The morning glow is shining in the east, and the dawn is gradually emerging.

At dawn, the giant eagle carried the two to the Yokobi Mountains.

The clouds and mountains are stacked, and the forests and seas are vast.

A series of reckless mountains running north-south, the top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, the mountains are continuous, and the mountains are densely forested.

Hengbi Mountains, the boundary mountain between the East Yu Kingdom and the West Yu Kingdom, are named because they lie across the earth like a huge wall.

The Yokobi mountain range is high and the road is dangerous, it is difficult to climb over, only there is a mountain pass in the middle section, which is about 70 miles long, and it is said that the wind of the mountain pass is as sharp as a knife blade, so it is called "the wind blade mountain pass".

More than 500 years ago, the country of Dayu unified the eastern continent, with the Hengbi Mountains as the boundary, divided into the east and the west.

Later, the brothers of the Dayu Kingdom were divided, and the second prince Xia Wenzong was dissatisfied with the succession of his brother Xia Yanzong, and led an army of 300,000 through the Fengjian Pass and entered the west, claiming to be the king of Xiyu.

Xia Wenzong built a "Sword Blade Pass" in the Fengjian Mountain Pass, with this pass as the center, in the mountains on the north and south sides, built twelve Xiongguan, known as the Twelve Liancheng, to defend against the attack of the Dongyu Kingdom.

Since then, the country of Dayu has been completely divided, the country of East Yu and the country of West Yu stand side by side, for two hundred years, each is called orthodox, conquest of each other, and then failed to unify.

In the past 100 years, due to the huge threat of the northern Cangyan country, the east and west Eryu had no choice but to form an alliance to resist the northern Yan.

Today, this ancient mountain range welcomes three visitors from East Los Angeles.

The giant eagle landed in a flat, open meadow area.

"That's fast."

Zhang Yanqi unloaded the pig mole cricket.

Purple Night is afraid of the sun, and has held up the Night Demon umbrella.

The giant eagle had a surprisingly good attitude, and said to the two with a smile: "Just do your business, no matter how long it takes, I will be here to wait." If you want to return, call me. ”

"It's hard to work hard, big brother." Zhang Yanqi hugged his fists.

Zi Ye made a disdainful expression towards Cang Er, "It's different if you take the money, big money fan!" ”

The Yokobi Mountains are the hometown of pig mole crickets, and I don't know how Mo got them empty-handed. Mo is dead empty-handed, and this will always be a mystery.

The two of them sent the pig mole crickets deep into the meadow at the foot of the mountain. The pig mole cricket opens its mouth into the distance.

Zhang Yanqi said curiously: "What is it doing?" ”

Purple Night replied, "Call your kind." ”

"Why can't I hear me?"

"It's a sound wave that humans can't hear."

The ground shook, the dust was flying, and a dozen large mole crickets emerged from the ground.

"Its family is here!" Purple Night clapped her hands.

This said goodbye to the pig mole cricket, and Zhang Yanqi waved goodbye.

"Brother Mole Cricket, goodbye."

The pig mole cricket looked at the two, seemed to be very grateful and reluctant, and suddenly turned his head, bit off one of its two tail whiskers, and handed it to Zhang Yanqi.

"What does it mean?" Zhang Yanqi was at a loss.

"It appreciates you, it's a gift for you, take it." Purple Night looked at him.

After accepting the half of the whiskers, the pig mole cricket and his family went away.

Zhang Yanqi asked Ziye: "What is this?" ”

Zi Ye smiled: "This is the insect flute, don't look at the pig mole cricket looks simple, it is the king of the earth insect world." With this bug flute, you can drive away the worms. ”

Ground insects are insects that have no wings, cannot fly, and can only crawl.

Then Ziye asked Xiao Qi to give it a try. Zhang Yanqi played the insect flute hard, but he couldn't make any sound.

"Why can't you blow it?"

"You can't hear it, but the bugs can."

After a while, there were insects that kept appearing, four-legged, eight-legged, sixteen-legged, innumerable-legged, and legless, grasshoppers, praying mantises, spiders, centipedes, etc., etc., and for a while, the mountains were full of insects.

In the distance, I heard the cry of the giant eagle's blue ears, "Mom, there are so many bugs!" ”

Zhang Yanqi had never seen so many insects, and he had goosebumps all over his body.

Zi Ye waved his hand at the insects around him, "It's okay, just try the flute, let's disperse." ”

Soon, the insects were gone.

Zhang Yanqi put away the insect flute and was about to return by eagle.

"You're just coming here and leaving, do you think I'm just asking you to deliver the pig mole crickets? No, there are more important things to do. Zi Ye said suddenly.

"What's the matter?"

"Let me ask you, after entering the Jinxiang Mansion, do you think you can come out alive?"

"I don't know."

"Those demon generals are very powerful, and if you go in, you will die for life, so now you have to improve yourself."

"Elevate what?

"Improve martial arts. At this moment, you have the right time, the right place, and the right state of mind, and it's the right time. ”

Zhang Yanqi hesitated suddenly, "Won't it be another miracle." ”

Ziye smiled and stretched out three fingers.

"Three days, it only takes three days, I want you to become a first-class master."

"You taught me that waste only needs to be brainless and reckless, and sacrifice oneself to produce miracles." Zhang Yanqi said immediately.

