At this time, the morning light has not dispersed, under the colorful morning glow, a young man stands on the crystal cliff of Lingxu Peak, he is tall, carrying a heavy bag, a long sword on his waist, a cyan leather jacket around his body, a belt around his waist, a few strands of hair scattered outside the velvet hat, slightly moving in the wind, probably because he is here all the year round, the young man's skin is very fair, his eyebrows are like lacquer, his eyes are like a cold star, and his facial features are as handsome as being carved by the ice of this heaven and earth.

The young man looked up at the top of the snow peak, and after a long time, he silently spoke:

"Master, take care ......"

After finishing speaking, the young man bowed three times in the snow, knelt in the snow, until the sun stained his back and the warmth hit, he slowly got up, turned his head, and looked at the Central Plains land in the east of the glacier.

Taking a deep breath and carrying his bags, the boy walked down the hill step by step......

He didn't know exactly where he was going......

It's just because of the dream a few days ago......

Dream ......

There was a man who couldn't see clearly......

He was asked to go to a town far from here, in the east......

From there, he will slowly learn all the truths he wants to know......

Although he has never met the man in his dreams, the boy can be sure......

The man......

It was his father......

- Daddy......

- Who am I......

――Why did my mother bring me here when I was born, so that she couldn't survive the snow and ice......

――What happened to my family......

-- Who made our lives like this?

- Why didn't you leave me with anything?

- Except for ......

- The remnant sword in the bag......

It was a broken sword that was not gold or jade, not stone or wood, the sword was less than a foot long, the sword body was gray and white, the blade of the sword was the width of a thumb, extremely blunt, the fracture was rough, I don't know what material, but it was extremely hard, but the weight was also very heavy, it was not easy to use, the young master said, this sword, it was inserted in his mother and son back then, and it seemed to be guarding them......

――Where did this sword come from......

Thinking of this, the young man gently lifted the burden behind him, these many questions, I don't know how many years I have followed him......

He even thought that his mother died early, but would his father still be alive in this world? Still waiting for yourself somewhere?

The young man shook his head, and just as he was about to walk out of the Spirit Void Peak, he stopped again to look back......

On the top of the mountain, except for a few green brick houses, they are covered with snow......

It's as if the Master is standing there in a white robe......

The distance between the top of the mountain and the foot of the mountain was very close for a cultivator like him, but since he told Master about that dream, Master ordered him to go down the mountain and not to come back until he had figured out his background......

So now this is the way to go......

It becomes far away......

It's more like the relationship between myself and my master......

The Master brought himself back from the snow, and the grace of nurturing was as heavy as a mountain......

However, Master never told himself what was on his mind......

For example, his past......

Why did he bring his sister to this barren land......

The master is extremely loving, although she regards herself as her own......

But he never mentioned it to him......

Gradually, the boy felt that this was an insurmountable rule, and stopped asking......

Those who keep asking questions are all about themselves:

- "Master! What's my name? ”

- "Your name is Keel ......"

- "Master, why am I called the dragon bone?" ”

- "Because the place where I found you is ...... next to the bones of a huge animal."

- "Where's my father?" ”

- "Your mother didn't survive this cold weather, you were found in her arms, I thought your father went to the neighborhood to ask for help or food, but I searched for seven days and seven nights, and I didn't see anything else nearby......"

- "Master, how do you write my name?" ”

- "Come, the master embroidered a purse for you, and this is your name on it......"

Thinking of the nurturing kindness of the master and the master, the dragon bones were full of emotion, and prayed for them again in their hearts, turned around, and went down the mountain without looking back......

Under the Lingxu Peak, it is not as cold as on the mountain, and the area is gradually flattened, and the keel travels for more than ten days, and finally walks out of this vast ice field and arrives in Gansu. Although it is not like Kunlun here, it is close to the wax moon, and it can be said that the windows are full of snow, and the courtyards of every house make ice strings. Keel ate dry food for many days, at this time met the inn restaurant, in a good mood, found out the master to give the coil, asked for a hand to grasp the mutton, scalded a pot of wine, sat by the window to eat freely, kept looking around, in fact, this is a very ordinary shop, making local home-cooked meals, but in the keel's view, at this moment is very comfortable......

