Chapter 4 Selling Yourself to Bury Your Father
As soon as the voice fell, a rusty double-edged black halberd not far from the dog's side trembled, and a stream of light wrapped it and slowly rose into the air.
"I have been sleeping for tens of thousands of years, and today you wake me up, it is fate, you have an innate demon body, and I am a match made in heaven. ”
"Young man, do you dare to fight with me in the world!"
The innate demon body, the demon halberd has existed for millions of years since its birth, and it is only the second time it has been encountered, it has been silent for too long, so long that it has forgotten what year it is, and it has witnessed the changes of several eras and several eras.
The innate demon blood has an incomparable repercussion on any monster, and now the dog's blood is splashed on its halberd body, and after it wakes up and discovers the existence of the dog, it has a heart of love.
It has been silent for tens of thousands of years, not because it is trapped by the demon cave on this mountain, but because of the entire divine wilderness, and no one is qualified to reappear in the world with it.
The dog was distracted, staring blankly at the black halberd flying in the air, his expression was dull, and he forgot to answer for a while.
"Young man, would you like to start a round of demon stories with me, I guarantee that your story and my story will become legends!" Seeing this, the demon halberd let out a trembling sound, and asked again, for the young man in front of him with an innate demon body, it was bound to win.
Today's scene has already washed away the dog's understanding, and he has just encountered the pain of losing his father, and the sudden mysterious halberd at this moment made him think about it. But when he heard the word story, he was shocked, and Xu Xu's dying words seemed to still echo in his mind.
"How long will our story last?" asked the dog, stunned.
"Heaven and earth do not exist, and the universe ends. ”
Hearing the answer of the demon halberd, the dog, who was originally blank and his face was full of decadence, was shocked in his heart, and his face gradually regained his vitality.
"Won't it end?"
No matter how bland or intense, the story of you and me will never end. Eternity does not exist, you and I are there!"
"I promise you, fight the world together and write the gods!"
Although Xu Xu had instructed him before, the dog responded with a firm expression at this time, took a few steps forward, and firmly grasped the halberd pole with his right hand.
I'm sorry, Dad, but let my son disobey one last time.
"Then I'll pass it on to you now, my Heavenly Nine Directions Void Halberd exists in the long years of the supreme martial arts "True Demon Decision"!"
"Wait, I have more important things to do now. ”
Just when the Heavenly Nine Fang Void Halberd wondered what was more important than cultivation, the dog carried the late Xu Xu on his back, fortunately, although the demon halberd looked very heavy, it was much lighter than the ordinary iron sword, and the dog carried Xu Xu on his back, and he could still hold the magic halberd with one hand.
"By the way, what should I call my seniors?"
"Title...... It's been too long, so you can call me Lao Xu. ”
"Well, I remember!" Gouzi secretly engraved the random name of this Heavenly Nine Directions Void Halberd in his heart, when he was most desperate in his life, it was Lao Xuan who gave him light, and gave him the courage to look at the world with his heart like ashes!
Soon after, a strange boy appeared in the Rain City, he was dressed in rags, his face was yellow and thin, dragging a wooden plank connected by a rope, on which lay a humanoid thing covered with bedding, and he pulled the rope that drove the plank on his left shoulder, but carried a long object wrapped in white cloth on his right shoulder, which was the Heavenly Nine Directions Void Halberd.
At this moment, the dog's already hungry face was a little pale, his forehead was covered with dense sweat, obviously he was already weak, and he was very difficult to pull the plank, but his face was calm and he just pulled hard, to go to the prosperous area.
Pointing and talking along the way is naturally indispensable, but more often than not, it is a different kind of discussion.
"Have you heard? I don't know what happened on the Cloud Mountain, there are a lot of strange huge traces, I heard that they were left by the strong fight!"
Passing by a teahouse, I heard the voice of a man in cloth from a distance.
"How is it possible? I don't believe it anyway, if that kind of scene is man-made, what kind of character is it? At least it can easily trample on our Rain City. Another middle-aged man in dark blue retorted.
