It was getting late, and the sky was filled with colorful colors, and under the flowing clouds, smoke was rising everywhere. It was when the sun was falling, thousands of families in the mountains were setting fires.??                                                                                                       �

?b    i?q?u     g?e?.

?c?n?

In the light night, Liu Xi, a young man who had crossed the Wujiang River, had stopped at the messy house not far away, and wiped the beads of sweat that oozed out of his forehead.

Fortunately, I found such a small town before dark, otherwise I would have to sleep in the woods again. The taste was extremely uncomfortable. I had been traveling for several days and was quite tired. At this moment, what he wanted most was to take a hot bath and eat a few bites of hot soup.

Walking forward, perhaps because it is in a remote location, it is better to say that it is a village where dozens of families gather. Before the setting sun in the sky has receded, there is no one to see a figure.

Looking at the messy and dilapidated courtyards around, many of the homes could not see any fire. They were afraid that they would not be able to bear the money for the lamp and gas. They climbed onto the bed early before the dark fog was thick.

After walking for a while, the slightly disgusting fragrance floated in front of his nose made Liu Xi suffer, but along the way, he couldn't see the inn and restaurants. He couldn't help but secretly think about staying in the houses of the people and asking for some food to deal with his hunger.

Just as he was thinking, a more grand courtyard in front of him appeared in front of him. Two lanterns in front of the courtyard had been lit, radiating a faint red halo. The evening breeze with a hint of coolness blew by, the lanterns swayed and the lights danced.

The dishes in the yard are full of fragrance and there is even more laughter. It seems that you can go up and try your luck, spend some money, and stay here for one night.

Thinking of this, Liu Xi was about to step forward. Just as he was about to pick up the beast ring and knock on the door, his thin body trembled inexplicably, and his slender fingers stopped in the air.

The next moment, the beast ring fell on the vermilion wooden door, but Liu Xi had already reached several feet away and quickly headed towards the southeast of the town.

What a powerful aura of "Nine Changes of Dragons and Snakes" is my uncle Liu Han!

These days, Liu Xi has been chasing all the way from the Western Han Dynasty to find his uncle who suddenly left without saying goodbye. Now that he has news about him, he still cares about fatigue and exhaustion. He uses all his energy on his body, and wishes he can fly to the place where the breath comes.

The white clothes were rustling, and Liu Xi's body was covered with a layer of light as light as flowing water, just like a frost falling from the sky.

His body was chasing the moon like a meteor, moving forward rapidly, and his toes stepped on the blue bricks, leaving a crack about an inch long.

After passing through several low houses, Liu Xi was about to turn into a narrow alley, but saw a black shadow pounced on him like lightning, and immediately fisted and was about to hit him.

"Xi'er, it's me."

The most familiar voice sounded, and Liu Xi hurriedly pushed his body to the side, and smashed his fist with all his strength to the red brick mud wall on one side. The brick chips immediately flew out and the fist broke out of the wall.

He didn't care about the blood marks on the back of his hand, and followed Liu Han and ran away again.

The two of them had a quick tea. Liu Han in front of them suddenly stopped and looked around quickly. Then they sighed and turned around and crawled into the ruined temple on the left.

This is a land temple that protects one place, but the doors are deserted and become decayed. Gray accumulates into soil, spider webs are densely covered with large holes on the eaves, and the cold moonlight shines in from here.

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

Walking into the ruined temple, Liu Xi couldn't wait to ask. These days, he had been thinking about why Liu Han had suddenly left. The powerful aura that kept surrounding him made Liu Xi even more unable to help it. He blurted out and expressed his doubts.

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Han was almost fallen to the ground with a staggering sound. Liu Xi was so shocked that he quickly stepped forward and supported him.

With the quiet moonlight, Liu Xi saw the gentle smile that was still rising on the corners of his mouth, his eyes were still deep and bright, but there was more fatigue that could not be covered up. His fair and handsome face turned pale.

This is a pale look that makes people feel terrible.

After not seeing each other for a month, the once glorious uncle was so haggard. Liu Xi couldn't help but feel sad. When his eyes moved down, he couldn't help but exclaim.

The blue jacquard robe was dyed with blood, especially on the chest, where the red blood was still oozing out.

"uncle……"

Compared to Liu Xi's panic, Liu Han was much calmer and reached out to stop the former who wanted to use his skills to heal him. "It's useless, Xier, this is the injury of the true energy of the master of the cave world. Don't waste your energy. You and I don't have much time. My uncle will tell you all the things that have been hiding for more than ten years."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xi was stunned. Since he was a child, he and Liu Han lived in a small town in Shuichuan City, the Western Han Dynasty. Unlike those neighbors who were busy making a living every day, Liu Han was not worried about money. In addition to teaching him martial arts and classics every day, he went to a teahouse to have tea, and then hooked up with the little lady in the neighborhood.

Although he acted unruly, Liu Xi understood that his uncle was not simple. Otherwise, how could he be both civil and military?

How many times have he asked about the reason why the two lived in seclusion in the town, but Liu Han was unwilling to say it, so he had to give up. Now that he heard that the matter was mentioned again, Liu Xi couldn't help but feel shocked.

"Ahem..."

Liu Han's violent cough broke the silence in the temple and also called back Liu Xi's thoughts. He didn't wipe the blood on his mouth. His face became solemn and continued to speak, "Xi'er, remember what my uncle said below, because it is closely related to your destiny in this life."

Listening to the seriousness that had never been seen in his words, Liu Xi responded quickly, "Children should remember his uncle's words."

