Chapter 5 Departure
Shen Su returned home, there was no furniture in the small space, but it didn't seem so cramped. At this time, his brain was in chaos, too many things had happened in just two days, the villagers were gone, the master he hated was gone, and his dear sister was also taken away by the woman who buried the flowers. His mind was even more confused at the thought of this, the dream he had had in his sleep, the plant in the dream, and the boy.
Shen Su shook his head, he didn't have time to think about this now. In a flash, I thought of his sister again, the sister who kept chattering every day and took care of him for more than ten years, and thought of my sister saying that she wanted to raise a puppy and eat less meat to feed a puppy.
"Brother, look," Shen Xue said happily running to Shen Su with a little black dog in her arms.
"Don't look," Shen Su said
"Look at how cute he is. Shen Xue said while teasing the puppy.
One day half a year later, Shen Su found Shen Xue with a look of regret and said:
"Sister black hair...... It"
Shen Xue, who was busy lighting a fire, saw that his younger brother had changed his old style, and pretended to be pitiful, so he was very puzzled, so he asked:
"What's wrong with the black hair, it's biting your ass again. Hahaha" Shen Xue laughed as she spoke, patting her thighs.
"It was bitten away by the beasts of the mountains"
It didn't take long for Shen Xue to know that the black hair was not bitten away by the beasts in the mountains, but was roasted and eaten by his younger brother Shen Su in the mountains.
A few days later, Aunt Yang in the village asked, "Hey Xue'er, what about the black hair." ”。
"Oh! the black fur was bitten by the wild beasts of the mountains." Shen Xue said.
Shen Su lay on the table and thought about his sister's bits and pieces, remembered the black hair that was roasted by him and the fat man last year, and thought of his sister's teary eyes in front of the kang. ...... Before he knew it, he was asleep again.
Thousands of miles away, the human race, the imperial city of the Jin Kingdom.
In the hall of a tall and magnificent building in the imperial city, a middle-aged man sat on a throne and overlooked the entire hall. Under the throne, the four people stood upright, all of them wearing armor with solemn expressions, and one of them took a step forward and said respectfully:
"City Lord, as General Qin said, the second hall of the demon clan has all crossed the boundary"
The man on the throne was not too surprised when he heard this, as if he already knew it.
Then another man stood up and said:
"City Lord, it is reported that the second and twelfth of the twelve holy envoys of the demon clan appeared in Beiping Mountain, two hundred miles north of Shanxia Pass, not long ago. When the other three heard the words of the Twelve Holy Envoys of the Demon Clan, their bodies immediately tensed, and the solemn look on their faces was revealed. Even the man on the throne stood up and said slowly: "The Twelve Holy Envoys of the Demon Clan"
The hall suddenly became unusually quiet, and several people could hear each other's heartbeats.
"General Qin"
"As an envoy, you went to the Kingdom of Chen and the Kingdom of Yan to inform them that the Demon Clan was about to go south."
"General Tian and General Wang, you two will lead your troops to the Shanxia Pass and Tongling Pass to assist in guarding the pass, remember! If you encounter the demon army, abandon the pass. The middle-aged man paused for a moment before continuing:
"General Yan, stay in the imperial city and stand by"
"Why!" After a moment of silence, a shrill female voice and a group of gentlemen laughed in the hall.
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said impatiently, "Let's hurry up."
The sonorous and powerful voice of "The Last General's Order" resounded in the hall!
A few days later, in the mountains of Beiping.
The distance between the plain continent and the extreme north is 10,000 miles, and Beiping Mountain occupies eight or nine out of 10,000 miles. No one has ever really gone deep into Beiping Mountain. Legend has it that there are many unknown Jedi in the mountains. Huge caves, bottomless canyons, ancient trees that cover the sky and the sun, and ancient battlefields that break wealth.
At this time, Shen Su had already left Lianhu Village and headed towards Sanssouci City on the Plains Continent. Lianhu Village is located in the south of Beiping Mountain, which is infinitely close to the plain continent, but it is in the deep mountains, and it is impossible to walk out of the mountains without ten days and half a month.
