A black shadow flashed, Dumb landed beside Xiao Huan, his hands holding the girl's portrait carefully and handed it to Xiao Huan, said in a daze, "Look, is the girl alive again, it must be, she will never die."
Xiao Huan was stunned, looked at the grey ashes in Dumb's hands, that lifelike face, it was the girl! Xiao Huan only now understood what Ah Ge wanted to do, cried out sorrowfully, "Miss + — —" Her tears once again flowed uncontrollably. She and Dumb just stood there quietly, four eyes firmly staring at that lifelike portrait, the sorrowful atmosphere continued to rise around them, the forest seemed to feel the pain in their hearts, trembling under the breeze.
After a long time, Dumb heaved a long sigh, kept the girl's portrait carefully, said indifferently, "Don't cry Xiao Huan, let's go."
Xiao Huan choked with sobs, nodded her head, murmured, "Dumb, Dumb brother, where are we going now?"
Dumb said, "I will bring you to a peaceful place, there, you should be able to live a peaceful life, that should also be what the girl wishes for." After speaking, he picked up Xiao Huan's petite body, flew up, identified the direction and flew towards the southwest. His destination, was the peaceful little village where Harry lived. Mother Mica province was not far from Western swordmaster Harry's Hake village, after a day of flying, Dumb brought Xiao Huan across the boundary between Tenjin Empire and Suoyu Federation, and spent another day to cross Tian Gang Mountain, arriving at Hwasin Empire's Guangming province.
Two days passed, the sorrow in Xiao Huan's heart had lessened by a lot. She also gradually got used to the feeling of being carried by Dumb. Every time she thought of the girl, she would ask Dumb for the girl's portrait to look at, recalling the scenes when she was with the girl.
Under the protection of Ah Ge's vigorous fighting energy, the oncoming cold wind could no longer invade Xiao Huan's body. Looking at the scenery flashing past her feet in a daze, Xiao Huan muttered, "Dumb brother, why can you fly?"
Dumb glanced at Xiao Huan, after two days of hurrying, the blocked meridians in his body had been cleared a little, temporarily it would not affect his speed. At this moment, he indeed did not have the mood to completely adjust his breathing. Hearing Xiao Huan's question, he indifferently replied, "This is a form of martial technique."
Xiao Huan could be said to know nothing about martial techniques. She changed the topic and said, "Where are you taking me? Will I follow you from now on? "
Dumb shook his head and said, "I'm an inauspicious person. I'm afraid you'll be in danger if you follow me. I'll arrange a peaceful place for you. You won't get hurt there, and I'll be able to answer to that girl. "
Xiao Huan looked at Dumby's very ordinary appearance, said in a low voice, "If only Miss was still here. Xiao Huan is willing to serve you for a lifetime. " After two days of interaction, Xiao Huan discovered that although this Dumb brother's face was cold, he was a very emotional person. Moreover, his feelings for Tifuya were very deep. Tifuya's death was a great blow to him.
Dumb's body trembled slightly, and he said in a low voice, "As long as the girl is here, she'll always be here. In my heart, she's still that kind and weak girl. I'll always keep her by my side. "
The light-dark river was already in sight, but Huck Village was still as peaceful as ever. The farmers were constantly busy. Dumb brought Xiao Huan to a small slope not far from Huck Village and lightly said, "Xiao Huan, are you willing to live a peaceful life in that small village? There, no one will bully you, no one will look down on you. There are only simple and honest villagers. "
Xiao Huan looked at the small village surrounded by fields, a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes, she nodded and said, "I'm willing. When Miss was alive, she said that if there was a peaceful place for her to live a stable life, she would be satisfied. Xiao Huan also has the same thoughts, a peaceful life is what I want the most. But, will the people here accept me? " Dumb looked at Xiao Huan, sighed and said, "The girl has the same thoughts as me, if she's still alive, we can live a peaceful life here. Let's go, there's a senior I know there, he will take care of you. "
Dumby brought Xiao Huan to Huck Village slowly. When he reached the entrance of the village, he saw Harry's eldest son. He was helping a few villagers carry things. Under the sunlight, his simple face was covered with sweat, but Dumb could see that, although he was physically tired, but mentally he was very happy.
"Hassan." Dumb calmly called Harry's eldest son's name.
