Volume 1 Chapter 1 I hid in the dark
Valkyrie City.
The figure formation is paved.
The lazy shopkeeper Su Tuzi yawned, looking at the bustling crowd outside the door, but none of them stepped into their shop to discuss business. After muttering a sentence at the corner of his mouth, he closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
It is said that there are many people in Martial God City, and there are many ways to make money, bullshit!
In the backyard, there was a drunkard lying on the ground half-leaning on a willow tree, taking out a pinch of wine gourd every few breaths.
In front of him, a teenage girl dressed in green and with a ponytail on the back of her head held a Bailuo sword, wielding it like a moon and a hook. The sword moves are fast and pure, and some of the movements even look a little awkward, without any beauty.
After a few moments, the little girl gathered her sword and stood still.
Glancing helplessly at the sleeping drunkard master and the sleeping uncle Sutuzi in the shop in front of her, the little girl looked at the sky and stuck out her tongue speechlessly.
"A drunkard, a lazy worm!"
She pouted her nose and whispered a complaint, then hurriedly went upstairs to wash. The small backyard building has three floors, and her own room is on the second floor.
"Eh!"
As soon as she stepped on the stairs, she suddenly covered her head and screamed softly, and then turned her head to look at the drunkard master who was still sleeping under the willow tree twenty meters away. The drunken old man rolled over and scratched his ass as if nothing had happened.
"Humph!"
After snorting softly to express her inner spiritual qualities of neither humility nor arrogance, she rubbed her head and left.
After taking a shower, the little girl quickly changed her clothes. After cleaning up, I put on a plain cloth and went into the kitchen of the courtyard.
The kitchen is located on the east side of the small courtyard, and the door opens to the west, right across from the willow trees.
The old willow head under the willow tree shook the empty wine gourd and hung it back on his waist helplessly.
Looking at Xiao Yiyi's diligent figure busy around, the old willow burped with relief, "My baby apprentice is really more and more pleasing to the eye, both diligent and beautiful." Yiyi, which stinky boy marries you in the future, he must be the eighth generation of ancestors. ”
"Hey, hey." Liu Yiyi smiled mischievously, and her energetic smile like a small willow tree and her cute pursing lips were extremely attractive.
"But... Such a well-behaved Yiyi, if his master runs out of wine in the gourd, he will definitely go to help his master buy a bar very obediently? Old Willow pretended to be serious.
"Dreaming!"
The little girl would not be wronged, and shook her ponytail into the kitchen.
She won't be fooled!
It was getting dark, and the sound of Xu Tuzi scolding came, and today was obviously another day without business.
"Yiyi, what's going to eat tonight?"
Old Willow yelled into the kitchen.
A little head poked out of the kitchen door, and said a little mischievously, "The porridge boiled at night is still the porridge with preserved eggs and lean meat that you don't like." You two seniors of Bigu should stop being greedy. ”
The old drunkard rolled his eyes and went out with a wine gourd.
Su Tuzi, who came to the courtyard, shook his head with a smile, "If you don't drink me, the porridge boiled by Yi Yi warms the stomach and is nutritious, and the taste is still excellent." It's a pity that you old drunkard didn't have the chance to taste it, and it seems that I am more blessed. ”
Liu Yiyi, who was snickering in front of the stove, hurriedly filled a bowl for her uncle.
Su Tuzi, who drank half a bowl of porridge quickly, remembered something, "Yiyi, remember to send that kid something to stutter, don't starve to death at home." ”
Liu Yiyi nodded in response, "I know, Uncle Shi." ”
Half an hour later, Liu Yiyi walked up to the second floor with a bowl of steaming porridge, and there were only two people living in several rooms on the second floor.
Next to her own room, there was a small, darker house. The door was not locked, Liu Yiyi knocked lightly on the door and pushed it open.
"It's time to eat."
There are no windows in the house, and the curtains block out the only light source. Fortunately, the door behind him was ajar and there was a hint of brightness, otherwise Liu Yiyi would really be afraid of bumping into the rice with her meal.
