Heretic Doctor Zihou

Qin Shuang was very happy. He didn't know whether he was happy because he was able to help his lifesaver, or because this new relationship pulled them closer to each other.

"What are you looking for for your foster father? Are you a member of your foster father?" Qin Shuang's face had an excited smile. He can already confirm that Zihou belongs to his foster father. Because he found that Zihou and his foster father seemed to have many similarities.

Of course, Qin Shuang did not know the relationship between Zihou and Xuanyuan Zifeng. If he knew, he would find that what he thought was the so-called commonality between Zihou and Xuanyuan Zifeng, not shared between people of the same race, but from the same blood...

Zihou was stunned, then nodded almost invisible. Xuanyuan Zifeng is her father, and it's true that they are from the same family.

After getting a positive answer from Zihou, Qin Shuang patted his chest and promised, "Since you are a member of the foster father, when we return to Sky City, I will take you to see him immediately! I believe the foster father will see him. You will be very happy!"

Will it be like this?

Her father, whom she had never met, would be happy for the first time to meet her daughter who has not seen each other in more than 20 years?

She is not sure...

At this moment, the cowardly Zihou is a little confused.

Before they knew it, the group had already arrived outside Sky City. Standing on a cliff and looking down, in the boundless snowy area, a huge city rises from the ground, like a dormant ancient behemoth.

The towering city walls are all made of ice crystals. The mighty and magnificent city wall, like an ice dragon, continued to extend towards both sides, extending to the end of the field of vision.

The buildings behind the city wall are all silvery white like ice and snow, sometimes shimmering with crystal luster, like stars pouring down everywhere.

Sky City is undoubtedly huge. It can be said that this city is one of the largest cities ever seen in (Zihou). It can be described as boundless.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you can understand. Sky City is the only city in the Wind and Snow Region, where all the people in this world gather. Therefore, the huge city is reasonable.

"There is Sky City!" Qin Shuang pointed to the city not far away, with excitement and love on his face.

Every time he looked at Sky City from here, Qin Shuang couldn't restrain the surging in his heart. Such emotions had never faded for more than 20 years. This is the place where he was born and grew up, carrying all his memories. This is his home, with his family and friends. He loves this land and its people deeply.

The group of people went down in the wind and soon entered the city.

After saying goodbye to his teammates, Qin Shuang took Zihou to his residence. Although he is the son of the city lord, he is also a more casual and free person. Therefore, he did not live with Xuanyuan Zifeng in the mansion of the city lord, but in a simple hut in Sky City.

Although Sky City is big, it is no bigger than any other city outside. Because there are almost no foreign tourists or adventurers, there are no places for people to stay here, such as restaurants. Zihou did not reject Qin Shuang for this reason.

Qin Shuang led Zihou into his home. Perhaps it was the first time to bring a stranger home, but Qin Shuang was a little cautious and embarrassed.

Zihou looked around. Although Qin Shuang's home is not big, it is bright and clean, and it feels very comfortable.

"My house is a bit messy... Brother Ziyun, don't mind..." Qin Shuang scratched his head shyly.

The tough and handsome Qin Shuang blushed with shame, which made Zihou raise his eyebrows in surprise, and for the first time carefully looked at the man in front of him.

The man in front of him is undoubtedly outstanding. Tall and straight figure, handsome and resolute face. The blizzard in the snowy region will not be rough to torment his face, but will polish him with a three-dimensional effect. The tall nose is like the most perfect artwork in ancient Greece. A pair of black eyes with light blue hidden in them are like precious gems. Those piercing eyes and the sword eyebrows flying diagonally into the temple give people a kind of righteousness. At this moment, he looked a little shy, explaining that he was not fully mature, and retained the simplicity and shyness of a big boy.

People really need more understanding. Before, Zihou was immersed in one's own mind, only focusing very little attention on Qin Shuang. Therefore, he didn't think Qin Shuang had anything special. Now, when she temporarily withdrew from her own world and paid close attention to Qin Shuang with a solemn attitude, she discovered how shining brilliance and unique personality charm the fellow she regarded as a stranger had!

Zihou is easy to feel good about such people. This kind of heartfelt goodwill is also the key to whether others can become friends with Zihou.

"Brother Qin..." Zihou raised her lips and smiled, trying to express a higher level of friendship to Qin Shuang, but when she first said these three words, her heart suddenly hurt.