Hearing Dumb's call, although Hassan was taken aback, he looked up at Dumb's direction, stunned for a moment, he immediately recognized Dumb's identity, pleasantly surprised and said, "Ah! You, aren't you Dumb? Coming to see us? That's great, if dad knows you're here, he will definitely be very happy. "
Dumb looked at Hassan's simple and honest smile, his heart warmed, he waved to Xiao Huan and said, "Come, Xiao Huan, let me introduce you."
Xiao Huan shyly walked to Dumb, lowered her head, not daring to look at Hassan's burning eyes. Although Xiao Huan was not considered very beautiful but she was delicate. Hassan, who had not seen much of the world, suddenly felt embarrassed, muttered to Dumb, "Dumb brother, this doesn't seem to be that cold girl from last time."
Dumb nodded and said, "She is Xiao Huan, the sister of a friend of mine. Her fate is very miserable, I want to ask your father to take care of her. "
Hassan scratched his head and said, "Take care of her? It should be possible, dad and mom are very hospitable. Let's go, I'll take you to see dad, I don't know why he likes to sleep recently, he locks himself in the house all day long, mom often scolds him for being lazy. But dad has worked hard all his life, now he's not young anymore, it's time to rest. Us brothers are enough for the farm work. "
Dumby's heart stirred. He understood that Harry must be preparing for the competition of the four Sword Saints in three months. A faint smile appeared on Dumby's face as he said, "Hassan, you really are a filial son!"
Hassan brought Dumb and Xiao Huan to his house, as soon as he entered, he shouted, "Dad, Dumb is here, brother Dumb is here!"
Dumb was shocked, hurriedly pulled Hassan and said, "Don't shout, don't disturb Uncle Harry's rest." A warrior's meditation required quiet, or else it would be easy to go berserk. He was afraid that Hassan would disturb Harry's practice.
"It's okay." Harry's voice came from the room, with a smile on his face, he walked out from the room.
Seeing Harry again, Dumb felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, he stepped forward and said respectfully, "Uncle Harry."
Harry looked at Dumb from head to toe, his eyes revealed a trace of worry. He said, "Dumb, why do you have time to come here? Come, let's talk inside. Hassan, go and work, tonight go to your Uncle Reed's house to borrow some wine, I will treat your brother Dumb. " “
"Oh, got it." Hassan replied, glanced at Xiao Huan again, then turned and left.
Dumb and Xiao Huan came to Harry's room, Dumb said, "Uncle Harry, I came back to ask you for a favor. This girl is the sister of my friend, my friend met with misfortune, I want her to live a peaceful life here. She is just an ordinary girl, she won't bring you any trouble. "
Harry looked at Xiao Huan from head to toe, smiled and said, "I have room here, then let her stay."
Xiao Huan bowed to Harry, obediently said, "Thank you, Uncle, Xiao Huan can do any housework, you can also teach me how to do farm work, I won't stay here for nothing."
Harry laughed and said, "Mmm, what an obedient girl! Seems like Dumb really isn't looking for trouble. Let's go, I will find a room for you. " After saying that, he and Dumb brought Xiao Huan to the room where Phoenix Slayer stayed last time. "My place is a little simple, I will make do with it. If you need anything, just let me know. My wife will only be back at night, she has always wanted to have a daughter, this time her wish has been fulfilled. She will definitely like you a lot, you can rest assured and stay here with me. "
Xiao Huan felt the warmth of home from Harry, her eyes reddened, she choked and said, "Thank you, Uncle, Xiao Huan will definitely be obedient."
Harry nodded and said, "You and Dumb must be tired from the journey, rest first. Dumb, come with me, I have something to say to you."
Dumb was startled, then nodded and said to Xiao Huan, "Alright, you rest first." After saying that, he returned to his room with Harry.
After closing the door, Harry's face revealed a serious expression, he suddenly sent a palm towards Dumb's chest. Dumb was startled, but he didn't dodge, because he knew that Dumb wouldn't harm him.
Harry's withered palm emitted a green radiance as it pressed against Dumb's chest. Dumb could clearly feel a warm energy flowing into his chest, quickly circulating through his meridians before returning to Harry's body. Harry frowned and said in a somewhat reproachful tone, "What happened to you, why are your meridians in such a mess? Did you meet an expert? There aren't many experts that can injure you! "
Dumb bitterly smiled and shook his head, saying, "Uncle, I'm fine, the injuries in my body can be considered my own doing. I haven't been in a good mood recently, Xiao Huan's grandmother was very important to me, but she died. Sigh … Why are all my friends passing away one by one? Could it be that I am really an unlucky person? "
Harry looked at Dumb and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. You have to quickly straighten out the qi in your meridians, if not you will be in danger of going berserk. Come. "After speaking, he pulled Ah Ge and floated onto the bed. Right now, Dumb actually had no intention of training, but he couldn't go against Harry's good intentions, so he could only sit cross-legged opposite him.
