A vast cosmic plane, within the Confucianism and Taoism plane

Shengyuan Continent, the border land of the Wu Kingdom

During the Qingming Dynasty, the old ancient road has long been overgrown with weeds, and a breeze blows, bringing a faint smell of blood.

Among the weeds not far away, the remaining rain washed the ground, and a group of several people nervously gathered together, and on the ground between several people, there was a young man with a beautiful face.

"Wood, wake up, wake up!"

The boy looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, his body was very thin, and there was a wound on his abdomen, even after a simple bandage, still oozing blood.

On the side of the boy and the others, there was also a corpse lying on the ground.

It's just that the corpse is not human, but a wolf demon.

Broken branches and leaves of broken wood all around, and the marks of battle on the ground.

Clearly, there had been a terrible battle here.

"Boss, what should I do, I can't just watch the wood die."

Among the several people surrounding the boy, the first one was a burly man, with a solemn and serious expression on his face at the moment.

It seemed that he hesitated and struggled for a long time, and finally made up his mind.

"Let's go, send the wood back to the gate."

The burly man made up his mind that even if he went back this time, he would face prison, but he had no regrets.

"Huh?"

With a soft mutter, the young man under him opened his eyes, and the qi and blood on his face recovered a little.

"Wood is awake, awake."

"Boss, the wood is awake."

“………”

A few people in the group breathed a sigh of relief, and the seriousness and solemnity just now retreated a little.

"What's wrong with me?"

There was no light in his eyes, and he looked at the few people in front of him in a daze, as if the memories that had been sleeping for a long time poured into his mind.

His name is Chen Mu, and he is an ordinary soldier on the border of Wuguo, who was injured because he was in charge of peripheral reconnaissance and vigilance, and encountered a wolf demon.

"Boss."

Glancing at the burly man in front of him, Chen Mu's mouth was light, and at the same time, he slowly stood up from the ground.

The man on the side hurriedly stepped out and helped Chen Mu up.

"You kid, it's not dead, okay!"

patted Chen Mu's shoulder, and the huge force made Chen Mu's small body shake, involving the wound in his abdomen.

Looking down, the hideous wound was still oozing with traces of blood, and Chen Muzhi, who was in pain, gritted his teeth.

"Are you still resisting?"

Looking at Chen Mu's painful expression, Dahan was also a little uneasy.

"Boss, don't worry, you can't die."

endured the pain, grinned, experienced a lot, this kind of injury is just resistant.

"Well, okay, monkey, dispose of the corpse, and we'll go back."

After glancing around, he gave an order, the burly man helped Chen Mu, and the group walked towards the depths of the weeds.

The weed-infested land, the meadow more than one person high, has long been cleared out of a simple temporary place to live.

There were no simple tents or anything like that, only simple traces of fire, and some utensils and sundries for storing water.

Chen Mu looked at it, and a familiar feeling came to his heart.

He and the others are just spies on the periphery of the border of the Wu Kingdom, and they are responsible for reconnoitring the periphery of the border.

The dangers are self-evident.

The group cleaned up briefly, and soon, among the nearby weeds, a man called Monkey came back.

Although the man is called a monkey, he is not as thin as Chen Mu at all, on the contrary, the other party is tall and strong, and his strength is only below that of a big man.

It's just that because the man is calm, quick-thinking, and shrewd like a monkey, everyone calls him a monkey when he comes and goes.

"Boss, it's done."

The monkey nodded at the burly man and said a word.

The corpse of the wolf demon was not brought back, but only a wolf demon leg.

Several people are in charge of guarding the perimeter, and they can only go back at a fixed time, and the rest of the time, they need to patrol the vast wasteland.

"Deal with this and make up for the wood today."

There was a smile on the face of the big man, this time he was on alert, and he encountered a wolf demon, which was a real military feat, and no one died.

It's worth celebrating.

A few people not far away were dealing with it, while Chen Mu was lying on the grass, deep in thought.

This familiar scene, the time when he was injured and unconscious, for him, it was like a dream.

He dreamed that he had become a cultivator, who could cross the void in the air, who could wave his hand to break the river, and destroy the stars with a sword, shining incomparably.

"Hehe, it looks like a dream."

Clenched his fists, and a feeling of weakness and weakness struck, and compared to the dream, it really couldn't be compared.

"Here, wood, make up for it."

The burly man walked over and handed a piece of wolf demon meat in his hand, on the wasteland, although it is dangerous, it can also eat things that cannot be eaten in the territory.

Chen Mu took it and took a bite, the meat was delicious, and after entering the mouth, there was a stream of life essence pouring into his body, slowly recovering Chen Mu's injuries.

It's a strange world, where there are humans, but at the same time, there are demons.

Humans and demons have been fighting each other all the time.

It's just that the mainstream of the battle is not them, but between those great sages of the demon race and the sons of the human race.

It is said that the saints of this world can open the heavens and shatter the void.

However, Chen Mu had never seen and did not know what the difference between those saints and what he saw in his dreams.

…………

Time flies, and three years fly by.

In the border land of the Martial Kingdom, rows of elite soldiers in black armor escorted carriages, all of which were magnificent and full of scholarly atmosphere.

When the group came to the border pass, the carriage stopped, and on the carriage headed by the leader, an old man came down, the old man had a childish face, was in good spirits, raised his head slightly, looked at the majestic border pass, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's been many years, but I didn't expect to have the opportunity to come back today."

muttered to him, and in the carriage behind him, a group of hurried teenagers got out of the carriage and walked over.

The teenagers glanced at each other, their eyes were picky, and they were a little careless and disdainful.

"Stampede ............"

When the sound of hurried footsteps came, I saw a man in dark armor walking over to the border pass.

The man walked with a tiger-like demeanor, a steady pace, and a breathtaking momentum all over his body.

"Disciple meets the teacher!"

The man came straight and saluted respectfully to the white-haired old man.

"No, let's get up."

The white-haired old man chuckled lightly, stretched out his hand, and caught the other party's bowing gesture.

"You have become a great Confucian, how can you bow down again."

The white-haired old man scolded in his mouth, and the man on the side also laughed.

"Teacher, are you here for?"

The man straightened his clothes, looked at his teacher in front of him, and couldn't help asking.

"Oh, this is what Your Majesty meant, these are new talents, you can arrange it."

A holy decree was handed to the man, which was a secret decree that the man did not know in advance.

Glancing at the contents of the secret decree, the man only felt a chill in his heart.

However, after taking a look at his teacher's calm and relaxed appearance, he also made a decision.

"Come on, arrange the soldiers, and escort these people out of the customs."
