Chapter 1 Cheng Yixue
A dynasty can never stand on this Shadow Continent for tens of thousands of years! After nearly hundreds of years of war, the Shadow Continent has not been completely unified. It's just that it has been divided into several parts by dozens of countries. However, in the eyes of mortals, every empire is also infinite, and even if it takes a lifetime, it will not be able to pass through all the regions of the country where it is located! And the Song Kingdom is the most inconspicuous of all the countries in the Shadow Continent.
Although the Song State was not large, it still developed in an orderly and orderly direction! All this is due to the great efforts of Song Chengcheng, the monarch of the Song Kingdom, to make the country prosperous and care for the people's livelihood. Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Song Chengcheng is a good emperor who no one can match. After several years of development, the Song Kingdom finally became strong and the people were rich, and all kinds of caravans could be seen everywhere on the streets, and the land of farming was even more water conservancy, which could really be said to be fertile land all over the wilderness! And the good name and majesty of Song Chengcheng were gradually consolidated, and what he did was also spread all over the streets and alleys, becoming a hot topic of conversation after tea and dinner.
In the frost-free county in the southern part of the Song Kingdom, the hot weather made it difficult for everyone to work hard, and this also led to the liveliness of some inns in the county. I saw that in a civil loft-style building with a huge plaque of "Yuelai Inn", there were endless words:
"Do you know the way? Fengle County in the north flooded half a month ago, and many people began to come to our side," I saw a middle-aged man in his 40s, who was dressed in a coarse black and white shirt, half-covered with dark and fat chest muscles, and arms with his sleeves folded, carrying half a pot of wine, and said inarticulately.
"Is it true? Zhang Lao Liu, everyone here knows that your words are not accurate, and the money owed to the widow of the Chen family has not been repaid until now. The middle-aged man with crow's feet in the corners of his eyes next to him said angrily and mockingly, and caused a burst of laughter from the other people in the inn.
"What do you know? This is what my cousin who was a catcher in Liuhe Town told me in a letter. The letter also said that in order to better settle them, the monarch had already sent official documents to various state capitals, so that the local trading houses, dart bureaus, and martial arts sects could recruit and hire them, and they could not undermine the local public order! He seemed pretty sure that people would believe him.
"So, now these Jianghu sects have begun to recruit disciples extensively?" Suddenly, only a somewhat immature and hoarse voice suddenly appeared.
When they turned around, they saw a boy of about twelve or thirteen years old sitting in an inconspicuous corner, with long eyebrows and clear eyes, and fair skin, but his clothes were tattered, and his body was stained with a lot of mud, and his haggard face could not hide his exhaustion at all. In the face of everyone's eyes, although he tried his best to hide it, it was so unnatural. Only those firm eyes stared at Zhang Lao Liu's inquiring gaze.
Zhang Lao Liu felt inexplicably panicked in his heart, hurriedly reacted, and arched his hand towards the young man and asked, "Dare to ask the little brother, Gao's surname, I don't know what is the matter?"
"Oh, my name is Cheng Yixue, I want to learn martial arts, darts!"
"Hahaha, little brother, you asked me to be the right person, as far as I know, the Tianfeng Gang of the Jianghu Gate Sect of Hanxin Mountain, Tianfeng County, which is about a month away from us, is recruiting people, there are many people of your age! ”
What Zhang Lao Liu didn't notice was that when he said that his arrival was clear, Cheng Yixue's face twitched unnaturally.
"How about it, little brother, do you want to go, I can recommend you to go, you can go."
"Zhang Laoliu, I advise you not to meddle in your affairs, be careful of getting into trouble" Before Zhang Laoliu finished speaking, a middle-aged man next to him who had just mocked Zhang Laoliu suddenly said...,
"Hehe, what else can happen, do you think that everyone else is like you, timid and afraid, and nothing can be accomplished" Zhang Laoliu retorted.
"You, the imperial prince Sima Zhuo of the current dynasty has been punished by the Nine Clans, hmph, don't blame me for not reminding you when the time comes!The middle-aged man snorted angrily!
"You don't have to worry about this, little brother, do you want to go?
"Brother Xie Luxie, I'll consider this" Cheng Yixue thanked him, and walked out of the inn quickly, leaving only Zhang Laoliu's puzzled eyes.
Staring at the scorching sun, a young man in ragged clothes was walking slowly on the street, only to see his hands clenched tightly, fresh blood flowing out along the grip marks! Bean-sized beads of sweat slowly trickled down his forehead, soaking his long black hair, covering his original face. If you can see his face clearly, you will find that this young man is Cheng Yixue who has just walked out of the Yuelai Inn!
At this time, his eyes were glazed, and the words he heard in the inn made him recall the long-sealed memories in his heart!
