Steep ice peaks pierced the sky, stretching for more than 300 miles, the snow drifted away, the wind howled in the sky, and the dark clouds hung low.

"When I came here last year, there was a mysterious forest in front of me, but now how did it become a snow-capped mountain?" Qing Xuan looked at the snowy peaks in front of him and fell into deep thought.

According to the locals, a month ago, there was a sudden heavy snowfall here, the nearby river dried up, and the sky was thunderbolted, as if the end of the world, for more than ten days in a row, and after the storm, the snow-capped mountains appeared. The locals said that it was the wrath of the gods, which set a ban and blocked the evil forces of the West. Xuanyun said.

For several years, they searched everywhere for the traces of Xuanshi, this is where Qing Xuan comes every year, and this time he came with Xuanyun, Xuanyue, and Qingxing.

"The sky above the snow-capped mountains is unpredictable, even I can't cross it, just like the forest at the beginning, Yun'er, let's go, don't come back in the future. Qing Xuan said.

"Uncle, did you say that your father is still alive?" Xuan Yun said, "The emperor said that he traveled the world with his sword, but even the most famous astrology master can't figure out his whereabouts, if he is still alive, why don't you come back to see us?"

"Yun'er, look at this snow-capped mountain in front of you, who can deduce its ins and outs? There are always some things in the world that people can't understand, as for your father, let him live in the heart of the empire, the dead are better than the living. Qing Xuan said.

"Uncle, I don't understand your words. Xuanyun said.

"One day you will understand, your father is great because he died, and the emperor respects him as the first person in the empire, but if he suddenly comes back to life, then the emperor will immediately turn him into the biggest rebel of the empire," Qing Xuan said, "So I don't let you join the army, I'd rather you go and be a free mercenary." ”

Xuan Yun nodded and said, "Uncle, I understand, but Xuan Yue and Qingxing can't understand it, by the way, the two of them have gone down the mountain now, let's go too." ”

"Yun'er, you go first, alas, the two of them have nothing to do, and they will have to rely on you to take care of them in the future, by the way, let them stay away from those princes and nobles in the future. Qing Xuan said.

Xuanyun answered, turned and left.

Qing Xuan looked at the mysterious snow-capped mountain in front of him and fell into deep thought, the mysterious child three years ago, and the familiar figure, all this was difficult to go away in his heart for a long time.

"Big brother, I know that you are on the other side of the mountain, and I also know why you left, you are always so upright, why don't you bear with it a little longer, and wait until I return to the imperial capital, what should you do with me when you leave?" Qing Xuan said softly, as if Master Xuan was by his side.

"I know that the third brother has disappointed you, and even the Red Sun Empire has disappointed you, although I don't understand what happened in the imperial capital that night, but I also guessed a thing or two, when Jun Liushui put your long sword in front of me, I knew that the general trend was gone. ”

"I handed over the post of national teacher, founded the 'Tianbo' Academy in the imperial capital, and cultivated batch after batch of outstanding talents for the empire, because I can't let go of the Red Sun Empire that we created with our own hands, but the suspicion of the third brother is getting heavier and heavier day by day, and I have already given birth to a plan to withdraw completely, and the empire may really no longer need us. ”

"Jun Liushui is very smart, he knows how to eliminate our influence little by little, although the fame of the two of us is unmatched in the empire, but this false name has not stopped the transformation of the empire, the sky is the greatest, but who in the world really cares about the sky!"

"Although no one has deduced your whereabouts, but I know that you are on the other side of the mountain, how can you extrapolate as an ordinary person when you have stepped into the god-level realm? One day you will come across this mountain, and maybe that mysterious child, big brother, this is the last time I will come here to see you, from now on I will focus on studying my own magic research, and I will never think about anything else, you can rest assured, I will take care of the two children Xuanyun and Xuanyue, goodbye!"

A thousand words flashed from his heart, Qing Xuan sighed gloomily, and turned to leave.

Half an hour later, a gorgeous four-** carriage rolled smoothly through the soft soil under the pull of eight horses, and quickly disappeared into the vast green hills.

On the snowy mountain, a dark shadow appeared on the top of the mountain where the snowflakes were flying.