"No," Zi Ye waved his hand, "Vigorously produce miracles, that kind of thing is just opportunistic, not a real skill, once you meet a master, it is not an opponent at all." ”

"I'm talking about really good martial arts."

Zhang Yanqi hesitated again, "But I'm a waste, I'm only brainless, real martial arts, where can I practice, I'm too stupid, I can't even practice the Beidou Xian Xingjian." ”

"How stupid do you think you are?" Purple Night asked him rhetorically.

Zhang Yanqi walked a few steps, looked around the vast grassland, and suddenly felt a sour feeling in his heart, he sighed, and replied in disappointment:

"I don't know, but I'm a piece of rubbish. In the past six months, I have opened my eyes and become more and more aware of my limitations and insignificance, and I know that I am not the center of the world at all. Martial arts are difficult to practice, there are too many masters, the world is complicated, life is unpredictable, and I am just an ordinary ordinary person among all living beings. ”

Ziye smiled.

"If you can say that, it just shows that you are not a waste. Demon Venerable, know yourself humbly, this is precisely your advantage. ”

When he was in the Demon Realm, the Blood Flame Demon Venerable was like this, he never underestimated his opponents, and every opponent, he went all out.

Zhang Yanqi smiled bitterly: "What kind of advantage is this......

Zi Ye pressed his hand on his chest, and the beautiful purple eyes stared at him, and asked very solemnly:

"I want to hear the truth. You feel your conscience and tell me, what kind of person do you really want to be? ”

Obviously, she was touching Zhang Yanqi's heart, Yan Qi's face was hot, and the deer in her heart was bumping, seeing that Ziye was so solemn, she gathered her mind and tried to think.

"What kind of person do I want to be? I, I ............"

The more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and the more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and I couldn't help but avoid Ziye's eyes, and I couldn't answer for a long time.

He never seriously and formally thought about it.

What kind of person do I want to be?

It's not his alone, it's the trouble of all teenagers. Youth is full of uncertainty, life is always impermanent, fate is always elusive, who can see what their future looks like? Who knows what kind of person the future will become?

There was a bitterness in his heart, although he often said that he wanted to be a chivalrous man, but he didn't dare to hope for it from the bottom of his heart. Because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do it, although he had demon blood and the power of the Blood Flame Demon Venerable, it was not his.

In essence, he is just a mediocre person, with mediocre qualifications, mediocre luck, mediocre family background, mediocre connections, and even mediocre efforts............

Look at him shaking his head for a while, sighing for a while, only meditating, not answering.

Purple Night said to him:

"We read, practice, explore, and understand the world, not to respond to the needs of the world, but to know first of all whether the world is worth our efforts and whether it is worth our full effort. Those who have figured out the more basic issues are the masters of the world. ”

"Whether you are a demon venerable or Zhang Yanqi, you should reject the mediocre setting, refuse to be placed in life, refuse to be bound by hypocritical morality, refuse to be recognized by others, you must have independent and free thoughts, and you must have the courage to 'be yourself'."

"I want that thought in the deepest part of your heart."

"Answer me, what kind of person do you want to be?"

He buried a spark deep in his heart, and Ziye's words ignited the spark, and the spark of the stars turned into a burning flame.

After a long time, his eyes sparkled, and at last he mustered up the courage and replied:

"I want to ...... Become a hero. ”

"Heroes? Why be a hero? ”

"I don't know."

"What kind of hero do you become?"

"I don't know."

"What do you want to do when you become a hero?"

"I don't know.

"Haha, that's great!"

Ziye actually clapped her hands and laughed.

"The self you can't understand now is the one you really want to be."

Zi Ye pulled Xiao Qi to run up a hillside, and looked into the distance, the vast grassland, the towering mountains, the soaring clouds, and a sense of pride arose.

With a wave of the sleeves of the purple night robe, he said proudly:

"The husband is standing in the world, and he is angry. A man can have no money, no woman, no fame, no status, nothing but no grandeur! ”

These words, naturally, were said to her by the Blood Flame Demon Venerable when she was in the Demon Realm, and at this moment she said back to the Blood Flame Demon Venerable-Zhang Yanqi.

"A strong man can defeat a thousand armies, and one breath can give birth to all things. This qi is the qi of heroes, although Cao Bing and Ding Feng are powerful in martial arts, they lack this qi, and you ......"

"You have this breath in you." Ziye pointed at Zhang Yanqi's nose.

"But the courage can't fight, what's the use?"

Zhang Yanqi was still puzzled.

Ziye's fingers shook slightly, "People who can fight don't necessarily have strength, only those who dare to surpass themselves have real strength." The future is undecided, you and I are dark horses! ”

"The future is undecided, you and I are dark horses!"

In fact, when Ziye said these words, she was giving Zhang Yanqi confidence, how could a person who didn't even have self-confidence become a master.

Zhang Yanqi has demon blood in his body, and he has the power of the Blood Flame Demon Venerable in his body, but he can't use it.

Purple Night was waking him up little by little.

Zhang Yanqi gradually gained confidence and asked, "Xiaoye, what martial arts are you going to teach me?" ”

"I didn't teach." Purple Night shook her head.

"If you don't teach, who does?"

Purple Night pointed to the sky, "The one who brought us here." ”

"Ah, Brother Cang'er!"

Giant Eagle Cang'er, what kind of martial arts will he have?