There was no response in the room, as if there was no one at all.
With the faint light and almost a year's intuition, Liu Yiyi slowly walked to the bed with her meal. It wasn't until her eyes adjusted to the darkness that she could vaguely discern where the figure was curled up on the bed.
"No!"
Liu Yiyi handed over the porridge and took it with a hand in the dark.
The thin figure on the bed silently began to eat, not even making a sound when eating.
The little girl sat on the edge of the bed with her feet swaying, and although the room was a little dark, she did not open the curtains. Instead, he was very skillful in groping around the table for a while, holding a puppet or something like that in his arms.
"Last night's stars were pretty, right?"
"Hmm.." There was a faint response from the bed, barely audible.
Liu Yiyi said tentatively, "Or.. Walk with me to the moat tonight? I'm so pitiful, I've been trapped at home by Master for more than half a month, and I haven't even left the door. I really want to go out today, but it's the first time I've invited a boy, so don't be ignorant. ”
The sound of drinking porridge stopped abruptly.
Liu Yiyi turned her head with a slightly inquiring gaze, and the two were speechless for a while.
The black shadow who subconsciously curled up shook his head slightly, but he seemed to remember Liu Yiyi's care for him for nearly a year, and he shook his head halfway and stopped.
After a long time, the black shadow struggled to nod her head, and then she smiled and said, "You eat first, and I'll come up and call you after I'm done washing the dishes." ”
Liu Yiyi, who was holding an empty bowl, quietly brought the door to the door.
Looking at the empty bowl and the villain wood carving in her right hand, she was inexplicably happy.
Recently, the gap between him and her has become smaller and smaller, from the very beginning of the door to the fact that he can now call him out of the courtyard at night to admire the moon. The obstacles in the other party's heart were slowly dissolved by his own warmth, and the sense of accomplishment in Liu Yiyi's heart arose!
And the other party can start carving wood carving, which means that the mentality has been adjusted a lot, and he is no longer as depressed and depressed as before!
She can't wait to have a new partner to play with her practice, otherwise it will not be interesting to face the combination of a sleepy uncle and an alcoholic old man all day long!
Just after sunset and the twilight first appeared, Liu Yiyi couldn't wait to get out of her house.
"Knock knock!"
She knocked lightly on the door, but this time she didn't go in.
The wooden door slowly opened a crack, and it was eerie and silent, as if there was a great terror in it. After a few breaths, Liu Yiyi didn't see anyone come out, and immediately thought of something.
I saw her quickly dodge into the house, grab the arm of the hesitant figure in front of her and walk out.
The black shadow seemed to hesitate a little, and let out a teenager's panicked voice, "I... I... You don't..."
In the twilight light, a dark shadow reveals its true face. He was a short-haired boy with clear eyebrows and some weak and thin, the boy was as big as Liu Yiyi, wearing an old blue brocade robe, and his hair was dirty and curled on his head. Despite the dark circles under his eyes and dirty hair, he still looks upright.
If the dodge in his eyes is replaced by perseverance, he must be a rich boy with excellent upbringing.
Xu took into account the young man's heart, Liu Yiyi frowned and thought about it, and said, "Wait for me." ”
With that, she ran back into the house. After a few moments, he took out two colored masks and handed one of them to the teenager.
"Well, the mask that Master bought for me, the one for the dog, and the one for the cat I use for myself, we are not afraid of being recognized if we wear it."
The thin and sickly white hand took the handsome puppy mask, and looked at Liu Yiyi, who had already put on the cute kitten mask, Jiang Yun opened his mouth and finally didn't say anything to refuse.
As soon as Jiang Yun put on the mask, Liu Yiyi dragged him away without saying a word.