She couldn't help but think of Qin Liehuo!

She clearly remembered that she was so affectionately called Qin Liehuo'Big Brother Qin' in the Qingyun Mountains!

Zihou's heart throbs. Ye Li's death has finally become a difficult hurdle for Zihou. Like a wound that never heals. It's fine if you don't touch it on weekdays, but once you touch it, it will be bloody!

"What's wrong with you?" Qin Shuang's complexion changed with the action of Zihou covering his heart and the pale complexion.

Zihou shook his head, and it took a long time to calm down the surging emotions in my heart, "Suddenly thought of a dead old man..." Zihou said apologetically.

Qin Shuang nodded, and said nothing. He knew that the dead deceased must be very, very important to Zihou. If this is the case, why should he go to expose people's scars?

Qin Shuang settled Zihou, and planned to take Zihou to Xuanyuan Zifeng. However, before he went out, someone came to him and said that there was something very important.

"Brother Qin, I'm not in a hurry, you can do it if you have anything."

Qin Shuang apologized, "Then I'll take you back when I come back. I'll be back as soon as possible..."

After Qin Shuang was gone, Zihou could not stay alone in the house. The city outside was unfamiliar and fresh, and she wanted to go out and have a look.

Zihou only discovered when walking on the street that is not too spacious and blending into the crowd. This world covered by snow storms, this lonely city, even if the environment is terrible and shocking, but the lives of the people living here are like flames.

Those ordinary hawking, those ordinary conversations, even those lonely walks, the most subtle bits and pieces of life, the people here deduced them, but they were full of infinite passion and vitality.

Zihou is puzzled, what makes them live so passionately?

Zihou couldn't help but approached and asked a passerby walking alone on the street. Although the man was an ordinary mortal, there was wind under his feet when he was walking. The rough and red face that had been tortured by the wind and snow had always been filled with a warm smile. Those dark eyes were bright and full of hope.

"The wind and snow can freeze my body to numbness, but it can't freeze this place..." The man put his hand on his heart, "As long as you have hope in your heart, you will be able to meet the spring!"

If Zihou has some enlightenment.

In the worst environment, the most powerful soul can often be bred. If life is free from misery and twists and turns, it loses its meaning.

Zihou suddenly remembered a sentence from previous lives: If we face the sufferings in life, those sufferings also have noble meaning.

This great city where the song of ice and fire is played every day!

In the central square of Sky City, a huge circular altar was built. Twelve relatively small circular altars surround the huge altar, like planets orbiting stars.

Zihou looks at these altars carefully. The twelve ceremonies all show a thick ink color. In this icy world, the colors of these altars are undoubtedly the strongest. Each altar is carved with intricate and obscure runes. These runes are complicated and unfamiliar to her. Zihou does not know the origin and meaning of these altars. But her instinct told her that these altars would never be simple.

Just as Zihou was looking at the altars, there was a commotion around.

"Look, it's the city lord!"

"The Lord of the City is mighty!"

"Our great Lord of the City..."

...

The sound from the surroundings flooded Zihou like a tide. However, Zihou did not hear a word. At this moment, her mind was blank, and her ears were buzzing like a swarm of bees.

Sky City Lord...

Her father!

Zihou has tried countless kinds of reunion between their father and daughter, but did not expect such an unexpected encounter!

A heart beating like a drum, Zihou can no longer hear any outside sounds. She followed the others and looked forward, the emotions in her eyes were extremely complicated.

The crowd is probably too turbulent, Zihou has been squeezed to the end of the crowd unknowingly, so that she has not been able to see the appearance of the people, only a few figures vaguely through the gap of the crowd in her Now and then there is now and then.

But in the end, she saw the person striding past her in front of her, followed by several people. Only the person's profile can be seen from her angle. But all this is an unprecedented experience for Zihou.

Past and present lives, two lives as human beings. This was the first time she saw her biological father walk in her life. For the first time, she was so close to the person who had the same blood as her!

That feeling is indescribable.

Zihou looked blankly at the person who was drifting away in front of him, his heart seemed to be pinched by something. An inexplicable emotion rushed to her heart, making her eye sockets red and her nose sore.

Zihou is not clear whether it is the instinctive reaction left by the original owner or her own.

