The moon stars are scarce, and the black magpie flies south.

The ancestral hall of Yangjiabao was still brightly lit, and several elders did not leave for a long time, waiting for the great elder to come back from the back garden.

"Second child, don't you think there's something strange about this?" said a middle-aged man with a long beard, who asked tentatively as he touched his beard.

"Old five, can't we see it? This thing is wrong, Yang Yi's stupid boy is just a scapegoat!" The old man in a blue brocade dress made himself a cup of tea, moistened his throat and continued, "Third child, don't pretend, Yang Xiong is your baby, the ruthlessness in his eyes just now, I am a little afraid to see it, if you want to say that the kid is fine, I don't believe it!"

With his eyes closed, the third child with his back to the second and fifth children shook his head, sighed, and finally spoke: "Yang Yi's fool is wronged, we all know it, but now someone has to take the blame, who will carry it?"

"Yang Hu? The son of the Great Elder, the future star of Yang Jiabao or the fifth of your family's six-star Contradictionist Yang Bao? That eldest lady's anger is not so easy to bear! Do you dare to let them take responsibility?"

When it came to the eldest lady, the three of them were silent.

A quarter of an hour later, the Great Elder staggered back to the ancestral hall with his tired body.

"Boss, what's wrong with you?" the old man in the blue brocade robe hurriedly stepped forward and helped the eldest elder to sit on the Taishi chair, and the middle-aged fifth man with a long beard hurriedly poured a cup of ginseng tea and hurriedly brought it over.

The Great Elder lifted the lid of the cup, drank the ginseng tea, coughed lightly twice, and a mouthful of reddened blood instantly stained the porcelain cup carved with plum blossoms, and the fifth elder gently patted the back of the Great Elder, his eyes were full of anticipation.

"No problem!"

At this moment, the Great Elder's face was tired, completely different from the image of the crane's childish face just now, he slowly got up with the handle of the Taishi chair, and spoke in everyone's expectation, "The matter is settled, Miss Zhao will not pursue our Yang Jiabao!"

The third child's clenched hands were also loosened in the words of the Great Elder, they are all smart people, since Miss Zhao is willing to forgive them, this matter will be over, but how to solve the aftermath.

"Boss, thank you for your hard work!" the three elders sincerely thanked him, and it could be seen that the eldest elder had paid a lot of money to pray for Miss Zhao's forgiveness this time, and the pillars of Yangjiabao in Fox City were not so easy to be.

"Boss, what should I do next?" It was the fifth child who still spoke, he was anxious, and he was panicked in his heart.

"What else can I do!Wait!"

"What are you waiting for!"

"Old Five, don't panic, let the boss say!" The third elder couldn't help but interrupt, this fifth elder cultivated well, but his personality was too impatient and difficult to succeed.

"Wait for the fourth child to come back and discuss! Now there is only a public claim that Yang Yi trespassed on the forbidden land of the Yang family, and after the seven-day family test, if the fourth child has no objection, let Yang Yi marry Xiaocui, which can be regarded as letting him have a home. The Great Elder raised his head to stare at the bright moon hanging in the night sky, and said lightly.

Xiaocui is the maid sent by Yang Jiabao to Miss Zhao, she is clever and good-looking, and many sons want to admit her into the room.

······

Fox City, Yangjiabao, back mountain thinking over the cliff.

The thinly dressed boy sat alone beside the nameless monument of Siguo Cliff, looking at the stars in the sky, and the wind was gusting.

The young man sneezed three times in a row, the Great Elder was really excessive, he had to undress himself if he went to think about it, was this punishing his behavior of not kneeling just now?

"Hehe······" The young man sighed, shook his head, showed a bitter smile, remembering the scene just now, he couldn't help but hang his head again, and his eyes gradually darkened.

"This thief, I'll wipe it!" angrily punched a few hard punches at the cold slate, and his depressed mood seemed to have stretched a lot, and the young man found a grassy place to lie down on his back in the moonlit Siguo Cliff, and began to recall the past.

The boy remembered things when he was a little more than six years old, and at that time he liked to sit on his father-in-law's shoulders and watch plays in the market of Fox City, and it was during that time that he gradually began to understand the world.

The land under his feet is called the Star Continent, and soul power is the main tone of this continent.

People have three souls and seven spirits, and the three souls are the heavenly soul fetal light, the earth soul cool soul and the earth soul ghost.

In this continent, the level of force depends on the amount of soul power, and the amount of soul power depends on the strength of the three souls.

The stronger the continent, the more resources they get on this continent, and the weaker the strength can only live at the bottom, as has been the case in all dynasties.

