Chapter 369
Chapter 369
Ren Xiaoyao pondered in his heart.
"Even if I have to search the entire Tiandu City, I will find that woman!" Ren Xiaoyao muttered to himself, and then stepped into the castle.
When Ren Xiaoyao climbed up to the castle gate, a strong smell of blood hit his nose.
Ren Xiaoyao frowned, then walked up the stairs and headed into the castle.
The layout inside the castle is simple and grand, yet solemn.
There were patrolling soldiers everywhere in the castle. Ren Xiaoyao didn't dare to ask rashly, so he could only observe quietly, hoping to find clues.
Just like that, Ren Xiaoyao hid aside and watched.
He found that there were two courtyards on the east and west sides of the castle.
Ren Xiaoyao observed carefully and found that the buildings in the courtyard were no different from other courtyards, except for a large mansion built in the middle. This mansion was a courtyard prepared for distinguished guests.
Ren Xiaoyao guessed that these distinguished guests should be people under Hong An's power. They all lived in this mansion, where there were countless sandstorms. Once trapped in it, even if the warriors were at a high level, it would be difficult to come out alive.
Ren Xiaoyao's goal was to find Ren Hong, his parents, and his siblings. He knew that these people would definitely cause trouble for the Ren family after he left. In this case, it would be better for him to take the initiative.
After walking for several days, he finally arrived at a small town.
There are quite a few shops in the town, and business is booming.
Just as Ren Xiaoyao was about to enter the town, he suddenly felt something unusual in his body, as if something was trying to break free.
Ren Xiaoyao lowered his head and checked his body.
"Hey, what's going on!" Ren Xiaoyao was confused and puzzled.
There seemed to be a strange energy fluctuation in Ren Xiaoyao's body, moving slowly. He felt that the energy fluctuation was getting closer and closer, and as the energy fluctuation gradually increased, Ren Xiaoyao's body became hotter and hotter, and breathing became more and more difficult.
Ren Xiaoyao quickly used his internal energy to resist.
"Boom"
The sound of thunder spread throughout the town.
"Boom!"
Another bolt of lightning struck.
Ren Xiaoyao's figure was struck and flew up, then fell heavily to the ground.
"Cough cough!" Ren Xiaoyao endured the pain, climbed up with difficulty, shook a few times, and stood up again.
Ren Xiaoyao's body was covered in black and gray.
"Damn it! There seems to be something wrong with my body!" A trace of solemnity appeared on Ren Xiaoyao's face.
Ren Xiaoyao knew that this desert was called "Yellow Spring Road" and no one dared to go there. The legend of Yellow Spring Road had been passed down for hundreds of years. Because of its bad reputation, it was sealed and no one dared to go there.
Ren Xiaoyao left Tiandu City and came to the Yellow Springs Road.
There were endless sand dunes on both sides of Huangquan Road. Ren Xiaoyao shuttled between the dunes, looking for the clues his parents left for him.
Suddenly, Ren Xiaoyao heard a soft humming. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a dark figure sitting on the ground in the distance, playing the piano and singing.
Ren Xiaoyao carefully identified the person and confirmed that this was the one he was looking for.
Ren Xiaoyao walked closer and heard the man's singing clearly, it was actually "In a Dream"!
A bitter smile appeared on Ren Xiaoyao's lips. Meng Zhongge, is this the reason why his parents left home?
"Girl!" Ren Xiaoyao shouted.
The woman turned around and revealed a beautiful face. She had a pair of charming peach blossom eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. Many people would be lost in such eyes and sink into depravity without realizing it.
But to Ren Xiaoyao, these eyes only made him feel disgusted and nauseous!
"I knew I would run into you. We are destined to meet each other." Ren Xiaoyao said with a smile, "May I know your name, young lady?"
Ren Xiaoyao saw that the other party ignored him, so he could only talk to himself: "The girl should not have married yet. That is where his parents live. Ren Xiaoyao had been there several times and was quite familiar with the desert. He knew that there was a lake called Shahe in the desert, where the water vapor was very strong.
Ren Xiaoyao walked south along the desert. He wanted to find the old man who saved them and ask him for clues about his parents.
Ren Xiaoyao left footprints along the way, hoping to find some clues.
......
One day later, Ren Xiaoyao came to the Sha River.
He stood by the river bank, quietly watching the sparkling water. This water is a unique source of water in this world, not only can it be drunk, but it can also cleanse the soul.
Behind Ren Xiaoyao, not far away, there was a group of people wearing black cloaks lurking quietly. Each of them had their faces covered, revealing only a pair of sinister and cunning eyes, staring at Ren Xiaoyao's every move.
Ren Xiaoyao felt the gazes behind him and turned around abruptly, his eyes meeting those of the cloaked men. They all lowered their heads, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.
Ren Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows and sneered.
He had already noticed that someone was peeping at him from behind, but he pretended not to know.
Since these people dared to follow him, they must not be ordinary characters. Ren Xiaoyao didn't want to cause trouble, so he didn't take action, but just observed them secretly.
"Who sent these people?" Ren Xiaoyao thought to himself. Although he was a little confused, his goal was the western part of the Huangsha Ancient Country.
Ren Xiaoyao walked in the desert for thirty days.
During this period, he encountered several waves of attacks from fierce beasts. Those fierce beasts were of low level and generally not very strong.
Ren Xiaoyao easily dealt with them. The bodies of these beasts were collected by Ren Xiaoyao and then used to refine pills.
