Chapter 22: Ice Core Red Flame Lotus
(This continent has nine continents and four seas, so it is called Kyushu and the four seas)
I'm an ordinary office worker and a fan of fiction. In addition to commuting to and from work on time every day, I read novels on my phone all the time. Recently, I became obsessed with a novel again, and I didn't even take a break for days to study the chapters.
Finally, one day, I fell unconscious. In a daze, I seemed to see the old faces of my parents.
Congratulations to Dr. Han, it's a boy!
I opened my eyes, and the strong light caused tears to flow unconsciously, and then, a middle-aged man came into view, as if holding me. The humiliation of being teased in my lower body made me very angry, and I struggled to get away from him, but the weakness of my body made me powerless, I raised my right hand with difficulty, and the scene in front of me instantly scared me, I saw a baby's small hand, which seemed to ...... It's the one I lifted!
Congratulations to Doctor Han, the young master will not cry when he is born, and he will definitely achieve great things in the future.
The middle-aged man laughed happily, but unexpectedly, the baby who was playing with it at this time suddenly splashed a clear spring, and splashed the middle-aged man's face......
The Sword Spirit Empire, named after the spirit sword of a town country, this sword is snow-white, according to legend, the sword is sealed with an ancient giant beast, this beast is called "Tianjiao" and its power is infinite, it is a legendary tenth-order holy beast, it has been passed down for thousands of years, and several crises in the empire have been resolved by this sword in thousands of years, so it is named.
At this moment, in a small city on the northern border of the Sword Spirit Empire of the Ninth Continent, a middle-aged man in his thirties was happily holding a baby and teasing.
The middle-aged name is Han Tianfeng, who is a well-known physician in this forest city, and it is said that his ancestors have practiced medicine for generations, so he has passed down a set of quite perfect medical skills.
At night, there was a drizzle in the sky, but in this rain, there were countless tiny transparent crystals, which revealed a cold chill, making this small city extremely cold in this late autumn night.
In the canal outside the city, due to the convergence of crystals, a layer of cold ice gradually condensed, and even the streets inside the city had potholes that gathered enough crystals to form a thin layer of ice.
On the streets, the occasional passer-by hurries by, wrapped in their robes.
But at this time, there was an old man in sloppy clothes drenched in the rain, staggering through this deserted street, holding a wine jug made of gourd in his hand, humming a little song, and sometimes taking a sip, so that he could live at ease.
But when he walked to a private house, he accidentally stepped on a piece of thin ice, and at the same time he slipped and fell, the wine jug in his hand was suddenly thrown out, and it smashed on the closed doors and windows of this house......
The night was extraordinarily quiet, I lay quietly on a small bed, the noise of the day finally ended, thinking back to the time when a beautiful girl put a bottle in my mouth, in fact, at first I refused...
In this way, my name was called Hanyu without my consent. I tried to protest loudly, but after the organized language changed from my mouth to a whoa-wah-wah-wah, I finally gave up.
Fortunately, in addition to being too weak, my thinking is quite normal, and after a simple analysis, I feel that I am afraid that I have been reincarnated, with all the memories of my previous life, reincarnated......
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a bang from the wooden window, which startled the men and women in the house.
Han Tianfeng's face was slightly angry, and he snorted softly:
"Who scared me?"
With that, he walked to the closed wooden door and opened half of it.
Outside the wooden door, a sloppy old man was sitting on the ground, constantly kneading his legs and feet.
Seeing that it was an old man, Han Tianfeng's anger suddenly dissipated a lot, and he said in a deep voice:
"Forgive me for not having any intentions, let's leave quickly!"
At the same time, a girl's cry came from inside the house.
"Uncle Han, the baby is born, it is not suitable for the cold, close the doors and windows quickly!"
Hearing the girl's shout, Han Tianfeng was about to close the wooden door, but who knew that the old man actually got up with a bone, and his dirty palm was on the wooden door.
"I said why, it turned out that a baby was born, I didn't lose this fall, Doctor Han, can you let me also take a look at your son?"
Although the old man was asking, before Han Tianfeng could react, he squeezed open the half-closed wooden door and got in.
Seeing the old man enter the house, Han Tianfeng immediately closed the wooden door and chased after him.
Inside, a green lamp on the wooden table swayed with the cold wind blowing in, and the soft light illuminated the small house.
There is a woman on the bed who is half-lying on the bed, holding a baby with a "sad face" in her hands, and on the other side, there is a young girl standing beside her, sometimes teasing the baby in the woman's arms.
