Standing above the sea by day.

Storms raged across the sea, looming black mountains loomed.

Flocks of black seabirds form dark clouds that hover in the gray sky.

Then a giant bolt of lightning tore through the sky and lit up the world.

The true appearance of the giant mountain was revealed in the light of lightning, and tens of millions of writhing human bodies formed the mountain.

Daylight instantly felt breathless.

With a bang!! the mountain disintegrated and collapsed, and those people fell into the sea like dumplings.

The splash is like a layer of goosebumps on the surface of the skin, which is so dense that it makes the scalp tingle.

Suddenly, something grabbed Bai Day's ankle and dragged him into the icy bottom of the sea, no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't break free and kept sinking.

He looked up in despair, and the lightning struck through the black rumbling depths, refracting a strange light.

The corpses above his head were piled up more and more, and the bright light of lightning could drop tiny beams through the gaps between the corpses.

Until the sea is completely sealed by corpses, and the surroundings are darkened.

It's a dream!!

Daylight's thoughts gradually became clearer, and he knew that it was a dream, and instinctively opened his mouth to shout.

It doesn't matter if he opens his mouth, the sea water around him seems to have found a vent, and it keeps drilling into his throat.

The painful feeling was so real that I was suffocated immediately, and I knew it was a dream, but I couldn't wake up.

A pair of hands colder than the sea gently strangled Bai Day's neck from behind.

A familiar and unfamiliar voice sounded in my ears. "I'm waiting for you here, son. ”

Who are you??

At this time, countless black frightened birds squeezed into the bottom of the sea from the gaps in the corpses on the surface of the sea, like bubble spears piercing in.

Seeing the appearance of the blackbird in the daytime, doubts appeared in my heart.

Will there be crows on the sea? Can crows swim?

The next moment, the sharp front beak slammed into his eyes.

......

The day woke up suddenly, in a cold sweat, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of transparent fog, and he couldn't see it, he blinked hard, and it was still like that.

It took a long time for vision to return to normal.

He was in a strange environment, the house was simple and cramped, with a bed, a chair, and nothing else.

There is a wooden board on the left wall, on which are placed three spirit tablets, which are a little crazy.

He swept his gaze and didn't deliberately look at the name on the spirit card.

Through the window, you can see a huge birdcage in the distance.

Daylight breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that he was at the beast camp, which was supposed to be the beast tamer's hut.

Then something came to mind, and there were words in my mouth. "The nightmare dissipates!

The dark blood stains stained the white bandage, and the memories of yesterday were intermittent.

Daylight thought of the animal tamer first, and it was the animal tamer who brought him back and took care of the wound, and the ointment applied under the bandage exuded a hint of coolness.

Then he remembered the humiliating battle of yesterday, and the sword shattered his pride.

He is too arrogant, and when Jian Li hurts him, he should understand that the other party is not an ordinary person.

The result was a complete defeat, leaving only humiliation.

The small wounds on his body were itching while healing, and he wanted to get up during the day, and when he moved slightly, he pulled a few deep wounds, grinning in pain.

Daylight took a deep breath and repeated it a few times, but still sat up.

His hand pressed against a hard object, the Calamity Sword.

The hollowed-out wooden scabbard exuded a mysterious beauty, and the hollow eyes of the calamity dog on the handle looked at him.

Is that a look of pity?

He covered the head of the plague dog with a quilt.

The sword was not for nothing, and he remembered that he had briefly sobered up when the animal trainer had sent him back, and that the animal trainer had made a request at that time.

Because the Queen of the Plague Dog is ranked first in the Blood Trial, as long as the challenge is successful, she can go to the treasure room and choose two treasures as a reward.

The tamer's request was to help him take out one of the treasures.

According to the animal trainer, it was an innocuous thing, a wooden doll, mentioned many times before the animal tamer's grandfather died, it was an ancestral thing, and it had a deep meaning.

Everyone who passes the Blood Trial has a clear goal before entering the treasure room, and no one will help the beast tamer take out a useless thing.