"Hearing you say this, have you ever seen the traces on the Cloud Mountain?"
"That's it, I passed by Zhuyun Mountain before, and when I saw the movement, I was curious to go up and take a look, and I want to say, a reliable statement, or caused by the rain of weapons!"
"Weapon rain?"
"That's right! As soon as I went up, I saw a rain of weapons falling from the sky, and it almost didn't stab me to death, so I quickly ran down the mountain. And after I left, even from a long distance, I could hear a loud noise on the Cloud Turning Mountain, which was really scary! After the sound stopped, I went up and looked again, only weapons and countless huge traces were all over the ground. ”
"You're lying, aren't you?
"Don't believe it, I still have a lot of weapons I picked up at home, if you really don't believe it, just hurry up and go to the cloud mountain to see, there are too many weapons that have fallen, and you should be able to pick up some weapons now, and they will be picked up by others later." ”
Hearing these discussions, the dog's expression was unwavering, and there was no wave in his heart.
And the Demon Cave on the mountain is actually a huge cave formed by a magic circle, because the Demon Dao is too powerful and unorthodox, so there seem to be some Demon Cave in all parts of the Divine Wilderness.
The monsters discarded inside will be destroyed, except of course, for existences like Lao Xu. If it hadn't been in a semi-sleepy state and had no desire to resist, the aura it emitted at that time would have been enough to turn ordinary people into powder.
The rain of weapons that broke out in the Turning Cloud Mountain today, I am afraid that those warriors who were devoured by the demonic beasts touched some kind of prohibition in the Demon Elimination Cave, so that the magic weapons of those Demon Elimination Caves erupted from it, and under the consumption of countless years in the Demon Elimination Cave, they have become ordinary iron weapons.
And although it is impossible for the old void to be destroyed by a small demon cave, after all, it has been consumed by the magic circle of the demon cave for tens of thousands of years, and its magic power is no longer a hundred.
As a magic weapon, it is extremely difficult to recover its magic power without some special methods, and there is only one way to recover its power, and that is to follow the powerful master.
After walking a long distance, the dog finally came to the bustling area near the center of Rainy City, where almost all the people on the street were dressed in extraordinary clothes, and the shops gradually became more and more upscale.
The dog found a corner of the street, dragged the plank in front of him and sat down on the ground, exhaled a few breaths, gasped for a moment, and then took out a piece of rotten cloth from inside his clothes, on which were written four crooked characters in coal.
Sell yourself to bury your father!
The dog is weak and poor, even if he wants to dig a pit to bury Xu Xu by himself, he can't do it, with his body, dig a pit that is enough for people to lie flat, and without tools, it will take at least five days, he doesn't want to watch his father stink.
Thinking about this, the dog's heart was full of bitterness, his father Xu Xu was such a strong man, he couldn't figure out why he was in such a situation, he didn't teach his son to practice martial arts, and asked him to be an ordinary person to spend his life in peace.
Nowadays, there is constant infighting between the Emperor and the Four Kings of the Xuanling Empire, and there are also people from outside the territory who are troubled, and in recent years, it has happened that natural disasters have continued. Therefore, the country can be described as in dire straits, the people are struggling to make a living, and the originally strong families are also in decline.
Otherwise, with Gouzi and Xu Xu, two able-bodied people with hands and feet, how could they be reduced to going up the mountain to dig yams in exchange for some money that can't even fill their stomachs.
The dog's thin body looks very weak, so naturally no one will accept him for work, but this is a prosperous area after all, and the gentry passing by may be willing to help him when they see him pitiful.
The dog now has no choice but to do this, all he needs is a coffin for burial and some helpers.
"You don't have to. At this time, the old void lying flat on his thigh was also unbearable, what a humiliation it was for a man to sell himself, and the dog only had to exchange for a coffin at such a meager price at the moment.
Hearing the old voice in his head, the dog was unmoved, and closed his eyes to buffer his mind.