With the old man's intrusion, the woman in the house was a little nervous, and unconsciously hugged the baby in her arms, and with the old man approaching, Han Tianfeng, who chased into the house, also came to the bed, and his hanging right hand stretched out slightly under the bed.
There, there was a long black sword covered with dust, but at this moment, the long sword was full of rust, as if it had not been used for a long time, but even so, a thumb-sized red spar embedded in the hilt of the sword still had a faint light emanating from it.
I lay quietly in the woman's arms, no matter how they teased, I always looked stunned, but my eyes sometimes looked at the girl standing by, and secretly remembered that it was the bottle that this person had stuffed into my mouth.
It wasn't until my musings were broken by an old man who broke in, and as his dirty, wrinkled face drew closer to me, I could even feel the old man's breath blowing on my face, accompanied by a heavy smell of wine, which made me want to get away from him in disgust.
The woman half-lying on the bed also seemed to see my discomfort and wanted to hold me away from the old man's outstretched face, but with the woman's movements, the old man suddenly stretched out a dirty palm.
At the same time as the old man stretched out his palm, Han Tianfeng, who was always vigilant on the side, immediately pulled out the long sword under the bed.
But due to the rust, Han Tianfeng's force was pulled, and it was brought out along with the hilt of the sword, but when it was still in mid-air, it suddenly fell off, flew out, and smashed on the burning green lantern.
This smash plunged the house into darkness.
That is, at the moment when darkness came, I clearly saw the old man take out a black particle from his bosom with great speed, and stuff it into my mouth alive under my almost frightened countenance.
As the black particles entered my mouth, it seemed to immediately turn into a stream of water, and in a situation that I could not control, it slid into my abdomen, but I could clearly feel its presence, as if it ...... is the seed of a plant......
When the green lantern was lit by the girl again, everything returned to calm, and the old man withdrew his palm very normally, looked at Han Tianfeng who was holding a long sword, and a trace of intriguing chuckle leaked from the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that the ancestors of Doctor Han are not practicing medicine for generations!"
The old man's words seemed to be a question, but he seemed to have already known the answer, and Han Tianfeng did not answer all this, but the old man didn't care, but glanced at the baby lying in the woman's arms again, turned around and left......
The rain has been falling, lasting for a long, long time, as if there is no end, so that this continent has ushered in an unprecedented crisis, and the continuous convergence of transparent crystals has covered the entire land of Kyushu with a thick layer of ice, so that people's food has a serious shortage.
All this has caused the Sword Spirit Empire, which has stood on this continent for thousands of years, to a crisis, and as the grain in the treasury has been exhausted, people have finally lost control completely......
In Lin City, Han Tianfeng was talking to several men with a serious face, all of which was heard in Han Yu's ears, and he vaguely knew that they wanted to leave this city full of killing and looting.
Until the next day, several people with thick bedding embarked on the road to survival.
On a simple wooden plank, all the supplies brought by a few people were piled up, dragging over the cold ice of the city, marking two shallow traces.
Along the way, Hanyu, who was wrapped by the girl in her arms, only leaked a pair of eyes, and when she looked around curiously at the moment, all she saw was the cold ice all over the earth, and the people huddled together on both sides of the road.
Sometimes they showed grief, sometimes they showed fierceness, and when they looked at Han Tianfeng and his party, there was a vague hint of bloodthirsty intent, but when they caught a glimpse of the cold glow emitted by the Dao weapon under the wooden plank, they regained their calm.
The group quickly went out of the city gate, and finally let go of their hanging hearts, and their steps couldn't help but speed up a little, and finally they came to a forest when night was approaching.
Instead of entering the forest, they set up improvised tents in a clearing in front of the forest, ate what little dry food they had left, and fell asleep.
At night, Hanyu could not sleep, listening to the sound of the wind whistling outside the tent and the tinkling sound of the ice picks colliding with each other in the trees in the distant forest, which was like a hypnotic effect.
But at this time, Hanyu broke free from the thick bedding covering his body, stood up lightly, and got out of the tent.
All this did not wake up the sleeping Han Tianfeng couple, until Han Yu stood barefoot on the cold ice full of biting chill, feeling the cold wind blowing on his body, and staring blankly at the bright moon hanging high in the sky.
However, all this was broken by a fishy wind behind him, and when Hanyu turned to look, what caught his eye was a huge black panther......
