"Boy, do you know the rules of our Star Pupil Heavenly Eye?"

"Yes!"

"Oh, heh, there are not many people, but there are a lot of people who know, let's hear about it. ”

"Take people for souls, pay for life with blood, chase the source of poverty, and give all the rare things. The loud voice was milky and milky.

"Hehe, people are small, but they are little ghosts. And what do you want from me, or what treasure can you offer me?"

A seven-year-old boy, holding in both hands, nay, dragging a sword three feet and three inches long, struggled towards the Tianyan table, which was made of willow wood, half a man high, round on the outside, but hollow on the inside.

The rule is to jump into the Tianyan table with treasures, once people are willing to jump in, there will be a mechanism lock to hold it, the mechanism that catches the hands and feet is composed of two semi-circular black metal sheets, straight and free, like a human hand, can be tough as a stone, invulnerable, oil poison inviolable. If there is a struggle, the round Tianyan Table will immediately fly around and shoot poisoned arrows from all angles, and you can immediately cry for your life. Of course, if you really want to deliver the goods, you can naturally come out unharmed, but once you enter the Tianyan table, there is no room for regret, this is the rule of Xingtong Tianyan.

The Star Pupil Sky Eye is a pawnshop in Jinling City.

It is rumored that this place is only open at midnight, and on the tenth and fifteenth days of the first month, it takes people's money and asks for their lives. This soul is not the soul of the dead, but the precious life of the living, in addition to helping people kill people and collect money, there is also a book, that is, no matter how far away, how difficult to find people and things, as long as a breath remains, you can recover it for you, not only chasing people and things, it is said that even the memory of people lost, as long as you pledge your most precious thing, is what the shopkeeper likes, it can also be replaced like a dream to wake up.

Star pupil eye of the sky, there are many rumors in ancient times, there should be many people, but the direct transaction with people is the shopkeeper is also the owner of the eye of the sky, passed down from generation to generation, or male or female, many people have never seen what the shopkeeper's face looks like in their lives, just because he talks to people, all through layers of veils. It is said that once he saw his true face, he was not far from death.

"Well, tell me what you've brought, and I'll let you know if I'm really interested. Behind the curtain, the man looked at the doll's struggle, waved his hand, and signaled that he didn't need to enter the Tianyan table.

The boy put the long sword on the ground with both hands, his little face was flushed, and the beads of sweat on his forehead ran down his cheeks, or flowed into his neck, or dripped to the ground, but he didn't care at all, and he didn't even wipe it, and his small body swayed back and forth twice, as if he was tired! He rested for a moment, bent down and removed the cloth pocket on the outside of the long sword, revealing a brown scabbard.

The man behind the curtain seemed to turn around, and was silent for a moment, a pair of eyes, almost staring out of the hole in the not thick veil.

"This is your sword. ”

"No, my enemy's sword. I want you to help me find out my origins, I want you to help me kill my enemies and avenge my parents. ”

In the apricot-colored curtain, the figure seemed to be stunned, but it returned to normal in a moment. A low, hoarse voice like thunder slowly flowed out.

"You're two things, but you're offering a treasure, and it's not fair to me, boy, do you have anything else to exchange?"

A seven-year-old child raised his eyes and stared at the silk thread hanging from the beam of his room, and there were small bags hanging at the bottom of the house. Legend has it that the owner of this star-pupil Tianyan is bloodthirsty, and he is very excited when he sees blood, so if there is really no treasure to exchange, as long as a part of your body is left in the pawnshop, the transaction can still be done, and he doesn't want much, and the bag must be either a bloody thing such as fingers or ears.

The child's pupils tightened instantly, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he staggered forward a few steps and said, "I'm willing to hand you a finger, I don't know if it's enough?"

"Hahaha, if you have the guts, leave the sword first, I will ask someone to help you find out your enemy, three days later, you come again, after the name of your enemy is handed over to you, if you still decide to let us help you take revenge, I will take it upon myself to remove your finger, how about it?"

The little doll with a table and chair puffed out her cheeks and thought for a moment, and the grandmother replied: "A word is a certainty." Then he turned and went away,

"Wait, you have something in your body that I need right now, why don't you trade it today, deliver the true qi in your body to me, and help me avenge your revenge, how about it?"

"What kind of real anger?ah~" Before the seven-year-old child had completely turned his body, the man behind the curtain crossed the Tianyan table, and the palm wind whistled and slapped him on the back. The small body curled up, and there seemed to be a strong light flashing above his head, and the shopkeeper struck with both palms, and a pair of eyes as deep as the dead spirit of the underworld, but it seemed to be fixed on the child, and the child fainted.

The sun has gone down, but the west is bright and happy, wisps of dark clouds like fairy mountains hanging in the sky, looming, the peaks are undulating, golden and red like oranges. A young man, leaning against a hundred-year-old apricot tree, leaned forward, his feet on a very thick branch, his arms crossed in front of his chest, sleeping. In order to prevent himself from falling, he also carefully tied his waist firmly to the trunk with a rope, his eyes were closed at the moment, his eyebrows were slightly frowning like a sword, and his white face showed some displeasure, and it could even be said that he was hideous, and his chest fell together, and then a whisper floated out of his mouth, muttering as if he was shouting: "Help me, help, Daddy, don't leave me." ”

Suddenly, his body shook, his eyes opened, and he woke up. His face was slightly flushed, his breathing fluctuated several times, his upper body rose slightly, he stretched out a hand and rubbed the back of his head that he accidentally hit because of the horror in his dream, and turned his body to look over the field, "It's almost night." ”

He suddenly remembered the words of the man who saved him: "In a person's life, there are always many forks in the road, some leading to the Pure Land of Bliss, and some leading to purgatory on earth, but often when people make choices, they cry and grieve, and they can't see what the end of the road is. One day, time has passed, and the ending will naturally emerge. Therefore, there is no need to worry too much about the past, and after the water is completed, everything will naturally disappear. ”

It was his dream, but it was also his experience.

At the age of five, his parents died tragically, he experienced it himself, but he couldn't remember the appearance of his enemy, and he lived on Sanssouci Island for 17 years. When he was seven years old, the merchant ships on the island from north to south anchored and fetched water for food, so he sneaked into the bilge and went to Jinling. Originally, it was to ask the owner of the Star Pupil Tianyan to tell him about his life experience and avenge his parents, but he almost died, and after being rescued, he didn't even remember a corner of his benefactor's clothes, but these words were still in his ears.

He was seven years old at the time, and it was when his memories first opened, but he couldn't remember anything except fragmentary dreams in the past ten years, which was really strange!
