Shen Xian stood the carved stone tablet in front of the grave, and he shed a night of tears, I am afraid that it has already dried up at this time, but his eyes are still frighteningly red. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He looked at Shen Qingtian's grave and said secretly: "Dad, I will bury you and my mother together, and you can reunite with her under Jiuquan, you can rest assured, I will live well!" After thinking about it, he looked at the grave on his right again, sighed, sat next to the tombstone, remembered Yu Qing'er's whisper before she died, and couldn't help grabbing a handful of soil and holding it tightly in her hand.

How I wish I could still hold your hand at this moment!

Why didn't I tell you what I wanted?

It's a pity it's too late!

"Qing'er, if it's you, you must already know my mind, right?" Shen Xian thought so, and took out a short wooden sword in his arms, which was the gadget he gave to Yu Qing'er earlier, "This can be regarded as a token I gave you!" Thinking about it, he buried the short sword in the soil, slowly stood up, and was about to turn around and leave.

"Senior Brother Shen, I actually like you very much!"

Shen Xian seemed to hear Yu Qing'er's voice, and turned back suddenly, but there was no one in front of him, only two graves.

Maybe I heard it wrong, Shen Xian thought so, and saw a golden bird land on Yu Qing'er's tombstone, chirped at him a few times, turned around and jumped down, dug out the short sword buried in the soil with his mouth, and actually picked up the short sword and flapped its wings and flew away.

When the bird was leaving, he didn't forget to glance at Shen Xian, and Shen Xian seemed to hear Yu Qing'er's voice again.

"Qing'er, are you that little goldfinch?" Shen Xian asked in his heart, but somehow he smiled again, turned around and left without looking back.

After going down the hill and returning to the dead martial arts hall, looking at the plaque still hanging on the door, Shen Xian sighed again, but immediately put on a smiling face and walked in. There are still many disciples in the martial arts hall who wear linen and wear filial piety, and none of them can reach the realm of martial artists, and the martial arts hall cannot be trusted, so they have to close down and dismiss everyone.

This is an unwritten rule in the Shenwu Continent, only martial artists or those above them can open a hall to teach apprentices, or establish a sect. Especially for the establishment of martial arts halls, there are a lot of rules and cumbersome, mainly to register in the relevant places, and pay a certain amount of taxes and fees every year, not just want to open it. Moreover, if something goes wrong in the martial arts hall, such as being kicked out of the hall and there is no martial artist or anyone above in the martial arts hall, then according to custom, it will have to be closed. Of course, there are naturally some people who are opportunistic and spend some silver to hire a martial artist to sit in charge, but the consequences of this are more difficult to estimate, after all, after changing the master, the martial arts taught are also different from before, and it is difficult to say what went wrong with the practice. Therefore, unless they are bent on making money, no one will really go down this road.

Shen Xian didn't want to do this kind of thing, in fact, he also thought about letting the scholar help him temporarily. But when I think of my own senior brothers, they are all simple people, and they are like brothers to him, and Shen Xian doesn't want any problems with them, so that's it.

"What are you still crying about, aren't you leaving?" Shen Xian smiled and looked at the senior brothers, some of them grew up with him, but he was Shen Qingtian's son, and he took the title of senior brother first.

"The master just passed away, but it's not good for us to leave like this!" Everyone has been taken care of by Shen Qingtian a lot on weekdays, and one day they are teachers and fathers for life, Shen Qingtian suddenly went, and these disciples are also like losing their fathers, which is really sad and sad. Just as he wanted to cry, he saw Shen Xian with a smile on his face, but he was a little stunned, and his tears were stunned.

"You all disperse, take some silver taels, go home, why wait here? The dead are gone, and my father and his old man don't want you to be so sad, you are still young, and you still have a good future......" Shen Xian's words were a little old-fashioned, but in Li, the martial arts hall is gone, so naturally he can't take care of so many people, not to mention anything else, he has to find a way to live.

Shen Xian saw that these people were stunned, so he immediately changed his face, and said with a straight face: "You all listen to me! The Qingtian Martial Arts Pavilion is gone, the owner of the pavilion has passed away, and this is my biggest in terms of seniority, I will order you now as the young master of the Qingtian Martial Arts Pavilion, immediately receive the silver and disperse, and go back to their respective homes!"

