In the early morning, a damp mist covers the land, and turquoise peaks surround this small mountain village.

The mountain village is small in size and has dozens of households, and the roof rubble is covered with thick moss.

The village has a long history, and these villagers have lived here for generations.

The world is silent, there is a touch of red glow on the horizon, the mountain village has not yet woken up, the street is very silent, the silence is only the song of insects and birds.

With the loud crow of a rooster, the chickens and ducks of each family woke up one after another.

The roosters and ducks suddenly filled the mountain village, and the sound was like an alarm clock that made the people in the mountain village gradually wake up, and the oil lamps were lit in every room.

Liu Yi lazily opened his eyes, lifted the futon, and he slept sweetly, and was having a sweet dream, but it was broken by the rooster crowing at home.

When he looked up and saw that it was still slightly bright outside, he opened his mouth and yawned to get another sleep.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and Liu Yi's mother walked in.

Mother Liu walked to the side of the bed, looked at Liu Yi's sleepy eyes, and said, "It's not ashamed to be twelve years old and still lie in bed."

Liu Yi rubbed his eyes in a daze, and his mouth responded: "Get up, get up immediately." ”

Mother Liu looked at Liu Yi and shook her head and said, "This kid," and then walked out.

Liu Yi got out of bed, picked up shorts on the bench next to the bed, put them on his legs, put on short-sleeved shoes and walked out of the bedroom door and came to the courtyard.

In the courtyard, Liu Yi's father, Liu Biao, was chopping firewood for today's breakfast, Liu Biao's arms were thick and powerful, and he swung the axe violently, and with a "click" sound, he split a piece of log, which was very crisp and neat.

He is a well-known hunter in the village, who has hunted many pests with his archery skills, and is also quite famous in several nearby villages.

Liu's mother walked from Liu Yi's room to the kitchen, and the stove was cooking in the kitchen.

After eating, Liu's mother cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, Liu Yi wiped his mouth and prepared to sneak out of the door to play with the friends in the village.

Today was a day off, and he didn't have to go to the old gentleman in the village to attend the lesson.

Seeing that his son was about to go out, he knew that this kid was ready to sneak out to play again, Liu Biao coughed and said to his son roughly: "You kid is going out to play again, right?" ”

Liu Yi smiled and stopped and said, "Father, today is a day off, and I have made an appointment with Zhenghao and them."

"Don't run far". As soon as Liu Biao finished speaking, Liu Yi smiled and ran away. Liu Biao underestimated: "This kid."

He stood up and prepared to pack his bags, he was going to Jijia Village, ten kilometers away, today.

Recently, the wild beasts there are very restless and often hurt the villagers, and the villagers are a little panicked, and basically do not dare to leave the village.

I heard that Liu Biao's hunting was very powerful, so I invited Liu Biao to control the beasts.

Mother Liu had already helped her husband pack up, and Mother Liu straightened Liu Biao's clothes and said, "Brother Biao, be careful all the way, don't let the beast hurt you." ”

Liu Biao smiled and said: "It's okay, I've been doing it for decades, don't all be safe, rest assured." He gave Liu Mu a reassuring look and strode out.

Liu Yi at the head of the village was frolicking with a few friends, they were teasing the puppy at the head of the village, Liu Yi took a bone left over from his kitchen, teasing the puppy and turning in circles, and several people laughed very happily.

Liu Biao came out of the house and walked to the head of the village, and at a glance, he saw his son teasing the dog there, and looked at the smile on the child's face, and he walked over.

Liu Yi saw that his father was wearing a dark brown half-sleeved shirt sewn by his mother, and his two sturdy shoulders were exposed to the dark muscles shining in the sun.

There is a cow tendon bow on his back, and a biao character is carved in the center of the bow handle, which is a bow that Liu Biao spent a lot of effort to find someone to make.

Made of the best wood by the best archers in town, it is not easy to make, and the quiver is full of feathered arrows.

When he saw his father with a bow and arrows, he knew that he was going out hunting again.

Liu Yi handed the bone to his little friend, he walked up to his father and asked, "Father is going out hunting again?"

Liu Biao nodded and said, "Well, the beasts in Jijia Village hurt people, and the villagers asked me to solve it." ”

Liu Yi is very clear about his father's work, and the adults in the village have also talked about Jijia Village in the past few days, and it is said that several people have been killed and injured, and it sounds like a wild beast.

He couldn't help but worry about his father, Liu Yi raised his head and said, "Father, you must be careful that the beast is very fierce and doesn't hurt you." ”

Liu Biao laughed and said: "You are as worried about your father as your mother, look at your father's sturdy body, how can he be afraid of those mountain and forest beasts." ”

After saying that, his arms bent upward, revealing his well-developed biceps muscles, showing off to his son.

Liu Yi looked at his father's sturdy arms and couldn't help but feel a little envious, and then looked at his thin arms, and he thought about whether he should also exercise.

