Volume 1 Sleep Chapter 1 Night Turmoil

The nights in Startown are always exceptionally calm.

Since the Yan Clan experienced a rebellion against the enemy and was suppressed by the Tian Yuan Council by thunderous means, this small place with only one place name on the mainland territory has lost its only shelter, chaos derives order, and the balance has tilted. Once nightfall, except for those gangsters who live on blood, ordinary people can only guard their own acres and thirds of land, praying that the sun will rise as usual tomorrow. Because they couldn't predict whether some desperate outlaw would drag him out of the bed and smash him to death on the green stone steps in front of his house in the next moment, without even a person to collect the body.

Compared to this, the legend of the Shura demon spirit, which is usually popular in the market, is simply too cute.

To the east of the town, an ocean-going port.

The moon sank into the clouds, and the stench of the carcasses of rotting sea beasts in the sea breeze whistled like the neighing of evil spirits through the rows of freighters lying in the bay.

Whose territory is here, everyone in Star Town knows it, and the murderous name of the black shark can be used to stop the cry of a child, in his words--"Whoever dares to provoke me, I don't mind a few more pen holders and a few carpets, as long as your leg bones are thick enough and your skin is strong enough." β€œ

Pulling the beard of Lord Yama, only a brainless guy would dare to do this.

And there are two such guys at the moment.

In the alley directly opposite the stockpiling warehouse, two thin figures huddled behind abandoned trolleys. The green-haired rats foraging for food in the middle of the night scurried around, their scarlet eyes radiating a fierce light of desire in the dark night, and they did not pay any attention to these two "sculptures".

"Big ...... Big bull, it's sniffing me!"

The young man at the back of his body stared at the green-haired rats circling around him, beads of sweat oozing from his nose, and his white face was full of fear, he lightly touched his companion who was engrossed in probing the door of the warehouse in front of him, and whispered.

"Don't move, idiot, do you want to die!

"But ......"

"Shut up, I regret it now, it was really a mistake to bring you here. The boy named Da Niu gritted his teeth and rebuked, but he still removed a loose wooden strip from the trolley and drove away the source of fear for his frightened companions. The green-haired rat screamed and fled, and the two little ones immediately held their breath and tried their best to hide their bodiesβ€”the sentry at the gate of the warehouse was already alert, and the rune lamp shone straight into the narrow deep alley, like the gaze of Hades sweeping, and the censorship of death staggered the shadows.

"Hey, man, what's wrong?"

"Ha, it's okay, a couple of hungry rats. ”

"Cheer up, the next shipment will arrive soon, but don't make any mistakes. ”

"Is there anyone who doesn't have long eyes who dares to fight our Black Shark Gang?"

"You'd better swallow that back in your stomach unless you think you've lived enough!"

"Hey, that's ......"

The sound at the entrance of the alley echoed, the lights dimmed, and the two daring boys quietly breathed a sigh of relief. The big cow with slightly curly hair and dark skin glared fiercely at his cow who was cowering, grinded his teeth and said, "Damn, look at the good things you did." ”

"If you don't want to be hung on the mast, then you give me a good job. He continued to poke his head out and watch carefully, as for the timid companion, he didn't have the time to appease, in fact, this guy who was a little "different" in the orphanage, he had not been very treated, he loved to be clean and well-behaved, and he could still recognize the words in the villain book that made him a head or two big, and he looked like a rich boy, if it wasn't for a certain time when he broke the old dean's private old cellar and this guy stood up to help him share his mistakes, he would never have half a friendship with the other party.

"I think ......," said Childe resignedly, "we shouldn't do this, the black shark will skin us, and I've heard others say that children are the same." ”

A wave of anger rose in Da Niu's chest, and he looked back at the coward who lowered his head because of his weak heart, and said fiercely: "You are a soft egg, broom star, I should be single-handed, if you want to leave, hurry up, but before that, you better pray that there will be food tomorrow, not only you, but also Duo'er, Xiaobao, and frog them!"

The fair-skinned young man's face flushed, and his throat felt like a fish bone was stuck, and he felt a faint pain.

"Listen, Chi Yu. Da Niu was deflated, his childish face was full of exhaustion and sadness, "You are the only one among us who has a decent name, and everyone envies you, so don't let me look down on you like a bad seed, the old man is gone, we can only rely on ourselves." ”

He paused, and some reddened eyes flashed fiercely: "I'm just asking for some interest tonight, this revenge, I will avenge it sooner or later, I swear"

Just a month ago, Deng Lao, the only old man in the town who did not hesitate to spend his family wealth to adopt a street child, got on the boat of the black shark and has not been seen since. None of the younger children in the orphanage understood, but he knew that the demons who ate people and didn't spit out bones didn't understand what mercy and kindness were.

