The battle between Xue Longhai and the Demon Flame Man finally came to an end, he almost exhausted the power of the source, fell from the sky, and finally landed next to the giant pit, at this moment he was at the end of the crossbow, and during the battle, he forcibly absorbed a large amount of fire spirit power, resulting in his body being extremely bad now, if he hadn't cultivated to the world, ordinary people would have already turned into ashes.

At this moment, he didn't even have the strength to swing his sword, and the big acupoints and meridians all over his body were clogged, and the most important thing was that the aura of this heaven and earth was so thin that it was outrageous, and it was extremely difficult to heal his wounds.

"Is God going to kill me?"

Xue Longhai took out some healing medicine and took it, slowly recovering his spiritual power and treating his wounds.

Half a moment later, I had a little bit of strength. He looked at his left hand, a delicate ring appeared in front of him, his mind moved, the ring was full of brilliance, and then a swaddling child appeared next to him, this is a beautiful little baby boy, about a year old, clear big eyes, waving little hands, at this moment the little guy is smiling at him.

"Little guy, my life is risked for you, you actually smile at me without heart", the man looked at the child in his arms with satisfaction.

rumble

At this moment, the mountain suddenly shook, a huge boom sounded, and the mountain behind it began to roll down the rocks, and huge black smoke rose from the top of the mountain.

"Oops, the battle just now was too fierce and induced the long-dormant volcano here," Xue Longhai sighed secretly.

Shi Chengyi, who was hiding behind the stone, couldn't hide at the moment, and a big stone rolled down towards him, "Mom, if you believe in a stone all your life, will you be stoned to death?" Shi Chengyi shouted, and even rolled and climbed in a hurry to dodge, but the speed of the falling boulder was too fast, and he saw that he was about to be gone.

Just when Shi Chengyi was desperate, a sword qi galloped and split the big stone behind him into rubble, and he directly collapsed to the ground, only to realize that he was not dead after a while.

Shi Chengyi stood up and looked around to find that Xue Longhai was smiling at him a hundred meters away.

Shi Chengyi hurriedly ran to Xue Longhai's side, but at this moment, he was no longer afraid of this man who destroyed the world, because he found that his strength was like an ant in front of this person, if he wanted to kill himself, he would have died a long time ago. Besides, he saved his life just now.

"Eun Gong, thank you for your help. Shi Chengyi came to Xue Longhai's side and thanked him.

"It should be me who apologizes to you for bringing disaster to you by my arrival." Xue Longhai was full of apologies.

"The person who played against you just now is not a good person, you can destroy him, it means that you are a real great hero, and it is people like you that I admire the most in my life. Shi Chengyi said respectfully.

"Ahem"

"Ahem"

"You're fine, see that your body is seriously injured, and if you don't treat it, I'm afraid it will endanger your life. Shi Chengyi cared.

"Your aura here is very depleted, otherwise, with my strength is enough to heal myself, but now I can't do anything, I have run out of oil, and I guess I won't last long. ”

rumble

"Let's get out of here, look at the pattern, the volcano is about to erupt in full force, and it will be difficult to leave by then. Shi Chengyi said worriedly.

"It's late, it's too difficult to go, I can't control Shenhong anymore, even if I move a few times, it's heartbreaking", Xue Longhai shook his head.

"What can I do, I know that there is a hidden cave in that mountain not far away, where we hunters often spend the night, and that mountain will not have a volcano, and if we can hide there, we may be able to escape. Shi Chengyi pointed to a mountain not far away.

"If we run together, we will surely die, and this volcano will almost erupt in full force, and we will not be able to reach it at our speed. After Xue Longhai finished speaking, he looked at the child in his arms. Then he said: "You and I meet here today because of fate, I will do my best to help you reach that mountain at once, but you have to promise me one thing?"

"Engong, please say, as long as I, Shi Chengyi, can do it, I will never give up. ”

"It's not that serious, as long as you help me raise this child to adulthood, then you are my benefactor, the great calamity I suffered today is all for this child, as long as he lives well, I will die immediately. Xue Longhai said righteously.

"Is this your child?" asked Shi Chengyi.

"No, this is my brother-in-law's only son, when I encountered a great enemy, it was my brother-in-law who sacrificed his life to save me, so I can live until now, and now my eldest brother's family is suffering from misfortune, even if I die, I must keep my brother's only bloodline. Now I entrust the child to you, I hope you can treat him well, I Xue Longhai will not thank you easily in my life, but I still thank you. ”

"Then his father ......" Shi Chengyi wanted to inquire about the child's family, but he couldn't speak.

