Night.

The 'void sun' at the dome directly above has been extinguished.

Under a huge stone pillar, a huge stone wall encloses a courtyard of seven or eight acres. A black fortress stands clinging to a stone pillar,

Vast expanses of glow-in-the-dark moss and vines clinged to the outer walls of the fort, illuminating the courtyard with a dark blue and pale green fluorescence. It also adds a bit of ancient and vicissitudes to this small stone castle.

Behind the main gate of the courtyard, two Niu people who were in charge of night duty were lying on the ground on their backs, snoring heartily, and two big axes made of thick iron were thrown at hand.

The two gray lizards circled unhurriedly along the wall, and each time they crawled past the two ox-people, their amber eyes glared at them and spat out long letters impatiently.

The main entrance to the stone castle opened silently.

The thin Wu Tie walked out, and the two gray rock lizards quickly crawled over, affectionately licked Wu Tie's palms and insteps with Xinzi, and continued to circle around the root of the wall.

Looking at the two sleeping Niu people, Wu Tie grinned, and walked around the back of the stone castle with a small brisk.

There is an acre-sized school yard here, and the sand and gravel floor is littered with all kinds of thick and heavy instruments, including stone locks, stone tripods, and large stone balls with long chains. The largest stone ball among them is a lot taller than Wu Tie.

Carefully took off the close-fitting clothes made of fine linen on his body, Wu Tie stood in the middle of the school field bare-chested, gritted his teeth, slowly waved his arms and legs, with a little jerky, and slowly played a set of punches and kicks.

Just a quarter of an hour later, the sweaty Wu Tie fell to the ground panting, the green tendons under the white skin were protruding, many of the green tendons were squirming violently, the muscles of his body were spasms, the severe pain made his eyes black, he gritted his teeth tightly, and did not make a sound.

The spasms lasted for a while, and several times Wu Tie almost fainted in pain, but he gritted his teeth and carried it hard.

Waiting for the pain to slowly subside, Wu Tie struggled to stand up, picked the smallest stone lock on the school field, and hugged it tightly.

Closing his eyes, clenching his teeth, and his muscles tensed, Wu Tie squeezed out the last trace of strength in his body, trembling violently, but the stone lock, which was almost half the size of his body, did not move.

After working hard for a long time, the last strength was exhausted, Wu Tie sat on the ground suddenly, his hands drooped weakly, and his head hit the stone lock heavily.

"There are some things that don't mean that hard work will definitely pay off. A somewhat hoarse, unusually gentle voice came from the edge of the schoolyard.

About five feet tall, with a wolf's head and a human body, wearing a spacious robe made of fine linen, and neatly combed gray hair, the gray master had his hands behind his back, holding a leather scroll in his hand, and walked to Wu Tie's side step by step.

With a gleam of wisdom in his deep eyes, the gray master reached out and touched Wu Tie's sweaty head, and said in a deep voice: "Taiping...... I remember, I said it to you. In this world, each person has his own unique and irreplaceable value. ”

Wu Tie raised his head and muttered in a low voice, "However, we have to find the right way to realize our own value!"

"That's right, the right way!" the gray master smiled, "And I, just see again and again, you are wasting energy on the wrong path. ”

"I ......" Wu Tie opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he held his breath again, lowered his head in annoyance, and smashed a punch on the stone lock.

His fist hurt, and Wu Tie gritted his teeth, trying his best not to show a painful look.

"Believe me, force is not the only force. "The gray master raised his head, hundreds of meters above his head, the black dome was extremely oppressive, and it was still a long, long time before the 'Void Sun' lit up......

"Since you're in such good spirits. Gray Master sat down beside Wu Tie with a smile, and wrote a long list of characters on the sand and stone with his fingers: "The long night is long, I have no intention of sleeping, and it is good to solve a few arithmetic problems." ”

"Also, I think this poem is extremely beautiful, after solving the problem, you memorize it with me!"

In the blue and green glow, a fluffy wolf head shook its head, gently swayed the scroll in his hand, and recited in a handsome young voice - 'Xiaolou listens to the spring rain overnight, and sells apricot blossoms in the Ming Dynasty in the deep alley'!

"But, Master...... What are apricot blossoms? I've never seen them! Nobody has ever seen them!" In the quiet of the night, the young man's angry grumbling sounded.

"But, the peace...... Apricot blossoms, it must exist!" The gray master was gentle, and his voice sounded faintly with a somewhat hoarse voice. He muttered to himself full of longing: "What a beautiful artistic conception...... Apricot blossoms, that's there for sure!"

'Click, click' sounds came from the dome.

The 'Void Sun' with a diameter of about 30 meters lit up a little red light from the center, and gradually, the red light spread to all sides, and after an hour, the entire 'Void Sun' was completely lit up, and the warm red light illuminated the Wugu Valley within a radius of several miles.

Last night, the moisture blown by the wind from the surrounding mines and tunnels soaked the ground.

