Chapter 1 The White Family Boy

Next Chapter

Legend has it that there are three realms in this space-time, and although the 'Primordial Realm' is the foundation of the Three Realms, it is also the lowest level of the realm. The ruler of the primordial realm is man, and the other living creatures are animals and plants. As long as it is a living thing, the body can store energy. And among them, those who know how to drive the application of the energy in the body can cultivate.

It is also wonderful to say that the cultivation of human beings in the 'Origin Realm' can only increase energy, but it does not produce a change in order. On the other hand, animals and plants can be cultivated to reach the second level in the original realm, and that is the demon.

Throughout the ages, the powerful human beings have believed that since there are demons, it proves that there must be changes in the level of cultivation on the way. It's just that it's easier to advance demons, and the advancement of humans is not a good way. So there are people constantly trying. However, all the mighty ones are wandering, and there is no evidence that human beings have advanced in this way.

Therefore, in the Origin Realm, there are very few cultivators. For thousands of years, the theme is still rooted in the mutual attack of original sins such as human greed or ambition, the change of dynasties, and the evolution of dynasties.

It is said that in this primordial realm, there is a continent, surrounded by the sea, and its territory is not extremely vast. At present, except for some extremely small forces on the southwest coast, the entire continent is almost completely occupied by three giants.

The eastern part of the central axis of the continent is the largest dynasty "Eastern Song", while the western part of the central axis is the Li dynasty in the northwest, which is known as the "Northern Xia", and the multi-ethnic joint dynasty in the southwest, which is known as the "South Vietnam". The three major dynasties bordered each other, and although there had been friction with each other for three hundred years, they did not have a major war because of the three-legged tripod and controlled each other, which can be regarded as the luck of this side.

In the territory of the Eastern Song Dynasty, Shuying City, an important town in the southwest border. The city lord Bai is in the lineage, hereditary 'Shu Yinghou'. Although he is only a marquis, he is not trivial. Everyone in the court knew that the ancestor of the Bai family was a brother with a different surname who was worshiped by the founding emperor when he was competing for the world.

After the establishment of the dynasty, he asked himself to stay away from the court and guard the frontier. It was based on a fortress that year that built this Shuying City. The original military fortress was rebuilt into the current White House. Emperor Taizu issued an edict that Shuying City was the fiefdom of the Bai family.

In March of another year, the annual "Bird Market" of "Shuying City" opened. This is a major exchange activity for trade and political meetings between countries on the mainland. During the period, there are many wine parties, poetry parties, oiran banquets, lecture halls, etc.

When the market opened, as the bell tower in the city rang three times, the city gate opened at the same time, and the people participating in the grand event began to enter the city one after another. Traditionally, it is essential to collect taxes with clearly marked prices. This is the most important source of income for the Bai family every year. This important task is fully assumed by the Bai family's personal soldier "Xiao Baiwei".

It's not that the Bai Mansion is greedy for money, the emperors of the Eastern Song Dynasty were able to allow such a huge amount of gold and silver to flow directly into the Bai family's private treasury, in fact, because ninety percent of this expenditure will be used for the Bai family's border defense, fortifications and city wall repairs, equipment replacement and replenishment of army supplies. Therefore, the customization of first collecting it into the treasury and then transferring it to the Bai family was abolished, which was also the only special system given by Taizu back then, in addition to improving efficiency and reducing losses, it also reflected Taizu's extreme trust in the Bai family.

Besides, this Bai family's 'Xiao Baiwei' has a staff of 500 people, all of whom are cronies of the Bai family. This is since the Eastern Song Dynasty, Taizu gave an iron scroll, promising the Bai family to have a private armed force. Every year, the income of the "Bird Market" is quite rich, and it is collected by the pro-soldiers, and the Bai family is of course more assured.

From this moment on, businessmen exchanged ideas, politicians intrigued, literati and poured ink, and beauties and prostitutes led the way. Liquor shops, green buildings and other entertainment venues are open all night long, and they are very lively. However, there is a lot of pressure on law and order.

Sure enough, on the second day of the opening of the Bird Market, someone recognized Li Yuanjue, the prince of the neighboring "Northern Xia", wandering in the city.

At the critical moment, fortunately, Bai Qing, the son of Bai Rong, the lord of Shuying City, came to the rescue in time, and shot the assassin in a hundred steps above the watchtower, and was escorted back to China by the Bai family afterwards. If it weren't for that, Li Yuanjue would at least be seriously injured and return to the dynasty.

The Bai family's contribution to avoiding the assassination of the prince of the neighboring country in their own country was also rewarded by the emperor of the Eastern Song Dynasty, the thirteenth grandson of Taizu - His Majesty Yingzong, who gave the Bai family gold, silver and jade silk, and personally soothed the "Jiangmen talents", and made an iron scroll, which was given to Bai Qing, the young man who killed the assassin.

This young master Bai Qing, although he was born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, is not as weak as that weak son. Since childhood, he has been strong and energetic. Coupled with slender limbs and a smart body, he seems to be born with the appearance of a "martial arts wizard". For this reason, the father often invited some martial arts masters, hoping to give his son some guidance.

