Chapter 152: Stormy Weather
I don’t know why, but the moment Yang Sheng lifted the cloak, my heart suddenly began to beat very fast. I had an indescribable feeling of suspense, and I felt that under the cloak, there was an inevitable connection with the most important thing in my life!
What is the most important thing in my life now? Naturally, I want to find my master and share a happy family life with him…
I didn’t notice the man in the cloak at first. Why was that? The black cloak was pulled and flew up, like a banner, and my heart also flew. When the cloak fell, a figure appeared in front of us.
It was a strange face, weathered and haggard. The important thing was that his eyes were vacant, without any focus, and he stood there in a daze. The symptoms were like… I sighed with disappointment, but a thought still came to mind. The symptoms were like an incomplete soul.
But what is Yang Sheng showing us with such a person?
I hadn’t reacted yet, and I hadn’t had time to ask Yang Sheng anything when I heard a heart-wrenching sound behind me. It was a pure cry of venting, just a simple “ah” sound, mixed with a lot of emotions that I couldn’t explain.
I didn’t even turn around, and I knew that the voice was Xiao Chengqian’s.
“Chengqian, you…” I turned around and saw a face with bloodshot eyes and an agitated expression. At that moment, Xiao Chengqian ignored my question and just trembled all over, walking step by step towards that person.
Then he quickly walked past me, and then the faster and faster, I don’t know because of the excitement or because of something else, on this flat rock, he actually fell several times, and even the last time he fell, he was too lazy to get up, as if he was afraid of wasting time, he simply rolled over and crawled over.
What the hell was going on? My heart started beating again, ‘thump thump’… It was as if the only sound in the world was my heart beating. I thought of something, and looking at Xiao Chengqian, who looked like he was going crazy, I didn’t dare to ask him. I realized that in that moment I had lost all my courage.
I almost couldn’t stand up, but at this moment, a body leaned against me. It was Brother Chengxin. He didn’t mean to joke around, but said to me with a serious face, “Chengyi, I can’t stand up, lean on me for a moment.”
Chengxin’s mind is so quick, I’m afraid he thought of a possibility before me, and Chengzhen’s sobbing voice also sounded behind me. Girls are more difficult to control their emotions, and I’m afraid they’ve thought of something at this time.
As for Cheng Yuan, her reaction may have been slower. She asked Cheng Zhen, “Sister, why are you crying?” But when she said the last word, her voice also turned into a sob. This girl finally associated with some possibility.
My fists were clenched so tightly that I could feel the bones of my hands colliding with each other. I thought of many possibilities, but I couldn’t calm myself down. My clenched fists were the only outlet for my emotions.
Cheng Qing sighed and looked up at the sky. Uncle Li had not embarked on the path of Kunlun, but he must have thought of a lot. He looked at the sky with his usual calmness, and two tears rolled down his cheeks.
Without any warning, the two old men blocked Xiao Chengqian’s path when he approached the stranger. At this time, the elegant Xiao Da Shao was no longer half elegant. He was so excited that he couldn’t even speak. He stared at the two old men, and his throat actually emitted a furious, beast-like gurgling sound, and there was a little madness in his eyes.
The look in his eyes was like he was about to devour someone else’s eyes. If the two old men continued to block his way,
If Xiao Chengqian is desperate… I silently took a step forward, making my attitude clear. This stranger under the cloak is too important to us.
“Let him pass.” Yang Sheng’s voice was cold and indifferent, but I could still hear a hint of smugness in his voice as he took control of the situation.
Yang Sheng’s order was obviously irresistible. The two old men stepped aside, and Xiao Chengqian finally rushed past the final obstacle, almost crawling past, and then hugged the legs of the old man who was in a daze… He looked up as if he wanted to say something, but the words in his mouth turned into a “woo-woo” sound, which was the sound of crying.
Then, Xiao Chengqian simply hugged the old man’s leg and wept, like a child who had suffered a lot of injustice, or like emotions that had been suppressed for decades and were now about to be completely vented.
Both groups of people were silent, and the drizzle was coming in bursts. It seemed that only Xiao Chengqian was left in the wind, sobbing endlessly… My eyes felt hot, and I looked at Yang Sheng, but I couldn’t say anything. I didn’t know why, but I still couldn’t muster up the courage…
Xiao Chengqian cried like this for about two minutes before he slowly stopped. He stood up, put his hands on the shoulders of the old man, took a deep breath, and then said to the old man, “Cousin, are you really my cousin?”
