Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

Chapter 508: The Lone Shadow Does Not Return Home

The red clouds are as clear as the red mulberry fields, and the crows are crying a few times!

In the nameless tavern outside Sangzhi Town, although the aroma of wine is intoxicating, the atmosphere seems very tense!

On the mulberry tree next to the tavern, a few crows seemed to be crying and complaining, their cries were sad and noisy!

"Xie brother, have you thought about it?"

Inside the circle surrounded by the Shadow Hall people, there were two people sitting at a table. One of them had one arm and a slightly fat face. There was a scary scar on his face that looked like a piece of flesh had been dug out. He was drinking wine at the moment, wine from the No Name Tavern!

At the other end of the table was a person from the Shadow Hall, with only a pair of eyes, the light was cold and gloomy!

The one-armed man touched his face and said to himself:

"You can change your appearance, but you can't change your fate. You can dig out the years, but you can't dig out the past!"

"Brother Xie, you have really been away from Shadow Hall for too long. Away from the days of fighting and killing, your heart has become indecisive! The feng shui of Sangzhi Town is good for health! Your wine-making skills are becoming more and more sophisticated, the fragrance spreads ten miles away, and a pot of heartbreaking wine! The heartbreaking wine of the past has become a nameless wine, and the poisonous wine has become clear wine, but will the hand holding the butcher's knife also forget the feeling of killing?"

"I have already returned the hand holding the knife to the abbot. He promised to let me leave Shadow Hall!"

The one-armed man started drinking his wine again, perhaps worried that he would never be able to drink it again!

"Excuse me, how could anyone from the Shadow Hall leave? Demons can become Buddhas, but shadows cannot return home. This is the fate of every Shadow Hall member!"

"Home? Who would join the Shadow Hall if they already have a home? I thought the Shadow Hall could be a home, but... Alas! How can there be such a home in the world?"

The one-armed man is still drinking!

"Thank you, Brother Xie, Shadow Hall is our home, but everyone has a tombstone outside their home. From the day you and I entered Shadow Hall, our tombstones have been erected and our family graves have been built!"

"Master, are you asking me to go home? I have killed countless people for the Shadow Hall throughout my life, but I couldn't get my freedom back. Maybe what I should have exchanged for was that empty grave!"

"Thank you, brother, please!"

The one-armed man did not move. He drank the wine in his hand and threw the wine pot towards the small building in the courtyard. The huge amount of true energy that accompanied it directly blasted a space in the small building. There was actually a grave inside, and there was also a tombstone with the words:

"The Tomb of the Sinner Xie Cheng!"

Xie Cheng, the former head of the Sixth Hall of Shadow Hall! Thirteen years ago, he was seriously injured in a battle at Longshan Mountain, and his cultivation was completely lost, so he left Shadow Hall!

Xie Cheng knew that it was impossible for him to leave, but more than ten years had passed and he really had no contact with the Shadow Hall. He once thought that he had really left! But the reality was, how could it be possible?

Xie Cheng has become accustomed to the life of an ordinary person, and he enjoys it and feels comfortable. In order to be able to live this kind of life forever, he has been poisoning himself with wine for thirteen years in an effort to regain his former cultivation, just for this day!

Therefore, the wine from the nameless wine shop is a wine that can remove poison, so of course it tastes delicious!

Although Xie Cheng seemed to be living an ordinary life, he had been taking drugs for more than ten years in the basement of this nameless tavern, just to leave the Shadow Hall completely!

In the Nameless Tavern, Xie Cheng's actions stunned everyone in the Shadow Hall. The person sitting at the same table with him flew back and said sternly:

"You, when did you recover your cultivation?"

"Brother Zuo, I'm sorry, I don't want to go back. This is my home. Unfortunately, after today, I'm afraid this is no longer my home. Does it mean that if a person takes a wrong step and goes astray, he no longer deserves a home?"

The one-armed Xie Cheng picked up another jug ​​of wine and drank it all. When the jug fell to the ground, murderous aura followed. The powerful murderous aura first killed the crows on the branches of the Yunmulberry tree. The sound was so sad!

Murong Ruoxi, who was getting closer and closer, chose to leave and went to Sangzhi Town alone and silently. She was just an ordinary person!

Murong Ruoxi was still too naive. The people in the Wuming Tavern were all assassins from the Shadow Hall. They knew human nature too well. How could they be ordinary people when they could still walk around normally in such a murderous aura?

However, the people in the nameless tavern had no time to care about Murong Ruoxi!

Murong Ruoxi quickly entered Sangzhi Town. She was really nervous in her heart and blamed herself for having a vengeful heart. She was running for her life now and should focus on protecting herself!