Ji Yu gently held his hand and nodded determinedly.

In the distance, the harbor was turbulent, wave after wave lapping against the boats, and the oil lamps hanging from the eaves of the ships shook uneasily, like a pair of eyes of man-eating sea beasts, and the night began to be unpeaceful.

"Woohoo"

The cale whistle sounded in the bay, the lights of the lighthouse folded back from the sea, and the shouts of the sailors echoed in the whining sea breeze. Not long after, one after another trolleys with tightly bound crates passed by the slaughterhouses where the fishermen had started, and slowly drove towards the door of the stockpiling warehouse.

"It's coming," Da Niu let out a low cry, and the two teenagers took advantage of the stall handed over by the minions of the Black Shark Gang, and got out of the alley with their waists and went around into the gap between the slaughterhouse and the processing workshop. More than a dozen meters away from them, the Black Shark Gang's minions were unloading in an orderly manner, crates and barrels gradually piling up into a mountain, and the unloaded carts were set aside at will, becoming excellent cover.

After the last batch of goods was unloaded, the sailors of the tired half month went into the city to have fun, and the remaining dozen or so thugs began to carry the goods into the warehouse, and no one noticed that the two black shadows silently touched the back of the trolley, only a line away from the crate full of exotic curiosities.

Da Niu forcibly suppressed the tension in his heart, and took out a dagger that had been repeatedly polished and shiny and a scorched grip of a screwdriver, he crawled under the car, turned around and signaled Chi Yu to pay attention to the movements of the thugs, a twine hooked under the hem of his shirt, and the other end was held in Chi Yu's hand, once he found that something was wrong, he would get a hint.

"Come hard, brothers, it's not too early to show your hard work on the belly of the girls. The leader's voice was like a ringing bell, which shook Chi Yu's heart, and the hand holding the thread couldn't help but tremble.

The bull crouched against a row of crates, his eyes locked on a single box next to it, and skilfully cut open the wrapped hides, revealing two rusty shafts. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his mouth parched from nervousness and excitement, and the loot was close at hand. The screwdriver in his hand spun and flew, and the screws were faded in the palm of his hand, and in just a few moments, the two door axes lay quietly at his feet.

The crate was blocked by a man-tall barrel, and he could get his hands on it before the executioners moved here, and by the time they found out, he and Chi Yu had already slipped away.

Da Niu gently lifted the lid, and a touch of golden afterglow jumped into his eyes, and he immediately trembled with excitement, and almost shouted, such a thing, just a few pieces, enough for the orphanage to eat and drink for a few months, and he was in the market before he was adopted, and there was a way to get out.

"Big ...... Da Niu ......" suddenly heard a slight trembling sound behind him, Da Niu's heartbeat stopped for half a beat, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

"I know there are always people who have a disrespect for me, but I didn't think it was a hairy boy like you, but I don't have such art in my collection. ”

Another gloomy and hoarse voice sounded, making the big cow fall into the ice cellar. He turned around with difficulty, a tall shadow crossed his eyes, his sea beast-like eyes narrowed slightly, blood vessels bulged all over the tattooed skin, a dark golden dragon whale skin coat draped casually over his shoulders, and a mast-like arm carrying the trembling Chi Yu.

He knew this man, and he had been cursing the man who deserved to go to hell all the time for the past month.

"Black Shark ......" Da Niu's voice also became hoarse.

The busy thugs noticed the abnormal movement, and after seeing the protagonist in the dark, they stood respectfully in rows one by one, and they didn't dare to take a breath. The black shark grinned and showed a grim smile, and the cobweb-like scar on the left side of its face was huddled together, hideous and terrifying.

He glanced at his silent subordinates, and pretended to mock: "Look, such a miscellaneous fish, under Lao Tzu's nose, in front of you waste, dare to ......."

Before he could finish speaking, a strange brilliance burst out of his eyes, and the little boy who should have been scared and crying for his father rushed towards him, like a cheetah that had been waiting for an opportunity for a long time, and the dagger with a cold light stabbed into his lower abdomen without hesitation.

The black shark took a slight step back, and after so many years of exile, just this level of sneak attack could not pose any threat to him, but he underestimated the ability and determination of his opponent. The big bull missed with a blow, and the flexibility of crawling in the market came in handy, borrowing the strength of his feet, he bowed up, and the dagger turned back and slashed towards the black shark carrying Chi Yu's arm.

