With my sister on my back, I wandered in the uninhabited snowy mountains, avoiding man-eating beasts, escaping from pursuers, enduring cold and hunger, and finally arriving at my target town for three days and a lot of hardships.

My sister leaned against my back and shivered, her face pale, and even though she had worn clay makeup to hide her beautiful face at such a young age, she was still so pitiful. And I am in rags at the moment, with yellow muscles and thin muscles, carrying half my weight on my back for the past few days, even if my body is extremely strong, but I can't resist the hunger in my belly, and I still hold the yearning for the future in my chest, hoping to start a new life here.

Walking on the stone road of the town, the streets and alleys are full of businessmen, and the shops are full of things and things, which makes people dizzy, so that I have never come out of the village is amazed, but the weight of my sister on my back always reminds me not to slack off.

I started looking for work to do, but when the bosses saw my sister behind me, they waved their hands again and again, shook their heads and refused, with a cripple who couldn't work, no matter how strong the labor ability was, they would be dragged down.

In desperation, I decided to beg for food first, but there were too many beggars here, and I didn't know the rules to beg for a day's food, and I just got a steamed bun from a kind aunt. As it got late, and the sun could give less and less warmth, I took my sister to find a small dilapidated temple to live in, the huge cobwebs on the eaves, the cold broken bricks, but even if it was broken, it could still block the cold wind for our brother and sister.

Looking at the steamed bun in my hand, and then at the Sun and Moon Concubine in my arms, I swallowed a mouthful of saliva and stuffed the steamed bun into her mouth.

"Concubine, eat this steamed bun. ”

“......”

"What's the matter, do you think it's hard?"

"I ate this steamed bun, brother, what do you eat?"

"I'm not hungry, my brother is strong. ”

“...... The elder brother doesn't eat it, and the concubines don't eat it either. ”

Seeing my sister's rare stubbornness, I sighed, took a small bite helplessly, and deliberately said in a vague voice: "Look, my brother has eaten, and it is the turn of the concubine." ”

Only then did Concubine Sun and Moon be willing to open her mouth to eat steamed buns, and I tore them to pieces so that she wouldn't realize how much she was eating.

The night is getting colder, the wind comes in through the hole in the temple, making a strange whistling sound, like the cry of a ghost, eerie and terrifying, my sister is a nine-year-old girl who has fallen into the mortal world after all, and she is no longer the sun and moon girl who still talks and laughs in the face of tens of millions of ghost soldiers, I feel the hand holding my chest tightened again.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, there is a brother. ”

“...... Ahem, brother, I'm so cold. ”

It seems that the past few days have reached the limit of my sister's sleeping, and it is too difficult for her to let a girl who has been frail and sick accompany me to trek through mountains and rivers since she was a child.

I took a closer look, and I felt that her breathing was a little rapid, her cheeks were abnormally flushed, her forehead was slightly warm, I was afraid that she was about to have a fever, and I was anxious, but there were no people outside, and I was penniless, where could I go for help?

I made up my mind in my heart, and when I saw her coughing in her sleep, I couldn't hold it down for a moment, and I patted her on the back, and I hummed the song she had sung in hell, childish, gentle, and I sang it in my gentlest voice, which was her favorite bedtime song, and I used to lull her to sleep when she was sick.

Once upon a time, there were white bones and corpses beside the ancient road

On the plate, the sacrificial sheep fairy Mo Dao is busy

The wish on the earth is bright, only the stars are detailed

The god of war halberd is strong in the mortal world

Her breathing gradually calmed down, and suddenly she said a dream: "Heaven...... Is there really a god of war......"

I smiled slightly, tapped her nose, and said, "Regardless of whether there is a god of war in the sky or not, in the world, I am your god of war." ”

Concubine Sun and Moon snorted cutely, and fell into a deep sleep, in this cold, I was also full of sleepiness, almost as soon as I closed my eyes, I fell asleep, holding Concubine Sun and Moon tightly, and there was a belief in my heart that no matter when and where, I would not let others take her away.

I don't know how long I slept, I was awakened by a noise around me, as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a wooden stick hit at my head, I didn't have time to dodge, I was hit hard, but this time it didn't stun me, I wanted to stand up and fight back, but I was slowed down by the Sun and Moon Concubine in my arms.

