Touching his sac, Shi Er's eyes showed hesitation and embarrassment.
From the Imperial City to the nearest port city, there is an area of nearly ten thousand miles. Once there, you may not be able to meet the cloud ships coming from Yunlu in the east.
Not only was the money tight, but the long journey was also extremely dangerous.
It is said that there is no peace everywhere in Dashang today. It seems that some aristocratic families are preparing to rebel—
Shaking his head violently, Shi Er threw all these thoughts out of his mind.
Continuing to walk home, he hesitated a little on the way and bought two more white bread meat buns.
I still don’t know what I should do in the future and where I should make a living. But my mother has not eaten meat for several months. How can a sick person survive if he only eats some light porridge every day
But if you do this, you will probably have to be scolded by your mother again.
Shi Er shook his head and smiled helplessly. After a while, he walked into an extremely dirty and smelly alley.
He was in a trance, almost relying on his body's memory as he walked towards his home.
But when Shi Er walked to the door, he was suddenly stunned.
In front of him, he saw a richly dressed young man standing in front of the door of the room.
He was seven or eight years older than him, and the clothes on his body were made of an unknown material and were shiny. He looked even more noble than the young masters from the bachelor's mansion who hired him before.
The face is also square and square, with a smile on it, bright and sunny, but with a bit of evil intention.
He glanced at Shi Er up and down, and then a hint of surprise flashed across the young man's eyes.
"Your name is Shi Er? You live here!"
"This is my home!"
Shi Er was a little confused and confused: "The villain is indeed surnamed Shi. I dare to ask, noble man, you are here, but you want to see me for something?"
Looking past this person, he looked into the room. Shi Er's pupils suddenly froze, and the white meat bun in his hand fell to the ground.
I saw only the bed. A woman's body was lying on her back, extremely quiet. So quiet that there was no sound!
That's his mother—
The only relative in this world, he gave birth to him, raised him, and depended on each other for life!
My mind was like thunder and I was at a loss what to do. It's obviously fine in the early morning, but it only lasts for half a day, and we are separated forever
I felt two rays of warmth on my cheeks. Shi Er wiped it with his hands and realized that he had felt sad before. Already burst into tears.
In fact, I had already thought that my mother might not be able to survive this winter, but I didn't expect it to happen so early.
You shouldn't go to the Bachelor's Mansion today! Or if you come back earlier, you can still see your mother.
He no longer had the intention to pay attention to Mr. Guijie. Shi Er looked dull and walked to the bed and knelt down. Then he stared blankly at his mother's face, silently weeping silently.
The man sheds tears just because it is not the time to feel sad.
The young man in fine clothes sighed when he saw this. Walked behind Shi Er. There was silence for a long time, a full quarter of an hour. After Shi Er calmed down, he spoke again.
"My name is Shi Yue. You can call me uncle!"
"Shi Yue? Uncle?"
Shi Er raised his eyebrows in surprise and turned away. Then Ruo realized something: "Are you from the Huangjing Shi family?"
Although his tone was questioning, his eyes were determined. There was also a hint of alienation in the words.
"What a smart boy!"
Shi Yue chuckled: "It is the Shi family, your father's name is Shi Tao, he is my eldest brother!"
He stretched out his hand to touch Shi Er's head. But seeing this young man, he subconsciously avoided it. Shi Yue was startled, then laughed: "Don't blame your father. The matter between you mother and son happened for a reason! It was your mother who took the initiative to contact you today, and your third uncle only knew that you were here."
Shi Er remained silent and said nothing.
Shi Yue frowned slightly, and then explained calmly: "Eldest brother actually had a deep affection for your mother in the past. It's a pity that your mother was born in the Jingyin Sect, one of the three sects and six sects of Cangsheng Dao. Inadvertently, her identity It was known to others. Your mother didn’t want to involve her brother, so she ran away. Forget it. I’m afraid you won’t understand even if I tell you this!”
Shaking his head, Shi Yue stroked Shi Er's head again, but this time the boy did not avoid it.
"In short, Shi Er, you just need to know that your father did not let him down back then, and he had no choice but to do so! You are now helpless and cannot be alone. Since your mother entrusted her to me, it doesn't matter whether you want it or not. I, Shi Yue, will not sit back and watch my Shi family’s blood wander outside! From now on, you will be a member of my Shi family, my Shi Yue’s nephew.”
The voice was categorical and there was no room for rejection.
Shi Er pondered for a moment, but did not reply. Instead, he turned his head and looked at his mother's body on the bed.
"Shi Er needs to bury his mother first!"
There is a sadness in my heart, if there is no one behind me. He couldn't even afford the money for his mother's burial.
Shi Yue looked at it and smiled happily. This nephew's thoughts are pure and filial, which makes people like him very much.
But I don’t know what my martial arts qualifications are? The Shi family is a general and has led the army for generations, and there is no one who does not practice martial arts.
Since Shi Er entered this door, he was naturally no exception.
A trace of Qi came from the heavenly spirit. It flowed through the limbs and bones, and just a moment later, Shi Yue's face was full of strange colors.
Is this a fighting body? Xuanling treasure body
After being stunned for a moment, Shi Yue finally woke up and took his hand back.