"It's not that I deliberately hide it from you, his family must not let the outside world know, otherwise it will inevitably lead to greater disasters, the child will have your surname in the future, if he is strong one day in the future, you can tell him about today's events, but if he will have an ordinary life in the future, then let everything that happened today be buried in the dust, don't let him know his life, don't let him live in hatred. ”

"If he has a future in the future, how will he learn the truth about the original family?" Shi Chengyi asked.

"He has a family mark in his body, and he can only feel it when he has a certain strength, and then he will look for it, if he is weak, he can't feel the existence of the mark. Xue Longhai put some things into Na Ling, and gave Shi Chengyi: "This Na Ling is a space that can accommodate things, if one day the child is talented and powerful, you will give him this thing, which will be of great use to him." This thing must not be known to others on weekdays, otherwise it will be a great disaster. ”

Now that there are boulders rolling in the mountain from time to time, and the surroundings are no longer safe, Xue Longhai meditates for a moment to regulate his internal breath, while Shi Chengyi holds this chubby little boy on the side.

After a moment, "It's almost over, you get ready, I'm going to forcibly send you away." Xue Longhai was about to cast a spell, when the little boy seemed to sense that they were about to separate, and burst into tears, while Shi Chengyi hurriedly comforted the child.

Looking at his relatives who were about to be separated, Xue Longhai was full of emotion in his heart, but he couldn't even keep his relatives after years of cultivation, and a feeling of heartbreak lingered in his heart.

Xue Longhai didn't hesitate, his hands quickly sealed, even if his physical condition was extremely bad, he still completed the spell casting despite the severe pain, and a ball of brilliance flew towards the mountain in the distance with Shi Chengyi and the child.

Looking at the two people who were gradually moving away, the stone in Xue Longhai's heart was finally put down, and at this moment he had already put his life and death out of the way.

Just after he sent the two of them away, it wasn't long before an apocalyptic volcanic eruption shocked the residents of Jiahe City, the first time the silent volcano erupted in years, this time more amazing than any before. The smoke that obscured the sky, the hot lava overflowed, and the terrifying volcanic ash almost buried Jiahe City.

The masters of the four major families who were ready to venture into the mountain before had long since disappeared, and some mercenaries who ran slowly were directly buried under this terrifying volcanic ash.

......

A month has passed, and the disaster has been witnessed by countless people, many homes have been buried by volcanic ash, and countless people have been killed and injured.

Now the major families have suffered a lot of losses, and they are all busy restoring order in the city. After the volcano was quiet, several families rushed into the mountain to go to the place of the incident, hoping to gain a thing or two, but when they got there, they found that everything had turned into dust, and the volcanic eruption that day was too terrifying, and everything around was swallowed by lava.

Although countless people have entered the mountains one after another, they have gained nothing. In the next few years, Jiahe City has seen some masters who control Shenhong enter the place of the big war to observe, these people are basically the top masters from the mainland, and the small Jiahe City has not yet given birth to a master who can control Shenhong, but even these people have all returned with a feather, no one has gained anything in a few years, and there are fewer people who come later......

Countless people regretted that they had witnessed the miracle and received nothing, and as for the man who survived, no one had seen him since the eruption, as if he had disappeared into the world......

On that day, Shi Chengyi took the child to hide in the deep mountains, which was a secret cave built by their hunters in the mountains.

After hiding in the cave for a few days, the dry food was almost gone, and the animal milk for the child was almost gone, so the uncle took the child back home. He told his wife the general situation and did not say some key things, for fear of bringing disaster to the family.

The two couples finally reached a consensus, telling the villagers that the child was abandoned by someone in the city and that there was no one to take care of him before he was adopted by the couple, and they also promised Shi Chengyi's family to keep the child a secret.

For Shi Chengyi and his wife, they have had no children for many years, and now they can be regarded as having a successor, but the husband and wife are also pleased.

Time flies, ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the little boy who was once waiting to be fed has grown up a lot, although Shi Chengyi and his wife have not been able to give their children a rich living condition, but they have been regarded as a few over the years, and they have not told him about the years over the years.

At this moment, Shi Xuan's mother looked at the sleeping child, but she felt unsteady in her heart, now the child has reached the golden age of cultivation, but the poor family has no way for him to embark on the road of cultivation, once this opportunity is missed, in the future, this child may only be like the two of them to suffer from the cold for a lifetime, and it is difficult to get ahead in life, thinking of this, her heart is uncomfortable.

......