Yang Yi, who has listened to the drama since he was a child, also dreamed that one day he could awaken his soul power, turn over the clouds like the soul king in the opera, stand on the top of Fox Mountain, and enjoy the admiration of thousands of people.

"Wait!" the boy jerked up from the ground, and when he was a child, he often said in the drama that there is no endless road!

There are many strong people who rely on adventures to soar into the sky when they encounter a desperate situation, and the most plot is that the protagonist leaves a cruel word, and then leaps down from the cliff to find a peerless exercise or anti-heaven elixir.

The mountain behind Yangjiabao is very high, how high it is, no one knows, at least five stories high, right?

Yang Yi climbed to the top of the mountain lightly, his legs were a little weak, and the bottomless black made him tremble.

"Should I shout two sentences before jumping?"

"But I jumped, what should Daddy do?

"Wealth and danger are sought, Yang Yi, if you want to get rid of the infamy of a fool, don't be cowardly!"

"Okay! If it's a man, don't be cowardly, jump! I'll jump!"

About an hour later, the boy fell asleep on the ground, snoring on the cliff, he was only a boy, not a man.

······

"Well, it smells so good!"

Yang Bao grabbed the leg meat on the wooden stick and tore a piece of it fiercely, and said while chewing, "Yang Xiong, we ate the fool's dog, will it make him jump off the wall in a hurry!"

"Yes! Yang Yi's fool has no one to play with him on weekdays, only this dog, now that we have slaughtered it, you say he is not in a hurry!"

Yang Xiong took a sip of wine and said with a calm face, "If it were usual, I would be a little more afraid, but now I'm not afraid, didn't I listen to what the Great Elder said, and I will deal with it separately after the seven-day soul power test!"

"What do you mean?" Yang Bao didn't quite understand, the soul power test after seven days could be said to be an annual event in Yangjiabao.

If Yang Yi's stupid boy had exposed their scandal at that time, I am afraid that he would have received much less resources in the family.

He is not like Yang Xiong who has the support of the three elders, and he is not as good as Yang Hu who has the father of the great elder.

"Do you think that fool will pass the test?" the corners of Yang Xiong's mouth rose slightly, and this touch of sarcasm rose from his heart.

"Of course not!" Yang Bao bit the piece of meat in his hand again, this dog meat is rich in flavor and taste, but I didn't expect Yang Yi's stinky boy's skill in raising dogs is good.

"The Yang family doesn't keep useless people, after the family test is over in seven days, that stupid boy will be expelled from the house!

"Brother Leopard is amazing! I can think of this, I have long seen that stupid boy unhappy, and the fourth elder is too, collecting elixirs for him everywhere, this is a waste of resources of Chiguoguo, come, Brother Leopard have a drink!"

"It's done!"

······

The next day, the silky mist slowly passed through the gaps between the jungles, and the rising sun gently shone on the scattered roots, and a drop of crystal dew between the branches could not withstand the slight caress of the breeze, and slowly fell, gently falling on the young man's immature face.

When he opened his eyes, the boy couldn't help but open his palms to block out the somewhat dazzling sunlight.

"It's dawn!" yawned, under the light of the warm sun, the young man's edges and corners were particularly distinct, with a hint of melancholy in his dark eyes, the bridge of his nose was a little firm, and his two lips were pursed.

Rolling around from the cold ground and stretching again, the young man sat up, rubbed his red and swollen eyes, and said to himself, "Yesterday was really angry, and I actually shed tears again, by the way, I was thinking about the cliff?"

The boy remembered last night's struggle, and stood up from a carp on the ground, last night he couldn't see how high the cliff was, and now it's daytime, I, Yang Yi, will take a good look.

Step by step to the top of the mountain, the young man's legs kept trembling, this cliff was much more terrifying during the day than at night, at least the mountains could not be seen at night, and he could not judge how far this distance was.

Those who don't know are not afraid, that's what they say.

Shaking his head bitterly, Yang Yi was a little annoyed with himself, why not be brave, yes, he was afraid, who in this world is not afraid of death, ants still steal life, let alone as the master of this world?

Even if he is only the most neglected person in Yangjiabao, he still has a powerless fear of death.

Sighing gloomily, Yang Yi walked back to Siguo Cliff, facing the wordless monument, his eyes were blank, let him think, what did he think?

"Yi'er!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came into Yang Yi's ears.

"It's the father-in-law!"

Yang Yichang let out a long breath, turned his head, and said with a smile in the jungle, "Father-in-law, are you back?"

