It was late at night, and Yang Yu, who was mercilessly hit by reality, was sitting alone in front of the window. It's twelve o'clock in the evening, Yang Yu's parents have already fallen asleep, but Yang Yu can't sleep no matter what.
Looking at the increasingly pale moon, Yang Yu felt endless sorrow in her heart. Yes, today is the blood moon.
Just this afternoon, Qi Zhen went to the field in person to find Yang Yu, and that was probably the case.
"Yang Yu, can you stop for a moment? The clan leader has something to say to you," Qi Zhen said calmly with his hands behind his back.
This was also the first time that Qi Zhen took the initiative, and he was looking for Yang Yu in such a place. Yang Yu was also a little overwhelmed. Yang Yu reacted, first stopped what he was doing, patted the dirt on his body, and then walked quickly He went to Qi Zhen's side and asked, "Master Patriarch, what's the matter?"
Seeing Yang Yu coming over, Qi Zhen didn't dislike it. After patting Yang Yu's clothes, he sat on the bench where Yang Yu usually rested. Seeing that Yang Yu was still standing there respectfully, Qi Zhen took the initiative to invite Yang Yu to sit down.
"Yang Yu, do you know what day it is today?" Seeing Yang Yu sit down, Qi Zhen finally spoke.
"Chief Hui, today should be the blood moon." Yang Yu thought for a moment and then said it with a lag.
"Okay, then do you know why today is the blood moon? Or what does the blood moon represent?" Qi Zhen continued to induce Yang Yu to answer, but there was no trace of joy on his face.
"Um? The blood moon is beautiful." Obviously Yang Yu didn't know what a blood moon was, so he could only answer like this.
"Is it beautiful? Well, let me tell you, the reason why today is the blood moon is because today is a coming-of-age ceremony, and the blood moon represents killing and death." Qi Zhen looked at the sky and said this coldly. talk.
"Coming of age ceremony, killing and death, what is the clan leader doing? Why do you say this?" Yang Yu asked in a low voice. After all, these words made it difficult for him to accept them for a while.
"Yang Yu, I came to you today just to let you know in advance that the blood moon is not a kind of scenery. We don't know why there is a blood moon. I only know that the blood moon may be the punishment of the useless people in Tianyun Continent. Let's do it!" At this point, Qi Zhen stopped deliberately. He wanted to see what Yang Yu looked like now, but Yang Yu was not afraid now, just a deep doubt.
"The night of the blood moon is a nightmare for young people who have just turned eighteen. The blood moon will mercilessly harvest the spiritual masters who are older than eighteen years old. If the spiritual master's cultivation level cannot exceed level five, when the blood moon After disappearing, they will lose their lives, and then even their bodies will disappear." Qi Zhen said this with a heavy face. Any adult in the clan knows about this matter, but this matter has also been classified as a family matter. The number one taboo.
No adult is allowed to tell minors about the blood moon, otherwise they will be kicked out of the Qi family and all family resources will be confiscated. This rule applies to the entire Wangxiang Town. This is also agreed by the four major families in Wangxiang Town. matter.
Therefore, when Yang Yu saw something like the blood moon for the first time, he regarded it as a beautiful spectacle.
"Clan, clan leader, you are saying that Blood Moon will harvest the spiritual masters whose cultivation level is lower than the level five spiritual masters." Yang Yu's expression finally turned into fear.
Seeing Yang Yu's expression, Qi Zhen could only stroke his back helplessly. He felt that Yang Yu was very strong, and he felt that Yang Yu needed to know the direction of his struggle.
"Yes, you still have one year to practice. What I'm telling you now is not to make you give up, but to let you control your own destiny. I don't want to see you die drunk on Lansheng wine," Qi Zhen said with a look on his face Speaking seriously, Qi Zhen kept stroking Yang Yu's back, slowly infiltrating spiritual power to improve Yang Yu's mood.
"Clan leader, thank you. I'm fine. I know what I should do in the future." As he spoke, Yang Yu straightened up his back.