"Oh, this little cub is quite durable, second child, you give him another time. ”

With the sound of the rough man, another stick fell on my head, and the warm blood flowed down, and I was confused, only at the end I saw that there were other beggars in the temple who seemed to have been knocked unconscious, and were being stuffed into the bag by these big men.

Is it a human trafficker?

When the third stick fell, it was my last consciousness.

When I woke up again, the first thing I felt was a headache, but I didn't move rashly, in the dark, I just lay quietly, kept breathing, endured the severe pain, and used the five senses other than vision to feel the surrounding environment.

The smell of blood, the hard ground, the faint cheers outside, and the cold touch on my feet, knowing that I had been imprisoned and that there was no one around to watch, opened my eyes and showed a scrutinizing gaze, this was a small separate cell, and on my feet, there were iron locks tied to iron balls.

"Brother, are you there?"

My body shook and I looked behind me, my sister was lying on the ground, blindly waving in the air, I quickly held her in my arms and checked if she was hurt.

"It's okay brother, they didn't beat me, they just stuffed you and me together, and then sold it, it's called the Colosseum, what is it, brother, do you know?"

The Colosseum, a place of entertainment for commoners and nobles, is also a bloody Shura field, which I saw yesterday when I was looking for a job in the town, but I avoided it from a distance, because it was a very dangerous place. Facing Concubine Sun and Moon's puzzled expression, I was silent, not knowing how to answer this question to reassure my sister.

I wanted to cry about how I could protect my sister.

"Brother?"

“...... It's a place to raise little rabbits, concubines don't have to worry, we only need to catch a hundred little rabbits to get out. ”

"Catch the little rabbit, can the concubine help?"

"Concubine, just stay behind your brother, after catching the little rabbit, my brother will give it to the concubine to eat. ”

"Concubines don't eat rabbits, I heard that rabbits are very cute!"

Concubine Sun and Moon wrinkled her nose dissatisfied, as if she was dissatisfied with me wanting to eat cute little animals. I smiled, and my smile was full of bitterness. At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, and my smile suddenly froze.

"Yo, it's pretty laid-back, but also, little ones, enjoy the last hour of your life. ”

A lazy and teasing voice, through the small opening of the door that was opened, I saw three steamed buns being thrown in, and the small mouth was closed with a "bang".

The three white steamed buns on the ground rolled for a while and then stopped, thinking that this was our last meal, the most humble mercy of the Colosseum. I looked down at the three white steamed buns, struggled to think for a while, looked back at my sister's thin face, and said to her ashamedly: "Sister, my brother is going to eat, and I will have you next time." ”

The younger sister nodded obediently: "It's okay brother, the concubine is not hungry, you will be happy to eat more concubines." "After all, my brother usually gives her good things to eat, and this time I should give them to my brother.

After I ate three steamed buns, I closed my eyes and recuperated on the side, I didn't talk to Concubine Sun and Yue, she didn't cry or make trouble, she lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking.

Soon an hour passed, the cell door was opened, and three big men entered, and I swept them with cold eyes, and pointed to the door with my chin on their playful expressions. I consciously picked up the Sun Moon Concubine and left the cell, and as soon as I went out, I saw a very small wooden cell, and even a child like me could only squeeze into it, and when I was about to go in, the three big men spoke.

"Wait, you go in, the one you hold can't go in, she's going to give it to the tiger outside. ”

"But she couldn't walk. ”

"Then put it on your 'wooden box'. ”

I felt that Concubine Sun and Moon's little body trembled obviously, I looked at the stick in the hand of the big man, gritted my teeth fiercely, ignored the cry of Concubine Sun and Moon, put her up, and the big men around laughed: "The kid is quite sensible, but it's a pity that his life is not good." ”

Crying and laughter were mixed together, and there was a kind of humiliation in my heart, and I pressed them down, they had weapons, they had chains, and I don't know how many people there were, and now I can't get out alive if I turn against them. It's just this hatred that makes me almost grit my teeth.

The iron ball on my feet was untied, and I entered the "wooden box", and the sun and moon concubines were stacked on top of the "wooden box", and we hooked our fingers together through the gap, and were carried through the gloomy dungeon to the ground full of sunlight, but I did not feel the slightest temperature of the sunshine.

"Ladies and gentlemen, as is customary, before the time of the warrior fights the beast, we need a little spice, that is, to decorate the stage of the warrior with blood! Now that our 'little snack' has come, it's time to let the roar of the beast resound throughout the Colosseum and bring happy colors to the carnival!"

