of no use to us monks, but for you mortals, it can make your life better."
Although the words of the man on the right were calm, there was a sigh in his expression. When he looked at the clown's family, there was a flash of pity in his eyes. On the contrary, the man on the left was always indifferent.
"Thank you... thank you, Immortal. This is Xi'er's life..." Clown's father shed tears and was about to kneel down to the two monks, but the man on the right waved his sleeves and helped him up.
Su Ming looked at everything that happened. There was no clue in his expression, but he knew very well in his heart that as a sect, it was rare for a sect to send someone to inform his relatives because of the death of a disciple.
This kind of thing is almost impossible, unless... there is something special about this dead person.
Su Ming supported Joker's father and looked back at Joker, who was standing there blankly, and his unconscious mother beside him. The previous warmth of the family collapsed under this tragic news.
"This is your other son, and this girl..." The man on the right of the two men in black looked at Su Ming again. His eyes were like lightning. After one glance, he looked at Su Ming again.
A clown.
"They don't know the details of Joker's family. It seems they didn't inquire, and Joker's brother didn't tell anyone." Su Ming thought silently.
"According to the order of Elder Zhao, I allow you to have another son in your family. The old man will personally accept him as a disciple to pass on the regrets of Junior Brother Chen's death. Congratulations to the old man. I will give you seven days to choose someone to join my Evil Spirit Sect.
Seven days later, when we come back from our trip, we will take him with us." The man in black on the right slowly spoke, and after speaking, he ignored the Clown family and turned to leave.
Next to him, another fellow disciple smiled meaningfully at Su Ming and Joker, and then left.
The rain was getting heavier. The two men in black were walking in the rain curtain. Their figures were blurred and gradually disappeared. Only Su Ming could see that the two men turned into two rainbows and headed towards the sky.
The Evil Spirit Sect they were talking about, Su Ming had seen within this year. It was a mountain shrouded in clouds and mist in the east. Its existence could only be faintly seen when the sky was clear.
But these two Evil Spirit Sect disciples flew towards the west, obviously not returning to the mountain gate. Combining their previous words and Su Ming's analysis, he concluded that these two people had other important matters outside the mountain gate and came here.
I just fulfilled the so-called Elder Zhao's request by the way.
Therefore, they gave seven days instead of appointing someone to take him away immediately. Obviously, if they take a child with them, it will have an impact on their other tasks. It is better to wait until they come back, as they said, to take them with them.
Just go.
For these two people, it was a simple message, but for the Clown family, it was a bolt from the blue. It was bad news that they could not tolerate at all.
Especially after just experiencing the pain of losing a child, another child has to be taken away. This kind of thing is a catastrophe for this honest and kind family.
Clown's father no longer knitted dolls. He was indeed old. With sadness, he came to his wife and shed tears silently.
The clown's mother was gradually waking up at this moment. She stared at her husband in front of her and cried.
Su Ming stood silently beside him, with a complicated look on his face. He could feel the family's sadness and helplessness towards their fate.
The clown didn't cry, she bit her lower lip and lowered her head.
"We can't let Chou'er go with them... She is still a child, she..." Chou'er's mother looked at the clown who was silent and seemed unable to cry. Her heart hurt, as if being cut by a knife, but...
...She had no way to resist.
"Seven days... let's drive all night to get out of here!" Clown's father gritted his teeth, looked at his wife and daughter, and spoke decisively.
"It's useless, dad. I heard people say that immortals are gods. Even if we hide far away, if they want to find us, it will be easy... At that time, if the immortal is offended, our whole family will be punished.
I will punish you, I will join this sect of immortals." The clown murmured softly, she seemed to have grown up a lot all of a sudden.
"If I can survive, if one day I can be like an immortal, I will find out the reason for my brother's death!" The clown clenched his fists and closed his eyes.
"I'll go." In the midst of the family's sadness, Su Ming looked at the rain outside the house, and the pounding rain was like a cry.
His voice reached the ears of the family, causing the clown to open his eyes.
Joker's mother was stunned. When she looked at Su Ming, her expression showed struggle and hesitation.
"This has nothing to do with you, kid, you go and get out of here..." Clown's father said immediately.
Su Ming looked at the clown, her father and mother, with a smile on his face. He took a few steps back, lifted up his clothes, and knelt down to the two old men.
"Su Ming can't repay the kindness of saving his life and staying overnight. More than a year of nurturing and the warmth of home are something I have rarely seen in my life... Dad, Mom, Chou'er's sister is still young, so I'll go."
"I have had no parents since I was a child, and only one grandpa raised me. But now... grandpa is gone, and you have made me feel warm... Chou'er, after I leave, you have to be sensible and take good care of your parents. Don't worry.
Brother will come back to see you."
"Brother Gou Sheng, I..." Joker opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say. She looked at Su Ming, tears finally forming in the corners of her eyes.
"Father, mother, the matter has been decided, I'll go!" Su Ming looked at the couple in front of him and remembered their appearance deeply in his heart. A year is not a long time, but for Su Ming
, it was a warmth he had never experienced before, different from the Ninth Peak, different from Wushan.
