Twilight.

Cars come and go.

Night.

Crowds are thinning.

When the sky is full of stars.

There is no one left.

Blade walks on the empty and lonely road.

He left the city without hiring any drivers, and even turned down the kindness of many friendly passers-by and convoys who wanted to give him a ride.

Since it was a travel, he was prepared to measure the earth as much as possible, rather than rushing through the motions.

The road ahead, the lush vegetation around it, and the moonlight, everything was covered with a mysterious and hazy halo.

The insects on both sides are chirping endlessly, and the sound of cooing comes from time to time.

I don't hear the endless roar of fighting in the primeval forest.

This is due to the fact that the Heaven Dou Empire regularly cleans up these places.

In the surrounding forest, there are three or two big cats and kittens, but there are almost no powerful soul beasts.

Blade stopped, looking up at the half-round moon.

The stars exude a mesmerizing starlight.

It's not too early.

He prepares to cultivate, and then rests.

That tree over there is a pretty good look.

"Squeak!"

When Blade reached the bottom of the tree, a sharp warning sounded from the book.

Blade stopped.

On the trees, between the branches, behind the leaves, a pair of small vigilant eyes stared at the blade under the tree.

"Squeak?" There were a few small squeaks of confusion higher up in the trees.

"Squeak!"

The warning sounded again, only this time it was noticeably more urgent than the last.

That's right.

Blade arched his hand apologetically at the figure hidden behind the foliage and turned away.

Those eyes were a little puzzled, but they also let out a long breath, this uninvited guest is gone.

It watched the blade disappear before it completely let go of its carrying.

It deftly climbed up the trunk of the tree.

"Squeak."

It's okay.

It looked at a few little ones in the grass nest who were looking at him curiously with small eyes open.

"Squeak."

Hug.

It arched its head and then fell into the warm grass nest after arching the little ones.

A few little ones who were awakened happily snuggled up to it and fell asleep again.

But it did not dare to sleep, because its mate had gone out to forage for food a few days earlier and never returned......

"Well, it's not bad here, either."

The knife looked at the two small trees that were not far apart and were not too big and nodded with satisfaction, this distance, this thickness.

That's right! That's the best choice for making a hammock!

And because of its sparse foliage, there are no towering trees around, and you can directly look at the starry sky. If you can't sleep, you can count how many stars there are in the sky.

It was so perfect!

Just do it, he never hesitates to knife someone.

There are ready-made hammocks in the soul guide, which he prepared in advance, and there are pots and pans, all kinds of flavorings, and a lot of pure water, dry food, herbs and so on.

A pair of small hands can help Blade solve a lot of problems, and it's really simple to build a small hammock or something.

I went up and experienced the specific feeling, and Blade was very satisfied.

But now is not the time to sleep.

So what is he going to do?

Of course, it is cultivation, and daily cultivation is essential.

A layer of bright stones is laid on the ground, and the blade is then spread on the branches and leaves of the wild grass collected around it, so that it is comfortable to sit on and conceal the white light it emits, killing two birds with one stone.

However, in order to avoid some blind creatures coming to do something, such as the poisonous snake hiding in the grass opposite, Blade had to do some preparations.

A layer of powder with a faint pungent smell covered a radius of more than ten meters.

The little snake lurking in the grass didn't move, which made Blade wonder if the shopkeeper had secretly sold him a fake.

Not really, right? Is it really fake, can't he smell someone's knife?

Don't look at it, it smells just a little pungent on the blade, but when you get to these poisonous insects or something, it's tantamount to a foul smell!

"It's really a snake with perseverance, since that's the case, there's no way to do it."

Blade sighed softly, and the black iron sword he had personally built appeared in his hand and walked towards it.

But I never thought that when the blade took the second step, it would fly in the opposite direction to the blade!

……

Blade silently watched it leave: "It's quite sharp, so let's spare your life." ”

After putting away the black iron, he went to cultivate, but this was not a deep cultivation.

During the cultivation period, some guests came to the vicinity of Blade's perception, but they all left consciously, which made Blade very comfortable - it saved the effort of sending them on their way.

By the end of the necessary daily practice, the land was silent except for the loose chirping of insects.

The starlight is scattered, and the full moon is offset.

The woods, which should have been secluded, are being shrouded in a hazy white, and there is a strange divine beauty.

Blade lay in a hammock, one foot shaking, his head resting on his arm, his bright eyes staring blankly at the stars, fading into a blur.

He remembered his mother.

The meteor streaked by, and he gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Rest assured, Mother.

I'm going to live well.

……

The night was fine, and it was still the day when Blade woke up.

After a simple wash he put away the hammock and by the way will linger on the traces.

As for the medicinal powder everywhere, a rain will solve all the problems.

Out of the forest and back on the road.

The map is spread out on the ground and the blade is in hand.

According to the map, you will be able to reach Twilight in about half an hour.

I just walked for a short time after putting away the map.

