"Chapter 1: A Boy in the Mountains"
"Giggle......
The rooster crows, just about to wake up the sleeping people.
The sun also showed half of its face in the clouds as if it had just woken up, and the morning sun was warming the earth.
The autumn wind rises and the white clouds fly, and the grass and trees are yellow and the geese return to the south.
100,000 mountains, is the mountains and mountains in the southern Xinjiang area, at this time the autumn wind is whisking, a line of geese row "people" herringbone flying over the sky of this 100,000 mountains.
And Li Yiming, who was in the 100,000 mountains, had already lit a fire in the kitchen, and the cooking smoke was faint, Li Yiming in the firewood room took out a clean rice bucket containing rice, made up half a bowl of rice, and cooked millet porridge.
Li Yiming, formerly known as Li Yi, his parents have little culture, Li Yiming is their first child, so he simply gave the name Li Yi, and then Li Yiming was six years old to the age of a schoolchild, and the teaching Mr. Li Zhi in the village was the only person who knew how to read and hyphenate words, and helped him add a "Ming" word, hoping that this little baby could be "a blockbuster"!
Although Li Yiming is diligent and studious, it is a pity that the conditions in the mountains are hard, Li Yiming learned to read and write for less than a year, and then went back to farming and hunting.
When Li Yiming was eight years old, his father went into the mountains to hunt with the hunters in the village, and was seriously injured by wild beasts, and after being rescued by the villagers who hunted, the medical conditions in the village were poor, and he died soon after, and his mother was weak and widowed, and the pain of losing her husband did not survive the winter of that year, and she also went with Li Yiming's father......
Eight-year-old Li Yiming became an orphan, his parents failed to leave him any inheritance, only two acres of thin fields, and a thatched house, the young Li Yiming under the care of the villagers, eat 100 family meals, and survive to this day.
At this time, Li Yiming was holding the blackened end of the burning stick and writing on the ground, because he couldn't afford to buy paper, which was a luxury in the mountains!
"The rice at home has run out again, and we have to go into the mountains to hunt and exchange the prey for some food!" Li Yiming muttered......
The mountain where Li Yiming is located is called Pishan, which is an ordinary mountain among the 100,000 mountains, and the roads in the mountains have always been rugged, with little oil and less salt.
The mountain people can only rely on hunting, picking mountain goods, and farming to maintain their daily life, and some caravans that collect mountain goods will enter this mountain once in half a month, and the mountain people exchange their prey and mountain goods for oil, salt, and some daily necessities.
Count the days, and the caravan will arrive in the next few days, and Yiming must hit some prey today in exchange for some living supplies!
Seeing that the boiled millet porridge was already boiling, Li Yiming hurriedly poured the millet porridge in the clay pot on the stove into the bowl, and blew it violently with his mouth.
"Hiccup......
Li Yiming, who was full, burped, and hinted in his heart that he was full, how could he be full of millet porridge for this half-grown young man?
I don't know why Li Yiming locked his thatched hut, the villagers are all simple people, there is no bad habit of theft, Li Yiming's house is broken, even if the thief comes, he will be disgusted!
In the mountains, the rain is abundant all the year round, warm and humid, rich in all kinds of mountain goods, such as mushrooms, wild bamboo shoots, sika deer and other game, it is also considered to be rich, but some beasts are the most deadly, that is, "the iron head of the mountain", is a poisonous snake!
For ordinary snakes, larger snakes, generally pythons, are non-venomous, while poisonous snakes have triangular heads and rich colors and patterns on their bodies, and the brighter the color patterns, the more poisonous the poisonous snakes are!
"Bishan soldering iron head" is about two or three meters long, the head is triangular, the whole body is green with black patterns, there are two huge fangs, because of the huge size, the venom stored in the body is several times that of other poisonous snakes, and if you bite it, you can basically be sentenced to death.
Li Yiming took out some realgar powder from the cloth bag on his waist and sprinkled it on himself, realgar can avoid some snakes, insects, rats and ants, and the most important thing is to avoid encountering poisonous snakes.
After driving through some rugged mountain roads, I walked into the big jungle of this mountain, which was full of thorns and weeds, and some of the weeds grew to half a man's height.
Li Yiming could only take the sickle to cut the weeds, and walked out of a way, and after a while, Li Yiming's hands were densely scarred, the weeds here were tall and big, and they were quite sharp, and the thorns were all thorns, but Li Yiming didn't care so much, this little injury would soon be scarred by applying some herbs.