The disciples were stunned when they heard this, and they wanted to say something righteous, but they were stopped by some sensible people, they knew in their hearts that the saddest person here should be Shen Xian, but he came to comfort them with a smile. If they are strong, they are not as good as Shen Xian, and besides, the closure of the martial arts hall is inevitable, and if they insist on staying here, it is just a waste of time, and they will not be able to keep the martial arts hall! These disciples nodded silently and said, "What Senior Brother said is that we will not do anything if we stay here, so it is better to return as soon as possible! However, if we have the ability in the future, we will definitely revitalize the new martial arts hall!"

"Hehe, it's good that you can have this heart!" Shen Xian smiled, "I think my father and his old man don't want you to take over the Qingtian Martial Arts Pavilion, but want you to remember the principles of life that you learned from him, no matter where you go, you must continue to improve yourself!"

Everyone nodded, and then received the silver according to Shen Xian's meaning. Before leaving, he was still reluctant, knelt at the door of the martial arts hall, and raised his voice in unison: "The disciples of the Qingtian Martial Arts Pavilion must remember the master's teachings and never forget them for the rest of their lives!" After saying that, they kowtowed in unison, until their foreheads were bleeding, and then they changed their resolute expressions and turned away.

Shen Xian looked at the backs of the departing people and disappeared into the corner of the town, his smile dissipated, and then he sighed, and then looked at the familiar plaque, and felt a little sour in his heart. Although he said it proudly, Shen Xian didn't have a little bottom in his heart, where to go, what to do, if he was lost, but he seemed to be lost, where to go, he had to sigh.

"Virtuous nephew, now that things are over here, do you have a plan?" the scholar who appeared behind Shen Xian at some point asked slowly. At this time, the scholar's face was pale, without the slightest blood, and he looked like a walking corpse, but he was seriously injured because of the previous fight. Seeing that he was also weak when he spoke, he seemed to be a little too busy to take care of himself, and Shen Xian's rejection of his idea of supporting the martial arts hall seemed to be a little right.

"With my qualifications, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter a big sect like 'Tiangang Sect', if I go to a small sect, I may be mixed up for a while, but now I have distributed all the savings of the martial arts hall for many years, and I am afraid that the part I left behind is not even enough to fight the disciples of the mountain sect. So I want to go to a bigger city to work first, and then go to study art when I earn enough money!" Shen Xian seemed to have made up his mind, raised his eyes and looked at the scholar and said.

"That's fine, it's just a pity, I'm also seriously injured now, and I have to send the nine-tattooed dragon back to Bozhou, so I can't take care of you." The scholar glanced at Shen Xian and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it, just sighed.

"Uncle Yun'an, it doesn't matter, my father also said, men should be self-reliant, the world is so big, there is always a place for me to be idle!" Shen Xian didn't see the scholar's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, as if he had made up his mind after thinking about it all night.

"It's best if you think like this, but no matter where you go, you still write to me and let me know your situation, if you encounter a crisis, I will protect you with my life!"

"Thank you Uncle Yun'an!" Shen Xian hugged his fists and saluted, and without saying much, he simply packed his bags, said goodbye to the scholars, and prepared to leave for Qin'an City, the largest city in Luzhi Kingdom. Before leaving, he couldn't help but look back again, behind him was the cold hometown, and in front of him was the unknown mountain road, Shen Xian only left a sigh, and paced away.

After walking all the way for about three or four days, Shen Xian, who was alone, was still a little unaccustomed to it, and when he slept soundly at night, he would also dream of Shen Qingtian and Yu Qing'er, and wake up with tears. And when I woke up, my heart seemed to be hollowed out, and I was at a loss. Thinking of his father and Yu Qing'er, Shen Xian felt that the grass and trees around him were going to change into their appearance, and he felt a burst of panic.

Those pictures of the shining sunshine in the past, as well as Shen Qingtian's stern reproaches, warmed up again in his heart, making the tears that were not strong even more raging. And Shen Xian, alone in the face of the dead environment around him and his lonely heart, he can't help but feel timid. The road ahead is dark, whether to go or retreat, there is no clear-eyed person or a person who has come to consult for him!

However, he is optimistic by nature, and often thinks of Shen Qingtian's bold words, so as to motivate himself, so he does not dare to be too sad, since he has secretly made up his mind, then he will not retreat, so once he has a blank mind, he finds a stream to wash his face, and let all the sorrows in his mind be taken away by this flowing water, and he changes his resolute look and still goes to the destination.

On the fourth day, Shen Xian looked at a mountain from afar, and he could already see the gate of Qin'an City from afar. He quickened his pace, and after only half a day, he arrived at the foot of Qin Ancheng.

