Chapter 7 Ye Ruxue
The vast majority of people only know that the east and south sides of the continent face the ocean, but they don't know how far the other two directions extend, and those who know a little more can only vaguely say that the west and north sides of the mainland are wrapped in a thick fog.
It is rumored that the people who stepped into that dense fog the most were all affiliated to the six major sect halls, and even the Xuan God Temple was in the dense fog world where they could not see their fingers after entering, and because of this, that mysterious world was called the Misty Continent.
The unreachable corners of the East China Sea and the South China Sea, for ordinary people, can at least stand on the shore and look out, feel the sea breeze and listen to the sound of the waves, while fantasizing in their minds whether there is a country full of gold on the other side, which also prompts countless people to go forward and explore even if they know that it is fruitless.
But the Misty Continent in the west and north is a completely forbidden area, and without the strength of a division-level mystic, you can't even think of coming out alive.
At the junction of the Misty Continent and the Hainei Continent, this path looked like an impermeable black jungle from a distance extending infinitely forward, left, and right along the horizon, and it was like a tall black city wall, directly completely isolating the world inside the Misty Continent from the Hainei Continent.
Whether it is the Dayu Kingdom in the west of the Hainei Continent or the Zilan Country in the northernmost part, or even a dozen or so small countries sandwiched between them, as long as it is a land bordering the Misty Continent, there is absolutely no family in sight within three hundred miles, and the critical point of the Three Hundred Miles is a solid city wall comparable to the dense fog on the periphery of the Misty Continent, which wraps the Hainei Continent tightly.
This copper wall with a length of tens of thousands of miles, a height of nearly 100 meters, and a thickness of about 40 meters, is called the sea wall.
The inner wall is rumored to have been built thousands of years ago, as for who built it, how long it took to build, it has long been impossible to study, and even its role has not been able to figure out yet, perhaps the only person who knows the ins and outs of the inner wall of the sea is the person who is himself in the Xuan God Temple in the Misty Continent.
At the foot of the uninhabited sea wall, a petite figure jumped lightly and climbed up the moss-covered wall like a gecko, its feet were like nails, and the whole person was almost 90 degrees from the wall.
No one could have imagined that this figure was only a teenage girl, and even she was holding two six or seven-year-old children in her hands, but in this case, she only took a few seconds to reach the top of the city wall with a slight ponytail, and the whole process was light and breezy, as if a pair of invisible wings grew on her back.
Three hundred miles, ordinary people have to ride a horse for more than half a day, but it only took less than an hour at the feet of the girl, and even a trace of footprints could not be found in the place where she ran, it was like a phantom of the breeze.
When the girl came to the junction of the dense fog, she suddenly stopped, looked at the boy with her left hand twisted in a slight surprise, and then threw the boy on the ground, and took out a small porcelain bottle from her waist.
Long Chen never imagined that he would actually step into this misty continent that had been talked about at length in that broken booklet, if it weren't for the thick fog that covered the sun like dark clouds from the gap in his slightly open sight, he wouldn't know where he was at the moment.
It's just that before Long Chen could fully sober up and confirm all this, he was pinched open by a cold little hand and forcibly fed a very bitter pill, and then received a heavy slap on the back of the neck, even if he was hit three times under the hands of an insect monarch, it was not a big deal, and his physique was already several times beyond ordinary people, and his eyes turned black and fainted again without resistance.
After doing all this, the black rice spike girl didn't stop any longer, twisting Long Chen and Qiangzi, and the whole person was like a black arrow into the thick fog.
When Long Chen woke up for the second time, he found that he was already in a small wooden house, and in addition to the crying Qiangzi, there was also a person who did not know whether it was a man or a woman.
The man was wearing a very bewitching green brocade robe, with his back to Long Chen and Qiangzi, and his waist-length black hair was only tied with a knot of white silk at the end of his hair, his body was slender, although his shoulders were a little wide, but the ten fingers behind his back were white and slender, and it was really difficult to judge the gender.
After seeing Long Chen wake up, Qiangzi pounced on Long Chen as if he had found a savior, crying and shouting: "Woo, Long Chen, where is this, I want to go back to my father, let's go back, right?" I'm afraid that something will happen to my father, and my grandfather, shall we go back?"
Long Chen frowned slightly, reached out and pressed Qiangzi's shoulder, and said without tactfulness: "Don't cry, your father and grandfather are dead, and no one in the town is still alive, so there is no need to look for them." ”
Qiangzi was stunned all of a sudden, looking at Long Chen stupidly with his mouth open, motionless, he didn't expect Long Chen to say these words to himself, he knew what it meant to be dead, that is, never to see his father and grandfather again, he didn't wonder if Long Chen was lying, because Long Chen would not tell such a lie to deceive him.
Qiangzi gritted his teeth and held his breath and wiped a few handfuls of his sleeves on his face, and his little face became redder and redder, until it was red to some purple, and he inhaled heavily, and tears suddenly appeared from the corners of his eyes, falling down his cheeks.
It's just that this time the strong son didn't cry again, and he didn't cry again for the rest of his life.
Long Chen has never experienced the life and death of his relatives, he was just an orphan in the previous life, even when the old director of the orphanage who was very good to him died, he never felt the pain that he was so hard to remember now, because the old director had his own children, he didn't dare to treat the old director as his own relatives.
But this time, the man who has been busy in the dark basement during the day until late for six years, likes to sit on a wooden chair in the living room with his back straight and teach himself to read and count, even if he is very tired, he is still very patient to solve his doubts, and he often hides everything in his heart with a gentle smile on his face, and he has been so stubborn that he refuses to call his father...... died, never to be seen again.
Long Chen wanted to cry like Qiangzi, or suppress his sadness in his heart, and still fall from tears, but he found that he couldn't cry, and he couldn't even squeeze out a drop of tears, he only felt that his heart was like a needle prick, sprinkled with coptis juice, entangled in pain and bitterness.
The black cavalry galloping on a lion horse, the thorny vines emerging from the ground, Long Linyuan's words at that time, and the rags floating in the air, these pictures kept lingering in Long Chen's mind, and he couldn't wave it, but if he wanted to appear Long Linyuan's face in his mind, it was always vague, and the more he recalled, the more blurred he became......
"If there's anything you want to ask, I can answer you, but it's just one question. ”
The man standing in the room suddenly spoke, but he didn't turn around, still with his back to Long Chen, and he didn't know if he was deliberately pretending to be deep or ugly, but at least he let Long Chen know his gender, his voice was round and a little low, he was a man.
Long Chen didn't ask any surprising and wonderful questions, nor did he ask where this place is and who are you like ordinary children, but just asked the one thing he was most concerned about and wanted to know now.
"Where is my mother?"
At this time, the green-robed man turned around, revealing the true face of Lushan, his appearance is a little discolored in terms of handsomeness, it can be said that Long Chen has seen the best appearance of a man in his previous life and this life, his facial features are as sharp as if carved by a craftsman, there are almost no flaws, maybe there is only such a appearance in the world, so that people will not reject a man with long hair as soft as a woman and wearing such a bewitching robe.
Even, he also has a woman-like name, Ye Ruxue.
