Chapter 1: The Flying Man
A long, long time ago, on the day of the birth of the world, a number of mysterious words were born in the universe that recorded all the secrets of this world, and after trillions of years of evolution, these words were finally formed into a book. The name of the book is unknown to anyone, and because the book has a history older than any life, it has formed its own spirituality in the process of evolution. According to legend, as long as you understand the true meaning contained in the Chinese characters of the book, you can obtain supreme energy. However, only the owner of the book can see the words in it, and all others see is a blank space where there is nothing.
I don't know how long it has been, maybe it's hundreds of years, maybe it's tens of thousands of years, maybe it's even longer trillions of years. Today's world has undergone earth-shaking changes since the birth of heaven and earth, and all kinds of strange life forms have appeared in the originally lifeless heaven and earth, and the flat and vast earth has also changed into different shapes under the action of several great changes, with towering and steep mountains and long and narrow canyons. The lake, which was originally just a stagnant water, has also been cut into one strange-shaped river after another in the amazing energy between heaven and earth. The rivers come in different shapes, like creatures of different shapes lying on the earthy yellow earth, each with a piece of territory that belongs only to them. However, these seemingly living rivers seem to be as lovely as spirits, and they also have their place of communication. The sea, a huge lake with a radius of trillions of miles and no end in sight, is the meeting place of these rivers.
In the beginning, the sea was the most dynamic area in the whole world, and from time to time you would see the sea dancing in the wind because of the coming breeze, and when the seabirds came to the surface of the sea, the sea would also use its unique wave way to greet this strange life form warmly, and every time it would hear the seabirds enthusiastically respond to its chirp. However, one day the warm sea suddenly became grumpy, not only did it no longer treat the tributaries of various places gently, but even began to attack the seabirds with monstrous waves up to thousands of meters high.
It turned out that the sea was angry when it realized that it was no longer the center of the world, because not long ago, the vast earth gave birth to the most advanced life form since the birth of the world, the human race, and it was precisely because of the appearance of human beings that the sea roared angrily. In order to appease the dissatisfaction of the sea, the gods had to make an exception to suppress it in the Nether. Since then, the blue sky and the boundless sea have their own masters on that day, but the mysterious ancient book legend that records the secrets of the universe has gradually been forgotten by this world.
It wasn't until one day 1 million years later, after an unknown human being suddenly rose in the human world after obtaining this book by chance, and became a hero that everyone admired and his enemies feared, that the book he left behind when he left the human world once again became the focus of all races in the world, and human beings called it "Heavenly Book". Other beings refer to it as the Nameless Scroll.
Now, another 1 million years have passed, and in these 1 million years, heroes have been born in various parts of the world that have risen and fallen one after another, and because of the existence of this book, there have been wars that have lasted for a full 1 million years. It wasn't until 10,000 years ago that the million-year-long war between humans finally came to an end after the sudden disappearance of a mysterious figure who had obtained the Nameless Scroll, but the competition for the Nameless Scroll has never stopped. Thus, a war without gunpowder began quietly......
In the year 927 of the Lanfa calendar, on the streets of a certain country and a city, there was a special group of people among the crowded crowds. There were 12 of them, 10 of whom were eight feet long, wearing sunglasses and black suits, and each pair of leather shoes looked like they had just been waxed. In front of these 10 people walked two men and women who were more than ten years apart. The woman is about 16 years old, delicate and graceful, and a pink dress with a pair of snow-white high heels sets off her age even younger. The man walking beside her was much older than the girl, and although he was also dressed in a suit, the obvious wrinkles on his forehead and his half-gray hair could not hide his age. Pedestrians saw the team of 12 people, all took the initiative to make way for it, the look was extremely respectful, when the team walked in front of them, the pedestrians on both sides also took the initiative to bow down to say goodbye, the old man next to the girl responded with a smile with satisfaction, but the look of the girl next to him was very disdainful.
"Grandpa Hoffman, how many times have I told you, I've grown up! You don't need to bring so many bodyguards when you go out, why do you let them come with you?" The girl suddenly stopped, turned her head and stared at the old man with a slight frown, stretched out a finger as delicate as a green onion, pointed to the ten straight men standing and said angrily: "I even have to have so many people to follow me when I go out to see my fiancé, how can you let me meet people in the future?"
......The old man named Hoffman smiled awkwardly twice, and then replied lightly: "Miss, I'm not thinking about your safety! You are already so old and so beautiful, how can I, Hoffman, as your housekeeper, rest assured that you can go out alone? The master told me a thousand times that I must ensure the safety of the young lady, and I can't go against the master's will!"
"But......" The girl still wanted to complain, but she saw Hoffman's embarrassed look and finally chose to compromise, sighed weakly, and showed an aggrieved expression, "Okay." But Grandpa Hoffman, you really don't have to worry so much about me, you see that the pedestrians around you all know this eldest lady of my Oak family, who would dare to offend me in our Oak family's territory?"