It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that the two brothers finally returned from hunting in the back mountain, and Shi Xuan heard that his father was back, and rushed home to see what his father had gained.

When he returned home, Shi Xuan's eyes were about to fall out, this was the Red Rock Demon Fox and the Triangle Demon Snake and a steel-maned wild boar.

"Wow, dad has a good harvest this time, I haven't hit the Red Rock Demon Fox for a long time. Shi Xuan excitedly touched the beautiful fur of the demon fox.

"Yes, this demon fox fur is of the highest grade and will definitely be able to sell for a good price, and the horn of this triangular demon snake can be used as a good elixir, and it is also worth some money. This wild boar can only be sacrificed for our teeth, and it can't be sold for any price. "Daddy is tired, but he is also satisfied.

"Oh, and meat again in the evening. Shi Xuan was so excited that he danced, the quality of the prey he had caught in the past was poor, and he even returned empty-handed, and the family could often only eat some wild vegetables, and only when the harvest was good like this time could he eat meat, otherwise he might not even be able to make up the protection fee of the Wang family.

"Dad, have you entered the depths of the mountain again this time, how can there be these good things near the mountain, the first few times I went into the mountain with you, I couldn't even see the rabbit?" Shi Xuan asked curiously.

"Yes, this time I and your uncle have gone farther than ever, otherwise there is no good prey, but it is too dangerous, last night we just hunted a wild boar, just wanted to leave and was almost targeted by a lightning leopard, we left the wild boar to get out, that guy is fast, powerful and responsive, for us ordinary hunters is not an opponent at all, if the strength is strong, that lightning leopard is worth five demon foxes. ”

Dad remembered what happened in the mountains last night, and every time he returned from entering the mountain, he would carefully teach Shi Xuan, asking him to identify all kinds of prey, how to identify some dangerous beasts, as well as many escape and hunting skills, and identify useful or poisonous elixirs. These are very valuable experiences for developing a hunter.

"Okay, that's all for today, make a good meal tonight. After Dad finished speaking, he took Shi Xuan and began to process the prey technically.

"Be careful, if the skin of this demon fox is scratched, it will be worthless, you have to be careful with a knife for this thing. Looking at Shi Xuan's clumsy skinning, Dad said distressedly.

"Oh, Daddy, the of the triangular snake can be used as an elixir, what can this demon fox's skin do?" Shi Xuan was puzzled.

"Hey, the fur of this demon fox can only be repaid for the poor, but for the rich people in the city, it is very popular, this thing does not look small, it can be made into beautiful fox fur clothes in the tailor shop, and the rich girls in the city like it. Daddy explained.

"It turned out to be a costume, such an expensive thing, but why don't I think it's as strong as our ordinary animal skin? Shi Xuan felt unreliable.

"This is nothing, there is more valuable fur than this, a few years ago an uncle in the village, once hit a beautiful magic mink, its fur is not only ten demon fox skin, I heard that it was directly bought by a rich man in the city for a hundred gold. Daddy said.

"Is that thing so valuable, have you ever hit it, Daddy?" Shi Xuan asked.

"I saw it once when I was young, and I never met it again, it's too rare, this thing is too cunning, it's harder to hunt than a demon fox, and I don't necessarily catch it when I encounter it. ”

The father and son taught one by one, and the other with their hands, finally got the valuable materials right, and Shi Xuan learned a lot of things.

This night, the smell of meat at home was fragrant, and there was a lot of laughter at home......

The next day, the father and son came to the city and sold all the valuable materials to obtain dozens of gold, which was also a great harvest.

The two wandered around the city to buy some household items.

"Xuan'er, after a while, I will be able to scrape together enough money to send you to Tianhai Yuan in the city at that time, and then you will be able to start cultivating, you have to fight for me." Dad patted Shi Xuan on the shoulder and said.

"Daddy is going to send me to practice?" Shi Xuan was surprised.

"You're almost old, no matter how old you are, you will miss it, I don't want you to live your life like me, I hope you can one day walk out of Stone Village, out of Jiahe City, out of Hongyan Ridge to the mainland, I have never been to those places in my life, I hope you can go further." Daddy said meaningfully.

"Dad, I don't want to leave you. Shi Xuan was a little stunned, he had never left his parents for so many years.

"If an eagle wants to fly high, it has to leave its parents, and that's what everybody has to go through. Daddy comforted.

"The city is not far from home, and what you can see at any time is just that you must take care of yourself when you are outside. "Daddy earnestly instructed.

