Chapter 20: Little Year

At dusk, under the city gate of Shanhaiguan, Xia Yang watched Li Zicheng get on the horse briskly.

"I'm going to Kyoto, pay attention to everything." Xia Yang calmly instructed Li Zicheng, at this moment he really regarded the big man in front of him who had not known him for a day as his friend.

"Hahaha, when you get to Yuanying, you will know the rampant nature of the master~" Li Zicheng didn't care about the turmoil in Kyoto, but laughed and joked about Xia Yang.

"Don't worry, soon." Xia Yang's calm words came out.

Li Zicheng looked at Xia Yang in surprise, what is the situation, who gave him confidence?

I just wanted to open my mouth to mock the seemingly ignorant young man in front of me, but I thought of his weird strength during the Qi cultivation period, and I still closed my mouth after thinking about it.

"There will be a date later! Xia Zhenshou! ”

"Sigh~" After Li Zicheng threw down a word of farewell, he quickly disappeared from Xia Yang's sight with the galloping horse.

"There will be a date later." Xia Yang looked at Li Zicheng's back and said softly.

The young man turned around and returned to the gate, and after a while, the gate of Shanhaiguan slammed shut.

…………

A thin boy kept swaying in the night, and his mouth seemed to be muttering something all the time.

"It's almost there, it's almost there......"

"You can't die, you ...... is dead, my father and mother still have Anbei...... There is no one to avenge the revenge of so many people in the city......" The babbling children's voices swayed in the twilight.

Wang Nian didn't know if there was the Terran Giant Pass called Shanhaiguan that his mother said with hope in front of him.

I don't know if there is a Terran Holy Dynasty that they have been concerned about for a hundred years by the tens of thousands of people in Anbei City after Shanhaiguan.

When Wang was young, he heard his father and mother teach him many times:

"Xiao Nian, in fact, we and you are all amazing people!"

"Hahahaha, your mother is right! We are in Anbei City! All of them are Terran heroes! ”

"In the future, you will also be a hero of the human race in Anbei City, and the emperor will give Xiao Nian a big official at that time!"

At that time, he was still young, and he thought that his father and mother were heroes, and the people in Anbei City were also heroes......

I also look forward to the emperor awarding him a big official, and I also look forward to the prosperity of the human race that my father and mother said.

It wasn't until he grew up that he began to follow his father and mother to the funeral, but the funerals seemed to be more and more, and in the end, it even approached one a day.

One night, he finally couldn't help but ask his father:

"Why, so many uncles have died? Why don't they have names on their tombstones? ”

His father and mother looked at each other and gave an answer that he didn't understand at the time:

"Actually, the uncles are not dead, they also have names, they are all called Anbei City......"

Wang Nian couldn't remember his doubts at the time, but he knew that after that day, his father and mother never took him to other people's funerals.

Later, when he was a little older, his father seemed to be gradually absent from his side, and every time he saw him, he always seemed to have sorrow on his face.

Wang Nian has asked his mother many times: "Where has Daddy gone, why hasn't he come home?" ”

But his mother always seemed to be perfunctory to him, so he gradually stopped asking.

Wang Nian is also older, and every time he wants to go out of the city with his friends to play, he is always blocked, and he seems to understand that there seems to be something outside the city walls......

So he no longer asks his father the reason for all this, he seems to understand where his father has gone, but he still doesn't understand what his father is doing.

Until one day he was woken up by his mother in a deep sleep and pulled up, he didn't have time to ask why, only to see his father standing in front of the door covered in blood......

He was held in his mother's arms and ran wildly in the night with his father.

They broke into the city and heard a voice he had never heard before.

It was a roar of madness, a cry of despair......

He finally saw it, he saw the father of his friends on weekdays, the old master in the school on weekdays, and the uncle next door......

They were all fighting with terrifying monsters on a city wall, and that night, he finally understood why so many uncles died every day.

The years are quiet because someone is carrying the weight for them.

Wang Nian was soon taken to a place by his father, and he saw many familiar people, many of whom were his usual playmates.

He didn't have time to ask anything, so his father and mother took them all out of Anbei City, and then they fled frantically.

But those terrifying monsters also seem to have discovered their traces and chased after them.

That night, his father seemed to have become the sword god of his dreams.

His father used his sword to cut a way out for them, but his father seemed to be left behind......

I don't know how long he ran, but his mother also put him down, and she finally stroked the top of his head.

"Xiao Nian, you have to go all the way forward, go to the Shanhaiguan, go to the Golden Dragon Palace, and walk to the highest ...... in the world."

After saying this, the mother smiled, stood in place and let him go forward, Wang Nian wanted his mother to accompany him.

But seeing her determined eyes, he knew that she was going to find her father.

"Xiao Nian, go forward! Don't look back! ”

Wang Nian didn't look back, running frantically in the night, he didn't even know when he was separated from his friends.

In this desolate night, Wang Nian was left alone.

Does he seem to be gone for a day or two? He couldn't remember anymore.

"It's coming, it's coming......" Wang Nian's stubborn eyes were not shaken by his loneliness and the cold wind of the night.

He wants to keep moving forward and go to the highest place, for his father, for his mother, for his husband, and for many people in Anbei City.

Avenge.

After a long time, he finally saw a blurred black shadow in the distance.

He knew that it was the city wall, but was it Shanhaiguan?

Wang Nian walked faster, and seemed to want to go to the city wall early.

The cold wind couldn't help howling, the night was hazy, and the year of the king finally came, under the city wall.

The three big words he saw finally rekindled hope in his eyes.

【Shanhaiguan】

"Dad, mother, I found Shanhaiguan......" Wang Nian said and burst into tears, because these ordinary three words placed too much expectation on him.

He had no strength, he was so tired, his body was exhausted and his spirit was so worn away that he could no longer stand.

In this way, he fell straight in front of the gate of Shanhaiguan.

Liu Hu and Lao Zhang, who were guarding the gate on the city wall, had already discovered this strange boy.

However, since this child did not look like a demon clan, they did not draw their bows and shoot arrows, but were silently vigilant.

until he saw that the boy seemed to have fallen before the city gate.

"Go see? It doesn't seem to be a demon clan......" Liu Hu and Lao Zhang looked at each other.
