Chapter 1: A Boy in a Mountain Village

Next Chapter

"It's too late, it's too soon. Meng Xun saw the white-haired sword immortal led by him standing eight hundred miles away, and with nine flying swords, he cut off the heads of the Evil Netherworld Sect Leader and many elders......"

In a tavern in Qunyang County, a middle-aged scholar is standing on a high platform to tell a story, and diners below are constantly applauding.

"Go, go, where did you come from, go and don't get in the way of business. The shopkeeper looked at the black-faced boy who was squatting at the door and gnawing on his nest head, his brows furrowed slightly, and when he saw that the diners who came to the door didn't care about the children, he nodded and greeted him. "Oh, Boss Wang's box has been reserved for you, please inside. At first, it didn't take a while. ”

Obviously, this Boss Wang who came to eat was also here for the middle-aged scholar who told the story.

"Nonsense, it's almost a joke!" the black-faced boy muttered, but the shouting in the inn was too loud, and Boss Wang's attention was focused on the storyteller and he didn't hear it.

However, the shopkeeper on the side heard it clearly, he glared at the black-faced boy, and after sending Boss Wang to the private room, he rolled up his sleeves and picked up the flat pole erected by the door and cut it at the black-faced boy's body. "You little rabbit, don't you make trouble sincerely, hurry up and get out of here, or I'll kill you with a flat shoulder. ”

Children in mountain villages are often poor but their bodies are very strong and they react quickly. The black-faced boy saw the shopkeeper and the two people rushing over with a flat pole, and immediately stood up, regardless of the numb and sore calves that had been squatting for a long time, he ran away, and recited words while running.

"Good thief, the speed is really fast, but it's still not as fast as this immortal!"

In the evening, smoke rose from the mountain village at the foot of Qinglin Mountain, and the black-faced boy held an emerald green bamboo pole in his hand, gesturing indiscriminately, and the dubbing continued in his mouth, and the battle was quite fierce.

Swords collided, horses' hooves rang out, and from time to time a sound popped out of his mouth.

If it was seen by the middle-aged scribe who told the story in the inn, his eyes would definitely light up, and he would accept the black-faced boy as a disciple.

It's just that if it's true, then it's going to disappoint the middle-aged scribe, because the black-faced boy doesn't want to tell the story, but wants to be the sword fairy in the book.

"Xunzi, Grandpa Meng asked you to go to the county seat to buy firewood, why haven't you come back until now? Are you running to listen to books again!" A child the size of a black-faced boy squatted on the big stone at the head of the village with a bowl of steaming chaos.

The black-faced boy swallowed his saliva secretly, and said with a straight expression: "Da Niu, don't call me by my nickname in the future, call me Meng Xun!" Hey, discuss things with you, Chaos will give me a bite, and when I grow up and worship the old fairy on the mountain as a teacher, I will also take you with me." ”

"Really?" Da Niu was suspicious, glanced at the straight bamboo pole in Meng Xun's hand, and then looked at the chaos in the bowl, which was already small, and gritted his teeth and said, "Plus the weapon in your hand, then I will give it to you." ”

Meng Xun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook his head and said loudly: "How can you give people with a sword casually, I haven't heard that Mr. Storyteller said that the sword is in the people, and the sword is destroyed." ”

"But it's not a sword, it's a bamboo pole, you don't want to give it to me, it's so stingy!" Da Niu jumped off the stone with a bowl, and was not interested in preparing to go home.

Meng Xun's is a tangle, this bamboo pole with sword is what he spent an afternoon in the bamboo forest to find, the best color and the most strong. I just smell the chaos, but it's really fragrant, and the meat is ironclad.

"Deal! My personal sword is on your side, you have to keep it for me, and when my house cooks chaos that day, I will change it back!" Meng Xun was a little reluctant, the bamboo pole had just been heated and had to be handed over, it was really sad.

But in sorrow, it can't resist the chaos with thin skin and many fillings.

Two teenagers, one eating chaos with a bowl, and the other playing a set of self-created mad demon swordsmanship, so unhappy.

Time flies, and ten years have passed in a blink of an eye.