Jiahe City is not a small city in Hongyan Ridge, in addition to the four major families, there are also many forces here, and some powerful people have opened martial arts halls in the city to teach some entry-level cultivation methods, and they can also profit from it. Many of the mercenaries in the city came from these martial arts halls, after all, they couldn't get the cultivation exercises on their own, and it was difficult for them to move an inch without anyone to teach them.

The four major families naturally have many masters, but they are not open to the public, unless they themselves are willing to accept apprentices, it is difficult to learn from them.

There were still a few months left in the academy's apprenticeship recruitment time, and Shi Xuan and the others returned home, and his father also promised to take Shi Xuan into the mountain again.

In the past few years, Shi Xuan has learned a lot from his father, his archery skills are not even worse than his father's, but he has no hunting experience, and this time his father will actually test what he has learned over the years.

The two of them were preparing to enter the mountain at home, and Shi Xuan's strength was not enough to use his father's hundred-stone bow, so he could only use a smaller bow and arrow, which was enough for them this time.

After making sufficient preparations, they began to enter the mountain, Hongyan Ridge is really a magical place, the dark red rock and soil in the sunlight looks like blood, extraordinarily infiltrating, some experts have analyzed that this is related to the volcano in the depths of the mountain is rich in fire spirit minerals, which is also the purpose of many merchants in the southwest region to travel long distances here.

The fire spirit treasure here is of great use to people who practice fire exercises on the mainland, this thing is not available everywhere, it must be abundant in a place like Hongyan Ridge, where fire spirits are abundant, and the quality is the best.

Of course, with the current strength of Shi Xuan's father and son, it is difficult to go deep into the volcanic group to mine, and there is still a chance to see some on the edge occasionally, some famous mines are occupied by several major families, and there are masters stationed all year round, and others can only try their luck in the vast mountains.

This time, Shi Xuan and the others didn't choose to go too deep, after all, trials are the mainstay, and it would be dangerous to go too deep and provoke any big guys.

Shi Xuan excitedly followed behind his father, both of them were walking in a tiger's step, Shi Xuan's body had been trained solidly in recent years, and he did not lag behind his legs at all, even after walking through many steep mountains. Looking down on the city of Jiahe from the hill is a sight to behold, a huge blood-colored river flows into the distance, the quaint city walls look magnificent in the sun, and the surrounding villages are also unobstructed.

The two walked through a large area of mountains, but they still didn't have much to gain, except for picking a few ordinary elixirs, there was no gain.

"The mountains are too desolate, and if you catch them cleanly all these years, you won't get anything. Daddy sighed.

Shi Xuan also felt speechless, walking through a large area, even rabbits were rare.

The two had to go deeper again, and it was not until the afternoon that they saw a worthy prey, a steel-maned wild boar, which was just an ordinary beast that could not be sold for a price, and could only be fed.

This time, the father didn't make a move, he was secretly disguised and instructed Shi Xuan to do it. Shi Xuan, carefully digging a pit, burying a trap, using a kind of spiritual grass that wild boars like, to seduce, successfully introduced the wild boar into the trap, and suddenly the wild boar howled and struggled desperately. Shi Xuan came to the side and waited for the wild boar to run out.

The wild boar suffered a trap, and was caught in the thigh by the beast clip, at this moment it was extremely ferocious, Shi Xuan took a breath when he saw it, Shi Xuan took out a bow and arrow and shot three arrows in a row but did not even shoot the fur, the hardness of this wild boar skin can be seen, Shi Xuan father and son are wearing the oldest wild boar skin made of it.

"Daddy, this skin is too hard for my arrows to pierce him. Shi Xuan was helpless in the face of this prey that was about to reach his mouth, and shouted at his father.

"Your bow is not strong enough, look at me. I saw that my father took his hundred-stone bow from afar, drew the bow for the full moon, and shot through the boar's brain with one arrow, and the boar died on the spot.

"It looks like I still have to strengthen my strength training, and I hope I can pull the 100-stone bow that day. Shi Xuan muttered to himself.

"You're still young, and you'll be about the same in a few years. Daddy comforted.

The two hid the wild boar in a safe place and continued to move on, and today was considered a harvest, but it was still early, and they did not want to return.

Climb over the two mountains and come to a low-lying area surrounded by rare dense forests.

Shi Xuan cautiously moved forward, vigilantly observing his surroundings, for fear of scaring his prey.

"Roar"

Suddenly, there was a small low roar, and Shi Xuan fixed his eyes to see that a beautiful demon-patterned leopard cub above the tree in front of him was smiling fiercely at him.

