Volume 2, Chapter 64: Snow in Zhulu City.
In Zhulu City, the first snow of winter fell for a long, long time.
Jinghong would squat at the door as usual after school, looking into the distance at the road.
There were two snowmen built beside her.
One big and one small.
The big snowman carries a sword on his back.
The little snowman has a small cloth bag hanging around his waist.
She sat between the two snowmen, leaning her little head on her hand and puffing out her cheeks.
There is expectation and waiting in his eyes.
"Jinghong, it's time to eat." Qingfeng's voice sounded, as deep as usual.
Jinghong said without turning around: "I know, I'll be right there."
She stood up and blew on her little hands.
There was also mist hanging on her long eyelashes.
She first touched the little snowman's head, and then turned around and hugged the big snowman's belly.
I turned my head and took another look at the long street covered with thick snow.
A look of loss quietly appeared in his eyes and then disappeared in a flash.
In front of the deserted dinner table.
The three of them sat sparsely.
Today's dining table seems to be bigger and not as crowded as before.
Qingfeng was shoveling rice with his head down, a dazed look in his eyes, but he didn't notice that the rice in the bowl was gone.
Jinghong was in a daze, her little hands, one holding chopsticks and the other holding a bowl, poking there.
Her small, beautiful eyebrows were filled with deep sorrow.
She looked at Feng He, pouted, and asked, "Second brother, why hasn't the eldest brother come back yet? It's almost the New Year."
Feng He continued to eat, a flash of pain in his eyes.
Qingfeng also stopped and looked up at his second brother.
What Jinghong asked was also what he wanted to ask.
Feng He's tone was very flat.
He said, "It will be soon. It will only take a few days." He picked up a piece of radish for Jinghong and continued, "Eat more vegetables. Big brother specifically told you not to be picky about food before he left, otherwise you won't grow taller."
Jinghong's eyes narrowed into crescents. When she heard her second brother say that her eldest brother was about to come back, she was naturally happy.
However, when he saw the radishes in the bowl, he couldn't help but frown.
He pouted and said, "Can I not eat it?"
"What do you say? If you don't eat it, I'll beat you up."
"Oh... Then I'll listen to my brother and eat a little."
Qingfeng was not as happy as he had imagined, even though Fenghe's answer was what he wanted, but he knew that his second brother was lying.
The second brother is the worst at lying.
Not before, but now... he didn't know. He shook his head and tried not to think about those things.
Because he couldn't bear such an answer.
He would rather believe that what his second brother said was true, just like before.
I never lied before, and I don't lie now.
Even if it's a bit self-deceptive.
After a while, Feng He was the first to put down his bowl and chopsticks.
"Okay, I'm full. I'm going to watch the chess game. Qingfeng, take your sister to bed early tonight, okay?"
Qingfeng nodded after hearing this.
"Got it, second brother!"
Feng He continued, "Also, Jinghong, you are not allowed to drink."
His tone was somewhat serious, imitating Ye Tingmu's attitude.
Jinghong stuck out her tongue at him and made a face.
"Second brother, you are becoming more and more long-winded, just like the eldest brother."
Feng He frowned, said nothing, and walked out of the house.
He hurried across the yard and walked out of the gate.
On a snowy day, he was still wearing only a single piece of clothing, just like when he was in his hometown of Yecheng.
He is never afraid of the cold.
His eyes turned to the big and small snowmen at the door.
His eyes instantly turned red.
He wiped his eyes fiercely with his sleeve.
Then he headed towards Zhulu Academy in the wind and snow.
As early as two months ago, somehow.
When Guanqi turned ten, his spiritual roots suddenly awakened.
Not to mention the strange phenomena that occurred in heaven and earth.
Two beams of light appeared around his body.
One white and one black, soaring into the sky.
Then I entered a state of concentration while watching chess.
Liu Bai and others said that Guan Qi had a sudden realization and that she was a genius.
A peerless genius.
The best in the East China Sea.
But he didn't understand these things and no longer cared about them. He just wanted to know whether Guanqi could wake up.
But Liu Bai and the others didn't know either, because this was the first time they had seen someone watching chess.
There are records in history books about awakening that can bring about strange phenomena in heaven and earth.
But awakening, or enlightenment, has never happened.
You know, enlightenment is very difficult, very difficult.
You can tell this from Liu Bai’s sudden enlightenment and his attainment of sainthood.
It all depends on one's own chance.
So for those watching chess, sudden enlightenment is a good thing, not a bad thing.
But Feng He doesn't understand these.
Seeing that the saints didn't understand, he went to ask Dahei.
Dahei said that what Guanqi awakened was the immortal root, and it was a unique dual-attribute immortal root.
She possesses both light and dark attributes in her body.
The reason why she fell into a state of enlightenment.
It is these two attributes, light and darkness, that merge in her body.
As long as you succeed, you will wake up.
It can take several years or even several months.
uncertain.
He still didn't understand, but Dahei said that if watching chess could wake him up, then that would be fine.
And a few days ago, he also received the news.
News about Wanshou Mountain.
In Wanshou Mountain, the immortal tomb was dug up, and it was suspected that it was done by his eldest brother.
Within three days, ten saints from the eight divine kingdoms died one after another in the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts.
The bloodline of the gods of the Seven Gods Kingdom was wiped out by Ye Tingmu.
Ye Tingmu killed the saint with extraordinary power.
He knew all the news about etc.
This time at the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts, the eight great divine clans suffered heavy losses.
All saints have fallen.
The geniuses of this generation are almost extinct.
Only more than 60 people from the Chao family survived.
The Kyushu Empire suffered heavy losses.
The total number of sects and families from Jiuzhou that went to Wanshou Mountain this time was nearly 100,000 people.
Almost annihilated.
According to current statistics, there are less than 1,000 survivors who have entered the customs.
The three saints shed blood in the Eastern Wasteland.
Above the extraordinary, no one survived, all died in battle.
As for his elder brother Ye Tingmu, his whereabouts are still unknown as he has to cover the retreat.
In a few days, the Chao family and Li Gao and others should be able to return to Kyoto.
But there was still no news about his elder brother.
This made him very worried.
Fortunately, my brother’s life lamp is still lit.
This may be the only consolation.
The younger sister suddenly realized her mistake and fell into a coma, and the elder brother's whereabouts were unknown.
The double blow made this man, who had been as strong as steel since childhood, cry.
This was the first time he cried since he was ten years old.
He couldn't help but let his tears flow. No matter how he tried to hold them back, whether he wiped them or blinked up to the sky, it was all in vain.
He did not tell Qingfeng and Jinghong about these things.
Because he knew that if it was his eldest brother, he would definitely choose to hide it.
When his eldest brother is not around, he has to take good care of his younger siblings.
This was his elder brother's instruction to him.
However, Qingfeng, who was only twelve or thirteen years old, had already grown up, so how could he not know?
He just didn't want his second brother to be troubled.
night.
By the dim light.
Qingfeng sat at the head of the bed holding a book and reading slowly, while Jinghong lay on his lap and fell into a deep sleep.