The beast trainer waited a long time, and could only pin his hopes on Bai Day, who challenged the Queen of the Plague Dogs.

There was no reason to refuse the beast trainer's request, and the other party helped him a lot, even if he did it with a purpose, all he asked for was a wooden doll.

"How do I find exactly what you're looking for?" asked Daylight as he remembered it.

The trainer took out a ring and stuffed it into Daylight's pocket. "Wear it and you can find it. ”

"Okay, I'll help you. Daylight agreed without even thinking about it, he owed the animal trainer a favor.

Right now, Bai Bai touched his pocket, and there was indeed a ring.

It's just that the animal trainer doesn't know where to go.

Daylight grabbed the Calamity Sword and dragged his bruised body out of the Beast Tamer's hut.

The dazzling sunlight made his eyes dazed again, and he squinted his eyes until he got used to the strong light, and walked step by step in the direction of the sword training tree.

Near the village, you can hear the lively cheers.

He remembered that today was a birth festival, so there was no need to train.

The Sword Clan attaches great importance to the traditional birth festival.

Daylight remembers that his father said that more than 20 years ago, a plague took the lives of many people, including his grandparents.

When the epidemic was not over and people were still immersed in grief and could not extricate themselves, another natural disaster was followed by a grain harvest.

The hoarded food was simply not enough for daily consumption, the beasts of the forest sea hid in the depths, and it was difficult for the best hunters to catch them, and this phenomenon lasted for a whole decade.

At that time, life was very hard, and many people starved to death, which dealt a great blow to the entire sword clan.

So a new life is crucial, and a newborn represents hope and a future.

The Nativity Festival has become more solemn ever since.

Daylight followed the noise to the open space in front of the chamber.

The place has changed its appearance, lanterns are hung high, streamers are fluttering, high platforms have been built, and more than a dozen round tables have been filled.

Squeeze into a table casually during the day, and at this time, don't eat for nothing.

On the high platform, the Orion Sword Chu Feng in the clan was performing a hundred steps through Yang.

The arrow left the string and hit the center of the circle, in exchange for bursts of applause.

Orion shouted proudly, "Come up, son, your father is going to perform even more powerful tricks." ”

Jian Fenghua walked up to the stage with an apple on his head helplessly and stopped in front of the arrow target.

"Daddy, be precise. Before he could finish speaking, his father drew his bow and arrow, and in one go, the arrow passed through the apple and inserted it into the center of the target.

The crowd erupted in louder applause, and Orion bowed with his bewildered son in his arms.

Bai Bai couldn't help but laugh when he saw it, is this biological?

To Bai Day's surprise, Jian Yusheng also performed.

Jian Yusheng dressed up, stroked the piano and sang, and the song "Wind Yin" sounded down, and the whole world was quiet.

After that, there were singing, chanting, and sword dancing, but they were not so amazing in his eyes.

From time to time, people shuttled between the round tables, serving plates of delicacies.

During the day, the dishes on this table have been stacked on three floors, like a crumbling tower.

The day is boring, just waiting for the birth festival to start soon, recently I have consumed too much energy, shed too much blood, and need to eat a lot to make up for it.

In the afternoon, the old patriarch Jian Qian appeared in everyone's sight, announcing the official start of the birth sacrifice.

The old patriarch was dressed in a set of solemn clothes that could only be seen during festivals, and he held a bronze ruler sword that symbolized justice, and two elders stood behind him.

After a lengthy speech, when it was time for the elders to bless them, the women appeared with their newborns in their arms.

The sword-wielding elder Jian Fenglei took the bronze ruler sword, dipped it in paint with the handle, and printed it on the newborn's feet, representing a strong physique.

The punishment elder Jian Li tied a colored rope for each newborn to represent safety.

In the end, the old patriarch died with a sword that replaced the absent sword, and gently brushed it on the newborn with a water-soaked sycamore branch, representing the removal of all diseases.

The blessing ended, and the day was drowned out by high cheers.

He was inevitably disappointed, and his father should have been among them.

He didn't listen to the rest of the story, and turned his attention to the table full of delicacies.