Li Yiming lost his parents and lost a lot of worries, but his heart is becoming more and more bold, knowing that the more inaccessible the place, the easier it is to hunt good prey, and other places will not be his turn to take a share of the ten-year-old little doll, and it is also helpless to choose to go deep into the hinterland of the mountain.
found a small pit under a towering tree, cut some branches, and made a small trap, after all, ten-year-old Li Yiming has limited strength, and can only hunt small prey, and when he encounters a black blind brown bear, or a tiger and lion, he can only escape......
Li Yiming took out a piece of air-dried animal meat, which was a sika deer obtained by the hunters in the village, after slaughtering and drying, it was easy to store.
At this time, Li Yiming took it out as bait painfully, Li Yiming was reluctant to let the child trap not be a wolf, carefully paved the soil on the trap, put this piece of venison, and waited for rabbits and other prey to take the bait!
In this mountain, the local beasts are the real masters, they have to experience hunting every day, avoid natural enemies, and fight wits and courage with hunters, natural selection, survival of the fittest, and put it in the mountains, this principle is the law of survival.
After a while, a red fox smelled the smell of venison, and the fox tiptoed slowly close to the trap laid by Li Yiming, but the fox has always been cunning and suspicious by nature, and the fox's head turned flexibly, watching the surrounding environment, for fear that a natural enemy would appear.
And Li Yiming, who was hiding on the side, had his heart in his throat at this time, and he didn't dare to breathe, for fear of scaring the fox away.
This fox is called "Fire Fox" by the mountain people, and its fur is fiery red, and its plump and shiny fox fur is very popular in the caravans, because it is very popular with the ladies of the big city. Good furs change hands from the merchants, but they can be sold for a few taels of gold.
I saw Li Yiming holding the rope in his hand, and the other section of the rope was tied to the bracket of the trap, as long as the fire fox walked into the venison, Li Yiming pulled the rope in his hand, and the fire fox had no possibility of escaping.
Firefox looked around, making sure that there was no presence nearby that could threaten him, and finally couldn't help it, and quickly ran towards the venison.
With a "whoosh", Li Yiming pulled the rope of the trap, and the fire fox fell into the trap prepared earlier along with the venison.
Li Yiming jumped up happily and said to himself: "With this firefox, I can exchange more than a month's worth of supplies with the caravan that collects mountain goods!"
"Wow, wow, wow!"
From the trap came the shrill cry of a firefox. As if scolding, scolding Li Yiming for being cunning and luring him into a trap.
Li Yiming hurriedly fixed the head of the fire fox with a steel fork, and then grabbed the fox's limbs and tied them with ropes, and threw them into the sack, the fox's teeth and claws are still very sharp, if he was greeted by the fire fox, even the bloody scene of the belt Li Yiming didn't want to try, he tied the mouth of the bag firmly, he didn't want the prey in his hand to slip away, and he could exchange it for a month's rations.
After all, it is deep in the mountains, and he really met a fierce beast, and he couldn't cope with it, so he simply patted the soil on his body, picked up the sack and planned to go back, and on the way back to see if there were any wild mushrooms, he could pick and dry them, and he could also add one more home!
In Li Yiming's village, at this time, the village chief and the only teacher in the village were discussing a major matter in the village.
In a house made of stone tiles, it is the ancestral hall of the Li family, not to mention that the incense is prosperous, but also Miao Miao smokes, and the incense is constantly ......
"Village Chief, it's time for the bloodline to awaken and worship the ancestors again, do you have a specific list?"
"Hey, in recent years, our clan has withered, the probability of newborn birth is extremely low, and the survival rate is also extremely low, let alone awakening the bloodline?
"I can't care so much, all the school-age children of the Li clan between the ages of eight and twelve will gather in this Li ancestral hall in three days, high priest, you and I will join hands to start the ancestor worship ceremony, and if we don't look for a descendant of the ancestors, our God of War clan will really have no successor!"
It turned out that the teacher in the village was actually the high priest of the Li family, no wonder there were still people in this poor and remote mountain who were willing to be a teacher.
God of War, the ancient gods of the ancient period, they believe in bravery, strength, and battle, in the ancient times, the God of War clan is the world's top combat power existence, the sky can capture the phoenix, the sea can slay the dragon, the god of war is angry, the heaven and the earth are eclipsed, and then I don't know why the era of the gods ended, and the god of war clan as an ancient god clan also disappeared......