"them!"

"Haha, as is customary, blood can stimulate fierce beasts, and it will be interesting to add a little more difficulty to the fighters who will be waiting for you. ”

"Hurry up and get the next one, boring!"

I and Concubine Sun and Moon were placed in the center of the Colosseum, the sound of cage doors opening in all directions and the roar of wild beasts were intertwined, accompanied by the frantic shouts of the audience on stage, I felt that the world was full of malice towards us, and it fell in the darkest corner, no one saved, no one cared about the sorrow of life.

"Concubine, are you afraid?"

Concubine Sun and Moon finally knew what was going on, and the two rows of teeth chattered up and down, even so, she still forced a smile: "There is a brother...... And I'm ...... Together, I'm ...... nothing Don't be afraid!"

I looked at her mournfully, and then at the beasts that had already surrounded me, if according to the people of the Colosseum, when these beasts ate the concubines of the sun and the moon, I would be the next, and the wooden cage could not stop the minions of these hungry beasts.

But...... If you can't stop the beast, you can't stop me either!

My fingers pressed against the gap, and I pulled it with all my might, and the 'wooden box' was torn open like paper. Embracing my sister back into my arms, I slowly retreated to the wall in the face of many beasts.

The stage expressed great dissatisfaction with my breaking of the 'wooden box', and scolded the 'wooden box' for its poor quality, no one believed that a child could tear hardwood by hand, and naturally, no one would guess what happened next.

I put my sister against the wall, so that there would be no enemies behind me. When I faced the beasts again, the hatred turned into a rage, and madness rose in the heart of the desperate place, and the rage made my face twist and my mouth burst out.

"Who allowed you brutes to stick out their fangs at me!"

The six beasts roared, and three of them were frightened back by my roar, and the next moment, a sense of shame still appeared, and they were actually frightened by the monkey in front of them?

A lion could not bear the humiliation, and first roared at me, the king of all beasts could not tolerate provocation at all, and I was not to be outdone, my hands fell to the ground, and I walked like a beast, which was also a roar. Two huge roars sounded in the Colosseum, and the scene was so shocking that the audience on the stage was quiet, and listened carefully, my roar was faintly louder than a lion.

"It's strong enough! Where did the cage chief find the 'little snack', it's so powerful, today's ticket price is worth it!"

I was in no mood to pay attention to the spectators, my battle had already begun, and when the lion pounced, I didn't retreat, and I knocked it back with one knee through both claws, and before I landed, two beasts opened their bloody maws and bit me, I reached out and grabbed their lower teeth and flew them up, and when I let go, my hands were already bloody and blurred, and I didn't have time to care about this, and I smashed a wolf with one punch.

The beasts fell to the ground and rolled and rushed up without fear, the scarlet and madness in their eyes were not much worse than mine, no way, they were so hungry.

As time went on, the audience on stage became more and more incredulous and dumbfounded, the little boy ...... How could he hold out for so long after the siege of the six beasts, and he was still protecting a little girl? You know, the next six fighters may not be able to do it to his level.

"Really fake? Four of the six have been killed, this is innate divine power? Playing with such a big lion in turn, that's more than 300 catties of meat, tsk, now that the children are so fierce, could it be the son of a military master who sells it?"

"This is a good seedling for martial arts, it's a pity to put it in the Colosseum! If you go to the battlefield, won't the people of the Shenzhen Dynasty be scared to death? Mad dog, definitely mad dog!"

"Boss, how much is this slave? I bought it! I bought it all the money, damn, with such a fierce boy, give him a rope, and go out to save face!"

"Hey, you see he's dying, it's bleeding all over the floor. ”

I panted heavily, I couldn't tell whether it was the blood of the beast or mine on my face, my body was almost out of battle, my hands were numb, my legs were shaking, but there were still two beasts around me, a leopard and a wolf, eyeing me and waiting for an opportunity.

The wolf was hit on the head a few times by me but still alive, the leopard was too agile to catch it, if I continued to stalemate like this, I might have to bleed too much and die, and the next chance to attack was ...... Be sure to catch it!

The wolf is cunning, delayed, the leopard can't bear the hunger, rushed over, I stumbled under my feet, and dodged its pounce, but the sister behind me was exposed to the leopard's sight, at this time, as long as it pounced and bitten, the sun and moon concubine would die on the spot!

