Chapter Thirty-Nine: The First Half of a Rui Ying's Mortal Life (I) Flowing Water

Zilde in the north of the city, the people around me call me that, because the surnames of the residents in our area are called the north of the city. After all, we are just commoners, how can we have beautiful surnames like those noble lords?

I was born in the city of Ruiying in the year 340 of the Great Calendar, and it is said that until I was 5 years old, the great god of light often appeared in our filthy nether, but at least since I was conscious, I have never heard of the existence of the god of light.

Our family has been poor for generations, and it was only when my father started because he was extremely gifted.

I was my father's first son, and my father had me when he was 19 years old.

My father's name is Gilf, he is in the north of the city, but he is a well-known figure, because he started practicing at the age of 10 and became a Xuanhuang at the age of 15.

The previous generation of the Chengbei magistrate was also very optimistic about my father, so he married his daughter to my father, and my father was grateful for his kindness and faithfully assisted the son of the previous generation of the Chengbei magistrate, and this generation of the Chengbei magistrate was also my father's brother-in-law, my uncle.

After my father took a position in the north of the city, our family was also out of the slums, and at least we were able to live in a better house, of course, I have no impression of my father's life when he was a child, because when I was born, my father had already mixed up and became the chief caretaker of the city gates.

Although in my childhood, I could only eat a little meat every year during the Light Festival, but I was very happy compared to the poor people in the lower classes.

Our family couldn't support me to learn magic, so I had to practice the fighter system, you know, even my uncle's family, every generation of frugality, can only send one son to practice magic.

I started practicing at the age of 5, and officially became a fighter at the age of 7, and entered the white jade level, and my talent can only be said to be neither good nor bad, compared to my father, I am still a little worse.

Under the arrangement of my uncle's family, when I was 10 years old, I got engaged to another relative of my uncle's family.

When I was 12 years old, my family already had 2 younger brothers and 1 younger sister, and my father often said that our family was also going to make a fortune.

However, it was when I was 12 years old that the upheaval happened, shattering my father's dreams.

When I was 12 years old, it was the year 352 of the Great Calendar, right?

A group of black-robed people - I later learned that the organization behind that group of people was called the Hall of Judgment, they broke into my father's house with extreme arrogance, and then easily controlled my father, and after some torture, let my father hand over something, and then killed my father and the second brother who stayed at home because of his cultivation injury.

Their actions were extremely arrogant, and after killing their father, they didn't care about the two servants who were hiding and shivering, they just attacked casually.

Therefore, although the two servants fell ill, they survived.

On that day, I happened to live with my mother, third brother and sister in my uncle's house, so I escaped.

That night, the whole Ruiying was in chaos, and there were fights everywhere.

Then, his uncle's boss told him to order someone to go out, and when he heard this order, his uncle's face turned pale at that time, and he didn't want to go out, saying something about the ruling hall or something.

After hesitating for a long time, the uncle finally feared the punishment from above and had to go out.

Before going out, my uncle told us to use our father's relationship at the city gate to take the whole family that had covered my uncle and escape from Ruiying first.

At the age of 12, I was sent out to rule my father first.

But halfway through, I encountered two groups of people fighting, and I was affected by the aftermath of the battle, and I passed out.

I was woken up by the sound of a bell ringing in the city, usually because something big was going to happen, and my mother used to tell me that when he was a child, every time before the God of Light came, he would ring the bell in Ruiying.

But for the first time since I was born, I heard the bell.

With reverence for the God of Light, I followed the flow of people.

The one who rang the bell was the Hall of Judgment, and the Hall of Judgment told us that the patriarch of this generation had turned away from the God of Light and was a bad person, and now the Hall of Judgment has executed this patriarch and elected a new patriarch, so that everyone can rest assured.

It wasn't until I grew up that I understood what happened on that chaotic night. The conflict between the Hall of Judgment and the Patriarch reached its peak, so in the end, the Temple of Judgment preemptively staged a coup d'état and took control of Seoying.

But that's the big guy thing, and I just care about what's going on in my own home.

Then I got the news like a bolt from the blue, my uncle's house, down. My uncle led the vigilantes to launch an attack on the Hall of Judgment, and was killed by the Temple of Judgment during the attack.

And now the Judgment Palace, the entire Ruiying's security team is being cleaned, replaced by a group of new people, I don't know any of these people, I want to go to my fiancée's house, but it turns out that my fiancée's home has also been affected, and their positions have been removed.

