Light Barrier

Chapter 380

When he walked out of the small courtyard and saw the little girl lying behind the courtyard door, Baixiu felt a little complicated.

He thought it would be a good thing for him to return to Huaiyin.

Yu Shu died.

There is always something you can do...

But when he really saw the vibrant little courtyard, he realized that he actually had nothing to do.

Yu Shu's family is living well.

In other words... there is no better way.

Bai Xiaochi stood side by side with him, walking among the shades of trees and sunshine in Huaiyin Town.

The head of the Bai family raised his head slightly, feeling the dim light falling between the forest leaves, and said softly: "Human beings are always small in the face of fate... Some things cannot be changed, and it is useless no matter how powerful the extraordinary power is."

Bai Xiu was silent for a while.

"He will not come back again." Baixiu said: "That yard, that mother and daughter, sooner or later will know the truth..."

"The truth is... there is destined to be parting in this world, not just for them, but also for you and me. Thousands of people gather together, tens of millions of people part ways, millions of people depend on each other for life and death. In the end, the stories of all people in the world are tragedies. Bai Xiaochi said calmly: "You are right. News of Yu Shu's death will reach that small courtyard sooner or later, but by that time, they may find the next hope. From the moment Yu Shu awakens his ability, fate will It’s already been doomed, isn’t the current ending good enough?”

Baixiu was speechless.

Yes.

This is already...the best ending.

"From life to death, everyone is like a mayfly." Bai Xiaochi said: "Hope is the motivation for a mayfly to live..."

Bai Xiu paused.

He rushed back to Huaiyin from Nagano. His original intention was to see how the relatives of Qu Long, the man who sacrificed his life, were living now... This was a very small matter, not worth alarming or bothering other people.

So he rejected the family owner's previous kindness to go with him.

But... the head of the family still came.

And I did myself a very important favor.

If it weren't for the timely appearance of the owner in the small courtyard, Bai Xiu might have said something... that he would regret.

After brewing for a long time, Baixiu said in a very soft voice: "...Thank you."

"It's rare to hear this word from your mouth."

Bai Xiaochi smiled.

"I..." Bai Xiu hesitated and sighed softly: "Are you usually very cold?"

"No...not indifference."

Bai Xiaochi shook his head and said: "I know you are not that kind of person. If someone helps you, you will definitely say thank you... But you are too powerful and can handle everything by yourself. Very few people have the opportunity to give you a chance. Say thank you.”

Bai Xiu was slightly startled.

That's really the case...

Many people have expressed their gratitude to him over the years.

The Judgment Office, the Prison, the Command Post, the Five Families... No matter where he went or what he did, he seemed to be able to help some people and solve their troubles.

And vice versa.

I say thank you very rarely.

"You came to Huaiyin this time..."

"Don't get me wrong, it's not just because of you." Bai Xiaochi said with a smile: "I like that little girl from Yu Shu's family. I specially found someone to pick that sunflower from the south. This time I came to Huaiyin just to see it. she."

Okay...that sounds reasonable.

Bai Xiu looked at the head of the family with a complicated expression, and felt that Bai Xiaochi was different from what he remembered.

On weekdays, when I was in Nagano, I mostly lived alone to practice, keeping quiet and solemn. I would only see the head of the family when dealing with important matters.

In my impression... Bai Xiu rarely saw the head of the family look like this.

And came to this small courtyard.

In other words... After arriving in Huaiyin, Bai Xiaochi took off that serious mask.

"Of course... what I just said is not just because of you." Bai Xiaochi first hesitated and then said: "Part of the reason why I came to Huaiyin is because of you."

In the tundra, Bai Xiu had just experienced an assassination.

The Bai family cannot accept the second or third game...

When Bai Xiu heard this, he basically understood what the head of the family meant.

"Next, let's go to the tundra ice lake." Bai Xiaochi said calmly, "Bring Yu Shu's body back to Nagano. In addition... I also want to see the assassination scene."

...

...

It only took one day to get from Huaiyin to Tundra.

In the cold wind, two figures stood on the ice lake.

Bai Xiaochi looked at the endless white lake in the distance and asked softly: "Is this the assassination site?"

This glacial lake is huge.

Covered with snow.

Visibility is extremely low.

If the blood stain verification fails...

So it can only show that the person who set up the chess game was really thoughtful. This is by no means a coincidence... but that he had already prepared countermeasures for all this.

Perhaps, he not only understands Bai Xiu's whereabouts, but also understands Bai Xiaochi's abilities.

"I know what you want to say, but... this is just a guess, a guess without evidence." Bai Xiaochi sighed softly and said: "You have to know that there are many people in the Presbyterian Church. At this juncture... if the arrest is wrong If you get one, things will get really bad.”

Baixiu lowered his eyes.

