Volume 1 Rhine Chapter 19 The Number of Lost Copies

Su Xuan stared at the figure of the white-robed man, daring to be angry, but not daring to speak.

At this time, he seemed to understand a little why the patriarch would tell him that in front of such a person, he should not say anything, and it was better to be a dumb person.

The white-robed man waved his sleeves, and he was about to leave.

Su Xuan, who was about to open his mouth to scold, suddenly heard a fluttering voice from around the forest, "Who is so arrogant that he dares to hurt my people." ”

The white-robed man's footsteps stagnated slightly, turned around suddenly, and threw a punch, just in time to catch the rapid punches and kicks of the incoming person.

He was stepped on, and his body was heavy, and he took dozens of steps backwards before he could barely stand firm.

He patted the footprints on his clothes, a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and pointed to the bleeding young man on the ground and asked, "You want to avenge him?" ”

The rough-looking middle-aged man was even more angry when he reached the boy lying on the ground.

The middle-aged man pulled out the big ring knife from the black sheath and slashed it with his arm; The middle-aged man smiled even more, and he was not afraid to meet him.

The fists and knives were imprinted, and the round of large-ring scimitars was bounced away by force, buzzing.

The two of them fought with a knife and a punch, and they were on par.

Su Xuan was anxious, this head of the Dragon Sect was not simple, and even the patriarch had suffered a secret loss under his fist.

Someone tapped him lightly on the shoulder, and an old voice said, "Come, this guest friend, help me with the handle." ”

The elder in the ancestral house came behind him, carrying a hard wooden plank on his back, like a stretcher.

Su Xuan immediately understood what he meant, and immediately stepped forward to help.

The elder crouched down beside the young man, glanced at him, and said, "Not dead, but almost useless." ”

Su Xuan looked at the young man's originally handsome and extraordinary face, at this moment, Qiqiao was bleeding, his chin was blurred and broken, and he was miserable, and he felt guilty. He was completely unaware of his breath, but fortunately, the elder heard the young man's faint heartbeat, and used the precious elixir in the clan, whether the young man could swallow it or not, and forced it into his mouth, barely holding him a breath.

"People who practice martial arts, it's normal to stumble, it's just a little pain in the flesh, and you shouldn't be upset."

The elder said lightly, it seemed that the dying young man had not fallen asleep, and he was still talking to the young man.

Carefully moving the young man's body to the door panel, the two of them carried the young man back to the ancestral house one after the other.

"Go, go to the well in the atrium and get some water."

Whenever the elder has an order, Su Xuan doesn't say a word, pulls his legs and leaves.

When I went to the well in the compound, I changed basins of clean water, poured basins of blood and water, and walked as fast as I could, without delaying a moment. Or, in fact, he was full of anger in his heart, and he vented it at his feet.

I thought that in this backward tribe, most of the people who were injured so badly would be gone, but in the evening, when the elders went to the stove to cook medicine, Su Xuan sat at the head of the bed and saw the young man whose neck and head were fixed and bolted, his chest rose and fell slightly, and he breathed evenly, and he actually fell asleep.

He was glad and relieved.

This should be regarded as picking up a life from the ghost gate.

Su Xuan let out a long breath, for the first time in his life, he had the urge to kill people in his heart.

Even in the years when he was a lonely ghost in the garbage dump, and later, after he learned something, he never resented the two people who abandoned him.

Some people like to take risks and like to experience some things to make themselves less ordinary, but Su Xuan, what he pursues is just to live an ordinary life, and to live a long time in the interpersonal relationships.

Don't seek to be rich and rich, just ask for trouble and don't find yourself.

And then there's longevity.

In fact, it doesn't matter if he lives long or not, he is mainly afraid of pain.

So, when Irene, a girl who claimed to be from the Darkborn, said that if she didn't go with them, she would die a miserable death, he immediately raised the white flag.

This thinking turned out to be wrong.

Although ants are not cared about, if they are encountered by chance, it doesn't matter if they step on them.

Whether you are there or not, in fact, it is just a matter that can be solved by one foot......

The sky was slightly bright, and Su Xuan, lying on the bed, smelled a strong medicinal fragrance wafting in from outside the house. He sat up sharply, put on his clothes, and ran out the door.

There was a fire on the other side of the courtyard, and the crisp sound of chopping wood could be heard, and when Su Xuan raised his head slightly, he saw that outside the eaves, there was starlight in the sky.

This view, whether it is the end city or the desert town of Xizen, cannot be seen.

The elder stands under a jujube tree chopping wood, and behind him is a fire-gathering stove made of loess clay. The fire is blazing.

Su Xuan walked up to the elder and proposed to let him do this kind of hard work.

The elder did not refuse, and seeing that his face was full of guilt, he handed him an axe.

Su Xuan suddenly remembered something and asked, "Senior, did another senior come back yesterday?" ”

He has some words that he hides in his heart, and he stops talking about them.