It may be because there is an unexplainable bond between father and daughter. So that Xuanyuan Zifeng walked through the vast sea of ​​people, no matter how noisy the surroundings were, he keenly felt a special look...

He turned around instinctively, looking back at the crowd, but his eyes were finally drowned in countless faces filled with passion and joy. A feeling of loss poured into Xuanyuan Zifeng's hopeful eyes. When he retracted his gaze and continued to move forward, his heart suddenly hurt at that moment, a feeling of sorrow over him, making him unable to breathe.

He seemed to miss something important, he was sure that it was something more important than his life!

A heart in Zihou suddenly raised his throat because of Xuanyuan Zifeng's turning back. She didn't expect that Xuanyuan Zifeng would look back at this time, and still look in her direction.

Was it a coincidence or did he perceive her presence?

Because of Xuanyuan Zifeng's sudden look back, Zihou finally saw his general appearance. For the first time in more than 20 years, she saw her father's face.

There is no doubt that her father is a good to almost perfect man. He seems to have all the advantages of a man: tall and straight, handsome and handsome. He has a perfect appearance of fortitude and handsomeness, as well as a noble and elegant temperament. Between his gestures, the aura of the superior was in full view. Not only that, his easy-going personality, with a touch of **** melancholy.

A sense of pride and prosperous Yan came to life spontaneously. This excellent man is her father, and this recognition makes Zihou strange but also satisfying.

However, Zihou was disappointed after all. Because Xuanyuan Zifeng quickly withdrew his gaze again, leaving her with a generous back.

The corners of the lips of Zihou raised a wry smile. Yes, they are separated by a vast sea of ​​people, even if the father and daughter have a strong feeling between them, how can they reunite in such a situation for a long time?

She is not the kind of little girl who holds fantasy. She and Xuanyuan Zifeng have never seen each other for more than 20 years, and now she is dressed in men's clothing. How could Xuanyuan Zifeng recognize her in the crowd?

Zihou watched Xuanyuan Zifeng leave, and sensibly told her that it was not the occasion for their father and daughter to meet each other.

When Zihou returned to Qin Shuang's house, Qin Shuang was already waiting for her.

"Sorry, I just went out for a stroll..."

"It's okay. I just came back. I just received the news that the foster father will probably be very busy now. It is very likely that we will not see him now. I have asked someone to inform the foster father, and the foster father asked me to pass. I will take you to find him in two hours."

"it is good."

There is no day and night in the snowy area. Day is an eternal melody.

Two hours later, Qin Shuang took Zihou to the City Lord's Mansion.

On the way, Zihou frowned and thought deeply. She asked Qin Shuang about her mother, Xiao Changge, but Qin Shuang was unexpectedly unclear. He only knew that his stepmother had never seen her face in these years.

Such news is undoubtedly big bad news for Zihou. Since her mother has never appeared in Sky City for so many years, what does it mean? It means that her mother was either seriously injured or she was already...

Zihou didn't dare to think too much.

Soon, the two came to the City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord's Mansion seems to be very busy today, people come in and recognize, the expressions on everyone's faces are nervous and serious. This makes Zihou a little curious.

"Did something happen?" Zihou asked Qin Shuang.

Qin Shuang's complexion was also a bit solemn, and he said solemnly, "I also just heard that the sleeping beasts in the snowy area around Sky City don't know what's wrong, and they all rioted like they went crazy..." Qin Shuang Thinking about it now, did the bite of the ice field they encountered, like other fierce beasts, would bite them when they went crazy for some reason?

Zihou nodded thoughtfully. She didn't understand the situation here, so she didn't think too much.

In the study, Xuanyuan Zifeng had just sent away a deacon, sitting on his seat looking up at the ceiling and exhaling a stale breath. He thought at this time that his son Qin Shuang should have brought his ‘clanman’.

Thinking of the so-called clansmen Qin Shuang mentioned, Xuanyuan Zifeng was a little curious. His tribe had already moved into Xuanyuan Realm long ago, leaving only one elder who stood firm. It stands to reason that it is impossible for those clansmen who have gone to Xuanyuan Realm to come to him. Furthermore, not everyone can easily come to Sky City. That being the case, where did his tribe come from?

Xuanyuan Zifeng was thinking, Qin Shuang's voice came from outside the door. Xuanyuan Zifeng sat up straight, and replied towards the door, "Come in..."

Zihou followed Qin Shuang into the study.

