If you can’t get along, you can come back and farm with me, the entire land of Linlang Mountain belongs to my family!”

Sang Yu smiled and said, "Okay!"

Every day after that, apart from chasing spiritual energy, Sang Yu just farmed and watered the fields, and everything was as usual.And Zhuang Xiaomiao couldn't find anyone for two or three hours every day. At first, he wandered around the mountains, and then wandered around the river.Sang Yu thought that children would be playful, so he ignored him.On the afternoon of the fourth day, Sang Yu chopped and piled up enough firewood for Zhuang Xiaomiao and his grandfather to burn for half a year. Zhuang Xiaomiao jumped out from nowhere and dragged him to the river.

Sang Yu saw by the river that Zhuang Xiaomiao had dug up a bunch of black and dark fruits covered in soil, each of which was only as big as an egg on the index finger. Zhuang Xiaomiao washed those small fruits with the river water and stuffed them into his hand excitedly, saying : "Sweet! This is sweet! You eat!"

Sang Yu tasted one dubiously, it was moist and sweet, with a little fragrance.He looked up with a bright smile: "It's so sweet! It's delicious!" Zhuang Xiaomiao also smiled: "This is called ground pomegranate, which grows in the wild. Its stems and leaves are hard to find on the ground. Found it on the side!"

"You were looking for this when you were away these two days." Sang Yu asked him.

"Hmm! It's a pity that I only found this spot. I searched on the mountain and couldn't find it." Zhuang Xiaomiao washed another handful of pomegranates and handed them to him. The washed pomegranates were reddish, like the skin color of a baby.

Sang Yu felt something sour in his heart: "You don't have to do this, although I like sweets, I won't die if I don't eat them."

Zhuang Xiaomiao raised her head and said, "I want to apologize to you... I shouldn't have tried to hurt you... You are a good person, a very good person..." His voice became softer and his head became smaller and smaller. The lower, Sang Yu pulled him over and sat down by the river, he stroked his hairy head and said: "I have forgiven you, I saw you cry when you gestured on me, I know you are not sincere If you want to harm me, you won't really have the heart to do it..."

"No! At that time, I really wanted to cut open your body and take your inner alchemy...I'm sorry." Zhuang Xiaomiao's eyes were filled with steam.

He paused, and then told Sang Yu a story.

At the beginning of the story, Zhuang Xiaomiao has a father, a mother, a grandfather, and an older brother named Gu Xiaohe.Zhuang Xiaomiao and Gu Xiaohe's father is Zhuang Ting, the patriarch of the Chiyanhu clan in Linlang Mountain.Like Zhuang Xiaomiao, he was born with a disability and has no spiritual power, but he is knowledgeable, kind and virtuous, and his clansmen are convinced.At that time, Linlang Mountain was still a crowded and peaceful place.

The change happened ten years ago. Zhuang Ting had an old friend named Ning Ge, who was the national teacher of Yaoyu. Once he came to Linlang Mountain to visit Zhuang Ting. After staying for a few days, he learned that the Yaohuang passed away suddenly in Fengdu.Before Ning Ge returned to Fengdu, he entrusted to his close friend a strange book he got from overseas some time ago, and this book was "Ling Fei Jing".After he bid farewell to Zhuang Ting and returned to the capital Fengdu, he was murdered by his villain Wen Renyue.At that time, the Demon Emperor had passed away, and Wen Renyue assisted the third prince, He Lianjing, to kill the national teacher and the prince to seize the throne, so after Helianjing ascended the throne, Wen Renyue naturally became the new national teacher. He also heard that Ning Ge had won the With a strange book, he traced the whereabouts of the "Lingfei Jing" to Linlang Mountain.But after Zhuang Ting heard that his friend was killed, he knew that sooner or later Wenren would come to grab the "Ling Fei Jing", so he immediately dismissed all the clansmen and told them to go as far away as possible and never come back.Only Zhuang Xiaomiao's family had no time to leave, so when Wen Renyue arrived at Linlang Mountain, the only people he saw were Zhuang Xiaomiao's family, old and weak, women and children.

