Volume 1 The Beacon Rises in a Troubled World Chapter 2 Descending the Mountain

The afterglow of the setting sun reflected the shadows of the mountains, and a yellowish glow cast over the empty and depressed villages. At the entrance of the village, a young man with a burden on his shoulders closed the wooden door of the village. He looked up at the place where he got along day and night, and seemed to be a little reluctant and lonely. "When the sun sets, the heartbroken man ...... the end of the world"

Along the path down the mountain, Bai Shengpu walked steadily, as if he was used to this steep mountain road. The Martial Domain is next to the Demon Domain and the Sword Domain, and the village happens to be adjacent to the Sword Domain on the edge of the Martial Domain. Cross the forest in front of you, and you will reach the border city of the Sword Domain.

However, Bai Shengpu didn't plan to enter that forest, so he was going to find a place to rest outside, and set off at dawn tomorrow morning, after all, Shenzhou is not only inhabited by humans, nor is it only human beings who are cultivating, such as the Demon Domain Demon Ancestor is the Demon Clan's cultivation master, and even the neighboring Sword Domain Female Sword Master and Dao Domain Dao Ancestor can't help it.

Behind a stone, Bai Shengpu put away the baggage, and in the baggage was the clothes sewn by his mother, but he was reluctant to wear them. Leaning on the stone, Bai Shengpu finally closed his heavy eyelids. He woke up several times in his dreams, and each time he woke up looking for his mother, and then he slapped his head again and fell into a deep sleep.

He had a long dream after that, in which it was a burly man with a stubble on his face and a thin Bai Shengpu. The man smiled and asked, "What's your name?" Bai Shengpu was a little timid and said, "Bai Shengpu." The man then asked, "What would you do if you were given a peerless weapon and a peak cultivation?" Bai Shengpu was pleasantly surprised at first, but then suddenly remembered his mother's words: People should not only be burdened with hatred and resentment, it will crush you, this world is very big, and my mother only hopes that you can live a good life in the future.

So he quickly suppressed his surprise and said: "If I can really have that ability, I will be very happy, because I can avenge my parents, I can help those who are as poor as me, but I hope that I have obtained that ability by my own efforts." The man nodded, and disappeared without further questioning. I saw Bai Shengpu standing in place, crying: "Mother, I may have given up the only chance in my life to take revenge, but I don't regret it, I'm just very sad." ”

The next day, Bai Shengpu opened his eyes and found that he was tied to a rope and hung on a tree.

Bai Shengpu tried to untie the rope, but only caused the branches to tremble. The woman in the purple dress opened her eyes, looked at Bai Shengpu and smiled and groaned, "Wake up?" Bai Shengpu was extremely angry, he was tied up as soon as he came down the mountain, what kind of thing is this, how can anyone die at the beginning of the fledgling? Even if this is an extremely beautiful woman.

He said indignantly: "Why did the girl tie me up?" She said playfully: "Guess what?" Bai Shengpu thought about it, he didn't have much money, except for the dry food and clothes prepared by his mother, he was destitute, could it be a robbery? No, no, although Aunt Xue often praised him for his handsome appearance, and his mother often teased him about this, but he never took it seriously.

Seeing that he hesitated, the woman said to herself: "It's just to attract that big guy with you, otherwise how can I get those refining crystals so easily." Bai Shengpu was expressionless this time, but his heart was full of murderous intent. Do you use people as bait for the sake of some items? In this world, human life is so worthless? Bai Shengpu's heart was even more cold.

The woman saw through what he was thinking, and complained, "Aren't you not dead? Bai Shengpu said indifferently: "Let me go." The woman in the purple dress simply let him down. Bai Shengpu punched at the woman, the woman easily dissolved, stood behind Bai Shengpu and gently patted him on the shoulder, Bai Shengpu quickly turned around and tried to deliver another punch, but the woman was easily dodged. It's like a kitten dancing its teeth and claws in front of a lion and tiger.

"If you do it again, I'll fight back!" The woman said indignantly, this guy has eaten gunpowder? Isn't it just kidnapping him for a night? Bai Shengpu didn't do it anymore, just picked up the burden and left alone. If you can't beat it, you can't beat it, and you can't solve the problem by getting angry, he just hopes that he won't see that woman again. He walked towards the forest, where the beasts seldom came out in the daytime, but he saw the woman following his steps.

Bai Shengpu stopped, turned his head to look at the woman, looked helpless, and said, "What do you want?" The woman raised her eyebrows, yo, she has little ability, and her temper is not small! It seems that Miss Ben needs to teach you how to walk the rivers and lakes! She held down Bai Shengpu's arm and pulled it back, pressed his knee against his back, pressed him to the ground, and snorted heavily.

Bai Shengpu suddenly burst out with a lot of strength, and suddenly turned over and pressed the woman's soft body under him. The current scene is very charming, Bai Shengpu thought that the pent-up anger had exploded for a long time, relying on the current advantage, he kissed the woman in the purple skirt, and before he had time to taste the sweetness of the woman, the woman under him suddenly exerted force, smashed Bai Shengpu to the ground, and lifted him up, and slapped him away. She shouted, "You bastard!" with tears in her eyes.

Bai Shengpu's mind was stunned, and he raised his head, and a moist stream of heat flowed out of his nostrils. After wiping it off in a hurry, he looked at the woman and stopped talking. The sword was unsheathed, the cold light was exposed, and the sword body was on Bai Shengpu's neck. He didn't care, and said, "It's clear, okay?" The woman didn't speak, but the sword body went deep into the flesh and blood, oozing blood. Bai Shengpu smiled: "Or, I promise to each other?" The woman didn't expect that he would dare to laugh at this time, looking at the previous appearance, he was a very serious person. Although the dress is a little shabby, a person's eyes are not deceiving, his eyes are clear and bright.

She dropped a snow-colored crystal and turned away, heading for the Martial Domain. I remember her back trembling as she left, as if she was enduring something. Bai Shengpu shuddered, he was still reckless just now, and he almost planted it. But he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, and if he didn't react at all to an injustice, what was the difference between him and the wooden man?

Bai Shengpu patted his head, and finally remembered that he had forgotten something, forgot to ask the name of the beautiful woman, and he had suffered such a big "loss," but he couldn't find the field? He picked up the crystal on the ground called "Refining Crystal", that woman was dressed extraordinarily, and what passed through her hand would be worse? Besides, it was also the reward for risking his life, and Lao Tzu was almost chewed as food! As soon as he thought of this, Bai Shengpu felt more and more at ease holding the piece of refining crystal.

He packed his bags and headed for the forest. On the way, it seemed to have been cleaned up, and there were some beast corpses around, presumably beheaded by the woman. Therefore, the road is very smooth, and even the poisonous snakes and wild foxes that are common on weekdays are very rare, which can be regarded as an unexpected joy.

As we walked, the vision ahead widened. As far as the eye can see, you can see the majestic border city, but you still have to pass through an empty yellow sand. The autumn wind outside the plug blew on the thin clothes on the young man's body, the straw sandals under his feet stepped on the yellow sand, and the hair on his forehead covered the young man's slightly narrowed eyes. This year, he was fifteen years old.

Strangely, there were few people at the gates today, and the atmosphere was tense, like a sign on the eve of a great war. Bai Shengpu wasted a lot of effort before he made a detour and entered from the east gate. The mountains and rain are coming, the wind is full of buildings, it is another big war, how many soldiers are leaving, and how many families are going to be torn apart...... Bai Shengpu sighed, full of helplessness and worry.
