Prologue
The night is dark and the mountains are high, and the wind in the mountain forest howls coldly. The rustling of the leaves in the wind seems to tell that this is an unquiet night.
After midnight, it was supposed to be quiet and gloomy. Suddenly a thick lightning flashed in the sky, followed by a loud "bang", and a panic sound suddenly sounded under the roots of a big tree on the slope.
"Son, are you afraid?" The woman stretched out her wrinkled hands, which had obviously been exposed to water for a long time, and touched the boy who was curled up with her under the roots of a big tree. His bangs were drooped by the wind and rain. But it didn't cover the indescribable sadness and sadness in those eyes.
Seeing the boy shaking his head sensibly, his bright eyes exuded hope and longing in the dark night, as if he was trying hard to cover up his thin body that was shivering from time to time because he was soaked all over.
The woman forced a smile, but the boy seemed to see through the sadness behind her smile.
"Mom, don't be sad, my sister and I will be safe!"
The woman felt sour in her heart and almost stopped crying again with sobs stuck in her throat. She nodded vigorously and held the boy tightly in her arms.
Looking up at the night sky, a drop of tears fell together with the rain, and my heart was full of resentment and unwillingness: God, why did you do this to me? What did I do wrong that you want to treat me like this?
A drop of water fell down the woman's pale cheek. The woman opened her eyes instantly, and her originally sad and angry eyes suddenly became frightened and nervous.
The woman carried the boy aside with her slender arms, carefully leaned her body into the rain and lay on the slope, carefully exposing half of her head and looking back.
Not far away, blazing torches were vaguely seen, and then a cry came, "Search carefully for orphans and widows, I don't believe you can't find them!"
"Mom, go quickly!"
Seeing the woman shrinking back under the tree root, the boy's childish voice suddenly sounded. The woman's body froze for a moment, and a bad premonition suddenly appeared in her heart.
"What's the matter, son?"
Seeing the woman's eager eyes, the boy blinked seriously, "Mom, if you go alone, I can lure them away like my sister!"
boom! The woman's mind suddenly seemed to be filled with thunder!
He is less than six years old? What is the reason that makes such a young child come up with the idea of drawing away the pursuers for his mother?
"Shh, don't talk. Mom will hold you and run. You will definitely escape!"
"Mother!"
Just as the woman was about to hug him, the boy's voice sounded again, "You can't run fast with me. I'll stay and hold them back. You run out to find dad, and then you and dad will save us!"
"Son!" The woman's nose became sore again, and her tears couldn't help but fall.
"Mom, you are the only one left now. Don't ever think about leaving mom again, okay?"
The boy seemed to understand the woman's sadness and helplessness, and nodded heavily!
"Mom, then carry me on your back, I can't run fast if you hold me!"
The woman didn't think much, turned around and squatted down.
But the little boy's eyes suddenly became determined. He didn't know when a stone two or three times larger than an average person's fist suddenly appeared in his hand. He gritted his teeth and hit the woman on the back of the head.
The woman's eyes were full of disbelief the moment before she fainted, but she still fell to the ground.
The boy quickly pushed the woman inside with great difficulty, and then peeled off the leaves to cover the woman's body. Seeing that no one was lying here in the dark night, the boy wiped the tears from his eyes and climbed up the slope with difficulty. , cautiously took a look at the fire not far away, and slid directly towards the other side of the slope.

Chapter 1 Hero saves beauty
Forest avenue, shaded by shrubs.
"drive!……"
A horse team quickly rushed through the forest. The leader of the man was wearing a black robe, and the rest of the people were all uniformed in black and gray warrior uniforms. Their hair was tied in a bun, their sleeves were wrapped around their feet, and Miao swords were hung on their waists. They were all cold and resolute, and looked very cool. neat.
"Ahead is Luoxia Villa. It looks like the fire is raging. Everyone should be alert!"
"yes!……"
As soon as the leader finished speaking, everyone's voices suddenly echoed through the forest.
As the raging fire ahead appeared in sight, the group saw two people not far ahead.
Just when they were less than a hundred steps away from the two of them, they saw clearly that an unconscious woman was being held by a man in Tsing Yi holding a sword in one hand and leaning against a stone. Then, the palm of his right hand was facing the woman's chest from a distance, as if It's like healing a woman's wounds.
As the leader pulled the reins, the horse instantly rose into the air, and the man seemed to make a slight leap, lightly tapping the horse's head and heart, and then jumped in front of the two people.
