In the north of the empire, there is a mountain range of steep peaks and canyons, and this mountain range spanning nearly half of the empire is shrouded in clouds all year round, and even the shining electric snakes in the clouds cannot break through the gloom. The fog that wafts through the mountains is thick and dark, turning the rocks black over the years.

This mountain range is almost considered a forbidden place in the Empire, not only because of its prohibitive environment, but also because the Shura Hall is located in the middle of this mountain range.

Deep in the mountains, the cliffs are intertwined, and palaces made of rock masonry hang between the cliffs, like the nests of eagles built on the cliffs.

At the top of a towering mountain, there is a huge palace.

The main body of the huge palace is much larger than the mountain peak, but it stands firmly on the top of the peak, and it cannot be shaken by the wind and rain, it is like a proud demon god, looking down on all beings indifferently, and the lightning surrounding it overhead illuminates it from time to time, adding to its majesty and ruthlessness.

The interior of the palace was somewhat gloomy, and the emptiness seemed dead silent, and only in the light of a flash of lightning could one see a chair carved out of rock on top of the palace, on which a man was seated.

It was a weathered but angular young face, heroic but lifeless.

He is the master of this mountain range and this Shura Palace, the Shura King Pang Hao!

Most people in the empire are in awe of the Shura Palace, because they have the Ghost Face Army whose combat power can be compared to the most elite dragon army in the empire, as well as Pang Hao, who ranks second on the list, since the first-ranked Liufeng Ankang retired, Pang Hao's limelight has faintly overshadowed Liufeng Ankang, and he is in his prime, so many people speculate that one day he will replace Liufeng Ankang's first position.

Pang Hao looked at the electric snake flickering outside the palace expressionlessly, as if he was pondering something, and after a moment, he stood up and glanced back at the two staggered swords hanging on the stone seat.

A handful as white as the scorching sun, a handful as bright red as blood!

At this moment, a series of heavy footsteps sounded outside the temple gate, and five figures with unusually tall bodies, holding war knives, and wrapped in heavy black iron armor, walked towards the palace, their faces covered with a hideous demon mask.

They are the Ghost Face Army that has terrified countless legions.

When the five of them arrived outside the temple gate, one of them walked in first, and the other four stood on the left and right sides of the door.

After entering the main hall, the man knelt on one knee, and a deep voice came from the mask: "Liao, knock to see my king." ”

As the black-armored man spoke, the mouth on his mask also closed one by one, as if this mask was his face.

Pang Hao turned around, looked at the person on the ground, and said in a deep voice full of magnetism: "My son has left Qingyang Courtyard, it's time to come back, you can go and welcome him back for me." ”

The black-armored man said in a deep voice: "Yes, Liao, I will definitely send the young master back safely." ”

Pang Hao looked at the clouds and lightning outside the palace, a bloody light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and said: "If you encounter anyone obstructing you on the way, just kill it, don't worry, go ahead." ”

"Commanded. ”

The black-armored man left the hall with heavy steps, and the four people who came with him followed.

In the valley, the branches and dead vines at the mouth of the cave were finally cleared, and the haze of the days was finally washed away, and the light penetrated in. A tall boy rushed out of the hole and couldn't wait to jump into the river of the mountain stream.

After a long time, the boy stuck his head out of the water and said to the other two boys by the river, "Come down too." ”

The two teenagers glanced at the red-stained river, frowned and shook their heads, looking disgusted.

The young man in the river said with a smile: "I have been with that big guy for more than ten days, and I have a strange smell, plus this body is sticky with blood, I am about to get lice, and now I have finally washed away the blood stains on my body, and I am really much more comfortable." ”

The young man in the river was Pang Jing, who was talking loudly at this time, without the slightest awareness of being a hiding.

Xi Lan looked around cautiously and said, "You are so swaggering, aren't you afraid of provoking those people over?"

"Aren't we worried that they won't be able to find this place?" asked Pang Jing puzzled.

"It's right that we want to take the initiative, but if they come in droves, we're probably not opponents, and now we can only find a way to kill them one by one. ”

"I get a headache when you talk about your schemes, I only kill people, and the rest is up to you. ”

Pang Jing turned over and dived into the water again.

Xi Lan was a little helpless and looked at Su Yuan.

Su Yuan sat by the river, as if he hadn't noticed the gaze cast by Xi Lan, he looked at the green forest sea, his expression relaxed and calm. The baby girl in his arms seemed to love the rare sunshine in this winter, and hid in the cave for more than ten days, and finally saw this world full of novelty and beauty for her.

The baby girl was obviously very cheerful, staring at Su Yuan with wide eyes, a vague laugh came out of her mouth, she babbled and stretched out her hand hard, as if she wanted to catch Su Yuan, Su Yuan smiled, stretched out her finger and gently touched her, the baby girl smiled more cheerfully, and firmly grasped Su Yuan's fingers with both hands, as if this was her whole world.

