always a fairy

Chapter 16 He killed your mother, why don't you kill his mother too.

The room is not big, but enough for three people to live.

There was a table in the courtyard, and Bai Yujing and the one-armed old man were sitting beside the table.

The steaming hot noodles with meat sauce were placed on the table, and the girl clumsily filled it up for Bai Yujing before returning to the room.

There was another woman in the courtyard, her mother, his wife.

The woman had no hair, no ears, her entire face was burnt, and she couldn't see any facial features at all. She hunched over by the stove and ate noodles. Bai Yujing didn't see her mouth until she opened her mouth. Where.

He couldn't believe that such a person was still alive and well.

"It's okay, we can say anything, she can't hear." The one-armed old man raised his face and put it in his mouth. With a satisfied face, he turned to look at his wife. The warmest smile.

The night was darker.

Bai Yujing didn't move his chopsticks, but moved his hand away from the sword that he had been stroking.

"This is a village." Bai Yujing asked.

"good."

The one-armed old man's eyes were full of joy, "This village was built 30 years ago, and there are now 730 people here, and a new one was added yesterday, a big fat boy from the Wang family."

Bai Yujing didn't dare to look at the woman, took a sneak peek, lowered his head, and said slowly: "Why did she become like this?"

"One night 12 years ago, the demons from the Hanging Mountain broke into this place and turned it into a purgatory on earth. They escaped by chance, but my son and more than 300 people died in that catastrophe."

The voice of the one-armed old man was very flat, but the hand holding the chopsticks was trembling, "It's the seventh-rank monster who came. The disciples of Xuankong Mountain were powerless to resist, and nearly half of them were killed or injured. In the end, the master paid the price of the shattered Dao Yuan to kill him." That demon's veins are sealed, so we can survive."

He didn't know whether to believe it, but he couldn't doubt it, because the old eyes in front of him were full of sincerity.

The one-armed old man suddenly raised his head and asked, "Now do you still think what I did to those monsters was too much?"

"Without the suffering of others, there is no judgment of right and wrong." Bai Yujing said, "But you killed my mother."

The one-armed old man nodded, "So you want to kill me for revenge."

Bai Yujing said: "Yes."

The one-armed old man said: "But not now."

Bai Yujing asked, "Why?"

The one-armed old man shook his head helplessly, "Because if you kill me now, the brother in charge will not be able to return to the body."

Bai Yujing got angry and shouted: "He is my biggest enemy! He killed my mother with his own hands!"

The one-armed old man hummed, picked up the noodle bowl, and didn't say another word.

The door creaked open.

Ya'er came out, she tapped a wooden stick on the ground in front of her, and asked tentatively, "Big brother, are you there?"

Bai Yujing was at a loss for a moment, and only then did he realize that his voice might have been heard by this girl, and when he was about to say something, the one-armed old man beside him said: "Girl, go back!"

Ya'er is an obedient girl. My father said so, and he couldn't go against his will, but when he returned to the house, he whispered: "Big brother, my father is a man who keeps his word, please trust him."

Bai Yujing felt stuck in her throat, not knowing how to reply, she just watched her walk into the house.

The one-armed old man had been observing Bai Yujing's every move for a long time, and now since his daughter appeared, he found that the boy still had a conscience in his heart, and it wasn't because he was blinded by hatred, the desperate master, and immediately had Method.

He sighed, stood up and said: "Since you insist on this, I don't ask you for anything else, I will take you to see the elder brother in charge right now."

After finishing speaking, he stood up, moved his body, and subconsciously grasped his long sword tightly. Suddenly, a slight wave emanated from his body.

Bai Yujing also stood up. He didn't know how long it would take for the cultivator to recover his breath. He said so, and saw that this strange movement was still emitting breath. Immediately, his heart tightened, and he subconsciously pulled out his long sword, horizontally on his neck.

The two were in front of each other, Bai Yujing couldn't see the smile on the face of the one-armed old man, but he could hear him sigh, "I will lead the way for you."

Bai Yujing's sword edge did not dare to leave the neck of the one-armed old man, and immediately walked out at the same pace as him. Just as he walked out of the courtyard gate, he saw many people outside holding torches, standing not far away, lined up One row, men, women, old and young, most of them were burned or hacked to cause irreparable disabilities.

Suddenly, I don't know who came out first, and shouted: "Brother Yujing!"

Bai Yujing turned around suddenly, and saw a nine-year-old boy, he was surprised: "Shui baby? Why are you here?"

Shui Wa had already run over, crying excitedly, "Brother Yu Jing, I... I thought you were dead..."

