Chapter 002: Happiness and Sorrow

In the mountains outside Silver Star City, there are places with the back of the majestic mountain, the tiger standing on the dragon plate, the undulating and the majestic, and a new tomb has been added, which is actually just a mound, Liu Zihong sat on the side, looking at the magnificent mountains and rivers in the distance, and his heart could not help but be a little more heroic. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

I found a few bamboos, stood in front of the grave as a tombstone, and then respectfully kowtowed three times, got up and walked down the mountain without looking back, a new life is coming.

Leaving some memories from my predecessor, I know that my location is a country called Zhao State, this city is called Silver Star City, which is the capital of Zhao State, as for other places, I'm sorry that my predecessor has not heard of it.

I took a bath in the small river outside the city, and the sparkling river water clearly reflected my thin face, and I washed the torn clothes on my body, and cooled it on the bluestone slab by the river, and it dried in ten minutes.

There are many pedestrians on the main road to Silver Star City, such as the handsome boy who walks slowly and walks in three or five rows, the farmer who carries the burden to buy some fruits and vegetables in the city, and there are also down-and-out pedestrians like him.

It didn't take long for the city wall of Silver Star City to be more than twenty meters high appeared in front of him, and the sound of horses' hooves like drums suddenly sounded behind him, and in an instant, it was already behind him, and before he could turn around, the three horsemen had already swept past him, accompanied by a strong smell of blood, like a violent wind towards the city gate.

The first soldier in armor, with three red flags on his back, kept shouting: "Get out of the way, there is an urgent report from the military!" When he reached the city gate, he had already made way to pass.

The two warriors who were immediately behind him, both of whom were seriously wounded, saw that the mission was about to be completed, and just entered the city gate and rolled off their horses, not knowing what life or death would be.

People hulala surrounded him, Liu Zihong was accidentally squeezed up, it was difficult to quit, this body had been hungry for too long, there was a little strength there, so I could only go with the flow and watch.

Sure enough, the warrior was already unconscious, everyone was helpless, and the other two ran straight in the direction of the palace.

"There is still a pulse, who is the doctor, save him!" A young general in his twenties raised his head and shouted at the crowd, but unfortunately there was really a doctor who had time to watch the excitement.

"Pinch others!" A faint voice suddenly sounded in the crowd, and the general immediately swept his gaze, and everyone dodged one after another, exposing Liu Zihong to the outside in an instant.

"What is a human being?"

Saving people is like fighting fire, Liu Zihong didn't care about despising the other party's 'illiteracy', walked straight up, and pinched the philtrum of the unconscious soldier with his fingers under the vigilant eyes of several soldiers, and kept releasing and pinching it.

The sky has eyes, and two minutes later, Liu Zihong was about to lose his hold, the unconscious soldier slowly broke open his eyes, Liu Zihong let out a long breath, sat down next to him, and the crowd of onlookers applauded.

The young general put one hand on Liu Zihong's wrist, instantly understood, and after whispering a few words to the soldiers around him, he hurriedly left with the soldier.

So the soldier took Liu Zihong to have a good meal, and left a dozen taels of silver ingots, and was ready to leave.

"What a lot of effort, why worry about it!" Liu Zihong said politely, lest he lose his demeanor.

"Mr. is really a master, disrespectful!" The soldier picked up the silver ingot, saluted respectfully at Liu Zihong, and turned to leave, leaving Liu Zihong with a stunned face, which is different from the script.

In the bustling crowd, there are many young people, and there are also many people in shabby clothes, but you can look at them, they are full of something called hope.

The Silver Star Martial Mansion is recruiting students, and all people with outstanding talents can enter the Martial Arts Mansion to practice, even if the family is poor and hungry, as long as your talent is good enough, then this is not a problem, and the streets are talking about this, Liu Zihong can't do it if he doesn't want to know.

Outside the wall more than ten meters high, there are several giant bulletin boards, which clearly say that the Silver Star Martial Mansion will divide the talents of those who can practice into four A, B, C, and D, and only those with B-level talents or above can enter the Martial Arts Mansion to practice.

