Chapter 156 Darkness cages the world, but there is also light shining

The shopkeeper had been hiding behind the counter and was not very clear about the incident. He was almost scared to death. He didn't listen to the conversation between Ouyang Shengxue and the old man at all.

Although there were three corpses lying in the inn, in his opinion, Ouyang Shengxue's white-faced scholar's appearance could not be a villain. He thought that in the process of fear, all the people who fought and killed had left, so he simply walked around the counter and rushed towards the waiter, as if he was eager to get some comfort.

Ouyang Shengxue naturally had no intention of disturbing the inn shopkeeper and the waiter's affection. He turned his head silently and just looked at the mother who was also looking at her in the corner.

He was a mother who looked very young, but she was not really young. The specific age could be roughly seen. After all, the child she was holding in her arms looked like she was about nine to ten years old, but her face and temperament seemed younger.

Xu is just as Ouyang Shengxue guessed, from a wealthy family, he is very attentive to his own maintenance, far beyond the comparison of women from ordinary people.

The mother comforted the child in her arms softly, then took his hand, walked to Ouyang Shengxue's approach, saluted slowly, and said softly: "Thank you, my husband, to help me."

Ouyang Shengxue waved his hand slightly and said, "I am just doing things according to my own wishes. Although I am curious about why you were hunted down by a practitioner, if you don't want to say it, I don't want to force it. But since I have encountered it, I still want to help you solve the problems."

He is indeed following his own wishes, but he often causes trouble. Even if he hates trouble in his heart, he is such a person.

He would not doubt whether the mother and son would have any extraordinary identities or hidden unknown secrets inside. He only needed to determine that the old man's opponent was wrong to kill the ordinary man who had no power, so he would go on firmly. If he had saved the mother and son, he would save the whole thing.

It was also similar to the thing I encountered in Liang County. Although it was Xiao Yaoer's request, it was Ouyang Shengxue's intention, so he killed all the bandits in Liang County overnight.

Ouyang Shengxue is a very contradictory person. She is very decisive when she is decisive and indecisive when she is gentle.

But as long as he determines it, it will not change easily.

The mother seemed a little hesitant, but perhaps Ouyang Shengxue had just saved them, and just from her face, Ouyang Shengxue did easily bring people good feelings. She smiled softly and softly. She was only confused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Actually, there is nothing that cannot be said."

She temporarily entrusted her child to the shopkeeper and waiter who had recovered from his senses, and then went out the door with Ouyang Shengxue and stood under the eaves in front of the inn. The wind and rain were swaying, and the rain curtain fell down the eaves, as crystal clear as a string of pearls.

It is not the first time that the inn shopkeeper and the waiter have encountered such a thing, but it is not as dead as a person. It is because they drive the inn a little far away from the town. People often appear in the world. Fighting and killing are naturally common. There are blood, but it is the first time that three people die in a row.

They were a little panicked at first, but when they recovered, their ability to accept was quite good and they would not be completely stupid. However, they still felt a little numb when they stayed with the three bodies, so they protected the child and came to the back of the counter and silently looked at the two figures outside the inn.

Ouyang Shengxue listened carefully to the mother's whisper. When he heard a more familiar name, he couldn't help but interrupt the other party and asked curiously: "The Yue Shiting you mentioned is the doctor of the Censorate and Lord Yue?"

The mother nodded slightly, her expression became a little sad. She looked back at her child and said, "I am Yue Shiting's wife. It seems that she offended someone because Shiting offended someone. One day she suddenly said she wanted to send us mother and son out of the city temporarily. Although I don't understand what happened in my heart, I know that Shiting's actions cannot be without reason. He is worried about the safety of our mother and son."

"We have been away from the capital for many days, but we don't know where to go. We thought we might be able to go back soon, and we didn't dare to leave too far. We just tried to walk towards a more remote road. The day before yesterday, the capital came to the death of Shige, saying that he was killed hundreds of miles outside the East City Gate."

Speaking of this, her tone became choked, she covered her mouth with her hands. The grief in her emotions, the unwillingness in her eyes, and even some hatred that she didn't know who to show to her made her gradually start to collapse.

Although the murder of Yue Shiting has not yet reached the point that everyone knows, it is no longer a secret that hundreds of miles are located near the capital. It has even been spread here and into the ears of their mother and son.

This is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Yue.

Although it was not what just happened, Yue's emotions were still on the verge of collapse. She just held back her own child because she was by her side and didn't want the child to understand the grief of losing her father. Although the child was in the inn at this moment, she still couldn't hold on.

Ouyang Shengxue was not very clear about this matter, but he probably heard about Yue Shiting's murder along the way, and Xuanzhengsi and Langya Jingzhao Prefecture were investigating with all their efforts.

There was a monk outside the mountain in the capital, but it did not spread outside the capital. Many people in the capital didn't even know what kind of battles happened outside the four city gates that night, especially the south city gate.

But Ouyang Shengxue had met Yue Shiting several times in the capital. He was surprised and even shocked when he heard that Yue Shiting was killed.

He could clearly know what Yue felt at this moment, and the truth was far more than just learning the news of her husband's death, but someone was spared no effort to chase and kill them.

There must be a connection between the people who pursued them and the people who killed Yue Shiting, which is undoubtedly a matter of no doubt.