Harry stretched out both of his palms and said, "Meet my palms, I'll help you." Feeling Harry's concern for him, Dumb's heart warmed up, he raised his palms and met Harry's palms. Harry said in a deep voice, "Return to one, concentrate on your Dan Tian, get rid of all distracting thoughts." Two warm and surging streams of qi flowed from Harry's palms into Dumb's body, under the surging and scorching energy, Dumb's meridians started to become active. He took a deep breath and sank his consciousness into his Dan Tian, working with Harry's qi to clear the meridians in his body.
Harry's Green Lotus Qi was a neutral type of qi, and its characteristics were neutral and peaceful, vast and vast. It was very suitable to guide the qi. Dumb's strength had already surpassed Harry's, and with his help, he was able to control the golden body in his body, straightening out the stagnant meridians and chaotic internal energy. After a while, he was in a meditative state. Green and white light enveloped Dumb and Harry's bodies. Under the combined efforts of the two Sword Saints, the stagnant meridians were quickly cleared, and the qi in Dumb's body gradually returned to normal.
Two hours later, the two slowly stopped and opened their eyes at almost the same time.
Harry's eyes revealed a look of surprise, and he said doubtfully, "Kid, how did you train your martial arts? How is it that in less than a year, you're already so much stronger than last time? "
Listening to Harry's words, Dumb couldn't help but recall the ardent hope that Tiangang Kensei had for him when he had passed on his martial arts to him. He sighed and said, "I'm sorry, uncle. This is our Tiangang School's secret, and I can't tell you. Perhaps you'll get your answer when the Four Great Sword Saints compete. "
Harry smiled bitterly and said, "I don't even want to go now. Even Tiangang Kensei's grand-disciple is stronger than me. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me to go? Kid, the stagnant meridians in your body seem to have something to do with your emotions. These days, you must have suffered a lot. Is it because of revenge for your uncle? How is the assassin's union? "
Dumb's eyes darkened, and he said, "It's not just about revenge. There are other reasons." Then, he told Harry everything that happened after he left the village, including how the little girl died. He also told him about how he killed Mica Province's governor and his wife, as well as Tiro. He only hid the part about the misunderstanding between him and Yue.
After listening to Dumb's narration, the Western Sword Saint Harry was silent. Feeling the strong sadness in Dumb's heart, he couldn't help but have an indescribable feeling for the wooden youth in front of him. He sighed and said, "Kid, I didn't expect you to have such a rough experience. I'm old. If the same thing happened to me, I'm afraid I would have broken down a long time ago. I can see that your state of mind is not far from breaking down. You must persevere and get through this period of spiritual decline. When that time comes, your future will be limitless. If there's anything you need help with, don't hesitate to ask. I'll do my best to help you. Ah! Oh right, you killed the Northern Sword Saint's in-name braid. That old fellow Yutu is famous for being protective of his people. I'm afraid he won't let you go so easily. You must be careful. That old fellow's fire energy is very powerful. It's a very overbearing fighting energy. It's even stronger than fire magic. Even Disi had to spend some effort to deal with him. "
Dumb snorted and said with slight anger, "He didn't teach his students well, and he still wants to find trouble with me? I'm not afraid of him. "
Harry smiled and said, "With your current strength, you can indeed compete with Yutu. But it's better to be careful. After all, it's not a good thing to offend a Sword Saint! However, that in-name disciple of Yutu actually abused your friend. He deserves to die. When I see Yutu, I'll speak up for you. He should give me some face. With Disi, there's nothing Yutu can do to you. Oh right, what about the dark forces you mentioned last time? Who's the winner between the Holy Hall and them? "
Dumb sighed and said, "There's no winner yet. The Holy Hall has been spreading out their manpower to find the whereabouts of the dark forces. But until now, there's not even a single clue. They're completely passive.
Harry nodded and said, "If the dark forces are too rampant, I won't stand by and do nothing. After all, if humans want to survive on this continent, they must completely eradicate the dark forces. Dumb, are you going to help the Holy Hall? "
Dumb was stunned. When the Holy Hall was mentioned, he couldn't help but think of Xuanyue. Because of the girl's death, he had almost forgotten about the guilt he felt towards Xuanyue. Now that he suddenly thought of her, his body couldn't help but tremble. He said quietly, "There are so many masters in the Holy Hall. I don't think they need my help."