Liu Zihong muttered in his heart: "The so-called catastrophe will not die, there will be blessings, most of the traversers like themselves are masters of destiny!" So he looked at the team in front of him who was queuing up to receive the test number plate, and followed without hesitation.

The one in front of him looked like a rich man, and when he heard someone coming up behind him, he couldn't help but look back, covered his nose and fanned him, with a look of disgust on his face, he took out a piece of broken silver the size of three taels from his arms, and turned it in his hand: "Go over there, this is yours!"

was worried about how to eat, Liu Zihong happily took the silver and went to the next team, there happened to be a boy on the other side, hearing the voice here, he looked back, and was immediately shocked.

"Don't come here, how much he will give you, I will give you double!" Liu Zihong happened to be only three or four meters away, and when he heard this, he didn't hesitate to stop, and he still held the piece of silver the size of three taels in his hand, and gestured at the other party.

"Isn't it just money? this should be more than six taels!" With a disgusted look, he threw the silver over.

Ordinary people's monthly expenses are only about ten taels, and they came to eight or nine taels in an instant, and this money is really easy enough, if there are a few more rounds, it will be better.

Looking behind the two, Liu Zihong finally gave up the idea of returning to his original position, the most important thing is that he was afraid of being beaten and lined up in other teams, but this time nothing similar happened, which made him a little regretful.

At a time, more than a dozen people stood in front of the mentor, and they didn't see any movement, and those number plates were pasted on everyone's clothes, and they couldn't tear them off unless they took the initiative to take them off.

Liu Zihong also received a number plate, No. 999, which is really a good number, there happened to be a little fat man, crying and scolding passing by him: "How did you get such a number plate, it turned out to be No. 444, isn't this a curse on me?"

"Or, just give some silver taels, let's exchange them!" Liu Zihong leaned over without hesitation, and shook his brand in front of the other party by the way.

Seeing the above three numbers, the little fat man's eyes are inseparable, the same three numbers compared with his 444 and 999, it is simply the gap between **** and gold.

As for the question of money, it has never been a problem for the little fat man: "Okay, I'll exchange it with you, but how about giving a little silver tael, it doesn't seem that I'm stingy, how about a hundred taels!"

I touched my pocket, and found that there were only a dozen taels of silver, and my fat face couldn't help but blush, thinking of what I just said, I suddenly became redder and hotter: "When I came out today, I spent all the silver, you take this first, start the test tomorrow, and then give you a big one!"

Looking at the more than a dozen taels of silver in his hand, Liu Zihong was already very satisfied, as for what the little fat man said later, he didn't take it seriously at all, and getting it was the last word.

Originally, I was going to change my outfit and find an inn to rest, but I thought that when I entered the Wufu Mansion, I would have to spend a lot of money, so I put up with it for the time being, ate two steamed buns to satisfy my hunger, and found a place to make do with it at night.

The next day, I got up early in the morning, Liu Zihong came to the square, and there were already many people queuing up at the place where I signed up yesterday, but fortunately, this square is big enough, even if thousands of people are crowded here, it only occupies a small half.

Twenty black-robed instructors sat in the pavilion against the wall, each with a round jade ring with a diameter of half a foot in front of them, which looked very valuable and valuable.

The students naturally did not have such a good treatment, standing on the square against the gradually rising sun, withstanding the test of the sun, some young people were weak, and they were directly fainted by the sun before they could test themselves.

The process is simple and frightening, as long as you put your hand on the jade ring, then it will emit a variety of colors, different colors and brightness, representing different qualifications, as for what the principle is, Liu Zihong is not clear for the time being.

After standing for more than ten minutes, it was the turn of more than three hundred, which was not very far from him, and there were not many people who passed, Liu Zihong probably calculated that the more than 300 people who had been tested had passed about a dozen, and the low acceptance rate was scary.

And for those who were admitted, the teachers were still reluctant, they were all lit up with a color, accounting for half of the jade plate, it is estimated that they were barely able to take the line, and they were all second-class subordinates when they heard the introduction, no wonder the teachers were unhappy.

Not far in front of his team, there was a boy in a black brocade robe, who looked to be no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, with a handsome face and a radiant look between his eyes, which gave people a strong sense of confidence.

