Chapter Five On the Phoenix Mountain
[Today's third update, there is another update later, I look forward to paying attention]
The next morning, news spread that after becoming a demon, Zhang Hao crazily massacred thousands of Qi soldiers and killed many martial arts people present, with a heinous crime. He was finally killed outside the capital of Qi by Lan Yaoyu and other masters. His corpses were gone, and the treasures and dragons were gone.
The news spread quickly, and the whole world was sensational, shocking everyone.
The royal family of Qi, which was so close to this news, was surprisingly quiet and confusing. Only those present that night knew that the third prince of Qi was bombarded by everyone because he wanted to force Zhang Hao away and then swallow the treasures by himself, and the royal family was completely disgraceful.
The members of the Lan family left early in the morning under the leadership of Lan Yaoyu. Lan Yaoyu wanted to rush back to repay the matter to the Lan family in the north. Although the storms of the outside world have been rumored to have a knife to death, he always feels that something is wrong.
People from all walks of life also checked out early in the morning. Soon, the originally lively Qi Kingdom suddenly became quiet, so deserted that it was a little uncomfortable.
Shangguan Ting, who was in the Shangguan Mansion, immediately fainted when she heard the news. Shangguan Feihong shook her head and sighed, secretly calling it a pity.
This time, Zhang Hao felt that he had been in the dark for a long time, "Am I dead? Is this there?" Zhang Hao asked loudly, answering him only with endless darkness and silence, without even echo.
There is no coldness of hell, no peace of heaven here, there is endless darkness and endless loneliness.
Suddenly, Zhang Hao felt a great force to grab it, and felt his soul return to his body. He opened his eyes gently and found himself lying on a wooden bed, and the Bishui Sword was still tightly grasping in his hand. It was a very simple wooden house. A young man with a kind face stood beside him. Seeing him awaken, the young man shouted to the outside world, "Grandma, he is awake, come quickly." "Grandma, he is awake, come quickly."
"Swoosh" Xiaolong rushed in first, flew to Zhang Hao's bedside, followed by a colorful bird with a chicken head, swallow's chin, snake's neck, turtle's back, and fish tail. He flew in slowly, and the glow shone brightly, filling the entire room.
"Here, come." Then an old woman walked in. Although she was covered in white hair, she was in good spirits. She looked at Zhang Hao with a kind face and said, "Young man, you have finally woken up."
Zhang Hao couldn't open his mouth, so he could only nod and look at the old woman gratefully.
After moving for a while, I wanted to crawl out, but I felt extremely painful all over my body, and I had no strength at all, so my limbs were not in control at all.
"Young man, don't be anxious, wait until you get better," the old woman knew what Zhang Hao meant, and hurriedly comforted her.
Xiaolong said angrily, "Zhang Hao, get better soon, it's fun here, I even met a new friend." After that, he pulled the bird over with his little claws.
Zhang Hao couldn't speak, so he could only look at it and nodded.
"Let your claws go, you hate it!" A childish girl's voice came from the bird's beak, and the bird could even speak, which surprised Zhang Hao inexplicably.
“Haha~”
Under the care of the old woman and the young man, Zhang Hao's body got better bit by bit and finally could speak, but his body could not move.
"Thank you for saving your life, mother-in-law." Zhang Hao finally found an opportunity to thank the old man.
"Young people are really lucky. They can survive such severe injuries." The old woman said
"How did you chase people here?" the old woman asked.
During the conversation with the old woman, Zhang Hao realized that this place was called Fenghuang Mountain, which was hundreds of miles away from Qi and was surrounded by mountains. The people here were basically isolated from the outside, and few outsiders could come here. So the old woman was surprised how Zhang Hao came here, but she was also surprised to hear that Zhang Hao came from Qidu.
"That morning, my grandson went out to hunt early in the morning. When he passed a small river, he found you lying on the river covered in blood, unconscious, and a little dragon cried beside you. He found that you still had a heartbeat, so he brought you back to treat him. Is this sword very important to you?" The old woman pointed at the blue water sword beside Zhang Hao.
"I am my good brother who has been born and died." Zhang Hao said
"Oh, no wonder, when I came back that day, I saw you holding this sword tightly in your hand, and I couldn't pull it off even if I wanted to."
At this time, the young man walked in with a bowl of porridge. Only then did Zhang Hao look at him carefully. He was about the same age as himself, with strong body and extremely developed arms. He should have been trained by hunting with bows for many years.
"This is my grandson Hou Lie"
Hou Lie smiled at Zhang Hao, revealing two rows of neat and white teeth.
After Zhang Hao had eaten the porridge, the two of them didn't want to disturb Zhang Hao's rest, so they went out. Zhang Hao was left alone lying on the bed. Looking out through the window, the trees outside were lush, the birds were singing, and the faint fragrance of flowers wafted in the wind, making people feel extremely comfortable all over.
Zhang Hao began to explore his body's condition. After giving Lan Yaoyu a joint attack, his meridians were seriously damaged. Now his body was empty. With luck, he felt extremely painful, and a trace of true energy gathered also spread out.
Zhang Hao couldn't help but sigh. His cultivation that once looked down on his peers had gone to nothing, and he was still in a deep revenge on the sea of blood. Why did he go to the Lan family to take revenge? He touched his chest with his hand. Fortunately, Yue Wu left the chain still there.
After Lan Yaoyu's sword was hit, what force brought him here? Could it be the sword soul in his body? But why did he bring it here? Zhang Hao was puzzled and fell asleep in a while.
In the dream, Zhang Hao dreamed of Yue Wu, Uncle Lin, and two old people. The happy times of childhood continued to reappear in the dream. Suddenly, the four figures disappeared from afar. Zhang Hao couldn't catch them even if he wanted to. "Don't" Zhang Hao woke up suddenly, and there were still tears in the corners of his eyes when he woke up.
At this time, there were already stars outside, and a meteor cut through the sky, leaving a long shadow and disappeared into the sky.
Zhang Hao remembered again when he was watching the meteor with Yuewu, and Yuewu's playful look came to his heart again.
"People cannot just live in the past. The past has passed. Why not let go of their obsessions and start from a new beginning!" At some point, the old woman appeared silently in the room.
"Life is just a few dozen years, and it's gone by in a blink of an eye. When you look back when you're old and find that there's nothing worth remembering, that's a sad thing." The old woman continued
"Every time I see you awake in a dream these days, I feel tears flowing down my face. I guess a lot of things should have happened to you. If you can trust me, the old lady, just tell me."
Zhang Hao told the old woman all the things that happened in Tiandi City and during this period. After hearing this, the old woman couldn't help but sighed, "When will the revenge be repaid? I advise you to let go of your hatred and start over again."
"If you can't let go of your hatred, you can only live in the past with a heavy burden forever. What fun will life be? Our ancestors were tired of the intrigues of the world and lived in seclusion in this mountain. It has been tens of thousands of years since then."
"Ten thousand years?" Zhang Hao said in shock
"Yes, it's been tens of thousands of years." The old woman nodded and said
