Chapter 1: Human Massacre
Singing to the heavens, calling the earth and the earth to have spirits.
Once the sword mountain drove the tiger, and the fire sea fought the flying dragon several times.
――――――――――――――
There is a kind of people in the world who are always hovering between life and death, and specialize in things that are outside the law.
Murder and arson, forcible robbery of food and property, in the eyes of some people, they are the devil who does all kinds of evil.
This kind of people, the world calls them slaughtered!
In ancient China, during the Warring States Period, there was a famous general named Bai Qi, who was called "Human Slaughter" because of his countless exploits in killing the enemy.
However, the "human slaughter" mentioned here has nothing to do with history, and human slaughter refers to a type of person, not a person.
This is not ancient China, but the era of Qixia in the world of gods and demons.
――――――――――――――
It is a towering mountain, and the scenery is verdant and lush with vegetation all year round below the mountainside. But above the halfway up the mountain, there is no grass, and it is shrouded by cold air currents all the year round, turning into half an "iceberg".
This mountain is the most famous immortal mountain in the Dragon Kingdom, called Cloud Mountain.
There is a small village at the foot of the mountain called Baili Village.
The climate within a radius of thousands of miles in Yunwu Mountain is like spring all year round, and most of the people who live here are handsome, smart, and alive.
And this Baili Village is located at the foot of Yunwu Mountain, which is nourished by the aura of "Immortal Mountain" all year round, and few people in the village are sick, both young and old are a strong body.
Because most of the people in the village are surnamed Baili, it is called Baili Village.
The village is lined with thatched huts, and it is early in the morning, and smoke rises from the roofs of every house.
In the small courtyard of the bamboo fence, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy was dancing with a stick and making a fuss with his hands and feet.
A woman's scolding voice came from the thatched hut: "Stinky boy, let your father and mother go up the mountain to chop wood, you are not young, you are seventeen years old, you should understand something." You pick up the stick that hunts wild boars in the yard every day, do you really think that in this way, you can refine peerless martial arts and become a hero? ”
As he spoke, a young woman in a goose-yellow cloth skirt walked out of the hut, with a goose egg face and a pair of clear and charming eyes.
Seeing the woman coming out of the house, the young man threw the stick in his hand on the ground, showing a smile, and said with a smile: "Parents are old, and proper exercise is also beneficial and harmless." Today, I've exhausted a lot of stick skills, sister, don't be angry. ”
The woman snorted softly, turned around and flicked her skirt back into the hut, and the boy stood outside scratching his head.
The boy's name is Baili Qinglan, and he is an ordinary person living in Baili Village. But he has a heroic dream, he doesn't want to live at the foot of the mountain for the rest of his life like the old man in the village, relying on the mountain to eat. He wants to climb over this mountain to the outside world and become a famous hero.
The woman just now is Baili Qinglan's sister, called Baili Qingyue, three years older than her younger brother, and now she is twenty years old, because her younger brother daydreams of becoming a hero every day, and her parents are old again, and everything outside the family falls on her shoulders alone.
In the early morning, the village is as quiet as usual, with the occasional sound of barking dogs and chickens, adding some harmony to the village.
There is a centenarian in the village called Baili Dengyun. It is said that this old man did not have the surname Baili, but changed his surname to Baili after coming to Baili Village when he was young.
Baili Dengyun was dressed in a white robe, his long white hair fluttered gently with the breeze, his long white beard under his cheeks, and his kind eyes looked like a living old immortal.
He stood at the head of the village at this time, staring at the mountain, frowning slightly, as if he had discovered something.
"Grandpa Dengyun is early!"
Baili Qinglan was forced by his sister to go to the mountain to help his parents chop wood, he was walking towards the mountain with an axe on his back at the moment, and when he saw Baili Dengyun standing at the head of the village, he said hello.
Baili Dengyun beckoned to Baili Qinglan and called him to his side.
"Grandpa Dengyun, is there anything wrong with you?" Baili Qinglan walked up to the old man and wondered.