In the ancient era of the gods, the three clans of gods, demons and demons paid attention to the inheritance of bloodline, as long as they grew to the prime of life and stimulated the power of bloodline, they could obtain the power of destroying the world and destroying the world!
The God of War lineage, as the pinnacle of combat power in the Protoss, not only has a powerful body, but also a powerful cultivation method!
But now that time has passed, the Protoss has become a thing of the past, and the Terrans have become the masters of the world.
The era of the gods is divided into "god race", "demon race", "demon race", "human race", among which the human race is the weakest, and the general demon race takes the blood of the human race to cultivate, or becomes the ration of the demon race's captivity.
Although the Terrans are the weakest in terms of strength, the Terrans have advantages that other races do not have, and they are diligent and resourceful. The Protoss is the most capable of fighting, the demons are the most evil, the demons are the most greedy, and the Terrans are the smartest, this is the evaluation of all races in ancient times......
In order to break this situation, the leader of the descendant human race contacted the Protoss and sought cooperation, hoping to solve the situation of the weak and helpless human blood through intermarriage. In the end, the Terran recuperated under the protection of the Protoss, intermarried with the Protoss, and learned the powerful cultivation techniques of the Protoss, and finally the Terran not only became the master of the world, but also forced the other three clans out of the rich territory.
After the Protoss experienced the First World War in ancient times, the leader led the remaining clansmen to flee to other lands, and the demons were banished to the Netherworld, while the demons were expelled overseas, and the Terrans finally became the kings of the continent.
With the rise of the human race, after the improvement of the ancestors, we have entered the era of cultivation, as long as we have spiritual roots and understanding, we will no longer rely on the power of the bloodline to practice, and we can cultivate into profound power and go to heaven and earth, and we will be able to conquer mountains and seas.
The Li family in these 100,000 mountains is actually the descendants of the God of War, and they are the descendants of the God of War, and they have fallen to this point, and it is estimated that they have disappeared in this endless period of time for various reasons.
Li Yiming has returned to this small village, and greeted the villagers he met warmly, because the villagers here are his relatives, and after the death of Li Yiming's parents, Li Yiming grew up eating the meals of each family.
"Yo, Second Aunt Li, I'm drying vegetables, and when I put the things at home, I'll come over to help you!"
"You are busy with yourself first, my work is not very hard, I don't need to come over to help you, I see that your kid has grown taller again." ”
"It's okay, auntie, I'll come over and help you after I let go of the guy on my body."
After Li Yiming finished speaking, he hurried home, put down the things on his body, put the bag containing the fire fox in the firewood room, and went to help Aunt Li work.
At this time, it was already three poles on the sun, the temperature of the sun had completely shown his enthusiasm, and the cold in the mountains was also expelled, Li Yiming rolled up his sleeves and hurriedly helped the second aunt turn over the dried vegetables, the mountains said that the wind is rain, and this kind of good weather is the most suitable for drying things.
Second Aunt Li already knows that Li Yiming is kind and diligent, so she usually helps Li Yiming from time to time.
"Yiming, the rice at home is not enough, my aunt will decorate some rice for you and go back to make up a few meals, bring some dried vegetables, and the half-sized young man is the time to grow his body, eat more." ”
Li Yiming knew that the second aunt's family was not rich, but the elders didn't dare to quit: "Auntie, I hit a fire fox today, wait for the caravan to come, sell it at a good price, I'll change some more oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and I'll get you some when the time comes." ”
The second aunt felt that it was not easy for this child at this time, she had to run for her livelihood at a young age, but she was diligent and kind, otherwise it would be difficult for Li Yiming to grow up so big just by relying on hundreds of meals.
The second aunt took out a bag of sweet potatoes, a bag of millet, and a few bundles of dried vegetables, and handed them to Li Yiming: "Child, there are no good things at home, take some rations, fill your stomach, it's not enough to tell your aunt!"
"Auntie, don't worry, my uncle is not at home all the year round, I'll help you fill the water in the yard, and then chop the firewood in your yard, and I'll take your things back to cook, don't worry, I'm a man, I have strength!"
The husband of the second aunt, Li Erzhu, couldn't stand the hardships in the mountains, and went down the mountain to work as a long-term worker for the rich in the city, and to the rich people's land as a wheat guest.
Seeing that the autumn is already strong and the winter is about to begin, the second aunt diligently dried vegetables to reserve winter food.
