Chapter 1 The Beginning of the Bloodline Chapter 2 Making Friends in the City Lord's Mansion
The group had been setting off for a long time, and in order to take care of the girl Xiaozhu and the child Xingchen in the car, the carriage was moving very slowly. So, they continued to march through the wilderness until they were blocked in their way. Not far in front of them, seven dilapidated carriages were parked on the road, and their guards were confronting a group of masked men, but none of them made the first move.
Yi Yun looked at them and was not surprised by this scene. This kind of thing has always happened, and the few small families that are not welcomed today rely on this to make their fortunes. Since it is a mandatory right to carry out bloodline awakening on Qimai Day, some villages often unite with several nearby villages to form a guard team for the safety of children and the future of the village, and escort the children of the village to Fusu City to receive the bloodline awakening ceremony.
Others began to take risks and stop these convoys without a backstage. But the people who intercepted the car were severely attacked by the army of Yan and Huang. Later, someone figured out the bottom line of the army and the thoughts of the village chief, and the interception operation became an obstruction operation. They don't hurt the children, but they don't let them go anytime soon. In this way, there will be no blow from the army.
Without the help of the army, the people of the combined convoy are in a hurry, and the delay means that their children may become the last few people to start the bloodline, and then the pulse initiators will not have the patience to fully develop the bloodline, which will not affect the potential of the children and the future of the village. But if you pay the money, how much you have to pay along the way. On the way to Fusu City, they followed the caravan, paid the bail, and avoided a lot of extortion, but they didn't expect that there was such a thing in Fusu City, and they confronted each other for a while.
Yi Yun didn't let his subordinates take a step forward, and those masked people didn't have any power behind them, so he wouldn't believe it. He stopped because he had discovered something interesting, and he was not afraid to provoke such trouble, and the masked men did not dare to provoke the wagons of the army.
Wang Si, the leader of the masked men, is making his fortune, phew, robbery testimonials. When he saw the armor and the emblems on the carriage, he almost had the intention of retreating. But he found that the other party didn't seem to be looking for trouble, so he continued to make comments. I don't know if it's Yi Yun's relationship with them, Wang Si suddenly popped up the word military regulations in his heart.
He came up with a rule for robbery, doesn't the army like to line up? He can make the hillbilly in front of him line up. So he cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, we are also here to make a living, and if we delay like this, it will only affect everyone's affairs." You hillbillies are lined up, and I only accept 20 medium-grade spirit stones for the first car, 40 for the second car, 60 for the third car, and so on. After paying the spirit stones, we will let you go. ”
In the beginning, there was no movement on the part of the combined convoy. Spirit stones, the currency circulating in the Bloodline Continent, are divided into lower grade, middle grade, and upper grade, with an exchange ratio of 1000:100:1.
But as time passed, there were finally people who couldn't stand up to each other. The man took out two medium-grade spirit stones and threw them to Wang Si, and the carriage he was in charge of was released. The rest of the people were not calm, and they took out the spirit stones one after another and wanted to trade first, and there was even a small friction inside. In the end, Wang Si got what he wanted, and the combined team was able to let go.
Xingchen in the carriage looked at the farce in front of him and asked, "Why didn't they resist, but obediently paid the spirit stones?"
Yi Yun looked at the path out of the way and said, "Because this is Yangmou." Knowing that it is a trap, people will step into it. With that, he made a gesture and ordered the guards to move forward, directly ignoring the masked man in front of him.
"Why?" the stars wondered even more.
"Because people with different hearts are together, when faced with threats, in order to protect their own interests, their heads will be confused. Yi Yun seemed to be recalling something, and explained earnestly.
Xingchen looked thoughtfully at the convoy ahead.
"Young Master Xingchen, what are you thinking?" The maid Xiaozhu was a little stunned when she saw Xingchen, and shook his little hand.
"I'm thinking, if Sister Xiaozhu and I encounter this kind of thing, we won't be as stupid as them!hehe!" Xingchen suddenly hugged the arm of the maid Xiaozhu and said happily.
"Hmm!" the maid Xiaozhu somehow, her face was a little hot, so she had to respond simply.
Finally, a day later, they reached their destination, the Fusu City Lord's Mansion. Under the leadership of Yi Yun, Xingchen met Yi Yun's master, the famous Zhuge Yu, the mysterious person who brought Xingchen in.
For Zhuge Yu, Xingchen's heart was full of admiration. A year ago, the Blood Clan army used Fuguang Town as a breakthrough to invade the border of Yanhuang Kingdom. When the war was about to spread to Fusu City, Zhuge Yu led more than 1,000 soldiers and horses to annihilate the elite army of 100,000 blood clans. If Xingchen had that kind of strength, his parents wouldn't have died. Xingchen wanted to ask Zhuge Yu about the whole of the raid, but the other party did not give him an answer. This made him very disappointed, and it seemed that the only way to do this was to unlock the seal of the Amnesia Stone.
