Out of the White Mansion is only half a stick of incense, Ye Feng has already arrived at the foot of the mountain, there are few people on weekdays in the back mountain, the only way up the mountain has become overgrown, and the light is dim at night, you can only barely see a trail, but fortunately there is moonlight on the road and you will not get lost.

Ye Feng walked slowly on the road, and the constant sound of insects in his ears made him relax a lot, at least not a dead silence.

Walking to the mountainside, you can already see most of Izumo Castle, the mountain is brightly lit, there are many pedestrians on the road, and you can vaguely hear bursts of abuse from time to time.

"It turns out that Izumo City at night is so ......lively," Ye Feng couldn't help but say to himself.

Since that incident, Ye Feng's personality has slowly changed, he is no longer as cheerful and active as he was three years ago, for three years, he stays at home on weekdays, and occasionally goes out, but also in the weather when there are few people, either strong wind or heavy rain, he has long forgotten what Izumo City used to look like.

"Although it's beautiful, but if you don't hurry up, I'm afraid that when I come back, the pastry seller will have to close the stall, and when the time comes, it is estimated that the girl will be indispensable to say."

Ye Feng came back to his senses and quickened his pace, and after walking for less than a stick of incense, he finally reached the top of the mountain.

"The last time I came with me, there was nothing here, and the grass grew too fast."

Looking at the tall weeds in front of him, Ye Feng looked depressed, and after a while, he said helplessly, "Forget it, it's just right, lest someone come to disturb you......"

Ye Feng brushed aside the weeds in front of him and walked over slowly.

Looking at the tombstone in front of him, Ye Feng stood quietly in place and was silent, just kept watching, watching.

To this day, every time he closes his eyes, the scenes of three years ago continue to appear in Ye Feng's mind, and he often wakes up in his sleep.

Three years ago, the Ye family was tragically destroyed, and dozens of people in the Ye Mansion were not spared, and they still don't know who did it, let alone the reason, they only know that the murderer is the soul of the ice and snow system, and the strength is extremely strong, even if it is Ye Ying's strength, there is no resistance at all, because in the entire Ye Mansion, there is no trace of fighting. But fortunately, Ye Feng was in the White Fire House at that time, so he escaped.

Afterwards, Bai Huo buried Ye Ying and Liu Feng on the top of this mountain, in Bai Huo's words, "Before Biyan, Ye Ying was also the defender of this Izumo City, one of the generals of the empire, he dedicated his life to Izumo City, without him, there may not be this city, for him except for his family, this Izumo City is all he has, and on the top of this mountain, you can see the entire Izumo City, I think, he should like it here." ”

"It's been three years since then......"

Ye Feng walked to the tomb and sat cross-legged on the ground, and said softly to the tombstone in front of him, "Dad, I still remember that you told me that when I grow up, you will teach me swordsmanship, and I will definitely become an excellent person like my father in the future, and the child has grown up now......"

Ye Feng's nose suddenly became sore, tears rolled in his eyes unconsciously, but he couldn't say half a word when the words came to his mouth, choked and took a few deep breaths, and then forced a smile again.

"Mother, you used to always let me eat more, and said that I didn't grow tall, I always loved to touch my head, of course I didn't grow tall, but the pastries you made were really delicious, I remember one time, Xue'er cried greedily, and she ate it all, and then she came to rob me of food, mother......"

Ye Feng held back his tears, took a few deep breaths, and was about to speak, when the words stuck in his mouth again, he really couldn't pretend anymore, he was only thirteen years old, why should he bear so much......

Tears flowed down like a flood that burst the embankment, in the past three years, he has never cried so heartbreakingly, never showed any emotion in front of others, even in front of the white fire and white snow, he just pretended to smile, he was unwilling to show his vulnerable side in front of others, let alone talk to people, all the pain and despair in the past three years have been suppressed in his heart, and now, he finally can't suppress it.

I don't know how long it took, Ye Feng suddenly fainted on the ground, and when he woke up again, it was already after midnight, and from the top of the mountain, the entire Izumo City was already dimly lit.

After crying bitterly, his eyes were slightly uncomfortable, and Ye Feng stood up slowly.

"Is it so late?"

Ye Feng turned around and walked down the mountain, there was still a constant sound of insects on the road, but what was even more noticeable was that there was a gust of wind blowing through the grass, because there was no wind at all now......

Ye Feng looked around, his heartbeat began to speed up, although he knew that the back mountain was dangerous at night, but he wouldn't really encounter any beasts, right?

Ye Feng continued to urge the soul qi in his body, and the netherworld in his hand gradually condensed and formed.

"Rustling ......"

Ye Feng suddenly turned to look at the grass behind him, staring at the movement there.

Under the light of the moon, a pair of eyes glowing with red light appeared in Ye Feng's field of vision.

"It's ......"

Ye Feng looked in horror at a few feet away from him, a one-horned lion tiger beast was slowly walking towards him.

Ye Feng subconsciously took a few steps back, looking at the lion tiger beast that was several times his size, Ye Feng couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart, "......"