Originally, he was not surnamed Cheng, and the surname Cheng was also changed by him when he was forced to avoid the imperial court. Cheng Yixue only felt a sense of weakness all over her body when she thought of her current situation. He was originally Sima Yixue, the only son of the imperial prince of the dynasty, but just three months ago, his father was suddenly accused of corruption and bribery, and embezzled the silver taels that were supposed to build water conservancy in Fengle County, resulting in flooding in Fengle County and the displacement of the people.
When the monarch of the dynasty, Song Chengcheng, heard this, he was furious and ordered Sima Zhuo to punish the nine clans, and the whole country of Song was shocked! In order to protect the rest of his son, Sima Zhuo ordered his henchmen to protect Cheng Yixue and escape. Cheng Yixue's other family members, including her father, were all killed by her!
In the process of escaping, Cheng Yixue's father and mortal henchmen were also killed one after another in order to cover Cheng Yixue's smooth escape. And Cheng Yixue has been in Wushuang County for half a month now, and she lives by begging every day.
Now Cheng Yixue can really be said to have no relatives and no neighbors! In fact, his current mood is also extremely contradictory. When he and his father met for the last time, his father told him that he was wronged and didn't want Cheng Yixue to do anything for him, and only hoped that Cheng Yixue could live a peaceful life. However, providence made people, and on the way to escape, due to an accident, he learned of the fact that his father had embezzled and accepted bribes.
I only remember that it was a day after extreme pursuit, there were only three of my father's henchmen left, and I spent the night in a dilapidated temple, and I had already laid down early, and the conversation of my father's henchmen completely shocked Cheng Yixue! At that moment, there was only one voice in his head:
His father and Fengle County Shou jointly embezzled and took bribes! At a young age, he could hardly accept this cruel fact!
Cheng Yixue walked on the street in such a daze, a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, facing the death of the entire family, but he was still living in the world, he could no longer find his goal in life. The only thing that could support him to live was his father's dying words. And he was quite surprised that he could still live in the world now, and the pursuers of the imperial court did not come to chase him, could it be that Song Chengcheng let himself go? However, these questions are not now that can be solved? In short, we should be glad that it is indeed the Ji people who can survive such a chase and kill.
However, problems still come one after another, although his life has been saved now, but where should he go from the problems he is facing? He still has to consider his own livelihood security, and this has become a problem that Cheng Yixue must consider solving at present! Cheng Yixue knows in his heart that he cannot avenge his father, because he is indeed corrupt and bribery, and he just wants to follow his father's last wishes and find something to do for the rest of his life!
Cheng Yixue did not blame his father, after all, his father was not a saint, who could not be moved in the face of millions of gold and silver? Father is indeed not a good official, but he is definitely a benevolent father. In Cheng Yixue's memory, his father taught him to be a true self, not to mention that his father did his best at the worst, at least he also tried not to leave a shadow in his later life. It is precisely because of her father's teaching that Cheng Yixue has been persistent, thoughtful, and decisive since she was a child. These are some of the reasons why he is more mature than his peers...,
Just as Cheng Yixue's thoughts were turning around, and she was thinking about Zhang Laoliu's suggestion at Yuelai Inn, suddenly, she only felt that her body was already wet, and she retracted her thoughts, only to see that the weather that was still the red sun just now was now pouring rain, leaving only the hurried footsteps and vague figures of pedestrians on the road!
Cheng Yixue smiled self-deprecatingly, and without hesitation, she quickly ran towards a mountain outside the city!
Wushuang County, Bai Mountain Slope, here is not too eye-catching place, only because the mountain jungle is lush, therefore, people who come here to cut wages are always in an endless stream, for a long time, people built a mountain temple on the mountain, one is for people to come and go to rest, and the other is to worship the mountain god to pray for good weather every year. This comes and goes, and on weekdays, there are some people in the mountain temple who stay here for a short time!
However, the mountain temple, which used to be relatively cold, was lively because of a rainstorm today!
On the slope of Kashiwa Mountain, a lonely temple about four feet in circumference sits on it, and the downpour has splashed on the blue-gray roof tiles. The four corners of the house hang up to the corners of the curtains, and everything is natural and simple and generous. From a distance, you will always see people entering it from time to time.
At this moment, about forty or fifty people were gathered in the mountain temple, scattered in all corners of this small ancient temple. Looking at its decoration, the vast majority of people are civilians in the county. From time to time, everyone talked to each other, and occasionally there was abuse and laughter. The crowd did not notice in a nondescript corner. There was a middle-aged man and a little girl of eight or nine years old who were listening seriously, without any expression on their faces. However, if you look closely, you can always see a hint of worry in the middle-aged man. Just when everyone was silent, there was a faint sound of rapid breathing and heavy footsteps