He only goes out of Kunlun once a year, and now he is still young, so that he feels very fresh and interesting to all the customs and customs he sees, eats dishes with different characteristics in various places, changes from extremely heavy clothes to winter clothes in the Central Plains, and lives in the store along the way, listening to the people around him say what they know or don't understand, writing words that they know or don't know, along the way the keel rides yaks, camels, high-headed horses, and measures the land of the Central Plains alone, and the pedestrians around are not only enthusiastic, but also sometimes laughing and laughing, and sometimes singing, Let the keel feel that every day down the mountain is extremely beautiful......

On this day, the weather is still cold, but the air is no longer as dry as before, the keel continues to walk eastward, that afternoon to a big town, you see everywhere lights, firecrackers are ringing, keel only then found that it has been nearly two months down the mountain, today, it is Chinese New Year's Eve......

The keel walked in the city, although it was not his hometown, but he felt the joy of the festival, the lively temple fair, a dazzling array of goods, wonderful acrobatic tricks, in the continuous cheers and shouts of the villagers, the keel, which is usually a person of few words, was not aware of being infected, laughing loudly, shouting hard. Back to the inn in the evening, the treasurer not only waived the day's room money, but also asked them to eat a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, some people in the inn took out special wine, can cook a few hometown dishes, everyone gathered together, this meal is really enjoyable, the youngest son of the treasurer during the banquet also performed a show, in the laughter, the keel who rarely drinks was also persuaded to drink a lot, and only gradually left the table at night, everyone was drunk, and when they returned to the room, the keel fell headlong on the bed, I felt that I didn't even want to turn over, and I could hear the sound of firecrackers and the playful laughter of children outside from time to time, and the corners of the keel's mouth rose slightly:

-- Another good day......

-- Life outside is really comfortable and exciting......

――The people I met were all very good......

――Where is it as dangerous as Master said......

Keel shook his head, remembering that the master and his wife would always give him a red envelope during the New Year, so he thought about making a few red envelopes tomorrow morning to the children in the shopkeeper's house......

I don't know how long it will be, and the keel will fall asleep......

People who practice martial arts generally have morning classes, and they have been accustomed to sleeping until Mao and wake up naturally, and the keel is the same, but on the first day of the new year, when he woke up, the sky was already bright, presumably when the time came, the keel turned over and got out of bed, pinched the pain in his brain, walked two steps to the table, subconsciously touched his luggage, and suddenly gasped......

The burden was open, the keel was poured out and rummaged, the small entanglement had been looted, and the broken sword was left in the baggage, and a few pieces of clothing and medicine, and next to it was his own sword, and there was nothing else, the keel sat on the chair, poured saliva and calmed down, and turned his head to look at the doors and windows on both sides:

- That's not right......

- If a thief comes in......

――How could I not have found out?

――Is it ......?

――Was there a ghost in the food last night?

Thinking of this, the dragon bone rushed out of the room with his sword, and saw that there were already many people around the account desk downstairs, most of them were residents of this store, constantly shouting, and some of them were not even very conscious, sitting at the table closest to the account desk, intermittently echoing the voice......

"You're a black shop!" A big man yells loudly with a foreign accent!

"It's a big New Year! What a conscience you are! Another said!

"Everyone! Everybody! The shopkeeper shook his long beard and shouted, "Wronged! I ate last night's wine too! I, the money in my account has been stolen too! You've wronged me! ”

"The thief shouts to catch the thief!" "That's it! Who knows where you're hiding your money? ”

The keel came over, and immediately someone came to ask him how many things he had lost, and the keel told him, and after a while, he heard someone shouting outside:

"Don't shout! Someone from the yamen is coming! Don't shout! ”

Before the words fell, I saw a few people dressed as officials walking in, and the keel naturally retreated, because he would not deal with the people of the government the most, and the master rarely met with the government on the mountain, in fact, there was no one to go to that place all the year round, before going down the mountain, the master warned him not to be arrogant with the people of the government, and to speak in a way and reasonably, and to pay attention to proportion. The keel was silent at this time, listening carefully to their conversation with the villagers, a few officials came over, and the people on duty counted a few witnesses, including the shopkeeper, and some people looked for the keel, and the people who lost things one by one recorded and wrote what they lost, and for about an hour, the leader called two officials to check in each room, and the others went back with the witnesses' evidence......

"They...... Where did it go? When the people had gone, the keel whispered to a woman sitting in the lobby, who sighed:

"I'm going to the yamen to solve the case." The woman shook her head, "This is the New Year, that thief really kills a thousand knives!" ”

Keel nodded, went back to the house to pack his luggage briefly, went downstairs again, and went straight to the door to go out, when the woman hurriedly stopped him:

"Hey! Where are you going? ”

"Catch the thief!" Keel Loop......

