Winter is always long and cruel...
Countless children froze to death in the ice and snow...
And he may be lucky!
He was selected and brought to a place called Wufeng, where there were many young men of his age.
They sweat profusely in the training room, fight in the mud, and survive under poison.
Every month there is an assessment, and there are always a few people missing...
And he also joined here. He was not adaptable at first, but later fought and won again and again...
Wu Feng's training is cruel, survival of the fittest. Companions who may have slept in the same place yesterday will be fighting each other with swords the next day.
Some children hold on to their longing, thinking that they can have enough to eat by joining Wufeng, but he is different. From the beginning, he wanted to find out the truth about his mother's murder and avenge his mother, so he sold himself out and was selected by Wufeng.
Only when he becomes stronger can he avenge his mother!
The young man's bloody nature is easily aroused. He suffers major and minor injuries every day and clumsily bandages himself.
"You are so useless, and you will still leave hidden wounds. Apply this and you will be healed tomorrow." The young man was very delicate, with a pale face, but his eyes were dark, and he could not get rid of the gloom. He was holding a Porcelain bottle.
He had seen this young man. On the first day after entering Wufeng, the young man stood in the corner, watching them quietly, as if laughing at their ignorance.
He took the porcelain vase and threw it to him immediately: "I dare not accept it if you are being courteous for nothing. What if it is poisonous?"
The young man curled his lips and smiled, pouring the medicine into his mouth. He took the medicine for treating trauma as he was told.
This shocked Jackdaw Wu, who had not seen much of the world at that time. He grabbed the medicine bottle and said, "You are crazy. Even if it is not poisonous, this is not edible."
"I know whether I can take my own medicine." The boy's voice was soft and soft. Maybe he had just taken the medicine, and his voice was slightly hoarse.
"Even if it's not poisonous, why are you giving me this? Don't tell me you want to be friends with me? There are no friends here!" There are only competitors who will confront each other with swords in the next moment!
"Tomorrow is the martial arts test. After the martial arts test, there will be the literary test. I guess you don't want to be locked up in a dark room!"
"What do you mean?"
"I can help you, but I also need you, help me!"
"make a deal!"
One afternoon, he couldn't find the boy, and finally found him in that familiar corner...
The young man's wrist was wrapped with gauze and his lips were pale. When he saw him coming, he raised his head and smiled softly: "You are here. If you don't come, no one will give you the answer next time."
After the young man finished speaking, his body fell down. He quickly caught it and looked at the gauze on his hand. Blood was drawn again!
The boy's wrist injury is not getting better!
"It took me so long to wake up. What a waste. You are hiding behind me for the martial arts test in two days." The young man heard this sentence just after he woke up. He curled his lips and said sarcastically: "If I am a waste, then you are the one who doesn't You're a reckless man with a long brain, and you haven't learned anything about his methods! With such a huge weakness, you will fall on it sooner or later!"
"That's better than a loser like you!"
"If you had your blood collected every month, I'm afraid you would be no better than me!"
"..."
He also gradually understood why the boy was so stunted. Anyone who had been tortured by Gu bugs since he was seven or eight years old and had to undergo blood collection every other month would still be weaker than ordinary people no matter how he was raised. !
The two worked together in Wufeng, fought their way out of the siege, and eventually became Jackdaw Wu and Jackdaw Shi...
Although Jackdaw Shi is not very good at martial arts, he is very smart, so the leader arranged for Han Yi Ke to be under his command to protect his safety.
Of course, there is one thing that Jackdaw Wu may not have known all along. In fact, Jackdaw Pickup has always been Jackdaw Pickup...
He never had to take part in a martial arts test!
"What about your mother's revenge? Have you avenged it?" Gong Yaozheng asked curiously after finishing the last melon seed.
"Revenge! The person who killed my mother was the previous Jackdaw Wu. After I killed him, I had my revenge! However, I was also controlled by the Gu of the New Moon and could not leave Wu Feng... It must be my mother's spirit in heaven that allowed me to meet the second young lady!" When mentioning his mother, Jackdaw Wu burst into tears...
Gong Yaozheng knew that Jackdaw Wu was sad, so he didn't say anything and just looked at him quietly.
Let him cry for a while and then...
"Okay, help me ask Jackdaw Shi, how is the real Shangguan Qian?" Gong Yaozheng interrupted Jackdaw Wu's vulnerability.
Jackdaw Wu:......
"That trash said that Sui Jin had her blood collected recently and is a little weak. He will try his best to help her get well. Eh? Why Sui Jin?" Jackdaw Wu later asked the question, but did not notice the two in front of him. The lady's eyes were already slightly red.
The moment Gong Yaozheng heard about Sui Jin, his suspicion was confirmed. What happened to Sui Jin? Why are you here?
Sure enough, her best friend who couldn't take care of herself couldn't take care of herself without her!
She is so afraid of pain, and now her blood is being collected...
When she thought of this, she felt mixed feelings in her heart. It seemed that there were some things that required her to speed up.
"When is the next blood collection?"
"One month later!"
"There won't be a next time!" Gong Yaozheng gritted his teeth and said, one month is enough!