Now they are about to sell their house in the ghetto and move to the ghetto.

In desperation, I had no choice but to look for my mother, but after three days of searching, I could not find them, so I had to go to the slums and look for my uncles, but my uncles hated my family so much that they drove me away.

In the end, I had no relatives and had to go to my fiancée's house again. After some discussion with them, the marriage contract was changed and I became the son-in-law. Although it was a little humiliating, I finally had another place to live anyway.

When I was 14 years old, I became a Xuanhuang level, which seemed to be faster than my father, but you must know that it took me 9 years and my father's cultivation conditions were worse than mine, but it only took 5 years, and I was not as good as my father after all.

When I was 15 years old, they rushed me to marry my 14-year-old fiancée, and their family had to have an extra workforce sooner.

Their family treats me quite badly, usually treating me as free labor or something, Rao is based on my Xuanhuang-level strength, and I often work until my hands and feet are weak.

When I was 18 years old, I had my first son, and in honor of my father, I named my first son Gilf.

When I was 22 years old, I had my first daughter, and in honor of my mother, I named her Gudena.

In the year 363 of the Great Calendar, when I was 23 years old, the patriarch of my wife's family died, and in order to fight for the last bit of family property, everyone was tearing up, and as a son-in-law, I didn't dare to talk more, so I could only work more.

However, I could not escape the whirlpool of strife, I was no longer a son-in-law, my children could use my surname, north of the city, and then my wife and I were kicked out of the family and lived in the slums.

During this period of time, because of the long-term rush for life, I couldn't calm down, and my cultivation speed was very slow, and it seemed that I could only go to Jade at most in my life.

For 17 years, from 363 to 380, I lived a difficult life in the slums, like all the poor people in the slums.

In addition to the eldest son Gilf and the eldest daughter Gudena, my wife and I have had 6 more children in the past 17 years, but because of lack of food and drink, only 4 of them are still alive in the 380th year of the Great Calendar.

In the year 380 of the calendar, I am already 40 years old, my eldest son Gilf is also 22 years old, and has brought me a grandson, the eldest daughter Gudena is 18 years old and has been married, and the second daughter Laika is 15 years old and is also engaged, and is ready to marry this fall, and the second son, who has the same name as me, is also called Zilde, and is only 9 years old this year, and is still with me.

At a time when I was already used to living as a pauper, this year, another big event happened in Ruiying.

At first, the Hall of Judgment said that it was going to execute an evil demon, but in the middle of the execution, another group of people broke into Ruiying, and the two sides fought in Ruiying, and Ruiying once again became a battlefield, which made me feel like I was back 28 years ago, that bloody night.

Unfortunately, my eldest son, Gilf, was stoned to death because of the collapse of his house due to the shock wave of the battlefield, and my wife was also affected and seriously injured, and could no longer do the hard work.

After the death of my eldest son, my daughter-in-law married someone else, and because I was afraid that my grandson would suffer the same thing as I did when I was a child, I adopted my 3-year-old grandson, who was also named Zilde.

In order to distinguish the three of us, the neighbors called me old Zilde, my son big Zilde, and my grandson little Zilde.

In the year 382 of the Great Calendar, I was stuck in the Xuanhuang level for 28 years, and finally became the jade level at the age of 42.

In the year 388 of the Great Calendar, another major event occurred, I heard that some city in the north had rebelled, and now the Judgment Hall wanted to gather men and horses to crusade against them.

The sheriff originally wanted my son, the 17-year-old Dazilde, to be a conscription, but my son had just married a wife, so how could he leave now? Although I was 48 years old, for the sake of me being jade and my son was still white jade, the sheriff let me go.

So, at the age of 48, I left Ruiying for the first time.

After a long journey, I finally followed the army to a place called the Imperial Enemy Pass, where I received the baptism of war for the first time.

In the army I was in, when I stormed the enemy pass for the first time, my unit was lucky not to be mobilized, and during the second attack, my unit was the last wave to be mobilized, and it didn't take long for the attack to come back, and I didn't kill a single person.

But luck didn't stay with me all the time, and the third wave of my troops was the first to take the lead.

I followed the others and rushed towards the enemy pass, but unfortunately, I only rushed halfway to the other side, and was shot by the opponent's long-range weapon, although my jade-level combat power will not lose its combat effectiveness like this, but I don't want to fight it.

So I just quickly stopped the bleeding and moved to a safe place where I prayed for a quick end to the fight.
