Chapter 1 The Mountain Village Boy
In Hei Province, the northeastern border of the Huaxia Kingdom, there is an ancient elm village, which is named after a thousand-year-old elm that requires five people to hug in the village.
Therefore, according to legend, this ancient elm has spirituality. When it rains, a layer of water droplets will appear on the trees, and the villagers will pack up their belongings in advance to prevent them from being caught in the rain.
When some villagers have some minor illnesses in their homes, they will burn incense and pray in front of this thousand-year-old elm, and then put an empty bowl at the root of the ancient elm. The next morning, the water condensed on the tree fills a bowl. When the patient drinks this bowl of sap, it often works wonders. When there are the most people begging for water, dozens of empty bowls will be placed under the tree, which is a wonder in Guyu Village.
Water Blue Star Chinese Calendar 1988. In the middle of summer in July, the sky was clear, and a round of scorching sun was like a big fireball, roasting the ground to a boiling heat. A gust of south wind blew, rolling up waves of heat from the ground, and the fire burned so that I felt suffocated. The mountains in the distance are still verdant, but they also give the feeling of a foggy steamer, and the whole world feels like a big steamer.
In such weather, only the river can still have a trace of coolness. A group of children in Guyu Village are playing by the Yushu River in the north of the village, some climbing trees on the bank to dig birds' nests, some are fighting water fights by the river, and some are catching fish in the river......
Suddenly, there was a shouting and scolding in the river.
"Song Zhong, you stupid, you tripped me again. ”
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Boss Li Xuan, it's all because the fish swam too fast. Be sure to pay attention next time. ”
"And next time, I think you're just underbeaten. ”
"Don't fight, don't fight, there will never be a next time. ”
In the middle of the river, where the water was knee-deep, two fourteen or fifteen-year-old boys were arguing.
A tall and thin man with a slightly darker complexion is called Li Xuan. The name has a lot of origins. It is said that when Li Xuan was born, he actually held an octagonal sign in his hand, which was neither gold nor jade, and a very strange word was engraved on it. Later, Li Xuan's father, Li Dajun, found the old scholar who had taught in a private school in Guyu Village, and recognized this character as the ancient "Xuan" character in Huaxia. This old scholar studied for a long time and named Li Dajun's son "Xuan". He also said, "Mysterious and mysterious, the door of all wonders", this son will become a great weapon in the future. In order to name this matter, Li Dajun also sent half a bag of flour to this old pedant.
Originally, Li Dajun wanted to drill this brand into two eyes, and then match it with a chain to make a long-life lock for Li Xuan. However, several drill bits were wasted, and they were unsuccessful. It was Li Xuan's mother Song Yuqin who came up with a way to sew this strange brand into a red cloth pocket before hanging it around Li Xuan's neck.
The little boy next to him who was white and chubby was called Song Zhong, about ten centimeters shorter than Li Xuan, the child of Li Xuan's uncle's family, only three months younger than Li Xuan, and he was still a classmate in elementary school.
Song Zhong's name was also given by the old pedant, saying that this child was born with loyalty and was named "Zhong". He also said, "The world is the most virtuous, and it is great to be loyal", and this son will become a great weapon in the future. In fact, it was this child who was a little fat when he was born, and he was named loyal by the old pedant. For this name, Li Xuan's uncle also paid half a bag of flour.
When Li Xuan grew up, he learned that most of the children in the village were named by this old pedant. And after choosing a name, there will always be an ancient quote, and the last sentence must be "This son will become a great weapon in the future".
Li Xuan's grandfather was not very interested in the name Song Zhong, saying that it was not pleasant to hear, and he had to ask the old scholar to help give him another one. This is to offend the old pedant, and to give this old man a bad lesson for talking about feudal superstition. "The name Song Zhong couldn't be better. "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" you know, right? Song Zhong was a subordinate of Mu Liu Biao in Jingzhou, who was a very famous Confucian. You don't have culture, you don't know. "You know the Hongwu Dynasty of the Huaxia Kingdom, right? Song Zhong was the commander of the Jinyi Guard. That's the emperor's most trusted general. You don't have culture, you don't know. "And 'the world's most virtuous, great loyalty' do you know, you must not know either!" "The name Song Zhong is both civil and military! You actually want to change such a good name, I really don't know what to say." After receiving more than an hour of ideological education, Li Xuan's grandfather had no choice but to accept his fate. Song Zhong is Song Zhong, in the future, I really have to count on this grandson to support his old age.