Shi Xuan's head was hot, and he didn't even think about climbing up directly, to catch the cub.

"Come back, Shi Xuan. Daddy shouted in the back, too late to stop it. Shi Xuan, who was agile, jumped down with the cub in his arms and took the cub in his hand to show off to his father. Daddy was taken aback and pulled him to run.

"Daddy, a cub scares you like this. Shi Xuan shouted as he ran.

"The adult demonic leopard is extremely difficult to deal with, it is estimated that it is about to come back from foraging for food, if it finds us dangerous, it must be not far away, go quickly. Daddy urged.

Shi Xuan didn't dare to slack off, the adult demonic leopard was not even easy to deal with his father, he knew that he had stabbed the hornet's nest and ran faster under his feet, but he still refused to let go of the cub.

The two ran away for a long distance, and Shi Xuan felt out of breath and stopped when he felt that there was no danger.

"Oh, does Daddy have any grown-ups, I guess he's gone far?"

"Be careful, yes. "Daddy was looking around.

"This little thing is so beautiful, the milk is fierce, how much can you get for selling it?" Shi Xuan asked.

"You, don't be so reckless next time, it's too dangerous, but this little guy can really sell for a lot of money in the city, and the adult demonic leopard is extremely difficult to tame, and the cub is much easier. If cultivated well, this cub is estimated to be able to evolve to a third-order demonic beast, which will be a good helper at that time, and many cultivators will have some powerful spirit beasts. ”

Shi Xuan was full of joy and was teasing the cub. The little guy was "whooping" and protesting loudly at Shi Xuan.

"Roar"

At this moment, a huge beast roar sounded, Shi Xuan was startled, and the cub in his hand struggled even more.

"Run", the father urged Shi Xuan, and quickly pulled up the bowstring and shot several arrows at the rushing demonic leopard, but the demonic leopard deftly dodged the arrows and rushed to attack.

Shi Xuan ran forward quickly, still not letting go of the cub.

Daddy didn't dare to stop, and shot arrows behind him as he ran, but this guy's speed was simply terrifying, and he was almost close in an instant.

The leopard was furious, no wild beast in this area dared to hit its cubs, and someone stole its cubs as soon as they went out to forage for food today.

Shi Xuan was speechless for a while, this guy is too fast, he ran fast enough, but he was about to catch up with them.

"Child, give me the cub, you run away in the other direction, and I will lure it away. "Daddy has his bow and arrows on his back, and he knows that it will be difficult to hit.

Shi Xuan didn't hesitate, he threw the cub to his father, and after catching it, he threw it in the other direction, Shi Xuan knew that there was no way but to abandon it, and only hoped that his father would not be hurt.

The demonic leopard saw the cub change hands and chased directly after the father, who ran forward desperately.

However, the time was not good, and the road had reached the end of the road, and the boulder in front of him was insurmountable. Daddy confronts the demonic leopard in front of the boulder with his cub in his arms, and draws a boning knife in his other hand, ready to strike at any moment. The demonic leopard did not immediately follow at the moment, but it was surrounded and ready to attack.

Seeing that there was no way out, the father thought that he could only return the cubs, so he took the opportunity to climb the boulder with the hook lock and escape for his life. On the other side, Shi Xuan was worried about his father, so he cautiously followed. Hide behind a large tree and raise your arrows to shoot the demonic leopard at any moment.

The leopard is approaching gradually, seeing that there is no chance, the father throws the cub far away, the leopard hurriedly follows the cub, the short opportunity comes, the father throws the rope around his waist to the top of the stone, and begins to climb quickly, but he still underestimates the speed of the leopard, the leopard takes the cub aside, and begins to chase the father frantically.

Daddy had climbed most of the stone at the moment, and when he was about to reach the top, the leopard ran and jumped several battles high, and suddenly bit Daddy's hind feet, and Daddy was attacked and was directly dragged off the rope.

Daddy slipped to the ground, the leopard immediately pounced on it, Daddy pulled out the boning knife and slashed wildly, temporarily forcing the leopard back, but the leopard, who had already been enraged, was even more furious at the moment, and jumped up and pounced, and Daddy was directly thrown to the ground, and even the knife was knocked to the ground.

"God, I've been a hunter all my life, is I going to be a prey today, I just hope that Xuan'er can escape home safely?"

Just when Dad was about to die in the leopard's mouth, Shi Xuan, who was hiding behind the big tree, couldn't bear it anymore. At this moment, his heartbeat was almost extreme, and the bow and arrow in his hand trembled a little, but his father was about to die in front of him.