The red light of the 'Void Sun' caused the temperature of Wugu to rise rapidly, and the water vapor evaporated, and a white mist several meters high accumulated on the ground.

Wu Tie pinched a large boiled mushroom and stood on the sentry tower at the courtyard gate and looked around.

In the Wu Valley, there was a sharp shout from the chaotic stone houses, and the sound of a leather whip was heard.

Groups of gray dwarves shouted loudly and drove the hordes of rock gnomes out of the stone houses with a wave of whips. Led by two ox tribesmen, with seven or eight gray wolf warriors, escorted a group of rock gnomes and sent baskets of cooked white mushrooms outside the courtyard.

The rock gnomes walked by in a line, took a white mushroom one by one, and quickly swallowed the bitter white mushroom with an expressionless face.

Just a quarter of an hour later, more than a thousand rock gnomes belonging to the Wu family carried various tools, escorted by dozens of gray dwarves, and marched towards a mine outside the Wu Valley.

It didn't take long for the wind to hear the sound of 'clanging'.

A gray rock lizard happily crawled to Wu Tie's side, looking up at the large meat mushroom in Wu Tie's hand.

Wu Tie looked in the direction of the mine, pursed his lips, and hummed to the two cattle people who were standing at the door holding a large basket of food and eating: "You say, how many of those poor dwarf slaves will die today?"

The two ox people grinned with bared teeth, their smiles were full of awe for the little master of Wu Tie, but there was a strange bloodthirsty aura diffused - 'meat', one of the cow people waved his fist and muttered vaguely.

Wu Tie felt a greasy smell in his heart.

He stuffed the large meat mushroom in his hand into the open mouth of the gray rock lizard, and the gray rock lizard, which was three the size of Wu Tie, wagged its tail happily, and quickly jumped down the courtyard wall with the large meat mushroom in its mouth.

The gray master held the scroll and walked up with three staggering steps.

He looked at the gray rock lizard that had run away, sighed, and shook his head: "So, you are not suitable for cultivation! Your father, and your three elder brothers...... They don't waste a single bit of food!"

"Including those poor dwarf slaves?" Wu Tie pursed his lips, only to feel a burst of sour water in his throat and eyes.

"At least your father and brother haven't touched them...... Gray Master spread his hands, he looked at Wu Tie seriously, and shook his head vigorously: "Taiping...... Your father gave you this name because he wanted you to live a peaceful life...... This does not mean ......"

Wu Tie turned his head, looked in the direction of the mine, and said stubbornly: "Do you want to call me weak......?

"This is a cruel world, everyone has to adapt to the cruel laws!" Wu Tie muttered like a tongue twister: "So, I want to cultivate, but you say that I have found a wrong path!

Facing the courtyard gate, more than three miles away, on the rock wall more than 100 meters above the ground, in a rock cave with a diameter of more than ten meters, a limestone lizard with a head full of four or five sizes of Wu Tie suddenly jumped out.

A blue wolf warrior almost two meters tall sat on the back of a graystone lizard, and raised a thick iron spear high in his right hand.

A head was stuck in a spear, and when the wolf warrior swung the spear, the long messy hair on the grinning head danced, revealing a rough face full of beard.

"Win!" the limestone lizard came to a steady stop on the ninety-degree vertical rock wall, and the green wolf warrior stood on the lizard's back and let out a high-pitched howl.

Three more large gray lizards scurried out of the cave, and the three green wolf warriors grinned loudly.

In the sound of rapid steps, more than two dozen fierce hunting spiders poured out of the cave like a tide, and on the back of each fierce hunting spider, there was a gray dwarf warrior with knotted muscles, and they excitedly swung their sledgehammers, smashing large sparks on the surrounding rock walls.

Four nearly tall Ox warriors carried large plate axes and walked out of the cave slowly.

Seeing the Wujia Stone Fort from a distance, the four Niu clan warriors snorted violently, and the huge pure gold nose ring swayed so unhappily.

Behind the four Niu warriors, a rock python with the thickness of a water tank and a length of more than twenty meters swam out slowly. Wu Tie's father, Wu Zhan, clasped his hands on his chest and sat cross-legged on top of the rock python's head, looking forward to it.

Wu Jin, Wu Yin, Wu Copper, Wu Tie's three brothers, a fierce man who is almost as tall as Wu Zhan is more than two meters tall, stood on the back of the rock python, and laughed loudly at Wu Tie from a long distance.

"Hahaha!" Wu Jin jumped up, led a strong wind and jumped down from the mouth of the cave, his feet fell heavily to the ground, and he strode towards Wu Tie.

More than three miles away, Wu Jin only took a dozen breaths to rush to the ground, he stepped onto the five-meter-high wall in one step, opened his arms, and hugged Wu Tie hard.

"Haha, Taiping! The Xiong family, who has been right with our family for all these years, has finally been wiped out by us this time!" Wu Jin laughed and untied a huge leather bag from his back, and took out several broken and old animal skin scrolls.