Qin'an City is the largest and most prosperous city in Luzhi Kingdom, and Luzhi Kingdom is only a small feudal country in Julei Country, located in Mengzhou, slightly northwest. The lord of the Giant Thunder Kingdom is called the "Emperor", and the feudal king in the Luzhi Kingdom is called the "King" to show respect and maintenance of the imperial power. Here we need to briefly talk about some secrets of the Shenwu Continent, as early as a thousand years ago, the Shenwu Continent once had a unified situation. The origin of the name of the Shenwu Continent is that the "First Emperor" Shenwu the Great was named after the unification of the continent. Emperor Shenwu is talented, it can be said that he is a genius, it is said that he raised troops to fight at the age of nineteen, and it took only five years to kill the north, south, east and west, and dominate the world. After dominating the world, in order to govern, he divided the entire continent into "thirty-six states", and canonized the "state pastor" and awarded the title of "king". Later, Emperor Shenwu died, and the king of the feudal feud had different intentions, and gradually went their separate ways, divided into a group of heroes, and fought for nearly a hundred years. Later, they each occupied the prefecture and county, abandoned the canonization, and established themselves as kings, establishing the current ten great powers.

The Julei State to which Luzhi belongs was established by Yin Tianqi, a general under the command of the original Shenwu Emperor, and is located in the south of the mainland, separated from another big country "Jingwu State" only by a mountain range that runs through the north and south - the Zongyun Mountain Range, and only leaves a gap on the road at the junction of "Mengzhou" occupied by the Julei State and the "Wuzhou" occupied by Jingwu State, and there is a waterway gap between Julei Haizhou and Jingwu Yongzhou. The gap on the road is occupied by Jingwu State, and connects the mountains on both sides to build a checkpoint, which is guarded by the most courageous army of Jingwu State, "Yuejia Army", named "Budu Pass", known as "the world's first strong pass", and in fact, it is also the case, Ju Lei Guo has sent troops many times to seize the Pass, and they have all been defeated and returned!

As for the water gap mentioned here, we will slowly describe it later.

Besides, Shen Xian had arrived at the foot of Qin'an City, raised his eyes to look at the gate of Qin'an City, the surrounding city walls were straight, towering into the sky, Shen Xian only felt that when he looked up, he actually faintly obscured the daylight, it was really huge and magnificent!

There were four soldiers standing on both sides of the city gate, silver helmets and steel armor, shining in the sun, they held their heads high, stood straight, did not move, their faces were solemn, and a silver halberd stood on the ground, also straight to the sky, looking majestic, quite heroic, and had to make people nod and praise.

Shen Xian looked at the four soldiers, one of them suddenly looked at him, his eyes met, Shen Xian only felt a pain in his eyes, he couldn't help but look away, and secretly said in his heart: "It's so powerful! This momentum, I'm afraid it already has the realm of a martial artist!"

Thinking like this, he couldn't help but look sideways at the soldier again, but this time the soldier smiled at him, and then became serious again.

Shen Xian was surprised again: "The soldiers guarding the gate of Qin'an City have the cultivation of martial artists, and everyone has the ability to open a museum and teach apprentices, so if the master of this Qin'an City, the personal soldiers and guards of 'Lu Wugong', should they have such a realm?"

In fact, Shen Xian didn't know that this group of soldiers defending the city was precisely Lu Wugong's personal soldiers!

Shen Xian sighed again and again, and stepped into the city again.

It was another scene in Qin'an City.

Don't say that people come and go, shoulder to shoulder, cars come and go, cars come and go, it is the street in front of you, and it is enough to be called "magnificent"!

According to the general town, the main street is at most 20 zhang, and no matter how big it is, it is only 30 zhang wide, but this street in Qin'an City is fully 50 zhang wide! The buildings on both sides are high, and you can see all kinds of shops and flags moving with the wind, and it looks like a strict army, which really makes people feel magnificent!

Take a closer look at the pedestrians on the street, most of them are brightly dressed, their faces are radiant and vibrant, and they make people sprout a fighting spirit and work hard!

Shen Xian was like a hillbilly entering the city, everything was strange, and the hawkers selling along the street, he looked at them one by one, and even found them. CityU really has content, and there are refining things on the street stalls alone, but the prices are not expensive, but most of them are playthings. Shen Xian guessed that most of these things were for the rich people in the city to play.

Follow the street all the way to the crossroads. Continue onwards to the King City of Qin'an, which is the residence of Duke Lu Wu. The east of the street is connected to the city, there are weapons shops, blacksmith shops, medicine shops, grocery stores, silk and satin villages, etc., etc., the west of the street is the restaurant tea house, and there is also a martial arts hall, which is specially for those famous and famous martial artists to rest for free and learn martial arts.

