Chapter 1: The Wordless Ending
"Whew...... Call....... β
In a dimly lit forest, a young man is galloping!
He was carrying a roe deer, but he was running faster than a horse! The green plants on his side were stretched into afterimages in his vision, and his long breath was like a beating of a drum.
His strength was almost exhausted, but he still tried his best to maintain his fastest speed, as if something was chasing after him, and if he was only half a step slower, he would die!
But there was nothing behind him.
In this not cold weather, every breath Zhang Yuan breathed, the air he spit out was a white mist condensed to the extreme, which gradually dissolved after a meter away.
If it weren't for the fact that his strength was almost exhausted at this moment, this white mist could have erupted three meters away.
The strong heart beating in the chest cavity continuously spurted blood into the major blood vessels in his body, and he could clearly feel that the thick and clumsy qi and blood contained infinite explosive power when surging!
Exhaling into a mist and bleeding like mercury was one of the signs that martial arts cultivation had reached its peak.
However, this is already yesterday......
In this era, martial arts have been declining, and it is difficult to even protect oneself.
A road that does not even have the power to protect itself is not worthy of being called a "way."
Zhang Yuan ran out of the forest, only to see a city in front of him with bright lights in the distance, and his pace couldn't help but be a little faster.
Looking to the left, I saw that between the endless mountains in the distance, a round of the sun gradually sank, leaving only the last little bit of corona outside, and it took a few more breaths, and even this halo would disappear completely!
Zhang Yuan's heart sank: There is not enough time!
At this moment, the roe deer on his back is getting heavier and heavier, and if he throws it down and reduces this weight, it may be too late!
was about to throw it on the ground, and immediately thought of the expectant eyes at home, Zhang Yuan gritted his teeth, mustered up his last strength, and ran desperately towards the city gate.
"Hurry! Faster!"
At the city gates, the crowd was frantically squeezing inward, as if something was chasing behind. From time to time, someone was knocked to the ground, but he didn't say a word, and then crawled to the ground and squeezed into the city.
With a "click", the mechanism was activated, and the heavy gate slowly descended from above, and above the dark blue faΓ§ade, a huge sigil with a faint halo was revealed little by little, revealing an extraordinary coercion and heaviness.
At this time, there were still dozens of people who had not yet squeezed in, and the whereabouts of the gate stimulated everyone to go even more crazy.
When the last bit of sunsickness has completely sunk......
The light faded rapidly between heaven and earth at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if the sun sinking in the west was like a candle blown out by a giant.
The gate fell slowly but resolutely with a roar, and there was only a gap half a man high left from the ground!
At this time, a fight began to break out in the crowd, and despair spread in everyone's hearts, crying, yelling, and scolding.
Everyone didn't notice that a stream of wind and dust was rapidly approaching the city gate, only to hear a series of "bang bang" banging sounds, Zhang Yuan, who was rushing wildly, looked hideous, and knocked five or six people one after another, but found that there was only a gap of less than half a meter left at the city gate, and the dense human body was stuffed in it, some showed a buttocks, some only left their legs out, and some only stuck a head into it......
Zhang Yuan's eyes were about to crack, and when he exerted his strength on the soles of his feet, his upper body leaned back, and the whole person slid on the ground like a flying fish, and with this force, he kicked a fat ass that was struggling desperately outside the gate, kicked it in, and then closed his chest and abdomen, and rolled towards the gap where the slap came high......
Muddy and sandy face, the line of life and death!
At the moment of rolling, because his hip bone was too wide, he was squeezed by the narrower and narrower gap, Zhang Yuan gritted his teeth, took a deep breath again, and squeezed through the pain!
Suddenly, there was a "pop" sound, and there was a sharp pain in the head!
Zhang Yuan's soul flew out of the sky, and he was sad in his heart, thinking that he had been cut by the jack gate and divided into the first level!
At this moment, a tall fat man suddenly knelt on the ground, hugged him tightly, and cried out: "Big brother, thank you for kicking me, otherwise I will have to be cut in half!
Zhang Yuan was stunned, and touched his head with trembling hands......
It turned out that the bun was crushed and the scalp was torn!
I couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief in my heart, and the joy of escaping death filled my chest. Look at the city gate again, in the dazzling blood lie rows of stumps and broken bodies, some of them are cut off at the waist, and the upper half of their bodies crawl weakly twice and then no longer move; some of them have their legs broken together and gradually lose blood and die of blood loss in a coma; and those who are more fortunate enough to survive when their soles are crushed into flesh by the gate.
In the cries of the bleak wind and mist, Zhang Yuan wordlessly broke away from the fat man, picked up the corpse of the deer that was only half left, and strode towards home.
The fat man behind him stood on tiptoe and shouted from afar: "My name is Fan Tong, big brother, remember me, I will repay you!"
It's dark, it's like ink!
At this time, there were still a dozen or so people left outside the door, crying and pleading one after another, beating in vain on the door that separated the two worlds.
Suddenly, a scream tore through the hope of the living, and the scalps of those in the city who were gasping for breath and glad that they had survived were tingling.