The gang boss had to throw away the burden in his hand and looked at the clever boy with interest, while the big bull showed a satisfied smile of triumph, and the moth crashed into the arms of the black shark like a fire, and the dagger in his hand stabbed indiscriminately, shouting: "Run, you unlucky bastard!"

Ji Yu was clever, his buttocks on the ground were still in hot pain, and his survival instinct stimulated his motor nerves, and he fled to the dock with his hands and feet, and disappeared into the darkness in a blink of an eye.

The black shark, which was just a game, blushed his face, and his palm passed through the gap in the knife light, strangling the little boy's neck.

He felt a faint heat on his face.

"Hang this kid for me, and besides, if you can't catch the one who ran away, you can wait for me to make a pen holder!"

The thugs looked at each other, the cold-hearted and mean fellows who had long forgotten what vigilance was, and the black shark's flushed face with anger made them shudder, and they swarmed out, mingled with unbearable swearing.

The escaped teenager ran wildly, the sea breeze pouring down his throat, condensing into a lump of cold fear in his chest. The roar behind him was endless, and the horses' hoof-like footsteps were getting closer and closer.

"I can't escape!" he thought desperately.

Da Niu's crazy actions revealed an indomitable firmness, which made Chi Yu feel very guilty, he was a burden from beginning to end, and now, even exchanging his life for his life is about to come to naught. The stone road has become uneven under years of wind and rain, and Chi Yu's feet slammed into a raised stone slab, and the inertia of rushing forward knocked him to the ground.

In just a few heartbeats, the claws of death approached him.

A one-eyed thug licked off the saliva from the corner of his mouth, cursed a few words fiercely, reached out and grabbed Chi Yu's hair and lifted it up stiffly, and before he could inspect the loot, a red light suddenly crossed the night sky like ink, far more dazzling than the fireworks during the festival.

The red light burst in midair, like a lotus flower outlined in flames, and a black shadow fell down wrapped in the remaining tongues of fire, hitting the roof beside the avenue, and the tiles and broken wood crackled and flew in all directions. The black shadow fell to the ground sharply, rolled and slowed down before rushing like an arrow, the sea breeze was stirred into a rapid, and the black robe hunted sounded.

The one-eyed thug was so frightened that he subconsciously let go, Chi Yu only saw a half-pointed chin exposed under the cloak and a thin line of lips hanging with eye-catching blood lines, and then the neckline tightened, and the scene in the line of sight flew away, and the group of vicious thugs fell to the side in pieces.

The dark shadows rise and fall, and finally stop at the pier.

At the top of the gallows for lifting heavy loads stood a man, holding his hands as if he had been waiting for a long time. The clouds floated to reveal half of the moon, and the cold moonlight reflected his figure, red clothes and red hair, like a raging flame.

"Just a demon spirit, dare to set foot in Tianyuan!" he was condescending, his gaze moved to Chi Yu, and his tone was a little mocking, "This is your bargaining chip? Ridiculous, do you think this is Xuanwu Continent or Canglong Continent?"

"This is Vermilion Bird Continent!The territory of the Yan Clan!" his voice was high-pitched, deafening, "Sacrifice is the consciousness that every citizen should have!"

"Demon spirit", "Yan clan", it was not the first time that Chi Yu had heard these words. When the old dean was still there, the greatest pleasure of the orphanage friends was to surround him after dinner and listen to him tell some strange stories. Star Town is too small, so when the Netherworld Continent and the Tian Yuan Continent are four continents and one city, as well as the Forgotten Lands where there is no racial distinction, these cognitions that have never been in contact with them come from the mouth of the old dean, the friends will always linger.

The Yan Clan, the guardian clan of Vermilion Bird Continent, has the most courageous warriors in the Tian Yuan Continent, they control the power of flames and burn all evils. As early as the war, the vanguard regiment of the parliamentary army, the fiery force could not be resisted. And the demon spirit, is the indigenous people of the Netherworld Continent who have fought against the Tianyuan Council and intended to annex since the history of the continent.

In the land shrouded in thick fog, there is an unknown evil, but this is heard.

Until today, at this moment.

Fate seemed to have played a big joke with Chi Yu, and the hideous face of the Black Shark Gang thug had not yet faded from his mind, and the legendary demon hand descended on his head again.

