In the early morning, the whole world is still soaked in soft mist, and the moist air moistens everyone's breath. There are a few white clouds in the blue sky. The white and blue blend together, which seems a bit abrupt, but it does not feel awkward. Everything between heaven and earth is filled with a peaceful atmosphere.

Pedestrians running on the ground cannot see the birds flying in the sky, but the traces left by the birds flying across the clouds are announcing to the world that birds have crossed the sky all the time. Then came the chirping and chirping of birds. Declaring to the world: winter is gone and spring is here.

As the saying goes, the weather, people, events, and the sun are all in harmony, and the sun rises at the winter solstice and spring comes again.

The sun gradually rises in the sky, and the blazing sunshine breaks away the fog and shines on every accessible place. The whole world becomes brighter in an instant. It shines on people's cheeks. The joy hidden in people's hearts is beyond words, and the trees and grass are swaying. , everything in the world is singing with all its strength to praise the arrival of this moment.

"Wow wow..."

A cry from a baby resounded across the sky, and the frightened birds in the woods embraced into the embrace of the blue sky.

On the first day of the 10,000th year of the Emperor's calendar, although I don't know how many families had children born into the world, it is certain that the child who made that loud cry must be one of them. He was born in a mansion by the river. With her pink face and a few tears hanging faintly in the corners of her eyes, her whole person was like a delicate jade that people around her were reluctant to touch, as if they were afraid of breaking it if they were not careful. The jade wall is an ingenious workmanship.

"Where is my child? Bring the child here and you all go back! Don't come here again. I think I should go back too." said a woman in white in the room. Her silver-white hair fell down to her waist, her skin was pink, and her cheeks had a slight sickly paleness, making her look even more delicate and truly peerless.

The woman in white gently brushed a few strands of sweat-wet hair behind her ears. Looking at the child with thick eyebrows and big eyes in her arms, she smiled. It was a happy smile that came from her heart. In an instant, The world turned gray and white, and she was the only color. She took out a jade pendant from her waist and gently put it on Shengzi's neck. You could vaguely see the word "night" engraved on it. She opened her lips slightly and said to the child in her arms with a faint smile. :

"He's gone, child. Maybe he will think that I don't know, but I actually know it very well. Maybe my mother will leave soon. Go and find out the news about him. You must live well. If something doesn't happen, you The burden is too heavy. In fact, mother really hopes that you will only look at happiness and not write about sadness. You will not be melancholy for three thousand years in the world. You will not care about how many flowers are blooming. You can only smile and be at ease. You are just a child. It is fine. But You can't. So, kid, don't blame your mother."

Seeing the child nodding in understanding, the woman smiled and looked up at the sky outside the window. She still couldn't hide the loneliness in her eyes. Crystal tears gathered in her eyes, but they did not fall down.

The sky gradually turned yellow, the wind picked up, blowing away the flowers, blowing away the fragrance of the flowers, and breaking the branches. The biting cold wind kept blowing like people running on the streets.

However, God had no good intentions, and raindrops fell soon after. It scratched people's faces, just like a hundred claws scratching the heart, causing pain, except for the bloody scratches.

The sound of the river was loud, and rainwater rose from the back of the mansion and continuously hit the windows. A layer of water mist flowed down along the cracks on the windows. The dusky sky gradually darkened, and the room became filled with a stuffy atmosphere.

At this time, a figure suddenly appeared on the street.

This person was wearing a black bucket, and you couldn't tell what he looked like. You could only tell from his broad shoulders that he was a man. He walked very slowly, and he was already several meters away with just one step.

The strange thing is that people on the street are still busy doing their own things, as if they can't see this person at all.

The rain slowly flowed down all over his body, and his clothes were not stained by the rain. Around him, you could vaguely see a stream of air rippling and rippling, and he moved towards the riverside mansion. Walk away, slowly releasing murderous intent.

The daughter in the mansion seemed to sense his breath, and put the sleeping child in her arms into the wooden cradle. She gently brushed the child's cheek with her slender fingers and said softly:

"My child, I didn't expect this day to come so quickly. I can't beat him. But he won't kill me, just you,"

The woman in white paused for a moment and sighed softly.

"My child, you may die, so I can only send you away. I'm sorry, my child."

After saying that, she looked up in the direction of the man in the black cloak, stood up slowly, and held the small wooden cradle in her arms. A few faint traces of tears could be seen in the corners of her eyes.

"Miss, you can't leave now because I'm here. Oh, miss, please give me the child in your arms."