With the swaying of the branches, a middle-aged man with a big beard walked out of the bushes, his smile overflowing, and his squinting eyes stared straight at the boy in the morning light.

Dressed in a gorgeous cyan robe, there was a kind of arrogance that could not be concealed between his gestures, this middle-aged man was the fourth elder of Yang Jiabao in Fox City, and he was also Yang Yi's father-in-law, the five-star great soul master, Yang Chen.

"Father-in-law, you're back!" Looking at the middle-aged man, Yang Yi showed a knowing smile.

Since he can remember, his father-in-law has cared for him, even if he failed many family tests, his father-in-law never gave up, on the contrary, he doted on him a little more.

For a long time, as long as there was news of the elixir around, the father-in-law would get up and go to find it, trying every means to get it, but the heavens were like a joke with him, and even the second-grade elixir soul pill could not make Yang Yi condense his soul power.

"Yi'er, guess what your father-in-law brought back to you?" the middle-aged man said with a smile as he strode forward.

Yang Yi looked at his father-in-law's white beard, and his heart suddenly soured, time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, his father-in-law has aged a lot, and he has really worked too hard over the years.

"Daddy, don't go out in the future, okay?" Yang Yi's nose was a little sore, and he choked up when he spoke.

"Yi'er, can't you call my father know, my father-in-law is not qualified to be your father, your father is a handsome man among people, a generation of heroes. ”

Yang Chen waved his hand, his eyes were full of reverence, thoughtful, and seemed to be recalling some pictures.

"No! That man doesn't deserve to be my father! I never saw him growing up, and you never told me who he was! But it doesn't matter, I just know that you are my father, a father who is dear to me than my own father!"

Yang Yi rushed into the arms of the middle-aged man with an arrow step, and his tears wet the sleeves of the middle-aged man's clothes.

Gently patting Yang Yi's back, Yang Chen raised his head, his eyes flickered a little, Yi'er, grow up.

"Don't talk about this, Yi'er, this is the Soul Breaking Pill that your father-in-law got for you from the Eastern Regions Chamber of Commerce, you take it quickly!" After waiting for Yang Yi's mood to calm down, Yang Chen took out a transparent jade bottle from his sleeve and stuffed it into Yang Yi's hand.

Yang Yi didn't refuse, but the helplessness in his eyes, Yang Chen saw pain in his eyes.

After being silent for a moment, Yang Yi still didn't take it, and Yang Chen said, "Yi'er, in seven days, it will be the family soul power test." ”

"Yes, Father. Yang Yi smiled bitterly before responding.

"Yang Jiabao has family rules, sixteen years old can't condense soul power, you have to drive out of the family, if you can't succeed this time, your father-in-law will accompany you, by the way, your father-in-law also gave you a marriage, Yang Xiaocui, you grew up together since childhood······"

Yang Chen quickly changed the topic, and took a deep breath after speaking, as the third elder said, some people are destined to be just ordinary people by nature, and changing their lives against the sky will only increase sadness.

In the second half of the night of the Shangyuan Festival, Yang Chen hurried back from outside, and before he could fix it, he was called to the ancestral hall by the deacon of the Elders' Hall.

After listening to the second elder's statement, he didn't believe that his Yi'er would do such an obscene and vulgar thing, but there was always someone on Miss Zhao's side who had to bear it.

The Great Elder has already received a slap, and now Yi'er is thinking about the cliff punishment, plus the family soul power test in seven days, in order to save Miss Zhao's name, and for the rest of Yi'er's life.

Maybe it's not bad to let Yi'er leave the Yang family and spend the rest of her life with Xiaocui, but he is a little unwilling!

"Father, Miss Zhao's matter is not done by me, don't worry, I will work hard, I will not embarrass you in the family test in seven days!" Yang Yi didn't want to talk too much about yesterday's events, since several elders had already decided that what was the point of relying on his stepfather's strength alone, it would only bring endless depression and troubles to his stepfather.

"This kid has always been like this! he doesn't want me to worry, alas!" After a silent sentence in his heart, Yang Chen touched Yang Yi's head and said with a smile, "Okay, my father-in-law believes you, hurry up and take the pill, I still have something to do, so I'll go first." ”

After speaking, Yang Chen left with his head held high, and only Yang Yi was left alone on the cliff.

Let go of his right hand, the transparent jade bottle in the palm of his hand glowed with spiritual light under the morning light.

Yang Yi walked slowly to the top of the cliff, took off the red silk on the jade bottle, and resolutely took the three-grade pill - Soul Breaking Pill.

"Father, Yi'er won't disgrace you!"
