Qin Shijie's family finished lunch in a warm atmosphere.

By the time we got up for the lunch break, the sun had already set in the west. And Qin Shijie took a lunch break and found that his father had continued to repair the fence wall in the backyard.

Qin Shijie shouted at his father's back: "Dad, I'm going to the back mountain to carry bamboo~"

"Oh, stay safe, go early and come back early. Qin Chuangmin replied.

Just as Qin Shijie was about to walk out of the courtyard gate, two crisp shouts came to mind: "Brother, brother!"

As soon as Qin Shijie heard the voice, he knew that it was the voice of his younger brother and sister. He turned his head and smiled and asked, "What's wrong, is there anything wrong with you?"

"Brother, are you going to the back mountain now?" asked his younger brother Qin Shixin.

Qin Shijie replied: "Yes, my brother is going to the back mountain to carry the bamboo back, and my father is waiting for the bamboo to be used." ”

"Then when you go to the back mountain, can you ....... help us pick some sweet bells and come back?" said her sister Qin Meixiang next to her.

Sweet and sour wild fruit, the size of a thumb, the color of blue and red, the full ripe is dark red, the ripening season is summer, and now it is just the ripening season. There are many of these wild fruits in the mountains behind Qinjia Village. This kind of wild fruit is easy to obtain for children from poor families, and it is the best fruit to satisfy cravings.

Hearing his sister's words, Qin Shijie smiled slightly and said, "It's greedy~ Okay, brother, wait a minute, I'll help you pick some in the back mountain, and you can wait at home." ”

"Yay~ Brother is the best!" The younger brothers and sisters jumped up happily when they heard Qin Shijie's words.

After speaking, Qin Shijie walked out of the house, bypassed the yard, and walked into the woods in the back mountain. Near the back mountain of Qinjia Village, there is a dense forest, which was planted by the ancestors of Qinjia Village to build houses and other materials in the future. The woods are so large that you need to go around two ravines to get through.

After passing through this forest, you will truly enter the back mountain range. The back mountain ridge is undulating, and the more you enter the mountain range, the more lush the woods become. In the southwest direction directly behind Qinjia Village, near the primeval mountain forest, there is a verdant bamboo forest. Qin Chuangmin cut down the bamboo in this bamboo forest.

The back mountain range of Qinjia Village is the end of the remaining veins of the 60,000 mountain branches, and the end of the remaining veins forms this small mountain village here.

At this time, Qin Shijie continued to move towards the bamboo forest along the path between the mountains. Although there are many spirit beasts in the 60,000 mountains, and fierce beasts are everywhere, the back mountain of Qinjia Village is only the end of the remaining veins, so there are basically no large fierce beasts in ordinary times, not even ordinary large beasts. Only a few small beasts will appear.

Therefore, the villagers of Qinjia Village are still very relieved that the young people in the village are entering the Houshan Ridge, but children are still not allowed to enter the Houshan Ridge.

The surrounding woods are tall and luxuriant, even the weeds are waist-deep, and the path meanders only through the bottom of a ditch between the mountains.

After walking for two quarters of an hour, Qin Shijie had already walked to the edge of the bamboo forest. At the edge of the bamboo forest, five bundles of freshly cut bamboo are stacked neatly together.

Qin Shijie lifted a bundle of bamboo and tried the weight, but the raw bamboo was still very heavy. But because Qin Shijie has learned to nourish his body with aura in the school in recent years, his body is still very strong, and Qin Shijie did not say anything big in front of his father.

Without further ado, just do it, Qin Shijie bent down slightly, threw a bundle of bamboo on his back, and walked back after taking a step.

After going back and forth like this four times, Qin Shijie carried four bundles of bamboo home, he was really tired enough, and an hour and a half had passed. At this time, Qin Shijie stood in front of the last bundle of bamboos and gasped slightly, and was about to carry it.

At this time, he suddenly patted his head and said secretly: "I almost forgot, the sweet bell has not been picked yet!" As he spoke, he walked up the soil ridge next to him.

It grows on the sunny southern slope and must have direct sunlight, and the plant is no more than adult height. Qin Shijie climbed to the south slope, where the tall woods were already very scarce, but the Gan Lingzi were clustered one after another, very dense.

Qin Shijie walked around the Ganlingzi plants and picked some that were already ripe. Break it off with the sprigs and hold it in your hand. At this moment, a faint smell of blood came and entered Qin Shijie's nose.

Qin Shijie's first reaction was that it was not some beast that was injured and hid nearby. He quickly pulled out a hatchet from his waist and made defensive gestures at the same time. After a while, there was still no movement, just a faint smell of blood kept coming into the nose.

Qin Shijie cautiously groped forward, and couldn't help but be taken aback when he gently brushed aside the plants and weeds under a cluster of sweet bell plants five meters away.

Lying on the ground injured turned out to be a person, a middle-aged man wearing a blue warrior costume, bleeding from the corners of his mouth, and a red blood stain on his chest.

Qin Shijie slowly approached and patted the middle-aged man gently: "Uncle!

The middle-aged man did not react, Qin Shijie took off the kettle hanging on his waist, and slowly fed the water into the middle-aged man's breath, while gently patting the middle-aged man's chest with his other hand, so that the water could smoothly enter the middle-aged man's body.

Suddenly, the middle-aged man's right hand quickly grabbed Qin Shijie's neck with lightning speed, Qin Shijie didn't react at all, and the neck was already tightly grasped by the middle-aged man.

