The people here are different from other places. Even during the Chinese New Year, their faces are full of sighs and disappointments. Many people unconsciously walk to the big hole left by Grandma Shi after she moved away.

There was no smile on his face, only sadness.

I remember that when Grandma Shi was here, the water, electricity, heating and other facilities and services here were the best in the city and the most timely supply...

But how do the people living here treat the widows of martyrs?

Now, people have moved away...

All the special care here has been moved away with the family...

"If I had known this, why would I have..."

"I'm just a lonely old lady, so what can I do if she's nicer to others? Is she missing a few pieces of meat?"

"How can it be like this even if you show even half an ounce of goodwill?"

"We must make the entire community look like stepmothers... Young people in the community go out to look for jobs. When people hear that they are from this community, they won't hire them... No matter how educated they are, they won't hire them. Because...

Bad character!"

"What kind of evil is this?"

Everyone's face was gloomy, and they numbly posted Spring Festival couplets. They looked at the ruins of their originally beautiful and comfortable houses, and then looked at the wooden house they lived in now...it was still leaking...

Many people are so regretful that their intestines are swollen.

Zuo Xiaoduo stood quietly in front of the old site of Grandma Shi's house, seeming to see the stubborn old lady again.

Shut the door with a bang.

The scene where everything in the world is shut out in the wind and rain.

"If I hadn't nudged Grandma Shi to move away, she would have lived here forever, or she wouldn't have died..."

Zuo Xiaoduo was lost in thought.

But there is no answer to this question.

Many people noticed Zuo Xiaoduo, and some people recognized him. This child used to often visit the lonely old lady...

So someone came up and said, "This little brother, you..."

They were pleading eagerly, with pleading eyes, begging Zuo Xiaoduo to speak so that they could receive the care and repair they deserve earlier.

Zuo Xiaoduo turned a deaf ear and still just stared at the traces that originally existed.

"It's the New Year...Old man, have a great New Year..." Zuo Xiaoduo bowed deeply.

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left without any regrets.

After his death, so many people were pleading and pleading, but Zuo Xiaoduo didn't seem to hear a word.

Not even the look in his eyes changed at all.

What does it have to do with me whether I die or not?

I'm not a saint, nor am I a good person.

Just as you are regretting: If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?

As he walked along, looking at Fenghai, his soul was inexplicably shaken.

Looking at this city caught in the New Year atmosphere, I seem to feel that my mentality is slowly changing...

It was a very strange and eccentric feeling. It seemed that the whole person's spirit was detached from the current space. He was standing high in the sky, looking down at all living beings, but he was incompatible with it and couldn't blend in...

Zuo Xiaoduo knew that this state was very abnormal, but he still couldn't concentrate and attract him back.

A long time passed, and the whole person was still in a subtle and dreamy state of feeling.

In the corner, an old man in gray clothes couldn't help being shocked.

"Is this... touching the state of mind? The soul is reborn? This... this is not a state that can only be derived from geniuses in the late stage of Yushen, or even those who have been promoted to the Guixuan realm... But in the cloud transformation stage, why is the power of the soul so weak?

Is it powerful? No, how can Huayun’s sea of ​​consciousness control such a powerful soul..."

The gray-robed old man was so angry that he shouted in a deep voice: "Duh!"

With a slight scolding, there was a powerful wave of spiritual energy, wrapped in the power of the soul, suddenly erupting in Zuo Xiaoduo's ear. Then, Zuo Xiaoduo's spiritual energy was scattered and about to burst out, and he quickly stopped it at the touch of a touch.

Return to the sea of ​​consciousness.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, Xiaobai and Xiaojiu trembled and sank into the sea of ​​life, pretending to be dead.

Just now, it was the two of them who absorbed the power of spiritual thoughts and practiced back and forth.

Xiaobai spits it out to Xiaojiu, and Xiaojiu spits it out to Xiaobai. They communicate and exchange with each other, and each time they switch, the power becomes purer.

But after spitting it out this time, Xiaojiu suddenly discovered that there was a shadow of a sword secretly intercepting energy next to him. How could he not know that someone else was stealing his own benefits? He was so angry that he stepped forward to fight.

And this unknown point caused the back and forth power between Xiaojiu and Xiaobai to be unbalanced. The unbalanced power, because it had accumulated too much pure power, exploded in an instant, threatening to destroy Zuo Xiaoduo's spiritual consciousness.

The sea bursts...

If the old man in gray robe had not been well-informed, could instantly judge the situation, and exploded his soul power to provide help, Zuo Xiaoduo would have paid the price of being confused for a long time at least, and may even have damaged the sea of ​​​​consciousness, which would have cost a lot of money.