Harry said, "You can't say that. There are many masters in the Holy Hall, but I don't think anyone can reach your level except for Pope. Kid, don't belittle yourself. When the continent is in danger, you should make some contributions to humanity. Don't forget the principle of upholding justice in the Tiangang School. When the time comes, Diss will definitely lead your school to help the Holy Hall fight against the dark forces. "
After hearing Harry's words, Dumb's mind cleared up. That's right! How can I ignore justice because of my love? If the dark forces completely invade the continent, it will bring about a great disaster! That's definitely not what I want to see. Grandmaster doesn't want to see it either. Even Harry is willing to give up his peaceful life to help the continent. How can I escape from the great trust of Grandmaster? Dumb nodded firmly and said, "Don't worry. Once something happens, I won't back down."
Harry nodded happily and said, "When the continent calms down, if we're still alive, you can come and live with me. We can practice martial arts every day. Ever since I fought with you that day, my hands have been itching! "
Dumby smiled faintly and said, "Anytime. If you're willing, we can have a fight now. "
Harry shook his head and said, "Now? Forget it. You haven't fully recovered yet. I don't want Diss to say that I bullied his grand-disciple. Plus, I've developed a few secret arts recently. I'll let Diss try them during the competition between the four sword saints. I have to keep it a secret now. Well, it's getting late. Let's go out. My wife will be back soon. "
The dinner was very sumptuous. They ate all the food that Harry and his family could only eat during festivals. Harry's wife was still very hospitable. Especially when she knew that Xiao Huan would stay and live with them, she was very excited. She wanted Xiao Huan to be her goddaughter. Xiao Huan who had always been in sorrow, under the Harry family's enthusiasm, her delicate little face had a trace of smile, and also a little rosier. Seeing that Xiao Huan had gradually integrated into Harry's family, Dumb was relieved.
Late at night, everyone had already gone to bed. Dumb and Harry stood in the courtyard. Looking at the starry sky, Harry said, "Dumb, where are you going now?"
Dumb was stunned. He shook his head and said, "I don't know. The world is so big, but there seems to be no place for me."
Harry smiled and said, "How can you say that? At least Tiangang School is your home! If you don't want to go back, you can stay here with me. Wait until the competition between the four sword saints. Then we'll go to Tiangang School together. "
Dumb mournfully said, "No, I don't want my sorrow to affect you guys. The me now is not suitable for the peaceful life in Hack Village. "
Harry said indifferently, "Child, the sorrow in your heart can only be resolved by yourself. The dead are gone. The living have to continue living. Actually you have to think clearly. The dead have only gone to another world. Their souls will not disappear. Just like your friend called the little girl, she suffered a lot of difficulties in our world, but when her soul goes to another world, she might be able to live a happy life. You don't need to worry about that, it's the will of the heavens in the unseen world. Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a rich man. He was very stingy. Not only to others, he was also stingy to himself. He could not bear to eat or wear. He was desperate to squeeze every copper coin. Finally, when he was seventy years old, he became the richest man in the world. But, at that time, his body had completely deteriorated due to lack of nutrition. He used all his money to build a huge underground tomb for himself. He waited for his death inside. He felt that he was the happiest. But, when his consciousness was hazy, the various things he did before kept flashing past his mind. He suddenly understood everything. Wealth can't be brought with you when you die. The money he accumulated was not something he could enjoy. However, it was too late for him to realize this. In his remorse, he died, and the luxurious tomb he built with his wealth eventually became a paradise for grave robbers. "
After listening to Harry's story, Dumb's heart moved. He seemed to understand something, but he couldn't explain it clearly. He murmured, "Uncle Harry, what do you mean?"
Harry didn't answer him. His voice was still calm. "A young man. He was mischievous since he was young. His parents were worried sick. He was the youngest child in his family. When he was eighteen, his parents were already in their sixties. One day, a plague suddenly broke out in the village he lived in. It took away his old parents' lives. His parents died. The young man then realized how important they were to him. He kept crying beside their bodies, promising them everything. But, no matter what he did, it was useless. His parents were already dead. The truth couldn't be changed. At this time, a very old man came to his side. He asked him, 'Is there any use in telling them these things now?' The young man replied, "I hope that my parents' souls can rest in peace in heaven. The old man disdainfully said, "Their souls can't hear you. You didn't cherish them when they were alive. What's the use of saying these things now? Everything is just a waste of your breath. "The young man understood. He didn't know what to do. He looked at the old man and asked, "Then what should I do now?" The old man only said six words and floated away. After listening to these six words, the young man understood everything. From then on, he became a useful person in the village. No matter who was in trouble, he would help. He was good to everyone. After five years, the old man appeared again. He told the young man that he had passed the test. He took him away from the village to a big mountain. He taught him all his skills. " Harry turned to look at Dumb. His eyes glistened with tears. He sighed. "This young man is me. And that old man is my teacher. It was my teacher who reminded me when I was in the deepest pain. He made me who I am today. "
After listening to Harry's story, Dumb's body trembled. He murmured, "Uncle, what did your teacher say to you?"