Baili Dengyun stared at the cloudless sky and said in a deep voice: "The seven stars are displaced, and I am afraid that there will be changes." Seeing that you are going to the mountains to cut wood, listen to grandpa, you should go back quickly, and if you see other people on the mountain, tell them to return to the village quickly. ”
The people in the village obey Baili Dengyun's words, because every word Baili Dengyun says will come true.
Hearing what Baili Dengyun said, Baili Qinglan exclaimed, did not dare to delay, and ran directly towards the mountain, with wind under his feet, and disappeared as soon as he slipped through the smoke.
Soon after, Baili Qinglan returned from the mountain with her parents and the rest of the village, and saw Baili Dengyun still standing in front of the village, staring at the position on the mountain.
Seeing these people who rushed back from the mountains, Baili Dengyun sighed lightly: "The world is going to be chaotic, so wait until you go back and tell the people in the village, pack your luggage and prepare to run away." Tonight, there will be a drastic change in Yunwu Mountain! ”
When the people in the village heard Baili Dengyun's words, they were so frightened that they ran back to the village to escape. But Baili Dengyun left Baili Qinglan's family of three behind.
Baili Dengyun looked at Baili Qinglan's parents and said, "Let Qinglan and I stay here tonight, you and the people in the village will flee to the east, and there will be an opportunity for the villagers." You don't have to worry about Qinglan's safety, this kid Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he is a rare material that can be made. ”
Baili Qinglan's parents agreed to Baili Dengyun's request, and the family of three immediately returned to the village.
――――――――――――――――
The remnant sun was slanting to the west, and the golden afterglow was sprinkled over the land, and the colors of dusk shrouded the village.
At this time, all the people in the village had already left, and Baili Qinglan came to the head of the village alone and walked to Baili Dengyun's side.
Baili Dengyun looked at the towering mountain peak and said, "There is their battlefield. Qinglan, you must always remember that you are a Baili person. The old man's eyebrows drooped slightly, his expression was slightly tired, and he slowly bent down his trembling body and sat on the big rock at the head of the village.
Baili Qinglan sat beside the old man with a curious expression, looking at the towering peak, with a look of yearning.
At the peak, the mist is shrouded.
A group of warriors in silver armor and spears were struggling to climb up the mountain, and halfway through the road, the sky was getting dark.
The general of the army led the soldiers to a forest and rested for a while.
Although the soldiers were tired, they could not hide the excitement in their hearts. As long as you climb this mountain again, you will return to your long-lost homeland. Because they were the first expeditionary force to return from enemy countries, this time the campaign lasted for several years and finally ended in victory.
The young general was also smiling, no longer looking as solemn as before, because he no longer had to miss his hometown and relatives every night. The same is true of the mood of the fighters.
Just when they were looking forward to glory and being admired by all people, a group of men in black suddenly galloped from behind on horseback.
The warriors had been unaware before, but they were also extremely cautious at this time, ready to defend.
The young general stood in front of the warriors and shouted angrily in front of them:
"Brothers, since the beginning of the war, we have been holding guns, rushing to the battlefield, fighting in all directions, standing between heaven and earth with a righteous spirit, and looking at the hot and cold world with a proud smile, just to swear to defend our homeland! To this day, I have been exalted by all the soldiers and entrusted with the post of general, I have received this great favor, I am sincerely afraid, I can not repay the effect, and I am proud of you! I was speechless, just asked: Who wants to go with me, and kill him again without leaving a piece of armor! ”
The soldiers were full of passion, swept away their exhaustion, and shouted loudly: "Zheng Zheng iron bones, indomitable, cut off the strong enemy, and return my rivers and mountains!" ”
"Okay, kill me!"
The warriors fought down the hill to meet the powerful attack of the men in black.
These men in black are extremely strange, they are not ordinary war horses, but strange horses with purple manes and black eyes.
And these people are bare-handed, and it looks like they are deliberately sent to death.
The young general fought for several years, but he had never seen such a strange enemy. His face became solemn, and he ordered his warriors to be vigilant and beware of the enemy's ambush.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he gave this order, the opponent suddenly disappeared strangely, leaving only a dark fog, and it was only at this time that the soldiers realized how terrible the enemy was this time!