A month later, Ren Xiaoyao came to the sand dunes at the border of the ancient Huangsha Kingdom and stopped.
There is a small town in the northwest of the ancient Huangsha Kingdom. The name of the town is Shazhen.
Although this sand town is not prosperous, there are quite a few people living here.
Ren Xiaoyao plans to go to Sha Town to find out some information to see if there is any chance to find his parents.
Ren Xiaoyao took a few steps and suddenly felt dizzy. He quickly closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing.
Ren Xiaoyao's soul power has reached the peak of Condensation, and is not far from Condensation. However, he has been hiding his cultivation because he doesn't want to attract attention. Because he is afraid of attracting Hong An, which would be too dangerous.
After Ren Xiaoyao adjusted his breathing, he walked into Sha Town. In Sha Town, many people were setting up stalls to sell things.
After Ren Xiaoyao bought a few pieces of clothes on the street and changed into them, he walked towards the inn.
"Boss, let's settle the bill!" Ren Xiaoyao said, sitting at the table.
After the boss took the money and handed it to Ren Xiaoyao, he saw the scars on Ren Xiaoyao's hands and was immediately shocked: "Sir, you are injured, is it serious?", desolate and lonely.
Ren Xiaoyao didn't know where to go.
Suddenly, he thought of the group of people he met in Xinjiang before.
That group of people also seemed to be heading north.
Could it be that......
When Ren Xiaoyao thought of this, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Is there anyone in that team who is your old friend?
Ren Xiaoyao has always wanted to find his friends.
Ren Xiaoyao quickened his pace and ran away.
Ren Xiaoyao ran all the way and finally arrived at his destination three days later.
"Ren Xiaoyao, we've been waiting for you for three days, and you're finally back." As Ren Xiaoyao approached the team, a middle-aged man came up to him and said.
"Master Wang! Why are you here?" Ren Xiaoyao asked in surprise.
"Haha, I'm here to help you collect your body, otherwise you would have been killed by Hong An's people." Master Wang said lightly.
"What? What nonsense are you talking about?" Ren Xiaoyao looked at Master Wang in surprise.
Master Wang smiled and said, "Why, you don't believe me? I was Hong An's subordinate at first, but later I defected to you. I'm telling the truth. You should go collect the bodies first, and then I'll explain it to you slowly."
"You..." Ren Xiaoyao pointed at Master Wang with an angry look on his face.
"Ren Xiaoyao, we are just following Hong An's instructions. If you want to blame someone, go find Hong An!" Master Wang said calmly. What Ren Xiaoyao wanted to find was the place where his father and mother lived.
Ren Xiaoyao left marks along the way and tracked northwards, hoping to find them. He believed that as long as he kept going north, he would meet them one day.
Time flies by.
Another half month has passed.
Ren Xiaoyao finally saw his goal, in a small village. This small village was relatively wealthy, and the villagers were simple and warm-hearted, and Ren Xiaoyao gradually established friendships with them.
"Sir, what are you doing?" A woman stopped Ren Xiaoyao.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "Aunt, I want to ask, is there a village called Qingyan Village nearby?"
"Qingyan Village?" The woman shook her head. "There is no Qingyan Village here. Sir, are you lost?"
"Ah?" Ren Xiaoyao was a little surprised, but then he was relieved. There must be Qingyan Village nearby, but it just didn't want to show up.
"I understand. Thank you, auntie." Ren Xiaoyao smiled and turned away.
The woman looked at Ren Xiao's receding figure and shook her head in confusion.
Why is this young man so strange? He asks about the village one moment and then goes to Qingyan Village the next. Could it be that this is the family he is looking for?
The woman looked in the direction where Ren Xiaoyao left, and then looked inside the village. The people in this village were very kind, and the dust was rolling.
Ren Xiaoyao walked for a few days but still didn't know where to go.
Ren Xiaoyao's target was Hong An's territory, but he had no idea where it was. He only knew that Hong An's territory was very vast, and it was simply a pipe dream for him to find Hong An's lair!
If Ren Xiaoyao wants to seek revenge on Hong An, he must find his lair before he has a chance to get revenge.
Ren Xiaoyao thought as he walked towards the distance.
After walking for several days, Ren Xiaoyao still found nothing. He became more and more irritated, and he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, as if it was foreshadowing something, which made him feel very uneasy.
This uneasiness made him slow down more and more, and he even lost his way without realizing it.
Ren Xiaoyao had a bad feeling in his heart. Was his choice wrong? If it was wrong, what should he do?
Ren Xiaoyao stopped on a sand dune. This place was about ten miles away from Hong An's territory.
Ten miles may not mean anything to ordinary people, but for those who practice martial arts, the area within ten miles is almost their range of activities.
Ren Xiaoyao stood on the sand dune, looking quietly ahead.
In front of him stood a lonely tall tower at the end of his sight. This tower was the thing he hated and loathed the most in his life.
"Hong An, just wait for me! I will make you die a miserable death!" Ren Xiaoyao said fiercely. There was an ancient city called Beifeng City. This ancient city was used exclusively by the royal family of Tiannan. It was inhabited by the dignitaries, princes and ministers of Tiannan, as well as wealthy businessmen and local tyrants from all over the country.
Ren Xiaoyao walked to the outside of Beifeng City and stopped.
The moat outside this ancient city was completely blocked by tall trees, leaving only a thin gap. Ren Xiaoyao looked at it for a while, and suddenly an idea came to him.
