Chapter 1 The Little Town in the West
The vast land of Shenzhou is boundless, and it is divided into four major continents, which are Shenzhou in the east, Niuhe in the west, Ganbu in the south, and Luzhou in the north. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Since the Qin and Han dynasties, the authority above the temple has been declining, and the world has been in turmoil. The wind of the rangers in the Central Plains is flourishing, and the martial ancestor is in the dust, teaching martial arts, the power of the puppet is no longer insignificant, and it is not delusional to kill the enemy country. A new era has dawned.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the power of the rivers and lakes became stronger and stronger, and the strength of individuals was enough to rewrite the situation of the entire world, and the Wudao court also gave those martial arts people who yearned for the center of power a justifiable excuse, and the century-long turmoil began.
The court is full of people with a small eye on it, and they are overly confident in the insignificant power in their hands, and they are too contemptuous of the forces in the rivers and lakes that really control absolute force, and the fall of a dynasty is a foregone conclusion.
As the center of Shenzhou, the source of the turmoil in the south of the province of the continent also affected the other three continents, the war at the end of the Sima family was pushed to the front, and the family family hidden behind, the real master from the Son of Heaven Yiyan Hall evolved into the stage of several major family games, the world has become the world of the family, the world of the people of the rivers and lakes.
Since then, a group of martial arts masters have dressed themselves in the cloak of princes and ministers, and have used politician methods to play this great country to pieces. The wolf smoke is everywhere, the blood is drifting, the ordinary people are ten rooms and nine empty, and the four continents are all in war. A period of blood mixed with endless darkness made it difficult for the general public to see a ray of light.
Until 300 years later, there is a strong master adhering to the idea of purging the universe and reorganizing the mountains and rivers was born, and his body was cultivated to the sky, wisdom and bravery, and almost single-handedly quelled the disaster of the war that lasted for 300 years, and established the Great Sui, the co-lord of the four continents, and the descendants respected him as the saint Son of Heaven - Emperor Wen of Sui.
It's a pity that this amazing generation of emperors is not right after all, the Sui Dynasty died twice, but under the turmoil, it was Li Tang who was unified, and he had the last laugh until today.

The border of the Tang Dynasty, the northwest border.
The walls of the loess were only four feet high, and even the city gates were no more than a foot high, and there was no obstruction to the yellow sand in the desert. This small city on the border of the Tang Dynasty looked like the old and weak soldiers guarding it, too weak.
Fortunately, the war has long subsided, and in this day when the power of the Tang Dynasty is becoming stronger and stronger, the countries in the Western Regions near the Tang Dynasty dare not touch their tiger whiskers, and this small city has stabilized.
According to the legend of the older generation in the city, there was originally a huge and prosperous city here, but it was buried by the wind and sand, leaving only the outer city in the northern corner.
Although the environment of Beiguo City is relatively harsh, the people are still quite vigorous, and even if they were buried by the wind and sand, they could not drive away the Beiguo people who were difficult to leave their homeland. And because it is located at the junction of the Tang Dynasty and the countries of the Western Regions, it is also the throat of the trade road, so there are many pedestrians coming and going, and it also gives the Beiguo people in the desert a rare place to live.
Most of the people who come and go here are businessmen, but there are also many traveling scholars and knights who wander around.
Just like this young ranger who has been here for more than a month - Xiao Wu.
Ranger, an ancient profession, has a long history, and has existed as a force to be reckoned with since ancient times, adhering to the subjective distinction between good and evil, and wandering all over the world.
Holding a three-foot Qingfeng in his hand, he swept away the grievances in his heart.
Of course, Xiao Wu's real name is not called Xiao Wu, just because he doesn't have a name.
Xiao Wu has a "classic life experience" that has been ruined since he was a child, but was rescued by a master and accepted under the door. What is helpless is that almost 20 years have passed, Xiao Wu has grown up safely, that is, he did not live only for hatred, urging his own strength to expand rapidly, and there was no enemy to come to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, so that he would have adventures and turn the tables on his death every time.
Following a ranger master who can't even afford his name, he travels north and south, and lives a much more interesting life than those sons of the family in the deep mansion compound, at least the sparrows on the branches are more comfortable than the larks in the cage.