Zhuang Ting only said that he knew that Wenren would come to grab the books, so he set it on fire, but Wenren couldn't believe it. He thought that Zhuang Ting must have handed over the "Lingfei Jing" to his tribe, so he arrested Zhuang Xiaomiao's parents. Waking up, the two who could not bear the humiliation quickly committed suicide.The more Wenren worried that the remaining chips would commit suicide, he dared not use force on the remaining three. He cast an earth-bound curse on their family, turning Zhuang Xiaomiao, grandpa, and grandson into earth-bound demons, and took Linlang Mountain as a prison. Imprison their family for life, and release a message to let the tribe bring the "Ling Fei Jing" in exchange.

But what he didn't know was that the "Ling Fei Jing" never left Linlang Mountain from the beginning to the end, and he didn't wait long before leaving and going back to Fengdu.Perhaps it was because Wen Renyue became a teacher of the state and found that he still wanted wind and rain without any strange books, and he did not continue to track down the whereabouts of the "Ling Fei Jing" in the past ten years.

As for Zhuang Xiaomiao, grandpa and grandson, in this corner forgotten by everyone, they were trapped for ten years.

Sang Yu's eyes were heavy, and he looked around. The wild awns by the river shone with a warm yellow halo in the evening light. Linlang Mountain was lush with vegetation. This small col with a radius of less than two or three miles, he thought it was His home turned out to be a prison from which he could never get out.

No wonder he always sits on the locust tree and looks into the distance in a daze,

No wonder he could only shake his head when he told him to go to town, obviously desperate for it,

No wonder his eyes light up even after eating the most common piece of mung bean cake,

……

In the past ten years, he has been able to see the opposite mountain, which is clearly close in front of his eyes, but he can never walk through it. In this narrow and deserted world, there is no freedom and no fun. Today repeats yesterday’s dryness, day after day. Day after year.

Sang Yu's Adam's apple twitched, and Zhuang Xiaomiao continued to talk: "It was okay at the beginning, but I couldn't go anywhere. Fortunately, my brother is different from me. He is very talented. Grandpa Said that when my brother grows up, he will definitely help us break the curse and avenge our parents. Like the fireflies you showed me before, my brother also made it for me... I know that my brother can do it, he is very good ..."

It's a pity that such an excellent brother is gone.

In the summer three years ago, Zhuang Xiaomiao quarreled with his elder brother Gu Xiaohe, and sat by the river all afternoon without going home.He listened to the cicadas singing all afternoon, and when he saw Zhuang Xiaohe come out to coax him back in the evening, he wanted to make his brother feel guilty, so he put his small satchel by the river and jumped into the water.

Zhuang Xiaomiao choked on the water, but Zhuang Xiaohe, who immediately jumped into the river when he heard the sound, lifted him to the bank, but when he realized it, he saw that his brother had already been swept away by the river.

The earth-bound demon will quickly lose its spiritual power and die when it leaves its bondage. Zhuang Xiaomiao saw Zhuang Xiaohe struggling to swim to the shore, but the current pushed him to the boundary of another mountain. It gradually froze as if it had been drained, and then sank into the river without a single splash.

After Zhuang Xiaohe's death, Zhuang Xiaomiao changed from a flying and jumping Zhuang Xiaomiao to a quiet and obedient Zhuang Xiaomiao.

Although grandpa didn't have the heart to blame him even a word, he knew that his brother was killed by him.At first he could only blame himself, but then he thought of Wen Renyue, if he hadn't turned his brother into a ground bondage demon, his brother would have the strength to swim ashore.

He wants revenge.

After this idea came into being, it’s not that he didn’t think about the risky method of poaching other people’s inner alchemy. Although Linlang Mountain is remote, there will occasionally be two or three lost monsters passing by every year, but whenever he wants to make a move, he thinks of this one in front of him. People also have parents, he held back.

