On the top of a mountain, there is a tomb.
On the smooth tombstone is written "The Tomb of Xiao Mumu".
This carpenter with little education felt like he was a gift from God when he picked up such a child.
In order to name the child, he specially carried several cubes of meat to the local scholar's home and asked him to name him.
Since he was born in the Year of the Tiger, the old carpenter hoped that this child would have a great future.
The scholar named him "Zifeng".
The clouds follow the dragon and the wind follows the tiger.
Sometimes, people will put the word "zi" after their name to express respect for seniors in a certain field. This also means that they hope that the child can make great achievements on a certain road.
In this way, the old carpenter left the scholar's home happily, muttering the name all the time.
While chanting, he teased the infant child.
A few years ago, the old carpenter's end was approaching. I wonder what happened? Unexpectedly, by some strange combination of circumstances, he told him that Xiao Zifeng had been picked up.
This is a secret that he has not told for more than ten years.
But he said it at the last moment, maybe because he was about to die and didn't want to take this secret into the coffin.
It's also possible that he didn't want Xiao Zifeng to spend most of his life alone like him, so that he could have someone to miss him or find his family in the future.
Xiao Zifeng took a jar of rice wine and poured a glass for the old carpenter and a glass for himself.
Xiao Zifeng usually doesn't like to drink, and the only thing that can make him take a few sips is rice wine.
Rice wine is sweet, not too strong, and has a good taste. It is not like other wines that can burn your throat.
"Dad, after seeing you this time, I probably won't come again for a long time."
"If there really is a next life, you will be reincarnated in my world..."
"There must be a next life. After all, I have one. It's easier to get along in my world than in this world. I don't want to say how rich I am, but I can have fish and meat for every meal. Under normal circumstances, I can do that."
"In addition, you are also very diligent. If you find something to do, you should be able to live a good life."
When Xiao Zifeng was young, he often listened to the old carpenter talking about the past.
The old carpenter had a wife before and had children and a younger brother.
It's just that when he fled during the famine, he was the only one who survived.
In his world, he wouldn't be so lonely.
Xiao Zifeng smiled. Looking down from here, he could have a panoramic view of the entire Jubei City.
This land was specially chosen by him. If Dad still has some memories, he can see Jubei City without going over the mountains.
In the early morning, the first ray of sunshine shines on the top of the mountain.
A mask appeared out of thin air in Xiao Zifeng's hand. The background color of the mask was very simple, just black and white. The extremely simple black and white colors formed a complex pattern.
Xiao Zifeng put the mask on his face, and a black robe suddenly appeared on his body, and an indescribable strong aura burst out.
[Mask of the Strong (a mask that makes you look strong when worn, with the accompanying effect: Whisper of the Strong. Does not increase any attack power.)]
Taking off the Fei Gong on his back, the Fei Gong in the form of a wooden box suddenly changed and turned into a huge wooden Suzaku.
…………
Inside the city.
Everyone was busy and busy, and a large number of residents gathered in the middle of Jubei City.
A large number of traps were created on the road leading to the center of the city. Once the city gate is breached, these traps will be triggered.
At the same time, all the residents near the city wall were evacuated, and kerosene was prepared in the houses near the city wall.
When the northern barbarians enter the city in large numbers, these fire oil will be ignited.
The residents and soldiers in the city will begin the final battle against the trapped beasts.
The inhabitants of the city knew that surrender was impossible.
They are all people who have lived in northern Xinjiang for many years and know the cruel habits of the northern barbarians. Ordinary people have no value to the northern barbarians.
There is still a joy in dying on the battlefield, but if you surrender, you will only suffer endless abuse.
It can be said that most people in the city are ready to die.
Everyone looked tense.
Sun Ping had been making arrangements on the city wall. He knew that the Northern Barbarians were coming soon.
…
As the sun set, a line of torrent appeared on the horizon, and a strong vibration could be felt on the ground.
Sun Ping looked at the endless torrent.
"coming."
One hundred thousand Northern Barbarian troops approached the city.
In this cold winter, Sun Ping's hands were covered with sweat.
The other party did not attack immediately, but a pair of northern barbarians came to the city gate with a group of people wearing the clothes of Zhou officials.
Zhang Xuanqing, who led others to escape yesterday, was also among them.
Zhang Xuanqing is no longer as dignified as before, with messy hair and a frightened face.
Pushed by the northern barbarians, he walked slowly to the city gate.
"Sun Chengshou, it's me!"
He forced a smile and shouted to Sun Ping on the city gate.
"The Northern Barbarians said that as long as you surrender, you will still be the city guard here, and they will also give you a lot of jewelry and beautiful women."
"Sun Chengshou, there are only a few thousand soldiers in total, you can't defend it..."
A sharp arrow struck from the city wall and passed through Zhang Xuanqing's neck.
Blood spurted out, and Zhang Xuanqing could no longer speak.
This arrow has shown his attitude.
Tagutor said to a young man next to him: "I told you, they will not surrender. This tactic will not be effective against them."
"When we fight further south, you may be able to try this method, but it won't work in northern Xinjiang."
"Except for officials transferred from other places, most of the generals, soldiers, and people here would rather die than surrender."
"The highest respect for these people is to slaughter them all."
Genano, who was wearing a white armor and with a delicate face, replied respectfully: "I thought it was too simple."
After Tagutor saw what the young man in front of him had learned, he was preparing for the army to attack...
"I'm so lucky. Just after I came out of seclusion, I met an army of 100,000 people who tried my sword on me."
A arrogant voice came, with a tone of arrogance and contempt for the 100,000-strong army.
And the strange thing about these words is that everyone present can hear them.
Including the entire residents of Jubei City.
An old man hidden in the army raised his head. The voice was not loud, but it was heard by everyone. This kind of strength is not simple...
A giant bird appeared in the sky and slowly lowered.
After falling to a certain height, people discovered that this giant bird was actually made entirely of wood.
And on top of this giant bird stood a figure wearing a black robe and a mask.
With the appearance of this figure, a terrifying aura was released.
Mysterious and powerful, this is everyone's first impression when they see this man.
The old man hiding in the army looked at the man in black robe who appeared. He could only see that the opponent was very strong, but he could not see what level he was in.
