Chapter 486 487
The Shenwu Continent is vast and is divided into five major states. It is the Zixuan Dynasty of Dongzhou, the Beast Clan Alliance of Nanzhou, the Spirit Clan Contract of Beizhou, the Nether Clan Dynasty of Xizhou and Zhongzhou. It is occupied by the four major tribes of human race, beast race, spirit clan and ghost race.
Zhongzhou is quite special among the five major states.
This place is located in the central area of the mainland and does not belong to either side. It has been a war place for the four major clans since ancient times. The never-ending war is almost accompanied by the rise of the four major clans. Whether it is the Millennium War or the Millennium Peace, this place is an extremely cruel ground for meat grinding.
In this Zhongzhou land, no force dares to boast of having absolute control, and the territory it occupied may be lost at any time.
Any race must be careful here to avoid being attacked by other alien races.
The Zihuang Sect has a huge power in Dongzhou, but it is nothing in Zhongzhou. No one will act according to the face of the Dongzhou Sect in this chaotic battle.
Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue did not intend to stay in Dongzhou. No matter where they are in Dongzhou, they will eventually be attacked by the Zihuang Sect.
With the current cultivation level of the Martial King in the early stage, it will be relatively long, at least for decades. If the Zihuang Sect is discovered and chased and forced to hide in the world, it will be very troublesome. Even if it is the ancient sacred mountain in the ancient land of the ancestral god, if the Zihuang Sect is determined to send three or four Martial Emperors to kill him, Gu Xinyue will be unable to resist.
After discussing, the two decided to go to the distant Zhongzhou, find a place to live in seclusion and practice, and completely get rid of the entanglement of the Zihuang Sect.
In a war-torn place like Zhongzhou, life is like grass. Countless creatures die every year. No one will pay special attention to them. The influence of Zihuang Sect is also minimal in Zhongzhou.
However, Ye Fan still had a little concern in his heart, and it was not yet settled.
"It's probably decades to go to Zhongzhou. If you encounter other accidents, it's still unknown whether you can return to Dongzhou! Xinyue, I plan to return to my hometown to pay tribute to my parents, sweep their graves, and then go to Zhongzhou!"
Ye Fandao.
"Um!"
Gu Xinyue nodded slightly.
She had this plan, but her hometown was in the Zihuang Sect, and her father was buried in the ancient land of the ancestor god. Both places are not allowed to go to now, and the people from the Zihuang Sect will be targeted. She can only accompany Ye Fan to the hometown of Luyang Mansion.
After Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue left the imperial city, they rode the golden bird and flew over millions of miles in the air to Luyang Mansion in Canglan Kingdom.
After Gu Xinyue's careful breeding of the golden bird has been carefully raised over the years, it is now in the Beast Marquis Period. It has a pair of golden eyes like bright sun and moon, and its body is made of golden feathers like gold and iron. It has a squad-long winged black sword and sword, and its steel pecks claws. It flies as fast as lightning. It is extremely fierce and unruly and difficult to tame.
Whether it is fighting or riding, this golden bird is a top-notch bird.
This is an ancient winged beast with the imperial bloodline. It was once a vassal of the Phoenix clan and followed the Winged Clan. It is not worse than the Beast King's bloodline of the wild ancient beast Mammoth. Although it is in the Beast Marquis Stage, its flight speed is slightly faster than the Martial King flying in the air, and ordinary Martial Kings cannot catch up with it.
Thanks to Gu Xinyue's bloodline of Fengzu, she has natural pressure on the winged beasts. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to tame a rebellious and fierce Golden Bird, even if she is the king of beast control.
After January, a young handsome man and woman, wearing a black hat and a raincoat, appeared in the suburbs of Luyang City.
Ye Fan came to the tombstone of the Ye couple, bowed three times, and put in incense and candles.
Gu Xinyue also bowed three times and burned a lot of paper money to show memorial service.
What surprised Ye Fan was that there were no weeds on the grave, and the surroundings were clean and tidy, so it was obvious that people often came here to clean it up.
He has no relatives in Luyang Mansion, so who would often come here to help him clean up his parents' graves?
He thought about it and planned to go into the city to take a look.
The thousand-year-old ancient city of Luyang City is covered with green vines and moss. The city is peaceful and peaceful. Some old city guards in their forties and fifties stand lazily with spears in their arms, checking passers-by and business trips entering and leaving the city.
The two of them came to the streets of Luyang City as if they had entered a no-man state.
Compared with Ye Fan's memories when he was a teenager, Luyang City seems a little more depressed. There are not many pedestrians on the road, and the city is old and quieter.
The two of them came to the old house of Ye family, an old mansion yard.
"Drink~! Hey~!"
I saw that the gate of the yard was open, and a chubby young man in his twenties was practicing "Stone Fist" in a hurry. His fist was buzzing and his head was sweating profusely.
On the table in the center is a plate of fruits and buns and pastries.
He practiced for a while and was a little hungry. He glanced at the inner room and quickly grabbed a pastry on the table and stuffed it into his mouth.
Immediately, an old gentry in the inner room, wearing a coarse cloth clothes rushed out, picked up a broom, and slapped him in the face, "Bastard, why don't you hurry up and practice your skills! You will know that you will become a pig if you eat! Think about your cousin as the top six-series at the age of fifteen, the leader of the palace examination at the age of twenty-two, and the marshal of the commander-in-chief of Canglan Kingdom at the age of twenty-five. Dad doesn't ask you to be more promising. At least you have to be admitted to our Luyang Mansion Martial Arts Academy. Don't embarrass our old Ye family!"
