"Good things are born thrifty, and since ancient times, melons are bitter and sweet......"

There was a faint smell of blood in the smell of earth and grass, and in front of the taiga forest under the hills, the white-shirted scholar leaned against the tombstone and held a scroll, which was catchy.

In the meadow in the distance, a large sturdy ox was feeding with its head down, and in addition to the sound of its tail whipping its body, there was also a clicking sound, echoing in the dead grassland.

"Wei'er, your father is looking for you." A voice like rubbing withered grass came from behind the young scholar.

The scholar called Chu Wei, he paused, put down the scroll, turned his head to look at the old man in cloth behind him, and nodded: "Uncle Yi, I'll go back later." ”

With a kind smile on his face, the old man bowed slightly to the tombstone, then turned and walked into the depths of the dense forest, blending with the darkness.

Chu Wei put the scroll into his arms, looked at the tombstone softly, and said, "Mother, Wei Er will often come to see you." ”

Chu Wei lifted the hem of his clothes, turned around and walked to the big scalper not far away, and shouted nearby: "Aunt Niu, Dad is looking for me, I have to go home." ”

The ox's tail stopped wagging and looked up at Chu Wei as a piece of white bone with minced meat slipped from the big yellow cow's mouth.

"Ziyu~" The big scalper stretched out his black tongue and licked his bloody mouth, revealing a pair of sharp fangs, as if he was smiling at Chu Wei.

At the foot of the big yellow cow, there is a male lion that has been eaten to the point of only half of its body!

"Aunt Niu, you are not young, you have to eat more grass." Chu Wei shook his head slightly, took out a rag with black stains from his arms, and wiped the blood stains off the big yellow cow's mouth.

Then the big yellow ox lowered his head, pierced the lion's body with his horns, hung on the horns, and followed Chu Wei to the village where the smoke rose in the distance.

After Chu Wei left, the remaining blood stains on the grass immediately turned into a cloud of blood mist and rose, floating towards the dense forest, shrouding the surface of the earth, and was quickly absorbed by the earth.

When the blood mist disappeared, what was revealed were graves of different sizes, numbering no less than hundreds.

Except for the grave at the front, which has a tombstone, the rest are all graves without tombstones.

In front of the tombstone in front, there are three incense sticks, and the green smoke is slightly shaking.

Chu Wei and the big yellow cow walked into the village leisurely, and there was a three-zhang wooden door in front of the village, and an old broken plaque was hung: Chumen Village.

In the village, there were young men carrying water horizontally, and there were also children chasing chickens and ducks, strong men stopped chopping wood and looked at Chu Wei respectfully, and women held water basins and bowed their heads at Chu Wei, they seemed to be surprised by the lion's carcass hanging from the horns of the big yellow ox.

"Young Master Chu, I have good news for you." A little girl with red lips and white teeth ran in front of Chu Wei, looked at Chu Wei, smiled with her eyebrows open, and was so cute.

"Oh?" Chu Wei said with a smile: "Come and listen." ”

The little girl smiled smartly, did not speak, but pointed to the upper half of the lion's carcass on the horns of the big yellow ox.

Chu Wei looked at the big scalper and said, "Aunt Niu, you really can't eat meat anymore." ”

Although the big scalper was reluctant, he still put the lion's body on the ground, and was immediately grabbed by the lion's mouth by the little girl and dragged to his side.

"Your official certificate has been delivered." After that, the little girl dragged the lion's carcass and ran into the alley excitedly, and a crisp voice echoed.

"There's braised lion's head to eat tonight!"

Chu Wei shook his head slightly, and walked to the end of the street with the big scalper with two resentful eyes.

In a quaint small courtyard, Chu Wei walked into the living room with a touch of excitement on his face, and looked at an old man with a pale head sitting on the master.

"Dad, has the child's official certificate been delivered?" Chu Wei bowed slightly to the old man, and then looked at the document on the table beside him.

The old man handed the document on the table to Chu Wei and said, "Wei Er, you pack up and set off tomorrow." ”

"Yes, boy, go get ready." Chu Wei took the official recognition document as if it were a treasure, carefully put it in his arms, and bowed to the old man again: "The child retires." ”

After Chu Wei left, a figure quietly appeared beside the old man, it was the old man surnamed Yi who had informed Chu Wei to go home before.