Later, he found out that his grandfather was ill. In fact, his grandfather had always been very ill, but he was always good at hiding his physical condition so that his grandson would not worry.When Zhuang Xiaomiao found out that his grandpa was coughing up blood, he understood that no matter what happened to his grandpa, he was powerless to stay in this deserted village.

He thought that if he had inner alchemy, he would practice hard, break through the spell, take grandpa to see a doctor, and avenge the whole family.

So when he saw Sang Yu, Zhuang Xiaomiao was really murderous. He knew that if Zhuang Xiaohe was alive, he would definitely not agree, but he was already willing to do anything, even if he might die, even if he had to bear a serious crime, even if My heart is also trembling.

He has only one family member left, and he can't lose any more.

"So will you forgive me?" Zhuang Xiaomiao wiped her eyes, raised her head but her eyes were still wet.

Sang Yu touched his head and looked into the distance with complicated eyes: "Forgive me, I have forgiven you a long time ago... It's just... It's just that I don't know what to say to reduce your pain."

"I don't feel bad anymore, as long as grandpa is healthy, I won't take revenge. My father, mother and elder brother will be angry if I take other people's life for my grievance." His ice blue eyes flickered.

"After I'm gone, you have to take good care of yourself."

"Well, take care of yourself too."

After Sang Yu left, Zhuang Xiaomiao still lived a life of growing vegetables every day. Half a year later, a man in black came to Linlang Mountain. He thought he was going the wrong way again, but when the man saw him, he asked, "Excuse me?" Are you Mr. Zhuang Xiaomiao Zhuang?"

The man brought a lot of beads and relics, and he took out the spiritual power inside and gave them to Zhuang Xiaomiao.The magic tools of the monks have the most humble and peaceful spiritual power, and the spiritual power contained in this pile of magic tools is extremely pure.After a few days, Sang Yu will take shape.But he thought: so what if he can change form, anyway, no one can see it.

The grass and trees on Linlang Mountain turned from green to yellow, and the time passed several times in spring and autumn. Three years later, Zhuang Xiaomiao had also grown into a teenager.One day when he was sitting on a locust tree eating tomatoes, a white snowbird flew over and perched next to him. He saw a strip of cloth tied to its feet, so he untied it and saw that there were only four words on it: The curse has been remove.

Only after Zhuang Xiaomiao left Linlang Mountain did he realize that the outside world was in chaos. He heard that the national teacher Wen Renyue had been killed, and that the third prince who had been killed in the previous dynasty had a son named He Lianyang who survived and was attacking He Lian Jing, I heard that there is a general who is actually a blue wolf next to He Lian Yang.

Zhuang Xiaomiao didn't pay much attention to the war. Although there was war in the north, the south was still relatively stable. He and his grandfather went to Wuling City to watch the Lantern Festival. The brightly lit streets were crowded with tourists.They sold the prayer beads brought by the man three years ago. Although the spiritual power was drained, the beads were made of pearls and jade, and they were all very valuable.Zhuang Xiaomiao bought a Kongming lantern for himself and his grandfather.Walking on the road full of laughter and lanterns, he breathed the free air, looked at the smiling grandpa and thought: In the rest of my life, I must accompany my grandpa to go out and see more, to see this vast world.

What Zhuang Xiaomiao didn't know was that the military adviser next to Helian Yang was Sang Yu, and after leaving Linlang Mountain, he went to the rebel army under Helian Yang's banner.When he went to the battlefield, he realized that he had become very strong, so strong that one person could fight against thousands of troops, and he was quickly promoted to the position of general.He exchanged the trophies he obtained on the battlefield for magical artifacts with mild spiritual power and asked his subordinates to bring them back to Linlang Mountain, and then tried every means to find a way to break the earth-binding curse.

The earth-bound demon is imprisoned by the caster using his own spiritual power to mobilize the spiritual power of the earth. There are only two ways to break free: one is that the earth-bound demon's own spiritual power is strong enough to compete with the spiritual power of the earth, Then the curse will not be able to restrain him.In addition, when the caster dies, after his spiritual power dissipates, the earth will no longer restrain the cursed demon.