Looking at the innocent and simple happiness of the baby girl, Su Yuan suddenly felt the beauty and simplicity of life, just like the vibrant mountains and forests in front of him, enjoying the gifts of heaven and earth, and giving birth to thousands of lives in the mountains and forests.

But then he felt an inexplicable sadness, because this world is not only the beautiful picture in front of him, what he sees in front of him is only the tip of the iceberg of the world, under the sun and dense forests, everywhere is full of struggle and killing, whether active or passive, all living individuals will be involuntarily involved in it, this jungle rule has never stopped. If the baby girl can escape this time, she will also grow up slowly, and she will also be exposed to the other side of this world that the sun cannot shine on, and at that time, will she still remember this innocence now?

But no matter what happens in the future, Su Yuan has decided not to tell her everything that has happened these days, and only hopes that there will be no resentment left in her heart.

"Shall we give her a name?" Su Yuan said suddenly.

"What?" Xi Lan frowned, not understanding that Su Yuan still had the leisure to think about such inconsequential little things at this dangerous moment.

"Okay, let's call it Yu'er, what do you think?" Pang Jing came out of the water out of nowhere, and hurriedly said to Su Yuan.

Su Yuan saw that he was playing with a fish in his hand, and replied dissatisfiedly: "It's too vulgar." ”

"It's called trees, insects, mud, butterflies, dragonflies, streams, mountains...... It's pretty good, too. Pang Jing chose a series of names for the baby girl, and when his eyes saw something, he shouted out in his mouth.

Su Yuan's face was black, and he wanted to attack, but he sighed again, he knew that Pang Jing was not good at these, but Xi Lan was unwilling, at this time, his face was a little dark, his eyes wandered, and he seemed to have something on his mind, but as soon as he came into contact with Su Yuan's gaze, he immediately dodged it, and then turned his back to the two of them, raised his head and looked into the distance.

Su Yuan felt that he must be hiding something, this feeling he had since he returned to the cave with a serious injury, he felt that Xi Lan seemed to have changed, becoming a little strange, a little incomprehensible.

Su Yuan wanted to ask, but he still gave up, he knew that since Xi Lan intended to hide, he must have his own concerns, so he might not be able to say it if he asked.

Some words may not be a good thing, it is better to hide them in your heart.

The force from his hand interrupted Su Yuan's thoughts, he came back to his senses, thought in his heart for a moment, and said to the baby girl who was shaking his fingers vigorously: "In the future, you will be called Bai Zhen'er." ”

Pang Jing said: "This name is similar to the ones I just mentioned." ”

After speaking, Pang Jing jumped up from the river.

At the moment when Pang Jing landed, the corners of Su Yuan's mouth twitched, and he covered Bai Zhen'er's eyes with his hand.

Xilan just turned his head, took a breath, gritted his teeth, and turned his head back again.

On the contrary, Pang Jing looked strange, looked at himself, and didn't seem to notice anything unusual except that he was naked and naked.

"What are you doing? It's not like I haven't seen it. Pang Jing scratched his head and said indifferently.

Xi Lan gritted her teeth and said, "Put on your clothes and then speak." ”

Pang Jing shook the freshly washed clothes, and the water stains on them suddenly turned into mist and rose away, and he put the clothes back on his body.

"What's wrong with your injuries?" asked Su Yuan

"It's long gone, but it's a pity that the long knife is lost in the wilderness. Pang Jing said with a look of regret.

Su Yuan said: "It's just a blade, just leave here and find another one." ”

Pang Jing sighed, "That's different, that knife was forged from the frost iron stone we found in Qingyang Mountain that day, I thought that I could at least leave a thought in the future." ”

Su Yuan stared at Pang Jing and said a little strangely: "Good and dignified, what do you think about, how do you speak, it is also a little mysterious." ”

Pang Jing smiled and squeezed out a smile, "It's nothing, it's just a matter of using it, I think it's a pity to lose it." ”

Pang Jing avoided Su Yuan, turned his head to Xi Lan and said: "Alas, have you thought about your plan, how can we find those black-clothed killers next, if we wait any longer, they won't find us, maybe they think we have left, and leave here with us, then it won't be fun." ”

"No need to look for it, they're already here. Xi Lan stared at the other end of the valley, leaned down and whispered.

Su Yuan and Pang Jing followed Xi Lan's gaze in surprise, and three black-clothed figures loomed in the valley, flying in the shadows. This time they hid their breath very carefully, and it wasn't until they got close that they felt a faint fluctuation in their breath.

"I was worried that I couldn't find them, but I didn't expect to send them. ”

Pang Jing grinned, and a few rays of light appeared in his eyes.