He stopped talking about this topic and continued walking towards the far side of the ice lake.

He walked under a huge boulder. This boulder penetrated the ice of the ice lake and the water surface under the ice. A snow-white ice cocoon was condensed beside the boulder, and a pale corpse was curled up in the big cocoon.

"I buried Yu Shu here."

Baixiu said softly: "I want to bury him in Qingzhong... there is a good place there. One day, his extraordinary source of energy will arrive in Nagano and find true peace."

A wisp of thunder power shook out along the ice.

Bai Xiu lowered his head silently. He watched as the ice lake was shattered into a gap. The silent undercurrent suddenly surged. The ice cocoon floated up little by little, and the curled up Qu Long was frozen in the ice cocoon.

Bai Xiaochi said softly: "Regarding the matter of the Bai clan... I can go and negotiate with the Council of Elders... maybe I can give you a satisfactory answer."

"No, there's no need to force it."

Bai Xiu looked at the pale face in the ice cocoon and shook his head, "Besides... he probably wouldn't like a place like the Zongtang. It would be better to be buried in the Qing Tomb."

Bai Xiaochi was silent for a long time.

He looked at the stubborn young man and sighed again.

"The registration for Nagano's rookie battle has ended. You didn't deliberately avoid it because of this assassination, right?"

Baixiu raised his head.

He didn't say anything, he just sat on the big rock and waited quietly for the ice cocoon to thaw.

"If you want to use this method to protest to the Bai family, there is actually no need." Bai Xiaochi said seriously: "If you win the leader of the rookie battle and understand the Dream of Fire... the prejudice of the Presbyterian Church will be much smaller. .”

The reason for this assassination recorded in the file was that Bai Buzheng was dissatisfied with Bai Xiu and was jealous.

In fact...it's just for the name of the so-called "head of the family".

There is white sinking first, and then there are white sleeves.

This is a blessing.

But in a big family, taking sides and betting has become an undercurrent... No matter how evil Bai Xiu's talent is, there are many people who are worried that in the future, this young man from the Jiangbei branch will usurp the heir apparent's power.

"I regard Bai Chen as my elder brother, and I have no intention of competing for power. Since I entered Nagano, I have done everything with a clear conscience. Why do I need to explain to them?" Bai Xiu looked at the head of the family and said calmly: "As for the newcomers War, the dream of fire... If I want it, I can catch it. Why should I hide from all this, why should I avoid it? "

Baixiu knew what the head of the family really wanted to say.

He went to Qing Tomb.

And inside Kiyotsuka... there is a person who is being stared at by many people in Nagano.

Gu Shen.

Everyone in Nagano is looking forward to a fight between themselves and Gu Shen... preferably in a newcomer battle, and I think the head of the family is one of them.

"I left Huaiyin and came back to the tundra, not because I wanted to avoid the war..." Baixiu lowered his eyebrows and said slowly, "I just think this matter is more important than participating in the rookie battle."

"The Elders have great opinions on your choice. They think there will be a lot of trouble next year..."

Bai Xiaochi stopped and said meaningfully: "But, I understand you and support you."

Trouble next year.

"Thanks......"

Bai Xiu smiled self-deprecatingly, and he confessed: "This should be the third time I say thank you when I come back from the tundra."

the third time?

Bai Xiaochi was slightly startled... once in Huaiyin and once in the tundra. Both times, he said it to himself.

Sitting on the boulder of the ice lake, Baixiu said seriously every word: "After returning to Nagano, I disappeared for a day."

"Then I found out Bai Buzheng during the clan meeting."

"Then...I found out Qu Long's name, life experience, and origin."

"Actually, I didn't do any of this... someone helped me, and he also helped me pick a good location in Qingzuka."

Speaking of which... Bai Xiaochi had already vaguely guessed something.

In one day, only the master who was proficient in divination in Nagano could solve the dilemma and directly uncover the identity of the "planner".

And that master had just accepted a disciple.

Seeing each other in the clear tomb, peace and quiet.

Things that everyone in Nagano couldn't understand, now seem to be reasonable.

Even Bai Xiaochi, a bystander, had to sigh at the wonder of fate.

"That person is Gu Shen."

Bai Xiu said seriously: "Gu Shen and I hit it off immediately. The investigation of the Tundra Assassination went very smoothly... I am very grateful to him."

This is added at 12:40.

Because it is a very important transition plot recently, each chapter takes a long time... I also revise and revise it myself, first of all to ensure the quality.

The workload of Chapter 2 today is very heavy, and I don’t expect it to be completed tonight.

Even if you start writing it when you get up early tomorrow morning, it will not be sent out until close to noon.

The author specially added this paragraph to say that he hopes that at this point in time, readers who have caught up to this update will not wait any longer when they see this paragraph.