The body of the black-robed demon spirit trembled, and let out a gasping chuckle: "Saying beautiful words has always been your Tianyuan people's specialty, but it is much more powerful than your fire!"

A high-pitched voice, like an overwhelmed pulley being pulled by a cable. The man on the gallows was so enraged that the four-cornered bracket that was large enough to support the lifting of a thousand pounds of giant sea beasts fell apart under his rage, and the red flames transformed into a dark blue color like a shell, and fluttered uneasily in his palms.

"Flame gives warmth and light to people...... "He repeats the prayer of the tribe's guardian totem, which is considered to be a blessing for this little fellow who has unfortunately fallen into the hands of the demon, and the mission and duty must be to drive away all cold and darkness.

The blue flame demon was strange and magnificent, and the scorching waves of qi rippled out, and the black-robed demon spirit screamed in a lost voice: Lan Yan! Damn! You are an eight-star!"

"If you can't catch a big fish, you don't have to hide, so I'll give you one last chance, let go of that teenager, and let you escape for another moment!"

Chi Yu couldn't care about the sudden rescue, and there was a creepy touch in his back, like a millipede crawling up his spine, and the thing tore through his flesh, burrowed into his body, and finally came to the place of his heart, followed by a moment of intense colic.

Chi Yu's face was pale, almost suffocating in pain, his instinctive shouts turned into intermittent gasps, and his ears roared incessantly, only a clear rhythm beat the nerves, which was the sound of the heart beating.

"Hey, isn't it? It's really infuriating to think you're in control!" After a brief panic, the black-robed demon spirit sneered and raised the young man in his hand high, "It's a pity! It's too late, lo and behold, it's alive!"

Where ordinary people's eyes could not reach, a trace of green light spread from the town and gathered in the young man's heart.

"Motherworm!"

The red-haired man's face changed dramatically, the flames around him churned and churned, and the irrepressible anger made him tremble.

"Bastard!" his teeth seemed to bite out of the spark, "Ten thousand deaths are not enough to wash away your sins!"

The black-robed demon's smile became playful, and then he laughed wildly. In the long history of the struggle for thousands of years, the mother worm is the most unconscionable means in the Netherworld, the child and the mother are involved with each other, there is no child and no mother, and the mother dies and the child dies. There are hundreds of sub-worms, and the female worm is unique, when the territory is first opened, the Shura royal family uses this to calm the party, and the remaining officials will feed the female worm with the blood of their hearts, and the subworm will feed the people. If the official general dies, the whole city will die, and if the official general flees, the mother worm will eat back.

It is extremely difficult for this insect to reproduce, and now it has long been left with the washing of time.

Even if he was forced to come up with the means of pressing the bottom of the box, the black-robed demon spirit still did not take it lightly, if it was facing people from other clans, as long as this young man was still in his hands, he believed that even if he pushed the sharp knife into the opponent's chest inch by inch, those stupid guys would not dare to act rashly, but the person in front of him was the Yan clan.

Under the leadership of the legendary man, the justice of the Tian Yuan Council has been burned to the point of being somewhat distorted.

"Now I'm leaving, do you have any opinions? The black-robed demon spirit tilted its head and asked mockingly.

He was greeted by flames erupting on both sides, the bluestone slabs were scorched black, the Black Shark's cargo ship torn to pieces, and the sound of a terrible howl and the sound of a thud overboard intertwined with unspeakable rage.

The black-robed demon spirit began to retreat, walking towards the bay, to escape from this pursuit, the mainland could no longer stay, only to go to that place.

Ji Yu finally realized that he was about to come to an end, and struggled to shout at the red-haired man: "Please save my friend, he was caught by a black shark, he will die, those villains will only kill, please...... Please...... Those people are bad people...... and by the end it's a whimper.

"Disgusting! Shut up, you little bastard!"

The demon took the hostage and jumped into a small boat, sailing into the depths of the sea.

The explosion in the harbor alarmed the Black Shark minions, and a group of men with harpoons and machetes rushed to kill them, and soon surrounded the outsiders.

"Fuck you, you didn't make the explosion!"

Blazing Abyss was very irritable at the moment. He had already put away the strange fire, but the anger in his chest was still surging. He walked over to the leader and asked in a deep voice, "Where is the black shark?"

"Hey I'm fucking you, mom, you're ......"

As soon as the leading thug raised the knife in his hand, a blue engulfed him entirely, turning him from a living man to a scorched corpse, and he didn't even have time to shout.

"Where's the black shark, I asked!"

The blazing abyss thundered, and he had lost his patience.