Jackdaw Wu didn't know why, but he felt that the second lady was angry now because of Sui Jin?
Then he has to let Jackdaw Shi be better to Sui Jin, even better!
Gong Yao Zheng drank three cups of tea angrily before he calmed down: "Tell Jackdaw Shi to find a way to send a message to Shangguan Qian and ask her to add two taels of blood to the decoction when she is decoction!"
"okay!"
…
In the library of the Presbytery...
Gong Yuanzheng is recording the recipe for a new poison...
The pages of the book are blown by the wind, and when you turn a page, you will cry blood. It is cold in nature and non-toxic. It is taboo for people with old wounds. If you take it for a long time, it will invade the lungs and destroy the five internal organs. The wounds will be difficult to heal after coughing up blood for the first time...
Gong Yuanzheng turned back the page of the book, dipped it in ink, and completed the poisonous prescription of Huangquanli on the second page... As he turned the page, he saw another poisonous prescription, Immortal Hidden Worry, colorless, tasteless, ignorant, and Baicao When the two ingredients complement each other, they can become chronic and highly toxic. The poison can penetrate into the lungs and cause blood to seal the throat!
The young man is writing with his pen in hand, his hair hanging down, and his expression serious, creating a picture of his own in the library...
…
In the Feather Palace,
Gong Ziyu and Jin Fan drew their swords at each other, fighting fiercely with the flash of swords and shadows.
Jin Fan was afraid of hurting his master, so he backed down step by step. Finally, Gong Ziyu put the knife on his neck. He couldn't help but swallow, his Adam's apple rolled, and he looked down at the knife.
The two were in a stalemate like this, and finally, Gong Ziyu was defeated. The knife was too heavy and his hand was tired: "Can you bear to watch me die? What on earth do you know and can't you tell me?"
Jin Fan vowed to die, could not open his mouth, closed his eyes, and looked as if he wanted to kill or behead him.
Gong Ziyu sighed and put down the knife: "You are my Green Jade Attendant. You know that you don't tell me anything. What's going on with you?"
"Young Master, it's not that I won't tell you, it's that I really can't tell you. Even if you force me to death, I won't tell you." Jin Fan looked hopeless.
"The three-domain trial in the back mountain is very dangerous. Even if you don't tell me now, as my Green Jade Attendant, you must tell me when you go with me. If you tell me sooner or later, you will tell me first. Be mentally prepared." Gong Ziyu frowned, with a helpless tone.
"Sir, I'm afraid I can't accompany you to these three domain trials. You have to come by yourself. I can only tell you that the first domain is the Snow Palace in the back mountain. It's very cold there, so bring more clothes."
Gong Ziyu:......
Back Mountain is located in the hinterland of Jiuchen Valley, isolated from the world and shrouded in clouds and mist...
All kinds of plants are flourishing, and there are countless poisonous and non-toxic exotic herbs, and the poisonous miasma in the valley comes from this...
In the ancient forest, ancient trees that had lived for who knows how many years rose from the ground and towered into the clouds. The tree crown is lush and airtight, and the entire ancient forest is filled with a calm and ancient atmosphere. A faint halo shines through the cracks in the trees and shines on the fallen leaves on the ground, revealing the dusty light...
And on the top of the mountain above the ancient forest is the Snow Palace, which is covered with snow all year round...
Xue Chongzi had gray-blue hair, and the hair behind him was loosely tied up with a white hair tie. At this moment, he looked at the playboy who came to his snow palace to have tea and said indifferently: "The playboy is not staying in the flower palace. Come here." What does Snow Palace do?”
At this time, the playboy is not dressed as a young man, but is wearing a luxurious Xuanyi. He is holding a cup of tea in his hand and blowing it. His eyebrows are heroic, his appearance is handsome and free and easy, and his three-dimensional facial features are vaguely a bit... Partially childish, with a pine-like posture.
He leaned over and put the tea cup on the table, looked at Xuezhongzi, and was a little curious: "Aren't you tired from holding it like this every day?"
Xue Chongzi didn't say anything, just poured the cup of tea and looked up at him.
The playboy sat down: "Yesterday's fireworks were beautiful, weren't they? I made them!"
Xue Chongzi's eyes flashed slightly and he said calmly: "Instead of focusing on the fireworks, why not study more on knife making? Elder Hua has high expectations for you."
"Tch, my old man only scolds me for being stupid. I don't see what he expects from me. But if these fireworks are made into weapons, will they be very powerful?" The playboy's eyes were slightly bright. He had heard about Shang before. The eldest lady Zishang in the palace is studying gunpowder.
"You can try it yourself. You came here to chat with me, right?" Xuezhongzi frowned slightly, and a little cinnabar peeked out from his bangs between his eyebrows.
"Of course not. My old man asked me to inform you that tomorrow evening, Gong Ziyu from Yu Palace will come to participate in the Three Realms Trial. Let you prepare." The playboy went up and fiddled with Xue Chongzi's bangs. Earning an eye roll from him.
"The news has been brought, you can go!" Xue Chongzi said to see the guest off, stood up and walked to the inner room of the Snow Palace.
