Mixed Yuan Continent, a hidden family, a night family

A teenager was sitting under a dead tree with a tattered book in his hand, chanting what was written in his mouth.

"There is a fish in the North Underworld, and its name is Kun. The Kun is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is, and it turns into a bird, its name is Peng, and it flies angrily, and its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky. It's a bird, too, and the sea ......"

“...... The water hits 3,000 miles, and the one who sways up is 90,000 miles, and he goes to ...... in June."

"If the husband takes advantage of the righteousness of heaven and earth, and the change of the six qis, he will swim in the infinite ......"

......

After a long time, the boy closed the book, exhaled, and then grasped the sword lying beside him, and began to swing the sword in his hand according to his heart.

In the eyes of others, although the moves and styles of this nameless sword style seem simple, it gives people an indescribable meaning.

Thinking about it, it has been almost sixteen years since I came to this strange world, and it will be my coming-of-age ceremony soon, even if I am reborn, my love for swords has never changed.

Looking at the swordsmanship in his own library, the essence of it has long been clear in his heart, but he always feels a sense of unsmoothness, and after thinking hard for a year, he realized his own set of swordsmanship in the basic swordsmanship. Since then, the sword has been unimpeded, and the mind is clear.

But today is the last day to practice swordsmanship here, and I used to think that it would be a good life if I could be like this for the rest of my life, but life is like this, and the more you want to get it, the harder it will be for you to get it.

Who called me the son of the four elders of the night family, the eldest young master of the night family, who can't practice the exercises of the night family without the affinity of the stars?

In the past ten years in the night family, he has been teased and humiliated by his peers in the night family for more than ten years.

In the Mixed Yuan Continent, most of the martial artists practice with aura, and most of the aura attributes are divided into five elements and mutated aura attributes, and a very small number of martial artists do not practice with aura, but rely on the natural power inherited from their ancestors to practice. And the star affinity is the latter.

Xingchen affinity is the unique talent of the Ye family, and it is also the foundation of the practice of the Ye family's supreme exercises, the Thousand Nights Heart Canon, in the eyes of many people in the Ye family, the children of the Ye family without the affinity of the stars are not real children of the Ye family at all. At the same time, this is also one of the most fundamental reasons why the night family can become a hidden family.

Although the Ye family is a hidden family, it still has a family industry, otherwise what can be used to support so many people in the Ye family?

Therefore, the children of the family who do not have the affinity of the stars in the night family, after the coming-of-age ceremony at the age of sixteen, will be arranged to the periphery of the family to help take care of the family industry.

At the same time, the people of the outer clans are not allowed to walk in the world as children of the Ye family outside, after all, the hidden family cannot meddle in the affairs of the world on the surface.

The bigger the family, the more indifferent the family affection is, this is the most profound truth that Ye Ling felt after coming to this world, you are in a high position and seem to have unlimited scenery, but in fact you are helpless.

Because you have to climb up, and if you don't climb up, someone will naturally step on you and climb up, and at the same time, kick you to the bottom.

So my father was strong and I was weak, so I became a breakthrough for those who were secretly targeting my father to bring down my father.

"Huh, let's stop here today, it's time to meet my father", thinking of this, Ye Ling also stopped.

Then he danced a sword flower, returned the sword to its scabbard, looked back at the book placed under the dead tree, shook his head, and walked down the gravel road without looking back.

In the evening, night home

After returning to his room, washing up, tidying up his clothes a little, and placing the sword on the sword rack with five swords of different lengths, Yeling came to the hall, only to see Yexiong leaning on the main seat with his eyes closed, not knowing what he was thinking.

Ye Ling stepped forward and stood still, then bowed slightly, and saluted forward, "Father, the child has something to discuss."

Yexiong opened his eyes, and instead of answering, he asked, "Ling'er, have you ever complained about me since you came over these ten years?"

Ye Ling raised his head and calmly looked at Ye Xiong's vicissitudes of life and deep eyes, "Yes, but when I figured it out, I didn't think so; ”

Seeing that Yexiong didn't speak, Yeling continued: "The child's intention to do this, the child can probably guess, if the father doesn't do this, I'm afraid the child will already die in the hands of those who are against the father in the Ye family, and the child still wants to see what the world outside the Ye family is like, and he doesn't want to die in the hands of his own people in vain, hehe, otherwise he will really be blind for the rest of his life." Speaking of this, Ye Ling couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and pretend to be relaxed.