The man in the black cloak said in a leisurely manner. The figure that was still dozens of meters away suddenly flashed in front of the woman, stretched out his hands, and asked the woman for her child.

The woman in white had a hint of loneliness at the corner of her mouth and mocked: "Great Elder, you sent people to chase him, do you think I don't know? He didn't want to tell me, you sent people to chase him, but now you are coming to get me. My child, what’s wrong? Do you think I’m stupid and naive and have no defense at all?”

The woman in white held the child in one hand, made a finger with one hand, moved her lips, and uttered two words: "The formation begins."

In an instant, a formation suddenly rose from the house, surrounding the great elder. The great elder looked at the formations around him and said to the woman:

"Miss, you are truly worthy of being a genius of our clan. You have only been out for a few years and you have become a lot stronger, but your current strength is still a little bit off."

The woman in white looked at the great elder and said to him: "Great elder, I don't think I can stop you for a long time, but I believe that I can stop you for a while." The woman in white lowered her head and looked at the man in her arms with slightly closed eyes. child. "But this is enough."

After saying that, she turned around and left the house, running towards the river bank.

The great elder looked at the woman's back, and there was a hint of doting in the depths of his eyes, but after only a moment, he restrained this emotion and casually threw a punch at the formation.

Immediately, the light curtain cracked into a small crack. The small crack continued to expand. Finally, with a "click", the light screen cracked. It was just a punch, and it was a random punch. The woman's formation was ineffective.

In an instant, billowing wind and smoke rose into the sky, and dust rose up around the mansion where the woman in white was. The elder, dressed in black, slowly walked out of the wind and sand, without even a trace of dust on his body.

The woman running in front heard the voice coming from behind, and then accelerated her pace and said to the child in her arms:

"My child, you will understand what you are carrying on your shoulders in the future. I have already thought of your name, it will be Ye Weishang."

While talking, the woman also carved two words on the child's hand, and those two words were "Wei Shang".

After a while, the woman stood on the river bank, looking at the rolling river water in front of her, and then turned to look at the great elder who was not far away. Faced with a dilemma, the woman lowered her head and said to Ye Weishang:

"My child, I have to go back, but you can't. I'm sorry, child, don't blame mother."

Immediately, the woman bent down and threw the wooden cradle containing the child into the rolling river. Perhaps feeling her mother's determination, Ye Weishang began to cry. Her cries were overwhelming, overwhelming the sound of the mighty river water. The woman's eyes were filled with tears. How many times did Hong want to bring Ye Weishang back. But she resisted not doing so, her delicate body was trembling slightly.

"Yu'er, you can cry if you want, but you must follow me back to the clan." The elder looked at this scene silently, with a bit of pity and pain in his eyes. I don't know if it was because of the woman or because of Ye Weishang, or both.

The woman took a few deep breaths, calmed down a bit, turned around, looked at the great elder and asked, "Why?"

"Why why?" The great elder was stunned for a moment.

"What on earth did you say that night, and why did what happened next?" the woman asked again.

"You can't know what happened that night, and you shouldn't know." The great elder shook his head and said slowly.

The woman in white looked at the great elder, her eyes gradually becoming firm, "I will investigate clearly."

The woman walked forward without changing her expression: "I want to return to the clan."

The great elder nodded, pretending to be nonchalant and said, "He is still alive."

After listening to the words of the great elder, a trace of joy flashed in the woman's eyes, but her face still pretended to be nonchalant.

Then, the great elder lightly punched forward, and the space suddenly shattered, revealing a void. A golden light appeared in front of them, revealing a long staircase leading to the sky.

In this way, the great elder walked in front, and the woman followed behind, and stepped onto the stairs.

Midway, the woman turned her head and looked at the disappearing world in the distance, silently saying in her heart:

"My child, be careful here. One day you will reach heaven and face the ten realms. By then, you may be qualified to know everything."

Then the woman in white and the great elder disappeared into the void.

⋯⋯

Somewhere in a misty forest. A man in a white robe sat cross-legged on a tree. He suddenly opened his eyes. There was a sharp flash in his eyes, as if through a lot of fog. He looked at the white cloud on the horizon and stretched out a hand as if to touch someone. On his face, the corner of his mouth curled up, and he said lightly:

"Child, come to think of it, you should have been born by now. I think the great elder should have taken Yu'er away by now. I have carried too much, and you should have been left behind by them. I believe you will be qualified one day. To know everything there is to know.”

The man in white robe's low and hoarse voice seemed to numb other people's ears.

