Chapter 2: Facing the Battle
The thunderstorm roared more and more, and only the faint candlelight in the dimly lit room was blown by the strong wind, like lightning in the rainstorm.
In this room, a man dressed in an imperial robe can be seen. The man was obviously not lightly injured, but the tattered royal robe on his body still did not change his majesty. And his piercing gaze was looking towards one place.
It was a child who was not yet a month old, and he was particularly vulnerable in the storm. In order to take special care of this child, the rain touched his cheek several times, but he did not cry, but crawled straight ahead.
Because there are all kinds of objects placed there, and these are the utensils used in the full moon ceremony. But his father, the man in the royal robe, couldn't wait for that time.
I saw that he looked at the child who was less than a month old with eyes that almost wiped out the child, and said slowly: "Child, the father is incompetent, this body cannot let you enjoy all the glory and wealth, and the future road has to be up to you to walk by yourself." What is placed in front of you is your future path, and if you choose a plaything, your father will send you to see your mother under the nine springs. If you choose a weapon, you will be able to survive even if you are a father today!"
The child seemed to understand the man's words, or he didn't hear at all. He stood up with a smile and ran towards the object in front of him with his staggering steps. Soon, he was already approaching the plaything made of ceramic in front of him. I saw that his hand was slowly falling, and the sharp blade in the man's hand was getting tighter and tighter, and he kept getting closer to the child.
Just as the child's hand was about to touch the plaything, the man's blade fell. But soon, just as the sword was about to slash the child's fragile neck, he withdrew his hand. This move is not because he is soft-hearted, in fact, who will be the benevolence of a woman who is added to the imperial robe?
But he did give up, for the child's hand was not touching the plaything, but his robe. Yes, as if the boy knew what it was, he dragged it hard with his feeble little hands, as if to put it on his body.
Seeing this, the man put the sword in his hand aside, picked up the child, walked out of the dilapidated palace, greeted the blow of the rainstorm and laughed: "God bless my son!
But soon his laughter came to an abrupt end, and the whole palace was eerily quiet. It wasn't until he opened his mouth here that the dead silence was broken: "I didn't expect that the eight of you are here, and the eight pillars of my Heavenly Clan actually want to harm me. ”
Eight figures flashed in the night, and then suddenly knelt on the ground in a half-squatting position: "Your Majesty, the ministers have no such intentions, but that child is the reincarnation of Emperor Wu, if he is allowed to grow up, I am afraid that it will harm the common people! I must die today! I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"
"Shut up! I don't care who he is, I only know that he is my child! If I can't even keep him, what kind of emperor will I be!"
"The ministers wanted to advise Your Majesty, but Your Majesty was obsessed. In this case, for the sake of the common people in the world, the ministers have no choice but to do it!"
......
In the territory of Dongsheng Shenzhou Tongtian Imperial Kingdom, outside the isolated Sihe Village, there was suddenly an outsider man.
The man had a delicate face, luxuriously dressed, and was wearing an imperial crown on his head, holding a sleeping baby in his hand, exuding the air of an emperor from the inside out. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a person in power.
But the only thing that surprised him was that his face was very pale, and there were many wounds on his body that were bleeding at this time, and most of the clothes on his body were also stained red by blood.
When the man saw a huge orc coming out of the village, he spoke directly.
"General Juli, I know that I led the Celestial Clan to annihilate the Brave World Beast Kingdom, leaving you homeless and guilty. But I implore you to raise my children so that they do not fall into the hands of the Celestials. ”
The orc named Juli saw that the person who came was a person with whom he had a deep enmity, and his face became gloomy, but considering that the other party was a dying person, he patiently replied.
"Since His Majesty the Divine Emperor is your prince, why didn't he hand it over to the Minister of the Divine Clan to raise, but handed it over to us, isn't Your Majesty afraid that we will spread our hatred for Your Majesty on the hands of your prince?"
"For the sake of this child, I have betrayed the Eastern Celestial Clan, how can there be any reason to hand him over to the Celestial Clan, all I can ask for in the world is the general, please the general must raise him to grow up, don't let him fall into the hands of the Celestial Clan, because he is..."