"This ......" Hoffman seemed to have noticed the girl's thoughts, and looked at the girl with some hesitation.
The girl put on a pitiful look, looked at the old man blankly with her big watery eyes, gently pulled the tie on Hoffman's chest, and said with some pleading: "Grandpa Hoffman, I just want to secretly go and meet my handsome fiancé first." There won't be any problem, it's too much of an eyesore for you to bring so many people, and I will never embarrass you, just let them go back, as long as you follow me, then my dad won't have anything to say?",
This time, Hoffman did not rush to answer, but looked at the girl silently without saying a word, and he was calculating in his heart whether the girl should agree to her just now. The girl's expression was now clear in his eyes, first a pleading face, and then a pleading look turned into a dead despair, and Hoffman was the last to see this expression. After thinking about it for a while, he finally nodded slowly, "Okay." But let's not take it as an example!"
"Yes, I know that Grandpa Hoffmann is the best! Hooray!" The girl jumped unscrupulously on the street excitedly, looking extremely lively, attracting many onlookers around, but none of these pedestrians dared to make fun of the girl, and no one dared to take the initiative to talk to the girl, because they all knew that the girl in front of them was a high branch that they never wanted to climb in their lives, and that was the daughter of the Oak family.
However, just as the girl was cheering and jumping happily like a rabbit in front of Hoffman, a young man dressed in a cyan Taoist robe came in front of her, this person was seven feet long, with long black hair tied on the top of his head, and a jade hairpin inserted in his black hair.
The young man's eyes were slightly closed, and he walked calmly in front of the girl, and his light walking made the passers-by around him and the 12 people in front of him secretly amazed, this person did not seem to be walking at all, but seemed to be floating, and he walked without opening his eyes, which was really strange. The same doubts arose in everyone's hearts except the young people, but no one noticed the speed at which the young people walked, in fact, very fast, but they did not see it.
The girl was the first to discover the extraordinary walking of young people, but she was also the first to remember who she was. A commoner dressed as a Taoist priest dared to stand in the way of the young lady of her Oak family, the girl frowned, glared at the young man who was walking towards her with some anger, and said in an unkind tone: "Hey! You are in my way!"
There was silence, and the young man walked straight to the girl as if he had not heard the girl's words at all, as if he had no intention of stopping.
"Hey, hey, hey!! I said you blocked me......" The girl who was suffocated by the young man's rude behavior was about to get angry at the young man, but found that the young man had come to her without knowing when, and the other party still closed his eyes slightly, and for the first time observed the face of a young man so closely, the girl's face flushed slightly, because she found that the other party's face was so handsome. But just as the girl was intoxicated by the young man's handsome appearance, she suddenly saw the young man's forehead slightly tilted, and his body turned 180 degrees sharply, and then the girl didn't understand what was going on, so she felt a strong force push her body back, and she fell down on her back, falling to the ground and complaining that a lady should not have.
"Damn, dare to hit our eldest lady!"
"Who the hell is this guy? Don't you want to live? To offend the Oak family, who shouldn't be offended the most!"
"How do I know about Lu Dao? You see he keeps his eyes closed, and I think he's blind. ”
The moment the girl fell, the onlookers on both sides immediately began to discuss, and the noisy discussion suddenly filled the street. The girl was very angry with the young man who bumped into her, she clenched her silver teeth fiercely, and just wanted to tell the butler Hoffman beside her to help her up, but when she turned her head, she was surprised to find that the gray-haired Hoffman and her ten bodyguards had fallen to the ground like her.
"You...... You...... You ......" has grown so big, the first time to make a fool of herself, and it is still in public, the girl's little face is already red with anger, she pointed to the back of the young man in front of her for a long time and couldn't say a complete word, but in her mind, she had already scolded this man who dared to humiliate herself more than 1,800 times.
The girl was about to stand up and curse at the man who dared to be disrespectful to her, but she heard a clear voice coming from the young man's mouth.
"I'm sorry, girl! I will apologize for bumping into you, I will apologize when I have the opportunity in the future, if there is something in the future, I will miss the company first, and there will be a period later!" As soon as these words fell, the young man kicked lightly, and his body jumped into the air dozens of meters high, and then he flew away indifferently in front of everyone's eyes and everyone's stunned eyes. The figure turned into a meteor that streaked across the sky, and it flashed away.
The girl stared blankly at the place where the young man had stayed in mid-air just now, without saying a word, but her heart was already stunned by this scene beyond her comprehension, and her mind was full of the scene of the young man flying in the air before leaving, and the expressions on the faces of the surrounding onlookers at this time were also the same as the girl, and no one dared to speak out again to talk about the fool who was just a fool who did not know the height of the sky in their eyes just now.
Suddenly, after a moment of silence, a hoarse voice came out from behind the girl, "Fly...... Flying man !!", Hofmann, who had been in a daze for a long time in the direction where the figure disappeared in the distant sky, trembled suddenly, as if he suddenly remembered some ancient legend, and pointed to the figure that had turned into a point of light and shouted in disbelief.