"I really can't imagine that the Xiong family actually has a book inheritance!" Wu Jin's eyes widened, and he handed a few books to Wu Tie's face: "I can't think of it, right? We don't know many words, and there are still some strange words that twist and turn, look at it, do you like it?"

The gray master's eyes on the side suddenly lit up, and saliva faintly flowed out of the corners of his mouth.

Wu Tie stared at a few books without saying a word.

It wasn't the gift he wanted.

That's not the gift he wanted.

In front of his eyes, there was still an image of the human head on the spear of the Blue Wolf Warrior.

He still remembered that three years ago, this bearded man, Xiong Hu, the head of the Xiong family, once raided the Wu family with a group of warriors.

"You brought such a few people back?" Wu Tie didn't look at the books, but looked at the family warriors brought back by Wu Zhan and the others.

He remembered clearly that when he set off half a month ago, the warriors taken away by Wu Zhan and the others were several times as many as in front of them, and the Wu family was out of the nest.

"There are more than 1,000 mine slaves on the Xiong family's side, and there are many surrendered warriors to guard, and there are so many mines and farms. Wu Jin handed the scroll to the gray master with a happy face, and said with a big grin: "So, there are some people left over there." A lot of things have to be taken care of!"

Wu Zhan led the team to the gate of the courtyard, and waved his hand to Wu Tie with a smile: "Taiping, take out all the delicious food and drink in the warehouse!"

Wu Zhan smiled hesitantly: "Swallowed the Xiong family, spend some effort to merge his family's strength, hey, it's been years since I coveted Black Wind Valley...... That's a lot of fertile land!"

"Celebrate!" Wu Zhan shook his fist vigorously and laughed.

All the returning Wu clan warriors were laughing happily, and several Niu clan warriors laughed so much that their muscles trembled, and many of the freshly scabbed wounds on their bodies suddenly cracked, and blood flowed out one after another, but they looked as if nothing had happened.

The light of the 'vanity sun' is fading.

Several animal oil torches were inserted into the courtyard wall, and the fire mass the size of a water tank emitted a bright light, overpowering the fluorescence of luminous moss and luminous vines, illuminating the courtyard in a bright light.

Bowls of bad liquor brewed from bitter potato root starch were poured down, large chunks of fatty roasted meat were constantly served, and piles of high-starch rhizomes were cooked and cut into pieces, and piled up haphazardly on the stone table.

The warriors of the witch family enjoyed themselves heartily, and the rock gnomes who waited on the side were sneaky, scratching the ground for the stubbs and rhizomes of the barbecue that the warriors had leaked, and quickly stuffed them into their mouths.

Some of the bold gnomes simply gathered around a few warriors, and there were dripping drinks on the stone floor, and they hurriedly lay on the ground and licked the dripping wine clean.

The entire Wujia Stone Fort was full of joy.

Only Wu Tie was in the backyard, by a huge cistern, he filled a stone basin with clean water, and seriously cleaned Xiong Hu's bloodstained head.

The strands of messy hair were neatly combed, and Wu Tie spent a lot of effort to finally clean up this hideous trophy.

Heavy footsteps sounded, and Wu Zhan walked over step by step, standing behind Wu Tie and watching quietly.

After a while, Wu Zhan said angrily: "This is an ancestral custom...... Cutting off the head of the enemy leader and sacrificing it to the ancestors will make the family have better luck and the family will prosper!"

Wu Tiepan sat in front of Xiong Hu's head, holding his chin with both hands, quietly looking at the head with his eyes closed.

"Dad, one day, will we also be cut off by people and become the trophy of their martial arts?" Wu Tie asked very seriously.

Wu Zhan was stunned, then he shook his head and laughed loudly: "How is it possible!"

Triumphantly patting his chest, Wu Zhan untied a beast tendon necklace from his neck, touched the white fangs more than a foot long on the necklace, and hung the necklace on Wu Tie's neck.

"Hmph, hmph, our Wu family is not easy to bully. Wu Zhan patted Wu Tie's head and almost slapped Wu Tie to the ground.

"This thing, which is said to be called 'Chi Youya', is the heirloom of the Xiong family!"

"When you are an adult, I will take you back to my home to meet the family elders!" Wu Zhan said with his head held high, "That's right...... Your eldest brother and second brother have seen your mother...... You and the third child haven't met your mother and your little sister yet...... In a few years, save more good things, Dad will take you to see her!"

Pointing to the 'Chiyou Teeth' hanging on Wu Tie's neck, Wu Zhan squinted his eyes and muttered to himself: "This thing, you take it for two years, and when the time comes, you will inevitably be looted by your own mother!"

A strange smile flashed on his face, and Wu Zhan rubbed his waist vigorously: "When the time comes, I must add another brother to you...... My sister is good, too!"

Wu Tie looked up at Wu Zhan in amazement.