"I can, I will. Shi Xuan took a deep breath and no longer hesitated, he would definitely be able to do this hundred steps.

Sou

Sou

Sou

The three arrows were like a divine sword out of the body, drawing three beautiful traces in the air, as fast as thunder, the demonic leopard didn't even react, and even the three arrows fell in response.

The father, who was about to be appointed on the ground, broke out in a cold sweat. He pushed away the demonic leopard pressing on his body, and was still twitching at the moment, bright red blood flowed out along the arrow, and the father directly pulled out the arrow, and the blood flowed out quickly, and the demonic leopard died in a while.

This is Shi Xuan running over quickly to see how his father is injured.

"Daddy, how are you. Shi Xuan picked up the fallen father.

syllable

"Bastard, why are you back again, didn't I let you run away alone? Dad was so emotional that he actually slapped Shi Xuan and looked at him with concern.

"I, I'm worried about you. Shi Xuan said cautiously.

"In the future, you remember, don't take risks easily, if you have something, I won't spare you. Dad rubbed Shi Xuan's face with his hand, "Does it still hurt?"

"Okay, it doesn't hurt, I won't be taking risks in the future, don't be angry daddy", Shi Xuan promised.

Shi Xuan checked his father's injury, and the rest was fine, but the bite on his foot had already seen bones, he took out some prepared ointment and put it on his father, bandaged it with a cloth, and began to pack up the spoils.

"I lost my leg today, and the leopard can't be taken back, so you can skin it now, take the cubs and we'll go back." Dad sat aside to rest and instructed Shi Xuan to do it.

After a while, Shi Xuan peeled off the skin of this beautiful demonic leopard, picked up the fierce cub on the ground, and helped his father to start descending the mountain......

Today, although Shi Xuan and the others are in danger, the harvest this time is also worth it, and more importantly, this time it has taught Shi Xuan a good lesson. It was also the first fierce prey he had hunted, and from now on he could be said to be the first to get started.

Back home, Shi Xuan and her mother looked at the injured Shi Chengyi, tears fell like rain, and asked Shi Xuan to be careful in the future, and Shi Xuan promised many times before listening.

Shi Xuan couldn't sleep all night, he thought carefully about today's gains, and thought that his usual practice of fixed targets was completely different from today's real prey, and he would have to strengthen actual combat practice in the future to improve his archery skills and hunting skills.

In the next few days, the father had to recuperate at home, but Shi Xuan practiced even harder, and every day when he came back, he personally fed the leopard cubs with animal milk, and after a few days, the little one's hostility towards him weakened a lot.

The little guy is not only loved by Shi Xuan, but even a few children in the village can't put it down when they see it, and there are very few people in the village who have caught the cubs of powerful magical beasts.

"Shi Xuan, will the leopard lend me a few days to play, and I will exchange the fire spirit candy with you?" Several children in the village surrounded the cute cubs, and a boy said to Shi Xuan.

"I won't change it, from now on it will be mixed with me, and I will call him a leopard in the future." Shi Xuan refused, although the fire spirit candy was a little tempting, but he still refused.

"Stingy, when I grow up, I'll catch a cub of the Red Rock Demon Tiger and envy you to death," the boy said unconvinced.

Shi Yun said, "Look at your bear-like, you can't even shoot a hundred steps and still want to hunt the Red Rock Demon Tiger, and no one in the village has dared to pay attention to it for many years." ”

"Yes, I remember that a few years ago, several elders in the village took a lot of effort to hunt one, and that guy's tail was as thick as your arm. Another child said.

"What's the use of everyone fighting for these, it's better to practice archery skills well, and then you can hunt good prey in the future," Shi Xuan said.

"I heard that this time, you shot the demonic leopard from a hundred paces away, so can you show us a demonstration?" a child said to Shi Xuan.

"Shi Xuan has long been able to shoot a hundred steps, what is the challenge. Shi Yun said.

"That's a fixed target, this time we want to see you shoot a moving target," said the boy who had swapped cubs with Shi Xuan.

"A moving target is not like an ordinary fixed target, if you can hit it during the move, then it will be much easier to hunt in the future," Shi Yun said.

"You can try," Shi Xuan said.

He remembered that day, even his father had not been able to shoot the demonic leopard in rapid motion. This is too difficult for ordinary people, after all, ordinary people have not undergone cultivation, and neither their spiritual strength nor agility are far from reaching the level of the Demonic Leopard. It's okay for Daddy to shoot some slow-moving prey, but the Demonic Leopard is really beyond his ability.