"Dad, who is Brother Fan? That's Wu Kuixing's reincarnation. Can I compete with Brother Fan? Besides, you go to visit my cousin's grave every day. I don't know where I've been successful, and I won't appreciate your affection."
The young man ran away with his head in his arms, hiding from all over the broom, and was so aggrieved that he wanted to cry.
The old gentry was exhausted and panting, and threw down the broom. He said with great pains, "Haozi, don't blame your father for forcing you. If your cousin is still the Grand Marshal of Canglan, we two are afraid that they are more powerful than the royal relatives. You don't have to work so hard, you can just pick the delicious food and drink spicy food. But when he left, no one in Luyang Mansion takes us seriously, and you have to rely on yourself for everything.
At your age, you have long been unable to get into the Luyang Martial Arts Academy. Your father went to find President Mu to ask for contact. Thanks to your cousin's face back then, Mr. Mu finally made a mercy and relaxed your age limit. If you don't work hard, you can't even get into the Luyang Martial Arts Academy, and you have lost all your cousin's face. Keep practicing, you can only eat after practicing boxing!"
"I have practiced "Stone Fist" well. I can break a big stone with one punch. I will definitely be admitted to Luyang Mansion this year! I can't even eat enough, so how can I practice boxing!"
Brother Hao just muttered, dancing his fists, and was very dissatisfied.
Ye Fan stood outside the yard and listened, feeling amused and crying, and couldn't help but lower his voice and said, "Uncle An Cai!"
"What are your two sirs?"
Ye Ancai looked outside the courtyard and was stunned. The two men and women in straw hats and straw raincoats had a mysterious and powerful aura on their bodies, which was like the arrival of the Holy Spirit, which made him tremble all over.
Listening to the man's voice, it seemed a bit familiar, but it was Ye Fan's voice vaguely.
But this voice is less childish and more mature and steady.
Ye Ancai was excited, but he didn't dare to confirm.
"Practicing martial arts requires a large number of high-level herbs to temper the body. Brother Hao can't practice hard, his body cannot keep up, and his qi and blood are in short supply. He also needs to buy some good herbs for him to take care of his body, and then buy a book of high-level martial arts for him to practice. Thanks to Uncle An Cai who has been to manage the cemetery over the years, there are tens of thousands of silver here, so keep it for use. Remember, don't mention to any outsider that I have been back, otherwise it will cause unexpected disasters!"
Ye Fan stepped into the hospital and did not take off his hat. He just took out some silver notes and placed them on the table.
He did not dare to keep high-level martial arts items such as Yuan stones and runes. Someone found out that he had connections with Ye Ancai, so he could only keep some secular silver notes.
Two young men and women came without a trace, disappeared outside the yard.
"Fanzi! You still understand that Uncle An Cai has suffered all these years!"
Ye Ancai held a stack of thick silver notes and looked at the two people who disappeared outside the yard. He felt like he was dreaming, sitting on the ground, crying.
The sky is full of spirit. He has been going to visit the graves every day for many years, and he has not dared to slack off for a day. He just hopes that Ye Fan will go back to his hometown one day to take a look. He remembers how good his distant cousin is finally seen today.
"Is it ~ Brother Fan?"
Brother Hao was stunned when he saw the figure disappearing outside the yard. He turned around and stared at the tens of thousands of taels of silver in his father's hand, opened his mouth wide, and swallowed his saliva.
He has never seen so many silver notes before when he grew up. He finally has a lot of silver to buy high-level herbs to temper!
Leaving the old house of Ye family, walking in the alley on the street.
Ye Fan also let go of his worries. Uncle An Cai often went to visit his parents' graves, which made him feel a little more uncomfortable.
Walking in the city, watching the familiar places, street shops, martial arts courtyards, scenes of the past appear in his mind.
Suddenly, Ye Fan stopped and looked at a figure ahead with an extremely complicated look. He didn't expect to meet him.
Gu Xinyue was a little surprised and looked at him.
I saw that at the door of a herbal medicine shop at the end of the street a hundred feet away, a young woman dressed in a cloth dress, was carrying a baby of four or five years old, busy selecting some dried herbs. The young woman should be an apprentice of a pharmacist and running a herbal medicine shop.
"Is she Cao Shanshan?"
Gu Xinyue looked at Ye Fan's complicated expression and seemed to understand it immediately.
In Luyang Mansion, Cao Shanshan is probably the only one who can make Ye Fan look so complicated. In a flash, Cao Shanshan has already married into another woman.
The young woman looked up and accidentally swept across the front, and saw two men and women in straw hats and straw raincoats on the street.
I couldn't see my appearance, but only saw the man's eyes.
Her heart trembled.
Those cold, iron-blooded eyes with a hint of tenderness and resoluteness. She will never forget that when Luyang City was broken, everyone was running away. Only he fell from the sky and rescued her from the pile of dead people. The expression of those eyes was almost the same as the man in a straw hat and straw raincoat.
The two men and women stood on the street for a while, as if they were looking at her.
But soon, the two turned and left together.
She looked around, but could no longer see the two of them, and a line of tears suddenly appeared in the corner of her eyes.
"Mom, why are you crying?"
"No, nothing, the wind blows into the sand in my mother's eyes! It will be good later. I will cook an egg flower soup for you tonight."
"Oh, that's great. I haven't eaten anything delicious since my dad went to the front to fight!"
Cao Shanshan quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and comforted the little kid with a smile.
This life.
There is nothing right or wrong!
No regrets!
However, if you are destined to meet a young man, you will be deeply in love, but if you are not destined to stay together, you will be like a passerby!