Black mist fills the field of vision. The warriors were caught in it, as if they had entered the night, and they could not see their fingers. However, one after another screams followed.
"Everyone, speed up and run, don't stop!"
The general roared, and the wind was under his feet, and he walked like fire. He felt the strength of his whole body evaporate rapidly like sweat, and his feet became weaker and weaker, and finally he fell to the ground, trapped in this strange black mist.
He struggled to turn around, staring in the direction in front of him, even though it was as dark as night.
Just a distance away from this mountain, you can return to the hometown you miss day and night, how can you suddenly suffer this catastrophe!
Helpless, resentful, unwilling.
For the first time, the young general shed tears.
Suddenly, he felt his body be pushed hard, and in the blink of an eye, he saw the light again.
He thought the black fog was gone, but when he turned around, he saw that there was still a black fog.
In the black mist, the voice of the warrior became weaker and weaker: "Head, we have been born and died together all these years. You said that in troubled times, a good man should kill the enemy! The brothers have killed enough Ben over the years, and it's time to rest. But we are unwilling, you are our head and the leader of everyone. Everyone wants you to live and live for everyone. As long as you live, we have no regrets. ”
"Don't give up, what nonsense are you talking about. Have you all forgotten that you still have relatives at home who you miss day and night? All cheer me up and get up. Who pushed me out just now, you have the strength, why don't you come out yourself! The general ran back into the black mist, looking for traces of the warriors.
As soon as he returned to the black mist, he was pushed out by several pairs of hands.
"Don't come in again, we don't have the strength anymore......"
The general was no longer stubborn, standing outside the black mist, his body gradually regained his strength, he looked up to the sky and roared, took off the armor on his body, knelt on the ground suddenly, and said in a trembling voice: "I have failed my brothers, and this revenge will not be avenged!" ”
The general clenched his fists, listened to the weak screams of the soldiers in the black fog, and couldn't bear to leave.
When the screams gradually died down, the general slowly stood up, his eyes were like fire, his eyes were hazy, and he secretly swore that he would leave here.
The young general walked down the mountain peak to the front of the village, and saw Baili Dengyun and Baili Qinglan, an old man and a young man, staring at the scenery in the village, full of vicissitudes, and sighed lightly: "Baili Village, what a familiar scene, but it's a pity that things are not human." ”
Baili Dengyun looked at the young general, showed a mysterious smile, and said, "Your Excellency is the Baili Feilong General, right?" ”
"Are you...... Dengyun seniors? This general called Baili Feilong looked at Baili Dengyun and showed a shocked look.
The old man nodded and said, "It's the old man, you were only ten years old when you left the village with your family twenty years ago, and you have been a famous general for twenty years, what a time!" ”
Baili Feilong took the old man's arm, looked at Baili Qinglan who was sitting on the side, and asked, "Who is this kid, and why is the village so deserted?" ”
"This child's name is Baili Qinglan, and he is only seventeen years old this year. Now there was no one else in the village except me and the child, and I knew that Rentu had entered Yunwu Mountain, so I asked everyone to leave the village. ”
Listening to what Baili Dengyun said, Baili Feilong exclaimed: "Could it be that the group of black-clothed people who just killed my soldiers are the legendary human slaughter!?" ”
Baili Dengyun nodded and said, "Yes, those people are human slaughter." It was eighty years ago since the last time I was slaughtered, and it was at that time that I came to Baili Village. After eighty years, Rentu reappeared, and it was time for the old man to leave Baili Village. ”
Speaking of this, Baili Dengyun's tone changed, and he said in a deep voice: "The slaughter of people in the world will inevitably cause a bloody storm. General Wyvern, I have entrusted this kid beside me to you, and I hope you can take him to the imperial capital to find a man named Yan Shuang. Flying strange people, let Yan Shuang. Fei accepted Qinglan as a disciple and became his only successor. ”
After saying these words, Baili Dengyun suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, turning into a ray of white light and shooting into the sky.
Baili Feilong showed a shocked look, and Baili Qinglan also stood up, pointed to the place where the white light disappeared, and exclaimed, "Grandpa Dengyun is really an immortal!" ”