Shi Xuan really yearns for this archery technique, once he practices it, then he will no longer be afraid of encountering this kind of swift target in the future.

A couple of young children found a few ropes, hung a few targets from a branch, swung them with their hands, and began to practice archery.

Whizzing

One arrow after another flew by, but none of them hit the swinging target, and even Shi Xuan failed to shoot a few times.

Everyone sat there in frustration looking at the swinging target, all sighing. At this moment, Shi Chengyi, who was on crutches, came here to watch them practice. When I saw the target they were hanging, I immediately understood.

"I want to run before I know how to walk, can I not fall?" said Daddy.

Several people saw the elders coming over and greeted them one after another. Shi Chengyi nodded in acknowledgment.

"How can it be so easy to shoot so far at the beginning? Shi Chengyi said.

Shi Yunmali went to slow down the target, Shi Chengyi picked up the bow and arrow, pulled the bow and the full moon, and with a "whoosh", he hit the target.

"When shooting at a moving target, we must be highly mentally concentrated, and seriously perceive the law of movement of the target, and only by grasping the law can we hit the target. Shi Chengyi handed the bow and arrow back to Shi Yun.

Everyone started training again, and this time everyone reduced the distance a lot, and those who could shoot 100 steps practiced 50 steps, and those who could only shoot 50 steps practiced 30 steps. Next, someone keeps hitting the target, and although the probability is small, it finally finds some feeling.

Shi Xuan was practicing the fifty-step target, and he didn't rush to shoot an arrow like the others, but kept his eyes on the moving target, carefully perceiving the laws of movement. At this moment, his spiritual power was concentrated to the extreme, as if he was carefully appreciating a prey at his fingertips, at this moment, he raised his hand, aimed, drew the bow, and released the arrow in one go, three arrows in a row, and the arrow pulled a beautiful line and directly pierced the moving target fifty steps away, and all three arrows hit the target, and several other friends directly dropped their jaws.

Shi Chengyi also felt incredible, at least he couldn't hit the moving target with three arrows in a row.

"Wow, Shi Xuan, are you an arrow god? I shot thirty arrows to hit once, and you actually hit all of them", Shi Yun felt unreal and couldn't believe it.

The kid who wanted to exchange cubs with Shi Xuan said, "It must be the blind cat that touched the dead mouse, try again, you are going to shoot me and give you all my fire spirit candy." ”

Shi Chengyi also wanted to see if Shi Xuan was shot by accident or if he really had some talent.

This time, the child who changed the cub deliberately sped up the speed of the target movement.

Shi Xuan still calmly felt the law of the target, and was not in a hurry to make a move, while the others urged him: "Hurry up, are you not sure?" Shi Xuan seriously felt the changes in the surrounding environment and wind speed, and at this moment his heart was calm, his soul perception reached the extreme, and the agile and elegant three arrows hit the target without any suspense.

Now everyone was quiet, even Dad felt incredible.

Then Shi Yun hugged Shi Xuan excitedly, and several other people were also excited, at this time, the father didn't even have a pestle and ran over happily: "Child, really give me a long face." ”

"Daddy, don't your feet hurt?" Shi Xuan looked at the brisk running father.

"Oops, it hurts me to death, you kid hurt me and I forgot about my foot injury. Dad hurriedly helped Shi Xuan to stand firm.

At this moment, Dad was a little distracted, he vaguely remembered the great man who fell from the sky seven years ago, and thought to himself: Will my Xuan'er be able to reach that height in the future? Daddy knows that Xuan'er is a gifted child, and from childhood to adulthood, he can feel a temperament in him that ordinary people do not have, and that steadiness and dedication to things make them feel ashamed when they are adults.

Dad was a little hesitant at this time, he didn't know if his next decision was right, once Xuan'er embarked on the path of cultivation, he would face countless tests of life and death, even if a powerful master like Xue Longhai raised his hand to cover the sky, he could not escape the domination of fate, Xuan'er's life and future are more likely to bring him fatal disadvantages. But my father was unwilling, he had been a low-level poor all his life, and he suffered all year round

was oppressed and endured humiliation, but now he found a glimmer of hope in his only child, he didn't want to miss it, and he didn't want Shi Xuan to regret it for the rest of his life......

"Daddy, daddy..."Shi Xuan looked at his father in a daze and shouted a few times in a row.

"Oh, it's nothing, you're almost done practicing today, so go home and rest when you're tired. Shi Xuan helped his father and walked home.