"Okay, Xier, remember that your father is the crown prince of the Han Dynasty and Liu Qu; his mother is Xiao Zhen, the daughter of the Censor Xiao He, and I am the third prince of the Han Dynasty. Of course, these are all before the beast ascended the throne."

Speaking of this, Liu Han's eyes were full of murderous intent. This was the first time in so many years that Liu Xi met his uncle who was free and easy to laugh all day long with such a horrifying expression.

Perhaps it was really urgent, Liu Han's chest was rising and falling for a few breaths, and then he said calmly, "I was leading troops to fight with Li Tang in Wujiang. I suddenly heard the news of my father's death. Before I could react, I was ambushed again and almost died in Wujiang."

"Later, I escaped and rushed to Chang'an without stopping, but on the way, I heard the news that the prince's brother died of illness. The beast ascended the throne, and the ministers in the court were dissatisfied. However, the three public forces, who valued by the father, disregarded the public opinion and supported him."

"A bunch of ungrateful wolves, cough cough..."

The unstoppable anger dissipated, and a cough followed. A glimmering red appeared on Liu Han's pale face, like the rouge red plums that had gradually fallen in the snow. In his eyes, there was an indescribable heart-wrenching pain.

The powerful aura was getting closer and closer, and even Liu Xi could clearly feel that the human cultivation was extremely terrifying, but he stopped ten feet outside the temple.

For some reason, I stopped moving forward.

"The beasts have not come yet, and they will not do anything, but they think they will be soon, so I have to tell you a long story. Xier, you once asked my uncle what is the most powerful martial art in the world? I didn't say at that time, in fact, there is no such powerful martial art in this world.

All things come to the same end, and practice is no exception. Any one skill can reach the realm of breaking the void. Although the "Nine Changes of Dragon and Snake" is more ordinary and different, it is much more difficult to practice than ordinary skill, so it is higher than others in its realm, but it does not mean that it is so powerful that it is unparalleled. In the future, Xier, you still need to act carefully."

"Do you remember the major sects that my uncle mentioned to you?"

Liu Xi, who had not spoken out, nodded quickly, "Remember, Confucianism, Taoism, military, medical, miscellaneous, law, Yin and Yang, Zongheng, Mohist and novelists, all the best."

"That's right, they are. At present, except for the Confucianism in the Han Dynasty, there are no traces of other sects. But Xier, you must remember that if you meet disciples of these sects in the future, don't act impulsively, because each of them can destroy a world. A few days ago, when I sneaked to Chang'an to explore what happened that year, I heard that a Buddhist appeared in the northern Huns, who came from the Western Regions, was also an amazing existence."

Extending his hand dyed with bright red blood, Liu Han took out a jade piece the size of a palm from his arms, and it was covered with green body, with a trace of swimming red mist wrapped inside. A long roaring fins stood on the jade piece.

"Xi'er, my uncle has never told you that I am actually walking in the dust of military strategists. This tiger talisman is the token. The incident that happened back then caught people off guard, so I suspected that there was a traitor in the military strategist, so I did not dare to contact the sect again. If you take this, if you have difficulties, go to Xinyang City's "Qiyixuan". There may be trustworthy people there, but you still need to be more careful."

As he said that, Liu Han's face suddenly changed. He stuffed the tiger talisman to Liu Xi, and looked around anxiously. Later, he walked to the statue of the land with a broken arm not far away, and slapped it out with a palm, and the statue of the one-meter-high was moved away.

Immediately, Liu Han stepped on the ground with his right foot, and a powerful aura erupted, mud and stones flew, and a big pit appeared on the ground.

He was injured due to exercise, and blood opened his mouth.

"Xier, hide in, hold your breath, and don't come out no matter what you do."

No matter how stupid Liu Xi was, he understood the meaning of this words. It was clearly a farewell to him. He immediately stood stubbornly and shook his head and said, "Uncle, I want to share life and death with you."

A gentle and intoxicating smile appeared on his pale face, and Liu Han looked tender, "Xi'er, you have to survive. In this way, the things that happened back then will come to light, and my uncle will be at ease."

After saying this, Liu Han took Liu Xi's sleeve and led him into the pit. The once very warm hand is now filled with a hint of coolness.

"uncle……"

Liu Xi understood that this decision could not be changed, and he felt very sad. The struggle that he wanted to fight the crisis but was unable to make was very uncomfortable.

When Liu Xi jumped into the pit, Liu Han seemed to remember what happened, and took out a sachet from his arms, with a golden silk embroidered with a lotus. He often saw this sachet. When it was silent and no one in the past, Liu Han often held it in his hand and caressed it with a sad face and a sadness in his eyes.

It seemed that at that moment, the ordinary laughter and scolding no longer existed, and it seemed that this sachet had an unresolved heart knot for him.

"Xi'er, if you have the fate in the future, when you meet Princess Li Tang and Li Yunying, you will give her a sachet, and you will say that I, Liu Han, are ashamed of her in this life."

Sighing, the desolate expression in Liu Han's eyes was fleeting, and the smile on his face remained the same. He stared at Liu Xi, as if he wanted to see the young man who had raised for eighteen years at a glance.

"Living..."

After saying this, Liu Xi, who was in the pit, wanted to say something, and saw a black shadow floating above his head, but the statue of the god was pushed back.

There was darkness around him, and Liu Xi was in a very upset. He wanted to break out of the ground, but doing this would only ruin his uncle's efforts over the years.

Gripping my teeth, tears slid down unknowingly.