However, Wenren is farther away in the imperial palace of Fengdu, and as Helian Yang's general, he is heavily guarded by Helian Jing, even if he enters Fengdu, he will not be able to enter the imperial palace.

Fortunately, Wen Renyue was not a loyal courtier, when he saw He Lianyang's turbulent journey, he began to waver his position.He asked his subordinates to bring a secret letter to Helian Yang's camp, saying that he was willing to surrender, and cooperate with Helian Yang internally and externally to disintegrate Helian Jing's power.He Lianyang is naturally happy, if there are more people, he can spend a lot less on this war.

And Sang Yu knew that if Wen Renyue really joined He Lianyang's army, he would never have any chance to kill him again.

So he asked He Lianyang to write a letter to invite Wen Renyue for an interview to test his sincerity, He Lian Yang agreed, and Wen Renyue really came after seven days.But he was intercepted by Sang Yu without seeing Helian Yang's camp, and Sang Yu killed him on the spot.Then Sang Yu put on a hat in front of He Lianyang who intended to assassinate someone with a malicious intention.This is the first time he lied to Helian Yang.Helian Yang had doubts in his heart, but it was meaningless to pursue these when employing people, so the matter was settled.

He thought: This time, that little fox can finally go to the Lantern Festival he wants to see, with green mountains and clear water, high sky and wide sea, he can go wherever he wants.

Later, Sang Yu led the army to capture Fengdu and killed Helian Jing.After Helian Yang ascended the throne, he was named the general of the town, with one man under ten thousand.

The life of being an official is much more leisurely than the life of fighting, but he soon discovered that this kind of life was not the same as what he pursued.He is too strong, so strong that even Helian Yang is afraid of him.Everyone was afraid of him, but wanted to win him over, and there was no sincerity under the smile.After Helian Yang's two children were born, the courtiers were all faced with the problem of standing in line. He didn't want to stand up to anyone, but the intricacies of power exhausted him physically and mentally. Every day, he felt very tired from the criss-crossing and insignificance.

He suddenly didn't want to be a great general anymore. He also had the great wish of helping the world. After getting the "Ling Fei Jing", he thought he had the power to realize this great wish, but now he realized that he didn't.The imperial court is like a body of water, some people can go in like a fish in water, but he just finds it difficult to move an inch.

Sang Yu asked He Lianyang for permission to resign. A man like him who can defeat thousands of troops will be a rare help in troubled times, but it will only be a threat when the world is peaceful, so He Lian Yang politely reserved a few words and it was all right.

Sang Yu didn't receive Helian Yang's reward, and left Fengdu immediately. He didn't know where he could go, so he wanted to wander around for a while, so that the world could find a place for him.He thought that Zhuang Xiaomiao would definitely not be in Linlang Mountain anymore, it was too remote, although in his opinion Linlang Mountain was beautiful and peaceful, but after Zhuang Xiaomiao was free and saw the prosperity, it would be hard for him to stay anymore Bar.

However, as soon as he set foot on the land in the south, he still involuntarily walked in the direction of Linlang Mountain.The road to Linlang Mountain was still so quiet, the wind in the evening of June was as gentle as water, the sunset was about to burn, and the grass and trees were still there, as if he had never left in the past six years.

He looked at the pumpkin seedlings with green leaves crawling in the field next to the house, and several fields were newly opened on the nearby hillside. The leaves of sweet potatoes were crowded together, and there were several straight rows of corn.

Mmm...it's all sweet.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled into a slight smile.

A boy in red was sitting high on a locust tree with a small crumpled bag on his shoulders. His whole body was immersed in the warm yellow sunset light. His ice-blue pupils looked at groups of homing birds on the distant mountain. Quietly nibbling the tomato in his hand.

After seeing the person coming, his delicate eyebrows froze for a moment, and then melted into a bright smile.

"I knew you wouldn't be able to hang out outside sooner or later."

"Well, I'm back."

The author has something to say: This is my first time writing a novel, eh!Worth commemorating ah ha ha ha!
