Chapter 1 Yunshan Town

In the north of the Tang Dynasty, there is a town called Yunshande, the town is not big, relying on the foot of Yunshan, the scenery of Yunshan is beautiful, the strange flowers and plants are beautiful, the top of the mountain is full of clouds and mist all the year round, a hundred-year-old green pine on the top, which attracts the tourists of the surrounding county towns in an endless stream.

And Yunshan Town is relying on the convenience of tourists who come to Yunshan to travel, there are several inns in the town that make delicious meals, and the door number is not big. There is such an inn called "Green Bamboo Inn", which is named after the green bamboo planted around the inn.

On this day, a group of people came to Yunshan Town, the leader rode a black and brown horse, wearing a gorgeous costume, and a striking golden waist plate around his waist, which was engraved with the words "Beishan Mansion". But looking back, the two carriages are also delicate and ingenious, from the eight people who are guarding the carriage around the light steps, between breathing between the relaxation, although walking, but the speed is closely following the carriage unhurried, you can see. These eight are all first-class players. The carriage was followed by nearly 20 servants. However, he said that this group of people from Beishan Mansion inquired with the people in the town and knew that Qingzhu Inn was such a pleasant place, so the group drove there.

Came to the front of the Qingzhu Inn, there was a small house in front of the door, I saw this line of people from afar, the small guy was dressed in green clothes, and the color of the green bamboo around this complemented each other, and hurriedly ran over, and said with a smile: "The third son is good, the store has already arranged for the slaves to wait in advance, your private room is ready for the past, you come to watch the green bamboo in the early spring of every year, and the store has specially prepared some fresh green bamboo shoots for you this year." You slow down ......". The little guy was talking, the man in white on the horse was about to get off the horse, the little guy hurried over to think about helping, who knew that just to help, the eight people around the carriage suddenly "hummed", the handle of the knife suddenly out of the sheath, the knife flashed. The little guy was startled, and hurriedly shrank back, but his hand was ready to support the man in white, and he didn't know what to do.

I saw that the man in white, with his head slightly sideways, waved his hand casually, and the eight good hands immediately put their knives into their sheaths, and their murderous aura disappeared. The little guy hurriedly lowered his head, and entered the Qingzhu Inn with the man in white in both hands.

In the afternoon, the early spring sun shines on the green bamboo of the Qingzhu Inn, which is even more beautiful. But said that a teenager came in front of the inn, the boy was dressed in gray, and there were a few patches on it, and he walked in to see, the boy was about 10 years old, and a teenager's childishness was mixed with a bit of perseverance, his height was not outstanding, and he looked a little handsome, but he was by no means handsome, and he could only say that he could be a little more memorable than ordinary, and that's all.

When the young man was just about to walk into the inn, the young man in Tsing Yi who greeted the guest at the door in the morning had just left the door of the inn, and when he saw the young man, he said with a smile: "Shi Yi, have you finished your homework?"

The young man was walking with his head down, but when he heard a familiar voice calling him, he quickly raised his head: "Hello second uncle, Mr. Morning has finished teaching his homework." ”

Hearing the boy's return, the Tsing Yi guy is the boy's second uncle, named Shi Xin, is a guy in the Qingzhu Inn, because he has the ability to see people and talk about people, and he is very loved by the innkeeper. There are not many family members at the time, he is the second in the family, there is a big brother above, there is a son and a daughter, it is the young man in front of him, called Shi Yi, he also has a younger brother, there are two sons, but he himself lacks only one daughter under his knees, and later because of some dark diseases in the body, he can no longer have children. The Shi family is not rich and wealthy in Yunshan Town, ordinary people, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are also honest people, just such a son, the two sons of the third brother, one has reached the crown, and the other is still in infancy. Although the Shi family is not a big family, the second child has been working hard for so many years, and he deeply realized that if he wants to change the Shi family, he must rely on the younger generations to study and show off his talents, and even sometimes the three brothers dream that the Shi family can produce a champion, so that the Shi family can shine on the lintel. So, although reading is a very difficult thing for ordinary people, the three brothers still gritted their teeth and tried to let Shi Yi and his eldest brother Shi Yan follow the gentleman in the town to study, for this matter, the whole family did not waste much thought, which made the rest of the town look like a demon, the children of poor families can master a craft is much more useful than reading the book of Raushzi, these three brothers can be good, not only let Shi Yi, the oldest of this generation, study the book, of course, the eldest Shi Yan is also really angry, I heard that now he is favored by the Washington Mansion of Zhuoshan County, and he went to be a companion to the second young master of the family。 When he arrived, he was just over ten years old now, and his head was also extremely smart, so the people in Yunshan Town said that the Shi family was going to be lucky.