"Yu Qianxue, is this your masterpiece? This land has been frozen and isolated from outsiders, alas, what have you buried on the snowy mountain, causing the cold air in the sky to linger. Night Feather said, shaking off the snow from his body and stepping on the territory of the Red Sun Empire.

It turned out that Yu Qianxue buried the cold ice stone in the ground, and then used the method to take in the nearby water and turn it into a snow-capped mountain that stretched for more than 300 miles.

"I didn't expect that my memory was almost blank, although the world is big, but it has become a completely strange world for me. Night Feather said.

As night fell, he pushed open the humble houses of the people in the mountains, "Excuse me, old man, I am a bard from afar, I have lost my way in the mountains, can I stay here for the night?" he asked.

Rough and unwieldy furniture was haphazard in one corner of the room, a pair of bows and arrows and a few animal skins hung on the wall, and a steel fork was placed in the corner.

The grandfather and grandson, who were cooking the fire, raised their heads, and by the dim light, the old man's cloudy eyes looked at the strange boy who pushed the door suspiciously.

"Bard, you must have followed Master Qingxuan, but Master Qingxuan is gone, and there are no mountains and rivers here, except for poisonous snakes and beasts. The old man said.

"Master Qingxuan?oh, no, old man, you are mistaken, I don't know who Master Qingxuan is, the bard is just here for legends, I have crossed thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and you are the first people I met on the road. Night Feather said.

The old man froze, half loud, and slapped the child, "Go, quickly pour a bowl of ginger tea for the big brother to warm up." ”

Seeing Ye Yu drink the ginger tea, the old man asked curiously, "Young man, you have traveled thousands of miles alone, and you haven't met anyone along the way?"

"Yes, old man, at least as far as I can remember, I haven't met anyone. Night Feather replied.

"Oh, young man, haven't you heard of Master Qingxuan, and as a bard, how can you not even know Master Qingxuan?" the old man asked.

"Old man, I fell under a strange magic, and when I woke up, I forgot a lot of things, I forgot where I came from, I forgot my relatives, I forgot a lot of important everything. Night Feather said.

"Oh, I see, pitiful, do you know the Red Sun Empire? Do you know Master Xuan?" the old man said, "Do you remember the famous incident of the great Holy Swordsman Master Xuan and his brother Qing Xuan who created the powerful Red Sun Empire, and then traveled the world with their swords?"

Ye Yu was stunned, "I used to be determined to find the most famous legend in the world, but I didn't expect that now I don't remember anything, I don't know that there is the Red Sun Empire, I don't know the name of Qing Xuan, old man, can you tell me the story about the Red Sun Empire and them?" he asked.

"Oh, this story is long, more than twenty years ago, the world was in chaos, the great holy swordsman Xuanshi and the great magician Qingxuan joined forces, with Xiao Wuji as the emperor, pacified the world, and established a powerful Red Sun Empire...... the old man said.

......

"But, I don't remember anything," Ye Yu said and stood up, "You said that Master Qingxuan just left today, so I'm going to meet this person." ”

"Young man, Master Qingxuan has already left, you don't know the way, and it's night, how can you catch up? It's better to stay and stay overnight before leaving, tomorrow I will let Xiao San take you out, there are many poisonous snakes and beasts in the mountains, and it is very unsafe at night." The old man said.

Ye Yu shook his head and said, "I'm used to walking at night, old man, don't worry, on this road of ten thousand miles, I have also encountered countless fierce beasts, and the bard has his own ability to save his life." ”

"Ahem, young man, since you are leaving, I can't force you to stay, you can come here from a distant place, you naturally have your ability, but why are you so anxious to see that Qingxuan?" the old man asked.

"He reminded me of an old man, and I wondered what kind of friend he was, and maybe I knew why he had come here. Night Feather said, "Old man, goodbye." ”

He pushed open the door and plunged into the darkness, outside in the wind and rain.

"Grandpa, what is this?" asked the child, holding up a sparkling jewel at his feet.

The shining light of the gem stung his eyes, and the old man hurried out the door, the mysterious young bard was gone.

"Strange, why isn't the rhubarb guarding the door called?" said the old man suspiciously.

On a rainy night, when I couldn't see my fingers, Xuanyun on the car suddenly opened his eyes, and the cold wind blew in through the window, and the slightest cool rain drifted in.
