Five-two-five flowing clouds
It took Ian a while to find the location of Liuyun Village, no, it should be said to be ruins. More than a decade ago, it was a paradise, with smoke drifting into the sky across several mountains. This small village deep in the mountains, with only a few hundred villagers, is like a darling of the heavens, with the blue sky above its head and the vibrant grass under its feet.
Mother Shirley liked this place very much, she said that she could hold the whole world with her hands open, but Ilyin did not feel so much, he shouted that he was tired from the journey and wanted to find a place to sleep, and Shirley said that it was like a pig. At that time, Ian was still young, and the most impressive thing was not the scenery, but the people, the young man who arrived in Liuyun one step earlier laughed like a rising sun, he took the luggage from Shirley's hand, and then leaned down and rubbed his head:
"Hello, little Ian, my name is Al when we meet for the first time. ”
In a blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, and the person who used to be in the past is no longer there. All that remains is the waning moon in the sky, and the rubble of ruins under the waning moon. Ian held his head high to prevent tears from flowing from his red eyes, and he took a few deep breaths before walking down the hill towards the clouds of his memory.
Most of the layout has not changed, the streets, the rubble, and the shadows of more than ten years ago can still be vaguely seen. The hall was cleared of the nearly four hundred corpses, but not the rubble. Maybe it's unnecessary, or maybe it's because I want the younger generations to remember this disaster, no matter what the original purpose was, at least the clouds haven't been erased.
This is Ian's past, the end of his parents, and the turning point of his fate. He had wondered countless times what kind of life he would have had if he hadn't had this catastrophe, at least not like now, walking alone in the broken streets with a knife and arrows on his back, alone like a wild dog that had wandered for many years.
Now that the dingo is home, he is trying to listen, sniff, feel, and try to find the past. But he couldn't find it, Liuyun had been silent for nearly fourteen years, and fourteen spring and autumn seasons were enough to smooth everything out.
Ian relied on his memories to find his former "home". The houses in Liuyun Village are very distinctive, their houses are elevated, about half a meter above the ground, supported by wood, and the houses themselves are hemispherical. From a distance, it looks like a floating fortress, and after the disaster of the clouds, these fortresses almost collapsed and "died" in the sea of fire. Originally, Ian thought that his home was the same, but he didn't expect it to be preserved, although it was not complete, a small half collapsed, but most of the place was still good,
He jumped on it, cleared the rubble in front of him, and stepped inside.
A strong musty smell hit his face, and he stood still in the doorway, waiting for a little to get used to the pungent smell before stepping inside. By the moonlight, he could barely see the contents of the house, a collapsed table, a few chairs with no legs, only half of the wardrobe remained, and the bed that was half sunk in the dirt.
As far back as he remembers, every night, Al would take his crazy self back to the house and hand it over to Shirley. Shirley half-coaxed and half-threatened to put herself to sleep, and Yilin, who was obsessed with alchemy, wanted to study all night every time, but was caught up in bed by Shirley's ears.
The three of them slept in the same bed, Shirley insisted on telling Ian a story, Ian said that your story is not good, it is not as good as what Brother Al told me, Ian said that your mother's storytelling level is to coax a three-year-old child, Ian is obviously four years old, and he has long been not interested in elves, so let me tell you about when I was in Alder-
Shirley said you shut up for me, don't keep repeating the messy thing of wearing open crotch pants and playing in the mud when you were a child.
Ilyin said, "What's that going on? That was my childhood."
Ian said Dad, you can't remember my age, I'm five years old this year!
......
"Everyone grows up with a lot of things to gain and a lot to lose at the same time. Generally speaking, there is often much more to gain than to lose, but people tend to miss those who are lost immensely. ”
Ian's mind suddenly sounded like this, some familiar, some strange, and he couldn't remember who had ever said it to him. It's just that he didn't care about it at the time, but now, he can taste the bitterness in this sentence.
He shook his head, trying not to let himself dwell on the memories. Even if he has the Iliad, he can't change the past. He had indeed lived in Liuyun for a long time, but he had lived in Blackstone City for even longer, and his career as a hunter had caught up with his time in Liuyun. Instead of nostalgia for the past that you can't go back to, you should look to the future.
At the end of the world, the reason why he took the precious time to come here was definitely not because he was passing by, or he made a special trip to miss the time.
He just wanted to confirm what the hell the Dragon Emperor was.
He slowly got up, stood on the commanding heights, and looked at the entire flowing clouds. Fourteen years ago, he was a little boy who didn't understand anything, and the Dragon Emperor brought him nothing but fear and torment, but now, as the Lord of Thorns in the Hall, he had to look at Liuyun from a different perspective, to see the strength of the Dragon Emperor Mussolini.
A total of 369 people died at the hands of the Dragon Emperor that year, including 224 ordinary villagers, 65 junior hunters, 65 intermediate hunters, 11 senior hunters and 3 quasi-princes. Excluding the ordinary villagers and junior hunters, the eleven senior hunters, the three quasi-princes and the sixty-five intermediate hunters were far more than the "king-killing" team over the years. Even the two teams of Tellmis and the Burial God Desert combined can't compare.
Even, Ian felt that if such a team was placed in the Yarman Forest to replace the elves, then it might not be him Ian who hunted Nathan, the Wind King, at that time, but this team. And this team is not equipped with the source of dragon slayer, the rest of the alchemy weapons are readily available, after all, half of the most outstanding alchemists at that time were gathered here, but Alder covered up the alchemist's list of sacrifices.
It was such a lineup that was so fragile under the Dragon Emperor that it was destroyed almost instantly. So, what is the strength of the Dragon Emperor? This is something he must know. Because if he wants to win the Doomsday War, he must slash the Dragon Emperor.
It had to be done, something that the entire Liuyun team couldn't do back then.
