Heart knot
The moment the door opened, the combing girl's restriction was lifted, and Lu Wantong saw little Wanqi Si through the crack in the door.
She leaped up and ran quickly in front of him, blocking the comb filled with evil spirit in the woman's hand.
"Are you okay, Ah Si?"
"Mom, I'm fine."
The Blood Demon heard the noise in the house and the fireworks quickly hit the eaves.
Lu Wantong, holding little Wanqi Si in his arms, rolled out from the windowsill in a panic and was blown far away by the heat wave.
She was distracted to save little Wanqi Si, causing Wanqi Yuan to fight against the two demons alone.
Wanqi Yuan raised his sword to block the evil demon's double sword attacks, but he was unable to stop the blood demon from blasting fireworks at the villagers behind him.
In an instant, a raging fire broke out in Liangxing Village.
The villagers' cries were deafening.
"Madam, send Ah Si away first!"
He shouted in the direction of Lu Wantong, and then closed his eyes at the same time as her, and gathered his spiritual power on Xiao Wanqi Si.
Little Wanqi Si pounded the spiritual power shield with tears in his eyes, but the outside world could not hear the sound he made.
Lu Wantong opened his eyes and looked at his son reluctantly.
The next second, the blood demon's fireworks hit her back, and a mouthful of blood rushed up her throat.
He saw his mother speak with tears in her eyes, and could make out what she said from the shape of her lips.
"I'm sorry, live on."
The two of them used up almost half of their spiritual power to send little Wanqi Si away and keep him away from this disaster.
When the spiritual power shield disappeared and little Wanqi Si's figure was completely out of sight, she wiped the tears from her cheeks, drew her sword, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Wanqi Yuan.
Their children are not the only ones who need protection.
There are also these innocent villagers and Liangxing Village.
How could they possibly be a match for the two demons after losing a lot of spiritual power?
So they held hands and looked around, their eyes reluctant to leave.
Yu Heyi stood there in a daze, having already guessed their next move.
They wanted to burn their cultivation to temporarily gain the power to fight against the two demons.
They had already made preparations, and the look they gave to little Wanqi Si was not only one of reluctance but also of farewell.
This is not just parental love, but also the great love for all living beings.
Burning your cultivation is equivalent to burning your life.
They are risking their lives to buy time for the villagers to escape.
"We are not only Ah Si's parents, but also the protectors of this village."
"It's a pity that I won't be able to see Ah Si again. He has to grow up alone."
"A Si is a man of integrity. He won't blame you."
Wanqi Yuan wiped the tears from her cheeks, raised the back of her hand in front of him, lowered his head and kissed her.
This battle is our final farewell.
As long as there were still villagers who had not escaped, they would grit their teeth, stand up and continue to fight against the two demons.
Fall again and again, and stand up again and again.
Because of their persistence, the casualties in the village were not heavy.
Only a few unlucky ones were hit by the blood demon's fireworks and died instantly.
Until there was no one left in the village except them.
As the long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, Lu Wantong spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backwards.
Seeing this, Wanqi Yuan threw the sword in his hand towards the two demons and flew forward to support her.
Regardless of the evil demon slashing at him with two swords, or the blood demon's fierce fireworks attack, he hugged his wife, exposing his back.
Originally they were able to fight against the two demons.
But for their beloved little Wanqi Si, and for this group of simple and enthusiastic villagers.
Death is not scary, at least it protects the people they cherish.
But at the moment of death, he also fulfilled his husband's duties and protected his wife.
Until death.
After the two men lost their breath and fell to the ground dead, the two demons searched the village again, but did not find the child, so they thought he was dead.
The evil demon put away his two swords and left with satisfaction.
In order to prevent hidden dangers, the Blood Demon raised his hand and released a fire, setting the village on fire before leaving.
The black fireworks, carrying evil spirits, eroded the entire village bit by bit.
Houses collapsed and trees were burned to death, but the evil spirit still lingered in the village for a long time.
There is no grass growing in the village and resentment is rampant.
From then on, no one dared to go to this unrecognizable village.
Yu Heyi squatted on the ground, quietly looking at Wanqi Si's parents, and even died in a hugging posture.
He must feel sorry for his wife too.
She wanted to reach out and wipe away the tears on their faces, but fireworks shot out before she could reach out.
Burn them to ashes.
A few days later, when little Wanqi Si stumbled over, all that was left in the village was a desolate scene and ashes all over the ground.
He knelt at the entrance of the village, tears streaming down his little face.
The illusion ended and she fell out of it.
I saw the boatman and the group of little ghosts collapsed on the ground exhausted, gasping for breath.
"Lady, can we go now?"
Seeing her appear, the boatman quickly stood up and asked her, fearing that she would come up with some new idea to torture them, and he was eager to leave this place.
Yu Heyi waved his hands to signal them to leave and remained silent.
Then he stood up and trotted all the way to a shop in the human world to buy some grass seeds, and even spent a lot of money to buy a pot of beautiful flowers.
She held these things in her arms and rubbed the mud all over her body.
As soon as I arrived outside Liangxing Village, I bumped into someone and the grass seeds in my hand fell to the ground.
"Who is it?" She raised her head unhappily, and her breath suddenly stopped when she saw him. "Senior Brother?"
Thinking of the little Wanqi Si in that environment, she felt so heartbroken.
Wanqi Si frowned and glanced at her, asking in a cold voice, "Yu Heyi, you're holding a pile of mud, do you want to be a farmer?"