Bai Yujing was holding a long sword, and with the other hand he put his arms around the children in his own village. He was both happy and surprised, and his eyes were full of puzzlement, and he said: "Shui baby, didn't you go to the capital to see a doctor with your father and mother three years ago?" Is it? Why...here?"

Shuiwa raised her head, and when she heard this, she immediately wronged herself, wiped her eyes with her hand and said, "Brother Yujing, my father died of illness the day he left the house. It was my mother who brought me to Xuankong Mountain. I was so distressed, so I took us in and lived in this village, and continued to treat my mother's illness, and now my mother is much better, the head master said that if we take it for another half a year, we will be cured."

He turned his head and saw the one-armed old man, and said suspiciously: "Third elders, you are..."

The one-armed old man smiled and said: "Shuiwa, this is the method we cultivated in Xuankong Mountain. It takes this kind of practice to pass on swordsmanship back and forth. You are young now, and when you have time in the future, the third elder will teach you personally. ah."

"it is good!"

Shui Wa looked at Bai Yujing with a smile, "Brother Yujing, did you come here to survive because you were bullied?"

Bai Yujing's face was sullen, and he asked without answering: "The people here are all being bullied, so they come here to survive?"

Shuiwa showed endless innocence on her face, nodded and said: "Yes, everyone is, my neighbor Uncle Wang just gave birth to a big fat boy, I think he came here half a year later than me, I heard that he was arrested in the city insulted, and was chased and killed by monsters outside the city, and then fled to Hanging Mountain."

As soon as the words fell, the common people rushed up at the same time and surrounded Bai Yujing, shouting incessantly: "I was bullied too." "Our whole family escaped here." "Do you want to go?" Take a look at my house, we are very poor." "This is our only home."

Bai Yujing had put the sword by his side, looked around, but the one-armed old man had disappeared.

He was helplessly pushed back by the villagers. Bai Yujing knew that he was here for revenge, not to kill innocent people indiscriminately. It is simply impossible to do it.

Counted.

He looked at the hanging mountain in the distance, and thought: "It doesn't matter if you can't escape for the time being. With so many people, what if someone has malicious intentions and wants to strangle me here? After the elder escapes, whoever finds me A few Xuankong Mountain disciples come here, and I will die here."

Thinking of this moment, Bai Yujing immediately said: "I promise you, I will go again at dawn, don't go any further, otherwise the sword has no eyes, and it will be bad if you hurt everyone."

Seeing him like this, all the villagers stopped going up to persecute him and retreated separately, but they were worried that Bai Yujing would break his promise, so they immediately surrounded him, leaving him a gap of four or five steps.

At this moment, the crowd in front of Bai Yujing was pushed aside, and a woman walked out of it.

The woman was obviously aged, she was leaning on a cane, her hair was full of silver hair, she walked out slowly with the support of a little girl, she looked at Bai Yujing and said, "You're hungry."

Bai Yujing put away his sword, but did not answer.

"Go, come home with me." The woman smiled slightly, and seemed worried that Bai Yujing would not come, so she added: "Yuxuzi is my son."

There are still people in the village who want to speak, but they are hoarse and can't say a word for a long time.

Bai Yujing followed her until she reached a courtyard.

The courtyard here is not too different from other villagers' homes, and it is not much different from Jiuhua Village's own home. The master of this sect may not be greedy for money and lust, which surprised Bai Yujing.

The woman prepared a lot of food, including noodles, wine and soup.

But Bai Yujing couldn't take a bite, and it was dawn in less than an hour, and Bai Yujing might have encountered the biggest disaster in his life at this time.

He would be prepared for everything he did, but this time was the only action he did not have any preparations for, and it was also the only action he did not allow himself to fail.

The sky was gray, and at some point, snowflakes drifted down and swayed in the air.

He recalled the night when his mother died, it was also so snowy and cold.

"Tired?" the woman asked.

There was only him and the woman in the courtyard, and the woman spoke to him.

"Not tired." Although Bai Yujing raised his head, for some reason, he was afraid of meeting the woman's eyes.

The woman slowly sat across from him and asked in a low voice, "Did it snow that night?"

This moment brought Bai Yujing back to the night full of pain, he suddenly raised his head to look at the woman, clenched his fists and said, "What do you want to say?"

"Revenge." The woman said.

"What can you say?" Bai Yujing was angry.

"Who did he kill?" asked the woman.

Bai Yujing stared at her blankly, "He killed my mother!"

The woman said: "It's only natural to kill someone to pay for his life. If he killed your mother, why don't you kill his mother too."

For some reason, when the snow fell on the ground, there was a sound of smashing a belief.