The sound of horses and carts was heard from behind.

It's not surprising that although the sky is full of stars, there are always people who have already gotten up.

It's not that they don't want to sleep comfortably in the warm and soft quilt, it's just that for the sake of life, for the sake of food, clothing, housing and transportation for the family, there is no way.

The blade retreated to the side of the road, so as not to get in the way.

"Drive!"

The sound is cluttered, it's a convoy.

The sound grows louder.

The driver at the front looked at the blade walking in front of him in some surprise.

Is there anyone walking alone on this road at this time? It looks like he's still a young man, and he can't really see it between light and shadow, but he should be a beautiful young man.

If he didn't mind stopping and giving the young man a ride, he wouldn't have been able to stop.

Blade turned around and nodded far away to the middle-aged coachman who was driving rapidly in this direction, which was regarded as a greeting.

Seeing this, the middle-aged coachman also nodded, and then put his eyes back to the front, and pulled down a whip, the strength was actually not heavy, and shouted: "Drive!" ”

The cars drove over the blade one by one.

A faint fishy smell came with the sound of water waves crashing against the wooden box.

The traffic faded away.

Ben is still a shining star, silently hidden in the void.

The moon is almost gone.

Blade sits on top of a wagon carrying fresh melons and fruits.

Why is he so depraved? He's the man who wants to measure the earth!

Actually, it's nothing, it's just that Blade wants to go into the city for breakfast.

This is an old man who is driving, and I heard the old man say that these melons and fruits are home-grown, and they are very fresh.

And the use of natural fertilizer, the amount of fertilization is full of two, definitely not like other companies in order to save some effort to lack two pounds.

The old man was going to go into the city to send it to the shopkeeper, and he sighed: "My melon and fruit are definitely the best, if it weren't for the fierce competition in the Heaven Dou Imperial City, and it was a little far away, I would have to pull it over there for anything." ”

Blade took a bite of the big cucumber that the old man had stuffed into him, and said with a smile: "Each has its own benefits, you can come here more easily, but why doesn't the uncle give these to your son?" ”

The old man smiled, his face full of pride: "Hehe, that kid in my family is much more promising than me, he is a soul master, and he is still twenty-three levels!"

Our Chen family's ancestral tomb is really smoking, and a golden phoenix flies out of the grass nest! Twenty-third level soul master, not to mention in our village, even the surrounding villages are all unique!

Because of this, I was called 'Chen Lao' by the township, which is a treatment that the village chief does not have! And this kid from my family has also joined the Martial Spirit Palace, which is a good organization......"

Listening to the old man's chatter, the blade gnawed on the cucumber and listened quietly.

Along the way, I also encountered a lot of burning vehicles passing the old man, who told the old man to drive the car slowly?

The old man was annoyed every time he was overtaken.

"This turtle son! If only twenty years ago, old man, I could have overtaken you?! ”

Blade smiled and shook his head, the old man was scolding, but the car was stable.

Listening to the old man's chatter, the sky gradually brightened.

A city appeared in the distance.

Another carriage passed the old man.

"This turtle son! What about reincarnation? If you could overtake my car when I was younger, I'd eat it all! ”

Blade smiled and said, "That's." ”

At the city gates.

An old man turned around and saw that it was the old man's carriage and horse approaching, and greeted him with a smile: "Lao Chen! ”

The old man replied, "Lao Li".

When he got closer, Blade smiled and nodded to this old Li.

Lao Li returned the salute with a smile, and then looked at Lao Chen and said, "Lao Li! Isn't this the 'our boy' you've been saying in my ear all day? ”

Lao Chen shook his head and said: "Don't talk nonsense, this young man I met on the road, and he is also going to the city to run errands, since he is on the way, won't he come together?" ”

Lao Li smiled: "Earlier, you old boy scared me, I was still thinking about how it was possible for you to have such a beautiful son like a bear!" ”

"Yo he! Looks like you want me to fix it for you, right?! ”

The old man was gearing up.

"Don't, don't, I'm afraid of you, I saw you beat me up when I was drunk last time. …”

Blade didn't interject, he listened quietly, and from the small talk, he knew that the two old men were not from the same village, but they seemed to have gone out to work together when they were young.

When he entered the city, Blade smiled and said goodbye to the old man, "Thank you, uncle." ”

The old man smiled and waved his hand: "As soon as it's a trivial matter, I won't be verbose, and if I don't send the goods over, I'll have to scold my mother over there!" ”

Blade smiled, "Yes, then you walk slowly." ”

The old man smiled and nodded, and then raised his whip: "Drive!" ”

The sound was loud, but the whip was still fluttering when it fell.

Of course, Blade knew that the old man was reluctant to exert himself, and remembered that the old man had said that this horse had been with him for more than twenty years.

After getting along for a long time, there are always feelings.

After the old man's figure slowly disappeared, Blade prepared to go to breakfast.

The day has begun.

Well, what to eat?