Qingshan is still the same Qingshan, the black-faced boy who eats chaos in the sunset has become a teenager, but there is one figure missing.

Now, Meng Xun is sixteen years old, and when he was thirteen years old, he jumped up and down, and now he is more than eight feet, one foot taller than a seven-foot man, and he can be said to be the tallest man in the village.

It's just that this child has grown, and his body is still as slender as that of a child. There are no fat people in the mountain villages, people are a little affected, and they are still strong.

In the village, a coming-of-age ceremony is held when the child is 15 years old, and when the coming-of-age ceremony is completed, it means that he can officially go up to the mountain to hunt.

Although Meng Xun is young, his hunting skills are not weaker than the captain of Orion in the village.

When it was almost dark, Meng Xun went down the mountain, carrying a roe deer. The people in the same village who met were envious, a roe deer was enough for a family to eat a good meal, but roe deer is not easy to catch, especially in recent years, I don't know what happened The beasts on the mountain have become much more fierce and irritable.

The old people in the village said that in recent years, the village has gone into the mountains to hunt too many times, which has angered the mountain gods.

Therefore, many hunters who make a living from hunting are forced to do other jobs, and the Da Niu family is a famous family of hunters in the village, and their ancestors have lived by hunting for generations.

As a result, the Da Niu family had no choice but to move to the county seat to sit on a small business.

"Mom and Dad, I'm back!" Meng Xun walked to the yard and threw the roe deer on the ground, and the follow-up work was handed over to his parents.

Meng Xun has a family of four, his father is a woodcutter, his mother is raising silkworms and weaving cloth at home, and there is a sister who is four years younger than him.

"Brother, are you going to boxing again?" Meng Xun's younger sister, Meng Xiaomei, looks eight points similar to Meng Xun, and her eyebrows and eyes are also considered to be at the level of village flowers in the entire village. Fortunately, the raw white and pure is not as black as Meng Xun, otherwise this village flower will change hands.

Meng Xun moved his muscles, nodded and smiled.

Since Da Niu moved, Meng Xun's words have become less, because he is a playmate of Da Niu in the village, and other children have rejected him when they were young, thinking that he is an alternative, and Da Niu believes that he will become an immortal.

Usually going to the county, Meng Xun will go to Da Niu's house from time to time, sometimes he will bring a little game, and then mix a meal at Da Niu's house, don't secretly go to the martial arts hall opened in the county with Da Niu to steal learning.

This time and back, Meng Xun also learned some boxing, which made Da Niu envious.

But the good times didn't last long, and last year, Meng Xun went to steal school again and was almost discovered. Since then, there have been more thistles on the walls of the gym.

Meng Xun didn't feel strange because of this, anyway, he had almost learned it secretly, and he would also know how to teach the hall master. It's just that every time he goes to the county, he has to walk around in front of the gym a few times, this is not to steal a teacher, or want to go to the gym to learn art, and he doesn't have the spare money.

As long as it's to be able to take a look more, the daughter of the owner's family.

He heard from Da Niu that the daughter of the hall owner wanted Lin Youyou, with a very nice name and a good look. Many families in the county have come to the door to propose, but they have all been refused.

Even last year, the boxing gym held a martial arts competition to recruit relatives, and Meng Xun also went up, but was defeated by a teenager who practiced stick skills in the penultimate round.

But in the end, Lin Youyou still didn't get married, because no one could beat her.

This reassured Meng Xun a lot.

Just the day before yesterday, Meng Xun went to the county seat again, but this time it was not to see Lin Youyou, but to hear that the Cloud Cliff Sect on Qinglin Mountain was preparing to recruit apprentices, and he wanted to confirm it, and by the way, he went to register for a name.

Just seeing the high registration fee, Meng Xun was stumped.

It takes a full hundred taels of silver to sign up, and his family usually has more than one or two taels of silver left every year, and since he went to the mountains to hunt as an adult, he has some money left, but he made up all the pieces and found that he was still short of ten taels of silver.

"Meng Xun, do you have to go?" Now the big cow is really a big cow, although it is not as tall as Meng Xun, but it looks very strong.