Shi Zhen looked at the young man in front of him, and couldn't help but feel relieved, this child is indeed sensible, since he was 6 years old and let him study with his husband, although it cost a lot of money in the middle, but it can finally change the situation that the Shi family is illiterate in big words. And Shi Yi's child is really worry-free, he will come here after school at noon to help, sometimes he can't entertain himself, this child can still help serve tea and water for himself.

"Shi Yi, the people from Beishan Mansion came on the second floor today, you don't have to go up to help, go to the backyard and do it", seeing that there was no one around, Shi Xin whispered to Shi Yi.

"Well, I see!" Shi Yi also returned to the second uncle, and after speaking, he slipped through the door and entered the lobby.

......

In the backyard, I heard the sound of chopping wood intermittently, and I only saw Shi Yi chopping firewood in a decent manner, probably because he had been doing farm work for a long time, Shi Yi was indeed a little stronger than children of the same age. The owner of the inn will also give Shi Yi half a tael of silver every month, although Shi Yi can not do much work, but pity him for a piece of filial piety.

Although Shi Yi was chopping wood, he was thinking about other things in his mind, and from the fact that his eyes seemed to be staring at the firewood, but his eyes were extremely firm, he could guess that his heart was not on the pile of firewood in front of him. "Beishan Mansion, that is the largest clan in Beishan County, close to the northern ice field, I would like to have a chance to go for a walk. Shi Yi thought in his heart, he studied with Mr. for four years, in addition to literacy, occasionally Mr. would tell the story of the heroes on the rivers and lakes, which made a group of children excited, and Shi Yi also yearned for that kind of happy life in his heart, not according to the family's hopes. "Hey, it's a pity, I heard what Mr. said, the heroes are either born in the world, or they can meet the masters who go all over the world, otherwise ordinary people will not be able to contact real martial arts in their lives, and I am already ten years old this year, and I have passed the best age of six years old to wash the marrow and bones, so ah, Shiyi, you better study and read hard, martial arts are too far away from you. Shi Yi shook his head and returned to the matter of chopping wood.

In the evening, after saying goodbye to the innkeeper and the second uncle, Shi Yi walked towards the north of the town, where his home was in Yunshan Village, north of the town. When I got home, I saw a little girl about three or four years old, who was playing with a group of children next to the stone mill at the head of the village. When I heard my brother's words, I said "um" and went crazy again. Shi Yi looked at his sister's innocent and lovely smile, smiled himself, and walked towards home.

Before entering the house, I smelled a fragrance, Shi Yi hurriedly ran into the house, and saw his mother stewing, a pot of vegetables mixed with a few pieces of meat, it is also Shi Yi's father happened to meet an injured wild boar at the foot of Yun Mountain the day before yesterday, there is no compassion for the world, Shi Yi's father forked the little wild boar to death, and now the whole Shi family tasted the meat for a few days, and also added some nutrients to Shi Yi, who was growing his body.

After dinner, Shi Yi's mother would always take Shi Fen to the village with other mothers to make shoe soles, and when it was completely dark and Shi Fen fell asleep, Shi Yi's mother would carry Shi Fen home, and as for Shi Yi's father, he would also go to Lalaqua with other big men. The entire Yunshan Village seems to have been spent in this way, from generation to generation, from generation to generation.

As for Shi Yi himself, he would sometimes go to fight with his peers in the village, climb trees, dig birds' eggs, and it was no problem, but more often, he would always climb on the roof alone, fold his hands behind his head, and just lie down and look at the sky, until from evening to night, from navy blue sky to black sky, from a few clouds to stars, from evening to bright moonlight. Until his father called him back to the house to sleep, sometimes Shi Yi fell asleep on the roof, Shi Yi's father would climb on the roof, thinking about waking Shi Yi, but since one time Shi Yi deliberately pretended not to wake up, Shi Yi's father had no choice but to climb off the roof on his back, just like Shi Yi's mother carried Shi Yi's sister on his back, Shi Yi would also be satisfied with burying his head on his father's broad descendants. Sometimes, Shi Yi thinks that it would be great if he could be like this for the rest of his life, and the family would be safe and happy.

Lying on the bed, Shi Yi saw the dark night outside the night through the window, listened to the sound of insects that gradually sounded, and unconsciously thought of the legend of the hero told by Mr. in his mind. Slowly, slowly, Shi Yi fell asleep, maybe many times, Shi Yi became a hero in his dreams, walking the world alone. Perhaps more often, Shi Yi became the legendary immortal in his dream, soaring into the sky with a flying sword......
