Chapter four hundred and eighty-ninth family search
Central Plains, State of Zhao.
The evening wind blew and the night was hazy.
Outside Wushan County, in a small village, Luo Cheng yawned, got up from the bed, carefully touched the flint, lit the fire, and lit the lantern.
Then he walked out of the room in a daze holding a yellow lantern.
The wind outside blew the bone-chilling cold, which instantly wiped away all the sleepiness from his body.
Luo Cheng shook his body and stamped his feet. After feeling that he could move his body a little, he walked towards Zhuangzi's courtyard.
Follow the corridor to the courtyard. The courtyard is filled with black water tanks of the same size, large and small, and each water tank is covered with a wooden lid.
Luo Cheng stepped forward carefully, opened the lids of each water tank one by one, stirred it a few times with a wooden stick, and checked the contents inside.
These are clothes, clothes that are being dyed. The Luo Family Clothing Shop has been in the county for decades. Although the business is not big, it relies on the beautiful colors that can be dyed by hand. This can make it stand out in the fiercely competitive county.
There is barely a place in the city.
After Luo Cheng checked all the clothes in the dye vats one by one, he went to find some incense and burned it in the courtyard to prevent insects from crawling in and out.
After doing all this, the sky outside became a little hazy.
Luo Cheng yawned, changed his coat and clothes, and prepared to go to the county town to open a shop.
"Good morning, brother." From another bedroom in the courtyard, a young and cute girl with long dark red hair happened to walk out.
The girl's eyes were also sleepy, and her thin white pajamas could not hide her tender skin at all. The girl looked quite carefree, and her temperament and movements might not be out of place at all if she were placed on a strong man riding a horse, but on a delicate girl
, the adorable teenage girl looks full of heroic spirit and is full of unguarded temptation.
"Luo Ying, why don't you get some more sleep? Why did you get up so early today?" Luo Cheng stepped forward with some distress, took off his coat and put it on his sister.
Speaking of which, sister Luo Ying is not actually a biological bloodline of the Luo family.
She is an abandoned baby accidentally picked up from the snow by Luo Cheng's parents when she was young. Therefore, her hair color and eye pupils are completely different from Luo Cheng's.
Luo Cheng's eyes are pure jet black, and his hair color is also pure black. His hair is thick and not curly.
But Luo Ying's eyes are dark red, the same color as her hair. This color is natural. It is said that only foreigners from distant lands can have such blood.
And compared to Luo Cheng, whose figure is not strong, Luo Ying is only fourteen years old this year. She has developed a forward and backward curve, a thin waist and long legs, and her facial features are extremely three-dimensional, with a straight nose, big and bright eyes, and she looks at others.
He appears to be extremely serious.
"Brother, you can also sleep more. If you go to bed so late and wake up so early every day, your body will be overwhelmed after a long time." Luo Ying said worriedly.
"I'm fine, don't worry, my body knows it. It's fine." Luo Cheng smiled. "I still want to make more money. Maybe I can send you to Hanmei Academy if I have the opportunity in the future."
Luo Ying has persuaded her like this many times, but Luo Cheng doesn't listen every time.
In desperation, she could only watch Luo Cheng find another coat and put it on, carrying large and small bags, opened the door and left, heading towards the county town.
It was impossible for her to be with him. She had to stay at home to guard the dyeing vats and other things in the village.
Not long after Luo Cheng left, Luo Ying heard Zhao's mother, who had been invited to cook, get up and start lighting a fire to prepare breakfast.
She slowly returned to the bedroom alone, sat on a chair, picked up a wooden stick and poked the charcoal basin in the middle to make the red charcoal fire more intense.
"Spirit Master, have you still not made up your mind?" Suddenly a deep, hoarse male voice suddenly sounded in the room.
A blurry black figure quietly appeared in the corner of the bedroom, staring at Luo Ying motionless.
"The longer you stay here, the more likely you are to harm that boy."
"I" Luo Ying remained silent, with deep confusion and reluctance in her eyes.
"The Soul-Slayer has already set off. If he discovers that you are still here, not only will you be captured, but this young man will also be implicated." The voice continued to advise. "Think about it carefully."
Luo Ying bit her lips, her heart in a mess.
She is not from the Central Plains, but from the extremely distant mysterious country of Kong.
There are no monks in the Kingdom of Sky. They are completely different from the Immortal Sect who secretly control the political situation. The power of the country is concentrated in the hands of a kind of alien called the Red Blood Spirit Clan.
The Red Blood Eldar have their own extremely complete inheritance. They rely on shadows and blood to fight and are extremely powerful.
And she is one of the noble bloodlines of the Scarlet-blooded Spirit Clan who escaped from afar.
Originally, when she fled, her family was at a disadvantage and could be destroyed at any time. But after so many years, her family has regained its glory and stood at the top of the empire. That's why people were sent to take her back.
"Let me think about it again" Luo Ying lowered her head and fell silent.
She had actually felt her brother's ambiguous ambiguity and affection for her. The two had grown up together, bathed together, and played together, but since one day, they suddenly slept in separate beds and suddenly took baths separately.
Subtle difference.
"I understand your bond, but Luo Cheng is just a child from an ordinary family. The gap between him and you is really huge. Compared with him, you are like the brightest star in the sky. And he can only stand
Looking up on the ground." The man said helplessly.
