Since Liu Lan came to Chu Tingyu's residence a few years ago, there have been many servants in the courtyard, most of them are fishermen's families and women. On this brightly lit New Year's Eve night, the courtyard was bustling with activity. The servants came from the kitchen to

One after another delicious food was brought out, and the large table in the front hall was almost full of wine and food. Liu Lan, Chu Tingyu, Wen Tanping, Wen Aai, Qiu Wangchuan, Ye Haixi, Fan Zixiu, seven people gathered around the table

Sitting there, drinking wine and drinking wine, changing cups and cups, the joy of the festival diluted the depression in everyone's hearts, and everyone was enjoying this hard-won reunion and peace.

Wen Aiai kept picking up food for Ye Haixi, and she kept shouting "Sister Haixi, Sister Haixi". Ye Haixi had not had much companionship since she was a child, but suddenly she had a female companion of the same age, and she felt very friendly, but she had already

She has developed a relatively withdrawn character, and of course she still can't let go. She just chats quietly with Ai Ai, looking at Qiu Wangchuan from time to time, and after making eye contact, she quickly smiles and ducks her head.

Ai Ai was happy, but sad. She didn't know why she felt this way, but Liu Lan and Chu Tingyu seemed to see everything clearly.

The wind picked up again at night, and the red lanterns carried on the tall bamboo poles swayed in the wind. Large flakes of snow fell down, and soon they accumulated a thick layer on the ground.

Qiu Wangchuan took advantage of the wine and walked to the center of the courtyard. His energy circulated through the meridians throughout his body and secretly used the Wind Control Technique. He saw several whirlwinds rising from the ground, rolling up the snow on the ground and blowing it to both sides. In the blink of an eye, the courtyard was blown away.

It was clean, and there were high snowdrifts piled up on both sides.

Everyone knows that Qiu Wangchuan has learned the art of controlling the wind and has shown great power when he was in the imperial city. However, now Qiu Wangchuan has mastered the art of controlling the wind so well that wherever the wind passes, he only blows the snow together.

Not a single plant or tree in the courtyard was touched, and everyone cheered in unison!

Tanping jumped to the courtyard and said:

"Monkey, please take a seat while I play!"

Qiu Wangchuan returned to the hall and sat down. He saw Tan Ping pull out the sword Wan Yue from his waist and start dancing. In an instant, the snow in the courtyard started to rise one after another. The strong wind was like residual clouds, circling in the air. Not a single snowflake could reach it.

Fall to the ground!

After a sword show, the snowflakes slowly fell to the ground, and Fan Zi practiced:

"Excellent sword skills! It's just that the second young master just finished cleaning the yard, and the first young master made a mess again!"

Everyone laughed, Qiu Wangchuan said to Ye Haixi:

"Haixi, I have to trouble you to do the cleaning again."

Ye Haixi smiled and nodded, and walked to the courtyard gracefully. Everyone knew that this girl was already a master of the Jun Realm, but they had never seen her take action. They all looked at Ye Haixi to see how she would deal with the heavy snow.

She took a deep breath, clasped her palms together in front of her chest, and slowly pushed left and right. Suddenly, she lifted her palms up, and the snowflakes in the sky froze in the air!

Not only that, the snow on the ground also floated up one after another, as if every snowflake was caught by invisible hands. Snowflakes have been falling since ancient times. Who has ever seen snow soaring into the sky? Everyone could not help but be stunned!

In the heavy snow, Ye Haixi walked gently, not a single snowflake fell. When she put down her palms, the snow fell one after another and piled up on both sides of the courtyard.

Everyone clapped and cheered! Ye Haixi's pretty face turned slightly red, and she turned around and walked back to the hall.

Ai Ai asked:

"Sister Haixi, what kind of skill is this? It's very beautiful!"

Ye Haixi said:

"This is the Sea Dividing Technique that I have learned since I was a child. It can control water, snow, and ice. I have only learned the second level now. Your second brother has already reached the tenth level of Dzogchen, and he still wants me to go out and show my shame."

Qiu Wangchuan just said nothing, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

When he mentioned the art of dividing the sea, the shadow of the demon Xiang Yuan reappeared in his heart, making him feel depressed.

Ye Haixi also felt the depression in his heart, and quickly changed the topic and asked about the exquisite dishes on the table.

Everyone continued to drink, Liu Lan called Qiu Wangchuan into the side hall, closed the door, and asked in a low voice:

"Son, why are you so worried?"

The mother-in-law saw her son's thoughts clearly. Qiu Wangchuan thought about it and did not hide anything. He told the whole story about Chu Lingyu's death on the top of Tianfu Mountain. Liu Lan really did not expect that Qiu Wangchuan would come back to reunite.

He endured great grief in his heart, his mother died in death, and his enemies were at ease. How could he not have anything to worry about?

Qiu Wangchuan Road:

"Mom, I've been thinking about it for a long time. I can't tell my aunt about this matter. They have been together since childhood and they love each other as sisters. If she finds out about this matter, she may not be able to wait even a day and she will fight to the death. I

I'm afraid that she won't be able to bear the news, so I'd better celebrate it peacefully. If I can keep this matter from her, I won't tell her anything for the rest of my life. Also, that's all you know, don't tell Ai Ai and Tan Ping either.

, if I want them to help, I will talk to them myself."

Liu Lan nodded, stroked Qiu Wangchuan's head, and said distressedly:

"It's hard on my son...then what are your plans?"

Qiu Wangchuan Road:

"In a few days, I still have to go out. If I don't enter, how can I take revenge? I want to go out to find opportunities and a place to practice. Hai Xi will definitely go with me. I don't know what Tan Ping and Ai Ai are thinking.