In the darkness, there was a chilling chewing sound and a strange hissing sound twisted to the extreme.
......
Zhang Yuan pushed open the door of the small courtyard, threw the body of the half-roe deer on the ground, and let out a heavy breath, with a happy smile on his face.
"Bing'er, I'm back!"
Half ringing, no one answered.
Zhang Yuan looked around and saw that all the rooms were black holes, and he suddenly felt bad.
Carefully pushed open the door, felt the darkness and lit the oil lamp, only to see that everything in the house was as before, with three dishes and one soup on the table, and it seemed that no one had touched it.
Zhang Yuan was stunned for a while, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the dish into his mouth, and found that it was already cold and chewed like wax.
Or are you going out to visit the house? No, who is going to visit another house these days.
Just when he was confused, he suddenly found a piece of paper pressed on the table, Zhang Yuan took it out and looked at it, and the familiar lines of Juanxiu's handwriting came into view.
The husband is as good as a letter when he sees it
Since the drastic changes in heaven and earth, Mengjun has been protecting him for more than ten years, and the concubine is grateful.
Now the old scene is no more, livelihood is difficult, and human life is as cheap as a dog, and the day is precarious. Jun is obsessed with martial arts, and he can be the pride of the old days.
It's just that the world has changed greatly, there are new things every day, the immortal gate is coming, the martial arts have long been insufficient, and the concubine has been persuaded for a long time, but the husband always doesn't listen.
A few days ago, there was an immortal master who said that the concubine was quite qualified, and she was enough to get started. The concubine pondered for many days and decided to be born to practice.
The food on the table is the last time the concubine cooks for you, you and I husband and wife, the fate is all here, don't think about it!
......
Zhang Yuan gently put down the letterhead, stunned for a while, and then casually lifted the rice bowl and chewed silently until the food on the table was swept away.
Then he washed the dishes, cleaned the room again, glanced at the familiar surroundings with cherishment, and finally blew out the oil lamp, and lay down in the dark.
Between the pillows and quilts, the residual fragrance still lingered around the tip of his nose, lingering, and Zhang Yuan gradually fell asleep in some kind of drowsiness.
Not long after, above the dark dome, a little golden light suddenly pierced the endless darkness.
At this moment, many people with good eyesight looked up one after another, only to see a carriage the size of a full moon, shining with dazzling golden light galloping across the sky, leaving a trace of burning light and flame in the place where the carriage ran, which did not fade for a long time......
A Taoist looked up and sighed: The three-year period has finally arrived again!
Many mortals lamented in unison: How did the three-year period come again!
At this moment, a little golden light fell from the carriage, as if the owner of the carriage had accidentally dropped something, and this golden light fell into the mortal dust like a meteor.
......
The sun rises in the east, the heavens and the earth are bright again, and many people pour out of the city gates, either busy with the day's livelihood or looking for their own opportunities.
Zhang Yuan got up silently, tied up his messy hair, which was a lot shorter, picked up the long sword, pushed the door and walked out.
As soon as he took two steps, he couldn't help but be stunned. I saw several people with serious expressions standing in the courtyard, and there was a ...... on the side
A woman who has lived with him for ten years, Sima Bing!
The picturesque woman's eyes lit up, but she was not glad to see him.
"Immortal Master, the little woman watched in the Daoist Courtyard on the top of the mountain last night, and saw that thing fell here, because it happened to be the place where the concubine lived, so she recognized it at once. β
The eyes of the Taoist leader were like electricity, sweeping towards Zhang Yuan's whole body, and for a while he felt like he was being seen through.
"Something, hand it over!" said the Taoist lightly.
Zhang Yuan withdrew his gaze from the woman, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know what the immortal master said, I still want to mention a little bit or two!"
Sima Bing looked at Zhang Yuan, his beautiful eyes flashed, and he said calmly: "Last night, there was another god surveying the sky, and a treasure fell from the sky and happened to fall to ...... If it falls into your house, that thing is useless to you, so quickly take it out and give it to the immortal master. β
Zhang Yuan pinched the hilt of the sword hard, then closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then opened his eyes, looked at the woman, and said in a low voice: "This is the roe deer that you hunted yesterday, don't you want to eat meat? This is enough to eat for a while." β
Sima Bing frowned his good-looking eyebrows, looked at the body of the half-roe deer, and said with a complicated expression: "What nonsense are you talking about, quickly ...... the treasure." β
Zhang Yuan smiled abruptly: "What treasures do I have? If you don't believe it, come and search it!"
The first person looked blank, but a clear light appeared in his eyes, and he swept around, and suddenly his eyes were full of anger: "Ant dare!"
This person pointed at his halberd, and a violent impact that was invincible came suddenly, Zhang Yuan only had time to cross the sword, and his eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of blood red, and the whole person was suddenly torn apart.
"Martial arts...... Is it really not as good as Taoism?"
After the catastrophe, the two of them lived in a snail hut, dyed a crimson in Sima Bing's indifferent gaze.
At this moment, a bit of golden light flew from the shattered flesh and blood, and the halo bloomed in the greedy gaze of the Daoists, covering all directions......