If it weren't for the fact that his master felt that it was too much to call his apprentice "Hey" all the time, Xiao Wu would not have been called Xiao Wu because he kept screaming "woo~~~" (maybe, probably, it should be that the child is hungry). It's a bit casual, but it's at least a title.
So far, Xiao Wu is very glad that when the master named himself, he was calling "woo woo woo" instead of "wow wow wow wow". Otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable, and every time he thinks of this, Xiao Wu shuddered.
It was noon, the sun was shining, and the heat waves rolling around made passers-by irritated, as well as the small merchants and vendors lining the long streets.
The irritability in the hearts of the people was accompanied by the noise of the street, which aroused the fire of the heart, and the quarrels between the vendors and the quarrels between pedestrians filled the entire long street in an instant.
The Tang Dynasty is still martial, and the people are fierce. It's not uncommon to start a business without saying a word.
At the end of the street, under the few big trees in the city where you can enjoy the shade.
Several children who were blown red by the wind and sand formed a circle, and in the middle was Xiao Wu, who was sitting on the bluestone and leaning on the trunk of the tree, the whole person was lazy, half-squinting, and his voice was weak.
"You've been pestering me for days, so you can't stop me. ”
"Brother Xiao Wu, you can tell another story. ”
"That's right, Brother Xiaowu, talk about one more, talk about one more. ”
“・・・・・・”
Originally, Xiao Wu stayed in the house of a very simple couple, and Xiao Wu told some of the things he had learned over the years to the children of that family as stories, which could be regarded as killing time, but he didn't expect his audience to expand in a few days.
At first, he thought that a sheep was also herded, and a group of sheep was also herded, but he didn't expect that the lethality of seven or eight children together was so great that he had to hide in Tibet every day. It's just that the kid's strength in hide and seek is too strong, and this time he hid in a tree and was still found.
A few children were chattering around, Xiao Wu tried his best to open his eyes, looking at the scene in front of him, as if dozens of sparrows were screaming in his ears, and sighed helplessly. I couldn't help but think, "It looks like I need to find a new place to live." ”
Compared with himself who is so "popular" now, Xiao Wu can't help but think of the first fourteen years of his life, he has been living by the side of an unreliable master, and the master often doesn't bother to say a word for a month. What's even more powerful is that he can lie down for more than ten days without moving, and he almost doesn't care about Xiao Wu's daily life, which is why he has exercised Xiao Wu's extraordinary life skills and super adaptability to the environment.
Xiao Wu is a good reflection that people's talents are forced out, I am afraid that even if Xiao Wu is thrown into the beggar's nest, he can quickly become familiar with the environment and business, and quickly grow into the overlord of the beggars.
If he hadn't accompanied his master on a few trips, he wouldn't even know that his master was the legendary "man in the rivers and lakes".
And after that, Xiao Wu's extremely strong request, and finally Xiao Wu made a killer move - never to drink for the master again, which made the lazy master agree to teach Xiao Wu to practice martial arts.
In the case of three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, Xiao Wu, who thought he was a young hero and a rare opponent in the world, couldn't bear the idea of wandering the rivers and lakes at the age of fourteen, and said goodbye to the sleeping master in a chic manner, and also "borrowed" the master's money bag by the way.
Now that three years have passed, Xiao Wu, who doesn't know how many losses and hardships he has suffered, has traveled to the northwest border of the Tang Dynasty with the idea that he must not just lose face and go back, and may continue to wander.
"If you don't mix up your personal appearance, you won't go back. ”
This is the only thought that has supported Xiao Wu in the past three years.
Thinking of this, the silent blood in Xiao Wu's heart burned again, and the thoughts flashed all about working hard and fighting for it, and he was a famous man Xiao Wu who would move the world in the near future, loved by thousands of people and sought after by thousands of people, just like the Monkey King of the year, a person wrote an era.
"Brother Xiao Wu!!"
A loud shout dragged Xiao Wu's thoughts back.
The cruel reality once again dealt Xiao Wu a heavy blow, and even a few little dolls couldn't be even, and they still said something to break through the rivers and lakes.
At this moment, the only thought in Xiao Wu's heart was to get out quickly.
"I'm really fed up!" the angry screams in Xiao Wu's heart never stopped.
As soon as his eyes were raised, as if a flash of inspiration, the corners of Xiao Wu's mouth were slightly upturned imperceptibly.