I will ask them privately in two days."

Liu Lan said:

"You and Ai Ai have been guarding your father's grave for three years. I heard that Ai Ai came back and told me that you didn't even care about practicing in the past three years. You just looked at your father's tombstone every day, or wiped it carefully, and did

As an adopted son, my mother is very satisfied to see you like this. Your father and I have not loved you in vain. In our hearts, you are no different from our biological sons. After your father left, I have never dared to visit his cemetery.

Go, my mother's heart was hurt too much and she can no longer withstand the storm. Over the years, I have also been thinking, whatever hatred or resentment, it will be over when it is over. What he fought to protect was your safety. He did a good job.

, I just hope that you won’t be reckless and let down his hard work. Mom, I just hope that you are all safe, that’s enough.”

Liu Lan sighed and continued:

"But I never imagined that such a change would happen in Jingyang. The evil thief who usurped the throne, killed the king, and killed your mother. I also have the impression that when Emperor Qi Han was in power, Yun Qing and the Xiang Yuan you talked about

, they are all his...good brothers."

Liu Lan shook her head when she said the word "good brother". If the world were full of such good brothers, it would be even better than purgatory.

Qiu Wangchuan Road:

"Mom, please wait with peace of mind. I can't let go of this hatred and will not act recklessly. But one day, I will bring you to my father's tomb and let you see with your own eyes that I will sacrifice Manchuan's head on the spot. Otherwise,

, I will feel guilty and uneasy for the rest of my life.”

Liu Lan said:

"Whatever you think about, just do it. You don't have to worry about me. I get along very well with your aunt Tingyu. If she hadn't been with me these years and often relieved me of my worries, my mother might have lost her mind."

I'm going crazy. I only have one request, don't be reckless, and come back safely."

Qiu Wangchuan raised his head and looked at Liu Lan. This person did not give her life, but supported herself and regarded herself as a life. She was grateful but could not say it out loud. From her eyes, Qiu Wangchuan knew that she wanted to

She understands everything.

At midnight, which is the first day of the first lunar month of the new year, the banquet was removed, and several juniors paid New Year greetings to their elders. Liu Lan and Chu Tingyu sealed each of them a big red envelope, and the servants in the courtyard also gave them rewards.

As soon as it was distributed, everyone dispersed happily and returned to their rooms. Qiu Wangchuan was just about to practice when he heard a voice calling softly from outside the door:

"Monkey, are you asleep?"

"big cow?"

Qiu Wangchuan hurriedly opened the door, and Tan Ping walked in, turned around and closed the door, turned around, and said to Qiu Wangchuan mysteriously:

"What do you think I brought you?"

Qiu Wangchuan shook his head, Tan Ping smiled slightly, took out his hand from behind, and opened his palm, revealing a red egg.

Seeing this egg, Qiu Wangchuan's thoughts immediately returned to his childhood. A pure white bird in the north is called the snow parrot. Its eggs are extremely fresh and tender. However, because the snow parrot often builds its nest on the cliffs, it

The eggs are also very rare. People in the village have a saying that they have to give up three days of food in exchange for a snow parrot egg, which shows how precious it is. When they were young, they went hunting in the mountains by the Wen River, and there were big and ferocious beasts.

, but these snow parrot eggs are rare. Sometimes I encounter them by chance and bring back a few. Tanping always saves his share and secretly shares them with his younger brothers and sisters.

Qiu Wangchuan looked at Wen Tanping's drunken face and felt warm in his heart. His eldest brother was still thinking about him as he did when he was a child. Chu Tingyu arranged a separate room for everyone to rest and practice, so as not to disturb each other.

, Otherwise, how could Wentanping and Qiu Wangchuan be willing to sleep in separate rooms?

"Where did you get it?"

"When I went down to Chigong Ridge, I vaguely saw a nest on the cliff. I climbed up and dug it out. Eat it. I've sent Ai Ai's over there, and I have some myself."

Qiu Wangchuan took it and put it into his arms. Tanping pulled him to sit on the couch and asked quietly:

"How? When are you going to get married?"

Qiu Wangchuan's unexpected question made Qiu Wangchuan blush and stutter a little when speaking.

"What kind of marriage are you going to have? Don't talk nonsense!"

Tan Ping held back his laughter and said:

"Oh, no getting married? What are you going to do with a girl by your side if you don't get married? Aren't you afraid of what others will say, and the girl isn't afraid either?"

Qiu Wangchuan was stunned, thinking that he had not thought it through well. He and Ye Haixi were indeed lovers, but he was burdened with a blood feud, especially when his biological mother had just been murdered and passed away.

Getting married? Such unfilial behavior must never be done!

Qiu Wangchuan originally wanted to tease him a few words, saying that he was not married yet, so how could he dare to think about it, but when he thought of Chu Lingyu, his heart became heavy. Wen Tanping saw that he looked different and asked him what happened.

, Qiu Wangchuan just spoke vaguely and changed the topic.

The two of them sat on the couch together and talked until dawn. Qiu Wangchuan deliberately did not tell some details about Tianfu Mountain. He was afraid that Tanping would risk his life for him if he told them, so he should wait until he entered the realm of transformation and had the ability to take revenge.

When the time comes, it would be safer to invite him and Ai Ai to be helpers.

In the early morning, the servants started to get busy. The two of them were still chatting. They heard the crackling sound outside. When they went out, they saw that Fan Zixiu had lit a long string of firecrackers to welcome the first day of the new year.