Meng Xun nodded and did not speak. If he hadn't heard that Lin Youyou was going to the Cloud Cliff Sect, he might not have go, but Lin Youyou was going to the Cloud Cliff Sect, and this was a good opportunity.

Maybe he can still talk to Lin Youyou.

"Because of Lin Youyou?" Da Niu raised his head, he was Meng Xun's only friend, and Meng Fei was not his only friend?

When he came to the county seat, children of the same age looked down on him when he came out of the village, so he didn't have any playmates when he came to the county seat, so he helped his father with his work.

"Meng Xun, they all say I'm a nerd. In fact, I know that I am not smart, and you are the only one in the village who is willing to play with me. I treat you as a brother, so brother, I don't like to hear anything, don't be angry after you hear it. "It's the first time that Da Niu has said so many things at once, and it doesn't seem to be what he wants to say now, as if he said it after a long time of brewing.

"You say, I'll listen!" Meng Xun also lowered his head, and the atmosphere was unconsciously a lot more solemn.

"Meng Xun, it's not a brother, I look down on you, you and Lin Youyou are not all the way, whether it is family background or others. After Da Niu finished speaking, he pursed his lips, and secretly glanced at Meng Xun again, and found that Meng Xun was still a little relieved as usual.

Meng Xun slowly raised his head and stared at Da Niu and said, "Da Niu, can you give me a punch." ”

"Don't be kidding, just your punch and a wild boar can be killed!" Da Niu turned pale with fright, for fear that Meng Xun would really beat him up.

Meng Xun laughed, "I'm joking, look at it scares you!" and then turned into a serious face and said, "Da Niu, I have to go." It's not necessarily for Lin Youyou to go to the Cloud Cliff Sect. ”

"Da Niu, do you remember my dream when I was a child?"

"Then why don't you remember, you want to go to the mountain to worship an immortal as a teacher, it's just that what does this have to do with going to the Cloud Cliff Sect, and the Cloud Cliff Sect is not an immortal mountain gate!" Da Niu was a little curious.

Meng Xun shook his head and said: "I have inquired clearly in the past few days, the originator of the Yunya Sect is an old immortal, but I heard that the disciples of the old immortal have not been able to inherit his mantle, so they have become a sect in the rivers and lakes." ”

"So that's the case!" Da Niu smiled: "It's worthy of Meng Xun, his mind is better than mine!

Da Niu took it out of his arms for a long time, took out a money bag, and reluctantly handed it to Meng Xun. "Meng Xun, I don't want your sword this time, I just hope that you can worship under the Cloud Cliff Sect, and I, as a brother, will feel at ease. ”

Meng Xun took the money bag in a daze, and when he opened it, he saw that it was all some small pieces of silver, no more, no less, exactly ten taels. "Da Niu, where did you get so much money?"

"You don't care about this, I'm going back to the store, hurry up and sign up!"

Da Niu stood up, said goodbye to Meng Xun, and left in a hurry.

Meng Xun was left alone, standing in the sunset, looking at the money bag in his hand, and he was moved.

Back at home, at the dinner table, Meng Xun told his parents that he was going to go to the Cloud Cliff Sect to learn art, his parents were silent, and then looked at each other before saying, "This is a good thing, but this is ......"

Meng Xun knew what his parents were thinking about, "Mom and Dad, I've already solved the money matter, I'll sign up tomorrow." ”

"Brother, when are you going to Yunya Sect!" Meng Xiaomei was a little reluctant, since she was a child, her father was busy collecting firewood, and her mother was busy weaving cloth to buy household goods, so she didn't have time to take her at all, Meng Xun had always taken her.

Now that Meng Xun wants to go to the Cloud Cliff Sect to learn art, she must be reluctant.

Meng Xun couldn't help but wonder, "Why are you reluctant to me, don't worry, wait for me to go to the Cloud Cliff Sect, I will definitely come back often." ”

"Really?" Meng Xiaomei blinked and didn't believe it.

"When did my brother lie to you?"

"Retractor. ”

"Hanging on the hook for a hundred years is not allowed to change...... Stamp. ”

"Stamp!"

Meng's father and mother looked at Meng Xun and Meng Xiaomei, brother and sister, looked at each other and smiled, and then showed a faint sadness.
