On June 28, two days had passed since the battle at Black Wind Village. To the people of the Qingyun Sect, there was still no news about Shen Lang.
In fact, this is a relatively gentle way of saying it.
Anyone who had experienced that battle knew that Shen Lang was dead. Because they all witnessed with their own eyes the terrifying moment when the real fire suddenly bloomed and then died down, and then half of the mountain was turned into powder.
Under such a palm, not to mention a Qi Refining Realm monk like Shen Lang, even if two or three Golden Core Realm monks worked together to resist, there was absolutely no reason to survive.
This is an indisputable fact.
The peaks of Qingyun were as calm or lively as usual. Chixiao Peak held a banquet yesterday. Yu Wushuang became the well-deserved protagonist of the banquet. They all said that he annihilated the Demon Sect and had supreme credit...
However, when people talked about what happened that night again at the banquet, they all avoided one name intentionally or unintentionally.
Shen Lang...
It's as if he never existed.
Even those who saved their lives due to Shen Lang's sacrifice remained silent at this time. Perhaps they felt moved and admired the hero for a moment when they were saved.
But who would offend Yu Wushuang and destroy their own future just for that mere touch? The dead are already dead, but the living still have to think about their future lives. If the dead cannot speak, naturally no one will help the dead.
say.
So the truth in Black Wind Stronghold was forever covered up in that passing night.
People also naturally shift their thoughts to their future life and make plans for their future life.
For example, at this moment, they were thinking, today is the first day of the Qingyun Trial Qualifiers, will there be some amazing and talented disciples in the preliminaries?
If a disciple with amazing talents really appears, should we establish a friendly relationship with him in advance while he is still weak, so that he might be able to get along better in the sect in the future?
Many disciples are concerned about the qualifiers, but the people who should care about this matter the most no longer care about it.
The Xia family compound was missing a lively figure, and it seemed very deserted and dead. The bright red begonia flowers in Haitang Garden were cut off by swords, and the fat green leaves and fallen reds were scattered all over the ground. Miss Xia Er did not say a word.
, but for two days in a row, he practiced swordplay with an effort that he had never seen in more than ten years.
Elsewhere, the peach blossoms in Taohuawu have long been deserted. There is a woman who is writing and writing with her eyebrows slightly frowned. There is an extremely rare sadness on her elegant and elegant face. Then she stops writing and throws away the book that she almost never leaves her hand.
The ancient Qingshu scrolls actually felt a bit boring.
What is boring?
I don’t want to practice elixirs, cultivate talismans, write words, draw pictures, or read ancient scrolls. There are obviously many meaningful things to do, but I feel upset, as if I have suddenly lost interest in everything in the world, so
Don't want to do anything.
This is boring.
Xia Qianye likes to be quiet and elegant. Even if she never leaves the door or takes a step forward, she has never felt bored before. But these two days, he has definitely felt very bored... She thought, maybe it's because the peach blossom has fallen.
, the bees and butterflies are not attracted, does it seem too deserted? Or is it because someone is missing from the small alchemy room, or a naughty little bastard who is missing from the Xia family compound?
"Alas..." The head of the Xia family walked past Haitang Garden and crossed Taohuawu. He, who always liked liveliness, seemed a little unable to bear the desertion at this time, so he had no choice but to walk outside the gate of the Xia family.
Sighing as they walked forward, the head of the Xia family thought to himself that he was the one who personally brought Mr. Shen in to this door of the Xia family, but now...
Just as he was thinking this, the lost head of the Xia family suddenly bumped into a figure.
"Oh! Who is this without eyes? How dare you bump into me!" His thoughts were interrupted, and the head of the Xia family was quite angry, thinking to himself, what kind of servant is this without eyes?
Unexpectedly, the person who hit the head of the Xia family seemed to be a tough opponent. While being hit, he cursed without raising his head: "Who do you think is short-sighted?"
Then, the two of them looked up at each other at the same time, looking slightly stunned, and then both smiled bitterly.
It turned out that the head of the Xia family, who was out of his mind and walked without looking at the road, bumped into the sword shopkeeper who was also lost in his soul and walked without looking at the road...
"Where are you going?" Shopkeeper Jian asked.
"Wander around as you like." Head Xia said, "What are you going to do?"
"You can just wander around casually," said the sword shopkeeper.
"Come to my place, don't you want to drink?" the head of the Xia family asked again.
"I don't want to drink it." Shopkeeper Jian shook his head.
The head of the Xia family was a little surprised, and then he discovered that in the past, Shopkeeper Jian, who would feel uncomfortable as long as he didn't drink for three hours, didn't smell of alcohol at all today. Moreover, the wine gourd that he never left his body had actually been forgotten today. bring.
The head of the Xia family seemed to understand something, nodded and said: "It's okay if you don't want to drink, I don't want to drink either. Just wander around casually."
Young people don’t know what it’s like to be sad. In the past, wine could relieve their worries, and they always liked to use wine to drown their sorrows. But old people who have been drinking for decades can understand the true meaning of wine...
With wine, the more you drink, the more sober you become.
If you are happy, getting drunk will naturally add to the fun.
If you are sad, after you are drunk, you have to face the cruel facts that you could not think about or face for the time being...
If you are not drunk, you can at least maintain your sanity and try to stay calm.
"Little girl Xia has changed her temper these past few days. She has changed from her previous unruly and willful nature. She has been practicing hard. She has really changed a lot, and it also makes her worry a lot." The head of the Xia family said suddenly.
"I heard from Master Qingye that that boy Chen Pipi has also changed his gender. He has been working hard to practice in the past two days and has been forgetting to eat and sleep. I don't know if the fat on his body will be lost," said the sword shopkeeper. .
"This is a good thing, we should be happy." Family leader Xia said happily, but there was no smile on his face.
"It's a good thing, but these noisy little guys suddenly become serious, which is really uncomfortable." Shopkeeper Jian said: "I always feel that they have done a lot to conceal the affairs of Heifeng Village..."
"Perhaps they wanted to personally avenge that kid and didn't want us old guys to get involved, so they deliberately concealed something?" said the head of the Xia family.
"Boy Shen..." The two of them were actually deliberately avoiding talking about that boy, but unknowingly, they still talked about him.
"I don't know if when he left Qingyun, if I gave him the Dao Body Puppet, the situation would have been better." Shopkeeper Jian thought about the day when Shen Lang said goodbye to him and asked him for the puppet. .
"Well, if that kid is not dead and can stand in front of me again, I will give him the Taoist puppet."
"Oh, a puppet is nothing." The head of the Xia family said disdainfully: "If that kid really comes back, I will marry both of my daughters to him."
Hearing these words, in the past, Shopkeeper Jian would have definitely teased Family Master Xia, but at this time, the two could only look at each other and smile bitterly.
Because they all know that Shen Lang can't come back...
But at this moment, a loud shout suddenly came over.