"That kid can't beat that man." The elder said, "Because that person, in your words, is not a human being." No mortal can be defeated. ”

The elder sighed, "I can only ask for more blessings." ”

Su Xuan asked, "One person can't beat him, what about two people?" ”

The elder said, "It has always been the case that a man of one sect is in charge of the affairs of the other. There are only three of us in this door, the one you saw yesterday, and the one lying on the bed. If the power of the other gates is also destroyed, this ancestral house will be in danger. ”

What else did Su Xuan want to say.

But the elder said, "This is our duty as guards. It's not about guarding someone or something. As for the rest of the matters, we have to wait for the patriarch to arrange and deal with them, and we have no right to intervene. ”

"Unless, that person dares to set foot in the ancestral house, then we can join forces to kill him."

Su Xuan didn't say anything, these rules, logically speaking, they understood better, since the middle-aged man who saved them yesterday did not come back, it means that he has reservations.

Chopping wood for the fire, the boy had to change the medicine three times a day.

Gradually, switch to twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.

After a few days, the boy began to be able to speak, but he was babbling and could not hear clearly. Su Xuan saw him lying on the bed with a smile on his face, and knew that he said: It's okay, don't worry, when you remove the splint, I can still jump around and go down to the river to fish for you.

In their free time, the elders practice boxing in that spacious courtyard.

The punch he practiced, Su Xuan sat in front of the medicine stove, squinting at the elder while taking care of the fire, and it didn't take long for him to feel a little drowsy.

In a few days, he also saw some doorways, this slow, soft boxing method, all moves and paths are centered on drawing circles, although there is no attack or killing, but it has its own momentum of the unity of heaven and man. The viewer is pleasing to the eye, and the practitioner cultivates self-cultivation.

However, Su Xuan still preferred their previous morning exercises, dancing wildly and refreshing...... If you have nothing to do, practice it will be very beneficial!

This morning, Su Xuan still woke up early, he came to the courtyard, and found the elder guarding the fire with a sad face.

Su Xuan asked, "What happened?" ”

The old man showed a blank look on his face, "I'm old, I don't have a good memory, I obviously remember that there are still two years of this bone washing fruit, but when I look for it today, there are only these left." ”

He pointed to the medicine box drawer placed on the table next to him, and Su Xuan saw that there were only scraped brown medicinal herb crumbs in the medicine box, which added up to less than a small hand.

Su Xuan remembered the appearance of this flavored medicine, every time she boiled the medicine, she had to add a small teaspoon, although she didn't add much, but she heard the elders say that this flavored medicine was the key to the flesh and bones of the living and dead.

Su Xuan asked, "Where can I get this medicinal herb?" ”

"The bone washing fruit only grows in the cemetery, and it is as strong as poison, and ordinary pharmacies can't see it, so you can only trouble you to go to the patriarch's mansion and tell him about it."

Su Xuan, who was instructed, quickly went out.

Looking for the address written for him by the elder of the ancestral house, Su Xuan found the address of the house surrounded by earthen walls and fences.

In the courtyard, seven or eight teenagers and girls lined up in two rows, facing each other in pairs, as if they were practicing boxing and fighting.

Su Xuan looked into the depths of the courtyard and saw an old man with a yellow face and thin muscles sitting on a stool, picking his toes with his hand, pouring water and drinking tea with that hand, and grabbing the melons and fruit kernels in the dish to eat.

The eyes of the two suddenly met, and the old man walked over and said directly, "What are you doing here?" ”

It seems that this old man already knows his identity as well. Su Xuan introduced himself again, and was about to open his mouth to explain his intentions, but when he saw the old man's obscene and sinister villain's pointed mouth, he closed his mouth.

"I'm looking for the patriarch, is the patriarch there?"

Some things, he still personally told the patriarch to confirm.

The lewd old man said, "The patriarch is not here, just tell me something, and when he comes back, I will naturally tell him." ”

Su Xuan thanked him: "Since the patriarch is not here, then I will come back next time." ”

He left in a hurry, for fear that if he stayed for a long time, this ill-intentioned old man would have some bad intentions.

The old man stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the back of the young man who disappeared in a hurry, and suddenly felt a little annoyed in his heart.

Back at the ancestral house, Su Xuan told the elder about it.

The elder said flatly, "You're talking about Xiaoba, he was born like this." The root bones of the martial arts are excellent, but the skin is a little worse, don't be afraid of him. ”

Su Xuan was still not at ease.

"It may be because a large number of outsiders have come into my clan these days, and the patriarch should be dealing with these things. It's okay, it's okay for you to tell the patriarch directly next time. These bone washing fruits can probably be used for five or six days. If that kid had recovered faster, that would have been enough. ”

"Are these people here because of me, or because they covet some treasures within the clan?"

The elder said, "Most of those people are coming for us, and it's not a matter of a day or two that they want that thing. But most of them were guys who came to die. ”

Su Xuan said: "Senior, there are some things that should be told to you, the outside world is no longer what it used to be, and they are no longer afraid of your bow and arrow." ”

He said it rather cryptically, meaning only that times had changed.

"Anything, at the price, is deserved."

The elder just smiled, feeling that he didn't take Su Xuan's words seriously.

The elder knew that the child's heart was not bad and he was a foresight, so he quietly told him a heavenly opportunity, "You must know that the iceberg in the Heavenly Lake came with my clan at the earliest. ”