Liu Biao looked at his son and bowed his head silently, thinking that he was still worried about him, touched his head and said, "Don't worry, dad will go first, pay attention to safety when you play by yourself, don't run too far to make your mother worry,"

Liu Yi looked at his father and said, "I know that my father walks slowly." ”

Liu Biao smiled and walked out of the village slowly, gradually moving away, because the mountain village is located in the middle of several mountains, so the road is tortuous and muddy on the mountain, and it is difficult to enter and exit, Liu Biao really has to walk for a while to go to Jijia Village.

Liu Yi returned to his friends and watched them frolic, and suddenly felt a little bored, there was nothing to play in the village.

He turned to his friends and asked, "Eh, do you have any fun stuff?"

A boy with a white and chubby figure took a small rattle in his hand and said, "Brother Yi, what do you think of me." As he spoke, he shook the wave drum and made a sound of "dang, dang, dang".

"Cut the iron pillar, you don't mean this, I told you that I heard from the adults that there is a cave deep in the woods on the mountain behind the village, and there was a strange noise in it a few days ago, and the adults were afraid that there were fierce beasts in it, so they didn't go to check it, do you want us to go on an adventure,"

The young man who spoke was wearing a pigtail, his eyes were rolling, and he was gesturing as he spoke, and two small tiger teeth were showing at the corners of his mouth, but his immature cheeks were really difficult to make a terrifying feeling.

After listening to this, Liu Yi's big eyes flashed with curiosity, and after thinking for a while, he decided to come down, and he said, "Okay, let's go to the cave that Wu Haowei said and have an adventure." ”

After all, several people were still young, and when the little friends saw Liu Yi taking the lead, they were no longer afraid, and said in unison: "Okay." ”

Liu Yi said again: "But you can't go blindly and directly, my father has to prepare enough weapons and tools before going out every time he goes out at work, and there are ways to defend himself in case of a wild beast, so we go back and prepare things to avoid danger." ”

Several teenagers admired Liu Yi's idea, because Liu Yi had always been the smartest among them, and as soon as Liu Yi said it, they echoed: "Brother Yi, how do you say we prepare." ”

Liu Yi said again: "Tiezhu, your family kills pigs and sells meat, take some pork as bait to meet fierce beasts to attract their attention, Haowei, you have a fire fold in your shop, take some to explore the way in the cave, Zhenghao takes some self-defense equipment in your blacksmith shop to defend yourself, I take some of my father's hunting ropes, as for Xiaofeng Xiaoyu, you two girls don't go, this thing is very dangerous." ”

After listening to this, the other boys also echoed and said: "Yes, yes," the girl Xiaofeng said to Xiaoyu with a cold snort of "hum": "Let's go and play by ourselves," After speaking, he took Xiaoyu's hand and walked away, Xiaoyu turned his head and smiled playfully at them and made a gesture of goodbye.

After the two walked away, Liu Yi touched his nose and said, "Let's go, let's go, let's go to the foot of the mountain behind the village." After saying that, they all went home and prepared to go.

Liu Biao walked for an hour and finally came to the entrance of Jijia Village, but the scene in front of him made him look frightened.

He only saw in his eyes that the originally peaceful Jijia Village had turned into a sea of fire at this moment, and the intact houses had been shattered by the flames.

There was a pungent smell of burnt paste in the air, and a charred corpse was placed at the entrance of the village right in front of Liu Biao's eyes.

The corpse's face was still full of horror, and a pair of eyes were about to burst out, as if they were dead and did not close, Liu Biao saw the corpse's eyes recover from shock.

He stretched his arm back and took out his bow, and with his right hand he put the arrow on the string and gently pulled it away, and his mind was extremely focused and entered a posture of vigilance.

Liu Biao lowered his body and walked forward cautiously, he looked around carefully to try to find the cause of this tragedy.

Judging from Liu Biao's years of hunting experience, this is not the result of a beast attack, there are no paw prints around, there are no bites and scratches on the corpse, and the beast will not set fire.

Liu Biao thought in his heart: "Who is so cruel?"

With questions, Liu Biao continued to go deeper into the village, he hoped to see a living person in the village at the moment and ask the reason.

All the way forward, the flames released by the continuously burning houses on both sides of the street hit Liu Biao's face directly, making the already hot weather even more uncomfortable.

On the street, people seemed to be running away, and the corpses were scattered everywhere, seeing such a scene, Liu Biao was a little desperate: "Is there anyone still alive?"

But there was still hope before he had walked through the whole village, and he walked to the middle of the village, where there was a big tree, which was originally vigorous and green, standing in the center, and was a good place for the old people in the village to relax and play with the children.

Now it is like a huge torch burning non-stop, Liu Yi stopped in front of the remnants of the big tree and felt uncomfortable.

Suddenly, in addition to the sound of the fire burning, a human voice came into Liu Biao's ears, and it seemed to be a miserable scream.