Qin Shijie couldn't breathe, and his little face quickly turned red.

At this time, the middle-aged man slowly opened his eyes and found that he was holding a half-old child in his hand, and he couldn't help but be stunned, his serious face eased slightly, and the strength in his hand couldn't help but loosen.

Getting this opportunity, Qin Shijie, who was almost out of breath, finally breathed a sigh of relief. The middle-aged man sensed the surroundings and found that there was no danger, so he let go of Qin Shijie.

Qin Shijie fell backwards and sat down on the weedy behind him, gasping for breath.

After the middle-aged man sat up, the confusion in his eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at Qin Shijie and asked, "Who are you?"

Qin Shijie didn't answer, and sat there panting. After a long while, Fang replied, "I....my name is Qin... Shijie, here... It's....Qin... Home Village... of the back mountain. ”

The middle-aged man saw the kettle that fell beside him, thought for a moment, and looked at Qin Shijie: "Oh, is it you who just woke me up?"

"Yes!" Qin Shijie replied as he gasped. After a moment of breathing, I finally came back to my senses.

Then there was a burst of silence.

The middle-aged man secretly said in his heart: "With my current state, I can't escape too far at all, if the rescuers can't arrive as scheduled, once I am caught, things will definitely be searched by those people." Even if you fight for your life, this thing can't be snatched away by those beasts. But if I hide something somewhere, I can sense the direction of it with the ability of those people, and it is precisely because of this that I will be hunted down again and again. It can be ...... based on your current physical condition. That's how it can be good. ”

The middle-aged man's brows couldn't help but furrow.

raised his head and looked at him, and saw that Qin Shijie was looking at him cautiously. couldn't help but light up his eyes, "Yes, since you can sense it wherever you hide it, those beasts can sense it." It is better to hide something in the human body, because with the characteristics of this thing, after it is fused into the body, even the Holy One will not be able to sense it. ”

"However, if it is fused into the body, even our own people will not be able to feel it. If the Sage asks in the future, how can he explain this?" the middle-aged man couldn't help but hesitate again.

"Forget it, it's better to put it in the boy's body than to fall into the hands of those beasts. Anyway, this teenager is also from my Kyushu mainland. After hesitating for a while, the middle-aged man made up his mind.

Qin Shijie had been looking at the middle-aged man cautiously beside him, and when he saw the middle-aged man staring at him with bright eyes, he couldn't help but feel furious. Just as he was about to ask, the middle-aged man grabbed his front shirt with his left hand and quickly pulled him to him.

"Boy, since you met today, you also saved the life of the Venerable, and the Venerable naturally wants to repay you. I'll send you a creation today. The middle-aged man spoke.

"I don't want your creation, you let me go!" Qin Shijie shouted with a panicked face and struggled violently.

The middle-aged man said, "If the Venerable said that it is creation, it is creation, and naturally it will not harm your life." Don't be afraid. As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man's empty right hand waved, and there was an extra wooden box in his hand. As soon as the wooden box was opened, a burst of brilliant colored light emanated.

Seeing the colored light, even Qin Shijie, who was struggling violently, couldn't help but be stunned. said that it was too late, and the middle-aged man's right hand grabbed the ball of colored light and quickly pressed it on Qin Shijie's heart.

"Ah~!" Qin Shijie cried out in pain. At this time, I saw that the colored light gradually submerged into Qin Shijie's heart, and as the more colored light entered, the more the pain would intensify.

In the end, after the colorful light completely entered Qin Shijie's heart, Qin Shijie's whole person trembled violently. After the middle-aged man let go of Qin Shijie, his whole body curled up on the weeds because of pain, his body trembled unconsciously, and a lot of sweat broke out all over his body.

After about half an hour, Qin Shijie's body not only did not stop, but also trembled more frequently, and his whole body became more and more red, like a cooked shrimp.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man couldn't help frowning, and muttered, "Can't even the initial fusion?" Well, if you do things to the end, I'll make some money. ”

After speaking, the middle-aged man flipped through his hand, and a transparent bottle appeared again, with a drop of crystal blood in the bottle. After the blood floated out of thin air, a thick vitality emanated, and the middle-aged man quickly pushed the floating blood into Qin Shijie's heart.

As soon as that crystal blood entered Qin Shijie's heart, it immediately relieved his pain. In Qin Shijie's perception, there was a burst of coolness from the position of his heart, and after a while, the coolness spread throughout his body. Qin Shijie was also relieved and fainted under this burst of coolness.

The middle-aged man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Qin Shijie had already begun to fuse that colored light and was already fine. Said secretly: "The matter has been completed, it's time to travel thousands of miles away, the thing is no longer on me, the group of people can't sense my location, I should also go, let them find it slowly." Hahaha. ”

The middle-aged man pondered for a while, and said secretly: "Before you leave, you have to erase all traces." I saw him wave his hand, and the traces of the blood he had spit out before, the bent weeds and other traces on the ground disappeared magically, as if nothing had happened.

"In addition, this memory of this young man must also be erased. The middle-aged man turned around and waved his hand at Qin Shijie again.

After doing this, the middle-aged man looked at the young man lying on the ground, muttered: "Qinjia Village~Qin Shijie~" and disappeared in an instant.

On the ground, only Qin Shijie was left alone lying there unconscious.