Sure enough, when his hands touched the jade ring in front of him, the red light emitted in an instant, and the mentor in front of him immediately lit up, and the light quickly covered most of the jade plate, the superior fire system, but this was only the beginning, and after a few seconds, the fire red fell, and the cyan light appeared on the jade ring, which also occupied most of the jade plate.

"Superior Wind and Fire Dual-System Method, First-class Superior Qualification!" With the tutor's happy voice, the scene instantly became noisy, this talent is destined to reach the level of Wuhou, as long as you work hard enough, it is not impossible to go further.

Of course, the number of such outstanding geniuses is very small, and then a large number of them are eliminated, but even if they are eliminated, they can still light up a color on the white jade ring, but the strength is different.

Gradually, Liu Zihong also understood that being able to light up one-half is the minimum standard, and the intensity of the light must be sufficient, otherwise it will be eliminated, and he can't help but feel a little nervous.

Soon it was his turn, the tattered clothes and the very stylish chicken nest hairstyle made him look very eye-catching in the crowd, and the two rich children also saw him yesterday, and did not hesitate to show their contempt: "It's really unfortunate that the stinky Hanako can also participate!"

"I bet he won't light up a tenth!" someone said.

"One-tenth, you're so optimistic about him, I feel like one-twentieth is about the same!"

"Doomed to fail, it's not fun to play like this!"

All kinds of sounds followed Liu Zihong's ear holes into his brain, making his palms sweat involuntarily, and his left hand was placed on the white jade ring, and there was no movement after a few seconds.

Liu Zihong hurriedly wiped the sweat from his palms on the torn clothes, and put his hands on them again, and now the others also fried the pot, what is going on, could it be that there is something wrong with Bai Yuhuan.

Even the mentor was a little surprised, stretched out his hand to hold the white jade ring, and immediately two rays of light lit up, proving that it was not the white jade ring's problem, and immediately remembered something, and stretched out his hand to put it on Liu Zihong's shoulder.

A flame-like energy entered Liu Zihong's body, and immediately made him feel like a fire was ignited in his body, and he couldn't help clenching his fists, and the sound of struggle came out of his throat.

It was only a few seconds before and after, Liu Zihong felt that the meridians in his body were torn, and he felt pain all over his body when he stood there, but fortunately, after experiencing the kind of life that was worse than death some time ago, his patience for pain had been greatly strengthened.

His throat was slightly hot, something rushed up, and he touched the corner of his mouth, and his hands were red and shocking.

But the mentor in front of him seemed to have discovered some big joke: "Hahahaha, this kid has no way, it is said that there may not be one of hundreds of millions of people in the entire Dongzhou Continent, it is really a waste of waste materials!"

All kinds of ridicule and sarcasm poured up from the crowd of onlookers, and even those who watched the excitement after being eliminated also said loudly: "This kind of waste, dare to come to the test, and I don't even have a little self-knowledge!"

"A beggar should beg for food, be a beggar for the rest of his life, and live like a dog!"

"Fuck off, shit, don't pollute the air here!"

Walking outside in despair, Liu Zihong never expected that he would be a complete waste material, could it be that his story is a waste material stream, but he has nothing on it except for that seal, could it be... His eyes lit up.

"Don't hurry up and get rid of the waste, it's just that you are a waste like you, staying in the same team, so that Lao Tzu failed the assessment!" With a cursed sound, he kicked Liu Zihong hard, and his already thin body, coupled with the meridians injured by the mentor, shook it, and fell to the ground.

Sharp pain came from the elbows and palms, and a large piece of skin and flesh was rubbed off, and then the fists and feet fell, and a group of eliminated youths happened to be full of anger and had nowhere to come out.

Unconsciously the strength is getting bigger and bigger, and the resentment of being eliminated is vented along the fists and feet, and falls on Liu Zihong's thin back, shoulders, legs, and head.

Curled up with difficulty, covering his head with his arms, no one would speak for a beggar, humble as those ants on the ground, Liu Zihong's psychology was full of darkness at the moment.

"Stop, you're too much!" Before he passed out, he heard a voice in a daze, déjà vu.