The Sun Moon Concubine behind her seemed to feel something, and seemed to smell the fishy smell of the leopard scattered in the air, and asked suspiciously: "Brother?"

Hearing this sound, I realized that although I had just dodged the leopard's attack, I had let go of a god of death and ran towards the concubine, my godless eyes suddenly widened, and I grabbed the leopard's tail with lightning speed, and with the last of my strength pulled the leopard back and fell heavily to the ground, it screamed in pain.

"Who allowed you to hurt the concubine!"

I threw my fists like crazy, and by the time I stopped, the leopard's face had turned into a meat sauce and I looked up at the last beast, the wolf. I felt the wound in my abdomen bleed too much, and my body temperature gradually decreased, and this was the last one, the last battle of your life.

But because of the crazy smashing of the leopard just now, I don't have any strength, I don't have the strength to throw a punch, my arms hang down softly, as long as the wolf pounces, my concubine and I will definitely die, but there is no fluctuation in my eyes, as if I am still strong, and I look coldly at the only surviving beast.

The wolf watched in silence the whole process of my madness, and when he saw me looking at it, he took a step back, bowed his head in submission, picked up a piece of the meat of the other beasts, and returned to his cage.

At this point, I won this "battle of trapped beasts", and I almost fell to my knees and passed out.

The audience burst into applause and cheers, countless money was thrown down, eager eyes shot at me, those who were originally stingy, at this moment they all took out their pockets, praising my victory, and even gold ingots, there was a golden rain in the Colosseum, but I was not interested in those things at all, I didn't bother to take a look, I just wanted to go back to the side of the Sun and Moon Concubine and hold her tight.

With great difficulty in holding my sister into my arms, full of familiar temperatures, my heart was extremely sad, life was too bitter, there was little hope, I could not find the light, in this dark corner of the Colosseum, I was lost.

"Brother is good, don't be afraid, the concubine will protect you. ”

The immature children's words, just like I once comforted her, she also tried to learn to comfort me, looking at her closed eyes, obviously unable to see the light, but always able to see through my heart. This tenderness made me unable to hold back any longer, burst into tears, and bit my lip again, afraid that she would hear my weakness.

I'm afraid I won't be able to see you like this, so where should I find you in my next life?

At this moment, in the most noble silk yarn square room on the Colosseum stage, a man in civilian clothes stroked his palms and laughed after watching this "battle of trapped beasts", the muscles on his body were coiled like dragons, but his upright eyebrows were elegant, and around him, there were people dressed in extraordinary military uniforms, and his identity seemed extraordinary.

"Lu Ji, what do you think?"

Hearing the inquiry, a beautiful woman next to the man, dressed in white, respectfully stepped forward and replied: "Lord Hui, this child is born with divine power, and it must be the heavens who want to strengthen my Shiyan Dynasty, so there is this omen, so let it appear in front of our eyes." ”

"How many times have I said it, don't move down the court again, there are all martial artists here, they don't understand what you say. ”

The man teased him, and immediately made the hall laugh, and the atmosphere was extremely relaxed, but Lu Ji blushed and coughed, even if he was ridiculed, he still had to continue to fulfill his obligations as a strategist: "Yu Gong has taken a fancy to this child?"

"Well, this son is extremely talented, strange and unparalleled, if he can be allowed to enter our army, with more training, it will not take a few years, he will definitely become a general in our army, if he has more talent, his brain can hold things, and he may not take over the position of my generalissimo in the future. ”

Lu Ji was shocked, this remark needs to be cautious and cautious, if it is leaked, I am afraid that something important will happen, and I hurriedly said: "You have such high expectations for him? But he has never been in contact with you, I don't know what his temperament is, how can he afford such a high value from you?"

"He can risk his life to protect his relatives, he can naturally risk his life to protect his country, the people I have seen, there are very few people who are not greedy for life, and there is no willing to give their lives for their relatives, they are not really strong, because there is no strong heart against survival, the so-called evil is invincible, the strength of justice lies in the pursuit of true love and not afraid of life and death, this is the power of protection, but also the power we need. ”

"But it's too dangerous, don't you see the look of the child looking at anyone but the girl? ”

She was really a little frightened by the scene just now, that child was really like a madman, his whole body was full of fangs, the lion who first provoked him was bitten to death by him, he also grabbed a claw on his chest, and pulled out the anus of a mountain boar, the death was extremely miserable, the whole scene was more bloody and terrifying than the battlefield of the dead, otherwise how could so many people give him a reward?