It takes time to repair...

After all, it is a divine thought that has been refined through many innate spiritual treasures, how can it be different from Xiaoke...

Of course, now the situation has changed again. The small amount of spiritual power that Xiaobai and Xiaojiu have exuded has become Zuo Xiaoduo's possession due to this change. It can also be regarded as a coincidence, a blessing in disguise.

…

But the reasons and even the ultimate pros and cons, no matter whether it is Xiaobai, Xiaojiu, Zuo Xiaoduo, or the gray shadow master, they only understand the part they are involved in, and no one understands the whole thing!

At another moment, Zuo Xiaoduo suddenly felt a sense of clarity. When he opened his eyes, he suddenly had a subtle feeling that 'I am back in the human world again'.

This feeling is really amazing.

Everything in front of me seemed to go from completely blurry to 10,000% clear.

Suddenly he jumped up and laughed loudly; "It's Chinese New Year!!"

Before he finished speaking, he ran away in a flash.

The old man in gray robe wanted to come forward and say a few words to him, but he saw this kid running away quickly...

I couldn't help but touch my head and smiled: "Yes, it's the New Year...it's the New Year again..."

He raised his head and looked at the sky, with too many memories flashing past in his eyes.

"It's Chinese New Year again..."

After a long, long time, I followed him again.

But they saw that although Zuo Xiaoduo ran all the way back to the villa, he did not go home. Instead, he ran to Ye Changqing's house to pay New Year greetings. Unfortunately, Ye Changqing was not at home. He then ran to Wen Xingtian, who was also not there. Young Master Zuo

I couldn't help but feel strange.

Why are there two people who are celebrating the Chinese New Year missing?

Zuo Xiaoduo called Wen Xingtian without believing in evil, and found out that Wen Xingtian and other brothers took advantage of the holidays to visit the graves of their fallen brothers.

By the way, I went to the Tomb of the Heroic Soul to have a drink with all the brothers and get drunk together.

Naturally, Zuo Xiaoduo would not disturb a gathering of old buddies without seeing it. After thinking about it, he called Li Chenglong again and inquired about the situation of Xiang Chong and Zhan Xuejun. Li Chenglong responded that he had nothing to say.

Something unusual happened. Everyone is celebrating the New Year at Xiang's house, gathering together and having a great time.

Li Chenglong asked Zuo Xiaoduo if he was coming too. As soon as he opened his mouth, another group of people took the call and invited Zuo Xiaoduo to come over and play poker. Then Li Chenglong shouted anxiously on the side: "It's okay to let him come, but he won't play poker..."

… After playing once, there are only a few poker cards left. He can carry more than 200 cards in his pocket and keep more than 100 cards for cheating..."

Everyone burst into laughter, laughing and scolding that there were such shameless people in this world.

Zuo Xiaoduo cursed loudly: "Li Chenglong, you are ruining my reputation. I'll wait for you!"

Then he set off to the Xiang family's old house, walked around the Xiang family, and found that the Xiang family's ancestor, Kuangren Xiang, was not there, so that the entire Xiang family had become a paradise for young people.

Zuo Xiaoduo didn't stay at Xiang's house for too long, and moved to Gao's house. He also stood up and left after sitting for a few minutes. Gao Qiaoer knew that he had too many things that needed to be dealt with, so he simply asked him if he wanted to help him deal with it.

?

Zuo Xiaoduo thought for a while and said, let’s talk about it after the tenth day of the Lunar New Year; before and after the New Year, life is the most important thing, and we won’t talk about anything else until the festival is over.

Even for warriors who have entered Taoism, celebrating festivals is still a very important thing, because... maybe at some point, they will lie cold in the rivers and lakes, or be shattered and scattered on the battlefield...

Therefore, every festival is worth cherishing, and Zuo Xiaoduo doesn’t want to ruin it.

When he came out of Gao's house, he met Wu Yunhai, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

The two brothers Wu Yunhai, covered with snow, stood at the street entrance, seemingly waiting for Zuo Xiaoduo to come out.

"Monitor Zuo, do you want to go sit at home? Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, let's have some fun and relax."

Wu Yunhai showed great enthusiasm, expectation, and... anxiety.

Since the last big incident in Xingmang Mountains, the Wu family has never had the chance to reconcile with Zuo Xiaoduo. Since then, Zuo Xiaoduo has been soaring into the sky like a comet, no matter in terms of strength or status.

No chance to touch it!

Around Zuo Xiaoduo, Gao Qiaoer, Li Chenglong and others were like copper and iron walls, blocking out all interested people and unintentional visitors.