The man in black hurriedly and excitedly stepped forward and bowed, "Sir, it's you! When did you come down from the mountain?"
When the man heard this, he stopped his palm and said, "Let's not talk about it for now. I didn't expect you to come so quickly."
"We received a message from Young Master Peregrine Falcon in the early hours of the morning, and the city lord directly asked us to come galloping over on a bloody horse."
"Oh, a horse of sweat and blood travels thousands of miles in a day. You set off early in the morning. It is reasonable to arrive at this time."
The man in black looked at the woman leaning on the stone, who was obviously unconscious, and quickly asked: "Sir, is this woman...?"
Before the question could be asked, the man in green raised his hand to interrupt, "You need to let people take a look around first. Be sure not to let the fire leak out."
After everyone else who was traveling with the man in black followed the man in black's instructions and went to investigate, the man in black asked, "Sir, does the burning of Luoxia Villa have anything to do with her?"
The man in Tsing Yi was speechless, "Why do you think the burning of Luoxia Villa was related to her?"
"Um..." The man in black smiled meaningfully: "Is she just passing by? Is the young master just a hero saving the beauty? I just saw that the young master was really angry at her."
The man in Tsing Yi quickly turned his head and deliberately changed the topic, "When I arrived here, Luoxia Villa was already on fire. The strange thing was that there was not even a single animal in the village, let alone people. When I was about to investigate further, I found her Run this way in a hurry."
The man in black smiled again, "Young master has already investigated and deliberately sent them away. Do you have any orders?"
The man in green clothes looked at him pretending to be curious, and suddenly thought of something, "By the way, Uncle Wu, aren't you said to be the best in medical skills in Muyang City? You should show this girl first."
Although the man in green knew the man's intention, he shook his head and immediately went to check for his pulse, his expression gradually becoming serious.
After the pulse diagnosis was completed, the man in black asked with a puzzled look: "May I ask the young master, what is the connection between this woman and the young master?"
Upon hearing this, the man in green probably knew what it meant, but his expression remained unchanged and he answered the question, "Is there any hope?"
The man in black had some embarrassment on his face, "There is help, but..."
"But what? Uncle Wu, just tell me!"
"Sir, you have been cultivating in the mountains for these years, but you know that people in the world are unpredictable. The Luoxia Village was suddenly burned down. You said that there was not a single person in the village, not even an animal. And this woman happened to appear here. , the identity is really suspicious. Didn’t the young master send a letter a few years ago saying that he no longer wanted to get involved in the world’s karma? We are strangers to her, so we’d better not get involved in the world. "
Upon hearing this, the man frowned slightly, "Luoxia Village was suddenly burned down. The reason is still unknown. When I saw the light of fire on the mountain, I immediately sent a message to Muyang City's Peregrine Falcon. At the same time, I quickly went down the mountain to check. When she appeared here alone, I've checked it out and found nothing suspicious. She stayed here for a long time after she appeared. Maybe she knows something.
Besides, even if she is just a passerby, although Luoxia Mountain is not under the jurisdiction of Muyang City, the people in this land are all my brothers and sisters in Beihuang. Although I go to the mountain to practice, I am still the son of the lord of Muyang City and also the son of Beihuang City. How can the people of the wilderness sit back and watch without caring about the safety of the people of the northern wilderness? Besides, I am cultivating in Luoxia Mountain. This is at the foot of Luoxia Mountain. How can I not save him? "
When the man heard this, he seemed to sense that the other party was not angry and assertive. He bowed to the man in green in front of him and said, "Young Master is saying that I didn't think well!"
The man in green smiled handsomely and said, "Uncle Wu, your words are serious. Please arrange medical treatment for her quickly."
"Sir, this woman must have been depressed for a long time and became ill. She suddenly suffered an unknown blow and became extremely angry. In addition, she was probably caught in the rain and damp last night and was exposed to the wind and cold. It can be described as internal and external troubles. The most serious thing is that she has no love in her heart, as if she is seeking death, so she is so anxious that she is in a coma. This is a heart disease. As the saying goes, heart disease requires a heart medicine doctor. Although the young master just used his true energy to stabilize her heart, I am afraid that I can’t do anything with my little moral skills.”
The man in green was also shocked when he heard this, "Muyang City's top medical skills are indeed well-deserved. You and she are strangers, but just by checking her pulse, you can not only diagnose that she has a heart disease, but also that she has no love in her heart and is seeking death." It’s really eye-opening that you can diagnose it.”