The handsome man suddenly felt bored and looked at the secret passage leading to the front mountain. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly. He wondered what the second lady was doing now.
Why not go to her to discuss your ideas?
…
In the Feather Palace,
As soon as Jin Fan finished speaking...
Yun Weishan pushed the door in carrying the box and cage prepared for Gong Ziyu.
Gong Ziyu hurriedly took it, but was not ready. His hands dropped and he was slightly surprised: "Why is it so heavy?"
"The weather is cold. I heard from Sister Zishang that the young master has been afraid of the cold since he was a child, so he has prepared some heavy clothes in case of emergencies." Yun Weishan spoke softly and opened the box for Gong Ziyu to check.
"Miss Yun is so considerate. I just said I would bring thick clothes, and now I'm ready." Jin Fan couldn't help but sigh.
Yun Weishan smiled shyly: "Guard Jin, please don't make fun of me. Since I am staying in the palace as a servant now, this is what I should do."
"From now on, let the servants do this. When you are here with me, you are not just a servant, but..." Gong Ziyu stood up, looked down at Yun Weishan, the tips of his ears were slightly red.
Yun Weishan was slightly stunned, waiting for Gong Ziyu's words...
"Sir, there is still wine here!" Jin Fan interrupted in a puzzled manner and took out the wine from the box.
Yun Weishan explained: "This is not an ordinary wine. It is a medicinal wine that I asked the second lady to help me prepare. It can dispel cold and ward off dampness."
"The second sister matched it?" Gong Ziyu took the medicinal wine and smelled it, the aroma of the wine overflowed.
Gong Yaozheng, who had no idea: I deserve it?
"Well, I wonder when the young master will set off?" Yun Weishan asked.
"Tomorrow, after the sword-wielding succession ceremony, if you ask me, I should go today instead of attending any ceremony!" Gong Ziyu said angrily.
"Young Master is joking. I feel that time is a bit tight tomorrow. Why don't I come with you so that I can take care of him!" Yun Weishan took the opportunity to express his thoughts.
"I'm afraid that's not possible. Those who participate in the trial can only bring their own personal green jade attendant. Of course, my personal green jade attendant will not accompany me!" Gong Ziyu said and glared at Jin Fan.
Jin Fan lowered his head and touched his nose, not daring to look at him.
Disappointment flashed in Yun Weishan's eyes, but she still told him to be careful alone. She would wait for his return in Yu Palace.
Hearing this, Gong Ziyu's heart skipped a beat, and he was so excited that he would definitely come back with all his hair and tail.
And in Zheng Palace...
Gong Yaozheng looked helpless...
"You go to Sister Zishang about this. What are you doing to me? And you sneaked out again. Aren't you afraid of breaking your legs with a sword?" Gong Yaozheng looked at the new Xiao Hei in front of him, and then looked at him again. Open window.
This guy still jumped in through the window...
"There are specialties in the arts. I came to you to ask you to help me design a prototype of a weapon." The playboy sat down, poured a cup of tea, and took a sip.
Coming from the back mountain, I was still a little tired!
Gong Yaozheng thought for a while: "What do you want?"
The playboy gestured: "Like this? No, like this... Oh, if I knew, why would I come to you?"
Gong Yaozheng thought for a while, drew a picture of a pistol with a fine drawing, blew it, and handed it to him: "Is this like this?"
Young Master's eyes lit up, but then he wondered: "Isn't this a little too small? It can't hold gunpowder!"
Gong Yaozheng thought about it for a while. After all, his technology was limited and he probably couldn't make a pistol now. Moreover, he didn't know the details, so he had to rely on Xiao Hei to research it himself.
He picked up the pen again and drew the pattern of mountain destruction in the play: "Where is this?"
Playboy came over, looked at the patterns on the table, and grabbed Gong Yaozheng's hand: "You are simply a genius!"
Gong Yaozheng took his hand out: "Ahem, don't get excited. I'll try to draw some details for you, but you have to rely on yourself later. You know, I'm good at this..."
Playboy said, I understand!
Gong Yaozheng:......
Every other line is like a mountain!
"Sister Zishang happened to be researching this recently. You can go to her to discuss it. You may make new discoveries." Gong Yaozheng completed the drawing and handed it to Hua Gong.
She still fully supports Xiao Hei's research. If one day Xiao Hei can make a cannon, she will directly drive the cannon and blow up Wu Feng!
Young Master Hua took the drawing and said, "Thank you for your kindness. If you have anything to do in the future, just ask me. I'm leaving first!"
Gong Yaozheng waved his hand, indicating that he could leave, and then...
There was a sound outside the window. Gong Yaozheng looked at the closed door, then at the shivering window, and fell silent...
In fact, no one will say anything to you when you walk in!
Just as I was thinking about it, the door was opened...
Gong Yuanzheng walked in: "Sister, what are you looking at?"
Gong Yuanzheng followed Gong Yuanzheng's gaze and looked at the window, then walked over and closed it: "You're not so lazy that you don't even want to close the window, are you?"
Gong Yaozheng:......
"Back from the Corner Palace?"
"Back from the Presbytery, sister, tomorrow's sword-holding succession ceremony..."