When she lowered her head and saw her dirty clothes, she finally understood why the other person had been frowning.
It turned out that the mud on his clothes had rubbed off on him.
She said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Senior Brother, but why are you here? Did you pick up Little Tiger?"
"No, I didn't see it in the Spirit Beast Garden. Mi Xiu sent a message saying you were looking for me, but I didn't see you. I was afraid you might cause trouble, so I came to find you first."
"Brother, since you are here, please accompany me to plant trees and flowers!"
"Not interested."
He crossed his arms over his chest and took a half step back, keeping some distance from her to prevent the mud from rubbing against him again.
Since he didn't want to, Yu Heyi didn't force him.
She muttered, "Oh, I forgot to buy the catalpa..."
Not minding the dirt, she simply dug up the soil with her hands, buried the seeds, and then covered them with soil.
Then he sat down cross-legged and used the spiritual power in his immortal bones to purify the evil spirit in the land.
Repeat over and over again, never getting tired of it.
Wanqi Si sat day after day, and she planted day after day.
Halfway through, she asked, "Brother, don't you go find the little tiger first?"
"Wait for you, no harm."
Her spiritual power was weak, and she couldn't purify all the evil spirits in one breath, so she could only do it bit by bit.
Although Wanqi Si turned a deaf ear to her, she knew that this guy was always secretly releasing his spiritual power to help her.
Only after the last seed was planted and the evil spirit in Liangxing Village was completely purified did she skip to the Mingliu River to wash the dirt off her hands and brush off the mud hanging on her clothes.
Then she trotted over to him and spoke to comfort him in a gentle voice.
"Brother, cry if you want to. Brother Mi Xiu, Master and I will always be with you."
It's like coaxing a child.
But in a moment, he raised his hand and pushed away the other person's head that was approaching: "I'm not sad."
"I killed the combing girl and the woman who kidnapped me a long time ago. The evil demon and the blood demon are also dead. There is nothing to be sad about."
"How could I not be sad? I saw you crying all the time."
His face turned cold instantly, and his teeth chattered: "I didn't cry."
"You were obviously crying, your little cry was so sad, it hurt me just watching you."
Knowing that she had seen the past of Liangxing Village in some way, he was too lazy to argue with her.
There is a towering tree standing by the Mingliu River, emitting a faint divine power and spiritual power, which is very friendly.
"Yu Heyi, I have to say you're quite suitable for planting trees. Why don't you just go back to the sect and plant trees..."
His voice stopped abruptly, and he suddenly felt the warmth of the girl beside him, smelled a floral scent on his nose, and his heart skipped a beat.
She seemed to... hold him.
Then she placed her cheek affectionately against his forehead and gently patted his back.
Wanqi Si stood there in a daze, unable to utter a word for a moment.
After finally regaining his composure, he pushed her head away again, and she pressed her face into his palm again.
He turned his head away from her, feeling uncomfortable: "Yu Heyi, do you know what you are doing?"
"I know." She touched his cheek again. Since she couldn't touch his chubby little face in the illusion, it would be the same if she touched his grown-up face. "I'm comforting you and giving you a hug."
This is what Qiali taught her.
Qiali said that no matter who you are, you often need a hug the most when you are most vulnerable.
Wanqi Si should be the same.
This village records the most painful memories of his childhood, and she gives him a warm hug to comfort him.
She was so excited that she felt like she was indeed the best junior sister in the world!
"Didn't your parents teach you that men and women shouldn't touch each other?"
"Brother, I have no parents and grew up alone. Besides, it's not good for a junior sister to comfort a senior brother."
Seeing that he didn't push her away again, she remained in this position without moving.
Not many people knew about his experience, perhaps only three people including Yu and Yi.
The master was unwilling to mention this matter from beginning to end, and Mi Xiu advised him to look forward and not be trapped in the past.
Only she whispered to herself that it was okay to be sad and to cry.
She personally gave this deserted village a touch of life.
Seeds watered by spiritual energy grew at an extremely fast rate. Looking at the pointed green shoots emerging from the soil, the wall in his heart suddenly collapsed.
She said, "If your parents knew that you are now a leader in the Taiyan Sect, they would be very pleased. Brother, they miss you too."
He did draw warmth from her.
Whether physically or mentally.
Yu Heyi planted the seeds in order to revitalize the village and purify the evil spirit.
And those flowers were given to Wanqi Yuan and Lu Handong.
But she didn't hold him for long. When her arm felt numb, she pulled it out and sat next to him.
She placed her hands on the ground, her eyes shining: "Brother, please look at the moon."
"The moon is right above our heads, do you still need me to look at it?"
“This is different.”
But she couldn't answer what was different.
The two of them sat like this all night, and only stood up when it was getting light.
Liangxing Village behind it was no longer eroded by evil spirits, and gradually some green appeared in it. The divine power of the "energy station" could also nourish the village.
His knot in his heart was finally untied.
Looking at Yu Heyi's back, he silently thanked her.
After a while, Wanqi Si spoke in a hoarse voice: "Yu Heyi, after you find the spirit tiger, return to Taiyan Sect and I will take you to a place."
She didn't ask any more questions and nodded with a smile.
Knowing that this time she finally didn't have to follow the map and walk to Cangmi Sect, and could ask her senior brother to carry her on his sword, she was filled with joy for a moment.
However, the good times did not last long. As soon as she stepped on the silver sword, Wanqi Si coldly grabbed her wrist.
"Where does the resentment in you come from?"