Hearing this, Yexiong looked at Yeling and couldn't stop feeling heartache. Although he is strong and can protect him for a while, he can't protect him for a lifetime, and it is easy to dodge the open gun and difficult to defend against the hidden arrow; it is better to let him go out and fight by himself, at least he has to choose whether to die or live.

Thinking of this, Yexiong suddenly made a decision.

"Well, what do you want to do?" Yexiong understood that Yeling did not come this time to ask for his consent or not, let alone to ask him to help him, but to say goodbye to himself, although the father and son had not spoken in the past ten years, Yexiong knew his son very well.

Ye Ling's eyes were slightly closed, and he was silent for a while, "Father, when you continue to suffer from it, please ask your father to ......"

"Hmph, bastard, big rebellion. ”

"Bang", before Ye Ling finished speaking, Ye Xiong waved a strong wind with his backhand and slapped Ye Ling on the chest, Ye Ling immediately flew out of the hall and landed in front of the stairs at the entrance of the hall.

Poof, Yeling clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of reverse blood. Then he slowly stood up.

"Come on, drag this rebel down on me and put him in a dark prison."

"The wood of the hug is born in the end of the millimeter, the nine-story platform starts from the soil, the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and you don't even understand this truth, you will die in it for Lao Tzu!"

Ye Ling was dragged away by two guards and thrown into the dark prison.

"Alas, pitiful. ”

"Let's go, let's go, don't be pitiful, go back quickly, if it's late, go back and wait to be beaten." ”

After the two guards left, Ye Ling first checked his injuries and found that he was fine, but felt that his body was much lighter than before.

Shaking his head, after almost getting used to the environment of the dark prison, he groped in the dark prison, and after a while, Ye Ling had a rough outline in his heart.

This dark prison, about one zhang wide and three zhang long, except for the door, there is a pillar in the middle of the other three walls, about six feet wide, but only half of it is exposed outside the wall, and there are carved ornamental patterns on it, and it is necessary to draw a picture in your mind with the feeling that comes from your hand, and then you can determine what kind of ornamental pattern it is.

So Ye Ling carefully touched the three pillars with his hand again, and the patterns of these three pillars were the same, but the patterns were incomprehensible.

In the picture, a snake is wrapped around a tree with all its leaves gone, and below the tree are fallen leaves, and then up is a sword-wielding man standing above auspicious clouds, night on the left and day on the right, but with his back to himself.

The first thing that can be determined is that the exit must be somewhere in here, and secondly, this is also his last way, Yexiong will not let himself out, and at the same time, this is also a test for Yexiong to himself, rather than being slaughtered outside, it is better for Yexiong to do it himself.

I can clearly hear my own heartbeat here, and even the faint sound of breathing is amplified countless times here, and at the same time, in this completely dark environment, as time passes, my senses will be slowly taken away by the darkness, leaving little time for me.

There is no difference between opening his eyes here and closing his eyes, Ye Ling simply closed his eyes and began to think on his own, at first Ye Ling was able to calm down and think, relying on his own will not to let the negative emotions that breed in his heart disturb his thoughts, but as time passed, Ye Ling gradually became agitated and angry, mixed with a little helplessness and despair, and finally Ye Ling collapsed.

He began to scratch and pound the walls, even if his hands were fleshy and bloody, he did not stop venting and roaring, allowing these emotions in his heart to dominate his mind and body.

After venting, he gasped for air, and the pain from his hands continued to stimulate Yeling's already fragile spirit.

"It seems that I can't get out, this dark place in front of me is really annoying", Ye Ling leaned softly against the wall behind him, and for the first time felt how wonderful it was to be able to see the light, and he couldn't help but think in his heart.

As he slowly closed his eyes, his mind involuntarily flashed the last light before the door of the dark prison closed.

Wait, light? At this time, Ye Ling's mind flashed with inspiration, as if he had thought of something.