"Master, the young master's departure is goodbye, are you really willing?" Old man Yi sighed, his expression full of sadness.

"Seventeen years, it's time for him to leave this place of death."

The old man seemed to be much older at the moment, and said weakly: "I, Chu Zhengnan, have punished evil and promoted good all my life, saving the common people, but in the end, I can't end up with a good death, and I end up with a whole house destroyed, hehe...... I am unwilling, I hate it, but now, I only hope that Wei'er will have a safe life......"

Old Man Yi had endless sadness in his expression, and said: "Young Master, he is talented and intelligent, he will definitely be able to be promoted here, and with the help of Lord Cheng, it is not difficult to obtain an official and a half position in the capital." ”

"Xiao Yi, you tell everyone, remove the charm, and send Wei'er out of the village tomorrow morning." Chu Zhengnan had resoluteness and reluctance on his face.

"Yes." Old man Yi immediately bowed to Chu Zhengnan.

The next day, in the dim morning.

In front of Chumen Village, Chu Wei was surrounded by a large number of villagers, and the leader was Chu Zhengnan, who looked at Chu Wei next to the ox cart with blessings.

"Wei'er, this short sword, you hold it for self-defense." Chu Zhengnan took out a small silver sword from his sleeve and handed it to Chu Wei.

Chu Wei took the small sword, and there were fine dragon patterns entwined on it, giving people a sense of extraordinary, Chu Wei didn't know that his father had such a sharp weapon.

"Well, take care, everyone, and say goodbye!" Chu Wei put away his little sword and bowed to everyone with tears in his eyes, Chu Wei couldn't bear his father, and he couldn't bear the fathers and villagers here!

Chu Zhengnan burst into tears and choked up: "The man has tears...... Don't flick, go for it! ”

"After the move, I will come back to visit you as soon as possible." Chu Wei took a deep breath, then jumped into the ox cart and said to the big scalper, "Aunt Niu, let's go." ”

The villagers kept waving goodbye to Chu Wei, and in the villagers' blessed smiles, the ox cart disappeared from everyone's sight as soon as it slipped away.

When the ox cart disappeared, Chu Zhengnan's whole person was even older, and a trace of death appeared faintly on his body.

After a long time, Chu Zhengnan retracted his gaze, he still had a sentence that he couldn't say before, that is, don't come back if you tell Chu Wei to go!

After Chu Wei left, the villagers still stood in place and kept waving their hands into the distance, keeping a blessed smile on their faces.

This scene seems normal at first glance, but when it takes a long time, it is very weird!

One hour, two hours......

All the villagers of Chumen Village are still standing at the entrance of the village, and they are still smiling and waving their hands into the distance, which makes the whole village more and more abnormal and extremely weird.

"Hey!" Chu Zhengnan sighed, leaned over, and slowly turned around and walked back to the village.

At the moment when Chu Zhengnan turned around, all the strange villagers, their bodies were distorted, and then with a bang, they turned into black mist and dissipated.

Not only the villagers, but even the entire village of Trumen became blurred at this time, and under the gloomy sky, silently turned into ashes, and everything disappeared and ceased to exist.

After a few moments, there was no Truman Village, only a ruin that looked like a netherworld hell, filled with gray fog and a gloomy wind, occasionally setting off a terrible whimper.

Everything here is as illusory, as if Truman Village is fake!

There was a small thatched hut in the center of the ruins, isolated here, and Chu Zhengnan sat on the chair in front of the door, his body was getting more and more lifeless, as if he wanted to merge with this ruin.

"Master, the young master has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely spend his life safely." A voice sounded suddenly, and a phantom appeared beside Chu Zhengnan, and the wind gusted.

The phantom's body was gray and a little blurry, he was the old man Yi before.

"In case, Young Master, he is gifted and has restored his foundation, he ......" The Phantom paused for a moment and continued: "He will live up to the name of this Chu Xiao. ”

"Chu Wei, remove the nightmare, hehe......" Chu Zhengnan laughed at himself and shook his head slightly, but there was a trace of embers in his eyes that could not be extinguished.

"I just want him to be an ordinary person!"
