At this moment, Bai Yunchu's gentleness completely faded away, his brows were tightly knitted together, he lifted Ning Ye and pressed her against the wall, while his fingers locked her neck!

Ning Ye wanted to resist, but Bai Yunchu's cultivation was stronger than expected, even not much weaker than the bad old man.

His sleeve slipped down slightly because of the throat-locking action, and a red rope on his white arm was particularly eye-catching, and there was indeed a golden bell on it.

Bai Yunchu noticed that she was looking at her bell, so he pulled off her gourd and held it in front of her. "Answer me, where did you get this silver bell?"

Although he was asking, he had the intention of strangling her to death immediately if he heard even a single unpleasant word.

Ning Ye said: "Bai Jingze gave it to me."

Bai Yunchu's eyes narrowed violently, and with a trembling voice, he muttered to himself, "Jingze... he didn't... what's your relationship?"

Ning Ye grabbed his arm and forcefully removed his hand from her neck. She rubbed her throat, which was pinched sore, and snatched back her gourd. "Why don't you answer first? What is your relationship with him?"

Bai Yunchu indulged her insolence, but his tone was still very cold, "Little girl, you talk to me like this, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?!"

"If you kill me, where are you going to find Xiao Aze?"

Ning Ye shook the gourd with the silver bell tied to it, and hung it back around her waist in front of him.

"You brought me back to the medicine house because you saw me carrying this bell, right? And you asked Gu Mingze to interrogate me because you wanted to know where I came from. You want to know Jingze's whereabouts, right? But you are not sure if I am a good person, so you dare not ask directly for fear of alerting the enemy."

"You care so much about Bai Jingze, and you're from Medicine King Valley. Let me guess, are you relatives? Are you his brother?"

With just a few words, Bai Yunchu was completely exposed.

Bai Yunchu was very depressed, "Are you a good person or not?"

Ning Ye spread his hands, "Of course I'm a good person! I said it from the beginning, I just came to ask you to come out and detoxify my brother."

……

A few days later.

A carriage arrived at the Tianning Sect branch.

The appearance of the branch clan has changed a lot. The fence and the side rooms have been built, and the carpenters have returned to the town.

The construction debris was cleaned up very cleanly.

"arrive!"

Ning Ye jumped off the front of the car first and strode inside.

Gu Mingze left his master who slowly got out of the car and ran after her.

"You're back, Sister Ye!"

"Sister Ye Zi!"

"..."

Several little kids came over with surprise on their faces. Little Sweetheart and Wen Ying even threw themselves into Ning Ye's arms from the left and right.

Wentang also wanted to squeeze in, but was pushed away by his good sister.

Jiang Hu was holding little Wuming's hand, smiling happily.

Luo Yuzhu was as reserved as ever, standing at the back, but with an obvious smile on her face.

Ning Ye smiled and said, "Yes, I'm back!"

Gu Mingze's eyes lit up when he saw so many children younger than him. "Are these the brothers and sisters you mentioned on the way?"

"Let me introduce you to Yuzhu, Little Sweetheart, Wentang and Wenying, Xiaohu, and Xiaowuming." Ning Ye pointed out the children from oldest to youngest, and then introduced Gu Mingze to the little ones, "He is Gu Mingze, about the same age as Jingze. You can call him Brother Xiaoze."

"There's a 'Ze' in his name, too." Little Sweetheart was surprised and observed him with her big eyes, "But he's not as good-looking as Brother Jingze."

Ning Ye rubbed Yue Tianxin's little head and said, "Sweetheart, how can you say such things in front of the guests?"

When Luo Yuzhu heard the word "guest", a tense nerve in her body suddenly relaxed.

It turned out to be a guest. I thought Sister Ye had picked up another child.

He began to show friendliness towards Gu Mingze.

"Oh!" Yue Tianxin covered her mouth with her hands and said to Gu Mingze with a smile: "Sorry, actually, Brother Xiaoze, you are also good-looking."

Gu Ming, on the other hand, was the cute type, with a bit of baby fat on his chin. He was quite approachable, and his smile made people feel warm and at peace. "Thank you, sweetheart. This is a gift that Master asked me to bring you."

In fact, he chose the gift himself, but the master paid for it in the end.

But since he is a good disciple, the credit will temporarily go to his master!

A certain · outside the door · forgotten · Master: ...

"Where's Jingze?"

Ning Ye looked around and saw only the six of them and the sword cultivator Zheng Laosi in the room.

Zheng Laosi was teaching them basic sword skills. As soon as Ning Ye came back, all the children dropped their wooden swords and ran away.

The fourth child sighed, teaching is really tiring!

But he didn't say.

Wen Ying said in a soft voice, "Brother Jingze went out to chop firewood early in the morning."

"Is there no firewood left at home?" Ning Ye had left some firewood before leaving, but he didn't expect it to be used up so quickly. "Then you take Mingze to familiarize himself with the place first. I'll go find Jingze. Someone wants to see him."

After they went out, Bai Yunchu stopped her and said, "Tell me the direction, I'll go find it."

Ning Ye thought that he missed his brother very much, so he pointed out the location to him.

……

This place is desolate.

It should be said that since entering Qiyuan Town, all I see is desolation.

There are no mountains near the branch sect, so if you want to chop firewood, you have to walk to Jiguana Mountain, which is quite far away.

Bai Yunchu didn't realize that he was actually using his cultivation to travel faster, but when he arrived at the foot of Jiguana Mountain, he suddenly didn't dare to go up.

There are not many trees on the mountain, and there are only a few ugly pines with twisted branches growing sparsely in the cracks of the rocks.

He could see at the foot of the mountain, halfway up the mountain, a child in gray cloth clothes, holding an axe in both hands, chopping at the branches of the ugly pine tree again and again.

Ta-ta-ta!

Chou Song was very hard, and he used a lot of strength every time. The hair on his forehead was already wet with sweat.

After he finally cut down the ugly pine tree, he sat on the ground and continued to chop the ugly pine into pieces of firewood.

Perhaps because his hands were blistered and painful, he kept changing hands to hold the handle from below.

Whenever he had almost finished chopping the grass, he would tie it into a bundle with a rope and stack it aside.

There was already a tall pile beside him.

He was half the height of a man, but he was still chopping wood.

Bai Yunchu's heart tightened.

When his parents were still alive, when Medicine King Valley was still there, and before he left, his younger brother had lived a life of luxury and was raised in pampering by the entire Medicine King Valley.

But now, he has shed his noble airs and is shouldering the weight of a family like a little adult, taking care of a bunch of younger brothers and sisters.

Bai Yunchu wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand and walked up the mountain step by step.

Bai Jingze suddenly heard footsteps approaching and turned his head warily.

See clearly who is coming.

With a clang, the axe slipped from his hand and fell to the stone ground.

Eyes facing each other.

Bai Yunchu's eyes turned red and he spoke,

"Xiao Aze, brother is here."