The next morning, the maid Xiaozhu was preparing a wooden bucket for Xingchen to bathe. Ever since Young Master Xingchen got the "Water Source Pulse Washing Technique", he would practice for an hour every morning. When she finished adjusting the water temperature and sprinkled the potion, a small figure sprang in, and before she could see clearly, jumped into the bucket, splashing her clothes wet.
Xiaozhu stared at the little head in the bucket and said, "Young Master Xingchen, take off your clothes and take a bath, otherwise it will affect the power of the medicine." Come here, I'll help you take it off and wipe it down. ”
But the little head still couldn't come, "Sister Xiaozhu, can I wash it myself." ”
"No, come here. Xiaozhu didn't agree to his request, and before she knew it, she was becoming more and more like a sister than a maid. Even she herself couldn't figure out who she was, perhaps because Xingchen was an orphan. Only one person close to her has created her today's posture.
Xingchen had to obey Xiaozhu's orders and obediently accept the service.
After the bath, Xingchen took advantage of Xiaozhu's cleaning up the barrel, hastily finished breakfast, and slipped out. When he came yesterday, he saw a child of the same age nearby, very poorly dressed, and he thought it was a stranger like him, and he wanted to get to know that person. It's a remote area, so you don't have to worry about getting in trouble by walking around.
After running fast for a while, he finally came to a dilapidated courtyard. The child he was going to see was carving wood with a knife, and there were many lifelike wood carvings in his hand.
"It's amazing, your hands are so skillful, my name is Lu Xingchen, it's an honor to meet you!" Xingchen shouted to the children in the courtyard.
"Han Feng. The child responded briefly.
"Won't you invite me in?" Xingchen asked with a smile.
Seeing the enthusiastic Xingchen, Han Feng recruited: "Come in!" Since he came to the Bloodline Continent, no one has given him a good face, Xingchen is so enthusiastic, he opened his mouth to invite.
"Thank you!" Xingchen replied politely, and walked in. When he came to Han Feng's side, the other party still continued his carving.
Although Han Feng lowered his head, he was still chatting with Xingchen, and the conversation was more about his wood carvings. They didn't stop chatting until the stars wanted to go back.
When Xingchen left, Han Feng asked him to choose a wood carving. In the end, Xingchen chose a bird wood carving, and promised to bring a flute over tomorrow and play a song to Han Feng as a gift in return.
On the third day of coming to the City Lord's Mansion, because he came back too late yesterday, Xingchen was criticized by Xiaozhu. So when he came out again, he could only take Xiaozhu with him to find his new friends. Xiaozhu did not disturb the two children's play, but helped Han Feng tidy up the dilapidated courtyard.
"Han Feng, this is my return gift, it's ugly. Xingchen took out the jade flute from the storage ring and played it directly. When he was playing, Han Feng's face changed a little abnormally. When Xingchen finished playing, he suddenly asked excitedly, "What is this piece called?" Xingchen, can you tell me?"
"'Plum Blossom Falling, do you want to compose the music?' I can give you a transcript. Combined with Han Feng's current expression and the dilapidated courtyard, Xingchen seemed to have guessed something, maybe this song was related to a more important person on the other side, so he planned to give the song to the other party.
"But 'Plum Blossom Falling', one of the twenty-eight horizontal blowing songs in the Han Le Mansion?" Han Feng asked more eagerly after hearing the title of the song. But Xingchen's words in the next second dispelled his illusions.
"What Han Le Fu? I don't know. Xingchen replied.
Han Feng's heart was lost, and the result of empty joy was generally like this.
At this time, an inopportune voice sounded, "Oh, the second young master of our family actually has a friend." It's rare!" Xingchen turned to look at the comer, and a man dressed as a servant of the City Lord's Mansion walked in.
"Xingchen, go quickly, I don't want to bother you!" Han Feng looked at Xingchen apologetically, afraid that this only friend would be innocently framed like his maid.
Xingchen looked at Han Feng in surprise, he could be called the second young master here, it was very likely that he was the son of the Han City Lord, how could he be mixed up like this, a servant could bully him at will.
"I want to go, it's too late, boy, I'm going to break your leg and see who's still associated with this shit. After saying that, the servant rushed up violently, but no matter how much he attacked, he couldn't catch up with the little slippery head in front of him, well, the same little slippery head as a loach. Look where you are going!" the servant was at last so angry that he drew his scimitar from his waist and slashed at the stars. Just as he was about to slash the little slippery head, he was kicked away, knocked down the wall of the small courtyard, and fell ten meters away from the small courtyard. In his original position, there was a girl ---- Xiaozhu standing, who had been with Qingyin for half a year, and her strength had broken through to a master-level martial artist.
Not to be surprised, Han Feng hurriedly asked the two of them to bury the body together. After dealing with all this, Han Feng worriedly sent away his newfound friend. He didn't understand what was wrong with him, others helped him deal with his troubles, and he was still living his life in such a timid manner.
