Chapter 2: The Past

At night, the stars are shining!

Tang Tian lay alone on the eaves, staring at the silent night sky, and remembered the night when his brother left for the last time.

One night five years ago, when the stars were also dotting, his brother Tang Yun hugged the five-year-old him, quickly climbed onto the highest eaves of the City Lord's Mansion, and then sat down and quietly accompanied him to look at the stars.

"One, two, three...... "

"Brother, look, there are so many stars in the sky?" said five-year-old Tang Tian in a childish tone, counting the stars in the night sky, and then whispered to his brother.

My brother looked at his cute appearance, caressed his head with his doting hand, and said gently: "Yes! It's still blinking! Isn't it very much like our little Tian'er?"

"Hmm!" Tang Tian replied with a childish nod.

"After that, my brother is gone, Xiao Tian'er has to learn to count the stars by himself!" the brother rubbed his hair and continued to say gently.

"Ah, brother, don't you want Tian'er?" Tang Tian listened to his brother's words, and looked at his brother with aggrieved eyes, for fear that his brother would abandon him.

The elder brother saw his aggrieved appearance, stroked his cheek, and then said dotingly: "Good, how can my brother not want Tian'er! I will often write letters to my father and Tian'er!"

Then he jumped off the eaves with him in his arms and gently placed him on the stone bench in the courtyard.

The elder brother looked at the five-year-old him, turned around, and said with his hands behind his back: "My brother is now a powerhouse on the honor list of Dune Academy. "

Speaking of this, my brother's body couldn't help but straighten up a little more.

"Honor List?" he bit his index finger, a little confused!

"Xiao Tian'er is still young!When you grow up and enter the Dune Academy to cultivate, you will know!" the elder brother turned around again and touched his hair.

Although Tang Tian didn't know what his brother was talking about, he had already taken it to heart.

The next day, his elder brother Tang Yun stepped out of the City Lord's Mansion, Tang Tian followed closely behind, and he knew that his brother was leaving again.

At this time, there were already three teenagers who looked very similar outside the gate of the mansion and were waiting here for a long time.

And next to the three teenagers, there was a rather obese middle-aged man, who was muttering something to his three disobedient sons.

"Uncle Song, why are you here?" his brother politely saluted the fat middle-aged man.

When the fat middle-aged man saw his brother, as if he saw hope, he immediately stepped forward and grabbed his brother's hand, pulled him aside and said:

"Oh! I said Yun'er! Although you four brothers have won the honor list, it is too dangerous for you to go this time!"

Looking at Uncle Song's anxious appearance, Tang Yun comforted: "Uncle Song, this time the academy leads the team, there will be no problems!"

"What's more, we've already signed up for the hunting battle, and now we can't regret it!"

Hearing this, Song Bo sighed helplessly!

The hunting battle is an exchange meeting held every three years among the five southwestern countries of Zixiao Palace in the Ziyun Continent, and it is not so much an exchange meeting as the minimization of the war between the five countries!

The Five Kingdoms originally belonged to Zixiao Palace, but ten years ago, an iron mine was discovered in the common border of the Five Kingdoms.

So in order to fight for the right to use, the five countries started a chaotic war.

In order to prevent the destruction of the living souls, he invited Zixiao Palace to come forward to adjust, and the adjustment method was the Five Kingdoms Hunting War.

And the representatives of the countries of the hunting war are the outstanding cadets of the highest academies of the countries.

The race took place in the Sunset Forest next to the Iron Mine.

The rule is that within the designated Sunset Forest, whichever country's team hunts the most monsters, which country has the full right to use the iron mine for three years.

In the Sand Dune Country, the Dune Academy is the highest level of cultivation in the country.

Because the academy is extremely strict in terms of the difficulty of recruiting new students and cultivating strong players on the honor list.

And Tang Yun and the three brothers of the Song family are not only from Dune College, but also won the honor list at the same time.

Maybe ordinary people don't know what the honor list is, but as long as you inquire carefully, you will know that the honor list is the ranking list of the highest outstanding students of Dune Academy.

The students who can make it to the honor list are all outstanding in their talent and strength!

Just as Song Bo sighed, he suddenly saw a middle-aged man walking out of the City Lord's Mansion, it was Tang Feng, the City Lord of Chishui City, who was also his world friend.