Shen Su, who was walking alone in the mountains with a long sword on his back, not only gradually got used to the weight of the long sword, but also calmed down the grief and anger of the previous few days. Even if he felt extremely frustrated and helpless when he first stepped out of Lianhu Village, that frustration had been left behind in a few days of hurrying, after all, he was not a negative person. After all, he should be glad he was alive. Judging from the current situation, Murana and his sister were only taken captive, and it is very likely that they are still alive, at least he did not see the killing, and he did not see the bloodshed. This undoubtedly gave him the motivation and hope to move forward.
When Shen Su pushed aside the bushes and walked out of the last grass, it was noon half a month later. The brightness of the moment behind the unobstructed stung his eyes, and he closed his eyes and stood there for a few moments before relieving.
When he opened his eyes, there was an empty space in front of him. The same blue sky and white clouds, but without tall shrubs, they were replaced by green grass and wildflowers, covering every inch of land in view. Being in such an environment, Shen Su's mood suddenly became bright and comfortable.
Half a day later, it was almost dusk, Shen Su stood on the empty ground, looking at a city tower in front of him, the city tower in front of him was magnificent and tall beyond words. The two sides of the tower are connected to the endless city wall. The towers and walls were made of huge stones, each weighing 10,000 tons, one on top of the other.
"Shanxia Pass, folks, we have arrived at Shanxia Pass" There was a sudden commotion on the empty land. Shen Su heard the prestige and saw the grass not far to his right. I don't know when a group of people appeared, they were as ragged and dirty as Shen Su. One of them, a little girl of about five or six years old, was looking at him in a daze, holding something that seemed to be a steamed bun in her hand and putting it into her mouth, and the little girl had a round face and big eyes.
"Hey, little brother, you're also on the run. Come over and eat something and drink some water," an old man in the crowd shouted at Shen Su, who seemed to be the little girl's grandfather.
Speaking of eating, Shen Su is not hungry, in the mountains, he can find wild things at any time to satisfy his hunger, and he also brought a lot of cured meat. Shen Su was stunned, but still walked over.
This group of people is probably also a nearby villager, dozens of people gathered together, some old and some young. Seeing Shen Su walking over, the little girl's grandfather enthusiastically stuffed him with a steamed bun, and then handed over the kettle in his hand and said:
"Little brother, are you alone?"
Shen Su pinched the steamed bun in his hand that was as hard as a stone, and looked at the little girl beside the old man. The girl seemed to have just cried, a pair of big eyes shining with tears, looking at him flickeringly, the steamed buns that should have been white in her hands had turned gray, with a neat row of tooth marks on them, Shen Su looked at the little girl with a round face and big eyes in front of her, and her heart couldn't help but feel sour. Don't look around at the surrounding villagers, some are holding steamed buns and trying to suck Yun, some are drinking water, and some are eating grass roots.
He sniffed vigorously and said with a smile: "Old man, I have some cured meat here, let's share it with everyone!" After speaking, without waiting for the old man to react, he had already taken out the package and took out all the cured meat. He didn't want to answer the old man's question, and he seemed to be running away.
When the little girl saw a large bag of cured meat in Shen Su's hand, her blinking eyes widened, and she turned her head to look at her grandfather. Shen Su took out some cured meat and handed it to the little girl, and then handed the rest to the old man.
"What's so embarrassing?" the old man was a little embarrassed, but still took the marinated meat. He nodded at the little girl again.
Under the matchmaking of a bag of cured meat, Shen Su quickly integrated into this small group of refugees. They are villagers in the nearby mountains, and when they learned that the demon clan was heading south, they fled here, and prepared to enter the customs to find shelter. The little girl named "Roy" has a nice name.
"Old man, why don't you enter the customs. After eating and drinking, Shen Su chatted with the old man, Luo Yi lay on the grass not far away and looked at Shen Su's silver hair, and the other villagers were resting on the grass. It's not that Shen Su wants to stand, since he carried the wooden box given to him by his master, he has even been standing when he sleeps.
"Little brother, do you know that now the demon clan is going south, and the people have fled into the pass, and the mountain gorge pass has long been overcrowded, and now the city gate will only open after sunset every day. The old man said with a sad face.
While they were chatting, it was already sunset, and at the end of the horizon, half of the sun had gradually set. And this vast meadow has long been dotted with several groups of people. Among them, there are some cultivators.
