Chapter 1 The Twin Heroes
In the night sky, the bright moon hid among the soft and light clouds, looking shyly at the quiet world, sprinkling the pure brilliance. Under a stout old locust tree reflected by the moonlight, a beautiful woman sat on a swing made of branches. She is elegant and vulgar, and she has a light spirit.
Her beautiful eyes were staring at a handsome young man sitting on a branch. The young man held in his right hand a wooden sword no more than thirty inches, and the word "fly" was engraved on it. His clear eyes stared at the vast starry sky. He suddenly turned his head to the woman and asked lightly, "Who are you?" The woman smiled, her lips twitching as if she was telling something.
............
"Chen Yu, hurry up, today we have to go to the back mountain to pick herbs and dig wild vegetables. A dark-skinned teenager whispered urgently outside the hospital.
Tatsuyu, an orphan who was abandoned in the middle of the mountain twelve years ago, was later met by a couple surnamed Chen, and adopted him in a heart. The swarthy boy in front of him is the couple's biological son, named Chen Fei, and Chang Chen Yu is three years old.
Chen Yu in the house rubbed his eyes with his hand, and after stretching his waist again, he replied loudly: "Big brother, I'm coming." At the same time, he put on a plain dress. Chen Yu ran to the courtyard and saw Chen Fei sharpening a wooden sword with a knife.
When Chen Yu walked in, Chen Fei threw the wooden sword to Chen Yu and said, "Hehe, take it, this is the peerless sword of our Phoenix Immortals." ”
The brothers have aspired to become swordsmen since childhood, and the Phoenix Immortal Twin Heroes are the titles that Chen Fei thought of for them a few days ago, the title of a pair of chivalrous knights, and the Phoenix Immortals were taken from the name of the town where Chen Fei was located - Fengxian Town.
"Thank you, brother!" Chen Yu took the wooden sword and immediately waved it casually, imagining himself as a real swordsman, although it was disorganized, the brothers were unimpressed.
"Let's go, don't play tricks yet. Chen Fei picked up the bamboo basket beside him and said. "Hmm. Chen Yu made a heavy promise and picked up a bamboo basket. The brothers giggled all the way to the back mountain.
When he arrived at the back mountain, Chen Yu stood in front of Chen Fei who was advancing and said, "Brother, this time we still compare the old rules and gain more than anyone." ”
"Well, although you lose every time, there is no suspense at all, but let's compare with you. Chen Fei pretended to be helpless and said.
Seeing Chen Fei like this, Chen Yu jumped to his feet angrily, and thought: Although this is true, but the last time it was obviously a small gap of a giant spirit mushroom, there is still a big suspense.
Thinking of this, Chen Yu replied unwillingly: "I will definitely win this time." ”
"Well, okay, I'm looking forward to it. Chen Fei said with a smile.
However, suddenly Chen Fei said with a solemn face: "The cliff in the back mountain must not be approached, my father and mother specially instructed me." ”
As soon as Chen Yu saw Chen Fei's solemn expression, he knew what he was going to say, and every time he came to Houshan, he would say, so he responded unintentionally: "I know." ”
After saying that, the brothers divided into two ways. Chen Yu saw Chen Fei walking away, so he quickened his pace to search.
A few hours later, Chen Yu will have a lot of harvest, this is the most he has gained, full of confidence, but still searching and picking.
During the ensuing period, Chen Yu and Chen Fei met once. I wanted to show off in front of him, but when I saw Chen Fei's bamboo basket full of herbs and wild vegetables, I was afraid to walk.
Chen Fei saw through Chen Yu's mind at a glance, and said with a smile: "Little brother, you are still far away!"
"The sun will go down in half an hour, and it may be who will kill the deer. Chen Yu said unconvinced. After speaking, he looked into the distance, and suddenly saw a swift white afterimage.