A few days later, the people of the Wang family arrived as scheduled, one by one riding high-headed horses, each dragon and tiger figure, the momentum was terrifying, as soon as they entered the village, they were disturbed, and the leader was a powerful scar man, who was not easy to mess with at first glance.

"Uncle Ben, the bastards of Stone Village, have come to collect protection money, give you a stick of incense, and prepare the money quickly, otherwise Uncle will make you look good" Scarface yelled at the village on a tall horse.

"Dad, those bastards are here again", Shi Xuan said to Dad.

"Child, don't be afraid", the father comforted Shi Xuan.

After a while, the villagers came to the entrance of the village one after another, and Shi Xuan also walked out with his father.

"You listen to Lao Tzu, this time the mountain bandits are in turmoil, and the Wang family sent a large number of people to exterminate the horse bandits to protect your villages, of course, there are also losses, so the head of the family decided to increase the protection fee by 100 gold per family this year, and our Wang family will continue to protect your safety. A kobold military advisor next to Scarface said.

"What, each family charges an extra hundred gold, why don't you rob it. ”

"It's too bullying. ”

"How do we live? ”

The villagers immediately fried the pot, and the protection fee has risen again and again over the years, and this year it has risen so much at once, and many families are almost unable to open the pot.

"Wang Taifei, we haven't heard about your Wang family's bandits recently, why did you suddenly increase so much protection fee, how can you make our villagers live. The village chief of Stone Village said.

"Do we want to tell you about the bandits, pay the money obediently, or you will know the consequences," Wang Taifei threatened.

", Lao Tzu is fighting with you", an uncle picked up the boning knife and was about to step forward and fight with the scar-faced Wang Taifei.

"Don't, uncle, you can't even be theirs," Shi Yun shouted.

People didn't have time to stop him, Wang Taifei saw him slashing with a knife, not dodging or dodging, a purple light swept two meters away, and the uncle's head suddenly fell, and blood shot out for a while.

"No, Daddy", a child in tattered clothes screamed and ran over to his knees crying when he saw his father being killed.

The villagers of Stone Village were all frightened, this Scarface's strength was too strong.

"I forgot to tell you, Lao Tzu reached the Ning Yuan Realm a few months ago, and he could have gathered his qi into a blade and cut people invisible, daring to use a knife against Lao Tzu is simply looking for death, my Wang family will charge protection fees who still has an opinion, stand up and let me see if your neck is harder than iron", Wang Taifei shouted arrogantly.

"A group of untouchables dare to be disobedient, and they are simply looking for death," said the kobold military advisor proudly.

The villagers had already dared to be angry, Shi Xuan looked at this group of ugly faces, at this moment he was full of righteous indignation and anger, but there was nothing he could do, the situation was stronger than people, but he secretly swore that in the future, he would definitely pay for the blood debt of these bastards.

This time, the Wang family's strong behavior of collecting money deeply pierced Shi Chengyi's heart, which broke the last obstacle in his heart, the lowly bottom can't even live a humble life, in this life he must Shi Xuan get out of the road that belongs to the strong, only by becoming strong can it be possible to break the shackles of fate, justice can only be written by the strong.

That distant road may be extremely difficult and always in danger, but at least you can control your own destiny, the uncle muttered: "Maybe this is Xuan'er's life." At this moment, he made up his mind to help Shi Xuan step into cultivation, hoping that he would break the shackles of fate and create a future of his own.

The protection fee was finally closed under Scarface's strong suppression, leaving countless poor people with sad tears, but someone will have to pay for this blood debt......

Although the days are hard, but it has to continue, Dad didn't even heal his feet and began to enter the mountain, Shi Xuan's mother and son are difficult to persuade, this time Dad moved the real fire, he is desperate to get enough for Shi Xuan to enter Tianhaiyuan - a special recruit students who have just started, although Tianhaiyuan is far inferior to the strength of the four major families and some powerful mercenary groups, but as a place to teach students, the entry conditions are relatively extreme, as long as the tuition is enough, the qualification requirements are not high. But even so, for the poor people, this money has stopped countless people.

This year, Shi Chengyi inquired early about Tianhaiyuan's admission fee of three hundred gold, and the accumulation of seven or eight years should be enough to pay Shi Xuan's admission fee, but the Wang family was ravaging and plundering, causing his father to have to go into the mountains to hunt with injuries in exchange for tuition. Now, the day of enrollment is approaching, and my dad has entered the mountain more often, and my dad has been haggard for a long time this year.

Shi Xuan is a sensible child, every time he sees his father suffering silently alone, he also empathizes, he helps the family with some housework every day, and recently he has trained harder.