Before he could finish speaking, the man fell to the ground and died, and the baby in his hand was held in Juli's arms before he could fall to the ground.
"Alas, what a wretched child, who was helpless before he had teeth. For the sake of your father sparing us prisoners of war back then, you will be a member of our Sihe Village from now on. ”
It's been nine years.
"Great! I'm finally able to burn the blood, Grandpa Juli, look, can I become a first-class doctor?"
In the courtyard of the house in Sihe Village, a Terran boy of about nine years old was holding a packet of powder and handing it to the orcs of the Troll Clan.
The orc took the powder, took it in front of his eyes, looked at it carefully, and then smiled and said:
"This is not only a blood dispersion, but also a high-grade blood dispersion. It's my grandson, it's amazing! Your grandfather was still playing with mud when I was so old!"
After speaking, he gently touched the young man's head with a hand thicker than the young man's head, and the young man was recognized and smiled.
"But do you want to be an alchemist and make better pills to save more people? ”
"Then what is an alchemist grandpa, I only know that those who can identify medicines are called doctors, but I have never heard anyone else in the village talk about alchemists. ”
"This alchemist! Actually, it's about the same as a doctor, and it's also divided into nine grades, nine grades are the secondary, and one is the largest. It is different from the physician, who only needs to boil out the ingredients of the medicine, while the alchemist needs to use spiritual power to refine the essence of the medicine. Therefore, the efficacy of the same medicine in the hands of alchemists and physicians is completely different. Just like your Xingxue San, it can only be used to slowly absorb and regulate qi and blood, but after taking the Xingxue Pill, it can quickly heal wounds and replenish qi and blood. ”
"Then if I become an alchemist, won't I be able to make the injured people hunting in the village get better soon!"
The young man innocently said what he was thinking, and immediately smiled at the troll.
"Of course, if you become an alchemist, the villagers in the village will not be afraid of getting hurt!
"Okay, grandpa. ”
With that, the boy left the house and ran towards a group of small orcs.
"Alas, what a good boy, it's a pity that you were supposed to be the prince of the gods, but now you have to live with our beasts. ”
As the troll sighed, a bruised bear orc ran into the house.
"Juli Village Chief is not good, the Celestial Clan has found here, the east of the village is full of Celestial Clan people, the village chief, let's escape!." ”
When the bear man saw the troll, he spoke straight to his intentions.
"Run? When did we run away in the orcs' dictionary? You go and bandage your wounds first, and I'll call the others to make sure the prince survives no matter what." ”
After saying that, he handed over the blood scattered by the boy to the bear man before.
And then the young man came to the door of the house again:
"Grandpa, I just saw that Uncle Xiong seems to be injured, so I came over to see if I could help. ”
"His injuries are fine, except that he was scratched by wild beasts while hunting. By the way, do you want to see your parents. ”
"Parents?" the boy was visibly stunned when he heard the words.
"Yes, it's your parents! You're not too young now, it's time to get out of the village, don't you want to be an alchemist? Your father is an excellent alchemist, and you walk along the road west of the village to a town where your parents are. ”
The young man who heard the alchemist was also excited, and from his eyes, he could feel that he wished he was by the alchemist's side now.
However, when he saw the bear man being bandaged, he couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.
"But Uncle Xiong is still injured, I want to stay and wait until Uncle Xiong's injury is healed before leaving. ”
"Don't worry! I can heal your Uncle Xiong's wounds, so you can take some dry food and go west now! By the way, if you hear any noise in the village, don't come back. ”
The boy was puzzled by the troll's words, but he didn't understand the meaning of the words because he was too young, and walked straight to the west of the village.
When the boy was gone, the bear man spoke:
"Village chief, you really rest assured that he went out from the west of the village alone, not to mention whether there is a town in the west, our village is in the deep mountains! What if you encounter a wild beast on the way out of the mountain!"