Chen Fei also followed Chen Yu's line of sight, saw this figure, and said uncertainly: "This, this is Yunxue Rabbit." ”
Cloud Snow Rabbit, an extremely rare creature, white and flawless, known for its agility, so it is known as Yunxue. At the same time, its meat is tender and fragrant, very delicious, and it is the best of the rare birds in people's praise. It's a pity that it is hard to find, and it is difficult to buy a thousand gold, and its preciousness can be imagined.
"Brother, this is what I saw first, don't rob me. Chen Yu looked at Chen Fei and said.
"Little brother, this is a cloud snow rabbit that is hard to buy, I will lose the competition, let's go and capture it together. Chen Fei stared at the white shadow and said. The Chen family is poor, and the couple bears a huge burden, and Chen Fei understands that the cloud snow rabbit in front of him can solve the embarrassing situation.
"Daughter?" said Tatsu Yu with his mouth wide open. Chen Yu didn't know about Yun Xue Rabbit, but he could understand the value of this little guy from Chen Fei's words. In Chen Yu's eyes, it is no longer a rabbit, it is a money bag with long legs.
"We'll outflank it, quick!" Chen Fei said hurriedly.
Chen Yu immediately hurried to follow the little guy. When Tatsuha was about two feet away from it, the little creature was keenly aware of his situation, and sprang through the grass like a beam of white lightning.
"Brother, it's so fast, I can't keep up with it. Chen Yu said anxiously.
After Chen Yu finished speaking, he didn't see a response, and asked involuntarily, "Brother, where are you?"
Still didn't see a response, Chen Yu muttered in his heart: What about the outflanking that was promised?
Tatsuyu's footsteps didn't slow down at all as he spoke. But the little guy was too fast, and gradually narrowed the distance between him and Tatsuyu. Running to a distance of about ten feet, the little one stopped, turned around, and seemed to have a hint of provocative charm in his eyes.
This made Chen Yu angry, and he thought to himself: Please, I'm a hunter, can you give some face, what do you mean by stopping.
Chen Yu used all his strength to eat milk this time, and the little guy immediately turned around and fled.
Just as the little guy turned around, a bamboo basket came out of thin air in front of him, it was caught off guard, as if throwing itself into the basket, the bamboo cover closed the mouth with lightning speed. Immediately after that, the figure of a slightly darkened boy appeared, it was Chen Fei.
"Got you. Chen Fei said with a smile, as a big brother, he couldn't help but be excited when he was calm and calm.
"Brother, you?" Chen Yu asked suspiciously as he looked at Chen Fei who suddenly appeared.
"What's wrong, didn't you just say outflanking," Chen Fei looked at Chen Yu and smiled.
"But why didn't I see you just now, and I shouldn't tell you?"
"Isn't this just in case it startles?"
"Brother, why didn't you remind me? ”
"I did it on purpose, to confuse it first, and then I'm lurking for a good opportunity to wait for it to let go and give it a deadly blow. Chen Fei replied without thinking.
Knowing what happened, Chen Yu looked at Chen Fei with admiration, and had to admit that Chen Fei was more thoughtful than him every time.
"Brother, what about the herbs and wild vegetables in the bamboo basket?"
"That one was thrown away. ”
"Ah, what a pity. ”
"Chen Yu, you have to understand that you can't have both fish and bear's paws, you have to give to get it, and you have to learn to know how to choose. Chen Fei patted Chen Yu on the shoulder and said.
Tatsu Yu tasted it seriously and nodded.
"Brother, you used me as a pawn just now. Chen Yu suddenly said a little slyly.
"Well, that's not counting, we're not working together. Don't forget, we're a couple. Chen Fei said humbly.
"Then my efforts are understandable, brother leave it to me to take care of, I was tossed by it just now. Chen Yu looked at Chen Fei with expectant eyes and said.
"Yes, you can, but you must watch it and don't let it go. Chen Fei touched Chen Yu's head and said.
"Well, don't worry. Chen Yu patted his chest and swore that he said.