The man in black was about to speak, but he saw the man in green suddenly looked serious and raised his hand to signal not to speak.
Then he looked at the villa where the fire was getting smaller and said in a low voice: "I just checked, and there is no life in the sea of fire. When the fire subsides, you can send someone to take a closer look to see if there is anything fishy. Still. If you take this woman back to the city and place her there, you must take good care of her. If she wakes up and still wants to die, ask her why she must die? Then advise her, if she is not afraid of death, how can she be afraid of living? If necessary, call her Let her take good care of herself first, and after she recovers, let her come to Luoxia Mountain to find me."
"Why?"
Seeing the man he called "Uncle Wu" looking at him curiously, the man in green smiled mysteriously, "This girl must have experienced twists and turns and is a person with a story. Besides, I have a fate with her, so let's help her."
"Sir, I can't keep up with your thinking!"
At this time, the person who had been ordered to investigate the situation had appeared in sight. The man in black looked at the man in green in surprise. He finally knew why the other person raised his hand to signal him to stop talking. It turned out that he knew that these people were back.
"There is a destiny in the dark, and it is beyond the control of human beings." The man in green said loudly, put his hands behind his sword, and jumped directly into the air. He put his feet between the trees and flew towards the deep mountain, leaving behind the words in his mouth. "Uncle Wu" and his group looked at his flying figure and exclaimed in surprise.
"Isn't this incredible? The Young City Lord can actually fly up the mountain like this? Mr. Yan, has the Young City Lord's realm greatly increased again?"
The group of people who came back to investigate the situation naturally saw this operation of the man in Tsing Yi. After one of the middle-aged men exclaimed, the group of people all looked at the man in black and asked. The man in black looked at the man in Tsing Yi and disappeared. In the direction of the top of the mountain, he said:
"I don't know whether the young city lord's realm has greatly increased again. However, the art of flying in the air is far beyond the reach of our cultivation. Now the young city lord's cultivation can only be said to be unfathomable. Woolen cloth!"
"Mr. Yan, you are Mr. Yan Ziwu, who has the best medical skills and the pinnacle of martial arts in Muyang City, and is nicknamed Ziwu Medical King. In the past five years, the entire Muyang City, except for the young city lord and the heads of the other two major families, have had the best martial arts skills under you. Apart from those above, even the City Lord is not as good as you. If you are far out of reach, then isn’t there no one in the entire Muyang City who can be more powerful than the Young City Lord?"
"Not just in Muyang City, the young master's technique of stepping on leaves and volleying in the sky is probably unmatched by anyone in the entire Northern Wilderness!"
Hearing what Yan Ziwu said, the group was even more surprised and happy. After all, he was the young lord of Muyang City!
While excited, they all sighed, "Is this the benefit of practicing in the mountains? Listening to what Mr. Yan said, can't it be said that Su Fei, who is known as the number one in Qinggong in the Northern Wilderness and nicknamed Star Picker, can't be compared to him?"
But when Yan Ziwu heard this comparison, he just smiled and said, "Young City Master has performed such a stunt like an eagle flying high in an understatement, how can it be compared to Yu Fei?"
Then he secretly sighed in his heart: Since the young master has already determined to cause trouble in the world, it seems that the young master is expected to come out of the mountain in the near future. The Mu family, which has been squeezed out by the other two major families in the past ten years, and even Muyang City, the weakest among the six cities in the Northern Wasteland, will rise again under the leadership of the young master. "
Seeing everyone cheering and cheering, Yan Ziwu quickly warned not to spread the news outside, because he knew that the young city lord of Muyang City came out of the mountain, and the out-and-out Muyang City people like them knew this news, and of course they cheered.
But there are still some people in the city who don't want to see the young city lord go back! Judging from the young city lord's previous actions, it seems that he found that there are people in this team who do not want to see the young city lord return.
After carefully inspecting the burned-out Luoxia Mountain Manor, Yan Ziwu carried the unconscious man, who had been arranged to be set up in advance, into the carriage that he had sent for in advance. The group of people drove towards Muyang City.
Since there was an unconscious woman lying on the carriage, it was not advisable to rush forward, so Yan Ziwu asked people to go back first to recover and prepare things. When they returned to Yan Ziwu's residence in Muyang City, they had been gone for three days. Several maids were waiting outside the door in advance, and as soon as the carriage arrived, they carried the woman into the house on a stretcher.