Yu Qianpan didn't answer, just tapped his fingers on the handle of the seat, and after a long time, he got up and went out of the tent, and the generals behind him followed without saying a word, and pieces of red cloaks fluttered, so not mighty.

He had a hunch that this child was worth his attention.

I snuggled up in the corner with Concubine Sun and Moon, feeling the gradual loss of life, picked up the fangs of an unknown beast from the side, and aimed at the place where the blood pulsed on Concubine Sun and Moon's neck, and his trembling hands hesitated.

No one but me would be kind to a blind and lame person, and so good-looking, with no one to protect her, then she would have to stay in this world and suffer. If you want to leave her alone to suffer in the world, it is better for me to finish her off with my own hands now!

A dozen dull noises fell, and the men were huge, blocking out large areas of sunlight, and walked towards me. Why, do you still want to fight? Those people looked very strong, and they were still armed, and now they were on the verge of death, and where did they have the strength to resist, and I struggled to protect her behind me.

"What's your name?"

I stared at the leader closely, and only a cold gaze was silent.

The people around him got angry and scolded: "You stinky slave, you dare to ......"

Yu Qianpan raised his hand to stop the next words of the people around him, took out a bottle, and showed a hearty smile at me: "You answer my question, I will give you this excellent hemostatic ointment, how about it?"

As long as I can stop the bleeding, maybe I still have a chance of surviving, so I can continue to protect my sister. Seeing that the man was holding the bottle in the palm of his hand defenselessly, I suddenly reached out and took it away, and the man did not stop it, not even half angry.

Yu Qianpan didn't care about my rude actions, so he watched me tear open my clothes, skillfully bandage my wounds, and suddenly said: "What did you do before." ”

I reluctantly replied, "Hunter." ”

"It's amazing, you can go hunting in the mountains at this age, and everyone else is still working at home. ”

“......”

"What's your name?"

"Jun Ying. ”

"And what's the name of this little brother?"

"She's my sister! ”

"I'm sorry, but I'm not sure you have different last names?"

"Same father and mother!"

"Is something going on?"

"What do you have to do with it!"

Everyone is supporting their foreheads on the side, this is a completely failed conversation, these two people can't talk together at all, the marshal marches and fights one of the best in the world, but for coaxing children, he is mentally retarded.

Yu Qianpan was a little helpless for me, so he had no choice but to skip the routine and directly say the purpose of this trip: "Junying, are you willing to join the army?"

"Don't want to?"

Yu Qianpan asked strangely, "Why don't you want to?"

I lazily replied, "What is it to join the army?" ”

"Don't you think it's a good thing to defend the people of Dawn?"

"The people of the dawn?"

I sneered, pointed to the sun blocked by the Colosseum's high walls, and said, "Dawn?"

He pointed at the crazy gamblers who wanted me to die just now, and said, "People?"

Yu Qianpan didn't speak, and his face became gloomy, this area is not under his control, although he has amazing power, but it is only on the battlefield.

"And what are you going to do?"

"Kill the real rulers of the Colosseum, free all the slaves, and then destroy the place. "I was grim-faced and gritted my teeth.

"So you're willing to untie your heart and join the army?"

"Yes!"

With mockery in my eyes, I looked at the man on the battlefield on an equal footing, and I didn't believe that he would do such a thing that would do no good to the superior for the sake of a small role like mine.

"Deal. ”

The man laughed, and shone as brightly as the sun. Because of the astonishment on my face, he seemed to enjoy my surprise to him, and he was a little petty.

Looking at the people behind him who had begun to move, the heads of the Colosseum managers flew one by one, and the people on the high platform panicked and screamed, and there was chaos around them, but my eyes were dark, and I couldn't see, which was a sign of excessive blood loss. I didn't expect this unexpected ending, thinking that I could escape from such a terrible place as the Colosseum, and the safety of the concubine could be guaranteed, I was a little relieved, and I didn't turn my face and pretended to be impatient and said, "Whatever you want." ”

kissed the forehead of the concubine of the sun and the moon, hugged her tightly and leaned against the wall, and the tired nerves finally couldn't hold on.

I didn't sleep, I fainted.