Similar to the style of the City Lord's Mansion, Xuanyuan Zifeng's study is not so exquisite and luxurious, but simple and simple, revealing a warm taste in the subtleties.

Zihou lowered his head slightly, and did not look at Xuanyuan Zifeng sitting above, but instead looked at the floor for himself. Of course, she could feel the two deep gazes above her head.

"Foster father, this is Ziyun..." Qin Shuang said, then smiled and said to Zihou, "Brother Ziyun, this is the person you are looking for..."

Xuanyuan Zifeng nodded. His eyes had already fallen on Zihou the moment Zihou came in.

The man in black, oh, not so much a man, as a boy. In Xuanyuan Zifeng's eyes, even if the men's Zihou deliberately pretends to be an old-fashioned look, in his opinion, it is still slightly immature.

The juvenile is tall and slender, and is not tall and burly among men of the same age. However, this slender body has a surprisingly calm and demeanor that is neither humble nor humble. This made Xuanyuan Zifeng a little surprised.

Not only that, Xuanyuan Purple Scenery was looking at the figure of a young man. He hadn't seen the appearance clearly yet, and there was already a familiar feeling flowing in his heart.

"Ziyun has seen the city lord." Zihou clasped his fists and bowed, his tone of insulting insult.

"Little guy, why are you keeping your head down? Is it possible that I am afraid that I will eat you?" Xuanyuan Zifeng was in a strange mood for some reason, so he started to tease.

As soon as he said this, Qin Shuang on the side was secretly surprised. Although his foster father is easy-going and has no pretensions, he is not by nature the kind of person who likes to joke. For so many years, he had never seen a foster father ridicule a person like this, but such a thing happened to Ziyun who he first met!

Such a cordial attitude and words are undoubtedly a great encouragement for Zihou, and she almost couldn't help but tell the truth in one breath. But she knew that she couldn't, because everything needed a gradual process.

Zihou slowly raised his head, the expression on his face was calm and indifferent. A pair of dark eyes contained all emotions.

When Xuanyuan Zifeng saw this face, his heart was slightly touched. Of course, this face is strange to him. But for some reason, just looking at the delicate eyebrows and smart eyes, he couldn't help feeling a kind of compassion and heartache.

That kind of feeling, like he looked at his child again...

What an incredible thing!

Xuanyuan Zifeng was shocked by his own thoughts.

"Are you really a member of my Chaos Clan?" Xuanyuan Zifeng asked with frowning. He did feel the aura of their ancient chaotic tribe from Zihou, but it was different from the ordinary chaotic ancient tribe. Rao is his current cultivation base above the gods, breaking through the shackles of the rules, and when he is watching Zihou, it is as if he can't really see it through the distant mountains and clouds.

Zihou was about to say something, Xuanyuan Zifeng suddenly coughed while clutching his chest. His expression hides the forbearance of pain.

Zihou was almost subconscious, and came to Xuanyuan Zifeng’s side to investigate his situation...

Xuanyuan Zifeng didn't like others to contact him. If he doesn't want Zihou to get close because of his cultivation base, he can do it easily even when his old injuries relapse. But, obviously, Xuanyuan Zifeng does not reject the contact of Zihou. On the contrary, in addition to being a little surprised at the behavior of Zihou, he really likes Zihou for his care...

After a little investigation, the expression in Zihou suddenly became solemn. Xuanyuan Zifeng's injury seemed to be more serious than she expected. She even had to wonder, even if a pill like Peerless Pill could cure his injury, it was hard to say!

"It's an old problem, it's okay..." Xuanyuan Zifeng shook his head and smiled. Yun Danfeng's posture called Zihou felt nervous.

She naturally did not agree with Xuanyuan Zifeng's words. Although his injury only recurs occasionally, it is extremely painful once it recurs. In addition, the accumulation of old injuries will be even more out of control in the future!

Zihou frowns the eyebrows. She roughly understands Xuanyuan Zifeng's cultivation base that an existence of this level would logically not be bothered by injuries. There is only one explanation, that is, Xuanyuan Zifeng was injured by a cultivator more powerful than him!

After a while, Xuanyuan Zifeng smiled and said to Zihou, "You haven't answered my question yet?"

Zihou captures the thoughts in the heart. Finally, I got my courage and opened my mouth to say everything, but there was a cry of exclamation outside at an untimely time...