Not long after Murong Ruoxi entered Sangzhi Town, she saw the leader of the Shadow Hall flying into the town in panic, covered in blood, with the one-armed Xie Cheng chasing him relentlessly. However, the one-armed Xie Cheng turned back and took a special look at Murong Ruoxi, and did not stop. He wanted to kill him to silence him, otherwise the people from the Shadow Hall would find him soon. The one-armed Xie Cheng should not have seen Murong Ruoxi's face clearly, because Murong Ruoxi's hair almost covered her face!

After the two men disappeared without a trace, Murong Ruoxi stopped, smiled, turned around and left Sangzhi Town again, and flew to the nameless tavern. She still needed a horse and money!

Murong Ruoxi was still wondering why the fight ended so quickly, but when she saw the tragic scene in the nameless tavern, she understood!

Those people from the Shadow Hall should have died of poisoning, but how could a cultivator be poisoned? Murong Ruoxi was puzzled, but she was not afraid. She turned over the bodies of the people from the Shadow Hall and found some money, but the horses were all dead!

Murong Ruoxi didn't know that what these people had were not poison, but a cruel and strange technique. This secret technique originated from the ancient Miao area south of Zhongzhou, and was as famous as the technique of bewitching witchcraft!

One-armed Xie Cheng is from the ancient Miao territory!

In the nameless tavern, Murong Ruoxi of course saw the grave and learned that the one-armed man was named Xie Cheng. After taking the money, she quickly left the nameless tavern. She was going to Sangzhi Town. She wanted to buy some clothes to cover her whereabouts!

Murong Ruoxi was very disappointed. There was no ready-made clothing store in Sangzhi Town, which really made her speechless. There were cloths of various colors everywhere, but no clothes for sale!

Murong Ruoxi left Sangzhi Town and headed east, still walking, but with wine in her hand. She really looked a bit like her master now!

Walking alone and drunk, the only thing missing is that his clothes are not beggar's!

As long as there is wine, Murong Ruoxi is happy! She can forget all the people and things, leaving only two people in her heart, one is her, and the other is the fool, that's enough!

But other troubles came! What man wouldn't have some bad thoughts when seeing a drunk girl traveling alone? Along the way, Murong Ruoxi didn't know how many men who wanted to tease her were beaten away!

So Murong Ruoxi wanted to rob a carriage and head east!

Murong Ruoxi was drinking wine and lying on a willow tree beside the road, waiting for a passing carriage!

After an unknown amount of time, a carriage finally arrived. Strangely, it didn't go very fast. Murong Ruoxi didn't care about it anymore. When the carriage passed under the willow tree, she jumped down and lay on the roof of the carriage!

Ordinary people would not be able to notice it, but the people in the carriage were not ordinary people, and neither was the coachman. However, neither of them said a word, just pretending nothing happened and continued to move forward!

Murong Ruoxi crossed her legs, drank wine, and looked at the sky, feeling relaxed and at ease! She suddenly realized that being alone seemed pretty good!

The carriage was moving very slowly, probably because it was taking care of Murong Ruoxi on the roof! In reality, the people in the carriage were reading and occasionally writing!

The warm sun and the wine were just right, and Murong Ruoxi fell asleep quickly!

I don’t know if it was because she was too drunk, or sleeping too deeply, or maybe she didn’t want to leave the arms of the fool in her dream, but Murong Ruoxi slept so soundly that she didn’t even notice the carriage had stopped!

The carriage stopped beside a small river. The river flowed slowly and the water was still, with some broken ice on both sides. The carriage was surrounded by dense forests, with red and dry fallen leaves and bare branches!

The person in the carriage was sitting on the grass next to him and painting, and the coachman was leaning against the tree next to him, looking at the painting quietly!

Under the warm winter sun, there are only two words to describe this place: quiet and beautiful!

Murong finally woke up from her dream and drunkenness. This heartless young lady stretched lazily and shouted naturally:

"Qian'er, I'm thirsty, pour me a cup of tea!"

After saying that, she turned over and rolled off the carriage!

"Ouch!"

Murong Ruoxi opened her eyes, she lay on the ground next to the carriage, and she said directly:

"Stinky Qian'er, when are you going to come find me? In my dream, that idiot bullied me, but you didn't care. Now that I'm not in the dream anymore, you don't care about me either!"

Murong Ruoxi got up depressed and turned to look at the person who was painting, but she found that the person in the painting was actually her!

The beauty is intoxicated, her eyes are full of affection, and her every frown and smile is like a dream beauty!

“Give me this painting!”

Murong Ruoxi was talking about the painting, but what she was thinking about was the idiot. She was going to give this painting to the idiot!