After seeing this tragedy, a little living voice was enough to lift his spirits, and another scream fell into his ears, and Liu Biao determined the direction at the end of the village.

He immediately rushed over, and in the process of going to the end of the village, he also raised his vigilance in case of any sudden danger, and his right hand clenched the longbow and was ready to deal with the danger, and the more he walked, the clearer the screams became.

Feeling that the voice was not far ahead, Liu Biao slowed down and carefully searched around, "In the house on the right!"

Determine the location Liu Biao quickened his pace and walked in, the door frame of the house was basically burned out, the door had fallen to the ground, Liu Biao carefully jumped over the door, and was about to shout who was there.

But he heard other voices coming from inside, "There is also a fish that slipped through the net, and Bingsan went to solve him,"

Liu Biao hurriedly closed his mouth and stopped, leaned on the corner of the wall and looked cautiously, only to see a person in the courtyard kneeling on the ground with his legs on the ground, his mouth letting out a heart-rending scream, and his thighs were bleeding.

Across from him stood several people dressed in black, one in the front and three behind, and the last three wearing black masks and white masks in the front.

One of the three people behind him stood up and said, "Yes," their voices were full of coldness and disgust, and the man with the white mask walked up to the villagers and stretched out his right hand.

There was a faint black gas in his hand, and it slowly stretched out to the throat of the villager The villager roared: "Don't kill me, I really don't know where the person you are talking about is!"

Liu Biao knew that he couldn't wait and see at this moment, he pinched the tail of the arrow with his right hand, pushed out the bow with his left hand, aimed at the man in black and shot an arrow, the speed of the arrow was as fast as a snake, and it was in front of the right hand of the man in black in the blink of an eye.

Although Liu Biao's arrow was fast, some people were faster, and the man in black who stood at the front didn't know when he stood next to the man in black, Liu Biao didn't see his movements clearly, as if he saw his hand stretched out, the arrow was sent away, and a cold voice under the white mask sounded, "Is there anyone else?"

After speaking, he quickly ran in the direction of Liu Biao, this person's figure was very strange, and he arrived in front of Liu Biao in the blink of an eye.

Liu Biao has heard of it, and there are many martial artists who practice in this world, and the body method is a technique to improve their speed.

In Liu Biao's eyes, the man in black was covered in black robes, only his face was exposed, but he was also wearing a pure white mask on his face, making it difficult to see the person's face.

Seeing that he had any starting posture, he rushed out a few meters and came to Liu Biao in an instant, Liu Biao couldn't be shocked, picked up the arrow and was about to stab forward.

He knew that this blow would inevitably miss from the perspective of the man in black, but with his years of hunting experience, he knew that there was no way to escape if he ran, and there was no other way but to fight hard.

The man in black raised his right hand casually, and the moment he raised his right hand, Liu Biao also saw clearly the outfit inside the man in black, wearing a black tights inside, and the whole body was pitch black, making the white mask more conspicuous.

The key is that his right hand is wrapped around this layer of clear black qi, and his hand easily pinched Liu Biao's right hand, and Liu Biao's right hand seemed to be cold and tingling as if it had touched cold ice.

The stinging pain made him loosen his hand, and the arrow fell to the ground, and the man in black stretched out his left hand and choked Liu Biao's throat, and actually lifted his eighty-kilogram body, weighing one meter and eight meters high, directly up.

Liu Biao's face turned red, and his left hand vigorously broke the five fingers of the man in black, but he didn't move.

The voice of the man in black sounded: "Bingsan, you solve that, let's go to the next village and continue to look for it, that old man will definitely not be able to run far,"

I saw that the man in black ordered the kneeling villagers in the courtyard to be directly twisted their necks by the man in black named Bingsan, Liu Biao's heart trembled violently when he heard the words of the man in black, and the village below was his own village.

As soon as he thought that his family was still there, a strong will suddenly made him muster up the strength of his whole body again, the muscles in his hands were swollen, and the green tendons were bursting, and he finally broke the fingers of the man in black.

The man in black sighed and wondered: "I still have the strength to struggle," Liu Biao spit out a few words intermittently in his mouth, "Leave... I... Target... Family... Person... Far... dot".

Liu Biao's eyes stared at the man in black, the man in black smiled disdainfully, twisted his left hand hard, Liu Biao's head tilted to the right, and his hands hung down weakly, still dying on his hands.

The man in black threw Liu Biao's body aside, and suddenly saw Liu Biao's fine bow at a glance, reached out and took the bow in his hand and muttered, "The weapon is not bad,"

Turning to the three men, he said, "Go down to the village and continue the search,"

After speaking, several people immediately walked out of this Jijia Village with a very fast body, this place that has now turned into a sea of fire, and took away Liu Biao's bow and arrow, the house continued to burn, and Liu Biao's body also turned into ashes with this village.