If this idea is true, then combined with the hints given by Yexiong, the answer is self-evident, anyway, a dead horse is a live horse doctor, how to know if it's right if you don't try.

Thinking of this, Ye Ling hurriedly moved, and he didn't care about the pain in his hands, and began to grope on the pillar behind him, "The wood of the hug, born in the end of the millennium", wood, meaning leaves, the light finally disappears in the middle, and the last leaf, then the mechanism is the lowest leaf in the middle of these leaves.

"Click" Sure enough, this last leaf is the mechanism, after the mechanism is activated, the pillar in front of Ye Ling's body, began to fall, and after a while, Ye Ling appeared in front of a stone step, and came to the end of the stone steps, where there was a portrait of a woman, and there was a desk under the painting, on which lay a sword, and next to the sword there was a dragon jade pendant.

Thinking that the woman in this painting should be her mother Ling, who had long since died, and her mother died not long after giving birth to herself, and she had never seen her mother's appearance, so she was able to see it in this way today, and after bowing to her mother's portrait three times, she took the sword and jade pendant on the table.

At the same time, an energy portal appeared on the wall to the left side of the desk, and Ye Ling glanced back at her mother's portrait before stepping into the door and disappearing into it.

At this time, in the study, there is also a portrait of an identical woman, sitting at the desk Ye Xiong looked up in the direction where Ye Ling disappeared, Ye Xiong spread out his right hand, and lay quietly in the palm of his hand A phoenix jade pendant, thinking that this phoenix jade pendant should be a pair of dragon jade pendants on Ye Ling's body.

"Lan, Ling'er left the Ye family with the sword you left for him as you expected", Ye Xiong got up, turned around and looked at the portrait of his deceased wife hanging in the study, falling into memory.

For a long time, "Someone." ”

Hearing the voice, a maid came in, "What does the master command?"

"Ask Uncle Liu to help me pass a message to the Great Elder, saying that my love Zhong Yeling has unfortunately passed away, and I need to go out to relax, so I won't go to the family meeting in a month. ”

"No", the maid retreated.

The study fell silent.

Conference Hall

All the elders of the night family sat here, but the seats of the four elders were empty.

The Great Elder Ye Qian looked at everyone, "The Fourth Elder has lost his beloved son, according to the news I just received, the Fourth Elder has left the family now, but the specific location is not known yet, and the family meeting in a month will definitely not be able to participate, but what do you think about this matter?"

"Hmph, what else can you see, his son doesn't even have the affinity for the stars, and he deserves to be called the Ye family? Besides, I heard that it was his son who didn't know what to say to his son, so angry that he put his son in a dark prison, and then I went to take a look, tsk, it was a miserable, there was blood everywhere, it was too miserable. The man shook his head as he spoke, looking like he was gloating.

"Ye Yunfeng, how can you say that, even if Ye Ling doesn't have the affinity for the stars, don't forget that his surname is Ye, what's the matter, the outer clansmen are not the Ye family? Do you dare to say what you just said to the outer clansmen?" At this time, the one who was standing and was pointing his finger at the five elders was the sixth elder Ye Xuan, who had a good relationship with Ye Xiong on weekdays.

"You ......"

For a while, the scene was very lively, and all the elders insisted on their own words, and they were inextricably fighting.

Looking at these in front of him, the Great Elder couldn't help but hold his forehead with his right hand.

"Bang" Suddenly, the Great Elder's right hand slapped vigorously on the table, stopping the endless argument in front of him, "Enough, I'm not here to listen to your argument here today, but to ask you who is willing to take over the affairs of the four elders at the next month's family meeting."

"There is another thing you have to remember that whether it is a member of the outer clan or an inner clan, you are all surnamed Ye, and you are all the bloodline of the ancestors of the Ye family. The Great Elder squinted slightly at the elders sitting in front of him.

"Great Elder, Ye Xuan is willing to do his part for the family" The speaker was none other than the Sixth Elder Ye Xuan.

The Great Elder nodded, looking around at everyone, "Do you have any objections?"

Seeing that the other elders had no objections, "Okay, this matter is settled, then let's disperse today, I hope you can do it yourself." ”