However, in Li Xuan's heart, his cousin has nothing to do with loyalty and honesty at all. Since childhood, he has been lazy, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, and extremely slippery. Digging birds in the trees and fishing in the river, he has never missed this cousin. Because my cousin was naughty, I didn't repair him less. But it's no wonder, the more this Song Zhong is repaired, the better he treats Li Xuan, and his cousin doesn't call him anymore, he directly calls Li Xuan Boss, like a little follower.
Li Xuan has loved to read martial arts novels since he was a child, especially martial arts TV series, and when he was fine, he learned the actions on TV and practiced a few times.
I don't know what the reason is, Li Xuan's health is very good, and he has never been sick until he is fourteen years old. He has had a lot of strength since he was a child, a child two or three years older than him, and he is not an opponent at all when he wrestles, and he has become a child king very early. After going to elementary school, he quickly beat the invincible opponents in the whole school, and was nicknamed "Invincible Little Overlord".
However, Li Xuan didn't just hit people casually. He beats all the naughty and mischievous children, especially the children who bully female classmates are the most beaten.
At that time, the little boys in the countryside were very naughty, and sometimes put some snakes, mice, toads or something in the desks of their female classmates, which scared the female classmates so much that they cried, and a group of male classmates would watch the jokes on the sidelines.
Li Xuan especially loves to uphold justice and always regards himself as a chivalrous man. Whoever bullied a female classmate, he would stand up and fight until he subdued the naughty boy. The female classmates called him "Flower Messenger" behind their backs.
Because he always loves to fight, he has not been criticized by his teachers. In particular, some children go home to tell their parents after being beaten and crying, and people often come to Li Xuan's house to complain. For this reason, Li Xuan was also reprimanded by his parents. It's just that he has been taught repeatedly, and he always thinks that he is doing chivalrous justice.
His cousin Song Zhong used to bully female classmates the most, and Li Xuan didn't beat him less. came and went, and finally convinced Song Zhong and became his most loyal follower. However, it's okay to fight yourself, but it's not okay for others to bully Song Zhong. If others bullied Song Zhong, he would always be the first to rush forward.
I remember when I was in the fourth grade of elementary school, there were 4 sixth-grade children who bullied Song Zhong. Li Xuan rushed up and directly knocked down two pairs, one by one of whom had a blue nose and swollen face. The parents went to Li Xuan's house to complain, but Li Xuan's mother did not reprimand him this time, and praised him for playing well. If his cousin is bullied, is there still humanity? Just tell him not to beat him so hard next time, and the medical expenses for breaking people are really distressing? Since then, Li Xuan usually doesn't greet people in the face when he beats them again.
Finally, Li Xuan survived until he graduated from elementary school, and the "Invincible Little Overlord" and "Flower Messenger" were finally leaving Guyu Village Primary School. This made many naughty children in the fourth and fifth grades breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, and the mountain that was pressing on their heads was finally leaving.
During the summer vacation, Li Xuan and his little follower Song Zhong went to the Yushu River to fish. At that time, the family did not have the money to buy any fishing nets. Li Xuan found an old gauze net more than one meter long, and then sharpened two wooden sticks with a knife, and tied the two ends of the gauze to the wooden sticks to make a simple and practical fishing net. This net has made a great contribution to them. Every time I go down to the river, it only takes more than an hour to catch more than two catties of fish, which is basically enough for my family to eat.
Today may be the reason why the weather is too hot, they have been down the river for more than half an hour, but they have only caught a few small fish, and they can't help but feel a little anxious.
Just now, a palm-sized carp swam past them. Li Xuan told his cousin to lean over slowly. But this stupid Song Zhong has not achieved enough things, and he has more than enough failures. He slipped without taking two steps, and tripped Li Xuan, and the fish naturally escaped. was so angry that Li Xuan scolded.
And that's not even the most infuriating. What made Li Xuan most angry was that he was actually injured by this trip. He had fought for almost ten years, and he had not been injured once, but he was actually tripped and injured while fishing, which made him feel very shameless.
When they went down to the river to catch fish, they were wearing only shorts and were shirtless. Unlike Song Zhong, Li Xuan also had a red cloth pocket hanging around his neck. It contains an octagonal sign that he brought with him when he was born. Since it was sewn into a pocket, it hasn't been seen again. Song Zhong had asked many times to see what that brand looked like, but Li Xuan refused. It's my own treasure, and no one can look at it.
This time I fell, the sign just stood up, and a corner was pierced near Li Xuan's chest, giving a cut, and a lot of blood flowed out. The red cloth pocket also had a hole, revealing the golden corner inside.
"Boss Li Xuan, you are bleeding, quickly wash it with water. Hey, your sign glowed, and it seemed to be flashing just now. ”
With a "snap", Li Xuan slapped Song Zhong on the head, "You are big, you must be dazzled." Hurry home, why do I feel a little confused?"