The troll sighed
"Do you think I'm really relieved? But what's the solution, although none of us orcs are afraid of death, but I have to say that we are too weak compared to the Celestial Clan! He only dies if he stays in the village chief, it is better to let him escape alone, maybe if he is lucky, someone will take him in. I'm going to inform all the villagers that it's best to prepare for battle, and try to buy him a little more time to escape. ”
After speaking, he directly opened his spiritual consciousness and sent the news to the whole village. Because of the consciousness sent by the village chief's divine sense, all the villagers gathered at the village chief's house.
In addition to orcs, there are also many demon clans, but in essence, there is not much difference between orcs and demon clans. They are all races that possess the characteristics of both humans and beasts.
However, the orcs are more rugged in appearance in the place where they resemble beasts, and the demon clan is basically the same as humans except for the tail and ears.
However, the people in the demon clan are very beautiful, and their youth is eternal, so there will be other racial rejections.
When the troll saw that the people had come, he said to them:
"Dear villagers of Sihe Village, nine years ago, because I adopted the prince of the Heavenly Clan, now the Celestial Clan has gathered on the mountain east of our village, and I think you also know that the purpose is to capture the prince back. But we beasts don't have cowards who are greedy for life and afraid of death, so I let the prince go. And now all we have to do is to stay here and fight the Celestial Clan, and buy more time for the prince to escape. Of course, I don't blame you for wanting to escape and live, but remember what we said when we served in the Brave World Beast Country - Ling Ke died with a knife, and refused to live on his knees!"
"Ling Ke died with a knife, and refused to live on his knees!"
Hearing the troll's words, the villagers below also shouted out their words excitedly.
"General Juli, give an order! We lost the battle with the Celestial Clan decades ago, and now our brothers are all aggrieved in their hearts! Now is the right time to take this opportunity to give them a good job, so that they can understand that our beast clan is not easy to bully!"
"That's right! General, give the order! We've had enough of living incognito here for decades, and we've almost forgotten what war is like!"
The villagers were in high spirits and gritted their teeth. Obviously, these decades of seclusion could not change the orcs' desire for war, let alone erase their hatred of the Celestials!
The troll saw that the villagers were already eager to fight immediately, and he couldn't help but recall the scene when he was in the barracks of the Brave World Beast Country, and his heart couldn't help but ignite a lot of blood.
"That's good! Today we are at war with the Celestial Clan!
"Never die!"
"Yo yo yo! I didn't expect all the prisoners of war to be here! I can just clean up together, so I don't have to look for them one by one!"
At this moment, a very annoying man's voice came from outside the door, and the orcs rushed out of the door one after another.
I saw a group of soldiers in iron armor and big swords standing outside, there was no doubt that this was the army of the Celestial Clan.
And the man at the head was richly dressed, with a short sword at his waist and a handsome appearance, but the disdainful look on his face made people feel very disgusting!
"I don't know what happened when General Mu Guang came to my Sihe Village!"
Although the person named Mu Guang Juli hated it very much, in order to delay a little longer, he still spoke respectfully to Mu Guang without smiling.
"Sure enough, it is still General Juli's acquaintance, and it is worthy of being a nobleman who knows how to lift. I told you the purpose of this visit, we are here to pick up a child and go home! I wonder if the general is willing to hand him over. ”
Hearing the child, Na Juli naturally knew that it was referring to the prince of the Heavenly Clan, but he still pretended to be confused and said:
"Pick up the children home, of course that's a good thing! It's just that there are a lot of children in the village, and I don't know which child General Mu is going to take with him!"
Mu Guang is not a fool, of course he knows that Juli is fooling him! But after all, it is important to find the prince, so he still patiently said it.
"Who else? of course it's that traitor's child of the Celestial Clan!"
"A traitor?
Mu Guang was already impatient with Juli's time, so he directly erupted:
"Don't try to waste time on Lao Tzu, be honest and hand over the prince, I can spare the lives of you people!"
"But if I don't pay it!"
"Then let's all die!"
After speaking, he pulled out the short sword on his waist and stabbed at Juli, of course, Juli would not be stupid to let Mu Guang stab there, so he dodged to the side.
After dodging Mu Guang's attack, Juli also directly took off the giant sword on his back and slashed at Mu Guang.
