Chapter 9: The Flight of Edgeworth
On March 17, 5014 in the true Yuan calendar, it is the time of this world. If you follow the time of Liu Gewen's original world, it should be around 3 o'clock in the morning on May 2, 5014 in the Demon Yuan calendar. Roughly calculated, Liu Gewen has been here for almost 6 hours.
Liu Gewen already knew that the true yuan calendar here was the same as the starting point of the magic yuan calendar in his own world, and the lunar calendar used in ancient times in his own world was similar in the same month. Moreover, the day is divided into twelve hours, each of which is about two hours of its own world.
Earlier, Liu Mingping came back and brought Liu Gewen a set of clothes, which are often worn by ordinary people in this world, but they are very similar to the ancient costumes in Liu Gewen's own world.
Liu Mingping also sent him various daily necessities and a lot of food. To be honest, Liu Gewen was really hungry at the time. If he was still a Holy Magister, of course he wouldn't need to eat. But now he's just a little apprentice magician, and food is still his main source of energy.
After changing into new clothes and eating, Liu Mingping carefully introduced a lot of the current situation in the mainland to Liu Gewen, especially the current situation of the Liu family in Anling, hoping that Liu Gewen would integrate into the current world as soon as possible. Liu Gewen also took this opportunity to learn more about the world.
In this Xiuzhen world, the Pingyu Continent is artificially divided into five major regions, which are called the Eastern Continent, the Southern Continent, the Western Continent, the Northern Continent, and the Central Continent. Among them, the Central Continent is the strongest, the area is not large, but the aura is the strongest, but it has already been occupied by the five super-first-class sects and the top ten first-class cultivation families, and outsiders cannot enter at will.
The other four major regions are similar in strength, and there are many large and small sects and Xiuzhen families, and the relationship between them is very complicated. In the last few hundred years, the Eastern Continent, where the Liu family is located, has been in a weak position on the entire continent.
Except for the Central Continent, where no one dares to establish a state, all other regions have one or more countries to rule over mortals. These countries are inextricably linked with the Xiuzhen family or sect, some countries are puppets of a large sect, some countries are formed by multiple sects, and the royal family of some countries is the Xiuzhen family itself.
There are six countries on the Eastern Continent, and they all have the support of major sects behind them. Under the coordination of the various sects and the Xiuzhen family, there were not many major wars between these countries, but small wars continued.
The Yan Kingdom, where the Liu family is located, is located in the northern part of the Eastern Continent, adjacent to the Northern Continent. The Liu family used to be a super-first-class Xiuzhen family, and although the Yan Kingdom was not its vassal, the Yan Imperial Family had a very good relationship with the Liu family. With the Liu family here, other forces did not dare to move the Yan Kingdom. It's just that the Liu family has already declined, and although the national strength of the Yan State has not declined, it has no support from big forces, and it is in a weak position among other countries.
Yanbei County, where Liu's family is located, borders the only country in the Northern Continent, the Di Kingdom. I don't know why, the border army of Di suddenly launched an attack on Yanbei County. Because of the suddenness of the incident, the defenders were not prepared, and the Di army quickly broke through Yanbei Pass, and then carried out a brutal massacre.
In the end, only three servants of the Liu family in Yanbei Guan escorted two sons and a young lady to escape. After escaping, they contacted Liu Donghong, who asked them to take refuge in Liu's house. After Liu Donghong and the three of them went back to discuss, they planned to let Liu Gewen first mix in the people of the Liu family in Yanbei Pass and come back to the Liu family in Anling. Therefore, Liu Donghong contacted them overnight and learned that they had just arrived in a small village to rest, so he told them to wait in place.
Liu Donghong stood in front of Liu Gewen and said, "Sir, we have discussed, we are going to send you to the Liu family in Yanbei Pass first, and then you will return to the Liu family with them, what do you think?"
Since they had all been arranged, there was no need for Liu Gewen to object, so he nodded in agreement. After packing up his things, Liu Donghong took Liu Gewen into the wall of the secret room.
When Liu Gewen reappeared, he found that he and Liu Donghong were standing on the top of a high mountain, and an ancient tree next to them needed four adults to embrace, and he didn't know how many years it had grown. There was a bright moon overhead, and countless bright stars surrounded him. It can be seen faintly in the moonlight, surrounded by continuous mountains. The environment here is indeed the same as the environment where the secret room of the Liu family is located in his own world.
Liu Gewen is in a complicated mood now, he has not seen the outside world for hundreds of years, and now he has finally woken up, but the world he is in is not the world he is familiar with. Can I go back?
Liu Donghong said apologetically on the side: "Sir, in order not to attract the attention of others, I can only send you out while it is dark." ”
"It doesn't matter. Liu Gewen didn't care and said softly.
Liu Donghong took out a long sword and said, "Sir, although I have other flying magic weapons, which are faster and more comfortable, they are too large and easy to be discovered, so I can only use the flying sword to take you for a while, and then use the flying magic weapon when I leave the Liu family's sphere of influence." ”
Liu Gewen looked at this simple long sword, and his heart was full of novelty. There are no monks in my own world, but there are many ancient legends of chivalry, and many chivalrous warriors can also fly with swords, and they are the idols of many children. I also wanted to be a chivalrous man when I was a child, even if I became stronger and stronger later, but I was still very curious about chivalry.
In the eyes of mortals in this world, the flight of Edgeworth is a symbol of the monk. But in front of the truly strong, this is nothing more than a child's trick.
In the cultivation realm, the Qi Refining Realm has already begun to cultivate, but only after reaching the foundation building can he truly become a monk. Many people with poor talent will not be able to build a foundation after cultivating for a lifetime. When refining the Qi Realm, the cultivator's body has too little aura, and the Edgeworth flight consumes a lot of aura, even in the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm, the Edgeworth can only fly for a short time, and the speed is not fast. If it weren't for the purpose of putting a fork in front of mortals, or if there was something urgent, Qi Refining Realm cultivators rarely flew with their swords.
After the foundation was built, the monks' bodies were full of spiritual energy, and Edgeworth's flight became their usual mode of travel. When the monk reaches a higher realm, he can fly without Edgeworth, and many people have various advanced flying magic weapons, so they don't need Edgeworth to fly.
For the strong people who have reached the Yuan Infant Realm, Liu Donghong has rarely flown the sword. However, for Liu Gewen, a rookie who has just entered the world of cultivation, Edgeworth Flying is still very attractive.
Liu Donghong threw out the flying sword in his hand, and then pulled Liu Gewen to jump on top of the flying sword, reciting the magic trick in his mouth, and the flying sword flew at high speed with the two of them.
But neither Liu Gewen nor Liu Donghong realized that in the void above their heads, there was a man in black who had been observing their every move!