The old man didn’t seem to hear him, and didn’t respond to Xiao Chengqian’s question. He didn’t even look at Xiao Chengqian’s face, and still stared blankly ahead, his eyes unfocused…
Xiao Chengqian’s face changed slightly, but he still forced a smile and stared at the old man, saying earnestly, “Cousin, I’m Chengqian. Don’t you remember me? Although you and I are almost forty years apart in age, I’ve always been close to you since I was a child… We have a very good relationship. You love me more than my parents, you…”
The older cousin still didn’t respond to Xiao Chengqian’s question, and I saw Xiao Chengqian’s face suddenly turn red, and the whole person seemed to be a bit off. I couldn’t calm down anymore. If this continued, Xiao Chengqian would definitely be mentally damaged. If the pent-up anger in his chest was not vented, it would cause very serious consequences.
Brother Chengxin is a medical expert, and he obviously saw the problem faster than I did. When I was about to take action, he had already walked over in big strides…
At the same time, Xiao Chengqian was already unable to restrain himself. He let go of the hand resting on the old man’s shoulder, and once again revealed that beastly gaze. Then he walked toward Yang Sheng step by step, gritting his teeth and saying, “What did you do to my cousin? Ah, what did you do? Why did he become like this?”
Yang Sheng seemed to look down on Xiao Chengqian, and simply ignored Xiao Chengqian’s questions. His face was facing mine, and I guessed that the gaze behind the sunglasses was also on my face.
Xiao Chengqian obviously couldn’t stand Yang Sheng’s attitude. He was already out of control, and without getting any response, he suddenly rushed towards Yang Sheng. It looked like he was going to start a fight. Under this kind of excitement, he even forgot that he was a Taoist, and just relied on human instincts to start a fight like the secular world.
The two old men standing next to Yang Sheng moved. If Xiao Chengqian rushed over, the consequences would be very bad. At this time, Chengxin arrived. He grabbed Xiao Chengqian, who was crazy, and before Xiao Chengqian could react, he used a special technique to slap Xiao Chengqian’s back a few times.
With a ‘whoosh’, Xiao Chengqian spat out a mouthful of blood… In fact, it was the churning and pent-up energy in his chest that was spewed out. Although it was somewhat harmful to the body, it would always be better to recuperate, otherwise the energy would rush into the brain, and it would be hard to say what would happen.
“Calm down,” said Chengxin, helping Xiao Chengqian to his feet.
Xiao Chengqian, who had vomited blood, finally felt better, and his emotions were relatively calm. He knew that we would not harm him, and he finally remembered that there was a group of us standing behind him.
But Xiao Chengqian’s face was still ugly. He let Chengxin hold him, then looked at me. In my eyes, Xiao Chengqian’s face turned pale and his lips trembled. It lasted for more than ten seconds before Xiao Chengqian said to me in a hoarse voice, “Chengyi… do you remember? We… our family line follows your master, and some people have also disappeared… almost the entire previous generation of pillars has disappeared… since we are passed down in the form of a family, they are all my relatives… Chengyi, I went looking with hope, and this may have something to do with my position in the organization, but more so the pain of losing my loved ones drove me to do it.
In the drizzle, I listened quietly to Xiao Chengqian’s story. He originally had a kind of feminine beauty, with a somewhat feminine appearance, and now he looked even more miserable.
He never got to the point, but my heart was slowly confirming something. The excitement was about to overwhelm me, and I was barely holding on.
“Chengyi… my cousin was also one of the missing people back then, but… but he’s become like this?” After saying this, Xiao Chengqian suddenly knelt on the ground, looked up at the sky again, and cried out in pain, as if only the most intense emotions could vent the various emotions in his heart at the moment.
I finally couldn’t help but take two steps back, and I almost did the same thing with Xiao Chengqian’s brother. Although I had already guessed, once the matter was confirmed, we were still surrounded by the stormy emotions.
The person who disappeared with the master has appeared? Why did Yang Sheng find him?
I finally remembered what I wanted to ask Yang Sheng. But what should I ask?
“Chen Chengyi, so now you say, do I have the right to take this corpse away?” Yang Sheng, who had been watching the drama with a cold eye, finally spoke up.