"Yu'er, after what I discussed with the Great Elder that night was completed. I'm sorry for you, but I don't regret it. Now I should do what I should do."

Immediately, the man in white robe stood up, the figure flashed and disappeared, and the man disappeared.

⋯⋯

The sky gradually became dark, and cold wind blew. In the monster forest on one side, there was an old man and a girl running in the forest. From time to time, the roars of various monsters could be heard in the forest, adding to the forest. There was a bit of a terrifying atmosphere.

Suddenly, the girl who was running in front stopped, turned around and said to the old man behind her: "Mr. Lin, can you stop following me all the time? I'm here to practice." Then, she stretched out a finger and pointed. Looking at Mr. Lin, "Tell me, you have been following me all the time, how can I practice and consolidate my cultivation."

The girl's cheeks were sculpted and her face was flushed with anxiety, which made her really cute.

This girl's name is Lin Qingwei. She is a genius in Qingzhou City. She is only six years old, but her cultivation has reached the eighth level of body tempering. She came to the Monster Forest to practice to consolidate the realm she just broke through a few days ago.

The Lin family is one of the three major families in Qingzhou City, and they suddenly moved here a few years ago. No one thought that the family that was like beggars back then would become what it is now, in full swing.

As for why they moved their whole family here, the other two major families, the Shen family and the Huang family, have been investigating for a long time, but there is no clue. Even the people who investigated died a few days after returning to the clan. The reason was the number one in Qingzhou City. The doctor didn't find it out.

Hearing what Lin Qingwei said, Mr. Lin's eyes flashed with helplessness. He looked at Lin Qingwei with very doting eyes and said softly:

"Weier, you are the top genius in the clan. You have already broken through the eighth level of body tempering at the age of six. What's more, your father dotes on you so much, and your brother also loves you. When you come out to practice, the head of the family sent me to protect your safety. Don’t worry, I won’t take action until the critical moment.”

I don't know what Mr. Lin suddenly thought of, his pupils shrank suddenly, and there was some hesitation in his eyes, but the young Lin Qingwei did not notice all this.

Lin Qingwei lowered her head slightly, gesticulating back and forth with her hands in the air, and mumbling words, but she couldn't hear clearly what she was saying there, which made Elder Lin dumbfounded. After a while, she put her hands behind her back, and she Said:

"After some consideration by Mr. Lin, I decided to take you to practice, but you must take me to eat three meals."

Lin Qingwei stretched out five fingers. When she realized what she was doing, she hurriedly raised her fingers into three.

The way she talks, if it weren't for her pretty face, you might think of her as an adult.

Mr. Lin nodded silently. A smile immediately appeared on Lin Qingwei's face, and she turned to walk forward. Perhaps she was immersed in the joy of three meals. She walked obviously a little drifting, and did not notice that Mr. Lin behind her was obviously absent-minded.

⋯⋯

Near the river deep in the monster forest, a child was lying in a cradle, his eyes were slightly closed, and a few tears could be seen at the corners of his eyes. A jade pendant hung around his neck, with an inscription engraved on it. A word "night", and in the slightly open palm of his sleeping hand, you can vaguely see the word "Wei Shang".

Ye Weishang, he was the child who was forced to be thrown into the rolling river by his mother.

Perhaps her mother would be so excited that she cried when she saw him. After all, the baby who was less than a day old fell into the rolling river and had a narrow escape.

After a while, Ye Weishang opened his hazy sleepy eyes, blinked his bright eyes, and looked at the starry sky above his head.

Maybe he felt hungry. After a while, he started crying again, his cry loud and clear, spreading wildly in the monster forest.

⋯⋯

In a splendid palace, a man reported something to another man sitting on the main seat and then withdrew.

The man sitting on the main seat lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded to the void and said:

"Second Elder, send someone to look for information about the child. After you find it, hire the temple killers to kill him. The price we can give can be high. But they must have their people cultivated one by one to kill him."

After saying this, a voice came from the void: "Palace Master, isn't it good for us to do this?"

"The so-called loneliness we are experiencing is confusion. We regard the loneliness after experiencing it as growth. Growth is everyone's right, and it is also a journey that each of us must go through. It may be smooth or rugged, with joys and sorrows, and separations. I have lowered the difficulty. If he does this, he will die, which only means that he is not worthy of taking on the responsibility of that clan. For a waste, death is also a kind of relief."

Then, a sigh came from the void, and the voice sounded again:

"I, take your orders."

On the plaque outside the palace door hang three majestic characters - Yushen Temple.
