Chapter 1: An eye-opener

Chaoxi Valley is located among the Tianjian Peak, the first of the five famous rivers, not only the road is rugged and dangerous, but also the clouds and mist are shrouded for many years, without the guidance of the residents of the valley, it is impossible for outsiders to enter smoothly. And in this area, there lives the famous giant of the world - the old man of Qingxi!

No one knows the real name of the old man Qingxi, and the world only knows that he became famous in a war when he was fifteen years old and became an invincible god of war on the battlefield. Legend has it that he was born intelligent and beautiful. Literate at the age of three, compose poetry at the age of five, know astronomy and geography, poetry, songs, music, rhythm, chess, and art are all excellent, and the art of martial arts and war is unparalleled in the world. Somehow, when he was twenty-eight years old, he came here to found Chaoxi Valley, and since then he has never taken half a step in the hidden valley.

As the saying goes, 'things gather like people in groups', and the valley owner is so good, and the residents of the valley should not be underestimated. The people who can enter the Chaoxi Valley are all talented and have outstanding appearances, and they are really eye-catching when they look at them. However, if you are mediocre in appearance and you have to enter it, then the situation is ...... Hmph, it goes without saying!

Since entering the valley, Zhou Zhen, who has been busy with all kinds of chopping wood and carrying water, sweeping the land and farming, and other rough chores, and a group of secret guards have already suffered a lot, and the suffering is unspeakable. The prince of the world leisurely went into the valley to seek medical treatment in order to save An, and their secret guards naturally followed in inch by inch. Unexpectedly, it is 'as deep as the sea'! Just because their parents didn't give them a good skin, they were detained at the bottom of the valley and became the lowest cheap laborer by the chief manager of the valley on the grounds that they were 'indecent and unsightly'.

So early this morning, after being led to the main hall halfway up the valley by a servant, Zhou Zhen really got a glimpse of the true face of the world-famous Chaoxi Valley. But seeing the garden full of strange flowers and plants, the pavilions and pavilions are ingenious, and countless handsome men and beauties are shuttling among them, it is really like a fairyland, and he is dizzy and dazzled!

Half-asleep and half-awake, he was taken to a elegantly dimly lit study, where the servant bowed respectfully to the high seat and bowed to leave. Only Zhou Zhen, who was still in the illusion, stood in the room in a daze, stupidly unknown.

"You're the guard who came with Hiko?" A deep and magnetic voice shattered the calm of the study, and at the same time recalled Zhou Zheng's still fugue mind.

"Hikohiko?" Thinking hard about this familiar and unfamiliar name, Zhou Zhen frowned and tried to search for the corresponding person from the memory bank.

"You little guy, it's okay to look ugly, I didn't expect to be so stupid!" The questioner floated down from his seat on the steps, his body light and not making a sound. The weird made Zhou Zhen's frightened hair stand upside down, and cold sweat flowed.

"How can he put up with a piece of wood doing things next to him?!" The person who spoke still didn't realize how much shock his erratic behavior would bring to normal people, he appeared beside Zhou Zhen like a ghost, pulled up Zhou Zhen's sleeve and walked to the window, and whispered as he walked, "You walk lightly, don't let him find out!" That kid hates others peeking at him the most, and he really shouldn't be underestimated when he starts a fire! ”

Through the bright sunshine in front of the window, Zhou Zheng saw the appearance of the person who came. Fortunately, he was able to breathe a sigh of relief, believing that he was not running into evil in broad daylight! This is an old man with white hair and beard, I saw him dressed in a silver gauze robe, crane hair and childish face, although he is old, but the outline of his facial features is still handsome and abnormal, how can a fairy wind bone be described?

Ignoring the amazing look in Zhou Zhen's eyes, the old man stretched out his well-maintained slender fingers and pointed out the window, looking at the man who was surrounded by a group of young girls in the center like a moon, walking quickly, and said with jealousy, "Oh! Isn't Hikohiko him! The stinky boy is still so eye-catching, and as soon as he comes back, he attracts piles of girls around him! The temper is obviously weird to death, but he has a face that has fallen into the country and the city, what a sin! ”

Following the direction he pointed out, Zhou Zhen looked at it fixedly, and was so shocked that he almost didn't scream, it turned out that the 'Yan Yan' in the old man's mouth was his own peerless demon master - Li Yan!

Thinking of organically combining the nickname 'Yanyan', which was numb to goosebumps, with Li Yan, who was as cold as frost and unsmiling, Zhou Zhen felt a constant chill. His eyes twitched, and he reconfirmed in disbelief, "Mr. said 'Yanyan' refers to my master?!" ”

"Who else is it not him?" Glancing at Zhou Zheng angrily, the old man reproached with great dissatisfaction, "You really don't know how your brain grows to be so dull!" If you're by my side, I'll be able to slap you to death! ”

He didn't necessarily look so inwardly when he spoke, but it still made Zhou Zhen shudder.

I don't know if he was accustomed to it or too strong, the old man turned a blind eye to his performance. Before Zhou Zhen could react, he attached his hand to his shoulder, lifted him up in the air, and silently jumped to a roof not far away and fell.

Seeing that he was familiar with the road, he quickly removed a tile with his hands and feet and peeked down, and said with words in his mouth, "I knew that this stinky boy fooled me and said what his sister was!" Is there a brother who is so tender and sweet to his sister?! Is it true that I can't see it when I'm so dizzy?! ”

After that, he forcibly pulled Zhou Zhen by himself, held his head and asked him to visit the house, and asked in a low voice, "Do you recognize the girl on the bed?" What is the relationship between her and Hikohiko? You tell me that I will not be able to treat you badly! ”

Through the tiny gap, Zhou Zhen vaguely distinguished that the two people in the room were Li Yan and An Youran. I saw An Youran still unconscious, while Li Yan sat in front of the bed, gently combing her long hair with gentle eyes......

naturally understood the relationship between the two of them in his heart, but in the face of this strange old man of unknown origin, Zhou Zhen still cautiously chose to keep silent. Facing the old man's torch-like gaze, he shook his head resolutely and replied succinctly, "I don't know!" ”

"Don't know?!" angrily gave Zhou Zhen a slap on the head, and the old man shouted angrily and in a low voice, "You little bastard, you want to make an axe in front of your grandfather?" The road is too shallow! Grandpa, when I pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, you weren't born yet?! You show me to be smarter, and those who know each other will be honest! Don't me off and make yourself uncomfortable! ”

Just when the old man's eyes showed a fierce light and he extorted a confession from Zhou Zhen, a cold and refreshing voice sounded behind them, "How uncomfortable are you looking for him?" Can you tell me about it? ”

"Master!" Never thought that one day he would be so excited to hear Li Yan's cold voice, Zhou Zhen was overjoyed and ran to Li Yan who was standing still on the roof, "It's great to see you, where is this old man sacred?" How could it be so weird......"

As the saying goes, 'It's cruel'! When Li Yan said to the old man with an expressionless face, "Master, if you have something to say, just say it, don't make so many troubles!" , Zhou Zhen clearly heard the sound of something collapsing in his heart...... That's the longing for idols when you're young, and that's the admiration for heroes when you're an adult......

And all of this, in less than an hour today, was destroyed in an instant, and all the bones were gone! Trembling and pointing at the old man, Zhou Zhen asked, "You are the master of Chaoxi Valley, the old man of Qingxi?!" ”

"yes!" With a nightmarish innocent smile on the old man's lips, he nodded and replied, "What advice?!" ”