Seeing that Yang Yu regained his composure, Qi Zhen nodded gently, "If Yang Yu needs anything in the future, please come to me at the patriarch's house. After all, we will go to pick up Bei'er together in three years." After two days of walking, He shook his head in unison, turned his head slightly and said.
"Okay, clan leader, don't worry!" Yang Yu also nodded in agreement.
And this is what Yang Yu experienced today. This is the first time Yang Yu has been so sad since he was a child. He never thought that one day, he would lose his life because of his low cultivation level.
"Tianyun Continent, you are so cruel. We poor people can't cultivate in the first place, and you still want to take away our lives!", looking at the faint red moon, Yang Yu said to himself.
The next day, when the warm sunshine shone into Yang Yu's room again, Yang Yu, who had slept for five hours, got up as scheduled.
Today he did not go farming, but wandered around the family. More specifically, he was looking for adults he knew. When Yang Yu passed by their houses, all the doors were closed. Yang Yu could probably guess the meaning. With a slight sigh, Yang Yu walked silently to his own field.
Yang Yu understands very well that cultivation is not something that can be achieved overnight, and things like physique will not change because of his excessive diligence. Again, even if it means death, as long as he has a clear conscience.
Yang Yu, who saw Xue Yue clearly, did not give up on practicing because of this, nor did he deliberately work hard because of this. He knew that he had done his best.
In this way, the days passed one after another, and in the blink of an eye, another year almost passed, eleven months to be precise.
For nearly a year, Yang Yu still persisted in practicing every day, but no matter what, the spiritual power beads in his Dantian could not be formed, so even after so long, Yang Yu was still a first-level spiritual master.
Yang Yu's hard training gradually turned from admiration in the eyes of others to ridicule. They laughed at Yang Yu for not overestimating his abilities, and they laughed at Yang Yu's fake top-level physique with full attributes, but Yang Yu never cared about these things. The only thing that could affect him might be that he had fewer so-called friends, and this was almost a year During the time, Yang Yu never took the initiative to go to the patriarch's mansion once.
And just today, before Yang Yu got up, a scout from the clan came to the house. The scout handed Yang Yu's parents a letter, and then left without saying anything. The two people who punched in the envelope, His face was very ugly.
The woman almost cried, but the man suppressed his emotions and comforted the woman. It took a long time for the two of them to relax.
Wiping away the tears from her eyes, the woman shouted softly to Yang Yu's room, "Yang Yu, get up quickly and clean up. Today we have to go to the clan mansion."
Yang Yu, who was always alert, immediately packed up her clothes and walked out when she heard her mother's call. When Yang Yu came out, his parents had already changed their clothes. Yang Yu was surprised. He didn't know why his parents woke him up so early today.
At dawn, Yang Yu's family of three walked towards the patriarch's mansion. On the way, Yang Yu's parents cared about Yang Yu extremely much. Even Qi, who had been particularly harsh on Yang Yu since childhood, his father's love was reflected in his eyes.
Along the way, Yang Yu also met many families like them, and they all had one thing in common. That is, these people are all those who awakened in the same group as Yang Yu, and they are all young people who cannot break through the fifth-level spiritual skills no matter how they practice. Another thing is the same. The love their parents showed their children today has exceeded usual.
Seeing these people along the way, Yang Yu also knew that this journey was not an easy one. He knew that the clan leader would not harm them, but a bad feeling arose spontaneously.
The group of people walked closer and closer to the patriarch's mansion, and met more and more people along the way. That was because everyone had received the same letter and wanted to go to the same place.
Soon a group of people came to the back of the Patriarch's Mansion. Yes, this was the back door of the Patriarch's Mansion, because there were very few people coming from the back door of the Patriarch's Mansion.
When everyone walked into the Patriarch's Mansion, they saw Qi Zhen Qiwei and a group of elders. They did not speak, either sitting on chairs or pacing back and forth, just waiting for everyone to arrive.
When everyone came in, Qiwei closed the door and asked them to line up as if they were going to enter a room one by one.