Maybe the young master of the Bai family is too perceptive, and he often watches those masters play a set of punches, and he can tell the essence of it in public. So far, he has not encountered a martial arts technique that he is willing to refer to, let alone apprentice. Over time, the young master of the Bai family became somewhat famous.

This time, at that critical juncture, he made contributions in public. Bai Qing, who is only twelve years old, can be said to be famous for a while, and he is famous everywhere.

The Bai family, this generation is three brothers, the head of the family Bai Rong is the eldest, that is, Bai Qing's father, and the younger brother is called Bai Li. There is also a child named Mu An, who was picked up and raised by the old city lord.

When the old man saw the child embroidered with a Mu character on the swaddling flannel, he guessed that this was the surname, and because he hoped that he would no longer suffer from displacement in his life, he gave him the name An. From then on, he and his two sons were raised as their own.

The eldest Bai Rong is the best, Mu An likes to study military formations, and Bai Li has no interest in family affairs since he was a child, and likes to shoot and shoot and tinker with various bows and crossbows on weekdays. It's a pity that when he was 13 years old, Bai Li, who was hunting alone, never came back, and the Bai family tried their best to search for it but did not find any trace. After that, the old city lord had no choice but to erect a mound for Bai Li.

After that, Bai Rong gradually grew up, married a wife and had children. His wife, Zhang, had a son named Bai Qing, and Bai Rong later took the daughter of a deceased deputy general, Wang, as a concubine, but did not give birth. The two ladies are reasonable, get along well, and love Bai Qing very much.

According to the tradition of this military heirloom, when a man reaches the age of twelve, he should enter the camp for trials. Bai Qing has reached this age, don't look at the young master's usual life, but he still understands the right and wrong. He also has a high talent for martial arts, and he is very excited about the trial with the army this year.

Bai Rong, as the head of the family, naturally couldn't leave Shuying City without permission. Therefore, the elder who led Bai Qing's trial was Mu An, the second uncle. Bai Qing was even more excited.

Since childhood, this boy has found that the second uncle's armor is not as silver and shiny as his father's armor, the most obvious place is that there is a finger-thick depression on the left side of the iron helmet, and there are many deep marks on the back of the breastplate. There is almost no mirror-like place in the whole set of protectors.

Not to mention the saber, the blade is the blade that is rolled in many places and then sharpened. But it was these traces brought back from the battlefield that made Bai Qing reverent.

Everything is ready, just wait for Bai Qing's thirteenth birthday, and after going to the ancestral hall with his elders to worship his ancestors, he will set off.

After dinner, it didn't take long to fall asleep. To say that he is indeed a young man, it seems that he does not suffer from the results of tomorrow morning, and he sleeps very sweetly after being sleepy.

However, on the day when the young master of the Bai family reached the age of thirteen, a lucky star suddenly flashed in the night sky.

On a stone platform on the top of a mountain, the old Taoist who was sitting here immediately opened his eyes, "Can you really see it in your lifetime?"

In the forest, a middle-aged man raised his eyes to the sky and gradually clenched the strangely shaped bow and crossbow in his hand: "It's time." ”

In the pure land of Buddhism, the old monk with kind eyebrows and kind eyes summoned a delicate-looking little mass, and when he stood in front of the seat, he said to the little monk: "From tomorrow, you will start to enter the refining tower." ”

There is no one in the open sea, and the black and thin man scratched the hair of the little boy beside him: "My clan is blessed by the immortals, and I will bring my descendants to wait here, you must remember that we have been waiting for the mountains and forests here for generations, until... ”

A hidden place, filled with smoke. The little girl looked at the necklace her mother gave her in amazement, the crystal drop pendant had been shining brightly since just now, and only now did it gradually fade away. The mother looked at the star in the night sky and embraced the girl in her arms dotingly. Tell her about the prophecy of the tribe, in which the beautiful girl will fall in love with the boy with the star in his hand, and when the boy approaches, the pendant on the girl's necklace will shine as brightly as it does tonight.

In the early morning of the next day, Er Bo Mu'an went to the barracks early and ordered the 200 cavalry of Xiao Baiwei, and he came back as soon as he went. Subsequently, after Bai Qing said goodbye to his mother and second mother, he went out of the city with his father and second uncle, surrounded by two hundred white guards.

He sent Bai Qing to the eighteen-mile shop outside the city, and his father led his soldiers back to the city.

On the way here, his father told Bai Qing that according to the plan, he would first go to the nearest 'Yangping Pass' to join the army, and then it would be arranged by Er Bo Mu'an.

Looking at Bai Rong and leaving, Mu Anzema walked to Bai Qing's side.

"Qing'er, this is to join the army, you change into this outfit first, let's set off again!"

Changing into the single-clothed rattan armor prepared by Mu An, he rode his horse and followed behind Mu An, and more than 200 people galloped towards the southwest.

Since then, Shuying City has lost a young master of Baifu. By General Mu'an's side, there was an extra young guard.