"Oops! Where are you going? The woman pulled him by, "Aren't all the people at the gate here?" Besides, the thief must have run away by now, and he is probably out of the city! ”

"Then I'll chase it!" Keel said confidently......

"You know where you are," ...... woman whispered, "I advise you not to go...... Got it? ”

Keel shook his head a little woodenly......

"Well, do you know what the messenger who went up just now was doing? People are focused on checking the people who left today, to see if there are any clues left in the room, you are gone now, it is inevitable that people will not be suspected of being with the thief, staying to "watch", to put it bluntly, it is pretending to be the victim, look at the progress of the case here, human and physical evidence, whether there is any omission, and finally slip away to find the accomplices after the incident, so as to escape more safely......"

The keel is a little clearer, so I quickly thanked him......

The woman shook her head:

"Seeing that you are not very old, will you go out by yourself this time?"

"Hmmm......"

"Where are you going?"

"Go East ......"

"Head east...... Where to go? Going to the beach? That's a long way off! If I don't stop you, you just leave, even if you don't get suspected, do you still have money to live in a hotel? ”

The keel was suddenly stunned......

The woman looked at him, raised a hand and shook it and pointed at him:

"I guess you're not going to put all the coils in your baggage and steal them all last night, are you?"

"I ......" the keel was hit at once, and the two sighed almost at the same time:

"You, learn a little, you have to keep some of that plate stuffed in your clothes, or take it close to you, so that you won't be robbed, and even your meal will be gone......"

Keel nodded hurriedly......

The two talked a little more, and the woman left, and when she was gone, the keel stood at the door of the inn, looking at the people who came and went laughing and greeting the New Year, and could not be happy in any way, and when he returned to the store, the eyes of the people around him changed, and they became suspicious of each other, and only one night passed, and the beautiful relationship between people in his heart was gone......

The keel sighed, and survived the first day of the new year, and waited until the sun set before the shopkeeper came back, and gathered a few people, and the shopkeeper's sad face asked his wife to bring up last night's meal, and the keel was eating and eating, and he felt that some dishes were not hot, and his heart was cold......

After two more days, the government came again, drew a few pictures for them to identify, and then posted them everywhere, and from then on the shopkeeper stopped taking care of the food, and demanded money from them......

In the afternoon of this day, many of the stolen tenants left one after another, Xiao Ershang came to the keel room to see twice, at dusk, the keel looked at the sunset from the window, shook his head, turned around and went downstairs:

"Shopkeeper, my entanglement is indeed lost, you see......" Keel paused, "Can I give you some work here in exchange for some money?" ”

The shopkeeper shook his beard like a rattle:

"Let's go! Look elsewhere......" The shopkeeper folded his hands and begged, "I'm a small shop, I can't afford to invite you as a bodhisattva!" Alas, if I had heard about the family, I shouldn't have opened it for the New Year, not because it was not easy for you to be outside for the New Year, but ...... But this happened! It's bad luck, bad luck......"

The keel said a few more words, but the shopkeeper still disagreed, and finally walked out of the account desk and pushed the keel upstairs......

"Shopkeeper! You see I'm really not entangled at all......"

The shopkeeper looked up at him, he was young, and he was still running around during the New Year, so he really couldn't bear it, so he went back to the account desk and bent down and found out a few more money:

"Take it, pack up and leave!"

Keel took the money, thanked the shopkeeper, went back to the room to tidy up, sighed, and wanted to thank the shopkeeper again when he went out, but the shopkeeper's head was not raised, Keel shook his head, and walked into the cold wind......

With a few copper plates given by the shopkeeper and some dry food, the keel began to continue eastward with only two legs......

Without entanglement, I suddenly found that the outside world is really not so beautiful......

It seems that everything is rejecting him......

Four or five more days......

Although the keel has lived on a cold iceberg since childhood......

But on the cold days of the ninth day, he was hungry and cold every day, and lived a life of sleeping in the open......

He couldn't stand it anymore......

There are no relatives or friends around, and they are completely helpless......

And he didn't know when it was going to be a head......

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and now that the year is closed, there are very few businesses in business, and there is no work to recruit workers......

Keel gritted his teeth and continued to the east......