"Shi Er, you are the second in the third generation of my Shi family. But you can't be named after this. Today, my uncle will overtake me. From now on, you can be called Shi Wuji -"
Shi Er paused for a moment, then nodded indifferently.
In fact, even if Shi Yue didn't say it, he didn't plan to use Shi Er's name again. He likes the name Wuji!
※ ※ ※ ※
Just seven days later, the imperial capital was seven hundred miles away.
In a lush mountain stream, there is a solitary tomb carved out of fine marble.
The soul-calling flags fluttered and cigarette smoke curled up. Shi Wuji looked solemn and knelt quietly in front of the grave. Shi Yue, on the other hand, stood aside with his hands behind his hands.
"Now the first seven days have passed! Originally, according to the rules of a famous family, one still needs to observe filial piety for at least one year. However, my uncle has something important to do now, and he has no time to wait for you. Even your mother, I'm afraid she doesn't want you to be in vain in front of his tomb. It’s time-consuming. I don’t know what your plans are, but are you willing to go with your uncle?”
Shi Wuji frowned, with a strange look in his eyes, and glanced to the side without answering.
I thought to myself, is there still a choice
Shi Yue also laughed: "It's true, no matter whether you agree with Wuji or not, my uncle will take you away."
As soon as he said these words, he was already flying into the air. A burst of real power forcibly pulled Shi Wuji into the air and headed east.
Flying so fast, it can cover hundreds of miles in a moment. Shi Wuji was confused and couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you going back to Shi's house?"
The Shi family in Imperial City should be in the west!
"You can't go back now! Let's talk about it later!"
Shi Yue shook his head, and then looked leisurely at the far east land: "Wuji, have you ever heard of Zong Shou?"
Shi Wuji nodded lightly without even thinking about it: "Yes! I heard that he is the best in the world of swordsmanship, the Lord of Donglin, and the Blood Sword Demon Lord!"
The name of the Blood Sword Demon King is now in the imperial capital. Anyone who is interested in martial arts and spiritual methods, who has never heard of it
This man is the leader of a country. It is said that he is the most powerful swordsman in the world and unbeatable.
Just a month ago, there were dozens of famous sects in the east, and they somehow managed to annoy the king. Just one person and one sword can wipe them all out.
It is said that rivers of blood flowed in those days, and millions of people were killed. He was a figure even more cruel than the devil.
The old gentleman from the Bachelor's Mansion said that this man was crazy and deviant.
However, there are also people who praise him as a benevolent king who is rare in the world, with great talent and great strategy.
Speaking of which, if Shi Yue hadn't come to the door and taken him away by force. Then he, Shi Er, would probably go to Qiantian Mountain to see if he could really obtain the cultivation skills. Serving under that demon king—
If he can practice martial arts and stand out, he won't care whether that Zong Shou is a benevolent king or a demon lord.
But this heart sank slightly. What's the point of not being able to go back to Shi's house
"This person is not the best in the world, but he is invincible in this world!"
Shi Yue seemed unaware and shook his head to correct it. There was a fiery color in his eyes.
"Then Wuji, do you know that King Xiang Chu and King Ran Wu were kings thousands of years ago? This Blood Sword Demon Lord is the only one who can rival these overlords in the Cloud Realm for thousands of years!"
Shi Wuji had also heard several old masters talk about history, so naturally he would not be unaware of the names of Wang Ran and Wang Wang. They were all heroes, once invincible.
But I still don't understand, what is the difference between the word "invincible" and "number one in the world"
Thoughts were swirling in his mind, and he temporarily suppressed all the doubts in his mind.
"Why are you mentioning this person? But you have a relationship with this Blood Sword Demon Lord? Are you going to visit?"
He still refused to call him uncle because he felt shy and unwilling.
"No friendship! I, Shi Yue, owe him once! The behavior of this demon king is really heartbreaking! It's a pity that this Qian Tianshan is destined to be the enemy of my Shi family in the future!"
Shi Yue laughed loudly: "Your uncle is going east this time because he wants to use these fists to see him again! And also to repay him the favor. It is said that this man is about to overcome the catastrophe. In the past few days, he has recruited millions of people , in just one month, a 900-foot rooftop platform was built. I think the time of disaster will be in the near future! In the Gantian Mountain, most of the heroes have gathered at this time, and the demons are dancing. You must not miss this kind of excitement-"
Overcoming the tribulation
Shi Wuji's heart moved slightly. He heard that martial arts spiritual methods would lead to disaster after reaching the ninth level.
If you successfully overcome the tribulation, you can ascend to immortality, and usually you have to leave the cloud world.
That Heavenly Demon King is ready to ascend? But what about Qian Tianshan
Then Shi Yue asked with a smile: "The day this person will pass the tribulation must be the time of great war. Wuji, would you like to come with me to see this blood sword demon king?"
Shi Wuji only pondered for a moment, then nodded sharply. He couldn't help himself now, and he really wanted to see the number one person in the world -
What the two of them didn't know at this time was that Shi Yue took Shi Wuji with him and left within a moment.
In front of the lonely grave, another figure flashed out. But it was a Taoist in his forties, looking at the place where the two left with a hidden smile.