"There is still a blue-level low-level purgatory sword, old guy, you really haven't forgotten to take revenge. ”
"The deep hatred of the sea of blood is toothless and unforgettable! Mu Guang, I still remember the sword you used to be back then, go and die!
After speaking, he directly slashed a sword, and of course Mu Guang didn't dare to hesitate to grab it to the side instantly.
The sword slashed into the ground and was not bounced off as others imagined, but was directly plunged deep into the ground. It can be seen how much damage this sword has.
"Juli, you still haven't grown like you did back then!
The short sword swung from side to side like a phantom in Mu Guang's hand, stabbing at the giant force.
Seeing this, Juli hurriedly pulled the giant sword out of the ground, and the sword blocked Mu Guang in the shape of a half-moon.
Mu Guang's sword stabbed directly on the giant sword, and the powerful breaking power made Mu Guang want to vomit blood.
Seeing this, Juli smiled and said:
"Aren't you just like back then, you haven't grown at all?
At the same time that Mu Guang was uncomfortable, the other soldiers of the Celestial Clan were also defeated by the Beast Clan.
After all, the Celestial Clan had never fought since they had fought with the Brave World Beast Kingdom for decades, and the Beast Clan had not forgotten to cultivate in the past few decades because of hatred in their hearts.
Therefore, the battle situation was also overwhelmed by the orcs.
The pain of throwing his arm forcibly Mu Guang picked up the short sword and stabbed at Juli again.
"Die with great strength! ”
Feeling the power of this stab, Juli naturally didn't dare to slack off and put the giant sword in front of him.
"The King of Men Sword and Shield!"
This move naturally couldn't stop Mu Guang's Baili spur, but it made Mu Guang's sword deflect.
So this sword did not stab Ju Li's body, but stabbed Ju Li's right arm.
However, even if he stabbed his right arm, Namu Hiroshi was smiling.
"General Juli, didn't I stab your hand again?"
There was no anger on his face when he stabbed him, but a strange smile appeared on his face.
"It's my admission that I did lose my right hand, but you lost your life!"
After speaking, his left fist hit Mu Guang's body directly, so how could Mu Guang withstand such an injury? So after flying out, he ran out of breath.
Na Mu Guang died, and he would never have thought that an orc would have such wisdom before he died. He thought that Juli would run away immediately after being injured, but he didn't expect him to take advantage of the situation to punch himself.
Of course, the huge force that killed Mu Guang was not pleasant, and the short sword was still pierced in his right hand. But he didn't dare to pull it out immediately, because once it was pulled out, the blood would spurt out with the wound.
But fortunately, the people in the village were all soldiers of the original Brave World Beast Country, and their combat power was not comparable to these third-rate Heavenly Clan vassal soldiers.
So although many people were injured in the First World War, fortunately, not many people died.
There is no doubt that this battle was won by Sihe Village. But just as the villagers were about to celebrate, a huge fireball fell from the sky.
Before the orcs could react, the entire village chief turned into a sea of fire, and a village seemed to evaporate.
At the spot where the fireball flew was a man with wings, and when he saw that the whole village was destroyed, he flew away. On the way to fly, I didn't forget to say to myself:
"A battalion of foreign troops can't even solve the orcs of a village, it's really a waste. Fortunately, I followed, otherwise it would be difficult for that little evil beast to explain to the God Emperor. ”
After saying that, he flew straight into the sky, and it was clear that no one in his life experience had survived his fireball.
But he overlooked that the boy was not in the village.
Besides, the boy has not looked back since he left the west end of the village. Although he heard the explosion of a fireball crashing down, he didn't pay attention to it because his esteemed troll power had told him not to go back.
"What happened in the village with such a loud noise? Do I want to go back and see? Forget it, Grandpa Juli said that no matter what sound I heard, I should not go back, if I go back, my grandfather will scold me." ”
So the young man did not stop his journey, hoping to get out of the mountains.
I don't know if it was because of the fireball, but the boy was not harassed by wild beasts on the way west.
A month later, a teenager appeared outside the small town in the west of Shanxi.
At this time, his clothes had been scratched by tree branches because of a month's wind and food, and his body was also full of mud.
"It's a small town ahead, and my father must be in it!"