"Brother Tang, you came just in time, you can persuade these stinky boys! If you don't cultivate well in the academy, you have to participate in some hunting war!

Listening to Lao Song's complaints, Tang Feng couldn't help but laugh and said: "Old Song! The children have grown up, it's time to go out and break through! What's more, the four brothers won the honor list, and they should also set an example for others!"

As Tang Feng spoke, he also smiled and patted Lao Song's shoulder.

As the city lord of Chishui City, he knows more about hunting warfare than anyone else, although hunting warfare is dangerous, but it is better than a war between the five kingdoms!

If the five nations go to war, I don't know how many people will be displaced and how many children will be homeless!

Moreover, Tang Feng is also convinced that if the four brothers can win the glory list, they will definitely be able to escape in the hunting battle.

And Tang Tian, who was standing in front of the City Lord's Mansion, saw his brother leave, so he reluctantly followed Tang Feng back to the City Lord's Mansion.

On the fifth day of his brother's departure, Tang Tian was called to his side by Tang Feng, then opened the letterhead and read it aloud to him.

But since then, Tang Tian has never been called by Tang Feng to listen to the letter.

It wasn't until three months later that four bodies were brought back from Dune College.

And those four corpses were Tang Tian's brother Tang Yun who looked at him and left with a smile that day, and the three Song brothers.

That is, when the four corpses were escorted back, the Song family and the Tang family also began to break up.

Tang Tian didn't expect that his brother, who loved him, would leave him like this! Even, at that time, he didn't even know how his brother died.

When he was six years old, Tang Tian accidentally found some letters in Tang Feng's study.

When he saw it, these letters were all sent back by his brother Tang Yun before his death.

Tang Tian looked at the letters in his hand and couldn't help crying.

And when he turned to the last one, Tang Tian's swollen eyes were full of hatred!

Because in that letter, he found out that Yuanchen, the current crown prince of the Yuan Kingdom, was the murderer of his brother!

Tang Tian looked at this name, his hands couldn't help but tremble! It's been a year, and he finally knows the real murderer!

At this moment, the door of the study was pushed open, and Tang Feng looked at Tang Tian who was kneeling on the ground reading the letter in surprise.

"Dad, I want to practice martial arts!" Tang Tian clenched the letter with both hands and said categorically.

"Okay!" Tang Feng also replied dryly.

Since then, Tang Tian has lived in the Chishui City military camp every day.

He swore that he would kill his brother and enemy with his sword, even if the other party was the prince of the Yuan Kingdom!

"Yuanchen, I want you to pay with blood!" Whenever Tang Tian was tired from practicing martial arts, he would come up with this sentence in his heart.

Tang Tian thought back to the past, and didn't know when he had fallen asleep on the eaves.

The white horse passed through the gap, the sun flickered, and the three days passed in a blink of an eye.

The City Lord's Mansion was already overcrowded, and it was the new students recruited by the Dune Academy two days ago, as well as the send-off people from various families.

Two days ago, after the list of new students came out, Tang Feng sent the officials in the government to notify them from door to door.

After all, Tang Tian also went to the academy to report today.

Therefore, Tang Feng arranged for the new students recruited in Chishui City to form a team, which was the practice in previous years.

At this time, there was a lot of noise in front of the mansion, and Tang Feng wore a blue crown and a cyan robe and stepped out of the mansion. Behind him, Tang Tian followed closely behind with a burden.

"See the city lord!"

When everyone saw Tang Feng come out, they all clasped their fists and saluted. Although the voice was bustling and not neat, the respect of everyone for the city lord could be heard from the voice.

Tang Feng hugged his fists, smiled, and arched his hands left and right, which was regarded as a return gift.

Then he cleared his throat and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, today is a good day for my Chishui son to go out to walk the rivers and lakes. ”

"Although I am as strong as a cloud in Chishui City, there are better cultivation conditions outside, so I hope that my Chishui Erlang can ......"

Tang Tian, who was on his side, listened to his father's generous statement, and couldn't help but droop his head for a while.

His father, in this place, in the same place, at the same hour, has been talking for ten years.

Not to mention anything else, since Tang Tian was five years old and sensible, he has also been in this place, in the same place, at the same hour, listening to his father for five years.

Every word, every expression, Tang Tian can simulate it 100%.