Chen Yu and Chen Fei exchanged bamboo baskets in their hands. After Chen Yu took it, he didn't mean to carry it, but held it with both hands. Chen Fei understood Chen Yu's intentions, and looked at him with appreciative eyes, and after Chen Yu saw it, he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.
"It's not early, the sun is going down, and it's dangerous to go up the mountain too late. Chen Fei looked at the sky and said.
"Well, go home early, Daddy wouldn't have guessed that we had gained so much. Tatsu Yu replied with a smile.
The brothers walked back along the road, and the way down the mountain was not something that could be completed in a while. Although they stepped up, they delayed too long in catching rabbits. Soon night fell, there was not a single star, and it was pitch black. There is an eerie atmosphere in the whole back mountain, and you can hear the howling of wolves in the distance, which makes people shudder.
Chen Yu's heart trembled, and he hugged the bamboo basket tightly. They have never been in the back mountain late at night, and even Chen Fei, as the eldest brother, can't be calm, and the wooden sword on his back has already been held in his hand unconsciously, as if he is looking for a sense of security.
"Brother, I'm scared. Chen Yu couldn't help but say with the gloomy scene in front of him.
"Little brother, it's almost here, and there is still time for a stick of incense to go down the mountain and go home. Chen Fei said forcibly and calmly.
Suddenly, a group of uninvited guests stood in the way of the descent. In the dim darkness of the night, a green light flickered like fireflies, and it was the wolf's eyes that shone with a menacing light. When the brothers saw them, they saw them at the same time and walked towards them.
That kind of fierce gaze, dragging a broom-like tail. There is endless greed and ferocity in their grins, believing that any animal they can eat will be eaten to the fullest.
"Brother, it's a gray wolf. Chen Yu said with a trembling voice.
Beads of sweat appeared on Chen Fei's forehead.
"Let's go, walk slowly up the hill, and I'll run when I say later." Chen Fei took Chen Yu's hand and stepped back and said. Chen Fei stared at the gray wolf, moving step by step, moving faster and faster. The gray wolves seemed to be approaching leisurely, but if you compare them carefully, they are also much faster.
"Run!" Chen Fei shouted. The brothers ran wildly, and the gray wolf behind them finally began to chase after them.
In the face of life and death, the brothers were nervous, stimulated their unlimited potential, and ran at an unimaginable speed. Although it is slightly inferior to the gray wolf, it will not be caught up for a while.
The brothers galloped at great speed, not daring to relax in the slightest, and the gray wolf chased after them. Gradually, the brothers ran to the edge of the cliff.
"Hurry up the tree!" Chen Fei immediately analyzed decisively. Chen Yu put the bamboo basket behind his back, holding the tree with both hands, Chen Fei pushed Chen Yu, and Chen Yu landed on the tree with three times and five divided by two. Chen Yu went up to the branch and pulled Chen Fei, and the cooperation was very tacit.
The gray wolf stared at the brothers on the branches, howling incessantly, jumping up repeatedly to grab and bite. The brothers leaned closer, looking at the hungry wolf below, a little relieved, but their hearts were still pounding.
Suddenly, a gray wolf showed its sharp claws, pierced deep into the trunk of the tree, and climbed up little by little. Seeing this, Chen Fei was secretly shocked, took off the bamboo basket behind him, and swung it towards the gray wolf who was about to climb up. The gray wolf dodged deftly and grabbed at the bamboo basket. Chen Fei immediately let go, and the gray wolf grabbed the bamboo basket and fell.
The gray wolf crawled to the trunk again, this time not one, but three, and three in succession. Chen Fei took the wooden sword and prepared to attack, Chen Yu wanted to help, but he was powerless, because the branch only allowed one person to meet it.
Chen Fei fought with the gray wolf, and soon ran out of breath, although he drove down one gray wolf after another, but in the face of such a wheel battle, he knew that sooner or later he would fall. The strength in his body has long been exhausted, and the only thing that supports him is a faith, an unwilling belief -- he can't protect his brother.
