This young man's mood has never calmed down since he got the letter. His appearance and mental state are completely different from those half a month ago. The sharpness in his eyes was gone, and most of his body was covered with black and yellow bandages. His self-confidence was gone, and the glory of his family was gone. He held the letter addressed to the person he least wanted to see, With no direction in his eyes, he sat on a small boat in despair and floated into the sea. He even wanted to meet the evil ghosts of the Doranrak Pirates in the ocean. Even if he was swallowed by them, he did not want to lose this seal. The tinder letter was delivered to the man's hand. /p
He is Li Shu, a fifteen-year-old boy "Zhurong's son". /p
During the war in the Tatar Kingdom, the "Sons of Zhurong" and the Doranrak Pirates had another fierce battle on the sea. To be precise, it was a lure and surprise attack carefully planned by Zhiqing, and the result was disastrous. As you can imagine, the "Son of Zhu Rong" was defeated again, and the price was heavy. After this battle, the "Son of Zhu Rong" no longer has the ability to fight against the Dorarak Pirates, and it is even unable to cope with the "big war" that may be coming in the sea. . /p
Zhiqing is a smart woman, with a strategy that is as good as that of "Lucky" Bing Tiandu. It is impossible for her not to know what a bad decision it is to start a war with the Doranrak Pirates at sea, but she really has no choice. gone. Because her husband, Li Sheng, the patriarch of the "Son of Zhu Rong", was turned into an evil spirit by the medical girl Ziye. Zhiqing could dream of Li Sheng's face every night. They looked at each other across the sea, and every time they were about to touch each other, the dream disappeared. The woman who was crying didn't know what it meant to be an evil spirit. Everything she did was to bring her husband home. Little did she know that Li Sheng had no chance of landing on land. /p
She may have emptied all her thoughts, and after a haggard night, she wrote a tinder letter. When she handed the letter into Li Shu's hands, she fell, as if the entire "Zhurong's Son" had fallen. , Tiangongdou, which was one of the top three in strength in the sea area not long ago, has been destroyed as a dynasty. /p
Li Shu's mind was blank from the moment he received the letter to when he went out to sea. He didn't even pay attention to Zhi Qier's tearful farewell. The boat drifted wantonly with the waves. Li Shu's lips soon became dry and cracked under the scorching sun. He lay down, his head still hitting the side of the boat from time to time. /p
The white clouds in his eyes were shaking. Under his blurred vision, Li Shu's ears could faintly hear a "dang-dang-dang-dang" knocking sound. In his eyes, the white clouds turned into balls of gold coins, and the waves also turned into With the gold coins, the blue sea also changed to gold, clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang, he could not hear other sounds, he opened his lips in the dark, but all he made was a silent shout, just like him Struggling and running among endless gold coins that day, the flames saved him time and time again, but the gold coins also swallowed him up again and again. When he finally saw the world outside of gold, the person who saved him had perished in the gold coins. /p
"I" Li Shu's throat was extremely dry, but he remained indifferent. His face was peeling due to exposure to the sun, and there was no sparkle in his eyes. What value did he have, and was he worthy of five compatriots dying to save him? Forget it, let this ship drift. It would be better if he could meet the Dorarak Pirates, and he would also die. This is the result that should have been. /p
But the boat finally landed on the shore. Li Shu climbed out of the boat as if he had resigned himself to his fate, and buried his face in the wet sand. Half an hour later, he stood up like a man in exhaustion, then bent down again, struggling to face the He was walking forward, not knowing where his target was. He was just moving based on instinct. He might want to swallow the tinder letter or bury it on the beach. /p
"My son - you go -"/p
Li Shu trembled all over. He was startled suddenly, his eyes turned black, and he looked up and fell down. What gradually emerged in the darkness were pictures of blooming blood flowers. He saw his uncles and brothers again, They were hit by iron-green cannonballs, and each body was broken into thousands of pieces, just like scattered flower petals, red, white, black, and yellow. /p
"My son - run away -" Li Shu saw a man with his back turned to him. The man's body had never been so short. Maybe it was because the waves in front of him were too huge. That side was as big as a palm. How can the flames block the waves as high as the sky? My father died, and he died to save himself. /p
Li Shu felt that life was absurd. Every picture he saw seemed to be a sentence and punishment for him. He could not numb it, but he could not escape the endless sea of suffering. He thought, forget it, let him go Leave the letter in the hands of that person. After completing this task, you can die, or live a good life, hide in a place without war, live to be a hundred years old or even longer, and finish the life of the dead person. . /p
He woke up, but he still couldn't raise his head and didn't dare to look straight ahead. He fell down the ravine and hit the stone wall. He didn't know where he was walking. His body was covered with scratches and blood seeped out of the bandages. , but he couldn't feel the pain, his body leaned forward, his lips were chapped, and his whole body was relying on his breath, gradually becoming a walking zombie. /p
A burly nine-foot overlord once flew beside him. The overlord was carrying his dying brother on his back, almost suffocating with anxiety. /p
A masked woman once passed by him. The woman could hear people's voices, but could not get any message from Li Shu's heart. The woman was Mao Bai. She glanced at Li Shu a few more times and sighed regretfully, wondering what kind of blow had made this young man so desperate. /p
Li Shu walked in this "blank world" and couldn't see anything else except the tinder letter held in his hands. /p
Finally, he stopped walking. His stop was instinctive. A pair of feet appeared in his blank sight. Li Shu did not raise his head. He did not know who the person was, but silently raised his hand and held up the tinder letter. . /p
That person was Mu Ziyun, and their meeting was not accidental. Because Li Shu lost his mind, the Fanzhi fire he carried became his "instinct". Fanzhi yearned for, or was attracted by, the higher-level flames. Attracted, he led Li Shu across the sea, through the mountains, and came to Mu Ziyun. /p
Li Shu was like a dwarf in front of Mu Ziyun, and their auras were clearly divided into yin and yang. /p
When Mu Ziyun received the tinder letter from Li Shu in surprise, Li Shu's legs could no longer support him. He knelt on the ground and knocked his head into the soil. /p
"What's wrong?" Lingdang slowly walked to Mu Ziyun, put her head on his shoulder, and read the letter. /p
Mu Ziyun saw a bit of tinder on the envelope, hesitated for a while, snapped his fingers, blew a little spark, and the tinder burned. Soon, the entire letter was burned to ashes, and the real message hidden in it was also burned. The energy condensed to form a brand new yellow page, which fell back into Mu Ziyun's hands. /p
Muziyun and Lingdang read the contents of the letter at the same time. Muziyun closed his eyes and Lingdang was stunned for a while, then turned around and said to everyone: "Come and take a look, it's a letter sent by the 'Son of Zhu Rong'."/p