"What should I do, I can't beat it, can I win......

Ye Feng swallowed his saliva and slowly stepped back.

"Roar ......"

There was a loud roar, so frightened that Ye Feng's legs began to tremble.

"Save! Life! Yes! ”

Ye Feng put away the spirit equipment and turned around and ran, and at the same time did not forget to shout for help.

As soon as Ye Feng's front feet stepped together, the liger beast behind him chased after him violently, and the two legs couldn't run more than four legs, and before he ran far, the liger beast had already reached Ye Feng's back, just raised his claws and patted it, and Ye Feng flew a few meters away.

"It hurts."

Ye Feng staggered to his feet and continued to run with his life, but the result was still the same, the lion and tiger beast chased after him in just a few seconds, and then slapped Ye Feng directly to the stone wall on the left.

Ye Feng struggled to get up, and was slapped twice in succession, his body was really a little unbearable, and his throat was sweet and a mouthful of blood spit out.

"How can there be a lion and tiger beast in this back mountain, isn't this thing supposed to live in Tianmai Mountain......

I still remember hearing that the demon hunters of Izumo City organized a group to go to Tianmai Mountain to encircle and suppress monsters, but as soon as they entered the mountain, they encountered the lion and tiger beast, a team of twelve people, and they were barely killed after one death and seven injuries.

Looking at the lion and tiger beast that was walking towards him step by step, Ye Feng was completely desperate, with his current strength, he had no chance of winning at all, and he couldn't run......

"Looks like I'm going to explain it here, so ......"

Ye Feng leaned against the stone wall and smiled helplessly, at this time he was already in despair. At this time, in this kind of place, there should be no one to save themselves.

Seeing that the lion and tiger beast was getting closer and closer to him, Ye Feng not only did not panic, but also imagined the scene of being eaten, whether it bit his head or his arm first, but looking at this big head, it seemed that there was no problem in swallowing himself in one bite......

Soon, a bloody mouth appeared in front of Ye Feng.

"This bite should hurt for a while."

Ye Feng slowly closed his eyes.

However, in the next second, a dull sound of falling to the ground suddenly sounded in my ears.

Ye Feng slowly opened his eyes, only to see that the lion and tiger beast had been killed on the spot, and a three-finger-wide blood hole on his head was still bubbling blood, looking to the right, a dark red long sword was embedded in the stone wall, but then it also turned into a wisp of black soul qi and dissipated.

Looking at the lion and tiger beast that fell in front of him, Ye Feng gasped, what kind of person is it, how did he appear in such a place, and he actually killed this lion and tiger beast with one blow!

Ye Feng looked to the left, "This sword should have flown from here." ”

However, the light was too dark at night to see anything clearly, and after a while, I saw a man in a black robe walking out of the forest.

But before Ye Feng could open his mouth to thank him, the black-robed man said: "It's almost dawn, what are you doing in such a place for a little child, if I hadn't heard you shout for help just now, I'm afraid you would have become a delicacy in the belly of this beast." ”

"Well, for all kinds ......of reasons," Ye Feng whispered, "Anyway, thank you seniors for saving me." ”

"Where is home, do you want me to send you back?"

"It's in the city down the mountain, and I don't work for my predecessors." Ye Feng replied.

"City? Izumo Castle ......"

"Senpai knows?"

The black-robed man suddenly lowered his head and thought about something.

In addition to Izumo City, there is no second city in the whole world that is connected to Tianmai Mountain, and I began to pursue that thing from Zhongzhou, and after entering Tianmai Mountain, I have been chasing it here, but I didn't expect that I had actually entered the territory of the Liuyun Empire......

"This Izumo City is the northern city of the Liuyun Empire, and it is connected to Tianmai Mountain, the city should be heavily defended, and this mountain should also be regularly patrolled, how can there be lions and tigers."

The black-robed man muttered in a low voice.

"Senpai?"

Looking at the black-robed man in front of him, Ye Feng looked puzzled, "Thanks to the rescue of my predecessors, I don't know the name of my predecessors." ”

"Qiu... Lin ......" The black-robed man thought for a moment and then replied.

"Senior Qiu, junior Ye Feng, if you have the opportunity in the future, you will definitely repay the seniors for saving their lives." Ye Feng clenched his fists and thanked.

"There's no need to repay it, this place is dangerous now, you better go down the mountain as soon as possible."

With that, Qiu Lin turned around and prepared to leave.

However, at the moment when he was about to leave, he stopped again, and his eyes became sharp.

"Boy, hurry up and find a place to hide......"

Qiu Lin suddenly spoke.

“……”

Hearing Qiu Lin's speech so serious, Ye Feng looked confused, but he still ran to the grass next to him.

"I've been chasing you for months, but now I've sent it to the door by myself......" Qiu Lin said lightly.

The soul qi continued to gather in Qiu Lin's hand, and a dark red long sword gradually condensed and formed in his hand, and at the same time, wisps of black soul qi also seeped out from Qiu Lin's body......