This belief made him more and more courageous, Chen Fei held the trunk of the tree in his right hand, and stabbed the fierce green eye with the sword in his left hand, and quickly pulled it out. You can see the blood spraying, you can hear the miserable howl of the wolf, but no one will sympathize with it.
During the period when Chen Fei was facing the enemy, the little guy in the bamboo basket behind Chen Yu had been waiting for an opportunity to move. It suddenly jumped out, and Tatsu Yu subconsciously grabbed it.
"No, don't, Tatsuha. Chen Fei saw it and immediately turned around and said.
However, it was too late, and although Chen Yu grabbed the cloud snow rabbit, one of his bodies was unbalanced and fell from the trunk of the tree, falling not to the flat ground, but to the cliff. Chen Fei immediately ran over, glared at the branch with his foot, jumped towards Chen Yu, and grabbed him with his hand.
Chen Fei grabbed Chen Yu's hand with his right hand and the branch with his left hand. Chen Yu was stupid and let go of the hand that grabbed Yun Xueha. The cloud snow rabbit fell on the cliff wall, and because of its agile body, it climbed up the cliff and disappeared in a puff of smoke. Now neither Chen Fei nor Chen Yu will pay attention to this little guy, and it is difficult to protect himself.
After a while, the tree seemed unkind, and its branches began to break in the middle. At this time, Chen Fei's left hand was already bruised, and his face was purple.
I only heard a "pop" and the branch broke. The two fell off a cliff.
Faced with the fear of dying again and again, Chen Yu was already numb, and instinctively slashed the cliff wall with a wooden sword in his hand to slow down, and his right hand clutched the collapsed Chen Fei.
After falling about a dozen zhang, Chen Yu saw a tree as thick as a calf growing on the cliff wall, and immediately stuck it with a wooden sword to make a pause.
There was another "snap", this time the wooden sword broke, and Chen Yu's left hand was numb. Tatsu Yu quickly let go of the wooden handle and grabbed the trunk of the tree, which can be described as lightning and flint.
But the brothers are still in a life-and-death dilemma, and their lives are hanging by a thread.
Chen Fei kept looking around, his mind spinning rapidly. Suddenly, he found a hidden cave and weighed it in his heart.
"Chen Yu, put me down quickly, there is a cliff hole twenty feet above you, you first step on this tree trunk, climb the stone wall directly above you, grab the rattan on the left, climb up, and you can get there. Chen Fei analyzed carefully.
"No, I won't let it go, it's my fault that it's like this, how can I let go now?" Chen Yu said with a crying voice.
"You have to live well, I am your eldest brother, and I will protect you in the end, and I must not drag you down. Chen Fei couldn't help Chen Yu refused, and let go of Chen Yu's hand. Falling down, he smiled and looked at his younger brother who had been with him for twelve years, as if he had completed his last mission.
Chen Yu successfully climbed up the cliff cave according to what Chen Fei said, and shouted downward: "Brother." ”
When a person is dying, various fragments of his life will be recalled in his mind.
......
"Brother, what is a swordsman?" asked a young boy who was immature and timid, sitting on the ground.
"Swordsmen, those are great people, they are really strong men. I'm going to be a swordsman too. The other swarthy boy said with a look of relief.
"Brother, I, I also want to be strong. ”
......
"Chen Yu, I thought of our chivalrous name, called Fengxian Shuangxiong. Look, this is my peerless weapon. The swarthy boy raised a wooden sword that was no more than thirty inches old and pointed to the sky.
"Brother, where is my divine soldier?" said the immature boy as he looked directly at the wooden sword.
"The next time I ask my dad for wood, I'll make it for you. The swarthy boy said as he touched the young boy's head.
"Well, I can be a swordsman too. The young boy said excitedly, his eyes full of infinite longing for the future.
......
Farewell, my brother. Chen Fei closed his eyes and walked towards the end of his life.