Harry took a deep breath. He looked up at the starry sky and said, "Go. Go. I hope I can wake you up like how my teacher did to me. At that time, my teacher told me six words: cherish the living. "Then, with a flash of green light, Harry's figure disappeared.
Standing in the yard, Dumb's heart was filled with all kinds of complicated emotions. He murmured, "Cherish the living. Cherish the living. " Although he didn't fully understand the meaning of Harry's words, he didn't feel so sad anymore. He looked back at Harry's room. He said, "Thank you, Uncle Harry. I'll leave Xiao Huan in your care." After saying this, Dumby activated the Vital Qi that had basically recovered, floated up, and flew in a certain direction.
Feeling that Dumb's aura had disappeared, Harry appeared in the yard again. There was a faint smile on his old face. "Child, I believe you will understand."
The sound of the wind was constantly raging in his ears. Dumb kept repeating the words Harry told him. Wrapped in a white light, his body was like a shooting star. Dumb didn't deliberately pursue speed. The two stories of the Western Sword Saint Harry kept echoing in his mind. After an unknown amount of time, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed. He couldn't help but stop.
In front of him was a huge city. The city walls were more than 30 meters high and were completely made of huge stones. In front of the city, there was a moat about 20 meters wide. The drawbridge that connected the two sides of the city was put away. In the dark night, it seemed so peaceful. Above the wide city gate in the middle of the city wall hung a stone plaque. On it were three characters written in the language of the Holy Hall – City of Light.
City of Light? I've arrived at the City of Light? Harry Village was not far from the City of Light. Unknowingly, Dumb had already arrived at the capital of the Light Province. Looking at the familiar city wall, Dumb couldn't help but think of the President of the Continental Union of Magicians, Cary, the Lord of the City of Light, Aldos, and everything that he had experienced here. It was in this city that he subdued the bone dragon. Now that he thought about it, those people who had attacked the Sorcerers Guild should belong to the dark forces. Since he was already here, he might as well go into the city to have a look.
Elder brother activated his vital energy and flew high into the sky. He flew into the city just like how he entered Mica City. Although it was very quiet outside the city, after all, night had just fallen, and the streets of the City of Light were still very lively. Dumb just wanted to find a quiet place to think about Harry's words. Therefore, he found an inn and stayed there. After telling the waiter not to disturb him, he entered the room.
The room of the inn was very tidy. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Dumb took out the portrait of Bing and the little girl and placed it in front of him. Looking at Bing, and then at the little girl, he murmured, "Can you tell me what I should do now? "Ice, girl, are your souls in the other world as happy as Uncle Harry said?" It must be. You have suffered so much on the continent. No matter how cruel God is, he can't bear to let you suffer any more. I've already avenged all of you. Your soul can live in that world with peace of mind. "In a faint sorrow, Dumb closed his eyes and entered into a meditative state. He had to adjust his power to the best state as soon as possible, because he knew that only when he maintained his best state would his mind be the clearest. At that time, perhaps he would be able to figure everything out.
The golden body lit up under the activation of Dumb. Ever since he had entered the seventh realm of Life Transformation with Xi Wen and the others, Dumb had not cultivated properly. At this time, he deliberately activated the vital energy in his body. He suddenly felt that his body was so empty. The originally liquid vital energy was even more condensed, leaving more space in his body. Inwardly delighted, Dumb knew that this situation proved that his power had improved again. As long as he could replenish the liquid vital energy in his body, he could reach the level of Grandmaster Tiangang Kensei. While thinking, Dumb began to activate the wave-like vital energy. Because the vital energy had become extremely condensed, the replenishment process was surprisingly slow. With each cycle, the condensed vital energy could only increase by a very small amount. But Dumb was not in a hurry. What he wanted most at this time was to find a spiritual sustenance. Cultivation was just to fulfill his wish.