Shen Xian originally planned to come here to work, he studied refining, and if he wanted to find a refining room, he had to go to the east, but it was already noon, and he was grumbling with hunger, so he turned around and went to West Street, ready to eat and drink.

He didn't have much silver on him, and he didn't dare to go to those slightly better restaurants, so he simply found a small shop and asked for two side dishes to fill his stomach.

The decoration of this small shop is very simple, with four polished tables and chairs, except for the counter and other applications, there are no other decorations such as calligraphy and paintings, screens, etc. Even the shopkeeper of this small shop was dressed in an extremely ordinary way, which was extremely incommensurate with the gorgeously dressed crowd seen on the street before, which made people feel shabby.

It's just that although the shop is small and simple, there is an endless stream of customers eating.

Shen Xian didn't care about it, he ate by himself, he was about seven points full, and asked for a glass of white water to quench his thirst. At this time, a middle-aged man holding a bamboo pole and a cloth bag on his shoulder stepped into the store. Everyone recognized the identity of this person at a glance, he was a fortune teller, and the cloth banner of the bamboo pole read "God knows and I know the past and this life". Shen Xian felt that it was eye-catching, everyone who ran the rivers and lakes to tell fortunes should write "who is half an immortal", "cloth clothes god calculation" and the like, but he set up a new one, but it didn't seem to have any business, everyone just looked at him and turned their faces, should eat, drink, the shopkeeper saw it, and wanted to drive him away, but when he glanced at the small shop, and then looked at the down-and-out fortune teller, he sighed and didn't care about him.

The fortune teller entered the door with some thief eyebrows, a hard look, finally, the eyes must be, slightly surprised look, and then a few steps to the vicinity of Shen Xian, opened his mouth and said: "This son's eyebrows between the golden light, obviously a good thing is coming! I look at the son's temperament is introverted, and it will not be a thing in the pool in the future! Hehe, this coincidence, I met my 'iron abacus', and it is also the fate of you and me, I have a ring here, which can bring good luck to the son, I hope the son will accept it!" As he spoke, the man called the iron abacus took out a ring from his arms and handed it to Shen Xian, with a smile on his face, and shrugged his hand from time to time, intending to let Shen Xian take it.

Long ago in his hometown, Shen Xian had seen fortune tellers cheating, and it was like this, saying that the benefits were given to Zhang Lingfu and jade pendants, as long as you took it, then you had to ask for money, if you didn't give it, he would say that you would be unlucky, and the words would not be heard; if you gave it, it would naturally be fooled.

Shen Xian looked at the iron abacus and asked with a smile: "Then dare to ask sir, how much 'heart' is this ring worth?"

The iron abacus was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "That depends on how much mind the son has! If the mind is enough, the iron abacus guarantees that this ring can make the son soar; if the heart is not reached, hehehe, don't blame me for talking nonsense, you will be in a catastrophe! However, the son and this ring are very fateful, even if they survive the catastrophe, they have to accept it, this is fate!"

Shen Xian looked at the iron abacus and sneered, if he had listened to the iron abacus in his early years, he would definitely accept this ring, but Shen Qingtian had just passed away, and as soon as he heard the word "fate", he remembered Shen Qingtian's posture.

My life is up to me!

"My life is up to me!" Shen Xian was aroused by this sentence and blurted out, although his skills were not good, but one sentence still made people feel extraordinary, and even the original obscene and smiling face of the iron abacus was retracted for a while, revealing a rare solemnity.

But after only a moment's effort, the iron abacus raised his eyebrows and smiled, raised his right hand and pinched his fingers to calculate, and there was a burst of broken thoughts in his mouth, as if he was reciting some kind of life spell, but no one could hear it clearly. After a while, he screamed "oops", shook his head and said, "Childe, it seems that the fortune teller can't save you, you are in a big disaster!"

Shen Xian didn't believe it, he still sneered and looked at the iron abacus, he wanted to see what tricks this person played.

At the moment when the iron abacus finished speaking, five people walked in at the door of the shop, and the four of them formed a circle, and in the middle walked a man dressed in Wenshengyu, who was slightly shorter, and his appearance was a little poor, and his face was treacherous, and he didn't look like a serious person. I saw this person take a step into the door of the store, and suddenly the people in the small shop stopped moving, holding their breath, and seemed to be quite jealous of this person.

When the shopkeeper saw this person, his face turned white instantly.