"I don't know what happened in the capital, but Lord Yue is indeed a kind-hearted person. Now that someone is chasing you, you can't go back to the capital. Since Lord Yue sent you out of the city in advance, he probably expected that something might happen to him and that the person who could kill Lord Yue outside the capital should not be underestimated."

Ouyang Shengxue recalled what the old man said before his death. It was indeed a big trouble, but since he made a decision, he would not be afraid of such trouble.

Moreover, he had a good impression of Yue Shiting. Even though he had never had too in-depth conversations, he was acquainted after all, and he had the idea of ​​protecting the Yue family and his son.

It is obviously impossible for the Yue family and his son to return to the capital.

Unless they are finding out the murderer who actually killed Yue Shiting, once they appear, they indicate that they will face the danger of being killed all the time.

Ouyang Shengxue looked at Yue and said seriously: "If you can trust me, I will protect you with you in the next few days. If there are pursuers again, I will solve them one by one. Although I cannot make any promises, I will also try my best to find the murderer who killed Lord Yue. During this period, you need to go to a place that is easily impossible to find, change your identity, and live strongly. This may also be Master Yue's wish."

No matter where the Yue family and his son were going, they would never return to the capital before the case of Yue Shiting's murder was solved.

Ouyang Shengxue followed her wishes and at least ensured that she would escort her mother and son to a safe place.

Yue agreed to Ouyang Shengxue's suggestion. She looked back at the child who was amused by the waiter in the inn. As a wife, she had the idea of ​​following her husband, but as a mother, she also had to protect her children.

The night rain is still continuous, and the thunder explodes in the night sky.

Darkness envelops the world.

And not far away, there will be light shining.

......

......

Capital, Zhaixing Mansion.

The mountain gate of Zhaixing Mansion is not in the capital city, but there is also a Zhaixing Mansion in the capital city. Because the Zhaixing Mansion owner Chen Moxi is the national teacher of Jiang Kingdom, he needs to stay in the capital city at all times. Although he will leave occasionally, he will have to return to the capital city most of the time.

Although it has been several days since we fought against the monks outside the mountain outside the south gate, it is a very difficult thing for Shen Qiubai and Zhong Xiyan.

Zhuge Dan is indeed very strong and difficult to deal with, but in front of Xue Wangyou, he is just like an ant that can be crushed to death at any time.

Even if he is very famous among the younger generation, as powerful as Shen Qiubai, in front of the monks outside the mountain who have crossed the threshold of the five realms, he is just an ant that will be crushed to death at any time.

But this did not shake Shen Qiubai's mood.

There are many powerful people in the five realm in every dynasty, but in the whole world, there are not a few powerful people in the fifth realm. There are more than two or three in the Zhaixing Mansion. Moreover, the Lord of Zhaixing Mansion is a big thing at the peak of the fifth realm. Compared with this, what is Zhuge Dan?

The only difference is that Shen Qiubai really faced Zhuge Dan and tried his best to fight between life and death, and what he realized was different.

Zhong Xiyan looked at the sword in his hand, then looked up at his junior brother, and said with a smile: "We are indeed too weak when facing a real strong man."

They stood in the corridor, listening to the faint thunder sound in the night sky, and looking at the rainy curtain, their thoughts were a little different from usual.

Shen Qiubai whispered: "There are monks outside the mountain appearing in the capital, which means that we may encounter more people outside the mountain in the future. The period of demon storm is already past, but perhaps in the near future, new disasters will come to this world, and we need to become stronger."

Shen Qiubai still had the ability to resist when facing Zhuge Dan, but Zhong Xiyan could only lie on the ground and was completely suppressed and unable to move. Even though Zhong Xiyan was in a stable mood, he was still a little unwilling to accept it whenever he thought of this.

His qualifications are not as good as his junior brother Chen Qiubai. He can't rank among all the evil people in this world, but he knows how to calm down his mood and keep moving forward with the best attitude.

He recalled the incident outside the South City Gate and said curiously: "My junior brother once fought with Miss Xiao. What do you think of her performance when facing Zhuge Dan?"

Chen Qiubai thought it seriously and said seriously: "Xiao Zhinan is a sword cultivator. He has a very high status in Beiyan. He is a side by side with the Prince Xueye. She has a strong will to swordsmanship and devotes everything to the sword gate. She has the willpower to climb to the highest mountain and her pride. Perhaps one day in the future, she will be the new sword immortal in this world."

Zhong Xiyan smiled slightly and said, "My junior brother has a high opinion of Miss Xiao."

Chen Qiubai noticed the subtle changes in his senior brother's eyes and chuckled and said, "I am just saying the facts. Xiao Zhinan from Langhuan Jianlu, Prince Beiyan Xueye from the Northern Yan, Xu Beihan from the Western Jin Dynasty, and even the second prince of the Western Jin Dynasty, and the ninth prince of Nanyu, are all the best among the younger generation of monks in the world. I cannot easily say that it is better than any of them."

There are indeed many evil people in the world. They are like the darlings of Daotian. They are walking ahead of many people at a young age, so they will naturally have the idea of ​​competing with each other.

Zhong Xi said no.

At this moment, a disciple from Zhaixing Mansion trotted over from the other end of the corridor, "Big Brother, Second Brother, Lu Changge, a disciple who is not falling outside the mansion, came to visit."