"Brother Luo Cheng, I believe he can do it." Luo Ying closed her eyes, took a deep breath and raised her head. "I will go with you, but I want you to promise me three conditions."
"Seriously!" The man suddenly became excited. He had been spending nearly a year here in vain, but he didn't expect that he would finally make progress today.
"Really" Luo Ying nodded seriously
At noon, with the sun shining brightly, Luo Cheng returned to the village from the county town. When he went there, he just carried some things, but when he came back, he pushed a two-wheeled trolley and entered the village gate.
"Sakura, I'm back!"
As soon as he entered the door, he immediately shouted.
"Oh, you're back. Miss Ying is gone! I just left a letter for you on the table!" Zhao's mother saw him coming in and hurriedly greeted him.
"I searched everywhere, but there was no one anywhere. Miss Ying also left a letter on the table. I can't blame me for not being able to read. I was cooking before. I didn't expect to ask her to eat when it was ready.
No one was seen in the blink of an eye!" Zhao's mother was also sweating profusely, obviously she had been looking for him for a long time.
When Luo Cheng heard this, he felt a slight dizziness coming over him. He swayed and almost lost his balance.
"Where is the letter!!?" He stabilized his body and said word by word.
"In your room." Before Zhao Ma could finish her words, she saw Luo Cheng flying into the bedroom.
Sure enough, there was a letter and a small black metal box on the desk.
Luo Cheng had actually noticed it a long time ago and felt that his sister was hiding something on her mind. He actually also saw that his sister's life experience was extraordinary from the difference in appearance.
But I didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
Anger, silence, discomfort, bitterness. All kinds of emotions came to his heart. In this extremely sad state, Luo Cheng opened the letter, along with the black box.
There wasn't much in the letter, it just briefly introduced the reason for leaving. In fact, Luo Cheng knew it because someone had secretly reminded him to leave his sister on his own.
He carefully looked at the things left by his sister. Apart from the letter, they were two pamphlets written on silk.
One is called 'Theological Meditations' and the other is called 'Paine's Dark Book'.
In addition, at the bottom of the box, there is a strange elixir the size of a dragon's eye.
The letter briefly introduced these two books and the elixir.
The book was used to lay a foundation for him, and the elixir could help him reborn, refine his muscles and bones, and be able to practice the contents of these two books.
The last sentence of the letter immediately rekindled a glimmer of hope in Luo Cheng.
'If brother can cultivate these two books to the highest level, maybe one day we can say goodbye again, I love you Sakura.'
Seeing this, the tears in Luo Cheng's eyes finally couldn't hold back anymore and fell from the corners of his eyes like broken threads.
Boom, boom, boom.
Before he could cry out, someone suddenly knocked on the courtyard door.
"Is anyone there?"
Luo Cheng shuddered, came to his senses, quickly put away his things, and walked out of the yard quickly. Zhao Ma had already run away quietly. Perhaps he was afraid that Luo Cheng would hold her responsible.
There was no one in the yard.
Boom, boom, boom.
The knock on the door was very heavy and loud.
Luo Cheng wiped away his tears with a helpless smile on his face. In fact, he had been mentally prepared for this. But when it actually happened, he still didn't expect it to be so uncomfortable.
He took a few steps forward, pulled out the latch, and opened the door.
"Who are you looking for?" Luocheng was slightly startled as soon as he opened the door.
There were two people standing in front of him, one was a gorgeous and beautiful girl with long black hair. The other was a handsome and tall young man.
But these are not the key. The key is that this man looks so much like his father.
"Excuse me, is this Luojiazhuang? Is Luo Xing here? Xu Yejun of the Luo family can also do it." The man looked at Luo Cheng in front of him with a gentle tone.
Luo Cheng was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses.
"Luo Xing is my father, and Xu Yejun is my mother. They have been dead for almost six years and you are..." He had never seen the man in front of him. But judging from the familiar face of the other person who looked very much like his father, the other person was very
Maybe it has something to do with him.
"Dead??" The man was stunned when he heard this. How could he settle the cause and effect for others after he died?
"Yes, it's been six years since he died. He had lung disease and couldn't survive the winter." Luo Cheng forced a smile, "Who are you?"
The man looked at Luo Cheng carefully, then suddenly stretched out his hand and pinched his cheek gently. His eyes suddenly softened.
"Like your grandpa"
"You!?" Luo Cheng was startled, and then quickly backed away.
But immediately, he was grabbed by the arm by the woman beside the man.
"Give him a blood test." The man let go of his hand and said calmly.
"Understood." The beautiful woman nodded, then smiled at Luo Cheng.
Chi!
Luo Cheng felt his eyes flash as a red line flew out from his wrist, and then was gently held in the woman's hand.
The woman closed her eyes and felt it for a moment, then opened her eyes and nodded towards the man.
"It's him."
Before Luo Cheng could figure out what was going on, he suddenly felt himself being picked up by a man.
"You are the only one left in the Luo family?" the man asked.
Luo Cheng nodded blankly.
"In this case, from today on, you are the only successor to me, Mu Yun!
The only young sect leader of the Sihai Sect today! Under the four seas, all the monsters came to court, pardoning orders and decrees! No one is immune!" The man took out a jade crown from his arms and put it on Luo Cheng.
"Let's go! Follow me back to Beihai to take over the throne." He mentioned Luocheng and was about to run away.