Two generally large figures walked down the stairs quickly, and Liu Yiyi said excitedly along the way, "Tomorrow the White Bird Sword Pavilion will enroll students, and tonight will publicize the ceremony on the moat!" The White Bird Sword Pavilion only recruits female disciples, and the people who came to recruit today are all extremely beautiful beauty sword cultivators, so don't secretly be obscene under the mask when you arrive. ”
Jiang Yun was held by the hand, until the moment Liu Yiyi opened the door, he subconsciously raised his hand to cover his face, afraid that outsiders would see him. It's a pity that Liu Yiyi's eyes are quick to hold him down.
Remembering that he was still wearing a mask, Jiang Yun didn't twist anymore, he stood as if he was in a different world, looking around in confusion.
The cars and horses in front of the door are noisy, and the people are like a tide, and this scenery has not been seen for a long time.
He has been hiding in his room for most of the year, looking at the street lights strangely and familiarly, and a trace of uneasiness and nostalgia flashed in his eyes.
"Let's go, let's go."
Liu Yiyi, who was wearing a dark green skirt next to him, gave him a few seconds to get used to, and then pulled him to walk quickly while urging.
The moat is a circular river in the city of Martial God, enclosing the four districts of the city in the middle. The water of the river is deep and shallow, and there are even fish and shrimp in the shallow places, which are crystal clear.
However, no one dares to fish indiscriminately, after all, there are many fierce beasts among these sea species, and there are many demon cultivators who hide at the bottom of the river.
In case a demon cultivator comes out, it is not certain who will eat whom!
It is rumored that the moat was brought by a certain master of the Heavenly Surveyor, who moved mountains and seas, and spent a lot of money to arrange a formation in it, replacing the sea water from the distant sea into the moat every day. Because of the formation, this river is a light fragrance all year round, and the people who live next to it can smell it to nourish and calm their minds, and feel comfortable.
As for the White Bird Sword Pavilion, it is a sword cultivation sect. In Martial God City, the strength may be average, but the fame is not small.
Its sect only recruits female disciples, and their appearance and talent must be of the highest grade in order to be appreciated. Therefore, this sect has left a lot of reputation for Pure Heart Sword Immortals and Jade Girl Sword Immortals. The beautiful sword fairy with both strength and appearance naturally has many suitors.
A section of the east moat.
"There are fewer people here, let's just stand here and watch."
Liu Yiyi pulled Jiang Yun, and the two petite figures did not dare to squeeze into the crazy crowd, but hid on the grass relatively far away. At this time, the shore was already crowded with people, and there were many cultivators among them, but with so many cultivators and mortals together, no one dared to create chaos.
Just because on the moat, every few tens of meters, there is a cultivator dressed in white and wearing a white mask on his face, either flying with an imperial sword or standing on the waves.
These white-clothed men are uniformly dressed, and they are tattooed with strange stone patterns on their chests.
The strange thing was that all the people on the shore, including the powerful cultivators, tried to avoid the area where the man in white was located, as if they were afraid that they would be implicated if they got too close.
The moat is under the jurisdiction of the Sky Survey Supervisor, and the line of white clothes is naturally the law enforcement officers of the Sky Survey Prison. They are the most powerful cultivation force in the Biyou Kingdom, managing and restraining the entire cultivation world, preventing cultivators from killing and abusing mortals, and maintaining the stable operation of the kingdom.
White clothes and white masks are their standard outfits.
If the White Bird Sword Pavilion wants to hold a ceremony in the moat, it needs to apply to the Sky Survey Supervisor in advance. After paying a certain fee, they will be allowed to perform the ceremony in the sky on the moat, and the Sky Survey will also send law enforcement officers to maintain order on both sides of the river.
Otherwise, not to mention holding a ceremony in the moat, even the Sky Swagger will be invited to tea by the Sky Survey Supervisor.
In the Biyou Country, no one dares to challenge the authority of the Sky Survey Prison!
"It's coming, it's coming!"
The sound of excitement coming from the front of the river suddenly lifted the anxious people who were waiting, and three or two cultivators who were meditating cross-legged, or four or five mortals gathered around to discuss how beautiful the fairy was, got up one after another.
A long sword rides the wind and waves, the white bird stares at its clothes, and the sword light adds to the clothes!