Passers-by were unbearable when they saw the dog, and those who saw the wooden plank in front of the dog were covered by bedding shook their heads and sighed.
"Alas, this is not the first time that the world is desolate. ”
Passers-by thought that the dog's father was starving to death, and they shook their heads and sighed, but no one wanted to come forward to help the dog. In this world, where do they get the kindness to help others? The weak body of the dog seems to be blown down by the wind, even if it is taken home, it is useless.
Feeling the gaze coming and going, the dog's expression did not change, just quietly waited cross-legged.
Just a moment later, the pedestrians on the road suddenly gave way one after another, and when they looked around, it turned out to be a convoy of people coming in a hurry.
In front of them, three dragons with golden scales opened the way, and in the middle sat a man with a majestic face, thirty or forty years old, with the aura of a superior person.
Behind was a white-gold, noble carriage about the size of a third of a small room.
And the curtain of the carriage happened to be pulled up at this time, revealing a girl's face full of soft beauty, with skin like clotted fat and moth eyebrows, this is a delicate girl who can't extricate herself at a glance.
"It's the Bai family's convoy, the Bai family is back from visiting relatives. ”
"Yes, this battle is really magnificent. If nothing else, that one golden-scaled dragon beast is enough to cover half of my family's property. ”
"Speaking of which, I'm very strange about what kind of powerful relatives can make the Bai family visit relatives. ”
"That's none of your business. ”
Seeing this, the dog just glanced at it and withdrew his gaze, and continued to close his eyes to recuperate, from a series of incidents in the Cloud Mountain to now, he is already very tired. No matter how noble and dazzling the team is, it has nothing to do with him.
And when the girl in the carriage was about to take her head back into the car, she happened to see the dog sitting cross-legged on the ground, and she looked at the dog with her eyes closed and not moving, and a deep pity flashed in her eyes.
"Miss, Miss, what are you going to do?"
I saw that the girl jumped out of the carriage directly in the amazed eyes of everyone, she was wearing a long dress with light pink and white, tattooed with a petal, and her delicate figure caused a burst of exclamations.
A beautiful girl with a noble status and luxuriously dressed carried a long skirt and walked quickly to the ragged dog, which surprised a group of passers-by.
She glanced at the rags on the side of the dog, on which were written the words "Selling and Burying Father".
"Young man, I can help you bury your late father, are you willing to come to my Bai family to serve? I only need you to serve in my Bai Mansion for a year, and when the year is better, you can leave at any time." Of course, if you want to continue to stay in Baifu, I will not refuse. She pursed her lips and said to the dog, her voice as clear as a silver bell, gentle as a breeze on her cheeks.
The dog opened his eyes when he heard the sound and hurriedly got up, he was a little excited in his heart, there was such a good thing.
"Boy, thank you for your great kindness, Miss! I am willing to serve the Baifu for a year!" the dog bowed slightly to the girl, and sincerely thanked him.
And when others heard this, they all pouted slightly, and the dog actually added a year to his words, what a miracle it was for him to be able to enter Baifu, he really just wanted to stay in Baifu for a year.
But how can they understand the heart of a dog if they disdain it?
"What is your name, boy?" the girl suddenly asked the dog.
"Name?" This made the dog stunned, he has been called a dog for more than ten years.
"If Miss doesn't dislike it, just call me a dog. ”
This made passers-by laugh, this can also be considered a name?
"I'm talking about your name!" the girl said with some coquettishness.
Since I don't know when, he has been called Gouzi, and at this moment he was suddenly asked for his name, and Gouzi also fell into memories and remembered his name.
"In the next, the surname is Xu, and the name is Ling. ”
"Good name, Xu Ling Xu Ling, a martial path, Xu Erlingzhi! My name is Bai Xiaomu, you have to remember it." ”
Xu Ling showed an inexplicable smile, nodded at Bai Xiaomu and said, "Miss praised it falsely, I must remember Miss's name in the future." ”
He is holding a demon halberd, bleeding demon blood, he is born a demon, it should be a demon path, Xu Erling!
